Monday, 7-9 pm at Montgomery County Human Services, 1430 Dekalb. Free home buying basics class sponsored by Genesis Housing. Learn about realtors, agreements of sale, mortgages, inspections and more.

Tuesday, 7 pm at Municipal Hall, Zoning Meeting. The agenda is available at this link, but frankly, if council still hasn't appointed the vacancies yet, you might as well not go because they won't have a quorum and the people asking for variances will get whatever they want by default. In this way, Council allowed Sarah Peck permission to do whatever she wants with 1529 Dekalb, despite the protests of residents in the neighborhood and the rest of us who are thoroughly pissed off that the Historic Erskine Tennis Club will be destroyed, not because of any democratic vote but because people in government didn't do their jobs properly.

Wednesday from 6-7:30 pm at Evangel Assembly of God, 810 E Marshall. First 2016 Town Hall Meeting for the Norristown Police Department. They'll talk about patrol strategy, review crime reduction and have a Q&A session with the officers patrolling your streets. Invite your friends, neighbors and family.

Thursday, February 25, 5-6:30 pm at the Historical Society of Montgomery County (1654 Dekalb), Lisa Minardi will give a lively presentation about the ongoing research and restoration of The Speaker’s House, the historic home of Frederick Muhlenberg in Trappe, PA. The presentation begins at 5 pm with a social gathering and light refreshments. Lectures begin at 5:30 and last for about an hour with time for questions at the end. This program is free and open to the public.
