## Resource

Lexington is sounding the alarm: before you dig anything, make sure you’re safe. After a deadly gas explosion that killed a child and injured two others, the city is demanding property owners vet every contractor — check licenses, insurance, and permits — and always call before you dig. This isn’t just a warning — it’s a lifesaving step. If you’re unsure, contact building official Tom White. Safety starts with you — and your community depends on it.
