So far, no agenda for Monday's meeting has appeared online on the city web site. So here is Plaintalker's take on the meeting.
The part about liquor license renewals could involve anywhere from two to three dozen license renewals, depending how many have met all the requirements. Besides needing to pass a bunch of city inspections, bars and liquor stores must meet all state tax requirements. Each year, some need to follow through later with such details.
Those who don't get renewals by June 30 will need to get day-to-day interim license renewals to continue operating. This is an annual exercise.
The budget transfers might take less time to discuss and approve, although the issue of funding for the Plainfield Public Library may re-emerge. City officials previously resisted the council's notion that the budget transfers could be recast to benefit the library.
As for the joint meeting with the Plainfield Municipal Utilities Authority, no format has been announced. It might be an update on whether City Council's past concerns have been addressed or whether there are more issues.
Plaintalker will attend and report on the council meeting. Still pondering the worth of going to the 1 to 5 p.m. retreat, also at the City Hall Library.

What happened to the possibility of considering Plainfield Public Library as you mentioned last week?
ReplyDelete"Budget transfers may also be on the agenda, as council members questioned why money could not be restored to the Plainfield Public Library rather than to other entities."
Hopefully they do not forget.

Why would anyone want to hold it at the Public Library? That would mean more people could attend. If it's held in the City Hall Library, the max legal capacity is 40.
