No Outcome Yet On Senior Center Tab

The controversy over naming the Senior Center reminds us that there has not yet been any outcome on the issue of condo fees the city must pay for it, nor for a quarter-million dollar debt the developer claims the city owes for fitting out the center.

The last we heard on the subject was a statement from Corporation Counsel Dan Williamson in May that those matters and the state of the Veterans' Center were in arbitration. Since then, Williamson has left the city's in-house legal office behind to become executive director of the Plainfield Municipal Utilities Authority and no new corporation counsel has been named.

Plaintalker's report from May has all the details, so to see it click here.

  1. Bernice,

    The last time I asked, I was again told that this was still in arbitration. I will follow up again with Acting Corporation Counsel Minchello.

  2. Rebecca, Malarkey; I am sure that you can learn who is the arbitrator and what meetings have been held. That can not be "confidential". If you do not get confirmed information perhaps "in arbitration" means to after Jan. 1,2013 when the Council majority allegiance will no longer be for the people.

  3. I agree with Doc--information about who the arbitrator is, what sessions have taken place, and what sessions are scheduled is absolutely NOT confidential!
