Mayor Holds Town Meeting Thursday

Given the fiscal situation he inherited upon taking office on Jan. 1, I hope Mayor Adrian O. Mapp will devote part of his "Mid-Year Update" to describe some of the ways his administration has improved the city's bottom line, including special tax lien sales and re-purposing unused .bond funds for road repairs.

If you plan to attend the Town Meeting (7 to 9 p.m. Thursday at the Senior Center, 400 E. Front St.), you may also want to get an update on the Muhlenberg study or learn more about the status of  negotiations with the city's numerous bargaining units.

Maybe your issue is holdovers on the Plainfield Municipal Utilities Authority or whether the ShotSpotter program is still in effect.

Development seems to be on the rise - perhaps the public can have a quick summary on that topic. And what's going on with the Comcast franchise renewal process?

If your issue is more particular to your neighborhood, you can also sign up to meet with the mayor at one of his regular Wednesday sessions, 6 to 8 p.m. in his City Hall Office.
