Meeting Changes and Updates

There have been so many mix-ups in public information lately that I recalled the late Pepsi Charles and looked to see whether Mercury was in retrograde.

Turns out it was, from Sept. 17 to Oct. 9, but believers will have to look elsewhere to explain the more recent glitches, such as town meeting dates and other calendar clashes.

Here's what we think is happening this week:

Tuesday, October 20 - Plainfield League of Women Voters Candidates Forum
It is 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.at the Plainfield Public Library, 800 Park Ave. and will have both Board of Education and City Council candidates. There is still one thing to be fixed on the website, but click to see candidates' information and League rules.

Forum organizers advise attendees to get there at least 15 minutes early. Parking lots are in the front and rear of the building and there is some street parking as well. The election is Nov. 3. If you cannot attend the forum, you can still read the candidates' information online.

Wednesday, October 21 - Plainfield Board of Education

This meeting was rescheduled from Tuesday. It is a business meeting in the Plainfield High School auditorium, 950 Park Ave. See the Oct. 21 agenda here.

Upcoming - Please note the location for the First Ward Town Meeting on Oct. 26 will now be Barlow School. The Third Ward Town meeting has been moved from Oct. 27 to Nov. 12.
