Informational Meeting – 4 PM

Presentations on 8th Street Bridge Rehab, Tobacco Free policy, and Ambulance contract extension.

Regular Council Meeting – 7 PM

Item #7, 1st reading, I’m not sure what this is. It looks as though they are selling some city property for about $11K.

Item#8, 1st Reading, Seems after Mayor TenHaken defunct the community development department we have $1.8 Million to hand out to affordable housing.

Item #9, Resolution, Street vacation (not sure where this is at).

Item #12, Resolution, appointment of Shawn Pritchett to Finance Director of the City. I don’t know much about Shawn’s record. But he seems to be pretty squeaky clean (compared to Paul’s last appointment). I have noticed a major piling on though of people from the development community in Paul’s administration (Shawn previously worked as COO of Costello). Expect TIFALICIOUS deals in the coming years.

But on a separate note I found out that the city has brought in a young assistant attorney. I guess the new head city attorney brought her in to help with code enforcement issues and other similar lawsuits against the city. Her specialty is Constitutional Law. I heard she is quite sharp, still don’t have a name.
