Meeting mavens will have their pick next week.

The City Council meets at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday in City Hall Library, while the Board of Education meets at 7 p.m. in the Plainfield High School Library.

The Zoning Board of Adjustment meets 7 p.m. Wednesday in City Hall Library and the Planning Board meets at 8 p.m. Thursday in City Hall Library.

Topics for these meetings are not known right now. Usually Board of Education agendas are available in the Plainfield Public Library on the weekend before the meeting. Agendas for the council can be picked up at the City Clerk’s office the day of the meeting. Zoning and Planning agendas can be obtained in the Planning office on the second floor of City Hall.

A lot of important decisions will be made in 2007. News reports can only convey the gist of what goes on at these meetings or may focus on one of many items discussed. Attending these meetings is always a better way to see elected and appointed officials in action. Block associations and neighborhood groups can send representatives to report back on issues of interest.

Plaintalker tends to get over to City Hall more than to the school board. Anyone who feels inclined to blog about the school board need only log on to http://www.blogger.com/ and get going!
