Council Resumes Schedule
UPDATE: Checking back at 1 a.m., the agenda is posted. Click here to view. However, it appears that individual resolutions and ordinances have not yet been updated. Thanks to Rashid for looking into this matter despite heavy election duties!!
The City Council will hold an agenda session tonight at 7:30 p.m. in City Hall library, 515 Watchung Ave., but no advance information was available Sunday.
The listing on Councilman Rashid Burney's blog was labeled Sept. 8, but somehow it turned out to be the Aug. 11 agenda. The city web site did not have the Sept. 8 agenda either.
Between the Aug. 18 regular meeting and now, the council somewhat inexplicably skipped an agenda-fixing session scheduled for Aug. 25 and a regular meeting on Sept. 2, by order of Council President Harold Gibson.
If Monday's agenda is available at City Hall during business hours, Plaintalker will try to give a heads-up on major items.
Most likely the Save Muhlenberg/Restore Muhlenberg activists will be out in force, as Wednesday is the deadline to file an appeal of state Health Commissioner Heather Howard's approval of the hospital's certificate of need for closure. The Aug. 26 community forum at which many of the activists spoke happened to be on Channel 74 Sunday, although it was not on the schedule posted on the city web site. So far, city officials have not agreed to file an appeal. Meanwhile, the hospital has surrendered its license to the state.
