Tonight's meeting and....

Just a reminder about tonight's special meeting of Columbia Borough Council at 7 p.m.
The agenda includes possible approval of the borough's Act 537, dealing with the possibility of a new waste water treatment plant, which will include a major increase in sewer rates.
Also, I have learned another part of the growing agenda will deal with the possible sale/lease by the borough of land currently owed by Norfolk Southern near River Park.
Most likely with all special meetings, citizen comment will be limited to agenda items only.

Here is another thought about our council meetings.
Ever wonder what can be discussed at executive sessions? Governments can hold executive sessions to discuss legal, personnel and land acquisition matters. But how many times have residents gone to council committee meetings and two weeks later an item shows up on the agenda that never went through the committee structure? Well, perhaps these type items are being discussed during the personnel committee meetings, which the public can't attend. Just thinking out loud!
