From Deborah Kleckowski:The Planning and Zoning By-Law committee is holding a workshop on the changes to the By-laws on Wednesday May 20, 2009 at 6pm, in Council Chambers. The meeting will be taped.
The workshop is an opportunity to add your comments to By-laws. As many of you are aware, the P&Z Commission has struggled with elections and other matters. It is crucial that a document be developed that clearly addresses procedural matters and standards of professional conduct. I encourage people to attend the workshop and I look forward to hearing input from the public.
On a separate issue, the presentation last Wednesday night at the P&Z meeting was very enlightening! We, as Commissioners, are lay people, and professional development is absolutely critical to ensure we are as educated as possible to properly represent the interest of the City of Middletown and its' residents. Thank you to Commissioner Johnson who arranged the presentation. I look forward to other Commissioners bringing forth ideas for additional workshops and presentations.
The Plan of Development is also in progress. The next meeting is Thursday May 21, 2009 at 6:30pm in the Hubbard Room, Russell Library. The Plan of Conservation and Development is the blueprint for development of the City. It is important that as many people as possible provide their input into the future design of Middletown.
I look forward to seeing many of you on May 20th and May 21. Please do not hesitate to contact me if I can be of assistance: debilee14@hotmail.com
