City Council, City of Beacon will hold a special meeting on Monday, September 24, 2009 at 7.00 p. m., prior to the scheduled workshop.
The purpose of the meeting is to determine whether any changes to the Main Street Sidewalk contract are required and to vote on any changes, in order to avoid delays in the contracted work and resulting possible financial penalties.
The project includes removal and replacement of trees and in response to community request, the Council at its last meeting authorized the Mayor to appoint an ad hoc committee to do another review of the trees currently marked for replacement. The committee will report back to the Council with their recommendations on the next section of work slated to be done. The Council will then discuss their views and make their decision at the special meeting on Monday.
Other sections of the project will be reviewed by the committee in a timely fashion, with reports to the Council so that any action required can be taken at regular meetings.
