Public Comments:

Many residents questioned the Mayor and Council on the property revaluations to commence soon.  The revaluation process is expected to be completed in 2006.  For more information, please see the following link:

City to refigure property values

Another resident questioned the format of the City Council docket and suggested that the resolutions be for "detailed".

One complained that a Zoning Board meeting was accidentally scheduled on Roshashana. 

The flooding under the River St. Trestle was also addressed.  For more on this, see the following link.

Trestle is higher, but not any drier

A Council candidate questioned the city the ambulance expenditure (see above); sewage concerns near River Street and other issues.
