Tuesday's City Council Meeting

Doesn't look like a very whiz-bang City Council meeting coming up this Tuesday, Nov. 2 at 7:30 p.m.

- The council will vote on whether to adopt various standard building codes.
- There will be a report on the city's anti-gang efforts. Stats and stuff.
- The city will give notice that there will be a general municipal election on April 12, 2011 and decide whether to contract with "Martin & Chapman Company for Election Consulting Services in an Amount Not to Exceed $38,000." The seats currently held by Mayor Mary Ann Lutz, Mayor Pro Tem Tom Adams, and Councilmember Becky Shevlin will be on the ballot.
