2/27/07 Norwood City Council meeting agenda

Since this Tuesday’s council agenda has four interesting ordinances for introductory readings and isn’t yet published on Norwood City Council Online, we’ve posted it for all us avid council meeting watchers.

Resolution A also caught our eye:

A) RESOLUTION ADOPTING THE CITIES READINESS INITIATIVE (CRI) PLAN, AND DECLARING AN EMERGENCY

According to this website , “The Cities Readiness Initiative (CRI) is a pilot program to aid cities in increasing their capacity to deliver medicines and medical supplies during a large-scale public health emergency such as a bioterrorism attack or a nuclear accident.” This sounds like an excellent idea.

We noted on our visit to Norwood City Council Online that a batch of council meeting minutes for the 11/7/06, 11/14/06, 11/28/06, 12/12/06 and 12/28/06 council meetings appeared on the 1/13/07 agenda for approval. However, none of these has been posted yet. The last published minutes are for the 10/24/06 council meeting. Clerk of Council Brian Mumper has done a spectacular job improving and adding value to Council Online. We just hope whatever difficulty there is can be overcome so the minutes can be brought more up to date in the near future.
