The Treasurer’s Office will be closed Thursday from 12:00 to 1:00 p.m. for staff training. No business will be transacted as the customer service windows will be closed during this time. Customers wishing to use drop off payments can use the secure drop box, which has been relocated from Fourth Street to its new, permanent location in the parking lot behind city hall.
Meeting virtually Thursday at 1 p.m., the Planning Commission continues work to update the city’s zoning laws, which were adopted in the 1950s and have not been significantly updated since the 1970s. At this meeting, the commission will consider which zoning districts should permit docks and what the front setback requirement should be in the Central Business District. The commission will also plan a public open house concerning the proposed zoning ordinance, currently scheduled for November 17.
