The road work contract was awarded to the lowest bidder, a company the Town has worked with before. Road work will start shortly. The County rejected the Town's request to accelerate the start of mixed waste recycling. Garrett Park will have to wait its turn to recycle magazines and junk mail.

The Council granted a demolition permit jointly to Mrs. Ellingson, the owner, and Mr. Lichtenstein, the buyer of 11120 Kenilworth Avenue. The Council requested that the Historic Preservation and Setback Advisory Committees review the weaknesses in Demolition Ordinance. The Council also reviewed three Town renovation projects.
