COMMENTS OF THE MAYOR: Mayor Jenkins stated that there are volunteers interested in starting a Troy Community Band.
COMMENTS OF COUNCIL:
. Mrs. Baker asked about the status of hiring a new parking control officer (interviews are now scheduled) and parking meters downtown (Mr. Wolke commented that this was an item to discuss with the Main Street Director when she'd had time to become familiar with the issue, and Mrs. Walters, Main Street Director, stated she wished to postpone such discussions until the first of the year.)
. Mr. Bretland provided written comments to Council stating his concern that so many pieces of legislation are adopted on the first reading or prior to a third reading, and he asked that this be a subject of discussion at some point.
. Mr. Howe asked about the completion of the new playground equipment in the Municipal Park (should be ready to use in about a week).
There being no further comments, Council adjourned at 8:04 p.m.
