Tomorrow is the second Thursday of the month and hence the day when we have our monthly meeting.
We’ll start the meeting with a candidate forum. Candidates who will participate in the upcoming November 8 council election will talk about themselves and what they want to do once elected or re-elected. We’re expecting to have all 10 candidates running in four districts. District 1 and 3 are contested, where as District 2 and 4 are not. Mayor Andrew Fellows is also running, uncontested. At the end of the forum, you will have opportunities to ask candidates questions.
Following the forum, members will discuss a few new developments on the Greenbelt sector plan. We’ll most likely talk about the community meeting we had in last September 22. The plan has also recently played an interesting role in county’s redistricting boundary plan, where Greenbelt Metro has been placed in District 3 or 4; previously the Metro was part of District 1, which includes North College Park.
Members will also vote on a revised NCPCA by-laws on some changes in the areas of membership and dues structure. I hope to see that passed by members.
See you all tomorrow.
