It’s a good thing that the length of meetings are not always measured by how long the agenda is that goes with them. If they were, Delaware City Council would need to bring their sleeping bags with them on Monday night.
At 7PM Delaware City Council will be considering several measures in its regular meeting. The Council packet which accompanies those pieces of legislation has a whopping 276 pages of information.
Included are approval of a Preliminary Subdivision Plat for Rutherford Acres and Troy Acres considered recently by the Planning Commission, Our story on that proposal can be accessed here:
