Unfinished Business
The advertising for the different City Committees
took-off very well. Just about all the vacancies are
filled.
ITffii VI
New Business
Barb Thompson asked whether the Charter would want to
look into having eight (8) precincts (2 precincts per
Ward) because of the crowded conditions in some of the
voting places. After some discussion, S. Moynihan
stated that there are two ways to go about it: 1) the
Commission can say "yes, go ahead with it", 2) or he
suggested that maybe we need a little more information.
B. Thompson, D. Osberg and S. Moynihan are to work up a
fact sheet with what you need, what you have to do and
this is the process. It was suggested that we look
into other communities about the same size as Hastings
and see what they do.
