Public Hearing March 28 - Next Phase of CONE

Below is wording of the public hearing announcement for CONE found in the Kent County Daily Times, 03/14/07, Page A-3. If you live in the Hopkins Hill, Arnold Road or Tiogue Lake neighborhoods and have concerns about water, flooding, traffic, the environment, child safety or other issues please attend this public hearing to voice your comments and ask questions.

The public hearing will most likely be one agenda item out of several scheduled for that night. This item may be first or it may be last or somewhere in between. The applicant will make their presentation and then the public will be allowed to speak. It is possible that time may run out before the public can comment and the public hearing continued until the next meeting.

Once the official meeting agenda has been published I will post it on this blog. By law it must be available no later than next Monday 03/26.
