After finally approving 2017 salaries for city employees, the Plymouth Common Council is now turning its attention to elected officials. A 2017 salary ordinance for Plymouth’s elected officials will be introduced for first reading, during tonight’s common council meeting. It starts at 6:30 p.m., following the Plymouth Board of Works meeting at 6:00 p.m.
During the board of works meeting, proposals are scheduled to be opened for the engineering design for a canoe launch to be constructed at River Park Square. At least a portion of the cost will be covered by a grant from the Indiana Department of Natural Resources Lake and River Enhancement program. Quotes will also be opened for the city’s 2016 crack seal projects, during tonight’s board meeting.
City Engineer Rick Gaul is scheduled to provide an update on plans for improvements to the intersection of Oakhill, Soice, and Michigan, near Webster Elementary School. That project will include the installation of a traffic signal.
Meanwhile, City Attorney Sean Surrisi plans to give an update on an alley that appears to have migrated outside of its right-of-way. Rather than correct the alley itself, the city is planning to simply purchase the additional land. However, the board requested that a title search be conducted on the property, in addition to the necessary land survey.
