Norfolk City Council: 2/15/11

By Tommy Smigiel

The informal agenda offers some items of interest for our citizens this week.

  • Presentation of the FY2010 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report and KPMG External Auditors FY2010 Independent Auditor’s Report
  • Update on Mid-Town Office Tower
  • Update on Real Estate Assessments
  • Status Review of Light Rail Construction

Will the KPMG Audit Report reveal anything interesting?  Is there anything left to discuss on the Mid-Town Office Tower after a long closed session debate last week?  How much will assessments drop this year?  How much will it impact our budget?  Will we get an end date for Light Rail construction?  Inquiring minds want to know.

R-8 (Mid-Town Office Tower) on the formal agenda, will draw an unusually large crowd for a day meeting.  Click here to read the ordinance language recommending amendments to the original contract.  You can read the guest post from Louis Eisenberg below, to get a recap of how the special Town Hall Meeting went this morning.  Thank you to Councilman Protogyrou and Councilwoman Williams for sponsoring this meeting with me.  Thank you to all of our citizens who came out to voice their opinions.  It was nice to see so many new faces getting engaged in our local government.
