The Atlantic City Council is set to hear a report this week from the Community Development Committee, with regard to Tax Abatement recommendations. The report will be featured as part of the Council’s regular meeting Wednesday evening in their chambers at City Hall, beginning at 5:30-p.m. During the Council’s meeting July 2nd, Mayor Dave Jones asked the Development Committee to discuss whether or not tax abatement should be allowed in the Pine Ridge Subdivision, since it is already receiving tax increment financing.

In other business, the Council will act on: Approving a request by the Atlantic Area Chamber of Commerce for the closing of portions of Chestnut, Walnut and Poplar Streets in the downtown area, for the August 9th AtlanticFest celebration; The awarding of a contract to Snyder and Associates Engineers for the purpose of conducting a Nutrient Reduction Study for the Waste Water Treatment Plan, in conformation with DNR Requirements; and, they’ll decide whether or not to approve the awarding of a contract for Asbestos Removal at 611 Linn Street, to AAA Budget Environmental, Inc.
