The Atlantic City Council will meet Wednesday evening at City Hall. During the session, which begins at 5:30, the Council will act on appointing Jennifer Miller to the Planning and Zoning Commission, and hear a presentation from local developer Don Sonntag, with regard to current and future housing trends, in Atlantic. They’ll also discuss and review a draft of the 5-year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP).

A couple of weeks ago, the City’s Personnel and Finance Committee met and discussed some of the early issues and priorities for the CIP. City Administrator John Lund says the City has many needs and limited resources.  Wednesday’s meeting, will likely include Snyder and Associates Engineer Dave Sturm and Street Superintendent Derald Anderson, who will discuss the condition of the City’s roads, from an engineering and historical perspective.

The Council will review a list of proposed street projects and a survey, to determine where the priorities should be placed in the first CIP draft. There are 17 areas on the list, including (but not limited to): Police equipment/vehicles; Fire equipment/vehicles; Street equipment/vehicles; Wastewater equipment/vehicles; the Schildberg Rec Area; Library; Airport Expansion; Senior Center, and City Hall.

At the conclusion of regular business, there will be a brief, public forum.
