MIDDLETOWN MEETING MATTERS
MIDDLETOWN TOWN COUNCIL
When: Monday night.
Where: Middletown Town Hall, 350 East Main Road.
Absent: None.
Of note:
- Applauded members of the Gaudet Middle School boys soccer team, which won a state championship recently. Players received jackets from the Town for their efforts and loud applause from the audience.
- Heard from Easton’s Point residents about plans to put new sidewalk on part of Purgatory Road in the southern end of Town. The proposal is at the 30 percent design stage and the council voted to move the project to the next stage although some questions exist.
- Continued discussion to a future meeting about the School Building Committee’s plans for a $60 million bond because additional information was needed. A make up date was not announced Monday night.
