Treasurer Lenore Zelenock's presentation on the Property Tax highlighted this meeting.

Closed captioning is sometimes included when you watch individual agenda items using the LiveAgenda.   The closed caption service is provided by Google for video hosted on YouTube.  It has been in the experimental stages for a year or so.   We noticed occasional meetings being CCed a year or so ago, but it was not consistent. 

YouTube began consistently close captioning our meetings in May.  Some older meetings were close captioned as well, though I don't have a complete list of the enhanced meetings.

Meeting Report by David Gordon

The Planning Commission last night spent nearly an hour reviewing changes to the last 10 pages of the township’s 20-page “Sign Ordinance”. It was the only agenda item.

Planner Paul Lippens will return in two weeks with answers to several questions posed by PC members, mostly dealing with enforcement issues.  

The new ordinance will create a situation where many township signs will “not be in compliance”, but they will be “grandfathered” in and will need to conform to the new ordinance when they are replaced.
