Council Meeting
Monday, Nov. 9, 7 p.m.

The council meets in the Main Council Chambers at 400 Witherspoon St. Residents can also join on Zoom through this link or with webinar ID 854 3418 2333. The council will hold a public hearing on an ordinance that would create a separate charge for redacting footage from police body-worn and in-vehicle cameras when someone requests it as a public record. The council could adopt it after the hearing. Council will also introduce a $1.6 million bond ordinance for remedial work and monitoring at the Princeton Landfill. The money would cover design, permitting, construction and inspection, and up to $1.52 million would come from bonds or notes. A public hearing is set for Nov. 23.

In a related item, the council is expected to reject the bids it received for landfill corrective measures and put the work out to bid again.

Presentations: The council will hear three presentations:

• An Eagle Scout will present a new kiosk built at Rogers Refuge.
• The Princeton Environmental Commission will give a presentation on light pollution.
• Town officials will present a revised scope of work for the North Harrison Street improvement project. The project is partly paid for with a state Department of Transportation Municipal Aid grant for pedestrian safety. A resolution later in the meeting would let the town submit the revised scope to the state.

Residents can speak on items not on the agenda, with a three-minute limit per speaker. In person, use the sign-up sheet at the podium. On Zoom, use the "raise hand" button. By phone, press #9.
