City Council Meeting

Want to really get into the holiday spirit? There's a city council meeting tomorrow night at 7 p.m. Lot of giving going on as the council awards contracts, annexes half a dozen or so areas adjoining the city, and sells off the Eurma C. Haynes Center.

Annexation

This is an interesting annexation proposal. Short Liquors is wanting to open up Blue Fish Liquor and Cigars on Sweets Drive, just off Reed's Station Road. However the owner of that area, according to the proposal, never petitioned the city to change the status of the property from "dry" (its status as part of Carbondale Township to "wet" (the city of Carbondale's status), when the city annexed it in 1999. The city council must officially change the status for Blue Fly to open there.
