Common Council Meeting 02/02/2022 – Alderperson Firkus Plans To Raise Issue Of Proposed Carwash On College Avenue And Kensington Drive

This week is a light week meeting-wise with no committee meetings taking place. However, the Common Council will be meeting 02/02/2022 at 7PM.

Mayor Woodford will be presenting an Appleton Housing Authority appointment. Ariela Rosa is a New York City native who moved to Appleton to finish her undergraduate education at Lawrence University. She has been working as a grant writer since 2016.

The Council will also receive a Covid-19 Update.

There are not necessarily a lot of exciting items on the agenda. The items that would have probably prompted the most discussion are not included in this agenda. The brand study was killed in committee, the resolution reallocating those funds was held until the next Finance Committee meeting, and the Intoxicated Bartender Resolution was held in the Safety and Licensing Committee for a month.

The City Plan Commission did vote to approve a special use permit for a car was to be located at the former Applebee’s site on East College Avenue and Kensington Drive. Some residents in the area felt that because there were already 3 carwashes within ½ mile of this location it was unnecessary to add a fourth. Alderperson Brad Firkus (District 3) has indicated in his weekly update that he will raise that issue during the Council meeting.

Other than that, it remains to be seen what items if any will be separated out for individual votes.
