Under committee reports, the Aldermen will hear a motion on a survey for the new area of hunting ground at Lake Taylorville, potentially purchasing a 4WD Crew Cab, potentially purchasing a Millermatic Mig Welder, Land Pride Brush Cutter, and awarding bids for cabin cleaning and sanitation services.  Aldermen will also look to approve the survey of Block 41, approve some budgets, and approve an ordinance administering a 30% late penalty fee to license applicants who are delinquent in payment of license fees.  Under ordinances, the City Council is looking at placing a no parking sign on the east side of Clay Street from West Franklin to 3rd Street.
