FYI. A person on the street recently told me to be ready for the big meeting on 12-17. Anyone see anything extra big? There is the normal purchasing of real estate during the closed door executive session. This is curious in light of the recent Landmark article reporting on how the Village will be doing deficit spending as a result of not having enough money. There is a garage noted, but I assume it is not THAT garage.
