The Atlantic City Council will hold a regularly scheduled session Wednesday at City Hall. The meeting begins at 5:30-p.m., and includes action on a Resolution “Endorsing the use of Regional TAP (Transportation Alternatives Program grant) Funds for the Schildberg Recreation Area Lake #2 Biking Trail.” The resolution states acknowledges the City endorses the trail project, and that with the assistance of the TAP funds, the construction of the multi-use trail will be completed and remain dedicated to public use, and adequately maintained by the City of Atlantic Parks and Recreation Department.

In other business, the Council will hear reports from the Personnel and Finance Committee with regard to their review of options the City can take in finding a replacement for Jamie Arnold, who resigned this month from his position as City Attorney. The committee will also report on changes to the City Council and Mayor’s compensation, noting the Mayor’s salary has not been increased in 18-years, and the Council has not received a raise in 21-years. It’s expected the committee will recommend a Cost Of Living Adjustment (COLA) be made to fairly compensate city leaders for time spent in their respective positions.

And, a Task Force has reviewed the financing, process and details for the proposed use of and/or accessibility improvements for, the second-floor multi-purpose room in the City Hall building, an open house event for which was held August 8th, during AtlanticFest.
