Mayor Mapp, Gateway Chamber of Commerce's Mayor of the Year for 2017. |
Celestial harmony reigned nearly supreme at Tuesday's Plainfield City Council meeting, with all items passing unanimously except for two resolutions awarding contracts to Pennoni Associates. In those two instances, Counclors Rivers and Tolliver voted "no".
After the business was concluded, Councilor Rivers discussed a letter concerning Councilor Tolliver, saying that "99.9 percent" of its allegations were untrue. To the audience, it was all pretty opaque, and the matter sputtered out like a wet match.
A resident called for a trafic light at Randolph Road and Plainfield Avenue.
And in a surprise move, resident Danny Dunn -- whom we haven't seen at Council recently -- came to the mike and, saying he had noticed a "vast improvement over the past two to four moths," endorsed incumbent Mayor Adrian O. Mapp, saying, "You [meaning Mapp, who was not present] have my support and I'm going to encourage [everyone] I can."
The vast cloud of witnesses to these events? I counted 7.
