Council to vote on apartment construction plan

CARBONDALE The Carbondale City Council is expected to vote Tuesday on a resolution approving the final unit development plan for the fourth phase of construction at Park View Apartments at 905 E. Park St.

The fourth phase of construction will add nine buildings to the apartment complex. Each new building will house four one-bedroom apartments. Phase-four plans are available on the city of Carbondale website.

The resolution is the only item listed on the action item agenda for Tuesdays meeting.

The council will also vote on the following consent agenda items:

Acceptance of motor Illinois Department of Transportation motor fuel tax audits for fiscal years 2010 and 2011.

An ordinance adopting a budget adjustment for the current fiscal year after a portion of real estate taxes was incorrectly levied to the firefighter pension fund instead of being split between police and fire pension funds.

A resolution authorizing City Manager Kevin Baity to execute a new five-year agreement between the city and Southern Illinois Regional Landfill for the disposal of solid waste. The city will pay $29.09 for each ton of compacted waste and $23.13 for each ton of loose waste. Those prices are several dollars less than standard rates of disposal at the landfill.

The council is also expected to enter into a closed session to discuss personnel and review closed meeting minutes.

The Carbondale City Council meeting begins at 7 p.m. Tuesday at council chambers at 200 S. Illinois Ave.
