Held the 3rd Wednesday of each month, our Ward 1 meetings are open to all. We will discuss activities in the City of Alton and Ward 1. It is a casual, unscripted meeting where everyone will have an opportunity to speak or observe. I will do my best to answer each of your questions.
I welcome this dialogue which guides my actions as Ward 1 Alderman. I truly enjoy getting to know you and engaging on topics that are important to you.
I will talk about two resolutions recently presented - the first is a request to update the 2003 Comprehensive Plan for the City of Alton; I am grateful the Alton Planning Commission voted positively last week to move it forward to the Alton City Council for approval.
The second is administrative in nature with a goal of bring clarity to legislative actions taken by the Alton City Council. I welcome your feedback on both.
Betsy Allen
Alton Alderwoman
