I will be calling Monday to inquire/confirm about public comment parameters.

Please make plans to attend.
Please encourage your family, neighbors and co-workers to attend. We need to pack the house and get the message across that
1) Proposed ordinance is unlawful
2) Proposed ordinance is worthless as a tool to fight illegal/straw purchases.
3) That the people will not tolerate such misleading and unlawful action.

Pre-Meeting gathering location:
For those that will arrive early let's meet up here before heading to the meeting:
Northern Light
536 Spruce St.
Scranton, PA 18503
570-342-3200

From City Hall the coffee shop is south on Washington and left on Spruce. You can almost see it from city hall.

PARKING:
There is a public parking garage almost directly across from City Hall (couple buildings south)
There is a garage on Spruce, behind the Fed courthouse
I believe there is a garage on Adams too.
Also, city street parking is metered but the meter enforcement ends at 6PM. So if you arrive before 6 you can just feed the meter when you park and you will be fine.

Buona Pizza
504 Lackawanna Ave
Scranton, PA 18503-2008
