Council adopts multiple redevelopment ordinances and municipal code changes; roll calls recorded
Summary
Plainfield City Council approved several redevelopment plan amendments and municipal code changes (MC2025‑27, 28, 29, 30, 32 and others), with recorded roll calls for each ordinance and one recorded No vote and one abstention on separate items.
The Plainfield City Council held public hearings and recorded roll calls to adopt multiple ordinances and municipal code amendments, primarily redevelopment plan adoptions and a tax exemption financial agreement.
On second reading and final passage the council adopted MC2025‑27 (affordable housing development fee ordinance) and MC2025‑28 (granting a tax exemption and authorizing a financial agreement with Mubarak Holdings Urban Renewal LLC for property on West Fourth Street). The council also adopted MC2025‑29 (Downtown East Front Street redevelopment plan amendment) unanimously. MC2025‑30 (West Front Street and Clinton Avenue redevelopment plan amendment) was adopted on final passage with one No vote recorded (Bridal Jones voted No; other members voted Yes).
The clerk then read additional ordinances on first reading — including MC2025‑31 (TOD North Avenue redevelopment plan amendment) and MC2025‑33 (Block 533, Lots 8 and 9 redevelopment plan) — and council approved those first readings by roll call.
Items on the consent agenda (resolutions 290‑25 through 323‑25) passed by roll call as a block. One non‑consent item, R295‑25 (appointment of Yasmin Diaz as municipal court prosecutor), was adopted on roll call with five votes in favor and one abstention (Council President Hockaday abstained).
The meeting record includes the detailed roll calls in the transcript for each ordinance and resolution; council members recorded in roll calls include Briggs Jones, Cherry, Graham, McCray, Vice President Sessoms and Council President Hockaday.
