The Commission will address the revocation of a Door to Door Sales license held by Pastor Robert Coleman of State of Grace Ministries. Two documents relating to the revocation are in the City Commission agenda packet. The first is a letter from the City Finance office to Coleman dates July 29th indicating that the license has been revoked for quote “alleged prohibited conduct” during the application process.

Other agenda items include accepting an offer by the City of Groton to purchase the old municipal pool water slide, consider acquiring a trailer home and refunding Building Inspector Roger Bell for taxes and fees and a reminder that the city rubble site will be closed for a time on August 21st for the Solid Waste Convention being held in Huron.
