City Council Meeting Preview 
KATE SCHWARZLER EXPLAINS 
HER WORK FOR CITY TONIGHT
The projects of Indy Idea Hub, a partner with the city, are expected to be presented by Kate Schwarzler, executive director of the non-profit and proprietor of Indy Commons on Main Street. Schwarzler signed contractual agreements with the city during the pandemic and is expected to share her results. 

In 2019, Schwarzler agreed to provide “entrepreneurship development services” for the city through her firm “Creo Solutions,” with payment not to exceed $37,200. Last year, on behalf of Indy Idea Hub, she signed an agreement with the city titled “transit planning services” for fees not to exceed $45,000.

​
Schwarzler is a member of the Independence Planning Commission and the city’s Parks and Recreation Committee. 

FEASIBILITY STUDY FOR SPORTS FIELDS  
A feasibility study also is expected to be voted on tonight for evaluating ways in which the city could develop and manage a tournament-level sports park on a north parcel of land owned by the city.  The area, currently referred to as the “ball fields,” already are used for playing baseball and soccer, among other sports, but haven’t been constructed to provide the facilities for tournaments.

The meeting is at 6:30 pm in council chambers at the Independence Civic Center.

Rep. PAUL EVANS SUCCEEDS in EXPANDING CIVICS EDUCATION
Trammart News & Publishing has begun delivering, once again, an e-newsletter on local education issues, the "Linking Loop," which largely ceased publication during the pandemic. Below is a link to the first Linking Loop of 2022, on Rep. PAUL EVANS’ legislative efforts on civics in education, which will put more class time on this topic into schools https://trammartnews.com/the-linking-loop.html​

SIGN UP TODAY: A volunteer opportunity with the Luckiamute Watershed Council for Friday, February 25! Three-to-four volunteers are needed for a road clean-up project on Tampico Road (from 99W to Wiles Road). Volunteers will need to fill out a liability release form before they begin work (https://www.luckiamutelwc.org/tampico-road-clean-up.html.). Further instructions and a volunteer liability release form will arrive by email by Wednesday.
