The next SPUD Committee meeting will be in the 28th of July, and will be held at the Borough building at 6:00 pm.
Normally the meetings are held at the Lazy Mountain Bible Church, but it was unavailable this time. The meeting will be held in the conference room right next to the Borough Assembly room; simply walk into the building, go to the lower level, and take a left.
As always, the meeting is open to the public, and everyone is encouraged to attend!

Everyone is welcome and encouraged to attend!
Eileen Probasco couldn’t make the May 20th date, so there is rescheduling going on. The planning team will most likely be meeting either the 25th or 26th of May a the Lazy Mountain Bible Church at 6:00 pm. As soon as a concrete date is known, it shall be posted here and on the calendar!

planning@matsugov.us
Or send via USPS:
