Hiram Called Meeting Set for Thursday

Alcohol license renewals and a proposal to extend the city’s moratorium on sign permits will be on the agenda for the council’s first meeting of 2013.

The Hiram City Council will meet for the first time this year on Thursday for a special called meeting.

The meeting, set for 6 p.m. in the city’s community center at 217 Main St., includes on its agenda a proposed resolution to extend by 90 days the city’s moratorium restricting the issuance of permits for signs. Also under consideration is a $2,465 change order request for the community center’s HVAC upgrade project, which will see four thermostats replaced with remote access and compatible “smart” thermostats.

Councilmen also will consider alcohol license renewals from seven businesses in the city.

The complete agenda for Thursday’s meeting is attached to this article in PDF form.

After Thursday’s meeting, the council’s next scheduled gathering is its Jan. 8 regular meeting, which will begin at 6:30 p.m.

I am torn on this decision. Even though homosexuality is a sin, it is no greater a sin than lyingRead More or cheating. If the troop had boys who were not Christian & they were committing those sins then that sin was being brought into the church. I think Christians need to remember that no one sin is greater than another. I think the parents of the boy scouts would have to determine if they wanted their child to participate in the troop if their was a homosexual in their group. However, the church hosted the Boy Scouts upon a certain charter. When that charter was changed then the church has the right to decide if they want to continue the association. I know of other churches that ended their hosting of Boy Scouts last year because the group was becoming too politically polarizing & they felt that conflicted with the ministry of the church. It is a fine line with views on both sides but I feel each church has to decide what is best for them...it is after all their facilities.

Do we not remember who Jesus surrounded himself with? Don't believe for one minute that there is notRead More one homosexual in your congregation, or for that matter an adulterer, a fornicator, a thief, a liar, the list goes on. And if you are a real stickler, any divorcee that has dated or remarried is committing sin every day. I do not believe in the gay lifestyle but I do believe in what good the boy scouts do. Shame on you for abandoning them when they need you the most
