Century Council Moving Meetings To Larger Facility
January 27, 2021
Century Town Council meetings for the remainder of 2021 have been moved from the town hall to a community center for more social distancing space and to allow for more public participation.
“Because of COVID, the meetings have been moved from town hall, a smaller venue, to the community center to allow more elbow room,” Mayor Ben Boutwell said. “People don’t have to feel as anxious; they can feel more at peace if they come to our meetings.”
The council meetings will be held at the Century Community Center on West Highway 4, rather than in the small council chambers at town hall. Meetings are generally held on the first and third Mondays, but there are adjustments for Independence Day and Labor Day. The schedule was not adjusted for Presidents Day on February 15. Only one meeting is traditionally held in December.
A bill list review will be held at 6:45 p.m. to be followed by a regular council meeting at 7 p.m. on the following dates:
- February 1 and 15
- March 1 and 15
- April 5 and 19
- May 3 and 17
- June 7 and 21
- July 6 and 19
- August 2 and 16
- September 7 and 20
- October 4 and 18
- November 1 and 15
- December 20

isn’t there a tower over there in that vicinity? oh well gotta move the meeting. don’t want those councilmen and women getting their brains fried.
Guess they haven’t thought of more long tables? Far too much of their work is done on the sly and the meetings are NOT properly and obviously advertised! BUT, still they did make one decision so far in 2021!
Most Of Them Don’t Show Up Half The Time So They Should Be Able To Spread Out
Nice effort to try and let more people in.
Maybe a little better.
Well at least they accomplished something this meeting….whoopee! How about an update on the meter replacements, the fire hydrants being repaired, the bridges being fixed, the Waste water treatment facility or the cell tower????
just wish they would do something. they screwed up the one thing that would benefit the city with more income and the citizens with high quality cell phone service. lets hope it gets better.
I’m guessing the massive overflow crowds at the meetings were too hard to manage….
Social distanceing ?????? 1/2 of them in photo aren’t 6′ apart
Lead by example
