About Council Quick Notes
Council Quick Notes is designed to keep West Lafayette residents informed about City Council activity. Each edition highlights the agenda for the upcoming meeting or summarizes the actions taken on those items.
We understand it can be frustrating to miss an ordinance or resolution that impacts you. That's why we’re committed to sharing this information in advance. You’ll receive one Quick Notes email about a week before the Council meeting and a follow-up after the meeting concludes.
With this timely information, you’ll have the opportunity to reach out to your City Councilor, attend the meeting, or share your feedback - whether it’s in support, with concerns, or in opposition.
Council Quick Notes is a growing initiative, and we welcome your suggestions on how we can make it more useful for you.
