HUTCHINSON, Kan. — At the request of council member Jon Richardson, the Hutchinson City Council will officially discuss whether or not to move their meetings to the evening later this month.

"I would like for us to have it on an agenda item to take a vote on it and see if we need to move forward past that subject," Richardson said. "I would like to see it something that we move to the evenings, in the future, so people can plan their schedules around it. I think it's important for us to weigh in on it, make a decision and move on."

Mayor Greg Fast directed staff to put that subject on the next meeting's agenda. 

"We should do yes or no, is there interest in doing this," Richardson said. "I would say we want to put a start date at least out in September, because people have already planned their summer schedule. I think we need to talk about it, not during comment."

The next meeting of the Hutchinson City Council is Tuesday, June 18 at 9 a.m. at City Hall.
