Mayor Correia requests special meeting to discuss holiday purple bag amnesty

Mayor Correia is looking to have a special meeting held to discuss purple bag amnesty during the holidays.

Last week Correia sent a request to the City Council for a special meeting to approve the Purple Bag amnesty week. Due to an objection by Councilor Shawn Cadime, the amnesty request was tabled until December 18th. The Mayor is concerned, however, that by December 18th, proper notification needed would be delayed which could place the amnesty program in limbo. Here is the recent requested sent to the City Council by the Mayor.
