It was mentioned in one of the posts written on agenda items for one of the council meeting where the ordinance on his tenure was to come up.

Sure it was on Nov. 27 - http://patch.com/A-zNPB it was mentioned here the ordinance to give Spindler tenure was on introduction. The public hearing would have followed at the Dec. 11 meeting. A story was posted on Dec. 11 announcing the superstorm Sandy forum preceding the council meeting and the council meeting, and the attached agenda shows the public hearing listed.

Ok so the public meeting should have followed the Dec. 11th meeting where was the date of that meeting printed or was it not a public meeting as it was stated it would be.

It was conducted as part of the Dec. 11 regular meeting just as the agenda suggested. No one came forward during the public hearing and it was approved afterwards.

The records would be on file at borough hall then and they can be requested. That's all I can suggest at this point.
