The Oak Ridge City Council and Oak Ridge Board of Education will discuss school issues and receive a briefing and update on the proposed general aviation airport and electrical substation project at the Y-12 National Security Complex during a joint work session on Tuesday, January 16.

The work session will start at 6 p.m. Tuesday in the school library at Robertsville Middle School. Those who attend should use the main front entrance of the building, located at 245 Robertsville Road, to access the library, a press release said.

“A number of school issues will be discussed by City Council and the Board of Education during the work session,” the press release said. “The agenda also includes a briefing on the proposed general aviation airport in Oak Ridge and an update on the Y-12 electrical substation project public meeting. There will be time for an informal neighborhood discussion with City Council members during the meeting as well.”

Work sessions are typically held inside the Oak Ridge Central Services Complex on Woodbury Lane.

“However, as part of an ongoing effort to encourage community engagement, the city has begun utilizing new locations for meetings,” the press release said. “This was brought up as a suggestion during one of the Oak Ridge City Blueprint open house meetings organized by the Community Development Department.”

Any questions about the upcoming work session or other meetings of City Council should be directed to the City Clerk’s office at (865) 425-3411.

More information will be added as it becomes available.
