YORKVILLE — City officials will hold three public meetings on the referendum asking voters if they want the city to purchase the REC Center.
The City Council earlier this year voted to put the purchase question on the November ballot.
It will ask voters it the city should purchase the REC Center to operate as a public recreation facility through a 20-year installment purchase contract at a price not to exceed $2.5 million. The interest rate would be no more than 6 percent a year.
The meetings will be: 5:30 p.m., Oct. 9, at the City Hall council chambers; 9:15 a.m., Oct. 16, at the REC Center small gym; and at 6:30 p.m. Oct. 25 at the REC Center small gym.
Information that will be presented can be found on the City website at www.yorkville.il.us.
City officials will field questions regarding the referendum at referendum@yorkville.il.us or at 630-553-4350.
