MIDDLETOWN, Calif. – The Middletown Area Town Hall on Thursday will discuss public projects and events, and get an update from a committee that is exploring the proposal to locate a Dollar General in the town.

On the agenda are discussions of public improvement projects including the suggestion to install arches at the entrances to Middletown Park, with a marquee for the park also proposed.

There also will be consideration of creating a game night at the park.

Also on the agenda is an update from the group's Dollar General committee, formed earlier this year.

The committee has been looking at the proposal from Texas-based Cross Development to place a 9,100-square-foot Dollar General store at 20900 S. Highway 29.

At the August MATH meeting, committee Chair Monica Rosenthal explained that committee members had looked at the proposal and how it fits with the Middletown Area Plan.

Other agenda items include the approval of the Aug. 13 meeting minutes; discussion of the Oct. 8 agenda, featuring new Middletown Unified School District Superintendent Catherine Stone; and public comment.

The board of directors includes Chairman Fletcher Thornton, Vice Chair Claude Brown, Secretary Ken Gonzales, and members Charlotte Kubiak and Mike Tabacchi.
