The Public Infrastructure and Utilities Committee convened on September 18, 2024, at 3:33 PM, with a quorum established as members gathered to discuss several board bills. The meeting commenced with the approval of minutes from the previous session on July 10, 2024, which passed unanimously.

Among the key discussions was Board Bill Number 79, introduced by Alderman Pam Boyd, which proposes to rename a street near the Soldiers Memorial to \"Tuskegee Airman Way.\" Alderman Boyd detailed her engagement with the Tuskegee Airman organization over the past year, emphasizing the importance of the name change and the lack of a designated name for the street in question. She noted that the organization expressed their honor in having the street named after the Tuskegee Airmen, and she worked closely with legal counsel to ensure the process was followed correctly.

The committee's discussions reflect a commitment to honoring historical figures and ensuring proper recognition within the community. Further deliberations on additional board bills are expected in upcoming meetings.
