The committee scheduled a public forum for Nov. 12 to solicit feedback from business owners and residents on the citylighting ordinance and mobile food-truck rules.

Councilor Perry and several committee members said they will invite representatives from the Downtown Northampton Association, the Chamber of Commerce and neighborhood business groups so the panel can hear practical concerns from the business community.
