Unplugged 3 - The third installment of Rock Island Unplugged will feature our Mayor Mike Thoms and our City Council, held on October 30, 2019 from 5:30 pm – 7:30 pm at Riverfront Grille, 4619 34^th Street.  It will be an informal yet structured event that will give citizens direct access to their elected officials.  Its purpose is to initiate and conduct an open dialogue about current City happenings outside the confines of City Hall.  There will be an opening statement by Mayor Thoms, followed by introductions to the City Council and an open Q&A held directly after.  All questions, suggestions for the City Council or general statements from the community are welcome.  Event will be held. Hors d’oeuvres, non-alcoholic beverages and a cash bar will be provided to attendees.  Hope to see you there.
