The great swearing-in mystery - solved?

.
City Hall or Courtroom? Where was the mayor-elect's swearing-in to be?

Both the legal notice published by the Municipal Clerk in the Courier News on Wednesday, December 28, and the press release by the Office of Public Information issued Thursday, December 29, announced the swearing-in of Sharon Robinson-Briggs as Plainfield's first woman mayor would take place at 3:00 PM, Sunday, January 1, 2006 in the Rotunda of City Hall.

A brief in the Courier News on Friday, December 30, said the swearing-in would take place at 3:00 PM at the Municipal Council/Courtroom. Which was it to be?

The public employees win.

All are cordially invited to the swearing-in at 3:00 PM Sunday in the Rotunda of City Hall.

How did the mix-up happen? Nobody knows. There was no one at the Courier News who could answer a question on the matter as of Friday morning, but a correction was promised.

Let's hope this is not a sign of things to come.

P.S. The Courier's correction in Saturday's paper: "Swearing-In Correction [last item]"
