The Rome City Commission will conduct a public hearing for a couple of rezoning requests for property on Sunrise Drive when they meet Monday.

Commissioners are also expected to discuss the recently announced purchase of the Northwest Georgia Regional Hospital property.

During the caucus, commissioners will get an update on the Downtown Rome open container trial period, which began August 5 and is set to expire on October 30.

The caucus begins at 5 pm with the regular meeting starting at 6:30.
