During a recent government meeting, concerns were raised regarding a planned unit development (PUD) that has sparked significant community interest and frustration. A local resident highlighted that the PUD is intended to consist of rental units for the foreseeable future, indicating that these properties will not be available for individual purchase if the current plans are adhered to.

The resident expressed dissatisfaction with the lack of communication from city planners, stating that despite assurances made during a fall meeting, they were not informed about the project's progress. The individual discovered the development was moving forward only by chance in June, prompting them to reach out to neighbors who also felt excluded from the planning process.

Further criticism was directed at the city's notification methods regarding zoning changes, specifically referencing a change made in February 2023. The resident pointed out that the signage used to inform the public was inadequate, being both small and placed far from the road, making it difficult for community members to notice.

This meeting underscores ongoing tensions between local residents and city officials over transparency and community involvement in urban development projects.
