City Council Faces Backlash Over Missed Notices and Assessments
In a recent government meeting, a resident expressed concerns regarding a lack of notification about significant property assessments, which could exceed $80,000. The resident stated that they did not receive initial notices about a public hearing or the associated financial implications, with the first communication arriving only two business days before a deadline to remove a fence. This lack of timely notice prompted the resident to seek clarification from city officials, who suggested addressing the issue with the post office.

The resident emphasized the importance of ensuring that all taxpayers receive proper notification, especially concerning substantial financial matters. They proposed that the city consider using certified mail for such notifications to prevent similar situations in the future. The resident firmly requested that the council uphold the previous vote related to the assessments and respect the process that had already taken place.

Following this discussion, the council moved on to address several agenda items, including a public hearing regarding a comprehensive master plan amendment for Uozilac Industries. This amendment involves changing the land use designation from medium density residential to manufacturing warehousing for a property located at the northwest corner of Lindsay Road and Wilhart Road. Additionally, the council discussed a proposed rezoning of the same property from single-family residential to limited industrial, aimed at facilitating the development of a certified survey map to combine three existing properties into a single lot.
