Planning commission moves regular meeting time to 6:30 p.m.; change to take effect in June
Summary
The commission voted to change its regular meeting start time from 7 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. starting with the June meeting after a staff survey and discussion to align with city board timing.
The Ozark City Planning and Zoning Commission voted to change its regular meeting start time to 6:30 p.m., effective with the June meeting. Commissioners said a survey of members showed broad support for an earlier start and the timing was adjusted to align with the Board of Aldermen’s similar change.
Commission discussion referenced a staff survey and review of other cities’ meeting times. Don Kearns (Mayor) addressed the commission in favor of the change, noting 6:30 p.m. was a compromise between earlier and later starts and could improve attendance for working residents. The commission approved a resolution setting the new time by roll call vote.
Why it matters: The time change is an administrative alteration to meeting procedure designed to increase participation and align commission scheduling with other city boards; staff will circulate notices so the public is aware of the new start time.
