Summary
Council Member Matt Carlucci said he is presenting his proposed solid-waste fee and related materials at Community Planning Advisory Committee (CPAC) meetings across the city to solicit feedback before moving the bill further through the council process.
Council Member Matt Carlucci said at the committee meeting on Jan. 7 that he is taking his proposed bill on solid-waste fees to Community Planning Advisory Committees (CPACs) across the city to gather feedback from community organizations and neighborhood leaders.
"I am going to CPACs. I went to one last night, and it went great. It was a wonderful time to share the bill and FAQs," Carlucci said. He said he has contacted CPAC chairs and neighborhood staff so attendees will be informed before meetings and that the meetings are noticed and open to the public.
Carlucci said he chose the CPAC route because CPAC membership includes many community-organization presidents who can represent a broader constituency. He invited other council members to attend the sessions and said staff member Rosemary from neighborhoods was helping to promote the meetings. The committee chair asked whether Rosemary would note his appearance on CPAC agendas; Carlucci confirmed he had contacted chairs and neighborhood staff.
No formal action on solid-waste policy was taken in this committee meeting; Carlucci framed the outreach as part of pre-vote public engagement.
Ending: The committee adjourned after brief member updates.
