Levy County commissioners discuss holding evening comprehensive‑plan sessions to boost participation
Summary
Commissioners discussed scheduling at least one evening session for the county comprehensive plan after contractors indicated willingness to run night meetings; staff will coordinate dates with the planning commission and return with cost and scheduling details.
The Levy County Board of County Commissioners debated whether to hold at least one evening meeting for public engagement on the county’s comprehensive plan.
Commissioners said evening sessions could increase participation. County Manager Mariela Harper said scheduling is a board decision and recommended coordinating with the planning commission and the contractor. The contractor indicated willingness to hold an evening session but warned there could be an additional fee for extra meetings; staff and commissioners agreed to identify which future sessions are likely to draw the largest public turnout and to try one night meeting first.
No formal vote was taken. Staff will place the job description and sample RFPs for the county attorney search on the next agenda and will return with proposed dates and cost estimates for any evening comprehensive‑plan meetings.
