Homestead Landing meeting rescheduled after dispute over participants; council discusses housing impacts
Summary
A meeting about the Homestead Landing housing proposal was rescheduled after disagreement over who should be included; council members discussed housing impacts near Tractor Supply and the need for a community meeting if construction details are missing.
Council members discussed a rescheduling and participant dispute around a planned field visit and outreach for a proposed housing project called Homestead Landing (sometimes referred to differently in exchanged messages).
Speaker 3 described attempts to set a date for an on-site meeting and said organizers refused a proposed time, leading to a heated Zoom call with members of the developer team. Speaker 3 said he declined to change the schedule for them and recounted that organizers then rebooked city hall on their own. Council members raised concerns about who was being included on the invitation list and said they had been left out of correspondence.
The council also discussed housing impacts connected to a proposed development behind Tractor Supply, with members asking what the city can and cannot do on policy grounds and flagging community concerns. Speaker 3 and others said they would pursue a community meeting separate from the developer's event to ensure broader public participation.
Staff will follow up on the rescheduled meeting timing and outreach list so the public and council members have clear notice before substantive discussion continues.
