Council removes station area plan from tonight's agenda to allow more public notice
Summary
Council members removed the station area plan (agenda item 2) from the regular agenda to provide more opportunity for public awareness and conversation, councilors said during meeting remarks.
Councilors agreed to remove agenda item 2—the ordinance adopting the station area plan—from the regular agenda so the public would have more opportunity to learn about and discuss the proposal. A council member clarified the removal was to ensure additional courtesy notices and to increase public engagement rather than to indicate lack of support.
"We have removed item 2, which was the ordinance adopting the station area plan. We just wanted to make sure that the public had more opportunity to be aware that that was happening," a council member said. The chair asked staff to ensure notices and outreach were provided to maximize public participation before the item returns to a future agenda.
