Commission signals preference for 9 a.m. Thursday routine meetings, plans flexibility for evening sessions
Summary
Members expressed a general preference for holding routine Planning and Zoning Commission meetings at 9:00 a.m. on Thursdays to accommodate schedules, while agreeing that meetings expected to draw public attendance should be held in the evening.
Commissioners discussed establishing a standard meeting time for routine business at the April 13 session. Zoning Administrator Jessy Willadsen told the commission that meetings likely to draw significant public attendance, such as listening posts, would probably need evening hours; he asked members to identify a general routine meeting time to suit members’ schedules.
Members reported scheduling constraints: Ben Rottinghaus said the current 4:00 p.m. start time creates conflicts because of childcare obligations, and Derek Straube noted that as a teacher daytime meetings may be difficult in the future. While no formal vote was taken, the general preference expressed by those present was to hold routine meetings at 9:00 a.m. on Thursdays; Willadsen said remote attendance options can be made available when appropriate.
