Commissioner Williams returned to the hearing room at 8:48 a.m. He expressed his concern about hearing two Specific Plan projects at the same time. He also found it troubling to receive a data dump from staff at 5:00 p.m. the evening before the hearing, not giving enough time for the public or the Commission to review the materials.

Commissioner Boeger agreed that for a hearing all the materials should be available in a timely manner. However, as it’s a workshop, she is comfortable with having the conversation.

Chair Nevis agreed with Commissioner Williams that when it comes to a hearing that the last minute data dump is not going to go over well. However, as this is a workshop and is informational, Commissioner Nevis stated that he is comfortable proceeding.

No action was taken on this item.
