Another example of dirty pool on the part of the City Commission Agenda...

This came out today at 4:58 p.m. - how is this adequate public notice for a City Commission meeting? Especially sensitive is the item under IX Unfinished Business - Direct the City Attorney to prepare an ordinance regarding changing the zoning to SF-7 on property located at 826 Sunset Drive.

This is no doubt a result of the joint Planning and Zoning Board/City Commission last week where Richard Grosso, Esq. spoke. I have explained in a previous post how SF-7 would not equal 7 units to an acre on this property as the minimum lot size and dimension required cannot be accommodated on this size or shape of property - with the necessary roadway dedications.

Why the secrecy? Why slip this in as an "add/delete" - are you afraid that someone might actually have a good argument to keep the current zoning? All in all a cowardly act not in keeping with the spirit of the Sunshine Law.

Excuse the watermark - I am trying out a new file conversion software.
