So we regularly 549 00:33:45,323 --> 00:33:47,492 are looking at the online 550 00:33:47,492 --> 00:33:49,260 portal portal to make sure that 551 00:33:49,260 --> 00:33:51,062 it's accessible, right.

And 556 00:34:01,205 --> 00:34:03,007 second question. So data access 557 00:34:03,007 --> 00:34:05,143 has been one of the biggest 558 00:34:05,143 --> 00:34:07,044 struggles in every iteration of 559 00:34:07,044 --> 00:34:10,281 the PEB. It appears it is still 560 00:34:10,281 --> 00:34:11,649 a struggle. And I do appreciate 561 00:34:11,649 --> 00:34:13,417 that there is a collaborative 562 00:34:13,417 --> 00:34:14,652 working relationship between 563 00:34:14,652 --> 00:34:18,089 all the entities at the table. 564 00:34:18,089 --> 00:34:19,357 But in the based on the report, 565 00:34:19,357 --> 00:34:22,059 I'm not sure like what the 566 00:34:22,059 --> 00:34:25,897 specifics are. So can you say 567 00:34:25,897 --> 00:34:27,131 more or provide a little more 568 00:34:27,131 --> 00:34:28,599 detail around specific data you 569 00:34:28,599 --> 00:34:30,367 may be looking for and barriers 570 00:34:30,367 --> 00:34:32,503 you may be experiencing? 571 00:34:32,503 --> 00:34:33,670 >> Absolutely. Just a few weeks 572 00:34:33,670 --> 00:34:35,773 ago, and actually, President 573 00:34:35,773 --> 00:34:37,575 Melendez was in the meeting, I 574 00:34:37,575 --> 00:34:39,243 know that Patrick Booth is here. 575 00:34:39,243 --> 00:34:40,477 He was in the meeting.

It is our 697 00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:38,221 expectation in terms of 698 00:47:38,221 --> 00:47:40,023 timeline, that we also will 699 00:47:40,023 --> 00:47:42,258 have a work session with one of 700 00:47:42,258 --> 00:47:43,794 the consultants that worked on 701 00:47:43,794 --> 00:47:45,796 this project before coming. 702 00:47:45,796 --> 00:47:47,430 We're looking at October 8th, 703 00:47:47,430 --> 00:47:48,999 but we will confirm that 704 00:47:48,999 --> 00:47:51,568 publicly as well. And then it 705 00:47:51,568 --> 00:47:53,303 is not anticipated that we will 706 00:47:53,303 --> 00:47:55,105 have a public hearing on the 707 00:47:55,105 --> 00:47:57,341 matter until November. So the 708 00:47:57,341 --> 00:47:59,443 public hearing for the zoning 709 00:47:59,443 --> 00:48:00,644 outside of the district forms 710 00:48:00,644 --> 00:48:01,945 that we talked about, the 711 00:48:01,945 --> 00:48:03,747 public hearing will be held on 712 00:48:03,747 --> 00:48:05,615 Thursday, November 12th at 6 713 00:48:05,615 --> 00:48:07,651 p.m. The council will not vote 714 00:48:07,651 --> 00:48:09,519 on the zoning code until at 715 00:48:09,519 --> 00:48:11,688 least November, but possibly 716 00:48:11,688 --> 00:48:13,890 December, pending the public 717 00:48:13,890 --> 00:48:14,925 input and decisions that 718 00:48:14,925 --> 00:48:17,094 council has to make. I will 719 00:48:17,094 --> 00:48:18,828 open it up just to see if 720 00:48:18,828 --> 00:48:19,929 there's any quick questions 721 00:48:19,929 --> 00:48:21,031 about process, and then we will 722 00:48:21,031 --> 00:48:22,866 adjourn. Any questions? 723 00:48:22,866 --> 00:48:25,068 >> Yeah, I think it was my 724 00:48:25,068 --> 00:48:26,470 understanding when we had 725 00:48:26,470 --> 00:48:28,004 initially discussed a plan that 726 00:48:28,004 --> 00:48:29,772 a someone who hadn't worked on 727 00:48:29,772 --> 00:48:32,609 the zoning code, an independent 728 00:48:32,609 --> 00:48:34,110 person would be available to us 729 00:48:34,110 --> 00:48:37,981 to discuss the code. So I'm I 730 00:48:37,981 --> 00:48:39,682 didn't hear that in the list of 731 00:48:39,682 --> 00:48:40,884 things you you mentioned. So I 732 00:48:40,884 --> 00:48:42,685 just wanted to follow up on 733 00:48:42,685 --> 00:48:42,986 that piece. 734 00:48:42,986 --> 00:48:47,224 >> Sure. So the, the consultant 735 00:48:47,224 --> 00:48:49,192 that we're talking about worked 736 00:48:49,192 --> 00:48:51,661 on this, the very front end of 737 00:48:51,661 --> 00:48:53,130 Zap in the previous 738 00:48:53,130 --> 00:48:55,265 administration. I don't think, 739 00:48:55,265 --> 00:48:57,067 to my understanding, has been 740 00:48:57,067 --> 00:48:58,902 involved. And we can get 741 00:48:58,902 --> 00:49:00,303 confirmation from the 742 00:49:00,303 --> 00:49:02,105 administration since the 743 00:49:02,105 --> 00:49:04,273 beginning, but they would be an 744 00:49:04,273 --> 00:49:05,742 outside consultant that would I 745 00:49:05,742 --> 00:49:06,509 don't think they've worked on 746 00:49:06,509 --> 00:49:09,646 our zoning code. And we can ask 747 00:49:09,646 --> 00:49:11,114 maybe the council staff also to 748 00:49:11,114 --> 00:49:13,650 confirm this in any substantive 749 00:49:13,650 --> 00:49:15,051 matter. And in a couple of 750 00:49:15,051 --> 00:49:16,553 years. 751 00:49:16,553 --> 00:49:19,822 >> I'll I'll stay back. But, I, yeah, I, I think a, a, a 752 00:49:19,822 --> 00:49:21,257 larger conversation should be 753 00:49:21,257 --> 00:49:22,792 had. This is my first time 754 00:49:22,792 --> 00:49:24,094 hearing that cameras would be 755 00:49:24,094 --> 00:49:25,729 the, the group. And initially 756 00:49:25,729 --> 00:49:26,963 we had, you know, discussions 757 00:49:26,963 --> 00:49:30,233 that had input. So this I guess 758 00:49:30,233 --> 00:49:32,035 deviates from, from my 759 00:49:32,035 --> 00:49:33,070 expectation and some 760 00:49:33,070 --> 00:49:35,272 expectations we had around who 761 00:49:35,272 --> 00:49:36,673 would be doing this and what 762 00:49:36,673 --> 00:49:37,774 decision making around it would 763 00:49:37,774 --> 00:49:39,576 look like. But I'm happy to 764 00:49:39,576 --> 00:49:41,044 hang back and discuss further. 765 00:49:41,044 --> 00:49:42,845 >> Thank you. Thank you. Any 766 00:49:42,845 --> 00:49:43,846 additional questions on the 767 00:49:43,846 --> 00:49:48,552 process? Council Member Gruber. 768 00:49:48,552 --> 00:49:50,020 >> Yeah, not a question, just a 769 00:49:50,020 --> 00:49:51,621 comment. I think it would be 770 00:49:51,621 --> 00:49:53,223 good. I think typically during 771 00:49:53,223 --> 00:49:56,126 budget season, council staff 772 00:49:56,126 --> 00:49:58,628 puts out a a graphic that is 773 00:49:58,628 --> 00:50:00,797 shareable so that people know 774 00:50:00,797 --> 00:50:02,933 where and when to engage. When 775 00:50:02,933 --> 00:50:05,502 do we plan to have the four 776 00:50:05,502 --> 00:50:07,637 district based sessions 777 00:50:07,637 --> 00:50:08,305 scheduled? 778 00:50:08,305 --> 00:50:10,140 >> So at this point, I believe 779 00:50:10,140 --> 00:50:11,407 staff are working on locations 780 00:50:11,407 --> 00:50:12,676 and have been working with 781 00:50:12,676 --> 00:50:14,111 district council members to 782 00:50:14,111 --> 00:50:15,579 solidify that. I know that we 783 00:50:15,579 --> 00:50:17,380 have two confirmed dates and 784 00:50:17,380 --> 00:50:18,114 locations, and we're working on 785 00:50:18,114 --> 00:50:19,849 the other two. So it is our 786 00:50:19,849 --> 00:50:21,050 hope that by tomorrow we'll 787 00:50:21,050 --> 00:50:22,819 have that ready and then we'll 788 00:50:22,819 --> 00:50:25,688 be able to put out a graphic to 789 00:50:25,688 --> 00:50:27,557 the public through our social 790 00:50:27,557 --> 00:50:30,393 media and other channels, 791 00:50:30,393 --> 00:50:32,462 hopefully by early next week. 792 00:50:32,462 --> 00:50:33,930 >> Great. I know there's 793 00:50:33,930 --> 00:50:35,365 continues to be. There's going 794 00:50:35,365 --> 00:50:37,501 to always be some communication 795 00:50:37,501 --> 00:50:38,501 from community members that 796 00:50:38,501 --> 00:50:39,736 there's not enough public 797 00:50:39,736 --> 00:50:40,804 engagement, there's not enough 798 00:50:40,804 --> 00:50:42,506 public hearings, as you just 799 00:50:42,506 --> 00:50:43,607 laid out. There's going to be 800 00:50:43,607 --> 00:50:46,143 at least five more.
