Hi Neighbors!
P&Z PREP MEETING
There will be a meeting Sat., May 28 at the Fraternal Order of Eagles. When you arrive, go to the main door that has the flags.Contact Helene (HMKTI@yahoo.com) with questions about this meeting.
P&Z GUIDEBOOK
A guidebook will be presented Tues., May 31 at Owenwood Farm & Neighbor Space. This will be the basis of our opposition. It will be distributed to neighbors and the planning commissioners. Additional talking points, that support the Guidebook, will be determined at this meeting. Those speaking at P&Z will have a specific topic to discuss and a notecard of talking points to take with them June 2. The idea is to have well-thought-out points that won’t be repeated by another speaker. This will make us look prepared and educated. P&Z is not moved by feelings, we have to hit them with facts.This meeting is only reserved for an hour so please be on time.Please bring $5 to help cover the meeting space rental.Contact Robin (eastwoodhillsna@gmail.com) with questions about this meeting.
P&Z SPEAKERS
Speakers will need to be strategically chosen based on our issues that align with their experiences. This is not meant to exclude anyone or hurt feelings. People that can speak to points that have directly impacted them will be very meaningful. If too many people speak it may upset the planning commissioners. We are not their only agenda item that day and need to be respectful of their time. We want to keep this short, sweet and super organized. This is about quality not quantity. If we have concise arguments, a handful of speakers will be effective.
SUPPORT YOUR SPEAKERS
We may not need many speakers but supporting neighbors are welcome to be a part of the audience. Showing up in numbers always makes an impact! Some neighbors have made shirts for this event. If you haven’t, you can still support them by wearing a red shirt if you desire. Those in red shirts should sit in the front of the group, especially those that have “NO Z201-180” shirts. Those will be most visible to the Planning Commissioners across the room. Red means STOP, and that is our goal. Stop the rezoning!If you would like to drive and/or carpool to the meeting you can post here on our Nextdoor page. Please invite any neighbors you think would be interested in attending.
