From an email:
“More than 160 people signed up to make comments. (At least 6.5 pages on the witness list at 25 per page). Could not stay until the end so I don’t know if everyone spoke. They were processing about 16 speakers an hour when I left.
Looks like the speakers were about evenly split between pro-downzoning and anti-downzoning.
The hearing was about R-4 zone changes. If these changes go through and if the Lanier Heights downzoners succeed in changing Lanier Heights zoning from R-5-B to R-4 then Lanier Heights will be affected by these R-4 changes.
Attached is my statement. I read my statement shortly after the Lanier Heights downzoning leader, Denis Suski, read his statement supporting the reduction in R-4 zoning.
The hearing was video tapped and should be available for online viewing soon.
