We who are interested in the Acorn proposal find it very interesting that this is on the Planning Com. agenda, this evening, one week before the Xmas weekend. With several reports to digest, and little time to obtain them if one misses the Friday release, how is it that the commissioners have the time to digest the information, and render valid judgements. Nor can the residents prepare their statements in opposition with so little advance information, much of it less than accurate. It is time that this council bite the big bullet and request that all staff   reports and backup info be prepared at least one week prior to any meeting that purports to be an approval session for those proposals that are inherently questionable and that require CHANGES. in zoning, use permits
and other "practices that are in opposition to current regulations or codes". I doubt that I need to point out the aberrations & errors that have occurred during the past 4 plus years. Received on Mon Dec 17 18:45:59 2007
