We sincerely appreciate everyone who joined us at the City Planning Commission Meeting on Wednesday, November 19th. Your presence and participation help shape the future of our community. While not everyone is captured in the photo, please know that we value each one of you who took the time to attend.

SUCCESS!

A large crowd of people gathered inside a modern building with glass walls and a staircase, some wearing masks, standing and chatting.

more supporters!

23 Jackson residents joined with others from across the city to nearly fill the council chambers with over 150 folks in attendance for tonight’s Planning Commission Public Hearing on SEDA.

The meeting started with a proposal to delay the presentation and vote due to a realization that the commission had misinformation and incomplete information regarding this significant topic.  They approved sending the topic back to city staff to continue research to gather complete and accurate information and to then bring it back to the commission for consideration.  No date was set for this.

This is a WIN!   Our hope tonight is that they would realize just what they did - that the commission was not prepared to decide on this topic.

It was noted that the commission has received significant public letters with concerns, and they also acknowledged the significant resident turnout at the meeting.

WAY TO GO JACKSON!!!!  

Stay tuned . . .  there will be future meetings where we want to show up  - and increase our numbers!  We will keep showing up to advocate for our neighborhood and our city!
