Commission sets next meeting for Aug. 27 amid venue and scheduling trade-offs

The commission reviewed a proposed schedule of meetings and selected Thursday, Aug. 27 for the next session while acknowledging scheduling trade-offs. Commissioners discussed whether to hold regular meetings on Mondays or Thursdays — some preferred Mondays, but staff said Thursdays provide better access to the chamber and hybrid meeting equipment.

"August 27, please," Kat said when the chair asked for a preference; the commission scheduled that date and asked staff to continue checking alternate venues and times to maximize public access. Members also raised website reliability and packet availability as issues to fix before future meetings.
