vote is closed 5A Z 5A Z the minutes are approved we have been joined by council member Norwood next on our agenda is public comment members of the public are allowed 3 minutes to speak um so long as it's not on legislative items that have gone before or will go before the zoning review board we have one member of the public signed up to speak um and so I will welcome Kim shorter to the podium thank you hi my name is Kim shorter I live at 3353 Grant Valley Road Northwest in Atlanta I am the chair of npb's zoning committee and um I wanted to ask this board a favor that we not have tight turnaround time between issues that we hear at npub and between the npub meeting and either the zrb or the bza where they will be heard next it poses a real burden um I have a job that gets in the way sometimes of my volunteering um in a family and with all those time commitments when we have meetings that are on a Tuesday night that get done after my bedtime um it's makes it very difficult to get the um issues that are discussed at that meeting turned around to the city in a timely manner that they can have them ready for the ZR or the bza if that meeting is 2 days later I think a week's spread between when our meetings happen and when those meetings happen would be good the other challenge with that is that often we write letters of support or an opposition um and we like to attach the vote that the npu had and it doesn't give us a lot of time to turn that around and get it to the board on time or for the public for that matter if they want to weigh into an issue with having timing so close I'll add to you that in an mpu last year I think it was MP nro o there was a vote taken at the npu meeting on their evening of their meeting and several days later that vote was scrubbed and it determined that several of the people that voted at the meeting were not in the npu and so the city had to change the vote count and it changed the decision from Pro or against or against a pro I can't remember the details but it did effectively change that vote content so if you have a mpu meeting on a Tuesday and then you have a meeting on a THS Thurs day that does not give a lot of time for those votes to get scrubbed if it's a contentious issue and for that material to get into the hands and for the public and the mpus to be able to participate so my request would be a week's worth of time would give everyone a little bit of breathing room so we can do our jobs and support the process the best we know how thank you thank you thank you next up on our agenda are ordinances for first reading there are 14 ordinances for first reading that will be sound in at the next full council meeting on May 20th 2024 no action is needed on those items today that takes us to
