12 275 276 Tom Altieri: I can follow up on that. I mention these equity opportunity areas.That's one of the things that Clarion will do. 277 There's data available to identify our low to moderate income communities, our non-English speaking, transit dependent 278 riders, and identify these areas and see where they relate in terms of things like where broadband is available,where 279 transit is available.You've heard of things like food deserts and things like that. That would be part of Clarion's work for 280 sure. 281 282 Beth Bronson: Just wondering if we will get notes from the work group meetings?Will we get debriefed or is that just at 283 those three different time points? 284 285 Tom Altieri: Clarion did mention that they will be taking meeting notes at those meetings.Those would be publicly 286 available. Certainly, one of the items I would expect would be part of their website along with a lot of other information 287 about the project. 288 289 290 AGENDA ITEM 8: PLANNING BOARD RULES OF PROCEDURE—To conduct a work session on potential 291 amendments to the Board's Rules of Procedure. Discussion will include possibly formalizing time 292 restrictions on applicants' presentations and formalizing the current policy of limiting individual 293 comments to 3 minutes. 294 295 PRESENTER: Perdita Holtz, Deputy Director—Long-Range Planning &Administration 296 297 Perdita Holtz gave a short introduction to the work session topic of potential amendments to the Board's rules of 298 procedures regarding length of applicant and public comments. 299 300 Statler Gilfillen: reading from information in the packet... "Neighborhood planning board members shall be encouraged to 301 attend neighborhood information meetings." I am the representative for the Eno District, I believe in March there may 302 have been a meeting about the Lawrence Road that was that public meeting. I don't remember seeing it, I missed it, how 303 do I encourage that if something is coming, in any of our respective district areas that somebody from planning might 304 give us a phone call or flag it to us so we don't miss it? 305 306 Perdita Holtz: I believe that an email went to the planning board telling you that there was going to be a neighborhood 307 information meeting. 308 309 Charity Kirk: There was. 310 311 Statler Gilfillen: I'm in the district and I'm the one that should have had a focus, but I apparently missed it and I admit that 312 1 missed it, it's my mistake. I'm trying to help the system so that any of us, if it's in our district,that maybe a special effort 313 to send not just a general email but to us to flag it. Because it's too easy to miss something. 314 315 Adam Beeman: If you missed that one, how would the second one get to you any different? 316 317 Charity Kirk: It was sent to the planning board,there's only a few of us... 318 319 Beth Bronson:There's also a website you can look at under the current projects and that will tell you if there's a 320 neighborhood information meeting and where that's at. I normally check that every month or so. 321 322 Cy Stober: So actually one of the special projects that Ashley has been working on, is coordinating with community 323 relations on a monthly newsletter and that will include neighborhood information meetings that are coming up.We can 324 include planning board meetings on that newsletter,so you'll have an extra reminder. 325 326 Lamar Proctor: Is there any kind of state law that we should be aware of in terms of limiting people's ability to speak or 327 anything along those lines?The state legislature has given us the ability to limit discussion at these meetings but to give 328 people the opportunity to discuss? 329
