Settle lawsuit over public hearing procedures by paying $435 and improving meeting rules
In Plain English
Environmental groups sued the city claiming public hearings for the Campus Bay project were conducted improperly. The settlement requires the city to pay $435 and formalize 5 hearing procedures that are already largely current practice. These include announcing time limits at the start and allowing council members to ask speakers questions without it counting against their speaking time.
