Summary

Commissioners are coalescing around bigger notices: a 500-foot mailing radius, mailings to renters as well as owners, and on-site signs instead of newspaper legal ads. Resident testimony highlighted past notices sent to wrong addresses for the Sierra Club.

A bigger radius costs more to mail, but dropping newspaper ads could offset that; staff plans to make applicants pay for signs.
