Each Planning Commission meeting is an opportunity to be heard, though you usually have to register right at noon that day if you want a chance to speak.
Every City Council meeting also offers the community an opportunity to be heard, whether it is related to the agenda or not, and the City Council will make the final decision about this plan.
It is also helpful to email them if you have an opinion!
