Yesterday, the City added a record 12 meetings to the weekly schedule, giving little functional notice to the public. Here’s the meetings that were added and what might be of interest and you might want to change your plans for today or tomorrow. I find the meetings today, 4 of them, particularly galling. But 8 of them gave less than 48 hours notice before their meetings.
The rest of the schedule is here.
