February's meeting will be have a number of highlights:
- Because this is the first meeting of the year, the new officers will be sworn in.
- With the flu season in full swing, we invited the Fulton County Department of Health and Wellness to come address the NPU.
- There is an extra-large proposed ordinance to discuss, Z-17-93.
- And, to sweeten the pot, we have a pair of tickets to give away to the February 28 Hawks vs. Pacers game at the Philips Arena!
February meeting item: Zoning "Quick Fixes" (Z-17-93)
This particular issue has been with us since November, but we didn't
have a General Meeting in December, and January was canceled because of
the weather. That brings us to the upcoming February meeting, where we
get to vote on Z-17-9, "Zoning Ordinance Quick Fixes Phase 1.
Despite the name, the "Quick Fixes" proposal is very large - 14 separate changes put together in a single omnibus. The overall intent is to apply a group of easy-to-execute "patches" in the existing zoning code to bring the code more in line with the Comprehensive Development Plan. Many of the items won't affect NPU-S, but since it's a citywide ordinance change, we get to vote on it.
If we attempt to debate this ordinance in its point-by-point at the meeting, the meeting will run over. I therefore strongly encourage everyone to look over the ordinance, which is linked below.
