I take full responsibility for misreading the date for signing up and it will not happen again. Do we need to "appear" tonight or do anything else for the postponement or is it automatic? We appreciate Staff and Applicant's agreeing to the postponement.

I regret the circumstances and will forward the Neighborhood’s request for postponement to the Tuesday, June 16th ZAP meeting. The Applicant does not object to the Neighborhood’s request for postponement. Next Friday, June 12th I will forward the updated Staff report, the ZAP agenda and instructions for speaker registration (with deadlines!) to the group listed above. If you would like to send additional correspondence regarding this case, please send to me by the close of business next Tuesday, June 9th.

Have you revisited our ability to speak at the hearing tonight? I apologize for misreading the message in the first place, but I truly believed we had until today to sign up and had passed that info on to our group when we met this weekend. It will cause prejudice to our neighborhood if we are unable to speak to the commission, and will give an unfair advantage to Applicant. Since the agenda for the hearing tonight is not lengthy, there will be no unfair advantage to anyone to allow us to speak. Even though I misread the information provided on the first page of the agenda, in the notice of the hearing that was provided to affected property owners and our board, a link to the following information on the comment process was provided. There appears to be no deadline for signing up to speak, and it is preferred that a request for postponement be given the day before, not it is not required. **************** Zoning and Platting Commission Meeting information (agenda, time, date) is at this link. Contact Andrew Rivera, Planning and Zoning Department - 5th Floor, One Texas Center, 505 Barton Springs Road , (512) 974-6508 It is preferred that anyone requesting a postponement of a public hearing put the request in writing to the Commission Liaison by 10:00 a.m. the Tuesday before the Zoning and Platting Commission meeting. The request for postponement should reflect how long the item should be postponed and the reasons for the postponement (Rules of Procedure Article VI. (A) ). ********************* If we are not allowed to speak, we respectfully by this writing request a postponement of this matter until such time as the Commission may hear from everyone regarding this matter. Since we were unaware until late last night that we were not going to be allowed to speak, we did not intend to seek a postponement. I will also seek a waiver from the planning commissioners. Please advise at your early opportunity. Thanks very much.

Our group met virtually this weekend and we have information to provide to the Commission that is important in their determination. In normal times, we would not even have to sign up until we arrived at City Hall. Wendy, please tell me we will still be able to speak tomorrow night? Otherwise, we will need to ask for a postponement of the hearing. We'd all rather not do that.

When you have the instructions for calling in to the hearing tomorrow night, could you please copy all of this group? Also if you could send a link to the live hearing if any portion of it is on ATV, that would be appreciated. I will be on a conference most of the morning and don't want to miss getting the info to everyone. Andrew, at a minimum, can you please add me and Kaysie Fernandez to the list of speakers. I am asking the others in the group to also send you an email by noon tomorrow, Tuesday, June 2 that they plan to speak. Please let us know when we should call. Will be all be queued up? I will be the lead speaker. Thank you both, as always, for your help. Best, Susan Hambright Director, Park Ridge Owners Association, Inc.
