Transit arrival sign text amendments

AI-assisted researchHow this was researched and checked

Text amendments were proposed to allow electronic message board signs, such as real-time bus arrival signs, for the Regional Transportation Authority. On August 27, 2019 the Planning and Zoning Commission opened the hearing and voted by voice vote to continue discussion to its next meeting. A later staff memo to the City Council reports that at the continued hearing on September 10, 2019 the commission voted to recommend approval; those minutes are not extractable here. The vote is a recommendation; City Council action is not part of this record.

Documented status: Committee recommendation (reported in a later record), Sep 10 2019. Evidence dated . Later outcomes require a later source.
