HRA Meeting Information  
The HRA is paperless which saves the environment and reduces  
expenses. The agendas and HRA files are all available on the Web (see  
below). Commissioners use mobile devices to review the files during the  
meeting. Using a mobile device greatly reduces costs since agendas,  
including the documents attached to files, can be over 100 pages when  
printed.  
Web  
Meetings are available on the City Council website. Email notification and  
web feeds (RSS) of newly released minutes, agendas, and meetings are  
available by subscription at  
copies of the agendas, minutes, and supporting documents.
