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.
