CITY CALENDARZONING REWRITE HEARINGS The City of South Fulton is overhauling its Zoning laws, which govern everything from what kinds of businesses are allowed in what areas of our city to what kinds of materials must be used in the construction of homes or commercial storefronts. EMERGENCY COUNCIL MEETING Personnel & Litigation (City Attorney) Wednesday, December 2 • 3.30PM REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS November & December Regular Meeting Schedule Work Session & Regular Meeting Combined Tuesday, December 9 • 10AM Work Sessions usually occur the 2nd Tuesday of each month. Work Sessions will not run longer than three hours, from 4PM to 7PM. City Council does not vote in Work Sessions, but uses them to discuss complex issues in deep detail. Regular Meetings is where voting occurs. These meetings are usually held the 4th Tuesday of each month at 10AM. As is the case with many traditional government bodies, the most contentious topics are placed at the end of the agenda. Regular meetings currently have no set end-time. They begin with Proclamations, Zoning Hearings and Public Comment (this is where citizens can send in or deliver questions & comments directly to City Council). Historically, Council Meetings of this nature last about 6-8 hours. Daytime meetings were proposed to accommodate daytime work hours of city staff, architects & lawyers for developers (who attend Zoning Hearings) as well as Senior residents. Emergency and Special Called Meetings may be called by the Mayor alone, or a quorum (majority) of City Council Members at any time as long as 48 hours notice is provided. SOUTH FULTON 101
