a.) Why is the current Hollywood City Commission -especially the two newly-elected members, Linda Hill Anderson and Adam Gruber- ignoring both the "optics" and the real life public policy dimensions of this situation, and NOT offering a reasonable solution for the Planning & Development meetings, as long as the city's less-than-dynamic pandemic rules prevent full in-person public participation by the neighborhood and the larger community?
b.) How come the City of Hollywood has the resources to arrange things so that the Hollywood Sustainability Advisory Committee, a committee that many if not most of you may not have even known existed, can have Virtual meetings that allows for citizen engagement, as they are on Thursday, yet for some reason, they can not do that for the much-more important Planning & Development Board?
In case you did not know, the Planning & Development Board is one of the six citizen advisory Boards and Committees in Hollywood that REQUIRES appointees to file both a yearly Financial Disclosure Form as well as quarterly Gift Disclosure Form, while the Hollywood Sustainability Advisory Committee is... not.
That distinction shows what the city itself believes are the most important boards, no?

Color me less-than-impressed with how the city and its elected leaders have handled this matter thus far, and less-than-impressed that it may well be DAYS before most of the public in Hollywood ever finds out what really happened Tuesday night at Hollywood City Hall.
Clearly, I am not the only one who feels that way right now.
