To the chagrin of some residents, no date is currently set for the commission hearing of a building proposal that might bring a strip club to North Bay Village.
The proposal was not heard at the December commission meeting, and it has opponents fearing it might be slipped into a special meeting with very little public notice beforehand.
“I hate to see the type of parliamentary deception that happened last year,” said Kevin Vericker, a blogger on the city, and opponent of the strip club.
He is referring to a previous strip club proposal that was heard at a special commission meeting that Vericker feels had inadequate public notice for the important topic.
“I would hope that the commission, when and if these plans come before you, would commit to do this at a regular meeting with the usual adequate notice,” he told the commission at the meeting.
“It makes it very difficult for the residents to be prepared to discuss the issues on hand,” he said.
Others similarly found it strange the topic was not on the agenda.
