Yesterday’s second Oct 27 event — the 7 PM stated meeting — is off the calendar verified
Yesterday’s issue reported that the council’s Legistar calendar listed two Oct 27 events: the 6:30 PM public hearing and a City Council Stated Meeting at 7:00 PM, both in City Hall Chambers. This morning, that stated-meeting row is gone: the calendar page’s full forward list now shows only the Public Hearing Notice, 10/27/2026, 6:30 PM, City Hall – City Council Chambers 4th Floor (plus the already-held Oct 13 meeting). The automated events feed agrees — it shows only the hearing as the council’s upcoming event. We can’t tell from the public record whether the meeting was deleted outright or is being rescheduled: no new date appears anywhere on the calendar or in the feed this morning. If you were planning to speak at 7, the plan just changed — watch the calendar page for a relist before the 27th.
The hearing is set: agenda Final, two files up for public comment verified
The Oct 27 public hearing at 6:30 PM in City Hall Chambers (4th Floor) has its agenda status: Final, with a published agenda and agenda packet. Two items are listed. The big one, TMP-0811, is a general ordinance amending the city’s Zoning Ordinance (General Ordinance 4-2000, Chapter 43) and the accompanying zoning map — to “reclassify and rezone certain properties to D-MX or UR-HD districts” and to amend the “Map A: Key Streets” attachment (attachment 13 of Chapter 43). The second, TMP-0866, is the hearing notice itself for the D-MX piece. That’s the whole docket: 2 records. Public comment happens at the hearing itself — that’s what a public hearing is for. Minutes, naturally, are not yet available for a meeting that hasn’t happened.
Status check: Oct 13 minutes still Draft, all eleven docket files still “Referred” verified
Four days after the meeting, the paper trail hasn’t moved. The Oct 13 stated meeting’s Legistar page still shows Minutes status: Draft, Published minutes: Not available, and its 11 agenda items listed. This morning’s legislative record pull shows the same picture as the paper trail: every file on the Oct 13 docket still carries status “Referred” — ten with Oct 13 action dates (the P.S. 9 conveyance local law; the four grant ordinances: Field Hall Foundation $30,000, state CHIPS $202,648.00, federal ESG $285,304.00, federal HOME $1,294,624.01; the $20,000 Santos/Aponte settlement; the AI-in-elementary-schools resolution; the Italian Heritage/Columbus Day declaration; the Commissioner of Deeds item; and the three-position IT budget amendment) plus the eleventh, the Greenburgh training-center agreement, referred Oct 6. The newest action date anywhere in the recent-record pull is Oct 13. “Referred” means sent to committee, not passed.
