Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...Palm Springs City Hall hosts a full week of public meetings touching on transportation planning, housing development, human rights issues and economic policy, beginning Monday afternoon and concluding with a relatively short City Council agenda Wednesday night. The week opens Monday at 1 p.m. with a special meeting of the Sustainability Commission’s Active Transportation Subcommittee (see the agenda here). The City Council meets Wednesday at 5:30 p.m. with a shorter-than-usual agenda (see it here), though one item carries significant policy implications. City staff say the changes are intended to encourage reinvestment in aging properties while protecting future tax revenue. Approval Wednesday would constitute a first reading of the ordinance, with further action expected later this month.
