While it says that it's— wants to maintain transparency and promote meaningful public participation, you're taking away one of the ways of notice. I wouldn't have any problem if this was in addition to publication in the newspaper and other ways to, to give public notice, but What this requires you to do is go to the city's website. This is not outreach, it's requiring people to go to the city's website and, you know, and figure out when such notices will happen.
