Edina residents may have fewer chances to weigh in on proposals for new development, as city officials aim to collect more feedback online and shorten public meetings. Officials are proposing holding public hearings only before the city's Planning Commission, cutting the requirement for a second hearing before the City Council. They say the goal is to make council meetings a little quicker, and emphasize online feedback as much as in-person public hearings when residents can speak directly to planners or council members about their concerns.
