The East Point Planning and Zoning Commission voted to defer a city-initiated text amendment to section 10-22-06, which concerns public notification procedures. Director Smith asked for deferral so staff could prepare a fuller presentation with maps and additional analysis; commissioners agreed and moved to defer to the next month's work session.

The public hearing was opened and closed as part of the meeting, but staff asked for the extra time to present the intent of the ordinance and proposed map-based notice changes more clearly to the commission and the public. After a short staff presentation explaining the intent to streamline outreach and provide a higher level of outreach to the broader community, a commissioner moved to defer the item to the next month's work session; the motion carried.

The deferral gives staff time to develop materials for a fuller review; no changes to the public-notification code were approved at the meeting.
