Thursday's Retirement Concepts (RC) Public Meeting on Rezoning Application

As I noted last week - Retirement Concepts (RC) has applied to the City of Williams Lake for a change to the CD-14 or Comprehensive Development 14 Zone to allow it to offer rental market housing to the general public at their Phase 3 Building where 24 of the 85 units are filled with seniors' and Retirement Concepts will be hosting a meeting to discuss their rezoning application

The meeting details are:

Where - WL Seniors' Village (1455 Western Ave)
When - 4pm to 6pm on Thursday, May 26th

A report to Council on this subject can be viewed here as well as a letter to the editor over at Welcome to Williams Lake on this subject from Kim Tuerlings entitled "Screaming need for care facilities in BC" here

One Question though:

If the City suggested that RC hold a public meeting between 1st and 2nd Reading of their rezoning application, why didn't the City offer RC the opportunity to hold the meeting in a central location (ie - Council Chambers) and at a time convient for most people (ie 7-9pm) and not 4-6pm where it looks like both RC and City Council have something to hide here?
