During the final comment period, Commissioner Dana Beasley-Brown asked her fellow commissioners to reconsider a six-month moratorium, calling it a due diligence period.

“What we’ve heard from our constituents tonight is exactly why we have a duty to pause,” Beasley-Brown said. “I encourage my fellow commissioners and the mayor to reconsider the six-month due diligence period.”

The moratorium was added to the agenda but failed in a 3-2 vote. Commissioners Dana Beasley-Brown and Carlos Bailey voted in favor of the six-month pause.

“I feel like people should be able to stand at their mailbox and talk to their neighbor, they should be able to sit in their front yard,” she said.

Commissioners also gave early approval to a new ordinance that seeks to improve pedestrian safety along busy roads in town by making it illegal to remain stationary on city owned rights-of-way.
