The public meetings are required by the city\u2019s Sunshine Ordinance, passed in 2012 and aimed at increasing transparency in city government. <\/a>The ordinance requires larger development projects to hold community meetings at the start of the process, allowing residents to provide input early on before plans are finalized.<\/p>\n Monday night, KF Future LLC\u2019s proposal to replace the Bristol Car Wash at 2402 S. Bristol St. with a 66-unit housing project was presented to community members. The developer proposes that four units would be reserved for very-low-income households.<\/p>\n Meetings still coming up include:<\/p>\n KB Homes residential development (1901 E.
