Future meetings of the Fallbrook Community Planning Group will begin at 6:30 p.m.

The meetings had started at 7 p.m. until a 14-0 planning group vote April 17 with one vacant seat approved the change in the meeting time start.

“Our meetings have been extraordinarily long,” said planning group chair Eileen Delaney.

The initial proposal was to begin meetings at 6 p.m., but some planning group members felt that they or members of the public would not be available at that time due to travel after completion of a workday. The 6:30 p.m. starting time was agreed upon as a compromise.

“Hopefully it will help not only us but members of the public as well,” Delaney said. “I want to encourage the public to attend.”

The May 15 planning group meeting will be the first with the new starting time.
