A "Special Board Meeting" of the City of Mesa's Planning & Zoning Board took place yesterday - again with two members absent. The PZ Board usually meets on Wednesdays . . OK, but any reasonable person might ask why they're making changes NOW to the 2040 GENERAL PLAN?       Let's take a quick look at the Minutes:
