How is public notice given for the public hearing?
At least 20 days before the public hearing date, the city publishes the legal notice in the Manhattan Mercury and mails written notice directly to the surrounding owners of record of any property located within 200 feet of the subject site, if located within the city, and 1,000 feet if located in the unincorporated county.

In addition, approximately one week prior to the public hearing date, the city emails the meeting agenda to anyone who has subscribed through the In Touch email notification system on the city’s website for either the Manhattan Urban Area Planning Board or the Manhattan Board of Zoning Appeals. Planning Board agendas contain links to agenda items that can be downloaded.
