they talked about this on the radio yesterday, one of the things the host brought up, he has in the past covered this kind of hearing for work and he was liking the idea of getting rid of these hearings as he said in the times he would be at the events/hearings that he would see the same faces and people attending over the years and they were often opposed just cause they were anti-development etc. and it felt like a waste of time as the general public really wasn't attending.
