"The current process is snail mail goes out to, I think, everyone who lives within 400 feet of the project and then emails go out to a much larger group," Cincinnati Councilmember Jan-Michele Lemon Kearney said. "And anyone who says they want to be emailed about what's happening in that community gets an email."
