It's because they schedule these meetings during the week in the middle of the day, so the only people who go are people who will complain about literally anything given the chance. That's why they go, to complain.

My dad used to be involved in city government at this level at arms length, and that's exactly what he said. It didn't matter what was on the docket, these people would just complain, nothing else mattered. Expert opinions, studies, nothing, just what they had to say. Sometimes people would show up, and complain about things that literally were not on the agenda. They were start rambling about things completely unrelated to the meeting. Community input at this level is nonsense.
