I will say that announcing the meeting but not releasing the actual study beforehand is a bit annoying.

If you want informed feedback, give the people a bit of time to review the findings in advance of the meeting. I get enough of this crap at work (hey we want to discuss X important thing, but we're not going to give you any information on exactly what we're thinking before you show up, we'd rather you give 30 seconds of thought to the topic than 2 days, thanks).

Also inconvenient if you don't work a normal 9am-5pm shift.

Doing it this way gently pushes voters to attend meetings, every little bit to help justify people keeping city gov or committee positions.
