I noticed this week the city council was holding a city council meeting the 5th Tuesday of the month which is odd. By charter they are only required to have 3 meetings a month but usually have 4, they skipped last week. I asked a city councilor why this ‘Phantom’ meeting has appeared without an agenda and they told me ‘We don’t have a meeting next week.’ So Mr. City Clerk, how do these things just appear out of nowhere?
It’s likely time to cut bait with this employment situation, but doubtful anyone has the courage to face into it and do so.
The City clerk is simply taking queues from Progressive Paulie’s lead on running city government – just placing meeting scheduling software on cruise control.
In banana republic countries, this is called “Whac-A-Mole Democracy”….
