Staff runs this City

Update: As told to me by one Commissioner and the Mayor this morning, they relinquished their involvement and turned it over to Staff in order to move the issue quicker and keep politics out of the equation.

Not only did Staff shove out the entire City Commission and exclude them in the process, it sent out an e-mail on Thursday that this meeting would be held and that they could come if they wished.

It is the Commission that makes decisions such as these. This should have been a special City Commission meeting, not just a Staff meeting. It should have been noticed and we should have been able to listen to it on-line. And the Commission should have been able to hear all presentations--there weren't that many.

The e-mail sent out on Thursday to Valerie:
We rescheduled the presentations so that the City Commission can attend if they choose to, the presentations will now be on the morning of 10/25 & the schedule is as follows:

Who runs this City?
