That would necessarily include the public giving their opinions. I think they are trying to find the most practical way to do that. <br /> The only times they have had any problem is when there is a problem which involves a lot of people in a real way and urgent action is needed. Ex. when two hundred people had flooded basements because the city decided to flush the river when we had an eight inch rain and the flushing the river blocked the outlets for the storm sewers. <br /> It might be prudent to just call a special meeting just for a big event like that rather than try to fit it into a regular city cousel meeting.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
