So glad these folks stepped up. The low voter turnout results in these people getting elected. Everyone who cares should send emails and show up at the council meetings. These four complained about lack of transparency and that people were treated poorly at the meetings. They honestly believe and are counting on the people who disagree with them are going to stay home. They believe in mob rule, as long as it’s their mob. A mob of citizens concerned and watching the antics of these four might result in a reduction of these performances. Show up. Watch them. Question their motives. Educate yourself. Vote in every election. The new good old boys are counting on voters to stay home. Show them the door.

Please show up, even if it’s sending an email to council members. Better yet, attend council meetings. Complacency and apathy are what got us here. Don’t assume everyone else is going to write to council or show up in person. Do your part. Please.
