2 pm WED meeting - Looks like a time that only a special elite group can attend.

They just never quite get it.. here we go again

Does our mayor have Wednesday afternoons off ???

Yes, the time and day are a bit inconvenient for the workin' guy or girl.

Was anyone allowed to attend this meeting ?

Jackie Melton said...

Yes, anyone who could manage to attend such a meeting at 2 p.m. on a weekday was allowed to attend this meeting but there was some talk about future closed meetings because of confidentiality issues. There was talk about, even in that case they wanted to have "transparency" and make sure that people were given clear reasons for why any given meeting might be closed. The next meeting will likely be held in a larger room at the Chamber of Commerce.

It is all about power. Knowledge is power. If I know who the candy dates are and you don't I have more power than you.
simple.

The subtle message we receive is we are peons and we don't know enough to be trusted with knowledge.

Hogwash! I got just a mind to attend every meeting and blog about it.
