So dumb it makes me want to scream!
It irks me when I read about a local official who does something dumb. Really dumb.
After all fighting dumb is what “Why Your City Council Makes Dumb Decisions and What You Can Do About It” is all about.
Then I read this from Orland, CA …
Mayor Wade Elliott’s suggestion to move City Council meetings from Monday to Tuesday nights was rejected by his colleagues this week.
Elliott brought the proposal up during the council’s comment period – even making a motion to adopt it – but it did not go far.
Elliott also asked to change the meeting time to 6 p.m. in order to get everybody home earlier, he said. Councilman Bruce Roundy advised him the change had not been agendized for action, so a vote could not be taken at Tuesday night’s council meeting.
Now I don’t give a hoot if Orland, CA holds their meetings on Monday or Tuesday. Or, what time they hold their meetings.
But a Mayor makes a motion on an issue that isn’t on the agenda?
It just makes me want to scream!
It gives all Mayors a bad name.
