The City Council has been frustrating the Citizens by not being able to address issues not on the agenda, or express an opinion or take action if it is "Not On the Agenda".
However, Prior to the Public Meeting Mayor Ferre indicates she has taken a position in support of the Blue Mt. Senior Villa's and getting on with the construction.
Has she got an opinon on AES? Oh, no we can't discuss that as it is not on the agenda...
When the Public can't get answers to items on the agenda. When the Public can't get items on the agenda so they can be discussed and resolved. The Public is correct in asking is the government of the people or ON the People.
Support or not the BMSV. The process, the lose ends needing to be fixed... the redesign, and the change in the City's General Plan so the BMSV and the EIR will fit and then could be supported in court is procedurally backward. Let Joe Citizen try to do the same thing and see how receptive the Council and City Management will be.
