Public Participation Discussed on WTCA AM 1050

In: Open Government|Respect for Voters|Transparency

15 Mar 2010

This morning I called into the WTCA AM 1050 morning show hosted by John Oliver and Tony Ross. They were kind enough to allow a discussion on the recent changes made by the Marshall County Council to eliminate public participation until the end of the public meetings. We all agreed that this rule change is the wrong direction for the council.

Why I'm Running

I believe in transparency and openness. County Council meetings should take place in the evening and not the morning when most people cannot attend. We should have full visibility to Council spending. I firmly believe that the tax payers deserve to know if their money is well spent, or simply wasted.
