Council Meeting May 2, 2011

[admin]

The next council meeting is at 7:30 in borough hall. This is the final hearing on the municipal budget. Residents are very strongly encouraged to attend. I did have a lengthy chat with Councilman Newman and there will be some good information that people do not want to miss.

This turned out to be a very good meeting. I am going to wait until I see all of the articles from other local media, post those links and then fill in the blanks from there.

The only thing I will say for now, Councilman Newman did a terrific job and did all the right things. The rest of the council made themselves out to be fools. Full explanation pending.

Take the time to read this, it is a good article. Now that the loa media have all published their versions, I will be posting on this in the future. There were some key quotes that were missed and really need to be addressed.

From the article:

Newman later told the News Transcript, “I think the people who attended the (May 2) meeting were able to gauge how my ideas are generally received by this council. The best option for change is to air my ideas directly to the public for their judgment, as the council has clearly placed politics and personal attacks at the top of their agenda.”
