'Ok, everyone. I am going to put this comment into a post so that I can make sure it's seen.
Here are the answers we have:
No, there is no video of the 1/20 council meeting, where you can see for yourself the reactions of council and listen to their statements as they reviewed board meeting attendances. No, that is not normal and yes, it is something that you should all be upset over. Totally inappropriate given the current climate.
Yes, your board applications are in. They look great. Murphy is not re-submitting, tomorrow night's meeting will show if that stands. Beckley is. Jon Zalinski and his latest venture 'Treadz' has stepped up for the tourism seat. Great choice. The next move we feel should happen is for Peter Tijm to resign from the Chamber Board if he wishes to sit the Tourism Board as long as the chamber is the marketing vendor.
Scott Hemmen has stayed the course for the resident seat. Retain him, even though Judy O'Donnell is the best pick ever to be strong enough to also stay the course. When the next resident seat is available, we hope Judy steps up. Scott is settled in and should stay, in our view.
Yes, we see the staying away from the PI Hub that many are doing. We feel that is the very best thing for you to do. If you want to chat with us, we are over on Sandbox. No, it is not safe on the PI Hub. This morning, as I write this, one of the predator trolls that hub is infested with has showed up. Probably because of today's news media reports, Russ Arensman and Dirk Myers putting up their websites and blogs. Because it is standard news, SandBox has posted and we have commented. 'FCL' gave a great commentary for us on Russ's news that started it off. Of course, predator trolling is going to start again on the PI Hub, there is no longer an opening to get close elsewhere.
You need to take your own stand. The good news, is that Russ has comments open on his blog and we are sure he would welcome you.
Dirk Myers has a great website up and we notice he has extended himself to you on the PI Hub. Take him up on that and communicate with these guys in a safe and controlled environment.
No, we will not be on either one, there is simply no safety. You can find us on SandBox, along with the vast majority of previously censored by the PI avatars. Just click on the title of this post and you will get there.
Here's Arensman's blog: http://arensman4gws.com/
Here's Dirk Myers site. Looks like he is moving fast to get it up to speed, but it's there. Frankly, impressive. http://www.dirkmyers.com/
'smalltown8' encourages every council candidate to set up a blog arena and chat ability for 81601. It's not as easy as it sounds to guarantee anonymity. Likely, you won't. Come to think of it, every sitting seat on the big boards should also have a blog and chat ability that guarantees anonymity.
But sooner or later, the leaders in this town need to step up and openly acknowledge that they have a very real and very serious concern.
Time for change.
Time for the end of an era.
Time to come out of the shadows and work for what a community wants and needs. Not just a self-appointed elite circle of a few.
Watch your council meeting tomorrow night, folks. If you need to, access through the link in the post below.'
