Yesterday I went to the Government Structure meeting and they spent most of the time talking about housing and transportation - and other basic needs that people need met before they are going to participate in government.

I stopped doing these cuz they make me mad . . . the "week ahead" is a farce. There are typically 4 - 10 additional meetings that pop up during the week and you have to do these daily to keep up. Here's the 4 meetings that showed up yesterday, there will likely be more this week.

2 meetings tonight, press conference tomorrow.

Only 4 meetings this week. 3 of them at 3pm, 8:15am and noon. None on Monday or Tuesday.

Of interest this week: Buckeye/Cottage Grove Rd deal, adopting the Comprehensive Plan?, Government Structure Committee meeting at a normal time for a change (not during the day or a Friday night), 1st meeting of the two new Transportation Committees, tour the Cross Fit Games, Oscar Mayer Open House and more! Meetings at 10am, 12pm, 1pm, 8:30am - who attends these meetings? - most alders at work, many interested public members are too. 20 meetings this week, 4 are notices of possible quorum. 3 meetings in legistar not on clerks agenda, watch for those and others to appear throughout the week.

I'm posting this just when the council meeting is started . . . forgot it was Tuesday and got caught up in other things!...
