City Week Ahead

Only 17 meetings? Hmmm, expect updates. Last week there was only one! 16 of 17 (94%) of the meetings start before 5:30. 5 of 17 (30%) are before 4:30. Lobbyists paid to attend meeting a-ok. Working folks, we don’t really care so much what you have to say and aren’t interested in you attending our meetings. At least that is what I see in the actions taken to schedule meetings.
