Circling The Drain

I know. I know. GeeGuy beat me to the scan yesterday (-: , but here it is again.






Do you ever get the feeling we (the city) are circling the drain? That nobody is minding the store? From my understanding, this document was handed out at one of yesterday's meetings and that was that. No discussion, no nothing.


Does the city attorney, Dave Gliko, have any involvement in this? Is his role as the city attorney with matters regarding SME/ECP relegated to the back burner, because we supposedly have attorneys representing the city, even though they also represent SME? (I still don't understand that one).

And Commissioner Attorney Bronson, where is he?

I really shouldn't be too surprised though by his lack of comments and questions. At the March 4 City Commission meeting, I was sitting near Doug Bennyhoff, the Fire Marshall, and before the meeting, Commissioner Bronson was talking to him about Great Falls' emergency services. In so many words, Bronson made the comment that emergency services was the one issue he knew something about, but that he didn't know much about the others. Unfortunately, he didn't say he was going to make an effort to at least try to get informed about them either.


As GeeGuy pointed out here, "We have to find a way to help Mary Jolley stand up to staff and, frankly, to the other four members of the Commission to get some results for the citizens".
