According to the headlines, Mr. Doyon wants to know his role in the Highwood project. Should he be taking time away from the city to attend monthly meetings held in Billings?
I believe he should. After all, the number one criteria the City Commission required when headhunting for a new manager was that he support the project. Unfortunately, he has an incredibly steep learning curve, but it is the number one issue facing this city.

I think it would be a very good idea to have Mr. Doyon, as a newcomer, attend these meetings so he can ask questions and hear first hand what is being discussed. Perhaps only then will certain aspects about this project start coming to light. Coleen Balzarini has been involved with this mess since the beginning and is up to her derriere in alligators over it. I want the new manager to come to his own conclusions without relying on Ms. Balzarini to inform him about everything. After all, he's the one on the hot seat, not her.
It's a breath of fresh air to actually have a city manager ask for direction from the commission, rather than the other way around.
I hope they are up to the task.

I think he should go also. After all, what is a couple of days? He needs to open the door on this mess, and see it for himself. I hope Doyden is as wide away as i hope him to be. Our city is in a world of hurt right now.
