Tabled

The City Commission decided at tonight's meeting to table ordinance #9749, which would have created an Animal Shelter/Enforcement Advisory committee, until June 3, the next City Commission meeting. And for good reason.

According to Mayor pro tem Bronson, commissioners received phone calls from citizens asking questions and wanting more time to think about what the staff report indicated before they voiced their opinions. This report only became available to the public last Friday.

It's a good sign, and one we aren't used to, when commissioners respond to the citizens like they should. Let's hope the trend continues.

Hope springs eternal...let's hope the mayor watches tonight's meeting preserved on the invaluable Cable 7, a line of defense in our quest for transparency. The mayor pro tem established the standard, let's hope to keep it.
