Subject:External Email : Closed sessions
It is difficult for me to understand how you can meet weekly as a council in closed session and restrict yourself to only
discussing topics that are legally permitted. It doesn’t seem humanly possible. Does the city attorney interrupt you
when you begin to discuss public business?
Mr. Kalmick is quoted in the paper as saying it’s “too cumbersome to set up teleconferencing” with the public. Yes.
However City Council meetings have been broadcast over local TV in the past. That combined with accepting email
comments would seem to be a straightforward way to hold a non‐secret meeting and to receive public comment as well.
Thank you for your care and hard work,
David Philips
