what will quorum requirements be for this meeting with three seated positions or 4 assigned positions - 3 seated and 1 vacant
ReplyDeletemajority of seated alderman positions (2 out of 3)
or majority of assigned alderman positions (3 out of 4) ?????
The agenda isn’t even legal. The mayor can’t even figure out how to do the job correctly. Maybe she should read Missouri Statue 610.022
ReplyDeleteShe wants to go after the clerk but can’t figure out how to do things the legal way!
It seems like the mayor has something against city employees and a pompous attitude towards the board. She is the mayor of Stottts City not Jefferson City
ReplyDeleteI have to disagree. Holding public officials and city employees accountable isn't the same as having something against them. The mayor's job is to ask questions, seek answers, and ensure the city is operating legally and transparently.
ReplyDeleteShe's the Mayor of Stotts City, and the citizens elected her to serve their interests. The focus should be on facts, transparency, and what's best for the community.
The board was also elected by citizens to serve their interests
DeleteUnless and until the “Mayor citizens” and the “Board citizens” find some “common ground” and define the “community interest(s)” with some sort of give and take, the process will continue to be them vs us and everybody will be in for a long grind until the next municipal elections
or
Even worse, a series of recall efforts, dissolution petitions, civil complaints, criminal complaints, and who knows what else
