City Council Meeting

I went to another city council meeting tonight. Not too much excitement to report. Fire department is wanting trucks in their fleet replaced. They are in dire need of some replacements from what I hear from a friend that is on the department.

A second phase to a subdivision was approved. I failed to ask the question I wanted to because they pushed things through pretty quick. I'd like to know if they are requiring new subdivisions to stub in for the sand wash secondary water. Most likely not because this council as those in the past have a problem looking far ahead into the future.

The police chief, who really doesn't have much care when it comes to how he looks. Pants sagging, black denims not dress pants, stands slouched. I just get the impression he doesn't have any respect for the title he holds. Anyway, he was asking for a raise across the board for his officers. Besides one officer who has been on the force for a long time, the oldest one has only been there for 6 years. 6 have been there under a year and a half.

Not much else went on to report about. They went into executive session again which means it was time for me to go home. Hopefully one day I can find out what that will be like.
