Last month someone suggested the City should publish the agenda and resolutions for our monthly public meetings of council. Seems like a very reasonable request to me, in fact, it is something the public should reasonably expect the City to be obligated to do. I’ve asked why we aren’t doing this, but I haven’t followed up on that request yet. So, in the absence of any formal City policy, I will attempt to post all our monthly resolutions here prior to our meetings. I’ve typed them all out myself because I only receive a hard copy, so any mistakes in spelling and/or grammar are mine. Keep in mind, resolutions can be — and often are — pulled or added at the last minute. Enjoy.
