feeling that the best means of
budget spending is to reduce
'overhead
I want the record to show
that I favor the operation of
city government be controlled
by the governing body, as
representatives of'the people,
and not by in-house bureacrats
or department heads.
The time has come for the
individual members of city,
government to stand and be
- recognized for their actions on
behalf of the periple and not the
department heads
The agenda for each cou-
ncil meeting allows for Citizens
participation and I strongly
urge that all interested citi-,
zens attend and be recognized
to have input in their com-
munity affairs.
