by the way... Bv DORIS A. SANDERS THE COUNCIL Some of you who have been critical of actions taken by the city manager might he serving a better purpose by looking in to actions of some members of your city council. For over a year now, some— not all, but some members of your council have been conduct ing “secret” meetings to plan their strategy. It is to the credit of some of the couneilmen that they refuse to take part in these sessions, believing that council’s business is the pub lic's business and should be aired openly. In addition to the secret ses sions. council increasingly goes into "executive" session, again most of the time discussing business that should be discuss ed for the public consumption. If a majority of council votes to go into executive session, the mayor lias no choice but to allow it. One -urh se'-don wa- held Monday night of last week. The pies- always has been allowed to attend exee1.111 ve se-sicns of council, although w hat they hear i- not f ■ r publication. In the case of last Mon.lay night, one of the couneilmen who was instrumental m calling the Session, wanted to "rail it off” when he found pro-- represen tatives there. 1> this 'he 1 y pe councilman you helleVe should he taking care of York e.t\’s husiness, handling Yttl'R tax money? If the gentleman has anything to hide from the pre-s and the public, then lie lias no husiness on t lie council. To the mayor'' credit, he re fused to call off the meeting, and the objecting councilman stayed. I can understand why he wouldn't want anyone pres ent. His remarks about certain persons, mostly gathered from hearsay evidence, bordered close to being slanderous in some In-tances. Unfortunately ! cannot re port what went on at the meet ing becalm* it was an executive ses-iog, but I can and will ad- v,>e ui fh;i• y >u might con tact your members of eouned and ins i -t that 'lev conduct the r meet iii g ' publicly.
