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.
