City Attorney Responds to My Open Letter on Ethics

Mostly, he seems to think, nothing to see here and this isn’t within the committee’s purview. It’s sort of his mantra It will be interesting to see how the committee responds. After all, it wasn’t an open letter to the City Attorney, it was an appeal to the resident committee members to do their job and NOT defer to the city attorney on these matters.

It’s also interesting, he didn’t bother to tell me when they are meeting. No official word yet. I sure hope its a time when I can make it, they haven’t asked me about what dates might work.

Finally, interesting that he mails me a copy, when they received the info by email . . . nice way of being difficult. It just creates extra unnecessary steps to get it scanned. So, here it is!

I’ll have a more formal response to the letter next week, but for now, you can read the document and think about what your response would be. It’s kind of poorly written and hard to follow along with my original letter, he notes there were 28 recommendations, but then doesn’t really address them in a coherent or orderly fashion.

The real question that remains at the moment is, if they won’t address the issues in a comprehensive kind of a way, will it force me to file complaints? Cuz, I can. Or perhaps, someone else wants to, so they see that there are others concerned besides me? Yeah, I know, I’ve heard all the excuses about why people don’t want to stick their necks out and file complaints, and I totally understand, but if he’s forcing our hand . . . someone want to step up?
