In Her Own Words

At the council meeting of March 3rd 2007 several issues where raised. Not the least of which was some issues with the proposed development on page. Also, Mayor Purzner, Councilman Owensby, Councilman Sellers and Councilman Knode all walking out of the meeting when it was not properly adjourned (the majority on the Council voted against adjournment) which also prevented the Council from going into executive session. The City is currently dealing with several lawsuits and the majority of the Council wanted to discuss options to resolve these issues. Executive Session is generally where these discussions happen. Since we could not have one I imagine the City can expect the unnecessary legal costs to continue to climb.

I am currently working on the video of the meeting as well as researching some of the issues that arose there. However, I thought I would share one piece of video early.

At this meeting while delivering the Public Works report (as the public works director was absent yet again) Mayor Purzner said something that I believe the Residents of Overland should really take to heart. She commented briefly on the concept of personal responsibility and how actions have consequences. It will be interesting to see how many residents agree with her position on these issues come April 3rd.
