Well, That Didn't Take Long ...

Editor's Note:
First is the city manager's own words as found in the "Guest Commentary" in the Eagle. The second section is an attempt to take the city manager up on his words, statements and promises.


City Manager:
"As we grow, we recognize that communications and information sharing is an important attribute of successful communities."

"One of our goals this year is to expand and share information through guest commentaries, letters to the editors, e-correspondence, online city council agenda packages, communication surveys and a new and enhanced Web site."

Now, read this exchage to accomplish the above ...

Mr. Moss your answer is a cop out. There are no legal reasons to prevents a joint interview.

Bill and Doug:

Would you be agreeable to me doing a civilized interview with the two of you about the STRP and assessment rate system so we could put the issue "to rest" so to speak? I've done this sort of article many times at other papers on issues and with candidates in local, state and Congressional elections.

Just let me know what afternoon(s) and time(s) are good for you. We could do it at the conference room at City Hall or my conference room here at the paper. I look forward to it..

Thanks
