The Next Council Meeting:
5/01/2006

I submitted these questions to the town council:
1. I have twice attempted to solicit from the council some indication of your understanding of "public access television". On both occasions the council was unwilling or unable to provide useful answers to my questions, and instead provided what I would claim was a contrived pretense of confusion. Making the question as explicit as possible: You are about to enter into an agreement that gives you production control over a public access channel. I would inquire if any of you have read the federal law relevant to the regulation of "cable access channels" and do you intend to respect that law and the First Amendment Rights that law intends to protect?
5/1/06 response:The answer would be we have an attorney that guides us in our decisions, who researches these laws, and we will not break laws knowingly.
2. There have been newspaper reports indicating that a sergeant with the Borough Police force has "perpetrated" some conduct, that at minimum, could be described as evidence of bad character. Has the council, or does the council, intend to take any public action, or make any public statement, in response to the (reported) bad public behavior of the police officer?
5/1/06 response:This is a personnel issue, personnel issues are not brought before the public, and will not be discussed in public until action is taken.
3. The mayor has previously stated at a council meeting that he was again running for mayor. Local newspapers have reported that the mayor is not seeking reelection. Is there any reasonable explanation for this confusing circumstance?
5/1/06 response:actually no.......... end of public session. |
