Views & Opinions

 

It is difficult to share my views and opinions regarding our city in any public forum. If I were to address an issue on social media and more than one other council member were to address, it could be a violation of the Open Meetings Act. If they don’t address, then it could appear that they don’t care or agree, both are unfair to the council. By addressing my views in this website, I am not inviting opinions or comments from the remainder of the commission; nor, is there any expectation of the same.


My hope is to inform the public and future commissions of what I have learned, clear up misconceptions and encourage others to engage in finding solutions to assist ALL of our citizens.


In addressing the several issues, I will use the date of the writing to organize my recollections. 


 

04 Feb 2024  The preliminary count of the votes was 170-48 (10% of the City in total) in favor of my recall.  To say I'm disappointed would be an understatement; however, I am not deterred.  This will soon provide more freedoms to speak without the constraints, officially or traditionally, with regards to sitting on the commission.  I hope to dispel the myths and lies and more importantly, to continue to serve Ranger. I will be able to publicly address additional issues that need correction in the city.
