Summary of my oral communications to 1/8/2019 5:30PM CCC Closed Session on
Recruiting a City Attorney
I appreciate the opportunity to speak at the start of your Closed Session.
I briefly stated that residents want a City attorney that will respect their signatures (Referendum) and votes
(Election) in light of the recent allegations, and a City attorney that will explain his/her reasoning in reaching
legal conclusions that affect the residents . Residents want legal transparency on the issues they supported and
voted on.
