Agenda request from Robin

On Sunday September 21, 2014 I sent an email to Dan Vogt, City Administrator and Mayor Cathy VanRisseghem requesting to be put on the agenda of the Little Falls City Council meeting on October 6, 2014 to present suggestions for the development of an ethics/conflict of interest policy.  The email was sent within the required one week prior notice time period to get on the agenda. 

The last time I asked to be on the agenda(request emailed in May 2013), they denied my request to present and also denied Theresa Skorseth.   Theresa asked to be put on the council agenda to request the defunding of the illegal use of public funds given to the Sister City Committee. 

The public should know that the Little Falls City government staff and Council do not operate under an ethics/conflict of interest policy.  This is a problem that I hope they are willing to rectify.  

For 3 years, the Council has been stifling, limiting, or outright denying Theresa and myself, time to present our ideas to the public. 

This will be an issue during the upcoming elections. 

It must be.

If they can deny us, they can and will deny anyone.

Councils track record is unacceptable.
