A Good Sign......Or Not

I copied the e-mails in separate posts . I have tried copying more than one item into a single post before .  It proved to be problematic. Wrestling with nonsenical problems doesn't seem like a good use of time. So...I have simply done the simple thing.

Last night I indicated  I would copy  Councillor Abel's response. He stated it was inappropriate to be doing town business by e-mail and required me to remove him from  the list. Like he didn;t want to be tainted by association. 

No other Councillor has reacted  that way. It has occurred to me Councillor Abel  may have been unaware  I had sent the e-mails to the Clerk requesting they be added  to the agenda as late items on Tuesday.

Late  items are often added to the Agenda. A motion has to be  moved and seconded and approved. h

Procedure requires all items  for the agenda to be in the clerk's hands on Thursday ,I think by 4 o'clock.

Anyway, an e-mail  is merely a communication between parties. Nothing is exchanged  except information. No  town business is being conducted. Certainly no decisions.

I never write anything  I would be embarrassed to have read publicly.

There is always the opportunity to take pieces out of context. But my goodness, if a person is afraid of their own shadow, politics is not a comfortable pew. 

I am sharing the correspondence with you because it's not on the agenda and can't be before business hours in Monday. Maybe not even then.

Even if it is forwraded , none of it may be discussed. It entirely depends on goodwill from at least one Councillor. Since I regard all three ideas  are in the public interest ,I do hope  they will be discussed 

and acted upon. 

I think  it's in Council's interest to tie up  these loose ends before the end of the term. And maybe there are others.

I am hopeful my ideas  are shared.

I have not received any other negative response. 

That could be a good sign. Or nor
