  1. Maybe the reason the CC meeting was delayed is because the CC was unprepared to “go digital” and proceed using their taxpayer-funded phones.
    Unlike CC meetings, viruses don’t wait and cannot be adjourned or delayed.
    Meanwhile, the mayor is using the latest in communications technology (Facebook and the internet) to keep city residents up to date on crucial issues.
    While the CC was on a junket, the mayor was on active duty.

      1. Because those areas are people of color but it’s not true, influenza found in Asia and the Atlantic, America to Australia and beyond. Remember the Potato Famine, the Great Famine or the Great Hunger, all in the south of Ireland in the late 1840’s.

        1. Seriously Ron— because of people of color? Again and again and again you bring some type of race related reasons for things. Please just Google it to find out that it was named as such because of the shape of the molecule in the germ or whatever YOU would like to call it Ron, but it certainly has nothing to do with people of color. Geez!!
          Cheers!!

          1. Rich, research it yourself. Read the history of the Spanish Flu and you’ll see for yourself.

  2. What will happen in a week to change all of this? Plexiglass separating the council from their constituents? Plexiglass separating council members from one another? Nothing but they can say they did something?

  3. I saw in the paper where someone from Stratford was found guilty by the SEEC of voting from the wrong address. Most egregious was from the wrong town. Fined $300.

    So for all the time Maria spent on Jessica that would come out to $1 and hour.
    Way to go!!!

    1. And that’s the problem. There are no real penalties for violating the rules and laws in place. We all basically know that which of course is one of the main reasons of apathy at so many levels like voting, etc etc etc.

      1. Which is another reason why you need to give Maria a lot of credit. She knows that there are no real penalties as well and yet she keeps trying to correct the wrongs that she encounters.

      2. Rich, so you complain about Wanda Geter about AB without any proof that she’s did something wrong but how great Maria in questioning and filing complaints about AB, so why don’t you, Harvey and Maria put together legislation for the State House and Senate to pass to improve and strengthen AB voting process and to make the penalty for violations stronger. I’m sure that Maria, Harvey and you Rich, will be able to form a coalition in the State House and Senate for its passage.

  4. Ron. Been there done that, checked it out, know all about it. There is a saying that you just cannot win an argument with an ignorant person. So I guess I can’t win this argument with you- nor will I try.

  5. Why even chance gathering the council and the public for a `15 minute meeting?..Surely they could video conference it if need be.Seriously,nothing much gets done at these meetings,why chance it?

  6. The west took it as a joke in the beginning when it started in China. Now it seems to be coming to the containment point in china & from some bbc reports they may just have it pretty close to under control as far as dealing with the virus? Time will tell I guess however, most of the city council’s government business agenda’s are usually rubber stamped so waiting a few weeks won’t hurt. It might give them time to read some of the city’s proposals instead of just voting blind, no? ***JUST SAYING***
