The other night Council decided not to have an executive session, the first such meeting in a very long time. After the regular meeting we all went out and had a beverage together. It’s what we should have been doing all along. We acted like neighbors should act. It was a good thing. Maybe next time we can invite members of the Metro board. While I respect the roles of our consultants and advisors, maybe we should just talk as neighbors. Rather than focusing on “what’s in the city’s best interest”, we should focus on what’s in the best interest of people living in our community.
One Council member asked, “When are you going to write something positive about Council?” I believe a great action would be for council to withdraw the dissolution petition forthwith. You’ll see a rosy column in the wake of that action. Other People’s Money (yours!) is funding both sides of that issue. We should stop doing that.
Until that day, I hope to see you at the Master Association’s Independence Day celebration at Coyote Ridge Park. The Castle Pines Chamber is helping to host the event, as is The Connection. Keep in mind the library effort here in the community is in fund raising mode. The economy is tough, but if you have a couple extra bucks, support for the library in our community is most worthy of your consideration.
