A resolution "Introduced by: The President of the Council" (Gail Bartkovich) is absolutely anti-democratic. It would require that citizens submit 2 WEEKS IN ADVANCE any written or electronic documentation that they want to present at a public hearing conducted by the Council on proposed legislation, etc.
Why should a member of the public be restrained like this from presenting at a public hearing whatever he or she wants the Council to consider?
Ms. Bartkovich should address that point at the Council meeting tomorrow when this matter is on the agenda (or ask Louise Smith to do so).

I can only speak for myself - but from what I have witnessed out of the current County Council membership - this is the best County Council I've ever witnessed in my lifetime.
For those County Council members who may be reading this comment
"This is no time to be resting on your laurels"
Just stay the coarse.
