Friends and neighbors,
You may have noticed a posting from Council member Ebbeler under the
heading "Attendance at Town Meetings". The main issue at stake is that
Ebbeler has missed the last 6 legislative meetings dating all the way back
to July of last year. The Charter states that any member who misses 3
consecutive meetings shall have their seat declared vacant and an election
will be held to fill it.
You should also be aware that this has become the norm with Ebbeler as he
has only attended 5 of the 21 meetings held over the past year.
The Council will be deciding how to address this matter at this coming
Monday's Legislative Meeting. I hope that interested residents of Ward 1
will be in attendance.
Having virtually abandoned his seat you can imagine how Ebbeler might be
tempted to lash out at me and probably soon his colleagues on the council
as he faces consequences for his neglect. So expect more attempts to
deflect attention from his neglecting his duties.
As a resident living in Ward One, I believe that we deserve better and an
opportunity to choose a new person to TRULY represent us.
Vern
