City Council Meeting, April 22nd

by Dino Corvino on April 23rd, 2008 • No Comments »

As most of us may have anticipated, the Mayoral veto on restructuring committee appointment procedures set the stage for a contentious City Council meeting here in Wausau last night. As a regular attender of said meetings, this was a night of firsts. This was the first time that I have ever seen the room full (perhaps people were expecting a dog fight of sorts). It was also the first time I have ever seen anyone register for comments in advance. And, it was the first time I have ever seen a Point of Order come from the crowd.

City of Wausau Committee Appointments

In case you were wondering who on the City Council is tasked with what?  Well, this document should be able to answer these questions.  In the past, these appointments have led to some clashes on the Council, and these might as well.

Your City government is yours though.  That is something that should not be forgotten.  These people are voted for by you, and for you.  They are acting in a role of service, as such we should thank them.  But also we need to be a part of this process.

Kristen Fish Resigns

I am honestly shocked by this turn of events.  Kristen Fish has resigned after 7 years with the City of Wausau.  We have tried to contact her, but was unable to reach her for comment.  No one gets pleasure out of seeing someone leave their job and career after so much success.
