Medford City Council Listens to Citizens!!!
MAY DAY! not APRIL FOOLS DAY, 02.05.2008 15:39
Major Shift in the City or Medford, Oregon. Medford City Council listens to its citizens. Wow. We are talking about a quantum leap!!!
Here in Southern Oregon last night's May 1, 2008 meeting of the Medford City Council was a milestone which people will remember for a very, very long time. Council listened to citizens and were swayed to fund the purchase of a home to be a shelter for teenage homeless youth. It happened, and although that might not seem like a big story from somebody who is far, far away, let me repeat: Here in these parts this was a Milestone Event!
Read more to hear more about a council that has a history of listening to Wal-Mart's high priced lawyers while it excludes its own citizens, a history of not even allowing resident's voices to be heard.
hiding this for later work....
