Tree Committee:
First of all, it was irresponsible for you to schedule this meeting on a HOLIDAY. Many people go out of town for a 3-day
weekend like this and you
reduce the chance of public response when you schedule a meeting on a HOLIDAY.
Based on what I’ve observed over the past year, this committee (and the city as a whole) WANTS to reduce public input
so I’m guessing that
scheduling on a holiday was intentional.
Thanks to Matt Horn, who was promoted to Public Works Director when he proved his loyalty to the rich by gutting the
Tree Committee’s power, you are basically a lame-duck, toothless committee. It is embarrassing for a city that calls itself
a “tree city” to have a so-called Tree Committee with no power.
You should all resign in protest because you allowed yourself to be duped by Matt Horn. When you’re duped by a man
of the little intellect of someone like Matt Horn’s ilk, you should hang your heads in shame.
You embarrass yourselves and your city by continuing this sham—pretending like you’re a real Tree Committee.
Will Powers
