Report Inappropriate Comments

A huge thanks to Matt Bower and the citizens of Manatee County who came to speak during public comment. Matt’s comments were right on target as the public is paying either way because we will not leave McClash to pick up the tab for this alone. Kruse was also right on target with his comments. Those citizens coming to discuss the dam and flooding- please keep coming. This board has the ability to share information with the citizens, yet they keep canceling workshops and refuse to have any real discussion on stormwater issues during meetings. This problem is not going away and needs to be addressed. Again, the meeting ended at 11:30am and there was one citizen on the phone for public comment. Instead of taking the one last citizen you pushed them off until later so clearly public comments are still not important. Reverse all you want. Too little too late, the minority will be voted out in 2 years- because citizens will not forget.
