November was a month to give thanks: thank you to the passionate, knowledgeable, and sometimes goofy city council members who provided us with a healthy dose of policymaking–and a healthier dose of entertainment. As the leaves fell from the trees, we fell into the middle of some terrific meeting material.
We chronicled:
3 council meetings
In 3 states
With a combined population of
54,300
We saw
Two socks with a retiring councilman’s face on them
One mayor know his sines, cosines, and tangents
Two rounds of applause that made one employee uncomfortable
4 podcast interviews, including the lady who was “too sweet” to be a council member and the mayor whose council reenacted a 100-year-old meeting
1 former podcast guest give us a shout-out while honoring a city council legend
And I hope you’ll join me in sending positive vibes to the fine men and women who know when to hold ’em and know when to pass ’em (ordinances, that is):
