Citizens CAN Comment on Five Rivers Update

On Friday in this blog I argued that the "Five Rivers Update" scheduled to be delivered during the "Whatever else is pertinent or for the good of the city" portion of the June 13th Oshkosh Common Council meeting should be moved up in the agenda so as to give citizens a chance to comment on it. Councilors Meredith Scheuermann and Bryan Bain said that they would try to help get the item moved in the agenda. Mr. Bain just posted this message in the blog linked above:

"Mayor Castle has agreed with my request to move 'Whatever Else is Pertinent or for the Good of the City,' which will be an update on Five Rivers, to before 'Citizen Statements' so that citizens will have an opportunity to speak on the issue and comment on the update. He will announce this at the beginning of tomorrow's meeting." -Bryan

Many thanks to Bryan Bain for his efforts in trying to ensure citizens have the opportunity to participate meaningfully on Five Rivers.

Meanwhile the Northwestern on Tuesday presents even more evidence that the developer did not even come close to doing what he was supposed to do by May 31st.
