September 16 Council Meeting - Many questions 2

So the Council hired an attorney.

How did that happen? To get services for an attorney they have to ask for a proposal. This is one of the things you learn when you study local government. RFP - Request for Proposal is required.

EVEN if the attorney wants to volunteer his time? Yup! The council can not just contract with someone.

There has been many meetings but there has not been any vote by the Council according to minutes and attendance at meetings.

SO - how did the Council hire an attorney?

And then in the paper there is this: Among the allegations... ... and using taxpayer money to research the possibility of bringing criminal charges against DeSmet and others.

Well what is it the Three are doing ??? Oh wait. Spending money hiring an attorney to bring criminal charges against the Mayor. (which goes against Councilor Desmet's tirade about the cost to hire one)

Pot meet Kettle!
