um in the front we support and we
encourage public comment public comment
[0:05]
is a privilege not a right
um so I'm covering bodies are not
[0:09]
required to have public comment on the
agenda but under our town ordinance it's
[0:14]
allowed subject to very reasonable rules
adopted by Council and I'm going to read
[0:18]
just a few of these that are pertinent
um
[0:21]
to the entire segment so you speak three
minutes regardless of whether the person
[0:27]
is speaking on their behalf or as an
agent for others meeting attendees may
[0:32]
not donate transfer yield or if all or
any portion of their speaking time to
[0:36]
another person all public comments are
be conducted from the podium and
[0:40]
directed to this Council as a whole and
not to any member thereof all speaker
[0:45]
shall be mindful and respectful of those
participating in or present at the
[0:50]
meeting they shall be expected to be
civil in their language and child
[0:53]
refrain from comments or behavior that
involves disorderly speech reaction and
[0:57]
calling personal attacks threats abstain
or indecent remarks or disrupted actions
[1:02]
you shall confine your comments to the
jurisdiction of this
[1:06]
um Council and this is not a period
where you promote advertise Awards
[1:11]
businesses Services Goods or candidates
for public office anyone that violates
[1:16]
these rules will be ruled out of order
and this is pursuant to our section 2.49
[1:21]
of the town code
[1:56]
let me just finish the very first thing
as you may not donate transfer yield or
[2:01]
giving any time you were present and we
would honor we would love to hear your
[2:05]
public comment but you have to get it if
Mr hogling is that he's up here one time
[2:10]
and you're not going to be able to give
yourself the way it works no I'm sorry
[2:14]
it's not the way it works
[2:22]
you serve the public we don't serve you
so let me let me have my comment a POA
[2:52]
[Music]
[2:59]
we have reasonable rules of protocol if
you do not like our rules you can go out
[3:05]
and call your attorney and file another
lawsuit against us
[3:10]
but I am sorry okay go ahead I'll finish
go ahead thank you and then I will let
[3:15]
you talk okay
[3:19]
and we would love for her to come up but
what I've seen is really when she speaks
[3:24]
it's very respectful and she puts out
the issues of the day she is here she
[3:29]
cannot yield or transfer her time to you
if she does then you're speaking for her
[3:35]
and you're not going to be able to speak
your public comment those are our rules
[3:39]
okay so okay ready all right so um
read yours first sir um
[3:47]
the power of attorney that has been
presented by Miss Greely is not in
[3:51]
accordance with the southbound uniform
um Power attorney act it's not properly
[3:56]
witnessed notarized neither does it have
the language that is required on Section
[4:01]
62-8-120 so we do not have to
um acknowledge this but even if we did
[4:08]
Mr Hogan you personally whether it is
donated by somebody else whatever you
[4:14]
are limited to three minutes now when
you want your three minutes to start
[4:17]
we'll start it but you will not get six
you'll get three I I'm I'm gonna you're
[4:21]
not gonna be allowed to violate her
power returning you're not going to be
[4:25]
allowed to do that and I'm going to make
my three-minute comment and if you don't
[4:28]
want to hear my comment or my comment
from us really you could certainly leave
[4:33]
the room yourself I'm not going to leave
the room this this is not your house
[4:36]
it's our house you serve us you serve
the citizens we don't serve you I think
[4:42]
you all are confused about who serves
who you see a notary on this yeah you
[4:46]
know what that we're claiming that's a
legal document you want to argue that
[4:50]
and if you want us to get that all
notarized and all that other stuff
[4:55]
this is a business meeting which where
we allow public comment I would suggest
[5:01]
you reading your public comment if you
think it's more important because you're
[5:05]
going to read three minutes I'm going to
get up I'm going to get up I'm going to
[5:07]
read this one and I'm gonna get up read
mine and then you're gonna yes

[6:02]
ask the top hard questions to current
officials to fully answer example Perry

passing itself though well you can pull
out a foia in the law or not we don't
[6:11]
want lawyer and political answers or
Wars no answer taxpayers elect officials
[6:15]
based on a very simple reason and
guiding principle they agree to comply
[6:19]
to their campaign promises and agree to
approve spend and guard our tax money
[6:23]
like their own family money not continue
to vote for illegal tax use and water
[6:27]
violations with no transparency please
