Mora repeatedly ignored the 120 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:40,280 board's will misrepresented the board and at times acted completely contrary to 121 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:44,840 board decisions in specific direction it is a pattern of bad behavior that 122 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:48,400 needs to be addressed officially by this board to reduce risk for the county and 123 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:52,340 restore the trust of our citizens the following are some examples of the 124 00:07:52,340 --> 00:07:58,840 unacceptable behavior, unauthorized representation of the board to the state and media, disclosure of 125 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:04,260 closed meeting content outside the closed meeting, interference and undue pressure on employees 126 00:08:04,260 --> 00:08:10,380 of the county, calling for emergency meetings that were not emergencies, making reactive 127 00:08:10,380 --> 00:08:15,320 impulsive decisions that unnecessarily disrupt governance and management of the county wasting 128 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:21,960 precious time and resources. Blocking the progress of board assigned committees, refusing to fulfill 129 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:27,240 the coordination role of chairman related to board legal representation, holding back vital 130 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:32,220 information from the board prior to regular board meetings, repeatedly disrupting the spirit 131 00:08:32,220 --> 00:08:37,380 of harmony and cooperation that the board strives to maintain, often conducts themselves 132 00:08:37,380 --> 00:08:41,960 in a rude and discourteous manner when addressing some individuals presenting to the board. 133 00:08:42,820 --> 00:08:47,360 Board members are responsible for protecting the rights of each individual member of the board, 134 00:08:48,180 --> 00:08:53,160 County administrative employees and the public as a group we govern policy and 135 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:57,520 legislation. One single individual on the board cannot operate you know 136 00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:02,060 laterally without the board's approval. That is why I second the motion. 137 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:09,520 This speech is nice but not entirely true. This council might understand and is or 138 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:14,540 maybe you should share some light on this. My understanding is going to be removed by the 139 00:09:14,540 --> 00:09:22,700 Court. Is that true? I think the motion is to remove you as chairman not from the board. 140 00:09:23,220 --> 00:09:26,480 That's correct. Justice chairman. That's as I understand it. 141 00:09:27,260 --> 00:09:34,780 And your feeling is that's... You became chairman by a vote of the board, correct? 142 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:36,800 Yes. 143 00:09:38,990 --> 00:09:41,370 So that's what you feel is correct? 144 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:58,920 Yes, if you were appointed to the position of chair by motion, then the way to remove you as chair would also be by motion, but you would continue in full force as a member of the Board of Supervisors. 145 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,060 It does nothing to affect that. 146 00:10:08,190 --> 00:10:10,590 That's the decision that the board wants to take. 147 00:10:13,310 --> 00:10:13,850 The whole 148 00:10:13,850 --> 00:10:17,230 lot of things that both of y'all made wasn't exactly true, but we're not going to debate 149 00:10:17,230 --> 00:10:17,930 that here tonight. 150 00:10:23,130 --> 00:10:24,570 So what do you want to hear now?
