Joy Hollingsworth engaged in several people who were giving public comment and started a dialogue with them after public comment had ended – something Sara Nelson never did – but I think the outcome already suggest this is a mixed bag – it is good to be accessible and accountable but when it’s not done in an organized manner it can lead to people demanding more and more until it gets out of hand. You can see all the back and forth on the Seattle Channel when they post the video later today.
Council meeting resumed and then concluded relatively quickly with little business to discuss.
Joy just made a commitment to meet with members of the public at the end of the City Council meeting. I am walking into that meeting now and we’ll see how it goes.
