Do We Have Trained Elected Officials?

City Council members, like School Board Members are required to get training. 

One does not automatically know how to run a city simply because ONE got the most votes. Why are we not demanding that our City Council members be required to participate in this mandated training? 

When one attends City Council meetings, one notices the lack of knowledge of the real workings of a City. The "Quality of Life" for all residents will improve when elected officials begin to understand their roles. They must begin to set better examples for our children. 

They have been chosen by popular vote and must begin to show more desirable character traits. Children need better role models. Children need to see City Officials engaged in the Scholarly Pursuit of information to improve the "Quality of Life" for all residents. Study up City Council. We are giving you a failing grade.

WE ARE THE CITY!!!
