Mayor Lyn Truitt

In my view, Mayor Lyn Truitt as seen on the video of the meeting held June 11th voted spending the $100,000 for the sign, because it was in the 2009 Budget and being in the Councils Contingency Fund could not be carried over into the 2010 Budget.

 

 

This was the reason Vice-Mayor Joe Johnson with the assistance of City Manager Randy Oliver put this on the agenda right away, after being turned down in the previous council meeting.

 

 This Council and City Manager is not spending the tax payer’s money prudently.

Youth Leadership Summit

January 31, 2009

 

Another productive partnership between the City, Dysart School District, Rio Salado College and the business community brought a Youth Leadership Summit to Willow Canyon High School this morning. Initiated by Councilman Williams, this opportunity for our high school youth will expose them to new ideas and give them a better understanding of the challenges that we face as a community.

These youth are volunteering a part of their Saturdays throughout the school year for this program. It was great to see the unified effort of so many individuals that gave their time to ensure this kickoff was a success. My thanks to everyone involved.

Council Meeting 1/08/09 Item#23

To: Mayor
Cc: Randy Oliver
Subject: 1/08/09 Item #23      

 

Hi! Lyn 

Thought you should know. There might have been an over sight on your part, by not asking if there were any public comments on Item #23 before taking a vote. If so, can this be ratified in another meeting? 
 

 

Bob:   

  

I checked with the City Attorney and he advises me the item was properly noticed and a call to the public is not required.  Someone who wished to discuss this item could do so, however, at the beginning of the meeting.  The same applies to Commission appointments (i.e. there is no call to the public).   Randy

    It appears that governing is a learning process in the purest form. Hope that you can understand what we received from Randy better then I can, isn’t this explanation for the call to the public rather then for the Public Hearing Items. You and the previous Mayor of Surprise, before taking action, on the Public Hearing Items have always said, is they’re anyone in the public that wants to speak on this item.  According to what the City Attorney has said this is not necessary. Lots of Luck, Bob

Hi Bob,          

You are right, we do not speak on agenda items at the public hearing.  There was no need to have a call to the public on the vice-mayor position.  It was added after the original agenda went out so it was the last item before the council requested agenda and workshop items. 

I hope this clarifies,Lyn

Up date on old city hall

Sent: Wednesday, January 14, 2009 10:41 AM
To: Lyn Truitt
Cc: Randy Oliver
Subject: Old city hall  

 

Morning Lyn, 
Have there been any open meetings held in regards to what we are going to do with the old city hall? 
  
As always, Bob Vukanovich 
  Bob:  

There have been no public meetings on this issue yet.  City staff received four proposals and interviewed three firms.  The fourth firm only wanted to provide real estate brokerage services (i.e. act as Agent to lease the property).  The other three are high tech/biotech type firms.  We have narrowed the responses to one firm and are trying to determine if we can negotiate a deal that makes practical and economic sense.  I would expect to have a staff recommendation in the next 30 days.  At that time we will ask the Mayor and Council to either reject all the proposals or consider a deal. All the deal points will be made public if a deal is considered by the elected officials.    

Hope that answers your questions. 

Randy
