Tulelake, CA— Applications, Day and Time Change

Since Bob Hugebanks decided to resign rather than face yet another recall by the recall group and cost the city more funds for a special recall election. He felt it was best for the city to resign his seat as a Tulelake City Council Member.

People interested can apply for the vacant seat once the advertising for it has been approved at the next city council meeting on Monday February 2, 2014 at 7:00 PM.

On the agenda is discussion for dog license fee increase as well as the day and time for future city council meetings.

It has been a long going situation where this recall group who does not get their way go about instigating recall petitions. That is not how civilized communities get city business done. But this group seems to think if they yell “fire” in a crowed building they can get their way. Just like the boy who keeps crying wolf after a while someone stands up and says, “enough already”.

This group may think since I am no longer attending city council meetings that they have won. That could not be further from the truth as I will still continue to write on city council meetings rather I am there physically or not. There is not a thing they can do about it. It is called the first amendment and it supercedes any stunts they have tried to pull in the past.

The news reporting will go on with or without them and I do not have to personally attend to do it. I know enough background information about what is going on in this city. People talk and share with me what is going on and they are very reliable sources.

I can read between the lines and I will keep the community of Tulelake informed by way of the written word and there is not a thing they can do to stop me from exercising my first amendment rights all the way the Superior Court and beyond.
