8 Feb City Council meeting . . and a poem

alison.legislature.state.al.us

State legislators came to listen to us on the 22nd and then we had a city council meeting on the 25th - - here are my observations and thoughts.

Listen in on our conversation about the 11 Jan 24 Huntsville City Council meeting ... especially talk about the Sustainability Commission, commission structure and function generally, and council procedures. Don't worry! It's not as boring as it sounds!

Enjoy this talk with an experienced local activist and her time working on a city commission and other organizations and what we think needs to change. Thanks for listening.

Rollicking good and far-ranging conversation INCLUDING live music. A great great start to the new season of HSV Progressive Podcast. Thank you for listening.

I laugh my way through some notes about the last meetings of the year! Happy New Year! See you on the flip side.
