Manager’s Responses to City Council Motions now on Web Site

by at 1:04 pm.

Did you every want to know what happened to all of those motions made by the City Councilors during Tuesday night meetings? Did you ever want to know what the responses from the City Manager were to those motions?

Guess what? You are now in the know. As we had previously discussed, the City web site is providing more and more information; such as agendas of the various regulatory boards and names and term expiration of members of these various commissions, committees and Boards.

But the best additions are on the relatively new City Manager’s page. The two links are Outstanding Motions and City Manager’s Responses.

Now, the citizens of Lowell have direct access to this information which in the past had extremely limited distribution; and when we heard or read about the details, they were often filtered through a slanted lens.

Thank-you to the City Councilors, CM Bernie Lynch and CIO Miran Fernandez.

    LOL…first item on the Outstanding Motions list:

    9/12/06
    C. Broderick

    * Request the City Manager report on the possiblity of posting responses to Council Motions and request on the City Website.

    Mission accomplished! Brilliant!

    I just have to chime in again.

    AWESOME!!! Anyone still think it was a mistake to change CM’s now? (Sorry, I just couldn’t resist…I just couldn’t ever picture we’d get this kind of access to information only a short year ago…) This is so very cool.

    I double the thanks to CM Lynch and CIO Fernandez and the CC.

    Mimi, thanks for the update and the link. Am very happy to be moving into a city that has a newly moved in CM, as well. I most appreciate the local aspect of LinL, and hope it is not lost in transition/translation over the next year.
