ummm…clips are nice, but we want names!
September 3rd, 2009 at 9:02 am
…and by names I mean the various committee members who up and left.

Everyone except the Mayor (who was, apparently, kurfuzzled by Alison’s address; he had not noticed them leaving apparently), Connie Martin, and Jackie Doherty.
That is, Regina Faticanti, Dave Conway, Jim Leary, and John Leahy were the ones to leave. I am told they left within moments of each other, and we have no idea where they went, but obviously if they met together to discuss any SC business, that would be a violation of the Open Meeting Laws. Just sayin’.

If those 4 did meet outside of the chambers and discussed business, then they were certainly in violation of the open meeting law. As for Ms Laraba - she’s got my vote since I am obviously NOT going to vote for Regina. Now could someone please remind me which ones voted for those outrageous administratots’ raises.

If they didn’t find any bodies in the hallway, I’m guessing Regina was just using the restroom.

Ms Laraba has my vote …. as I too am not voting for Regina. Thank you to Ms. Laraba for placing her name on the ballot and giving the citizens of Lowell some chance for change.
