On the Schedule This Week

As of Saturday morning, we have a light schedule of programming for the coming week. Again, the schedule is heavy with public affairs programming, but with no pre-arranged guests.

Wednesday's show is an afternoon segment at 3 p.m. We invite people who have questions about the imminent redrawing of city council district boundaries to call in. Apparently, a great number of people don't understand why this has become an issue and don't know what some citizens are demanding be done. We will discuss it, and if anyone wishes to debate it or discuss "concerns" and other aspects of the situation, we'll be happy to talk about the law or the politics. Fair warning: our view is that the council must redraw the boundaries and they must redraw them lawfully and promptly

Thursday should be more relaxed and without a predesigned format. At this moment, the agenda hasn't been published, although it will have been made available to the council in hardcopy. Rumor has it that the ineffective ordinance that endured a first reading on 7/7 will not be placed on the agenda for additional readings. That remains to be seen.

We'll concentrate on the debate, the actions, and the inactions of the council that night, with the added bonus of attention to the contributions from non-elected petitioners.
