As a citizen involved in local government for the past four years, I have become increasingly concerned about the lack of openness, transparency and accountability within our local government.
OTAG is our constitutional right; not an option to be exercised at the whim of our leaders.
According to our city's organizational chart, the citizens are to come first. For the past several years, it's been the exact opposite. Citizens have been increasingly denied their right to speak at public meetings, get answers to their questions and obtain public documents.
It is time to put citizens back in charge of their government.
