ATWOOD, ATWOOD,ATWOOD
For the first time the Municipal Council meeting was held in Atwood to a dismal showing of five people. Come on Atwood, I know how pissed off everyone is about the way that we have been treated by North Perth but if there ever has been a time to show solidarity as the proud people we are this would be the time. The next council meeting is August 23 and it would be great for more people to show up and and not back down from these people.

Unfortunately, apathy is a far greater foe than the North Perth council.
I must admit it was my first time at a Municipal Council meeting. I really think that we need to have a sunshine law, it is abysmal that we show up but there isn't really any new information. What they vote on they have already discussed in detail in private. There should never be meetings in private when it concerns the public interest, they do work for us, we pay their wages and I seriously think that they need to remember such things.

DK: You are so right. It took me years to figure out that all the debate on issues has taken place privately. Most Councils use the public Council meetings to rubberstamp decisions already made.
