The city, also known as City Council, moves to spend thousands more of taxpayer money. They have no intentions of being transparent with the people they serve. They think the laws do not apply to them, delaying the release of reports by weeks and months at a time. This is a damned shame and is unacceptable!! Vote these jokers out!
People need information to watch over their government. Watching over our elected officials keeps us informed and helps keep them honest and transparent about the decision they make on behalf of the taxpayers. Mayor David Turner and City of Odessa have spent a whopping $60,000 taxpayer money with another $30,000 in expected fees to control and censor what information the news media gets. Our taxes have gone up, people are suffering, and they are spending hard earned money on a lawsuit with the Odessa American. Laws are in place to ensure the free flow of public information to the citizens and should be followed. The public has the right to seek and obtain government information and should be able to do so without the runaround.
David and Dewey, MOVE ON!!
