There are 3 positions open, and 4 resident's submissions for consideration. I think one more is coming. It's my understanding that I will be sworn in, a week from Wednesday on the 10th, and then we, as a Council, will elect one of us Mayor. The Mayor will in turn, at the next meeting I think, seek approval of his or her appointments to the Planning Commission.</B> -Mike<BR/><BR/>"Congratulations on your election! I love your energy for Trinidad. Is Chi Wi not running for re-election as Mayor? Who else is running Perhaps more info on your blog!" -JWMikeMorgan, FormerCouncilmemberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03236926360281987961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8571438572621398174.post-12008701607707593312008-12-02T12:15:00.000-08:002008-12-02T12:15:00.000-08:00So there's a learning curve here.

Here are some comments which were emailed to me -Mike</B><BR/><BR/>"I agree with you that transparency is important. While sometimes it may require extra diligence to ensure that everyone is kept in the loop, it is worth the effort. Communication, participation and trust improve when discussions and proceedings are entirely public." -JP<BR/><BR/>"All good wishes as you begin your term, Mike. The Planning Commission's great loss also is the City Council's fine addition." -PF<BR/><BR/>"Congratulations, I feel Trinidad is finally going to have a fresh and positive influence by your service." -MB<BR/><BR/>"Nice blog...impressive. We'll support you for mayor." -SF <BR/><BR/>"I am sure that you will enjoy it and the town will benefit from your enthusiasm and business experience." -DB<BR/><BR/>"We hope you are well and are very proud of your civic dedication and support. The people of your community are extremely fortunate to have such a conscientious servant of the people with such vision for the future!" - Mom (she's a little biased of course)MikeMorgan, FormerCouncilmemberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03236926360281987961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8571438572621398174.post-32735260707611071392008-12-01T17:41:00.000-08:002008-12-01T17:41:00.000-08:00This is a great idea Mike.
