Petition for an ALL VOLUNTEER MEDFORD CITY COUNCIL December 7 2021 City Council

 Hi Jennifer,


Could I kindly ask for a City Council petition sheet? to be e mailed to me?

Or do I need to come by City Hall?

I want this posted in its entirety.  It is of great interest to the public.
Adam Hurtubise EDITED my previous petitions and, suddenly,
Mr. Hurtubise isn't around.  That's a stark reminder that city clerks
in Medford need to start playing by the rules.  Allegedly.

Petition: A Volunteer City Council of Medford

Given the brevity of the city council meetings in November, 2021 - 29 minutes and 20 seconds on November 9, 
10 minutes and 11 seconds on November 16, 1 hour and 19 minutes on the 23rd of November and
12 minutes and 25 seconds on November 30th - a total of 1 hour 52:15 - less than two hours for the entire
month of November - and no meeting on election night, November 2nd (a good reason to move elections to Saturdays statewide,) 
I propose an all-volunteer city council.  

A stipend of $100.00 can be given to each councilor if meetings reach over 4 hours per
session. This is supposed to be public service.  The fact that the council gets to vote on its own rate of pay is a serious
conflict of interest which must be addressed.
