Mayor, Deputy Mayor, Commissioners, and City Manager,
The lack of full, substantive written meeting minutes provides a barrier to our Montana
Constitutional right to know, and participate.
Quality written meeting minutes should include direction given to City Staff by members ofthe City Commission. Meeting minutes should be a document that a resident can read and
understand what decisions were made, who proposed what actions were to be taken, and whatconcerns were expressed.
Requiring residents to spend 3, 4, or 6 hours watching a video recording in order to stay
informed is not acceptable. Bring back full, substantive written meeting minutes!
Thank you, Lila Cebulla
