We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

I'd love to talk to the city council president after the meeting to answer a few concerns.

Okay, this is set for tomorrow @ 8:00pm right?
Maybe the OP should edit the original post with clear info.

I made a few changes to cut down on time, and just got a PM with some more changes I need to make, probably won't be able to make those until tomorrow after work, but I'll post the "speech" when I'm done, see you ladies tomorrow night!

All I have is a copy of the slide presentation given to the Sheriffs, and the MML LEAF newsletter on OC. Both to be given to the Mayor. I can have a few MOC brochures as well.
I'm not sure what you mean by "briefs"?

At one point in the presentation to the council, I will mention "the briefs provided to you", I believe Jeff said he was going to put these together, I was just looking for confirmation, else I need to remove that section of the address.

Uh-oh... I thought everything was all set.
I believe the original intention of the briefs was to list the two recent case #s for council to investigate the PD's actions and to explain why their ordinances are unlawful in greater detail.
[line]
From http://www.cityofwarren.org:
All correspondence which must be presented to the entire Council, should be addressed to the Council Secretary, Warren Community Center, Second Floor, 5460 Arden, Warren, MI 48092.
[line]
Note that it does not list a due date to have the items in front of council at the meeting!

Case #'s should be sufficient. The biggest concern right now though is will there be time to print the required # of copies and get them in to the councilsecretary in time for the meeting?

Well, it doesn't actually say you need to present 9 copies (# of council members) but it might help if you are going to try.

Nah, it'll be one package, they can share if they're really at all interested instead of just pushing it off to the city attorney.

I'm still sticking needles in my eyes as that is more enjoyable than last nights council meeting. I left at 11:45 PM (Got home at 1:30 AM) and they still hadn't got to public comments. I'm sure they do that on purpose to dissuade the public from commenting as many have to work in the morning and won't stay so late.
I thought that according to the open meetings act you had to have public comments first and last on the agenda. I know we had to modify our townshipmeeting to fit that rule.
I was also disappointed by the public turn out. My little township of Bath (>10,000) has a larger turn-out than Warren.
I can't wait to see the video as it was on Warren TV.
I thought I would kill myself while listening tothe Fire Commissioners report on upgrading the department. That went on forever only to find out the council had a 3 hour meeting about this very issue the night before. Talk about beating a dead horse.
My head still hurts!
