Weaver says Tippin never asked to have salary set at min of 10% higher than highest paid city employee

He hopes whoever moves approval of contract will include amendment to strike that park

Weaver said city will share plan in a public forum

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:12:13 AM
Councilwoman Kristen Schreder says Tippin made same remark to her about 10% clause. "I am in agreement that we should take that out."

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:13:29 AM
schreder says city will have clear goals and priorities and the public will know them.
Some in crowd reply "when?"

Sullivan: One of the things we were very committed to is getting the very best person we could

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:18:00 AM
Selection of Tippin wasn't be default, she says

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:18:18 AM
Audible laughter when Sullivan says Starman keeping Redding in the black put city ahead of a lot of other communities who didn't do that

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:19:02 AM
McElvain can't support contract as is with provision of future raise baked in. Met with applause

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:19:45 AM
Weaver: "That raise is not a forgone conclusion."

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:19:58 AM
McElvain supports Tippin, though

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:20:20 AM
"You're going to be seeing increased transparency," Winter says

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:21:27 AM
She also asks to give Tippin a chance

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:21:39 AM
"I think this community is going to be well-served," Winter says

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:21:57 AM
Weaver: It was loud and clear that hire needed to be from outside community

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:22:19 AM
Council passes 4-1. McElvain oposes

We're talking city trespassing ordinance now

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:43:08 AM
Municipal code was lacking, City Attorney Barry DeWalt says

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:45:00 AM
DeWalt is going through some legal background now. State law is deficient to address when a person is asked to leave a business & won't

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:46:32 AM
Under proposed city law, if a person is asked to leave and doesn't or comes back, they can be arrested

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:47:13 AM
DeWalt looked to San Rafael for model ordinance

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:47:43 AM
"It's already been challenged, it's already good to go," DeWalt says

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:48:05 AM
Law can't be used to discriminate, DeWalt says

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:48:21 AM
Law is aimed squarely at people who are asked to leave a business and won't

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:49:45 AM
Greg Washburn back up again

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:50:02 AM
Washburn addresses lag time in police response: "Are we talking a 7-day wait period?"

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:50:43 AM
Washburn's issue: Problem will be gone by the time cops show

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:51:20 AM
DeWalt responding: Response times depend on what RPD is working on at time of call

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:51:58 AM
DeWalt: offense is citable even if PD is not around
"And nothing will happen," woman shouts from crowd

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:52:42 AM
Schreder: This doesn't solve all problems but it shows city is trying to do what it can

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:53:14 AM
Trespassing law passes unanimously.

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 2:54:10 AM
It'll take effect in 30 days

Light speaks of mailbox break ins, home invasions, other crime concerns in her neighborhood

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 3:00:08 AM
Every time you speak of building a park, all people hear is park is being put over safety, Light says

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 3:01:12 AM
Charlotte Michel up now

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 3:02:24 AM
"I don't think you understand the depth of the anger and bitterness these people have," Michel says

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 3:02:48 AM
Michel: Taxpayers want to know why council isn't spending every minute, resource on fighting crime

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 3:04:29 AM
"We do not want to discuss a new flag. We do no want to discuss internet." Michel says

by Sean Longoria via twitter 6/7/2017 3:04:47 AM
