10/25/11 Council Meeting (Searchable E-Packet courtesy of
Tomasz Bania)
« on: October 21, 2011, 01:05:51 PM »
Amazingly Long Agenda to say the least.
I have included a searchable E-Packet as a courtesy to people searching for
information in the packet.
Unlike the e-packet posted on the city's website, a searchable (and properly
orientated) e-packet is what I would characterize as promoting transparency.
Here is the link to the Searchable E-Packet(warrenlife.info currently
undergoing a server upgrade although videos are still available):

Also, as the backup regarding Tomasz Bania's FOIA appeals did not make it
in time for inclusion to the e-packet, it is provided below:
