In a recent city council meeting, Olympia Mayor Doug Mah, in response to a citizen that wanted to speak about the isthmus rezone, said that they could not. The reason he gave was that one of the rules regarding council meetings is that the council does not have to hear public testimony "within" 90 days of a public hearing. The council has a public hearing scheduled on the rezone next month. The rule, as far as I understand it, actually states that the council doesn't have to hear public commentary on an issue for 90 days AFTER a public hearing is held. So what's the deal?

I have a message in to the city that hopefully will clear this up.

Well, it's campaign season, and we Doug Mah supporters are working night and day to get out to as many citizens of Olympia as we can. Olympia is a great town, becoming an even greater city. Doug Mah wants to make sure that you and your family are a part of that growth.
