What can we say that Greg Neitzert doesn’t cover with detail. Greg showed up and started the Sioux Falls City Council Public Input on June 16, 2015 with a resounding boom. In his quiet way he laid out the issues before the council.

My cameraman Bruce also joined in on the Public Input reminding the council of the 2014 election promises made by Don Kearney and the administration now being broken. He let the council know the Park Board had a great meeting during the day and he recorded for the public to see on DaCola.

Transparency, fairness, promises and more are highlighted in this video. Join in our discussion of fairness and promises. The city illegally promised if the public voted against the outdoor pool, they would get an indoor pool by default. With this indoor pool they were promising no multi-tier pricing schemes and openness to the public. What we have discovered is the opposite.

The rate increase issue is a problem we citizens must now help them consider. Do we let the special citizens be allowed to take over this neighborhood pool as their special place or do we fight to keep it a neighborhood pool and meeting spot. Do we let the city reserve the Spellerberg Pool for just those who can afford to pay the premium prices or do we let everyone use it?

MayorCam 2015 was in full operation for Public Input on Tuesday night just for you. Sit back and enjoy.

    Wow, Greg is awesome in defending the general citizen, he is detailed in explaining his concerns and does so in a way that is not menacing. He would be great on the council at some point! Thanks to Bruce for his input and videos as well. There has NEVER been a time when the mayor and his administration needs to be monitored more closely. I have to wonder……how do city department heads really feel about the mayor’s pushing his agenda items? Are the truly behind them or just going along with his wish list to save their jobs?

    The city builds extravagant hotels and public baths for the affluent. What’s new? Sad but I’m getting used to it. It takes weekends in Omaha or Minneapolis so I can remember what middle class used to be.
