Lone Star, TX City Council Meltdown On Video

Economic Development Chair yells at city council, resigns, then tries to fight member of audience for filming. Next meeting, council begs him to come back.

It doesn’t matter whether a council likes their public meetings posted on KZbin or not. They have no say in the matter.

[@rootingforyou6399]

Does Mitch’s brother have a conflict of interest to vote? Anyone else at that table with a conflict of interest? Who do you want instead? Is it possible to have that committee online? Who is on the EDC other than Mona and Mitch? Is Mona a sister? Would like to see what is happening with the EDC AND what has the board approved to come into your town?

[@MatthewNehrling1]

The question becomes, what do they not want to be made public from the public meeting? Any government that fights this hard against being open and transparent may, in some people's opinion, have something to hide.

[@emilyhofland8219]

Possible... Could also be that KZbin has a stigma for being used to shame and troll people. Maybe he don't care about the video, he has an issue with KZbin. Not that there are a lot of other options, that are really any different. But an older man may or may not be very savvy with this stuff. He might just be so simple, that he doesn't like anything new, or anything he doesn't understand. Could be something just that trivial. Question. Why are you so quick to accuse. When all you have is a bunch of speculation and assumptions based on his emotions?

violations of Texas Local Government Code 551.023 are depicted in this video. Has this KZbin clip been shown to the District Attorney, County Attorney, or Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton for a referral of prosecution?

"Sec. 551.053. DISTRICT OR POLITICAL SUBDIVISION EXTENDING INTO FOUR OR MORE COUNTIES: NOTICE TO PUBLIC, SECRETARY OF STATE, AND COUNTY CLERK; PLACE OF POSTING NOTICE." It is about where notices are placed to inform the public of upcoming open meetings not where the videos of public meetings can be published.
