Walsh stated <br />because the minutes are so brief, a person would need to be present at the work session to know what was <br />really discussed. Walsh stated in his view that is a bad idea from a transparency perspective. Walsh <br />stated as a council member, if he misses the work session, it is also difficult for him to know what <br />transpired at the work sessions and that in his opinion it is a step backwards from a transparency <br />standpoint. Walsh stated if it was up to him, he would change the way the work session minutes are done. <br />VOTE: Ayes 4, Nays 0. <br />APPROVAL OF MINUTES <br />*2.
