First, Croton United discovered--through the freedom of information process--the mayor's taxpayer funded health insurance, his time-sheet errors--and more. Today, as a a result of Croton United's advocacy, the mayor now pays for his own health insurance http://bit.ly/1E6tZMW
And now: LET THE SUNSHINE IN....AGAIN! CROTON UNITED SCORES YET ANOTHER SUCCESS ON OPEN GOVERNMENT
Croton United has championed the cause of transparency in village
government since its formation, and during the November election last
year, ran on a platform that advocated for numerous open government
reforms, including video recording and broadcasting of Village Board work sessions.
Croton United consistently rejected the board’s vague and facile
excuses for its failure to videotape these meetings and has continued to
advocate for open government reforms, as recently as the March 16, 2015
village board meeting, when the issue of video recording of work
sessions was once again put before the board, which refused to even
discuss the topic with the public. READ the rest here http://on.fb.me/1HQ4X2g
I guess when you guys started videotaping the work sessions they had no more excuses.
