When I was a part of RCAC (over 30 years), we did take positions on such matters and we considered them important citizen involvement actions! The times when we did not, there was regret on the part of most members because we did not stand together for each other's CAC issues. Letting the Council know what our communities thought was important then and now.

Linda,

I am not comfortable with this or any similar resolution. I don't think it's a good idea for the entire RCAC to take a position on this or any similar issue. Our job is to promote citizen involvement, not to act as a shadow City Council. If I am elected as RCAC Chair, I will lead us back to our role getting citizens involved, not speaking for them. We are not a legislature.

Sincerely,

Will
