Take a look at this press release from the city:
We don’t know if Dr. Morgan is guilty or not. We do know that the city’s press release says “The officers arrived and through the investigation found that Morgan had assaulted his wife”.
Didn’t it use to take a jury trial to make that kind of statement?
Someone needs to teach these people what fair is.
Maybe they don’t want to be fair.
We deserve better

Somehow members of our city council have gotten the mistaken impression that they are not allowed to talk with people that are involved in litigation with the city.
Actually the ones that have restrictions on whom they may talk with are the attorneys involved in the case. Those attorneys may only deal with their opponents through the opponent’s attorneys.
The actual people involved are allowed to deal with each other as they please.
The very idea that anyone cannot speak with their elected representatives is absurd, but this is another way that city staff keeps council in the dark.

The city enters into “380 agreements” with various companies in order to incent a company to add more employees or move an operation into El Paso.
The city’s internal auditor wrote this about his findings related to “380 agreements”.
Note that even though the companies failed to do what they promised they still got paid.

Daniel Lopez made this comment the other day:
We should register bicycle path users and charge a similar organized sports user fee like the parks department does for soccer etc.., after all there’s no such thing as a free lunch.
We have to obtain a drivers license in order to drive a motor vehicle on a public road.
Why shouldn’t bicycle riders be required to be licensed if they want to ride on public roads?
