man, Fayetteville makes us look so bad sometimes.  I guess that's what we get for not having a city manager style of government.

TGOV should not be a Cox-only operation.

If we really are that cheap, we could at least be posting meetings to something similar to YouTube.

It looks like tgovonline.org is intended to host online video of TGOV programming, but it's been up for a while, and there has been no progress in that direction.

Absolutely. This would be a great topic of discussion for the next candidate forum. Da Mare's E-newsletter is a joke.

It's time to demand better folks.

This SHOULD be a major campaign issue.

Online, realtime video of all public meetings.
Get it budgeted and included in the campaign rhetoric. Budget is about to come up.

Even if not realtime, they should be able to have it online within a day.

It's not that hard. I'd do it if they'd pay me.

i still think it boils down to the type of government we have here is not appropriate for tulsa.  It is evident that other cities are much better run on a city manager style government.

if a person ran for mayor with two promises that they would run for one term and that they would work with the council to change the government style to city manager would you vote for them?  I'm trying to find a surrogate that would run on this platform.

ROFLMFAO!  Baaaaaaaaa haaaaaahaaaaa.  You must be having a pretty vicious WET dream.  [:P]

About as silly as the stooopid Santa on the BA.  The idea itself is actually a pretty good idea.  But, good ideas are NEVER major campaign issues.

If Santa takes a vic lap on Riverside on 2 April, I'll EAT my stinky undershorts on u-tube.  Make MY day.
