If you plan on attending a City Council meeting and you are not sure what to expect, you can view the ON-LINE FAQ that I created that explains many of the things that happen during a City Council meeting.
Also, I was asked whether a video existed of the Mayor's Roast that I spoke about at in the last newsletter. The Dallas Morning News has a partial video of the Roast.
