The June 1st Cleveland City Council meeting is off to a great start! 40 minutes late so far and still no sign of starting. 🧵

Mayhaps they don't want to face their residents who want to speak out against datacenters and Flock? 🤔

Just got word that the new start time is 8:00pm now. The week a bunch of people show up to speak out on some issues they have a lengthy meeting run over. By an hour.

They're showing signs of life now

8:05pm - Roll call started

They're recognizing a group of youth from each ward who participated in a program which gave them experience in how the city government works. Kudos to them! 👏🏽

On to the third special presentation....

Here we go with public comment

"I hope [council] reconsiders over the summer whether you should be up there in that seat" A resident is mad over the council president's track record

More pressing business to attend to while a nurse speaks out against Flock and ways the city can reuse the money. Great representation there, @cityofcleveland.bsky.social
