No matter the agenda - short or long - Hemet’s City Council meetings come off like an unruly college seminar. Tuesday night was no different as the night went on. Some issues were resolved; others were not.
You knew something wasn’t right. An atmosphere of silence initiated the opening as the Hemet City Council filed into the room from the closed session and took their seats and took their seats. It was like the lights had dimmed. The usual glow of sunshine was absent. Mayor Pro-tem Karlee Meyer was granted an excused absence.
Covering the San Jacinto City Council meeting by phone is like having a milkshake at the local malt shop, and it goes down sweet and slick. Tuesday night was no except, and it lasted a little over an hour.
Tuesday’s San Jacinto City Council Meeting, as usual lately, flowed like a well-oiled machine with one bit of turbulence from a dissatisfied tax payer. The opening ceremonies went off like clockwork, with only 3 council members on hand. The minutes from the previous meeting were approved without change.
