It doesn't look like the effort to tape executive sesssions in going very far at the state level (see the Herald's commentary) Also see my previous blog entry.
I am for taping Edmonds City Council executive sessions anyway. There is nothing that says we can't do this. The council should act to move forward with this important reform.
At the retreat, we also discussed televising Architectural Design Board meetings and Planning Board meetings, like we do council meetings. There is some expense involved, but I think it would be better for everyone for government to be as open as possible.

Good for you, Dave. I agree with this move, if for no other reason than it will create a degree of accountability for wrongdoers and protect those who might be falsely accused.
One thing is for certain; when you flip on the light switch the roaches scatter and hide.
