Tonight's The Night!!!

Gig Harbor City Council Meeting  5:30pm  Civic Center

Tonight's the Night!!!
Tonight will be what the council likes to refer to as the second reading of the waterside downtown building heights proposed amendment.

     It is the same amendment as before, only the Council took out and passed the uphill Harborview side of the amendment on September 9th.
      Oct. 14 was the Open House for reeducating folks, first reading of the "new" amendment; and public comment.  
     A petition was presented to the city with over 1,500 signatures of Gig Harbor Citizens for NO new zoning anywhere on Harborview Drive.   The great, vast majority of speakers said NO to this view killing, tall building amendment.  There was about 5 speakers in favor of this amendment, the majority of those speaking in favor would also financially benefit from this amendment.
FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT
     Previously the Citizens For The Preservation of Gig Harbor Waterfront received, through the Freedom of Information Act, emails concerning this Building Height and Developer Agreement amendments.  EXCEPT the city withheld 70 pages of information, citing Attorney/Client privilege.
    The question will always be what is in those 70 pages the city does not want Gig Harbor citizens to know about regarding those 2 amendments? 
     Why did we receive some of the requested materials and 70 pages were withheld?
Why is it OK to see some of those emails?
Why is it NOT OK to see some of those emails?
 ALWAYS
     Investigate for yourself!.......Decide for yourself....Google, for yourself!!!!

At the end of the Council meeting there is always time for Public Comment..
there will be some tonight!
Come on up or over or down...bring a friend and ask where those 70 pages are and what is in those 70 pages the city does not want YOU to know about!
Since we only asked for information regarding the buildings heights and developer agreement issues, the 70 missing pages have to do with that subject...Attorney/Client privilege covers a lot.

Over 1,500 Gig Harbor citizens say NO to this proposed zoning amendment. 


  What is in those 70 missing pages and
what is it the city does not want you to know about what is in those 70 pages?
