Video of Austin City Council
August 7, 2019
This is a short video consisting of several excerpts of members of the Austin public speaking to the City Council on June 20, 2019. To Gainesville residents, the difference between the accepted level of audience participation in Austin compared to our own will be painfully obvious. The audience claps liberally but without causing any perceived “interruptions.” The council members seem to care about what the people are saying and how they make them feel.
Our commission is guided more by Ginesville’s plantation mentality from the un-reconstructed South. Just like the statue of Old Joe the Gainesville commission needs to be removed from the City limits.
