PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE
PUBLIC COMMENTS
Paul Falcon, East Wenatchee, expressed concerns of solar flares affecting communications devices and
encouraged Council to consider it if someone comes forward with a computer operation enabling us to
better prepare ourselves for widespread power blackouts and without critical communication signals for
long periods of time.
Mr. Falcon said at the last meeting a citizen set up a movie camera and filmed the Special Council
meeting. He said he is all for first amendment rights. However, he felt this was not appropriate as the
person filming the meeting is running for public office.
Mr. Falcon lodged an objection to people who live in this city that go around portraying the city as a place
that spends money uselessly and complaining about small government.
Nathan Scott, 918 Manzanal Street, East Wenatchee, said he felt the Special Council meeting regarding
Thunder Swamp sprint boats was well attended. However, he believes information should have been
submitted prior to the meeting to encourage more public participation as the only thing sent out was the
agenda.
