Huge crowd at Recreation Precinct, felt like a Presidential election. Lots of interest. Line snaking around inside, people waiting to vote backed out the door.
A large media contingent on hand Monday for the Charlottesville City Council meeting. A man in the audience told me he found the meetings “livelier and more interesting” than anything in local theaters and 12 dollars cheaper.I don’t know whether these signs were being handed out at the door like church programs or whether the sign bearers are members of a particular group.The first two hours of the Council meeting were spent on “SPECIAL REPORT / PUBLIC HEARING: August 11/12 Community Response and Next Steps”. Lots of speakers. Theater in the round.Following public comments the Councilors responded. Lisa Provence has the story at C-Ville.
