Too much time on a boring subject! Good luck with stopping gossip!

Not sure what I just witnessed. Was this a meeting for the City of St. Martinville or just Gossip? Any how hope what ever it is will be resolved. I viewed this meeting from CA. I am from St. Martinville but I live in CA.

I think the white man next to the Mayor has an issue with my brother. And I do think color has ALOT to do with it!!!!
The Mayor was elected and is being BLOCKED from making decisions that best benefit his citizens. That’s a darn shame!!!
There we go they couldn’t agree to hire a guy who’s already at their disposal but here we are trying to create a position for someone else who is already assisting in the department. Make it make sense!
What is worse? Residents’ decision makers not being able to make decisions? THE decision makers making wrong decisions? You all are fitting into BOTH categories, unfortunately, like a glove. Which is worse? Just pick your poison I guess?
Let’s talk BUDGET DECISIONS: Don’t promote the 2-year experienced internal candidate. Instead, post the job, fill it with a third-party candidate, and pay them more than the internal candidate (or you all’s personal money-saving candidate) would require.
I agree 100%!!!
THE BS NEVER STOPS!
