According to the "sources" here on the blog, most of the material was given to them 2 days before and the last part 1 day before. PLENTY of time. Grade school kids are expected to read, comprehend and take a test on material the next day. I think our city council should have been up to the challenge. <br /><br />This really isn't about "checks and balances" or their apparent inability to read and absorb the material anyway. This was Mr. McCauley trying to make a "statement" (as instructed by his master). He's playing games and we don't need it.

But I know the new contract creates tiers of benefits, which may be common elsewhere but a first for Bristol City Hall. It also includes payment into a GASBE 45 account, which is controversial and has not been endorsed by the current city council. <br /><br />24 hours is only plenty of time if you just want the council to rubber stamp the contract. That is not the "checks and balances" system we have in Bristol. You might not, but I want more from my councilmen. That's why I'm glad they tabled it.
