During a recent government meeting, community member Valerie expressed strong dissatisfaction with the conduct of local officials, particularly targeting Council Member Paul Pruitt. Valerie criticized the council for what she described as a lack of professionalism, highlighting instances of side conversations during staff presentations as disrespectful.
She pointed out that despite seven budget meetings held between May and July, only a few minutes from these meetings have been made available online, raising concerns about transparency and accountability. Valerie questioned how many more meetings would be necessary for the council to adequately address ongoing issues and engage with the community's concerns.
Valerie's remarks underscored a broader frustration among citizens regarding the council's performance, suggesting that the city of Cibolo is perceived as a \"laughing stock\" among its peers due to the current administration's behavior. Her comments reflect a growing demand for improved governance and greater respect for public input in local decision-making processes. The meeting concluded shortly after her statements, with no immediate response from the council members.
