Council member pushes back on social-media insinuations about Heritage Foundation event
Summary
A council member rejected a social-media article’s suggestion that promises were made about a Heritage Foundation event, saying no promises were made and urging the foundation to stay focused on the event’s overall purpose.
During general discussion and staff recognition, a council member addressed a social-media article on Facebook that, he said, insinuated a promise regarding a Heritage Foundation event. The member stated, "it was insinuated in that article on Facebook that somehow I promised this. No. What I want is I want the Heritage Foundation to look at all avenues..." and urged the foundation to remain focused on the whole event.
Council members praised staff and referenced personnel moves — one member said he "worked under Bill Cole 12 years ago" and noted Jacob had moved to another position in Clear Lake. The transcript contains laudatory remarks about staff but no formal action related to the Heritage Foundation event or personnel changes.
The member also said he was pleased with the event that brought many people to town, and that no promises had been made on behalf of the city.
