Resident urges council to adopt member-conduct protocols after 'unprofessional' email
Summary
A 40-year Ross resident told the council that an unsolicited email from a council member on May 17 amounted to 'a crisis of leadership' and demanded adoption of member-conduct rules and swift discipline; council did not take immediate action but heard the complaint during open time.
During the public-comment period on June 11, 2026, Michael Rosenbaum of 14 Madrona urged the Ross Town Council to adopt formal protocols for member conduct and to impose swift discipline for what he described as an unsolicited, unprofessional email sent by a council member on May 17.
Rosenbaum, a longtime resident, said the behavior "is an affront to the dignity of our town" and warned that continued "petulant self serving communication" could harm the town's reputation and partnerships. The council did not take formal action at the meeting; the complaint was recorded as part of the public-comment record.
