It’s been a while since the Edmonds City Council has had a Tuesday night devoted only to committee meetings (lately there have been a few extra issues that have necessitated regular council business prior to committee work).

I think it is great that we have a council that is spending time in committees, may I recommend that they put some SMART goals out there:
SPECIFIC
MEASURABLE
ACHIEVABLE
RELEVANT
TIME BOUND
Then publish and track those goals for the rest of the residents of Edmonds – and by the way, “No” is not a SMART goal…
Two cents.
This is probably one of the better Edmonds City Council doing the hard job of what is right for the citizens of Edmonds. Thank you Council members……a diverse group
I thought the council has met once a month on committees for as long as I have lived here. What am I missing?
