			<dc:creator>Anonymous</dc:creator>
			<description>Cleaning up Bisbee parks may seem like an attack on those who revitalized Bisbee back in the 60's and 70's but it isn't.  There is a difference.  The immigrants of the 60's and 70's elevated a dying town, bringing energy and a new creative direction; they left a larger society behind to find a different approach to life. For the majority drugs were experimental and recreational.  These new arrivals are not younger versions of us,  for them drugs aren't experimental or recreational but a total  ...</description>

			<description>Well, the local election is pretty much done. 



County, state and national issues are still upcoming, of course, but controversial Bisbee figures have all had their day before the voters, and those decisions have already been made.



So for now, I guess, there's not much to talk about. Life goes on. 



But soon, no doubt, more Bisbee controversies will bubble up, and the Gulch Gestapo will take another shot at relevancy, and there will be more to debate, so it will be good to have this forum  ...</description>

			<description>There is no reason why we need to know who is posting anymore than we need to know how people vote.  Thank god for forums which don't require registration or the approval of a board or administration in order to gain registration or post an opinion.   Those who demand to know who is posting are like those who want to remove the privacy of the ballot box.  Only those who must resort to threats or intimidation in order to control things need either.</description>

			<description>Codes, Charters, and Sunshine Laws



Since when is asking for direction from a department head for the purpose of clarification a violation of the sunshine law?  Asking for clarification of an employee is hardly the same as meeting privately with another voting member outside of the view of the public.  If we begin to classify those as a violation you soon won't be able to ask for directions to the bathroom with out doing it in a public session.  Hope they have a lot of those scheduled!

			<dc:creator>Anonymous</dc:creator>
			<description>We have some very dysfunctional posting criticizing Bisbee politics, its residents and past residents in our forums.  It isn’t the opinions, personal politics, or age of the poster that is responsible, it is the poster’s absolute intransigence and ability to hold civil discourse. They no longer query or discuss, they speak in absolutes. Though intelligent enough to know and use multi-syllabic words their personal intransigence and name calling makes it almost impossible for them to be eloquent.  ...</description>

			<description>Has this election taught our local critics anything? Will they learn their views can be expressed without an adversarial position being adopted?  Can they accept that there are other positions that might be advantageous for them to hear?  Can they finally understand that attacking people who offer an opposing view doesn’t enhance their position but only isolates them?  I would like to hear from them.</description>

			<dc:creator>Anonymous</dc:creator>
			<description>Yesterday’s Brewery Gulch Daze was a sparsely attended,

boring and lackluster event. So what has been causing this downturn in attendance? Why did the residents turn out in such low numbers? What happened to the tourists?  It’s obvious something has been affecting potential attendees, but what?  Was it just the adult focused entertainment?  I think the answer to that question may be as obvious as the number of negative comments appearing on Topix.   People took steps to avoid what they were  ...</description>

			<description>Jeff Harris for council offers us inconsistencies that need

more than a cursory glance. There is no doubt given his level of education that

the man had a clever mind but to what use has he given it?  He publishes for us a background of

management and administration yet the reality is he had to declare indigents

with the court. He deplores the high school drop out and gloats over the

mistakes of others as an embarrassment yet finds no shame in a life far less productive

			<description>The voice of the resident was never an issue for Mr. Harris it was just the argument that was convenient, he didn't care what the board of zoning and council passed and he won't care what the other residents want. Ironically his personal interests do sometimes coincide with the altruistic desire many have to preserve Bisbee culturally and protect it environmentally and that is what has mislead so may into thinking his issues were their issues. But one only needs to look at his personal values,  ...</description>

			<description>There is calm in Bisbee but it will not last long, there will be public appearances, and speeches, and issues will be raised that will have people choosing sides. The quiet will return after the elections are finished. Who will keep their promises and who has the ability to lead Bisbee, to get the streets repaired and the people excited about the future? I want issues and answers not promises.</description>

			<description>I'm shocked that so little has been said about Mayor Oertle's withdrawal from the Mayor's race. Bisbee is losing a great mayor, someone who has a passion for this city and who was concerned with the big picture. The remaining candidates aren't even close to matching his conviction and vision, and Bisbee is the loser for this.

After a rough start 4 years ago he learned a lot about how government works and became a huge proponent of this community at the local, state, and international levels.  ...</description>

He didn't mention what years he attended school, when he was in the service, or how long he was employed in the positions he listed but then giving dates of employment wouldn't have looked too good , those TEMP &quot;jobs&quot; only lasted a few months.

The inside word is that Porter intends to replace Pauken with Charley as City Manager.

<br />
Even if not a red herring to divert discussion from the&quot;other&quot; topic and a really lame attempt to anger people who think the manager is doing a good job, it would still take the majority vote on council to do what that post implies.   Obviously the poster either assumes we're all idiots or that we don't know gossip when we read it.]]></description>

			<description>Why would anyone want to go into Bisbee topix and post?  Only a few people post on that forum anyway and everyone knows it. When anyone attempts to engage them or question comments they've made, or the accuracy of their opinions, they respond with personal attacks, in which they righteously proclaim they only speak the truth. They have a strange view of truth. Their misuse of it reminds me of a quote from Alfred Adler, &quot;The truth is often a terrible weapon of aggression. It is possible to  ...</description>

			<description>The draw of Bisbee isn't just a museum, or mining it is the Hippi flavor that draws the tourists.  Take away the Goar park hangouts, remove the color and flair that is Bisbee and there goes a major chunk of the tourist trade.  The mining industry it going to be a part of town but it can't be the only part and it has to learn to live with what Bisbee has become AFTER mining abandoned it.  It may be our history but it can't be our only future. But neither can tourism. We can't let certain businesses  ...</description>

BISBEE — 

&quot;The good news is no Bisbee city employees will be laid off. The bad news is that sewer and sanitation rates for Bisbee customers will go up.



In order to counter anticipated lost revenues, increases in expenses and delinquent accounts, the finance committee composed of three city council members, the city manager and the finance director met Wednesday to preview parts of the 2008-09 budget.

			<description>Should the funds received from participants in the Bisbee Stairclimb be allocated to anything other than repairing the stairs?  I take issue with the change in direction that has occurred.  No &quot;charity&quot; event should be allowed to change the destination of the funds collected.  The American Heart Association wouldn't be allowed to send funds to the American Cancer Society.</description>

Question#1: Human Resources &amp; Management



Are you satisfied with the way city hall functions? What issues need to be addressed to improve interaction between departments? </description>
