^Vic, what do you think of this group chat compared to the one-on-one format? I get that it can be very productive but sometimes you want to bring up a specific set of issues with the mayor
Ya, I'm curious how it might work. Or not work. I'd hate the idea that a Denis Oliver type would sit for the whole 2 hours and monopolize the whole conversation. On the other hand, I'm the kind of guy that could sit all 2 hours and find it fascinating, and only chime in a few times. You know, pick your points carefully. I think you are too, Rob. I'm never disappointed that I arrive at a council meeting way too early for my topic, as I enjoy some of the meeting on on the topics too.
Maybe it'll morph. Rather than drop-in, maybe have people submit in advance to be there, and then they draw from hat, with priority to those that have not been there for 6 months. Over the course of two hours, it seems like you might get your 5 minutes for your topic, with opportunity for discussion all-around.
