He noted that he would not <br />be comfortable speaking to this in real time. <br /> <br />Acting Mayor Riley asked if this is something that they would like to discuss in a work session <br />when Staff has had time to prepare some information. <br /> <br />City Administrator Hagen said this can be done. <br /> <br />David Richards, 8241 161st Avenue, came forward and shared his frustration and disappointment <br />with how the City dealt with the situation and shared that they received different stories and <br />answers from different people at the City.
