[PASSED] Assembly Resolution on Local Council Reform
#31

Looks like you just did on the RMB Tounge

In all fairness, I concur with Kris, I do not think this is a threat so much as the Assembly putting an underperforming group on notice. The LC might very well create a good solution, or they don't and the Assembly decides to act (or also chooses not to act).

Just so you all know, I've telegrammed both the Local and Deputy Councillors about this.

That's hardly an official notification. If the Assembly wants to tell the Local Councillors to do something, y'all better have that process figured out.

Listen: When you "put someone on notice" with a "consequence" if they don't follow through ... that's the definition of a threat. End of story. I'm not debating dictionary definitions with you all.

Honestly, this was just an ill-thought-out resolution on a number of levels. At best this should have been made prior to an election so the people running for the LC knew what they were getting into. However, you know changed the job requirements and expectations after people were already elected. Like — surprise! People who didn't vote for you now are dictating your job! 

I'll also point out that you can't legislate activity. If any of the people who voted for this are that interested you could have run for LC ... and made changes.
