We can lose talent and not be able to gain talent. We <br />did not have the discussion on city versus county residents. Citizens of the city will have priority <br />and county residents will be used after city residents are given a chance. It is good to have input <br />from the county because ordinances are put out in the county. The appointment process is left to <br />the council and mayor. <br />EXCELLENCE ACCOUNTABILITY j INNOVATION INCLUSION EMPOWERMENT <br />455County-City Building.227 W.
