Council meeting time change

A retired teacher argued moving meetings to daytime shuts out working parents; opposed the change.

Agreed with Ramirez that moving meetings is unfair to working-class residents.

Said the 1 p.m. proposal serves the mayor's schedule, not the community's, and asked the council to listen.

Detailed opposition: midday meetings exclude workers, and the solution is managing agendas better, not reducing access.

Recalled staying past midnight at the last meeting and scoffed at the idea of afternoon meetings.
