Rich Block and Eric Moeller had an idea earlier this year. Block, as council president. and Moeller, as vice president of the council, both felt the public needed the ability to meet with them and other council members to talk about issues important to members of the community.
That’s how Council Connect got its start. However, these meetings have not drawn many residents so far. You can normally count on one hand the number of people from the general public on hand for these meetings.
Block and Moeller have been scheduling Council Connect gatherings at different times of day, in different parts of the city.
The next Council Connect session is set for Wednesday, June 26th, 1:30pm, for The Reserve at Hamilton Trace. The exact address is 9974 Federalist Drive.
I have covered a number of election cycles in Fishers and in nearly every campaign I have covered, communication is a major issue. This is your chance to speak directly to members of your City Council about issues you care about.
If this location and time of day does not work for you, check the next Council Connect session.
Some people around town have told me that they have not attended a Council Connect session because they didn’t know about it. Well, if you are reading this, you know about the June meeting.
