Incompetent LEDC President Talbert Refuses To Stream/Record LEDC Meeting Audio/Video Like They Do For City Council.

If I’m not mistaken, a few months ago a local citizen suggested publicly that the LEDC should livestream and record the video and audio of all LEDC meetings (once a month) just like they do for City council.

I thought this was a fantastic idea. I actually said the same thing a few years ago. It makes sense: we have an A/V system that the profligate Toups administration wasted nearly $100,000 on but which City council only uses TWICE each month. The LEDC only meets ONCE a month. There is NO reason the LEDC (a group of baboons mishandling millions of dollars) should not ALSO record their meetings.

I recently asked the City if any progress or decisions had been made on this idea. Their response?

The only meeting currently streamed is City Council and there are no plans to stream any of the other city meetings at this time. However all meetings are open to the public.”  

Brilliant excuse! I’d like to point out that City council meetings are also “open to the public,” but that didn’t stop you clowns from spending nearly $100,000 on wildly overpriced A/V equipment to record and stream audio/video. The cost is ALREADY sunk – so you should be using it as much as possible, right?

Retarded decisions such as this by that insular, unaccountable and inbred group is why the LEDC is about as popular as a beggar with leprosy these days.
