Alderman Lue:
IT have seen you in aldermanic meetings several times, and frankly, your comments and questions
are painful to watch.
You are constantly confused, you are unable to vocalize a question without getting lost in what
you're asking. Your comments are next to impossible to comprehend, jumping from one
incomplete thought to the next. You have little understanding of parliamentary procedure. In
short, your participation is disruptive and not useful.
It would really help if you were better prepared before coming to your meetings. For example,
have you studied the ordinances and resolutions and supporting documents on the
Agenda? Have you studied Mason's Rules of Procedure? Have you read the relevant city
charter and NROs and state RSAs? Have you discussed with city staff the financial and other
details that may not be evident to you, before the meeting?
Being an alderman is no easy task, especially since there is no training. But eventually most
newly elected aldermen catch on, some quicker than others,
I urge you study the material on the Agenda before coming to your meetings. As a general
rule, if you are prepared and can positively contribute speak up. Otherwise, just be
siient, jisten carefully, and follow other aldermen you trust when voting yes or no.
