Cranky-causing: Silence from City Hall

I'm back from a two-week absense (I missed you, too, my pretties). Before I left (on Jan. 18 to be exact), I filed a public records request at City Hall asking for this information. I explained in the request that I would be away and that a response should be forwarded to my editor, Eddie Wooten.

I returned today to learn that no one even contacted Eddie to acknowledge the request, much less complied with it.

So am I cranky because I'm back at work after a long vacation? Or am I cranky because my public records request was acknowledged by the sound of crickets chirping, as if to say, "Margaret, we don't consider your request valid and therefore won't dignify it with a response?"

Tough call. Could go either way.

I think there's more going on downtown than meet's the casual eye. It's not surprising your request has gone unanswered.

No one at N&R seems to have the gumption to want to really dig and find out the truth about our city government's inepitude, or why the manager is not doing his job effectively.

Where's the N&R leadership that should be demanding the complete and true story from city hall?
