Both Ward 27:25 and Shelton 30:40 indicated they believe in rotation.BUT YET DID'NT WANT TO BE PART OF THE ROTATION .Ward 37:45 don't want it for health reasons Shelton 57:50 "I don't want it who ever sits in that seat ,it does something to them" TO BE ON CITY COUNCIL YOU HAVE TOO BE A LEADER!!! other wise why be there . How do you expect your city to have faith in you when you have none in your self or you fellow council members . Even the spot of Vice Mayor comes up Shelton 40:50 "I don't want to be Vice Mayor for the same reason I don't want to be Mayor". Ward is basically is put as Vice Mayor... What is wrongs with this? like children I DONT WANT IT , BUT I DONT WANT HER TO HAVE IT ... We need MORE leaders ON our city council only thing is when you get one they are not valued by the weaker members who spend more time dealing with petty behavior and personal issues...
