Oh, stop it, Spengler! Stop preaching to us like you are the all-knowing Great OZ! U sound like a Rob Bonta front man. There was no notice in PRINT media, i.e.Alameda Journal, Alameda Sun, or East Bay Express. To comply w/City Charter,notice must be printed in the official newspaper (happens to be the AJ, but this blog IS NOT THE SAME) Thank you, Janet, for this notice. And thank you, ACT Network, for emailing me to look here! Not evry Alamedan has unlimited Net access & this City has too many blogs to read each 1 daily.

There was nothing in the newspapers. Apparently Bonta provided notice to his inner circle.

Thank you Janet for trying to let the general public know about it.

Rob Bonta provided well over 72 hours’ notice about his town meeting, so he is compliant with the spirit of the Brown Act, which he may not need to follow for a town meeting.

I’m sure he would be happy to consider your suggestions about publicizing it more widely tomorrow night….

Impressive! “100 days” in office. Very John F. Kennedy!

I’m assuming that it might have been in the newspapers, but I haven’t checked. He sent out an announcement about the forum to those on his e-mail list.

Where would a person have found out about this meeting before today?

Actually, Mr. Bonta has given notice about this for several weeks – we are just posting the date now, as a public reminder.

Wow! Mr. Bonta gives only a day’s notice of this so-called “town hall.”

Maybe he is hoping for a low turnout outside his inner circle because his first 100 days have been highly criticized.
