[StBernard] Sale of Jacob Drive Firestation

[Westley Annis]

Was anyone able to corner a councilperson to ask why they had to go into
Executive Session to discuss this before coming back to the public meeting?

(sigh)  Is it the same old, same old, starting up already?  Hidden behind
closed doors?
