ITEM 5 - PUBLIC COMMENT
Mayor Murphy asked for comments.
Brian Waring, Applewood, spoke about unalienable rights of people. He said it is the unalienable rights of people to be safe in their own homes. However, in a particular incident, Council decided to 'harm' the decorum, rights and privileges of the people in general by attacking this person (Mrs. Tarpley). There is no code which will trump a person's unalienable rights, and there is no government which can do that. He does not believe that common law is ancient law, and that government can make up rules and regulations regarding peoples lives as they go along.
There were no further public comments.
