Are we going to hold the City Council accountable?

How can we trust the City Council or the city of Amarillo?

In Thursday’s Amarillo Globe-News, the story tells us that the Local Government Corp. now seeks developers for the proposed downtown parking garage. What arrogance! What hubris! One commenter going by the handle of Bubba_Billybob said it better than I could, so let me give him credit: “When Wallace-Bajjali was fired, the LGC said it didn't need any outside help to develop and manage the project. Now it says it does, which is probably a good decision.”

The LGC is populated by three city councilors: Ron Boyd, Brian Eades and Lilia Escajeda, all of whom were on the LGC board when Wallace Bajjali imploded.

Are we going to hold the City Council accountable?
