Eat lunch with city commissioners

Wednesday, November 7, 2007

If you would like to eat lunch with Emporia city commissioners they will be dining at the Ayan Café at noon today.

Ayan Café serves Somali food and is located at 728 E. 12th Ave.

Interesting, and quite laughable.

Anyhow, what about people who actually have to be at work at noon today?

Do the commissioners stop commissioning at 5pm? I think they should do dinner, too.

What a joke!!! If this is the tactic this commission is taking, maybe next election will take the smirk off their faces.

This is a complete joke!!!! Nobody had any time to plan for this meeting, plus who decided the meeting should happen at the Ayan Cafe? No thank you! I would not step foot in that place!!!!

I think the city commissioners have sent a message loud and clear exactly what they intend to do.

Make sure we send our message loud and clear at the next election.

Unless, of course, they can manage to get enough Somalians brought here to vote to keep them in office between now and then.

Talk about "eating with the enemy"...

I hope you choke on your food, commissioners.

Sorry for any confusion we may have caused.

The city commission lunch at the Ayan Café was in conjunction with a study session with the Human Relations board. The commission often schedules lunch meetings with other boards.

The meeting was publicized well in advance just as all the city meetings are. We posted a special notice late this morning in case anyone wanted to go.

The commission's regular action meeting remains at its regular time and location this afternoon — 1:30 p.m. in the city meeting room.

Wow, did the commissioners send a statement with that one.....at the Ayan Cafe???? Come on commissioners...is THAT where your votes came from?? Tax dollars from there too?? And, of course, with no notice, now you can say nobody cared enough to show up. Hope they aren't serving Chinese wheat gluten today......
