asked the ;Mayors to sit down and see if there <br />wasn't a pattern that could be established for us <br />to develop a formal agreement. From time to time <br />the whole Council can not get together with the <br />other Councils. Just to get it started we often <br />had the Mayors do that. A lot of times the City <br />Administrator would do that. We have tried <br />numerous times to put together a relationship that <br />was positive for both communities. I think we are <br />making progress all the time. <br />Howard: If there are public records on this issue saying <br />that the Council authorized the Mayor to go and <br />talk or whatever. To clear this up maybe a copy <br />shoul d be rent to Councilman Davidson, so we can <br />stop this stuff before it starts and get this <br />whole thing cleared up. <br />Carnival: If the article in the paper was to prove that <br />things were done behind our backs and not in <br />public, I totally disagree with that, there are <br />lots of things that the Mayor takes guidance from <br />his Council and he doesn't always have to have a <br />public vote' to allow him to do some things that <br />are typical procedure that the Mayor just does. <br />The Mayor has always acted in good faith of the <br />community and what is right for the community and <br />has always had the support of the last council to <br />do the things that he felt was appropriate. Once <br />again, there are the little things that we can't <br />have coming out and indicating that this Council <br />is not trying to work together. We are here as a <br />joint team and trying to put together a joint <br />effort to make the City of Louisville the best <br />possible place to live in for all of us. <br />Howard: Agreed that. we need to work together. My concern <br />is if the Mayor has in the past gone out with the <br />feeling that the Council has giving permission to <br />talk to versus city entities, I think it would be <br />appropriates at this point for me to say that I <br />personally before any such thing happens in the <br />future, I would like to know about it. If we all <br />know what i.s going on maybe these things will not <br />come up in the future. <br />Szymanski: It seems to me like when the Mayor went to talk to <br />someone it was with the approval of the Council. I <br />don't see that he did anything without our <br />knowledge. I think we have to have some trust. <br />We are here' to fight for our city as a team. Not <br />to go against one another. Let's cut out all this <br />stuff, let's do things together. <br />Carnival: Councilwoman Hornbostel has put together a <br />14 <br />
