Council fails to meet

| | Comments (0) |

After weeks of lectures and threats, City Council President Eric Garcetti on Tuesday canceled a scheduled meeting after a quorum of 10 members failed to appear in chambers within 20 minutes.Daily News

"I've been talking about this for several weeks," Garcetti said, closing the meeting for the first time in at least a year.

"We have an obligation to be here at 10 o'clock on meeting days. We leave the public waiting and it is the wrong message to send. It's a violation of our rules and we shouldn't ask the public to waste their time."
