Ask former alderman and current RCDC member John Barton his current opinion on this issue that he personally created two years ago. Isn't it ironic? Should the city buy out the city administrator's recently renewed contract? Her extended contract is illegal (many people voiced concerns that were ignored regarding this extension) and so is null and void. A previous council cannot bind a future council to any employment contract per the city ordinances. It is too bad our city attorney serves only the administrator and not the people of Rollingwood who pay his fees. Buy it out? No! Should we purchase the wastewater system from the LCRA? Sounds like a very good idea and one that should be immediately considered, especially before money is spent on other low priority projects not in the best interest of the majority of citizens. We don't have money for handicapped accessible bathrooms? Golly gee how did that happen? The previous council and current administrator spent too much, that's how.
