Mayor Lizee - Doing favors?

4/23/11

During the 4/11/11 Shorewood Council Meeting, a resolution to make April 16th Healthcare Decisions Day was approved. Per the meeting packet and the discussion at the meeting, the Mayor was approached by the Grathwol Law Firm of Excelsior with a request for Shorewood to adopt this resolution. That the City would consider this seems appropriate since, among many other reasons, the Governor had already proclaimed the same.

What bothers the Insider is that the action recommended once the resolution was made was to send it back to the law firm and nothing else. This smacks of doing a favor for a business rather than encouraging general public adoption of Healtcare Directives.

See http://windowsmedia.alphameetings.com/LMCCShorewood/041111shorewood.wmv at the 59 minute mark for the discussion and Mayor Lizee's explanation. Does this pass your smell test?

Happy Reading!
