City Council
Dear City Council, Cell phones are one of the many things that businesses, organizations, and other companies have a major problem with. City Council feels that they should be banned from facilities because people don’t consider the other people surrounding them while having a cellular device in use. Me on the other hand I feel that city council should not ban cell phones. Cell phones have made a great impact on human society and I strongly disagree that cell phones be banned from any facility such as restaurants, movie theaters, and retail stores. For Example, I could be in one of the facilities that you stated and get an important phone call. This call can be from a business client or family member concerning an emergency. This call could be life or death situation for a family member or it could be a lost of revenue from a business client. Not being able to receive phone calls could result in a great decline in income to my company and a lost of communication with family members during an emergency. Even Though, phones are used for family emergencies and business related calls, businesses should not be accountable for locating misplaced phones. People each and every day are constantly walking in and out of different facilities leaving behind their phones. Their phones are either stolen or turned into the manager of the facility. While others may believe that phones should not be allowed I feel that if you cannot be responsible for your own device there is no reason why the individual shall have one. So I truly do believe that phones should not be banned from any facility there is.

Sincerely,
Nyla

    Should cell phones be banned in privately owned businesses? Since cell phones became popular in the mid nineties, their uses have expanded drastically: from rudimentary functions such as calling and texting, to 3-D video games and access to the internet. Some might argue that these new features can cause more harm than good, especially in a privately owned businesses, but I think that these features can actually improve the experience of the people in those spaces. Cell phones should not be banned in privately owned businesses because they can improve the customer’s experience, benefit the business, and potentially save a life.…

    The city that we have built ourselves on is very organized. The Houses provide jobs, while the fields outside the city help produce food for the masses. Our government contains a City Council, who is one body representing all men collectively. Each City Council works under a Senate Council, and the World Council regulates our entire infrastructure, governing all men to help protect us from human evil. In addition, you can attend to many exciting events within the city. City Halls hold social meetings, which are big gatherings of all the people within the city. You can get to know other people who have the same beliefs as you. Also, they help remind us of our important roles given to us by the Council of Vocations. Their wisdom decides where…

    City Council Case

    The debate and opinions in this case is different for every person on the council, whether it is standing up for Fran or pushing her out the door. I try to put this situation into context; trying to picture this situation in my city or village. There is quite a bit that this study leaves out, such as population and the city's historic culture, but with that being said, I still have to address the question as it is. The most important issue for the council and the city is trying to determine whether they want to continue on the path they are going, keeping the government solvent and a well-oiled machine, or try to make the government more personable again like the way it apparently…

    City Council Meeting

    The city council meeting could have been interesting if it hadn't dragged on for so long. At first I wasn't sure of what was going on because I couldn't find where they were at on the agenda. I finally found my place when they were doing the announcements and presentations. This part of the meeting took the most time, but I guess it was the most important. They gave six different presentations. The first was a proclamation in recognition of Business Appreciation Week. Four people went up on stage to accept the proclamation and the Pres./ CEO gave a speech. Next was the presentation of a certificate in recognition for Costco Wholesale. The received the BRACE award for "Retail Business of the Year." Dr. Min-Lee Cheng then went up to accept a Proclamation in recognition of "Mosquito and Vector Control and West Nile Virus Awareness Week.…

Many drivers have a habit of driving a vehicle while using a cellphone. This has lead to the outlaw of cellphone use while driving. Those who agree with this law believe it will be very helpful to their community, while those against it believe the law infringes on their rights. Those against this law have not considered the positive affects this will have on many citizens. Therefore, cellphone use while driving should not be allowed!

    City Council Meeting

    For my project I visited the Los Alamitos City council. The beginning of the meeting started with a call of order then proceeded to the roll call of the board members. After these steps had taken place the Pledge of Allegiance was said and the meeting began. As each speaker had their turn to speaker about their topic I noticed how democratic it was after a person had given their speech each of the board members voted on the issue and the matter was either passed or declines, it was very similar to direct democracy. Also each speaker was given five minutes which is plenty of time to get your ideas across to the board, and it’s just a long enough time so people don’t get sidetracked or bored. But the only problem that I can see with the five minute rule is if you have too many people speaking at a meeting, not everyone will have their chance to speak. While they’re I noticed that the size of the city council building was a little smaller than expected, because they were unable to sit all the people who attended causing a majority of people to stand in the back during the course of the meeting. There were many issues brought up during the meeting, one of the first issues dealt with the location of Verizon services through Los Alamitos, and the installing and construction that would happen if the city were to install Verizon services. Another important issue that was brought up was the increasing rise in water prices in los Alamitos, which any of the citizens at the meeting talked about and many proposals to the board. An finally one of the Last issues had to deal with trees uprooting sidewalks and roads throughout Los Alamitos that where cased by trees. Out of these three main topics the one that most surprised me was the cracked sidewalks and roads from trees. This most interested me because of the stimulus money that was put into fixing roads in the us has not helped out damaged and pot hole filled roads and sidewalks. These trees should be…

    Although our city council is considering teenagers or kids should not be allowed out on the streets after ten on school nights and twelve on weekends, My opinion is that they should let them be out at anytime. Their parents could tell them that they should be in by a certain time, and if they don't, that is the parent's decision. They should be smart enough to know that they should not be out on the town too late. The weekends, I reckon they should be allowed to be in the town on the weekends anytime!…
