Cougill seems to ignore the fact that city council meetings are open meetings; they don't require invitations. It is not a forum for one or both sides of any local issue; it is a forum for Charleston citi zens and voters to voice their concerns - union members or not. After union members asked Cougill for a spot on the agenda, Cougill simply said he would "think it over." They were asking to speak as citizens - not as union workers. Every other Charleston citi zen should be aware that the mayor isn't will ing to listen to all residents. The workers, who helped in electing the mayor and have a say in his re-election, were not asking the council or the mayor to take sides.
