June 18, 2010

The Lake Effect News announced Phelan vows to bring “active transparency” to city council for the 46th Ward. The article states:

Saying there was “a difference between transparency and putting something up on a web site because a city ordinance tells you to do it,” Phelan vowed to bring “active transparency” to Chicago.

Molly Phelan: “I’m going to tell you what’s going to happen before it even happens. I’m going to tell you what’s in my mind and I’m going to have my open community meetings video-taped so that if you have to work late you didn’t miss it. You can go home and watch it on your computer,” Phelan said. “You’re not going to miss a thing because I’m giving it to you. You don’t have to find out anything about me because it’s going to be right there.”
