By April Sither, Scarborough Town Council
The Council held a productive goal setting meeting on Saturday, January 25th. The meeting, unlike most (if not all) of our other meetings, was not livestreamed or recorded, which we took a little flack for on social media. Candidly, we work week after week, on camera, in some pretty high pressure situations. At goal setting we dressed casually, moved around the room freely, ate snacks, and joked as colleagues do. It was good for our council dynamics, and I appreciated the relaxed setting to do some really great work, and eat cookies without my kids knowing exactly how many.
