It seems the City of Kent has chosen not to include the Seattle Times' "history of troubles" article (and others' follow-ons) in its "Latest Updates -- Recent News" list on that page. It's best to not confuse the good citizens with too much information, I guess.

Yeah I noticed that too. Can't say that I'm surprised though.

Same thing with either of the new Kent Reporter news stories so far too.

Government is an "easy" target.
Websites, like posts here, are merely snapshots in time.
Even your post would be misleading read on it's own without reference to date.
When someone alters their behavior, let's give credit where credit is due.

I think it took some courage to say this:
Quote:
Ranniger, the City Council president, was also displeased that the council found out about Amiga's demand to control all of the arena's technology advertising from a Puget Sound Business Journal reporter.

"We're not as informed as we'd like to be," she said. "I don't know the reason why not, but I find it very disturbing."


Also, we have a new program initiated by the Mayor (email) born out of a realization that communications needed improvement.

In addition, the website content has changed here:

http://www.ci.kent.wa.us/eventcenter/index.asp

"Recent News:" now shows links to more current info, that paints the current situation the way it truly appears.

All of the above represent changes/statements made in reaction to understanding how communications let them down.
Admission of these issues and actually taking action to rectify the situation is worthy of praise in my book.

-That- action even further magnifies Amiga Inc's -lack- of action in solving -their- communication issues.
