Mayor won’t commit to open meetings

March 5th, 2012, 2:31 pm · 7 Comments · posted by

Mayor Steve Bach formally announced the creation of the Pikes Peak Region Mayors Caucus on Monday.

The group includes the mayors of surrounding communities and the commission chairpersons of El Paso and Teller counties.

The group has met twice before, first on Feb. 2 and then again Monday morning.

Both meetings have been behind closed doors.

Will the group’s future meetings be open to the public?

Bach said the Pikes Peak mayors caucus should do what the Denver Metro Mayors Caucus does.

“I don’t know that those meetings in Denver are open to the public,” he said.

“We should find out, and we should pattern what we do, I think, after what they’ve done because they’ve been very successful,” he said.

I’ve got your answer, Mr. Mayor.

The Denver Metro Mayors Caucus meetings are open to the public.
