Council attendance update

It’s been awhile since we highlighted our City Council attendance tracker, so here’s the latest:

Council members Wu and Townsend, who both advocated against the new charter, were absent for the special November 25 meeting to certify the referendum results.

There are no longer any Council members with perfect attendance. Mayor Mike Wiggins, the last holdout, was absent for the November 12 special CRA meeting and now stands in a tie for second place with 98%.

The leader is Councilman Sam Hall, who has zero absences and one early exit, leaving him with 99% attendance. He remains the only Council member who has made an appearance at every meeting.

At the bottom of the board we have Councilman Ron Townsend, with a total of ten absences, one late arrival, and two early exits since the current Council took office in January.
