DESCRIPTION:Let's end the divisiveness in local politics.\n\nTuesday's Santa Cruz City 
 Council 7:00 p.m. agenda includes a proposed action to improve the civility 
 and tone of Councilmember interactions, including the adoption of mediated 
 conflict resolution when the need arises.\n\nBut, amazingly, the item right 
 before that - "Censure of Councilmember Chris Krohn and Councilmember Drew 
 Glover" goes directly contrary to the spirit of ending divisiveness in City 
 government.\n\nWe are troubled by this development, and urge you to show up 
 at the meeting and respectfully let the City Council know you oppose the 
 censure motion and urge the Council to adopt less divisive approaches to 
 resolving differences.\n\nThis will be a time to act with the care and 
 mutual respect we expect from our elected leaders.\n\nThe censure motion 
 appears to be an attempt to boost the recall against Councilmembers Drew 
 Glover and Chris Krohn. It seems intended to provoke an angry reaction - to 
 get another news headline blaming Chris and Drew for the Council's 
 dysfunction.\n\nInstead, we are focused on making sure that the City 
 Council represents everyone and respects all points of view.\n\nPlease join 
 us in a firm and courteous rejection of the censure motion as a misguided 
 attempt to divide our city and block progress on crucial city issues.\n\nWe 
 are hopeful that the Council will promptly reject the censure motion. Then 
 the public can weigh in on the next agenda item which commits the Council 
 to a mediated conflict resolution.\n\nDetails:\nSanta Cruz City Council
