Charlotte Moses is making excuses for canceling the December 30th meeting, and it's embarrassing.This isn't a “staff mistake.” This is leadership failure.Mayor Moses is old enough and has been in office long enough to stop playing clueless. If you've been sitting in that seat for years, you don't get to hide behind the City Attorney and the City Secretary and pretend you “didn't know” what the ordinance meant. Read it. It's not written in code. It's clear.What makes this even worse is her logic: “Let's see how they did it a few years ago and just copy that.”That's not governing. That's laziness with a title.A real leader doesn't outsource accountability. A real leader doesn't shrug and blame staff when it's THEIR responsibility to make the call. And a real leader doesn't cancel a public meeting, then act like they had no choice.If the ordinance says the meeting must be rescheduled, then reschedule it. Period.Stop stalling. Stop dodging. Stop disrespecting the public with excuses.Because at this point, it's not incompetence, it's a pattern.And the people of Port Arthur are supposed to accept this “low-effort leadership” like it's normal.No.This is exactly how corruption survives: blame staff, play confused, delay accountability, and keep the public in the dark.Charlotte Moses didn't just cancel a meeting.She cancelled responsibility.#PortArthur #PortArthurTX #CityCouncil #OpenGovernment #TransparencyMatters #Accountability #LeadershipMatters #DoYourJob #PublicService #StopTheExcuses #RespectThePeople #TexasPolitics #LocalPolitics #CivicEngagement #SunshineLaw #OpenMeetingsAct #GovernmentWatch #HoldThemAccountable #NoMoreGames #TaxpayerMoney #CommunityFirst.

This week, we spoke to former deputy city attorney Scott Lindsay. Voters soundly rejected Lindsay's former boss, Republican Ann Davison, last November, but Lindsay argues that many of her prescriptions for addressing crime and disorder were sound—including "stay out" zones for people accused of using or possessing drugs in public, extra penalties for people who commit misdemeanors like shoplifting over and over, and the elimination of community court, which Lindsay called "a complete disaster and shame and stain on the record of city attorney [Pete] Holmes."Although the city has arguably been ruled by a moderate-to-conservative supermajority for at least the last four years, Lindsay says they failed to accomplish all their goals, in part, because former mayor Bruce Harrell wouldn't always get with the program. Seattle, Lindsay argues, still has "radically too few police officers," "no consensus about what to do about our most pressing public disorder problems," and neighborhoods that have been "destroyed" by people using and selling drugs in public. PubliCola has frequently pushed back on the notion that cracking down on so-called "prolific offenders"—the subject of a report Lindsay wrote for the Downtown Seattle Association in 2019—is a solution to the problems facing neighborhoods like Little Saigon that have faced decades of neglect and disinvestment. Lindsay agreed—and said that isn't the point. "More people will die every year of fentanyl and meth overdose than will be successful in getting out of the life and getting into treatment and turning their lives around," Lindsay said. "I'm not saying give up, but I'm saying we need to balance our treatment approach with, how do we stop the havoc that these folks create? And one effective way at stopping the havoc that they create is to constantly disrupt. Use legal tools to disrupt their behavior. Convince them that being on the streets at 12th and Jackson smoking fentanyl is going to get you incarcerated. Even if that's for eight or 12 hours that is in effect, can be an effective tool at disrupting the problem behavior and saving neighborhoods. Little Saigon is gone, but others are on the brink."Listeners will probably have strong feelings about this conversation, which also includes a discussion of Police Chief Shon Barnes, community court, and the "radical abolitionists," in Lindsay's words, at King County's Department of Public Defense, which provides attorneys for indigent defendants.Our editor is Quinn Waller. Ann Davison's 2025 annual report, referenced in the show, is here.Send us a text!

We sat down with new Seattle City Attorney Erika Evans and Law Enforcement Assisted Diversion founder Lisa Daugaard this week to talk about changes Evans is making to the way the city handles low-level drug cases.Under Evans' Republican predecessor, Ann Davison, people arrested for simple drug possession or using in public were either jailed and prosecuted or sent to a "drug prosecution alternative" where they have to get an assessment to confirm they have an addiction and stay out of trouble for six month. Evans directed her prosecutors to go back to the pre-Davison policy of reviewing people's cases to see if they're eligible for LEAD, the city's pre-filing diversion program. In response to this reasonable directive, Police Chief Shon Barnes told his officers that going forward, officers had to refer every drug case to LEAD—an overstatement that led to a right-wing media freakout when police guild director Mike Solan claimed Mayor Katie Wilson had ordered an end to all drug arrests. Evans and Daugaard set the record straight, explaining what LEAD does, who it's for, and how they believe this policy shift will actually help people addicted to fentanyl who use in public—which, they both reminded is, is encoded in the 2023 "Blake fix" law that empowered the city attorney to prosecute minor drug cases in the first place."What we're doing is not anything inconsistent with what the law has already recommended for our office to be doing," Evans told us. "But nothing's off the table. If someone is not making meaningful progress with LEAD or in diversion, then we do reserve the right to do traditional prosecution."Our editor is Quinn Waller.Send us a text!

(The Center Square) – The Seattle Police Department has clarified that officers will continue to make arrests for drug-related charges when probable cause exists, with the City Attorney's Office then determining next steps, including diversion to the Law Enforcement Assisted Diversion, or LEAD, program.Support this podcast: https://secure.anedot.com/franklin-news-foundation/ce052532-b1e4-41c4-945c-d7ce2f52c38a?source_code=xxxxxx Read more: https://www.thecentersquare.com/washington/article_86e1398b-1ff3-475e-8c5b-70c37d39b478.html Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
