Will the city secretary please call the roll


In my 2½ years writing about Kyle city government, it seemed I could always count on two absolute certainties whenever I trekked down to City Hall every other Tuesday or on those other special days when the city council would conduct a meeting or a workshop: Mayor Todd Webster and council member David Wilson would be in their respective seats on the dais. So it came as sort of a shock to the system earlier this year when Wilson, for whatever reason, missed meetings on Feb/ 7 and April 4 and then, it was an even greater seismic level jolt when a flurry of bills introduced in the current legislative session kept Webster trapped in Austin until some 20 minutes after the comparatively brief meeting earlier this month adjourned.

After a brief recovery period I thought it might be fun to check the attendance records of all those who have been on the council during the last three years. That produced the following chart. Council members are listed in order of the percentage of meetings attended, from highest to lowest. Do with it as you will.
