Very disappointed in how all but one of you handled this emergency declaration especially
when you appeared to not fully understand the law and could have taken this up at a later date. This is the Nancy Pelosi “Let’s pass it to find out what’s in it” B.S. You forget a
representative government by citizens and not your own feelings. Remember elections haveconsequences.

To whom it may concern,
I am aware we have this pandemic going on around the world but locally here in
Kalispell most everyone is following orders of social distancing. I’m very concerned
about the city council members of Kalispell delegating powers all to the city manager
up to and including the ability to declare any form of martial law as that’s not in our
best interest and should only be left up to ELECTED OFFICIALS ONLY and not the City
Manager as he’s not an elected official! We don’t need a “Police State”, I personally
don’t agree with just one person wielding that much power and speak for many. Also,
there shouldn’t be any Council meetings the public can’t attend for public input or to
peacefully protest. Please consider this when you cast your votes!
Sincerely,
Gary.
