Broadcast Hempstead Town Board Meetings Online
It is important that Hempstead Town Board meetings be put online to insure that Town government acts in the best interests of it's residents.
Why is this important?
Since August 2010 I have attended every Town of Hempstead board meeting. During this time I have witnessed the Hempstead Town Board violating the Constitutional rights of residents at Town Board meetings.
People critical of Town government are given less speaking time than residents that offer praise.
In addition, the press (which is at Town meetings) does not report these violations or other news that may be of interest to residents.
I have asked Hempstead Town Supervisor Kate Murray and the Town Council members (on many occasions) to broadcast Town Board meetings online and they have refused.
I feel it is important to broadcast Town Board meetings online to give residents insight into the workings of their Town government and to prevent their Constitutional rights from being violated.
