At last Monday’s Council meeting (1/23/2012) there was an intense discussion about San Carlos’ $600 a year membership in an organization called ICLEI. Why was this such a heated topic? Few people in San Carlos are even aware of what ICLEI is, let alone why membership in it should be controversial.
I’m writing this post to explain why an issue unknown to almost everyone generated such passion, and to explain why I voted to reaffirm the City’s membership.
