Tippecanoe residents signing below request that the Tippecanoe County Council set their regular monthly meeting time to be consistent with the Lafayette and West Lafayette city councils and be more accessible to working residents.
We respectfully request that the regular monthly Tippecanoe County Council meetings be set no earlier than a 7:00 P.M. evening starting time.
I have been spending my evenings drafting formal requests to the council members to ensure they understand why this change is essential for working families in our community. Seeing so many neighbors speak up about their inability to attend these meetings proves that our current schedule excludes the very people these officials represent.
January 2, 2009
Seeing this level of support confirms that I am not the only working person struggling to balance my job with the need to participate in our local government. This momentum proves that our neighbors are ready for a time that actually respects our schedules.

How are we supposed to participate when they meet during the work day? Its completely unfair to the taxpayers.
