City Council members in Westminster adopt an ominous resolution encouraging all residents of Westminster to raise their voices against individuals who fit the profile of an “aider and abettor” of the communist government in Vietnam.
Westminster Mayor Tri Ta’s allegations that the Vietnamese government is disrupting City Hall are now part of an official city policy, despite critics’ claims it labels his political opponents “communists” in an attempt to turn Little Saigon against them.
The Vietnamese government is behind more than six months of political turmoil at Westminster City Hall, according to Mayor Tri Ta. He did not provide specific evidence for his claims, which could become an official city statement.
Westminster officials are considering moving their bi-weekly city council meeting to a monthly basis. Officials argue the move increases efficiency while opponents question the impact on public comment, access and accountability.
Two different campaigns target all five council members.
Westminster City Council members are approaching another debate over whether they should subject themselves to term limits.
The entire Westminster City Council is looking at a possible recall.
A recall effort has begun against the three-member majority of the Westminster City Council, Kimberly Ho, Charlie Nguyen and Mayor Tri Ta.
Lan Quoc Nguyen, an attorney and Trustee of the Garden Grove Unified School District, writes to defend recent actions in Westminster to limit council members’ ability to get issues on the official agenda for discussion and votes, taking aim at new council member Tai Do for his opposition to the new policy.
The City of Westminster will release an official statement denouncing Councilman Tai Do over his recent remarks on the state of city politics, following the approval of a controversial new policy that gives the dais’ majority faction more control over agenda-setting at meetings.
