Petition Update: Transparency Matters for ALL City Decisions

Thank you for supporting this petition to ensure responsible planning and public health safeguards surrounding Lawrenceville’s proposed wastewater treatment plant. Your voice has helped raise awareness and demand accountability.

But this fight for better government goes beyond just one issue.

I’ve started a second petition focused on improving transparency and public access in all areas of city government. It calls for:

• Livestreaming and recording City Council meetings
• Posting meeting agendas and recordings online and on social media
• Publishing contact info for Aldermen so residents can actually reach their elected officials
• Going above and beyond the minimum requirements of the Open Meetings Act

Whether you work late, attend church, care for loved ones, or are serving in the military — you still deserve to know what’s happening in your hometown.

If you believe in these basic standards of open government, please support this second petition by signing and sharing:

Let’s keep working together to hold our city accountable and demand better from our leaders — not just on one issue, but across the board.
