Dear Editor,
In response to “retired former Mayor” Kevin McKeown’s letter of June 21, attacking City Council member Christina Parra, if he had watched the entire Council discussion, he would know that she advocated for establishing policies, procedures, and penalties before embarking on an investigation of Council closed session leaks. She didn't say not to investigate.
Instead, McKeown seems to have cherry picked comments from the newspaper coverage and used those to malign a honorable sitting Council member, one who didn't up and resign from her elected position mid-term, with no explanation to voters. Perhaps his use of the phrase “disturbing and embarrassing” was applied to the wrong person.
