" Jeff Coates is a pawn of the administration. He always sides with them. We have only 6 of the 7 council members representing this community.

Mark Bauer runs this city with an iron fist. John Wise has never had an original thought in his head.

Time for some accountability! "

" When you review the broadcast of the last Council meeting you can see several things of note:
- Mark Bauer and the Mayor in private side conversations (makes it look like Mark is actually the one in charge and not the Mayor). Makes me question who is running things at City Hall.
- Appears that Councilman Coates is siding with Administration (again) in wanting to keep this issue quiet. Issues like this demand that the public be notified and informed of how their elected officials are acting. If they're not acting correctly, we, the people, have an obligation to vote them out of office.
- In trying the Gavel-down Councilman Ennis and Councilwoman Reynolds, The Mayor was incredibly rude and un-professional in his conduct. Makes me wonder if this is what he's really like outside the public eye. He owes them an apology. "

" It is high time the Mayor and City Administrator were called on their childish and irresponsible behavior. I think that Councilman Ennis deserves a round of applause. "

" This is an election year for the Mayor. We need to take a look at how he has handled this issue and the Nestle bottled water plant and think about whether or not we want our city run this way. It may be time for a new mayor, city administrator, and city attorney. "

" Instead of impeaching the mayor because you don't agree with him, why don't you go to the next public meeting and become a gadfly. Expose the corruption! LET THEM KNOW THAT YOU'RE NOT GETTING YOUR PIECE OF THE PIE.The best place to look out for your own special interests is being the mayor or the city attorney. That makes them pretty smart and you very stupid. Remember, you can't fight city hall. "

" Shame on you on the council who would not step forward and voice your favor of making the discussion of the matter public. The city administration of Enumclaw has earned the reputation of doing questionable things behind the publics back.Examples are the city not going by its own building codes and rules (example the jail building, , the unscrupulous taking of the Industrial Skills building,the breaking of their own rules in regards to the city property next to the Chamber of Commerce office, and the mayors trying to personally control the outlook of the city. Residents of Enumclaw you should wake up and smell the coffee. Your have a real conflict of interest in having the City Attorney controlling so much property in the city. He takes care of his properties, yes, but at what cost to the residents and other property owners. This is a time for openess not "

" Here Here!! Let's call for a recall for Mayor not-so-Wise and his henchman Mark Bauer! "

" Enumclaw SHOULD be enbarrassed!
Not by Ennis' request to the AG, but about how Enumclaw conducts business in general.
Enumclaw has 'small town sickness' - not understanding there is talent and knowledge locally to undertake any municipal project. One example of this was the city contracting a CALIFORNIA firm to redesign Cole Street. Nobody local, to my knowledge was ever even asked if they were interested, let alone able to participate. Instead Enumclaw looks nothing like a 'modernized' Enumclaw, but is a vision of 'what it should look like.
Same thing is now happening with the 'logo'. What it 'should look like' and in reality what Enumclaw is are quite different and with egos clashing, the mayor (lower case intended) is pushing his personal preferences over what is good for Enumclaw. MUCH LIKE WHAT HAPPENED WITH THE NESTLE WATER DEBACLE!
Time to RECALL the secretive and underhanded mayor Wise. "
