It’s really easy to point out when someone is about to do something wrong. Many of us did that this week when the Rancho Santa Margarita City Council majority indicated their intention to appoint a replacement for Councilman Jesse Petrilla while on a 3 month military training assignment out of state.
Well, today in a special meeting the majority of the Council changed course and decided not to make that temporary appointment.
I am not sure exactly why the Council majority changed but from the OC Register article it is clear that Councilman Jerry Holloway recognized the emotion involved in this and said so.
When people do something right we need to recognize them for that too. Thank you to Councilman Holloway.
Of course Councilman Steve Baric was solid on this issue the whole time.
