The meeting software the city clerk uses shows the time of each speaker, including council members and the public on the monitors at the dais. The single most significant cause of lengthy City Council meetings is the interminable rambles and harangues of Corky Booze.

Last night he spent almost 40 minutes, mostly repeating himself multiple times, criticizing Code Enforcement, including the attorney who sued him over his junkyards, and demand they all be laid off to help balance the budget. Then, he spent another ten minutes arguing about motion passed by the council to “end debate”  so that he could finally be shut down

I have to give Jovanka credit for the idea of photographing the time clock, shown below. We both posted these on Facebook.
