The lease for the Alderbridge temporary modular housing building will be extended to 2027.

Dear Editor,

Re: “‘Outrageous’ video cut off by Richmond mayor during modular housing debate.” Online, Nov. 7

I actually went and watched this section of the video and the city council meeting. I am confused here, why are these types of presentations allowed?

Clearly, there is an issue with the quality, factual nature, and legitimacy of these presenters. I am stumped about which presenter is the most problematic. They all have different problems, but they all seem to have one issue in common.

Get to the facts and get to the issues. Where is the data? Where is the proof? Where is the evidence?

If you want the City Council to hear your presentation. 12-page essay, double-spaced, APA or Chicago Style citations.

Try:

1. Government sources

2. Academic sources, and if need be,

3. Collect evidence and analyze information yourself.

Please provide an appendix or addendum with said evidence.

Also, you may provide a PowerPoint and executive summary of your submission before city council before your presentation for review for approval.

Please note certain presentations may not be allowed if deemed to be profane or contain illegal material.
