Are you a resident of Gillies Township?How many people in your household would like to attend Council Meetings?In-person meetings will cost tax payers approximately $150.00 per meeting for security to be present, do you support this additional cost to return to in-person attendance at Council Meetings?Seating is limited to 6 people on a first come first serve basis, does this change your opinion?
Yes 2 Yes No
Yes 2 No No
Yes On line is fine No On line is fine
Yes 8wveryone No If you feel unsafe in this community, then you need to resign. We don’t want to pay these taxes and we live in peace here. Big gov isn’t taking over and WE THE PEOPLE are taking our lives back!! WE do not agree with anything happening on council and if you don’t like this job, resign and let someone else take the position!!! 
Yes All of them No If the sitting council feels harassed and unable to perform their duties as they were elected to do they should resign and call a by election and able minded residents of this community will come together to fix the disaster the current council has created. 
Yes 1 No No response provided
Yes 1 No No
Yes 1 but not to every meeting No All tax payers should pay, only the ones at the meetings. $25.00 each. You want to be there pay for yourself. 
Yes 2 Yes No
Yes 2 No No, I do not see the relevance of having security for 6 individuals. Meetings can be completed through online format.
Yes 0 No no
Yes 2 No $150 for 6 people to attend a meeting seems outrageous, I say we do the meetings and see what happens, as soon as something threatening happens we're done 
Yes One Yes No
Yes 2 No Yes. That is to small of a number. If the facility is to small than its time for a new location 
Yes 1 No no
Yes 2 Yes Yes, we will not support this if the meetings are limited to 6 people. The council needs to be able to take accountability for the decisions and actions it makes to the people they are elected to serve. If they are not capable of that then they need to resign their position to someone that isn't afraid of their own constituents.
Yes 1 No It supports my opinion stronger. Security cost is not necessary
Yes 1 No We cannot hear when we call in to meetings. Our internet is not good. Why only allow 6 people? I have a disability and cannot stand in line to hope to win the lottery to get in. So I should just not bother? Why security for 6 people?  I do agree that people should feel safe but I would even stand up for you against a threat. It is not good if I am getting frustrated about the way Gillies is being run. I am the most patient, easy going person. Gillies is still a democracy is it not?
Yes 1 No No - should not be limited to 6 people 
Yes 0 Yes No
Yes 2 Yes Yes
Yes 2 No No
Yes 2 No There should be room for more. 6 people does not constitute a public meeting. 6 people is a private meeting.
Yes 2 Yes No
Yes 1 No I was told a limit if 3 people-who will determine who’s first?
Yes 1 No Then meetings should beheld somewhere so more people could attend.
Yes 3 Yes No
Yes 2 No No, and full disclosure of the nature of the threats and steps taken with the proper authorities to investigate these criminal activities should be disclosed to the public.
Yes 2 No What a sad state Gillies Township has become. I’m beyond embarrassed to be a resident.
Yes 2 Yes No
Yes 0 No

Why pay $150 for 6 people to attend?
Yes 2 Yes No
