WATCH Camas Forum Rules
1. No Spam / Advertising / Self-promotion in the forums
That means unsolicited advertisement for goods, services and/or other web sites, or posts with little, or completely unrelated content. Do not spam the forums with links to your site or product, or try to self-promote your website, business or forums etc.
2. Do not post “offensive” posts, links or images
We can have a discussion, but let's be good neighbors. No blatent defamation, harassment, or abuse. Nothing deemed generally obscene, racist or otherwise overly discriminatory is permitted on the forums. Use common sense while posting.
3. Do not cross post questions
Please refrain from posting the same question in several forums.
4. Remain respectful of other members at all times
All posts should be neighborly and courteous. You have every right to disagree with your fellow community members and explain your perspective. But please do not blatently attack, degrade, insult, or otherwise belittle your neighbors.
5. No abusively "bumping" posts
A new post flows to the top of a feed, if you consistently post comments clearly intended to get your posts to the top of the page you will be contacted and can be banned if you refuse to stop.
6. Do not knowingly post copyright-infringing material
Providing or asking for information on how to illegally obtain copyrighted materials is forbidden.
7. No logical fallacies please
A logical fallacy is a flaw in reasoning. Logical fallacies are like tricks or illusions of thought, and they're often very sneakily used by dishonest folks to fool people and make them feel crazy. Common examples are: Straw Man, bandwagon, appeal to authority and gaslighting. See examples here: yourlogicalfallacyis.com
8. Please use your real name for your account.
We are real life neighbors in a real life town. This is the internet, but it's not THAT internet. We ask that you use your real name here (first and last). We feel that real names help improve the discourse and keeps posters accountable. If you have trouble changing that, please contact us for guidance.
------------------------
Enforcement
You will never be banned without discussion. If you violate the rules stated above you will be warned if appropriate or immediately banned and contacted for a discussion. If we can clarify a misunderstanding, you will be reinstated.

This roundabout project is not essential and doesn't satisfy the definition of any of the exceptions. The only thing we've done is legally tie up millions in vital city reserve funds during this unsure moment to Clark and Sons Excavating of Battle Ground, Wash. That company obviously can't proceed with the work, but it's legally promised through the council's approval and not accessible to Camas should we need.
The mayor made a poor case for proceeding with Steve Wall during his video address last week and he has since said that he is not going to reverse the decision. He has unexercised power to fix this and IF ground breaks at Lake/Everett, Barry owns the decision to proceed.
Inslee also suspended Washington Open Public Meeting Requirements for 30 days, so they can hold their next 2 meetings in private without us. So much for all that new transparency.
As I was composing this entry i wanted to refer to the City of Camas website for details and interestingly front page reference and the news section does not have any reference to the project that was there 10 days ago. Why does this information get removed, edited or buried as in this case 3 levels down !!!
