"I appreciate the confidence the Council showed when appointing me to this commission. However, as a person who has shown support, confidence and appreciation of the Council there is little evidence to show that you were truly supportive of my participation in furthering your efforts to create an opportunity for others to feel welcome and confident presenting their concerns," Porter wrote.
Harrington wrote that the ongoing struggle over agenda items coupled with a lack of respect between commissioners escalated hostilities into meetings that are "uncomfortable, tense and stressful."
