June 10th 2008, Lawton City Council Meetingby Deputy ()Tonight the Lawton City Council will hold its regularly scheduled meeting. The meeting will start at 6:00 PM. You can also tune in to watch it on Lawton Cablevision. The Deputy The Lawton Metropolitan Planning Organizationby DeputyToday, I was shocked by what I witnessed online. The The Lawton Metropolitan Planning Organization or LMPO has posted some information about the proposed Bike routes though Lawton. While this information is important to us as citizens, I would have to say that I am a bit disturbed at how they were doing this. The LMPO has posted a direct link to a secure FTP site of the vendors. While a link is not the problem, the fact that within the link is the userid and password for the FTP site is disturbing. I was surprised to find not only information about the Lawton project, but projects dealing with the Texas Department of Transportation, Tulsa, and several albums of Music up for download. While I am far from being a security expert, one would think that there would be a better way to post this information than to give out a password or userid. Here are some links. http://www.lawtonmpo.org/ http://www.lawtonmpo.org/secondary.php?section=2 I will post some screen captures soon. The DeputyThe Water Bill and the Budgetby Garrett Jackson ()On Tuesday, 3 June 2008 the Lawton City Council held a special meeting. Among the many things that was discussed was the rising water bill. Cynical ploy of the dayby DeputyOur friendly prairie dog friend, Sheridan, has posted on his own blog about the happenings with the City of Lawton's 2nd Street Project. His observations are below, but it is some food for thought.
