City of Coral Gables “Values”

It is worth contemplating the “values” that underpin the Commission, management and employees of the City Beautiful (as seen regularly in the E News of the City).   The recent events surrounding the retirement of the City Manager bring into question whether these values are being fully respected in the conduct of city business–there are citizens who say they are not.  They certainly remain as significant guiding principles for the future of the City.
