"ONE BIG HAPPY FAMILY": Hizzoner Jivin' John Giles Creates His Own Alternative Reality in New Mesa Urban Myths

ICYMI: Long-time City Manager Chris Brady barely had time to swallow his fast mouth-full of breakfast (caught on closed-cam at the start of the short 8:24 'Study Session'), but it sure looks like he had plenty of time to produce and direct all the actions for the regular meeting 45 minutes later
. . Let's call it a Self-Induced "Ain't We Great" Diatribe where usually empty audience seats were filled by summoning a supporting cast-of-characters for bestowing Proclamations, Awards and Recognitions.
It all started with an Invocation from a person Giles referred to as "my friend" on a remote Zoom hook-up. Then a Proclamation to observe a week of non-violence. . and then a series of awards for a first-of-its-kind "Heritage Neighborhood" where Mexicans and Blacks were once excluding from owning property [that's called segregation] and then it was time for the city's IT Department and Economic Development Department to roll out the rest of "The Chris Brady Show" scrambling when summoned to get into the picture. . . ENJOY THE SHOW!
There were not one but two special videos produced by city-owned and city-operated Mesa Channel 11 - one for him as a voice-over and one for Mayor John Giles doing another voice-over.
