Manitou Springs council members say they learn more from media than city

KRDO: There appears to be tension among Manitou Springs council members and city leaders over the information being released to the public.

In a city council meeting Tuesday evening, Manitou Springs council members Julie Wolfe, John Shada and Judith Chandler expressed concerns over not being made aware of what the city is releasing when responding to open records requests.
