Very disheartened! I have been a Sonoma citizen for over 25 years and have been watching city council meetings since we moved in. I was quite shocked at the level of disrespect shown to the Mayor on April 6 (“Mr. Coleman Goes to Sonoma,” April 10).

Do we want to become just like Santa Rosa’s city council? Gary Edwards seemed to have a personal agenda at the meeting and made a mockery of the procedure for choosing commissions - and newly elected Rachel Hundley followed suit. Shame on both of you!

Gary, when you are Mayor, I truly hope you are given more respect than either of you showed to the Mayor and our town. I voted for David Cook because he has always shown respect and been honest on all the issues. Can you say the same?

Why did you act so juvenile and so entitled when you have only been on the council for a little over three months? I would advise you to reread the bylaws and remember these policies have been in place for many years and will remain in place after you leave. I truly hope Mayor Cook is shown the respect he has earned and deserves.

I think you should start to show a little humility just as Mayor Cook has done.
