Neosho council joins residents for dialogue and donuts
NEOSHO, Mo. — It was an informal Thursday for members of Neosho city government.
Council members and other city officials were part of a casual gathering Thursday morning to share a cup of coffee and donuts with residents and talk to them about anything they had on their mind.
This particular type of an event was a first for the city and now one it plans on hosting at least once a year.

'I've had some good conversations this morning with a couple of new people I've not met before, a couple of people who've invested in Neosho. I've introduced them to the city leaders, city manager. It's been a great outing for us,' said Neosho Mayor Richard Davidson.
'We love when citizens come in and speak with us. Sometimes it's the only way that we know certain things are happening in our community — and, along with council, they really appreciate everyone coming and talking to them about things, because then they can make sure it's addressed,' said Jessica Johnson, Neosho public information officer.
This was also done in conjunction with this week being Missouri Municipal League's Local Government Week.
