"It is clear that under the administration of [Academy] Master [Sente] Kiteway, the Academy has lost its way," Earlywine said. "It is my hope that the reintroduction of transparency to the highest levels of the Academy will restore the public's trust in the Academy and in the City Council." --Nathan "Evil" Earlywine, shortly after rising to power following an impromptu election |
The goal of the oversight committee is essentially to report to the City Council, and make sure the Academy is acting in the best interest of those in the city who look to it for guidance and excellence.
It is anticipated that the committee will not take direct action itself, but will draft a proposal to present to the City Council; however, the council's resolution forming the committee did allow for the committee itself to request authority for unilateral executive action if it becomes necessary.
