[3]She told NBC 29 that she was "appalled that we were making decisions at the middle of the night. Changing major things like transportation strategies that don't meet our current needs based on a late minute phone call with bad information."[4] Neff went on to state that "someone needs to stand up for the citizens and listen to them."[3]
