Position Papers
Business as usual, or is it time for a change?
Our City is being torn apart, by continual fighting on the Council, with charges and counter-charges. The Super Four Majority, who is approving "sweetheart give-away" deals to favored developers is trying to capture the fifth seat. The other side is an incumbent with a "faction running partner" trying to increase his power. Both sides have lost sight of the best interests of the City in their "power struggle".
