@Hospadaruk. Everything we do is political. Where you shop, if you recycle and whether or not you ride a bike or drive an SUV are decisions made in accordance with your politics. It’s not news that politicians are politically motivated.

Practically every action that council takes that requires money is an unfunded mandate, particularly when going into debt on the taxpayers dime for the new city hall and the underground parking structure.

“Over the years I’m sure there have been many citizens who have communicated with council via email who would have assumed some level of privacy and decorum.”

I wouldn’t know because I’m in the 4th Ward and the few emails I’ve sent to my reps over the years have all been unanswered.

Whereas, let it be RESOLVED: This citizen thinks that Anglin’s “resolution” is completely politically motivated, an unfunded mandate, and I really believe it is a prurient circus being clothed with the virtue of “open government”.
Over the years I’m sure there have been many citizens who have communicated with council via email who would have assumed some level of privacy and decorum. Mr Anglin, I would not have their private issues dragged through your unkind streets.

I suspect the date on this entry has the wrong year:

“Dec. 15, 2009: City Council rejects resolution to establish a Historic District Study Committee for Germantown.”

Yes, I did approve the change to the ballot language. However, the city is on its own as far as any legal challenges.

Before council approves MORE housing what is the status of the condo development at WLiberty/Maple Rd? Abandoned already? Is this going to be another fiasco like Jackson Rd/I94

A few corrections: Mike Anglin is representing Ward 5, not 2 (see 3rd paragraph). Also Peter Pollack is a landscape architect, not an architect.
