Jason – read that entire article. Bell all but admits he will bring up the stay because he was beaten down into doing it. He then goes on to BLAME Cathcart and Lofink for getting involved at all. At least (and I do mean the least Bell has done so far) was admit that his constituents have valid points (yet he’s pissed about it), but look what Penrose Hollins has to say about those legitimate points Bell points out. Councilman-at-large Hollins says they are NOT legitimate.
That whole council is an ILlegitimate piece of shit, top to bottom. Pompous asses!!!
RSmitty is on the money. This council and executive like the ordinance.
The key to that article is to read it all the way through and not skim it. The headline and first few paragraphs are OK for Bell, then the truthfulness of their attitudes towards their constituents comes out loud and clear. Unfortunately, in the dead-tree version, all that happens after the jump.
