She is committed to actually listening to what the residents want and she'll abide by and promote THEIR agenda, not her own. I think you will find plenty of people who are leery of Summers' assertion that the absentee landlords skewed the overlay survey results. What were the specific numbers? Has he let anyone with a different opinion actually review that tally? Not that I have heard of.advlcehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06080304576713244568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10635442.post-73368113606950349392007-06-01T15:30:00.000-05:002007-06-01T15:30:00.000-05:00If he tables it in the parliamentary sense after i...If he tables it in the parliamentary sense after it comes up on the agenda, then that effectively kills it, the only vote facing the council being whether or not to table it. So, in that sense if he puts it on the table, then he takes it off the table. Are we confused enough, yet?S-townMikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05948307051485318061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10635442.post-47893773662466516232007-06-01T15:05:00.000-05:002007-06-01T15:05:00.000-05:00Another way to take it off the table would be to, ...Another way to take it off the table would be to, you know, take it off the table, withdraw the bill.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
