Change City Hall

If we can't beat City Hall, we could try to change it. We can sponsor Ordinances requiring the use of open contracting, end of the RD, and all the other problems we collectively are against. It is clear the elected council members are impotent to act against the dictator city manager and the city staff. It is time we write local laws so strict that the jobs of city management and staff are true servants to the community.
