[Davisgig] Tax Measure at City Council 07/07/2015

[Douglas A. Walter]

Yes, MFO should be a "priority capital project," and is much more important than a sports park (which I believe has been bandied about for funding through this). Yes, I would like to express a view to the Council. OTOH, are we going to see a jamming of the public comment period, or… who on City staff if going to report on this, and will the Chief Innovation Officer be asked for any comment?

(I feel like I let go for a little while, and am now trying to catch back up.)

I absolutely adore the unicorns 'n' bunnies utopia implied in the phrase "a drug-free world." Sort of like saying "a dust-free desert," or "a salt-free ocean" or "an adultery-free Republican party." It's like they let an oversheltered child come up with their name. "Partnership for No More Icky Things Like, Ever" Mark Morford 8/12/2009
