Despite being run by idiots, Chicago is still a great place to live generally. I would love to see how much better it could be with continuous competent leadership but seems like a pipe dream.
The Roll Call lets Ald Knudsen (43) off too easy. He effectively voted in favor of this disaster TWICE. Once in favor to move it out of the Finance Committee to the full City Council, and a second time voting with the Mayor and his allies in full Council to keep the ordinance from being sent back to the Finance Committee for rework. Not sure why he changed his mind for the final vote. My guess is he's just trying to have it both ways.
Austin, can you run for mayor! I think you would be great. You always are looking at the bigger picture.

Austin, every city, township, county needs a guy like you to ferret out the facts. Thank you for what you do!

Great job, Austin.
