Gay chickens and dogs discussed in City council? What? Leave it to David Zokaites to help us understand the nature of things and rights.
What can we say about our Sioux Falls public when they need to get something off their chests. Imagine the power in our fellow citizens as they become either brave enough or frustrated enough to challenge the power structure. 2016 is a year of citizen unrest rarely seen in South Dakota. The best part of this is how politely it is done in the Carnegie Townhall on June 14, 2016 for the City Council.
Who in city hall ever thought the public would ever understand zoning enough to challenge the city and protect their property rights.
Who would have thought there would be at least 5 equality rights advocates in front of the City Council? We never did and it was great.
Our mayor even gets into the public input spirit with another 5 minute soliloquy of woo or was it whoa? It was inspiring to at least a few citizens, including your Cameraman Bruce. Bruce and the mayor had a polite bit of discussion on process.
This hour and nine minutes enriched the Council and the public with examples of speaking truth to power, politely.
It’s refreshing that citizens have become more involved. There was so much irregularity and (frankly) corruption force fed and passed through. Public input catches the worst. However, the city attorney altered city ordinances such that we can contest but there’s no amendment options. We voted to not repair an outdoor pool at Spellerburg and got indoor baths for Huether campaign contributors. There was a complaint process before city personnel paternalism. You can demonstrate at Carnegie but it’s really just a dance in front of a tank turret like for demonstrators in Red China.
OOOFFF….He/she needs to get back on the meds.
The folks in that neighborhood need to get a F–in grip. Apartment building are a part of almost every development. Walmart and railroads are one thing, but bitching about apartment complexes is just LOW. Last time I took a drive through that neighbor, I didn’t see anything worth bragging about. Might as well put it on the next ballot and get ready to deal with the results.
