I find it very interesting the city is wading into this, while I may understand getting information out there for what Shape Places ‘IS’ all the other ballot questions should be hands off by the city. Citizens brought all of these questions forward, so citizens should advocate for them, not taxpayer funded city employees. These are clearly not ‘educational’. It reminds of when then Parks Director Mike Cooper called the mural on the Horse Barn a ‘large painting’ and not a mural because it wasn’t painted directly on the building. A word game.

I totally agree the city has a responsibility to explain the ballot language and what a ‘YES’ and ‘NO’ vote means, but it should stop there.
