[quote=Anonymous]Is anyone else following the drama around the "power grab" that would allegedly give Elrich more say over the Planning Board? I guess State Sen. Ben Kramer introduced a bill at the state level that would shift the power balance away from the County Council... not really sure how that works... and all the urban planning-type people and the Council themselves of course are in outrage over it.

I have been following it on a surface level but I'm ambivalent. I do think it does look like an Elrich power grab, and I in a twisted way appreciate how it angers the people who I don't like. That doesn't mean it's a good idea. I also do kind of think that the Planning Board is due for a Draining of the Swamp considering this year's debacle with Casey Anderson & Friends, and who is to say the new council wouldn't just hire a new flock of Casey Andersons? Who knows. I just hope that whatever happens, happens, and it doesn't become the next big thing that Elrich and the Council fight about senselessly. I'd like to see both branches of government work together for once.[/quote]
