[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t know here he resides, but Katz represents Rockville, an area that will be largely exempt, yet he will still get a vote.

Must be nice![/quote]

How is someone from Rockville even allowed to vote on how the county is run when they incorporate themselves?  It makes absolutely zero sense is utter hypocrisy.  He can go vote to upzone silver spring yet his precious little historic district in Rockville would be exempt from building triplexes?  [/quote]

Because

1. the City of Rockville is in Montgomery County
2. the voters of Montgomery County elected him to the Montgomery County Council[/quote]

Doesn’t explain how Rockville voters can impose policies on the county they’re shielded from. Ridiculous hypocrisy.  Historic Rockville needs to be upzoned with triplexes first before silver spring.  [/quote]

There is no hypocrisy here.  You know how representatives at both the state and federal level get to vote on all types of things that don't have an effect on the little geography where their home resides.[/quote]
