[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They will never be voted out. Every election, no matter how bad things are in Alexandria, they get re-elected. Same with the school board.

Nothing changes. And it’s not the mayor who makes these decisions. It’s the city manager, and he’s not elected. [/quote]

He is approved by the mayor and CC.

I disagree.  I think the one-party rule is about to be broken in Alexandria.  There is a lot more unhappiness than I've ever seen of or heard of before in Alexandria.  You see undercurrents of it on FB and ND.  This whole thing with the CC member closing his street to thru traffic was an eyeopener for a lot of people.  Lots of underhanded and unethical behavior.  It is coming to light.[/quote]

NO ONE seemed to care that the city council and the mayor voted to allow that 0.9 mile bike lane, that cost over $1,000,000, that was basically for the head of BPAC to have a bike lane connecting his daughter’s house to his house, all with a crosswalk right in front of his house (that no one uses, no one, it’s a pointless crosswalk, he got his blind friends to literally lobby for it because he works with a bunch of blind charities). His daughters blabbed all about it thinking the community would think their father is so clever. But there was backlash.

Don’t worry, same guy is spearheading the Duke street changes. What he wants, Wilson and the city council give. All those complaints re the bike lane fiasco, and they all got re-elected. It’s like Trump in reverse, they could do ANYTHING and the Wilson mafia would still vote for all of them. [/quote]
