Voted for Janeese Lewis George because she wasn't Brandon Todd and it's been GREAT!  No regrets at all.[/quote]

I love Janeese! She's responsive, speaks with constituents on the street, and most importantly, fights against traffic violence and out of control drivers in Ward 4.[/quote]

She wants to reopen Beach Drive to vehicular traffic and also thinks violent criminals should go unpunished. Think before you post.[/quote]

Reopening upper Beach drive is important for Ward 4.  [/quote]

Interesting, I would say NOT reopening is important for Ward 4.[/quote]

The Ward 4 council member has publicly come out in support of reopening Beach Drive.[/quote]

Yes, that was where this conversation started. I just think many in Ward 4 -- including my family -- disagree. I generally like Lewis nonetheless. [/quote]
It’s possible that you hold a minority view among residents in the neighborhood and that she’s considering the views of everyone in the Ward, which I would think is a good thing. [/quote]

similarly the decision should be about the overall city and not just Ward 4. [/quote]
And what is so important to the “overall city” such that deference to the Ward councilmember should be ignored?[/quote]

Parks are an amenity for the entire city. More broadly, if we gave “deference” to each councilmember or ANC on transit projects, literally nothing would ever get done. [/quote]
This is not a transit project. So not sure what point you are making. It’s also a Federal park and not a local park. [/quote]

even more of a reason not to “defer” to Ward 4 on the matter of a park owned by the entire country![/quote]
