[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We voted out Brandon Todd. Ward 4 views may not be same as Ward 3 or 6 views![/quote] Good for you guys up in Ward 4. We need your spirit down here on CH, but there don't seem to be enough educational minded voters to oust Charles Allen. What can he really do about schools anyway? He's just one council member and the Mayor doesn't give a hoot.[/quote] I appreciate your energy, but would appreciate it more if you would take a few minutes to understand how the Council works and that your ire is misdirected. There used to be a Standing Committee on Education. Mendelson disbanded the Committee and moved it to the Committee of the Whole. In essence there is no direct oversight; it is "oversight by all". Which means little oversight. And what oversight exists is controlled on high by Mendelson. As long as oversight lives with the Committee of the Whole, Mendelson controls it. [/quote]
