We won (!) but it is most likely not the end of it (Sept. 2022)
First of all: kudos to all of you who came to the City Council Meeting tonight and stayed until the end, be it either to show your support or by going on record to provide a public comment. We were also impressed by our youngest defender of the North Bench, who showed a lot of stamina. It takes courage and determination to speak on a topic like this in public, and you can all be very proud of yourself. It was also great to see that, despite the high stakes and there being a lot of emotions in the air, the statements stayed on topic as they were civil, at least from our side.
Because we only had 2' each for our slot, many things were left unsaid, therefore, you can send us all your public comments and we will post them all, just give us some time. Now is time to analyze, regroup, and come up with a strategy for next time.
Thanks again,Your Friends of the North Bench
