Interesting that 5 council members who like to proclaim they are "proud to be a Democrat"
voted like Republicans today....corporations over people.

The City did a good thing today, but will the only two energy companies leasing in the inner City return since they redlined the City months ago?

Ron, what took you so long to get here? Have you been celebrating at the V2 with Mayor Sam and the "fracking five"?

Hey Dennis, 
No, I don't like those leaders either.  Remember, they arrest shrimpfarmers too.  V2? too much drinking for me, just got home from loading up a dismantled barn in Levittsburg to recycle in Poland.  I'm beginning to enjoy associating with the rural landowner types rather than the inner City folks, landowners seem more down to earth and work hard.  I guess to your focus I was doing green things today, reusing American chestnut floor boards and 8X8 hand hewn beams.  I really  enjoy the old historic stuff.

Ron, don't tell your buddies at "Go Marcellus Shale" that you were doing green things today...they'll kick you out of the club.
