I think downtown deserves its own councilmember, instead of sharing one with the east side. Obviously the needs of downtown and the needs of the east side do not coincide, as indicated by the creation of downtown specific organizations such as this.
Interesting to notice the absence of community organizers from this group. Maybe regentrification got in the way.
