Beasts of Burden

When Councilman Best says, ".. the reality of this project is on the horizon without the imposition of additional burdens", he means that the Council will not be burdened by actually doing DUE DILIGENCE, and looking at ALL the options in order to find the best deal for the RESIDENTS. The Council, in their infinite wisdom, has relieved us from that horrible task of becoming fully informed while, at the same time, relieved themselves of their sworn duty and responsibility to the people. Ever thoughtful and concerned about us, they have also eliminated for us the arduous task of voting, so that we are not burdened or inconvenienced by the process of exercising our democratic rights on this issue. This process of democracy can be SUCH a burden. We are fortunate to have City officials to relieve us, and them, of those democratic rights and responsibilities whenever they feel its needed.
