Just ridiculous.

It's has to be the first time I've heard Pardue speak, pretty sure he hasn't even been here.

In the range of $13k-$15k.

I understand not wanting a waste facility in your neighborhood but to say that it will bring gentrification?  wtf

[nashwatcher]

if the waste facility discussion is 20 minutes will the soccer one take hours?

[titanhog]

Makes sense to get that waste facility away from the creek and river.

Not enough for the job they do. That being said 40 council members is way too many.

OMG this dude is reading the op ed he wrote in the fish wrap.  gtfo

Cooper beating the drum that no site selection research was done. "Manipulation of the process is what the city hall has done."

"Don't let this split the community", he says.

[BnaBreaker]

These folks seem unhinged.  There's nothing wrong with being passionate, or even angry... but to be angry over something you just made up?  Uh... yeah that ish cray.

Also, Wedgewood-Houston, a suburban neighborhood? Man, that clown is on one tonight.
