Interesting.

Not sure I'm a fan of term limits for municipal governments, ok you force out the dross, but you also lose the talent.

Eisenberger is right when he says:

Quote:
"Too many councillors are just focused on their wards only and don't keep an eye on the greater interest of the city,"
It also seems to me, from a purely outside perspective, that there is a lot of lower city vs suburbs going on and the lower city seems to always lose out due being outnumbered on the council. Do we think there could be a chance that the lower cities issues could possibly become separated from the suburbian issues to allow for a greater focus in these areas or does that set a dangerous precident?
