Re councilmanic prerogative (and my earlier posts on the subject):

Quote:
The practice is virtually unchallenged. According to a 2015 report by Pew Charitable Trusts, in recent years Council has never voted on land-use issues against the wishes of the member whose district the property is in. Of 730 of those votes, all but four passed unanimously, the report said.
Also, I'm embarrassed that I've been spelling the term incorrectly.
