I dig the process. It's like the olde tymes days of surveyors in woolen knickers traversing through farm fields chaining off proposed rights-of-way, then working with the farmers for land acquisition and smooth grand jury proceedings establishing fancy new country lanes conveying prosperity to all.
good good stuff.

Anyone know if the Mayor attended this?

Pretty sure he wasn't there. He probably would have spoken had he been there, and I was there for the whole thing.

Good thing the Mayor's office announced the meeting yet he didn't show.

I like how the press release from his office quotes him.
...but srsly, projects like these shouldn't need pols to "manage" or "champion" or "push over the goalline." if it's warranted or meritorious, then bureaucracy is sufficient.
