When we go to the polls in a couple of weeks to vote for At-Large Councilmember, we will be voting to fill, not one office, but two. So Acacia and I decided to open our home on Monday the 29th to At-Large Councilmember, Michael Brown (details below). Although Michael is the first to admit that he has had a tough year of allegations, we believe you should come and talk with him yourself. When Bloomingdale and Ward 5 were about to be sliced and diced at the hand of our former councilmember's redistricting plan, Michael Brown stood up and said, "No." He knew the proposed redistricting was both harmful to Ward 5 residents and illegal under the law. He was open to discussion and reason. He listened to residents. In the end, Michael moved through the plan that we have today that kept Bloomingdale completely intact, created more rational boundaries across the Ward, and distributed residents in ANC districts in a balanced and ungerrymandered way. Just for what he did for us in the redistricting alone (which will affect for the next 10 years), Michael Brown deserves to be heard. But we can also say that any time we have wanted to address an issue or concern with him, Michael's door has been open. In fact, few councilmembers will so readily take a call or meet with you face to face like Michael Brown.
So come out on the 29th and talk with Councilmember Brown (details are below). He needs to hear from us and we need to know his views on all sorts of issues that affect our community.
We look forward to having you.
