Last night, at the regular meeting of the City Council, Councilmember Doug deHaan issued a call for review of the Planning Board's decision to establish a subcommittee to talk about holding a forum to talk about Measure A. This suspends the Planning Board's action, thereby postponing all action on the matter until the Council can talk about talking about talking about Measure A.

Editor's Comments:

This is an outrage! I can't believe the Council and Planning Board are hurtling ahead at breakneck speed, talking about talking about talking about Measure A! Shouldn't we first sit down with each and every member of the community, in the comfort of his or her own living room, and talk about talking about talking about talking about Measure A? It's time to slow down, take a deep breath, and proceed carefully. As we all know, every Alamedan supports Measure A 110%, because Measure A is the Cat's Pajamas and the Best Thing Since Sliced Bread; however, if people rush willy-nilly into talking about it, they might not talk about it correctly, and if that happens, Poof! Measure A could just disappear in a puff of smoke. In short, we like everything the way it is, and we shouldn't jeopardize all that by even thinking about talking about talking about talking about Measure A.
