I agree with Rebecca Eisenberg but I still think the more troubling element is that 16 acres the fry’s site changed hands between developers but then somehow people knew to buy the adjacent 40 acres and the entire 60 acres was up zoned; A lot of these were, or a subset were, Black families selling the family farm so to speak.

So doesn’t it really appropriate that you’re meeting here behind closed doors on a federal holiday… If you want to go down in history is a bunch of Peckerwoods who did whatever you could to hurt Black people

You know, Pat Burt our mayor saying he has only six minutes and not a full nine minutes to hear the viewpoints and opinions of his constituents, before he and y’all disappear behind close doors for an hour, on a federal holiday that neither you nor he choose to respect, proves what a mother-fucking sorry state our so-called democracy is. Shame on you. MBW
