John Austin: CDA Press: Councilman Mike Kennedy made a motion that tabled the (Hagadone annexation) agreement until the next City Council meeting and directed staff to reopen negotiations on the path width and clarify whether the boat slip is for city-owned vehicles only or if other agencies would be allowed use. Well done, Mike, along with Deanna and Al. Although I agree with Barlow that those items should have been addressed by staff, it is the Council's right (and obligation, I believe) to question items of such great importance to their city. BTW, if you haven't noticed, DFO (and I know you have), CDA has a great Council and mayor serving their residents right now, at a time and place when they're really needed.

DFO: Indeed, this is the best mayor/City Council lineup I've seen since Jim Fromm and the Gang of Four days in the mid-1980s. I'd make one adjustment to the lineup, to make it stronger. But that can wait until the next municipal election.
