13 This is a tough one. If the council does start to become more proactive,
14 there would need to be a way to guard against the council stepping into
15 a project and dictating how that project will do things without fully
16 understanding the implications of their decision.

18 If the council is an arbitrator, it is up to the people involved to be
19 sure they bring as much information as possible before the council so
20 it can make an accurate decision.
