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. |

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. |
