I personally feel that any past Council decision can be changed by the |
| 10 |
present Council. People and circumstances change. |

If I and my colleagues make a dumb decision, there is no reason for |
| 13 |
everybody else to be saddled with it 5 years from now. It isn't like |
| 14 |
we're infallible; we do the best we can. |

Sure, the Council should also use discretion in changing past |
| 17 |
decisions so that we don't just waffle back and forth, but such |
| 18 |
discretion is something people should be looking for when picking |
| 19 |
their Council members... |
