Fellow Council Members, before we leap to a resolution on term limits could we possibly have some discussion on their MERITS?
I don't think we're "leaping" - please don't over-react. If I read Bruce's message correctly, we need to have a motion on the table in order to have a discussion of the issues on the agenda. Since I am interested in having a discussion on this issue, I thought it would be best to table a straw motion that would clear the procedural hurdle in order to have a discussion. The enthusiasm you are seeing, I believe, is simply indicative of support for a discussion of the issues surrounding term limits - which in reading your messages, you would seem to support as well. -ross
