I must disagree with my friend & neighbor Ms. Becker -- this DOES have a
place on this forum.
As this 'attack on Cherryhomes' is entirely an attack on her
positions, I do not think it is a personal attack of the kind that is
prohibited on this forum. (David can respond, if he wishes.) I think that
was indicated by the title Ms. Becker gave to her post.
I would say that if we can not argue about the positions taken by
an elected official on this board, it's a pretty useless forum.
That said, I would have to agree the Ms. Cherryhomes (and the Mpls
city government as a whole) has done little if anything to increase
affordable housing in the city. In fact, I would suspect that city actions
over the past years have resulted in a net loss of affordable
housing. However, lack of affordable housing is a problem all over this
country, so it is asking a bit much to expect local officials to fix a
nation-wide problem.
