Sorry to disagree with my friend Dyna Sluyter, but I hope both candidates
will NOT spend time talking about preparing for such emergencies.
Unimaginable events of this level happen infrequently, and are of
such a magnitude that almost any plans would be inadequate & outdated. On
the other hand, many of the issues we have discussed on this list
(affordable housing, development & zoning, police & crime, city
infrastructure & budgeting to pay for it, etc.) are daily issues for the
Mayor of Minneapolis; and I would rather see them spend their time
discussing these real problems.
