Mayoral Candidate Don Johnson gives creative proposals on his website:
http://donjohnsonmayor.org/
The Observer reports on Johnson's campaign:
The Don Johnson mayoral campaign continues to churn out material. The latest
salvo promises that a Johnson administration would "reduce taxes, pollution
and greenhouse gasses and build renewable energy with state and federal
funds that would not only produce thousands of kilowatts of free, clean
electricity and not only produce thousands of jobs, but most importantly
stop the flow of billions of dollars out of our city and state by reducing
our overuse of fossil and nuclear fuels."

I think Johnson is right on target. If we look at Minneapolis as an
energyscape, we see that we ignore ways of producing clean energy here while
growing more dependant on environmentally dirty and economically oppressive
energy sources. If we do the right thing in terms of environment, we will
also create jobs and more business in a future-oriented industry.
Energy independence begins at home.
Don Johnson -- check out his website -- offers some real ideas about how we
might face the future with creativity to create a vital city in a rapidly
changing world.
