It's B), though you wouldn't know it by the Green Party talking points which 
get regurgitated onto this list every now and then. For the record, the members 
of the commission were:
   
  Republican
  Parker Trostel (Chair)
  Michael Finch
  Lyall Schwarzkopf
   
  IP
  Karen Collier
  Todd Ferrara
   
  DFL
  Steve Claypatch
  Everett Pettiford
  Rick Stafford (appt. by Council Majority)
   
  Green
  Fred Markus (appt. by Council Minority)
   
  By my math, that's three Republican appointees, two Independence Party 
appointees, three DFLers and one Green appointee.
