A Reply From City Hall

A while ago, I posted a link for contacting the Walla Walla City Council.  I used it to complain about the City's attempt to exempt themselves from the same rules the rest of us have to live with.

And, Lo!, I received a very nice reply:

Thank you Mr Stidham for your views.  I totally agree with you.  As you may know, I voted against the proposal and I do plan to vote against the Ordinance when it is presented.  As you have said, it is the process that needs changing and to do that, we will have to change the State's administrative rules for communities that are under the Growth Management Act, as are we.

So it works.  Do make use of it.  Including supporting the right people, and not just complaining (although there's a lot of that which needs doing).
