Our mayor is in La La Land

On May 20, 2024, “Governing,” a website about state and local government, reported that,

“Mayor Aftab Pureval says that every issue that comes across his desk is looked at through two lenses: equity first then climate.”

Then the mayor is quoted, “When I look at the time horizon of the next 50 years, the cities that get those issues right are poised for incredible growth and success,” he says.

Are we really supposed to believe the mayor when he tells us that his first, second and third priorities are public safety?

I wonder what he saw in terms of equity and climate when the issue of Patrick Heringer’s murder crossed his desk?

Our mayor is in La La Land.
