It’s a Catch-22 vote. The only thing to ask yourself is…..which one will take us to Portlandia the soonest? Vote the slowest if you know the answer.

If she chooses to maintain the status quo (if elected), then the citizens have every rigth to call her out as to if the “listening tour” was just a bunch of B.S.

Her last segment of this tour will be Tuesday Nov. 26 at the Cole-Ustick Library, 6pm.

The endless growth will continue.

Ms. McLean seems as eager as Mayor Bieter, to throw taxpayer dollars at every challenge faced by Boise citizens. I haven’t heard a peep from either, about trying to reduce the city budget or provide some property-tax relief. (They seem to think the only people who are struggling with affordable housing are the indigent.)

That said… I hope we can “term limit” Mr. Bieter, so I’ll vote for McLean. And if she lives up to my expectations I’ll hope and pray for a better option, 4 years from now.

The less publicity the better, since he is playing catch up.
