Fucking idiot local, unelected politicians
Aug. 7th, 2001 08:45 pmI am so pissed at the moment. I'm on the committee to redraw the boundaries for the Area Neighborhood Commissions and Single Member Districts (what passes for local government here in the District - see http://www.anc.dc.gov for more info), post-Census. We had a meeting tonight, our second. The last meeting left me, at least, with the impression we'd be in the same place, a municipal building here in the Ward in which I live. So I rush home early, snarf down food, run out the door, get down there a little after the 7 p.m. start time, to discover they moved the location downtown, two blocks from where I work. I am -not- a happy camper. I wrote a (polite) email to the committee chair and my city Councilman informing them that less than 24 hours notice of a change in venue was -not- sufficient (they emailed us at 10 a.m. this morning, well after I'd left for work, at my home email addy). Grrr. Nothing like getting shut out of local politics!
Sorry, my blood is just boiling over this one.
