What I do remember is that it was "rumored" that Sue lived in Pacific Sky Estates when she was litigating and voting as Mayor on the difficult issues surrounding this human tragedy. I thought it was odd that she had not recused herself but I figured that perhaps the "rumor" was false or that this potential conflict had been looked at and deemed OK due to the emergency at hand.<br />I specifically remember the dressing down, then Mayor Sue Digre directed at the whole city last year as Christmas was approaching, for the public's greed and apparent lack of empathy. I remember that it made me very angry that she was lecturing the city for this problem when everyone knew that the actual cause for our lack of affordable housing was the selfishness and constant sabotage of any construction in Pacifica by Sue and her wrong headed devotees for the last 30 years. <br />Now Sue, John and Deirdre are perpetrating the biggest insult of all by continuing to work against affordable housing and/or revenue generating development in favor of trying to unfairly tax a tiny sliver of our population, mom and pop building owners, to pay for this huge problem under the guise of RENT CONTROL. In most cases these local fellow citizens who have worked hard and sacrificed all of their lives to own a small building for their retirement now face the theft of their life's work by failed city government priorities. Deirdre is even proposing a retroactive "take" of previously paid rents. She also wants to write a letter to CALTRANS telling them thanks but no thanks, the city doesn't want their money (our tax dollars) to fix snarled Highway One traffic. She claims the "majority" of Pacificans feel the same way as she does yet she blocks a public vote to find out otherwise. You see, a snarled Highway One is a blessed problem to have because it helps the obstructionists work against any and all revenue generating development in Pacifica. Can't have it both ways. <br />The current 3-2 council should put it's money where it's fake heart is and put a sales tax increase on the next ballot so that EVERYONE in Pacifica can contribute to the plight of our homeless and marginally employed neighbors in Pacifica.<br />Not only are we being manipulated by the government in the White House we are being manipulated right here at home in little 'ole Pacifica.mike bellnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7481238059942383326.post-78832199295886193962017-05-02T08:28:35.211-07:002017-05-02T08:28:35.211-07:00Steve Sinai said...

Recusal is to avoid the <i>potential</i> conflict of interest even if it turns out there wasn't any in the end.<br /><br />Our grammar challenged friend at 12:26 has a point: apply your criteria to all council members that have ever recused themselves from an issue and you'll see that your stance doesn't make sense. Nihart could have sat in on Library matters (because it never was approved)? Stone could have sat in on Park Mall Senior Housing matters (because it was never built)? That's not how it works -- they didn't know nor could they know the end result at the time they heard the items.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7481238059942383326.post-28874419950092719152017-05-01T13:43:57.025-07:002017-05-01T13:43:57.025-07:00Could she have benefited financially?
