We are hearing a lot of discussion around town about the Times’ using their editorial policy to slant what they publish.
Maybe suggesting news stories that they could publish would help.
My first suggestion would be a story about how city council is considering ordinances next Tuesday, May 21, 2013 to rezone over 1,100 acres of essentially residential property that was developed decades ago. It seems that they want to change these areas to SCZ zoning (smart code zone).
You may agree that this would be a good idea or then again you might not. Either way rezoning thousands of residences without public debate is shameful. It is typical of this city council.
The article could point out that the items have been postponed twice, probably to consider them only after the election. One current city council member who could not run again instead chose to run for the EPISD school board. I can’t help but wonder what the residents of her school board district would have done had they known that she was advocating changing the rules on their property.

David Crowder wrote about this in a mid-April issue of El Paso Inc., but the ritzy Inc probably has few readers in the Five Points and Ysleta areas. Here is a link to Crowder’s story:

This blog has become nothing more than a place to criticize the Times and City Council. Not worth reading anymore. I hope you all enjoy each other’s company and get pleasure out of your complaining. It’s tiresome to read so much negativity and bellyaching.
