Our star reporter P.J. Thuringer checked in from the City Council chambers a short while ago, where Mayor Elect Tom Henry announced some key members of his new administration. There were no big surprises (for me anyway). I was a little bit disappointed for personal reasons in one of the decisions, but also am sure he knows what he is doing. Two key persons he announced were Deputy Mayor Mark Becker, who is currently Deputy Mayor under Graham Richard, and John Urbahns who will be continuing as Community Development Director. I am fond of both of them in a professional sense, and look forward to having them serve in the new administration.
Also of importance to note: the 2nd District council race recount was held this morning and the winner will be announced tomorrow. Am still pushing for Karen as I truly believe she is the best person for the job. Regardless it's a whole new world when it comes to the City Council, and while we talk about losing the cable, it's hard for me to imagine not having CityTV to watch!
