As I posted before, only one councilor responded to my call
for responsibility and accountability. While Mayor Paul Harpole and Councilors
Lilia Escajeda, Ellen Robertson Green and Ron Boyd didn’t answer or even publicly
accept responsibility for the Wallace Bajjali debacle, Brian Eades responded
later Feb.2. Over the next several days, I will deconstruct this response. Now,
before anyone accuses me of being petty, take note of an important point: Eades’
responses reflect the talking points from councilors and others whose faces are
covered with egg over this mess. If voters want to make informed decisions about
the May 9 races for the Amarillo City Council, the information I’ll post over
the next few days will give you context and a way to make your own judgments.

George,
Since the publication of the
"Downtown Strategic Action Plan - 2008" all of the 3 primary projects
have been included. Their inclusion continues. Since that time, we have a new
city manager, new mayor and all new city council members technically except for
me. We have a new hotel developer, a new TIRZ chair, a new Center City
president, a local government corporation and a new DAI executive director. We
have a new traffic engineer and even a new animal control director etc. Yes
George, things change. As does the weather, economic indices, financial
fortunes and your investment portfolio. Thanks heavens for some modicum of
continuity. Now, in regards to your statement, I can't for the life of me find
a question mark anywhere in there.
