Yeah. We've heard that the city council is powerless, overworked and apathetic.

As an aside, I'm pushing back against your use of "modernization." I don't think that tearing down homes to build roads is 'progress'.

But maybe you're using "modern" in the sense of 1950s-ish aesthetic/mindset.

The last statement you made is what I meant. Modernization isn't a great term but I really didn't want to come out the gate being overly aggressive. The bottom line is this - there are people on the city council who will not do something if it benefits working class to poor people in this city. Especially, if they aren't white.
