How many sides in a Council President's mouth?

Council President Wagner is quoted in Friday's Phoenix as having been in favor of interviewing planning commission candidates before Council made an appointment.

Please, Mr. Wagner, if that is what you favor, why then did you vote for an appointment before the interviews?

All the Council Members who pretend to favor interviews first but voted anyway to appoint should answer the same question.

If this is the way that Council is going to treat the planning commission, why not just abolish the commission and have Council take over the planning task directly?

PS. What makes Mr. Messina think that a planning commission appointment can be rescinded by Council? Aren't members appointed for a term, not at Council's pleasure (whim)? Messina needs to resign, so Council can fill the vacancy.

As a registered Democrat, I am appalled at the shenanigans going on in Borough Hall.

After the primary election, where I can vote against Hillary, I am changing my registration to Republican!
