Editor:
Wednesday night during the debate, council candidates in the primary election were asked if they supported Walkable Main Street on both Saturdays and Sundays.
All said no.
Councilmember Luke Distelhorst was challenged on this. It was known that he hadn’t supported my efforts to bring discussion of imposing limits on administrative authority to close rights-of-way to the council agenda . In response, he suggested that he had asked me to return with parameters, and that it was my dropped ball in bringing them back that led to council inaction.
I take complete exception to this and asked (and still ask) CM Distelhorst to correct the record.
