On the basis, and others the judge ruled for McCall and ordered the city to compensate him for the loss of the house. Rather than doing so, however, the city is appealing. If McCall is really as you describe him, why does he keep beating the "lefty" leadership in the city in the courts? As to Peera, he is trying to renovate the property you mention. His complaint is that city won't let him and he is also beating city halls in the courts!
Don’t get me wrong, I fully support both McCall and Peera, it is thier property and they should be allowed to continue.
I just know my personal thought on Peera’s property was “What a dump” and MCCall’s was “good god are they ever going to do anything with that eyesore”.
THe comment about the districts was just that, about the districts, as you pointed out we have no idea how McCall and Peera voted, but the fact is the district at a whole chose the bed they are being forced to lay in.
Anyway, I apologize for being a little rude and reactive (I reread my posts and feel that way), and just want you to know that I do support thier right to thier property.
