More on Parking

An article in the Somerville Journal quotes Alderman Pero as saying "city officials can't give in to constituent concerns."  Huh?  Isn't this otherwise known as listening to the people who voted you into office?  And will vote you out?  I understand they haven't come up with the right answer yet, but this statement is arrogant and lame.

Um okay then. Any reaction to the general message sent here (direct quote or not)?

Not at this time. I just wanted to make sure you were aware that the alderman might not have actually said what you said he said, in case that changed anything about YOUR reaction to the piece. It might not, for all I know.
