Didn't Councilman Powers Have a Bill Proposed to Rescind Workforce Housing?

If Bill Power's honestly believes that workforce housing should be rescinded, as was in a ordinance he proposed recently, shouldn't he have the courage to stand on his convictions, lead by example, and not be willing to introduce development plans using this code?

Or was his proposed bill just as the News Journal reported - nothing but a political campaign ploy?

The Resolution Councilman Powers will sponsor is listed is on the Council agenda for Tuesday night, July 26:
