It’s ridiculous that there’s no way to get to the Crisler Center as a pedestrian coming from the downtown or nearby neighborhoods without having to walk through a huge parking lot and scrambling over hills in the dark. Try adding a couple sidewalks @UMich
“I can’t go downtown anymore because there’s no parking” #a2council

Heads up #a2council libs
This is in reference to Linh Song mentioning refugees during this week’s council meeting. Nelson has stated she is currently meeting with other angry residents to devise a strategy to retake #a2council next year.

As it turned out, the 2018 elections made a *huge* difference in how the city is run. Just not in the way some hoped. #a2council
Wow. For the first time since I’ve been following things, the #a2Council race is all but over after yesterday’s nominating petition deadline. The only challenger is perennial Ward 4 challenger, Mozhgan Savabieasfahani.
@AaKarenin I’d rezone OWS at least d2 so any non-contributing building could be big.
@robutterback @AaKarenin @beadoz That's somehow an order of magnitude worse than I expected. I can't imagine how awful it must be to exist with such a dead heart.
@sstrudeau @adammsmi @AaKarenin This relates to my residential upzoning statement about water main sizing and fire suppression. We'd need extreme infrastructure updates to go in this direction, and there is a lack of willingness to make even mildly uncomfortable decisions for more housing.
@AaKarenin This meeting was… something. We shouldn’t be making perfect the enemy of good. Apparently things we have been clamoring for—walkable density close to destinations, more housing, affordable housing funds, tax base—are “not public benefits”. Make it make sense #A2Council.
@sstrudeau @AaKarenin How bout this for Paris density…by Ignacio Prego Architectures
@AaKarenin But remember, Affordable Housing is not a community benefit.
@AaKarenin According to some residents, these are already allowed b/c exclusionary SFZ has already been eliminated🙄
@AaKarenin @UMich Yeah, this is a problematic area with SO many pedestrians. We used to have meetings at the Safety and Security Building and you had to walk through parking lots and goat trails to get there.
@AaKarenin It’s gonna be awesome when housing gets proposed there and the same people will be mad about it for different reasons
@AaKarenin A tower to rival the proposed Legends Tower in Oklahoma City would be a perfect use for the Brown Block. It is a shame this prime real-estate is so moribund.
turns out the local nimbys who always complain that new housing isn’t affordable are now mad at the affordable housing because it replaces their favorite small parking lot that they never actually use #a2council
@AaKarenin Yep. Exactly. x.com/akgood/status/…
And yet, this is not as insane and hypocritical as that time a few years ago when residents of a fancy new downtown condo building hung up a giant banner telling people to vote against building more fancy new downtown condo buildings #a2council
@AaKarenin @a2_whatsamatter It appears that she has removed it, but of course she can’t do anything about the screenshots of it circulating.
Our community deserves better than mean-spirited MAGA-style insult politics. CM @lsong is an empathetic, generous & results-driven public servant. #AnnArbor voters deserve serious leaders & I’m grateful they rejected this cynicism & nastiness in the last #A2Council election.
This is in reference to Linh Song mentioning refugees during this week’s council meeting. Nelson has stated she is currently meeting with other angry residents to devise a strategy to retake #a2council next year.
@AaKarenin Here's what I've previously said about Linh Song on social media. I stand by every single word of it.
@lisauve_ @AaKarenin A reminder of what it was like to serve with her: #a2council
CM Hayner just called me the c-word on the way out the door, while CM Nelson snickered. And someone tampered with my and CM Grand’s mailboxes on the way out. #a2council
@jeneyer @AaKarenin Being the bigger person deserves some big kiddos. Appreciate that you never meet down at that level. Keep it up!
