Yes, we all got on each other's nerves. Some of us listened. Some of us dug our heels in. Some of us came in with an open mind. Some of us lamented being urban planners when we didn't go to school for that. Some of us had zesty commentary. Some of us kept our mouths shut.
Looking forward to my BZA item tomorrow, where a gentleman who bought his property in the mid-70s for about $15k is mad that a faith community wants to build on the 20 acres next door.

Neighboring #TN05 — the district the GOP flipped by cracking Nashville — is a bit less red at Trump+18. It also features a much worse Republican candidate.

50 million people in the US don't have enough to eat while as much as 40% of food rots before being eaten. That's equivalent to 120 billion meals a year, which is more than TWICE as much food that'd be needed to feed 50 million Americans 3 times a day for an entire year.

Finished my Thanksgiving weekend helping my niece move. She's out in the world adulting and learned a very important lesson - purge before you pack. We reached peak "Just throw everything in a garbage bag and stick it in the U-Haul" levels tonight.
