In the halcyon 2nd wave of Feminism, when we passed credit legislation and abortion in Colorado before they were even U.S. law, some of us boneheads who believed when women were in positions of power there would be more justice. We had not encountered an immense piece of corruption like Megan Oliphant sitting on city council. Monday night, not only did she disrespect the research on my piece in a magazine with a couple university professors, but next winter when your street isn’t plowed as soon as you think it should be, you can thank her.
No. 7 on the council agenda was an item: Consideration of accepting Langworthy Ct. Right away. The accompanying notes stated the 2013 Council refused to accept the right of way. Ms. Kotter gave an explanation, which only confused the issue. Councilman Riley Rausch motioned to accept the street. I jumped up and said, “Hey wait a minute! Why did the previous council refuse to accept it?”Councilman Bill Hosch, who also objected to accepting the street, explained that originally there was to have been one open lot that would allow city workers to pile the snow there, but Mike, as he often does, filed to build another unit in the empty space, that if I recall, was also supposed to be access to an adjoining park too. So, I said, "Well, since Beck caused the problem, let him pay to have the snow removed in perpetuity." Rude, crude, discourteous piece of work that she is, Ms. Oliphant 2nd the motion over my comment without allowing me the right to finish.
