What a surprise that a council member who was caught taking an illegal campaign contribution from Gordon Commercial Real Estate wants to upzone residential neighborhoods so developers can make more money!

Droste committed a crime by accepting that contribution. I think she should be prosecuted for a misdemeanor and, if convicted, barred from holding elected office as specified by BERA.

This was not a minor paperwork error, it was a serious corruption-related offense.
