.Oakland Council Needs to Tone Down the Jealousy

Oakland City Council members apparently think they’re too good to sit on the same dais as Mayor Jean Quan at their meetings. Quan had promised voters during the campaign to attend council meetings if she became mayor — as did ex-state Senator Don Perata and Councilwoman Rebecca Kaplan — in part because citizens had grown frustrated that Ron Dellums rarely came to meetings when he was the city’s chief executive. But council members apparently want Quan to sit in the crowd and not with them when she’s on hand.
