The homeless homeless campus?
What is the message city taxpayers are supposed to take from the implication by Chattanooga Mayor Ron Littlefield that there hasn't ever been a real plan for the proposed homeless campus on 11th Street?
Furthermore, what is the reality of Littlefield's comparison of his dream complex to the 21st century waterfront project? Is that a fair match?
Sure, I can see how one would argue that the homeless campus helps more people in need than does the spiffy waterfront. But that assumes that the homeless campus actually becomes reality. And without a plan in place, what with the waterfront actually being real, it's hard to see where the comparison can start.
Were Chattanoogans bamboozled by a career politician whose promises have little to show for themselves? Will someone of the necessary means the necessary means for* a vigorous challenge present voters with an alternative next March?
These are a few of the many questions at hand with regard to the current administration.
More to come, I'm sure.

forgive my ignorance, but please tell me there's a term limit for the Chatty mayor?

In my opinion, the best term limits are ones imposed by the voters. That said, if Littlefield were to win re-election in March 2009, he will be term-limited after that second term.
