She stated 687 because it was not followed exactly they need to learn from this. She noted Councilmember Carlson 688 had mentioned a few meetings ago that the public hearing was not done. 689 690 Councilmember Dahl stated that some residents have indicated to her that because of the unknown 691 sewer and water, it may affect their vote. She agrees that if it was her road, she would want to know 692 details of how it would affect her property before she voted, because when she spends her money she 693 makes sure the end justifies the means. She stated she knows the road needs to be done, but the 694 reason she likes the Charter process is because it gives people the right to vote. She indicated it has 695 come to vote before and passed overwhelmingly, with two-thirds of the voters in favor. She stated 696 either way it does not mean the City Charter is broken, it just means they went to the people and this 697 is what they chose. She thinks they need to bring it up at the Charter Commission meeting to make it 698 clearer for the City Council or future City Council to follow.
