Green Party in Debasement

-----------------
From the Mpls Issues Forum:

-----------------------

What's up with the Green Party?

Isn't CM Dean Zimmerman a Green?

If so, what's up with his introducing, pushing and voting for making an
exemption to the city’s shoreline height ordinance and Shoreland Overlay
District last Friday (I believe) to allow a building far taller than normally
allowed by law on East Calhoun Parkway, over the objections of the vast
majority of neighbors, concerned citizens and even a resolution by the Park
Board -- where he formerly served as a commissioner?

It looks like a complete sell-out to developers who have but one value in
mind: more profit.

It just doesn't add up.

Incidentally, someone just let me know that the Green Party has lost its major party status.
