councilman abraham is correct and honest in his statements. if there is no formal request to table, or the supervisor wasn't prepared enough to send out a simple delay request>>>than that's his fault.
while i do believe having a business background can be to one's advantage when attempting to serve the public, i agree with this quote by Mark Poloncarz:
"Government is not a business, and it should not be run like one. A business is concerned with maximizing profits to benefit a select few — its owners or shareholders. However, a government is concerned with the welfare of those it represents, all of its citizens, not just taxpayers. We as a government represent the youngest child that may need protection from an abusive adult or the oldest adult that may not be able to turn anywhere else."
