Stop whatever you are doing and pat yourself on the back. Yes, you. You are leading the community. You are shaping the present and the future. Not the politicians or the power brokers. You.
OK, maybe not you personally. For all I know, you have not left the house in this century. By “you,”I mean informed, community-committed citizens. Power to the people.
Look at the major events of this summer: The birthing of a people-friendly downtown waterfront. The annual explosion of the Garden Walk. The revitalizing West Side. None of them were part of a grand political plan or a big-subsidy project. Indeed, all of those “magic bullets” have misfired.
