The city needs to be a part of the solution, not a part of the problem. They need to focus less on lower user fees, especially in their enterprise division (golf), and less on keeping tax increases to 'below inflation', and focus more on making sure all of their employees are treated equally.
It's a fair point, but city employees will make up only a very small portion of those struggling to afford housing. Yes, they absolutely should do their part, but let's not expect that to solve the problem overall.
