If the Mayor of Coralville were to now take it upon himself to proceed

with
demolition (there are publicly owned buildings on the site) -- especially

if
he sent a wrecking company out in the middle of a Sunday night -- I do
believe he would be detained and observed.


So you believe we live in a country where (except in Chicago) a public
official who initiates a renovation project is thereby subject to arrest and
involuntary hospitalization, unless the police think the project was
sufficiently popular?

But maybe that's just an Iowa thing -- we expect rational behavior from

our
elected officials.
