In reply to Julio. District 1 is no more, or less isolated than any other District. That is just your messsed up way of thinking. Everywhere will be District out eventually. You been learn to accept it.

Fool-io is appropriate. Antioch is behind in the way it was run? We do have some problems but nothing that districting will solve. It will only exacerbate isolating District 1.

In reply to Julio. That's nonsense. If people want to waste gas, that is their issue. District's are giving every area, equal representation. Antioch was just behind, in the way the city was ran.

What I meant is now the city is definitely split into 2 Antioch’s which we tried to avoid. District 1 is one Antioch and districts two, three and four are now another Antioch. I had a person tell me yesterday he would be forgetting all about anything below the free way including Lowes and that area. He is willing to drive east to the other Lowe’s.

This district thing is not a good thing for this city. Too bad.

Julio,

You don’t make any sense when you say ” There will be District 1, and the REAL Antioch” District 4 is the same as 1. It doesn’t split an area, like 2 and 3.

I predict Tony sells his home in district 2 and moves into district one. One thing he has said over and over was he disliked the DIVIDE Hiway 4 did to Antioch. But he voted to perpetuate just that divide.

District 1 is going to see this is not what they wished for. They have succeeded in becoming Antioch 1, an orphan while the rest of us will be the real city of Antioch. They would have much better results with 2 districts rather than one and even last night were told this would not result in what they had been wishing for.

One of the most awful council meetings I have watched and maybe my last.
