Simply on face value: FAIL!
My guess it was written on the back of a cocktail napkin since it's acronym is SOT. I don't see how this changes the acrimony, it simply adds three more antagonists to the mayor to the council and enjoins the mayor to the council. Sort of like throwing a black prisoner into a cell of 12 Aryan Brothers instead of nine. Councilor Westcott said this makes the mayor even stronger and doesn't solve the acrimony. He said that's a personality clash issue anyhow, not a problem with the charter. I tend to agree.
There's nothing about the proposal I like other than elections being non-partisan, even still I don't see that affecting our races very much. D or R doesn't seem to really make much of a difference when it comes to voting for mayor or council.
Get those people in the same room too often and I wonder how long before Dewey starts asking what that 'burning smell' is. Whose cell phone will go up in flames first?
