if you would please, send an email to your district councilor and tell them about this development and ask them when neighborhoods are going to get some rights back.

If you have a neighborhood advocacy group in your area, let them know about this too.  We need their support at the meetings.

I'm not sure if your reply is directed toward me in particular or toward interested Tulsans in general.

That said, my councilor is Maria Barnes.  I've read that she began her public service as a neighborhood leader in the Kendall-Whittier area.  I've left several voicemails for her and sent her emails about the subject of sidewalks.  She has never replied to me.  You might be able to get her on your side on this issue -- honestly, I don't know.

Councilor Barnes has some opponents in the contest for the District 4 seat.  Another idea is to try to get some of them on your side if you can.  It sounds as though you are up for a fight, but be prepared to be villainized and slaughtered.

You might try to get more people behind your cause, such as the residents of the Yorktown neighborhood near 16th & Victor, the people who live in the vicinity of 71st & Harvard, etc.

Well, Bumgarner is a truly classless thug. He said he wanted to punch one of the homeowners in the mouth at a meeting with them last night.  

I thought all of these types of people with their oil baron like attitudes were dead...stuff of movies like 'There Will Be Blood'

You're gonna have to provide some proof to back up that statement.

they are going to retract some of their changes to make it a minor amendment, so we will have to appeal it to the City Council.

It sounds like you are winning in getting some concessions.
