Hooray for the Gazette, who have endorsed my two favorites for City Council, John Britton and Carl Henn (they also endorsed Piotr Gajewski and Theodric Anderson, and Susan Hoffman for Mayor). Take that, whoever stole our yard signs! This is what they said:

"Our top choice is John Britton, who has served on the city Planning Commission for five years and was part of the committee that authored the proposed citywide zoning revisions now before the council. A private practice attorney who seems to have a command of land-use and environment issues, we believe he will serve the city well as it decides how Rockville will look for the next generation. He is one of the most impressive candidates Rockville has seen in several terms.

Carl Henn also earns our endorsement for his strong commitment to keeping Rockville a community that continues to serve its residents well. Mr. Henn never sways from his commitment to the environment - most intensely on the need to become less dependent on oil - but at the heart of that ardor is his knowledge of the issues important to the city. He is a well-intentioned, hard-working man who will bring civility back to the council."

Bring on those elections! (And don't forget to come out tomorrow night, Saturday, October 27 at 7pm to UUCR to listen and ask questions if you haven't made up your mind yet).
