Update: Bortz abstained on Towne Properties vote
Councilman Chris Bortz abstained on an ordinance last week to grant city financing for a Towne Properties condominium development in the East End, according to amended council minutes. Bortz is general counsel for the family-owned development company.
Bortz was originally recorded as a "yes" vote, though the agenda noted his need to abstain and Bortz said he was silent. At today's regular session of City Council, Mayor Mark Mallory moved to amend the minutes of last week's meeting to reflect Bortz's abstention.

Post a Comment*Bortz will neeed to abstain from several more votes seeing as he was appointed to chair economic development by Mallory even though his family's business will often go before the city.
Mallory really should've thought this through. But I'm beginning to think he's not much of a thinker at all.
Daddy's role in 3CDC looks like a conflict of interest.
