You heard it here first. The star tribune endorses a return to 13 bosses. RIP strong mayor governance. www.startribune.com/minneapolis-...
One, Frey could turn the tables on the council progressives. Have the council find a suitable new police chief and the votes for confirmation. Or the mayor could bring in a facilitator for an airing of grievances and a new beginning.

22 And it shall come to pass, while my glory passeth by, that I will put thee in a clift of the rock, and will cover thee with my hand while I pass by:
23 And I will take away mine hand, and thou shalt see my back parts: but my face shall not be
seen.
