Do you support State Sen. Trudy Wade's bill to change the size and makeup of the Greensboro City Council?
Senate Bill 36 would shrink the size of the council, change the role and powers of the mayor, lengthen council terms, and reduce the number of council members who are elected at-large. http://bit.ly/1D1Girv
