Ha! Thank the gods, the sh*t toll bill is dead! And by a stunning 8-1 vote no less, which is both fantastic turnout and a fantastic repudiation of this idiotic legislation.

And now, the left will raise taxes, which was trying to be avoided

Suffice it to say, there is no reason why this bill should have come to a vote.
Councilors, I would urge you to table your bills if they have zero chance of passage.

Well, thing is, the Chancellor is the only one who can table a bill in Lincoln

I guess I will notify you whenever tabling is needed instead of pushing for a final vote that is soundly rejected

I understand your point, however it would not be my inclination to initiate the process to revoke a bill from the floor without the express consent of the bill's sponsor. I know that is not mandated by the Standing Orders, but I would not wish to set a bad precedent.

I do think that it is far better to take bills like this to a final vote, simple so the Council has the opportunity to fully and wholeheartedly reject legislation like this.
