Quotable: A collection of comments from Salt Lake City's 33rd mayor
2 comments | Read story
A mayor's primary mission is not to crusade for gay rights, against global warming, or for an end to war. A mayor's primary mission is to RUN HIS CITY, and this is where Rocky Anderson fell down.
He failed to get the Rio Grande Depot redeveloped as a transit hub, he failed to clean up Pioneer Park, and he sabotaged a proposition that would have replaced three antiquated public safety facilities within the city limits.
Anderson may get a letter grade of "A" in activism, but he barely earned a "D" in running a city.
