i have a hard enough mess from the thought i got a message from florian schmidt last night telling me he wouldn't be able to make it mainly because of family reasons and maybe another opportunity to meet can be arranged. i'm ready and willing to say i'd be happy to have a chance to talk lawyer on schmidt as a representative of the people sent by his political party so basically he's just a prisoner of his own circumstance of his party and his district. i wouldn't want to be in his shoes but if i were my do things differently. this is the district. feel the end schmidt's district. i don't know where things stand. mr groner is meeting the urban planning committee next week. so maybe that will be a good time. i mean. it was once an activist who attended demonstrations against big business and its representatives people like luna. today he uses his role in city government to steer development in an equitable direction but he can't build the needed living space himself the district has acquired a few buildings but its budget is small so he needs invest his this is a gas station by the can
