Thank you Erik.

Even if I did have that type of power or influence (which I do not have and
will not even if I am elected trustee), I would not ram something through in
direct opposition to the community's wishes. That would only alienate many
people and possibly fragment the whole project. However, I will continue to
argue my position when I see it is needed. If I am overruled, then so be it,
I'll just make sure my opposition is on record.
