The Conversation: Strong-mayor debate is a chance to examine other possibilities - Sacramento Opinion - Sacramento Editorial Sacramento Bee:

"What would be your argument for changing Sacramento's form of city government? To comment on this issue, please see our forum.

In any city, it's a good thing to periodically ask fundamental questions and re-examine old ways of doing things."
