Oh, wow. Thank you for posting this. I have lived here eight years and am only now eligible to vote. Municipal government always seemed really complicated. I now see that’s because it is, in fact, really complicated.

It has gone through periods of being better and worse. There used to be different levels of voting power, depending whether you owned property or not. Crazy stuff. Then it was simpler for a long time and then they spawned the borough system and made it complicated again.
Congratulations on becoming eligible to vote, Daniel!
