Good morning!

We start today with 221 signatures on our formal objection.

While many in Ward 1 and beyond spent the night in the dark, we have found critical evidence. A formal motion was submitted to Council on February 12th—exactly one month ago—demanding answers on the state of these specific pylons.

The City was warned. They had 30 days to act. Instead, they spent that time budgeting for luxury leather chairs and R500k laptops.

This isn't just an infrastructure failure; it is a documented failure of leadership. I have shared this evidence with the media and will be following up with the Electricity Committee today.

Let's push for 250 by lunch! Please share this link with one person today.
