Power realignments in city boards roil planning votes

The two largest clashes involve Dr. George Marteson on the Planning and Zoning board and Ted Hornish on the Redevelopment agency. Marteson, listed as independent, faces opposition from both parties and may be replaced by a Democrat. The GOP favored Louis Baas, but Democratic boss Jack Healy backed his neighbor, leaving Healy and Fourth District boss Al Rotiman as the main holdouts against Hornish. Reappointments proceed amid postponement of a zoning vote over an industrial zone near Gallucci gravel pit, with Alderman Ulric Amena potentially tipping the outcome. Democrats rejected Will Mahoney for the Parking authority, selecting Third District Republican chairman Russell Schell instead.
