Sacramento Bee: Voters won't get their say this year on whether Sacramento's mayor should have expanded powers. But Mayor Kevin Johnson and his allies should not give up trying to modernize City Hall.
They'll have to wait, however, until the new City Council – with three new members – takes office in November to renew their push, pointing toward a ballot measure in 2011 or 2012.
It's frustratingly, disappointingly clear that the current council has absolutely no interest in change, and is unwilling even to let voters decide, though many Sacramentans want that chance.
