Our recommendation for Dallas City Council District 14
Incumbent David Blewett faces Paul Ridley and Elizabeth Viney.
Two years ago, when Philip Kingston lost his seat to represent District 14 on the Dallas City Council, he was replaced by David Blewett, a person who knew far less than Kingston did about how City Hall worked and about what the priorities of the district’s residents were, but who enjoyed a critical advantage. He didn’t have Kingston’s divisive approach.
Blewett stumbled as a council member initially, but he has since developed into a capable representative who has balanced difficult questions between growth and preservation in a district where residents are hardly shy about voicing their views.

The Accommodation, which
D Magazine called “the most dangerous book in Dallas.” If you don’t know about the book, you can read about it here. Short version: Jim Schutze wrote it, Price owns the rights, and it has been out of print for a long time. The book comes out in September. If you pre-order it through Deep Vellum, yours will be a signed copy.
All of which I tell you by way of setup for our discussion about who should read the hypothetical audio version of the book. Former council member Philip Kingston replied to Evans’ tweet saying that he wants to do the reading and that he has support from Jim. I attempted to confirm this by texting Jim. My laziness didn’t get me very far, because all Jim did was text back a joke about how Kingston was also standing in for him for the naked pictures.

They remember a different time in Dallas, when, for about two decades, “residents had a string of thoughtful, sincere and righteously angry advocates who served on their City Council.”
Former Mayor Laura Miller stopped over a dozen coal plants from being built during the administration of Gov. Rick Perry and implemented the first green procurement ordinance in the region. Former City Council member Angela Hunt hunted down waste, corruption and “staff shenanigans.”
Then, there were former City Council members Scott Griggs, Philip Kingston and Mark Clayton who helped defeat the Trinity Toll Road and gas drilling prospects in Dallas.
“Sometimes they fought their council opponents directly. Sometimes they made sure documents that were never supposed to see the light of day got their own spotlight,” the post read. “You knew these partisans would find a way to advance the cause. Because that cause was why they wanted to serve.”
