[Vision2020] Councilperson

[Joe Campbell]

Apparently replacing 'councilperson' "with something less redundant" is harder than any of us thought. Are there any "City Council Members" who are not members? If so, that's the job I want!

"Councilperson" I am curious why someone would tac "person" on the end of a title. Are there members of the council that are not persons? Why not "City Council Member"?  We don't say fireperson or policeperson. Placing person on the end of a title just sounds like an ugly attack on the English language.
