Its definitely interesting to see what the impact of having the wards more linear like that. Would that shift more power to at large members since they don't necessarily have to worry about the same disparate interests that someone tied to a ward would? Would this possibly lead to more diverse (not just race but also intelectually) or would it serve to water down the council as a whole because CM's would really have to stake out the most central position possible. And would it be anymore equitable or could we see CM's just focusing on the western halfs of their districts more?
