They should either be told that you cannot put down the city if you are in the county and vice versa, or you can and you will be treated equally with everybody else. You can put it down but we, people like politicians, are the ones who are dealing with this. It is very hard to explain to constituents that this is there. You can say it but it is not really ever going to happen, and I think we need to bring clarity to this issue. I would prefer that there was a kind of all-county view taken on this.
