Nothing you said is wrong. But, why do we have term limits at all then? Why did the city voters enact/approve term limits twice? The point of term limits to to ensure that politicians can't snowball their power (as some argue the Spano's have) so that they are unbeatable.

For example, the head of the Yonkers Dem Party is the Commissioner of the DPW, who was appointed by, and reports to the mayor. The DPW also organized its employees to attend the rules committee meeting to support this term limits change (who appeared to be the only ones present who supported it).

While that's all legal, it creates unfair hurdles for any opponents. Term limits remove those hurdles.
