Sounds a lot like what @will has proposed re voice credits
The fair way to delay is to delay all, objectively. Force governance overhaul (and incentivize participation from the very proposers who want to see their projects move forward - but also the broader community). Maybe someone out there in the CityDAO ecosystem (or another DAO even) has a solution to governance that ensures the voice of the community is reflected in the direction of funds flow from CityDAO’s treasury better than what we are currently seeing.
