While term limits are good, question K would only allow someone to hold office in baltimore city government for 2 terms. Not any specific seat for two terms, but only hold any combination of offices for a total or 2 terms. This would mean that any candidate who is term-limited in one office would not be allowed to run for another office. That is not how term limits generally workand would totally jack up our local government even more.

The other significant issue, I believe, with Question K is that the terms all expire simultaneously. So all of the offices affected would be vacated every 8 years. I can't think of any comparable governing body that just disappears all at once like that.
