He takes his promises seriously and thus far has advanced his plans forward quite far.

Some things like getting the airport tunnel, completely changing the budget process (now zero-based reviews), eliminating the park and ride fee, posting his meetings and expenses, video archives of Council, securing the funding for a new central library and 4 major rec centers, initiating the airport bus and facilitating food trucks happen quickly. But, other major promises like "fixing the planning and development system" and meaningfully cutting red tape across the City are long term, very comprehensive and complex processes that will take years to really see the benefit - but are happening.
Yes, but what else other than all of that.
