Combusean, your email reply from the Mayor "we'll look into this... good idea" may actually be a good email. ie, it might have actually been the mayor responding to you. I've sent an email to the mayor before and got a long-winded fluff reponse email that was sent by his secretary or someone else who checks/responds to his email. The fact that you got a one line reply might actually mean it was the mayor himself.
