The record includes a number of disputed material facts which could establish Councilman Svorinich’s role in both the interference with and retaliation against the Fentises. In particular, the “no mental tenants” note on a letter from Svorinich’s office to ACOF, evidence that the inspection was instigated by a complaint made by a woman close to Svori-nich’s office, and evidence that suggests that the Slumhouse Task Force was acting at the behest of Councilman Svorinich viewed in the light most favorable to the Fentises, suggest that there are genuine issues of material fact which make summary judgment on the retaliation claim — which would necessarily involve actions beyond normal legislative functions— for Councilman Svorinich inappropriate.
