Hmmm,
Do we think there was a cause of action against the city's original OAC Environmental Impact Study?
Is there any reason to believe this would happen?
Lets review. This same city approved Manhole Builder's environmental Impact Statement.
Yes, we should pay the attorney fees of the citizen who was courageous enough to file the law suite for the behalf of the citizens of our city, and surrounding communities.
Why, well let's begin with the fact that WE don't demand better service and accountability for the people hired by our city. This included the people in the Planning Department, and the City Manager who were all active in cooking up this OAC DEAL on a no bid development plan with a hand picked developer. Let's not mention all the other negatives which have in time come to light with regards to the original OAC proposal.
Yes, we should pay the fees, and we should be able to have all the evidence of the complaint in the public view. Those at fault for creating this obligation should be either jailed, or fired. The cost should come from Mr. Schwab's Pay as he is in charge of City Hall, and he selected the people involved in this situation.
