BMSV: Case Continues / Injuction Denied

In the Court of:

THE HONORABLE DONALD ALVAREZ PRESIDING
THE COURT FINDS:
CITIZENS FOR RESPONSIBLE AND OPEN GOVERNMEN'S MOTION RE PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION IS DENIED.

The hearing regarding the Environmental Quality Issues will continue and be heard in April. However the Injunction being Denied allows for Construction to Proceed.

This is kind of like saying, "There is sufficent reason for a hearing, but not sufficient reason to stop you putting your money into going forward with construction, with the pending risk of being stopped at some future time."

The City and CFBH have no reason to be conservative with their capital investment, it is money the tax payers have to pay for. If the project is stopped by the court, the City and CFBH will just make the tax payers pay for their folly. They don't have their personal funds tied to the outcome.
