Apparently someone thinks mighty highly of their meager effort...



So Messrs McNamara and McCauley withdraw their lawsuit over the length of the Greater Bay lease - not a big deal since the City exited the deal in December. What took so long? And I have never seen someone celebrate and issue a press release over the fact that the Judge didn't dismiss their lawsuit outright. I guess they were so surprised that the motion to dismiss on the part of the City wasn't granted that they have to make it seem like a Supreme Court victory. Such fertile and creative minds have these two.

By the way, a lease term of 19 years, 11 months and 28 days is less than 20 years. The City also made changes to the agreement after the lawsuit was filed that addresses their attempt to find a shred of minutiae to occupy our Court system and spend $40,000 to $50,000 of taxpayer dollars for the City to defend their lawsuit.

Perhaps a better use of that wasted money would be the funding of lifeguards at the beach on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
