Narrow Political Focus?

Ha!  That is the claim of another local blogger, something she thinks I possess, I guess.  It was she that called out two of her most highly favored Commissioners, but this of course was not being "political."  From one of her latest entries:

When the forensic study report came in and it was professionally determined that the building was structurally sound, the vote came in to restore on a 4 to 1. The past Commission made this decision. It was with the hope of obtaining an historical designation. Costs estimates that were given showed that it would be cheaper to build with certain elements still standing such as the fondation.


First of all, there was nothing "forensic" about the structural engineering report.  No crimes were committed, at least not yet, in the structural condition of our beloved Casino building.  All the report said is that the building didn't need to be "red tagged" - but there were still structural issues that needed to be addressed. If the blogger could provide the meeting minutes of when this item was decided upon, it would be extremely appreciated by me and many of my loyal readers.  Likewise, if she could produce the "forensic" cost estimates that show it would be "cheaper to build with certain elements still standing such as the fondation(SIC)", that would be most welcome as well.

Lest she becomes known as someone who does not adequately report realities.
