and that reason was fear of a debilitating lawsuit. you don't actually need the law on your side these days, just money to drag someone to court and threaten them with bankruptcy.

in the U S of A, justice is for those that can afford it; laws don't seem to have much to do with it anymore.

Cities get sued all the time and have a lawyer on retainer. I am sure fear of an extremely unlikely lawsuit played no part in their decision at all.

GOLFnSUN failed to protect the taxpayers against massive lawsuit through his inaction. This demonstrates the failed policies and bumbling nature that has so marked GOLFnSUN's tenure. GOLFnSUN cost taxpayers millions in legal fees.

Don't let him destroy our town.
