waiting for Godot, or Bardot
I think it is reasonable to wait until the end of the year for the new Pool Director to see what she can really do. A re-evaluation at that point would be done then. Rome wasnt built in a day, etc. No such leeway can I find for City officials that have squandered our tax monies repeatedly and continuously for the past 3 1/2 years, at least. They have had a chance to show what THEY can do and its been a series of financial and managerial disasters followed by fiascos that are followed by catastrophies. If they arent managing the CC so horribly that Santana receives the building wrapped in a bow, they are making two-wall enclosures at $600 a square foot, bathrooms at over $400 a square foot, and new gyms that, if their pattern holds true, will cost us MILLIONS more than usual and customary construction costs SHOULD cost. We have NO reason to believe the gym project will be ANY different than the others because it is the SAME cast of characters involved and its obvious they havent learned A THING over the years. IF they have learned anything its how to waste MORE of our tax dollars ie the bathrooms, which are MONTHS behind schedule and HUNDREDS of THOUSANDS of our tax dollars over the usual and customary costs for that project, with MORE cost overruns and change orders on the way. They have raised their usual level of incompetence and ineptitude, which is considerable in the first place, to a WHOLE NEW LEVEL!!! And THAT is giving them the benefit of the doubt that there isnt anything more nefarious or corrupt going on.
