At the latest City Council meeting last Wednesday, a half dozen tenacious provincials buttressed the secretive, avaricious and mendacious East Box entrepreneurs looking to exploit resources for robber-baron takings using Machiavellian wiles. The testosterone was thick in the room as these white male bidness folks crossed arms and made malevolent faces while attorney Dehlia Seim defended the self-named gun-toting gals from the East Box.
To quote dear Gertrude Stein, “There is no there there.” That sums up the futile arguments of the Gals that they had a “done deal” to get the council to cede its sidewalk despite advice from the City Clerk and City Attorney and the recent opinion by the highest attorney in the state that the giveaway is illegal.
Council member Ed Bolstad moved to rescind the illegal granting of the permanent easement last December, but was persuaded by Clerk Mike Roth to withdraw the motion until the next council meeting in hopes that the Gals would accept a “compromise” solution.
