3. District 5 is the ONLY "injured party" and through thier offer has chosen not to pursue legal action if reimburssed.
4. On August 3rd a group know as "The Friends of Lake Minoa" repaid District 5 a sum in excess of $25,000 (See the Daily Sun article) This paymnet satifies the requirements of the offer from the District 5 Board of Supervisors.
5. I did not see in the upcoming agenda for the August meeting for District 5 that this topic was going to be discusssed.
I do not know where the $40,000 number came from. I think it was something that was thrown out here and struck. To my knowledge there has not been an official publication of the total cost.
What I want to know is "why" those who continue to press this issue want "the pound of flesh to be extracted"? Will they sleep better at night? Is it going to make a difference in their lives? Are they going to feel better about themselves becasue someone elses lives have been damaged?
If the District 5 Supervisors, the ONLY injured party, are satisifed, then the issue should die. If you do not live is District 5, you do not have a dog in this hunt.
The next District 5 meeting is this coming Friday at 8:00 am at the Lake Minoa Rec Center. If you are a poster on this site against the settlement, show up to the meeting and express your displeasure, or shut up! MHO....

#3. district 5 was NOT the only injured party, since many districts were slated to pay restoration.
The perps have gone unpunished. And I do believe that if public pressure had not been applied, this would have been swept under the rug. Do we have to go through this all over again sometime in the future when some arrogant jerks decide to suit their own purposes, or will someone be brought to justice now as a deterrent to others? Money means nothing to some people.
