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.
The reply highlighted is not correct. I have copied the statment from the Disrtict 5 meeting minutes. "Ms. Tutt advised that District 5 is the owner of the property and would be the “victim” in this case." I also think that comments from this site had very little in the decision to offer a settlement by the District Supervisors. The "perps" have been punished to the tune of $25,000+. Restitution has been made. It has been a very expensive lesson for someone.
