The Bee and KJ present two different versions of the same event. HOWEVER, Johnson's memo says of the leak that "their lack of courage and need for secrecy erases any legitimacy of their act." Does anonymity always illegitimize a claim? It doesn't change the truth of what actually happened which should have a proper investigation so the facts can be set straight. Politicians should come to terms with the fact that constituents are tired of seeing corruption and back-door deals, developers putting people's lives at risk so they can make a few extra bucks. When constituents think of accountability WE think that the government needs to be accountable for making decisions with integrity in the first place - sometimes that starts on a computer in the permit department.

In fairness I will revise to reflect the other possibility.

I haven't been able to find any information about the cost either.

The press were super easy to work - especially Sacramento Press. We estimate the attendance at 800 people for the night (some people came early and left prior to LA Riots) and are working on finalizing the head count. Stay tuned for more details on http://vhcle.wordpress.com and http://www.myspace.com/vhclelaunch and - Definitely thinking about our next event but the details are SUPER TOP SECRET ; ) Jennifer Wade 2009-07-27T19:13:06Z Jennifer Wade comment-10511 2009-07-10T01:03:06Z 2009-07-10T01:03:06Z Live Manikins rocked it later at Marilyns Jennifer Wade 2009-07-10T01:03:06Z Jennifer Wade comment-6797 2009-04-28T02:29:32Z 2009-04-28T02:29:32Z I can't find a story or photos about the actual concert. Was anyone actually at the event? I saw lots of fancy cars and limos in midtown that night and it was weird.

There has recently been discussion of a place for legal encampments (http://www.sacbee.com/opinion/story/1569553.html). Obviously, the current policy of "pick up and move" is not a solution or even a good band-aid. Thanks for the story Mark. Would be interested in seeing more articles on this issue.
