Regarding the Friday article, “Cost of dispute falls on Monroe”:
Something is missing from this story because the way I read it was:
A woman is suing the city for her legal bills over a long, drawn-out lawsuit over a few e-mails that happened four years ago that we couldn’t care less about, for what? Payment of her legal bills! So now the city is on the hook for $190,000 in legal bills. Who wins here besides the attorneys? No one!
Now let’s look at the long list of losers:
The city employees who are looking at additional furlough days.
Their families.
The kids who use the parks for their sports and recreation.
The commuters stuck in “The Monroe Crawl” every day.
The city residences looking at extra taxes on their utility bills.
The list is endless.
Good job, Meredith Mechling. Next time don’t do us any favors.
