Pedego Irvine said:I'm really frustrated by the time and money we continue to waste (my opinion) on what should otherwise be an amazing project. Numerous decisions (right, wrong or indifferent) and circumstances - some completely out of our control - led us to the position we're in today. However, at this point, I'd love for all of us - including our city leaders - to bust off the rear-view mirror and focus on what's ahead of us, not behind.
My opinion relative to this is NOT based on politics, rather, it's based on what I believe is the right thing for our city.

I'm not suggesting that people shouldn't be held responsible for their actions. I guess what I am saying is that the state of the Great Park (Great Sporting Complex, is what I like to refer to it as) is dynamic, certainly well beyond decisions and actions of one person.
I haven't been following too closely the last two years, but what has this two-year audit and additional $$$ given us? Is this time and money well spent? I don't mean to sound sarcastic; please know that I'm not. This is an honest question.
iacrenter said:It is a fair question but premature since they just released the report. The county prosecutor and city lawyers are probably still reviewing the document.
Joe Irvine said:Wow, could the views be any more drastically different? Hopefully, at some point, the two sides will check their emotion and egos at the door and then - perhaps - we'll be able to shift from "destructive" to "productive".

Coming soon: Irvine voters and City Council approve an audit of the audit of the audit.
"We don't have time to build parks. Our focus is on building conspiracy, dividing our city/City Council and pointing fingers", claims Mayor Pro Tem, Jeff Lalloway.
"Build a park? Why, that's what Five Points is for. And the additional 4600 homes will really boost sales in my day job", says Councilwoman and Residential real estate agent, Christina Shea.
"We must go have lot this for it and fine community", boasts Irvine Mayor, Stephen Choi.
Sorry, just having a little fun. I like all these guys on a personal level, I'm just worn-out from all the political bologna saturating our city. And yes, I find Stephen Choi to be just about the worst public speaker ever. lol

What do you expect? Most of the talented people with great presentation skills went to the private sector.
