A "Good Neighbor" Is Suing The City

Information provided to me this evening stated that a certain entity, claiming to be a "good neighbor" in Rancho Palos Verdes has filed a lawsuit against the city of Rancho Palos Verdes.

My, that didn't take long after the yard signs started being displayed.

The suit is NOT about the yard signs but apparently about the language chosen by our city objection to passage of Proposition P, The Marymount Plan's attempt to have dorms approved by voters and other negative things that are not part of the approved Marymount College Facilities Expansion Project.

So now the certain entity will cost taxpayer monies because the city has to defend itself, but the "good neighbor" doesn't seem to care.

I thought I read that The Marymount Plan will be done with "no taxpayer expense". Well, that statement has not been proven to be misleading, as of today, hasn't it?

Marymount College representatives suing the city of Rancho Palos Verdes is exactly what many of us predicted it would do.

What we didn't figure is how long before the election they would take that step.

I don't think suing a city representing residents who one wishes Yes votes on Proposition P should sit well with the electorate. Might this be another piece of evidence of desperation on the part of Marymount's representatives and supporters.

So Marymount heads to court first. I can imagine and find almost certain that it won't be the last lawsuit filed by Marymount's representatives and/or supporters, dealing with The Marymount Plan.

Perhaps part of my very recent donation at www.saverpv.com should be set aside to go towards a growing legal fund so that no matter what happens on November 2, 2010, the opposition side of the Prop P arguments will be able to go forward either to block implementation of The Marymount Plan or help defend against lawsuits brought in the future by Marymount's representatives and/or supporters, when Prop P goes down in a crushing defeat.

And another thing. If you have been noticing the commercials on T.V. about Marymount and all the good works they are doing?

Where in that commercial is there any "good neighbor" works illustrating what Marymount and its students are doing in and for Rancho Palos Verdes?

I would think that being a "good neighbor" means that one would volunteer services in the actual community one was in, along with helping other communities, which is also honorable.

So let us all note that on Wednesday, August 25, 2010 Marymount College, its students, representatives and supporters have completely and voluntarily given up their status and claim to being "good neighbors", not that they really were in the first place.

If Marymount attempts to use "good neighbor" in any future advertisement, statement, position, claim, proclamation, or doctrine, let it be known to all that they are not and have voluntarily decided to not be "good neighbors" to anyone in Rancho Palos Verdes.
