Snevilicious at the Argus Leader did a story today about how the city is still refusing to release the settlement (Because Loophole David Fiddle-Faddle has pulled another one from his rear end). But the open records peeps seem to disagree;
(Argus attorney) Arneson said a case could be made that any Sioux Falls taxpayer is eligible to view the settlement without violating the confidentiality clause because they are members of the city and, arguably, a party in the settlement.
I like attorney Arneson’s argument. Something we have been saying all along, we paid for the building, we own it, we have a right to know what is in that settlement.
But I will also say, there are many ways to skin a cat.
While the Argus and other media outlets have taken the avenue of asking the city for the settlement head on and deciphering Fiddle’s  Loop Hole code, DaCola has been sharpening our skinning knife.
While DaCola has been kind of quiet as of late about this issue, we are taking a different approach when it comes to the iron clad settlement.
Stay tuned.
