I still think if we would have put the siding issue out in the open on The Denty and had a transparent settlement we would have gotten the issue fixed like in Minnesota;
The $1.1 billion stadium in downtown Minneapolis was completed more than a year ago, but workers are still fixing panels in about half a dozen spots.
About 10 percent of zinc panels covering the outside of the stadium are being repaired. The work is expected to wrap up next month.
The Minnesota Sports Facilities Authority says the repairs are covered under warranty, and there is no cost to taxpayers.
Notice due to a ‘warranty’ Mortenson is fixing the panels at no cost. Makes you wonder what kind of warranty we had with the EC and if the siding could have been fixed? Also wondering when the SD Supreme Court will rule on the siding case, seems to be dragging out for a long time now.
It’s amazing how the city declines disclosure and gets away with it. The Sunshine Law must not apply. Once state court addresses this, there could be some contempt of court if subpoenas aren’t answered.
It has been a long time, hasn’t it? The oral arguments before the SDSSC were in January. It should be any day, hopefully. But sometimes it takes up to nine months, which would put us into October, however….
I wonder how they are going to side on the siding? 😉
I watched the hearing. I got the feeling from a couple of the justices that were very talkative during the hearing, that state law pretty much sucks, and it was up to the state legislature to fix it, not them.
And you need to keep in mind, that the SDSSC is not big on judicial activism or public policy decisions. So, if they think the law is lacking, that could work to the City’s advantage…
