But all that really means that is that any legal recourse will have to come from the voters of Glendale themselves and not the Goldwater Institute...
Judge Dean Fink rejected Goldwater's argument- suing to invalidate the Glendale City Council's decision to approve the sale of the Phoenix Coyotes to Greg Jamison and paying him US$324-million over 20 years (US$90-million in the first four years). Goldwater maintained the Council didn't have the necessary votes and that the city failed to put an arena management contract up for bid- claiming it was an emergency status that would supersede any public referendum.
And that's where we are now...
Registered voters in Glendale are trying to come up with just over 1,800 signatures by early July to put the City Council decision to referendum in November.
That would gum up any sale certainly...
"We are disappointed in today's decision but we are glad that Glendale taxpayers have taken matters into their own hands by working to refer the arena management deal to the ballot," Goldwater's Darcy Olsen said in a statement...
So, the HQ continues to see what is left... and see who isn't saying anything...
Are you listening Quebec City...???
Of course, you are...
