Not too many people have ever seen this view looking south from the 2nd level of the Casino Building. This is where our lifeguards had an office. Over 70% of our lifeguards were laid off but prior to that, the City decided to make its case that the building was unsafe. Thus, they kicked the lifeguards out and spent $45,000 shoring up a building that they plan on demolishing in March. Well, why not? It’s not money out of their pocket, right?
The lifeguards don’t have to worry any longer about an office and those who are left, pretty soon you won’t have to worry about a building either, if Commissioner Vespo gets his way. He has promised to demolish the Casino by the end of March 2009.
The Greater Bay/Lake Worth contract was signed November 26, 2006 AND financing on the project was due 90 days after or on February 26, 2007. The lawsuit filed by McCauley/McNamara was filed in June 2007.
The Mayor as well as Commissioner Vespo keep on saying that it is the law suit holding up the beach project. This is a great excuse to blame two citizens on something that the majority on the Commission (Clemens, Vespo and Lowe) clearly allowed to happen—NON-PERFORMANCE BY GREATER BAY. The citizens have nothing whatsoever to do with Greater Bay’s silence on its lack of performance.
The Mayor and Commissioners Lowe and Vespo have said that they plan on destroying this building at the end of March. They are determined to do this. You can trust them when they say they will raze this Casino
