Bob Myers: Boulder City Council wasting money on eminent domain case

No fooling.

Really? Really! Schoolground bullies they are. What did Jim Croce say…

You don’t tug on Superman’s cape
You don’t spit int othe wind
You don’t pull the mask off that old Lone Ranger
And you don’t mess around with Jim

Apparently Barry Barnow did all these things at once to Boulder City Council so in retribution the City of Boulder is being the bully and attempting to use the power of eminent domain to force Barry to sell his land.

The land sits just outside the airport and contains a longtime “through the fence” agreement — a relatively common type of legal access agreement — that allows the property owner to taxi an aircraft directly to the airport runway.

Here is my prediction:

  1. The City will lose legally and financially
  2. Barry Barnow will win the legal battle but lose the financial battle
  3. The law firm of Duncan, Ostrander & Dingess will be the big winner

You can’t make this stuff up.
