And how much exactly did the City of Gilroy pay for...
When Mayor Don Gage and Councilman Peter Arellano cozily vote together and the two lawyers on the Council, Peter Leroe-Muñoz and Perry Woodward, are on the opposite side of the vote and steadfast about it, something interesting is up. What’s up is that the Council, at long, long last wants a bottom line, no-B.S. answer on what the city spends each year with its high-falutin San Jose-based legal firm, Berliner-Cohen. What should be a simple answer to get is cloaked, seemingly, in smoky back room political gobbledygook, so … Dear City Administrator Tom Haglund: How much did the City of Gilroy pay the law firm of Berliner-Cohen last year? Please include any and all payments for any and all legal work. Sincerely, The taxpaying residents of this fine town.
