The last ditch attempt by Taxpayers Against Giveaways to put the Columbia Town Center redevelopment legislation before the voters this fall died with barely a whimper Friday. According to this story by Larry Carson in The Sun, “Judge Richard S. Bernhardt granted a county motion to dismiss the case, on grounds that the group Taxpayers Against Giveaways never submitted a required memorandum explaining its legal arguments despite months of notice.”
“Kevin M. Joyce, the attorney representing the group, conceded, "There's no excuse," but said confusion caused the gaffe.”
Another fine showing from what has now become known as the gang who can’t shoot straight.
