"It makes one
wonder why a public official made certain decisions, especially ones that
benefited certain interests, when just days, months or years later they take a
lucrative job lobbying for the same interests."
CSU settles open-meeting lawsuit; agrees to release tapes
By John Tomasic, The Colorado Independent,
July 22, 2009
The CSU Board of Governors today agreed to settle the open-meeting lawsuit that followed from the board’s selection in May of its own vice chairman, Joe Blake, as the university’s new standalone chancellor.
The university admits no wrongdoing in the settlement but it has agreed to turn over sections of an audiotape of the closed-door session in which the board deliberated on Blake’s candidacy and decided to effectively install him in the position. The university will also pay attorneys’ fees incurred by the three media outlets that brought the suit, The Colorado Independent, The Fort Collins Coloradoan and the Pueblo Chieftain.
