You’re not so dumb

DID YOU know that the 12-year campaign by Melanie Billig and her small group of supporters to prevent the City of Carmel from selling Flanders Mansion is being waged for the benefit of the public? It’s right there in the court documents. In papers filed with California’s Sixth Appellate District, where the latest battle in the costly Flanders Mansion War is being fought, Billig and her attorney, Susan Brandt-Hawley, repeatedly cite “long-standing public benefit,” “great public benefit” and “benefit to the people of Carmel” as reasons why the courts should prevent the sale of the old place. In one particularly moving section, they claim that “the citizens of Carmel deserve the protection of this fine representative of their historic heritage.” We’re sure a tear comes to your eye as you read those heartfelt words. Thank God the people of Carmel-by-the-Sea have Billig and her friends to rescue them from the heartless and historic-building-hating city council. Before this editorial is through, we trust somebody, will start commissioning a special Public Service Medal for the members of the Flanders Foundation. But wait a second. Wasn’t there a public vote on selling Flanders Mansion just 18 months ago? Yes, there was. And didn’t the citizenry overwhelmingly vote to get rid of the old place? As a matter of fact, they did. And wasn’t the vote scheduled because Billig and her supporters demanded it? triviality of the coastal commission fighting Yes, it was. a property owner over an acre of grass that’s So if the people voted for something that is obviously and incontrovertibly Letters been there for nearly a quarter of a century, I suggest this is a state agency that we can counter to their interests, how can this be explained? to the Editor afford to do without.
