First, I think the Board needs to avoid serial private meetings of board members that tend to violate the open meeting laws. Second, Mr. Worden is Mr. Chino’s longtime private attorney and friend, that alone is not a conflict of interest. If we are to go down that road, we would need to ask every board member who they consult and associate with and I assure you that they would never want to do that.

Really Mr. Chino, you need to have an open forum to learn the ins and outs of the relationship between CDFA and fairs? It sounded like Ms. Desmond wanted to discuss general items, not Del Mar Fair business. Isn’t it your responsibility to learn about the fairgrounds so you can do your job correctly? It’s one thing to have transparency, but quite another to go on and on and on about something that does not pertain to business at hand.

Now I understand why Chino always looks like he is reading his reports/proposals for the first time at every board meeting. He obviously has them written for him by his attorney friend. I have been attending the board meetings and I was finding it hard to believe that a man that is NOT an attorney, could be using so much lawyer talk in his written communications but sound like the rest of us when having give an immediate response. I always felt that the timing of the new board members were suspect after the whole Kehoe fiasco. Maybe the Coast News should investigate the relationship between Chino, Worden, Kehoe and the City of Del Mar. Oh, and let’s not forget the Peregrime (sp?) group as well.
