Is there any reason to think that this is more than the trigger for this attention . I think it has raised visibility of these issues in a way that im hoping something good can come out of it so we will be better off in terms of how we manage these sites moving forward.

Theres cooperation but there may be taxpayers in santa clara going wait a minute, did that guy have a point . Were not getting anything back and is that something you guys have resolved already ahead of time . Yes. So we have worked with the city of santa clara going all the way back to the bid in terms of how Public Safety officials would be compensated for their efforts and their time city services, working with the city of San Francisco as well. The mayor of glendale said he doesnt even want the super bowl back. But today he actually clarified that saying if somehow this region could come together and chip in money and perhaps even more cops, that somehow they could make it work in the future, you can bet organizers in the bay area are paying attention to that and although theyre not elaborating, seems like they have some sort of plan to do that.
