Since this whole thing went down in a matter of weeks from start to finish my question is how did the planning department respond so quickly? Typically simple building permits are logged in and held for months before anyone processes them, complaints from the public equally take months to even get investigated, yet here the planning department seems to have fast tracked the violations against a legitimate business? The city charter specifically prohibits the mayor and the supervisors from interferring in the operations of departments and that would include seeking special favors like asking Mr. Badiner to put Quickly on the top of their enforcement investigation and caseload list, yet clearly that is what happened. Looks like a question for Dan Noyes who is the only one who has the investigative skills and will power to hold this administration accountable for anything.</p>
