Half Moon Bay — Once More With Feeling

For the latest lengthy, detailed description of the Half Moon Bay controversy See David P. Hamilton, Treading Water, California Lawyer, May 2008, at p. 25.

Update. The news from the California Legislature is that a State Assembly committee has approved the legislation facilitating the Half Moon Bay settlement, by deleting provisions in California law that stand in the way of implementation of that settlement under which the owner would be permitted to build 128 homes on the subject property, and failing that receive $18 million in damages from the city.
