The fallout from the unprecedented self-debating by Mansourian, head of SMART, on the Marin Independent Journal webcast show, IJ Forums, continues to radiate through the pages of the county of record for one the lesser half of the SMART district.
Two writers from you guessed it Novato wrote into the Marin Independent Journal about SMART G.M.'s refusal to debate Mike Arnold, instead self-debating onscreen, with only Spotswood to offer questions to keep debate rolling.
One writer calls for Mansourian to resign for his refusal to debate Mike Arnold, noted SMART critic and foe.
Another writer says that SMART is a farce, and the oversight body (SMART board) lacks knowledge and foresight.
Of course the other side of the coin is that you generate foresight by paying for expensive studies. And you get knowledge by hiring staff to inform you. But the writers make a good point that Mansourian didn't know anything about trains when he was hired. He maintained county roads and bridges.
