IF the Council and Mayor KNEW that the NDA was not binding (which I do not believe - based on the WAPO article I think that what WMATA told Jinks is different from what was in the email to the project engineer, and that all the elected based their behavior on what they heard from Jinks) then it suggests that both Silberberg and Wilson are equally culpable, ergo this has no bearing on the race for Mayor.  At least the primary, as I presume if the GOP nominates anyone for November, that person will not be an incumbent member of the Council. [/quote]

Both Silberberg and Wilson obviously assumed blindly, with no checking, that what Jinks told them was true: NDA was in force and binding.  They always assume that what Jinks tells them is true.  And sometimes it is.

But they both should have known better.  And the one thing they should be able to agree on is, no more Jinks.

+1 and I still say that it's atrocious that there is no documentation of anyone from the city pushing back on WMATA in writing about the need for the change to the southern entrance to be kept from the public.

Even if WMATA was talking out both sides of their mouths and out their butts (which let's face it, it's WMATA, totally possible/probable), someone with the city should have pushed back and said "why can't we tell anyone about this major change?"  But they didn't, because they didn't care or didn't want to deal with the fallout.  [/quote]
