Interesting story from the Examiner today. It seems the Wetlands LLC has filed suit against the city of Aberdeen to try and force them to speed up the process with regards to a new annexation proposal they submitted after the first one was shot down in a referendum vote.

But what really caught my attention was a tidbit saying that an attorney for the Wetlands has crossed over and joined the resident’s lawsuit designed to stop the new proposal.

In June, Wetlands attorney Curtis Coon fought successfully to be included as a co-defendant in the suit.

Now that his client is a party in the residents’ lawsuit, Coon is
asking the court to make the city move forward with the annexation
petition. City ordinances say petitions should be considered by a
planning committee within 60 days of the application, but Coon says the
Wetlands petition has been sitting idle since Sept. 29, 2006."

Can someone explain what is going on? Is the Wetlands LLC and the resident’s group working together now?
