After reading the numerous comments on both sides regarding the attack on Sharon Barovsky’s possible past connection to Christi Hogin and the appropriateness of her involvement in a present appointment as city attorney for Malibu, I can’t help notice that no one seems to be addressing the more important issues: Why, indeed, was Ms. Hogin fired from this position two years ago? And what merits the doubling of her past salary if she is appointed again?
If there was any impropriety involving Sharon Barovsky, hopefully it will come to light and be dealt with appropriately. But I believe the citizens of Malibu should be far more concerned with Christi Hogin’s qualifications for the position than who does or does not endorse her.
What we should have access to read about is the details of her firing and the determination of the salary being offered our city attorney now. Am I alone?
