Dear Source:
I must take exception to the recent comments by the Yacht Haven developers about Legislative Legal Counsel Yvonne Tharpes. While I disagree with some of her opinions, I must say that the comments suggesting incompetence can be nothing farther from the truth.
Atty. Tharpes has published several law review articles (quite a distinction for ANY attorney), and has served on national law advisory bodies like the Uniform Law Commissioners. I don't know Ms. Tharpes, but I will never question her legal competence. She has demonstrated that she is an excellent legal scholar.
