Bankruptcy Judge Michael McManus could not have been much clearer in his ruling over the weekend that he has the power to void remaining contracts between two employee unions and the city of Vallejo.History in the making.
And yet, McManus held his fire, suggesting in no uncertain terms that the two unions should work quickly to strike a bargain with city negotiators while they still can.
The alternative is that he will likely give void the contracts, and usher Vallejo into an era that could lead to another mass exodus of employees and further rancor at City Hall.
