The Mayor and Governor both appoint a large continent on the MTA Board, which woted on this issue. Pretty much a foregone conclusion (i.e. if they want to keep their jobs, they do the "right thing").

Cablevision Sues M.T.A. Over Railyards Decision

In a continuation of the bitter fight over rights to develop the West Side railyards, Madison Square Garden filed a lawsuit today against the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, accusing it of violating "open and fair" legal requirements when it decided last week to sell development rights to the Jets.

Madison Square Garden is owned by Cablevision Systems Corporation, whose $400 million offer was rejected by the transit board in favor of a lower bid by the Jets.

I think Marlon Brando was there for awhile and was replaced by Star Jones. Dunno who is there now!
