Nice job, BART Management: According to figures provided to us under a state Public Records Act request, BART spent an estimated $1.2 million on outside consultants brought in to help management with the negotiations. About a third of the consulting fees - $430,997 - went to Veolia Transportation, the firm headed by BARTs lead negotiator, Thomas Hock. He wasnt around for the final deal - Veolias contract lapsed before it was all over, and BART didnt renew once it became clear hed somehow missed the infamous provision that would have granted workers six weeks a year of paid family leave.
