What remains murky, however, is what the practical effect will be on the project, if Freccero sticks with his tentative ruling. “I had lots of questions before, and I still have them,” Freccero said. “I’m trying to understand what happens next.” Over $30 million dollars in tax-exempt bonds to finance the project have already been sold.

Read MoreSacramento Bee: With a 7.40 Rating, Marin Would be the 7th Happiest Nation in the World, Between the Netherlands and Canada, if it Were its Own Country
“We find that happiness is aligned with specific quality of life ratings. In particular, jobs, leisure, and housing,” Baldassare said, according to the report. “In our polling, we also looked at personal finance.
