I don't know about everywhere else, but the club I belong to pays for everything. None of their repeaters are on gov property. All wiring is independent of anything else in the building. For what its worth, not everyone is trying to burn things up in the shared rack space/building. California sux, for the lack of better words. Also, ARRL should have been all over from the start. Then, maybe the truth would have come out in the beginning. But, then again ARRL is supposed be a HAM advocacy organization. But, I guess they are not as long as folks continue to keep the memberships up, they do however have a good support for licensing and education. I am sure that there will be some backlash to my post and the PTB will totally disagree with my opinion but I don't care.
