Levinson: Definitive proof that Fullerton is NOT run for the benefit of its people.

Guest post by our friend Fullerton Parks-and-Rec Commissioner and former Council candidate Barry Levinson:

Attached is a copy of the spreadsheet I handed out during Agenda Item No. 7 – Brea Dam Recreation Area at the March 14 Parks and Rec Commission meeting.  It provides proof that the Management Agreement deal we entered into with American Golf in December 2010 will cost the taxpayers between…

4 MILLION to 5 MILLION dollars in lost net revenue (think net income) over 20 years, over the lease contract already in place.

This raises serious questions about how the Park and Recreation Department has been managed and calls into question our city leadership all the way up to the City Manager. It is now time for the City to answer questions honestly and with much specificity. Please click this link and review the spreadsheet carefully.

Note that there was no discussion about this handout except for my own description and summary of it. With the exception of Commissioner Silva, who reluctantly spoke out of order and after the proceedings were over and his vote was cast, and myself, all other Commissioners present voted to Receive and File my document and the attached presentation of the department. Yes, we have major problems with our City Government.

Denial, Denial, then Receive and File.

Ms. Gretchen Cox (above) appointed by Mayor Jennifer Fitzgerald, attempted to have this Received and Filed without any discussion from the department, the public or any members of the commission.

WHERE HAVE ALL THE GOOD OFFICIALS GONE?
ARE THEY TOO BUSY PATTING THEMSELVES ON THE BACK TO DO THEIR JOBS?
ARE THEY TOO BUSY AND SELF-ABSORBED HANDING OUT AWARDS, PROCLAMATIONS, TOUTING LOVE FULLERTON DAY OR FPD OPEN HOUSE DAY?
ARE THEY TOO CORRUPT TO DO THEIR JOBS?
ARE THEY TOO COWARDLY TO DO THEIR JOBS?
ARE THEY TOO ABSORBED WITH THEIR OWN SELF-INTEREST TO DO THEIR JOBS?
DO THEY JUST NOT GIVE A DARN ABOUT THE PEOPLE THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO REPRESENT AND FOR WHOM THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO HAVE A FIDUCIARY RESPONSIBILITY?
WHERE ARE ALL THE BRAVE CITIZENS WHOSE ANCESTORS SHED BLOOD AND TEARS FOR THIS COUNTRY?
WHY DO SO MANY CITIZENS IGNORE THE PROBLEMS CREATED AND IGNORED BY OUR GOVERNMENT TODAY?
WAKE UP FULLERTON!
WAKE UP CALIFORNIA!
WAKE UP AMERICA!
