The controller King and former city manager Rhambo put together a plan to get back on financial track the state liked.. They were forced out by the Mayor without a plan in place.. The Mayor didn’t want to follow the plan now we are here with the blame game..
GCC REPORT FACTS:
1) State Controller’s Office sends GCC Report notices to municipalities in JANUARY for the previous
calendar year.
2) GCC Reporting and Filing Instructions – Cities Reporting and Publication Information
Government Code (GC) 53891 requires cities, counties and special districts to submit an annual
Government Compensation in California (GCC) report to the State Controller’s Office (SCO).
Pursuant to GC 53891, the GCC report for the previous calendar year is due no later than April 30th.
3) The GCC Report is generated by Payroll
4) Now that the FACTS have been presented WHO’S TELLING THE TRUTH!!!!!
Thank you for bringing to readers attention the IMPORTANCE of public access to information about HOW OUR TAX DOLLARS are spent !!!
The city payroll records should be available at the click of a button…..very few even small businesses much less the city use pen and paper with adding machines that require a hand crank.
A list of required reports should be made and posted so that EVERYONE in the accounting office, payroll department and executive staff can verify public records are available to the PEOPLE each are paid to SERVE, and are submitted to other agencies as required.

Once again everyone is blaming the mayor. However, the city had a controller and two deputy controllers that were responsible for this report. They were all still here in January. There is absolutely no reason this report should not have been completed on time.

If the report was due in January well before Covid 19 what’s the problem ????????♂️.Again Aja Brown informed the community that the city was in compliance with the state.
Stop having these meaningless press conference against the sheriff department, City of Compton holds no weight on /in anything.
Compton community looks like a third word
Country; the only business the city leaders are available to bring into the city is food& retail establishment which often fails.
Compton leadership lacks vision and business acumen.
Surrounding communities are thriving not Compton. When you have a dictator such as Aja/Trump it only creates division.
It time to clean house, they all must go!
Right, acceot your wrong. Me is getting ready to file a claim against the city because of the ” executioners” who raped a 39 month old baby named David at 1623 w 38th pl, 90062 on 3-11-2020. It’s time for the executioners toveat their own shit.
raped a baby?
When former controller Rafela King made statements about the ongoing between the council and controller “stating things we not right within the controllers off” Damon Brown (also known as Grady from the Redd Foxx show) denounced her alllege misdeeds.
The truth is not within the city hall.
My hope is that state will come in and take over this dysfunctional city.
Trust me God is sick of all of you with your greed, lying, disrepectful, and your selfness!
Aja Brown came here on a lie your grandmother was not bruailty murder or rape, your whole existence is one mayor
lie.
You guys are one big JOKE!
Reads like bullshit and passing the buck. Lets see. MAR TO july.
1. You fired one deputy city controller
2. Put the city controller on leave
3. Didnt respect or give an F about the 2nd deputy so he left
4. Council appointed the city controller. NOT the City HIRED the City Controller. You need to be clear here.
5. The City, not Council promoted Jocelyn Logan to deputy city controller. NOT APPOINT.
6. What positions in the Controller dept were reduced? The front office clerks? Details please and let the bullshit shine.
7. Since this is Compton, u ALWAYS, blame prior management as f’king up. U just got to!!. Then you can say you going to clean up the shit and make it look shiny. “Lack of understanding …”, just say the nigga didn’t know what the fuck he was doing. Blame a person who isn’t here to defend himself. Straight outta compton.
8. Covid is responsible. Why is compton so f’cked up? We were moving on up, but the Covid shit got started and pulled us back.
9. BUT the report was due in January. JANUARY!!! Nigga City Attorney. We aint that stupid!!!
This is just another example of the leadership being inept; it’s never the leadership fault.
Aja continuously schedule press conference under false pretenses, Sheriff Villenuava explain to (Ms. know it all) the Los Angeles County writes the standard contract, he advise the council to schedule a meeting with the Oversight Committee.
In the last eight years under Aja Brown leadership is a total failure, she is not a team player ;she is jus like Donald Trump.
Yes she speaks well with no substance, just a child playing grown up.
Go back to your sandbox and take Michelle Chambers, Craig Cornwell and Damon Brown.
God is not please!
