Beware !!
The proposal is a repeal and replace with greater never ending tax!!
Keeping mind this is to deal with the end of the ten year tax on 2027….we have to ask about the money already spent.
Roughly 600 million per year is not pennies and who has benefited.??
Sadly the current in charge collection of elected and their appointees are those whose lives have been enriched along with the Campaign contributors, largely at the expense of the shrinking middle class.
Miguel Santana was big on saying small condo living is the future and the idea of single family homes should be considered a past concept….until he moved into a gated single family home community..
Accountability for Los Angeles Housing has been a challenge with corruption and high paid executives considering tax dollars their play money…
Never forget the Los Angeles Housing Authority Scandal and the findings of the Wendy Gruel Audit…..some seem to count on our forgetfulness.
How embarrassing! A leper never changes his spots! Some people believe it’s just a lovers spat and the DA won’t file charges. The DA should be sure to look at his past restraining orders and prior violent behaviors so he is not negligent in protecting men & women in this ABUSERS case. When offenders get away with violent acts they only become more and more brazen. His history of violence tells it all. He hates women & men he cannot control! Oop!
This just gets juicier and juicier (sips tea/pinky finger up). This man who is allegedly holding Brandon’s home hostage with a restraining order just had his City of Compton job rescinded in the days after Brandon posted bail. This mystery man from another state was allegedly offered a job in the Treasurer’s (Brandon) office as a Cashier. The plan was come to Compton, stay with Brandon and get a job in Brandon’s office.
