It is way past due for the residents of this community to stand up for their neighbors who are under attack by the corrupt political machine that has taken over this city. Look back at newspaper interviews of Mrs. Ferre. She has said she wants to develop more than her father did. It is a sad state of affairs when the home owners go into Planning and Council meetings and are totally ignored and lied to by the Council members and the City manager. Tom Schwab has been in his position for nearly twenty years. Some Council members almost as long. It is time for recalls. The Redevelopment Agency and City treasury belong to the people, it is not for the enrichment of Tom Schwab and the Councils friends. It is time for a full accounting. The Council and staff management should be challenged to release their tax records. A separate monthly record should be kept of RDA funds and OUR general fund,not co-mingled so no one can know what they are doing. Change must come before change is all that's left in the treasury. --Posted by Anonymous
GrandPaTerrace Recommends >>>How to proceed:
You go to the Department of Elections, and obtain the papers to file for a Recall, gather sufficient signatures and notice of intent to recall, the folks at the Department of Elections are required to assist you with the process if you ask. You will have to gather the signatures and so forth.
The Govenator has apparently called for a special election so if you hurry, the recall could take place on that ballot. Replace the entire council with persons who company with the promise to remove the City Manager as their first action.
Yes, it will cost three months salary payable on his dispatch. But, that is a small price to pay to regain our rights, and freedoms from his dictatorship.
The second act of the council should be to request the Grand jury or the District attorney's Office audit the past council members and city management and the dealings with developers and the City Redevelopment Agency.
All but the basic law enforcement and operational activities shall be suspended, including travel, out of the city. The city needs to stop and rid itself of the pestilence currently suffocating the citizens and small business in the city.

Anonymous's Sees No Recourse but FedsThe D.A. is not going to do anything to investigate any politician in this county. If he were he'd have his hands full with Hansburger and his crew. Vanella and the Public Integrity Unit of the D.A.s office and his unit are a joke. He should investigate his boss. A FEDERAL GRAND JURY can be requested by any citizen that has or feels he has evidence of a crime being committed in violation of Federal Law. Citizens may petition the U.S. Attorney to conduct an investigation. I wish them luck. This county has got to be the most corrupt county in Ca. The only true recourse is a total recall of the council and have the State take over until new elections can be held. --Posted by Anonymous
