This is the city: Los Angeles, California. I work here. I'm an ex-mayor. Los Angeles is a magnet for people from all over the world. Some of them run for public office. Inevitably some of them stray from the golden rule and rule for those that have the gold. That's when I go to work. My name is Yorty. I'm a dead pol.
It's a TV day for the Mayor Wednesday. First he will appear on Channel 34 for his weekly "A Su Lado" segment, then over to KCAL 9 for his 9:15 p.m. "Ask the Mayor'' segment. No awards shows scheduled that we are aware of.

So Antonio is going to hike trash fees to get more cops. He's going to get slammed by council people like Zine, Smith because their districts hate taxes. If he does this I want to know where else the money will be spent? He's using cops as an excuse to help him get out of the deficit.
Villarigosa to Seek Hike in Trash Fee...LA Times
That's Mayor Beaneraigosa for you. Dee Dee Dee!!!
"Today we say to America: We've come here to work: We clean your toilets."
-Antonio Villaraigosa
Great, Tony can you come over and clean mine?
John & Ken KFI 3-7 are hilarious. You have to check out their web site. They are asking listeners to send Antonio "toliet brushes" and even have a place to buy for only $1.29. They will mail to city hall.

And people wonder why I voted Hahn
I also wonder, Why we haven't heard anything from the Black community such as leaders like Maxine Waters or Jessie Jackson?
Because they conflict with the other liberals. Maxine wants to close the borders up to protect her peoples jobs.
This would also put conflict with the Mayor since they are suppose to be such strong allies.
The house of cards called the Villaraigosa administration is about to fall.
Can I send him a used toilet brush?
Archie,
Archie the almighty poster. What happened to Ludlow? Is he singing like a canary?
Give him time, And Maya Angelou would be preaching as to know "Why the caged bird sings"
What happened to EAA? did they just give up and wimp out? They are strong when they protest but then they go under. Come out Come out, Antonio will be in Estrada Courts Boyle Heights tomorrow.

Isn't this supposed structural deficit based on one of many AV's decisions to BORROW money to pay for 372 officers. Of course this was done when he was running for Mayor.
Gee only $80 M the first two years. How much is it costing to build that Elephant Sancutary? $40M, Well there's half your money right there without raising a single penny.
How much is LA contributing to that Subsidized Convention Center Hotel that Philip Anschultz is now leading? I know the city has to spend money to get money but giving developers the keys to the city just because they helped you elected is not the way to go. Oh yes, $200+ Million dollars.
Hmmmmm, If I dake half of that that leaves $100 M plus the $40 M I saved and eureka! I have $140M without raising a single tax.
Where's those DWP increases going? What's this the city gets 10.5% of the DWP bill I would think .5% would go towards hiring more officers, wouldn't it?
Gee, Maybe I should take Laura Chick-N-Shit's job.
Archie,
Laura Tight Ass will audit Police Department.
Grapevine Rumor
Laura Chick--Shit should audit the MAYOR'S office first. All of a sudden she thinks she's doing her job going after everyone else. Did Antonio ask her to audit LAPD??? Laura Chick-N-Shit doesn't think on her own. Remember she signed off on $4 million for Fleishman Hillard not knowing what the hell she was signing. All hell will break lose if that bitch goes after LAPD.
Dunno sounds political and deceptive of Laura "dike" Chick to audit LAPD.
What scheme do Villaraigosa and Laura have this time around?
Video News Blog #19. Public Employee Pensions Busting Budgets (3 min) www.fulldisclosure.net/flash/VideoBlogs/VideoBlog19.php L.A. City Controller Laura Chick describes the extent of the City's liability for LAPD pensions, saying that costs for the retired police officers is as much as it is for the working officers who are out on the street. And, she added this is a factor limiting the city's ability to hire more officers.
Fur flies at city auditor debate
By David Rogers, Staff writer
Doud worked in the city auditor's office between 1993 and 1996, and is currently a public finance controller of the Water Replenishment District of Southern California. She said she would perform more audits to find money for the city, and compared herself to Laura Chick, Los Angeles' city controller (an equivalent position to Long Beach's city auditor), who has been credited for having a zeal for finding money through audits. (Burroughs responded that Chick has visited his department to see what it was doing.)

Dowie had cultivated close ties to a number of local politicians, including City Controller Laura Chick, who began questioning the DWP contract with Fleishman-Hillard in summer 2002.
Chick was central to bringing pay-to-play allegations to Cooley's attention, but now says she has doubts that the investigations will pan out.
Carrick said he believes the pay-to-play investigations were the "catalyst" for Antonio Villaraigosa to challenge Hahn - who vehemently denied any wrongdoing and said any criminal action should be punished - because of his perception that the mayor had been made vulnerable.
He said the lives of several people swept up in the investigation have been "made miserable" by unproven allegations. Some of those individuals include Edwards, Ted Stein, former head of the Airports Commission, and former DWP Commissioner Leland Wong.
"It's a very unfair system."

Laura fruit of the looms audits everyone else but her crime partner Villaraigosa & staff.
Los Angeles Fire Department officials -- stung by two audits...
The article, a front-page, Los Angeles Times piece that ran on March 11, detailed the most publicized of the two recently conducted audits, the one commissioned by City Controller Laura Chick. The other was ordered by the Los Angeles City Council's Personnel Committee. Black Councilman Herbert Wesson, who representing the city's 10th District, sits on that committee.
MIA on DWPIn search of wise council on the Owens Valley mess

Ton LaBonge's office in City Hall features a life-size cardboard cutout of water baron William Mulholland, the founding father of the Department of Water and Power... Yet from Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa to Controller Laura Chick to a dozen council offices visited last week, few will discuss the project, looming water-rate hikes or other fiscal problems at the DWP — such as the pension being underfunded by $400 million, overtime costs of $51 million per year and $20 million in annual employee credit-card purchases that go without scrutiny...
City Controller Laura Chick called Tuesday for a halt in the building of a $100-million dispatch center for the Los Angeles Fire Department, saying that plenty of space may be available in two new police dispatch centers.
Although $7 million has been spent on design and foundation work for the center, Chick told Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa that one of her private auditors has raised questions about the project.

Large LAPD Bonuses At Odds With City Officials
Speaking with Chick at a budget event last week, Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa said costs boomed because "people haven't been monitoring these bonuses."
"It's always hard to take something away, but during negotiations everything's on the table," Chick said.

She was on her knees sucking on Antonio's political cock!

And you folks wonder why I call her a MANipulative woman who's a Can't understand normal thinking
