Zuma Dogg City Hall Podcast 1: Condo-conversion vacancy law (from 1981) being ignored by Mayor & Council


Click here to get your own player.



Testing, testing; 1, 2, 3...It's "ZD's City Hall Podcast 1" regarding condo-conversion/vacancy rates, followed by a freestyle rap by ZD & Hood Kidz (from Las Vegas). City Council may be on recess Tues. Dec. 5th, but ZD will not have his first amendment speeches squelched, y'all...Remember that guy with the weird hairdo in Flock of Seagulls? That's how long the law that the Mayor & City Council is currently ignoring has been in effect, y'all...and that definitley doesn't look good for those involved come endorsement season.

Zuma answer this question if you know. The LA Slimes reports that Padilla didn't allow residents to speak out on an agenda item at council. I thought if a resident fills out a public comment card that its called "special" and they are allowed to speak. I see it all the time on Chan. 35. They say Padilla didn't allow them to speak cause the developer was in council and he's a donor to Padilla's campaign. By law was this against the rules?

that was probably a 'special presentation' that wouldn't require 'public comment'. Or, if it did, they will say only ten minutes is required, and they had more people than that. but, i think it was a special presentation.

Zuma it was on the council agenda not a presentation. So if there were people who wanted to speak on the issue Padilla didn't let them. Isn't that against the rules?

They only have to allow ten minutes of public comment (five, two minute speakers). So they obviously had more speakers than that. They could have chose to use "discretion" to allow more speakers, but of COURSE they wouldn't do that.
