The Zuma Report for Thursday June 7, 2007

Will use this thread to post updates throughout the day. A lot of info flying in. I'm busier than Global-Knowledge opposition research. I'm very intrigued by Glassell Park NC's Paula Bagasao/Bagaso/Bagasso. A former Bill Clinton appointee as Head of IT. YIKES! She took that knowledge and opened "Global-Knowledge". (Sounds like a guerilla warfare, international opposition research network -- alot like ZD! No wonder I'm intrigued.)

***** UPDATE *****
ED REYES' LINCOLN HEIGHTS: Oh no...The SHADY LH Neighborhood Council story, posted last night, cause some new folks in the area to contact the ZAP Bat Phone this moring to pile on some of the REALSEST going on in the "Threat to Public Safety" Councilmember's district. I think what Lincoln Heights needs is an new restuarant and alcohol bar, with 150 video games, inside -- open to minors. And I think the best way to keep those video games busy, is to set the bar/video arcade AS CLOSE TO SCHOOLS AS POSSIBLE...AS A MATTER OF FACT HOW ABOUT PLACING IT DIRECTLY ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE SCHOOL (and very, very close to other schools, as well) and make sure the school door's practically flow right into the bar enterance. And don't mix business with pleasue ED! And don't spend City funds on condoms. That's not allowed on your expense report, even if you are using them for people you are doing City business with. AND STOP HAVING THE SAME GUY FROM SAN DIEGO DO ALL OF YOUR "Business Improvement District" (BID) reports at $50,000 a pop. All he's doing is handing in the same pre-printed form. [MORE ON REYES' LINCOLN HTS THIS AFTERNOON. THE PUEBLOS ARE PISSED...AND THEY DISCOVERED ZD ON MAYOR SAM...(You lose, Carl Miller.)
________________________________________________________________

NOTE FROM ZUMA DOGG: Although the pueblos are coming down hard on Bradley, Paula and the Glassell Park/Silverlake/Eagle Rock "In Cahoots Crew", for their rancid mix of Jan Perry/Jack Weiss behavior -- the story is really about loopholes. They are only a talented bunch, of organized folks, with no ethics who are using the system as allowed. This is about DONE/BONC/CITYCOUNCIL/VILLARAIGOSA deciding whether they want to close up those loopholes. So touche Glassell Cahoots Crew...we're obviously not rolling over on this one, and it is only your pomposity that unraveled all this...but let's rember the goal: REFORM!

Shady, fraudulent condos going up in MARINA DEL REY (Maxell & Lincoln area) ALLEGED SCHEME EXPOSED BY PROJECT WORKER!

How do I know? A construction worker birdie in the area told me. (Gotta love MTA!) Look how shady fraud, waste and abuse presents itself, everywhere I turn. No wonder I'm also so cranky.

And yes, it is these workers who told me condos were going up along Venice Boardwalk/Coffee Bean and Tea Leaves were going in. (They were right!)

It is these crews that told ZD those small Venice condos were $1.5 million each. They were right! And now...

THE ENTIRE F*ING CITY HAS A PROBLEM IF THIS IS TRUE...CAUSE THIS WITNESS TESTIFIES THAT THIS CONDO-TRIFECT WAS APPROVED AS LOW-INCOME APARTMENT RENTALS (to cheap out on the materials like copper pipes, cause they got state and city entitlement money) -- BUT THEY ARE ALREADY SIGN, SEALED AND DELIVERED AS LUXURY CONDOS AS HIGH AS $15,000 A MONTH -- THAT'S ONLY AFFORDABLE TO RICH PEOPLE FLYING IN FROM ASIA TO BUY THE PROPERTY!!! It's called a "flip, y'all"...and it's an international housing scheme using city and state money and cahootsing it up with the mayor and city council...ON THE MUTHERPHUGHING REALEST...And again...this way too freindly over-talker HAD to let me know way too much about himself, until he said, he's in "construction" (as a worker) -- and I told him I am intersted in that topic, and the rest is about to be history:

HEY CM ROSENDAHL, MAYOR VILLARAIGOSA & LOS ANGELES CITY COUNCIL: You gotta love the pueblos. You might beat us, but you didn't fool us. Where does the racketeering end? If you can't beat 'em, ZAP 'em!

Hey Bradley, Paula, Mark and the Cahootsville Crew...here's another community activist opposition research group you can join:

MTA bus ride highlights: (Marina Del Rey Development - see also Playa Vista)

HIS WORDS: Phase 2 "Water Terrace" Swinerton $250 Million Budget.

Built as apartments with plumbing building codes less restrictive than condos.

Built with intentions to sell in 3 years to new owners.

Only 1 low income housing unit, an efficiency at $1600 per month.

Top Floor Penthouse $15,000 per month. (Shown to Shaq before completed.)

Built on old salvage yard or garbage dump property. (Methane/toxic hazard?)

Building permits were granted with low income housing promised but not intended.

Owners of General Contractor Swinerton was awarded a bonus for finishing on schedule. (He thinks it was $1 Million?)

Swinerton loss the contract for Phase 3 due to complications on Phase 2 and possible use of funds from Phase 3 on phase 2 and/or other issues! (In other words, spent Phase 3 money during phase 2, and ran out.)

Phase 3 Webb Corp.: $150 Million Budget

Quoting a construction worker, gimme a break. You really think a developer is going to tell him what is going on? His job is to pound nails.

Ever hear of the rumor mill? It is jerks like you who have nothing to do that cause these false rumors to get started. Do your due diligence and show us the facts.

Give us the address, the owner, the developer, the agency that funded the alleged low income housing, etc.

Don't waste our time with what some other grunt tells you.

You are a caricature of yourself.

Remember, low, very low and very, very low income are catagories of income which allow a developer to ask and receive, Federal, State, County and City funds for development. Most developers can get away with 5%, 10% or 15% of the units developed for low income. However, if you build 50 units; only 1,to 5 are for low income. Low income is not $1,150 per month per unit.

Low to very, very low income is $10,000 to $13,000 per year nd up to $24,000 for a family. How can someone make $1,300 a month and pay $1,150 for rent.

Either change the amount given to developers or insist that a full %25 to 50% of the units must be for low income.

What you have posted is totally insufficient to cause one to believe that there is fraud involved.

The address and true owner are not even listed; you are still a fool.

8:25am,

Bill Rosendahl and LA City Council know EXACTLY where they are! And everyone knows EXACTLY what they are doing. 8:25am, you just don't get it, and you never will get it. The story isn't whether I spelled someones name right, or the address of the building where the corruption is occuring.

And everytime we let THEM know, that WE know...it makes it that much tougher to pull the same corruption next time...

If ZD bumps into one construction worker, and he blabs all of this...don't worry about the specific address, it's happening elsewhere.

YOU ARE SUCH AN INFERIOR MINDED LOSER. MY SELF=ESTEEM IS FINNALY STARTING TO GO UP...CAUSE TIME AND TIME AGAIN...EVERYTHING I PRESENT HERE, FROM THE COMMUNTIY GOES OVER YOU HEAD.

The corrupiants who pull this sh*t ain't foolin' anyone but you, loser.

Read Deming, Ries, Trout, Erickson, Grindler, Bandler, Robbins...and listen to Springsteen "Badlands" till you figure it all out!

So OK, because I didn't provide the specific addreess (maxella & lincon) -- and the person who told me wasn't wearing nice enough clothes; so i guess it isn't happening. It NEVER happens in the City. Nothing to see here...

Your self esteem has only one way to go.

How can you face yourself in the mirror every day?

You spin around like a top with no direction, eagerly gloming onto any little tidbit of information that might reveal something corrupt, and make the gigantic leap to the fact that there is fraud, theft and corruption everywhere. You are an unguided missile.

There isn't; there is just people doing business under the rules.

All you do is waste everyone's time trying to figure out what the hell you arfe talking about or deciphering your off key rants.

Better you should go back to hawking tee shirts on the boardwalk and begging for coffee and gas money, Your acumen of the development business has absolutely no depth or breadth,a dn you are wrong almost all the time.

Go get a life.

If reading this blog is so distasteful stop reading it. If you can prove he is wrong do so.
