Memo to CD 14 Chief of Staff Ana Cubas, "Big difference between $60,000 and $544,683 in CLARTS Fund Account

Now the video of her rambling presentation is posted above for all to see.  For those who may be interested in a career of public service, Cubas performance is noteworthy for its subjective dodging of the questions by the LA 32 Board. 
But at the end point of her opening presentation (about 25 minutes in), Cubas states that there was only $60,000 currently in the CLARTS Fund balance, which surprise former CD 14 City Councilman Nick Pacheco, who briefly speaks. But the truth unknown to the LA 32 Board, Pacheco and not likely Cubas, is noted below in the memo.. 

More after the bloggin leap.
In the weeks since, we have learned that besides using the CLARTS Fund for what it was created for, Councilman Huizar secretly moved $1,045,000 of the fund into his salary account. The amount above as of the date of the memo was the balance unallocated for.

Four months later, the big question here is what is the status of the balance. Has any of it been spent on community amenities? Councilman Huizar's challenger Rudy Martinez stated that he would use CLARTS to maintain public services as we noted in an earlier post..

And especially for the residents of Hillside Village, who were front and center in protesting cut backs in fire services, they might want to question Councilman Huizar why he was not pro-active in allocating any of the above balance to mitigate the brownouts at station 16? Thus, helping to pervent another tragic event that Luis Gonzalez emotionally stated at City Hall.

Paramedics, police or staffers pay, voters in CD 14 will decide on March 8.

Your thoughts..............

If you'd have ever paid attention during a neighborhood council meeting, you'd know there's big difference between what a City department (like Clerk or DONE), considers to be "uncommitted" and what an NC or a councilmember has committed, but for which the paperwork isn't all in.

And, beside, what's your point?

You got the answer. Maybe two answers, maybe both correct.

In two weeks, Huizar will be overwhelmingly re-elected to once again manager that fund.

Who do you suppose will be one of the LAST people who's opinion's will matter as to how to spend it?

Cubas was at your meeting on Oct. 6, most likely working with stats from the end of the last reporting period - end of fiscal 2009-10?

By the time Clerk responded to you, the Q1 2010-11 figures were most likely updated.

In City time, even a couple of weeks can change the figures reported - especially at the end of a quarter.

Even the pros running Rudy Rich's campaign aren't trying to make political hay straining at this gnats.

You should take a lesson from them. Even the Martinez family bloggers won't be picking up this torch.

So, you were TOLD from the onset -- "get the full accounting from the City Clerk," you grilled Ms. Cubas for an hour, during which time she probably repeated that 10-times, saying "get the accounting for this fund FROM the CITY CLERK, I'm NOT an accountant - they ARE our accountants."

You asked the City Clerk, they provided it, and then you have your answer.

How is this a problem? If there's a difference in what was reported by the two (and it's not clear from this video that they're both talking about the same fund(s) and time periods, even), then "DOH" maybe THAT'S WHY she kept saying, GET IT FROM THE CITY CLERK!

Wow you have no sense of humor about anything and boy it is the "crime of the century" to dump at the local dump. Yeah, you got Pacheco good!

Say whatever you want to say about Pacheco but I personally liked the fact that he was always available and would take his punches from the constituents directly in community meetings. He didn't hide and avoid answering the questions. He wasn't always right but you always knew where he stood.

He lost to Antonio in 2003, big deal, and in 2005 he again lost to Antonio, not Huizar. You are delusional if you think he lost to Huizar in 2005.

Pacheco had Neighborhood Leadership training so residents could be active in their communities.

He had the guts to shoot down a developer trying to develop Moon Canyon in Mt. Washington by eminent domaining the lots for open space.

He killed development of Ascot Park by re-zoning it open space forever.

He completed the Evergreen Jogging Path.

He had community events that brought people together; like his "unity fairs" and "environmental fairs" in each part of the district.

He reclaimed the Hazard Park Armory from the military but at the same time was smart enough to have the Naval Trauma Training Center use the parking lots to provide free medical services. He took the wetlands in Hazard Park away from the railroads.

When he left office he fully funded the Dog Park in Hermon and the skate park in Garvanza. Of course, Villaraigosa sat on those projects and made them become more expensive to build.

And finally, he kept the district clean by having the bulky item drop off center and there is no reason Huizar couldn't bring back this project with CLARTS funds.

Yes I am a Pacheco supporter and under no circumstances do I see Martinez ever coming to replace someone as committed to being councilmember as Pacheco was.

If Martinez can just be somewhere between Pacheco's open door policy and Huizar's secrecy then I will be happy to work with that type of office.

Nice legacy posturing Lauro.

Yeah, we know it's you. No one liked you THAT much or you'd still be in office.

And no, he wasn't "joking" in that video - Nick was always ready to lie - and ask others to lie for him - about even the most inconsequential things.

Lying isn't a joke, and when you have it exhibited - on video, just like that - and you still try to pretend it wasn't a "serious" response, then you're drinking your own kool-aid.

People "claim" Huizar has lied about things while in office, but without any proof.

But, Pacheco LIES to your face on video, and smiles at you like it's funny. (He didn't get the nickname
"Tricky Nicky" for nothing).


And he WAS behind the first "POCHO" attacks on Antonio, through his buddy in 2003.

Everyone knew it, and that's why Sheriff Baca withdrew his endorsement (and endorsement he now gives easily to Huizar - because we KNOW no real cop is going to endorse flee-the-scene-of-the-crime Rudy).

Antonio didn't beat Pacheco in 2003, Pacheco beat himself playing "tricky" games like that that were so transparent. Sleaze mailers with someone else's name on them - egged on by the candidate.

Each message works for a slightly different audience. This week's messages are massive.

For some, Rudy Rich's troubles with the police mean more than anything (why else would his handlers be trying to dig up all kinds of retired cops to write limp, vapid testimonial letters for him)? Simple, because he's HURTING in that area. BIG TIME.

Why would they be trying to roll out any other small business owner he ever gave an encouraging pat on the back to - also with "he helped me" testimonials.

Because he's hurting nearly as BIG TIME from the lack of community leadership support that Huizar has about 80-90 percent of coralled - districtwide.

(These are OBVIOUSLY the dirty secret weaknesses that his slime polling told Rudy about HIMSELF).

The simple stated fact, that Martinez doesn't speak Spanish, means a great deal to many of the Spanish ONLY-speaking (NOT bilingual) voters in this district.

For MANY of the much lower-paying service and civil service jobs that work those areas "bilingual" is a REQUIRED skill. You can't even answer the WANT AD, without that appearing on your resume.

Why should the most important LEADERSHIP position on L.A.'s Eastside be any different - even if it can't be listed as a "required" skill... it IS, absolutely!

Can you imagine the hell that would break loose if tomorrow, there were no Spanish-speaking cops working out of Hollenbeck. No Spanish-speaking firefighters interacting with people in crisis or disasters.

The City would get SUED, for MILLIONS of bucks, for being UNABLE to provide basic services to the people paying for them - and the most basic service of all is CAN YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT I'M SAYING?

What the hell is Hacopian thinking, that he can spin that sh*t with the "language of representation" trumps actual personal communication? That's just insane (but, granted, he doesn't have a choice!) He's been propping up a 100 percent LOSER for months now with inane spinning.

That won't even fool the limo liberals in the Northeast. It sure isn't going to fly south of York.

I don't think you can count on Rudy Rich ONLY sucking for the first two years, for two reasons: 1) He'll never be elected; but 2) (just for yucks), lets say his is...

All the others you mentioned had some background in public and civil service. They at least understood the basics of government and working with people to solve community problems and issues. (Don't let the "I'm a problem solver" Rudy tripe foll you. When he says "I solve problems, what he means is 'I solve MY problems. The problems that keep ME from getting richer" ...and MORE out of touch with real people.

Rudy Rich is a money-grubbing businessman, cutting corners in every walk of life to get richer and richer. He made MOST of his money off other people's misfortunes - buying they're family homes for pennies, and turning quick profits.

That's NOT typically the profile of someone suited for public life.

Usually, when you take aptitude tests in high school or college, if you have a "business" mentality, you know how to scrounge around and make moey for yourself -- smart counselors steer you in the exact opposite direction from public service.

Rudy should have listened.

Watch one episode of "Flip this Bird" (or whatever it's called), and just see how he relates to his own workers. He's not someone that will work well with whining, hard-luck constituents who don't even know who they should be askign for what.

It's a recipe for extremme disaster, and it would take the NEXT guy two TERMS to clean it all up.

Part of the reason Huizar didn't seem to "hit the ground running" even though he had more local experience in L.A. than Pacheco or Antonio, was BECAUSE Antonio wasn't acting like a councilmember for two years.

Don't waste people's time. If you ask that question, THAT way - you've already decided. All you want to do is POUNCE back and try to rebut every positive thing someone suggests, in a cynical attempt to prove the opposite.

But, it's OKAY. We don't NEED your vote. Huizar will be re-elected without all the "give me a good reason" people who haven't been paying attention anyway.

And YOU will join the other 1/4 to 1/3 that ALWAYS voice contrarian views and elect no one, ever in CD14 (the deadlocking, obstructionist GOP fringe, the "throw them all out" simple-minded types)... the one who ACTUALLY think a unqualified "real guy" (in this case a very RICH, dishonest, non-resident guy) who knows nothing is better than someone who's been doing the job, but not the way the minority of you agree with.

And from that you get:

JIMMY CARTER and ARNOLD SCHWARTZENEGGER


But not this time... so, VOTE your "ANTI" vote for Rudy Rich, and feel good about starting us off on a NEW course with a mediocre nobody -- until about 3 hours after the polls close, when Huizar is reelected, easily, by a double-digit margin, and Rudy rides back to Glendale, $200,000 poorer.

What do you think will happen within the first 6 months when the Huizar-haters here at Mayor Sam's turn into Martinez-haters instead? (Don't believe hat will happen -- ask Antonio, ask Trutanich, ask - pretty much anyone elected).

City Council is about making sure the quality of life remains high for the entire district, not just the connected few. It is about delivering public resources effectively. It is about changing bureaucratic processes so that the agencies make fair and impartial decisions. There is no reason Council people should being MAKING policy on the fly and using discretionary money to do it. This is the sign of a broken government.

Your post re: the "Sherman Oaks" school is completely 100% wrong.

Huizar gave student transportation money to an Eagle Rock-based charter school that was forced (by NIMBY neighbors) to temporarily relocate for one year to a site in Sherman Oaks when LAUSD failed (under state law) to provide it with an alternate site within the area its students were drawn from.

All of the students at the school were from Eagle Rock and surrounding areas and were, nearly all, from CD14 families.

Huizar assisted with about one-months worth of bus transportation, until the school could locate another facility within the district, and reestablish itself as a resource for CD14.

Huizar not only helped the school stay open, he made up for his former employer's (LAUSD) insensitivity to the needs of students on our district.

That was an EXCELLENT use of district discretionary funds.

Do some homework next time, and you won't end up looking so damned foolish!

Judging from the "Rudy - big tobacco" slicks put out by the Huizar campaign, not only was he trying to pass himself off as a polic officer with his illegal badge, but he was also pretending to be the "owner" of restaurants he was only a partial investor in - to the chagrin of the REAL owners, who slapped him down publicly for it.

Fake, fraud, pretender... a pattern!

Rudy Rich is a known quantity. Only blind hatred of Huizar would get anyone to vote for Martinez.

(OH, and catch his own slicks about his "military service"... before he was MEG WHITMAN, trying to buy an election, he was DAN QUAYLE and G.W. BUSH-ing it in the reserves, following in an AGE-old GOP tradition of "defending the home.... um BACK?").

Is that like huevon Huizy getting slapped down by the other council members because the huevon was trying to pass himself off as a councilman.

We'll have another 4 years with Huizar on Council to determine if his peers respect or disrespect him, starting July 1.

(That same week, Rudy Rich will be planning his July 4th "Red (Snapper), White(fish) & Bluefin (Tuna)" sushi menu, to try and recoup 1/100 of his campaign funding losses).



Hoooooo, hah!

That's right, when he was shilling for the cigarette companies as a "restaurant owner" Rudy Martinez wasn't even the actual spokesperson for any restaurants - and the REAL owners disagreed with him.

What a fraud, all the way around.

This Ana Cubas is a real piece of work. Sort of the City Hall Ho. She won't be able to play that card for much longer as she gets older though. Her tone in explaining this fund is kind of condescending.
