(Zine is a buffoon from the W. VAlley who flaunts being essentially free of the city, and "our" problems w/ gangs, graffiti, etc. -- he's also ireelevant, an uncouth oaf.)<BR/><BR/>Re: Eveloff's claims that Lisa from Weiss's office thanked him for his "leadership," that was BEFORE this recall, and before the other pblms surfaced, not NOW, another twisting of the facts and truth.<BR/><BR/>Yes, I know there are 5 others who signed the peition: One is Steve Twining, the Pres. of the BABCNC (hillside N C), but NO ONE in that ASSOCIAITON supports him on this, certainly not the rank and file who never even attend the meetings: it's just him and the Board, He's always been griping that Weiss d/n go to the meetings in person unless there's a special reason to whe he HAS -- BUT WEISS'S EXCELLENT DEPUTIES ARE ALWAYS THERE, AND HE SENDS REPS FROM FIRE/POLICE ETC., I've heard other BABCNC board members criticize twerpy, whining Twining and say that have gotten excellent support from Weiss's ofc.<BR/>As have most individual homeowners.<BR/><BR/>Another signer is Marcia Selz, also a retired grandma w/ too much time on her hands -- she gets herself onto many Boards (you can be just involved in any community group to get on one, mind), and that's one way she inflates the figures of how many allgedly support the recall. <BR/><BR/>As for the report Eveloff quotes re: D- on Weiss: the three signers/ plotters on that include the self-same Marcia Selz, Diana Plotkin (another Gang of 5 Recall signer and like the other two I've mentioned, a retired lady w/ too much time on her hands, and a desire to turn the clock back to '50's Mayberry.) The third signer of that is G. G. Verone, who reps NOBODY IN THE HILLS, started a group called S.O.S. for "Save the Strip," -- from the enormous "Sunset Specific Plan" We Ho has approved, centering on Sunset Plaza Drive -- includes two10-story high-rise hotel/convention center/ condo/ retail complexes and MORE.<BR/>-- Even those like me who strongly oppose that and have supported people who took on that issue in the past, CAN'T STAND VERONE; when I and a few formerly active others talked to her, she ripped our heads off for not doing exaclty what SHE wants and when and how, dished dirt on a famous director/producer for the same reason... no wonder the only people she can ally w/ her are the self-same Selz and Plotkin, who clearly so P. O's Weiss w/ their haughty, bossy demeanor that they've led us to conclude it was they who were dissed. NO WAY.<BR/><BR/>So, these are the figureheads/ plotters behind the Recall: a sad and sneaky lot, who have to resort to censorhip to get anti-weiss comments on their nasty little blog.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-76686535880049935762007-06-02T08:50:00.000-07:002007-06-02T08:50:00.000-07:00ZD, wake up.Its about Hertzberg!Its about a busine...ZD, wake up.<BR/><BR/>Its about Hertzberg!<BR/>Its about a business plan!<BR/>Its about person X or thing Y!<BR/><BR/>Its about one thing: Jack Weiss<BR/>Its about Jack Weiss representing himself and his campaign donors and NOT his constituents.

No business plan was EVER given to JMB. <BR/><BR/>Presumably, the plan is being mentioned to disparage and/or embarrass me and to create some suspicion with regard to my motives. No doubt this was done as a diversionary tactic to minimize the impact of the damaging information being presented concerning the JMB project and the real reasons behind the recall.<BR/><BR/>I feel it is important to set the record straight. Often, before discussions with JMB and their attorneys (George Mihlsten & Francis Park), we spoke of what each of us do outside of volunteer community work.<BR/><BR/>During one of those casual conversations, the lawyers asked "so, what are you working on when you aren't making developer's lives difficult?" I then described several things including a start-up. THEY then asked if I had any printed material. As I had worked with these two before and had some respect for them, as a courtesy, I showed them the plan. That's it. There was NO effort to get anyone to invest. Not at all. The simple fact is that I never attended ANY negotiating session without two other representatives from other associations with me. They can corroborate all that happened. <BR/><BR/>This kind of effort to malign me shows the depths to which Jack Weiss, JMB and its representatives will go to push through a flawed project worth many hundreds of millions of dollars. <BR/><BR/>What is important to point out is that BOTH George Mihlsten of Latham and Bob Nowak of JMB called me to apologize for how I was being portrayed. So, if the people ACTUALLY AT THE TABLE don't see a problem and apologized, it should make you wonder what those pushing the issue are trying to hide.<BR/><BR/>Also ask yourself: How can I be all that bad when Lisa Trifilleti from Jack's office thanked me for my leadership on this issue?<BR/><BR/>Let's put the focus back where it belongs: On Jack Weiss. <BR/><BR/>Over 50 HOA leaders gave him a D+ on his job(see the www.recalljackweiss.com) website, links area for a copy. Almost two dozen voted to start the recall. Hundreds of volunteers have asked to be a part of the effort. You will see five names as the "official" proponents of the recall. Mine will not be there.<BR/><BR/>This isn't about me or one project or a business plan. Its about Jack Weiss violating the trust of his constituents.<BR/><BR/>Mike EveloffAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-28468994243952909792007-05-27T16:31:00.000-07:002007-05-27T16:31:00.000-07:0010:38am,Thanks for the cue!
