Why No El Sereno Fourth of July Parade in 2016? The Discretionary (Funds) Details.

As the CD-14 El Sereno Community Social Media Dialog heats up over the surprise Cancellation of the annual El Sereno Bicentennial Committee "Fourth of July Parade", we disclose the "Discretionary (Funds) Facts that show the Office of  CD 14 City Councilman Jose Huizar's apparent prudent oversight in allocating funding for various El Sereno community events. 

No Parade beyond the Barricades in 2016.

"Nellie" is none too happy about Parade Cancellation.

** Blogger's Note: In recent days, the Social Media chatter in the CD-14 El Sereno Community has been ceaseless regarding the SURPRISE cancellation of the 2016 Installment of the Bicentennial Committee's "Fourth of July Parade". Back in recent bloggin time, we have documented issues regarding nefarious fiscal problems (including the supposed SHREDDING of tax documents) ............, and other questionable actions, associated with a certain Bicentennial Committee Board Member. That said, its become apparent in the last couple of weeks that the Office of CD 14 City Councilman Jose Huizar, is the latest to have questions regarding its financing of the Bicentennial Committee Parade Budget. Sources state that the Office of Councilman Huizar would only pledge to fund certain Parade Budget Line Items .........., which is in line with prudent fiscal allocations. Further, in the documents below obtained from the City Clerk, they show that Councilman Huizar WITHDREW a $10,000 allocation to the Bicentennial Committee ............, and $15,000 to the El Sereno Stallions at the end of the last Fiscal Year (2015), due to "time constrains" (red marking denote El Sereno groups that received Discretionary Funding). We should note for the record, that the Bicentennial Committee Letter below, listing the Board of Directors, included Genny Guerrero, Husband John and Mom/President Violeta, Also, Frank Guerrero and his Wife Roxy Melgar, was the Treasurer of the Stallions----Scott Johnson.

Outtakes from the LA-32 NC Underground Special Report: NC President Marleen Fonseca faces Stakeholders-initiated Censure Petition

The Stakeholders of the LA-32 Neighborhood Council are pushing back against the contemptuous behavior of terminated LAPD Employee Marleen Caudillo, now facing a Censure Petition, President Marleen Fonseca.  

A toast to the War against those who signed the Censure Petition Marleen?

** Blogger's Note: For those who love contentious Public Meetings, this Wednesday, December 2, 2015 LA-32 Neighborhood Council General Board Meeting (by reviewing its agenda), has all the ingredients needed. From agenda items pertaining to funding requests for events fronted by the cyber-bullying-endorsing El Sereno Bicentennial Committee, possible Board Member removals for excessive absences and selection of their replacements, its does not take much to stimulate passionate debate among this group of decreasing Julio Torres-allied Board Members. But the major HOT BUTTON ISSUE, will surely be the Censure Petition crafted by Stakeholders, directed at the actions of President Fonseca (formerly Caudillo). As documented in recent weeks, the aura of civility at LA-32 NC Meetings, has gone the way of President Fonseca's former LAPD employment (maybe for the same cause?). The last November Meeting, featured yelling matches, contentions exchanges and even an alleged attempt of physical intimidation.(which was caught on video). Objective LA-32 Stakeholders would be advise to contact Empower LA General Manager Grayce Liu, to express their concerns, but should remember that it was her who endorsed this changing of leadership----Scott Johnson   

Did President Fonseca (formerly Caudillo) declare WAR against Stakeholders and Anthony Manzano for crafting and signing the Centure Petition against her?

Its Time to Light Up the 2014 Huizar Christmas Tree (** and disclose the 2013-2014 Fiscal Year Gifts to CD 14 Organizations)!

With the 2015 CD-14 March Elections four months away, its time to disclose the "2013-2014 Fiscal Year Joys of Giving Report (or vote buying?)" by Clowncilman Jose Huizar to various Community-based Organizations (CBOs), in the Mexico PRI-styled quest to drive up his vote base. 

The quest for reelection always brings out the best in Clowncilman Huizar's (and connected friends) sponsored Holiday Events.

This year's El Sereno Huizzynista Christmas Tree is brought to you by noted Clowncilman Huizar supporter Joe Cano.

**Blogger's Report: Great Saturday morning to everyone as we near the start of another CD 14 City Clowncil Central Committee Member Jose "The Tonto Huevon" Huizar "Reelection Holiday Season Special Event" this afternoon in El Sereno. With the self-noting Princeton Graduate seeking a third and final term as the Purveyor of Favors for the Downtown LA Special Interests, whoops, meant representative of Clowncil District 14, the Incumbent's noted cycle of pre-election attentiveness (mixed with the dispensing of spoils to voter-rich CBOs), is again, all too apparent to the discerning political observer. In 2015, with a formidable reelection challenge coming from termed-out LA County Board of Supervisor Gloria Molina, the embattled "Tonto Huevon" is falling back on the documented Mexico PRI-tactics of using the material resources of the office to buy key voter blocks, in the diverse areas within his district, as evident in the 2014 General Purposes Fund Report obtain from the City Clerk's Office (** The entire eight page report is posted below). From Eagle Rock, where numerous community group (with high propensity voters) received fiscal allocations, to targeted groups in El Sereno (the Bicentennial Committee and Stallions Pop Warner Program) and  Boyle Heights (the "Connected Non-Profit Enclave" within CD 14), the "Spirit of Giving (in return for votes), has been shifted into high gear (with ethical concerns a mere afterthought) ** BTW, what does challenger Gloria Molina think of buying off organizations, or paying for campaign hired guns? From the Downtown News ........, Molina will get plenty of opportunity to make her case in the next four months. She expects to attend numerous neighborhood coffee sessions. She hopes to have precinct walkers, but says she wants them to be unpaid volunteers, not hired guns. After all, it should not be about what your "buy point" is, but whether the Incumbent is worthy of another term, based upon factual achievements of distinction---Scott Johnson.  

Page 1 of 2014 CD 14 General City Purposes Fund Report. ** Note the $20,000 allocation to now Huizar Staffer Genny "Godoy" Guerrero's El Sereno Bicentennial Committee (most likely to cover 2014 parade cost and "other expenses"?). Plus, the Boyle Heights Wolfpack get their annual allocation of Huizar "support me affection".

Introducing alleged, new Clowncilman Huizar Staffer Genny "Godoy" Guerrero

As CD 14 City Clowncilman Jose Huizar reshuffles staffers into Campaign Positions, the "Tonto Huevon" seeks out loyal supporters like Genny "Godoy" Guerrero (allegedly), to fill the void (of a certain ex scheduler?), in executing Constituent Services (to supportive community members).  

Meet the alleged, newest Clowncilman Huizar Staffer Genny "Godoy" Guerrero, who also serves as the El Sereno Bicentennial Parade Committee "Parade Coordinator" along with being a member of the LAPD Hollenbeck Community Police Advisory Board (CPAB).

** Blogger's Note:  With the formality of the Private Settlement between CD 14 City Clowncil Central Committee Member Jose "Tonto Huevon" Huizar and former Deputy Chief of Staff Francine Godoy, regarding her Sexual Harassment Claims, consummated at some undisclosed location, the 'Tonto Huevon" is freed (with wife Richelle's blessing) to resume their collected pursuit of four more years of public-finance existence as the reigning overseers of Ciudad de Los Angeles's CD 14. Surely, with Ms Godoy-Soto exiled to a Bureau of Sanitation position, discerning observers would think that the former Miss Richelle Rios (who may have masterminded the Francine exiting) could feel secure in keeping her "Tonto Huevon" from straying. But its safe to say that old habits (or perverted sense of infidelity entitlements) will not change soon. Thus, if Barrister Richelle does not want another "Sancha Eruption" to interfere with her solitary want of the "Tonto Huevon", she may want to take notice (or look the other way) at her husband's latest (alleged) hire, as we extrapolate upon below---Scott Johnson.

Dispatches from the "Disempowerment LA-occupied" LA-32 Neighborhood Council Underground for 9-6-14

LIVE from the LA-32 NC Underground, its our "First Annual Community Connected Non-Profits Gone Wild Video Festival", as dubious 501-C3s join together in protecting their alleged, fraudulent, secretive sense of fiscal entitlement, from those who value Openness and Transparency when allocating public funds.   

 Would Alta Med take Exception to sponsoring the El Sereno Bicentennial Committee, who has allegedly practice Quality Care in SHREDDING past tax documents and endorses Cyber Bullying to intimidate its critics?

Sunday (on Saturday) Bloggin Comments (on Cyber Bullying endorsing Genny) to Mayor Sam for 8-30-14

 Its time to highlight those "Anonymous Maverick Commentators", who take the time to offer their respective insight/spin/chisme on our bloggin musings, (of course, we do not take responsibility, or endorse the comments noted here as true, but heck, sometimes they provide a tipoff worth further investigating ......., especially if the allegedly SHREDDING of tax documents is involve.).

 Former Maverick Los Angeles Mayor Sam Yorty R.I.P.

** Blogger's Notes: Happy Opening College Football Saturday as we bring this Special Edition of Bloggin Comments to Mayor Sam. Many of you spent quality time, keyboarding comments on the likes of "Disempowerment LA", "Broken Deal Cedillo", a Staffer name "Julio", the former Marleen Caudillo (now Fonseca), among others. But by far, most of your comments were in regards to El Sereno Bicentennial Parade Coordinator Genny "I like Cyber Bullying" Guerrero. While many of your comments (and our recent coverage) have focus on Genny's endorsing (or in Facebook Speak, "Like") of a cowardly Cyber Bullying Facebook Page (which continues to grow it lists of victims), the paramount issue of importance should be why a long time community Non-Profit, that has been the recipient of both public and private funds (from the likes of Wells Fargo, Health Net, Alta Med among others), has SHREDDED past tax records. Maybe that is why those who dare ask such questions have become victims of slanderous acts of Cyber Bullying in the 90032?---Scott Johnson.

Maybe the "best decision" for the likes of Health Net, is not to give money to a community organization that has SHREDDED past tax documents.

A Bloggin Dialog with LA 32 Agitator Joe Cano in the Spirit of disclosing alleged, Nefarious Community Conduct

In the spirit of bloggin dialog, we reach out to noted No on 710 Activist and sometimes Mayor Sam Blog Critic Joe Cano (when not busy between repeated trips to the corner liquor store on Alhambra Road and Warwick) in the spirit of sharing thoughts on alleged, nefarious conduct within the LA-32 Community. 

Message to Cano (in hat and No 710 T-shirt), please refrain from taking pictures of children at local parks when seeking out alleged campaign misconduct (allegedly).

** A Bloggin Open Letter: Hola Joe!! Hope I'm not interrupting one of your frequent walks, back and forth, to the corner store on Alhambra Road and Warwick, but since we have not converse in person in recent months, I thought it would be the right moment to reach out across the cyber landscape in the spirit (with a sip of a brown bag-wrapped bottle of spirits you are fond of, allegedly) of engaging you in a dialog on some issues of mutual concern. Maybe its me, but it seems that in recent years, especially when a LA-32 NC Elections draws near, you have a tendency to engage in a level of rhetoric that is not healthy to the civil discourse (especially when consumption of adult beverages get mixed into one's convoluted thought process, allegedly) of issues important to our fellow Stakeholders. Thus, let me extend the invitation to join me in a bloggin discourse on a couple of recent community issues of joint interest. Please follow along below (and give me notice if you need a break for corner store refreshment walk, allegedly) ..........

A Recent LA-32 NC Budget and Finance Committee (as recorded by the El Sereno Delusional Society)

......, Joe, you and I can agree that the annual Bicentennial Parade is a worthy community public- private collaboration that merits continuing support. That said, it was disappointing to learn that you targeted egregiously LA-32 NC Board Members Anthony Manzano, Angelica Duarte and Scott Johnson (this blogger for the record), last evening at the LA-32 NC Candidate Forum. No level of disrespect from you, or any Stakeholder, should prevent elected NC Board Members from questioning how its allocated funding to this event, has, or is being dispensed ......., especially when "Parade Coordinator" Genny Guerrero states at the 27:30 time mark on the video, that previous tax records for the Bicentennial Committed had been shredded (which prompts me to ponder whether you can say quickly, SHREDDED, SHREDDED, SHREDDED, three times in a row without a spirits-induce hick-up, but I digress), moving on ......

 ...., Joe, about these letters from Wilson High School LAPD Magnet Cadets (who's identities you made public at a recent LA-32 NC Meeting and via your Facebook Page), that is the foundation for your latest insipid, baseless attack on your fellow "No on 710 Colleague". There is an old adage that when it comes to a story, or in your case, a controversy novella to cover the nefarious actions of others, allegedly, you should be objective in discerning both sides. Please note above that I have taken the time to highlight the responsible party the night at Wilson High School when I supposed acted out of character (or in truth, discovered an inappropriate use of students and potentially, misuse of public funds, to benefit a certain group of LA 32 NC Candidates), that would be LA-32 NC President Connie Castro-appointed Election Committee Chairperson Yolie Garcia (also an associated with the El Sereno Historical Society), continuing ............

...., Joe, as a taypayer, you should know that roughly $260 dollars was spent from the LA-32 NC Elections Committee Meet and Greet Budget Line Item ($1,000 total) for this supposed, objective gathering of candidates for the next incarnation of the community elective body. Thus, you should maybe send a email to the Region VIII "Independent Elections Administrator" Jay Handal (jay@empowerla), inquiring what type of election-related flyers this Cadet in Uniform were being instructed to dispense at the event. But maybe the cadets can answer that for us as we continue .........  

....., Joe, as someone who should agree with me that students should not be use for political purposes, especially uniformed Wilson High School LAPD Magnet Cadets during a school function, is it fair to ask the question, was Yolie Garcia abusing her position as the Elections Committee Chairperson by instructing the cadets to hand out a certain candidate slate flyer? Further Joe, is it also appropriate considering the disclosures by the cadets statements, made public by you, that first, an investigation be called for to discern whether public funds were being use to benefit a certain group of candidates and lastly, whether an LAUSD employee should also be investigated for her role in this as we continue below ...........  

......, Joe, its clear from the statement you provided from longtime Wilson High School Educator Elsa Gutierrez-Aviles, that the cadets were engaging in a activity which was not appropriate. Further, you can see below a copy of the "flyer" that the cadets were passing out via the instructions of Yolie Garcia. You may take notice of the candidates listed on the flyer and may be surprise to find the name of Genny Guerrero among them (** BTW Joe, is your wife a Bicentennial Committee Board Member?). Just in case you didn't know, Ms. Guerrero is also a Hollenbeck Community Police Advisory Board Member. Thus, you can understand that the use of LAPD-affiliated cadets to campaign on her behalf at a school function, should be grounds for a Internal Affairs Investigation by the department. But also in retrospect, I'm sure that you would agree that the actions of Ms. Gutierrez-Aviles merits a "Form 100" being filed with LAUSD. In ending....... 

....., Joe, it has be a pleasure to converse via this bloggin dialog, my thoughts on the issues brought to the community's attention by your refuted, insipid allegations as noted above. Its Stakeholders/Critics like yourself, that provide the motivation to serve our community with a foundation cemented in ethics and the truth. I sincerely hope that this bloggin refutation of the falseholds perpetrated against myself, by those who nefarious intent should disqualify from being elected to any public office, will lead to a LA-32-centric Grass Roots Organization that places paramount, the priority of holding our community members to the highest level of ethical and fiscal behavior. Care to be a Founding Member Mr. Cano (with a brown bag toast of course)?

 

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

Scott Johnson in CD 14
