News Flash - Charges filed against GPNC Board Chair Bradley

Blogger's note: HE'S BACK! One of our past favorite poster childs of political power run amok, is at it again. Longtime community activist Tony Butka brings you the details of Glassell Park Neighborhood Council's resident egomaniac's "gone wild with CRA collusion", with help from CD 14 Councilman Huizar supporter and fellow GPNC member Ruby DeVera. Link here to see past videos of Bradley's antics.

Tuesday evening Board member Tony Butka filed a demand with the Glassell Park Neighborhoood Council that the Chair, Bradley, be removed for cause from the Board. For the details, see the post

I presented my demands as a Board Member to have Bradley removed from the board on the grounds of having the interests of EBE Associates and himself at heart, rather than the GPNC and the community, as he plays footsie with the CRA/LA NELA Project staff to gin up support for the project while lying to the Board about both his conflict and activities. Just think about it -- Bradley, CRA, Huizar, Reyes, Garcetti. Who could ask for anything more?

-this is a guest post from Tony Butka. More later...
