A MLK Day Open Letter To CD-7 Councilperson Rodriguez Regarding Her Supporter's Communal Character (or lack of)

On this MLK Day after last Thursday's Sunland Tujunga Neighborhood Council's Kangaroo Court-like assault on the Communal Character of longtime STNC Activist Cindy Cleghorn, we question CD-7 Councilperson Monica Rodriguez's association with those spearheading the repugnant personal attacks on Cleghorn ........, and actionable falsehoods, targeting those keyboarding the documented truth.

** Blogger's Notes: On this Martin Luther King Day after last Thursday's Sunland Tujunga Neighborhood Council's disgraceful, legally-questionable and Kangaroo Court-like proceedings, in attempting to remove longtime NC Activist Cindy Cleghorn from it Land Use Committee, we want to share the following thoughts with CD-7 City Councilperson Monica Rodriguez. 

Emulating the spirit of Dr. King, we aspire to root our musings, on character-based reporting of the facts, absent of biases based upon gender, race or political affiliations. 

Those traits were exampled by the great majority, who wrote and spoke against the STNC-proposed action targeting Cleghorn, giving witness to her selfless (and countless) Acts of Character, in the interest of protecting the communal environment of Sunland Tujunga ....., and beyond.

We like to ponder that in an ideal CD-7 ethical environment, its Officeholder would be lauding those standing by Cleghorn and holding accountable those responsible for acting subjectively ........, but Councilperson Rodriguez's continuing silence, is evidence (along with the documentation presented below), of her own character failings ........., with adverse ramifications. 

Since her election, CD-7 Councilperson Rodriguez's campaign contributors have ramped up the bully-like attacks on perceived critics of her political agenda. In the aftermath of the failed attempt to remove Cleghorn, they have reaped the ire of a great majority, repulse by their reviled ......., and ACTIONABLE conduct.

For the record, screen shots from Sunland Tuunga-based Facebook Pages, disclose Councilperson Rodriguez's Contributors Arnie "Convicted Criminal" Abramyan and Sonia Tutulian, making False/Actionable Statements regarding financial compensation by prominent NC Advocates to this ......., Mayor Sam (not CityWatch LA) Writer (a formal statement will be forthcoming).

In closing, Councilwoman Rodriguez's needs to immediately repudiate the falsehoods and vile behavior by her campaign supporters or face further repudiations ......., and formal sanctions----Scott Johnson

A Ready, Set .........., Road Diet-inhibiting Evacuation Brief from Sunland Tujunga for Monday

As new CD-7 City Councilperson Monica Rodriguez engaged in "Lights, Cameras, Photo-Ops" during the recent La Tuna Fire, the supposed "Ready, Set, Go Evacuations" of Constituents, along with the ability of First Responders to facilitate them, were imperiled by her supported, Foothill Blvd Road Diet. 

"Lights Camera, Photo-Ops (with appropriate wardrobe)" for CD-7 City Councilperson Monica "Fire Marshall Lady M-Rod" Rodriguez.

** Blogger's Notes: As new CD-7 City Councilperson Monica "Fire Marshall Lady M-Rod" Rodriguez engaged herself in the "Lights, Cameras, Photo-Ops Duties" of an Elected Official during a civic emergency, as exampled by the recent La Tuna Fire, the daughter of a former LAFD Fireman, apparently FAILED to ensure a speedy, "Ready, Set, Go Evacuation" of her Constituents. 

 

According to a KABC 790 AM Report, Sunland Tujunga Resident's ability to vacate their homes (and First Responder's ability to facilitate), were severely constrained by an imposed Foothill Blvd Road Diet (that constricted Foothill Blvd to one lane in each direction) supported by the Councilperson. 

Sunland Tujunga Neighborhood Council (STNC) Member Pat Kramer stated the following;

“We had thousands of motorists coming through our community on one single lane,” Kramer stated. “We also had emergency vehicles trying to get through who were unable to navigate the cars. Cars had to drive up on the bollards. In some cases, up on the sidewalk and we were told that LAPD had to send in motorcycles because they couldn’t get their cruisers through.”

Further, sources tell Mayor Sam that supposed protocols that would of removed the bollards in time of a civic emergency (ie. a major brush fire), were not initiated ..........., despite the FACT that Councilperson Rodriguez was traveling from one location, to the next, in search of "Lights, Cameras, Photo-Ops" opportunities.

The STNC wasted no time in voting to ensure NO future, "Ready, Set, Road Diet-inhibiting Evacuation FUBARs", by calling upon their NEW Councilperson to remove the Foothill Blvd Constriction that, NOW CD-7 Statffer Eve Sinclair enabled (on behalf of Rodriguez and Mayor Eric Garcetti) during her time on the STNC Board.

It remains unclear whether Councilperson Rodriguez will respect the WISHES of her constituents----Scott Johnson.
