Well-informed source tells me: Watch @WPLGLocal10 tonight @ 6PM for 'amazing' example of #HallandaleBeach's unethical govt./pol. sensibility— HallandaleBeachBlog (@hbbtruth) October 21, 2016
Not related to the Hallandale Beach news above on Channel 10 News via Bob Norman, but worth considering:
So what have Alex Lewy and Joy Cooper been commiserating about?
Their mutual London & Lazarow obsession!
So where are their good ideas to improve things?
MIA, as usual.
Also noteworthy, Cooper's only mention of Bill Julian on her Twitter feed since last Thanksgiving is this Sun-Sentinel article wherein Julian claimed he'd eventually be "vindicated."
Vindicated?
How does someone get vindicated if they, in fact, are the first person to actually say or allege that they did something wrong in the first place, in Julian's case, illegally?
Makes you wonder if Julian actually knows what the meaning of the word vindicated actually is.
But then it could hardly be more apparent from his dismal, dubious and ethically-challenged reign on the HB City Commission that Bill Julian doesn't know the meaning of several words that matter to residents, Small Business owners and interested parties.
Like integrity, accountability, oversight, preparation and ethics.
It really makes you wonder whether the people of Hallandale Beach could handle the prospect of Cooper, Julian and Lewy all on the City Commission dais one more time, jockeying to see who could be more obvious about making fools of the city -and themselves- as they did once did so consistently, regularly claiming things to be true that anyone else paying attention could clearly see were
NOT true.
By the way, how is it that just 19 days before the election, no objective person can plausibly answer the question of why Lewy is running to return to the City Commission he quit before his first term was even up, except for sheer political opportunism?
And why isn't Michelle Lazarow asking publicly -and rhetorically- why would anyone in Hallandale Beach who genuinely cares about the city's long-term future, want to go backwards to Lewy the Liar's showy brand of deceitful, snarky, know-it-all-ism of personal ambition barely disguised as public service?
For instance, like the time Lewy approved a number of exceptions to HB CRA loan rules to give funds to a politically-connected applicant, that, at the time, had still NOT even paid back to the city/CRA/taxpayers tens of thousands of dollars they ALREADY owed from a previous HB CRA loan?
Something that was in direct contravention of the HB CRA's OWN rules, and against the city staff's recommendation, which said it should NOT be approved.
But, it was approved.
Surprise!
The same politically-connected people that received the HB CRA funds gave Comm. Lewy an award at a highly-publicized public event soon thereafter.
Yes, THAT is how things really were with Lewy around, or am I the only one who remembers those inconvenient facts from just a few years ago?
It's inexplicable, but don't count on the South Florida news media bringing any of this up, since they IGNORED it when it was actually happening - and shown the facts, including the city's own
documents.
Lewy's twitter feed has been changed to private very recently. I wonder why.
He was always so keen to tell everyone just what he thought.
Endlessly...
