Unsurprisingly, the Skid Row Formation Committee lost its bid in an amazingly close election, considering the forces lined up against them. You have to wonder how many homeless voters had access to any of this tech – as opposed to their opponents with their iPhones, social media chops, and political clout.
When all of this didn’t work, Jose Huizar himself slammed through online voting just for this election, with about two weeks to go before the vote. “He sent a 10-page letter to BONC (as well as to Garcetti, Feuer, Huizar, Grayce Liu and DONE’s City Attorney, Darrren Matrinez.) You can find a link to his letter in an article here. I mention all of this to help folks understand the implications of the fact that ex-City Attorney Rocky Delgadillo, back in 2017, represented the anti-Skid Row front group, United Downtown aka Unite DTLA, as: We also advise governments and public sector bodies.” They include more than half of the Fortune 250 and nearly half of the FTSE 350 or their subsidiaries. Our clients range from multinational, Global 1000, and Fortune 500 enterprises to emerging companies developing industry-leading technologies. We deliver consistent services across our platform of practices and sectors in all matters we undertake. We achieve this through practical and innovative legal solutions that help our clients succeed. We strive to be the leading global business law firm by delivering quality and value to our clients. “DLA Piper is a global law firm with lawyers located in more than 40 countries throughout the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia Pacific, positioning us to help clients with their legal needs around the world. I mention this since their reach is huge: These days, Rocky is a Superlawyer for DLA Piper, the giant developer law firm. I think he was about the last genuine lawyer in that role. In January 2017, DONE (Department of Neighborhood Empowerment) sent the formation committee the approval and a notice calling for an election, with the unprecedented language that their election “may also include online voting.” We already knew the establishment of DLANC and HCNC (Historic Cultural Neighborhood Council) were well funded to take them out when their front group, United Downtown, or Unite DTLA, was represented by former City Attorney Rocky Delgadillo’s law firm.”įor those who don’t remember Rocky Delgadillo, he was the LA City Attorney from 2001 to 2009, when he was finally termed out. As early as 2014, the Skid Row NC Formation Committee was created to try and get out of the DLANC, as downtown real estate values soared and the plight of the homeless tanked. “Most of us who were around when the Neighborhood Councils were first formed knew how DLANC (the Downtown NC) was set up was to “manage” Skid Row. Since few Angelenos ever paid any attention to this slimy fix, here’s some background I wrote back in 2017 about the real stakes at play in the election: If you want to know how rotten this whole deal was, just read on. If he can’t do that, then take note of what that tells us a Feuer administration would look like. It’s a remedy for all the City-sponsored election illegalities, and there is little practical impact on the City of Los Angeles as a whole. It doesn’t cost much in terms of money if he simply decides to find in favor of certifying the Skid Row NC Formation Committee as a Neighborhood Council. My thought is that if Mike Feuer wants to have any legitimacy at all in the race for Mayor in 2022, he should fix the fix on Skid Row’s election, which is still tied up in a hostile court fight. I don’t know why this is OK for the Neighborhood Council system, when it is patently illegal for regular City Elections.
It just happened in a Subdivision Election for Neighborhood Councils, instead of a regular election for our elected officials. Beware though, it's not for the faint of heart.EASTSIDER-If you really think about it, the Skid Row Neighborhood Council Formation Committee’s election in 2017 is actually a story about massive election fraud in Los Angeles. 4 years in the making and picking up several modding awards on the way, it is now a free, standalone game for anyone to enjoy. Not everything is as it seems.Ĭry of Fear originally started out as a Half-Life 1 modification, set in the same vein as the classic survival horror games of old. With a strong emphasis on cinematic experience, immersion and lateral thinking, players will be taken on a nightmare rollercoaster-ride through the grim streets of Fäversholm and beyond. You play as a young man desperately searching for answers in the cold Scandinavian night, finding his way through the city as he slowly descends into madness. Cry of Fear is a psychological single-player and co-op horror game set in a deserted town filled with horrific creatures and nightmarish delusions.
