HUIZAR'S CARROW'S STAFF MEETING: In case you were wondering why council was late getting started today (Garshady has to read the rules about the Council meeting starting on time), part of it was because Zuma Dogg noticed Councilmember Jose Huizar was having a staff meeting at Carrows this morning, pre-quorum. And I'd like to remind you, next time ZD will feel free to join my honorary "Docatos" for the meeting, y'all! (And you can write the whole thing off as a "Special Event Fee Waiver".)
Zuma Times & LA Times: Zuma Times brings you the coverage of the coverage. Today LA Times David Zanhiser was interviewing CM Huizar about the Broadway District redevelopment plans. So ZD busted out the ZumaCam and captured Huizar's response that you will read in the Times. So I can't wait for the story and I'll post the video of Huizar along with the Times story. And when Z-man was done...Z-dogg followed up with a question. Gotta love bloggers running rampant at City Hall, y'all!
JACKIE GOLDBERG AT CITY HALL: Former CM and Assemblymember Jackie Goldberg showed up in Council Chambers today and made an appearance on the ZumaCam with ZD!
She was there with a bunch of kids in "Protect Special Order 40" Tshirts. You can catch what she had to say on the City TV 35 replay, or LACity.org website.
ZUMA DISCUSSES HOME DEPOT DURING GENERAL PUBLIC COMMENT: Everyone knows about the Home Depot City Attorney bullsh*t mediation session on Saturday in Sunland-Tujunga.
ZD showed up to check things out. First thing that hit me was, "How is this even part of LA City Hall jurisdiction?" And I immediately felt bad that this community is tagged with all the fraud, waste, abuse and stupidity of Mayor Antonio Shadyrosa and Los Angeles Shitty Clowncil. But the thing I mentioned during public comment today is, "Why would Home Depot even want to build a location where you have 300 people show up on a Saturday to protest against it?" Councilmember Grieg Smith made one of those "money-money-money" hand gestures to ZD (as if we didn't know, but thanks CM Smith!) ZD added, Tell Latham and Watkins to stop violating the law that they created!" Bottom Line: I'm really glad I took the first time trip to S-T to check it out. THE MOST OBVIOUS F*CKING THING IN THE WHOLE PLANET IS THAT THIS HOME DEPOT DOES NOT FIT INTO THIS COMMUNITY. IT REALLY IS BEYOND AN OUTRAGE. I hope everyone that works for Latham and Watkins is run over by a truck driving down that narrow little country street 300 feet away from a school, you douche bags. I HATE THOSE SHADY F*CKERS AT LATHAM AND WATKINS. THEY AREN'T FOOLING ANYONE! WENDY GREUEL AIN'T SO INNOCENT IN ALL OF THIS EITHER! (I hope the new LA City fraud, waste and abuse unit looks into conflicts of interest over this Home Depot shady-fest!)
FRAUD, WASTE & ABUSE UNIT ON CITY AGENDA: (Insert joke here) Yes, CM Jose Huizar introduced some "fraud, waste and abuse" item on today's agenda. They should start with him! (Just kidding, Jose...kind of.)
ITEM NO. (20)
