What a tempest in a teapot. Screw the Charter and do any damn thing you want. The Democrat corporatist, Zionist,…
Sure you can, Cire!
Thanks for the correction on timing, Vern. I wanted to go ahead and respond to Chumley’s story as soon as…
Seems rather toxic fascism er femininity. Florice is a fascist!
Johnathan Hernandez, also running for AD 68, and eager to speak to the (former) Club, wanted me to mention him;…
A C&D email threatening damages for using the word Democrat? Wow. Seems wildly unnecessary. Why does DPOC have a problem…
On timing, Greg & Dan both seem confused. LAST YEAR - May 2024 - we got in our charter application…
That was actually a great Anaheim Democrats meeting. Our membership just keeps growing, and though I worried we might lose…
Thanks for posting this! I hope it gets greater viewing than the meeting got attendance! I thought the questions had too many softballs (has ANYONE ever stood up in a forum and said ” I’m for MORE graffitti, LESS cops, WORSE Schools, and WHO CARES about our kids!”) and surprised that “SOAR” and “TOT” were new to the moderator but hope the future forums will compensate. It would be great if future forum sponsors could tell their attendees about THIS video also,to increase voter knowledge. Two notes: Mr. Chuchua’s comparison of Resort and non-Resort streetscaping (1:24:20)is skewed – All Resort area properties pay an ADDITIONAL Landscape & Lighting DISTRICT Assessment, dedicated for that. I doubt that the average resident wants a FURTHER special assessment! I DON’T! And Ms. Linder remarked (1:05:20)that TOT tax was dedicated to the Resort area – I believe only a PERCENTAGE is dedicated to pay off bonds for the Expansion, but the rest goes to the G.F. I wonder if any NON Resort motels (Beach Blvd.?) receive ANY dedicated benefits from the TOT tax THEY COLLECT? I look forward to the next forum, and hope to see more video! THANKS!
LaundromatViewer – This was the response given to me by The City of Anaheim’s spokeswoman Ruth Ruiz:
What percentage or $ amount of the TOT collected actually ends up in the general fund?
FY 2011/12 TOT revenue (unaudited) totaled $90.4 million. All TOT comes into the General Fund, and approximately $47.1 remained after transfers to debt service.
