MAD Gets Irate

Three things to note about the Golden Hill MAD meeting... First, this committee has been charged with spending the voter approved funds on Golden Hill Projects. They have not spent one dime on improving Golden Hill. Second, they have populated their meetings with procedural bather and tail chasing. This is because many of the committee member's stated goal is the removal of this newly created special benefit zone. People can critize Marco as much as they like but Little Italy is a great neighporhood as a result of has work... and Golden Hill could be that way also were it not for the efforts the NIMBYs who have side tracked the MAD committee. Third, anyone who was at that committee meeting would have witnessed a lesson in deliberate disfunction. Visit www.fearandloathingongoldenhill.com for a better review of the meeting.
