So yesterday I filed my paperwork to Run (again) for City of Miami Commissioner District 2.

“Jav, why would you do this to yourself” you ask.

Simply put, It’s a build up of so many things that makes you realize that there needs to be a change in District 2 and the way it’s managed.

I know I have a long tough road ahead but I just can’t sit and watch this shit show anymore….

 

 

Yo Mas & Beckham and our Self Serving City Commissioner.

You All [email protected]#$% up by going after Melreese when you could have had this View from another Local Public Golf Course…

While I am disappointed that the Referendum passed to allow some really big hitters to Rape the public with a Huge No Bide development deal (with a soccer stadium thrown in for shits & giggles) knowing that it will cause all sorts of Hell for the local Neighborhoods, I do hope that when the Lease comes before the Commissioners that at the very least the 2 who opposed the original proposal will live up to their “Quality of Life” positions and Vote No.

That would show some real Cojones by D1 & D4

Sadly we already know how Boy Wonder voted and we know we can’t count on him for any “Quality of Life” issues Unless….they are across the street from him.

For Jorge..

And he handled it like a true Pro.

Poor guy has never done one of these and he gets to the Walkthru and finds this in front of the Building and to top it off….

The boom is right in front of the unit!

Make matters worst?

While doing the walkthru, damn boom is going up and down right in front of balcony.

So what’s a new agent to do?

Lower the blinds and hope no one goes outside!

Gotta Love this GIG…

For those that Voted, Congrats on fulfilling your Civic Duty and by doing so you have earned the right to bitch, moan and complain about stuff that politicians do.

For those who didn’t vote…….Shut up!

Looks like this, it’s going to be a hard busy week!

 

.

So today the Herald endorsed voting yes to the No Bid, Melreese golf course takeover by Mas and some Brit named Beckham and while I am completely against this massive Real Estate deal it does not surprise me that the Herald would cave to any development interest.

I don’t hold the Heralds editorial board in high esteem as I got to see them in action first hand….

True story (and one of my 2 regrets when running for D2 Commissioner)

The Herald requested that all candidates for the commission seat come to their offices for a sit down to answer questions and in truth have a mini debate on positions. When we got there we were taken to a conference room with 3 board members and David Smiley who at the time was the local political reporter.

We sat down and when I looked around I noticed that Ken Russell was not present and I asked “Hey where’s Boy Wonder” and they replied “Oh he could not make it today, so we let him come in yesterday”

AND

Regret 1….. I stayed and debated the 7 other candidates when I should have gotten up and left as the one candidate that I could not call all his bullshit was not there.

AND

Guess who the Herald endorsed?

You guessed it…Boy Wonder.

BTW; there is a lot more to why they endorsed him…and lets just say it was an inside job.

SO..

Take the Heralds endorsement of any Candidate/Amendment/Issue for what its worth “NADA”

Vote No to Melreese, Strong Mayor and just to piss them off…No to the MRC.
