..Business as usual??
Roger was warned of retaliation. But his response is open, honest, and he stipulated.
Who is real estate Complainant? his connections, spurts in sales volumes B4 elections, willingness to cast aspersion upon a novice politician -- years later -- because Roger challenged members with over 100 years in their chairs. If complainant worked with Roger, why didn't he guide him instead of filing complaint later.
Read Complaint and responses.
Ask City for Roger's 2014 filings which the City maintained.
This is a novice politician. Didn't Complainant wait years before filing complaint when Roger was doing well, then won, with FPA south of 50 unbuilt?
Why did FPPC impose a huge fine, uncharacteristic of such mistakes in timely filing by a novice fighting a huge, entrenched machine?
Roger stipulated -- indicates he has no intent to deceive. Why punish him when four council candidates served over 100 years, so residents forgot what open elections look like? What current state administration wishes to do to him could easily be done to any of us.
Hearing Thursday Feb. 16, 2017, 1:00 pm, 428 J St., FPPC has a hearing to consider imposing such an out-of-line fine.
