Ex-U-T reporter Lisa Petrillo joins Mara Elliott staff
According to the Transparent California website, Maureen Magee, Communications Director at SDUSD, total pay and benefits in 2018, the newest record available, was $174,262.00. Barely scraping by when comparing salaries with Braun.— December 6, 2019 9:07 a.m.
Faulconer staff churning
> **Alex Clarke said....** “Political aids and staffers move from politician to politician or to some PAC or political consultant firm like rats leaving a sinking ship. Faulconer will be relegated to the dust bin of has-been politicians.” Can’t come soon enough!— November 28, 2019 4:03 p.m.
Fortistar helps Faulconer charity
Faulconer just another gasbag do nothing but line his own pockets politician. Let’s see if his so called non-profit still receives all of these “connected” contributions after he is no longer an elected official and no longer wields power.— November 6, 2019 1:05 p.m.
San Diego retirement system man on the go
Wait a second...SDCERS has attorneys on staff. Are you saying none of them can follow the rules? According to their Board of Administration agendas there are what seems to be endless training opportunities for staff and Board members too. Is there a formal position at SDCERS of “compliance officer”. With all of that, necessary disclosure are filed more than a year late???? While the current CEO GREGG RADEMACHER is relatively NEW at SDCERS he is an experienced Pension system CEO having held the same Position at the City of Los Angeles. Mr. Rademacher its time to show us you’re not willing to allow any malfeasance WHATSOEVER. The City and SDCERS CANNOT fall back into old habits ....many that led to the failures of the past 20 years and the under funded system.— October 30, 2019 6:58 p.m.
Ocean Beach locals escort bully out of town
Ahhhh OB, uncivilized as ever, seems untamable too. Want the cops, don’t want the cops. A schizophrenic community where some have decided to take the law into their own hands because they’ve decided ***they know what’s best***. I’m just wondering if OB will ever change for the betterment of its residents.— September 24, 2019 6:42 a.m.
No-name no-bid contract cost San Diego millions, city auditor charges
Wow....this sounds very close to the creation of the “San Diego Data Processing Corporation” (SDDPC) during the Pete Wilson Mayoral era. During successor Administrations lot and lots of money was laundered though SDDPC to hide unaffiliated and wasteful spending by corrupt city officials. I’m just wondering if some of those same practices have re-emerged all these years later. Or worse, some of the officials, bureaucrats or outside well connected players are back for a second “byte” (pardon the pun) at the data processing apple. You see without institutional memory, AND a wary watchdog over the City, it’s always the taxpayers left holding the debt while corrupt processes reward those who know how to exploit the taxpayer’s treasure.— September 13, 2019 5:59 a.m.
Kaiser to face largest strike anywhere in 20 years

San Diego Unified paid $400k for claim against Lincoln High coach
To answer Judy Neufeld-Fernandez question regarding settlement of a civil matter and getting a conviction in a criminal case. There are two completely different standard in reaching a decision. The civil matter, a mere preponderance while the criminal case requires proof beyond a reasonable doubt. In other words, civil do you think he did it maybe. Criminal I have little or no doubt whatsoever ....he did it. AND all twelve jurors must agree.— July 23, 2019 10:32 p.m.
