Sacramento citizens gathered, at the South Natomas Community Center, to oppose the proposed costly mayoral power grab.

Conversation about: Anaheim approves $75 million in bonds for Kings, Honda Center
Where is the real incentive for the Kings to move to Anaheim? If they move, they will receive $50 million from Anaheim, but they have to repay $70 million to Sacramento. They lose $20 million. Sacramento is busy with plans to build a new arena complex. Anaheim wants to lock the Kings into a 15 year contract with an arena that is already 18 years old! This looks like a goofy business deal for the Maloofs.

Conversation about: Should city set up a whistle-blower hotline?
I am glad to see some progress being made on this issue. The water funds, for example, are so complicated that the average citizen has a very difficult time doing their own auditing. As an average citizen, that was my circumstance.

Conversation about: Should city set up a whistle-blower hotline?
Please file this memo on the City Hall Whistle-Blower Hotline when it is up and running: "Hey, someone is trying to give Cal Expo to greedy land developers who want to tear it down and build glamorous river front properties. In exchange, we will get our downtown train station refurbished. This will include a brand new basketball arena. I guess people who ride public transportation are big basketball fans? Oh, and if we want a new Cal Expo we get to convert a broken down basketball arena in Natomas!" I'm not kidding! No madam, this is not some wild conspiracy theory!
