What can we say about Greg Neitzert’s impassioned plea on August 2, 2016 to overturn the mayor’s veto of July 27, 2016 other than it was amazing.
The Romantix Annex Overflow Office Building does not need to be built.
Consider this: Building new is most expensive option. Just ask Director Turbak (Info Meeting 2/23/2016) – “If you’re looking and hinging a decision on is it going to pencil out a net savings to the city, I think clearly it’s not if we have a new buildingâ€
Listen to Greg’s plea and them consider as a few who left the meeting on that Tuesday evening asking us why no one else has ever laid out this information before.
We have tried, but Greg did it. As he tells us, get a petition, sign a petition and help kill this building.
The applause after shows profound sentiment. I honestly believe 9 out of 10 citizens oppose this city luxury. Greg is right, with present debt, an empty building is just plain ignorant. Emperor Mike wants another kickback before the end of his political career. Give us a chance to vote on this. Prove us wrong.
“Mike wants another kickback before the end of his political career.”
That is what baffles me about his push to get this building done, it is one thing to have such a big ego and arrogance to ‘not lose’ on this issue, but why else would he be so hell bent on getting this done? It seems odd that you would be pushing for a new building to help morale of city employees while handing out NO raises to most employees in 2017. Remember the mayor said that the operations budget would remain flat (salaries). If you asked any city employee if they would prefer a new building that only benefits 60 city employees or a raise, I can tell you what the response would be. There HAS to be some kind of kickback here for the mayor, or some inside deal. This whole thing stinks.
How about a resolution to build Huether a pyramid instead? No maintenance. Skateboarders would love it. We can say the 3 ancient aliens on the council built it. A few sci-fi conventions could pay for it. It would be a place for some of the public comment weirdos to dance and chant around.
Hat’s off to Greg! Well articulated speech that put’s the truth where it belongs. I have to say that this is a case of legitimacy. As Greg said, there is none. Further more, the fact that mmm doesn’t see the light, is just plain pitiful. SF is in for some real serious issues if we don’t get this under control! We’re going to see some real beach front taxing with out the water here soon. Good Day
Amazing bit of facts here. This guy really gets it and is connecting with the voters. I see big things ahead for Greg should he choose to stay in the political arena. How can the other councilors sit and listen to these facts and still support a new castle of unused space.
