Wheeling and dealing - crooks calling themselves
consultants - embedded within these walls -
525 Golden Gate Avenue - San Francisco.
The San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC) is a den of thieves - the consultants - embedded at 525 Golden Gate Avenue - led by evil folks like Juliet Ellis and Ivy Fine - will now be exposed for all that has been on going wheeling and dealing - we have the empirical data - and need some - be it 10% of the document requested under Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) - to reveal the Truth.
Remember we all have to speak Truth to Power.
The SF Public Utilities Commission - an Enterprise Department formed by a former thug Mayor Willie L. Brown Jr. in 1996.
The most corrupt have been embedded at 525 Golden Gate Avenue - the decent SFPUC employees are fed up - many have left and provided me with sound information.
Thousands of dollars wastes on crap -
such as the slogan above - another one -
" your number two in our number one ".
Suffice to say - when some years ago Juliet Ellis - now Assistant General Manager for External Affairs - funneled over $200,000 to her former non-profit - Green For All - in the East Bay.
We all were aghast - but not me. I had been attending hundreds of meetings - watched the witch who dwells in the evil hall ways of 525 Golden Gate Avenue and before that 1155 Market Street - wheeling and dealing.
1800 Oakdale Avenue -
the Southeast Community Facility Commission Building.
The SF Public Utilities Commission who took over 1800 Oakdale - the Southeast Community Facility Commission Building - in 1996.
It now wants to demolish the building and build a brand new office building to accommodate the evil functions of the SF Public Utilities Commission - raking in millions on the backs of the poor and indigent - more adversely impacting the Bayview Hunters Point - area.
There is a God watching all the nonsense and evil going on.
Check out this video - it lays the scene open for all of us to see - nothing much has changed:

The Phelps Raw Sewage Treatment plant - was upgraded as a result of some hard fought mitigation measures - Bayview Hunters Point advocates taking on the Bay Area - Regional Water Board and mitigation orders - endorsed in the 1960s and 1970s by the then SF Broad of Supervisors, the then City Administrator Roger Boas, the then Mayor - but most of all the astute advocates of the Bayview Hunters Point.
The result the Southeast Community Facility Commission Building Commission was formed - the only one of its kind in San Francisco. It still operates be it that its powers are curtailed and often time - it acts like an entity - that rubber stamps.
The advocates of that time - contributed to to the City and County of San Francisco and left a legacy - the Bayview Co-Ordinating Council - from the Bayview Hunters Point organized and formed the first Human Rights Committee.
It fought for equity and equality - which led to the Automobile Industry not only to sell fancy cars to the Blacks - but now for the first time to hire Black sale persons and more.
It was the same with the MELS Drive-ins that hired Black chefs, waiters - and for the first time.
San Francisco understood they were playing an important role - much before the Civil Rights Movement that Dr Martin Luther King Jr. led, fought and ultimately laid his life in the late 1960s.
The SF General Hospital was upgraded in the 1960s - a brand new hospital built by monies brought in through the advocacy of the Bayview advocates Model Cities. Also, the neighborhood clinics the Southeast Clinic, the one on Potrero Hill, the one at South of Market for example.
The same stellar and astute advocates helped bring in millions - visiting Washington DC - Five power women - to build brand new affordable housing on the Hill - at Hunters Point.
As I said - mostly women who had the valor and more the wisdom with their heart in the right place - at that time.
Today we have sell outs - the liked of Shaman Walton who is raking in millions - pandering to the Developers - and he better apologize to the community - for turning back the Propositions we advocates fought for - on height limit at Candlestick Point - and the entire 7.5. miles from Lower Fort Mason all the way closer to Pier 98 - which is now Heron's Head Park.
It is important to state clearly at this juncture - that in the 1960s the advocates fought for mitigation measures - and were promised millions. That fight was a hard fought fight - all documented - we have the documents - and the empirical data - matters.
Those monies that have not been given to benefit the Bayview Community has compounded and is over $2 Billion.
I mentioned this at the last meeting where the General Manager Harlan Kelly was spinning some yarns - and brought with him some young woman who loudly proclaimed our sewer and clean drinking rates - would go up - this year some - more next year - and over 40% in 2019 and 2020.
The Kellys both Naomi Kelly the City Administrator and Harlan Kelly have chosen to work for the Machine. As I said 525 Golden Gate Avenue is a bed of thieves.
Where wheeling and dealing goes - folks like Susan Leal a former General Manager acts as a consultant for AECOM, Dwayne Jones debarred and black listed - caught red handed - on a bid that a decent contractor won - linked to the SF Housing Authority - the bid was put to bid again only for Dwayne Jones and Linda Richardson - to win.
The matter was taken to Court - and the decent contractor - won - and the rest is history.
Dwayne Jones the owner of RDJ a know entity that acts as a consultant and rakes in millions.
Dwayne Jones came into the community in the late 1990s and embedded himself at Young Community Developers - audits done by the SF Controllers Office - which we can publish - will show the reader - the blatant corruption going on at Young Community Developers (YCD).
YCD brags it does training and highlights that it is about Work Force - its track record is pathetic - with few career jobs - and has a track record - putting our youth in harms way - more at Hunters Point Naval Shipyard - and programs touted as Hazmat - where our youth are trained poorly to do Asbestos abatement and Lead abatement - and then coming down with all sorts of " respiratory diseases ".
The Bayview Opera House is now being used for economic development - is come under the San Francisco Administrative Code section 12L.
Among other pertinent factors - 12L subsection 5 requires nonprofits with gross earnings in excess of $250,000 to be audited by the SF Controller and that has not happened in years of operation - with Director Barbara Ockel at the helm of affairs.
Barbara Ockel - acting as the Executive Director of the SF Bayview Opera House - a White woman pretending to understand Black culture.
The SF Bayview Opera House named after Ruth Williams - who directed over 37 plays one of kind - and trained actors - well known and respected the world over - on of them the famous Danny Glover and others.
Let us take some precious time to listen to the advocates of that time - one of them Mrs Ruth Williams -please pay attention to her words - they are very pertinent and to the point :

Recently we were forced to go before the SF Sunshine Task Force - representing the people the community of the Bayview Hunters Point area - who have been discriminated and abused.
When a Black woman requested Barbara Ockel to rent the SF Bayview Opera House - Barbara Ockel said to this Black woman: " we do not rent the Bayview Opera House to goons and animals ".
Using Guide Star we accessed the IRS 990 forms - and were shocked how the Bayview Opera has access to millions of dollars - but significantly little was done at the SF Bayview Opera House. For sure a double gate was built - reminiscent of San Quentin a famous jail :
The Bayview Opera House -
has this double gate - that debars entry -
and send a message to divisiveness -
we have a Neo-Nazi in charge of the operations -
how much of this nonsense can we endure?
Over $5.6 million - grant money was given to the SF Bayview Opera House Board of Directors.
We went before the SF Sunshine Task Force - representing the community of the Bayview Hunters Point area - and found that of the 5.6 million the SF Bayview Opera House could account only for $2.2 million.
Where is the rest of the money?
The SF Bayview has chosen to amend its status from a Public Benefit Corporation to a Business Corporation, (cultivation of the arts to Economic Development ) wherein taxes became due payable to the City and County of San Francisco from the new designation.
The SF Treasure Jose Cisneros is looking into this matter - surely he can step up and do the right thing.
It took us 7 and 1/2 months at the SF Sunshine Task Force - to reach a verdict - an unanimous vote - that called upon the SF Bayview Opera House to account for the missing money - more under mandates of sound accounting and transparency.
Under the San Francisco Administrative Code section 12L - under which the SF Bayview Opera must adhere to the rules and regulations -which it has not - it keeps hoodwinking the public at large - in broad daylight.
The Bayview Hunters Point has long been known for outsiders the likes of Dwayne Jones, Walton Shaman and others - to come into our community - and pander to entities like Lennar Urban, other Big Developers to foster abject - gentrification - while filling their own pockets.
We have approached the SF Controller's Office and provided that office with a sound outline of the corruption going on at the SF Bayview Opera House.
We are awaiting for some documents to check with the empirical data we have - to sync information to deal with the wheeling and dealing at the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission - and feel confident that many will be exposed - sooner than later.
The Bayview Hunters Point constituents - more tax payers - have over $2 Billion mitigation money coming to them - we could secede and create an added burden to the SF City and County of San Francisco.
We plan to initiate a Proposition - a citywide Ballot - so that the tax payers can vote and hopefully bring " restitution " - to the Bayview Hunters Point community - that has suffered immensely at the hand of the SF Public Utilities Commission - its manager each making over $250,000 a year plus benefits.
Who is fooling whom - and for how long can this nonsense go on.
We could ask for a speedy adjudication and jail time - and send some culprits raking in millions - paying no attention to the poor - to spend time to contemplate their sordid ways.
Culprits who foster " divisiveness " - while the SF City and County brags it is for accountability and transparency - while all the time - fostering ploys, machinations and the worst type of shenanigans.
Power to the People
We the people - united - will never, ever be defeated.
