Some Don't Get It

 Some people feel entitled to the point they completely disregard human decency.  The Windcrest City Council approved changes to the sign ordinance, which includes elections signs.  The ordinance dictates where political signs can be displayed on city property and also moved the Candidates Election Tents at Takas Park further down the parking lot.

 Last year the same individual parked two vehicles, plus two tent which took up 4 voter parking spaces.  The ordinance really did need changing, however, council overlooked the loop holes that the entitled seek.  Complain and he would probably say, you'r a nay say'r, or worse.

  If you voted at Takas already you probably noticed this huge black truck taking up a handicapped parking space while the owner is sitting in a chair near by trying to convince Windcrest citizens to Vote for him.  That's like saying, "I don't follow the intent of Ordinances, or even, hey, I'm entitled.

Council should write a book, "Sign Ordinances for Dummies."

 

Where is WEDC?

 Yesterday Windcrest residents received a vote Gerd Jacobi, McFall and Shelton post card in their mailboxes.
  "Worked with our Economy and our resources to grow revenue, attract new businesses and support our economy to ensure Windcrest stays Strong."
 
  Note, three business have been courted by San Antonio to leave Windcrest in just the past month.

What is Jacobi and Shelton doing about these departures?  Council made no mention of the Immigration offices being relocated out of Windcrest,  The Express news story of Oct 19, 2016 ran the obscure story and did not even mention Windcrest, but the address was listed.  8940 Four-winds drive, which is Windcrest.
 

Immigration office to relocate

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, the agency that oversees legal immigration to the United States, is moving its San Antonio offices to the far North Side.

On Thursday, USCIS will close its offices at 8940 Four-winds Drive, off Loop 410 and Interstate 35 North. The new offices at 20760 N. U.S. 281, at Evans Road, will open Nov. 1.

USCIS handles applications for lawful permanent residency as well as citizenship through naturalization and deferred action.

Those in need of emergency immigration services during the move can contact USCIS at 800-375-5283, the agency said in a news release.

  Last month the City of San Antonio Economic development corp enticed a former Rackspace unit purchased by Liquid Web to move to downtown San Antonio and provided $375,000 incentive package for the move.

 Next San Antonio announced a "Startup" started by a few Rackspace employees was also enticed to move to downtown San Antonio and offered some $100,000 incentive for the move. 

 Meanwhile the Windcrest Economic Development Corporation board is busy discussing the Private Windcrest Golf Course and probably discussing the next trip to Las Vegas.  

  The single most important program for an Economic Development Corporations is the BR&E Program.  Business Retention and Expansion Programs focuses on the retention and expansion of local businesses. Windcrest does not have a viable BR&E program, why NOT?

  The Windcrest EDC has spoken many time of implementing a BR&E program within Windcrest, but always saying "We are GOING to...."  Never, we ARE.  Now San Antonio comes along and sweeps businesses away, while the Windcrest WEDC is off in Las Vegas. 

  Jacobi, Shelton and McFall appointed the current WEDC board members and you can see first hand the results of those appointments.  Council needs to replace the WEDC entire board and appoint a board that works with Windcrest businesses to keep them in Windcrest.  

 VOTE Archuleta, Pedrotti and Dodson and VOTE NOT to the recall of Wright.  

Snakes of Windcrest!

The below two posts are a must read!

  The Snakes within the City of Windcrest Administration are at it once again.  An Elected official slithers about with the City Attorney and others to launch  recall petition of a council person.

 This is a quote from ConcernedCitizen.blogspot.com   "The emails included in the post below were exchanged several days BEFORE the petition was filed.   The emails show the Windcrest City Attorney and Windcrest Mayor Baxter CONSPIRED against Council person Kimberly Wright!

 Also notice Mayor Baxter is not identified on the Petition.  It's very clear that Mayor Baxter
master mined the petition, then had others do his nasty deed.

  Why is the Windcrest City Attorney giving Recall Petition advice on a sitting Council Person???

 Folks, these emails prove, without a doubt,  Windcrest Administration CORRUPT.

Fire the City Attorney and Remove Mayor Baxter now!!

Jacobi, McFall and Shelton are supporting this Snake Activity, 

Do Not Vote for these three.

Citizens Will Never Know

  Did you catch the city council budget meeting where Jim Shelton expressed his version of Transparency?  Jim Shelton was lobbying to exclude the budget requirement of having a severance package added to the budget.  Below is the video recording from city hall.  Jim Shelton wants to omit the severance (some $80,000) from the budget as required by Ordinance.  Says you will never know..
By the way, Jim Shelton made the motion to change the CM Severance package from 4 months to the current 6 months.  Now he wants that info omitted from the budget.
