ARGUS REPORT: HEARD SEEN ON THE STREET
>>> The Miami-Dade County Homeless Trust is bursting at the seams said staff Friday and with two cold weather events The Chapman Partnership is full and Camillus House has had to put clients in the boardroom, said CEO Hilda Hernandez.
The trust is being hammered by recent immigration issues. Further, the second gentleman Douglas Emhoff toured Chapman and said it should be a national model with its continuum of care.Also,housing costs are rising as families are becoming more often with immigrants.
OBITUARY
>>> A GREAT ONE PASSES AT 100, BISHOP DR. WALTER H. RICHARDSON, A GENTLE SOUL,WITH GREAT WISDOM & CHAIRED PHT BOARD,A STEADY HAND AT LEADERSHIP & COMMUNITY TILLER
Dr. Richardson also Chair of the Public Health Trust board was a steady hand on Jackson’s mission of serving the uninsured and poor. I got to know the man during lunch breaks at the trust and he was also on the county’s Community relations Board and was beloved in the community he was pastor at the Liberty City Church for many years and he will be missed.
Dr.Rev. Richardson & PHT chairman
>>> Winner takes all in Miami District 2 seat race, 15 challengers, money PACs media should do background checks on all candidates, Sarnoff working behind scenes to get disgraced judge Martin Zilber elected, who I called Citizen Lite for his behavior and dress at the prestigious Public Health Trust, that oversees JHS the community health jewel, How low will race go with special interests fueling campaigns
The mayor’s muse Leal, (who left the mayor’s office )And he did many proclamations for the mayor. The attorney paid $90,000 is an advisor to Suarez in his national political ambitions and had the mayor on FOX Thursday, carping about the federal response in helping Miami deal with all the refugees and homeless students in the city l taxing the system.
Winner takes all in Miami Commission Special Election Feb.27,behind the scenes highlights the sad state of our local government where corruption to general public is just, the way it is after numerous commissioners were removed from office after being indicted, years ago. With so many candidates someone getting 50 votes could become commissioner and that is scary since a television campaign could be used to achieve that candidate. There is the one Miami PAC Yes for our downtown Miami. with $1.1 million and another has $565,000
The WDR has been critical of Zilber’s temperament and work ethic over the years,(net worth $13 million and years ago and a god father said he has been “oblivious,” all his life) and I know him from the Public Health Trust where one time I got up at 5:30 a.m. to do attendance at the trust and Zilber was chair of purchasing and he strolled in late, a persistent problem that had county commissioner Sally Heyman a family friend criticizing Zilber’s attendance record at the trust. Further, when you apply to the trust you sign a notarized application stating you must resign from being on any county boards. Zilber never did that and stayed on the Cultural Affair board where he reviewed grants to organizations and gave him influence.

Further, His latest misuse of staff for personal items(including his bailiff going to the DMV is shocking). Zilber a republican and had a letter recommendation to the trust from past Gov. Jeb Bush where he told the nominating council “he had the 30-hours of time to commit being a trustee,” which turned out to be untrue.
June Savage could be an interesting candidate knows Miami all her life and is a real estate agent and lives in a condo in District 2,semi grassroot campaign
I also have been in cell contact with June Savage another candidate and she is hitting the streets knocking on doors and I got a campaign piece and is not supported by special interests like Zilber. Uther, here is a national story on the WDR early days:

>>> Past WDR: Cardiac EKG screening should be required by state, number one killer of young athletes in schools, highlighted at school board Wednesday, after Bills player cardiac arrest should ACDs? be included on the field?
Student Athletes dying from sudden cardiac death, was highlighted at Wednesday’s school board meeting. Sudden death is common with athletes and the need for a EKG screening is important. And advocates say screening should be mandatory. And Florida has nine districts that have this screening requirement before entering school. Further, some parents are hesitant to screen, and just have to be notified, said advocates including a girl with an implantable defibrillator.

Note to elected leaders and retention of secret official documents from Donald Trump to now then Vice President Joe Biden what are you thinking and the damage to Biden is hypocrisy after he said over and over, he takes such sensitive documents seriously but that turns out to be different for him versus Trump. At a time Biden heeds the nation to come together. This controversy hurts the nation at a time raising the debt limit is fast approaching and has entrenched political parties.

With new county commissioners and school board members.

Further, when you apply to the trust you sign a notarized application stating you must resign from being on any county boards. Zilber never did that and stayed on the Cultural Affair board. And friends have been covering for his subpar performance over the years culminating in resigning his circuit court judge position after a scathing investigation and abuse of employees for private matters and a scrapbook of his achievements by his judicial assistant. This says Zilber as a commissioner will love the benefits but he has a different moral and ethical compass than I do and I returned his support check years ago because I could see he was going to be a problem.
Further, His latest misuse of staff for personal items(including his bailiff going to the DMV is shocking). Zilber a republican and had a letter recommendation to the trust from past Gov.

>>> Chair Hantman & Perez saying sayonara, after decades helped to stabilize rocky public district plagued by scandals
Two iconic board members are leaving after serving since 1996. Perla Tabares Hantman and Dr. Marta Perez, also an attorney since joining the board and was an advocate for an ethics committee chaired at one time by judge Kogan. She also pushed for the inspector general at the district. Hantman the chair most of her years was calm did things by the book after scandals rocked the district. Further, there was a state oversight board. Both women were very supportive of the WDR over the years, and they will be missed on the nine-member school board.
Retired Florida Supreme Court Judge Gerald Kogan was honored posthumously by the school board Wednesday. The jurist was the point of the spear after the Miami-Dade Chamber created the Alliance for ethical government after scandals and arrests at the county and bogus land deals at the public district, where matchbox degrees were prevalent, and the community outrage was palpable and confidence in government was abysmal. Editor’s note: I was at many meetings with Kogan, and he helped convince me that I should keep at my efforts and had a card, which read “Citizen Advocate for Ethical Government.”

>>> No commission meeting dec.8, as Dist.1 commissioner Ken Russell is denied his last commission meeting in office and could not get the support of two commissioners Joe Carollo and Alex Diaz de la Portilla, both republicans and have opposed Russell a democrat at every turn. I asked the commissioner why no meeting and he said, “petty politics.” The commissioner who ran for various offices from the senate and house has been vulnerable to Miami politics and he must resign Jan.3., please don’t replace with disgraced former judge Zilber, abused judicial staff personal errands
Could the commission appoint his seat? done many times in the past and saving some $350,000 in election costs with the county?
Yes, and many names are mentioned but one scares me former county judge Martin Zilber, who is a republican and lives in the south Grove. He resigned in disgraced after abusing a employee and having them do personnel errands. I knew the Republican justice from the public health trust, where he was always late and dressed like just off the beach, forget socks. At the time I dubbed him ‘citizen lite.’ And his mother Linda Zilber is a solid transportation maven on many boards. Attorney Zilber is known to the commissioners since he submitted a letter from former Gov. Jeb Bush supporting his appointment to the Jackson Trust. However, his appointment would be a real mistake since he doesn’t work hard but would enjoy having a police officer watching over him.

>>> Will Commissioner Ken Russell, be allowed to have last meeting in December as two commissioners say no? clerk working to get it on, Reyes in, Chair King unknown
The cancellation of Decembers commission meeting had leaving commissioner Ken Russell walk off the dais since his last meeting in December was being cancelled because commissioners Joe Carollo, and Alex Diaz de la Portilla, wanted to spend time with family over the holidays a first. Russell is trying to get three commissioners to agree to have the December meeting that commissioner Manolo Reyes has agreed to and just chair Christine King must agree. Russell has projects he wants to finish before leaving the body and the commissioners who often take shots at Russell

>>>And having a member of the press at public meetings gives teeth to the Florida Sunshine Law (and why you get a Flu Shot) and open meetings tape recorded keeps good governance in place and reduces waste fraud and abuse, and public corruption, and is why you don’t speed in front of a state trooper for example. And hope you can support the WDR efforts to have informed residents to public institutions issues, in our community.
>>> Further the www.watchdogreport.net in South Florida is an established news service presence, because most people are too busy to go to these important meetings., and all the information comes through me as a central point allowing me to see things at a 100-mile altitude and being an early warning system when projects have overruns or other issues. But my job is to sound the alarm and I have done so many times over the past years in a host of ways.
