Honest Probe?
Ha Ha Ha Ha
o
By Don Bauder
A beggar comes to the door and asks for
food. The housewife says he can have
dinner ifhe will whitewash the porch. Ten
mer Copley Press official Herb
Klein, pointed out that when
Sanders took office last year,
he had noted that govern-
ment had become a "corrupt
impediment to jJre>gre<;" under
minutes later he is back, claim-
ing the job is done. The house-
wife is incredulous. "I co\'-
ered every inch with thick
white pamt," he boasts. "But
it isn't a Pe,rsche. It's a Mer-
cedes- Benz."
A similarly blunderheaded
whitcwash attempt kgoing
on in San Diego. The city haJJ
gang that can't shoot straight
is t.ryjng to ;)u11 off a white-
wash with purple paint. Just
wait until Ja) Lena and David
Letterman gtt wind of this.
The Sanders administration,
with the enthusiastic back-
, ing of the Union- Tribune, is
trying to briT,s back the Seeli-
tion Act of 1798. That act
made it illegJ.! to "write, print,
utter, Or pub!ish" anything
critical of the president or
Congress. You couJd go to jail
for two years for casting asper-
sions on a p:lblic official.
Underst4ndabi I; people raised
hell, and the ad was gone in
three years.
Now Sanders and his min-
-<. ions Want to bring it back.. In

fund-raiser for him. Sanders
allowed Sunroad to OOllStruct
a bUilding in defiance of fed-
eral and state flight-safety
regulations. Then, noted
Aguirre - again, accurately_
Sanders borrowed an official
iTom the San Diego County
Regional Airport Authority
to lobby the federal govern-
ment to .change flight pat-
terns near Montgomery Field,
so Sunroad oould keep its ille-
gal building.
Then the comedy really
got going. Sanders, inelignant
that anybodywould write a let _
ter critioal of him, caJ1ed upon

<
Bonnie Dumanis ([eft), Jerry Sanda~ (middle)
his predecessors. Sanders had
promised to "tell the whole
truth." But now, Aguirre wrote
accurately, Sanders has been
engaging in an "embarrass_
ing and corrupt COurse of
action" by doing a multimil-
lion-dollar favor for a cam-
paign contributor - Aaron
Feldman, owner of Sunroad,
who not only gave the mayor

Honest
probe
continuedjrompIJge6
j:
Governor Moonbeam -and
requested an investigation
into the charges in the June 15
letter. "Because of the serious
nature of these allegations, it
is necessary that a fully inde-
pendent and skilled agency
[italics mine} such as theAttor-
ney General's Office look into
these charges," wrote a sup-
posedly wounded mayor.
Remember those words:
a fully independent and skilled
agency.
Almost immediately, ODe
Dane R. Gillette, chief assis-
tant attorney general, came
right back - in time for a
quickie press conference -
and stated, "In light of the
serious allegations and the
importance of maintaining
public confidence in its elected
officials, the Attorney Genera1's
office will, as you requested,
investigate the charges of pub-
lic corruption." (Just try get-
ting a lightning-fast response
to your request to the attor-
neygeneral.) Gillette said he
would turn the matter over
to the attorney general's San
Diego office.
Now, ,..,'ho is Dane R.
Gillette? Well, back in March,
the chief of police, William
Lansdovvne, rebst:d to carry
out a judge-approved search
warrant of a SW1road uffi.;ial,
Lansdo\,:ne's refusal- which
now should be investigated
thoroughly, given Sanders's
admissions about Sun road's
dubious d1aracter - V.'35 pub-
lidy supported by none other
than Dane R. Gillette of the
attorney general's office.
Hmmm.
And the attorney generaJ's
,;::;,.:~' ,,, ;:;::~;; t,- :::J,-, :~:'. ;:--.'1.:.

I-
'r,~""
pendent in\'~1:igarion? Come
now. In an editorial June 22,
CITY LIGHTS
t'le day after Sanders's letter,
the Union- Tribune opined
rapturously that "an inde-
pendent probe" by the attor-
ney general's office "will
demonstrate Aguirre's claims
to be utterly baseless."
Folks, there ain't gonna be
no independent probe. This
whole thing was rigged quickly
for Sanders, and the results
of any so-called probe were
transparently foreordained,
San Diego style. That's why
the U- T so confidently pre-
dicted that Sanders would be
exonerated and Aguirre
anathematized.
To make things even more
hilarious, when he announced
that he was contacting the
attorney general's office,
Sanders was flanked by local
law enforcement officials such
as District Attorney BOD.11ie
Durnanis, Sheriff Bill Kolen-
der, and Lansdowne, as if their
presence somehow imparted
a divine spark of public virtue.
Quite the contrary. Kolender
and Dumanis, both in the
pocket of the establishment,
supported Lansdowne's refusal
to carry out the search war-
rant in the Sunroad case,
among many other dubious
things. That photo of fonner
and present law enforcement
officials standing by Sanders
may go down as visual proof
of San Diego's essential
corruption.
It's remini"L"11t of Sanders's
admis3ion in mid~Maythat the
Sunroad deai had been
botched. He said he would
put his key aide, Ronne ho-
man, in chargt: of ~Ul hUilLst
investigation that would be
romptctL-d in a ft"\';' short weeks.
People hootL.-d. Froman inves-
tigating her boss? In bs than
a month, Froman had
:1Tlnn~11lc('d her reSi\!11ation.
Q)rruption is defined as "lack
of integrity or honesty:' Paul
Spiegelman, adjunct profes-
sor of law at Thomas Jeffer-
son School of Law, says,
"Sanders is following a strat~
egy of trying to distract from
the fact that he has made false
statements, deceived, and
engaged in backroom deal ~
ings by trying to reframe the
issue as to whether he has
done anything criminal."
Aguirre did not charge Sanders
with criminality in his letter,
whichSpiegelrnan calls a "mea-
sured statement," given
Sanders's double-dealing pro-
clivities. Sanders was "delib-
erately misleading" by stat-
ing that he would require Sun-
road to lower its building by
20 feet, but four days later Ted
Sexton, whom he had bor~
rowed. from the airport author~
ity, was lobbying the Federal
Aviation Administration to
change flight paths at Mont-
gomery Field so the building
could remain, notes Spiegel-
man, who has run up against
Sanders's spinmeisters in other
conte2...l.S. Then Sanders lied
on June 7 when he denied
Sexton was detailed to the
City to handle Sunroad issues
when it was dear he was.
"1 find it bizarre and totally
unprofessional for the dis-
trict attorney, chief of police,
and other officials who pur~
port t<.) bc in lavv enforcement
to appear at Sanders's press
conference and vouch for a
man who has blatantly
deceived the public," says
Spiegelman, adding, "It appears
that the state attorney gen-
eral is allowing itself to be
used to help r!"ovide po!iticaJ
cover to Sanders."
San Diego attorney Stan
Zubel recalls listening to a
public radio roundtable in
which Sanders apologists were
~J~;ng the filayor was guilty
01 favoritism but not cor~
ruptJGn. "Our culture in San
CITY LIGHTS
Diego is one that rewards
friendships and relationships
to such an extreme that we
have lost our ethical com-
pass," Zubel says. When
announcing his letter to the
attorney general, Sanders
"lined up airninal justice peo-
ple; in their eyes nothing is
corrupt unless something that
is criminaJ has been done. k
long as you haven't commit-
ted a crime, everything is fine.
They have lost sight of the
fact that when you favor your
friends - if you would not
have done it for the other guy
on the street - then you have
corrupted democracy. in San
Diego, these people don't
understand the political, eth-
ical, moral impact of what
they have done. They have
been favoring their friends 50
long it has become part of the
culture."
Actually, there is lots to
investigate. ExactIywhat tran-
spired in the meetings between
Sanders and Feldman that led
to the City letting Sunroad
off the hook? Did anyone take
notes? VVhat happened inside
Sunroad and inside the City
l,vhen the company promised
to build the structure to 160
feet, then went ahead and built
it to 180 feet' Who leaked the
contents of the search war-
rant to Sunroad? In J Jan-
uary 19 letter to the City, the
California Department of
Transportation said that in
permitting Sunroad to fin-
ish the building "under the
pretense of wt:ather proof~
ing,"San Diego was attempt-
ing to "undermine state law."
After receiving that letter,
why did the Sanders team
continue its quest to help
Sunroad evade the law? If
you believe the attorney gen-
era! ",,-ill hone..'Itly look at such

The City Council
City of Chula Vista
Dear Sir:
This is to reiterate our request for help to remove the tree in front of our house at'"
~Chu1a Vista. CA 91910. According to Mr. Tom Levesque, the Arborist,
o~l can decide on"Mit~st, hence this letter. Based on the map as shown
in our deed, the tree falls within the city's easement/responsibility.
Earlier a letter and pictures were submitted to Mr. Tom Levesque, copy attached. He
did a visual inspection and concluded immediately that the damage was not caused by the
tree. He recommended that a barrier be installed on the east side and west side ofthe tree
to stop the roots from growing towards the foundation of the house and the garage.
Why is he recommending a barrier if he believes that the roots did not cause the cracks
in the front of the garage, fence, courtyard, cement floor of the house and our bathroom.
We also believe that if you cut the big roots growing towards the foundation of the house
and the front of the garage, the tree will become unstable and might fall on somebody or
on a car that is usually parked under the tree.
Per our conversation with our neighbor, a few years back, their sewer pipes were broken
and the city found out that they were caused by the same kind oftree in their front yard
and the tree was removed. We would like a second opinion and a more thorough
evaluation of the problem because it is very clear from all indications that the tree is
causing the damages shown in the pictures to our property. This should stop right away
as this is causing us a lot of stress.
We went to Mr. Levesque's Office for a fair and unbiased evaluation of our problem but
we were not satisfied with the way he handled our request. We feel that before he even
conducted a thorough inspection, he already had a recommendation -- to preserve the
tree and install a barrier. We indicated to him that we are retired and can no longer keep
up with the cost of maintaining repairs and replacements of damages on the property.
The roots are protruding all over the place and we complained about not being able to
mow the front yard because ofthe roots and he said that he will have the roots trimmed
but that we have to put a new sod and plant grass if we like, because the City is not going
to do anything about it and we believe this is unfair.. That's precisely the reason we want
the tree cut down to prevent future damage and expense.
Mr Levesque told us that rules and regulations of the council about trees planted by the
city be followed and that he can not do anything about it, hence this letter. We are
therefore presenting this letter to the conncil to evaluate the problem thoroughly and
help us. If the trees are to be preserved by all means, then please assure us that all future
damage i.e. crack slab caused by the tree be paid for by the City as we can no longer
afford the up keep. Right now we are only asking the City to remove the tree right away
to prevent further damage to our property. Weare not asking for any repair for damages
the tree has caused. Ifthere is somebody in your office looking after these trees, there
should also be somebody who should be looking after the welfare of residents and
taxpayers ofChula Vista like us.
Your immediate attention to this request is expected.
Sincerely yours,
<-
