Guess who's buying three more buildings Downtown...UPDATED

Meet her new partners ... Close up here
Welcome to the neighborhood ?

UPDATE: 30 days into the 90 days Due Diligence period ... Nancy Hoffmann is referred to as "the silent equity partner" and no one is supposed to know... The three buildings belonged to Richard Rhynes. He was also the owner of Ms Hoffmann first downtown purchase.

Remind me to tell you a story about how Ms Hoffmann got introduced to all of these wonderful finds... it 's a good one!

Nous n'oublierons jamais!

You saved my birth country, you saved many family members.
Thank You Very Very Much!

Young professionals are learning from the best...

Before I start, keep in mind that Center City park is a PRIVATE park that belongs to two of the WEALTHIEST local foundations...the Bryan Foundation and the Community Foundation.

The previous chart is part of a memo from Action Greensboro's April Harris explaining how she spends our tax payer's monies on this PRIVATE park. 

Not to be left unfed, the ACTION GREENSBORO hogs are also coming to the trough and also takes a management fee out of our money to manage their private park.

$150,000  out of the total $350,000 comes from the BID tax paid for by downtown property owners. 
So DGI pays $150,000 to Action Greensboro who takes out a management fee and in turn pays Grassroots Productions.  

In summary,  Betty Cone allocates our tax money to Action Greensboro who passes same tax money back to Betty Cone's Grassroots Productions...mind you no one knows of Betty Cone's current IRS status and yet she still gets fed...exclusively...with no RFP and no consequences!. 

The Community Foundation is currently also doing some unconventional accounting procedure on behalf of Grassroots productions.  Did I mention that the head of the Community Foundation is also the husband of the Action Greensboro Greenway project manager?
Such incestuous, convoluted relationships are simply not healthy for our city.

I believe it may be time to see how the Downtown Greenway  spends our $6,000,000/mile. How much are we paying in management fees on that one?

These benevolent non profit thieves are now educating the next crop of younger professionals...we must be in good hands.

Upcoming elections, Cronyism, GPAC, Waste management, Corruption, Public Records, Non Profits, Noise, Ruco, Transparency, Accountability, Consequences...

Let's meet, let's talk and let's make a difference ? 

The DGI gods must be angry...

or is it just Milton Kern, and does he speak for DGI as an executive board member? 

I guess we will read about it tomorrow...  Allen Johnson will probably feel like Milton on Viagra.

It may be time for this passé angry old man to retire and purchase a couple of bathtubs facing the ocean.

Side note: Who paid the $1,600 for Milton Kern to travel to Alabama to represent us as one of our "city leaders"? 

Yo! lame N&R editor

Stop deleting Mayoral candidate George Hartzman's comments, or do your job...investigate and prove him wrong once and for all.  

President AND CEO?

We certainly need all the titles  we can get...would the candidate get less respect or be less efficient as a President or director? 

Can't wait to see what magnificent specimen Betty Cone picks for us...

FACT: Edwin used to be very upset if one of the titles were left out of any correspondence...he particularly resented being referred to as DGI's executive director.
