Wendy Greuel

Some of the many reasons why you should NOT vote for Wendy Greuel:

Voted Yes on the Trash Tax - Yes, your tax fees tripled because of her. With those funds we were to receive 1000 police officers. We did not. They have only hired about 360. Where's the rest of our police officers?

Prop S - This proposition added a 9 % tax rate on phone and internet services. City Council fooled people in L.A. into thinking that it was a tax decrease. It was not. And then they spent $5 million of our tax dollars to put it on the ballot. Wendy Greuel adopted the motion and voted yes to put this deceptive proposition on the ballot. FYI - If it was a tax decrease it does not have to be on a ballot for a vote. They can just decrease the tax. If its a tax increase it has to be on the ballot.

Voted Yes for a $3 million dollar exhibit at the L.A. Zoo to house 3 monkeys + $4500 for the Feng Shui consultant! How many of us have a $3 million home?

Prop B - She is a sponsor of Prop B. She's trying to hoodwink you into voting for it by repeating the word "green" over and over again. Be smarter than that. Prop B will just raise your DWP rates and give the DWP a monopoly on Solar energy. Hummm.... I wonder who's contributing to Wendy Greuel's campaign?

She is a close friend of Mayor Villaraigosa. This is bad, very bad for us. That means if Antonio stays in office there will be no checks and balances. And checks and balances is why the City Controller is an elected official.

Wendy Greuel is the vice chair of the budget committee. We have a $400 million deficit, even though we have record revenues coming into the city of $7 billion dollars a year. Where were the warnings from her about over spending? And why was she contributing to the wasteful spending?

Wendy Greuel would be a disaster in the City Controller's office. She is fiscally irresponsible and would be nothing like Laura Chick.

Vote for an experienced, common sense Controller who loves this city!

Kathleen "Suzy" Evans for Controller
