A Letter From The City and Marymount's Response

Click on image to enlarge.

In just about 10 days, the letter above will have been with Dr. Brophy for two months.

Dr. Brophy promised that Marymount would pay all the costs of tomorrow's Special Election for Measure P because for on reason, I pointed out to him that the cost of elections are paid by taxpayers normally.

It seems Dr. Brophy's claim that The Marymount Plan and Measure P would be completed at "no taxpayer expense" is about as honest and forthright as much of the campaign he and his Board of Trustees have been undertaking.

However, in the spirit of openness and honesty, here below, encased in quotation marks is the response to the letter from the City that Marymount has so far, made in the last almost two months:

"

"
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
So, Marymount's response to their claims that they would pay for the election tomorrow as been by ignoring even the letter sent months after Dr. Brophy claimed they would pay.

I think I should now have a contest on this blog to see who can come up with the best excuse Dr. Brophy will use to get out of paying for the election he has so far not provided one penny for and what it appears is going to be a big bill Rancho Palos Verdes taxpayers are going to have to foot.

This is one of my "I told you so" type of things that will happen much more frequently should Measure P pass.

I have been thinking about what promises Marymount representatives have made to residents of Rancho Palos Verdes that they have actually kept.

I know there is already a history of Marymount representatives making promises to residents of San Pedro repeatedly, that they have not kept.

Any real promise that Pacific Heights would be closed if Measure P passes is not something worth the paper and ink it is printed on because there is not one single word on any of the 51 pages of Measure P, The Marymount Plan that mention Pacific Heights and whether it would be sold IF and when on-campus housing opens up on Marymount's campus.

I don't know what better way to end the campaign opposing the construction of student housing on Marymount's campus via Measure P than to have a documented illustration of the facts so dramatically opposed to what comes from the mouth of Dr. Brophy and others representing Marymount College.

If Dr. Brophy, the Board of Trustees, and other representatives and supporters of Marymount College can't even be truthful about the financing of Measure P, why and how could our city's residents trust anything they say?

Please vote "No" on Measure P, The Marymount Plan.

Safety. Everyone. Everywhere. Every hour.
