BOARDMEMBER COMMENTS
n
Chairman Buckley referred to the Notice of Intention that was earlier presented to
the City Council indicating that the entire Redevelopment Agency voted to
purchase the Linchpin property for downtown redevelopment. Although the
proponents' time and dollar amounts are not clear, the Redevelopment Agency
did try to purchase the property earlier and cheaper. He expressed his opinion
that the people of lake Elsinore know the accusations are false, misleading,
malicious and destructive. The people of Lake Elsinore know why this entire
episode is being brought forward which is the person behind the effort would
rather spend his money on lawyers and politics than making sure he is providing
a safe environment at his place of business -- the people of Lake Elsinore know
this, they know my record and I will fight the recall and succeed.
