Windcrest Lawsuit(s)?



 Many Windcrest Citizens have been approached by visitors seeking signatures for a Recall Petition.  A $1,000,000 lawsuit is mentioned as well as legal fees.    On January 22nd, 2018  Mr. Busby made a presentation on the Springbrook Senior Living Project to city council, and introduced Robert Colunga as his assistant.  Mr. Busby also strongly cautioned council,  saying his investors did not like political 'noise,' they liked it quiet.     
   
  Mr. Colunga completely disregarded that warning and filed a law suit against the Mayor and Council Person.  Mr. Colunga claims that during a meeting in Jan or Feb 2018 the Mayor and Council Person made statements to two developers (developers not named) which then cancelled Mr. Colunga's consulting contracts.  

  Mr. Colunga claimed his contracts were for 15% of incentives generated, which would in all likelihood exceed $1,000,000.  As a result of being removed from the projects the Plaintiff will lose in excess of $1,000,000 in consulting fees.

    The incentives generated would be close to $7,000,000 Million dollars to net the Plaintiff 15% or $1,000,000.   Windcrest would have to exempt the developer from taxes as an incentive totally about $7 Million. Now, were does that money come from?  

 The original lawsuit was disposed by Mr. Colunga and refiled in another court.
  

WEDC sources confirmed Mr. Colunga no longer works with Springbrook Senior Development group.  

 Did Robert Colunga also file a law suit against Springbrook Senior Development Group?  I’ll let you make your own conclusions on the merits of the lawsuit.

Baxter and Jacobi Spell TROUBLE

Alan E. Baxter and Gerd "Jake" Jacobi are nothing but trouble for Windcrest.  Voters got rid of both of these trouble makers,  now they are trying to convince folks they should be elected again.   During the years Baxter and Jacobi ran city council, the Street fund was depleted to cover their scheme of lowering taxes and lowering permit fees.  They bragged about paying cash for a few street repairs that were completed, but this month, all of those previously repaired areas were Replaced again.  The streets were neglected and the street fund was depleted which caused the need for a $7 Million street bond. Baxter and Jacobi also hired their hand picked Fire Chief Weiderman, to completely destroy our volunteer fire department.  Over 100 years of fire fighting experience was fired.  Then Weiderman proceeded to dismantle the fleet of FD vehicles.  First up was the Ladder Truck.  Every minor discrepancy was written up then he announced the Ladder Truck was not-serviceable.  Wei

Windcrest Taxes & Water Bill

 Windcrest Candidates have all addressed Windcrest Taxes.  The truth of the matter is for the past 8 years the Tax Rate was decreased.  The previous mayor touted he lowered taxes, but actually he lowered the rate.  Your taxes still went up, but by a smaller amount had the rate not been decreased.   Now, because of the lower tax rate the coffers are nearly empty and council is asking you to pass a $7.4 Million Street Bond!  A $2 Million Fire Equipment Bond and the Water District has a $7 Million Bond.  That's $16.4 Million .  Who is going to pay these Bonds?  Windcrest residents with higher water rates, higher taxes.    The Water District has said during their board meeting, what they don't spend they could put into a bank and draw interest.  Dumb, Dumb.  Would you take out a loan so you could put the money into your bank to get interest?  Pay 5% and earn 1.4%, sure sound dumb.   Everyone is talking Bonds.  All this chatter has citizens confused as to exactly why the Bonds ar
