@DaytonPubPolicy this is like Monterey County giving $3 million to Watsonville Community Hospital - bankrupt because hospitals which get a sizable chunk of their revenue from the uninsured and underinsured have a history of failing, why? State and Federal reimbursement. It costs hospitals similar

to complaints individual rate payers have with the current system.

The cure, however, isn't for a county under federal investigation for corruption, to commit to $3 million, $1 million coming from Cannabis - and we all know this contractual relationship will continue.

Look at the County of Monterey and the transaction with Barnett Davis III and the Quadrangle building in South Salinas.

The County rents that structure after helping a Malibu turned Aspen resident, Mr. Davis, buy the Quadrangle with bonds (underwriting/financing) by #Salinas

The Life Foundation makes this horseshit project sound oh so equitable. Doesn't it Kevin?

Have you ever seen the government work so hard to make a faceless Linked In account a wealthy building owner? (The Quadrangle was owned by Catherine Kobrinsky Evans dad, with partners)

Of course Catherine is a member of Salinas Valley Leadership Group and the woman who commented on a story @Calkins_Royal wrote about Mike Hackett, noting Hackett is an associate of Dave Drew by posting to Royal's Facebook account "Shame on You".

Sam Kobrinsky is a

@Kelly_McMillin and my brother in law Bob Eggers (A Salinas PD Commander running gang task force during the relevant period) arranged to get a lease going with Sam Kobrinksy for the ill-fated LEOC (Law Enforcement Operations Center) project.

This would have been a great

local collaboration between the needed @FBI and local Monterey County Law Enforcement - with a federal HQ.

Well the Kobrinsky's were paid by Salinas on the lease. Unsure of that was refunded but magically - the FBI collaboration never took place.

I wonder why?

In conclusion

👏👏👏👏

There is almost always more to the story behind government and the riches of these collaborations.

Unchecked.

Why?
