Diane Harkey's sad legacy in Dana Point

News

Expert: Dana Point broke law

Here’s the story I mentioned in the previous post, about the possible Brown Act violation by the Dana Point City Council in signing a resolution opposing the recall of Mayor Diane Harkey.

I previously posted a letter from the city attorney’s office saying there was no violation. If you read through the above linked story, you’ll see that Terry Francke — a long-time advocate of open meetings and public records — opines that it may indeed violate the law.

"Despite public denials from her own Assembly staff, just a few months ago, Diane Harkey disclosed under penalty of perjury an interest of up to $1,000,000 in "Point Center Financial," a company being sued by investors for fraud and under investigation for operating "Ponzi scheme," bilking investors, according to the Los Angeles Times and KNBC News. Harkey's recent mandatory financial disclosures as an elected official now prove her connection to the troubled company and may become evidence in the fraud litigation."

Diane Harkey's sad legacy in Dana Point-

  • a failed Town Center project;
  • more government spending;
  • more regulations;
  • more city union employees;
  • fewer businesses.
