Inside the AVRCD
Antelope Valley Resource Conservation District president Kathleen burr has a reputation of missing AVRCD meetings and of being nasty and abrupt to the public. She has accused the public of “stalking” her because someone revealed her secret AVRCD/Dustbuster meetings.
Kathleen has missed over forty percent of the meeting’s in the last two years.
Kathleen has hired her gardener Manny Gonzales as an AVRCD nursery employee. no public disclosure. He covers her gardening and other needs on the weekends. No public disclosure of outside relationship..
Kathleen has hired her niece (?) Debra Gillis as AVRCD executive director. Despite freedom of information requests. Kathleen will not disclose any relationship. Stating that it is no one’s business.
*AVRCD financials list a contract worker getting anywhere from $3,000 to $6,000 a month. According to the IRS code and the CCR's a contract worker is not to use your equipment, NOT give direction to employees, and not have anything to do with the running of an entity and is to be separated from the daily running of the business. If any of these criteria is not met then this is considered an employee and taxes shall be extracted as payroll taxes..
Then why is Debra Gillis Listed as an Executive Director (Source: letter head), does she get 1099ed, Why does she get bonuses. Why does she get paid for holidays. and why according to your Financials is she double dipping.(Source: various financial statements)
*Debra Gillis seems to have some idea of how to do her job, but spends most of her time protecting sister Danette and doing Danette’s work. Debra is paid $30.00 per hour..
Kathleen has hired another niece (sister of Debra Gillis) Danette Gordon as business manager. Again despite freedom of information requests, Kathleen will not disclose ant relationship saying that it is no ones business.
*Danette Gordon was hired without a vote of the board and the job was listed obscure internet location that wasn’t public domain.
*Danette Gordon has no apparent education, training, or business experience. Danette spends very little time at the AVRCD office and stays at home while on the clock. Kathleen keeps Danette’s pay secret but Danette makes about $30.00 an hour.
*Danette has made complaints against workers at the AVRCD bank ( B-of-A) and accounting agency (Berky and Cox) saying that the workers were “mean” and they made her “stomach hurt.” stomach troubles seem to be an issue with Danette.
*Mr. Gordon (unemployed handyman and husband of Danette) kathleen has hired to repair buildings after Danette said she supposedly advertised on the internet and found none were qualified as her very own husband, this despite the bad economy and thousands of unemployed in the A.V. valley. Danette did not show the AVRCD board any applications or bids besides her husbands. No internet ads made by Danette for work have been found.(Interesting that his bid was the exact amount of the project budget.)

I noticed the nice man wasn't at the nursery when I went there. I didn't find anybody so I left. There was this nice Mexican fellow but he didn't know what to do.

She was calling and texting to see if the Supervisor Deputy left? What meeting were you at? I was there and this did not happen. How would she know which meetings he's going to show up at and which one's he doesn't. Besides, she likes when he's there. Then he can see all of the crap that the board has to put up with from the public.

"Crap from the public"
Where do you come off as judge and jury. The public has a right to question the shenanigans of your org. They are funding your follies.
Your board that you are defending has stated that the less printed in the minutes the better, " so they can't come back on us"

Go pizz up a rope

"You can't scare us we are in power.

Back in 2008 the Desert mountain conservancy (DMCA) was given $45,000 to buy land for Lancaster. The money came from Lancaster and since there are no records for DMCA, no meetings, no minutes and no accountability, who got the land and where did the money go.

Another question is where did the money go, into who's account. This was in 2008, how many transactions have been done since then.

Is this a ploy to get "pocket parcels" for a city????? Where is the money

In 2007 they were given $12,000, NOT $45,000 and is still sits in an account untouched until they decide what to do with it. If you want proof, come by the office and they'll copy the statement for you. Where do you people get your dollar amounts?

Daily Horoscope for May 21

Cancer

Take care because it's a rather downbeat day. You feel as though you have the cares of the world on your shoulders, and maybe you have. You've certainly got to cope with a lot of responsibility and duty, and there could also be delays and disappointments that need to be negotiated. Yes, it's a fairly miserable day but try to rise above it, otherwise you'll soon start to feel really wretched and sorry for yourself.
