Looks like the ex and current sheriffs have ordered their very private armies to protect the people from the truth once again. Can you spell R.E.A.C.T. task force Mr. Horsley, and abuse of power Mr. Munks?
While we are on the topic of Grand Jury Report that get "dead ended"--ALL of the Grand Jury reports on Atherton have determined the the town was dysfunctional due to "micromanagement" and I am in full agreement with their diagnosis--But the micromanagement we suffer from, is coming strait from the Sequoia Healthcare District meddling in our affairs, to do the bidding of the County's Players Club. Sequoia Healthcare District may be only one of several vehicles for the syndicate of "good old boys" but at least it would be one less problem for the rest of us, if Stogner, Hickey and Graham can successfully rein it in. Good luck to you guys Mr. Stogner--hope you all take over the Board of Sups after this.

E-mail I sent to Marshall Wilson of San Mateo County today


Marshall,

Please look into this ASAP

Our website www.XSHCD.com has had two links available to to public to view the 01-02 Grand Jury reports that were on the County's website.

Some person(s) has deleted those links.

Thank You

Recommendation 2.20
The Sequoia Healthcare District should reduce property taxes for district taxpayers unless in a future election district voters approve expenditures for purposes not approved by district voters in the 1946 measure establishing the district or in 1996 Measure H. This reduction would equal the amount expended by the district for purposes not approved by the voters in the 1946 measure or in 1996 Measure H and effectively limit district expenditures to those purposes approved by district voters. By this reduction in property tax receipts to be requested under the Revenue and Taxation Code 96.8, property taxes would be lowered for all district taxpayers.

Response from Sequoia Healthcare District (The last sentence is the best.)

In conclusion, the Hospital District Act that governed the actions of the District in 1946 has been amended by the State legislature many times since Sequoia Hospital was formed. Current Healthcare District Law allows a District to address any issues that the Board feels will improve the health of the community, whether it is services rendered for inpatient, outpatient, wellness or preventive care. The Board believes that the Grand Jury's work was well meaning, however, it does not reflect a complete understanding of the District's legal authority as a public body, it's ongoing role in governing the hospital or its fiduciary obligations to protect the community's assets. The Board does not believe that it would be in the best interests of the District to implement the Grand Jury's recommendations at this time and so declines to do so.

The Grand Jury documents have been found, and are now available once more at the Hickey, Graham & Stogner website: Web Link Please let me know at Jack@HickeyforSupervisor.com if they disappear again.
