City of Los Angeles Parking Division of the County of Los Angeles

Hello Every One. I want to share with all you the after been back and forth with The City of Los Angeles Parking Violation Division of the County of Los Angeles, I have decided to pay the ticket and move on with my life. The fees with the City of Los Angeles Parking Violation Division are out of control.

Please see picture of the letter I received from them when they mail me the ticket, stating the their employee/contractor was not able to give me the ticket. I just feel I was rip off by the system.

What I learned; next time just look for a parking lot and paid for it. Don't risk any more and let the paid parking lots to make money and the City of LA Parking Violation Division will lost revenue.

The WEHO Awards the worst event of the year 2010

I can not believe The WEHO Awards, it is one of the most worst event of the year 2010. The website is not updated. People are not notify. I got calls and emails from the people the we nominated the they never even received their nomination certificates. Even inside sources of the WEHO Awards Governors Board disclose to me the they do not want to be part of it any more. Some even QUIT before the event was over!

What the tells you? The WEHO Awards are a JOKE. Whom ever played the game, they may gain something. But others will not even consider the crack again next time.

People are saying the is a just a excuse for organizers and "Governors Boards" to make a living of it. It is so sad the people have to take advantage of the beautiful city of West Hollywood to make a living. Well recommendations are if this kind of Awards continue that the City of West Hollywood Council should take over, not individuals whom their purposes is their own pocket, not the community. So next time when you heard about the WEHO Awards "It's Community Best's, Just turn around and continue walking because what all they want is to waste your time, energy, passion and dedication for the best city of Los Angeles County which is West Hollywood.

In my case, one of the publications I write "Diversity News," the #1 consumer news magazine was nominated as publication and the organizers wanted all nominees to pay the CRAZY fee of $300 to go the such an event. I personally told some of the people behind this "JOKE" are you Crazy, I will not pay to EARN an AWARD. I have morals and dignity. As you saw the price increased to such as "VIP" amount of $500 up to $1000 per person.

Well, I would not pay it because even the Grammy do not cost the price.

So on March 8, 2010 I was called to cover the event for my #1 publication Examiner.com who reaches over 19 million readers per month. I did not believe it. I called the supposed "PR" = Public Relations person and he say the the organizer of the event wanted me to cover the WEHO Awards 2010 for Examiner.com. Well I did not have any other plans, So I say yes. I drove to WestWood and when I got there. It was a mess. The person on the check-in did not know what to do!

Finally, somebody make the call saying the no more people allowed and the every one was late? Well there were about 35 people still in the Palomar Hotel. Well, I do not put my self down. So I called the PR person and he told to the check in person which he told him the somebody else of suppossed "Facilities Person" made the call the nobody else is allowed because it is too late. I gave the phone to the check in person and he spoke with the "PR" Person who have called me at 10 am to get me ready to cover the event and even called me 10 minutes before reaching the hotel checking on me. Which I told him I was in the corner, he say was fine and just to check in when walk to the hotel. Even I called him when I got there and he say just to walk inside and and make a left to check in.

After the "PR" person who made me drive from Hollywood to WestWood spoke with the check in person. I got the phone and he told me the it is was late to get on the shuttle (There were still 35 people waiting at the hotel at the moment). Any way he told me it is was too "LATE" and nobody else is allowed to the Playboy Mansion. I say ok, then I will go home. Which I told the check in person who did not how to handle the situation and did not knew whom he was dealing with.

Any way this WEHO Awards is a JOKE and I want to tell all you to please do not waste your time or money on something the only the "Governors" and organizers will benefit from it.

It is about them, not the community of West Hollywood. Please contact the City Council of West Hollywood and tell them to take over this event.

I can continue on and on and some of the emails I got, but I just want to move on and forget about the nightmare of THE WEHO AWARDS 2009 - 2010. Even my well known industry friends told me I was wasting my time and unfortunally they were right. I got lots of people and organizations nominated for this Award, but it was just a JOKE and WASTE of my time and theirs. So Next time watch out about SPAMS.

DON'T VISIT THE CITY OF WEST HOLLYWOOD

First, I want to say to all to watch where you park in the City of West Hollywood because their signs are very confusing especially for visitors. (See pictures of some of the signs and watch out because the Towing companies have partner with the City of West Hollywood to make money from you).

I would just say to all, not to visit a city the was incorporated in 1984 and who needs their residents and visitors to survive. But they should provide incentives to visitors to visit, like 2 free hours parking and validation from the business owners.

The city of West Hollywood gets a percentage from the towing companies for towing your car. Also the tickets are very high. Do you think the is fair for visitors to be abuse by the city of WEHO? Well, next time just think twice if you visit the City of West Hollywood and make sure to pay for a parking spot and do not use their meters like the they will respect their visitors and not abuse them.

So do not visit the City of West Hollywood, please go somewhere else to expend your hard earn money. Other cities will appreciate your business and support, not the City of West Hollywood, where they are taking advantage of visitors.

The City of West Hollywood should be investigate by big TV Networks and publicize the underground investigation to all their citizens.

You want to SPEAK UP, then contact me feel free to email at: diversitynews@hotmail.com

Information from the City of West Hollywood Visitors Bureau site:

Officially founded in 1984 as the 84th city in Los Angeles County, West Hollywood is a young, vibrant community with a colorful and entertaining past!

From its 19th century beginnings as a virtual “no man’s land,” the region soon became prime location for a railway, and in 1894, a man named Moses Sherman bought the land and designated it as the headquarters of the Los Angeles Pacific Railway Co. This venture sparked the need for housing, and West Hollywood (then a town called “Sherman”) started to see its first bout of immense growth. The little town grew fast, and by 1912 it was dubbed “The Queen of the Foothills” and guidebooks praised its climate, ideal location, and quality of community.

In the 1970’s the gay movement influenced West Hollywood’s direction, as gay and lesbian citizens became more assertive of their rights and felt free to ‘come out of the closet’. Because West Hollywood was unincorporated, it flew under the then-homophobic Los Angeles Police Department’s radar, and a thriving gay community was established. Due to the gay influence and citizens with money to spend, commercial and residential sections of the city were revitalized, and these new attractive properties made for a new vibrancy throughout the city. Along with gays, Russian Jews sought out West Hollywood as a refuge, a mix of elderly citizens and young families flocking to what is now the East Side of West Hollywood.

At this time, citizens and leaders realized the problems of occupying an unincorporated city and after years of grassroots campaigning and fast mobilization by community members to take more local control, West Hollywood was formally incorporated as its own city in 1984.
