From the UCD Quest, Summer 2010
"UCD and the Clark Park Partnership, a consortium that OVERSEES park
maintenance, events, POLICIES and capital projects..."
Wilma,
While Mr. West continually points to the Parks Dept., it seems that UCD
claims that it is in charge of Clark Park in this publication.
(However, we've seen before that UCD tells different stories to
different publications.)
Wilma, Tony West is using the circular deception designed and rehearsed
to frustrate and stone wall anyone asking questions of the secret
partnership. You and others have asked the FOCP leaders for
embarrassing secret information. It is abundantly clear that they have
no intention of answering anyone. Everyone saw their grasp for red
herrings when Glenn Moyer's vile insane lies were the center of all
their initial replies about RoundUp.
Tony West knows that the Parks Dept. will also protect the secrecy by
answering any questions about RoundUp by playing stupid and pointing to
"the community and its partners." UCD will also answer that all
decisions are made by the community and the Parks Dept.
Once a person goes through this, as I have, he or she will understand
this technique used in an iron triangle. It's a corollary to catch 22.
Each group gives you an answer that only tells you that you will never
get an honest answer. No one seems to know when, where, and by whom
decisions are made whenever someone is asking questions! But when they
are marketing, then they are all sophisticated well informed partners
bringing salvation to all that they touch-haha

Yes indeed! If they are representatives of this community, as they claim, is
it not their primary duty to honestly and politely answer their constituents
questions? But for years, we've seen that their primary mission is protecting
the power and secrecy of their partnership with UCD/Penn while they get angry
at all questions because they're hard working volunteers. For years, I asked
for the time, date, and location of their secret meetings, and that was why I
was personally attacked and the meetings always remained secret and exclusive.
Tony West and Brian Siano have been the FOCP leaders for ten years. The
members of FOCP should be ashamed at the behavior of these UCD operatives who
treat so many people so badly with so much deception. This is what happens
when people are lured by the glitter of fool's gold and turn a blind eye to
behavior that they would otherwise condemn!
Thanks for speaking up for truth,
Glenn

Actually, I am getting a bit muddled following this discussion thread. If
the Friends of Clark Park don't really have any say or input as to what
happens in Clark Park whether its plantings or chemicals used in the park,
for what reason do they exist?
The Fairmount Park System is one of the best in the country and has worked
hard to maintained our vast system of city parks. If the City and Park
Commission are making the decisions for Clark Park and not FOCP along with
Penn and the UCD, why is an organization such as FOCP deemed necessary? I
am not trying to be funny, but I really don't get it.
It has been my experience that the various and sundry "Friends of..."
groups in UC have been a huge part of the gentrification drive in the
neighborhood and tend to set the agenda for various public and private
projects to transform use of these spaces as they see fit and for whom
they deem fit in the name of the community, which they do not actually
represent.
I say this because if they are truly accountable to the community,
questions put forth in good faith to the leaders of these organizations by
concerned neighbors should be answered in good faith without spin or
rancor.
Either the FOCP knew about the use of this chemical and how the park would
be revamped and were in on the decisions with the other entities or they
didn't. If they didn't what purpose do they serve? There is FAR too much
protesting of innocence from their end. It's quite confusing and I
usually follow things without getting muddled.
