After all we heard about bottles of wine and sky trips from the dais; not to mention suddenly Moore, whom we never heard of before, coughed up $20K to two of the Detricks just prior to submitting his plans and then he took to the dais for the first time to have the sign ordinance change with Detrick, right on cue, doing Moore's bidding.<br /> <br />Can’t tell me all of this was just for the “greater good” because Elk Grove had to have another McDonald’s!<br />Calling the FBInoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-693256921060044086.post-66405381449800805122014-03-26T09:41:02.483-07:002014-03-26T09:41:02.483-07:00Got to agree with Glenn...it's ugly and I too ...Got to agree with Glenn...it's ugly and I too thought we'd never see Leary again....different face, same crap.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-693256921060044086.post-86942953412717777282014-03-25T17:24:32.376-07:002014-03-25T17:24:32.376-07:00Anon:

So who actually donated the money?? Mr. Moore of course!! I find this offensive that these developers have to stoop to have their wives/families donate in an attempt to hide the truth of the donation. Mr. Moore has lost all perspective and respect. Greed has taken over and now the entire family is learning his trade. Mr. Moore, just man up and not let your wife have to dirty up her name for you. What kind of man does that? Think about it Mr. Moore. Your wife just became Cooper's whore.

Plus, Moore's office will be located there, so both Mr. Detrick and Mr. Davis can use the drive-thru windows on their way to work or city hall to pick up their honorarium. <br /><br />I agree with the earlier comments - Moore's project is really a case study in how government works.

Gil Moore has single-handed manipulated and raped this city. His quest for greed; as well as shallow council members who only live in today's vision; have left us wholly "un-unique"; in fact typical of all the exits from Elk Grove to Bakersfield. Nice going fellas. You can have so much to be proud of now...another McD and gas station...OH BOY, what destination vision y'all have. And looking at the scarring that has occurred...sign ordinance shot to hell; alcohol sales 30 feet from a freeway on-ramp; re-zones accomplished; and miraculously, he is the high bidder on the land he needs to place his hard fought freeway signage (I'd love to see those bids!!) Yup, I know I will sleep better tonight knowing another gas station is right up the street.
