Property Ownership along CSX Line (last leg) by Geniusofdespair



Property Ownership as of 8/06 along the last leg of CSX Rail line. Hit on illustration to make it larger.

If you look up the Corporations that owns this land along the CSX, you will note the officers have very familiar names. For instance the officers of Neighborhood Planning Company, LLC are:

GUERRA, ARMANDO J
HERRAN, AGUSTIN
GARCIA, CARLOS M
RASCO, RAMON E
PINO, SERGIO

Hi,

As usual very interesting and clever from your part :)


Can you save us the trouble and give us some names ? :)

Just did.

It is not so clever, as it is work.

Much of this work should be done by the mainstream media, and reported and printed and published. Why isn't it?

Does it cost too much?

It that's the case with the Miami Herald, why not just stop printing "Neighbors", take the reporters and the money and start doing in-depth reporting of what the hell is happening in our communities?

RE: Herran/Guerra

Sedanos is a big advertiser in the Miami Herald, as are the production home builders represented by Greenberg Traurig whose managing partner, Cesar Alvarez, is chairman of the Knight Foundation.

http://www.sedanos.com/history2.htm

Sedano's supermarket was founded in Hialeah, Florida in 1962. It has grown to become the # 1 Hispanic retailer in the United States. The founder, Armando Guerra was a well-established business man in Cuba. While in Cuba Mr. Guerra gained the experience he would need upon reaching the United States in 1961. In 1971 Mr. Guerra brought Manuel Herran into the then small business to help in the daily operations.
Manuel Herran was born on 1937 in Santander, Spain. In 1951, he left to Cuba with his family to meet his father which had previously left. In 1966 Mr. Herran, his wife Nyria and two year old daughter moved to Atlanta, Georgia. Finally in 1967, Mr. Herran and family moved to Miami, Florida where he worked as a salesman until 1971. Armando Guerra passed away in 1979 and control of the company passed to Manuel Herran, the current President and Chairman of the board, and Armando Guerra Jr., currently the President of Sedano's Pharmacies and discount.

Retailers like Sedanos, Home Depot, Lowes: all are business models based on increasing traffic.

Putting them in charge of the county commission is like putting Burger King in charge of Weight Watchers.

This is similar information, having to do with property being sold to the County for the EEL program. Recognize any familiar last names among the sellers? If there is any relation to County employees with the same last names it's unethical, even though it's not technically against the law, or contrary to the County's ethics policy .....can't we get Jim DeFede to investigate all this stuff?
