My God! Those County Commissioners have no shame! Really. It is just puke inducing. They did try to do an end-run a couple of minutes ago, at the County Commission Meeting, trying to do a re-vote on the MDX Board vote. It was sponsored by the Vile Natacha Seijas: MDX do-over vote. Angry words were spewed towards Sorenson by Commissioner Pepe Diaz. She mentioned some of the shenanigans going on which he took great offense to. Well, I reported on it May 4th, so I heard about the shenanigans too. The vote: Gimenez voted no on the re-vote (even though he originally voted for Gonzalo Sanabria) which killed the measure. The offending, sticking up for counting Pepe Diaz's late vote: Sally Heyman, Joe Martinez, Pepe Diaz, Vile Natacha Seijas, Bruno Barreiro. Against: Gimenez, Sorenson, Edmonson, Rolle, Moss, Jordan, Souto. Sosa is absent.So Gonzalo Sanabria DID NOT GET BACK ON THE MDX BOARD. Al Maloof is in. Too bad Armando Gutierrez. It didn't work. This is baby stuff. "Do over" is what a kid wants.

I heard it was an atypical, nasty discussion... the unreformable majority doesn't like to be pushed around by reality.
Al has been selling his services at the PAB and now wants to market his business at the MDX. Why are Katy and Carlos making this happen?
He is an alvarez person
Hey, she is wearing Tina Faye glasses!
Too many appointments simply pass the good people of Miami-Dade County by, why should this be any different? We have got to start paying attention and get REAL green, smart activists on these important boards. In the meantime, at least one less of Armando Gutierrez' friends is on the MDX. Perhaps the MDX will dump Armando's wife as its chair. Time for new leadeship, isn't it?
FYI: Team Alvarez denies any affiliation or association with Maloof.
Yes, its time for new leadership on the MDX.
In my opinion, it looks like there is a lot of stealing going on over there.
You see, Armando Gutierrez represents MCM Construction at the County. Then, they go over to MDX and bid. Gonzalo Sanabria approved all of the contracts, under MDX Chair Maritza Gutierrez's leadership. Then, when all the approvals are already done, she steps down for the votes on her husband's clients, just to claim there is no conflict.
It appears that when Armando gets paid, that money$$ still goes into their house.
Whats wrong with that picture?
Al Maloof is a 29th floor guy. I know of a person who spoke to the Mayor's staff about a County related issue. Well, this member of Mayor's staff indicated very clearly that they would have a better shot if Al Maloof was on the team. Why, I have no idea, but, I can add 2 and 2...
MCM would get those contracts with or without Armando's help. They have a great reputation on delivering projects on time and on budget, and I can't say that for most contractors of their size or larger, see Odebretch, OHL, etc.
