Save Our Community was founded in the movement to resist Wal-Mart's development in Rosemead, California. Now, it has become a general site for news, information, gossip, talk, and blogging about Rosemead. We also have stories about South San Gabriel, San Gabriel, Montebello, and occasionally about Pico Rivera, El Monte, South El Monte, Alhambra, Temple City, and other nearby communities. Your host is Todd. If you want a blog just sign up, get approved, and start writing. Good posts will be moved onto the home page.
Tribune does not go far enough
Among the problems with the Tribune article is that the reporter continues to take what Armenta, Ly and Clark say as though it were the truth. She never asks WHY complaints about the odors started "about five years ago." She also fails to explain that these proposed odor controls were all proposed by the owner five years ago.
The other thing going on five years ago was that Maggie Clark was worried about losing her job, and she managed to recruit a couple of dunsels to run interference for her. She screamed about avian flu and gave people the impression that this was some new problem, as opposed to something that's been going on for decades.
This was always about the politics of keeping Maggie Clark in power, and NEVER about health, safety, welfare, economics, or fairness.
