• THE SECOND EVENTS COMMITTEE, including official roster, decisions made by this committee, funds spent by this committee, history of meeting times, locations and agendas, and proof that these decisions were presented to and approved by residents at a Pacific Park Neighborhood Association meeting. These issues will be discussed during our meeting on Friday, and it would be appreciated if you can provide the requested documentation in advance of our meeting for review. SELICA'S VIOLATION OF DUTIES AS A LEADER Among the numerous problems that arose at yesterday's meeting, at the heart of it all were serious failures regarding Selica's role as a co-leader. As was exceptionally clear, it was Selica's small contingent of aggressive, lying and bullying friends who instigated and prolonged the attacks against community input. It is a role they have played faithfully for several meetings now. Additionally, numerous other concerns regarding Selica's co-leadership were addressed to you, which I will include in bullet form, as we have already discussed them at length. • Selica's failure to inform or involve her co-leader in Pacific Park decisions and opportunities • Selica's failure to inform residents about Pacific Park decisions and opportunities • Selica's decisions regarding use of Pacific Park Neighborhood Association funds without informing the co-leader or the residents • Selica's engaging in and enabling stifling of community input and discussion • Selica's misrepresenting the residents' desires in key issues involving the City • Selica's complicity in the lies and attacks against co-leaders, including Sandra and Mr. N., which are documented and resulted in Mr. N. resigning as a co-leader In light of all these issues, I am writing to formally request that Selica Diaz be removed as a co- leader of the Pacific Park Neighborhood Association. It was clear at yesterday's meeting, and was also expressed by numerous regular attendees, first- time attendees and children at the meeting, that a current leadership crisis exists in our Neighborhood Association. It was also expressed that we need to formalize a process for a multi- leader structure that includes selection criteria, duties, transparency and accountability. Addressing the leadership issues is a top priority, but we cannot and will not proceed in a way that enables the dysfunction displayed at yesterday's meeting and which is outlined in this letter. We cannot move forward with bullying, with lies, with language barriers, or with unethical backroom deals. 5
