There are 60 nonprofit organizations\/districts on this mountain. Most have an agenda serving a target audience. It might be businesses, homeowners, artists or children. It\u2019s offensive when they step to the plate claiming a hill-wide service model and in fact have allegiance to just a few. It\u2019s even more offensive when they manipulate funding and continue to serve themselves.<\/p>\n

Consider whom you vote for. ICC, IWD and IFPD\/surrogates, it\u2019s not about the central business district or making a personal buck\/agenda. With that perspective, there will never be sustainable, hill-wide funding. It\u2019s about a service model accessible to all. Idyllwild residents think smarter and vote these clowns out.<\/p>\n
