Amanda Lehmert is Joe Killian's wife.
Lomax, Matheny and Simpson
were in a deal Matheny denied Simpson would make money on
live and on tape at a Council meeting.
Lehmert reported and didn't, on Matheny,
and Killian is about to report, or not,
on Matheny and DGI
which Lehmert is now connected to via RLF Communications.
Vaughan knows Lomax gave to Zack's campaign accounts.
From John Lomax to Zack Matheny in 2014;
LOMAX, JOHN LAUTEN LOMAX CONSTRUCTION OWNER CONTRIBUTION GREENSBORO NC 27425 1/28/2014 $2,000.00
LOMAX, JOHN LAUTEN LOMAX CONSTRUCTION OWNER CONTRIBUTION GREENSBORO NC 27425 3/26/2014 $600.00
And Zack is/was involved
in a Lomax commercial real estate business transaction
involving a property around Charlotte.
So Nancy Vaughan stacks DGI's board
with Zack Matheny supporters?
.Matheny received contributions from John Lomax and DGI Board Chairman and Real Estate Broker Sam Simpson, who both stood to benefit from the deal.
Meanwhile, Zack votes for Sam Simpson's Megasite project,
who also gave to Matheny,
worth millions of Greensboro taxpayer dollars
on the same night?
...The targeted company declined the incentives Matheny brought to City Council for Messrs. Lomax and Simpson, and is moving its headquarters to Greensboro anyway.
http://hartzman.blogspot.com/2014/05/on-crony-capitalism-in-greensboro-zack.html
City Council offered John Lomax and Sam Simpson $150,000
to move Gerbing into John Lomax's building
with Sam recieving the commission on the incentive
and a percentage of the monthly rent.
Councilman Zack Matheny had brought the proposal to the table
while taking campaign cash from Lomax, Simpson and others
Mr. Matheny denied Sam Simpson was going to make any money on the deal on video at city council
"The incentive was worth six times what the city would normally provide for such a deal.
Greensboro will give Gerbing $6,000 for each job it plans to create instead of the $1,000 per job offered under Greensboro’s incentive policy guidelines."

RLF Communications Moves Into Nancy Hoffman's Building
Did Amanda's new employer
move into City Council member Nancy Hoffmann's building,
which means Joe Killian's wife is working in her building,
and for a company who receives City of Greensboro tax money?
"Lacking cohesive marketing, Greensboro seeks plan
In the absence of a unified marketing and branding campaign, various Greensboro booster organizations including the city are still moving forward with a variety of plans to promote the city.
...[Roy Carroll's] Greensboro Partnership, the city and the Greensboro Convention & Visitors Bureau have had conversations about working together on a joint marketing campaign, but Greensboro Partnership Vice President for Marketing & Communications David Marshall says it is a process.
...the need for better marketing of the city. It’s something Councilman Zack Matheny talks about a lot, even though the economic development subcommittee that could take up the charge — a committee he chairs — hasn’t met since April 2014.
But now city spokesperson Donnie Turlington’s communications team is putting together ideas and designs for what he is calling an “image campaign,” driven by city council’s desire for new branding and marketing.
“We’re sort of kicking the tires on some ideas internally,” Turlington said. “It will be the first sort of marketing or advertising campaign that the city has done since I’ve been here.”
...[The City's Donnie] Turlington said he has had “some high-level discussions” with Marshall and Action Greensboro Executive Director Cecelia Thompson about pooling resources to carry out a larger campaign for the entire city. It makes sense “to think about packaging under one brand,” he said, but that is far enough down the road that the city needs to do something in the meantime to fill the gap.
...[Jim Melvin's] Action Greensboro is also moving forward in the interim, but Thompson differentiates between the organization’s work and branding.
“Action Greensboro is interested in leveraging good news about Greensboro on a national basis,” she said. “It’s important to distinguish branding from good news. We think we can attract more businesses and people by getting these stories in front of a national audience.”
Her organization contracted with Greensboro-based RLF Communications “to wake up and pitch stories everyday” to national media outlets about things that help Greensboro stand out...

Press Release for the City of Greensboro
Greensboro to Hold Webinar for Potential Economic Development Applicants

"Such a waste is a $20,000 PR effort when it can be undone with a few tactically placed tweets, blog comments and other "social media" tools.
But when one considers that RLF Communications is an arm of Melvin's Minions, (They don't even admit publicly who their Senior Team is.) it's not surprising the City of Greensboro would "hire" them to "promote" Greensboro as if it wasn't the circus it is. PR is the desperate last act of a dying city."

Roch critiques the City's contract with RLF, saying we're paying $10K for "a 'web site' that is a blog -- and it is a Word Press blog to boot, not even a Google-powered blog."
I appreciate all of the comments that folks are making about the effort by the City of Greensboro to land the Google Fiber project. The role of the googlegreensboro.com website is not to replace all of the great efforts that are already taking place; it is to help organize and better channel efforts. The City needs an official site where it can:
- Provide a hub where information can be officially communicated and updates quickly posted from the City
- Promote various contests and fun ways to engage citizens who want to support the City’s efforts to land Google
-Keep an accurate track of how many Greensboro citizens (or others who support Greensboro) take the time to fill out the Community Application that Google has posted.
As best we can tell, the Google selection will come down to 3 driving factors:
1. The data and information in the official application that each community is preparing, and which the Greensboro city staff is working on extremely hard.
2. The number and quality of responses to the Community Application that Google has posted for citizens to support their communities
3. The overall support and enthusiasm that communities demonstrate to Google and get on their radar screen.
The City of Greensboro is working hard on all of these fronts, as is my agency and many individuals throughout the community. We are creating contests, working with news media (such as today's great article in the N&R about the benefits of fiber optic), holding events and engaging citizens throughout the city. The website is one small part of an overall engagement effort.
We welcome everyone’s efforts to help Greensboro land Google, and we’ll continue to improve our efforts each and every day.

RLF Communications will play an instrumental role on developing an effective strategy in the
previously identified outreach initiatives. This role will continue when ICRCM expands its staff
to include a Director of Marketing and Communications.
RLF Communications will outline a communications strategy that will market the ICRCM
Museum Store (and its e-store) as a destination point for those who wish to shop for unique gifts
suitable for birthdays, retirement celebrations, holidays, etc.
RLF Communications and a new Director of Communications and Marketing will bring increased
visibility to ICRCM’s facility rental availability.
The Executive Director has conducted a tour with staff members of RLF Communications. RLF
recorded the narrative of the tour. This will be used as a basis for the development of the selfguided tour option. The costs associated with this effort have yet to be determined. RLF, in
consultation with ICRCM staff may choose to develop a printed gallery guide and/or a digitally
recorded tour accessible via the technological advances of cellular telephones or other electronic
media.
The costs associated with this effort are projected at $60,000.
