From this week's Rhino Times:
"Perkins' tactics of strong-arming and lying to his fellow councilmembers have caught up with him. People around here are pretty trusting and they like to think their mayor has the best interest of the city at heart, but councilmembers now say Perkins is obsessed with the performing arts center and has been using deceit and threats to try and get it passed."
But the battle is far from over. Trebic members and others invested well over $100,000 Dollars in getting Perkins, Hoffman and others elected to City Council to push this project through and they stand to take home most of the $60 plus Million Dollars that will be spent to build the Greensboro Performing Arts Center. They have yet to give up the fight and neither should we.
Join myself and members of Real Progress For Greensboro at Melvin Municipal Plaza just outside the Council Chambers to meet and discuss how we plan to oppose this effort and other efforts to rob from the working class to entertain the rich on Tuesday, December 18th at 5:00 PM.
