Jeri Lee asked that it be put on the agenda a reconciliation of community funds solicited by the Rancho Cucamonga Professional Fire Fighters Association and their political action funds. She requested this be placed on the next agenda for a detailed report. She felt the community needs to know that their solicited funds did not finance this last election for the fire union candidates. She talked about the fire fighters and felt they have gone over the line for this election. She felt she was treated rude. She felt their behavior should not have gone on and felt this was outrageous. She felt Mayor Alexander shouldn't have let this happen, which she felt has tarnished their reputation and ruined the public trust in them. She hoped the fire union would put professionalism back into the fire department and stay out of politics. She felt respect needs to come back into the Chamber. James Markman, City Attorney, stated the City has no authority or capacity to require them to give a report about their campaign funds. He said she could contact the FPPC if she feels there is a problem with their reporting. Jeri Lee said it is not their campaign funds, but the money they collect for their charity work.
