Moffat and NIchol are already working on the Potrero Interchange according to Hope Smythe from Santa Ana Regional Water Board
On December 19, 201 Beaumont City Council Agenda Item 18. $537,353 Contract to Moffatt and Nichol for ‘Environmental Documentation Services and Property Specialist’ for the Pennsylvania Project: https://beaumont.civicweb.net/document/10611/Item%2018.pdf?handle=9FD92D121ABB43D68CEB91AA779E5D3D
On November 27, 2017, Hope Smythe, Director of the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board issued a letter to the City of Beaumont regarding the Potrero Interchange Project: https://www.waterboards.ca.gov/santaana/water_issues/programs/401_certification/docs/wqc/2017/332012-17_SR60_Potrero_Rd_Interchange.pdf
At the bottom of the letter Ms. Smythe copied two Representatives for the City of Beaumont:
Jimmy Sims from Mark Thomas & Company that went to college with Ernie Egger.
The other Representative of Beaumont for the Potrero Interchange Project is Moffat and NIchol.
I don’t know when Moffat and Nichol appeared on the scene; there’s no Contract on the City of Beaumont’s Website. But considering Beaumont’s long and consistent history of crooks funneling money out of the City; it’s probably not a good idea to give a shell corporation another contract when they’re already involved in one of Beaumont’s dirty project.
And ＄1/2 Million Contract for a what?
‘Environmental Documentation Services and Property Specialist’
Words. Made up words to steal taxpayer money.
