Fun with Myron!

Watching former North Miami Beach mayor Myron Rosner in action has been pretty much like watching a train wreck.  Over and over and over.  Yesterday he was really on a tear.  I’m no psychiatrist, but if I were, I’d be committing him to the nuthouse in a straightjacket, and prescribing a 24 hour Prozac drip with Nurse Ratched watching over him.  Yes, he really is that crazy.

My sources told me that Myron was at the city’s building department yesterday holding three employees hostage at his beck and call, while he was furiously searching through the building permits and plans of twenty five properties.  Armed with a stack of his fake Notices of Violation under his arm, he was making copies of documents and scribbling notes about all the residents in North Miami Beach who he deemed were in violation so he could report them to Code Enforcement.  After he drove those employees crazy he managed to cause enough of a scene in the lobby that the City Manager had to go stop the insanity.

Here’s the thing.  Any time a resident, or really anyone, makes a public records request from the clerk, one usually sends an email or makes a phone call, requests an item, and then patiently waits until the record is ready for pickup.  Some items can be emailed, usually at no charge, but some records are in hard copies, for which the city charges fifteen cents a page.  If the requested record requires research, the requester is billed for staff time at the rate of $11.00 per hour.  This is standard practice and the staff billing rate is capped by Florida Statute.

Myron, on the other hand, likes to go around flashing the title of “Former mayor of North Miami Beach.”  Many employees, especially ones who have been hired since Myron’s been gone, can be intimidated into thinking that Myron is some kind of hot shot who must be catered to.  Even employees who know better, and know that Myron has no more power than any other North Miami Beach resident, for some reason are cowed by his self-importance and end up bowing and scraping at his every command.  This has to stop!

Myron is no more entitled to special treatment than anyone else, and the City Manager, Lyndon Bonner, needs to make that clear to the entire staff of North Miami Beach.  He also can’t tie up city resources and multiple employees for an hour at a paltry cost of $11.00 when that’s not enough to cover the salary of even one employee for an hour.

I was told by City Attorney Darcee Siegel, who investigated this matter for me, that Myron did call in his public records request ahead of time and that building department employees claimed only one employee helped him.  Why the employees are afraid to blow the whistle on Myron is a mystery, but we already know from his past actions that he’s a bully.  Mr. Bonner really should encourage employees to stand up for themselves and report Myron Abuse to him or to their supervisors.  If they don’t, this will continue to happen.  The only way to stop a bully in his tracks is to confront him and refuse to be intimidated.  Remember, folks, even if he were still the mayor, he STILL wouldn’t have the right to boss employees around or make them live in fear.  As a FORMER mayor, he has even less a right to any special treatment whatsoever.  Even if he is A Special Kind of Stupid.

Hey, Myron.  Remember this:  You are the FORMER mayor for a reason.  And a one term one at that!  I’m just saying.

Speaking of A Special Kind of Stupid, as I reported the other day in Myron, Squirrel & Co., Myron’s request for a re-hearing before the NMB Code Enforcement Board was denied.  The monthly meeting of the Board was held last night.  At 6:42 p.m., I received my first text that Myron actually showed up and demanded to be heard.  I guess he didn’t get the memo from Code Compliance Manager Eric Wardle that he was off the Agenda.  Funny, I got the memo.  What gives?

The best part of the story is that Assistant City Attorney Bart H. Armstrong held his own against Myron’s insane demand to have his “case” heard by the Board.  Myron already filed an appeal with the Circuit Court of Appeals, so this matter is out of the city’s hands now.  The fact that Myron doesn’t understand that concept is just one more piece of evidence that he’s not living in reality.

But, here’s the kicker.  Myron was so indignant and so insistent that his “case” be heard, frantically waving the “Citizens’ Bill of Rights” in the air, that he got his ass kicked out of City Hall.  Even funnier, I’m told he was escorted out of the building by two police officers.  OMIFREAKINGGOD I wish I had seen it!

I’m also told that Myron brought his son to the meeting to videotape the proceedings.  I hope the kid recorded Myron’s humiliation for posterity.  I’m sure Myron will edit the tape to his advantage, editing out his own insanity, and post it on his website as proof that he’s being persecuted.

Speaking of Myron’s website, he claims that I’ve libeled him and that I’m a liar.  If that weren’t so outrageously false it’d be funny.  Everything I have ever published or said about Myron has been 100% true.  If I stated a fact, I backed it up with links and/or documentation to prove my statement.  If I stated an opinion, which is neither true nor false, I’ve made sure to state as much.

Myron, since you’re so obviously obsessed with me that you hang on to my every word, hang on to this:  I DARE YOU to prove even one statement I’ve made about you is false.  I FREAKING DARE YOU!

Cowardly bully that Myron is, let’s see if he has the balls to respond to my challenge.  He won’t because he can’t.

In the immortal words of Arnold Schwarzenegger, Myron is a girly-man.

He’s also my bitch.

I really do love this job.
