It came to my attention that VV is trying to change its bylaws to make the
organization more exclusive. The bylaw changes appear to be most advantageous
to those individuals who currently benefit most from the organization and its
funds. Both Mr. and Mrs. Graham are extremely protective over the
organization and have refused to reveal any information (that is, public
info) after having been requested to do so. Today, the proposed changes to
the bylaws support the argument that this organization's intent is to make it
difficult for those to participate in the group. I don't know whether or not
Bob Cooper from the MCDA has checked the current and proposed bylaws to see
if they meet the citizen participation group requirements. I believe that
most people would like to see an organization that is open and welcoming to
its constituents. Certainly, this does not seem to be the case with the
proposed bylaws. This is a serious issue since this organization receives
millions of public money.
