I don't believe this woman. Hooper had the nerve to deny this many times. I clicked on the link and sure enough, the bulletin from the fppc clearly says that it's Andrea Hooper of City of Lynwood. How can she stand there and lie about this?
Hooper is the clearest example of the wolf disguised as a kind sheep. Oh I believe she's done this and so much more. That sweet grandma smile doesn't fool me!
It is very sad to find out that our City Clerk has lie to the Lynwood residents that elected her and trusted her. It is very hard to believe that she never reported to the appropiate authorities the wrong doings of Mr. Richards and his dirty businesses with his friends and family members. She never reported the misuse of the credit cards by council members such as Mr. Bird, Fernie the "Pervie" and other ex-council members. According to investigators, she even try to cover up for her friends during the investigation that possibly paid for her campaign and that is why she failed to report those contributions. The City clerk has the responsibility to monitor elected officials actions and has the report any corruption to authorities on behalf of the Lynwood Residents that elected her. She failed to stop the ongoing corruption that has placed this small and poor city on the front page of most newpapers. Mrs. Hooper does not deserved to be our city clerk any more and she must be recalled. But of course, that will never happen because she has manage to manipulate and invalidate most recall paper submitted by Lynwood residents tired of all this corruption.
I have lost all faith in Lynwood politics. Lynwood is the center of a story of lies, sex, and money. We have elected a lier, a pervert and greedy people to manage our city. We are tired, very tired. Andrea, SHAME ON YOU.
Andrea Hooper denies that she was fined by the FPPC. She has been cynical enough to say that the information in this website is false. I can understand it since Hooper is technology challenged. Many people have clicked the link provided in this page, and have read the FPPC Bulletin that clearly states that she is the City Clerk of Lynwood. We all watch her spin in her pot of lies. Ignorance is daring! Andrea, you are not fooling anyone but yourself. We all look at you and see that you're waiting for someone to save you, but no one can save you from your own lies! Wake up and smell the coffee! SHAME ON YOU ANDREA, SHAME ON YOU.
PS. Don't blame Ethel Pacheco, your are suppose to be the expert! And on a second thought, it's not so much that you were fined, but it's more the fact that you've had the nerve to deny it, even when all evidence shows it's you. Shame on you Andrea, Shame on you.
Andrea Hooper is the perfect basis for a limitation on the number of times a politician can run for office and represent the community. Just like there is a limit term for the President of the United States, and the senate, there should be one for COUNCIL, CITY CLERK, AND CITY TREASURER. The city of Lynwood, among other local cities have been the victims of crooked politicians such as Andrea Hooper, Paul Richards, Louise Byrd, Fernando Pedroza, Ricardo Sanchez, and Arturo Reyes. Some of these politicians were or have been in office for so long that they know all the in-n-outs, on how to manipulate the system. Paul Richards was the Mayor/councilman for over 17 years, Louise Byrd has been in office for over 10 years, and Andrea Hooper has been the City Clerk for about 25 years. Isn't this a sign that we must seek new leadership? Andrea Hooper should be recalled or better yet she should retire and rest. Afterall, what is a person good for, when they are over 90 years old. We don't need "CANCER WOMAN" as our City Clerk! I think we would have better leadership from the "PIG" Mr. Calderon was campaigning for!!!!! So please Residents, "DO NOT ELECT CANCER WOMAN WHEN SHE RUNS FOR RE-ELECTION, THE BUCK HAS TO STOP SOMEWHERE!
miss hooper does not plan to run again. She only wanted this last 4 years so that she could retire. After she retires, we will pay her retirement as taxpayers.It's a shame that it took so long for the residents to see her for what she really is. I believe that Reyes was the only councilmember that was willing to put her in her place.She has never realized that she is only a "glorified secretary" and not a councilmember. Council continues to let her participate in their discussions and manipulate them.That recent episode with the commissions was all unnecessary, but she lied to council and as usual they fell for it.She only gave council the applications she wanted them to have.I commend miss hooper on her ability to fool so many people for so many years. The only thing that she has forgotten is that there are still people in Lynwood who know how she funded her first campaign. Someone please tell this lady once and fo all....YOU ARE NOT A COUNCILMEMBER!!!!
Thats true, Cancer Women does act and wants to be treated as a councilmember, but we all know she is good for nothing. we all know she does nothing all day, but walk outside every ten minutes to smoke a cigarrette. another thing that I want to make everyone aware of is that this woman demonstrates that she is a hypocrite, if you notice, anytime you conversate with her and you are about to leave, notice how she laughs histerically for any dumb remark you make. you could say "oh my God, its cold outside" and she will laugh as if it is the funniest thing she's ever heard. andrea, you are pathethic and you do not deserve to be our city clerk. If anyone wants to talk about being racist, Ms. Hooper is the person everyone should be looking at, because she is just as prejudice as sylvia herron. Please leave our city andrea and take sylvia herron with you because both of you are good for nothing.
I CAN JUST SEE IT NOW, ANDREA HOOPER MUST BE FURIOUS AND FILLED WITH DISMAY, KNOWING THAT THIS WEBSITE EXISTS. SHE MUST BE SAYING TO HERSELF, MY GOD, THEY FINALLY FOUND A WAY TO STOP US FROM GETTING RICH AND GETTING AWAY WITH OUR CORRUPT WAYS.
BUT DON'T WORRY ANDREA, THEY WILL BE COMING FOR YOU SOON!!!!REMEMBER THIS.....LUXURY DOESN'T LAST FOREVER. SO ENJOY YOUR CADILLAC BECAUSE THATS THE LAST NEW CAR YOU'LL BE BUYING!!!
IN TUESDAYS COUNCIL MEETING DECEMBER 7 2004 SOMEONE MENTIONED THIS WEBSITE, AND ANDREA HOOPER ANSWERED THAT THEY HAD ALREADY TURNED IN TO THE DA'S OFFICE. WHY DO YOU WANT TO SCARE PEOPLE? DO YOU WANT THE DA TO QUIET OUR VOICES SO WE DON'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT THE WRONG DOING OF ALL OF YOU? I CROSS THREE BRODERS TO GHET HERE TO HAVE FREEDOM. I FOUGHT VERY HARD TO BE A CITIZEN OF THIS COUNTRY. MY FREEDOM INCLUDES FREEDOM TO GIVE MY OPINION. ME AND ANYONE CAN GIVE THEIR OPINION, WHY DO YOU WANT TO TAKE THIS BASIC RIGHT FROM US ADREA? BECAUSE YOUR WHITE AND WE ARE SOUTH AMERICANS, CENTRAL AMERICANS, MEXICANS AND YOU THINK YOU'RE BETTER THAN US? YOU ARE W-R-O-N-G. IN THIS COUNTRY WE ARE ALL THE SAME. AND I'M NOT GOINT TO LET YOU OR ANYONE TO TELL ME TO BE QUIET. MY OPINION IS AS IMPORTANT AS YOUR OPINION AND ITS NOT ILLEGAL TO SAY WHAT WE THINK. I'M GLAD TO KNOW THAT MANY MORE PEOPLE ARE KNOW ABOUT THIS SITE. PUT YOUR OPINION EVERYONE, WE NEED TO GET BACK OUR CITY BEFORE IT'S BANKRUPT!!!!!
TO THE COMMENT MADE ABOVE, I COULN'T OF SAID IT BETTER MYSELF. JUST LET ME ADD THE FACT THAT ANDREA HOOPER IS A LIAR. ANDREA, DO YOU ACTUALLY THINK THAT SOMETHING CAN BE DONE TO THE PEOPLE THAT POST THEIR OPINION ON THIS BLOGG? WHAT DO YOU THINK WE ARE DUMB?
NOW I'M SURE THIS WEBSITE IS YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE, BUT WE ONLY SPEAK THE TRUTH AND LET ME JUST TELL YOU THAT THE D.A. WILL NOT GO AFTER US TELLING THE TRUTH. ON THE OTHER HAND, THEY MUST BE GRATEFUL THAT WE ARE HELPING THEM WITH INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR CORRUPT WAYS OF HANDLING PUBLIC RECORDS.
SO PLEASE ANDREA, DO NOT TRY TO SCARE PEOPLE BY TELLING THEM THAT THE D.A. WILL COME AFTER US BECAUSE YOU WRONG......"THEY ARE COMING FOR YOU!!!!!"
ALL THE CITY GETS FROM YOU IS PURE WHINING AND NO RESULTS....YOU SHOULD JUST BE QUIET AND DO YOUR JOB. LEARN TO WORK FOR A CHANGE INSTEAD OF SMOKE ALL DAY.
I heard when she told a couple of Lynwood Residents that visiting this website was against the law. That's why so many people stopped putting in their comments. She also asked the computer people at the City to block the website, if they do, then they need to also block the LATimes. FREEDOM OF SPEECH. It doesn't matter whether you're Latino, African-American, Caucasian, Asian, Homosexual, Bisexual, Indian, Pacific Islander, Middle Esterner, European, and all the others that I missed. If you are a citizen of this blessed country, YOU ARE DAMN FREE TO SAY WHAT YOU WANT. Why do you think we have our troops making it free for us all? Why do you think our sons, and daughters, and grandchildren, and brothers, and sisters, and friends are fighting in Iraq? Why do you think so many people have died to give us freedom? You can't take this basic right from us. Put it in your head!
Oh, my God. People, I have a some new gossip to tell!!!
I just found out that the $25 gift certificate that was given to the employees was not given to Andrea Hooper.
Her reaction--she told off Human Resources for not giving her the measly $25 certificate because she was an Elected Official, However, I guess since she considers herself an Employee/Elected Official, she thinks she is entitled to anything that Management and Elected Officials get.
So my conclusion here is that she's a City Employee and an Elected Official at her convenience, right?
I think she further needs to be investigated by the D.A. and by the Community. I would like to know what other Perks or benefits she is getting.....I cannot understand how she can become an Employee, I mean, she wasn't hired by the City, she was elected by the peoply, right? I don't believe she can force the City to hire her when she is an Elected Official. I think that would be DOUBLE STANDARDS, I don't know, thats just my opinion. What does the community think about this? I would like to know why she claims to be Management and an Elected Official.
This is a good point, can the City Council request an audit to determine if she's double dipping?
Hey "Hoop", why did you give Byrd away with the FPPC?
This is a very good point. We need to determine:
1. What fringe (non-salary employee compensation) benefits does Hooper get aside from her salary and what are the amounts ( I mean an itemized list of what compensation or salaries she gets, and the amount)
2. Is she considered management or elected official or both and why?
3. If she is management, does she get management benefits (as well as benefits as an elected official)?
4. Does Andrea Hooper get the following management benefits?:
- Vacation time
- Sick leave
- Personal leave
- Executive leave
- Administrative leave
- Holiday
- Health Insurance
- Dental Insurance
- Vision Insurance
- Life insurance
- Car allowance
5. Are there any resolutions/ordinances/codes classifying Hooper as management?
6. As an Elected Official, does she get paid for:
- Lynwood Information Inc Pay
- Lynwood Redevelopment Agency Pay
- Public Finance Authority Pay
- Pers/Retirement Plan
A good idea is to make a public information request to get an official answer to these questions. Looks like this part-time jobs are very profitable, specially when you're getting paid double.
I am shocked!! I was fooled, by this lady THE ONLY THING THAT I REQUEST IS THAT SHE QUITS BEFORE WE BEGIN A RECALL CAMPAIGN!!!! DISSAPOINTED LYNWOOD RESIDENT
The elections of NOVEMBER 2004 should of been a wake-up call for all of the residents of LYNWOOD when she won. That was the dirtiest election I have ever witness and til this day nothing was been done. These crooks are still SPENDING OUR MONEY out children's MONEY and their future. How can I tell my children to VOTE when I personally have lost faith in politics. I was forced to VOTE in a Church and when I went to city hall and saw LETICIA VASQUEZ and ANDREA HOOPER inside the polls and no one doing a damm thing about it. Two canditates with no campaign won HMMMMMMMMMMMM.
DOES ANYONE REMEMBER WHEN ANDREA HOOPER WAS RUNNING FOR RE-ELECTION AND MR. CALDERON HAD A POSTER OF A PIG?
WELL, I THINK THE CITY WOULD OF BEEN BETTER OFF ELECTING THAT PIG TO BE OUR CITY CLERK, INSTEAD OF RE-ELECTING MS. HOOPER. AFTER ALL, AREN'T PIGS SMART ANIMALS? I'M SURE THE CITY WOULD BE GETTING MORE RESULTS AND MORE WORK FROM THAT PARTICULAR PIG. ANDREA HOOPER IS SIMPLY A DODO BRAIN THAT IS ONLY DOING THINGS FOR HERSELF.
ONE THING IS FOR SURE, IF 3 YEARS FROM NOW, ANDREA HOOPER DECIDES TO RUN AGAIN FOR RE-ELECTION, I AM GOING TO MAKE EVERY POSSIBLE EFFORT TO GET THE PIG ELECTED. INSTEAD OF THE OTHER PIG THAT GOES OUT TO SMOKE EVERY 10 MINUTES, NEVER DOES ANY WORK, AND NAUSEATES EVERYONE WHEN SHE WALKS BY, BECAUSE DAMN, SHE STINKS!!!!!!
THERE GOES HOOPER AGAIN THREATENNING THAT THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY IS LOOKING FOR THE PEOPLE WHO MAKE THIS WEBSITE AND THAT THEY WILL BE PROSECUTED. WHAT ARE THEY GOING TO BE PROSECUTED FOR? FOR TELLING THE TRUTH? MAN, IF THAT'S THE CASE, THEN OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN IRAQ ARE WASTING THEIR LIVES FOR NOTHING. IF THE DA PROSECUTES PEOPLE FOR TELLING THE TRUTH, THEN WE MIGHT AS WELL FORGET ABOUT THE GREAT NATION WE ARE!!!! WHEY DON'T THEY PROSECUTE YOU? DIDN'T YOU SEND RICHARDS FILES TO HIS HOUSE? DID YOU TAMPER WITH RECALL ATTEMPTS OF THE PAST? WHY DON'T THEY PROSECUTE PEDROZA FOR WATCHING PORNOS? WHY DON'T THEY PROSECUTE BYRD AND SANCHEZ FOR VOTING ON MANY DEALS WITH RICHARDS? WHY GO AFTER THE PEOPLE WHO ARE TELLING US THE TRUTH SO WE CAN OPEN OUR EYES? YOU'RE NOTHING BUT A DEMAGOGUE. YOU'VE BEEN THERE WAY TO LONG, AND YOUR TIME IN OFFICE IS NEARING AN END. THEY SHOULD PROSECUTE YOU FOR INTIMIDATING PEOPLE!!!!!!!!
Practically everyone in this website has a nickname. We have GONZO, POWER PUFF GIRL, FERNIE THE PERVIE, AND MACHO MAN....well, at least he says he is, I dont know about his son.
Anyway, we haven't really baptized ANDREA HOOPER with a nickname. So I just thought that all of us bloggers should take a survey and sort of give some ideas of what name should give her....So far we have CANCER WOMEN, PIG, AND STINKY. Can anyone else offer any other suggestions?
OH, AND ANDREA, PLEASE SHUT YOUR MOUTH. STOP THREATENING PEOPLE, DON'T YOU KNOW IT'S AGAINST THE LAW TO DO THAT. I'M SORRY, I FORGOT YOU WILL SIMPLY DENY OR HIDE ANY ALLEGATIONS ABOUT THIS.
MY PROPOSAL ARE THE FOLLOWING:
RICHARD'S ALIBI
RICHARD'S BUTCH (I CANT PUT ANOTHER VOWEL)
RACIST GRANDMA
GREEDY HOOPER
I ATTENDED CITY COUNCIL AND WAS OUTRAGED AT HOW ONE OF OUR LYNWOOD CITIZEN SPOKE AGAINST ANDREA FOR YELLING, AND KICKING HER OUT OF CITY HALL BECAUSE SHE TOOK A COOKIE, THE REFRESHMENTS THAT BELONG ONLY TO COUNCIL MEMBERS, ACCORDING TO HOOPPER, SHE DENIED IT.... NONE OF THE COUNCIL MEMBERS PUT HOOPER IN HER PLACE!!
Think about it, they can't put her in her place because she's the one that covers up for them. Simple!
Here's one and i think everyone should agree with me.....I recently heard that some people from the city of lynwood refer to her as....."CRUSTY".
So my question is? Should we call her CRUSTY or CRUSTY THE CLOWN?
I think CRUSTY alone is the best nickname for her!
What do you people think? Please let me know!!!!!
If so......Hello CRUSTY, Hello CRUSTY, Hello CRUSTY
Has anyone requested or does anyone plan to ask for the PUBLIC INFORMATION for CRUSTY. In order for the community to find out once and for all what ANDREA HOOPER is actually getting paid for and what she is considered. "A CITY EMPLOYEE or AN ELECTED OFFICIAL".
If this is not going to happen by the community.
CITY COUNCIL should ask for this information. I mean, I would think they would have the power and the right to know how and what she is being paid for!!!!
I don't know why CRUSTY just doesn't resign.
Nobody wants you there CRUSTY!!!! Nobody likes you!!!! You are a worthless, good for nothing CITY CLERK.
YOU ARE PERHAPS THE WORST CITY CLERK THE CITY OF LYNWOOD HAS EVER HAD.
CRUSTY, ARE WE THERE YET?
CRUSTY, ARE WE THERE YET?
CRUSTY, ARE WE THERE YET?
he, he, he. She is the only one we have since many years! you are right about that.
that's a good one "crusty" i vote for this one
i asked for the information posted here. we'll put it as soon as we get it from the city.
I heard Andrea did'nt show up to work yesterday. Does anyone know what CRUSTIES reaction was when she found out about the public request? What did she say? Was she mad or sad? How did she behave all day? Did she take it out on anyone?
By the way when do you people think the Public Request has to be ready?
Hey, the public request should be ready quick. Unless of course, it's delayed by the Clerk's office. Don't forget that she has the habit of making time longer, but there can always be another law suit like the one they made in the past.
In yesterday meeting, the City Council informed that there will be cuts, this means that some employees will loose their jobs. As expected, there's all kinds of rumors going around and people going crazy. Before cutting people at the bottom, they should look else where.
The Council should start with Hooper. She should be fired as a City Employee and her position eliminated. She can remain an elected official until she is voted out.
Then they should fire the ex City Manager that we're still paying for.
Then they can get rid of one of the assistant City Manager positions. Lest not forget that we had 2 assistant City Managers.
Then they need to start getting rid of the people who have claims agains the city and are getting paid.
Then they can conract with South Gate Police, may be they'll be cheaper, and we'll get rid of the very expensive services of the Sheriff Deparment, and their most of the time incompetent service.
I hope the council shows some signs of cuts too. We need to stop spending an average of $2,500 (I did the math, and it's true) on traveling and meetings.
