REALLY ANONYMOUS?

Gordon Shepherd, President of the Mesquite Vistas Home Owners Association Board, in
his Presidents Message 2014 to the Mesquite home owners, when referencing the
petition that was circulated for his recall from office wrote, "The significant word in
this petition movement is anonymous".

He implied the petition comes from an anonymous source and is an attempt to discredit
the procedure.

There is nothing which is more public than the petition. Every envelope delivered by the
U.S. Postal Service is labeled "Mesquite Vistas Concerned Citizens" or MVCC. Unless
Mr. Shepherd believes that the names of the several hundred signers should be
published, charging that the petitions come from an anonymous source is baseless.

He has taken quotes out of their context and packaged them in his President's
Message, hoping to slander the efforts of those Mesquite Vistas homeowners requesting
to be recognized and heard.

Petitions are part of a legitimate and essential democratic process available to the
electorate to deal with allegedly unsavory elected officials.

Mr. Shepherd was invited, and attended, the MVCC website rollout to the public. That
website, mesquitevistasconcernedcitizens.weebly.com hosts a large amount of
information regarding the group and the people participating.

Anonymous really Gordon Shepherd?
