As someone said, Lisa Maxwell, former Director of Re-Development for Lennar Corporation is close to the "money and power" people. She was also a lobbyist for the Builder's Association. One of her contributors, not only now but last year as well, is lawyer and lobbyist, Ron Book. You can't be much closer to the most powerful unless you have something in common.Ron Book has not been jailed but he has had civil penalties: In 1995, Book pleaded guilty to 4 misdemeanor charges and was fined $2,000. For an additional penalty, he agreed to pay $40,000 to charity.
Maxwell has never met a developer that she didn't like. Not only did Maxwell get a $500 campaign contribution from Ron Book, she received the same from the Developers and Lobbyists:
Gold Coast Alliance for Jobs, 2101 Corp. Dr, Boynton Beach
Floridians for Sensible Growth, address as above
Citizens for Economic Growth, address as above
Families for affordable Housing, address as above
Skeet Jurnigan, a lobbyist from Ft. Lauderdale who only lists a PO Box, a violation.
Another interesting contributor is Carla Blockson, failed candidate for District 2.
There were several people on Maxwell's report with NO address listed, a violation of Election Reporting Laws.
Some guy on Golfview gave $500 twice, against election law.

Follow the money. Maxwell's ties are in Broward County. I would not be surprised if she wanted Fort Laud here for all her developer friends to get wealthy on this poor city. She complains about the Casino but you can bet if it were one of her friends it would be ok. The bad guys were in power once and look what they did here. She's all about development, good or bad. If you sleep with dogs you get fleas.
