Hi Thomas Smith RB
10/2/24, 8:13 AM
Just turned you into FBI for false letters in mailboxes, false stories on Poway Votes, and false ND persona Thomas Smith RB - they will be contacting you
Have a great day
I find this and some of your prior text messages to be disturbing and threatening. Please consider this to be a formal request that you stop texting me: Thank you.

Mayor Vaus,
This is formal request asking you to resign.

You just cost City of Poway $20,000 legal fees
and maybe more than $100,000 in legal fees
due to your illegal activity allowing
Councilmember Pepin who did not live in
Poway to vote for Chris Pikus appointment to
Council.

Wendy, please post this as PDF slide for my
Councilmember presentation at next Council
meeting.

Unless I'm missing an email, | don't see where
they're trying to kick you off. They actually give
you details on how you can continue serving
remotely.

And why are you trying to be manipulative?
Bringing up Jared is supposed to scare me into
following your orders?
Jared never called me a "wallflower" who
(oKey-J ph ame lomr-lahvaanlialep
Jared hasn't accused me of joining the "Vaus
Swamp" and "Vaus Circus".

W-1a-1e me lol-\Jenme-|o)(eMilc-manlelia|e)(-m-lale] a] messages at me at 4 am.

Jared isn't the one who demanded that | speak
up for him when he wouldn't even show up to
meetings to defend himself.

Jared isn't the one who ignores, unfriends, and
blocks me whenever he feels like it and then
contacts me again only when he wants
something.

You are being abusive.

Please stop. | need to be able to work with you
but | won't put up with bring treated like this.

You are definitely missing it
You are very naive

is allowed to disclose their location —
therefore | am NOT allowed to attend remotely,
and you and Council will kick me off after 60

You illegally and unethically allowed a
Councilmember to vote on Council who did not live
in Poway. I'm quite sure you and Rutan and Tucker
researched every loophole you could to do so. You
and your firm are extremely unethical. Please
respond to Poway Municipal Code 2.04.070 C
below:
"Termination of residency in a district by a member
of the City Council shall create an immediate
vacancy for that Council district unless a substitute
residence within the district is established within
30 days after the termination of residency."

How are you going to be mad about the
censure when you're the one who said (quite
cheerfully):
"Go ahead and vote against me. It won't matter.

I'll still be mayor."
And, that WAS the best thing to do for Poway.

You are out of control, costing the city tons of
money, and making my staff miserable. For
