I agree...I would have kicked-in a few bucks myself to keep this guy as the main operator. I rarely post a comment in these forums, but I felt compelled to post about this. This dook fu kim guy probably won't give a crap about Frisbee golf and have zero personality to prove it.

This Lee guy who is taking over is a selfish me-first person who feels like he is entitled to everything. A lot of tennis players dislike dealing with him too. And he doesn't know a thing about disc golf or being sincere to people.

Why are you whining when the guy who lost the lease is not? The county had no alternative but to go with the high bid. Like it or not, that's how the system works. It's designed to provide the best deal to taxpayers and preclude unfair contracting practices. If you don't like the rules, don't bid ... or bid high to be confident you'll win the bidding process.

Mr. Lee selfish? Come on, you want a place to hang out with the boys after a game. Mr. Lee is only guilty of being a good business man. He is even maintaining the tennis courts, did the other guy do that? Why don't you just say what's really upsetting you...a Korean man moving in on a white man's job.

It's called EDCO. Have business contact address in Buena Park. So far they suck. I don't mind them coming at 0700 hrs., but they seem to be in such a hurry that they leave trash all over the streets. It's like they don't care if the can gets dumped in the hauler or not, and as long as it's about halfway near there, they are driving off. Some of the trash never makes it to the truck and just falls into the street. It's happened along my street, and I've had co-workers who live in LM and say it's been going on in their neighborhood as well.

Also, when are they going to finally change out the cans? They bitched and left enough sticky notes on everything that everyone on street left cans out for a week. Still nothing.
