TBSC has been working hard to end not only the rights of homeless and poor people but EVERY citizen's access to public spaces also. TBSC wanted parks stay away orders and they got them. TBSC wanted RVs to be banned from parking in Santa Cruz and they got it. TBSC wanted a curfew at Cowells Beach and they got it. Now TBSC wants a Main Beach curfew and even more limits to our liberties in Santa Cruz!!!!!

In his Downtown Commission application Cube mentions having a finance degree and his work experience with Paine Webber in Manhattan, and that he lived in New York City for nearly 10 years, but he neglects to mention his time at J.W. Barclay & Co., Inc. On April 24, 2002, the SEC instituted public administrative proceedings against Emmanuel P. Cube, aka Dexter Cube, stating he willfully violated the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and found that he defrauded his customers. The SEC stated in its findings that Dexter Cube made unauthorized purchases and sales of securities in the accounts of at least two customers, and that he "churned" the account of at least one customer. He controlled the customer's account, and traded excessively in it in light of the customer's investment objectives, the SEC stated. Cube was also found to have made unsuitable purchases and sales of securities in the accounts of at least two customers. Dexter Cube was barred by the SEC from association with any broker or dealer for five years and was ordered to pay a penalty of $40,0000. This wasn't the only fraud case against Cube in which he was fined thousands of dollars, and the true nature of Cube's past is still to be discovered.
