NEW! ADOPT A CYPRESS COMMUNITY CAT
NEW! ADOPT A CYPRESS COMMUNITY CAT
On Friday, May 17, 2024 Vice President Stephen Schoonmaker directed the Cypress Safety to begin harassing me. Officer Wollenberg confronted me immediately after I pulled in to feed the cats. Normally, they ignore me entirely. Drive right by and don't even acknowledge that I'm alive. But tonight minutes after I pulled in Officer D Wollenberg pulled up and told me that I could no longer park my car next to the fence and feed the cats. He said that I would have to purchase a daily parking pass and park in a parking stall. He also said I couldn't park in the staff parking at the west side of the maintenance. After feeding this small colony of cats in parking lot 6 I went to feed a couple more cats that someone had abandoned and have been living on the west side of Building 34.
I've been feeding these two cats for months. I even spayed the female because she got pregnant and Cypress College doesn't have a sane policy about how to handle cats. I have always parked in the "Deliveries Only" spot which isn't staff parking and because it's after hours and there are no deliveries. This seemed to work for months until I called Cypress Safety on an employee for harassing me driving his work cart at me and just missing me by a foot. So, it seems that VP Schoonmaker is turning the table and is having his Cypress Security harass me while I'm on Cypress College property. It wasn't enough to have Tim Noriega, the guy that sets the traps and traps cats off the record harass me. Now retribution is a Cypress College policy coming directly from Vice President Stephen Schoonmaker's office.
Officer Wollenberg is writing this ticket at 6:00 PM on Friday evening when school is out and the school is preparing to allow the parking lot to be turned into a flea market and foul Valley View Street with trash blowing across four lanes of traffic all day long and trample all over the landscaping of Cypress College. Really living up to being a "Safety Officer."
Officer Wollenberg pulled up, opened his car door, didn't say a word, and started writing a ticket and wouldn't say a word while he wrote the ticket.
The interesting thing about this targeted harassment is that in the first parking lot there was only one other car and that car did not have a student id parking pass on the windshield nor did it have a day pass. Officer Wollenberg wasn't the least bit concerned about that vehicle. I took photos of the car and the windshield to prove that it didn't have a parking pass. When this harassment case goes to court, this will be evidence of the targeted harassment by Cypress "Safety" officers.
I had to go get water and a water dish because the maintenance workers placed steel guards under the gates in the northern lot today so that a water dish for the cats couldn't be pushed under it. This is how petty VP Schoonmaker has become and how committed the leadership of Cypress College is at harassing these cats and harassing me. On most days Tim Noriega destroys the dishes. I have on videotape a worker named Brian admitting to destroying water dishes when it it 105 degrees out and a litter of kittens was depending on this water. I have video tape of Tim stealing the water dishes so the cats can't get a drink of water. THIS is the policy of Cypress College. I reported this person to the President's office and they did NOTHING!
Tim Noriega, the worker shown, had stolen the water dishes every day last week and this week. But he left one behind today after the steel guard was put in place. Certainly to taunt me. But I was able to remove it. I went and got another gallon of water and a water dish. VP Schoonmaker, now Dr. Thayer, is clearly complicit in the harassment of the community cats of Cypress College. HIS employees in the maintenance department and in the "Safety" department are working hand in glove to harass me and to harass the cats. Without a doubt, Schoonmaker was behind the harassment of me personally. These "Safety Officers" didn't take it upon themselves after more than two years of watching me feeding these cats to start writing me tickets.
Perhaps it was the head of Cypress Security, Craig Lee, who told me the other day when students were protesting against the genocide in Palestine, that he had to go deal with "Pro Hamas protesters". Maybe he's the genesis of this harassment of me but he doesn't do anything without the approval of VP Schoonmaker and now President Scott Thayer.
Officer D. Wollenberg is just doing his job which is whatever VP Stephen Schoonmaker and Craig Lee dictates. $250k a year and this is how VP Schoonmaker runs Cypress College. Dr. Scott W. Thayer should be ashamed of himself for allowing this to continue.
