CACI Died...And No One Noticed

The Citizens Action Coalition (CACI) has finally bitten the dust. It had been on life support for a few years, and formally considered disbanding as early as August, 2007.

Speaking to a longtime CACI personality, I was told the group had "faded away" with the remaining money in the treasury dispersed to the Virginia Beach Taxpayers Alliance (VBTA) and the Pembroke Manor Civic League. The latter had hosted CACI meetings in it's clubhouse.

With CACI gone, can the VBTA be far behind?

I was thinking the same thing. I considered ending the post with "Now on deathwatch: the VBTA itself."

Run by the same people who drove CACI into the ground, also looking hopelessly backward, no clue as how to connect with the minority communities, etc. The VBTA was decimated November 4, and the 2010 election should be the fork into them.

CACI gone. Who cares?

Let me understand something. "If CACI Died ... And No One Noticed" how is it that you are writing this post?

Reread: I happened to stumble onto the story in talking to a former CACI member.
