Cerritos
Measure A – NO CONSENSUS
———–Cerritos City Council————
#1)Sam Sultan Ahmad
#2) Mark E. Pulido *
#3) Frank Aurielo Yokoyama.
After hearing the past 2 Forums, all 3 candidates are the best vying in this city. Republican Party has only has- beens, repeat candidates, which have put the city on downhill financial spiral, compared to the last 4 yrs of Pres. Bush Jr. These 3 fine candidates, 2 of them, broad casted their cell phone numbers, as were not hiding behind Barnyard Doors, Mayors Real Estate Offices, making decisions away from public.
Democrats addressed the Cerritos Center for Performing Arts, where the Republicans said nothing of importance.
Meas A, BED TAX. Just vote no. Yes, vote will only increase hotel prices, as aging homes, residents will be staying in the hotel during remodeling of their home and during remediation of their homes during insurance claims. Citizens of Cerritos, need affordable housing, to keep sales tax here and not float to surrounding cities. BED TAX will only start taxing the rental homes, which are renting out bedrooms, because of empty nesting issues.

1. Nepotism as 2 of his appointees are blood relatives example Property Preservation Commissioner Levi Javier is his cousin, while Nora Benzon on the Fine Arts & Historical Commission is one of his aunts; Of course he appointed his best friend Frank Yokoyama to the Planning Commission and then appointed Frank’s sister Tatiana after Frank Yokoyama lied about his suspended law license and was caught electioneering in the Cerritos Performing Arts Center Polling Place.
2. He has at his and Frank Yokoyama’s South Street campaign office 3 paid campaign workers who were not Cerritos residents before they moved them in, registered to vote at those offices, while not illegal it is very unethical.
3. He has walked off the dais at least 22 times in the last 4 years for conflict of interest reasons (relating to his job with Alan Lowenthal) [who does he represent the Cerritos residents or Congressman Lowenthal?].
4. He and Frank Yokoyama and their friends bullied the ABC School Board in 2013 into giving back Grace Hu’s $750K donation, of course this happened after the district secured $2.25 Million in Federal and State matching funds, costing the district $750K which could have been spent on other capital expenses
5. He throws temper tantrums (sometimes walking off the dais for in a fit (not for conflict of interest) or grandstands whenever he is not getting his way
6. Last, his part in the 2003 Martin Ludlow scandal, where he worked for Ludlow’s campaign off mostly off the books, with him getting paid by a union for mostly campaign work on Ludlow’s campaign using a BS report as the only cover to justify the money they were not reporting to the FPPC. New Details of Ludlow Investigation Revealed http://www.docstoc.com/docs/156173877/Recipient-Committee-Campaign-Statement-Cover-Page
From the article:”Reached at his state office, Pulido said he had no comment when asked about the work. However, John Casey, Lowenthal’s chief of staff, said Pulido has told the senator about the case and his cooperation with authorities.
“He [Pulido] doesn’t believe it was an improper situation,” Casey said, adding, “I have 100% confidence in Mark Pulido.”
In a state-required disclosure of his income, Pulido reported that in 2003 he was paid up to $10,000 by Local 99 to serve as a “consultant” and write a report, and up to $1,000 by “Ludlow’s political funds” to serve as a “campaign worker” for Ludlow.
Pulido told authorities that he was assured his pay by the union would be justified by writing a report for Local 99 regarding the Ludlow campaign.
Two people familiar with the research report said it was arguably not worth what he was paid, and mostly included material taken off the Internet.”
Of course Mark’s defense of the Skynight program is indefensible when Cerritos is hemorrhaging money and needs to make cuts to the budget, but then again Mark’s answer is to eat into the reserves until they are gone and Cerritos defaults on it’s obligations to the bond holders forcing the city council to either raise fees and taxes on the residents and the businesses in the city even more than they already have or declare bankruptcy.
