Lee & Associates Principal Plowman Denies Involvement In Wapner Graftfest

By Mark Gutglueck
(ONTARIO–August 11) An attorney for Carol Plowman, a senior vice president and founding principal of Lee & Associates Commercial Real Estate Services in Ontario, this week characterized as “categorically false” reports linking her to an effort by Alan Wapner, the president of the Ontario International Airport Authority Board of Directors, to force airport staff to undertake the sale of 198 acres of airport property to a consortium consisting of Lee & Associates and Sares Regis at a price far below the actual market price of that land.
“Ms. Plowman did not participate in the proposed acquisition of the airport property, provide campaign funds in exchange for governmental action or any business benefit, or enter into any bribe, payoff, or quid pro quo with Wapner or any other public official,” Theodore Stream, of the law firm Stream Kim Hicks Wrage & Alfaro, which represents Plowman told the Sentinel in a letter dated August 11.
The letter was precipitated by the Sentinel’s July 28 coverage of developments in the FBI’s nine-year ongoing investigation into activity involving the Ontario International Airport Authority that had taken place that day in the form of FBI and other federal agents serving search warrants at the homes and offices of Wapner, who in addition to being the president of the airport authority is also an Ontario city councilman; San Bernardino County Fourth District Supervisor Curt Hagman, who is also a board member with the airport authority; Frank Lizarraga, a one-time Ontario planning commissioner who is Wapner’s personal attorney; James Su, the owner of EDI Media; the business office of Andy Sehrmelis, a major campaign donor to Wapner, Hagman and other local elected officeholders; and at a mansion in the 600 block of North Canon Drive of Beverly Hills. The day of those raids, the FBI also served subpoenas for the production of documents at Ontario City Hall and the administrative offices of the Ontario International Airport and the Ontario International Airport authority.
Stream’s registering of objections with the July 28 article, which ran in the July 31 edition of the Sentinel, extended to a passage within it that chronicled the experiences of Kelly Fredericks, who served as the first executive director of the airport authority and manager of the airport following the transference of ownership and management of the airport to the City of Ontario/the Ontario International Airport Authority from the City of Los Angeles in 2016, and Mark Thorpe, who succeeded Fredericks as the airport authority’s executive director in 2017. The Sentinel article cataloged how Wapner, shortly after the local takeover of the airport, began pressuring Fredericks to inventory airport property to ascertain what parcels might be classified as “surplus,” and be sold off to interested buyers. The article related how Fredericks was reluctant to have the airport/airport authority divest itself of property, even it was not at that time being put to aviation-related use, in that it might be later needed for operational expansion, and described how Fredericks’ resistance to Wapner’s demands ultimately resulted in his being pushed out of the executive director/airport managerial role by the board, essentially at Wapner’s insistence.

County Coming Through With $11 Million For SB Homeless Assistance

Next Tuesday, it is anticipated that the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors will come through with a final $11 million installment to allow the City of San Bernardino to proceed with the San Bernardino Hope Campus.
The navigation center is intended to serve as an effective remedy to the unending proliferation of homelessness in and around the county seat.
Considerable effort and tens of millions of governmental dollars have gone into continuous but most uncoordinated homeless relief efforts locally. While a few of those have proven effective, there has been extensive criticism of those efforts overall, which their critics have blasted as vehicles for the diversion of funds into the pockets of individuals exploiting an unregulated system.
San Bernardino municipal officials say they are committed to finding a real solution to the challenge of homelessness in their city, which is more acute than it is anywhere else in the county. They say that if entrusted with funding, they will not squander it and the programs they will put in place will consist of tangible buildings in which people will be able to reside and not have to be on the streets.
In February 2023 the San Bernardino mayor and city council declared homelessness a local emergency and three months later announced plans to create the 200-bed San Bernardino Hope Campus on the site of the former School of Hope, formerly an educations center for special needs students located at 796 East 6th Street in San Bernardino that had closed down in 2022 and had been purchased by the city.
The city forthrightly pursued tapping into various forms of revenue to complete the project and fund its operations, including seeking state and federal grants, some which entailed matching funds to be put up by the city. This activity was carried out, despite substantial chaos in the city at the administrative level because of the November 2022 resignation of former City Manager Robert Field in the aftermath of Mayor Helen Tran’s election earlier that month and the city’s seeming inability to land a permanent city manager replacement.

Wapner Resigning From All Commission, Board & Adjunct Posts, Effective Friday

(ONTARIO–August 12) Electing to jump rather than being shoved, Ontario City Councilman is resigning all of his appointive assignments growing out of his status as a city councilman. That will include his beloved position[s] as both a member of the Ontario International Airport Authority Board of Directors and that panel’s president. He will also walk away from his membership, as the City of Ontario’s representative, on the board of directors of Omnitrans, which oversees local rapid transit operations consisting essentially of bus lines and of which he is the current president; the San Bernardino County Transportation Authority, of which he was formerly the president; the San Bernardino County Council of Governments, of which he was formerly the president; the Southern California Association of Governments, of which he was a past president; the National Association of Regional Councils; the California Association of Councils of Government.
He dropped his letter of resignation off at the Ontario City Clerk’s Office unsigned on Tuesday, saying he would return on Friday, August 14, to sign it and make it official and binding. Thus, at present, he retains his status as a member of all of the boards, commissions, committees and governmental adjunct positions conferred upon him, most of which came as the result of a voted by the city council, of which he remains a member.
The crisis which has forced the resignations materialized on July 28, when the FBI served search warrants at Wapner’s home, the home and office of San Bernardino County Fourth District Supervisor Curt Hagman, who is also a board member with the airport authority; Frank Lizarraga, a one-time Ontario planning commissioner who is Wapner’s personal attorney; James Su, the owner of EDI Media; the business office of Andy Sehrmelis, a major campaign donor to Wapner, Hagman and other local elected officeholders; and at a mansion in the 600 block of North Canon Drive of Beverly Hills. The day of those raids, the FBI also served subpoenas for the production of documents at Ontario City Hall and the administrative offices of the Ontario International Airport and the Ontario International Airport Authority.

Upland Council Using Ballot In Business License Reset Attempt

Upland’s most successful businesses would see the cost of their city business licenses jump by a whopping 3,240 percent, from the current $864 to $28,000, if a majority of the city’s voters support a measure the Upland City Council on August 3 placed on the upcoming November ballot.
All five of the council’s members – Mayor Bill Velto, First District Councilwoman Shannon Maust, Second District Councilman James Breitling, Third District Councilman Carlos Garcia and Fourth District Councilman Rudy Zuniga – voted to place a measure revamping the city’s business licensing regulations, including the pricing schedule on yearly registrations on the November 3 ballot.
Two years ago, the Upland council initiated a similar move, only to lose its nerve in the face of questions about what it was trying to accomplish. On July 22, 2024, the council voted to send to the San Bernardino County Registrar of Voters a measure revising the city’s business license schedule for inclusion on the November 5, 2024 ballot. While that plan called for making a modest $4 reduction in the cost of a business license for 2,930 of the city’s 3,083 business grossing under $100,000 per year, it entailed a somewhat complicated formula for calculating any particular business’s licensing fee, such that 618 of the city’s 2,049 businesses making over $100,000 but less than $1 million per year and 18 of the 596 business in the city making over $1 million per year were also to see their annual licensing fees reduced, while, 153 businesses making under $100,000, 1,422 businesses making $100,000 to $1 million and 578 businesses making over $1 million per year would have their taxes increased. The measure, if passed, would have meant that those operations in the top earning brackets would have seen their permits to conduct business in the city jump from $864 to $29,500, subject to an annual consumer price index increase of up to 5 percent per year.

Sheriff’s Deputies Kill Mentone Man After He Shoots At Trespassers On His Property

A 78-year-old Mentone man was fatally wounded this afternoon by gunfire directed at him from several San Bernardino County sheriff’s deputies while he was barricaded in his home.
The fatal shooting took place after a man, identified by reliable individuals knowledgeable about the incident as Paul Ronald Selby, had himself used a firearm to shoot at Southern California Edison contract employees who were trimming trees and ground vegetation in the 300 block of King Street in Mentone as part of an effort to reduce the summer fire hazard and had come onto his property, located at 325 King Street.
None of those workers was hit, and all of them retreated and took cover. A 9-1-1 call went out immediately.
Deputies were dispatched to the location from the Yucaipa Sheriff’s Station. The first of those arrived at the scene at 10:49 a.m., followed by other units. It was at that point that Selby retreated into his house where he and his wife, 74-year-old Linda Selby, barricaded themselves.
As the law enforcement presence on King Street mounted, the sheriff’s department dispatched an armored vehicle and a special weapons and tactics team to the area. Two crisis negotiators, one known to utilize an aggressive, high-pressure confrontational strategy and another more accustomed to an empathetic approach toward possible deescalation, were sent to the command post for the control perimeter around the incident.

Ontario, Despite Being Flush With Cash & Getting Residents To Hike Sales Tax In 2022, Is Seeking Another Sales Tax Increase

Four years after Ontario’s voters passed a one-cent-per dollar sales tax override, the city council this week moved to put another half-cent sales tax increase on the November 3 ballot.
That action came despite Ontario’s existing ranking as the most economically well-situated municipality in San Bernardino County.
The move raised ire among a contingent of the city’s residents, who took note of multiple considerations, which they said the four members of the city council who supported raising taxes on their constituents had disregarded.
The city council considered the item calling upon the San Bernardino County Registrar of Voters Office to place the measure on the ballot at a specially-called meeting held on Friday, August 7 just ahead of the registrar’s deadline to finalize the ballot that will be considered by the county’s voters in November. The August 7 meeting was attended by Mayor Paul Leon and councilwomen Debra Dorst-Porada and Daisy Macias and Councilman Jim Bowman. Councilman Alan Wapner was absent from the meeting, which was held on the last day the county registrar of voters would accept a ballot measure request from a city.
Voters will decide if they want to increase the sales tax within the city just four years after approving Measure Q, a previous sales tax increase of 1 percent in 2022, which raised the sales tax from 7.75 percent to 8.75 percent.
If approved by voters, the measure will increase the sales tax paid by customers at Ontario’s retail establishments from the current 8.75 percent to 9.25 percent. At present, Ontario, along with Chino, Fort Irwin, Landers, Mentone, Yucca Valley, Adelanto, Bloomington Barstow, Apple Valley, Rialto, Redlands, San Bernardino and Fontana among cities, incorporated towns and unincorporated towns in San Bernardino County impose an 8.75 percent sales tax within their boundaries. Only neighboring Montclair, with its 9 percent sales tax, and Wrightwood, with its 9.75 percent sales tax which has come about as a result of being located in two counties – Los Angeles and San Bernardino – simultaneously, have higher sales tax than Ontario. If the voters pass the measure the council approved for the ballot in November, Ontario’s 9.25 percent sales tax will exceed that of Montclair, making it the city in San Bernardino County with the highest sales tax.

Upland Solons Using Ballot In Business License Reset Attempt
