Re: Excessive Political Contributions, Theft of City Files, <br /> Corporate Suspension and Derogatory Statements by Applicant and Ryan Ogulnick <br /> November 12, 2013 <br /> Page 6 <br /> each of their affiliates' attempts to secure approvals for the 301 Project constitute clear and <br /> unequivocal violations of California Revenue and Taxation Code Section 23301 and Mr. <br /> Ogulnick and his affiliates are therefore presumably subject to the aforementioned penalties <br /> under Section 19719. To the extent the members of City Council and/or Planning Commission <br /> have accepted contributions from, advocated for, and/or sought to advance the interests of or <br /> convey rights to the Applicant and/or Mr. Ogulnick, they may also be subject to the penalties set <br /> forth under Section 19719, especially now that the City of Santa Ana is on notice that the <br /> Applicant is a suspended corporation. As such, past and/or present attempts by the Applicant to <br /> obtain approvals from the City of Santa Ana are likely voidable and the current application <br /> pending before City Council should be discontinued, and then re-submitted and processed in <br /> accordance with established City procedures to ensure the City does not continue to wastefully <br /> pursue a clearly tainted process with no hope of surviving public scrutiny. <br /> Please immediately advise me of what steps you plan to take to address these issues. You <br /> must not allow Mr. Ogulnick's bullying tactics or derogatory and defamatory statements in <br /> writings to third parties — including his statements that you are "a gossipy woman" or that the <br /> members of City Planning Staff are "retarted" [sic), to cow or dissuade you from fully <br /> investigating the actions and violations described herein. On a broader level, the City and its <br /> Councilmembers should seriously consider whether they will choose to support individuals who <br /> see fit to make statements disparaging to women and the mentally handicapped, and what <br /> affirmative steps they have taken, or will take, to eradicate the proliferation of such vitriol within <br /> the Santa Ma community. <br /> Thank you in advance for your continued attention to the foregoing. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> ILUS GP US, LLC <br /> By: 7CeZ <br /> Barry Levine <br /> Enclosures (20) <br /> cc: Kamala D.
