FAIR POLITICAL PRACTICES COMMISSION Warning Letters to Mayor Sue McCloud, Richard Stewart, ReElect Mayor McCloud Treasurer & Clayton Berling, ReElect Mayor McCloud Assistant Treasurer
ABSTRACT: Warning letters, dated April 14, 2010, were sent to Mayor Sue McCloud, ReElect Mayor McCloud Treasurer Richard Stewart and ReElect Mayor McCloud Assistant Treasurer Clayton Berling by the Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC). “Warning letters are issued when the Enforcement Division has enough evidence to prove a violation, but determines it is not in the best interest of the People of California to issue a fine. Individuals who receive warning letters are put on notice that future violations will result in a fine.” The Warning letters were the result of mayoral candidate Adam Moniz filing a complaint with the FPPC alleging that Mayor Sue McCloud failed to report “potentially thousands of dollars in advertising expenses” for ads appearing in The Carmel Pine Cone and Monterey County Weekly between February 28, 2010 and March 27, 2010. After the complaint was filed and prior to the issuance of the Warning letter, Mayor Sue McCloud accused Adam Moniz of being “dead wrong,” engaged in “character assassination” and “negative campaigning” and owed her an apology. McCloud further stated that she had reported her campaign finances "exactly the same way I've done every year." The Warning letters are reproduced in their entirety and COMMENTS are made regarding the vindication of Adam Moniz and the inappropriate, incorrect and unprofessional comments of Mayor Sue McCloud.

Warning Letter Re: FPPC No. 10/257: Susan McCloud. ReElect Mavor McCloud. Richard Stewart, Treasurer, and Clayton Berling, Assistant Treasurer
Dear Ms. McCloud:
The Fair Political Practices Commission (the "FPPC") enforces the provisions of the Political Reform Act (the "Act") found in Government Code section 81000, et seq. This letter is in response to a complaint filed against you that alleged you failed to disclose expenditures in connection with newspaper advertisements. We are closing this matter with a warning letter.
The FPPC has completed its investigation of the facts in this case. Specifically, the FPPC found that you failed to disclose on your pre-election campaign statement Form 460, expenditures associated with the purchase of political ads that ran in the Monterey County Weekly and the Carmel Pine Cone newspapers.
Section 84211, subd. (b) requires candidates to disclose the use of their campaign funds. Specifically, subdivision (k) requires the itemization of any expenditure of $100 or more. An expenditure is made on the date the payment is made or the date the committee receives the goods or services, whichever is earlier. (Section 82025.) When amounts owed by the committee for goods or services that are received but are not paid for by the end of the reporting period, Schedule F of the Form 460 is used to disclose this information. If the exact amount is unknown, an estimate may be reported. (Regulation 18421.6.)
Your actions violated the Act because you failed to disclose the expenditures for the newspaper advertisements as accrued expenses. However you filed an amendment to disclose this information and the information was available to the public prior to the election. Therefore we are closing this case with a warning letter.
This letter serves as a written warning. The information in this matter will be retained and may be considered should an enforcement action become necessary based on newly discovered information or future conduct. Failure to comply with the provisions of the Act in the future will result in monetary penalties of up to $5,000 for each violation.
A warning letter is an FPPC case resolution without administrative prosecution or fine. However the warning letter resolution does not provide you with the opportunity for a probable cause hearing or hearing before an Administrative Law Judge or the Fair Political Practices Commission. If you wish to avail yourself of these proceedings by requesting that your case proceed with prosecution rather than a warning) please notify us within ten (10) days from the date of this letter. Upon this notification} the FPPC will rescind this warning letter and proceed with administrative prosecution of this case, If we do not receive such notification} this warning letter will be posted on the FPPC's website ten (10) days from the date of this letter.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have regarding this letter.
Sincerely,
REDACTED

1 The Political Reform Act is contained in Government Code sections 81000 through 91014. All statutory references are to the Government Code, unless otherwise indicated. The regulations of the Fair Political Practices Commission are contained in sections 18110 through 18997 of Title 2 of the California Code of Regulations. All regulatory references are to Title 2, Division 6 of the California Code of Regulations, unless otherwise indicated.
COMMENTS:
• Mayor Sue McCloud’s statement that she had reported her campaign finances "exactly the same way I've done every year" implies that she violated the law in 2000, 2002, 2004, 2006 and 2008. Moreover, her claim that she has reported her campaign finances exactly the same way does not absolve her of being in violation of the law.
• Mayoral Candidate Adam Moniz was right to file a complaint with the Fair Political Practices Commission. As he stated, "a candidate's obligations under the law are not a joke, and she needs to take them seriously. This is about transparency and following the rules."
• Mayor Sue McCloud’s deflection away from the merits of the complaint to accusing Adam Moniz of engaging in “character assassination” and “negative campaigning” is a typical tactic of Sue McCloud. Instead of Sue McCloud demanding an apology from Adam Moniz, she owes Adam Moniz and the people of Carmel-by-the-Sea an apology.

COMMENTARY: The Personal Vendettas of Mayor Sue McCloud
Personal Vendetta: Revenge (synonym vengeance) is a harmful action against a person or group as a response to a (real or perceived) grievance.
Despite Mayor Sue McCloud’s consistent rhetoric for the past ten years about “common sense and mutual respect for one another’s views” and moving “forward together,” Sue McCloud has hyper-polarized our community by vilifying individuals with accusations of “character assassination,” “personal attack,” assailing individuals' arguments as “misinformation” and pursuing personal vendettas.
Case Study I: John Mandurrago, Property Owner and Developer
Years ago as a Planning Commissioner, Sue McCloud wrote and distributed a fax to her fellow planning commissioners regarding a proposed project which concluded “if we all hang together on this we can kill this project.” Not only was this act a violation of the Brown Act, but she later as mayor pursued a personal vendetta against John Mandurrago. In a recent letter to the editor, John Mandurrago explained, as follows:
Having lived and done business in Carmel for over 22 years, I have watched Mayor Sue McCloud pursue personal vendettas and expose Carmel to extraordinary legal liability.
In 1999, for example, a Carmel City Hall employee handed me a fax that was addressed to all planning commissioners discussing one of my projects. The fax was sent by Sue McCloud and, after putting forth substantive arguments against my project, it concluded “if we all hang together on this we can kill this project.”
Several elected Carmel officials told me McCloud’s fax was unethical conduct and a violation of the Brown Act. I was quickly offered a settlement in exchange for not suing the city. This is why McCloud was not reappointed to the planning commission.
Shortly after McCloud was elected mayor, Rich Guillen asked me to meet with him and McCloud at Carmel City Hall. McCloud had a scowl on her face, leaned over the table, and threatened me. She said “things are going to be different from now on.”
Carmel residents and Carmel business owners deserve an ethical mayor. Sue McCloud is not an ethical mayor.
Moreover, John Mandurrago’s Petition filed in Monterey County Superior Court against the City of Carmel-by-the-Sea on February 27, 2009 (M97273), states, as follows:
Carmel’s almost four year delay in certification of the EIR is wholly arbitrary and irrational subjective EIR requirements based on vindictive ill will aimed at Petitioner and his project and is intended to delay and ultimately deny the Project based on animus, ill will and wholly arbitrary and irrational subjective requirements “such as loss of great architecture” when the City has no written regulation, policy, resolution, General Plan, zoning ordinance, or any factual documentation to support this funding of unmitigated substantive adverse impact in the environment pursuant to CEQA.
The above recited actions of Respondents’ and Defendants’ in depriving Petitioner of his state and federal protected constitutional rights were done with evil motive or intent, or with reckless or callous indifference to Petitioner’s rights requiring putative damages to be imposed.
Case Study II: Melanie Billig, President of Flanders Foundation
If the criteria used to determine the fate of the Flanders Mansion Parkland Property had involved the integrity of Mission Trail Nature Preserve and planning policy, namely the elimination of in-holdings, not the creation of in-holdings, then Mayor Sue McCloud would have solicited proposals for the lease use of the Flanders Mansion, placed the proposals on a public meeting agenda for public consideration and negotiated in good faith with representatives of the Flanders Foundation. Instead, for ten years, Mayor Sue McCloud campaigned exclusively for the sale of the Flanders Mansion Parkland Property resulting in two “rubberstamp” city councils voting in 2005 and 2009 to authorize the sale of the Property; and even after a Monterey County Superior Court Judge ruled in 2007 against the City in Flanders Foundation v. City of Carmel-by-the-Sea, et al. (M76728), the mayor continued authorizing expenditures of taxpayer dollars toward the sale of the Property, rather than consider lease options. Therefore, a reasonable inference is that Sue McCloud was guided by personal animosity towards the individual behind the lease use of the Flanders Mansion Parkland Property, Flanders Foundation President Melanie Billig.
Case Study III: Jane Miller, On-Leave Human Resources Manager
In on-leave Human Resources Manager Jane Miller’s court file pertaining to her lawsuit against the City, information shows that four former senior management city employees had claims similar to Jane Miller, namely “hostile” work environment and being force into early retirement, and in at least two of those cases, the city employees waived claims to secure a monetary settlement. Furthermore, in all four cases, the City negotiated with the attorney for the four city employees until a settlement was reached. However, in the case of Jane Miller, the mayor and city council not only failed to response to Jane Miller's attorney’s May 2008 letter and Jane Miller’s October 2008 letter, but they failed to negotiate in good faith prior to Jane Miller filing her lawsuit against the City in June 2009. Additionally, Mayor Sue McCloud demeaned Jane Miller with her dismissive "it's nothing" characterization of Jane Miller's legal complaint. Therefore, a reasonable inference is that Sue McCloud’s decisions were guided by personal animosity towards the individual personifying city employees with complaints regarding “hostile” work environment and being forced into early retirement.
In conclusion, the mayor of Carmel-by-the-Sea is expected to speak to all Carmelites, not merely to her supporters, and build consensus through argument and persuasion - not by vilifying individuals and pursing personal vendettas. Moreover, Mayor Sue McCloud’s personal animus against individuals has guided her governmental decision-making, rather than an objective analysis of the merits of the issues, including the fates of the Walter Burde bank building and Flanders Mansion Parkland Property and the complaints by city employees of sexual harassment, employment discrimination and retaliation. To wit, 736 Carmel voters who voted for mayoral candidate Adam Moniz recognize the aforementioned, while the 847 Carmel voters who voted for incumbent Mayor Sue McCloud will someday in the future have to account for their support of the current mayor of Carmel-by-the-Sea.

Commentary: Two heroes named Jane Miller and Stephanie Pearce
THE DEEDS revealed and alleged in on-leave Human Resources Manager Jane Miller’s letter to the Mayor and City Council, dated October 23, 2008, and legal complaint filed June 17, 2009 and Miller, Jane Kingsley v. City of Carmel-by-the-Sea, et al. (M99513) court file are enough to make every Carmelite ashamed of the conduct of City Administrator Rich Guillen, Mayor Sue McCloud and Council Members Paula Hazdovac, Gerard Rose, Ken Talmage and Karen Sharp.
It’s horrible to contemplate what Jane Miller endured for years and years at City Hall. She “watched City Administrator Richard Guillen make professional decisions based upon favoritism, gender, age and inappropriate relationships. Guillen is a manipulative boss who needs attention from and cultivates relationships with women at work into something which can turn them into “work spouses.” When those women respond to his behavior, Guillen rewards them financially and professionally. On the other hand, Guillen gets rid of women employees if they don’t respond to his needs.” In April 2008, City Administrator Rich Guillen told her that he wanted to eliminate her position of Human Resources Manager, although he had no legitimate justifiable budgetary or organizational reason. “In a very poisonous way, Guillen combined work and his version of sexual attraction – frequently calling himself “the boss” as he referred to me as a “hottie” or his “blond worker bee.”” Additionally, “Guillen has made bad decisions regarding salaries and work responsibility based on favoritism that has not only created a discriminatory working environment but also has drained away City funds. The unprecedented raises, benefits and higher “Job Titles” he gave to Christie Miller (between 2003 and 2008, Guillen increased Christie Miller’s salary by about 83%) and Heidi Burch (between 2005 and 2008 Guillen increased Heidi Burch’s salary by about 70%) were decisions that were not supported in the budget or by their qualifications.”
As discouraging as the deeds themselves is the knowledge that City Administrator Rich Guillen has seemingly gotten away with it. He was never placed on administrative leave or terminated and remains city administrator. Moreover, the Mayor and City Council failed to respond to Jane Miller’s letter even in the face of Jane Miller’s plea of “what you cannot do is ignore the conditions that allowed Guillen to do what he has been doing. My career, my health, and the City’s well-being are at stake” and failed to expeditiously conduct a full, objective and independent investigation of her complaints. And so the Mayor and City Council have also seemingly gotten away with it as they have not been held accountable for their unethical, uncaring and incompetent conduct.
The fear that motivated Jane Miller to keep silent over the years, unfortunately, was not unfounded. While she now believes it was “a mistake” to not challenge Guillen “for his inappropriate actions,” her fear appears in retrospect to be well founded given the circle the wagons mentality of the Mayor and City Council and the dismissive “it’s nothing” attitude of Mayor Sue McCloud regarding Jane Miller’s complaint.
So for Jane Miller, her years of silence are understandable. Even now, she surely did not want to file a lawsuit against the City of Carmel-by-the-Sea and revisit what happened to her at City Hall in a forthcoming jury trial on September 20, 2010.
And for former city employee Stephanie Pearce, her recent letters to the editor about Carmel lacking “integrity” describe a city government which is “badly broken.” She recounted “hostile punitive actions” carried out by City Administrator Rich Guillen against long time dedicated city employees (and approved by Mayor Sue McCloud), “personal vendettas” against individual employees and a mayor working “hand in glove” with the city administrator “whose inappropriate and unprofessional relationships have created a city workplace imbued with an atmosphere of stress, hostility and fear.” Moreover, Stephanie Pearce wrote that “the open scandal that has pervaded city hall and demoralized city staff is not just “negativity” that must be kept confidential pending legal resolution. It is an egregious betrayal of the public trust to allow creation and continuance of a hostile workplace environment, showing profound lack of respect for city workers.”
And so for Stephanie Pearce, there was plenty of motivation to let the whole thing stay in the past.
Yet there they were, Jane Miller and Stephanie Pearce, one filing a public lawsuit and the other writing letters to the editor, informing the public of Carmel’s lack of integrity.
For this, Jane Miller and Stephanie Pearce deserve the community’s deepest thanks. They are risking a lot, and they are doing it for everyone else’s honor and integrity.
It’s horrible to contemplate what Jane Miller endured for years and years at City Hall. She “watched City Administrator Richard Guillen make professional decisions based upon favoritism, gender, age and inappropriate relationships. Guillen is a manipulative boss who needs attention from and cultivates relationships with women at work into something which can turn them into “work spouses.” When those women respond to his behavior, Guillen rewards them financially and professionally. On the other hand, Guillen gets rid of women employees if they don’t respond to his needs.” In April 2008, City Administrator Rich Guillen told her that he wanted to eliminate her position of Human Resources Manager, although he had no legitimate justifiable budgetary or organizational reason. “In a very poisonous way, Guillen combined work and his version of sexual attraction – frequently calling himself “the boss” as he referred to me as a “hottie” or his “blond worker bee.”” Additionally, “Guillen has made bad decisions regarding salaries and work responsibility based on favoritism that has not only created a discriminatory working environment but also has drained away City funds. The unprecedented raises, benefits and higher “Job Titles” he gave to Christie Miller (between 2003 and 2008, Guillen increased Christie Miller’s salary by about 83%) and Heidi Burch (between 2005 and 2008 Guillen increased Heidi Burch’s salary by about 70%) were decisions that were not supported in the budget or by their qualifications.”
As discouraging as the deeds themselves is the knowledge that City Administrator Rich Guillen has seemingly gotten away with it. He was never placed on administrative leave or terminated and remains city administrator. Moreover, the Mayor and City Council failed to respond to Jane Miller’s letter even in the face of Jane Miller’s plea of “what you cannot do is ignore the conditions that allowed Guillen to do what he has been doing. My career, my health, and the City’s well-being are at stake” and failed to expeditiously conduct a full, objective and independent investigation of her complaints.
