SAN DIEGO (CNS) - California restaurant owners from across the state, including San Diego County, filed government claims today seeking refunds of state and local fees assessed during the COVID-19 pandemic, saying public health orders have forced them to shutter their doors or operate under capacity restrictions even as they're charged fees for liquor licenses, health permits and tourism assessments.The claims were filed in San Diego, Los Angeles, Orange, Sacramento and Monterey counties. Claims will also be filed in San Francisco, Fresno and Placer counties, according to the restaurant owners' attorneys.Plaintiffs' attorney Brian Kabateck said, ``Restaurant owners are obligated to pay these government fees just to operate, yet the same government entities who have collected those fees have forced these businesses to close their doors or drastically restrict operations due to the pandemic. We simply want the government to return those fees to those restaurants who followed the law and closed.''The state has 45 days to respond to the claims, which are necessary precursors to a potential class-action lawsuit.The move was supported by the California Restaurant Association, whose president and CEO, Jot Condie, said, ``Even when the restrictions are lifted, the devastating impact on the restaurant industry will extend for years. Restaurants have not received any form of relief. Easing fees would help enable establishments to stay open and keep vulnerable workers employed.'' Restaurants, like many other industries, have been hit hard by the pandemic, leading to the permanent closures of many establishments.A survey by the California Restaurant Association found 63% of responding owners said they have not received rent relief. About 41% said their restaurants could remain economically viable with a 50% indoor capacity limit, which is only permitted in counties within the yellow or orange ``tiers'' in the state's color-coded status system.Kabateck said, ``It's offensive and tone deaf for these entities to enforce these rules and charge fees for licenses and permits these businesses can't use.'' 2131

SAN DIEGO (CNS) - A San Diego man was sentenced Friday to more than six years in prison for operating a million Ponzi scheme that caused investors to lose more than million.In addition to the 75-month sentence, Jonny Ngo, former president and CEO of NL Technology, LLC, was ordered to pay nearly million in restitution for bilking investors out of money he alleged would be used to fund wholesale purchase orders of smartphone screens and other electronic goods.Prosecutors said the funds were actually spent on personal expenses, such as "a home, luxury cars and gambling."Ngo, 34, told investors that NL Technology was supplying smartphone screens to several buyers, including two that each ordered about million worth of NL Technology products, and prepared false financial and bank statements to back up his claims, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office.Ngo pleaded guilty to a mail fraud charge last year."Ngo swindled and conned innocent investors out of their hard-earned money to support his lavish lifestyle," FBI Special Agent in Charge Suzanne Turner said. "The false representations about wholesale purchase orders worth millions and supporting phony business records were all lies. Ngo's actions serve as an example of the unconscionable greed that fuels these all too common fraud cases." 1327

SAN DIEGO (CNS) - After being reassured that motorists' privacy would not be compromised, the county Board of Supervisors Wednesday unanimously approved a plan to electronically collect license plate data as part of a vehicle- emissions study aimed at improving air quality.Under the plan, the county Air Pollution Control District will use automated license reader software to analyze vehicles at 12 intersections in disadvantaged communities, including Barrio Logan, Logan Heights, Sherman Heights and western National City.A state grant will pay for the ,500 automated license plate reader system, which will collect license plate numbers and vehicles' weight, make and model.Jon Adams, assistant director of APCD, said the data will be collected in a secure method and kept at the district office, and would not be shared with anyone else. He said information, including license plate numbers, will be deleted after three days.Other agencies, including the California Air Resources Board and Port of San Diego, already use the same software, Adams said.APCD officials met over the last two months with various community groups and the Portside Community Steering Committee, which includes representatives of private and public organizations.The district's Community Air Protection Program was developed in response to Assembly Bill 617, which is aimed at reducing exposure to air pollutants in disadvantaged communities.At its Sept. 11 meeting, the Board of Supervisors expressed concerns over potential privacy violations and asked district officials to present alternatives.Two residents urged the board to support data collection, saying the end goal of cleaner air is a worthy cause.Sandy Naranjo, a Portside Steering Committee member, said "information and transparency are crucial for our communities, because we are tired of getting sick."Joy Williams, an Environmental Health Coalition member, said her group has been working in Barrio Logan and surrounding communities for decades and heard numerous complaints about pollution sources, including mobile ones.Supervisor Greg Cox said any time the county can get so many groups to agree, it's a good sign and "makes it a pretty easy decision on our part."Supervisor Kristin Gaspar said she appreciated the reassurances relating to privacy."I believe that we have the best intentions with this program," Gaspar said.Supervisor Nathan Fletcher said no group of children should be "eight times more likely to develop asthma because of where they live or the color of their skin.""We have to take swift, bold action and spend money in a way that represents the greatest investment," Fletcher said, adding he hopes this program gets underway quickly. 2716
