IndyMac Antonovich Calls U.S. Forest Service Failure Leaders to to Approve Aerial Firefighting Policies ‘Stupid’ Settle Class-Action Suit Leaders of the failed IndyMac Bancorp which was headquarted in Pasadena have agreed to settle a classaction lawsuit for $6 Million according to a report from the Associated Press. Michael W. Perry, the former CEO of the Pasadena-based bank, and Scott Keys, the former chief financial officer, are named as co- defendants. IndyMac collapsed in July 2008, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. took over the mortgage lender in a flurry of failed banking businesses. IndyMac was one of the largest mortgage originators in the United States, and its collapse was indeed one of the biggest bank failures in U.S. history. Massive protests outside IndyMac banks drew public attention to the thousnads who lost their life’s savings four years ago. The payment will be made in exchange for a dismissal of the claims against the defendant, according to federal court papers filed last week.

In the attached letter to the United States Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack, Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich expressed his disappointment in the 3-year delay by U. S. Forest Service to change its ban on nighttime water-dropping flights to combat wildfires. “It has been nearly three years since the Station Fire devastated most of the Ange-

les National Forest and killed two Los Angeles County firefighters, and the U. S. Forest service continues to ignore experts’ recommendations to change its nighttime aerial firefighting policy,” Antonovich said. Recently, Tom Harbor, the Forest Service’s National Director of Fire and Aviation Management, said that his agency was revaluating a

policy change to determine if it would be “the right kind of investment” for taxpayers. “This delay is stupid and making it worse as we are on the brink of the fire season and another potential for catastrophic losses,” Antonovich added. In the letter, Antonovich refers to the Los Angeles County Fire Department’s Station Fire report that rec-

Monrovia Councilman Larry Spicer Apologizes for Silence by jim e.winburn Admitting to criminal convictions now expunged from his record, Councilmember Larry Spicer apologized for his “past actions and for not making this statement earlier” at a Monrovia council meeting on Tuesday, Jul. 3. Regarding his criminal record that was dismissed on Jul. 23, 1992, he said, “My reasons for not publicly disclosing many of the details about a DUI and credit card violations is because I paid what I was fined, I served my probation, turned my life around, and started giving back to the community by serving others.” While some in the community expected Spicer to resign, others turned out at the council meeting to voice their support for the interim councilman, who was sworn into the Monrovia council January 2012. But the controversy, defused for the moment, lingers with the air of smoldering tension over trust and transparency. Over the last couple of months, allegations have surfaced regarding Spicer’s past behavior toward his wife, children and neighbors. But Spicer did not speak on these allegations raised by neighbors who have accused him of being a bully. And Spicer’s detractors seemed to be nowhere in sight at the Jul. 3 council meeting. Instead of a resignation, the public received an apology, which even moved Councilmember Tom Adams to admit he no longer wished for Spicer to resign, saying, “I appreciate Mr. Spicer’s comments this evening, and I accept that apology.” So inspired was Mayor Mary Ann Lutz by public comments in support of Spicer, and no less impressed by

fellow council members who expressed the same, that she quoted a lesson right out of the Good Book, encouraging people to examine themselves before casting the first stone. However, between the public apology and appropriate parable, a different sort of lesson received less play at the meeting - the oldest lesson in politics: the idea of transparency. And, according to Adams’s comments, a whole lot of controversy could have been dodged if Spicer would have come clean to begin with. “I think that the big crime is not what occurred in the past - the big crime was not acknowledging it,” Adams said to former Mayor Bob Bartlett during public comment. “I think if Mr. Spicer did what he did tonight a long time ago, he would have garnered the entire respect of this community. But when you wait, things get worse … and in the long run, it becomes even more embarrassing than it needed to be.” Monrovia resident and attorney Ernest Gonzales, who has known Spicer for nearly 50 years, disagreed. “I think the fact that Larry has made mistakes, and whether he’s disclosed it or not, I don’t think is the issue,” Gonzales said. “I think what the issue is when Larry comes to this job at night, is he prepared? Does he do his job? And that’s what the focus should be.” His reasoning was that the City Council should be spending their time on important community issues, and “not on something that happened 20 something years ago,” a sentiment supported by most people at the meeting, who signaled their agree-

I knew it was telling me to press different numbers for different information. I pressed them all. They all spoke Spanish. I didn't. I hung up and dug out an old phone bill. I found a number. I dialed it and it actually had a human on the other end. The human spoke English. Things were looking up. He said he would take care of everything. The next bill would be in English.

It's the cowboy drivers at the self-serve gas station and the pump that won't stay on at that same station. It's the computer that I told to save my document and instead it ate it. When I tried to call it up again, all I got was a blank screen. I would wish it indigestion but then I'd have to make it well and I haven't passed computer 101 yet. It's the chair that attacked my toe. My poor toe was innocent. It was minding its own business just passing by and whack. The chair just reached out and hit it. Just for no reason except to make me holler. It worked. It is the long distance phone bill that came today. It is not the amount that ticks me off. That part is actually a pretty good bargain.

An award-winning chef, some of the country’s top beverage experts and a restaurateur’s decadelong research and life-long dream, all converge at Trattoria Neapolis 336 South Lake Ave, Pasadena.This 150-seat eatery serves a hybrid of Italian traditional and California market-driven cuisine by Chef Bryant Wigger. A 7,000 pound imported Neapolitan wood-burning oven sits at the heart of the restaurant (proprietor Perry Vidalakis said “We had to reinforce the floor before we brought it in”), plus a custom wood burning grill and a dedicated smoker. Trattoria Neapolis soft opened July 10 with dinner service. Lunch service is scheduled soon. The restaurant’s allstar team was meticulously assembled by restaurateur/ owner and Pasadena lo-

cal, Perry Vidalakis. GM James Bottoms is a veteran of three Michelin-starred restaurants. Chef Wigger - most recently at the Four Seasons Los Angeles and formerly executive chef of Zagat’s best Italian restaurant in San Diego - takes pride in hand-crafting pasta, bread and salumi in-house, not to mention his signature roast garlic gnocchi with smoked pork shoulder.Vidalakis has also assembled impressive beverage programs, each chosen with the same focus on top quality with a wide range of affordable choices and special reserve selections.The cocktail program was created by the “Godfather of the L.A. cocktail scene” Vincenzo Marianella. The program focuses on craft versions of classic and original cocktails made with quality spirits, fresh fruits, juices and herbs such as a homemade fruit marmellata, and house infused cucumber vodka. Marianella works closely with in-house bar manager Ken Baranda. Christina Perozzi, noted by Los Angeles Magazine as the best beer sommelier in Los Angeles, is the beer program architect, with 14 craft beers on tap and more by the bottle. In-house beer sommelier Hallie Beaune aims to show diners how truly delicious a beer pairing can be when partnered with great food.

The wine program is designed by Diego Meraviglia, 4th level sommelier and VP of the North American Sommelier Association. Inhouse sommelier Dominic Ta features 24 wines by the glass, a main list of 50 wines by the bottle, and a “Sommelier’s Corner” of major wines from Sassicaia to Opus One.The restaurant was designed by Hatch Design Group, one of Los Angeles’ premier designers, and features a stunning balcony, private wine room, and an airy garden room all working harmoniously to combine the warmth and hospitality of an Italian trattoria with the finishes of marble, imported tile, wrought iron, and custom woodwork. Trattoria Neapolis is open for dinner nightly 5pm to 10pm, and 5pm to 11pm on Friday and Saturday. Lunch Service is coming soon, as is take out from the dedicated To Go counter/Bottega, which will sell imported Italian goods and fresh products made in house. Other coming soon treatrs include late night dining, specially hosted beer tastings and classes, winemaker dinners, and Aperitivo (aka Happy Hour). Ample free parking is available behind the restaurant. For more information visit trattorianeapolis.com, or call (626) 792-3000 to book a reservation.

Monrovia Couple to Celebrate 72 Years Continued from page 1

few people who make it past the seven-year-itch, let alone 72 years of the marriage marvel that Milly and Herb have the benefit of today.

This year’s installation took on a more formal setting at the Arcadia Community Center Friday, June 29th. Guests were assigned seating. As always, a large representation from City Hall was present as were other community leaders. I can attest to the diverse and delicious Chinese buffet served.

Of interest to the audience was a video prepared by former ACA President Dr. Edward Wong showcasing their past 30 years of activities and community service. Outgoing President Josephine Louie was recognized for her leadership and service during the very successful past year.

ACA is one of the most active organizations in Arcadia. Mayor Pro-Tem Mickey Segal was the installing officer. The new President is Joanna Liang. Vice Presidents are Sunday Xu, Lily Mak and Beryl Bal; Secretary Pearl Chen and TreasurerPast Presidents Alice Wang and Josephine Louie. There are 27 additional Board of Directors and seven Advisory. Former ACA President David Lee Received numerous honors for service to the ACA and community. Emcee duties were shared by Angeline Chen and Dr. Edward Wong. Their Community Service Awards were presented to Arcadia Masonic Lodge, Gene Wallace, Lodge Master, accepting, and Arcadia Chamber of Commerce, Scott Hettrick for President Pete Siberell.

Wonder Dog Ranch Hosted Fireworks Camp Kept Dogs Safe Wonder Dog Ranch, Monrovia’s newest dog day care and boarding facility, scheduled a special “Fireworks Camp” for dogs on the Fourth of July. Fireworks can be very scary for dogs – the noise and flashing lights can stimulate a fight or flight

response in many dogs. When left alone, this response will result in their efforts to run away as fast and as far as they can. Animal control officers and shelters report that July 5 is often their busiest day of the year as they have gathered up the many

dogs who ran away from the loud noises the night before. Best wishes to Wonder Dog Ranch, located south of Old Town Monrovia at 220 Taylor St. Call (626) 205-2501 for reservations or visit the web site www. WonderDogRanch.com.

Volunteer Appreciation Brunch Hosted by Arcadia Historical Museum Honorees were treated to a delicious brunch on the Museum patio overlooking the Santa Anita Golf Course on Saturday, June 25th, at 8:30 a.m. The menu offered a selection of eggs, breakfast meats, various fruits, juices, selection of muffins

and coffee. Hosted by Curator Dana Dunn and Education Coordinator Lindsey Sun. Nine Arcadia High School Student Volunteers were honored and presented Certificates of Appreciation (see photo).

Adult volunteers who were able to attend were Museum Commissioners Ruth Gilb, Vince Foley, Victor Wu, Ruth Dunlop. From the Museum Foundation Jim Helms and Floretta Lauber. Other Volunteers were Jaye Caldwell and Peter Bomba.

During one of the final meetings of its club year, Soroptimist International of Altadena/ Pasadena honored two non-profit organizations with service award money at a luncheon held at the Women’s City Club in Pasadena. The Soroptimists gave The Women’s Room at Friends in Deed and The Door of Hope $2,000 each to help with their continuing efforts to assist the homeless and women in need in the Pasadena area. The Women’s Room is a daytime refuge for women who are homeless or at risk. They serve lunch to these women several times a week and offer services such as warm showers, free dentistry and counseling. The Reverend Pat O’Reilly, Executive Director of the Ecumenical Council Pasadena Area Congregations, which sponsors The Women’s Room, accepted the monetary award from Soroptimists. The Door of Hope in Pasadena is a faith-

based organization that offers transitional housing for homeless families and equips them with the means to rebuild their lives. Their goal is to help families with children to move from homelessness to self-sufficiency and permanent housing. Tim Peters, Door of Hope Executive Director, and Donna Arnds, Director of Development, were on hand to accept the award. Soroptimists specified that $1,000 of this money be slated for a room sponsored by the club. During the spring of 2012, Soroptimists of Altadena/Pasadena honored Door of Hope’s case manager, Lonnene Vreede, with the Women’s Opportunity Award. This award is given annually to a woman who has overcome adversity and is supporting her family as head of household. The mission of Soroptimist International is to help women and girls in their local communities and around the world.

Forest Service Aerial Firefighting Policy Called ‘Stupid' Continued from page 1 countability Office concluded that the Forest Service’s procedural and communication failures during the Station Fire forced other agencies to delay their fire-fighting operations. “Ineffective at fighting wildfires on the urban-wildlife interface, their prohibition of night-flying aircraft prevented early containment as County Fire pilots waited anxiously on the tarmac,” Antonovich said. “It is imperative that significant structural changes are imme-

diately made before the next major wildfire destroys more lives, personal property and our national forest.” “It has been nearly three years since the Station Fire devastated most of the Angeles National Forest and killed two Los Angeles County firefighters, and the U. S. Forest Service continues to ignore experts’ recommendations to change its nighttime aerial firefighting policy,” said Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich. “It is imperative that significant structural changes

are made before the next major wildfire destroys more of our National Forests, personal property or any more lives.” Congressional hearings and the Government Accountability Office’s report revealed that it was the U.S. Forest Service, as the lead agency, that failed to communicate effectively, and forced other agencies to stand idly by as the boots-onthe-ground waited for orders to proceed from its command center in Idaho. On a motion by Supervisor Antonovich, the Board of Supervisors will send another five-signature letter to the United States Secretary of Agriculture asking that the Forest Service adopt Los Angeles County Fire Department recommendations, which were approved unanimously by the Board in 2009, that included nighttime air attacks, procedural changes, tougher brush clearance requirements and the use of mechanized firefighting equipment.

Monrovia High Student to Compete in Baton Nationals

Temple City’s Second Annual Compost Giveaway - July 14 The City of Temple City and Athens Services team up for a second time to host the Annual Compost Giveaway, Saturday, July 14, 9 a.m. – 1 p.m. at Temple City Park, 9701 Las Tunas Dr. “Last year, residents began lining up at 6 a.m. to receive the free compost,” said Public Safety Officer Bryan Ariizumi. This year, to increase efficiency, the event will be held as a drivethrough. “Residents will stay in their vehicles and drive into the parking lot, at which time

they can load their compost.” According to Ariizumi, the material is organic and locally sourced, made from yard waste, paper litter and street sweeping debris collected citywide by Athens. Repurposing these materials helps keep the city clean while allowing residents to be a positive part of the recycling loop. Event participation is limited to Athens customers of Temple City. A recent trash bill or a photo ID addressed to an Athens-serviced prop-

erty is required. Participants should bring sturdy containers (i.e., trashcans, plastic containers or buckets with handles), and may fill up to 15 gallons of free compost per household. Residents with bags (i.e., trash bags, shopping bags, rice bags, etc.) will be turned away from the event. Supplies are limited so those interested are encouraged to arrive early. For more information, contact Ed Chen at Athens, (626) 233-5524.

While she had come close to raising the $5000 necessary for the trip, she had not quite reached her goal. According to Bruce Staller, it was at the point that the Monrovia Schools Foundation stepped in. Staller said that while this expenditure was not within the normal parameters of those funded by the Foundation which usually supports programs in the schools, “a special need was seen here.” “I started calling former song girls, yell leaders and majorettes and asking them for help,” Staller said. “We were able to raise $1600 to help her go to the competition.” To obtain the final results after July 20th, check

Roger Federer Wins His 7th Championship at the Prestigious Wimbledon

We have Trained Tennis Players in the San Gabriel Valley for the Wimbledon By Harry Sneider

National tennis champion Andrew Park with personal fitness coach Harry Sneider along with his brother Steve working out at Sneiders Family Fitness. -Courtesy Photo

As a trainer of many different sports over the years, I have had many requests to get outstanding players in shape for major tournaments. It all started around 1976 when Wimbledon champion Stan Smith of Pasadena asked me to give him a training program to improve his overall conditioning. Dr. Leroy Perry and I worked together to help him reach his potential as a champion. Since then we have worked with dozens of players in the San Gabriel Valley that have gone to national championships, a primary example is Andrew Park who won the Junior National Championship at age 14 and at age 18. Women players have also come to us for training at all levels. The one that Sarah and I remember most that we trained for the Australian

Open as well as the Wimbledon was Jolene Watanabe. This young player with dynamic power upset the number two player in the world, Jennifer Capriati. Jolene trained very intensely before this competition working out at least three times a week. We did a lot of rebounding, used a slide for her lateral movement, did plyometric drills, tennis weight training, stretching, talked about how she could become a winner, gave her dietary tips and more. To be a champion like a Roger Federer or Serena Williams one has to have razor like focus as well as world class conditioning with experts that know what to do to get them at a world class level. Some of the athletes that we have worked with have gained major college scholar-

ships. It’s not surprising that many top players in the San Gabriel Valley are also scholars. Many of these players score very high on the SAT as well as on their academic achievements in high school. It’s also not surprising that the mind, the body and the attitude are primary ingredients to a champion level tennis player. We feel we have had some of the most experience of any trainers in the San Gabriel Valley helping players reach their true potential. Let me give you some insights working with champion athletes in general: 1. Champions have a desire to be the best. 2. They seek the best trainers and coaches available. For example, we have Rusty Miller who has a tennis ranch in Anaheim Hills (714-998-4000) as one of the top coaches. He has produced quite a number of champions that have gone all the way to the international tournaments like the US Open, the French Open, the Australian Open as well as the Wimbledon.

City of Pasadena Wants You to Beware of Bats The Pasadena Public Health Department cautions the public to avoid contact with bats. Recent reports from the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health indicated bats are testing positive for rabies in the Pasadena area. So far this year, 15 bats found throughout Los Angeles County have tested positive for rabies, County Health Officials said. Although on average there are eight to 12 rabid bats detected locally each year, there were 38 bats found

throughout the county last year that tested positive for rabies. Pasadena Public Health Officer Dr. Eric Walsh reminds everybody that “if you see a bat, never touch it.” Instead, contact authorities or the Pasadena Humane Society at (626) 792-7151 to capture and properly handle the bat, Dr. Walsh said. Anyone who has touched a bat or who may have had contact with bats should call the Pasadena Public Health Department Nursing Unit

immediately at (626) 7446089. Also make sure that your dog or cat vaccinations are current to prevent rabies infection. For more information, go online to the Rabies Brochure on Pasadena Public Health Department’s website at http://cityofpasadena.net/publichealth/ environmental_health_sevices/. For more than 120 years, the Pasadena Public Health Department has worked to promote and protect the health of the Pasadena community.

El Monte, Others to Consider Withdrawing from SGVCOG COG’s executive director Nick Conway, 60, was arrested June 29 on four felony counts of conflict of interest in relation to his work with the SGVCOG, according to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office. He has since posted bail. The DA’s Office alleges Conway’s personal

business - which is contracted by the COG to serve as its staff - gained financially from contracts obtained for the COG, amounting to a serious conflict of interest. The DA’s Office alleges Conway’s company received an additional $143,000 in one fiscal period. Conway’s arraign-

ment is set for July 23 in Superior Court. Now, in a rush to withdraw from the Council of Governments, some of the 31 members are already withdrawing or considering doing so. The City of Walnut is slated to vote on the matter this week, with a strong likelyhood that the city will withdraw.

Beat The Heat – Find a Cooling Center by susant motander

Southern California is enduring another of its regular heat waves. Back east when the temperature crawls over the century mark communities often set up Cooling Centers. Here that practice is rare; however there are ways to beat the heat. As Cesar Monsalve, head of the City of Duarte’s Parks and Recreation Department pointed out the situation in the east is different in that they have a higher humidty factor with which to contend: “Back east they have the heat index to deal with.” Monsalve did say that while Duarte did not have a formal cooling center, there were plenty of place to cool off in the community. There is the Senior Center at 1610 Duarte Road which nor-

mally caters to those over 55. There is also the center at Royal Oaks Park, 2627 Royal Oaks Drive, which is open from noon to 4 p.m. during the summer. “If some people have a real problem, I’m sure that we could accommodate them at city hall. We have air conditioning, restrooms and drinking fountains,” Monsalve said, It was the same story in the local cities contacted. The suggestions from Monrovia and Arcadia were of the same nature: Check the hours of the local community centers and libraries. The Arcadia Community Center is located 375 Campus Drive and the Library at 20 W. Duarte Rd. Monrovia Public Library, 321 S. Myrtle

is open Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., and on Thursday, Friday and Saturday from noon to 5 p.m. The Monrovia Community Center is regularly open 6 days a week. Call the center at 2568246. There were other suggestions made from those who had found their own ways to beat the heat. One woman in Pavilion in Monrovia suggested doing shopping in the heat of the day (she was reading a newspaper in the Starbucks section of the grocery store when she made the suggestion). Perhaps it is just a matter of thinking of a place you like that just happens to be air conditioned. And there is always the beach.

Bryson 911 Call Released The San Gabriel Police Dept. has released a the 911 tapes of the incident last month with John Bryson, the former US Commerce Secretary. Statements of those involved in the traffic accidents with then Commerce

Secretary John Bryson thought he was a danger to himself and others as well as being under the influence. Bryson had “therapeutic levels” of the sedative Ambien in his system when he was involved in

traffic accidents in San Gabriel and Rosemead on June 9, according to police records. Bryson was not charged by the DA and has since resigned from his cabinet post in the Obama administration.

Former Monrovia City Manager Scott Ochoa does not expect the City Council to spend any more time on the issue of restructuring his home mortgage loan. Since the city took no action at its Jul. 3 meeting, Ochoa, who became Glendale’s new city manager in January, will need to look at other options to pay off the remainder of his debt to Monrovia. To speed up his move to Glendale, Ochoa asked the city to restructure a $275,000 home loan that Monrovia officials granted him in 2004. Ochoa’s proposal was to pay off $200,000 at the close of escrow and to continue to owe the city $75,000 on which he would pay 2 percent interest, according to Councilman Thomas Adams. Now Ochoa must acquire a $75,000 loan from a private lender to sell the house on Madeline Drive. Although the situation has left town along with Ochoa, the issue continues to be contested within the local community in terms of the Monrovia council making a politically correct decision versus a financially sound one. And the local debate reflects no less the council’s split vote at the last meeting: two-for and two-against, with one abstention. Some believe that by

amending Ochoa’s terms the city would be able to recover the loan immediately, while fully securing the $75,000 balance owed the city. Monrovia Mayor Mary Ann Lutz, who voted to approve Ochoa’s request, agrees that the city would have benefited financially if Ochoa paid $200,000 as soon as escrow closed and a higher interest rate of 6.25 percent on the $75,000 balance. However, Councilman Adams voted against Ochoa’s request despite what some consider better terms for Monrovia to receive more money - and to receive it more quickly. And though Adams is concerned about the political message behind this sort of deal, he does not believe the math adds up to better terms for the city. Adams said the current loan is paying the city 5 percent interest on $275,000. Ochoa’s proposal was to pay off $200,000 at the close of escrow and to continue owe the city $75,000, on which he would pay 2 percent interest. But, 2 percent interest on $75,000 versus 5 percent on $275,000 does not equate to more money. According to Adams, the mayor then proposed to raise the interest rate to 6.25 percent on $75,000, which would still

generate less revenue than 5 percent on $275,000. “This does not get us more money,” said Adams, who believes the much larger issue is the political message of favoritism. “It was one thing to offer a loan to an employee you are trying to attract,” he said. “It’s a whole different thing to offer a loan to someone who’s leaving you. And it just didn’t sit well with me.” Adams told this reporter that he believes this is a personal finance issue that can be solved on a personal level without the City of Monrovia being involved. And, it apparently seems to be shaping up that way for Ochoa. Since the discussion on this issue began in the community, Adams said that many people have asked him if the city would be willing to loan them some money because of finding themselves in a “financial jam.” Such questions from one’s constituents have the potential to opening a type of Pandora’s box of politics if not discussed openly and honestly. Knowing this, Adams simply explains that the city doesn’t normally handle this kind of a loan. “As a matter of fact, I don’t know if we’ve ever done it before, and we very well may never do it again.”

NWS Warns of Heat Wave Continued from page 1

fire weather concerns to interior portions of southwest California. This week temperatures are expected as follows: Valleys, 92-105 degrees. Lower Mountains, 90-105 degrees. Antelope Valley, 100-107 degrees. As the upper level flow turns southeasterly...some monsoonal moisture will likely be drawn into interior portions of Southern California. This will result in a slight chance of afternoon and evening thunderstorms across the mountains of Los Angeles, Ventura and Eastern Santa Barbara counties and Antelope Valley Wednesday through Friday. Continued hot conditions combined with the threat of lightning will maintain elevated fire weather concerns across the mountains and antelope valley through

much of the week. Persons planning to be outdoors early next week should practice heat safety tips. Keep your body hydrated with plenty of water and avoid strenuous activity during the hottest part of the day. To provide relief from the heat for the elderly and others who face heat-related health difficulties and stress, the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health will open cooling centers throughout Los Angeles County. A list of the location and times of operation of the 55 cooling stations in Los Angeles County can be accessed at http://antonovich.com/heat-alert-los-angeles-county-opens-coolingcenters/ or by dialing 2-1-1. Symptoms of dehydration and heat cramps

include dizziness, fatigue, faintness, headaches, muscle cramps, and increased thirst. The Department of Public Health recommends several ways to manage the heat: - Never leave children, elderly people, or pets alone in a parked vehicle. - Wear light, loose fitting clothing to stay cool - Drink water often. Avoid drinking alcohol. - Check on those in your neighborhood who have limited mobility. - Stay in an air-conditioned area during peak heat hours such as a mall, park, or library. - Avoid unnecessary sun exposure. When in the sun, wear a hat, preferably with a wide brim. - Don’t exercise vigorously outside during the hottest hours of the day.

Monrovia Council Will Not Rework Loan to Former City Manager by susan motander At its July 3rd meeting, the Monrovia City Council decided not to rework the loan it had made in 2004 to former City Manager Scott Ochoa. Ochoa had written a letter to the Council requesting a modification of the agreement. By taking no action the original agreement stands. In 2004 Ochoa was appointed City Manger. At the time he and his wife had just purchased a home in the Mt. Washington area. The council felt that it was important for the City Manager to be a Monrovia resident. To that end, the council approved a loan of $275,000 as a second on the residence Ochoa bought at 214 Madeline Drive in Monrovia. Ochoa had been paying 2% interest on that loan since 2004 until the conclusion of his employment with the city with his payment being applied to the interest only. When he left the city employ his payments increased. Ochoa was then paying the full 5% interest with part of the payment being applied to the principal. Mark Alvarado told the Council that Ochoa has to date paid approximately $100,000, mainly in interest with a bit toward the principal. When Ochoa left the City last December, the entire loan became due in December of this year, in accord with the original terms of the agreement with the city. The agreement called for the loan to be repaid by one year after leaving his employment with the city or at the close of escrow upon the sale of the house. Ochoa is now in escrow to sell the Monrovia home and move to Glendale. According to Ochoa the house is being sold for $36,000 less than he paid for it. In order to conclude the escrow, the second deed of trust that secures the city loan, must be cleared, i.e. the city must be repaid. To that end, Ochoa wrote to the City Council requesting that the terms to be modified to allow him to pay off $200,000 at the close of escrow with the balance of the loan ($75,000) being converted into a personal loan, not secured by the Madeline property. The original letter also provided for a sliding scale of interest starting at 2% and increasing the longer the debt is outstanding. According to Monrovia’s current City Manager

Laurie Lile, the letter from Ochoa was received on Thursday, June 28 and while there was time to add item to the agenda there was no time to prepare a written report on Ochoa’s request. Her report indicated that a second mortgage loan was made to Ochoa in 2004. To that end, a modification to his employment agreement was made, and a second deed of trust and a promissory note were made. She reported that Ochoa was up to date on his payments and that he was not asking for forgiveness for any part of that loan, but rather for a change in the repayment. She reported that he was requested that $200,000 be repaid to the city at the time escrow closed rather than the full $275,000, and that the city accept a note for the balance of the money due, approximately $75,000. Her reported also noted that Ochoa offered to pay interest on a sliding scale starting at 2% and increasing the longer it took to repay the loan. To secure that loan Ochoa offered personal property including a home his parents own in Crestline, the title to which is without encumbrances. There were two speakers who addressed the council in opposition to the modification of the loan. Ochoa himself also appeared at the Council meeting to explain his request. He said that he agreed with the other speakers in that he felt the city wanted its money sooner rather than later. “That is really what this comes down to at the end of the day.” Council Member Joe Garcia, who was one of two council members who voiced opposition to approving the readjustment of the loan to Ochoa, said that he was one of those who unanimously approved the original loan. “I fully supported Scott’s original loan,” Garcia said, “since we had asked him to move to Monrovia. This was just a bridge loan when we were in a whole different economy.” In explaining why he felt differently now Garcia added, “A lot has changed in the economy. We are in a community that was desimated by the change in the economy. Quite a few members of the community have lost their homes; some have seen their property values turned upside

down so they can’t refinance their homes. Some are even worse off: they have lost their jobs and have had to ‘short sell’ their properties. “In good conscience, I could not approve the loan modification,” Garcia continued. “It might have economically been a good transaction, but the appearance of the transaction, giving another loan to an exiting city manager, didn’t sit well with me. It left a sour taste in my mouth.” Council Member Tom Adams expressed these same sentiments as well. “In 2004 the purpose was to get him to move to Monrovia. It would have created economic problems for him to move,” Adams said. “Then it was a good deal for the city. We got out city manager to live in the town.” Later in the week, Adams said his problem with the change in the loan agreement was that as proposed by Ochoa, there were no definitive dates for the conclusion of the loan. “I looked at the proposal,” he said. “The letter said that it was his (Ochoa’s) intention to repay the city within 90 days of escrow, but it did not make that date mandatory. Also the original request was for only a 2% loan. “I looked at the proposal; it did not mean that Monrovia would get its money early,” Adams went on. “It said at the close of escrow. It did not give that date,” he said. He also explained how he saw the entire situation: “It is not a Monrovia issue. It is an Ochoa issue. Public sentiment was against this.” Adams also said that he felt that by not approving the loan, the city would be paid more quickly as Ochoa would need to pay off the entire loan in order to close escrow on the property. He pointed out that Ochoa had pledged personal assets in guarantee the personal loan. “Scott Ochoa is still free and willing to pledge those assets to some other lender and get the $75 thousand he is after,’ Adams said. “It will just cost him more to do so. I do not see this costing the Ochoa family more was a City of Monrovia issue and no one could show me how it was. Since it wasn’t a City of Monrovia issue, I saw no reason to discuss it further.

It's Hot, It's Summer ‘The Bears are Back in the Foothills’

-Courtesy Photo

Los Angeles County Sheriff’s dept. says it is always wise to give a bear as much room as you possibly can. “If you see a bear in a residential community, leave the area and call 9-1-1. Bears don't want to play, they just want humans to go away,” the LASD advises. Gatherings of people watching the bears, smelling like humans and making noises scare the bears. Once scared, they just want to go home to the forest. You can help them by going home too. Bears are wild animals and unpredictable. Mama bears are especially protective of their cubs. Encounters with Black Bears have been numerous over the past fifteen years. Foothill neighborhoods are especially apt to have bear visitors during summer and fall months during years when there iit is hot and

not a lot of rainfall. Eating from fruit trees and drinking from and swimming in pools, spas and ponds are activities which will most likely increase if the bear populations continue to increase. The Black Bears were introduced into the San Gabriel Mountains in 1933. They are all descendants of 11 bears deported from Yosemite National Park for being troublemakers. Stash your food and trash: Bears and other animals are attracted to anything edible or smelly. Store garbage in bear-proof containers, or store garbage in your garage until pick-up. Keep food indoors or in airtight and odor-free containers. Put away picnic leftovers; clean BBQ grills. Keep pet food inside, and bird feeders away. Pick up fallen tree fruit as soon as possible, or protect fruit trees with electric

fencing. Remove cosmetic fragrances and other attractants, including bird feeders and compost piles. Install or request bear-proof trash containers. Bear country precautions: Keep a close watch on children, and teach them what to do if they encounter a bear. While hiking, make noise to avoid a surprise encounter with a bear. Never keep food in your tent. Store food and toiletries in bearproof containers or in an airtight container in the trunk of your vehicle. Keep a clean camp by cleaning up and storing food and garbage immediately after meals. Use bear-proof garbage cans whenever possible or store your garbage in a secure location with your food. Never approach a bear or pick up a bear cub. If you encounter a bear, do not run; instead, face the animal, make noise and try to appear as large as possible. If attacked, fight back. If a bear attacks a person, immediately call 911. When wild animals are allowed to feed on human food and garbage, they lose their natural ways – often resulting in death for the animal.

held the City’s position that it did operate fully according to law, i.e. the Brown Act / Open Meeting and that the layoffs were validly based on budget decisions. Although it

is possible to appeal this decision, the next hearing currently scheduled is the trial court date on Sept. 6, and the City will be seeking dismissal of the entire lawsuit at that time.

Conflict of Interest in Monrovia ? Continued from page 15 the loan to Ochoa. They were Council Members Larry Spicer and Mayor Mary Ann Lutz. Council Member Becky Shevlin recused herself and thanked Cyrus Kemp who brought this issue of a possible conflict of interest on the part of Shevlin to the attention of the council. Shevlin has a real estate license and has affiliated that license with Podley Properties since April of this year. Donna Baker of Podley Properties has the listing for the Ochoa property. She said that she was not actively working at this time, it had not occurred to her that a conflict of interest. She left the council chamber and did not take part in the discussion of the issue. “I have no listings and represent no buyers at this time,” Shevlin said, “but on the advice of the City Attorney, I recused myself in order to avoid the appearance of impropriety.” After the meeting, Lutz said that she saw the opportunity to receive payment on the majority of the money quickly and the balance at a higher rate of interest and that was the reason for her support of the modification. At the meeting Spicer said that he had no questions on the matter, but that “I am listening and learning.” Later in the week after the meeting, Council Member Spicer said that he believed getting the money back early was a good idea. “If he can pay the $200,000 back early, and the balance at a higher rate of interest, what is the difference,” Spicer asked. “It seamed like a good deal to me.” At the meeting Lutz said she was hearing questions from the community such as “”Why doesn’t Mr. Ochoa just go out and get a separate loan for $275,000. And pay off this loan to the city?” Ochoa responded “Ultimately, maam, that is what

we will do to take out the remaining $75,000. Going back to a previous discussion I had with council, the idea of substituting collateral was not objectionable at that time in December. And so with that in mind, although it was not the official position of the city, it was something that was stated in a separate meeting, we moved forward with pursuing a home in Glendale with that understanding.” [Please see related article “Monrovia Council accused of Brown Act Violation” p.1__] He went on to say that he saw that was no longer the situation. Asked why he did not just get the separate now, Ochoa explained that since they were already in escrow on the Monrovia property and the one in Glendale. He also said he could not now seek an additional loan, explaining that the reason for the short term of the proposed new loan was to enable him and his family to secure a new loan for the $75,000 to repay Monrovia. He also explained that without the modification, the current escrows would not be able to close as currently scheduled. “That is not the end of the world, as I said at the outset, I would abide (by) the council’s decision.” He said that he saw this as an opportunity for the city to be repaid more quickly. He said, “Monrovia has been very, very good to me and I think I have been very good to Monrovia. And so it is important to me that the council as representatives of the community is satisfied with the deal, and if you are not, that’s OK. I am willing to live with that.” At the meeting Lutz questioned the current City Manager regarding what the lack of action by the council would mean asking “Should the council decide tonight not to accept Mr. Ochoa’s offer

and make some sort of arrangement…we will go back to what is status quo which is his monthly payments and this note will not be due and most likely we will not be made until December. Correct?” Lile confirmed this, prompting Lutz to ask the current rate was on second deeds. Ochoa said that currently the going rate for personal loans is 6.25%. Lutz said that she preferred to have the loan paid off as soon as possible. As she preferred to have the $200,000 paid off by the end of the month with the balance being paid by October. Ultimately, with Shevlin not participating in the discussion it became apparent that with Spicer and Lutz favoring the modification, and Adams and Garcia not favoring it, the matter was allowed to die. Ochoa said earlier this week, that while he was disappointed that the council had not approved his proposal, he understood that there were members of the council did not feel comfortable. “I am grateful to Monrovia for everything the city did for me, and I understand the concerns of some people.” Ochoa said that while this escrow may not be able to close on time, he will pursue other funding and he was sure that he would be able to secure a loan, but did not yet have a timeline for that. Alvarado told this newspaper that after leaving Ochoa left as City Manager, his agreement called for him to begin paying interest on the loan at 5% and to repay the additional 3% which had accrued on the loan during the preceeding 7 ½ years. “He was paying 2% interest on the loan while he was employed here with the balance of 3% accruing. He has repaid the accrual and is current on his payments,” Alvarado said.

Sierra Madre Council Ready to Approve Project Continued from page 1

resa Highsmith to draft new language making density the only exception that applies to the two parcels. This would exempt the two lots from Measure V’s density requirements and only for the Kensington Specific Plan. The City Council made further progress with the Kensington project by approving its proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration and briefly reviewing the Specific Plan. Though Mayor Josh Moran tabled the Specific Plan to bring it back for further public review at the next meeting, the council did agree to strike out the plan’s prohibitive language on the much-debated kitchen furnishings, which would restrict occupants from having microwaves. Billy Shields happily agreed to take the restrictive language out of the Specific Plan, saying, “We're going to allow these seniors to enjoy their new homes in whatever way they wish without being

concerned with whether or not a microwave is allowed.” The public hearing was continued to the council’s next meeting on Jul. 24, when the council will consider a resolution on the Specific Plan and then hold its first reading of the Municipal Code Text Amendment. The zoning text amendment is an ordinance that will amend the Sierra Madre Municipal Code to incorporate the Kensington Specific Plan regulations. The council appears ready to approve the project and put it on the ballot for voters based on the previous work of the Planning Commission, whose members already spent nine public meetings vetting the project’s Specific Plan and Text Code Amendment. “I have no problem with approving these right now,” Moran said. “But I do want to give the public one more time to weigh in on the proposed ballot language.” Residents, many who

voiced support for the project during public comment, took an extreme interest in Tuesday’s meeting in part for another reason: the importance of exercising their right to vote through Measure V. Written and approved by Sierra Madre voters in 2007, Measure V limits new construction in the downtown area to two stories, a height of 30 feet, and a density rate of 13 units per acre. According to Fay Angus, Measure V is one of the best things to happen to the community of Sierra Madre in the 50 years she has been a resident. Like the 20 others who spoke up for their right to be heard on the Kensington project, she believes the measure is in place to protect the interests of residents who are concerned with the density issues of downtown projects. “We are at the crossroads tonight, because what happens here will set a precedent … for other properties coming up,” she said.

Monrovia Accused of Brown Act Violation Continued from page 1

cused the council of violating the open meeting law when, at closed session last December, council discussed the terms of a loan made to then City Manager Scott Ochoa. In November of last year, Ochoa was appointed City Manager of Glendale with his employment to begin in January of this year. The Monrovia Council gave notice of a closed session in December with the topic being “Public Employment: City Manager.”

In 2004, Monrovia gave Ochoa a loan to assist him to move to into the city when he was appointed City Manager. Last week Ochoa sent the City a letter requesting a modification of that loan. In the letter, he wrote “In December 2011, I met with the Council in Closed Session to discuss ways of removing the city from the title of the Madeline Drive house so that we could sell it and move to Glendale.” It was this meeting which

is alleged to have been in violation of the open meeting law. Monrovia’s City Attorney Craig Steele has been quoted as saying that the city had a very open and noticed discussion of the issue at the last Council Meeting and that there had been no prejudgment of decision on any aspect of this issue prior to that discussion in Open Session. Repeated attempts to contact Steele for additional comments went unanswered at deadline.

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mort¬gagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 916 939 0772 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site www.nationwideposting.com for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case 20110187411905.
