Opportunities to Get Involved
As I’ve written previously in this space, the City’s role as a convener of community members is one of its most important. Following each municipal election, appointments are made to various Commissions, Boards and Committees that assist the City Council and staff in carrying out their work. The meetings of these groups are one of the places where the community convenes; a place and context where community members meet to discuss often difficult issues and reach decisions about matters that affect the way we live together. Appointments to the City Commissions, Boards and Committees expire every two years on January 31st following the municipal election. Each member is appointed by the Mayor with the advice and consent of the City Council at a regular public meeting. In the coming months the City will be soliciting applications for these positions in time for the City Council to consider making appointments in February. The City’s Commissions, Boards and Committees include the Planning Commission, Architectural Review Board, Mobile Home Rent Stabilization Board, Bluffs Management Advisory Board, Tree Advisory Board, Downtown “T” Business Advisory Board, Carpinteria First Committee, Integrated Pest Management
Erin Chadwick guides her son Beau in a reading comprehension lesson at the Carpinteria Library. For the past six years, Erin has homeschooled her four children—Rain, Sunny, Trace and Beau. To complement their family’s curriculum, the kids participate in Classical Conversations with a Carpinteria-based community of homeschool families. The program covers eight subjects, including Latin and American Sign Language. The Chadwicks also belong to Homeschool Partnerships in Santa Barbara. “They love it,” said Erin. “They love their community.”
Committee and the Environmental Review Committee. You can also get involved by volunteering. For example, the City’s HOST and Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) programs are always in need of volunteers. HOST volunteers provide information to visitors from the Downtown visitor center kiosk from Memorial Day through Labor Day. CERT volunteers participate in emergency preparation training to help them prepare to assist their families and neighbors in the event of a disaster. Many current and past City Council members were first members of one of these appointed bodies and/or volunteered through a City program. I encourage anyone interested to consider serving their community through a City appointment or by volunteering. The crucial and fundamental role of city government as convener would be impossible without an engaged citizenry because reaching agreement on important matters does not occur at a point in time but instead is ongoing and evolving. Carpinterians have navigated a path to a successful community by being engaged, expressing opinions, and showing respect and tolerance for our differences. In an increasingly complex and challenging world, the willingness of Carpinterians to come together and work on challenging issues bodes well for its future. Information about serving on City Commissions, Boards and Committees, including any applicable eligibility requirements, can be found on the City Clerk page of the City’s website or by contacting Fidela Garcia, City Clerk, at (805) 755-4403. For information about volunteering, please contact Mimi Audelo at (805) 755-4401.

HOSTs gather at year-end celebration.
HOST Volunteers Selected as City’s Fall Community Partner The HOST Volunteers have been selected as the City’s fall 2018 Community Partner Award Recipients. Every weekend from Memorial Day through Labor Day, HOSTs volunteer their time at the downtown Visitor Center greeting visitors, answering questions about the Carpinteria Valley and providing information on activities that appeal to a variety of interests. HOSTs work in teams of two on either Friday, Saturday, or Sunday in two hour shifts (10am, noon, and 2pm). The City’s HOST Program officially began in 2006 after a successful pilot program. When the program first started, volunteers set up a table, chairs, and a canopy at the Seal Fountain in the Downtown where they greeted and assisted visitors. Eventually, the HOSTs needed more space and in 2009 they arranged for the design, permitting, and construction of the HOST Kiosk at the Seal Fountain. Over the years the HOSTs have greeted tens of thousands of visitors from almost every state and myriad countries and have donated thousands of hours of time. The Program is led by the HOST Steering Committee, who provide critical leadership and help set the direction of the program. The committee’s work also includes coordination of maintenance and repair of the HOST Kiosk, updating and tracking kiosk materials; working as HOST Day Captains, and recruiting and mentoring new volunteers. The HOST Program recently completed another successful season greeting more than 3,000 visitors from 36 states and nine countries. HOSTs also participated in First Friday festivities by keeping the Visitor Center open later during the these events. The City would like to thank all of the HOSTs for their volunteer efforts and congratulate them as the City’s fall 2018 Community Partner Award Recipient. If you are interested in joining the program or learning more, please contact Mimi Audelo at (805)-755-4401 or mimia@ci.carpinteria.ca.us.
Are you STORM-Ready?
The damage to our hillsides from the Thomas Fire is still evident as the next storm season approaches. New growth has not reached the levels needed to avoid the possibility of flooding and debris flows. Preparing now will help you handle whatever situation Mother Nature hands us. Here are five steps to help you become STORM-Ready: 1) Sign up for emergency alerts at www.awareandprepare.org. This is the Santa Barbara County emergency alerting system. 2) Make an emergency plan for you and your household. Your plan should include what to do if you are home when the emergency starts as well as if you are away. Be sure to include an out of town contact in your communications plan. 3) Build an emergency kit for your home, work, and vehicle. Kits should include important papers and supplies you will need if evacuated. Also, have enough supplies on hand if you need to shelter in place. Remember, utilities may be off during this time. Check your batteries. Make sure your flashlights and radio work. 4) Be aware of your surroundings. Whether at home or at work, know the flood risks in your area. 5) Don’t wait for an evacuation order. Leave the area if you feel unsafe.
Debris Flow Risk Map Available On-Line
Santa Barbara County Office of Emergency Management has released an interactive map to help you assess your risk of being impacted by debris flow during 2018 winter storms, including being part of a mandatory evacuation. To access the map, go to www.ReadySBC. org and click on maps. Enter your address to see if you are in or near an extreme risk area.

Storm Ready, Set, Go! Protocols.
The rainfall threshold used to determine potential evacuations is 0.8” in one hour. If the National Weather Service predicts this level of storm intensity, the County will start the Storm Ready Set Go protocols. • READY -- Given enough time (72-48 hours in advance), the Ready advisory will alert the community about an incoming storm. • SET -- The Set message is an evacuation warning that will go out to the affected areas (48-24 hours in advance) asking residents to prepare to leave. • GO -- If the storm remains a threat, the Go evacuation order will inform residents in the debris flow risk area to leave now (less than 24 hours before the predicted rain event). If you need assistance evacuating, don’t wait. It may be difficult to reach you once the rain event begins. Residents near debris flow risk areas or adjacent to any creek should be attentive, stay informed, and make their own decisions about if and when to leave.

Hikers warned to heed caution on Franklin Trail
Santa Barbara County has issued a notice to Franklin Trail patrons and visitors to take extreme caution when using the trail during construction activities from Nov. 14 to Nov. 30. Henkels & McCoy, Inc., on behalf of Southern California Edison, will be working on or near the Franklin Trail performing construction activities for the Santa Barbara County Reliability Project (SBCRP). Upon its completion, the SBCRP will increase the reliability and integrity of the power grid serving residents of Santa Barbara and surrounding areas for years to come. Project impacts to the Franklin Trail are to begin immediately. Visitors should expect a trail closure with no through access past the Duca Bench at mile marker 3.3. Trail goers should also expect to share the trail with large equipment such as trucks, excavators and dump trucks. The trail is expected to remain open for most of the construction activities, but visitors should expect intermittent trail interruptions to access of up to 30 minutes. However, some interruptions to access of one or more hours may occur for public safety. Detours will not be possible due to the trail and project sharing some of the same roads and paths. For more information contact the SBCRP hotline at (866) 464-2005, visit the SCE website or email sbcrp@sce.com/.

“I cannot accept the way he died. It’s not right what happened to Mark.”
Father of Isla Vista shooting victim grieves with Meza family, speaks out against gun violence By DeBra Herrick Christopher Michaels-Martinez was born in San Luis Obispo and was killed at the age of 20 on May 23, 2014, in Isla Vista. He was shot once in his chest. Michaels-Martinez was one of six University of California, Santa Barbara students who were killed in a mass shooting by a 22-year-old man. Michaels-Martinez was finishing his sophomore year of college. “My son was 20-years-old when he was shot and killed in Isla Vista, the same age as Mark (Meza),” said Christopher’s father Richard Martinez. “It’s such a shock. It takes you down to a place you’ve never been before. Any parent would rather die than have their child die before them.” After the mass shooting at the Borderline Bar & Grill in Thousand Oaks on Nov. 7, in which 12 people were killed, including Mark “Marky” Meza Jr. of Carpinteria, Martinez said, “I saw Cody (Gifford-Coffman)’s father and Telemachus (Orfanos)’ mother and it just reminded me of me. That was me.” Orfanos was 27. He was a survivor of the 2017 Las Vegas country music festival mass shooting, where 58 people were slain in 10 minutes, including Denise Cohen, 58, of Carpinteria. Cody GiffordCoffman was 22. “And you think about how you don’t find out right away. The police don’t want to tell you until they’re sure. So, it can take a long time,” Martinez added. “Some of the families in Isla Vista did not find out for more than five hours. We found out sooner, but we were the exception. “I would imagine that in that situation with Mark that they didn’t find out for hours and you keep thinking that there might be a different answer, and then you start to realize that maybe they are dead. And that’s hard. You’re still hoping. You’re hearing from a lot of people and you’re not hearing from Mark. “For me, I cannot accept the way he died. It’s not right what happened to Mark. We need to change it. It doesn’t need to be like this.”
everytown for Gun Safety, Survivor Network
Martinez is now a Senior Associate for the Survivor Network of Everytown for Gun Safety, an organization founded after the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, in 2012, where a 20-year-old fatally shot 20 children between six and seven years old, and seven adults, before killing himself. According to their website, Everytown is a movement of five million Americans working together to end gun violence and build safer communities: “Gun violence touches every town in America. For too long, change has been thwarted by the Washington gun lobby and by leaders who refuse to take common-sense steps that will save lives.” Everytown has three units: Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America; Mayors Against Illegal Guns; and the Survivor Network. Martinez works with families around the country who have been impacted by gun violence. “There’s no right way or wrong way to grieve,” he said. “For me,

Violent Death rates: The U.S. compared with Other High-income OecD countries, 2010. aM J Medicine, 2016/everytown for Gun Safety one of the things that was really helpful was talking to other survivors of gun violence. I’ve had the chance to speak with families from Sandyhook and Columbine, and there is something to talking to people who have had this experience. For people it hasn’t happened to, you know it’s bad, but when you go through it, it’s beyond words.” Twelve high school students and one teacher were killed by two teenagers in the 1999 Columbine High School massacre in Columbine, Colorado. “one of the things about talking to people who have lived through it, is you can see that they have survived. What it’s like at five, 10, 15 years later,” Martinez said. “For us, we don’t want to forget. people say you should get over it, but I don’t want to get over it. They were your child, you raised them. They were a part of your life every day. You don’t get over it. You learn to live with it. “Even in my own family, there’s a difference to how people want to talk about it. Some people don’t want to talk about it. “It affects more than just the family too. I remember after Isla Vista, I went there and I saw his friends, and they were in school, and they had their whole futures ahead of them, and Chris was dead.” Growing up in the ‘50s and ‘60s, Martinez said, he didn’t worry about getting shot, no little kid did. Mass shootings are widely covered by the media, but Martinez noted that for the vast majority of violent incidents involving guns, there’s no media blitz. “On a daily basis,” said Martinez, “It’s not mass shootings, its domestic violence. “Ninety-six Americans are shot (and killed) every day in this country. The majority are suicide and domestic violence. Women and children. No other country in the world has gun violence like this. “You know we just have to do better in this country about gun violence. It wasn’t

like this when I was growing up and it’s not like this in other developed countries. We shouldn’t accept this. We need to change this. I don’t know all the answers, but we haven’t tried nearly hard enough to get this done. We’ve done some things in California but we need to do more. We need to study these things when they happen, and we need to find solutions. There’s more than one solution. Today far fewer people die in car accidents than in the ‘50s and it wasn’t just one thing. It was seatbelts, air bags, etc. It was many solutions. “Chris was a terrific kid. But I don’t care what kind of kid he was. They don’t deserve to be killed like this. Young people, killed like this… people of any age, but especially young people like the ones in Thousand Oaks. Like Mark.”
Mothers of Parkland survivors offer solidarity
On Feb. 14, 2018, at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School (MSD) in Parkland, Florida, 17 students and school staff were killed by a 19-year-old student who wielded an AR-15 style semi-automatic rifle. Two mothers whose children survived the shooting, now members of Everytown’s Moms Demand Action unit, responded in shared grief and solidarity with Meza’s family and community. Debbie Bogaert Wanamaker wrote: “As a survivor of the MSD mass shooting, as a staff member-survivor, and yet most importantly, as a parent of a daughter in a room shot into… what gets me through each day is, ‘this has forever changed me, yet I refuse to let it define me.’” Lisa Steinman Glassman: “Yes, this Parkland mom feels your heartbreak and our entire community of Parkland stands
with you today and always, and we will not stop fighting until we achieve reasonable gun reform in America.”
Elected officials respond to Thousand Oaks massacre
“I am deeply saddened to learn Carpinterian Mark Meza is one of the victims from Wednesday night’s shooting in Thousand Oaks,” said 1st District Supervisor Das Williams. “My sincere condolences to Mark’s family and loved ones. I am outraged that this keeps happening in our community and alarmed to hear a gun violence restraining order from my bill AB 1014 could have been used to prevent such a tragedy.” Congressman Salud Carbajal said, “This week, gun violence touched our nation once again, tragically taking the life of our own Carpinteria community member, Mark Meza, and eleven others. My thoughts are with the victims, their loved ones, and the entire community in this time of unimaginable pain. I am incredibly grateful to Sheriff’s Deputy Ron Helus, who exhibited instinctual bravery and sacrifice during this dangerous shooting and undoubtedly saved lives. “It is clear that we have a gun violence crisis in America. This shooting happened just 11 days after the last mass shooting in our country. Congress must act now to pass meaningful reforms to save lives and prevent future tragedies.” Eleven people were killed by a 46-yearold man armed with a semiautomatic assault-style rifle at the Tree of Life synagogue on Oct. 27, 2018. As of press time, the National Rifle Association had not responded to requests by phone and email from CVN for a comment.

Carpinteria man among victims in Borderline massacre Mark Meza killed in Thousand Oaks mass shooting CVN REPoRt
Mark Meza, 20-years-old, of Carpinteria, has been identified as one of 12 victims in the Wednesday, Nov. 7, mass shooting at Borderline Bar & Grill in Thousand Oaks. Meza, a former Carpinteria High School student, had recently started working at the Borderline. “If Marky wasn’t senselessly taken from us, we would be turning to him now for comfort during this unbelievably difficult time. We are so lucky to have had Marky in our lives. He had the biggest heart and deepest soul,” said the Meza family in a written statement to Coastal View News. “Marky was a genuine light everywhere he went and wanted nothing more than to make people happy and bring smiles to everyone around him. He obtained so much joy and energy from being around people that loved him, just like we got from being in his presence.” On Thursday, Nov. 8, Carpinteria Unified School District posted a message on ParentSquare to all CUSD families announcing that Meza had been killed. “Mark was loved by many in our community and will be dearly missed,” the announcement read. “Please hold (Meza’s) family and friends in your hearts and thoughts at this difficult time. School counselors and mental health therapists will be available at the school sites for additional support.” Matt Drain, whose son was close friends with Meza, said, “He was a sweet kid. He was one of my children, he grew up in my house.” Drain added, “He was so excited to have gotten that job.” Describing Meza, Drain said “He had a great smile. He was someone you’d want to see welcoming you in. He was magnetic, very warm and loving. He was a sweet human. A sweet little boy and a sweet adolescent. I’m going to miss him a lot.” Late Wednesday night, Nov. 7, Ian David Long opened fire at Borderline Bar & Grill. The 28-year-old former U.S. Marine killed twelve people, including Ron He-

Meza’s family and friends asked for privacy from the media during this difficult time; they added that they are “grateful to connect with people who knew and loved Marky as they grieve his loss.” A Celebration of Life for Meza will take place on Sunday, Nov. 18, at 11 a.m., at the Hilton (Fess Parker) Beachfront Resort in Santa Barbara. A private burial will also be arranged. There will be a Candlelight Vigil for Meza on Monday, Nov. 19, at 6 p.m. at the Seal Fountain in Carpinteria.

With everything going on in our nation and especially in our local community the last year, the open wounds of devastation, stress and trauma seem to keep re-opening every time I turn around— from politics to random, senseless acts of violence against humanity, our youth, natural disasters and more. every single time I feel a wound may be starting to slowly heal, I am pelted by a new assault that tears it open, sometimes even more wide than the first one. I know I am not alone. Like so many, I feel helpless against the relentless gauging of my heart and soul with every new event that comes our way. So, what do we do? We do whatever the next right step is: for some that is getting involved with legislature to change things, volunteering for passionate causes, donating to causes that further our beliefs and make us somehow feel, on some small scale, that those who gave the ultimate sacrifice did not do so in vain. We comfort those in need, offer love, food, shelter, whatever it takes. This is all the “cool water” so necessary on a burning hot wound that desperately needs healing. But I also suggest that anytime we do a random act of kindness for anyone, this is offering cool water to the entire world in need, and it can start right here in our community. This weekend, Carpinteria Middle School ASB hosted a bake sale to raise funds so they can host a Winter Dance and Carnival for the school. I had the opportunity to watch this incredible Carpinteria community in action. Countless people stopped to donate money without taking any goods, just to “support” and engage with the leadership team working

The Carpinteria Valley Watershed Project Cvn
living the green life erin maker
Carpinteria’s water resources examined Part 2 of 3
Last week I wrote about how a natural watershed functions, and how development of any sort interrupts natural watershed processes. Humans have been interrupting the natural flow of water for thousands of years by developing in floodplains, diverting water for drinking and agricultural needs and filling in wetlands. Some human intervention is unintentional, while some is planned. The Carpinteria Valley Watershed Project is an example of intentionally changing the way the natural landscape functions in an effort to protect urban development. Work on a concept plan started in 1962 and took almost 20 years to complete. The Carpinteria Valley has always been prone to flooding due to the topography. In 1914, the largest recorded flood of the 20th century inundated much of the area with water. Even small storms could cause flooding, but larger storm events caused extensive damage. A combination of debris basins and concrete lined channels was proposed and eventually built to address flooding concerns. The largest debris basin in the county, on Santa Monica Creek, was part of the system. During the storm on January 9, 2018, that debris basin captured more than 155,000 cubic yards of debris. That quantity is hard to imagine, but a good refence point is that a typical dumb truck holds approximately 10 cubic yards—the larger hauling trucks hold 40 cubic yards. Along with construction of the Santa Monica debris basin, the project included a plunge pool just downstream (12,500 cubic yards removed last winter), and the Franklin, Lillingston, and Gobernador debris basins, as well as multiple small tributaries that drained to what is now Franklin Creek. Over the years, some of these have been modified and the Lillingston basin decommissioned; as with all projects, sometimes the unintended consequences of development leads to the need to make adjustments. It is important to remember that the Carpinteria Valley Watershed Project was conceived and constructed during a time when many waterways around the country were being engineered and modified as a way to protect the surrounding communities. We now know that there are benefits to mimicking the natural environment in development, but humans have always settled near rivers and other waterways, which have a tendency to flood. I have walked in the channel of
Today, it is unlikely that the Carpinteria Valley Watershed Project would be constructed the way it was. both Franklin and Santa Monica creeks, and I can say that all other things aside they are a feat of engineering. It would take a catastrophic amount of rain to cause them to flood in the most urban areas they flow through, which was the intention of that design. During construction, several floods occurred, most notably the 1969 flooding that caused damage to much of the Valley. This was followed by the Romero Fire in 1971 which burned most of the watershed and was followed by a moderate rain year that caused severe flooding. In 1972, work began on the channels that would be completed in 1981. All told, the debris basins in the Carpinteria Valley captured 181,070 cubic yards of material last winter. Many more cubic yards of silt and other fine materials washed downstream, filling the creeks and salt marsh with material that had to be removed. Had the debris basins not been there, enormous rocks and other material would have also flowed through that system as happened in Montecito. Today, it is unlikely that the Carpinteria Valley Watershed Project would be constructed the way it was. We have learned more about mimicking natural watershed processes, and environmental regulations designed to protect and enhance habitat exist now that did not then. But it is impossible to move backwards. The channels that are lined would be difficult to remove without greatly impacting entire neighborhoods. Work has been done along Carpinteria Creek to enhance steelhead habitat, including modification of the Gobernador debris basin to allow fish passage. It is easy to look back on things and say what we would have done differently, but as I mentioned at the beginning of this article, humans have been interrupting natural watershed processes as long as we have been growing crops and settling cities. The debris basins above Carpinteria do have positive and negative impacts, like all human development, but last winter their function most likely saved the community from much more severe post-fire debris flows. Next week, we will visit the topic of water quality. Erin Maker is the Environmental Coordinator for the City of Carpinteria.

CUSD Real Property Advisory Committee moves to recommend sale of Bailard properties Summerland Citizens successfully lobby to postpone a decision on Whitney parcel
By Christian Beamish Carpinteria Unified School District formed the Real Property District Advisory Committee in April, 2018 to consider two district properties at Bailard Avenue in Carpinteria (3.78 acres and 3.20 acres, respectively) and a third 6.84-acre parcel at Whitney Avenue in Summerland, and make a recommendation to the school board as to what should be done with them. State law requires that “surplus” district property not being used for educational purposes be sold. The Advisory Committee held a public meeting on Thursday, Nov. 8, at the CUSD District Offices, 1400 Linden Ave., and seven Summerland residents spoke about their concerns regarding the potential sale of the Whitney property. While the determination has already been made that the 6.84 acres at the top of the hill in Summerland will not be used as a school site (the lack of water and infrastructure on the parcel being the main factor), the Whitney property has nevertheless long served as open space for the community there, ever since it was gifted to the then Summerland District in 1955. Chief among the Summerland residents’ concerns was a feeling that they had not been informed of the Committee’s intention to recommend that the CUSD School Board sell the surplus Whitney property in Summerland. The seven-member committee had a Summerland representative, Sara Gorman, but she moved to Santa Barbara and a replacement was not found for her. Suzy Cawthon, a board member of the Summerland Citizens Association, read from an email that had been sent to the Advisory Committee “…the proposed recommendation to sell or otherwise dispose of the Whitney Avenue property is a matter of significant interest to the Summerland community. …Measure U is meant to fund desperately needed improvements to the school, however, based on historic practices and oversite, it’s not unreasonable to be concerned that the capital will have run dry before construction is meant to begin on Summerland and our 50-year-old portables (classrooms)… We are deeply concerned that this issue has not had a thorough study by our community. We ask that
CUSD defer to making a decision about the Whitney property until a time that we can better understand the impacts to our community that this sale would have…” Planners for Measure U school-improvement projects have allocated $6 million to replace aged portable classrooms at Summerland School, in addition to significant work to address seismic concerns on the hillside property. “Within three years there will be a new school at the (Summerland) site,” said CUSD Superintendent Diana Rigby. Summerland resident Eric Ozolinssais said it was “surprising that (this process) is moving forward so quickly, and the recommendation you make could have a lot of power…” noting the potential for the committee to recommend the sale of the property and the potential for it to quickly be purchased and presumably developed in a way that would negatively impact the character of Summerland. CUSD attorney Craig Price replied, “The process that resulted in the board’s decision to build a new school there (on the existing Summerland Elementary site) started in 2013… the point is it’s been discussed for five years.” “The board has absolutely committed to building a brand-new school (at the existing site of Summerland School) and they’ve allocated $6 million bucks,” committee member Russell Ruiz commented, “and there is no basis in fact to suggest that we’re not going to have it. We just sold $40 million in bonds, and that money’s in the bank.” Addressing the question of whether or not there will be sufficient Measure U funds to complete the improvements at Summerland School, Ruiz stated “Our architects, who are experts at building schools, have really impressed me, and I know a lot about the subject—they are the basis for the estimate, and they say they are going to build it for $6 million.” Carole Anne Demachkie, a founding

member of Parents for Summerland, whose three children went to the school, noted, “You have a deliberating committee here tonight that has no representative from Summerland—that is just a terrible thing… Apparently, there has been no outreach to the Summerland Citizens Association to replace the member that you did have… Whitney is a beautiful open space… To shut Summerland out (of committee representation) is really wrong and you should stop it.” Citing feelings of being neglected as a school community in the past, Demachkie added “Forgive us for being skeptical in Summerland” (as to whether or not Summerland School actually gets rebuilt). Wendy Bingham proposed that CUSD “hold on to the (Whitney) property until Summerland Elementary is (rebuilt)” followed by Gordon Morrison, who shared the opinion of the other Summerland residents who attended the meeting. “We’re now looking at a situation where I think there is risk to the completion of the Summerland School build…” Morrison commented. Despite having gone to Summerland Citizens Association meetings for years, Morrison said, “I really hadn’t
heard word of this previously, and that surprises me a little bit… I’m asking you guys to hold off on making a decision to sell that property…” At the end of the public comment period Superintendent Rigby made a motion to postpone making a decision on the Whitney property, suggesting that the committee “continue the discussion with respect to the Whitney property pending input from Summerland residents.” Concluding the meeting, Rigby said, “From my point of view, we would be remiss in making a decision tonight without going out and securing another representative from Summerland.” The Superintendent also committed to attending a Summerland Citizens Association meeting to present the Advisory Committee’s plans and hear directly from residents there. “The (Whitney) property is 63-years-old, so who’s in a rush? I want to take good care and be good stewards, and I want good representation…” Rigby said. The Advisory Committee then voted unanimously to postpone a decision on Whitney Avenue, and to recommend the sale of the Bailard property at the next CUSD School Board meeting, Nov. 27.

“Our flagship Santa Barbara farmers’ market generates 54 percent of total revenue for the six markets held throughout the county, subsidizing the smaller ones—like Carpinteria’s Thursday Farmer’s Market—to keep them going even if they operate at a loss.” –– Nadia and Ed Van Wingerden
An open letter to City Council
I have a memo of sorts for all members of the council, incumbents and newly elected, and that is to remember who it is you serve. You don’t just serve those who own their homes, but those who rent, those who have money, and those who barely scrape by. You serve those who live in the campground because they can’t afford to rent, and those who don’t even have that luxury. You serve those who can afford to pay mortgages and full rents, and those who live on Social Security and are blessed with Section 8 housing. You serve those who sit down to dinner every night, and those who don’t know where their next meal is coming from. You serve those who are articulate, savvy, and computer literate, and also those who live in their own personal hell and cannot function in “polite society.” You serve the homeless, as well as the well-housed. They too, are your constituents. I would encourage you to get to know them, and not just pass them by on the street. They are not a problem to be solved—they are people. They have names, they have stories. Some can hold a nice conversation with you. Some can’t. Yes, some are addicts or alcoholics, but some are simply down on their luck and need a hand up, not a handout. Some have mental health issues or physical limitations. I encourage you to talk to them, to find out what their needs are, and to help where you can, because they are part of your responsibility too.

Lagunitas residents need a buffer too
I would like to correct an error in last week’s article about Cannabis manufacture, testing and distribution in the industrial park (“Cannabis growing…,” Vol. 25, No. 7). The article states that Lagunitas is “near” the industrial park, but in fact, according to the city, we are “in” the industrial park. The map classifies the entire area, including our homes, as “MRP” without distinguishing the Lagunitas neighborhood as residential. The staff report states that these activities are being restricted to this area to protect city residents. The City should consider the rights of all residents in their final decision, because we are residents
too and we will be the most impacted by the City’s new regulations. I believe there should be a buffer area to protect our homes just as those in other parts of the city are being protected.

Save the Farmers’ Market
For more than 35 years, the Santa Barbara Farmers’ market has brought fresh fruit, vegetables and other nutritious food to the city in a thriving Saturday morning ritual in the commuter parking lot at Cota and Santa Barbara streets. Now, the City of Santa Barbara is considering ditching the market to build a new police station. As one of the long-time farmers who feed Santa Barbara, I must stress that we support our police and their need for an upgraded station. I’ve been selling organic produce, eggs, poultry and flowers for three decades. We have regular customers, home cooks and restauranteurs who want the freshest, healthiest ingredients to feed their families and customers. We also have outof-town visitors who flock to the market. Our flagship Santa Barbara farmers’ market generates 54 percent of total revenue for the six markets held throughout the county, subsidizing the smaller ones—like Carpinteria’s Thursday Farmer’s Market—to keep them going even if they operate at a loss. For the health of our community, we urge City leaders to explore other building sites for a police station that will not impact our local farming community, local businesses, tourists and food lovers. If you care about the market you can make a difference by signing the petitions available at all the county markets as well as contacting the Santa Barbara Mayor and council members. Or attend the upcoming meetings: Wednesday, Nov. 7, 5:15 to 7 p.m., at the Faulkner Gallery, Central Library 40 E. Anapamu St.; Tuesday, Nov. 13, 5:15 to 7 p.m. at the Franklin Neighborhood Center, 1136 E. Montecito Street; and, Thursday, Nov. 15, 5:15 to 7 p.m. at La Cumbre Junior High, Multipurpose Room, 2255 Modoc Road. We appreciate your support.

Faith Lutheran project moves forward Council calls Meza’s death “senseless tragedy” By DeBrA HerriCk
Thousand Oaks shooting, senseless tragedy
“A young man with a bright future,” Councilmember Gregg Carty said at the Nov. 13 City Council meeting, “Carpinterian Mark Meza was taken. His life was taken in a senseless tragedy in Thousand Oaks.” Mayor Fred Shaw offered, “Our hearts go out to the family. Tragedies like this make no sense. As the sheriffs are aware, there have been 307 mass shootings this year in the United States. It just boggles the mind.” A candlelight vigil will be held on Monday, Nov. 19, at 6 p.m. at the Seal Fountain. Leslie Tru spoke on the vigil organizers’ behalf, saying, “Bring candles. His mom will be there. Just remember him and pray. We’ll have some speakers. It’ll be a nice gathering, and it should be good closure for everyone.”
Faith Lutheran Church
The Council voted 5-0 to direct architects to work with the City to prepare final architectural plans for development of the Faith Lutheran Church property on 1335 Vallecito Place, with the direction to widen the private road to 25 feet with access off Vallecito Place. The project will then return to City Council for further review and consideration. In requesting a conditional use permit revision, tentative tract map and coastal development permit to allow the subdivision of an existing 2.7-acre property into seven separate lots and the construction of five new residences, Faith Lutheran presented two alternative proposals. The project had previously received a recommendation to relocate the two-story structure from the Planning Commission on Aug. 6, and on Sept. 24 City Council recommended revisions to the plans that considered access and density. According to the architects, the new plans responded to the City Council’s Sept. 24 concerns by locating the two two-story residences in the middle of the development, lessening the impact on current residents of Vallecito Place and Pacific Village. The proposed development also includes one residence that will be an affordable unit, per the City’s inclusionary housing ordinance, and a reconfigured Church parking lot to accommodate 79 parking spaces. During the Council’s deliberation, Councilmember Brad Stein stated that the project had improved greatly but he expressed concern for the amount of development given the square footage. “I’d be inclined to move that property line back and do six houses… It would be a much safer project, giving more access on that road.” Carty expressed a distinct concern for the churches in Carpinteria. “Their congregations are declining pretty rapidly,” said Carty. Faith Lutheran Church has about 50 congregants at present. “Be careful what you hope for,” he continued, “it’s possible the whole property is sold and the whole property is developed. It’s a concern of mine, but it’s not my purview. What is the purpose for doing this? But again, it’s not mine to say. I want the Church to think, is this what we really want to do?” Bringing up the high price of construction, he said, “The profit might
not be as much as you hope it will be… do you really want to do this?” Faith Lutheran member Paul Wright responded from the audience, “We really don’t have a choice. If we don’t do this, we’re going to be shutting our doors. We don’t usually talk about this. We’re a happy church, we’re a faithful church.” Councilmember Al Clark noted that he was not in favor of 18-foot driveways since there are many cars that are longer than 18 feet. Stein concurred and Nomura and Shaw suggested that the Church figure out a way to widen the road and driveways. The Council voted 5-0 for the Faith Lutheran Church to work with the City on preparing a full set of plans to bring back to the Council.
1112 Linden Avenue development denied
In a 5-0 vote, City Council accepted findings for denial of a five-unit multifamily residential apartment development project at 1112 Linden Avenue. Council moved to deny the development on the basis that the project did not meet minimum standards for onsite parking or vehicle maneuverability.
Linden and 5th Street inn Project
In a 4-1 vote (with Clark dissenting), City Council moved to continue consideration of the development of a boutique hotel on Linden Avenue and 5th Street (Amtrak/City Parking Lot No. 3), selecting The Theimer Group to further explore the Inn Project, and extending the consultant services agreement with Keyser Marston Associates.
City Attorney update
City Attorney Dylan Johnson of Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck, LLP, is moving to the State Attorney’s office. In his place, Brownstein Shareholder Peter Brown has appointed Jenna Akos to take on the primary responsibility of representing the City and serving as Johnson did. Akos, who specializes in public law, has been working on City matters since she began at Brownstein. “She’s very capable, the City will be very well-served having her here,” said Brown who will continue to oversee the file.
New Channel islands Center
Representing the Santa Cruz Island Foundation, Marla Daley asked City Council for a letter of support to bring the permanent Channel Islands Center to Carpinteria. The Channel Islands Center will be a cultural museum, library and archive, open to the public and free of charge with rotating exhibits. The Santa Cruz Island Foundation is tasked to protect the eight islands. The Foundation Board will decide on Dec. 8 where to locate its new Center, whether in Ventura, Carpinteria or Santa Barbara. “I’m hoping that it will be brought to Carpinteria,” said Daley, “it would be the third of two other cultural centers, the Carpinteria Valley Museum of History and the Carpinteria Arts Center.” Shaw requested the letter of support to be on the Nov. 26 City Council agenda.

The KopSun executive team members are, from left, Amy Marie Orozco, Tina Fanucchi-Frontado and Leigh-Anne Anderson.
Three local women capitalize on the growing field of cannabis Described as a cannabis information and health resource, KopSun is akin to a personal consultant for the cannabis lifestyle. The new venture provides indepth information on cannabis, its health benefits, consumer products, industry news, pertinent legal matters, and a portal for purchasing curated inventory. Leigh-Anne Anderson, Tina FanucchiFrontado and Amy Marie Orozco—all Carpinterians—formed KopSun as a means to embrace the cannabis lifestyle in an educated and informed manner. They also saw KopSun as a way to leverage Carpinteria’s reputation for greenhousecultivated cannabis. “Powered by the cleanest available environmental practices and often coupled with generations of hand-me-down Old World agricultural experience from the Netherlands,” the three said in a press statement. KopSun’s current focus on its “Leaf Learning” component serves two purposes. One, it is building a strong foundation of knowledgeable clients who demand top-shelf products. Two, it allows the company to sow the seeds of its commitment to the local community. Complimentary Leaf Learning sessions are open to adults, and Leaf Learning can be adapted for middle and high school students. “We’ve been overwhelmed with the community’s acceptance and support of KopSun. There is a large interest in cannabis, and our Leaf Learning education forums have answered a lot of questions and erased so many misgivings and fears,” said Fanucchi-Frontado, KopSun CEO and founder. “Our goal is simply to provide the tools and information, so people become confident and empowered to make the smartest choice for themselves.” Additionally, the three business partners have pooled combined talents of publicity and media to provide public relations and marketing services for a variety of cannabis-related businesses in the area. Anderson, Fanucchi-Frontado and Orozco will be in Carpinteria’s Holiday Spirit Parade on Dec. 8, when KopSun will celebrate the town’s agricultural

The doldrums of drought
Water managers, county wrangle over Lake Cachuma supply BY MELINDA BURNS Where are the rains of yesteryear? The wet winter of 2017 is a distant memory as the county, like a thirsty desert survivor, staggers into its eighth year of drought. As of this month, the water level at Lake Cachuma, once the main water supply for the Carpinteria Valley, Montecito, Santa Barbara, and the Goleta and Santa Ynez valleys, has dropped back to 31 percent of capacity, a mark the reservoir hit in October 2014, on the way down to a record low of 7 percent in October 2016. “I think the dry conditions have just worn everybody out,” said Chris Dahlstrom, general manager for Santa Ynez River Water Conservation District No. 1, one of five agencies that draw from Cachuma. “It would be a great thing to get a good winter.” Yet no rain is forecast through Thanksgiving. A weak-to-moderate El Niño condition developing in the equatorial Pacific Ocean may not hold much promise for Southern California, said Eric Boldt, a meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Oxnard. “Right now, it doesn’t look very favorable for a wet year,” he said, “but there’s still some time to reverse course.” As the drought drags on, it’s not surprising that a dispute is simmering over allocations from the lake for the South Coast and Santa Ynez Valley. For now, the county has prevailed with a gradualist approach that releases some water now for sure and some in the spring … maybe. “When we get down to the bottom of the barrel here and we’re counting drops, we’ve got to be very careful,” said Tom Fayram, deputy director of county Public Works. “We’re making sure the water’s there before we allocate it. It’s very logical: we don’t want to come up short.” Fayram has not forgotten what happened in 2013, when Cachuma levels dropped below the halfway mark on the heels of one of the driest years on record. Back then, following the Goleta Water District’s lead, the water agencies broke with past practice and failed to take a voluntary 20 percent cut in their normal allocations for the next water year. As the drought deepened, their allocations for 2014-2015 were cut by 55 percent. In 2015-2016, they got zero allocations from the lake.
SANTA BARBARA COUNTY WATER AGENCY
As the county enters its eighth year of drought, Lake Cachuma has shrunk to 31 percent of capacity, the water level of October, 2014. But water managers who must answer to their drought-fatigued customers are frustrated by what they view as an excess of caution. “I’m not okay with the role the county is playing,” said Bob McDonald, general manager of the Carpinteria Valley Water District.
The shrinking lake
In some ways, the South Coast is in a worse fix today than in 2014, even though a supply of desalinated water is now online in Santa Barbara. Levels of ground water— the ultimate drought reserve— are at historical lows and dropping as a result of heavy well pumping in recent years. In addition, agencies in the Carpin-

teria and Goleta valleys, Montecito and Santa Barbara have taken on substantial water debt by buying additional supplies of state aqueduct water from districts around California. As part of the deal, they must return an equal amount of water to those districts within 10 years. The dispute over Cachuma water began last summer, when the water agencies unanimously asked the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, the owner and operator of the Bradbury Dam, for 40 percent of their normal allocations for the water year that runs from October 2018 through September 2019. “The water agencies pay for and operate Cachuma and are experts in water supply,” Carpinteria’s McDonald said. “We have the history of the lake with very little rain and in wet periods. We project what the evaporation demands will be, and the releases downstream. We did all the modeling to show that this was a reasonable allocation.” But the county, which holds the master water service contract for the Cachuma Project with the Bureau, did its own analysis and came up with a more conservative recommendation, which it forwarded to the Bureau along with the agencies’ request. Either cut the allocations to zero for the entire water year, the county’s Fayram advised, or adopt a two-step approach, allocating 20 percent now and 20 percent in the spring, depending on how much remains in the lake after the winter. When the Bureau sided with Fayram’s two-step recommendation, the water managers cried foul. “All of the purveyors are on the same page, but we can’t seem to find a common ground with the county,” said John McInnes, general manager of the Goleta Water District, the single largest user of Cachuma water. “It makes for a difficult discussion when we’re already so hardpressed for water supply to meet the needs of our customers. There’s water sitting in the lake and it’s not being released.” The cutback to 20 percent of allocations—at least for now—will force the district to continue longstanding Stage
3 drought restrictions for Goleta Valley customers, McInnes said. These rules generally prohibit outside watering more than two days per week or between the hours of 6 a.m. and 8 p.m. “This is a lifeline resource we’re talking about,” McInnes said. “We are trying to determine if the county has been acting in the purveyors’ best interest.” Joshua Haggmark, Santa Barbara water resources manager, said the cutback “means more costs to our ratepayers to address our water shortage and increased groundwater pumping.” Santa Barbara’s Stage 3 restrictions, like Goleta’s, limit the hours of outside irrigation. In Montecito, Jameson Lake has been offline since the Thomas Fire. Seventy percent of the community’s water supply is now being imported from the state aqueduct. It’s harder to plan for the future without knowing exactly how much will be available from Cachuma, said Doug Morgan, a member of the Montecito Water District board. Regarding the county’s recommendation, he said, “I think it was an overreach of their responsibility.” There are many competing demands on Cachuma beyond the allocations for South Coast residents. Water from the lake must be released yearly for endangered steelhead trout and downstream users, including Lompoc Valley farmers. A “minimum pool” must be reserved to keep the lake alive. In addition, the water agencies are storing a large “carryover” account at Cachuma, made up of unused portions of their allocations from previous years. Finally, huge losses to evaporation must be taken into account—more in warm and windy weather, and less as the lake gets smaller. Fayram believes it is the county’s responsibility to take a long-term view of Cachuma’s supply. “If you end up with an overdrawn lake, who’s going to make up that water?” he said.

Girls Inc. of Carpinteria will host its largest annual fundraiser “An Evening in Bloom” on Saturday, Dec. 1, from 5 to 9 p.m. at Girls Inc.’s campus at 5315 Foothill Road. This year’s gala will honor the late Dorothy Campbell for her decades of services to Girls Inc. and the Carpinteria community. Campbell had a vision in the early 70s to provide programming for girls in the community whose mothers worked, so they would have a place to go after school. With ten girls in her own home, she started the Girls Club, which later became Girls Inc. of Carpinteria. She grew the effort to summer camps and sports programs and in 1978, she purchased the first local campus—a small bungalow on Maple Street. Years later, the community rallied together to fund and build a 16,000-squarefoot campus on Foothill Road that would serve as a vibrant place for more girls to engage, explore and express themselves. The Campaign Steering Committee included: Chair Persons Ralph and Betty Brown, George H. Allen, Verna Carter, Ernest Clark, Jr., Cynthia P. Franklin, John Franklin, Robert W. Hanrahan, Pat Horwitz, Susan Luby, Lucy Overgaag, Tisha Rosh, Lynn Scarlett, Louis V. Simon, Yolanda Simon, Marie Rodarte Tobyansen, James Trotter, Dinah Griego and

She lent her talents to many Carpinteria organizations and causes over the years, including the Carpinteria Bluffs and the local League of Women Voters. She was named Carpinterian of the Year in 1982. She passed away on July 20, 2018. “An Evening in Bloom” will feature a cocktail and hors d’oeuvres hour, red carpet photo reception, plated dinner, hosted bar, entertainment and dancing.

Please keep sending your questions and comments either to Donnie@Coastalview.com or to me at mizdoni@gmail.com. All names are confidential. Remember that whatever your question is, it will matter to someone else and can start a discussion on the matter.

How can I convince her that it is not true? Should I tell her that I’m not at all attracted to her husband, but that another man down the street really catches my eye? SigneD, not guilty

You were fortunate that you were able to stay home to be with your children while they were growing up. Too many families need both parents working to make ends meet.

Last season was a magical one for the Carpinteria High School boys soccer team, as they captured the State’s Southern California Regional Division Five Championship after bringing home the CIF-SS Division Six Championship the week before. Knowing that the team has a tough act to follow this season, eighth-year Head Coach Leo Quintero is focusing on the one title that eluded the Warriors last year. “Unfortunately, we didn’t capture League last year, so, obviously our first goal will be to capture League, and then move forward after that,” said Quintero, whose team finished second to Santa Paula in the Tri-Valley League. Like nearly all the sports programs at the school, the Warriors will be competing in the new Citrus Coast League. Santa Paula will be part of the new league as well—as familiar foes, Fillmore and Nordhoff. Hueneme and Malibu will round out the field. “Hueneme, we have not played, not in the seven years that I’ve been coaching … I know they’re in (CIF) Division One, and they’ll enter as a Division One school if they make the playoffs … so, it will be interesting to see the type of challenge they give us,” said Quintero. Malibu, who gave the Warriors a difficult match a couple years ago, also figure to be contenders, as will Nordhoff, who dropped a close 1-0 contest to Quintero’s squad last season. Always competitive, Fillmore will again be a tough out. Carpinteria will be without six seniors who graduated from last year’s team, including CIF-SS Division Six Player of the Year Gabriel Barajas and four-year varsity player Luis Garcia. However, they bring back a strong core of returning seniors that include athletic twin brothers Luke and Solomon Nahooikaika-Anderson, and Angel Orozco who netted a couple of big goals during the team’s phenomenal playoff run less than a year ago. Senior Jose Jimenez who was All-CIF last year, is also back to provide some offensive punch. “I do believe we were averaging up to three goals a game up until the State regionals, so we’re adding some new players to the team but the only thing they’ll need to do is to buy into the system that we’ve created…” said Quintero, who has high expectations for this year’s team. Although the Warriors will start the season with freshman Brian Garcia at keeper, they also return four-year varsity player, senior Eddie Mendoza to the back line, as well as another senior Alex Ramirez at the stopper-sweeper position. Senior left back Saul Hernandez returns to the fold, as does another senior Alberto Arroyo who will spend time at both the left and right positions. Carpinteria will be tested early with their usual, demanding non-league schedule against higher-division schools such as Dos Pueblos, Rio Mesa, Channel Islands, Dunn and Santa Ynez. “Back-to-back (championships) would be nice. Nowadays, back-to-back in any sport at any level is really hard to do,” explained Quintero. The Warriors’ first match is against Cate on Thursday, Nov. 15, at 3:15 p.m.

Rams finally fall
but not before ranking number-one in CIF eight-man football CVN RepoRt
The Cate School football season came to an end in Newport Beach on Monday, Nov. 12 as the Rams lost to the Windward Wildcats In the second round of the CIF-SS playoffs by a score of 31-27. The game began on Saturday, Nov. 10, at Windward School Stadium in Los Angeles, but was suspended at the half due to poor air quality from the fires in Malibu. In the first half, the Rams saw scores from seniors Drew Anastasio on a 50-yard run, and Jack Deardorff on a 10-yard run. The score at halftime was 16-13, Windward. After nearly a two-day halftime and a change of venue, the Rams scored first on an Anastasio five-yard run. The other Cate score came on another Anastasio run, this time from 29 yards out. But the Wildcats scored the winning touchdown with 1:25 to play in the game. The Rams had a shot at a late game comeback, but came up short. “Obviously, it hurts to see a season end, but we are proud of the effort our team put forth today,” said Rams Assistant Coach Dave Soto. “We fought to the very end and as coaches, that’s all we can ask,” added Soto. The Rams finished the season 9-1, and for the first time in the program’s history achieved a ranking as the number-one team in the State in CIF-Southern Section’s Division-one Eight-man football.

prep News Carpinteria High School
Girls soccer November 13 - The Carpinteria High School girls soccer team opened their season, dropping a 2-0 decision to Rio Mesa. “I was really impressed with Kendra Meza tonight, she had a great game as a midfielder and as a forward,” said Warriors coach Charles Bryant. “Emily Montoya and Erika Estrada also played well, they both were in positions they normally do not play but showed some great skill along with a good understanding of those new positions,” explained Bryant. “Cydney Smolnikar was a threat all night as well,” added Bryant. Carpinteria is now 0-1 overall, and only had 11 players and eventually went down to 10 players midway through the second half of the match.
Cate School Girls basketball November 13 - The Cate School girls basketball team played their season opener Tuesday evening against Faith Baptist, walking off the court with a 42 to 26 win. “Junior Maya Blattberg played a great game and spent a lot of it playing as a guard,” said Rams coach Amy Venditta.

Morning Rotarians surround two classic woodies, a 1946 Ford with wooden doors and a wooden roof, and a 1949 Ford “shoebox” woodie with a steel roof.
Classic 1946 Ford Woodie rides to Morning Rotary
Lawrence Pitman, President of the Santa Barbara Woodie Association captivated Morning Rotarians with the story of how “woodies” started as “station hacks” in 1915 to pick up and deliver luggage and ended as a surfing icon. In 1923, Rolls Royce manufactured a woodie for hunting called a “shooting break.” In 1948, the last real wooden woodies were produced. In 1949, Ford produced the first steel roofed woodie. Throughout the 1950s and 60s surfers purchased woodies because at that time they had fallen out of fashion, were cheap and were one of the few vehicles that could hold a 9-foot surfboard. Pitman took seven years to restore his 1946 auto and proudly shows it each fall at the Annual Woodie Show at Santa Barbara City College.

CVN visits the Land-o-lakes
Tony, Linda and son Anthony Perez visited Tony’s sister Alicia and her Minnesota family, with 11 family members spending four days in a historical log cabin overlooking a clear, trout-filled lake. The weather forecast of 65 degrees quickly fell to 34 degrees, so paddle boating or kayaking was off the agenda. But the family enjoyed sitting around a fire talking about old times. Pictured are Perez’ nephew Doug, the Perez’ son Anthony, Linda Perez, great niece Bella, family friends and Tony Perez around Alicia, who lives in Coon Rapids.
In Carpinteria with CVN, far from home

As I’ve written previously in this space, the City’s role as a convener of community members is one of its most important. Following each municipal election, appointments are made to various Commissions, Boards and Committees that assist the City Council and staff in carrying out their work. The meetings of these groups are one of the places where the community convenes; a place and context where community members meet to discuss often difficult issues and reach decisions about matters that affect the way we live together. Appointments to the City Commissions, Boards and Committees expire every two years on January 31st following the municipal election. Each member is appointed by the Mayor with the advice and consent of the City Council at a regular public meeting. In the coming months the City will be soliciting applications for these positions in time for the City Council to consider making appointments in February. The City’s Commissions, Boards and Committees include the Planning Commission, Architectural Review Board, Mobile Home Rent Stabilization Board, Bluffs Management Advisory Board, Tree Advisory Board, Downtown “T” Business Advisory Board, Carpinteria First Committee, Integrated Pest Management
Committee and the Environmental Review Committee. You can also get involved by volunteering. For example, the City’s HOST and Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) programs are always in need of volunteers. HOST volunteers provide information to visitors from the Downtown visitor center kiosk from Memorial Day through Labor Day. CERT volunteers participate in emergency preparation training to help them prepare to assist their families and neighbors in the event of a disaster. Many current and past City Council members were first members of one of these appointed bodies and/or volunteered through a City program. I encourage anyone interested to consider serving their community through a City appointment or by volunteering. The crucial and fundamental role of city government as convener would be impossible without an engaged citizenry because reaching agreement on important matters does not occur at a point in time but instead is ongoing and evolving. Carpinterians have navigated a path to a successful community by being engaged, expressing opinions, and showing respect and tolerance for our differences. In an increasingly complex and challenging world, the willingness of Carpinterians to come together and work on challenging issues bodes well for its future. Information about serving on City Commissions, Boards and Committees, including any applicable eligibility requirements, can be found on the City Clerk page of the City’s website or by contacting Fidela Garcia, City Clerk, at (805) 755-4403. For information about volunteering, please contact Mimi Audelo at (805) 755-4401.

HOSTs gather at year-end celebration.
HOST Volunteers Selected as City’s Fall Community Partner The HOST Volunteers have been selected as the City’s fall 2018 Community Partner Award Recipients. Every weekend from Memorial Day through Labor Day, HOSTs volunteer their time at the downtown Visitor Center greeting visitors, answering questions about the Carpinteria Valley and providing information on activities that appeal to a variety of interests. HOSTs work in teams of two on either Friday, Saturday, or Sunday in two hour shifts (10am, noon, and 2pm). The City’s HOST Program officially began in 2006 after a successful pilot program. When the program first started, volunteers set up a table, chairs, and a canopy at the Seal Fountain in the Downtown where they greeted and assisted visitors. Eventually, the HOSTs needed more space and in 2009 they arranged for the design, permitting, and construction of the HOST Kiosk at the Seal Fountain. Over the years the HOSTs have greeted tens of thousands of visitors from almost every state and myriad countries and have donated thousands of hours of time. The Program is led by the HOST Steering Committee, who provide critical leadership and help set the direction of the program. The committee’s work also includes coordination of maintenance and repair of the HOST Kiosk, updating and tracking kiosk materials; working as HOST Day Captains, and recruiting and mentoring new volunteers. The HOST Program recently completed another successful season greeting more than 3,000 visitors from 36 states and nine countries. HOSTs also participated in First Friday festivities by keeping the Visitor Center open later during the these events. The City would like to thank all of the HOSTs for their volunteer efforts and congratulate them as the City’s fall 2018 Community Partner Award Recipient. If you are interested in joining the program or learning more, please contact Mimi Audelo at (805)-755-4401 or mimia@ci.carpinteria.ca.us.
Are you STORM-Ready?
The damage to our hillsides from the Thomas Fire is still evident as the next storm season approaches. New growth has not reached the levels needed to avoid the possibility of flooding and debris flows. Preparing now will help you handle whatever situation Mother Nature hands us. Here are five steps to help you become STORM-Ready: 1) Sign up for emergency alerts at www.awareandprepare.org. This is the Santa Barbara County emergency alerting system. 2) Make an emergency plan for you and your household. Your plan should include what to do if you are home when the emergency starts as well as if you are away. Be sure to include an out of town contact in your communications plan. 3) Build an emergency kit for your home, work, and vehicle. Kits should include important papers and supplies you will need if evacuated. Also, have enough supplies on hand if you need to shelter in place. Remember, utilities may be off during this time. Check your batteries. Make sure your flashlights and radio work. 4) Be aware of your surroundings. Whether at home or at work, know the flood risks in your area. 5) Don’t wait for an evacuation order. Leave the area if you feel unsafe.
Debris Flow Risk Map Available On-Line
Santa Barbara County Office of Emergency Management has released an interactive map to help you assess your risk of being impacted by debris flow during 2018 winter storms, including being part of a mandatory evacuation. To access the map, go to www.ReadySBC. org and click on maps. Enter your address to see if you are in or near an extreme risk area.

Storm Ready, Set, Go! Protocols.
The rainfall threshold used to determine potential evacuations is 0.8” in one hour. If the National Weather Service predicts this level of storm intensity, the County will start the Storm Ready Set Go protocols. • READY -- Given enough time (72-48 hours in advance), the Ready advisory will alert the community about an incoming storm. • SET -- The Set message is an evacuation warning that will go out to the affected areas (48-24 hours in advance) asking residents to prepare to leave. • GO -- If the storm remains a threat, the Go evacuation order will inform residents in the debris flow risk area to leave now (less than 24 hours before the predicted rain event). If you need assistance evacuating, don’t wait. It may be difficult to reach you once the rain event begins. Residents near debris flow risk areas or adjacent to any creek should be attentive, stay informed, and make their own decisions about if and when to leave.

Work Continues on City’s General Plan Update
The City of Carpinteria’s General Plan/Coastal Plan (GP/CP) is the primary planning document for the City and realizes the City’s vision of high quality of life, small beach town character, and natural resource preservation through the identification of issue areas, development of objectives, and policy implementation. The City has embarked on a journey to update the General Plan/LCP over the next 2+ years. This entails targeted updates to the existing 2003 combined General Plan/LCP document. Specifically, to land uses in key areas including the Downtown, the Carpinteria Bluffs and the research industrial park. There will be two brand new elements of the General Plan: 1) the Climate Change and Resiliency Element, which will be based on the forthcoming Carpinteria Sea Level Rise Vulnerability Assessment and Vulnerability and Adaptation Plan, and 2) the Healthy Community Element, a multi-disciplinary element that focuses on health in every policy. The public is encouraged to participate. The City’s website contains much information on the efforts to date and details regarding upcoming opportunities to get involved.
Housing Proposal Updates
Proposed Skate Park Conceptual Plans Completed
A long-anticipated local skate park recently took another step toward reality. Newly completed conceptual plans offer a first glimpse into the proposed 14,000-square-foot skate boarding facility neighboring City Hall. The design, developed by Mears Design Group and Dreamland Skateparks, features three main skating areas: a faux streetscape, a hook-shaped 6-foot deep bowl, and a skateable amphitheater. The skate park project is a joint effort between the City and the Carpinteria Skate Foundation. Skate Foundation Board member Jason Campbell said that his board is pleased with the plans and the opportunity to work with Dreamland Skateparks, the design firm behind some of the best skate parks in the world. He said that the skateable amphitheater is intended to double as a special events venue, which could provide a stream of income to help sustain the park. Additionally, Campbell is excited about the “Anacapa Ramp” that is shaped like the island’s arch rock. Other noteworthy elements of the project include a rest area with shade and picnic tables that could accommodate food trucks for special events. A restroom and lighting for evening skating events are also included.

An application to construct a two-story 49,250 square-foot 50-unit assisted-living building at 5464 Carpinteria Avenue has recently been submitted. This building would be occupied by the Memory Care unit replacing the 19-bed Memory Care wing in the existing 70-unit GranVida Phase 1 community.
Creek Park restoration Underway
The City has begun the restoration of Carpinteria Creek Park to put it back to its original condition following the damage that occurred in the January 9th flooding tragedy. The park was inundated from rain waters and severely damaged with mud and wood debris deposits. The restoration project includes major repairs to the park irrigation system, restoration of the park turf and landscape areas, a cleanup of the play area, and work on the park signage. The park has also suffered from significant graffiti vandalism causing additional costs. The $95,000 restoration project is expected to be completed before the end of the year. For information contact the Parks Department (805) 755-4449.
Annual City Beach Berm to be Constructed
The possibility of powerful storms causing high and dangerous surf comes each winter along the Pacific Coast. Notwithstanding the fact that Carpinteria beaches face south, our shoreline has a long history of coastal flooding due to high tides, strong on-shore winds and powerful ocean waves. To prevent damage to public and private improvements, the City has constructed a winter-time sand berm along the City beach since 1983. The berm, comprised of beach sand, provides a measure of protection against ocean flooding and provides city emergency response crews time to mobilize in the event of an extreme storm. The winter protection berm is scheduled to be constructed after Thanksgiving and takes about 5 days to complete. The City reminds everyone that it is important for safety to stay off of the beach and away from the tractor when the berm is being constructed. The project is funded by the beach front homeowners and the City of Carpinteria and permitted by the California Coastal Commission, Army Corps of Engineers, and Regional Water Quality Control Board. For information contact Matt Roberts (805) 755-4449 or email mattr@ci.carpinteria.ca.us/.

Storm Readiness Underway, Sandbags Available
A variety of winter storm preparations are underway throughout the City in anticipation of the upcoming winter season. At the Salt Marsh the Santa Barbara County Flood Control District has completed removal of sediment that was deposited during last winters’ storms. This work is a critical part of preparations for the coming winter. The City’s Public Works Department prioritizes drain cleanouts each year prior to the winter rains. This year, more than 16 storm drain inlets were identified for vactor cleaning. Public Works will continue to monitor and clear drains throughout the winter. Residents are encouraged to contact the Public Works Department at (805) 684-5405 Monday - Thursday 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Friday 7:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., or, if after hours, the Sheriff Department dispatch at (805) 683-2724 if they are aware of a plugged drainage inlet/outlet. Finally, the City continues to maintain storage of sand at City Hall for residents that would like to come and fill their own bags in preparation for winter storm runoff. This year, the City switched from polypropylene to the more environmentally friendly burlap sandbags to reduce plastics in the environment. For more information or to fill sandbags, visit City Hall at 5775 Carpinteria Avenue, (805) 684-5405.

Harbor Seal Rookery Annual Beach Closure Set for December 1st
From December 1st through May 31st the beach at the base of Casitas Pier extending 750 feet east and west will be closed for the harbor seal pupping season. The Carpinteria seal rookery is one of four locations on the California coast recognized as a sanctuary to protect Harbor Seals. The beach closure allows seals to birth and nourish their pups, who mature between four to seven years and live 30 to 40 years. The Marine Mammal Protection Act prohibits disturbances of Harbor Seals at any time of the year, but especially during the birthing season. Fines for disturbing the seals can be as high as $10,000. Harbor Seals can be viewed at the Carpinteria Seal Rookery bluff-top; pedestrian access is available to the bluff-top via Tar Pits Park or Dump Road. Additionally, if you see a Harbor Seal or pup on the beach outside of the rookery, do not touch it and stay a good distance away; do not walk between the water and the pup. Seal pups are left on the beach by their mothers while they forage for fish, squid, clams and shellfish. If you see a seal that needs help, you can call the Channel Islands Marine and Wildlife Institution (CIMWI) at (805) 567-1506 or visit www.cimwi.org/. If you would like to volunteer for Carpinteria Seal Watch, please call (805) 684-2247.
…And Food Waste
Santa Barbara County is working to reduce the amount of food it throws away. Local agencies, non-profits, businesses, and volunteers have been working together to connect food providers with food rescue programs and distribution centers. In the U.S. 30% of our trash is consumable food that could be going to people in need. Are you a local business interested in helping out? Visit www.cecsb.org/santa-barbara-county-food-rescue/ for more information and to get in touch.
No More Film (plastics)
Plastic bags, plastic wrap, bubble wrap, and all other film plastics (meaning anything that isn’t a hard plastic 1-7) CANNOT be recycled. These items are trash.
