Resilient Carpinteria

What a story! Emerging from fire and flood, a group of young men from Carpinteria High School rise to the top of the high school soccer world, winning the California Interscholastic Federation Regional championship; the first in school history. By now you likely have read or heard about this incredible Carpinteria story. Perhaps you attended the dramatic championship game in the rain at the high school, were at the Linden Avenue parade celebrating the championship or watched the recent City Council meeting where the team was recognized. There are many reasons to celebrate the team’s success, not the least of which being the support provided to these athletes from their families, classmates, teachers and other faculty at the high school and school district. The team’s success, improbable given the disruption and stress on students and their families created by the disaster and subsequent evacuations, can be viewed as one significant chapter in a story about community resilience. Through the Thomas Fire and 1/9 Debris Flow Carpinteria has proven itself a resilient community. Carpinteria’s infrastructure, economy, institutions and social networks weathered these disastrous events and continue to thrive and support our successful, small beach town. With that said, a disaster provides experiences from which we learn. Improved understanding of risks educates the ongoing work to mitigate hazards that our community is vulnerable to, improv-

ing community resiliency for the future. Carpinteria is known as a community that cares. Understanding the role that Carpinteria organizations and institutions play in caring for people in our community, in particular our most vulnerable residents, and creating strategies to support this critical work, is perhaps some of the most important disaster mitigation work that we can do. As Carpinteria and the greater region continue recovery from the Thomas Fire and 1/9 Debris Flow disasters, City and County officials are also working to plan and implement mitigation strategies capable of reducing or eliminating longterm risk to hazards such as earthquakes, fires and floods. Coastal communities in Santa Barbara county like Carpinteria are vulnerable to multiple hazards. While our preparedness to respond may be very good, there will always be opportunities to work in advance of such disasters on projects and programs capable of avoiding or lessening their impacts on the community. The Santa Monica debris basin, a part of the areas flood control infrastructure that was built in the early 1970’s in response to identified flood hazard risks, is an example of an infrastructure mitigation project that due to its design (and its maintenance by the County Flood Control District) was particularly effective in avoiding loss of life and property during the 1/9 Debris Flow event. And, as important as such infrastructure is in mitigating risks and supporting community resiliency, the Carpinteria High School soccer team’s success story illustrates well that disaster mitigation projects and programs don’t stop at infrastructure, they also involve working together as a community to support individuals and families such that they have the strength to endure, recover, and move forward. In this context, resiliency can mean just having the capacity to get back to our daily work and routines. But resiliency can also mean winning a soccer championship.

Meet Lieutenant Brian Thielst, Chief of Police Services for Carpinteria

Lieutenant Brian Thielst is the City’s Chief of Police, overseeing all law enforcement operations in Carpinteria.

The Food Liaison Selected as City’s Community Partner for Spring 2018

Located in the Shepard Place Shops (1033 Casitas Pass Road) The Food Liaison serves up delicious food, provides catering services, and cooking classes as well. Not only do the owners Nirasha and Jason Rodriguez operate a successful Carpinteria business, they also contribute to the Carpinteria community. For the past three years The Food Liaison has employed local young men and women from Girls Inc., The Howard School, and Cate School through externship and internship programs, where they teach the importance of a strong work ethic, leadership, and responsibility. Additionally, Nirasha serves on the Carpinteria High School Culinary Program Advisory Board and is an Advisory Committee Board Member of Career Technical Education at Carpinteria High School where she influences youth mentorship through vocational-technical certification curriculum. The Food Liaison has also contributed healthy menu options to The Howard School lunch program introducing students to a variety of sustainable cuisine and encouraging diets that help to keep their energy, focus, and challenge their palettes. During the Thomas Fire, The Food Liaison was involved in an effort that provided approximately 2,950 meals to the Thomas Fire first responders, thanks to the generosity of their corporate and private clients. They delivered the meals to both Ventura and Santa Barbara Counties, stopping at road blocks to feed the CHP and Sheriff ’s Deputies, staging areas to feed Dozer Operators and Fire Fighters, and to the Helipads to feed the aerial support staff. This past summer, The Food Liaison also hosted “Christmas in July” in honor of the late Michael Towbes. It was a week-long fund raising and awareness event that raised approximately $40,000 benefitting Girls Inc., Carpinteria Arts Center, Plaza Playhouse (Alcazar) Theatre, Franklin Trail, The Howard School, and Forrest Holt. The City is grateful for the many contributions of The Food Liaison and congratulate Jason and Nirasha and their staff on being selected as the City’s Community Partner Award Recipient for spring 2018.

Shark attack on seals conﬁrmed by Marine & Wildlife Institute

Peter Howorth of Channel Islands Marine & Wildlife Institute reported that a white shark off Carpinteria State Beach killed two harbor seals on March 28. An unidentiﬁed witness told a Carpinteria Seal Watch volunteer that he witnessed the attacks at about 9:30 a.m. that morning, Howorth emailed. “He explained that he had just seen a white shark leap out of the water near the shore with a seal in its mouth. He had seen another seal attacked at the same location the same morning.” The seal watcher checked the seal rookery and saw no signs of the attacks, but further east, he saw a harbor seal with a large bite out of its back. He estimated the bite diameter at about a foot and a half, which would indicate a shark of approximately 14- to 16-feet, either an immature white shark or a young adult, according to Ralph Collier, chair of the Shark Research Committee. Lifeguards told Howorth that a seal carcass or two washed up at Carpinteria State Park two days later on Friday, March 30.

Amateur and experienced cyclists get ready at the Carpinteria Bluffs for a community bike ride to Ventura in May, 2014.

SBBIKE leads Carpinteria community ride to Earth Day festival

On Saturday, April 21, SBBIKE will lead a community bike ride for cyclists from Carpinteria to Alameda Park in Downtown Santa Barbara for the Earth Day celebration (about 12 miles). Riders will meet at Wardholme Torrey Pine at 10:45 a.m. and should arrive in Santa Barbara around noon. Participants must be 16 years or above and should be able to ride a bike safely with the ability to brake, change gears and balance while stopping and starting at all traffic signals. Led by Certified League Cycling Instructors, community bike rides are “no-drop rides,” meaning that every participant respects traffic laws and nobody is left behind. Riders can choose to return on their own, take the train or a bus. Free bike valet is provided by SBBIKE volunteers. “Riding a bike from Carpinteria to Santa Barbara is the best way to celebrate Earth Day: amazing ocean views, no carbon footprint and a free exercise to attend a fun community event!” said Christine Bourgeois, SBBIKE education director. For more information visit sbbike.org, or call 699-6301.

Missing Carpinteria teen found with mother

Carpinteria High School student Eternity Pittman was safely located with her mother on April 6 by the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Ofﬁce. Pittman’s father reported his 16-year-old daughter missing on Feb. 2, and Pittman was located after detectives learned that she had planned to run away and reunite with her mother, 42-year-old Jennifer McCord, with whom she had lost contact approximately one year ago. Because Pittman is a minor, the Sheriff’s Ofﬁce will not release any additional information.

The Santa Barbara County Education Office announced the winners of this year’s Classified School Employees of the Year at its monthly meeting on April 5.

They honestly make my job so much easier.” Ochoa, Martinez, Moreno and Morelli were nominated for their work on the “bus bridge” during the Montecito mudslide. The team would start at 4:15am picking up people locally in Carpinteria who needed to get to Santa Barbara and then pick up people in Santa Barbara who needed to get to Carpinteria. They would then repeat the pick-up and drop-off route in the afternoon. “Classified employees are essential to the success of our schools,” said Santa Barbara County Superintendent of Schools Susan Salcido. “Classified employees support our students, schools and communities. We are grateful for their dedication and leadership in meeting the needs of our students across the county.” The nomination process started at the district level, where each district was invited to nominate classified employees from the different categories. A county committee reviewed the nominations and selected the county’s nominees. Award winners will be forwarded to the state for consideration as the California Classified School Employee of the Year. The state winners will be honored in Sacramento later this year.

Warning remains for bacteria levels at Carpinteria State Beach

Glorious small gardens

CVN

Last week’s CVN coverage of the new Community Garden was excellent. Those who attended the opening of the Garden last Friday experienced a transformation from what had been a weed-filled lot and is now many green and glorious small gardens planted by our own fellow Carpinterians. This would not have happened without the foresight of our five city council members who secured the property for the city, the direction of our city manager Dave Durflinger and the vision and hard work from Matt Roberts who brought everything together. The garden will be a cornerstone of our community for a long time. Not only does it provide the opportunity to grow vegetables, fruits and flowers, it is a public place where people can enjoy another aspect of the beautiful town in which we live. Congratulations to all the green thumbs and supporters who worked together to make this garden possible.

Why gun buybacks are important

The Coalition Against Gun Violence congratulates the Carpinteria City Council for voting to participate as a sponsor in our May 12 Gun Buyback at Earl Warren Showgrounds from 8 a.m. to noon. These additional funds will enable us to increase advertising to the Central Coast. Santa Barbara responded to community requests to have a gun buyback in 2014, 2015 and 2017. This fourth gun buyback will be more successful and demonstrate a need for county-wide support for future gun buybacks. Why do people want gun buybacks? Families are more aware that a gun in the home makes it 22 times more likely to be used against that family in a homicide, suicide or accidental shooting. There are 1.7 million homes with chil-

dren in the US with loaded and unlocked guns. Every day 8 to 9 children are killed by guns. The highest numbers of gun deaths in America are suicides, followed by domestic violence and homicides. Another unspoken issue is the risk of firearms in homes of the elderly with dementia or Alzheimer’s Disease. No city is immune or safe from gun violence. Our community has endured two mass shootings—the Goleta Post Office and Isla Vista. Additionally, Carpinteria lost two of our own, Denise Cohen and Derrick “Bo” Taylor, in the Las Vegas massacre. A gun buyback is not about criminals turning in guns—but yet consider—the prohibited person, the convicted felon who may still possess a firearm. This is an anonymous way for that person to turn in a weapon. There are more than 20,000 illegally owned guns in California. At CAGV’s first gun buyback press conference, a member of the press asked, “What would you consider a success?” Immediately, Santa Barbara County Attorney Joyce Dudley said, “One gun. One gun could save a life.”

Time for a change

At a time when the relationship between public safety agencies is paramount, we need to consider who is best suited to work cooperatively as the voice and leader of our Sheriff’s Department going forward. Sheriff Bill Brown has had a long and distinguished 40-year public safety career. He is a fine man with a wonderful family and I publicly supported him in his last election. However, the Sheriff has since lost the support of his own rank and file, the majority of the county supervisors, our county’s firefighters, emergency managers, and so many more. The men and women of the Sheriff’s Department are more important than the person who holds the elected position. As a former 12-year elected Sheriff and 3-year appointed County Fire Chief, I learned that there comes a time when change is good and necessary. I believe for the Sheriff’s Department, that time is now. I believe Lieutenant Olmstead is the

best choice to lead the Department going forward. He is a highly experienced law enforcement professional. He is smart and will surround himself with the best available men and women who understand the mission of the agency and the necessity to keep staffing adequate to accomplish the variety of challenges they face 24-hours a day. Lieutenant Olmstead has received the support of the vast majority of the deputy sheriffs and custody deputies, as well as the county firefighters. These are the men and women who are the first line of contact and support during the challenges we all face on a daily basis. They know who they trust to lead them into the future and they ask for your support now.

Won’t believe it

The March For Our Lives in Washington DC was a fraud. It was not an organic student movement. It was an anti-gun, anti-2nd amendment, anti-Trump protest. According to research by Maryland sociologist, Dana R. Fisher, only 10 percent of those attending were under the age of 18. The majority were Hillary Clinton supporters (60 percent). Furthermore, it was organized, financed and advertised by many leftist heavy hitters, including Soros’ Move-On, the Giffords, Planned Parenthood, the LA Women’s March, Everytown and numerous Hollywood elites. Once again, we see a corrupt, fake news media carrying the water of the radical left. And, once again, we see students being used as political pawns.

Soccer celebration comes to city hall

By Lea Boyd

The history-making Carpinteria High School boys varsity soccer team received a certificate of commendation from the Carpinteria City Council at Monday night’s meeting. Having won the first CIF state regional championship for any sport in school history, the team has been celebrated with media coverage, school honors and even a downtown parade. Many of the athletes attended the council meeting where Mayor Fred Shaw told them, “You’ve definitely put Carpinteria on the soccer map. You’ve made us all proud.” Coach Leo Quintero thanked the council and community for all their support “throughout this magical run that we’ve had.” Not only are the teens phenomenal athletes, assistant coach Ryan Warner added, they demonstrate great character and have made the coaches proud with the way that they conduct themselves. “You’ll be talking about this for the rest of your life,” Councilman Gregg Carty told the team. “Your kids will know about this, and your grandkids will know about it.”

Mayor Fred Shaw presents the Carpinteria High School varsity soccer team with a certificate of commendation on behalf of the city for having won the first CIF state regional championship for any sport in the school’s history. pinteria’s $500 support of the program translates into five handguns purchased from residents. The event aims to reduce gun violence and comes on the heels of deadly school shootings and other episodes of gun violence across the country. Mayor Fred Shaw noted that though the city’s contribution is relatively small, it’s a gesture of support and should “let our kids know that this is important to us.”

Council supports Gun Buyback Event Reserve policy edit The City of Carpinteria will sponsor a Gun Buyback Event put on by the Coali- frees city funds

tion Against Gun Violence on Saturday, May 12 from 8 a.m. to noon at Earl Warren Showgrounds in Santa Barbara. Car-

As part of a long-term strategy to keep the City of Carpinteria financially afloat, the city council voted this week to revise

the city’s general fund reserve policy. The decision will allow the Financial and Economic Uncertainty Fund, which is the largest of the city’s three general fund reserves, to drop from 55 percent to 40 percent of annual expenditures. The current $4.5 million reserve will be reset to $3.3 million, which will free up $1.2 million for the council’s use in the budget for 2018/2019.

Repairs planned for damaged roads

The damage done to Carpinteria streets by hundreds of dump trucks loaded with tons of debris after the Jan. 9 floods and

debris flow is being assessed now and will be repaired in the fall. The city council voted unanimously on April 9 to close out the pavement maintenance project that was interrupted by the disasters just after it started. City contractor Pavement Engineering Incorporated is currently assessing the dozens of local roadways that received heavy use after the storm by analyzing, among other data, photos from before, during and after debris hauling. PEI will calculate the cost of the impact, and the city is working with federal agencies in hopes of getting reimbursed for the upcoming road repair.

City repurposes lighting dollars

Property tax funds annually dedicated to the City of Carpinteria’s lighting district far exceed the cost of keeping the city well lit, and as such, the city council voted unanimously on April 9 to move $1.16 million from the overflowing lighting reserve into the city’s underfunded general fund. Additionally, 52 percent of the annual revenue to the district, which amounts to about $200,000 this year, will be shifted to the general fund for use by the Public Works Department and toward a Pension Trust Fund. Most of the $182,000 used annually for lighting is the cost of electricity; most of the city’s street lights belong to Southern California Edison.

Obituaries

John Richard Schmidhauser

John Richard Schmidhauser, a giant and pioneer in the field of judicial politics, former chair of the Political Science Department at USC, and former U.S. Congressman, passed away peacefully in his sleep on February 21, 2018, at age 96 in Santa Barbara, California. Schmidhauser was born in the Bronx, N.Y. He lost his father when he was a teenager and spent the Great Depression living lean with his mother in Maryland, an experience that shaped his work ethic and engendered in him empathy for society’s marginalized, and a lifelong support for issues related to social justice. Following his high school graduation, thanks to community sponsored music training, Schmidhauser enlisted in the U.S. Navy at the outbreak of World War II. He served on the aircraft carrier Bon Homme Richard in the Pacific theater as a communications officer and French hornist in the ship’s band and, following VJ-Day, as a member of the occupying force in Japan. He enrolled in college under the GI Bill and earned a BA from the University of Delaware and an MA and PhD from the University of Virginia, in political science, with honors. While a student, Schmidhauser bartended at casinos in Ocean City, Maryland and played French horn and trumpet in various bands. At the University of Virginia, Schmidhauser met a student in the Botany PhD program, Thelma Ficker, and they soon married and started a family. From 1954–65 and 1967–73, Schmidhauser served as a professor at the University of Iowa, where he produced groundbreaking scholarly work on the U.S. Supreme Court. “He was a pioneer in the field of judicial behavior,” said Joel Grossman, one of Schmidhauser’s first PhD students at the University of Iowa. Grossman, a political science professor at Johns Hopkins,

said one of Schmidhauser’s books, The Supreme Court: Its Politics, Personalities and Procedures, set new standards for both teaching and research about the Court. While serving as Chair for the Johnson County Iowa Democratic Committee, Schmidhauser agreed to run for a seat in the U.S. Congress. Given little chance in the heavily Republican district, he scored an upset victory in the 1964 election. Representing the 1st District of Iowa, Schmidhauser was particularly proud of sponsoring bills to improve worker safety, and for passage of many bills that were part of the “Great Society” legacy. Schmidhauser served a two-year term in Congress that ended in January 1967 and then returned to the University of Iowa. In 1973, he began a 19-year career in the Political Science Department at USC, where he was chairman of the department for many years. In 1991, he won the USC Raubenheimer Outstanding Senior Faculty Award and he received the Golden Key award for comparative research. Schmidhauser ’s warm demeanor made it easy for his graduate students to follow him after class as he walked to his car. It was common to see students talking to him as he was getting ready to drive off, eager to glean any last pearls of wisdom from him. Alison Dundes Renteln, professor of political science at USC, said: “He was a charismatic and brilliant leader, and a great colleague and great mentor. He was just a gem.” He moved his family to Carpinteria in the 1980s and enjoyed his hobbies of gardening, swimming and playing the French horn in local orchestras. After retiring from USC in 1992, he taught political science for several years at the University of California, Santa Barbara. In his later years, he remained active in local causes, volunteered at the Friends of the Carpinteria Library Bookstore, wrote editorials for the local newspaper, and fought to preserve Carpinteria’s coastal bluffs. Schmidhauser is survived by Thelma, his wife of 66 years, his children, Steven (Tieyan Han), Paul (Cindy Hughes), Thomas, John (Marilyn Schneider), Martha, Sara, Susan, four grandchildren and one great grandchild. He will be greatly missed. A celebration of his life will be held in Santa Barbara on April 28 at 2 p.m. In lieu of flowers consider a donation to the Friends of the Carpinteria Library Bookstore.

Lorena Charlotte Rose Vance Carreño Sanchez July 23, 1939 – March 31, 2018

Lorena Charlotte Rose Vance Carreño Sanchez, aka “Sugar” and “Grandma Shudu” was born into this world July 23, 1939 and went on to be with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, March 31, 2018. Sugar was a loving mother, sister, friend and wife. She was born in Los Angeles, Calif. and relocated to Carpinteria at the age of 5 where she resided until she retired in Buellton. Charlotte spent most of her working career at Jostens where she worked as a Production Quality Manager for their ring manufacturing facility in Summerland, Calif. She also enjoyed working at Infrared Industries, Bookkeeper ’s Business Service, International Transducer, and Plan Member Services. She thoroughly enjoyed her time working for her daughter, Cristina, as her Office Manager and Sales Associate. Charlotte earned her California Insurance License and her Series 6 Securities License. As a child, she was proud to be known as the youngest student of the Class of 1944 LIFE Bible College at Angeles Temple in Los Angeles. When Sugar wasn’t working, she

cherished spending time with her family and friends, hosting her famous taco and enchilada parties. It brought her great joy to play music and sing with her siblings and friends, as well. It was not uncommon to open the garage to make room for countless jam sessions. Sugar played the organ, keyboards, guitar, fiddle ukulele and banjo. She had the most beautiful singing voice. In addition to her musical talent, Charlotte was known as a Poet Laureate to her friends and family. She had an incredible gift of eulogizing her dear departed loved ones and friends in the form of a poem. Sugar was preceded in death by her mother, Anabelle May Ackerman Vance and father, Edward William Vance, siblings Marlan George Vance (Betty), Nathaniel Reed Vance, Georgiana Vance Wells and Frederick Eugene Vance, and niece, Melanie Wells.

City extends moratorium on commercial cannabis By DeBra Herrick

On April 10, the City of Carpinteria voted unanimously to extend the moratorium on commercial cannabis activities for another year to allow time for the city to develop and adopt an ordinance to regulate cannabis activities at the city level. The moratorium will expire on May 8, 2019 if it is not lifted sooner, and cannot be renewed because the state will not allow for city policies on marijuana use to override state provisions for more than two years. In January, the State of California began issuing commercial cannabis licenses where not otherwise prohibited by local regulations. Per the moratorium, no commercial cannabis licenses have been issued in Carpinteria. Prohibited by the city’s temporary ordinance are commercial activities including dispensaries, distribution, retail, microbusinesses, temporary cannabis events and testing laboratories. Prior to the evening’s vote, the Council had received a number of emails expressing concern that the city was restricting access to medical marijuana, stated Councilman Al Clark. Community Development Director Steve Goggia responded to the public’s concern by detailing how

“several years back we created a zone code for the personal use of growing marijuana and a zone code for medical marijuana, allowing deliveries to be made by a person’s caregiver.” Currently, if a person is acting as one’s primary caregiver they can deliver medical marijuana to a resident in Carpinteria. “If someone in Carpinteria wants medical marijuana they can also use the provisions for growing for personal use and have their own six plants,” stated Goggia. During the public comments, pharmaceutical scientist and cancer biologist Michael Masterman-Smith, who heads a marijuana farm and pharmaceutical laboratory outside city limits in unincorporated Santa Barbara, encouraged the city to look towards swiftly adopting provisions for commercial cannabis activities. Masterman-Smith’s research is in brain cancer stem cells. Research from UCLA has shown that the most aggressive types of cancer might potentially be treatable by cannabinoid therapy, according to Masterman-Smith. “An FDA-approved product is the end game,” he said. On April 18, Masterman-Smith will lead the first pharmaceutical company in the US in a cannabinoid-based botanical drug trial for epileptic seizures.

School board leans against DLI expansion

Though parent demand for Carpinteria Unified School District’s one-year-old Dual Language Immersion program has grown, the school board is unlikely to approve an expansion of the progressive program. At the April 10 board meeting, Canalino School Principal Jamie Persoon presented a recommendation to increase the number of DLI kindergarten

classes at her school from two to three—a proposal that was supported by several parents of incoming kindergartners. Aliso School teachers, however, spoke against expansion, saying the program remains untested and the district doesn’t have sufficient bilingual staffing to expand. Read full school board meeting coverage at coastalview.com starting Friday, April 13.

Ebling moves on

Public Works Director sets his sights on Goleta By cHristian BeamisH As much as the infrastructure projects he has overseen, and the pride he feels regarding the City of Carpinteria’s reputation across the county for getting things done, Charlie Ebeling points to his colleagues as the most gratifying part of his tenure as the city’s Director of Public Works. “People (in Carpinteria) should know what a great city staff they have,” he said, acknowledging in particular the work of Jackie Campbell, now retired, and City Manager Dave Durflinger. In just under a decade, Ebeling reorganized the Public Works department, focusing on getting grants and completing projects—which in turn, gave rise to the aforementioned city reputation for getting things done. Measure A funds enabled quick delivery of projects such as new bike lanes, sidewalks and the bridges at 8th and 9th Streets. Ebeling points to his and the city’s early engagement with Caltrans in the years leading up to the Highway 101 widening and bridge-replacement projects as another of his major successes. Regularly traveling to San Luis Obisbo to meet with Caltrans planners to provide them with a first-hand sense of the needs of the Carpinteria community in regards to watersheds and the overall impact to the city, Ebeling established a good working relationship with the road agency

and laid the groundwork for a smooth construction process. With the project a year ahead of schedule, his trips to SLO appear to have been time well spent. Next up for the 53-year-old Civil Engineer will be his role as Director of Public Works for the City of Goleta. Although he speaks fondly of his time with the City of Carpinteria, Ebeling says that the move to Goleta is “a way to grow my career—it’s a bigger agency. I like to organize public works departments,” he added, “and get goals and objectives done.”

Childhood adversity: a heart attack in the making? Cvn

it takES a viLLagE M a r i a C H E S L E Y, P H D DirECtor of tHE CarPintEria CHiLDrEn’S ProjECt

My grandfather had a heart attack at age 39. Found slumped over the steering wheel of their police car, his partner pushed him to the passenger side and sped to the hospital. Afterward, my grandfather turned in his badge; he was advised to avoid stressful situations if he wanted to live to see my father grow up. Dr. Nadine Burke Harris would not be surprised that my grandfather had a heart attack. Family stories lead me to guess that Pop experienced several Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs). The seminal study suggests most people (64 percent) have at least one ACE; 12 percent of the population has an ACE score of four. Having an ACE score of four nearly doubles the risk of heart disease and cancer. It increases the likelihood of becoming an alcoholic by 700 percent and the risk of attempted suicide by 1200 percent (see acestoohigh.com for the ACE test and more). Because they can lead to such serious and identifiable health problems, Dr. Harris advocates for universal screening for adverse childhood experiences. What if my Pop’s doctor had known he was at double the risk of heart disease? Might he have taken a closer listen to his ticker? Or—and this one is really interesting—might he have talked to my grandfather about reducing his stress load before he had a heart attack? What might have happened if his doctor determined that my grandfather’s body produced an exaggerated stress response because he was so often in “fight or flight” mode as a young boy? What might have happened if my Pop had been prescribed counseling to learn strategies to work with his body to manage stress? What if his teacher had known to encourage him to use those strategies? Children who experience significant adversity but have a loving adult who serves as a buffer are less likely to develop an exaggerated stress response and have their future health impacted. Furthermore, “In some people, adversity can foster perseverance, deepen empathy, (and) strengthen the resolve to protect,” writes Harris. ACEs are not all bad, and they are certainly part of who we are. Remember that roughly 64 percent of us

In nearly any circle, there are friends who experienced significant childhood adversity. ACEs are everyone’s problem. ACEs are not their problem.

have at least one ACE (it’s likely higher in communities living in poverty). All this is to say, even if you don’t have an ACE, chances are decent your spouse or your best friend does. In nearly any circle, there are friends who experienced significant childhood adversity. ACEs are everyone’s problem. ACEs are not their problem. I have lived and worked in many communities: communities of rich and poor, majority and minority, immigrant and we’ve-been-here-so-long-we-don’tknow-how-we-got-here. Everyone wants to do right by his or her kids. Those of us who experienced significant childhood adversity may have extra challenges as parents and grandparents. Dr. Harris’ experience, and mine, is that folks from more privileged backgrounds keep our adversity pretty quiet. Alcoholism, drug use and mental illness are often handled quietly within the family, within the walls of the house. What if people knew? Jobs, friendships and standing in the community could be lost. But the support of health providers and personal allies along with a healthy lifestyle may foster healing. There isn’t a pill to fix childhood trauma or how your body responds to toxic stress, but we know that the basics are important—sleep, exercise, nutrition, mindfulness, mental health and healthy relationships. I encourage all of us to learn more. Dr. Harris will be speaking at Campbell Hall at UCSB on Monday, April 16, at 7 p.m. (it’s free and a simulcast to overflow seating will be available). I also highly recommend her book, “The Deepest Well.” It’s a thought- and emotion-provoking read. I wish my Pop and his doctor had been able to read it.

“Ready Player One”

Steven Spielberg is at his best when channeling his inner seven-year-old. He’s got some good grownup stuff but movies like “E.T.,” “Jurassic Park,” “Hook” and “Indiana Jones” are something else—they evince and evoke childlike wonder in such a compelling way. That’s Spielberg at the top of his game. So it’s natural to have high hopes for “Ready Player One,” which is about a bunch of kids playing video games. Or, to be more specific, it’s about kids, and some lame adults, tooling around in a virtual reality world called “OASIS,” which, in the 2040s, is how everyone spends their time. That’s because the world pretty much sucks otherwise. Evidently there were a bunch of wars and riots and rebellions and things, and what’s left is mostly high-rise trailer parks in places like Columbus, Ohio. Ohio! Truly dystopian. The world may have gone to hell, but at least OASIS is pretty cool. You put on those goggles and gloves, power up your omni-directional treadmill and you can go anywhere, do anything, be anyone. OASIS isn’t portrayed, initially at least, as an (addictive and dangerous) escape from reality; rather, it’s portrayed as an egalitarian, cyber paradise. And that’s all possible because its creator, Halliday, played by actor Mark Rylance, was a pretty good dude who just wanted to nerd-out and play video games and let everyone else do the same. But, in real life, everyone dies, and so Halliday dies, and leaves the fate of the virtual world hanging in the balance. However, as one final nerdy hurrah before his death, Halliday puts an “Easter egg” in OASIS—a hidden prize that can be unlocked by finding and collecting three keys won by mastering three challenges. Sounds like fun, but the real attention-grabber is the prize: a controlling stake in Halliday’s company (valued at a cool half-trillion). Everyone is after it. A really big company, Innovative Online Industries (IOI), which is led by Sorrento, played by Ben Mendelsohn, who wants control of OASIS so that it can put a seizure-inducing level of ads in players’ fields of vision. They’ve even hired a whole army of players whose sole purpose is to find the keys.

There are a few independent players who don’t want IOI to get control of OASIS. Most notably, Parzival, portrayed by actor Tye Sheridan, Art3mis, played by Olivia Cooke, and Aech played by Lena Waithe, are serious flies in IOI’s all-consumer-ing ointment. Luckily, since these noble nerds are pure of heart, and thus are kindred spirits to Halliday, they have an instinctive edge over the soulless IOI troops. Even though IOI has a whole team of professional researchers dedicated to guessing where Halliday put his keys, the amateurs are pummeling them. Still, IOI is rich, which is a major advantage and makes “Ready Player One” a classic underdog story. As I said, Spielberg is at his best when channeling his seven-year-old self. In “Ready Player One,” it’s more like Spielberg is channeling his 14-yearold self. Which isn’t as cool, or compelling. Whereas a child’s wonder, even if somewhat nerdy, is endearing—even inspiring—Spielberg’s gamer story is just, well, awkward… and dorky, and weird and cheesy, but mostly just, gha, awkward. The screenplay, in particular, is about as smooth and stylish as a middle schooler’s first date that no one wants to see, or remember, or be in the vicinity of. “Ready Player One” is a disappointment on the childlike-wonder front. Which isn’t to say it’s a total fail. As someone who grew up in the 80s and 90s, it’s hard not to get a warm and fuzzy feeling from this movie’s continual pop-culture references – from Atari to Terminator to Goldeneye to Twisted Sister to Iron Giant. There’s plenty of nostalgia to go around. “Ready Player One” is enjoyable in some other ways too. For example, its made-for-3D cinematography is engrossing. And, the premise is certainly cool. At the end of the day, insofar as why I liked this movie, I guess it’s mostly because I’m a sucker for Nintendo 64 references. “Ready Player One” is rated PG-13 for sequences of sci-fi action violence, bloody images, some suggestive material, partial nudity and language.

Carpinteria’s eco-consciousness is locally grown CVN

liViNg the greeN life eriN maker As April 22 is right around the corner I thought I would revisit Earth Day, which I first wrote about in this column six years ago. Many people tie the birth of Earth Day to the oil spill in the Santa Barbara Channel in 1969 and the heightened awareness of the impact that humans were having on the environment. The 1969 oil spill was one of several environmental disasters that resulted in the formation of regulatory agencies, the Environmental Protection Agency and California Coastal Commission, and the passage of the Clean Water Act. Today, Earth Day is celebrated globally. While people celebrate it in different ways, the environmental movement that was given a voice in the 1960s has helped shaped policies at the local, state and federal level. Carpinteria has become a leader in reducing waste through source reduction—one of the most effective ways of preventing waste from getting into the environment by not making it available. In 2008, Carpinteria City Council passed an ordinance regulating the distribution of polystyrene foam food containers for take-out food at restaurants. Commonly known as Styrofoam, polystyrene is notoriously hard to recycle, breaks apart easily and is lightweight, which makes it more likely to end up in the environment as windblown-trash. With the passage of the food container regulations, we started seeing a reduction in polystyrene trash in the environment. In late 2017, these regulations were expanded to include all items packaged in Carpinteria and the retail sale of polystyrene foam. Food container regulations were followed by a ban on single-use bags. Getting rid of single-use bags, particularly the thin plastic bags, was a grassroots movement in the community led by Carpinteria Beautiful and the citizens of Carpinteria. When the local Albertsons was remodeled, the management decided they wanted to support those efforts by only providing reusable bags. In 2012, the single-use bag ordinance passed in Carpinteria. Through

that grassroots movement and local regulations, we have reduced the number of bags found during cleanup events from more than 50 to just one or two. We know that community-driven policies are having a positive impact in a number of ways. Through waste audits both on-site at local businesses, and at the Gold Coast Recycling and Transfer station, we can make reasonable estimates about the amounts of different materials in the waste stream. We also collect data at every creek and beach cleanup we do, which helps us understand what items are most commonly ending up in the local environment. In addition to source reduction, making it easy for residents to dispose of certain items increases the likelihood of proper waste management. Carpinteria residents can take advantage of free bulky item pickups for residential households via the Annual Household Goods and Hazardous Waste Day that occurs on the second Saturday of April each year, and the monthly antifreeze, battery, oil and paint drop-offs at City Hall. There are also several battery drop-off locations in Carpinteria for household batteries. Regular volunteer cleanup events, as well as continuing to reduce our singleuse plastics, will help keep pollution out of our local waterways. To help celebrate Carpinteria Beautiful Month and Earth Day, the city and Carpinteria Beautiful will be holding a community-wide cleanup event on Saturday, April 28, from 9 a.m.–noon. In addition to cleanups, there will be tours of the Carpinteria Garden Park, planting and mulch spreading along the Santa Monica Creek as part of the Santa Monica Path Beautification project, and games. Meet us at the Carpinteria Garden Park, 4855 5th St. And don’t forget to do your spring cleaning before Saturday, April 14.You can bring everything except tires, explosives and biohazards to the Annual Household Goods and Hazardous Waste Day, 9 a.m.–1 p.m. on Saturday, April 14 at City Hall, 5775 Carpinteria Ave. Erin Maker is the Environmental Coordinator for the City of Carpinteria.

Girl’s Inc. alum comes full circle

Junior Carpinterian of the Year 2012 Karina Jougla has a message for youth in her home town: “I’d love for young girls and boys in our community and beyond to know that they have a voice and it matters, and I hope that they won’t let anyone hold them back—not fear of what anyone thinks of them, not structural systems in society that restrict who has access to these platforms.” Jougla, an alumna of Girls Inc. of Carpinteria and 2011 Girls Inc. National Scholar, will give the keynote speech at Girls Inc.’s annual “Women of Inspiration” luncheon. Jougla credits her time at Girls Inc. with providing her with the confidence and opportunities that have led to her success, including a degree from Columbia University and a rising career as a marketing associate for Doctors Without Borders. “One of the most invaluable gifts that Girls Inc. gives to girls in our community,” said Jougla, “is the ability to learn social and emotional skills to solve an argument or to advocate for your goals and dreams whether with a teacher, a friend, a congressional representative or an industry leader.” Jougla joined Girls Inc. at five-yearsold, and she draws a line for the direction of her life from that point. She was deeply influenced by her Girls Inc. drama camp teacher and mentor, Asa Olssen, this years’ Carpinterian of the Year. Olssen

took Jougla to Girls Inc. events in Los Angeles with film industry professionals, where Jougla and her “sisters” would advocate for works that were produced by girls, for girls. It was there that she found her voice, developed confidence and became an advocate. “We are thrilled to hear from one of our own this year,” said Victoria Juarez, executive director of Girls Inc. of Carpinteria. each year, the Women of Inspiration luncheon selects a speaker who sets an example in empowered female leadership. Jougla recalls, “I remember being so inspired by the speakers when I attended the luncheon in high school.

Carpinteria roots come to the surface

Girls Inc. of Carpinteria Presents The 10th Annual

No Host Bar

Hailing from a family legacy of local artists and ranchers, plein air painter Whitney brooks abbott lives and works in Carpinteria in the same area that the brooks and abbott families have farmed for generations. On Sunday, april 15, at 3 p.m., abbott will give an artist’s talk at Sullivan Goss – an american Gallery in Santa barbara about her craft, her inspiration and her first solo show at the gallery. “as the curator for her exhibition there are a few reasons i wanted to have Whitney give a talk,” writes Susan bush, curator of contemporary art at Sullivan Goss. “Hearing an artist speak about their work gives another dimension to what we are looking at. We get insights into not only why they create but how they create. We hear their voice as well as see their creative voice. the hope is to make the artist’s work seem less mysterious and more accessible, as well as help us have a better understanding of what we are looking at.” the exhibit on view entitled “resolution,” depicts elements of a natural landscape under siege at the turn Doors Open of the year. The Thomas Fires and January’s floods and at 4:45 mudslides are depicted in abbott’s landscapes as smokediffused light reflected on the ocean, ash covered hills, moisture-filled clouds and alluvial plains. Abbott’s paintings portray a resolution of nature’s drama by offering up the solidity of nature itself. Trees stand strong, fields are fallow and ready to be sown, the ocean cleanses and renews itself, and the artist finds a quiet place to contemplate beauty.

CMS art pilot portends future electives

By Peter Dugre

Art teacher Laurie Pincus describes opening the door to a mothballed art classroom at Carpinteria Middle School like adolescent daredevils would venturing into the abandoned house at the dimly lit edge of their neighborhood. Think a creaking door and cobwebs in faint, dusty light. For Pincus, who wears her passion for the arts on her sleeve, the absence of an art program in the middle school was worthy of a “Goosebumps” story, which made her recent 12-week sixth grade art program pilot at CMS seem all the more triumphant. The art room at CMS had long been repurposed for special education but screamed art potential. There were still water color papers in forgotten cabinets but no brushes or paints, and other scattershot relics of supplies from when the room, an airy vibrant space, had served as a creative environment. Pincus is now applying for a fulltime art teacher position at CMS, which was opened with the support of first-year Principal Ron Briggs and Superintendent Diana Rigby. She speaks of the arts in superlatives and believes art is a missing link in education that’s too vulnerable to budget cuts and a continued emphasis on core subjects to the detriment of electives. “Art is as much of a subject as anything else; it connects to everything else,” Pincus said. The 12-week program had the entire sixth grade and their teachers involved in weekly classes. Students created colorful masks fashioned from palm husks for the final project of the program, and will showcase them at the school in May. Pincus and Briggs both highlighted the finished projects as hands-on examples of why arts and electives in general enrich educational programs. “What I want is for the students to feel a sense of achievement and success after working on a project to its completion,” Briggs said. In addition to the tangible execution of projects enabled by elective courses, like potential future offerings of wood shop, band and computer technology, Pincus emphasized that art allows students who might not thrive academically to gain a sense of identity. “There are no erasers. There are no mistakes in art. Only you can do it the way you do it,” Pincus said. She breaks the ice with students who have little background in art by having them draw blindfolded or with their off hand. The focus is on letting creativity flow. Now that the art room lived through its 12-week pilot, it’s populated with scores of masks climbing the 20-foot

Briggs said funding for the program came from the CUSD general fund, and as a test run the pilot was highly successful at building a positive culture among sixth graders transitioning into the next stage of their education. The challenge ahead will be in retooling CMS scheduling to incorporate more elective opportunities in art, music and computer technology, among other subjects. Though preliminary, Briggs sees a future at CMS where all grades will have art opportunities that are tied into humanities courses as a way to enrich subject matter found in textbooks. Students who have choices in electives, he said, often take greater ownership and develop a positive emotional connection to their school. In turn, overall performance in core classes improves. “The students gain that stick-to-it-ness and grit that it takes to accomplish something like mastering the clarinet,” Briggs said. “It’s a different reason to want to come to school and feel positive about it.” On the front lines of bringing art back at CMS, Pincus said that art reaches students in a way that math or history

cannot. For some students, it helps them to discover their thing and who they are. Feeling supported and successful brings students into the fold who might otherwise drift into behavioral issues fueled

by a lack of confidence in core academics. “They have to take a risk (in art), and when they start to believe in it, it’s magic,” Pincus said.

CHS Girls Tennis wins 2017–18 CIF-SS Academic Championship

The Carpinteria High School girls tennis team earned the 2017–18 CIF Southern Section Academic Championship for all schools with a population under 1,499. As a team, the Warriors had a cumulative, unweighted GPA of 3.92 and earned the academic championship for the second time in school history and first time in more than a decade. “What an accomplishment and source of school pride,” exclaimed CHS Athletic Director Pat Cooney. “Think about the improbability of achieving such a prestigious award... there are only two divisions for all the schools in the CIF Southern Section that compete,” said Cooney. Part of the CIF-SS Ford Academic Awards Program sponsored annually by the Southern California Ford Dealers with assistance from the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, the award ceremony was recently held in Los Alamitos for the 32nd time. To be considered, teams must have at least five student-athletes with a minimum of a 3.0 GPA average (on a 4.0 scale) in the first semester or first two quarters of the 2017–18 school year. The highest team GPA in each sport category by enrollment determines the winner. Schools are divided into two enrollment categories: 1,500 and above, and 1,499 and below. The team with the highest GPA in each category receives the award. The team awards, based on a cumulative grade point average, are awarded in 23 team sports. Entries from 1,684 teams were received this year. The academic team winners will be honored in a pregame ceremony before the Angels play the Baltimore Orioles on May 1.

Warriors and Rams go tooth-and-nail at the net

BY ALONZO OROZCO

Crosstown rivals clashed on the hardwood as Carpinteria hosted Cate in a Tri-Valley League (TVL) high school boys volleyball matchup at Warrior Gym on April 5. In a tightly contested battle, the visiting Rams came away with the victory, sweeping the Warriors 3-0 by game scores of 26-24, 25-23 and 25-21. “Both teams brought offensive ﬁre to the court and played great defense, making each rally longer and longer as the match went on” said Cate coach K.C. Collins, whose team improved to 4-1 on the season. With freshman Albert Barber (9) serving, the Rams jumped out to an 8-2 lead in game one. “We got a little timid I believe, we had trouble exercising our potential on our side… we were slightly off tonight,” said Carpinteria coach Dino Garcia. But with Ben Medel (3) serving, the Warriors fought back to take a 13-12 lead. Both teams would exchange leads throughout the rest of the game, but a kill by Albert’s brother, junior Cullen Barber (24), put the Rams up 25-24; and when a tip over the net landed on Carpinteria’s side of the court, Cate had captured game one. Game two was even tighter, but Sebastian Richardson’s (25) dump over the net forged some separation between the two teams as the Rams took a 19-15 lead. Even so, the Warriors Jack Gay (6) brought the home team within two points of the lead at 2422. Carpinteria got within one at 24-23, but sophomore Theo Mack (30) knocked down

the final point and Cate took a 2-0 game lead. The third game was once again close as the teams deadlocked at 18-18, but junior Carson Williams’ (26) spike put the Rams ahead 1918. “Carson Williams, class of ‘19, came up big out of the middle with five blocks,” said Collins. The Rams prevailed once again as Cullen Barber’s kill would put an exclamation point on a three-game sweep. Collins gave a lot of credit to her team’s defense for the win. “The Barber brothers, Cullen, Class of ‘19 and Albert, Class of ‘21, combined, earned 33 digs toward the team’s 59 in total,” explained Collins. Theo Mack continued to be strong for the team with 19 kills and 10 digs, and junior Jojo Broussard (11) hit .400 from the right side with four of those kills coming at key moments. Richardson also recorded 11 digs. “We have been working on our serving and out-of-system plays and it really paid off in crucial moments,” said Collins. The teams will square off again when Carpinteria travels to Cate Mesa on April 26. “I think we can put up a good fight—a better fight than we did,” said Garcia. “We’ll definitely go to the drawing board, and put it together,” he added, pleased with the outside hitting of Gay and Liam Slate (7). Because of the recent rains, both teams are still trying to make up games and catch Foothill Tech who has gotten out to a 7-0 start in league. “We had a good battle against them, we were almost in a player-for-player type of game” said Collins, whose team fell to the Dragons the second game of the season, looks to be a dogfight this year in the TVL.

PreP News Carpinteria High School

Track and field

April 4 – The Carpinteria High School track and field team traveled to Fillmore for a triangular non-league meet with Fillmore and Foothill Tech. The boys finished second with 49 points and the girls finished first with 71. Shaya Alexander led the Warriors on the girls side, with victories in the long jump and triple jump. Her jump of 15 feet, four inches in the long jump was a new personal record for Alexander, and her distance of 33 feet, five inches also equaled her personal best in the triple jump. Freshman Zahea Hamadi won the 100 meters and was a part of the winning four x 100 relay team. Alejandra Cardona in the 100-meter hurdles and Chloe Singer in the high jump were among the other winners for Carpinteria. As far as the boys were concerned, Solomon Nahooikaika who is also currently playing for the school’s tennis team, won his first race in the 100m with a time of 11.85. Sophomore Victor Rinaldi won the 800m with a time of 2:06.67. “Roderick Hutchinson and Isaac De Alba both came through with clutch performances to win their field events on their last attempt, with Hutchinson winning the long jump and De Alba the shot put,” said Warriors coach Van Latham.

Boys tennis

April 4 – The Carpinteria High School boys tennis team beat Dos Pueblos in a non-league match, 14-4. In singles action, Jeremy Saito won both of his matches and dropped two games. “Carlos Costilla went 1-1, but made a good run at the end against their top player,” said Warriors coach Charles Bryant. Myles Morgan went 1-0, beating the Chargers Number-one player. In doubles, Solomon Nahooikaika/ Kirby Zapata went 2-0 as did Luke Nahooikaika/Cameron Gralewski. “We didn’t get their full varsity team, which would have been a fun match for us,” said Bryant of the Dos Pueblos squad who sent just six players to the match. April 9 – The Carpinteria High School boys tennis team defeated Laguna Blanca, the sixth-ranked team in Division IV in a non-league match, 11-7. In doubles, Solomon Nahooikaika/Kirby Zapata went 3-0 and Luke Nahooikaika/Cameron Gralewski also went 3-0. Jackson Phillips/Ian McCurry went 1-1 to finish out the Warriors’ doubles scoring. In singles, Jeremy Saito went 1-1 with his lone loss coming to Alex Furakawa (3-0), 6-4. Myles Morgan went 2-0 and Carlos Costilla went 1-1, winning his one set in a tiebreak. “I think we caught a lucky break today as they just returned from two weeks of Spring Break,” said Warriors coach Charles Bryant.

Baseball

April 5 – The Carpinteria High School baseball team fell to Malibu, 15-1. Warrior sophomore Diego Hernandez broke up a no-hit bid with two outs in the third inning, breaking through against Sharks lefty Will Tamkin. Freshman Miles Souza on the mound threw three innings for the Warriors. “Sophomore Jason Warren had a remarkable day as he started on the varsity for the first time,” said Carpinteria coach Pat Cooney. Warren figured in two double plays at first base, got his first hit and made his first appearance on the mound as a member of the varsity. He struck out the final two Shark hitters of the game with the bases loaded. “Unfortunately, there was not a great deal of mystery to this game, we simply failed to play a high level of catch,” explained Cooney. April 6 – The Carpinteria High School baseball team beat Malibu, 4-1 at John Calderwood Field. “The Warriors played solid defense behind junior lefty Chase Mayer who picked up the complete game victory on the mound to even his record at 2-2,” said Warriors coach Pat Cooney. Mayer threw 100 pitches and notched four strikeouts, giving up four singles over seven innings. Dominic Sturdivan led the Warrior attack as he collected three hits, including a double and a triple, scored twice and had two RBI. “Miles Souza had two big hits with a runner on third, and the Sharks infield drawn in, to pad the Warrior lead,” said Cooney. Noah Nuño also collected two hits and scored a run. “The battery was great, Mayer and catcher Toby Spach were really in sync, and very patient as they worked through the lineup,” added Cooney.

Softball

April 7 – The Carpinteria High School softball team swept a home doubleheader against Morro Bay, winning the first game by a score of 11-6, and then taking the second game, 8-7. In game one, Samantha Saenz singled and then scored on a triple by Amanda Blair, as the Warriors got on the board first with two runs in the second inning. Blair was able to score on a sacrifice by Raquel Cordero. After the Pirates tallied three runs in the third, Carpinteria responded in the bottom half with two more runs when Kayana Diaz hit a double, then scored on a double by Mikayla Blair. Isabel Studt hit a single to put runners at the corners, then, a walk to Saenz loaded the bases. Amanda hit a deep fly ball to left field to score her sister Mikayla from third base, putting the Warriors back on top 4-3. Carpinteria added two more runs in the fourth off a two-run homer by Studt. However, Morro Bay was able to score

a run in the fifth and two runs in the sixth to tie the game, 6-6. The Warriors tacked on five runs in the bottom the sixth with Iliana Esquivel, Jauslyn Richardson and Kaela Kelley all contributing singles to help put the game away. In game two, the Pirates scored a run in the first on two hits, but the Warriors scoreed two runs in the bottom of the first on a single by Diaz and a RBI double by Mikayla Blair—a double play bringing home the second run. Carpinteria scored one run in the third after Studt tripled and scored on a sacrifice fly by Mikayla Blair to make it 3-1. In the fourth, the Warriors scored three runs on singles by Amanda Blair, Richardson, a RBI double by Rebecca Bray and a two-run RBI double by Diaz to make it 6-1 heading into the sixth. Morro Bay was able to put together five hits and seven runs in the sixth and seventh innings to go ahead 7-6 at the bottom of the seventh. Cordero then belted a single for the game winner in the walk-off victory. “I was happy to see that our offense has continued to produce hits and runs,” said Carpinteria coach Henry Gonzales whose team improved to 7-2 overall with the doubleheader sweep. April 9 – The Carpinteria High School softball team lost 3-0 in an away Tri-Valley League game versus Grace Brethren. “This was a duel between two quality pitchers, Warrior Amanda Blair and Lancer Jessie Fontes,” said Carpinteria coach Henry Gonzales. The Warriors had a chance in the sixth to get on the board when Kayana Diaz tripled and Mikayla Blair walked then stole second base at the next batter up. Both were stranded however, as none of their teammates were able to get a hit. Blair gave up three hits and struck out seven on the afternoon. The Arizona-bound Fontes struck out 13 and gave up two hits. Carpinteria is overall 7-3 and 0-1 in League.

Diana Joyner & Morgan Roberts

NOV. 11 2017

The couple’s notes on the day:

WhereaS, marijuana establishments and activities often present health, welfare, and public safety issues for cities. Several California cities and counties have experienced adverse impacts associated with and resulting from marijuana dispensaries, delivery services, and cultivation sites. According to these communities and according to news stories widely reported, marijuana land uses have resulted in and/or caused an increase in crime, including burglaries, robberies, violence, and illegal sales and use of marijuana in the areas immediately surrounding such marijuana activities. Carpinteria residents have complained about odors emanating from large-scale growing operations in the vicinity of the City. Marijuana cultivation sites have been associated with illegal construction, unsafe electrical wiring, excessive water use, and fire hazards; and

Is there a moment from your wedding that stands out from all the others in your memory? Describe it and explain why it meant so much to you. Diana: Hearing the music come on and knowing it was my turn to walk down the aisle with my dad. I had tunnel vision and was only looking at Morgan. In the middle of our ceremony we were able to pause, turn and lock eyes with all of our family and friends and thank them for being there to celebrate with us. This was incredibly special and humbling knowing everyone was there for us and there to support our next step as husband and wife. Morgan: The weather was absolutely perfect as I was standing under the arbor. Hearing the music come on and seeing Diana for the first time as she was coming down the aisle is a memory that stands out from the rest. It was surreal and better than I could have ever imagined. It signified the realness of what was to come, the beginning of our journey as husband and wife.

Did your wedding include special details that reflected your individual personalities? Diana: Both Morgan and I love to be outdoors (especially at the beach or hiking) and travel and love our dogs. We are also obsessed with sunsets. One of our favorite places to go is Hawaii. We incorporated these things by placing pictures of our travels at the guest sign in table, used a Hawaiian/beachy theme throughout our wedding (can be seen in the bouquets, men’s leis, table settings and arbor), and picked green as our color to represent our love for nature. We also had my 12-year-old black lab, Pongo, as our ring bearer. What was most stressful leading up to the wedding? How did you cope with that stress? Diana: Finding a dress! I am already an indecisive person as it, but I was in the middle of studying for my Physical Therapy Board Exam and finding a dress was not a priority. Finally I found one less than two months from our wedding day. Did you have to put out fires during the event? Looking back, could those have been prevented? Diana: No! Everything was so smooth and fell into place perfectly. Our day-of coordinator did an amazing job!

What part of the meal did people enjoy most? Was there anything on the menu that you would skip if you had a redo? Diana: DJ’s California Catering killed it! The entire meal was amazing. Their bartenders did a fantastic job preparing our requested signature cocktails and serving at our open bar. They were also the set-up and clean-up crew and were so professional. Everyone commented on how great the service was. And it was so cool to hear the staff say that this was one of the best groups of people they’ve been able to serve and that there was such a great vibe; they could really feel the love and connection between everyone. Weddings can end up feeling like they’re for the guests instead of the bride and groom. What did you do to ensure that the day was wonderful for you? Diana: For starters we planned the entire wedding ourselves. The venue, food, florals, décor, etc. were all things that we loved and felt represented us. Secondly, we told each other to stop every so often to make sure we were present in the moment and take everything in.

WhereaS, it is imperative that the City maintain local control over all marijuana land uses to the fullest extent allowed by law. The City anticipates that Proposition 64 may encourage the establishment of various marijuana businesses within the City. The Municipal Code does not currently address commercial marijuana activities. While no one may conduct such activities in the City without a state license, express Municipal Code regulations regarding marijuana cultivation facilities, manufacturing sites, transporters, distributors, testing laboratories, and other business activities are necessary to provide clear guidelines regarding the scope of prohibited conduct and minimize the potential for confusion regarding the City’s policies; and WhereaS, the adoption of an ordinance that addresses commercial marijuana activities will take time and careful consideration and will require input from various community stakeholders and the general public. Until that process is complete, an interim urgency ordinance under Government Code section 65858(a) is necessary to protect the public health, safety, and welfare; and

What did your guests say was their favorite facet of the event? Diana: The ceremony, hands down. Almost everyone said it was one of the best ceremonies they’ve ever attended and that our friend Danny did an amazing job officiating and capturing who we are as individuals, as well as the love and connection between us. They also said it was perfect weather and a beautiful venue which really helped set the mood for the entire day.

WhereaS, under Proposition 64, individuals may possess and use specified amounts of marijuana and may cultivate up to six marijuana plants per private residence for personal use. Under Health and Safety Code section 11362.2(b), cities may prohibit private outdoor marijuana cultivation, but may not prohibit completely private indoor cultivation of six marijuana plants or less. Cities, however, may reasonably regulate private indoor cultivation of six marijuana plants or less; and

Saturday, April 14

What is your top piece of advice for couples planning a wedding? Diana: Take your time, there is no rush and start talking to your family and friends who have already planned a wedding! I had plenty of time to plan (a year), and that’s probably why I didn’t feel stressed. And my friends and family were a great help. Start by prioritizing (venue, food, photography, etc) what is most important to have at your wedding; this will immensely help you to stay within your budget, as well as focus on what will make the day perfect for you. Get a day-of coordinator so you can actually enjoy your special day! I enjoyed planning all the details leading up to the wedding; however, if this is something that is stressful for you, hire a coordinator to do all the planning as well.

WhereaS, pursuant to its police powers, the City has authority to regulate and prohibit medical marijuana activities, including the establishment of cooperatives and collectives (City of Riverside v Inland Empire Patients Health & Wellness Ctr., Inc. (2013) 56 Cal.4th 729); and

WhereaS, Proposition 64 legalizes and regulates nonmedical marijuana in California and requires nonmedical marijuana businesses, including cultivators, manufacturers, distributors, retailers, and testing laboratories, to obtain a state license in order to operate lawfully. The state will not issue licenses if the proposed nonmedical marijuana business violates a local ordinance. The state began issuing licenses for nonmedical marijuana businesses on January 1, 2018; and

Why did you choose your ceremony and reception venues? Did they work well with your vision? Diana: We have both ran, hiked and taken our dogs to Elings Park for the last 10 years and felt that this was a perfect place to represent us both as a couple and as individuals and our love for Santa Barbara County (where we met). Not only that, it has amazing views of both the ocean and mountains, our two favorite things, and a place we could watch the sunset!

WhereaS, pursuant to the City of Carpinteria’s (“City”) police power, as granted under Article XI, section 7 of the California Constitution, the City Council of the City (“City Council”) has the authority to enact and enforce ordinances and regulations for public health, safety and welfare; and

Burn treatment centers at two hospitals in Northern California reported in 2015 that nearly 10 percent of severe burn cases were attributed to butane hash oil explosions, which was more than burn cases from car accidents and house fires combined; and WhereaS, in 2015, there were at least five marijuana-related wildfires in California linked to marijuana growing operations; and

WhereaS, it is reasonable to conclude that commercial marijuana activities could cause similar adverse impacts on the public health, safety, and welfare in Carpinteria, and residents have already complained about negative impacts related to odors; and WhereaS, it may be necessary to adopt regulations on commercial marijuana activities to protect the public against potential negative health, safety, and welfare impacts, and this moratorium is necessary to ensure the orderly and effective implementation of any regulations the Council may adopt; and WhereaS, a temporary moratorium will permit City staff to undertake an investigation of these matters and recommend a course of action to the City Council; and WhereaS, California Government Code section 65858 provides that for the purpose of protecting the public safety, health and welfare and without following the procedures otherwise required prior to adoption of a zoning ordinance, the City Council may adopt, as an urgency measure, an urgency ordinance prohibiting any uses which may be in conflict with “a contemplated general plan, specific plan, or zoning proposal that the legislative body, planning commission or the planning department is considering or studying or intends to study within a reasonable time”; and need TO eXTend ThiS MOraTOriUM: WhereaS, on May 8, 2017 the City Council determined by unanimous vote to enact Ordinance No. 715 pursuant to the requirements of Government Code section 65858 establishing a moratorium on commercial marijuana activities for a period of forty-five (45) days; and WhereaS, the provisions of Government Code section 65858 provide that the City Council may extend an interim ordinance for a period of ten (10) months and fifteen (15) days upon notice pursuant to Government Code section 65090 and a public hearing at which the City Council adopts the extension by at least a fourfifths (4/5) vote; and WhereaS, on June 12, 2017 the City Council determined to enact Ordinance No. 716 pursuant to the requirements of Government Code section 65858 extending the interim ordinance on commercial marijuana activities established by Ordinance No. 715 for a period of ten (10) months and fifteen (15) days; and WhereaS, the provisions of Government Code section 65858 provide that the City may subsequently extend the interim ordinance for an additional one (1) year (cumulative extensions to interim ordinance not to exceed twenty-two (22) months and fifteen (15) days) upon notice pursuant to Government Code section 65090 and a public hearing at which the City Council adopts the extension by at least a four-fifths (4/5) vote; and WhereaS, pursuant to the requirements of Government Code section 65858, a notice of public hearing about the proposed extension of this Ordinance, originally enacted on May 8, 2017, and extended for ten (10) months and fifteen (15) days on June 12, 2017, has been placed in a newspaper of general circulation within the City in compliance with section 65090; and WhereaS, at its April 9, 2018 meeting the City Council issued a written report describing measures taken to alleviate the conditions which led to the adoption of this Ordinance as required by subsection (d) of section 65858; and WhereaS, since the June 12, 2017 initial ordinance extension, and as outlined in the report, staff has continued researching possible cannabis regulations and issues related to commercial cannabis activities. Recent work efforts include researching evolving State and Federal law concerning commercial cannabis activities, actively participating in the County of Santa Barbara’s cannabis ordinance development process, meeting with the City Council on two occasions, December 11, 2017 and January 22, 2018 to discuss the possible scope and content of City commercial cannabis regulations, conducting public outreach in the form of a web survey made available to the general public to gauge community input of possible regulations, and researching how other local jurisdictions are choosing to regulate commercial cannabis activities. Based on the work completed, additional time is necessary to complete a draft commercial cannabis ordinance for the Council’s consideration and adoption; and WhereaS, pursuant to the requirements of Government Code section 65858 the City Council has determined, by at least a four-fifths (4/5) vote, to extend this Ordinance for the immediate preservation and protection of the public health, safety and welfare of the community. nOW, ThereFOre, The ciTY cOUncil hereBY OrdainS aS FOllOWS: SecTiOn 1. recitals incorporated.

The City Council hereby declares that it would have passed and adopted this Ordinance, and each and all provisions hereof, irrespective of the fact that one or more provisions may be declared invalid. SECTION 10: CEQA Exemption. The City Council finds that this Ordinance is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, sections: 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment); 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in section 15378); and 15061(b) (3) (the activity is covered by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment). The proposed interim ordinance extension maintains the status quo and prevents changes in the environment pending the completion of study and any amendment to the municipal code deemed necessary. Because there is no possibility that this Ordinance may have a significant adverse effect on the environment, the adoption of this Ordinance is exempt from CEQA. Passed, Approved, and Adopted this 9th day of April, 2018, by the following called vote: AYES: Councilmembers: CARTY, CLARK, NOMURA, STEIN, SHAW NOES: Councilmembers: NONE ABSENT: Councilmember: NONE /s/ Fred Shaw, Mayor, City of Carpinteria ATTEST: /s/ Fidela Garcia, City Clerk, City of Carpinteria I hereby certify that the foregoing Ordinance was duly and regularly introduced and adopted at a regular meeting of the City Council of the City of Carpinteria held this 9th day of April, 2018. /s/ Fidela Garcia City Clerk, City of Carpinteria APPROVED AS TO FORM /s/ Dylan K.

Polls are open for WaterWise high school video contest

Voting is underway for the 19th Annual WaterWise high School Video Contest “People’s Choice Award” administered by the Santa barbara County Water Agency. Students from nine different schools across the county submitted videos for this year’s contest, including Carpinteria high School and Cate School. Winning teams will receive cash prizes up to $1,000. This year’s contest focused on the theme, “Water use myths at home and in the Garden,” and challenged students to create videos that can serve as public service announcements to promote water use efficiency and local water conservation programs. County Water Agency manager Fray Crease said, “We always look forward to seeing the imaginative ways students depict the value of water conservation.” From Carpinteria high School, Kara Chatterton submitted her WaterWise video “Let this be the Year for Change” and Jeanette Fantone submitted “Facts First.” Kyril van Schendel and diarra Pouye from the Cate School submitted their video “You Can make a difference.” The Network of Santa barbara County Water Providers and the Santa barbara County Water Agency fund the annual contest. Together, these agencies sponsor programs that promote water awareness and efficiency. All 16 of the 30-second videos can be viewed at Facebook.com/WWSbhighSchoolVideoContest.submitted. To vote, “like” the video on Facebook before Friday, April 20.

The howard School will hold its Aloha Auction on Saturday, April 21, from 3 to 7 p.m. Tickets are $35 and many hawaiian-themed items will be available. Confronted with funding setbacks that many in the region are facing from the Thomas Fire and debris flow, the school is reaching out to its alumni and other potential donors for support in its continued mission of providing “a meaningful education to students,” as headmaster Joel Reed wrote, “in an environment that respects the individuality of each child, and one that focuses on the learning process itself rather than concentrating on rote standardized information.” For more information call 745-8448.

Field trips

CVN

THE TIMES THAT BIND L I S A O ’ R E I L LY Have you ever visited the old homestead of your ancestors? Stood on the land of the farm they owned? Visited the factory where they worked, or walked down the streets where they lived? It is a moving experience, and I encourage you all to take these field trips. Last year, I went to the Music Center in downtown Los Angeles for an afternoon at the opera. The Music Center sits at the top end of Grand Park, a beautiful promenade of grass, trees and fountains gently cascading down the three blocks to City Hall. I stood at the top and beheld that scene, mesmerized not by what men had created in the concrete jungle, but by what I saw in my mind’s eye. I envisioned what was missing—the construction made by a particular man. I have written before about my greatgrandfather, Michael Lombardi, who had arrived in 1893 from Italy with his mother when he was nine years old. He grew up, married and began his business career in Colorado. We are fortunate that Grampa Mike wrote “A Rambling Episode of My Life” in 1969, chronicling the events of his life, and from it we learned how he ended up in Los Angeles. After several business ventures in Colorado and Utah, he wrote, “I went in business in Nevada with a man by the name of Pasquale Masciotra, a miner that I had met in Bingham Canyon. We bought out a wholesale and retail liquor dealer in Tacoma and did a thriving business for a couple of years. When prohibition was adopted in 1918, I moved to Los Angeles with my wife and three boys, and Pasquale went back to Italy.” He had some money in his pockets when he arrived in Los Angeles, and wasted no time in starting new business ventures. He took out a lease on a parking garage that was successful, but looking ahead to when the lease would run out

Nowadays a tall tree stands where the Law Building would have stood on N. Broadway in L.A. in the 1930s and 1940s. he realized, “I would have nothing after that period, and decided to trade my equity in the lease for something tangible. The lot on broadway was offered to me in exchange for my lease. The lot was used as an auto park where I charged 20 cents for the first hour and 5 cents an hour after that. I believe this was the beginning of hourly parking in L.A.” As my father recently recounted, “Grampa had the vision of needing a downtown structure in L.A. and borrowed money in 1924 to build the Law Building at First and Broadway where the parking lot was.” Lucky for Grampa Mike, at about the same time, just one block away, the new City Hall was commissioned to be built. from its first opening until about 1950, the entire twelve-story Law Building was leased by the county. After the last lease expired, Grampa Mike continued leasing the offices to legal and realty professionals until the early 1960s. By then, the city of Los Angeles was in the midst of enacting a decades-old plan for the Civic Center Mall. When my great-grandfather built the Law Building, he knew it would one day come down for the sake of progress, but he thought those cogs would be slow to turn. first, mountains had to move, or, at least a high knoll known as Bunker Hill, the tallest peak in downtown, and once home to wealthy

residents. As seen in the photograph, the Law building sat at the base of this hill. The tracks on the right belonged to the incline-railway Court Flight, which until the early 1940’s eased the commute to residences and parking lots on top of the hill. In the mid 1950’s, bunker Hill was flattened, and city leaders began in earnest to acquire and remove the buildings that did not fit the plan. The city finalized a deal to condemn the Law Building under public domain, and eventually, down it came. Civic Center Mall is now part of Grand Park, bookended by the Music Center and City Hall. So, what is found in these field trips? I visited a place that no longer exists, but in reading and listening to the stories

from my father and great-grandfather, in researching in greater detail the events that unfolded, I not only was able to reconstruct the Law Building where it no longer stands, I also found its place in history.

This week, the Marine Mammal Center observed and recorded a young elephant seal resting on the beach west of the pier. It’s possible that the elephant seal originated in the San Simeon rookery, and was in the process of molting. elephant seals have no external ears and reduced limbs. This yearling was just developing a proboscis, which resembles an elephant’s trunk. They are colossal in comparison to other pinnipeds. elephant seal bulls typically reach a length of 16 feet and weigh 6,600 pounds, and are much larger than adult female cows. When elephant seals are born, they can weigh up to 80 pounds and reach lengths of up to 4 feet. Their hair and outer layers of skin molt in large patches. The skin has to be regrown by blood vessels reaching through the blubber. When molting occurs, the seal is susceptible to the cold, and must rest on land in a safe place called a “haul out.” northern males and young adults haul out during June and July to molt. northern females and immature seals molt during April and May.

More Info

Harbor seals rest on land about 50 percent of the time, but since they are defenseless on land they flee readily at perceived threats. There are only four rookeries on the Southern California mainland coast. A primary goal of Carpinteria Sealwatchers is to try to protect the small population of harbor seals by minimizing disturbances.

Katie Leonesio, owner of Carpinteria and Linden Pub, along with local Robert Chagolla, and Courtney Frazer behind the lens, brought a copy of the Coastal View News on a recent trip to Sayulita, in Nayarit, Mexico, where Leonesio lived for a number of years. In addition to soaking in the local culture, the trio zip-lined in the surrounding jungle and visited Punta Mita nearby, where Leonesio also once lived. The travelers enjoyed amazing shrimp and lobster at the popular local restaurant, Roccio’s.

Freeway Project Continues to Make Significant Progress

Construction continues on the new overcrossing to Casitas Pass Road, Via Real, the northbound freeway off-ramp at Casitas Pass Road, and local intersection connections. As it relates to the Casitas Pass bridge, traffic has been shifted to the new overcrossing which allows for construction of the next section of the freeway overcrossing. Additionally, construction continues on the Linden Avenue overcrossing and on the retaining wall on the ocean-side of Linden Avenue. Regarding the Via Real connection, work efforts are being accelerated to allow pedestrians and bicyclists to use the new sidewalks and multi-purpose paths. Via Real provides a new crossing over Carpinteria Creek and a connection to Casitas Pass Road. On-going construction of several elements of the project such as the early removal of the southbound Highway 101 bridge over Carpinteria Creek and the opening of the new portion of the Casitas Pass Road freeway overcrossing also allows for better pedestrian and bicycle access through the area.

Carpinteria Avenue Bridge Replacement Project

City Public Works staff continues to oversee various work efforts related to the Carpinteria Avenue Bridge Replacement Project. Currently, construction plans, specifications and an engineer’s cost estimate are being finalized. The plans and specifications will be used as the basis for contractor’s bids and the estimate is used for City budgeting purposes. Additionally, Public Works staff is working with property owners to obtain temporary construction easements as construction to the bridge requires access to and work to be completed on adjacent private property. To fund this project, Public Works obtained a federal grant that will pay approximately 88% of the all eligible costs. Additional funding will come from City’s Development Impact Fee program and Measure A revenues. For additional information visit http://www.carpinteria.ca.us/, under What’s New, Carpinteria Avenue Bridge Replacement.
