Fairgrounds CEO Fennell retires

By Jordan P. Ingram

DEL MAR — In the midst of a financial crisis that has pushed the Del Mar Fairgrounds onto the verge of collapse, the 22nd District Agricultural Association on Aug. 25 announced the retirement of longtime fairgrounds’ CEO and General Manager Tim Fennell.

Fennell was first named CEO of the stateowned property in 1993, serving for 27 years.

“On behalf of the entire board, I would like to recognize Tim for the three decades he has dedicated to the Fairgrounds,” Board President Richard Valdez said in a statement. “We wish him all the very best as he embarks on his much-deserved retirement.”

The 22nd DAA’s Board of Directors named Carlene Moore as Interim CEO to replace Fennell.

Moore, who first joined the fairgrounds as deputy general manager in 2019, will assume all operational responsibility immediately, according to a media release.

Most recently, Moore served as CEO of the Napa County Fair Association, a nonprofit organization in Calistoga, Calif.

“I appreciate the opportunity to provide leadership to the Del Mar Fairgrounds and while we have some challenging times ahead of us, the board and our leadership team are dedicated to the survival and recovery of the Fairgrounds,” Moore TURN TO FENNELL ON A9

Student enrollment declines amid distance learning

By Catherine Allen

REGION — Early data from two school districts show enrollment dropped as distance learning began.

Some families are opting in for homeschooling and other alternatives instead.

San Marcos Unified and Encinitas Union Elementary School Districts started the 2020-21 year with slumps in enrollment, compared to the same day last year. Previously, both relatively consistent enrollment since 2015, according to Ed-Data.

Disenrollment appears more common among younger students, as Encinitas Union’s 11% drop illustrates. This decrease stems directly from COVID-19, Assistant Superintendent Joe Dougherty said.

For San Marcos Unified, 33% of disenrollment in elementary came from Graphic by Dan Brendel the transitional kinder-

garten and kindergarten levels, according to Assistant Superintendent Mark Schiel.

Total enrollment in San Marcos dropped 5% year on year, comparing the district’s data from day three of each school year. Broken down by grade level, the district saw its largest decrease in middle school, which lost 9% enrollment compared to 2019. Elementary enrollment dipped 7%, while high school enrollment gained 1%. “[San Marcos Unified] takes pride in the education that we provide,” Schiel said. “We believe that our enrollment will return to normal when we are able to return to in-person instruction.”

Between the third and fifth day of the school year, San Marcos Unified added 71 elementary students TURN TO ENROLLMENT ON A9

Farmers Market To Feature Fabulous FOOD After a nearly two-month shut down due to the health pandemic, the Carlsbad Village Association (CVA) was extremely grateful to be able to reopen the State Street Farmers’ Market in May. Since then, it has grown steadily, safely, and responsibly and is now hosting 48 vendors. Just this week the market brought back two of its six hot food vendors for “food to go.” It has been a process, but CVA is proud to be going strong and thankful for its loyal supporters.

Did you know that quite a few current vendors and many over its 26-year history are Carlsbad businesses? Take for example Valdivia Farms who produces the most delicious heirloom tomatoes ever grown. Or the Carlsbad Cookie Company that serves up homemade shortbread cookies of every flavor imaginable. Or Al’s Fudge, made right here in Carlsbad Village. Bitchin’ Sauce, now available nationwide, started right here in Carlsbad and was a market favorite for years.

While still maintaining social distancing guidelines, the State Street Farmers’ Market is bringing back hot food, custom prepared but made “to go.” Two hot food vendors will be able to join us each week to begin with. Rotating vendors each week (check www.carlsbad-village.com for current vendors) CVA’s goal is to keep the wonderful flavors of Masala Cottage, Thai Style, Full Belly Barbeque, Rafikiz Foodz, and others, available for everyone’s enjoyment until the time we can have all vendors back at once. Thank you for regularly supporting our farmers and artisan vendors!

Supervisors approve $6.5B county budget

By City News Service

REGION — After hours of public input and deliberation, the San Diego County Board of Supervisors on Aug. 25 unanimously approved a $6.5 billion operating budget for the 2020-21 fiscal year.

Previously $6.4 billion, the revised budget reflects an additional $83.2 million in recent funding requests, including $24 million for rental assistance, millions of dollars in road projects and an office dedicated to racial equality.

Tuesday’s vote, held via teleconference, follows two public hearings earlier in August, when board members heard funding requests from residents.

Normally held in late June, the budget approval process was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Supervisors thanked Chief Administrative Officer Helen-Robbins Meyer and her staff for crafting a budget during an especially challenging time.

“Putting together a budget is a big job,” said board Chairman Greg Cox. According to a summary provided by Robbins-Meyer’s office, the county is spending $2.5 billion on health & human services, $2 billion for public safety, $776 million on finance and general government, $632 million on land use and environment, $409 million on various items and $125 million on capital improvements.

“I think we can be proud that we have a good, solid and well-balanced budget,” Supervisor Dianne Jacob said.

Supervisor Jim Desmond credited staff members for “for fighting to do the right thing. This is not easy.”

Supervisor Kristin Gaspar said while the coronavirus pandemic has caused great economic hardship, using the general fund to pay for every request could result in a major shortfall for county finances.

Gaspar said she supported using funds from the federal coronavirus relief bill to pay for rental assistance.

During the public hearing, dozens of callers made a final pitch for more county funding.

Some demanded the county defund law enforcement and provide even more money for behavioral health services.

Others criticized supervisors’ funding requests, including $10 million for three traffic roundabouts in Desmond's district.

Desmond said that years ago, the county approved the roundabouts in Rancho Santa Fe. The roundabouts are needed to deal with major traffic, Desmond said.

“If we don’t build this now, we’ll pay more later,’’ Desmond said.

Carlsbad amends rates for short-term rentals

By Steve Puterski

CARLSBAD — Shortterm rentals are on track for a rate increase after the City Council approved an ordinance to amend the Carlsbad Tourism Business Improvement District rate structure.

During its Aug. 25 meeting, the council approved moving forward with a recommendation from the CTBID advisory board to increase its rate from $1 per night to 2% of gross short-term room rentals.

Gina Reed, a project manager with Civitas and hired by advisory board, said her firm is assisting with modification of process with formation and re-

newal of business districts.

The increase would start Nov. 1 with an estimated budget increase of $1.2 million, although those monies will be lower due to the pandemic. Some funds will allow for marketing recovery efforts.

“This gives time for hoteliers to update their systems to incorporate the rate increase,” Reed said.

Under normal circumstances, though, the rate increase would be about $3.5 million, according to the staff report. Reed said there are about 270 shortterm rental businesses in the city.

The CTBID, though, generates funds for marketing and visitor pro-

grams to promote the city of Carlsbad as a tourism destination and to fund projects, programs and activities to benefit hotels within the district’s boundaries.

The board makes recommendations on expenditures for the district’s programs and activities, the district’s annual budget and provides end-of-year financial reports. Still, the CTBID board riled up several hotel and short-term vacation rental owners.

Five protest letters from short-term vacation rental owners were submitted to the council railing against the 2% increase.

Thomas Hensley, management agent for The

Helm Management Co., said the Tamarack Beach Resort Hotel and the Tamarack Beach Resort Vacation Owners Association both are against the 2% increase. He said with lower incomes and an uncertain future, both the hotel and VOA board do not believe this is the proper time for the increase.

Also, Kenneth and Mary Jo Voertman, who own the Tamarack Beach Hotel, called the increase “outrageous.”

“To most of the affected properties, it would be a 400% increase or more and that is an outrageous increase,” they said. “If this increased money is truly needed, look to all the

Airbnb-type rentals that take away from the very properties you are supposed to be helping. They get benefits from the CTBID tax without supporting their share.”

John and Lorna Hoopes, who own a STVR within the coastal zone, said while they are not opposed to a rate increase, they are opposed to it during the pandemic.

“We feel with the general decline of the economy, now is not the time to impose additional assessments,” their protest letter to the council read. “At such time as the economy recovers, we would be willing to reconsider and revisit the issue.”

Oceanside businesses need license to sell tobacco products

By Samantha Nelson

OCEANSIDE — Businesses that sell tobacco products in town will now have to obtain a specific license to continue doing so.

On Aug. 19, City Council approved an amendment to City Code requiring businesses that sell tobacco products to obtain a Tobacco Retailer License (TRL).

State law provides penalties for underage tobacco sales but does not provide a process to prevent future underage sales nor funding for enforcement.

Some municipalities around the state, including Vista and El Cajon, have implemented TRLs that require background checks of applicants and provide a way to suspend or revoke the license if violations reoccur.

In 2016, the state raised the age to buy tobacco products from 18 to 21. Still, underage persons were still able to buy tobacco 19% of the time statewide.

These sales happened at tobacco and vape shops, convenience stores, liquor

TOBACCO PRODUCTS include vaping devices, vaping liquids and single-use electronic cigarettes in addition to traditional dry tobacco products like cigarettes. File photo

stores and supermarkets.

Tobacco products include vaping devices, vaping liquids and single-use electronic cigarettes in addition to traditional dry tobacco products like cigarettes.

Approximately one out of eight California high school students currently uses a tobacco product, and 84.3% of California high school students who use tobacco products use an electronic smoking device.

According to data provided by the Vista Community Clinic, the city of Vista was able to drop its underage purchases of tobacco products from 39% to 1% after implementing a TLR. In Oceanside, underage purchases occur 24% of the time.

There are approximately 100 businesses in Oceanside that sell tobacco products.

Escondido extends business recovery plan

By Tigist Layne

ESCONDIDO — The Escondido City Council approved an urgency ordinance at their Aug. 19 meeting to extend and modify the city’s COVID-19 Emergency Business Recovery Strategy that was initially adopted in May. The original Business Recovery Strategy, which was set to lapse Aug. 20, implemented temporary regulatory and non-regulatory measures such as permit extensions, off-site sale and delivery of alcohol and temporary signage relief to assist local businesses that had to alter their operations due to COVID-19 regulations.

Most recently, the city reduced the travel lanes on Grand Avenue between Maple and Juniper streets to allow restaurants to create temporary outdoor dining locations.

The new urgency ordinance extends the plan for another 90 days and adds

modifications to several of the regulations.

One of the most notable modifications broadens the types of outdoor activities allowed to include other professional, recreation, or instructional services and/ or assembly.

Mike Strong, the city’s director of community development, explained during the council meeting that the updated ordinance exempts any type of assembly, like church services for example, from any use permit requirements.

“The goal of this would be to not require any permitting and allow church facilities to have assemblies and church services in their parking lots without any city interference,” Strong said. “Part of what city staff will do … is to proactively reach out to those establishments to let them know their rights or what they can do on their property.”

Another modification allows businesses to expand

into existing indoor areas such as an adjacent vacant shop to accommodate physical distancing without increasing the overall capacity or occupancy of the operation.

At the meeting, the City Council also decided to cancel the election for city treasurer and to appoint incumbent City Treasurer Douglas W. Shultz to the office, since he was the only one who filed to run for the position.

The move will save the city roughly $75,000, according to city staff.

Lastly, councilmembers approved hiring consultant Teri Black and Company for $27,000 to recruit candidates for the city manager position.

Escondido City Manager Jeffrey Epp officially retired on July 11 after 35 years of serving Escondido’s city government, but he is staying on temporarily to help the city transition to a new city manager.

forcement Division Manager Kirk Mundt, a TRL could be denied based on the criminal background of the applicant and could also be suspended or revoked for underage sale violations.

The license allows the suspension of the TRL

without the revocation of a regular business license.

“We don’t want to close down the whole grocery store if they sell tobacco to a minor, but this tobacco license could be suspended or revoked for those violations,” Mundt told City Council.

Mundt said the fee for the license will be around $300, which would provide funds for license administration, enhanced enforcement, including undercover buy operations, and regular inspections.

Deputy Mayor Jack Feller asked if the TRL would have any relation to cannabis vaping products.

City Attorney John Mullen clarified that a business with a TRL could not sell cannabis products, and noted that there aren’t currently any storefront cannabis businesses within the city, therefore the TRL would not apply to cannabis vaping products.

Blackout blackmail behind mid-August power outages?

Letters to the Editor

North River Farms is NOT a farm

T

o The Coast News, How about the next time you write an article about NRF Fake Farm you print the real map instead of the pretty propaganda pictures from Integral/NRF housing development.

IT is NOT a farm. It’s a 585-unit housing development.

Plenty of people in O’side can talk about how harmful this project is: myself, Diane Nygaard, Jason Mraz, etc. Perhaps you could review the arguments on the Measure for some more meaningful background by seeing who is signing them?

A pretty damn stellar cast of real people who care about the land.

This is one of the most important issues facing Oceanside: Should we continue to let politicians change the rules to destroy agriculture land or not?

You may be interested to know the State has passed

legislation that states the policy is to AVOID agricultural land for housing with the exception of farm worker housing. The developer fails to mention that.

In these trying times of COVID we should be protecting that land, not destroying it for luxury housing that few Oceansiders can afford.

California’s Senate Bill 330 states: “The Legislature also recognizes that premature and unnecessary development of agricultural lands for urban uses continues to have adverse effects on the availability of those lands for food and fiber production and on the economy of the state.

“Furthermore, it is the policy of the state that development should be guided away from prime agricultural lands; therefore, in implementing this section, local jurisdictions should encourage, to the maximum extent practicable, in filling exist-

ing urban areas.”

The developer Integral also didn’t tell the truth on their ballot arguments.

They used acreages that are simply made-up numbers. if they can't get that right, how can we trust anything else they say?

Approval of this project would allow the camel's nose in the tent putting all 3,350 acres of Morro Hills at risk. Have you been out to the area to see the rural, magnificent nature of these lands? The rolling, rich, fertile hills are magnificent and irreplaceable.

Oceanside cannot let politicians change the rules to suit their developer donors.

I, along with farmers, educators, veterans and others recommend a hearty NO on L. For more info see: http://www.letoceansidevote.org Nadine Scott Oceanside

Spike in drug overdoses fuels epidemic

By Nickolaus Hayes

A report released by The American Medical Association’s Opioid Task Force showed there had been a dramatic increase in fatalities involving drugs like methamphetamine, heroin, cocaine, and illicit opioids.

However, the report points out that opioid prescribing decreased for the sixth year in a row between 2013 and 2019. Overall, the number of opioid prescriptions decreased by more than 90 million, which was a 37.1% decrease nationally.

The decline in drug-related overdose deaths in 2018 is partially due to this.

However, more drug users are now dying from illicitly produced drugs.

Between 2015 and 2019, deaths involving illicitly manufactured fentanyl and its analogs increased from 5,766 to 36,509. Similar

increases were seen with methamphetamine, cocaine, and heroin.

A preliminary report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention showed over 72,000 drug-related overdose deaths in 2019. By the end of 2020, this number is expected to increase, largely due to the pandemic and existing trend from 2019.

Currently, health professionals are predicting the number of drug overdoses will continue to rise unless more is done to help the more than 2 million Americans with an untreated substance use disorder.

According to Drug Rehab Services, between 2008 and 2018, the number of treatment facilities in the nation was stable. However, roughly 8%-15% of treatment facilities from year to year closed and were no longer providing services.

During the height of the lockdowns, many treatment centers had to close their doors or reduce services.

It is not known how many will be fully operational by the end of the year.

However, according to a report from the Addiction Policy Forum, more than one in three or 34% of respondents reported changes or disruptions in accessing treatment during the pandemic.

The lockdowns and everything associated with the pandemic has been devastating for every American.

Still, treatment providers must be aware the indicators are there regarding an upward trend with the number of drug-related overdose deaths involving multiple illicitly manufactured drugs.

Nickolaus Hayes is a health care professional in the field of substance abuse and addiction recovery.

ever before in California’s long experience with power blackouts have systematic, preplanned outages been as short as the 20-minute to 30-minute electric shutdowns inflicted on about 3 million homes and businesses around the state in mid-August.

Without doubt these blackouts were preplanned. “(We will have) excessive weather conditions and a persistent shortage of electric supply for the California grid,” said a warning texted to electric customers hours ahead of the first outages.

There was a lot odd about this, aside from the short span of the blackouts.

Gov. Gavin Newsom said later he didn’t learn of the shutdowns until just beforehand, adding they were caused by record-level heat. It’s unprecedented for any governor not to know well in advance. What’s more, while temperatures set records in some places, it wasn’t by much — a degree or two more than in the late summers of recent years.

And, as was noted on social media, myriad California homes feature solar panels; schools and most power-using businesses were closed due to the coronavirus pandemic. So why any shortage? Trying to blame this on the gradual shift to renewable power from wind and sun, as President Trump did, explained nothing.

What really went on?

It’s hard to be certain, in part because neither the Southern California Edison Co. nor the California Independent System Operator (CalISO), which runs the state’s electric grid, answered specific questions about how close to capacity several power plants operated during the shortages.

california focus thomas d. elias “This all looks highly suspicious,” said Bill Powers, a San Diego engineer expert on utility operations.

The real cause of the problems that inconvenienced some customers, but never enough to produce much lawsuit liability, may have been a recent utility phenomenon known as “blackout blackmail.”

The Southern California Gas Co. used this tactic several times in the last few years to keep its Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility open in the hills above the Porter Ranch area of Los Angeles’ San Fernando Valley.

It needs the gas storage, SoCalGas claimed, to prevent blackouts in summer, when gas-fired power plants are sometimes at full strength. But most plants almost never approach capacity, and there were no actual blackouts while Aliso Canyon was virtually empty after its massive leaks starting in 2015.

So this was clearly blackmail, the nation’s biggest gas utility trying to scare customers and politicians into letting it keep a hazardous facility open.

The timing of the latest blackouts suggests a different sort of possible blackmail.

These outages began less than three weeks before the state Water Resources Control Board is due in early September to consider keeping open most of the generating units at four gas-fired power plants cooled by Pacific Ocean water at Huntington Beach, Long Beach, Re-

dondo Beach and Ormond Beach near Oxnard.

All had been set to close by year’s end, reducing greenhouse gases as part of California’s climate change strategy. But the state Public Utilities Commission earlier this year okayed a reprieve, moving plant closing dates back by anywhere from one to three years.

Together, affected units at the four facilities can produce 3,812 megawatts, far more than enough to make up the stated shortfall of less than 1,500 megawatts cited by CalISO during the blackouts. One megawatt powers one home for about 15 months.

No one will say whether the four plants operated near capacity on the blackout days. They usually run far below those levels: In 2018, the highest average load on any unit of the four plants was 10.1% of capacity at Alamitos Unit 3 in Long Beach.

Edison, CalISO and the plants’ owners, Virginia-based AES Corp. and Houston-based GenOn Energy Holdings, want the generating stations left open. The PUC said OK, as it usually does when utilities want something.

Because no one can or will say whether these plants operated near capacity before and during the latest outages, it’s impossible to be sure this episode aimed to intimidate the water quality board, which has the final say.

That’s why it’s a good thing Newsom quickly ordered an investigation, and why that investigation — unlike several others involving the PUC — must actually go forward rather than dying out quietly.

Judge rules in favor of referendum proponents

By Samantha Nelson

OCEANSIDE — A San Diego judge has ruled that the proponents of a referendum petition against the North River Farms development project did not commit fraud and forgery in their signature gathering efforts.

In January, a lawsuit was filed alleging the people who collected signatures for a referendum petition committed fraud, forgery and misrepresentation in the process. The lawsuit also alleged important information was withheld from signers and that illegal political fundraising was conducted.

The lawsuit named City Clerk Zeb Navarro, County Registrar of Voters Michael Vu, and Oceanside residents Arleen Hammerschmidt and Kathryn Carbone as defendants. The suit was filed on behalf of resident Barbara Hazlett and backed by Integral Communities, the developer of North River Farms.

A few months after the lawsuit was filed, referendum proponents filed a special motion to strike, claiming the case was a SLAPP suit.

“A SLAPP lawsuit is a frivolous lawsuit filed to

Carlsbad Unified sticks with virtual learning plan for Sept.

By Steve Puterski

CARLSBAD — Schools can reopen for in-person learning on Sept.

1, according to San Diego County Public Health Officer Wilma Wooten.

Wooten made the announcement at an Aug. 25 briefing, which includes all public and private K-12 schools.

However, the final decision as to when a school will reopen remains with the school districts and private school leadership.

As for the Carlsbad Unified School District, Superintendent Ben Churchill said the district will remain with its virtual plans for the district’s schools for the first several weeks.

Elementary schools will be online for the first four weeks through Sept.

21, while middle and high schools will conduct distance learning for the first grading period through Oct. 9.

“We'll transition to in-person instruction after that point,” Churchill said, noting it depends on whether the county remains off the watchlist.

“We expect to have more details about what in-person instruction will look like at the Sept. 9 board meeting.”

On Aug. 18, the state of California removed San Diego County from its watchlist, reflecting that coronavirus cases in the county have fallen below certain state-mandated thresholds.

If the county finds itself back on the watchlist, the process starts again.

The county must have 14 consecutive days of what Churchill calls “non-elevated data” after being off the watchlist to reopen schools.

On the 15th day, students can return to campus. Sept. 1 marks the 15th day after the county came off the watchlist Aug. 18.

And while students may be able to return to school, the CUSD Board of Trustees is also looking at options for both in-person and virtual instruction.

Messages left with Veronica Williams, president of the CUSD board, were not returned before deadline.

Churchill said during the Aug. 19 board meeting the board discussed a hybrid model that allows students on campus two days per week.

“We'll bring back more specifics on Sept.

9,” Churchill said. “We're working now to determine if there is any way to enhance that.”

As for the county’s order, schools must have a safe reopening plan in place to comply with the state’s criteria for opening schools. CUSD has those plans in place, according to previous comments by Churchill.

Currently, 27 schools — mostly private religious schools — have been approved for in-person learning by the county, according to City News Service.

They were among nearly 50 schools that applied for a waiver to the county’s public health guideline regarding in-person teaching.

for the strike motion.

Judge Gregory Pollack of the San Diego Superior Court saw no evidence of forgery or fraud and granted the referendum proponents’ motion to strike in full.

“By winning, now we get to let the voters decide,” DeLano told The Coast News.

Pollack will be issuing a written ruling of his deci-

sion.

“We are very pleased that the judge saw through the empty accusations by the developer and we are looking forward now to making sure the community understands the issues involved in the upcoming ballot measure and Vote No on L,” Hammerschmidt, who was named in the lawsuit, stated in a news release.

“The motivation behind this lawsuit was clear — to intimidate members of the public and to punish those who spoke up in opposition to the project,” Carbone said in the same news release.

“I’m confident that the people of Oceanside will see the truth of what’s happening here and will support our efforts to stop this development by voting no on Measure L in November,” Carbone later told The Coast News via Facebook Messenger.

Though Integral Communities is disappointed in the court’s ruling, Principal Lance Waite said the developer respects the court’s decision and continues to believe its 585-unit housing project will benefit the city.

“We hope the many

merits of an agriculturally based project that looks to solve larger community issues such as traffic, underfunded schools and housing affordability, will garner support from the greater community and urge a YES vote on Measure L,” Waite said in a statement provided to The Coast News.

According to Waite, North River Farms has committed to providing $80 million in infrastructure, over $5 million to the Oceanside Unified School District and affordable homes for “Oceanside’s critical workforce.”

The referendum will appear as Measure L on the ballot. Specifically, it will ask voters if the rezoning of approximately 176.6 acres in northeastern Oceanside (South Morro Hills) to build the North River Farms development project should be adopted.

Many residents are opposed to the housing project, citing concerns including traffic congestion, urban sprawl and its environmental impact on carbon emissions, loss of agricultural land. Additionally, many are concerned about the location of the project

because of its susceptibility to fires.

Dennis Martinek, a concerned resident who is against the housing project, is frustrated by the efforts to stop the referendum.

“We should have the right to vote on this project,” Martinek said.

Another lawsuit naming the same defendants was recently filed in July on behalf of Integral Communities. The new lawsuit argues that the referendum is in violation of Senate Bill 330, a new state law that intends to address the state’s housing shortage and affordability crisis by boosting supply and expediting housing production.

DeLano will once again represent the same defendants in the new case as he did in the previous case.

“I think it’s a bunch of nonsense,” DeLano said.

The new lawsuit argues that the referendum focuses on the zoning while the city’s General Plan that allows housing to be built in the proposed location. DeLano said the Supreme Court of California has already rejected that argument in the 2018 case City of Morgan Hill v. Bushey.

Solana Beach spends federal relief on businesses

By Dan Brendel

SOLANA BEACH — The Solana Beach City Council unanimously approved COVID-19 relief grants to 84 local small businesses, totaling just over $202,000, at their August 26 meeting.

The grants come out of the city’s $239,000 share of federal CARES Act relief, which it received in May through the county government’s process of divvying federal dollars between 17 cities.

Of its allocation, council earmarked the lion’s share (84%) to support small businesses, putting the remainder toward reimbursable COVID-related costs incurred by the city government.

In its small business relief program, council prioritized local brick-and-mortar shops with 20 or fewer employees, and which public health orders forced to close or significantly reduce operations.

During the application window, which lasted only 10 days in early July, 105 businesses applied.

Accepted applicants include 38 salons, estheticians and other personal care businesses (45%); 17 eating and drinking establishments (20%); 14 retail shops (17%); 10 gyms or other fitness or dance establishments; and 5 businesses in a smattering of other categories.

Grant recipients include About You Day Spa, Big Fish Tattoo, Salon by the Cove, St. James Thrift Store, Barefoot Coffee Roasters, Subway, Tidewater Tavern, Fusion Dance Solana Beach, Hyun Kang Taekwondo, Anthony's Shoe

incurred about $92,000 in such costs — $510,000, including personnel costs.

CARES-eligible reimbursable expenses include salaries, overtime and benefits for public employees; additional janitorial and services and disinfection of public areas; face coverings; thermometers; plexiglass dividers; signs reminding people to wear masks; teleworking capacity for city staff; and the like.

Roughly $62,000 remains for public assistance programs, which the council will decide on at a later date.

Coronavirus County adds 228 cases; free testing for school staff announced

8/26/2020

ArcGIS - north county cities for print map

northBycounty cities for print map City News Service REGION — As San Diego County inches closer toward allowing schools to reopen, county officials announced Aug. 26 that they would expand free testing for school staff throughout the region.

Even as the county reported 228 new COVID-19 cases and three additional deaths Wednesday, a case rate continuing to remain under the state’s 100 cases per 100,000 population (it was 80.2 per 100,000 on Wednesday) means that schools will be able to open in the county as soon as Sept. 1.

According to County Supervisor Nathan Fletcher, testing for school staff — teachers, paraprofessionals and others — will be made available for free at all of the county’s 20 testing sites.

Additionally, Fletcher said more will open by the end of September to increase testing accessibility.

The county still does not advise that asymptomatic children get tested, but Fletcher said parents can seek guidance through primary care physicians or seek testing through Rady Children’s Hospital, TriCare or Kaiser Permanente — depending on what health insurance, if any, a family has.

Paul Gothold, the county’s office of education superintendent, thanked county officials Wednesday for passing a $6.55 billion budget the previous day that contained many COVID-19 and education-related line items, including $2 million to make sure students from low-income families have access to the internet for distance learning during the school year.

“This has been an incredibly difficult time,” he said. “We miss our students, our teachers and our classified staff.”

The county’s office of education oversees 42 school districts, more than 80,000 staff members and has at least partial oversight of hundreds of private

Coronavirus in North County

As of Aug. 24, 36,994 people in San Diego County have tested positive for coronavirus including 6,511 people who live in North County cities.

SDG&E sets aside $250,000 for matching grants for teachers REGION — Through a partnership with the DonorsChoose crowdfunding platform, San Diego Gas & Electric has set aside $250,000 in shareholder funding to match donations that help support local teachers with distance learning and with STEM — science, technology, engineering and math projects.

“Teachers are on the front line of making sure that our children continue to learn despite the enormous challenges of COVID-19,’’ said Caroline Winn, SDG&E’s CEO. “They are the champions of our new virtual and socially distanced classrooms, and SDG&E is proud to support them with the resources and materials that they need to prepare our children to be the scientists, engineers and innovators of the future.’’

This is the third year of SDG&E’s partnership with DonorsChoose to support teachers in the San Diego region. In the first two years, the partnership provided $414,159 in matching funds to teachers for STEM projects.

In 2019, the program supported 628 teachers and 92,354 students — almost a fifth of all San Diego County students — at 322 schools in 33 of the San Diego region’s 42 school districts, according to the utility.

This year, SDG&E has expanded the funding program to support teachers with new needs caused by the coronavirus pandemic, such as supplies that can no longer be shared among students and equipment needed to enhance distance learning.

“With the COVID-19 pandemic, teachers across San Diego County have had to get creative to connect and engage with students at home and cultivate their interest in learning,’’ said San Diego County Superintendent of Schools Paul Gothold.

“The support of individual donors and SDG&E will make a big impact this year, especially in creating greater equity for students who may not have the same access to resources and supplies while at home.”

Teacher STEM and distance learning projects of $1,000 or less at schools within the utility’s service territory in San Diego and southern Orange counties are eligible to receive matching funds from SDG&E on the DonorsChoose platform.

It will provide a double match for eligible teacher projects at schools in disadvantaged communities as determined by CalEnviroScreen.

Last year, 67% of the 322 schools in 33 school districts receiving funding from SDG&E were in disadvantaged communities.

Encinitas concedes likely need for more affordable housing sites

By Dan Brendel

ENCINITAS — Based on initial development proposals, sites that Encinitas told the state could support affordable housing will produce many fewer affordable units than projected, despite likely yielding more units overall.

“The applications received to date do not contain as many units at the lower-income level as projected, according to revised language in the city’s 2021-2029 Housing Element update draft. Though the proposals indicate “the sites are likely to yield more [total] units than projected.”

Local jurisdictions must periodically update, and the state must approve, the Housing Element (or chapter) of their General Plans. These updates mean to ensure cities’ land-use policies would reasonably enable private sector housing production to satisfy forecasted demand, affordably, at all incomes.

Encinitas’ current update — not yet approved, but in the works ahead of next spring’s deadline — will cover the period 2021 to 2029 The updated draft identifies 15 sites the city government reckons could support 1,504 lower-income units. The city more or less recycled this inventory from its previous Housing Element, which involved “upzoning” to allow higher residential density — a process culminating only last year,

following a court battle and vocal resident opposition, which continues to simmer.

Carried forward into the present update, the site inventory’s upzoned capacity far exceeded the city’s requirement to plan for 838 lower-income units — a target assigned in last year’s Regional Housing Needs Assessment.

As a result, the city would enjoy what the Housing Element draft calls an “adequate buffer.” That is, even if projects produced fewer affordable units than

Yet at the same time, available including density bonuses, the applicants have proposed 1,453 units overall or 172% of forecasted capacity.

That works out to 5.4 market-rate units for every affordable unit.

“At some point in the [2021-2029] planning period, it is likely that ‘no net loss’ requirements will mandate that additional sites be designated for lower-income housing,” according to the revised Housing Element.

However, “even if all of the applications [for the first 7 sites] are approved as currently proposed, the city’s lower-income inventory, including ADUs [accessory dwelling units], will remain at 974 units, [still] in excess of the 838 units required.”

The revised 974-unit forecast assumes the inventory’s remaining sites will yield their entire projected capacities as affordable units, though the empirical trend so far suggests otherwise.

Investment adviser charged in $2.2M fraud probe

By City News Service

CARLSBAD — The Securities and Exchange Commission on Aug. 25 sued a Carlsbad-based investment adviser and his company for allegedly swindling clients out of more than $2.2 million.

Mark J. Boucher, 56, made unauthorized transfers from client accounts to his own accounts, used client funds to pay his credit card bills, and forged a client's signature on checks from 2010 to earlier this year, according to the complaint filed in San Diego federal court.

The SEC further alleges that Boucher used a significant portion of the stolen funds to pay for his extravagant personal expenses, including vacations and travel.

10

In one instance, Boucher allegedly misappropriated funds from a client to purchase a Chevrolet Camaro, and then, over a year later, sold the car to the client. According to the suit, Boucher also attempted to conceal the swindle by forging a letter, purportedly from a client from whom Boucher took over $1.5 mil-

Moreover, “it is also possible … that affordable lower-income housing may be constructed that is not listed in the city’s inventory and will provide additional capacity,” she said.

Rather than a plan that predictably risks additional upzoning, Encinitas City Council candidate Susan Turney and Planning Commissioner Bruce Ehlers say they’d prefer the city bolster its inclusionary housing policy.

Encinitas currently requires developers to make 10-15% of new residential projects affordable at lower incomes. Other California cities have stiffer inclusionary requirements, such as 25-30% (under certain circumstances) in Corte Madera and 15-25% in Davis.

Did you Know?

There’s a link between your hearing and your sense of balance.

The vestibular system is located in the inner ear and is responsible for your sense of balance, detecting movements to provide awareness of spatial orientation. What many don’t know is there is a link between hearing and balance; multiple studies have confirmed that untreated hearing loss is linked with imbalance and falls.

A 2012 study by Johns Hopkins University determined that even a mild hearing loss triples the risk of falls among the elderly. However, results also suggested that treating hearing loss with hearing devices can help reduce this risk of falling.

Another study published in 2014 by the Washington University School of Medicine confirmed that enhancing hearing improves the balance of adults experiencing hearing loss. In the study, patients who wore

hearing devices performed better on balance tests when their devices were on versus when they were off.

Professor of Otolaryngology, Timothy Hullar, M.D., suggested this was due to more than just improved alertness; he hypothesized that we use sound to tell when we are in space, similar to how sight helps orient us. When hearing is compromised, our balance can suffer.

If you have untreated hearing loss or have recently noticed a change in your hearing, schedule an appointment with a doctor of audiology at Rancho Santa Fe Audiology today!

Residents mourn death of Encinitas lifeguard

ENROLLMENT CONTINUED FROM A1

(+1%), Schiel said.

Likewise, Dougherty believes enrollment in Encinitas will climb once the uncertainty of COVID-19 subsides.

But others think enrollment may not bounce back so quickly.

“Anecdotally I know a large number of parents who have chosen those other options, with many going to charters,” says Todd Maddison, an Oceanside parent and school board candidate for Oceanside Unified’s Trustee Area No. 5. “We know that once a child is moved to a different school, it is incredibly difficult to move them back — a disruption most parents would avoid.”

After San Marcos Unified’s Double Peak School moved online for this year, Jenn Loisel and her husband decided to homeschool their first- and thirdgrade daughters instead — all while traveling across states in an RV, utilizing the outdoors as a classroom.

Loisel says they’ll settle back in San Diego when schools reopen, but San Marcos likely won’t be the district they return to.

“It was a lot for them to sit in front of the computer for so long, then this summer, I didn’t appreciate how the district really lacked

said in a release.

The Coast News reached out to Del Mar Fairgrounds officials on Monday regarding the status of Fennell's employment and was informed he was on vacation this week but remained in his position.

On Tuesday, Jennifer Helman, fairgrounds marketing director, sent an email confirming Fennell’s retirement.

Fennell’s departure was rumored to be imminent, according to the Del Mar Times, following a 22nd DAA special executive meeting on Aug. 24 wherein officials reportedly discussed his employment.

As previously reported by The Coast News, due to COVID-19, the Del Mar Fairgrounds is facing dire financial straits with a likely 90% cut in revenue streams after the cancellation of all events, including the San Diego County Fair.

In July, the 22nd DAA announced it was reducing its current staffing by nearly 60%.

in communication,” Loisel said, citing what she perceived as the district’s poor planning for the new school year.

“That’s why I took matters into my own hands and decided to homeschool this year. But it’s nerve wracking trying to educate your own children. … I know Double Peak has very excellent teachers and a high standard. I just want to make sure I can continue that for my kids.”

Dissatisfaction with distance learning may continue to push students to alternatives. Loisel says teachers are trying to make the best of distance learning, but if they aren’t provided proper resources and training for remote instruction, connecting with students will be all the more challenging.

If persistent, disenrollment could cause schools to lose out on revenue next year, as funding in California largely depends on enrollment. While Maddison says the effects on revenue could be significant, Schiel says it’s too early to tell.

Enrollment numbers from several other school districts will become available in the coming days.

ENCINITAS — Nearly 500 people gathered on the bluffs, beach and in the water for a “Paddle Out for Blake” event on August 24 at Moonlight Beach in Encinitas to honor the life of Blake Dresner, a local lifeguard who passed away earlier this month after a surfing accident in Salina Cruz, Oaxaca.

A 23-year-old Encinitas native, Blake was a lifeguard with the Encinitas Marine Safety Division since 2018. He also travelled the world surfing iconic beaches in Bali, Australia and Mexico.

While surfing with friends on August 15 in Mexico, Blake suffered a fatal injury from his surfboard. Despite being a highly experienced surfer, scuba diver and swimmer, Dresner’s injuries were insurmountable for medical professionals on the scene.

Allison Dresner, Blake’s sister, remembered her brother’s lively spirit, his love for the ocean, and the impact his death had on the Encinitas community.

“He was the life of the party,” Allison said.

“He had this goofy smile that everyone was always drawn to.”

On Wednesday, the Dresner family landed at McClellan Palomar Airport and was met by an honor guard consisting of lifeguards from Encinitas, Carlsbad, Solana Beach and California State Parks, and personnel from the Encinitas Fire Department, San Diego County Sheriff’s Department and Carlsbad Police — all of whom helped escort Blake back to Encinitas.

A “Paddle Out for Blake” event on August 24 was one of three events honoring the beloved life-

guard worldwide, with similar events being held in Australia and Mexico.

Gathering at Moonlight Beach, Encinitas lifeguards passed out facemasks to those present on the beaches and bluffs before participating in the event themselves.

Encinitas Lifeguard Capt. Larry Giles described the connection between Blake, his co-workers at the Marine Safety Division, and the greater Encinitas surf community as “tight-knit” and “long-lasting.”

“It’s definitely been difficult to lose him during the summer to an aquatic, mortal injury but there was no way he could survive [such an injury.] It has resonated here with this community because we’re

all tied into the water… we surf, we respond to calls up and down the area, and for one of your co-workers

to pass that way has a big impact. It’s a huge loss for the lifeguard community,” Giles said.

“Blake was such a good waterman to begin with and his knowledge of our local beaches and waters made him a perfect candidate to be a lifeguard,” Giles said. “He was able to see things in the water that most people didn’t because of his high situational awareness and excellent surf skills.”

The family of Blake Dresner is accepting donations in his honor with the mission of further educating Marine Safety professionals on responding to traumatic water-related.

The family also told The Coast News it will release further information in the coming week.

Residents protest election interference amid USPS slowdown

By Caitlin Steinberg

ENCINITAS — Local protests staged outside of North County post offices underscore a growing fear among residents over the U.S. Postal Service’s ability to deliver essential packages, including medicine, supplies and mail-in ballots.

Recent measures imposed by Postmaster General Louis DeJoy — removal of postal boxes and sorting machines, cuts to overtime pay and reduction of post office hours of operation — have stirred anger and controversy nationwide, prompting citizens and lawmakers to take action.

In previous weeks, U.S. Rep. Mike Levin (D-San Juan Capistrano), as well as the political rights group Indivisible 49, have held demonstrations outside of post offices in Oceanside, Encinitas and Solana Beach, calling for greater accountability and oversight during the upcoming election season.

Other North County rallies have been held in Carlsbad, Vista, and Escondido, according to City News Service. Across San Diego County, rallies have also taken place in Pacific Beach, Ocean Beach, Hillcrest, Normal Heights, Carmel Mountain, Lakeside, University City, Col-

lege Grove, Otay Mesa, San Ysidro and El Cajon, CNS reports.

Tim and Misty O’Healy, two of the founders of Indivisible 49, organized the picket lines, leading students, veterans and elderly residents in a protest against USPS budgetary cuts.

Tim O’Healy, a Marine Corps veteran, described the recent changes as “not only skewing Americans’ ability to vote but an effort to stop voters with voter fraud. It not only affects our economy but everybody’s

way of life and veterans’ health.”

“I joined for a reason and it was to protect our rights,” O’Healy said, “Coming out here to protest is a small sacrifice to save our democracy. If people can’t see what’s happening, they either don’t want to or don’t care.”

Levin, a member of the House Veterans Affairs Committee, also spoke to the extent that recent changes negatively impacted veterans, hosting a demonstration at the Oceanside post

office on Aug. 18.

Levin spoke to The Coast News, highlighting the stories of veterans who reached out to him for answers.

“In some cases, they haven’t received their medications in weeks,” Levin said.

“For some veterans, this is life and death. 330,000 veterans receive medication each business day through the USPS. That’s nearly 20 million prescriptions a year, over 80% of which are sent through the USPS.” Levin returned from

Washington, D.C., on Monday after voting in support of a bill blocking any further changes and allocating $25 billion to save the federal agency. He is also seeking information from the San Diego Postal District.

According to Levin, 671 mail sorting machines were removed across the country, 76 in California postal facilities. Within the 49th Congressional District, Levin said he wants to know how many of the sorting machines were taken, why they were removed and where those machines are now.

“I want a full briefing,” Levin said. “I want to review some of the anecdotal evidence I’ve received from constituents and understand the truth behind some of the changes we’ve seen.”

When pressed for details by The Coast News about the removal of collection boxes from the Encinitas post office, USPS Strategic Communications Specialist Eva Jackson said the boxes were removed eight months ago due to lack of use.

However, the USPS did not respond to further questions regarding budget cuts and the removal of sorting machines immediately following the USPS Board of Governors’ appointment of DeJoy in May.

Even though the USPS has rescinded future service cuts, lawmakers on the U.S. House Oversight Committee questioned DeJoy on Aug. 24 about his motivations for implementing sweeping changes just months before a presidential election.

DeJoy, a well-known donor to President Donald Trump’s campaign, told lawmakers, “I am not engaged in sabotaging the election.

[The USPS] will do everything in our power and structure to deliver ballots on time.”

Speaking at an Indivisible 49 protest on Aug. 15 in Encinitas, Misty O’Healy reiterated concerned residents’ fears that unaccounted changes will negatively impact the upcoming November election.

“Our vote is our voice and our voice matters,” O’Healy said. “People want to be heard and the post office is not political, it’s just American.”

Levin agreed with the idea that the Postal Service shouldn’t be used in a partisan manner.

“We just want to make sure we keep everyone safe and that they can all vote and not have to worry about their health,” Levin told The Coast News. "It really shouldn’t be controversial or partisan in any way.”

Oceanside City Council approves $20 million water metering project

By Samantha Nelson

OCEANSIDE — The City Council approved a more than $20 million advanced water metering system project that will help the city accurately account for consumed water and recover water delivery costs.

Previously in 2016, the council adopted the Urban Water Management Plan and the Water Conservation Master Plan, both of which listed Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) as an integral project that would help the city comply with state requirements, increase water conservation and improve service efficiency.

AMI systems measure, collect and analyze water usage through automated meters, communication networks and data management systems that enable two-way communication between utilities and customers.

The council approved a public works agreement with Ferguson Enterprises, LLC in the amount of $15,815,255 for an AMI system and installation services at its Aug. 19 meeting.

Additionally, Council approved several other professional services agreements for the project that include: • $1,455,180 for UtiliWorks Consulting, LLC for program and construction management services • $86,110 for Honeycutt Consulting Group, LLC for network consulting services • $137,505 for Ferguson Enterprises, LLC for three years of software service • Another $150,000 for three years of maintenance

of network equipment • $188,486 for N. Harris Computer Corporation dba Smartworks for meter data management system software license and three years of support services • Another $40,068 for N. Harris Computer Corporation for three years of software hosting services.

The council also approved a purchase order in an amount not to exceed $500,000 to Core & Main, LP for the purchase of large water meters.

The total cost of the project is more than $20 million.

To fund the project, staff applied for WaterSMART: Water and Energy Efficiency Projects Grant Funding through the Bureau of Reclamation for Fiscal Year 2019-20 for the AMI project. The project was selected to receive a $1.5 million in July 2019, and another $1.5 million in February of this year after applying for the 2020-21 fiscal year.

Staff is currently preparing a third application for the grant funding for Fiscal Year 2021-2022 in the same amount of $1.5 million.

The city also recently issued Water Revenue Bonds in the amount of $30 million as a low cost funding source for the project.

The council first rejected the AMI contracts in June 17 in a 3-2 vote, but a secondary motion was approved for staff to bring back the item at a later date after the council was provided additional information

about the project. The council unanimously approved the contracts on Aug. 19.

The AMI project will occur in several phases over the next few years.

Phase 1 will include more than 21,500 automated meters installed by November 2022, Phase 2 will

include more than 11,000 additional automated meters by February 2023 and Phase 3 will include more than 11,000 additional meters by the end of 2023.

According to staff, benefits of an AMI system include enhanced customer awareness of hourly and

daily water use, timely leak detection, reduced water consumption, increased water-use efficiency, increased access to tracking tools for state-mandated water conservation efforts and improved billing processes.

Additional benefits include increased personnel

safety.

Currently, City Meter Services staff manually read 44,500 meters monthly by walking 100 routes, averaging 8-10 miles of walking per day. With the AMI system, staff won’t have to walk city streets and repeatedly lift meter covers.

Notice is hereby given that 45-day public review and comment period has been established pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) for a Draft Environmental Impact Report (EIR) which has been prepared for the proposed project as identified below, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15087: PROJECT NAME: Fox Point Farms; CASE NUMBER: MULTI-3524-2019; CPP-35252019; SUB-3526-2019; DR-3528-2019; and CDPNF-3529-2019; APPLICANT: Nolen Communities, LLC; LOCATION: 1150 Quail Gardens Drive, Encinitas, California; DESCRIPTION: Nolen Communities, LLC (applicant) proposes the development of a 250unit residential “agrihood” community on a 21.48-acre site in the City of Encinitas.

The project proposes 210 market-rate units and 40 very low-income units (affordable to households earning no more than 50 percent of area median income). Units would range from two to three stories in height and would comply with the development requirements of the City’s General Plan Housing Element Update, as adopted in 2019, including restrictions on maximum average unit size (1,000 square feet average for apartments; 1,150 square feet average for cottages/carriage units/townhomes). The property would be subdivided into four lots. Lot 1 would consist of 197 apartments, edible landscaping, community gardens, trails, a bocce court, social spaces, an informal outdoor community library, and a community recreation center. Lot 2 would consist of a shared public/private agricultural amenity area including a farm-to-table restaurant (with alcohol sales as an accessory use), event lawns, discovery garden, outdoor dining areas, greenhouse and community event space, and an outdoor education patio. Lot 3 would consist of an organic farm operation, including farm operation buildings, an orchard, and a chicken coop. Lot 4 would consist of 53 for-sale cottages/carriage units/ townhomes.

SIGNIFICANT ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS ANTICIPATED AS A RESULT OF THE PROJECT: The Draft EIR concludes that the project would not result in significant environmental impacts with the incorporation of mitigation measures for biological resources, cultural resources, geology and soils (paleontological resources), hazards and hazardous materials, and tribal cultural resources. Based on the EIR analysis, transportation impacts related to vehicles-miles-traveled (VMT) cannot be mitigated to less than significant levels. Therefore, transportation impacts are significant and unavoidable.

PUBLIC REVIEW AND COMMENT PERIOD: A 45-day public review and comment period has been established from August 28, 2020 to October 12, 2020. All written comments on the Draft EIR should be clearly itemized and focus on the sufficiency of the document in identifying and analyzing the possible impacts on the environment and ways in which the significant effects of the project might be avoided or mitigated.

Written comments must be submitted by 6:00 p.m. on October 12, 2020 to: Scott Vurbeff, Development Services Department, City of Encinitas, 505 S. Vulcan Avenue, Encinitas, CA 92024.

During the public review period, the Draft EIR will be available for review on the City’s website at https://encinitasca.gov/I-Want-To/Public-Notices/Development-Services-Public-Notices under “Environmental Notices.” The Draft EIR, supporting documents, and project application may be purchased for the cost of reproduction by contacting the Planning Division of the Development Services Department at (760) 633-2710.

After the close of the 45-day public review and comment period, responses to public comments will be prepared and included within the Final EIR. The City of Encinitas Planning Commission will utilize the Final EIR as an informational resource in consideration of the project.

FURTHER INFORMATION: For environmental review information, please contact Scott Vurbeff at (760) 633-2692. For information regarding public hearings/meetings on this project, please contact Anna Colamussi at (760) 633-2724.

Inside look at Build NCC safety infrastructure improvements to I-5 Driving along Interstate 5 (I-5), you may have seen Caltrans and SANDAG Build NCC construction crews hard at work installing new highway safety improvements.

Some of these features can be easily spotted, while others have been installed as part of a network of underground utility infrastructure within the reconstructed median, outside freeway shoulders, or beneath the existing I-5 travel lanes.

A few of these new additions include: overhead light fixtures at Intermediate Access Points (IAP), wrong-way ramp signage, and fiber optic cabling installed underneath the highway.

Just recently added near Santa Fe Drive in Encinitas and Poinsettia Lane in Carlsbad, new median light fixtures at IAPs will provide improved visibility

for motorists, illuminating stretches of I-5 where motorists can safely enter and exit the new Carpool/HOV Lanes.

In addition, wrong-way ramp signals have been installed at both northbound and southbound off-ramps at Santa Fe Drive. These signals include red warning lights. As the project progresses, similar signals will be installed at on-andoff ramps along I-5 between Birmingham Drive in Encinitas and Palomar Airport Road in Carlsbad.

Features not as apparent include fiber optic cable lines installed under the new Carpool/HOV Lanes.

These cables will support future electronic overhead signage and improve overall freeway operations, traffic flows, and enhance motorist safety and mobility along I-5.

To ensure safety for both motorists and highway

crews during I-5 construction, drivers are reminded to “Drive 55 on the 5” in the Build NCC construction zone and that traffic fines are doubled in construction zones. The SANDAG operat-

ed Motorist Aid service for roadside assistance can be easily accessed by dialing 5-1-1 anywhere in San Diego County.

Additionally, the “Move Over” law requires all driv-

ers to move over a lane or, if they are unable to do that safely, slow down when they see amber flashing lights on Caltrans vehicles, law enforcement and emergency vehicles, and tow trucks.

About Build NCC Build NCC is a collaborative effort between Caltrans, SANDAG, and the U.S. Department of Transportation. The first phase of construction began in the cities of Solana Beach, Encinitas, and Carlsbad as part of the North Coast Corridor Program.

Build NCC includes extending the HOV lanes on I-5 in each direction from Lomas Santa Fe Drive to State Route 78, double tracking the rail line at the San Elijo Lagoon, replacing the highway and rail bridges at the San Elijo Lagoon, restoring the San Elijo Lagoon, and constructing nearly seven miles of new bike and pedestrian trails.

Construction on Build NCC began in early 2017 and is expected to be completed by 2022.

Super hack for dyslexia blows away parents, students, educators Are you frustrated that your child is still behind in reading even after enrolling them in special learning programs and spending hundreds to thousands of dollars on tutoring and other reading programs?

Reading is a particular challenge for roughly 15% of Americans who suffer from Dyslexia.

Unfortunately, there aren’t many effective resources out there for those with this learning disorder, but Dr. David Bloch in Carlsbad is now the region’s leading resource for conquering these complex reading problems.

Dr. Bloch, a licensed eye-care provider and reading expert, has developed a clever solution to Dyslexia with his program Reading Without Limits.

Those with Dyslexia suffer from poor word recognition, according to Dr.

READING IS A particular challenge for roughly 15% of Americans who suffer from Dyslexia. Courtesy photo

Bloch. This includes difficulty with sounding out words, struggling to learn new words, and the inability to remember words from one page to the next.

Many poor readers are unable to track words in the proper order. This causes reading errors like adding, omitting, substituting and transposing words. These

two factors combined results in confusion and poor comprehension.

“Dyslexic students are intelligent people, they just can’t read the words on the page,” Dr. Bloch said. “The answer requires reprogramming how the brain stores and retrieves information.”

Those with Dyslexia can’t correct their reading

skills through practicing traditional reading methods that apply phonics and sight-reading.

Using phonics and sight-reading is “almost like giving them the wrong instructions,” Dr. Bloch said.

Dr. Bloch’s approach is completely different.

According to the doctor, having Dyslexia is like trying to find books placed on the wrong shelves in a library. To fix it, all of the books need to be taken off the shelves and reorganized correctly — which is what Reading Without Limits does.

Reading Without Limits applies reading drills that reprogram how the brain finds key information, helping readers to recognize words immediately, improve their reading fluency and increase their reading speed and comprehension in less than three months.

“My program not only gets them caught up but also puts them ahead of where they’re supposed to be,” Dr. Bloch said.

“The improvement I saw in my daughter happened fast,” said Kristy Fowler of San Marcos about her third grader. “Within four months, she went from refusing to read to enjoying reading and reading at a high school level.”

Now in the 8th grade, her daughter has been in honors level language arts and history classes for the past three years and is at the top of her class with a reading level of a college graduate student.

Rhonda Tremblay, a superintendent of a Southern California school district, explained how the program vastly improved one of her student’s lives. The student was in the latter part of high school and only reading at a

first-grade level, but after five months of working with Dr. Bloch, he was reading confidently at a fifth-grade level.

Reading Without Limits gets results like no other program targeting Dyslexia. Many Dyslexia specialists still often use traditional methods that either work much slower or don’t work at all.

Dr. Bloch’s program is an incredible resource that is “changing people’s lives.”

“They can’t get this everywhere,” he said. “It’s not a do-it-yourself kind of thing.”

Get more information by visiting readingwithoutlimits.com or schedule an evaluation by calling 760730-3711. Ask about the “Back to School” discount.

Dr. Bloch’s office is located at 2814 Roosevelt St. Suite B, Carlsbad, CA. 92008.

Lazy Acres spreads health and wellness with free virtual cooking classes With in-person cooking classes currently on hold due to COVID-19, Lazy Acres Market has found creative new ways to continue engaging with the community through virtual, livestreamed cooking classes and wellness workshops.

Lazy Acres Natural Market is a natural food store with five locations throughout Southern California.

Lazy Acres is like any traditional grocery with its seafood, a deli and other specialized departments, but what makes it unique from other grocery stores is that it sells natural products with an emphasis on health and wellness items.

Lazy Acres also offers a wide variety and prioritizes sourcing local products in its stores. It also has an excellent natural living department that specializes in vitamins and supplements, which complements the store’s mission

to emphasize health and wellness.

According to Cait Gunderson, Lazy Acres Corporate Marketing Manager and Community Rooms Director, Lazy Acres is also unique because of its focus on community engagement.

“Every single one of our stores is heavily involved in their communities, whether it’s supporting local schools or non-profits that align with who we are as a brand,” Gunderson said.

Prior to COVID-19, Lazy Acres was providing cooking lessons in its Community Rooms rooms in Encinitas and Hermosa Beach.

The Moonlight Room at the Encinitas location was home to classes for ages as young as toddlers to adults.

Local Chef Isabelle Baril has been teaching those classes since the room opened in 2016.

Shortly after the pan-

demic restricted everyone to the Internet. In April, the mostly to their homes, Lazy store began livestreaming Acres took its cooking classes cooking classes on its Face-

book page (https://www.facebook.com /LazyAcresMarket/).

The completely free classes feature a single recipe each session. Information is posted a few days prior to a class to allow students to gather the ingredients and utensils needed for a recipe so they are prepared to follow along during the class.

The recipes range in difficulty from adventurous to kid-friendly and include everything from baking cookies to classic Mexican, Thai and Morroccan cuisines to vegan dishes. There is a special emphasis on easily made, healthy dishes.

In addition to virtual cooking classes, Lazy Acres is also livestreaming wellness workshops.

The store partners with local community partners to bring these videos to life.

“We’re always looking for wellness workshop partners

to connect with as well as other wellness experts,” Gunderson said.

Even if someone misses a class, they can always go back and watch the video after it was livestreamed. They can also still see questions and comments from other participants during the lessons.

The virtual classes also provide customers near locations that don’t have Community Rooms rooms access to cooking and wellness lessons through Lazy Acres.

“We’re just trying to spread the good word on health and wellness and make it all achieveable for everyone in our community,” Gunderson said.

To watch the cooking classes and wellness workshops, check out Lazy Acres’ Facebook page under its events section (https://www. facebook.com/LazyAcresMarket/events/?ref=page_internal).

Sports Encinitas golfers bring home SCGA Amateur championships

T

wo North County golfers seldom cried, “Fore!” when winning a pair of prestigious events.

“It’s like Encinitas has become a hub for golf,” Jaime Jacob said.

Jacob and Luke Potter recently won their divisions at the Southern California Golf Association’s Amateur Championship tournaments.

Both share the same city, and high school, La Costa Canyon.

Jacob, 22, went on to star at Cal State University San Marcos, where she won the Division II national title, while leading the squad to a runner-up finish for the team crown.

Potter, 16, who paced the Mavericks to the state title last year, became the youngest player to win the men’s SCGA Am and that’s over 121 years.

“Age doesn’t really matter,” Potter said. “We’re all playing the same course.

It’s all about if you have the game.”

Potter rallied from five shots behind in the final round as his 10-under par 62 forced a three-hole playoff with Torrey Pines’ Caden Fioroni. When Potter drained a long putt on the final hole, the title was his.

Jacob finished first in her last tournament as an amateur and, like Potter, did so with a flair at Mira Loma’s Goose Creek Golf Club.

She started the final day one shot back and she was down two at the turn.

Five birdies on the back nine allowed Jacob to hoist the trophy as her three-day score of 10-under set a tournament record.

While Jacob smiled, Greg Hutton, her CSUSM coach, shrugged.

“She prepares for tournaments with a mindset of winning,” Hutton said. “I’m pretty sure every time Jaime tees it up, she believes she can win.”

Both players thank their dads for pointing them toward golf, and just maybe fathers do know best.

“That was where the car was going so as a younger sister that was where I went,” Jacob said. “But in sixth grade I quit swimming because I wanted to do something else.”

The golf bug bit Jacob while she was trying not to be a pest to her dad, Jim Jacob, when he practiced at the Encinitas Ranch Golf Course.

“He would get a bucket of balls and that’s where I started,” she said. “It was a little frustrating in the beginning, but I ended up sticking with it.

“It was something I could do alone and I my introverted self appreciated that. It was really quiet and it ended up being a good match. I just took a funny way of getting there.”

Jacob, who is coached

by Encinitas Ranch’s Doug Timmons, is on the move again. She’ll play the Cactus Tour and other events as she vies for the Ladies Professional Golf Association Tour.

“That’s my goal,” she said. “Ideally I would love to play on the LPGA Tour but I’m comfortable falling back on my degree, too.”

Jacob isn’t just a golf ace. Her high GPA while earning a degree in global business management was as impressive as her low scores.

SDG&E warns of new scam

small talk jean gillette

By City News Service

REGION — San Diego Gas & Electric warned its customers Aug. 25 that a new wave of scammers is targeting them and threatening to cut off their service unless they pay their utility bills immediately with prepaid cards.

The most common tactic reported is scammers impersonating SDG&E’s billing department and asking for payment via Green Dot MoneyPak, a way of sending cash via prepaid or bank debit cards.

According to the utility, in these scams criminals typically threaten immediate power shutoffs to scare customers into making an immediate payment.

Once customers purchase prepaid debit cards or make wire transfers based on the scammer’s instructions, they are asked to call another phone number to provide the card information, which allows the thieves to steal the money.

It can be especially confusing for victims, according to an SDG&E statement, as the phone number scammers use might play a recorded message and menu options that mimic SDG&E’s official customer service line, which is 1-800-4117343. When victims call the number provided by scammers, they might hear a recorded message that tells them they are calling SDG&E's business line. They are given different menu options, including one to pay their bill or to report a gas leak or power outage.

Utility officials say SDG&E will never call a customer to proactively ask for payment information during the call. CusTURN TO SCAM ON B5

y summer vacation is over, but here in our little slice of paradise, it should still feel like summer for another month or more. Therefore, I have decided to go ahead and offer up my summer reading list.

Even if you are back in the workaday world, sitting by an open window in the cool of the evening, with a book and a root beer float, can stretch that summer feeling rather effectively.

For us grownups, I discovered Jennifer Weiner, and I devoured “Good in Bed” (not what you think it’s about) and “In Her Shoes.” Just as I finished “Good in Bed,” I noticed it had been edited by Liza Nelligan.

To me, Liza was just another cool mom volunteer at our La Costa elementary school, but also a brilliant English literature professor who taught poetry to my son’s fifth-grade class.

We lost Liza to breast cancer in 2003, and seeing her name in the credits was a bittersweet moment for me.

I forced myself to finish “The Mad Monk of Gidleigh” by Michael Jecks, which was a murder mystery set in England in the time of serfs and knights.

I was drawn to it because it reminded me of the Cadfael mysteries by Ellis Peters. Peters has written a series of brilliant murder mysteries solved by Brother Cadfael, a monk and apothecary of medieval times.

They are a perfect mix of historical fiction and

By City News Service

REGION — The San Diego County Water Authority announced Aug. 24 it is partnering with the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego to better predict atmospheric rivers and improve water management before, during and after those seasonal storms.

This month, Scripps' Center for Western Weather and Water Extremes launched the Water Affiliates Group, which brings together science and hands-on water industry experience to enhance reservoir operations in light of the changing climate.

The water authority has a long-running alliance with Scripps.

The center and its partners will share best practices in forecast- informed reservoir operations, increase research around atmo-

Encinitas 101 lost a friend, John Paul (JP) Baker, and is hoping the community can help his family during this time. JP was someone who offered to help build our newly renovated retail space at our office and he left a lasting mark on us. He was a hard worker and an even more dedicated father to his little girls. Tragically, JP was traveling home from work recently to pick up his daughters when he collided with a big-rig truck. Encinitas 101 members are shocked and devastated by this loss. JP was a dedicated dad to his two daughters. In January 2019, he left the East Coast to start a new life as a single father in San Diego to offer better opportunities for his girls and to be close to his sister, Sandy. Hearts break especially for JP’s daughters, who lost their only parent. A GoFundMe page — gofundme.com/f/in-memoryof-john-paul-jp-baker — has been set up to establish a trust for his daughters.

ESCONDIDO — Internationally known and multi-talented artist Robert Lee Freeman shared his skills and compassion to benefit all of us and is a 2020 Escondido Forever Legend.

Freeman was born on the Rincon Indian Reservation in 1939, and except for a short stay in the Bay Area, lived his life in the Escondido area. He attended Central School and Escondido High School.

Freeman loved sports and played football. When he was 18, he enlisted in the Army and served for three years, the last year at the DMZ in South Korea. After he received his honorable discharge from the Army, he held many jobs to support himself, but always loved sketching and creating sculptures.

With his natural, selftaught ability, Freeman established a following for his drawings, oils. acrylics and wood carvings. In 1967 he decided to become a fulltime artist, producing murals, sculptures, etchings, designs and exhibits.

His murals may be viewed at Saint Bartholomew’s Catholic Church on the Rincon Reservation, Harrah’s Casino, California State Museum in Lake Perris, and the Los Angeles Library in San Gabriel. His scu lptures FREEMAN include “Tukwut,” a life size bronze sculpture of a mountain lion at the entrance to California State University San Marcos, “The Journey” in Santa Fe Springs, California, and “Coronne” in San Juan Capistrano, honoring Native American women.

Freeman also had exhibits of his art at the Mingei International Museum in Balboa Park, Riverside County Art Museum, and the University of Vermillion.

Freeman’s works traveled throughout the United States for four decades, and to Yokohama, Japan, and Germany. He created art for Gov. Jerry Brown and Mayor Tom Bradley of Los

As an author, Freeman wrote and illustrated booklets including “War Hoops”, “Jazz”, “For Indians Only” and “Rubber Arrows.”

Freeman provided illustrations in Welda Johnson’s, “Brothers of the Earth” (available in the gift shop of the Santa Fe Train Depot in Grape Day Park).

Lee’s compassion led him to donate both his art and time to the Salvation Army, the Boys Club, Native American Women’s Club, Heart Fund, Kidney Foundation and many others.

He and Edwina, his wife,

traveled for many years to a village 15 miles South of Tijuana to improve the living conditions of the impoverished citizens in that area.

Education was also a calling. At Palomar College, Freemantaught in the Art Department and Native American Studies for 16 years. He was also the Artist in Residence at the University of San Diego in 2003.

Because of his natural gifts in multiple forms of artistic expression and his compassion for others, Freeman is a 2020 Escondido Forever Legend.

Mindfulness is perfect for this moment in time soul

on fire Susan Sullivan

T

imes like these make cultivating a mindful practice in your everyday life more critical than ever.

Mindfulness is paying attention to the moment to moment experiences throughout the day and letting go of any judgment about the experiences.

Drawing from the Eight Teachings of the Buddha, which has become more secular these days, it is quite simple to achieve if one practices being aware of each moment as it arises.

As humans, we have become habituated into thinking of future events or thinking about moments that have passed, giving very little thought or attention to the present moment — where living actually occurs.

Today's latest neuroscience teaches us that our thoughts — or anything we think about repeatedly — we default into every day, especially if we are angry, lonely, tired, or hungry.

And when those thoughts are worry, fear, or uncertainty, as many of us are experiencing around COVID, we feel vulnerable, which leads the way to our brain defaulting.

Then we are off and running back down the bunny hole.

We remember past experiences, and how a person acted in a certain way, or how we experienced something as a child. We begin weighing and measuring, calculating with an expectation that it will be the same experience as before. It's no wonder we can get stuck with the same outcomes repeatedly as our minds go into a loop of the past. It makes me weary just writing about it.

To break free of this behavior takes practice and is a workout for the mind, just like the practice of lifting weights. We can become more accepting of life when we practice being in the present moment and embrace the thoughts we have as we have them.

One can start to notice everything with a feeling of serenity and peace, even gratitude.

According to Mindfulness expert Julie Chippendale, with this practice, people can be in every moment of their life and not need or want to have it be something else. They can make better decisions when they look at what is true in the moment versus what may have happened in the past. “Life becomes simple when you allow yourself to feel how you feel. The simple essence of every person is the desire to live fully as who they are, not who society has told them to be.

With mindfulness practice, you can remember who you really are and have compassion for yourself.”

For over 25 years, Julie, an RN and mindfulness practitioner, has brought this awareness to people through eight-week Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction courses and weekly meditations at Scripps En-

cinitas. (Check out www. mbsrencinitas.com for more information, times, locations, and virtual classes during the pandemic.)

Julie and her late husband, a neurologist, studied under Jon Kabat-Zinn, the father of modern Mindfulness back in the ’70s, and is a renowned expert in the field.

North County residents race to file for citizenship before Oct. 2 REGION — North County Immigration & Citizenship Center (NCICC) was founded to help local immigrants navigate the complex legal and cultural pathways to U.S. citizenship, a mission that just became more urgent.

Mentioning my recent affinity toward eating ice cream more regularly than I'd like to admit as a way of combating stress, Julie advised me to just start by noticing it.

Then have compassion for myself as I notice I've been eating ice cream on the regular. She encouraged me to simply realize

that ice cream makes me feel good and then suggested I do a simple three-part compassion exercise.

First, say to yourself, “This is hard.” This COVID business really is hard.

Second, say, “I am not alone.” Let's face it, if COVID taught us anything, it’s that we are all in this together. Julie says that this feeling of “shared humanity” opens us up to not feeling separate from our fellow man and feeling connected allows us to get through anything.

And lastly, say a mantra of, “May I be kind to myself.” What does it mean to be kind to myself?

“There is no cure for a lot of ailments in the world,” Chippendale said.

“There is much suffering, especially right now.

When my husband and I started this some 30 years ago, we wanted to find the best way for people to heal.

The healing comes from knowing that it is possible to have contentment with what is —being open to the moment. But it takes practice, and then one day, all of a sudden, you remember who you are. You become your authentic self.”

When we have never been more divided at a time in history, I'm ready to give this shared humanity thing a better try with a more devout mindfulness practice — especially if it will bring more compassion to the world and myself.

ou and one friend are feasting on a 2- to 3-foot peak as an army of endorphins march through your brain like Genghis Kahn.

The setting sun dries salt water on your skin, leaving you with a feeling that all is well in the world.

As the sun bids good night, a final green flash signals go. You strap your boards on the roof and your favorite hits are keyed up for the ride home.

It’s all perfect until a friend peels into the parking lot, slams on his brakes and manically proclaims, “You guys missed it!” You try to explain how you scored; pointing down the beach to the dribbling beach break you left behind.

He is having none of it.

Just then he goes into a long, painful description of a reef you know of just south of the border where he and a friend traded overhead barrels until their legs were too cramped to move any longer.

ute to the Creator’s symmetrical artistry. You are replaying your last wave — the late drop on that overhead wall, the buried rail on the bottom turn, a momentary cover up and a hard bounce off that final inside section.

Just then your friend paddles over and tells you how you outran the section and could have scored your first dry barrel in months.

“You might consider using smaller rail fins and riding your smaller board,” he advises.

The compliment you anticipated has vaporized along with your good mood, and the stylish ripping you envisioned yourself doing has been replaced by the self-image of a stinkbug.

You flip your board over and examine your fins that now appear to be the size of those on a ’64 Caddy.

You feel sluggish on your next wave and paddle back out to observe your friend disappear behind the curtain, flying out and laying into a deep cutback that nearly chokes you with

its spray. You consider taking up golf.

You know how this plays out — there’s always something better around the bend and that makes it difficult to be satisfied.

That has happened to me while surfing what we considered perfect waves on Maui until we were told that the swell was missing Maui and hitting Oahu. Or, the cove around the corner was bigger, faster, steeper and nobody was out. Your board you are riding is obsolete. You were shoulder-hopped on the wave of the day.

Didn’t our parents warn us about this in the little proverb about the grass being greener over the hill?

In this case it could be that the waves are bluer and bigger and better just down the beach. I know it’s impossible, but try to not fall for it.

You are riding a wave that was formed in chaos and then traveled thousands of miles for your enjoyment.

Say thank you to whatever deity you worship.

If you are an atheist, thank the wave for the miracle you have just encountered. Like this moment, it is gone forever.

BREAD WINNER Prager Brothers Artisan Bread brings traditional goodness to North County

lick the plate david boylan

G

oing back about eight years now, I had the pleasure of hosting Louie Prager, the co-owner of Prager Brothers Artisan Bread, on one of the early episodes of Lick the Plate when we were on KPRI. I distinctly remember him bringing a bag full of amazing bread for the interview and assuring me that it all would freeze very well, which it did.

But there is really nothing like a fresh baguette or, more specifically, the crispy ends of a fresh baguette.

As I have since come to learn, the French have a thing for those ends as well; they call it “le crouton” or “le quignon.”

So, keep that in mind the next time you are walking away from wherever you buy your Prager Brothers bread and you just can’t help yourself from snapping off those beautiful ends.

All that said, when I heard that Prager Brothers had opened a storefront in downtown Encinitas and are soon to open another in Hillcrest, I had to check in with them and get caught up.

I had also noticed they were no longer at the Leucadia Farmers Market so I needed to get my fix of some of the best bread in San Diego … and we have quite a selection of local bakers doing amazing bread.

When I reached out to the Pragers, I found out

that Louie was taking a break from the business up in Washington state getting an advanced degree in breeding and developing new varieties of grain. The other brother, Clinton, was around though, handling the day-to-day operations of their growing endeavor.

We got together to record a Lick the Plate on the 101KGB show, which is where I got fully up to speed on all things Prager Brothers.

The bread brothers, as they are called, were born and raised in Carlsbad, siblings who shared passion for baking traditional, wholesome bread the natu-

along with a nice selection of sweets.

The bread selection is extensive and includes a country sourdough, Miche

The Encinitas store is charming and rustic, just like their bread ... ral, hand-shaped way.

With Clinton’s degree in music from UC Santa Cruz and Louie's degree in plant biology from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, the pair have successfully combined their talents in art and science to craft a fast-growing community bakery, retail distribution at both restaurants and grocery stores, and soon-to-be three retail bread shops.

With the sharp decline in restaurant clients due to COVID-19, they had to pivot quickly and decided to seek out another retail location outside of North County. Hillcrest was calling and that store should be open soon.

The Encinitas store is charming and rustic, just like their bread and, as an added bonus, offers several sandwiches every day built on their amazing bread,

(farm bread), bauernbrot (German farm bread), classic French baguette, flatbread, Bavarian pretzel, ciabatta rolls and so much more.

Sweets include scones, Belgian chocolate chip cookies, fruit galettes, fig walnut bars, croissants,

fruit Danish, shortbread cookie, granola and the list goes on.

And trust me, folks, everything they make is amazing.

What got me really excited about the Encinitas location though was the daily selection of sandwiches, available from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

There are only four but each is just so perfect.

The ham and cheese on a baguette made with Beeler’s ham, cave-aged Gruyere, house-made mustard and cultured butter will make you think you are in France.

I could eat this sandwich every day.

As somewhat of a sandwich connoisseur, I feel that between Prager Brothers and Moto Deli we have two world-class sandwich joints within a couple of miles of each other on Coast Highway in Encinitas.

Oh, and this is worth pointing out, they have a baking schedule posted on their website that details when they are baking their extensive lineup of offerings.

And I should say this as well: This is not the place to go if you freak out on gluten.

This is an artisan bread, sweets and more joint based on a time when gluten-free was not a thing.

If you do not have Celiac and do gluten-free for whatever reason, please make some room in your diet for places like Prager Brothers.

I mean, really, why deny yourself this slice of old-world goodness?

Beat the heat with a delicious, boozy ice cream cocktail Cheers!

Ryan Woldt

M

any moons ago, I took a bartending job at a supper club called Mariner’s. They had been around for decades and were famous for two things: Friday night fish fry and ice cream drinks.

The first order on my very first shift came in for a Brandy Alexander. The Brandy Alexander is a classic drink traditionally made with a fine cognac or brandy, creme de cacao and cream.

At Mariner’s, they substituted ice cream for the cream and topped it with whipped cream and a dash of nutmeg.

“Where is the blender?” I asked my trainer.

“We do it by hand here,” he replied handing me a mixing cup, scoop and a steak knife. I’m sure my face held a mixed expression of shock and fear as he directed me to the five-gallon ice cream cartons in the blisteringly cold freezer under the far end of the bar.

The ice cream was frozen solid. I chipped away at it with the knife-like I was trying to break through the nearby frozen lake for an ice fishing session.

Ice fishing is an insane hobby…err…heralded tradition in the Midwest where you drill or chip a hole in a frozen lake. Drop a fishing line through it. Then wait

until a fish comes along.

Sometimes they build little ice shanties to wait for it.

Bit by bit the ice cream came loose. I filled up the mixing cup and poured in the house brandy and cream de cacao.

I began mashing the ice cream with the scoop then switched to an oversized fork. Sweat was beading on my forehead.

Finally, I had a smooth enough mixture which I poured into a martini glass,

topped it with a dollop of whipped cream and dash of nutmeg. I handed it to an elderly woman smiling at me from across the bar to the elderly woman.

The trainer handed me another order ticket. Five more Brandy Alexanders.

He was openly laughing at me now. I headed back to the freezer to begin chipping away.

By the end of the night, I was exhausted. I went home, iced my shoulder and

composed a very polite resignation letter.

I promised myself I would never make another ice cream drink again.

But this week it has been hot. So hot I wanted ice cream. I wanted ice cream with booze in it. I wanted a Brandy Alexander.

There was already Courvoisier (cognac) in the liquor cabinet and a vanilla bean ice cream in the fridge. I was only missing the creme de cacao, but

I decided to substitute in Kahlua. The coffee flavor would mix well with the sweetness of the cognac.

Unlike that day at Mariner’s, I would not mix this by hand.

I scooped a half cup of ice cream into the blender, and carefully measured out a single shot of Courvoisier and 3/4 ounce of Kahlua. Then I added an extra splash to the mix, and blended away.

What I was left with was an ice-cold, creamy cocktail. I poured it into a mason jar, dashed some nutmeg, and took a sip.

Success! Oh my! Vanilla, coffee, and the spice intertwined by the sweet alcohol flavor of the cognac.

I moved outside into the heat, and collapsed into a lounge chair. Any residual resentment I had held towards ice cream drinks or Mariner’s faded away with each sip of the icy desert, and I found myself wondering, Would it be better if I tried mixing it by hand?

Tomorrow, Mudslides!

T

he headline on this week’s column happens to be the tagline of one of Baja California’s premier vineyards and wineries in Valle Guadalupe, Villa Montefiori, overseen by owner and winemaker Paolo Paoloni.

Senior Editor Frank and I had the pleasure of dining with Paoloni this week at Sal Ercolano’s West End Bar & Kitchen featuring Villa Montefiori’s wines over a six-course wine dinner.

When few restaurants are holding in-person wine dinners, Ercolano, ensuring COVID-19 safety protocols are being met, is providing his customers opportunities to enjoy traditional great value wine dinners that he

PAOLO PAOLINI, owner and winemaker at Villa Montefiori in Valle Guadalupe, one of Baja California’s premier vineyards and wineries. Photo by Frank Mangio

is famous for.

Paoloni’s family started with horses in Le Marche, near Tuscany. In the 1950s, his father Carlo Paoloni purchased a property in Chiari-

no Recanati, where the family planted a vineyard and built a winery.

His experience with viticulture as a child shaped Paolo’s education and career; he became a Doctor of Agronomy specializing in Enology from the University of Perugia. In 1985, he emigrated to Mexico as the Director of Wine and Spirits for Mexico’s largest wine producer, Valle Redondo in Aguascalientes.

In 1997, Paoloni purchased a 38-hectare property in Toros Pintos, Valle de Guadalupe, Ensenada and founded Villa Montefiori.

He planted the vineyard in 1998 with grape clones from France and Italy including Sangiovese, Montepulciano, Nebbiolo, Brunello, Aglianico, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Shiraz.

Just over half of the

property, 20 hectares, is planted and 18 hectares are native for guests to take in the scenery that includes their tasting room where Chef Surinder Veer Singh creates heavy appetizers for guests to savor.

Additionally, Paoloni is building a nine-room hotel on the property that is scheduled to open in January 2021, followed by an accompanying restaurant slated for a March 2021 launch.

Dinner started with Chardonnay Paoloni and Chef Noe’s small bites. Next up was a Citrus Jeweled Ceviche featuring fresh sea bass paired with Villa Montefiori Rosato from Sangiovese fruit. The lightness of the salmon-colored Rose’ was simpatico with the citrus-inspired ceviche. The third course was Enchilada Potosinas matched up with a Cabernet-Merlot blend followed by Asada Beef Tacos with Sangiovese Grosso Paoloni (fourth course).

In a sidebar conversation, Paolo challenged Frank and me to a friendly blind tasting of Brunellos and Super Tuscans up against his Sangiovese Grosso. Paoloni’s first objective is “to have the best wines possible and not money.”

We are working on a future date for the blind tasting to coincide with a oneon-one interview with Frank and Paolo. I am already looking forward to the blind tasting. In the same sidebar, Paoloni noted, “Chemistry, sight, and especially (the) taste of the grape’s seeds were indicators of when it is time to harvest.”

The main course featured Filet Poblano (beef tenderloin) paired with one of Villa Montefiori’s top

wines, their Aglianico Paoloni. Aglianico has a long history in the wine world. The Greeks brought this grape to the south of Italy 2,500 years ago.

Aglianico Paoloni is a 100% Aglianico aged in new French oak for 18 months with deep red garnet color and nose and palate of dark fruit, berries, and spice.

Dinner ended with Crème Brulee paired with Nebbiolo Paoloni. Great combo.

Being a chocolate lover, I was thinking that the Nebbiolo would be a great complement to a chocolate-based dessert as well, possibly decadent dark chocolate. Another great wine dinner series in the books, Sal and West End team. Bravo! More on Villa Montefiori at villamontefiori.mx.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) This could be the time to try soothing whatever bad feelings might be lingering ‘twixt and among colleagues, friends or family members. But be sure you do so without favoring any side.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) An idea is only an idea until you put that clever Bovine mind to work to develop it from concept to substance. This could lead to something rewarding, both emotionally and monetarily.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) The early part of the week could have some disconcerting moments, but approaching them with a calm, unruffled attitude goes a long way toward helping to get things nicely settled down.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Getting used to change continues to mark much of the week. But accepting what you have to do makes adapting that much easier. A welcome visitor could turn up sooner than expected.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) Learning how to live with a decision is a challenge, but one you Leos and Leonas could really enjoy. You’ll also be pleased to see your social life take that upsurge you’ve been hoping for.

TRIVIA TEST ANSWERS

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Your ability to maintain a balance between sense and sentiment once again helps you sort through apparently conflicting choices and ultimately arrive at the right decision.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Before you seek the advice of colleagues about a potential career move, you might be better off getting counsel from someone who won’t be affected by the choices you make.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) It can be a challenging week for some relationships if the normal give-and-take flow changes with one side doing most of the giving and the other the taking.

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) A new opportunity could bring with it much anticipation along with some anxiety. Take time to sort out your options as well as your emotional considerations.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Are you sure you have all the facts you need to let that matter move to another level? Don’t be rushed into a decision unless and until you feel it’s the right thing to do.

PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Pace yourself as you prepare to take on that more demanding project. Be careful not to let your energy reserves drain away. Take time to relax with people close to you.
