COVID-19: Data lacking on assisted living n Despite fears, local care homes relatively safe By Samantha Nelson

REGION — It’s no secret that adults over 60 are more vulnerable to COVID-19, especially when they have health conditions like lung or heart disease, diabetes and any other conditions that affect their immune system.

While many older people with existing health conditions choose to live in assisted living facilities, others fear that such facilities could put them at increased risk. While assisted living facilities have experienced their fair share of outbreaks, especially here in San Diego County, there isn’t as much data regarding COVID-19 outbreaks at assisted living facilities as there is regarding skilled nursing homes. One of San Diego

County’s worst breakouts happened at Elmcroft of La Mesa, an assisted living facility that had 18 cases among staff and 34 among residents. None of the staff members with COVID-19 died, but 14 of the residents did, making Elmcroft the county’s deadliest assisted living outbreak of COVID-19 so far. Vista Del Lago Memory Care in Escondido is another facility that has a high amount of cases. At least 12 staff members and 44 residents have had

COVID-19. There are 42 cases among residents considered active. So far, none of the residents or staff members have died from the disease, state data shows. According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, the spread of coronavirus has been “well documented” in connection to skilled nursing homes but comparatively little has been reported on COVID-19 among residents SEACREST VILLAGE resident Leon Freedman wears a mask TURN TO ASSISTED LIVING ON A14

Escondido opens outdoor fitness court By Tigist Layne

LOCAL MAINSTREET Associations are hosting Small Business Saturday, 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Nov. 28 along Coast Highway 101 in Encinitas, Leucadia and Cardiff. Photo via Facebook

Several Encinitas groups to host ‘shop local’ event By Caitlin Steinberg

ENCINITAS — Several MainStreet Associations will host their annual Small Business Saturday event on Nov. 28 along Coast Highway 101 in downtown Encinitas, Leucadia and Cardiff, encouraging residents to shop local and stay safe this holiday shopping season. Encinitas 101, Leucadia 101 and Cardiff 101 MainStreet associations, along with the Encinitas Chamber of Commerce, will hold this year's small business event from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m along the highway and at Cardiff Town Center. This year's small business event comes as the county’s recent purple tier status has once again forced shops and restaurants outdoors, facing an uncertain holiday retail season complicated by an economic recession and relentless pandemic. All three associations have adjusted their respective functions in accordance with public health orders, moving events outdoors, requiring mask compliance, as well as socially distancing any type of retail stands or food trucks. Irene Puyn, executive director of Encinitas 101, reiterated the importance of shopping small and local. “This holiday season, we want to emphasize the importance of supporting small businesses,” Puyn said. “By shopping small, you’re also supporting your town, city and neighborhood.” “Each community has big sales to highlight the artisans and local businesses that make our Encinitas communities so great,” Pyun said. “Leucadia 101 will be displaying window decals done by local artist Nikki Hess to show who will be participating in all the festivities that day. Cardiff 101 will be promoting a bingo card shopping game to put a fun twist on supporting local businesses. "Downtown Encinitas 101 will be hosting musicians along historic highway 101 to liven up the shopping weekend. Lastly, the Chamber of Commerce will be giving away gift cards to local businesses leading up to the event via their Instagram account.” Leucadia 101 Executive

Director Annika Walden recommends residents attend Leucadia 101’s event walk from south to north on Coast Highway 101, visiting shops along the way and following along with the L101’s Gift Guide. “Every business is doing something special, whether it’s a discount or in-store raffle,” Walden said. “We’re also going to be handing out surprise and delight items, including gift cards to local restaurants and retailers if anyone comes down to the Leucadia downtown district found wearing their masks.” Cardiff 101 organization will be hosting a bingo card event, encouraging residents to visit individual stores, purchase goods and inquire about discounts to complete their card in exchange for a limited edition Cardiff sticker. Alison Wielechowski, executive director of Cardiff 101, anticipates a large number of families that would’ve traveled out of the area for the holidays will now stay in town and hopefully attend the event. “Traditionally, it seems as if a lot of Cardiff residents leave for the holidays, however, we’re hoping this year that not only will people stay safe and stay local but they will consider shopping local,” Wielechowski said. Beyond Small Business Saturday, all three MainStreet Associations will be hosting various events to bring attention to smaller businesses through the holiday retail season, including Cardiff 101's 5k Virtual Donut Dash; Encinitas 101’s “EncinitUS Day,” a fundraiser encouraging local businesses to sell specially designed “EncinitUS” t-shirts with proceeds going to assist establishments in need; and Leucadia 101 will host a “Collective Introspection” Virtual Art Auction from December 4 to December 11. “Small businesses in Encinitas are the core of our community's vitality that enables our beach town to stay unique,” Puyn said, emphasizing the benefits of supporting local. “[These] businesses give back to the community so mindful spending is key this and every year!”

ESCONDIDO — North County’s first free outdoor fitness center is now open to in Escondido’s Mountain View Park as part of a nationwide initiative by the National Fitness Campaign (NFC) to build more accessible healthy infrastructure. The NFC is “a quality of life consulting firm that partners with cities, schools, corporations and design firms to fund and build outdoor Fitness Courts to improve the quality of life in America,” according to its website. The seven-station court allows visitors to work on their agility, core and bend, as well as focus on other activities like lunges, squats, pulls and pushes. A free mobile application is also available to help guide participants during their workout. The city is also currently looking for Fitness Court Ambassadors to partner with to offer free workout classes, challenges and workshops to residents who choose to participate. The project began in 2019 when the City Council accepted a grant from the NFC to fund the outdoor fitness center. The grant covered $150,000, the city’s Utilities Fund covered another almost $200,000 and the remaining costs will continue to be funded by sponsors and

Capital Improvement Program budgets. Danielle Lopez, assistant director of community services for Escondido, told The Coast News that the idea initially started when a member of the public reached out to the city wanting a facility of this type in one of Escondido’s parks. He suggested the NFC, and everything else fell into place. “The timing of this is great. Especially in such a unique time, these are places where people can go and safely get their exercise,” Lopez said. “There’s an app to track workouts or

compete with other people and it shows you where the other fitness courts are located. It’s free fitness and it’s good for all ages and all fitness levels.” She added that Escondido has also been designated as the first Model City in the region, which means five more Fitness Courts will be installed throughout Escondido. The next two parks will be located on the library campus and in Kit Carson Park in 2021. The City Council has already approved a Capital Improvement Project in FY 2020-21 for the next

two Fitness Courts. The debut of the court comes just days after San Diego was moved into the most restrictive “purple” tier of Gov. Newsom’s four-level matrix for governing business operations. The category restricts gyms and fitness facilities from operating indoors, forcing them to either move their operations outside or temporary close down.

Perkins takes top job at Carlsbad Boys & Girls Club By Steve Puterski

CARLSBAD — Two weeks ago, the Boys & Girls Club of Carlsbad transitioned to a new leader. Evan Perkins, who’s been with the club for eight years, was tapped as the new chief executive officer. He replaces Brad Holland. Perkins was hired eight years ago as a youth development professional and has steadily worked his way up the nonprofit’s hierarchy. He was recently promoted from his position as operations director. Now, he faces a significant challenge with the club as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The club has struggled financially and also with attendance, as it is operating between 25% to 30% due to health protocols set by the state and county. “Right now, it’s steering the ship out of this COVID crisis,” Perkins said. “I’m going to have more communication with our board directors and our executive committee as well as the community, community partners and donors.” The pandemic has hit the non-profit industry hard and the club is no exception, he said. Both locations in Carlsbad (Bressi and Carlsbad Village) shut down from March 13 through May 18. Also, the summer is the biggest draw for the club, Perkins said, with more than 600 members attending each day at both locations. During the summer,

he added, the club was operating at about 20%. The budget has also taken a hit, although the club netted nearly $450,000 during its annual October gala, Perkins said. “It’s definitely a challenging time as you’re trying to be safe as you can inside the facilities,” he explained, “while also trying to continue to not hemorrhage money on a monthly basis. It is a challenge and will continue to be a challenge.” Another part of the fiscal challenge has been the increase in doing business as the ratios of members to employees has inverted. Perkins said labor costs have skyrocketed, although the club is still committed to not turning kids away who cannot afford a membership. He said the club tries to look at the situation through the lens of parents and using creative solutions to still provide the services many families rely on. When at the club, though, the kids are required to wear masks, be socially distant, wash their hands and undergo wellness and temperature checks. Also, the club is thoroughly cleaned each night, Perkins said. Even with the new protocols in place, he said the club is still focused on keeping a fun environment and giving kids the ability to develop social skills. Keep-

ing the fun atmosphere, Perkins said, is arguably the most important part of the club. “It sent shockwaves, not just for adults, but our kids,” Perkins said of the

changes. “Understanding and communicating with them on what’s going on and being really clear. And trying to be consistent with how we operate is crucial to their success.”

Happy Thanksgiving

don’t think there’s ever been a more important Thanksgiving than this year. Now more than ever is a time for reflection, for sitting down and thinking about all the things for which we are grateful. I was grateful to sit down with my family this year, have a wonderful meal and just spend time with each other. It’s been a hectic year and we haven’t had enough opportunity to all sit down, talk about our lives and be together. I was grateful to talk to my extended family over Zoom, and hear about my brother’s fight against pancreatic cancer. I was grateful that even if we all couldn’t be together, we could see each other. No matter how or where you spent your Thanksgiving this year, continue to

I’m grateful for my experience in the United States Navy and for all of our Veterans and especially the active members of our military deployed over the holidays. I’m grateful for first responders and law enforcement personnel and their unwavering commitment to very difficult jobs.

I’m grateful for my 34 years as a pilot, and for all of the great people I flew and worked with along the way. I’m grateful for the people of San Diego’s North County, and their resilience and willingness to care for one another. I’m grateful to live in a country where we can be independently minded, actively debate issues and respectfully express differences of opinion. And I’m hopeful that those in need, those with any number of struggles, will find strength and support this holiday season. And, I’m grateful for my incredible wife and our family.

Winning isn’t everything: Losing candidates changed conversation

By Lisa Shaffer

want to express appreciation to the Encinitas candidates who were not successful in the recent election. Just by running, they changed the conversation, focused attention, and contributed to positive change. On November 17, “the Mayor and Council Members made a commitment to pursue the building of a 100% (or as close as possible) Affordable Housing Community in Encinitas,” as reported by Keys4Homes, an advocacy organization for affordable housing. While this might have happened anyway, I think some credit goes to recent candidates who made affordable housing a central theme of their campaigns. While there was disagreement about the validity and realism of the proposed solutions from the losing candidates, there was an unmistakable signal that the issue matters

to residents and no doubt that there is a strong desire to increase the available inventory of housing units for lower-income residents. The council in the past has appointed people with diverse views to the various commissions, especially the city's Planning Commission, and I hope that will continue. The more people who engage and contribute, the more the resulting policies and programs will reflect the broadest consensus in our community and bring out the best in all of us. Running for public office is a huge undertaking. There is an enormous emotional cost in addition to the financial and physical challenges of a campaign. With heightened tension and division at all levels of society, running for office required even more courage and thick skin this year. I appreciate anyone who is willing to put them-

selves into the public arena for a cause they believe in. It is important for residents to get involved, to learn about the issues, and to figure out where they stand. Make no mistake — this year’s election season had its downsides too. We are all worse off when there are false or misleading messages on signs or mailers, negative and downright nasty social media postings, and the increased involvement of non-local PACs. Candidates need to set the tone for their campaigns and encourage volunteers to uphold standards of civility and integrity. Perhaps the unfortunate tradition of negative campaigning in Encinitas can come to an end as we see the harm it leaves in its wake. Lisa Shaffer is a former Encinitas City Councilmember

he most annoying part of living in the myriad potential wildfire areas around California lately has been a series of PSPS’s (public safety power shutdowns) imposed by companies like Pacific Gas & Electric, Southern California Edison and San Diego Gas & Electric. The stoppages, sometimes lasting as long as three days, are plain acknowledgements from the companies that their equipment and their maintenance practices are unsafe, inadequate to protect individuals from harm and possible death. This renders service provided by the companies unreliable. Yet, no one seriously threatens the survival or monopolies of these companies, which admit they’ve killed upwards of 100 persons over the last three years, while not one of their executives has served a single minute in jail for their destructive decisions. The bulk of the admitted deaths came in the 2018 Camp Fire which incinerated the city of Paradise in Butte County. PG&E pleaded guilty this year to manslaughter charges for 85 deaths. There could have been more such guilty pleas in other places, but no district attorney outside Butte County has brought criminal charges against any of the utilities or their executives. Yes, there have been penalties. Most famously, PG&E went through bankruptcy and paid billions of dollars in cash and stock to a trust representing many of its victims. The company’s board of directors was cashiered and replaced. But some top executives escaped with gold parachutes worth millions of dollars to go along with their guilty

consciences. Now come two further authoritative condemnations of the companies, especially PG&E. In one, the ratepayer advocacy division of the state Public Utilities Commission recommended fining the company $167 million for its poor communication with customers about impending shutdowns aimed at preventing new fires. Said one division lawyer, “When a utility fails to provide hospitals, fire departments and people with medical conditions with adequate warning of its decision to execute a shutoff, it is endangering lives.” This doesn’t appear to bother PG&E, according to the Chicago-based law firm monitoring the company’s legally required attempts to make power lines and transformers safer. The monitor’s report noted that PG&E’s safety effort has been worse in 2020 than before. “The monitor team has not seen a meaningful improvement in the quality of work (on vegetation trimming),” said the report from the Kirkland & Ellis law firm. “On a per-mile basis, (we are) finding more missed trees in 2020 than… in…2019.” So PG&E is not only failing to tell key customers far enough in advance when power cutoffs are coming, it also has not notably increased safety, despite all its at-fault fires of the last four years. There is no such monitor for Edison or SDG&E, but Edison admitted its

power lines likely caused two large October blazes in Orange County. All of which leads some to believe it’s high time Gov. Gavin Newsom activates a law known as SB 350, which he signed June 30, authorizing the state to take over and/or force the selloff of parts of utility companies failing to discharge their duties. These companies have done precisely that. They cut off power when it suits them. They do not compensate victims of those shutoffs, customers sometimes paying for electricity they never get. So far, Newsom does not take seriously the notion of breaking up any utility, even PG&E. When this question arose during an October news conference, Newsom claimed PSPS notifications are improved. “It’s a different day,” he said. “But we do have the ability to take (PG&E) over. We now have oversight and safety committees.” He did not respond to the questions of why utilities should be allowed to keep deciding how and when to warn customers and when to do shutoffs. Nor did he respond to one customer who complained that “Every time I pay my electric bill, I feel like I’m helping a murderer.” Others are ready and waiting to take over parts of PG&E. The many relatively new publicly-owned community choice aggregation outfits around the state, for example, would love to take over power lines they now must rent. It’s time Newsom took this seriously. If he does not, he can expect his inaction to be used against him when he seeks reelection in 2022. Email Thomas Elias at tdelias@aol.com.

Carlsbad Unified School District approves plan to reopen Jan. 5

Church keeps indoor service, defying orders

By Steve Puterski

By Tigist Layne

REGION — A San Diego church with multiple locations throughout the region has said they will continue to hold indoor services despite receiving a cease-and-desist order from the county last week. Awaken Church has received two cease-anddesist orders since the pandemic began, once at its Balboa campus in July and the latest one Nov. 16 at the church’s Carlsbad location. The order came just a couple of days after San Diego was moved into the most restrictive “purple” tier of Gov. Gavin Newsom’s four-level matrix for governing business operations. Despite the county’s action against the church, however, Awaken says it will continue to hold indoor and online services. The church is even planning on holding a grand opening event Nov. 29 for its new San Marcos location at 1760 Descanso Ave. The church sent this statement to The Coast News: “Awaken Church will continue to offer the safest in-person & online services this weekend. “Our campuses will continue to be cleaned and sanitized in accordance with CDC standards. We have invested over $100,000 in state of the art ‘Polar Ionization units’ that kill 99.4% of pathogens and viruses in the air, making our church locations one of the ‘safest’ places to be in San Diego. “In keeping with our first amendment right we will continue to minister to those who are most greatly impacted by the COVID-19 lockdowns, namely those struggling with depression, anxiety, hopelessness suicidal thoughts and addiction. “It has been proven beyond any reasonable doubt that in times of crisis the light of the church, and the uplifting power of the gospel restores that much needed, lifesaving hope & faith that carries the human spirit through all trials & tribulations!” According to the county, if a cease-and-desist order is ignored, the next step would be a closure order. Then, law enforcement would get involved by giving citations with a $1,000 fine for each violation. San Marcos Mayor Rebecca Jones, who was originally supposed to lead the ribbon-cutting ceremony at the church’s grand opening event on Sunday, told The Coast News that she will no longer be participating because she will be out of town this weekend. “It’s a very difficult position right now,” Jones said. “While I’m sympathetic, I would never suggest that anyone not follow the county health orders because I follow them myself.”

San Dieguito Union gets pool estimate, funding not identified By Dan Brendel

ENCINITAS — The San Dieguito Union High School District trustees received initial cost estimates to build and operate an aquatics facility, which advocates have long sought, at their Nov. 19 meeting. A single mid-sized pool with 14 swim lanes, plus supporting machinery and facilities, could accommodate the district’s needs and would cost about $11 million to build, according to a study by Aquatic Design Group, a Carlsbad-based firm. The study represents only any early stage of research. The district hasn’t formally incorporated aquatics into its facilities master plans, let alone decided whether to build one or more pools, their location or size or how to pay for them. Funding sources could include: existing dollars, depending on where the board might prioritize aquatics in its existing slate of capital projects; a new bond measure succeeding Proposition AA, which voters approved in 2012 for $449 million and which has been 80% expended or contracted; $30 million pending from the state government; parent and community fundraising; joint use partnerships, such as with a nonprofit or municipal government. “There are no district pools to support our aquatic programs or to teach aquatic [physical education],” according to the San Dieguito Pool Feasibility Commit-

tee, a volunteer advocacy group. “The construction of pools was not included in the Prop AA plans.” “Since 2014 parents have expressed the importance of pools for schools,” resident Virginia Kofler told the school board last week. High school swim, dive and water polo teams ccurently practice and play games elsewhere — including at Carlsbad’s municipal Alga Norte Aquatic Center, the Solana Beach Boys and Girls Club, the Magdalena Ecke Family YMCA in Encinitas, Cathedral Catholic High School in San Diego, and UCSD’s Canyonview Aquatics Center. The San Dieguito High School District includes five middle schools and five high schools, serving some 13,000 students from Carlsbad, Encinitas, Solana Beach, Del Mar and Rancho Santa Fe. Certain other regional public and private schools have pools. After capital costs, if the school board were to decide a new facility should run as a full-day, fully staffed community pool, the facility would cost about $500,000 annually to operate, net of rents generated from non-school users. Operating costs would include lifeguards and a front desk receptionist, heating and utilities, chemicals, maintenance, etc. If the board were to decide to limit a new facility to high school use, with coaches and physical education teachers obviating the need for dedicated staff, an-

Teenager riding skateboard fatally struck by truck By City News Service

RAMONA — A teenage boy was fatally struck by a pickup truck while riding a skateboard on a residential road in the San Diego Country Estates neighborhood of Ramona, authorities said today. The fatality occurred around 7:20 p.m. Tuesday on Barona Mesa Road near La Plata Court, in a neighbor-

hood south of San Vicente Road, California Highway Patrol Officer Jeff Christy said. The driver stopped immediately and began rendering medical aid to the victim, the officer said. Medical personnel also responded, but the youth was pronounced dead at the scene. His name was withheld pending family notification.

nual operating costs would come to about $200,000. The San Dieguito Pool Feasibility Committee wants “at least two district pools, one in the north of the district, one in the south,” according to its web site. Though the pool development study assumes only one pool located at La Costa Canyon High School in Carlsbad, the district’s northernmost high school.

CARLSBAD — The Carlsbad Unified School District is moving forward with its reopening plans for students. The Board of Trustees voted, 4-1, to approve the Jan. 5 reopening for elementary, middle and high school students during its Nov. 18 meeting. Trustee Kathy Rallings voted against the reopening plans due to concerns over rising cases of COVID-19. Elementary students will return to school five days per week, while middle and high school students will be subject to a hybrid plan of in-person schooling two days per week and virtual classes the other three. Additionally, the district is increasing its pay and recruiting efforts for substitute teachers, according to Assistant Superintendent Rick Grove. The daily rate will increase to $150, while the long-term rate is now $160 per day, he added. “This bundled approach is to protect everybody,” Trustee Ray Pearson said. “I believe we are addressing the full safety and prevention of any transmission on the school campuses. This partnership is not going to work unless outside of campus if everybody really adheres to all the safety precautions.”

San Diego County recently was placed in the purple tier for COVID-19, which is the highest level in the state. The purple tier adds additional restrictions, although schools that have previously had reopening plans in place or already have students on campus may continue to operate under those plans. Superintendent Ben Churchill reported Carlsbad had a seven-day average of 5.1 cases, up 0.5 from the previous week. The city has reported 936 total cases. For weeks, some parents and teachers have been at odds over how to reopen. CUSD had planned to reopen this month, but those plans were pushed back as teachers railed against a lack of air filters and other safety equipment. However, the teacher’s union said if those measures were met, a Jan. 5 reopening would be acceptable. “I still do not see any outdoor learning spaces in these plans in order for social distancing,” Rallings said. “I also don’t see any plans to partner with the City of Carlsbad … and a pilot for some of these campuses to livestream. I’ve actually been in favor of opening five days a week, but I am not in favor of sacTURN TO CUSD ON A8

Solana Beach to continue renewal fee subsidy to businesses By Dan Brendel

SOLANA BEACH — At their annual review of municipal fees Nov. 18, the Solana Beach City Council unanimously waived business license renewal fees through 2021, but increased fees for short-term vacation rentals. To provide COVID relief, last spring council waived the $48 fee businesses pay to renew their certificates for 2020. It also reduced from $56 to $17 the fee to renew permits for operating short-term vacation rentals. As a result, the city cut its aggregate expected

revenues in those categories for FY 2020 by 56%, from $172,000 to $75,000, according to a May 6 budget report. Council had to decide whether to continue or alter these subsidies for next year before the city government sends out business certificate renewal notifications this month. Councilmembers opted to return the short-term vacation rental fee to $56 but to continue waiving the business license renewal fee, and also to defer a 0.3% inflation adjustment. “If we can afford this,

and I think that we can, I think that we need to support our businesses right now. It's a really tough time for people,” Mayor Jewel Edson said. The city’s many fees aim to break even on the cost of providing certain services by charging those services’ users. “The City established a policy for recovering the full costs reasonably borne for providing special services of a voluntary and limited nature, such that general taxes are not diverted from general services of a broad nature and there-

by utilized to subsidize unfairly and inequitably such special services,” according to an accompanying resolution. A 2018 fee study found the city at that time subsidized businesses and shortterm vacation rentals by charging too little for the administrative costs of processing their permits — to the tune of about $26,000 and $6,000 annually, respectively. COVID-19 hasn’t hurt all businesses equally. The $48 business license renewal fee represents “nominal” cost in

many cases, said Rod Greek, the city’s finance director. Earlier this year Governor Gavin Newson allowed businesses to defer payment of sales tax if necessary to weather lost revenues due to the pandemic. But “not a lot of businesses took advantage of that,” City Manager Greg Wade said. The construction and business services industries, as well as grocery and food stores, “have been doing very well,” Wade said. Whereas restaurants and certain retailers have been harder hit. Councilmembers dis-

cussed waiving the business license renewal fee only for the hardest-hit categories, or else allowing businesses to apply for case-by-case waivers. But they decided the juice wasn’t worth the squeeze. “It probably would cause more staff time than it would be worth to separate it between the businesses who are struggling and those that aren't,” Edson said. “A lot of places don't look at staff time as a cost, and it really is a cost,” Councilwoman Kristi Becker said.

Students talk city’s future with planners By Samantha Nelson

OCEANSIDE — City planners teamed up with high school students to discuss what the future of their city should look like. In late October, students from Oceanside and El Camino high schools joined a virtual meeting with the city’s planning department to share their ideas on land use, housing, transportation improvements and other development. The city is currently working on updating its General Plan, which outlines the future of the city for the next few decades. City’s typically update their General Plans every 15 to 20 years. Last year, the city implemented its first phase of the General Plan Update, which included adopting economic development and climate action elements as well as the city’s first Climate Action Plan. The city began working on its second phase earlier this year. As part of the second phase, the city launched a public outreach plan. Principal Planner Russ Cunningham first reached out to the Oceanside Unified School District with the hopes of finding younger voices to share their thoughts about what

they want for the city. Shannon Martin, who teaches a Civil Engineering and Architecture class as part of Oceanside High School’s Environmental Innovation Academy career pathway, chose a few of her students to participate. Other students from the high school’s environmental sustainability and Green Tech classes were also chosen. Cunningham asked students about housing, natural resources, community facilities, mobility and land use. He also explained how certain processes work, like how the city is mandated by the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) to come up with 5,500 dwelling units, most of which are expected to be affordable to lower-income households. Martin said her students were able to see how more than simply architecture went into planning a city. “I think it was more complex than they realized, but they were able to understand it better,” Martin said. Martin told her students that this discussion was a great opportunity for them to be valuable stakeholders for Oceanside. “They’re going to be the people who are influencing this community,” she said. Abigail Austin, a junior in the engineering and architecture pathways at Oceanside High School, said the panel gave her a “deeper understanding” issues like gentrification, and also gave her a chance to share her ideas with city leaders. “It makes me feel like we can share even more of our ideas in the future as we develop our knowledge from the classes we’re taking,” Austin said. Cunningham said he and the other planners have taken the student’s comments to heart. According to Cunningham, one theme that quickly emerged and became a focus in the discussion was the students’ concern reTURN TO STUDENTS ON A11

Carlsbad’s iconic smokestack coming down By Steve Puterski

CARLSBAD — An eyesore or landmark. Either way, deconstruction efforts are currently underway of an iconic 400-foot smokestack towering above the Encina Power Station nestled along the Carlsbad coastline. Additionally, the retired power plant, owned by NRG Energy and home to San Diego Gas & Electric's operations center, is slated to be completely torn down by September 2021 as part of an agreement between the energy company and the City of Carlsbad. The next steps for all parties involved, including SDG&E, are to figure out how to redevelop the property. As for the smokestack, NRG agreed in a 2014 settlement to remove the stack over safety concerns, according to NRG spokesperson Chris Rimmel. NRG owns most of the acreage on the parcel situated along Carlsbad Boulevard, while SDG&E owns the southern portion of the property consisting of approximately 12 acres along Cannon Road. “It’s their land and the agreement calls for them to work with the city,” said Carlsbad Deputy City Manager Gary Barberio. “They haven’t approached the city yet with the redevelopment process. They are starting to think that way now.” The property also includes the Carlsbad Ener-

gy Center, which houses a switching station owned by SDG&E, transitioning power from the 500-megawatt natural gas peaking plant sitting just to the north. SDG&E's plant came online in 2017 and can be activated in minutes to address power needs based on usage rates. The Encina facility, originally built in 1954 as San Diego County’s largest fossil-fuel (oil) power plant, was retired in 2018. In 2000, Encina transitioned the station from oil to natural gas. At its peak, the power plant had a capacity of 965 megawatts of power, meeting the needs of up to one million customers, according to NRG’s website. Today, the future of the property remains un-

determined while three entities have yet to begin formal discussions on how to proceed. Since the City of Carlsbad does not own any of the property, including Cannon Park, the three entities must abide by the agreement. The city leases the park from SDG&E and is responsible for its maintenance. Barberio said while discussions have yet to begin in earnest, NRG has stated it will engage in a robust public outreach campaign to determine the future of the property. But there are some challenges, Barberio said. Most notably among them is finding a suitable location for SDG&E's operations center. The facility employs about 125 employees,

including electric troubleshooters, gas emergency response crews and maintenance crews, according to Helen Gao, an SDG&E spokeswoman. Gao said this operating district serves nearly 250,000 customers. The area is bounded roughly by Camp Pendleton to the north, state Route 56/Pacific Highlands Ranch to the south, the coastline to the west and the eastern boundary a few miles west of Interstate 15. “We continue to work collaboratively with the City of Carlsbad and NRG to identify a solution that would meet the needs of all the key stakeholders,” Gao said. “Many factors need TURN TO SMOKESTACK ON A8

Encinitas City Council votes to revise 2018 Climate Action Plan ENCINITAS — In response to evolving state environmental legislation and positive new data, the Encinitas City Council unanimously voted to revise its Climate Action Plan (CAP) three years earlier than scheduled during a Nov. 18 meeting. The decision further helped solidify the city's regional leadership role in taking actionable steps to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions. The council also passed a draft ordinance regulating sober living homes, as well as accepted $300,000 in grant funding to begin drafting a plan to improve the El Camino Real corridor. In presenting to the council, city staff detailed amendments to the 2018 CAP, including measures supporting state decarbonization legislation, biking and pedestrian infrastructure, and paperless online permitting as well as the completion of the Active Transportation Plan Measure. According to the city, the purpose of the CAP is to “provide a comprehensive roadmap to address the challenges of climate change… by reduc[ing] greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from activities within the city while supporting the community in adapting to and improving its resilience to a changing climate.” Enacted in early 2018, the previous CAP was established with the expectation of an interim update

reflecting the impact of changing housing numbers on GHG emissions within the city. Based on recent SANDAG data, the city and the Energy Policy Initiatives Center learned the city’s expected 2030 GHG emissions have decreased with support from state, federal and city actions. Encinitas’ new goal is to reduce GHG emissions 44% by 2030, a 5% increase from the 2018 CAP projection. In addition, the revised CAP included limited new measures supporting the city’s positive environmental impact, including supporting decarbonization legislation; increased education on electric-based energy sources; the installation of pedestrian and biking infrastructure; a survey of pedestrian, cyclist and transit ridership; and paperless online permitting. During the meeting, Commissioner Jim Wang noted the gravity of the current climate situation, describing the amended CAP as “the kind of progress that we need to avoid a serious crisis.” “Let’s show other cities what [Encinitas] can and should do,” said Wang. The council also unanimously introduced a draft ordinance regulating group home and sober living operations, citing an increase in noise and traffic complaints from residential neighborhoods. The City of Encinitas does not currently have regulations for group homes, including sober living

homes, however, the proposed ordinance would require establishments to apply for a permit, instituting a series of regulations. Among other requirements, the ordinance necessitates “residential care facilities” to admit six or fewer persons in addition to one house manager, who must be present at the home on a 24-hour basis and is responsible for day-to-day operations. Each tenant is limited to one vehicle with permitted garage and street parking within 500 feet of the dwelling unit, must be actively participating in “legitimate recovery programs,” and commit to a written policy regarding the possession, use, and storage of alcohol, marijuana, or any non-prescription drugs. The draft ordinance drew sharp criticism during public comment. Sherry Daley, governmental affairs director of the California Consortium of Addiction Programs and Professionals, suggested the ordinance violated the rights of a person in recovery. “Could you do this to another group? Would you be allowed to say that LGBTQ people could only live in groups of six? Would you be able to do this to a group of blind people or veterans? There’s no difference, this is a group of protected people,” Daley said. Councilman Tony Kranz commented, “I have no interest in shutting these people down but I do think it’s important to provide the

ESCONDIDO — The Escondido City Council met on Wednesday, Nov. 18, and approved funding to build the John Masson Memorial Bike Park inside of Jesmond Dene Park. The council also heard from outgoing Councilmember Olga Diaz as she reflected on her three-term tenure on the council. The council approved using $271,303 in Prop 68 Per Capita grant funds to build the bike park, which will be named in honor of the councilmember who passed away in March. The park is in Masson’s district and near his home. Diaz became emotional

during the meeting as she remembered Masson and spoke of how appropriate it is to be honoring him with a project he’d be passionate about. “He was such a big part of the spirit of the city, and his work on skate spots and the bike park idea, these were his passions,” Diaz said. “I think he would be proud to know that we’re taking this action and making this investment.” Mayor Paul McNamara also spoke about Masson and emphasized his enthusiasm for the city. “He was our friend … his enthusiasm for Escondido and trying to move it

MiraCosta seeks racial proportionality By Dan Brendel

OCEANSIDE — Far more of MiraCosta College’s instructors and administrators are white compared with the school's student population, and vice versa for Hispanics, notwithstanding programs aimed at “diversity, equity and inclusion.” “There are some areas to improve on in terms of Latinx [Latino or Latina] faculty, administrators and staff,” said Vice President of Human Resources Charlie Ng at the trustees’ Nov. 19 meeting. “We are not reflecting nearly what our

student population is.” MiraCosta, a community college district with four campuses, serves some 10,000 students in North County. Governed by an elected board of seven trustees, it operated last year with an unrestricted General Fund revenue budget of some $130 million, 85% from property taxes. Consistently over the period 2015 to 2019, about one-fifth of faculty were Hispanic, some 20 percentage points lower than the student body share and a couple of points lower than the region, according to a

Not All Stroke Centers Are Created Equal Provided By Dr. Gene Ma, Chief Medical Officer, Tri-City Medical Center

“My dad had a stroke and he can’t speak but there’s nothing more that can be done.” These were the helpless words of a friend who called to share with me that his dad had lost valuable time wandering around his wholesale membership warehouse store because he had suddenly been unable to communicate. By the time he was taken to his local hospital, it was too late to treat him with a clot-busting medication often used in severe stroke cases. “Ask the doctor if there’s a thrombectomy capable stroke center in the region and if there is, request an immediate transfer,” I responded. Stroke care has evolved dramatically since I started practicing emergency medicine almost 25 years ago. What remains a constant, however, is that time is critical. Delays in seeking care can be catastrophic, as would have been the case here. I’ve witnessed time and again the miraculous recovery after a stroke victim arrives paralyzed on one side of the body and is treated with tissue plasminogen activator(tPA). For patients who seek care within 3 hours of a stroke, this life-altering, clot-busting medication helps open up a clogged artery in the brain responsible for loss of function. My friend’s experience impressed upon me how important it is for patients to recognize that stroke care no longer stops at 3 hours. Fortunately, for his dad, a regional Thrombectomy Capable Stroke Center was nearby. As the human brain is exquisitely intolerant of diminished oxygen flow from a stroke, he was expeditiously transferred to the regional facility where specialized doctors called neuro-interventional radiologists used a small artery to tunnel a catheter into the arteries in his brain and retrieved the blood clot.

Thanks to the skill of those specialists at that advanced stroke center, he recovered almost immediately and today, you would never know he was almost left with what would have been a disastrous, life-altering deficit. The data is irrefutable. People are waiting too long at home to seek emergency care when needed, for fear of COVID. We as emergency physicians are witnessing devastating strokes, heart attacks, infections, diabetic complications and many other preventable illnesses because of delays in seeking medical help during this pandemic. The reality is that COVID isn’t contracted in hospitals, but out in the community when we let down our guard(and our masks). Yet heart attacks and

strokes lack the courtesy to wait out the pandemic. Here’s what you can do to ensure the best possible outcomes for yourself and your family during these trying times: • Plan ahead by knowing where the closest Thrombectomy Capable Stroke Center is located to you and your loved ones. Tri-City Medical Center is a Thrombectomy Capable Stroke Center and is located at 4002 Vista Way in Oceanside. • Recognize the symptoms of a stroke with the acronym F.A.S.T.-Facial droop, Arm weakness, Speech difficulty, Time to call 911. • Know the symptoms of a heart attack: Chest discomfort with our without jaw or neck pain, shortness of breath, sweating, nausea and weakness.

to be taken into account to find a suitable relocation site for our North Coast operations center. For example, a site must have easy access in and out so our field crews can respond quickly to gas and electric emergencies, as well as customer service requests.” Barberio echoed those comments, saying the new location must be in a specific geographic area and suitable for grading, although neither the city nor SDG&E has found a suitable location. Barberior said SDG&E's operations center must remain in Carlsbad and west of El Camino Real, but all parties are motivated to find the energy hub a new home. Once a location is found, NRG will pay up to $22 million toward the construction of the new center and the city would take ownership of SDG&E’s current land at the power plant, including the park, according to Barberio. “The Encina site is

Ng told the board. California’s constitution, as amended in 1996, disallows “preferential treatment … on the basis of race, sex, color, ethnicity, or national origin in the operation of public employment, public education, or public contracting.” Californians overwhelmingly upheld this prohibition in the general election earlier this month, rejecting Proposition 16, which would’ve reinstated affirmative action, by a 20-point margin. “But we can actually create a diverse pool to hire from, and then from there we hire based on your knowledge, skills and abilities,” Ng said. The college has endeavored to remove “inadvertent hurdles” minorities may face in hiring, Superintendent Sunita Cooke said. For example, “we really weren't reimbursing folks for travel when they came to interviews,” cutting out those who can’t afford travel out of pocket. Members of the hiring committee must receive preliminary training, which aims in part to combat “implicit bias,” Ng said. “We are not screening people out of the candidate pools based upon their demographics,” MicraCosta spokeswoman Kristen Huyck said. “The racial diversity of our hiring pools does not change significantly TURN TO MIRACOSTA ON A15

Should the operations center remain at its current location, NRG would pay the city $10 million. As for the redevelopment, the land is zoned as visitor-commercial and open space, Barberio said. If the city acquired SDG&E’s land, Barberio believes the city and NRG could work together on a redevelopment plan. “NRG is motivated to find a new location because they don’t want a public works operations center next door,” Barberio said. “It would also possible assist with their redevelopment plan to access. Right now, they don’t have any frontage on Cannon Road.”

been hotly contested, featuring prominently in campaigns leading up to the recent city council election. While those in favor fear state-imposed penalties, those opposed say the North Commercial area is poorly suited for high-density housing and want to propose alternatives to the state government. A group of about 20 residents, spearheaded by Arnie Wiesel, set out to gather enough signatures to call a referendum, hoping to reverse the council’s decision. According to state law, the group needed at least 345 signatures by Wednesday, Nov. 18. They got 602, according to an unofficial count from city staffer Sarah Krietor as The Coast News goes to press. “The groundswell of support was strong and remarkable, especially given the rainy weekend after the election,” said Councilwoman Terry Gaasterland, who opposed the up-zoning. “The petition circulators chose to wait until after the election so the petition would be considered separately from a contentious and difficult election season.” Gay Hugo-Martinez, who went door-to-door with the referendum petition, told The Coast News she encountered few people who were hesitant to sign. “It’s the right of the voters to do this,” but “I think it puts us at greater risk,” said Councilman Dwight Worden, who supported the up-zoning. He doesn’t believe opponents have presented any viable alternative parcels that would satisfy the state’s requirements. Up-zoning opponents could also pursue a lawsuit, irrespective of the referendum. California law requires that “zoning ordinances shall be consistent with the General Plan of the county or city.” But in Del Mar, parties disagree about how the General Plan pertains to the North Commercial area. On the one hand, Worden says the General Plan is internally inconsistent, with one chapter (the Housing Element) saying the North Commercial area must include residential use, while another chapter (the Land Use element) doesn’t. On the other hand, Everett DeLano, the referendum-seekers’ land use attorney, says the Housing Element never actually created a residential use, but only promised the council would eventually amend the General Plan to include such a use — which the council never did. So, in DeLano’s view, the General Plan doesn’t allow residential use in the North Commercial area, period, rendering the Oct. 5 up-zoning invalid. A city’s General Plan serves as the “overarching framework” to which all specific land-use decisions must conform, in the same way that specific legislative acts may not conflict with a constitution, DeLano said.

NCTD ‘expeditiously’ pursues rail fencing By Dan Brendel

DEL MAR — While the Del Mar City Council at its Nov. 23 meeting formally prioritized maintaining public coastal access across and along blufftop railroad tracks, the transit district that owns the tracks maintains its intention to install fencing. Residents and others have long walked over the tracks, which carry commuters and freight, as a shortcut from residential cul-de-sacs to seaside bluffs and the beach, despite posted no-trespassing signs. The North County Transit District, NCTD, plans to build a chain-link fence along the right-of-way or the strip of ground adjacent to the tracks. The fence aims “to deter a large number of trespassers, to protect the public from the self-evident dangers,” according to an Aug. 28 federal legal action NCTD filed. Del Mar residents and city councilmembers have opposed NCTD’s unilateral move, calling for a collaborative approach with more public input. Some have called for additional designated pedestrian crossings instead of uninterrupted fencing. “More legal crossings and channeling people to them will absolutely make a difference,” Councilwoman Terry Gaasterland told the NCTD board last week. On Monday, the council unanimously adopted a statement of its priorities in response to NCTD’s fencing plan. While “public safety is the number one criterion,” number two is “the ability of the public to safely access the coast.” “Viewpoints, overlooks and access trails to and along the railroad right-ofway should be preserved,

augmented or replaced where feasible.” NCTD says it would support city efforts to plan for “alternative fencing” — something that allows greater access and looks nicer — and additional crossings, but not at NCTD’s expense. “NCTD is advancing the fencing project in an expeditious manner,” Executive Director Matthew Tucker said in a Nov. 16 letter. “NCTD will not engage in any discussions … to create coastal access or garner approval for installation of a fence.” Del Mar would “need to independently acquire cost estimates for construction of an alternative fence,” as well as “assume responsibility for maintenance and repair” and “liability associated with any design deviation or use of NCTD’s right-of-way.” “Installing new crossings is largely outside the purview of NCTD,” according to a recent NCTD risk reduction study. But “we’re totally supportive of the city prioritizing funding and imple-

menting a project and we stand ready to help the city go forth and ask for money” from funding agencies, Tucker said. “Del Mar bluffs is our number one location for trespassing,” NCTD Chief of Safety Sean Loofbourrow. In addition to public safety, NCTD worries about litigation. NCTD Senior Legal Counsel Jacob Gould cited what he called an “illustrative” 2017 lawsuit, filed after someone trying to take a selfie on the tracks died. “NCTD and BNSF [a railroad company] are still in this case … simply because of the ownership and control of operation on that railroad. That’s where the liability arises,” Gould said.

“There’s a lot of discussion about, ‘well, folks are assuming the risk,’ [but] the court does not see it that way.” He expects legal expenses will amount to $500,000, despite “no negligence” on NCTD or BNSF’s part. BNSF would absorb the cost under its shared use agreement with NCTD. Eight people have died on the tracks in Del Mar since 2014, and others have been hurt. An Amtrak train hit and seriously injured a man running on the tracks on July 18. The man didn’t hear the train coming because he wore earphones. Sheriff’s deputies have issued nearly 2,000 verbal warnings, but only 171 citations for trespassing.

Visitors walking on a trail at Hosp Grove Park in Carlsbad found the victim, whose name has not yet been made public, at Hosp Grove Park in Carlsbad late Monday morning. No suspects in the case have been identified, police said. Officers responded to the location and the investigation, closing nearby Monroe Street between Hosp Way and Marron Road while investigating the fatality. The San Diego County Medical Examiner will take possession of the body and ultimately determine the cause of death. Law enforcement investigators are seeking witnesses who may have seen or heard anything suspicious between 10 a.m. and noon in the area of Hosp Grove Trail East near the 2600 block of Monroe Street.

The regional importance of the LOSSAN coastal rail corridor Caltrans and SANDAG are in the first phase of construction of the North Coast Corridor (NCC) Program, a 40-year, $6 billion balanced set of highway, rail, environmental, and bike/pedestrian mobility and coastal access projects that span the coastal region from approximately State Route 52 (SR 52) in La Jolla to State Route 76 (SR 76) in Oceanside. Altogether, the NCC Program’s approach to multimodal improvements and environmental resource enhancements brings to life a comprehensive corridor vision that addresses gaps in the regional transportation network, improves mobility, increases coastal access, protects sensitive resources, strengthens the local and regional economy, and enhances quality of life. The NCC Program is one of the first regional and statewide programs to use this systems-based approach to address mobility and quality of life issues within a set

corridor, in such a holistic way. An integral part of this vision focuses on rail line infrastructure and system improvements to the Los Angeles-San Diego-San Luis Obispo (LOSSAN) rail corridor, an important economic lifeline for the San Diego region and crucial link for national and international commerce. The corridor is the second busiest intercity rail corridor in the nation, moving nearly 8 million passengers per year and approximately $1 billion worth of goods. It plays a vital role in our nation’s defense by providing rail access to the Pacific Fleet, a network of key military bases throughout San Diego County and the Port of San Diego. Additionally, the corridor provides access to the region’s 43-miles of beaches and recreational areas at designated station platforms and rail crossings. Caltrans and SANDAG are working in collaboration with North County Transit

District (NCTD) to double track nearly 94 percent of the 60-mile San Diego segment of the LOSSAN coastal rail corridor by 2035, and currently has 15 projects in various stages of planning, design, and construction from Orange County to Downtown San Diego. To date, close to 70 percent of

the San Diego segment has been double tracked. On Monday, November 16, the California Transportation Commission (CTC) staff recommended $2 billion in new projects statewide from Senate Bill 1 funds. In total, SANDAG has been recommended to receive over $155 million

Based on that input, city planners are going to look at different ways through urban design to create safer public spaces. Both Cunningham and Martin were impressed by what the students had to say. “I’m always so energized by interactions with young people,” Cunningham said. “I think it’s because they recognize the inevitability of change and recognize that change is either going to happen to them or they are going to shape that change in ways that work for them and their communities.” “They realize now that their voices matter, and that they really have some intelligent things to say,” Martin said.

garding personal safety and security in public spaces. “They indicated they were very interesting in availing themselves of our park facilities and are interested in utilizing alternative modes of transportation, but they often feel uncomfortable in places like transit stations,” Cunningham said. “Sometimes they even feel uncomfortable just walking down the streets, or in the city’s parks.” Cunningham said it was “sobering and a little disheartening” to hear these concerns come from the students, but that it was also important to hear.

for several key priority projects, including $106.4 million for the LOSSAN-SD Intermodal Improvement Program. These funds will support continued rail capacity and safety improvements to move freight and commuters more efficiently, quickly, and reliably, thereby strengthening the LOSSAN coastal rail corridor as a competitive transportation option when compared to driving. Approximately $36 million will go toward continued Del Mar Bluffs stabilization and reinforcement efforts by minimizing the chances of track damage due to natural bluff retreat and seismic events. The CTC is expected to vote on the funding at their December 2-3 meeting. Improving the rail corridor is necessary to support and facilitate smart growth throughout the NCC, as well as support local, regional, and state climate action goals for minimizing energy consumption, reduc-

ing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and reducing vehicle miles traveled (VMT). These efforts align with SANDAG’s vision for the 2021 Regional Plan, which reimagines how people and goods could move throughout the region in the 21st century. This vision is fundamentally shaped by five key strategies for mobility, collectively known as the 5 Big Moves—Complete Corridors, Transit Leap, Mobility Hubs, Flexible Fleets, and the Next OS. Achieving these goals and visions will provide a variety of travel choices and options to residents and visitors in the decades to come, and beyond transportation, will benefit the NCC’s valuable coastal resources and curtail the effects of global climate change and sea level rise by protecting sensitive habitat and open space areas from potential future development extending beyond the developed core of the NCC.

PURSUANT TO THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA EXECUTIVE ORDERS AND AMENDED COUNTY HEALTH ORDERS, MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC WILL ONLY BE ALLOWED TO PARTICIPATE IN MEETINGS ELECTRONICALLY. PUBLIC COMMENT PRIOR TO THE MEETING: to submit a comment in writing, email cityclerk@encinitasca. gov and include the agenda item number and/or title of the item in the subject line. If the comment is not related to an agenda item, indicate oral communication in the subject line. All e-mail comments received by 3:00 p.m. on the day of the meeting will be emailed to the city council members and made a part of the official record. Please note, e-mail comments received prior to the meeting will no longer be read at the meeting.

Each speaker is allowed three (3) minutes to address the City Council. Please be aware that the mayor has the authority to reduce equally each speaker’s time to accommodate a larger number of speakers. All comments are subject to the same rules as would otherwise govern speaker comments at the meeting. Speakers are asked to be respectful and courteous. Please address your comments to the City Council as a whole and avoid personal attacks against members of the public, elected officials, and city staff. To register to speak at this meeting, go to the Agenda for this meeting found on the City’s website at: https://encinitasca.gov/Government/Agendas-Webcasts. It is hereby given that the City Council will conduct a Public Hearing on Wednesday, December 9, 2020, at 6:00 p.m., to discuss the following item of the City of Encinitas: CASE NUMBER: PLCY-003713-2020 (ZA/SPA/LCPA – Density Bonus Amendments); APPLICANT: City of Encinitas; LOCATION: City-wide; PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Public Hearing to review and consider the introduction of City Council Ordinance No. 2020-09 titled “An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Encinitas, California, Adopting Amendments to Chapter 30.16.020(C) (Density Bonus Regulations) of the Encinitas Municipal Code.” On November 19, 2020 Planning Commission recommended approval with modifications to City Council. Proposed amendment incorporates changes made in State Law, modifications requested by the Planning Commission regarding gross density, application requirements, and location and size of affordable units; and incentives such as increased density to create affordable housing as an alternative to the density bonus provided for in Assembly Bill 2345 (AB 2345), which takes effect on January 1, 2021. Title 30 of the Municipal Code is a component of the Local Coastal Program (LCP); therefore, the LCP would also be amended as part of this application. ENVIRONMENTAL STATUS: The proposed amendments to the City’s Municipal Code are exempt from environmental review pursuant to General Rule, Section 15061(b)(3) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines since there would be no possibility of a significant effect on the environment. The ordinance being considered specifies how the City will comply with and implement State density bonus law, and adoption is required pursuant to Government Code Section 65915(a). The bonuses, incentives, and waivers permitted by the ordinance are allowed required by State law and the State law effective January 1, 2021, and this ordinance does not permit any bonuses, incentives, or waivers greater than those allowed by State law. The density bonus increase to 39 percent for moderate income and 41 percent for very low and low-income contained in Section 30.16.020 (c)(5)(f) of the Encinitas Municipal Code does not increase the number of units that may be constructed on any property, because under AB 2345, effective January 1, 2021, the maximum density bonus would be increased to 50 percent if the City does not adopt its own increased density program. This project constitutes an amendment to the Local Coastal Program (LCP). If the City Council approves the amendment, the proposed LCP amendment must be submitted to the California Coastal Commission for review and adoption. The LCP amendment will not become effective until after adoption by the California Coastal Commission. The City initially released a Notice of Availability, for a six-week public review period (May 1, 2020 through June 12, 2020). Due to modifications to the ordinance, the City had released a new Notice of Availability, which opens a six-week public review period (October 30, 2020 through December 11, 2020) and is required to elapse prior to any final action being taken by the City Council on the LCP Amendment request. For further information, please contact Nick Zornes, Planner IV at nzornes@encinitasca.gov or contact the Development Services Department at 760-633-2710, or by mail at 505 South Vulcan Avenue, Encinitas, CA 92024. The proposed ordinance is available for review on the City’s website at https://encinitasca.gov/I-Want-To/ Public-Notices/Development-Services-Public-Notices under “City Council Hearing Notices.” Under California Government Code Section 65009, if you challenge the proposed density bonus ordinance in court, you may be limited to raising only the issues you or someone else raised regarding the matter at the public hearing described in this notice or in written correspondence delivered to the City at, or prior to, the public hearing. 11/27/2020 CN 24985

and staff members in assisted living facilities. Skilled nursing homes certified by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services have federal COVID-19 reporting requirements. But other types of senior care facilities, such as assisted living centers, don’t have those same federal requirements. The California Department of Public Health regulates skilled nursing homes while the state’s Department of Social Services monitors assisted living facilities. On a weekly basis, the Department of Social Services’ Community Care Licensing Division updates the number of COVID-19 cases and deaths among residents and staff at assisted living facilities throughout the state. At least 433 facilities have had at least one case of COVID-19, 36 of them in San Diego County. Based on data collected from health department websites from 39 different states, the CDC determined by Oct. 15 that approximately 22% of assisted living facilities have had at least one COVID-19 case among residents or staff members. Approximately 21.2% of assisted living facility residents who had COVID-19 died compared to the general population’s 2.5% death rate in these states.

Luck, success or both? Perhaps one of the more fortunate facilities is the Leichtag Family Assisted Living Residence at Seacrest Village, a senior living community in Encinitas that offers independent living, assisted living, mem-

ory care and skilled nursing home options. According to state data, there have been less than 11 cases among both staff and residents and zero deaths at Leichtag. Pam Ferris, president and CEO of Seacrest Village, said only eight assisted living residents have had COVID-19 so far, all of which were asymptomatic. Approximately 13 staff members have contracted COVID-19, 12 of which were in assisted living. Ferris said Seacrest’s nursing home, the Dorothy & Joseph Goldberg Health Care Center, has been even more fortunate — none of the residents have contracted COVID-19 there. “We’re doing a lot of work to keep everybody safe,” Ferris said. Seacrest has emphasized the importance of wearing masks, washing hands and remaining socially distant throughout the pandemic. The facility also routinely tests its staff members and residents. Staff members have their temperatures checked

Connielou Caldwell of Leucadia, born July 5th, 1937, wasn’t perfect. Who is? But she would have given you or anyone the shirt off her back. She never knew a stranger and was always happy to chat as if she’d known you forever. Her uproarious stories were frankly legendary. She fiercely loved her neighbors and vise versa. And what a worker she was. Though she never graduated college or was formally

for each shift, and everyone is required to wear masks and various other personal protection equipment (PPE) provided by the Village. Ferris believes the community has been successful so far because of their facemask requirements for staff and residents. Since the pandemic, Seacrest has provided meals to staff members to encourage social distancing while keeping them fed. Seacrest has also been sending meals home to staff member families. “We’re trying to take care of our staff so they can take care of our residents,” Ferris said. Seacrest Village was one of the first senior living communities to stop in-person visits when the pandemic began. They also stopped volunteers from coming in. “On any given day we had hundreds of people preCOVID come to volunteer, visit or provide entertainment and education programs to residents,” Ferris said. “We were one of the first to stop, which helped us a lot in terms of how we

trained, she always had a job and put her all into it. Before retirement, Connielou was a teacher’s aide for special needs children at Torrey Pines High School. Helping her students make it through the day, was the delight of her life. God and church were her other devotion. Her Bible and knees were well-worn. She enjoyed participating in the Women’s Auxiliary of the American Legion Post 416 and was honored to serve as President and Chaplain for several years. She created beautiful prayer books containing devotional and other inspirational material. She was even happy to accept awards and recognition for her Auxiliary work. But perhaps Connielou’s greatest accomplishment was never giving up on family members, no matter how far we roamed. She was always there, helping, supporting, giving, and waiting with

started out.” Visitors and residents across from each other separated by a Plexiglass partition. During visits, residents and visitors were still required to wear facemasks. However, Seacrest recently stopped visits after San Diego County shifted into the purple tier of state COVID-19 restrictions. “It’s a lot of two steps forward, one step back,” Ferris said. “You really have to be mindful of what’s going on in the greater community to keep it from coming into our community.” Currently, the assisted living facility on Seacrest’s campus is in quarantine, which has stopped residents from attending small groups and in-person dining, which also recently reopened to residents on limited basis. Ferris said the community tries to keep a handle on any feelings of senior isolation or depression, especially now with residents in assisted living being confined to their apartments until the facility’s quarantine is over. “I told the staff that if they come across a resident in assisted living who feels depressed or needs something more that they need to let us know,” Ferris said. Many assisted living facilities are still open to admissions, including Seacrest Village. Despite the threat of COVID-19, Ferris believes communities like hers are still beneficial for seniors interested in moving in. “They’re not home alone, they’re getting tested regularly, they’re getting meals delivered or they’re going into the dining room,” Ferris said. “Life get’s a lot easier for people when they move into a senior community.”

open arms. And sooner or later, we always seemed to find our way home. Now at 83, Connielou Caldwell has found her way home. So I ask you, who needs perfection after all? She was adored by her husband, Charles K. Caldwell, of “Caldwell Antiques,” who passed on before her, and by all of her kids, grandkids and great grandkids. During this time of COVID, in leu of a traditional memorial service, the family will gather one bright, sunny day and celebrate her life by the ocean she loved. Did I mention she once doubled for Sophia Loren in a diving scene? She was chosen out of 200 other young women to swim underwater and gather sea sponges. That was our beautiful mother. Afterward, we’ll enjoy what Connielou talked about and looked forward to most every day—a wonderful meal. It will be perfect. Love you, Mom!

Psychologist lays out tools for struggling kids By Steve Puterski

REGION – Life during a pandemic has led to many changes, especially concerning children and they can struggle to adapt to a new way of life. Encinitas child psychologist and Cal State San Marcos adjunct professor Kristine Brady, who has a doctorate in clinical psychology from Virginia Tech, said she’s experiencing a rise in depression versus anxiety. She said at first, she expected to see more cases of anxiety, but from her clients to the available research, it has been depression kids are battling due to more isolation from the COVID-19 pandemic. However, she said more teenagers are calling for treatment from a psychologist, something Brady said she has never witnessed in her two decades-plus as a licensed therapist. “I was expecting to get a lot of anxiety, but I got the opposite,” she explained. “I’ve had at least five people call me saying their teenage boy has specifically asked for a therapist. I’ve never experienced that in my entire career.” Brady said those teenagers are at a vulnerable age as they are beginning to separate from the adults through going to school, with their friends and at home. But now, those opportunities are fewer because the teenagers are stuck at home, she said. It’s called individuate, which is the formation of a separate, distinct identity,

Brady said. The kids, and adults too, are losing daily social contact and affiliation. “It’s a basic drive we have, adults too,” she added. “They’re really suffering from not going out and having things to look forward to. I think people are getting very irritable and getting down.” Brady said another aspect is the lack of control from the pandemic. Teens can no longer just hop in their car, or meet with friends, on a whim. The result is isolating in their rooms, which adults can see either as their kids need time away or as a disrespectful act. If the latter, Brady said, the situation becomes an argument instead of support. As for what parents can do to help, she said, parents must understand their kids. They can practice patience, listen and not assume what’s happening in their kids’ lives. Also, Brady said parents must understand their child’s personality and if a child is active, suggesting more problem-solving activities. For those calmer kids, try more in-house activities; for sensitive kids, allow more time to respond; and more intense kids may need more time. “I’m not saying drop expectations,” she said. “But if you meet fire with fire you get an explosion. And parents need to modify their behaviors to meet their child’s needs. Kids do well with relatively flexible parents who set standards that are warm and flexible.”

GIVING THANKS

Thanksgiving Day brings to mind the daily blessings in our lives that we sometimes take for granted: a home that provides us with comfort, clothes to keep us warm, food to eat and share, the freedoms secured by our military men and women here and abroad, and our ability to help our neighbors and community. Most of all we are thankful for our family and friends ~ those treasured people who make our lives extra special in so many ways. Today we acknowledge all the blessings in our life, big and small, and we may forever be grateful for them all.

Only 2% of respondents to a 2019 “campus climate assessment” survey said they “personally had experienced exclusionary, intimidating, offensive, and/or hostile conduct,” which they believed was “based on ethnicity.” Opposition to Proposition 16’s bid to re-establish affirmative action in California didn’t necessarily break cleanly along color lines. Californians for Equal Rights, a nonprofit against the proposition, has Ward Connerly, an 81-year-old Black man and prominent anti-affirmative action advocate, as its president and Wenyuan Wu, a Chinese immigrant and a woman, as its executive director.

Oceanside gets $175K for Loma Alta Slough small talk

By City News Service

OCEANSIDE — The National Fish & Wildlife Foundation awarded Oceanside’s water utilities department a $175,000 grant to assist with the city’s Loma Alta Slough wetlands enhancement project, which was announced this week. The project is intended to restore and enhance approximately six acres of coastal wetland and upland habitat near Buccaneer Beach in south Oceanside. The award, a preliminary grant from the Foundation’s Coastal Resiliency Fund, will fund the final design of the project. Grants are scheduled to be finalized in early 2021 and the project is scheduled to begin construction in the summer of 2021. Features include more than 1,500 feet of new nature trails with educational signage and planned connections to nearby facilities. The project is being designed with a focus on improvements to wetland water quality, storm flow protection and wildlife habitat expansion. The project is currently in the preliminary design

phase and has incorporated community input through a robust public outreach process. “The foundation’s award marks another important milestone for the city’s Green Oceanside program in promoting environmental protection and awareness,” said Cari Dale, Oceanside’s water utilities director.

The award complements an existing planning grant from the State Coastal Conservancy and will fund the completion of engineering and permitting currently underway. “We are excited to work with the foundation and citizens of Oceanside to restore the ecological and communi-

ty value of the slough, as it’s an integral part of our local coastal wetland system,” said Justin Gamble, Oceanside senior environmental specialist. The National Fish & Wildlife Foundation's Coastal Resiliency Fund is a nationwide program that contributes towards projects

that reduce impacts from storms and rising sea levels on nearby communities while improving habitat quality and community engagement. The Loma Alta Slough Wetlands Enhancement Project was one of 46 projects awarded nationwide in the 2020 grant solicitation.

erhaps the Cooking Muse was fired up from all the major quarantine cooking that has been going on for the past nine months. Perhaps she was just weary of her usual devotees and wanted a challenge. Whichever the case, she decided to swing by my house this weekend and she was bursting with holiday spirit. The timing was perfect, as I have not been bursting with holiday spirit nor considered baking just for fun. I was downright astounded to wake up with an overwhelming urge to bake cookies. It is, however, an urge I never argue with. I was at the grocery store by 8 a.m. getting supplies, and by noon, I had whipped up and baked a batch of traditional chocolate chip cookies, then tried out a new, from-scratch oatmeal cranberry cookie recipe. And if you doubt that the Cooking Muse was paying very close attention, everything was baked to perfection. “Perfection” is a word rarely bandied about in my kitchen. We usually settle for “edible.” OK, I did burn just the last five-cookie batch, experimenting to pinpoint where in the oven things bake best. I see it as my way of letting the Cooking Muse know I am still humble. I also now know not to bake on the bottom shelf, should the muse ever drop by again. She wasn’t, apparently, content with just cookies, and kept me on a roll of slicing and sautéing mushTURN TO SMALL TALK ON B11

Unemployment rate falls to 7.7% in October By City News Service

REGION — The unemployment rate in the San Diego-Carlsbad Metropolitan Statistical Area dropped to 7.7% in October, a drop of 1.2% from September, according to figures released Nov. 20 by the state Employment Development Department. According to the EDD, total non-farm employment in San Diego County increased by 21,500 jobs month-over-month — from 1,386,600 to 1,408,100 — while farm employment contracted from 9,600 to 9,500. According to the San Diego Workforce Partnership, many of these represent typical seasonal hires. Adjusting for those typical monthly gains, last month’s seasonally adjusted advance was a more moderate 13,200. The unemployment rate at this time last year was 3%. The region lost 106,500 non-farm jobs and 400 agricultural jobs over the year. The region’s unemployment rate rose to 15% in May during the COVID-19 pandemic, according to EDD data, while data from the San Diego Association of Governments showed rates of nearly 30% unemployment in May. In September, the state’s unemployment rate dropped to 9% from 10.8% the previous month, and the nation’s decreased to 6.6% from 7.7%. Professional and business services led all industry sectors in month-overmonth job gains at 5,200. The majority of job gains were centered in professional, scientific and technical services — up 3,400 — while 1,000 jobs were posted in scientific, research and developmen-

tal services. Government jobs grew by 4,300, with 2,700 in local and 2,500 in state government gains. The federal government lost 900 jobs locally. Six other industries posted month-over-month job gains: Construction gained 4,100; educational and health services 3,700; leisure and hospitality 3,200; trade, transportation and utilities 900; financial activities 600; and information 100. “White collar, construction and many manufacturing workers are doing well, but people who used to work at the hotels, convention center or some part of tourism are struggling to hang on,” said Phil Blair, executive officer at Manpower West. “At 7.7%, San Diego’s unemployment rate contrasts to February’s 3.3%, when companies were scrambling to find workers.” Mining and logging employment levels re-

mained unchanged. The two industries to lose jobs in October were other services — down 400 — and manufacturing — down 200. Comparing year-over-

year, leisure and hospitality continue to top the list in jobs lost, with a total of 47,900 jobs lost since last October — 35,200 of which came in accommodation and food services.

The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 3250 SAN TOMAS DRIVE OCEANSIDE, CA 92056 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. Said sale will be held, but without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession, condition, or encumbrances, including fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust, to pay the remaining principal sums of the note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligation secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is: $381,180.05 If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. The beneficiary under said Deed of Trust heretofore executed and delivered to the undersigned a written Declaration of Default and Demand for Sale, and a written Notice of Default and Election to Sell. The undersigned or its predecessor caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where the real property is located. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (844) 4777869 or visit this Internet Web site WWW.STOXPOSTING. COM, using the file number assigned to this case 092822CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code.

Harness the power of affirmations

soul

on fire Susan Sullivan

am Grateful. I am Love. I am Perfect, Whole, and Complete. I am a Vessel of Love and Light. These are just a few of the affirmations I employ in the quest for my own enlightenment. Have you used affirmations as part of your daily spiritual practice? Affirmations are a significant part of the practice of positive thinking and self-empowerment. Having a positive mental attitude is a choice and adding affirmations is a powerful method to achieve success, peace, and abundance in life. Affirmations aren't a new concept by any stretch of the imagination. Since Sigmund Freud's popularizing of the subconscious mind's inner workings, motivational speakers and new thought leaders have been tapping into the idea that thoughts can and do create your reality. Entire spiritual communities were created under the auspices of that statement alone. Motivational speakers and healers dating back to the early 1990s like Florence Scovel Shinn, Napoleon Hill, Zig Ziglar, Andrew Carnegie. Religious and spiritual leaders such as Emmet Fox, Parmahansa Yogananda, Ernest Holmes and Charles Fillmore all impacted positive thinking and the use of affirmations to improve daily life. Modern self-help gurus, such as Louise Hay and Tony Robbins, and leaders in neuroscience including Alan Watts and Joe Dispenza, have all brought the message that we can create anything once we put our minds to it. Accepting that idea is one thing. Harnessing that idea and implementing it into bite-sized, proven scientific bits is a whole other process. That's what local area wellness advocate and long time yogini and healing arts practitioner Betsy Finkelhoo has created for the masses in her Power Affirmation Journal. This high-powered tool has zeroed in on the "how-to" of affirmations and pinpointed strategies to realize one's deepest desire and bring it into being. Devoted to helping others with personal growth, the culmination of her own profound breakthroughs on a unique path of healing and spiritual insights birthed this Power Affirmation Journal after years of invitro. “By efficiently using this Power Affirmation Journal as a tool in your daily spiritual practice, one can clean up their belief systems. It's a tool to go deeper inside yourself and into deeper levels of consciousness,” writes Finkelhoo. The subconscious mind is going to function with or

without input from you. May as well put some thought and energy behind it and commit to the practice of affirmations to ensure your desires are made manifest. Moreso, to define your wishes in the first place. Finkelhoo, the journal's creator, was also the founder of the popular high vibe Community Speaker Series that met at Eve before the pandemic. “By focusing attention on this practice, users become more aligned to their core values, have healthier relationships, and most of

all, live with a more positive outlook on life," Fineklhoo said. The journal aspires to take the user on a journey through seven different energy centers in your life, with a specific process within each area of focus. According to Finkelhoo, affirmations are a specific way of using words that uplift and inspire to create and infuse our thought patterns consciously. When used in conjunction with action and emotional empowerment, they have the power to help program and realign our be-

lief systems and ultimately with how we truly want to live. The use of The Power Affirmation Journal helps to harness the practice most efficiently. To learn more about Betsy's work, order your journal or sign up for Betsy's upcoming eightweek series beginning December 12, go to www.finkelhoo.com. These beautiful booklets also make a great gift if you are looking for meaningful giving. Every book sold plants a tree through the Eden Reforestation Projects affiliated with Betsy's passion project. Betsy Finkelhoo hopes to raise the planet's vibration by this offering. With more people using her divinely downloaded affirmation tool, it is possible to dissolve the divisive lines between us and create unity through the kindness we give ourselves when committing to this kind of daily selflove practice. When we can do this for ourselves, we can then convey this love to others. And that is living with a soul on fire.

SOUR POWER

Bill DeWitt, co-founder of California Wild Ales, talks making sour beer

Cheers! North County

our beer. Two words that don’t seem to go together, and yet there is always a sour beer or two in my fridge. They are delicious, but my brain still doesn’t always understand how they are beer, so I reached out to Bill DeWitt, co-founder of California Wild Ales, for clarification. They specialize in creating small-batch sour beers with both traditional and some pretty wild fruit ingredients like persimmon or French Melon. Warning: Science ahead. Cheers!: This doesn’t taste like beer! What makes a sour beer a “beer”? Bill, CWA: Sour beer begins like all beers do, as wort (brewed, but unfermented beer). When you make beer, you ferment the wort with any one of several different species of Saccharomyces yeast. These yeast consume the available sugars in wort to produce alcohol and carbon dioxide along with a range of flavor characteristics, but sour beers are primarily or partially fer-

mented with acid-producing bacteria like Lactobacillus or Pediococcus and wild yeast such as Brettanomyces. Hops, important in beer-making in general, inhibit the lactic acid bacteria that develop sourness in beer, so little to no hops are used when making sour beer. Cheers!: What makes a sour beer taste sour? Bill: Sour beers develop acidity through the process of fermentation, which can add a range of rich and subtle flavors. The primary bacteria strains responsible for making sour beers sour are Lactobacillus and Pediococcus. These organisms can be introduced to the brewing process in a variety of ways. Like yeast, the bacteria consume the available food and produce acid as a byproduct. The lactic acid that is produced gives the beer its sour flavor. This is the same bacteria that gives us the sour flavor we find in yogurt, sourdough bread, kimchi, and kombucha. Cheers!: Are there different kinds of sours? Bill, CWA: There are three main subcategories of sour beer production: mixed culture, spontaneous fermentation, and kettle sour. Here at California Wild

C SOUR BEERS typically pair well with rich cheeses, fatty meats and seafood, according to Bill DeWitt, co-founder of California Wild Ales. Photo via Facebook

Ales, we focus on mixed culture, but we have been creating spontaneously fermented beers for the past few years. “(Mixed culture) style of sour beers … is richer and more complex tasting due to a vivarium of microorganisms added at the beginning of fermentation. “These beers ferment and develop for anywhere from a few months to a few years. This style of sour beer is often aged in oak is referred to as ‘barrel-aged sour ale.’ “(Spontaneous fermentation) is where the magic of brewing first began. These beers are the rarest and most complex tasting and they continue age-old brewing practices from before

brewers even knew that yeast and bacteria were responsible for fermentation. “The ‘magic’ begins the moment when yeast and bacteria come in contact with the liquid, or wort. Whatever organisms happen to be in the air or on the fruit is what begins the process of fermentation. “Kettle sours, also known as ‘Quick Sours,’ these beers undergo an initial fermentation with Lactobacillus, a starter used to make yogurt, before being pasteurized and then fermented. “The result is a quick, inexpensive sour beer that is simple and refreshing. The most commonly encountered kettle sours are Berliner Weisse and Gose.” If you want to try one of California Wild Ale’s sour beers you can order online, and pick up a few bottles for your upcoming holiday feasts from their Sorrento Valley tasting room.

They have more than 20 different flavors to choose from, and according to Bill, “These beers pair perfectly with rich holiday feasts. The acidity of sour beer does a great job of cutting through rich and fatty foods like stinky cheeses or fatty meats like Ribeye. The lemony tartness also pairs beautifully with seafood.” Be sure to check out the recent episode of the Cheers! North County podcast featuring my conversation with Brandon Hernandez, founder of San Diego Beer News, and Cody Thompson, founder of Beer Night in San Diego, about their new collaboration. New interviews drop every other Friday. Be sure to follow Cheers! North County on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Got an interesting story about your drinking adventures? Reach out! I want to hear it.

hateau Montelena is one of the legendary wineries founded in the late 1800s in one of the most iconic wine regions in the world, Napa Valley. Specifically, the winery is in Calistoga at the foot of Mount Saint Helena. Senior Editor Frank and I had the pleasure of attending a Chateau Montelena Wine Dinner at Sal Ercolano’s West End Bar & Kitchen in Del Mar narrated by Young’s Market John Parker this past week. A bit more on history before embarking on dinner. Chateau Montelena was established in 1882 on 200 acres by Alfred Tubbs, who had a lucrative rope business in the gold mining days. One of the most significant structures on site is the Chateau made of all stone and brick built under Tubbs. Before Prohibition, Montelena was the seventh-largest winery in Napa Valley. In 1958, Tubbs sold the property to Yort and Jeanie Frank, as a retirement home. The Franks created a Chinese style garden in the style of their homeland along with creating Jade Lake. Today wine club members still enjoy both on property features. In 1972, Jim Barrett purchased the property from the Franks with the goal of renovating the dilapidated vineyard to be a Mouton in California resembling France’s Chateau Mouton Rothschild. Barrett’s dream came true in 1976 during the Judgment of Paris when Chateau Montelena’s 1973 Chardonnay created by master winemaker Mike Grgich won first place. Several years later, Grgich went on to create his own winery and vineyard. Barrett’s son Bo took charge as the winemaker. Today Bo is the CEO of Montelena with Matt Crafton as the winemaker. Part of the property of Chateau Montelena is their extensive wine caves providing perfect temperatures for maintaining large amounts of library wines. For example, at the dinner, library bottles of 1.5liter Cabernet Sauvignon as old as 2003 were available for purchase. The 1.5l magnums are the perfect vessel for longterm storage due to the TURN TO TASTE OF WINE ON B10

25 culinary delights to be thankful for this Thanksgiving

will be solo this Thanksgiving due to the fact that Michigan is not a great place to be right now and my sizable family is all doing their own thing anyway. I’m cool with that actually and I’ve decided to focus on some of the positives from my Lick the Plate adventures this year. That and the fact that the Detroit Lions are not mathematically eliminated from the playoffs for their traditional Thanksgiving game, so I have that false hope that will have me tuning in. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not delusional, but, hey, a Lions fan can dream. Anyway, 25 seemed like a good number to work with, though there were a lot more options for this list than that. I’ll start with finally having a serious New York City style slice and another solid meatball sub in Encinitas at Mr. Moto Pizza. Just down the block is another new addition that has made me appreciate doughnuts again, especially when they are made to order and as creative as those at Broad Street Dough Co. in the Lumberyard in Encinitas. Heading up Coast Highway 101 a few blocks is a place that I am very thankful is still around, Raul’s Shack. It is a slice of old school cool on a corner that is not so old school anymore … and their chicken soup is right up there with the best around. Gelato 101 right next door is a fairly recent discovery and I’ve been making the trip there for dessert on a regular basis. Another repeat inclusion on the list is the Leucadia Farmers Market. I just love this place and had the pleasure of being there during a full-on rainy Sunday recently. Thanks to market manager Ron LaChance for staying open that day and giving us Midwesterners who actually love rain a day to walk through your fabulous market in it. A new discovery in the Farmers Market and one I’m definitely thankful for is Brodino Bone Broth. I have to have my voice sounding good on a regular basis and have found that heating up a cup of this prior to recording gets it sounding really good, even if it is 5 a.m. All

lick the plate david boylan you singers and voice people out there should take note of this — and they claim all kinds of other health benefits. One more farmers market discovery and that’s it, but there is a nonprofit called The Compost Group that creates healthy, vibrant soil from your food scraps — and they pick it up! More on this organization in a future column. I’m thankful for Juanita’s veggie burritos, fish tacos, and calendars on a regular basis still. I think I’m a little too thankful for Valentina as they are luring me in way too often, along with their sibling restaurant Moto Deli up the street. And any thankful list made this time of year would be incomplete without the chicken soup from La Especial Norte. It has healing powers, folks. Thankful for Pandora Pizza and their fun deck that was already in place and is a perfect place to stop by for pizza, salad and a glass of wine while people and car watching at busy intersection of Leucadia Boulevard and Highway 101. Note to Pandora: Would be fabulous if you included your lunch sandwiches on your evening menu, just saying. I’m thankful that I revisited Regal Seagull recently and rediscovered their brats and cheese curds. Plus, it’s just a great place to drink beer and eat sausage. This next one is non-food-related but I just had the opportunity to utilize the Corner Frame Shop in Encinitas, which salvaged an old photograph and framed it beautifully. It’s just such a treat to have such an old-school frame shop that employs framing professionals who really take pride in what they do. The French Corner in Encinitas is another rediscovery and I’ve been back weekly since for their Le Jambon Fromage Sandwich. This simple French

staple that consists of a nice baguette, French ham, Gruyere cheese, French pickles cornichons and butter transports me back every time to France, where I discovered these delights. And of course, I’m so thankful for the Chop Stop on El Camino Real providing me with my favorite new chopped salads for lunch at least a couple times per week. I’m thankful that Chin’s has a Carlsbad location now, more on that in upcoming column. Thankful that The Daily News Café has had

such a long run and is still going strong. Le Citron in Oceanside has made me thankful that Gilles Knafo and Francois Pantanchon are back together again re-creating their Leucadia hospitality in a cool new Oceanside location. And speaking of Oceanside, let’s add Switchboard to the list for their innovative twists on Hawaiian classics. Revolution Roasters coffee, also in Oceanside, will never leave my list. I think it’s the best locally roasted coffee going and when I want to splurge on beans, their Holy

Goat is my pick. I’ll wrap this up on the far northern reaches of Oceanside where my day job takes me to Pedro’s Fish Tacos a few miles east of I-5 on the 76. Their fish burrito is a beauty and it’s not oversized so it can be handled at lunch without inducing a food coma. In that same area is a joint called Pho House, which provides me with lunch and dinner with just one order of their Rare Steak Pho that words can hardly describe. And that rare steak cooks right up in the hot broth.

And there you have it. I’m sure I’m not the only one flying solo this Thanksgiving so I’m not feeling too sorry for myself. I picked up a pre-cooked turkey breast from Trader Joe’s and will whip up some stuffing and mashed potatoes along with cranberry sauce and some Beaujolais Nouveau to go with it. All that was purchased primarily for the following couple of days’ turkey sandwiches on Wonder Bread. Let’s give thanks for what we have this year and make the most of it.

Chef Noe prepared an outstanding five-course meal that started with chef bites paired with a 2019 Potter Valley Riesling. The off-dry nature of the Riesling was a great wine to start off the dinner.

Honey Pork Tenderloin with mashed potatoes and perfectly sauteed French beans served with a Serrano Beurre blanc sauce along with a 2015 Napa Valley Zinfandel. With 4 years of drought going into 2015, this was a challenging year for winemakers. However, even with the higher alcohol due to the drought, the Zin was balanced and not over-extracted. It had a nice mid-palate that stripped the richness of the spicy, rich cream sauce making it sympatico with this course. The fourth and main course featured Veal Osso Bucco over wild mushroom risotto served with bone al-

lowing guests to dig out the flavorful bone marrow. The 2017 Napa Valley Cab Sauvignon was an easy choice for this course. The 79% Cab, 21% Merlot blend had cocoa and fig on the nose with plum and dried fruit on the palate. The minerality was a great surprise in this young Cab. Dinner concluded with Chef Noe’s Chocolate Mousse and Quinta do Noval Ruby Porto that made the mousse decadent! Note, the Quinta Porto is a non-vintage Ruby Port meaning it can be stored for weeks compared to vintage ports created using an oxidated process requiring one to consume the port within a few days for best flavors.

Surfing legends revisited in audio gems waterspot

ton as tales of waves, some of which were ridden more than half a century ago on surfboards that have long since perished, rise from the garbage dump of surf history. Notably missing from my collection are tales I recorded in the early ’80s of Chris O’Rourke and a mid’70s interview with Dale Velzy. While I deeply wish I had those tapes, the memories of the voices of these surfing icons are as fresh as if they were recorded this afternoon. O’Rourke was thin and pale, recovering from brain surgery and several rounds of chemotherapy when I pressed record. He had only recently been diagnosed with Hodgkin’s disease, a malady that would eventually take his life. Before that, he had been widely considered California’s best surfer. Without sparing any of the agony and ecstasy of his life, he told of his rapid competitive rise and faster fall. He battled back to again become a brilliant surfer. He was a fierce fighter and, eventually, a close friend. I had known Velzy

leaning the garage may be a reward unto itself for some, but for me, it is drudgery interrupted on occasion by sheer boredom. Worthy distractions like the boxes of surf magazines that dredge up memories of my 60 years of surfing tempt me to peek inside. But I dare not crack their faded covers for fear of drowning in nostalgia’s tears and the idea that nobody would find me until the spring thaw. Opening a plastic tub I am greeted by a foot-high stack of plastic cassettes and a pristine Sony Walkman. Inside the Walkman is a tape of surfing legend Phil Edwards that I recorded over two and a half decades ago. I optimistically press the button, but the 25-yearold batteries are dead. Go figure. An hour later I am glued to the cement floor, shuffling through over 100 hours of surf history. Off to the corner store for AA batteries. Once installed, the Walkman clearly plays Phil’s voice and I am transported for the next 90 minutes. The garage will have to wait. Other treasures include tapes of Dale Velzy, Rabbit Kekai, Margo Godfrey Oberg, Joyce Hoffman, Paul Strauch and Jericho Poplar. Each of them come to life at the push of a but-

since the early ’60s when he opened his surf shop on Coast Highway in Newport Beach under the name Dale. He had been forced to sell the Velzy name, which he was famous for, to pay back taxes. Velzy was a surfer and a cowboy whose twin passions were riding waves and horses. He wasn’t making many surfboards when I spoke with him and was living in Costa Mesa. His goal, he said, was to leave town and move to Tucson, Arizona, where he could pursue his wild-west dreams. Velzy had been a top surfer and board builder in the ’40s and ’50s. His boards were among the best on the coast, and many of his inventions from the ’60s and earlier remain relevant today: The 7’11”, the Bump, the winger, the no nose and concave noserider, each of which launched their revolutions in the surf industry, were all made by Dale years before the rest of the surfing world caught on. If my garage is messier than usual please forgive me. Some old friends are calling me.
