State: Encinitas needs to revise housing plan
RULER OF THE ROOST
By Dan Brendel
ENCINITAS — The state says Encinitas must revise its proposed affordable housing plan by estimating more plausible site development capacities and modifying its process of zoning-by-referendum. The revisions “are necessary to bring the city’s draft Housing Element into compliance with [state law],” according to an Aug. 27 letter to the city from the state’s Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). Cities must regularly update the Housing Element (or chapter) of their General Plans, ostensibly to enable private sector housing production to satisfy forecasted demand, affordably, at all incomes. Encinitas submitted its 2021-2029 update in June for the state’s review. In its letter, “HCD cautions the city on its approach to estimating realistic capacity on sites identified to accommodate the city’s lower-income [housing target].” The city’s plan assumes developers would build only lower-income units on 15 parcels. Yet, as The Coast New previously reported, sites with pending development proposals would yield only about one-quarter of their forecasted unit capacities as affordable. At that rate, the city’s plan would generate about half its target. To make up the deficit, Encinitas would likely need to “up-zone” additional parcels to allow more density — namely, bigger multi-family TURN TO HOUSING ON A18

Encinitas 4 Equality opens brick-and-mortar studio By Caitlin Steinberg
ENCINITAS — The mood was light and hopeful on September 13 as volunteers, local vendors and supporters of Encinitas 4 Equality (E4E) celebrated the opening of the groups’ first brick-and-mortar location. The E4E storefront and studio serves as an office, community gathering space and boutique selling 13 Black artists' and vendors’ contributions. E4E Director Mali Woods-Drake described Sunday’s event as one of happiness and hope. “Sunday’s event was LOCAL ARTIST Mischele Salvant has several original art piec- our soft launch and volunes available for purchase in Encinitas 4 Equality’s new loca- teer appreciation event as tion on Coast Highway 101 in Encinitas.

Oceanside program loans down payments to buyers By Samantha Nelson
OCEANSIDE — A new pilot program will help lowto moderate-income households buy homes in the city. Oceanside City Council recently approved the Affordable Market Homebuyer Assistance Pilot Program at its Sept. 9 meeting. The program targets markets of families or individuals from low- to moderate-incomes up to 115% of the region’s median household income. An applicant would receive a loan of 20% through

the program to be used as a down payment for a house, which according to staff will make the applicant a competitive buyer in the current market. The program limits purchase prices of homes to $600,000 for a single-family detached unit, and $450,000 for a condominium, townhome or twin home. To fund the pilot program, $360,000 of inclusionary housing in-lieu fees will be used. In-lieu fees are collected by the city from developers to provide housing opportunities for low- or moderate-income households anywhere in the city. Councilmember Christopher Rodriguez felt that amount was not enough and requested that amount
be bumped up to $1 million. “This is going to be huge for our city,” Rodriguez said. “We need at least a million to make this work.” The other council members felt that the $360,000 was a good starting place for a pilot program and elected to keep it that way. Council approved the program 4-1, with only Councilmember Ryan Keim opposed. Keim said though he believes the program has great potential, he is concerned about the city’s various housing strategies as separate items rather than as one comprehensive item. During the same evening, the Council allowed staff to move forward with a request for proposals (RFP)/notice of available funding (NOFA) to focus on a housing strategy for the city’s homeless. This strategy could include creating temporary shelters, bridge housing, vouchers, care coordination, permanent supportive housing and homelessness prevention. The housing strategy also includes a Housing Commission recommendation that no more than $500,000 of in-lieu funds be used for homeless sheltering property or infrastructure. Keim opposed both items because they weren’t together as part of one comprehensive housing strategy. “I can picture (the pilot program) as part a comprehensive plan,” Keim said. Prior to the approval of both the housing strategy and the affordable housing pilot program, the inclusionary in-lieu fund had an available balance of approximately $8 million.
Carlsbad City Council updated on state COVID-19 eviction laws By Steve Puterski
CARLSBAD — Evictions are a looming issue for both residents and businesses. During its Sept. 15 meeting, the City Council took a report from Deputy City Attorney Cindy McMahon on upcoming state and federal timelines and deadlines for potential evictions due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Gov. Gavin Newsom signed an executive order on Apr. 7 to allow for rental deferments, which is set to expire on Sept. 30. The order allows for the temporary suspension for nonpayment of rent, although tenants must notify their landlord within 10 days, provide verification for income or revenue decreases, why they cannot pay rent, which must be related to the pandemic, McMahon said. However, the state legislature passed Assembly Bill 3088 earlier this year, which gives tenants unable to pay rent deferments from Sept. 1 through Jan. 31, 2021. Even so, tenants must pay at least 25% of rent by Jan. 31 to avoid eviction and provide documentation related to COVID-19, McMahon said. According to the law, she added, tenants must provide a declaration of financial distress due to COVID-19. Additionally, the law does not relieve obligation for unpaid rent, while also not providing
any repayment or grace period and limits local established repayment. McMahon said on March 1, 2021, small claims courts open. “It effectively reforms those local efforts and cannot start before Mar. 1, 2021,” she said. “Evictions for nonfinancial reasons, such as nuisance, may resume on Oct. 1.” A motion by Councilwoman Cori Schumacher failed, 2 to2, which was brought forward to allow businesses an extension on the repayment term from three months to six months for permit or rent. David Graham, Carlsbad’s chief innovation officer, said the city has

received about two dozen contacts regarding the moratorium and mediation requests stemming from eviction disputes. Regardless, he briefed the council on other initiatives to keep businesses open, employees working and income flowing. The city approved its Economic Recovery Revitalization Initiative earlier this year allowing for $4 million in small business loans with an additional $1 million for marketing and other logistics. The city, along with the Carlsbad Village Association, Carlsbad Chamber of Commerce and Visit Carlsbad, launched its Gift
Carlsbad shop local gift card program. Also, the city has enacted a temporary suspension of development standards, Graham said. Jeff Murphy, director of community development, said he’s received interest from a company looking to conduct COVID-19 testing in the parking lot of The Shoppes at Carlsbad. The city owns the parking lot. Additionally, the city is allowing expanded business operations on the parking lot, has suspended the permit time period, private property permit to indemnify the city and also require insurance, which was approved by the council.

Letters to the Editor
Save the Park: Drop the lawsuit
A
s a former Cardiff student and a 25year Cardiff teacher, I find it hard to continue to stay silent about the ongoing lawsuits against Cardiff School by a small handful of neighbors. I’m curious where the people behind Save the Park were almost 20 years ago, when the science lab and student bathrooms were installed within the “park” boundary. But then again, those changes to the “park” didn’t affect the views of some neighbors. Although I hated to see my childhood school campus change, those who care know that the classrooms were outdated — windows didn’t open, no AC, roofs leaked, and while before the 1990s, having the public walk through campus on Election Day may have provided an opportunity for a civics lesson, in the gener-
ation of routine school lockdown drills, that has felt much more dangerous in recent years. I am sure that my childhood principal, Mr. Berkich, would have wanted the students of Cardiff to have the best education possible, in perpetuity. But in the 21st century, he wouldn’t expect them to be learning on Apple IIe’s with worksheets printed on Ditto machines (spirit duplicator) or dot matrix printers. It’s unimaginable that a group of neighbors would settle a lawsuit with a school district and accept a half-million dollars just to turn around 3 weeks later to sue again! When the needs of our community evolve to the point that the letter of the law and the spirit of the law no longer are one in the same, it forces us to ask what is morally right?
Should the students and families of Cardiff have safe access to student drop-off, pick-up, and parking? Should they have a playground that can be safely accessed and supervised? Should they have a school auditorium that can accommodate the entire student body safely? Or should they get to keep the exact playground that was dedicated to honor a principal several generations before them? Save the Park, please look beyond your view. Drop the lawsuit and stop punishing current and future students, their families, the teachers and staff, the taxpayers, and the community as a whole for something that none of them had any control over. Christa Stone Encinitas
We need a carbon bill to reduce emissions “The United States should establish a price on carbon. It must be fair, economy-wide, and effective in reducing emissions consistent with the Paris Agreement. This is the single most important step to manage climate risk and drive the appropriate allocation of capital.” This is the “fundamental finding” of a report issued by the US government’s Commodity Futures
Trading Commission. This report was authored by representatives of environmental organizations, oil companies, financial institutions, academia, and agriculture. The Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividend Act, a carbon pricing bill that is fair, economy-wide, and effective in reducing emissions has already been introduced in the US House of Representatives.
It assesses a pollution fee on all fossil fuels, so their price reflects their true cost, making clean energy sources more competitive. The money collected is returned equally to the American public, compensating us for the increase in fuel costs. Please support this bill. Larry Peranich San Diego
Your action is imperative to end climate change Recent news and press coverage of the fires show how horrific events can become the opportunity to act. We see that sometimes one event, or a series of events, can start a movement that has the potential to bring about real change. And so it may be with the fires in the West. Will there be enough
suffering, enough loss of lives and property, enough economic damage, enough outrage, enough “enough is enough” to spark a massive movement? Action is imperative. We must get to work, continue our work and remain hopeful. We need to ramp up our efforts as this may finally be the time when pub-
lic opinion, and therefore the actions of our representatives, changes. Please consider joining a group, like Citizens Climate Lobby or others, that work tirelessly and effectively toward ending climate change. Susan Kobara Carlsbad
n August 7th the last of the spent nuclear fuel storage canisters was lowered inside a concrete and steel bunker at the site. Over the next decade the rest of the site, including the domes, will come down. But the bunker will stay until there is new federal policy that can move the spent fuel. Over the years there has been vehement disagreement about San Onofre, but we hope there is one topic on which everyone agrees: the spent fuel must be removed. As officers of the San Onofre Community Engagement Panel (CEP), a volunteer organization tasked with helping improve communications between SCE and the local communities, we have been on the front lines of these debates. We convene regular meetings – all open to the public, with video documentation online and archived – with the top nuclear experts in the country presenting their views and data to the public. We have looked at every aspect of the plant—even topics, like terrorist threats, that are hard to talk about without classified data. No other nuclear plant in the country has had so comprehensive a program for public engagement than the one at San Onofre. In our meetings, no subject has generated more concern than the problem of moving the spent fuel. Across the political spectrum, people are shocked and angry to learn that the decommissioning of the plant does not mean the removal of everything. The problem is that there is no place to send the fuel rods. Back in 1982 Congress outlined its vision in the Nuclear Waste Policy Act, and in the years since that vision has turned into
a pernicious plan: stick Nevada with the fuel at Yucca Mountain. The US Government has already spent more than $15b investigating the site in the desert outside Las Vegas; it has learned a lot of science, but it now looks unlikely the site will ever open. Yet 17 reactors at 14 sites in 11 states that are no longer operating – reactors, like here at San Onofre, that have no place send their spent fuel because political gridlock, like at Yucca, keeps their fuel stuck onsite. The government collected a huge pile of cash, amassed into a $46 billion fund according to the 2016 audit, to pay for permanent disposal. The Federal government is now in breach of contract and some utilities have sued to get back the money that belongs to their customers. Each step in the Yucca logic is easy to understand, but the story overall hasn’t solved the waste problem. We here in the communities around San Onofre must lead the way for a solution. No community is more focused and organized; none has a Congressional delegation so ready to act. The solution isn’t doubling down on Yucca Mountain. The politics in Nevada are too fraught and flaky to make that a viable plan. Nice-sounding ideas— like moving the spent fuel on to Camp Pendleton or to the Palo Verde Nuclear plant in Arizona (which is partly owned by California electric companies)—are interesting to think about. They need constant probing and updating as new political forces alter what is practical in the real world—so that we aren’t tilting at options that won’t work in reality. Realism demands, too, that we focus on what’s clearly the best solution: “interim storage”—a safe place to send the spent fuel
while the nation works out better options than Yucca and while new technologies create new options for permanent disposal. Two sites—one in New Mexico and another in Texas—are already lining up. More will follow if a change in federal law makes interim storage a viable option. We may not want to store spent fuel here at San Onofre, but other communities are keen for the business. Success requires at least two things. First, we must get the California delegation fully aligned on this mission after the November election. Some members are reliably engaged—like Dianne Feinstein, Scott Peters, Mike Levin, Harley Rouda, Salud Carbajal, and Tony Cárdenas—but many are not. We must reach out to build a bigger coalition that shows California’s strength and also engages other communities around the country that are in the same pickle—from Illinois to Ohio, Vermont, New York, Texas and many other states that span the political spectrum. Second, and probably harder, we must band together as a community to focus on the big picture. Passion and acrimony around San Onofre has led to wild claims about the dangers of spent fuel storage in stainless steel canisters. Those have needlessly rattled the local community and are fodder for other communities that watch us and wonder: why would we want to be interim storage sites? The lessons from the coronavirus pandemic, global warming and many other dangers is that good policy must start with science. The same is true here. David G. Victor, Daniel T. Stetson and Martha McNicholas are officers of the San Onofre Community Engagement Panel.

Solana Beach moves forward with multiuse path By Dan Brendel
DR. CARMEN GARCÍA
San Marcos superintendent resigns post By Tigist Layne
SAN MARCOS — San Marcos Unified School District (SMUSD) announced at its board meeting Tuesday, Sept. 15, that Superintendent Dr. Carmen García resigned effective immediately. Assistant Superintendent Tiffany Campbell will step in as the acting superintendent of the district. García was not present at the board meeting, but the district posted a farewell message from the former superintendent on its website. In the letter, García thanked the board for the “amicable separation” and “for the opportunity to work together these past two years with phenomenal students, teachers, parents, staff, administrators, and the community at large.” García also thanked teachers, students, administrators, the district and the community as a whole for their service and dedication to the district. She concluded with a note to the SMUSD community: “As our world continues to shift with the twists and turns brought forth by a global pandemic, our students rely upon the ongoing courageous conversations and support that will provide the best education for all SMUSD scholars.” García was appointed by the board in October 2018. She came to San Marcos from San Diego Unified School District where she served as a lead principal at San Diego High School. It is unclear why García made the sudden decision to step down. Numerous parents and families of the district, however, have expressed disappointment during board meetings and on social media about the district’s approach to the reopening of schools amid COVID-19 concerns. “There was a significant loss of confidence in her ability to lead our district based on the results of a community-based climate survey,” said Sandra Greefkes, an SMUSD parent. “As parents, we look forward to positively collaborating with the district leadership, teachers and staff. Dr. Campbell is responsive and thoughtful and understands the logistics required to open safely.”
SOLANA BEACH — The Solana Beach City Council reaffirmed its commitment to construct a multiuse pedestrian-and-bike path along Lomas Santa Fe Drive at its September 9 meeting. “The intent here is to really make this a multiuse corridor that facilitates … all modes of transportation” and “to get the school kids back and forth,” Councilman David Zito said. Council authorized an additional $15,000 for the project, underway since FY 2016, to make room for
a wider path at two narrow “pinch points” west of I-5. The extra money will go toward planning to move a median by Skyline Elementary, allowing the path there to attain its full target width of 15.5 feet. City staff will also plan to widen the path to 11.5 feet between Granados and Nardo Avenues by shaving a couple of feet from a parking lane. Council opted not to go wider along that jaunt so as not to disturb residential driveways and retaining walls. Except for the latter stretch, the city can now
build the whole path between Cedros Avenue and Solana Hills Drive — roughly, between Highway 101 and I-5 — 15.5 feet wide. That width defines a “true” multiuse path, including a 10-foot paved walkway/ bikeway flanked by landscaped buffers, according to a staff report. Anything narrower comprises merely “a wider sidewalk,” requiring the city to change regulations to allow bicyclists, consultant Dawn Wilson said. The project received a $616,000 SANDAG planning grant in 2018. The estimated total cost for
improvements along the Lomas Santa Fe corridor — including east of I-5 to Highland Drive — weighs in at $12 million. “The construction cost for this project has not yet been appropriated,” Public Works Director Mo Sammak said. “The city hopes to fund the construction … [with Caltrans] grant funding.” Some residents questioned the need for a wider multiuse pathway. “The bike lanes and pedestrian walkways that currently exist are more than sufficient to accommodate demand,” LaMar Going
said. “The foot traffic on the north side of Lomas Santa Fe [where the multiuse path would go] flows well with no crowding,” Craig McLeod said. “I don't think the problem exists.” Others disagreed, like resident Shawna McGarry, who said: “I don't think that there will be a lack of demand when there's the infrastructure there.” “The project … meshes well with the city's Climate Action Plan and other environmental and transportation objectives,” resident Peter Zahn said.
National Park Service reverses decision on school rebuild By Caitlin Steinberg
ENCINITAS — In a shocking reversal on September 11, the National Park Service (NPS) has rescinded its approval of several disputed Cardiff Elementary School construction elements, further halting construction and invalidating its own decision four months prior. In response to a second lawsuit filed by Save The Park on June 12, the federal agency reversed its conversion approval of select areas of George Berkich Park to non-recreational uses, stating it will continue to work with the California Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) to resolve the issue. The three areas in question, the hard court, parking lot, and northwest garden areas, are now determined to be improper conversion replacement property, though the National Park Service had previously approved those areas. Immediately following the agency’s most recent decision, Judge Larry A. Burns denied Cardiff School District’s request to remove a preliminary injunction issued by the U.S. District Court of Southern California on July 20, prohibiting construction within the park boundary lines. The two decisions issued on September 11 follow over a year of legal battles between the District and the organization, Save the Park. In an email to Cardiff Elementary families on Monday, Sept 14, despite weeks of “will they or wont they” legal battles, families were informed students will be able to attend school in 2-3 weeks time. “We are astounded by the actions of NPS,” Superintendent Jill Vinson wrote. “The District followed the explicit guidance of both

NPS and DPR through a lengthy process that resulted in an unconditional approval from both agencies.” The District continued, stating, “a temporary and intrusive ADA accessible walkway and modifications to the unfinished parking lot and drop off/pick up area will be implemented as an interim measure,” thus allowing the students to return to school. According to Vinson, zero facts regarding the project have changed since the original approval in April. “This is a complete about-face from what these agencies have communicated to us for the last two and half years as we have worked to regain compliance with the (Land and Water Conservation Fund) grant requirements,” Vinson said.
Cardiff School Board President Siena Randall said no result from any lawsuit “will change or distract us from our commitment to completing the rebuilding of the school and meet the goal of providing Cardiff students with a safe and modern learning environment that the community voted for. The safety and education of the students remain our priorities and we will find the right path that allows us to move forward.” The opposing organization, Save the Park, was pleased with both decisions, acknowledging “these are extraordinarily difficult times and STP regrets that families have been inconvenienced.” Eleanor Musick, a representative for Save the Park, reiterated that “this dispute is and has always been a legal issue, from that
day in February 2018 when the District was informed that they had a major legal obstacle in the Land and Water Conservation Fund and were advised to take a conservative approach and revise their plans at that early stage to avoid it.” “It was the District’s choice to gamble and barrel headlong toward the obstacle, naively believing they could negotiate their way out of compliance with established federal law. Loss after loss, they refused to change course,” Musick told the Coast News. “They have now slammed into the obstacle they were cautioned to avoid more than two-anda-half years ago. STP need not apologize for asking the District to comply with the law, nor are they responsible for the consequences of the District’s noncompliance.”
For now, the families of children themselves remain frustrated and emotions still run high. Sarah Talbot, a Cardiff Elementary parent who spoke to the Coast News in early September, expressed her dismay at the two legal decisions. “I can’t believe this mess. It’s so upsetting,” Talbot said. “NPS did not follow their own process, causing further delay to students having full access to a rightful education. However, a vocal minority continue this lawsuit despite knowing full well the impacts to the children.” Currently, there is no definitive timeline for the Cardiff Elementary School’s construction, though the District has promised to keep families and the public updated as quickly as possible.

Matter protests throughout San Diego County. Originally operating from her own home, the group outgrew the space both physically and in terms of security. In recent months, E4E has received threats from Encinitas community members and deemed it was no longer safe to be

fering a space to sell their products. “As a community space, we can begin to host the dialogue that’s been lacking for so long in Encinitas,” Woods-Drake said. “It’s a brave space where people can push past their discomfort and engage — be raw and vulnerable.”

Coronavirus County could backslide to more coronavirus-related restrictions By City News Service
REGION — San Diego County could regress into the state’s most restrictive public health tier due to increasing COVID-19 numbers, with Gov. Gavin Newsom Wednesday rejecting a county effort to discount the 722 positive tests recorded by San Diego State University since the semester began. The county could find out next Tuesday if it will slip back to the “purple’’ tier of the state’s coronavirus reopening roadmap. If so, additional restrictions will be slapped onto various businesses until the county can improve its numbers. Data released this week showed one of the two metrics the state monitors being flagged as “widespread,’’ which could potentially lead to the added restrictions. County Supervisor Greg Cox said Wednesday he was writing a letter to Newsom to ask for considerations in excluding SDSU cases, or for other alternatives to avoid rolling back business openings. But Newsom said he isn’t inclined to overlook the SDSU cases. The governor said the county can’t separate cases at a university because it goes to “what a community by definition is — and that is integrated individuals, and as a consequence you can’t isolate as if it’s on an island a campus community that is part of the larger community. So the answer is no.’’ According to Dr. Eric McDonald, the county’s epidemiology expert, the vast majority of those students live in the 92115 ZIP Code around the university — many just a few blocks off campus. He said that while it is true they are technically in the community at large, they are close enough to campus to make the county’s request to exclude those positive tests from the countywide number a realistic endeavor. McDonald said fewer than 10 known cases in

the overall community are linked to interaction with SDSU students, and the university is ramping up its COVID-19 testing protocols through a new random surveillance testing program which requires all students living on campus to be tested for the virus. The surveillance program began Wednesday, with around 500 students to be tested every day through Saturday, then starting again Monday. All students living in SDSU residence halls and apartments will be assigned testing slots at either the Student Health Services Calpulli Center, or the HHSA testing location at

the Parma Payne Goodall Alumni Center. Students will be notified of their assigned testing window, along with instructions on what to do, through their SDSU email address. The university has not received any reports of faculty or staff who have tested positive, SDSU health officials said, nor have any cases been traced to classroom or research settings. If the county regresses to the state’s restrictive “purple’’ or “widespread’’ tier, it would likely shutter indoor operations for restaurants, houses of worship and gyms, limit retail businesses to just 25% capacity and have major impacts on indoor business for most other industries. SDSU reported 37 confirmed and nine probable cases Wednesday. The school is playing an outsized role in the county’s 7.9 new daily cases per 100,000 population, San Diego Public Health Officer Dr. Wilma Wooten said Tuesday. The positive testing percentage for the county is 4.5%, good enough for the “orange’’ tier of the state’s four-tier reopening plan. Should the county have a case rate higher than 7.0 next week, it could be moved into the purple tier — the most restrictive. However, if the numbers from the university are removed from the equation, San Diego County suddenly drops below the mark to remain in the “red’’ tier. County Supervisor Kristin Gaspar on Tuesday

If we can get relief from these impossible metrics, establish local control and remove the SDSU cases without jeopardizing business licenses and CARES Act money, it will be a win for San Diego.’’ San Diego County public health officials reported 264 new COVID-19 infections and six deaths from the illness Wednesday, raising the region’s totals to 43,445 cases and 784 deaths. Of the 8,644 tests reported Wednesday, 3% returned positive, moving the 14-day rolling average of positive tests to 4.4%, well below the state’s 8% guideline. The seven-day average number of tests performed in the county is 7,838. Of the total positive cases in the county, 3,349 — or 7.7% — have required hospitalization since the pandemic began, and 787 — or 1.8% — were admitted to an intensive care unit. County health officials reported five new community outbreaks on Tuesday. In the previous seven days, 17 community outbreaks were confirmed. Two of the new outbreaks were in businesses, and one each in a residence, grocery store and faith-based setting. The number of community outbreaks remains above the county’s goal of fewer than seven in a seven-day span. A community setting outbreak is defined as three or more COVID-19 cases originating in the same setting and impacting people of different households in the past 14 days.

Supervisors OK grant money for small businesses REGION — San Diego County supervisors today unanimously approved millions of dollars in grants for small businesses affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Money from the county’s Small Business Stimulus Program will be “used towards supporting public health and response activities associated with the COVID-19 pandemic,’’ according to the county. Four districts will receive these amounts: — District 1: Roughly $3.9 million, which will be distributed among 506 businesses; — District 2: $4.1 million, for 254 businesses; — District 4: $2.5 million, for 493 businesses; — District 5: $4.1 million, for 776 businesses. There was no request for District 3, represented by Supervisor Kristin Gaspar, on Tuesday’s agenda. Spokeswoman Itica Milanes said Monday that Gaspar would be submitting her grant proposals ``possibly at the Sept. 29th board meeting.’’ Supervisor Jim Desmond, who represents District 5, said Tuesday that the money “wasn’t enough to cover all the essentials, but we’ll continue to fight to get those businesses open again and thriving.’’ Board Chairman Greg Cox, who represents District 1, said small businesses are the “backbone of our economy,’’ and have weathered numerous challenges amid the pandemic. These grants may seem small, to but those businesses which are struggling, “they make all the difference in the world,’’ Cox said. According to Steve Schmidt, Supervisor Dianne Jacob’s spokesman, more than 80 of the re-
cipients in District 5 are restaurants. There are also “many salons, barbershops and fitness-related businesses’’ receiving grant money, Schmidt said. He added that in Jacob’s district alone, there were more than 800 applicants, with a total of $95 million in requested funds. Supervisor Nathan Fletcher, who represents District 4, announced the grants during a Monday event, saying there was a “real focus and priority in our allocation to make sure we find those small businesses. They are part of our community and I wanted to make sure they weren’t left behind.’’ UCSD to roll out smartphone pilot program for COVID-19 exposure alerts REGION — University of California Health announced today UC San Diego will be one of two campuses to pilot a smartphone technology that notifies users if they have had a highrisk COVID-19 exposure. The limited pilot program will roll out incrementally at UCSD later this month. UC San Francisco will start using the technology a few weeks later for students, faculty and staff participating in onsite activities at select locations. According to the university system, the technology does not collect location data from any device and will never share user identities. “If the pilot is successful, it will set the foundation for the state to offer voluntary exposure notifications to all Californians using this free smartphone-based technology,’’ said Christopher Longhurst, chief information officer for UC San Diego Health. “The Google/Apple Exposure Notification Express tools offer a high-tech, privacy-preserving solution that automates the work of notification for you — without sharing who you are or providing unnecessary digital details that could compromise privacy.’’ The pilot programs will allow those who volunteer to use the technology to receive automatic smartphone notifications of a potential exposure to other enrolled users diagnosed with COVID-19, regardless of whether the users know each other. The technology uses Bluetooth to communicate with other Bluetooth- enabled devices nearby. When a person opts into using the notification system, the user’s phone broadcasts a random identification number to other phones in the area. When phones come within six feet of each another, they log each other’s IDs — without names or locations attached. If a person is diagnosed with COVID-19, they can voluntarily enter a keycode indicating they received a positive test result.

Del Mar to reconsider zoning decision By Dan Brendel

Blakespear, Thunder sign Clean Campaign Pledge By Caitlin Steinberg
ENCINITAS — In an effort to stem the tide of election toxicity, both Encinitas’ mayoral candidates — Mayor Catherine Blakespear and challenger Julie Thunder — have committed to signing a pledge to run clean campaigns, taking an important step toward inspiring civility and honest discourse among candidates and residents. The Clean Campaign Pledge, established by The Coast News, is a series of nonpartisan guideposts and practices for North County’s upcoming election season. As discussed in a twopart podcast series on The Coast News’ North County Beat, this year’s election cycle has seen an increase in social and political conflicts among residents, through both in-person protests and social media confrontations. According to Sheriff’s Capt. Herbert Taft, the increasing vitriol exists on a spectrum from simple disagreements to hate speech and violent threats, most of which are safeguarded by the First Amendment. In the first episode of a two-part series released on September 4, North County Beat podcast host Kelli Kyle and reporter Caitlin Steinberg examined the ways residents are getting in confrontations, whether 2020 is as uniquely toxic as it feels, and discussed the devolving discourse on online spaces including Facebook. For the second episode, released on Friday, September 18, the podcast examines the consequences of political mudslinging and possible solutions, featuring in-depth interviews with both Blakespear and Thunder and introducing The Coast News’ Clean Campaign pledge: • I promise to run an open and public campaign and shall not permit character defamation, libel, or slander against other candidates. This extends to campaign materials such as signs and flyers, phone calls, or on social media. If I see or if I am made aware of someone posting derogatory comments or hate speech about another candidate online, especially if done in my name, I will publicly denounce these actions and
request that the individual stop the behavior. • I will not issue any statement or communication discussing my opponent’s family, children, race, national origin, religion or sex. • I will not lie. I will focus on the issues and will not issue any statements or materials that misrepresent, distort or otherwise falsify the facts. • I will personally respect and protect my opponent’s campaign signs and will instruct my campaign workers and supporters to do likewise. • I will at all times be prepared to provide supporting evidence to constituents and local media for statements I have made and will issue a retraction and apology should I find that I have been in error. Both Blakespear and Thunder shared their personal experiences with destructive and violent rhetoric, solutions for having hard conversations with people of differing opinions and enthusiastic support for the pledge itself. “What [the Coast News] is doing is great,” Blakespear said. “It’s forcing a reflection from each campaign and hopefully the supporters of those people asking, what am I contributing to this? And is it positive? Is it helpful? Is it allowing for a discussion that involves divergent thought? Or is it closing the door on people, demeaning them and diminishing their value?” Separate from The Coast News, Blakespear had previsouly included “a Pledge from Catherine about Civility” on her campaign website. Thunder also agreed, saying the pledge is needed to help re-focus the elections on the issues versus name-calling and ad hominem attacks. “I hope that not just myself and my opponent adopt this but other candidates across North County will take a hard look at it and consider following these guidelines,” Thunder said. All North County candidates will be afforded the opportunity to sign and display the Coast News’ Clean Campaign Pledge on their campaign websites and social media platforms.
DEL MAR — Fearing enforcement actions by the state, the Del Mar Planning Commission recommended Tuesday that the City Council reconsider last week’s decision not to allow denser residential development in the city’s North Commercial zone. Without the change, the city remains out of compliance with state affordable housing law. It’s been out of compliance since 2015. Council will reconsider the proposed rezoning Oct.5. City staff warned that noncompliance could result in the state overriding local land-use authority, ineligibility for state grant funding, lawsuits, fines, and accelerated planning requirements that would eat up staff’s time. The City of Encinitas has spent some $2 million in connection with its similar noncompliance, city planner Amanda Lee told the planning commission. “The state has ramped up its enforcement authority,” Lee said. “Del Mar is probably a target that would be a good example for them to show other cities in our in our boat what type of penalties they could impose.” “Rescinding compliance and referral to the [Attorney General] are certainly options under consideration,” the state’s Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) told The Coast News in a statement. “These are essential statutory requirements for
meeting housing needs.” Councilwoman Terry Gaasterland and Councilman Dave Druker blocked the rezone at council’s Sept. 8 meeting, preventing a required four-fifths supermajority. The North Commercial area comprises 16 parcels near the San Dieguito Lagoon across from the Del Mar Fairgrounds. Their zoning currently allows commercial and light industrial uses, as well as certain

Toward meeting the city’s target of adding 113 lower-income affordable units, city staff estimates the North Commercial parcels, if rezoned, could yield 20 units. The rest would come
The fact is that we’ve run out of space, and we’ve run out of time.” John Farrell Del Mar Planning Commissioner very-low-density housing. The state-approved 2013-2021 Housing Element (or chapter) of the city’s General Plan obligated the city by 2015 to amend these parcels’ zoning to allow residential development at a density of 20 units per acre. The Housing Element outlines how the city plans to meet state-mandated affordable housing production targets. Higher density — 20 units per acre in Del Mar’s case — serves “to accommodate the economies of scale needed to produce affordable housing,” according to published HCD guidance. The city’s draft 20212029 Housing Element,
from other rezoned commercial areas, accessory dwelling units (ADUs), city-owned properties, vacant land and/or a hopedfor partnership with the Del Mar Fairgrounds. “Right now, we're not in compliance with state law. We're at risk of having our [2013-2021] Housing Element decertified. The [2021-2029 Housing Element] is something that can correct that, it can bring us into good status with the state,” Lee said. Druker said Sept. 8 he agrees with adding residential development, though at some density less than 20 units per acre. Gaasterland said allowing more residential
density in the North Commercial area would put residents at risk of wildfires and sea-level rise. She wants to consider alternatives, such as outlined in a June 15 report from certain members of a city advisory task force. “The ‘other side’ is doing an excellent job at fear-mongering,” Gaasterland told The Coast News in a Sept. 16 statement. “We need a renewed, serious, sensible discussion with HCD. We need to work with the Fairgrounds. We need the conversation to continue cooperatively.” She noted the 20132021 Housing Element is already reaching its end, HCD having begun counting unit production for the 2021-2029 planning cycle as of June 30. Druker told The Coast News on Sept. 17 that he agrees with Gaasterland's assessment. Planning commissioners didn’t see any viable alternatives. Some said not rezoning the North Commercial area could force the city to allow development on bluff areas or parks instead. An arrangement with the Del Mar Fairgrounds is possible, but nothing is yet committed to. “I don't see any incentive for the state to let us off the hook by cutting a deal with the Fairgrounds, certainly not in the immediate future,” Planning Commissioner John Farrell said. “The fact is that we’ve run out of space, and we’ve run out of time.”
Area woman sues doctor for alleged artificial insemination By City News Service
REGION — A San Diego County woman filed a lawsuit Wednesday alleging a local physician she consulted for fertility issues used his own sperm to artificially inseminate her, which was only discovered after her adult son took a DNA test decades later. The suit filed in San Diego Superior Court on behalf of Beverly Willhelm alleges Dr. Phillip M. Milgram told her the sperm was from an anonymous colleague of his who was a physician at UC San Diego and a frequent donor whose sperm samples had successfully helped several women become pregnant. Willhem’s son, James Mallus, now 32, received a 23andMe DNA kit for Christmas and through the test, discovered Milgram was his biological father, according to the suit. Calls made to Milgram's Carlsbad addiction treatment center went unanswered. Milgram is also an attending physician at Scripps Memorial Hospital in La Jolla, according to Willhelm’s attorney,
Adam Wolf, who filed a similar suit Wednesday in Northern California against another physician, who also allegedly used his own sperm in fertility treatments and is responsible for the Tay-Sachs disease of that plaintiff’s daughter. Wolf said Milgram was previously stripped of his medical license for alleged substance abuse and other issues, but his license was later reinstated and he continues to practice. “Instead of using the sperm of an anonymous donor and a physically and mentally healthy individual, as he promised, Dr. Milgram used the sperm of a drug addict who had serious mental health issues — his own sperm,” Willhelm alleged during a news conference announcing the lawsuit. Mallus said, “I expected to learn something new and exciting about who I am when I took this test. But instead, I learned something that’s revolting.” A hearing in the suit has tentatively been set for May 7 at the Hall of Justice in San Diego.

State lawmakers find some common ground on top bills By Dan Brendel
REGION — Select bills from the state legislature’s 2019-2020 regular session suggest some partisan divisiveness and line-toeing, though perhaps less than one might expect, especially in the assembly. Both chambers had until Aug. 31 to pass bills, before entering recess. Some 4,800 bills, plus nearly 600 assorted resolutions and rules, were introduced in the assembly and senate, according to data from LegiScan, a tracking service. Over 1,300 passed. The accompanying table summarizes how legislators representing North County or adjacent areas voted on 20 select bills, in those bills’ most recent actions. We spliced this sampling from LegiScan’s mostviewed and most-monitored lists, a Cal Matters ranking of “most popular” bills by number of coauthors, plus a couple of our own picks. In the table, “NVR” stands for no vote recorded, meaning the legislator was absent or abstained from voting (although in couple cases the legislator did cast a vote in an earlier floor vote on a bill). Some commentators suggest legislators might abstain when they want to oppose a bill or their party, but not with an overt nay vote. “N/A” means the bill didn’t make it to a given chamber or else made it only to a
GRAPHIC KEY: “NVR” stands for no vote recorded, meaning the legislator was absent or abstained. “SF” means a legislator voted in an appropriations committee to send the bill to the Suspense File, or to set it aside for further analysis of its fiscal impact.

committee on which a given legislator doesn’t sit. “SF” means a legislator voted in an appropriations committee to send the bill to the Suspense File — that is, to set the bill aside for further analysis of its fiscal impact,
potentially for later hearing. North County’s Republican representatives stood together against their Democrat opponent more frequently in the senate than in the assembly.

And North County legislators generally didn’t co-sponsor or jointly sponsored the same bills. Though several bills in our selection — including some relating to police use of force, gender equality
and cannabis — garnered bipartisan support. SB1120, a controversial housing bill, saw an agreement between partisan counterparts in the same chamber, but disagreement between fellow partisans
across chambers. Democratic Assemblywoman Tasha Boerner-Horvath (D-Encinitas) voted differently than Senator Toni Atkins (D-San Diego) in 4 of the 14 bills in our lineup on which both cast a vote.
County’s census response rate up from 2010 By City News Service
REGION — San Diego County has seen a nearly 5% increase in its response to the 2020 Census above the 2010 response rate, according to state census data. Data collected through Tuesday indicates 72.9% of county households have responded this year, as opposed to 68% in 2010, mirroring an increased response rate statewide. Census officials say that California’s 2020 self-response rates surpassed the 2010 rate on Wednesday, with 68.4% of California households responding either online, by
phone or mail. The 2010 rate was 68.2%. State census officials touted the success of their outreach campaign, particularly given California is considered one of the “hardest-to-count” states in the country due its size and a high number of people who are difficult to contact for census purposes, such as recent immigrants, people who lack high-speed internet access or people with limited English proficiency. Campaign efforts will continue until the Sept. 30 deadline. “It is through the collective efforts of millions of Californians that we
One of San Diego’s Largest Selections of Unique, Antique & Interesting fine Jewelry, Sterling Silver, Coins & Bullion
have surpassed our 2010 self-response rate. But make no mistake — we are not done yet. We know the hardest-to-count Californians still may be missed or undercounted given the shortened deadline, so it’s essential these households complete the form now,” said Ditas Katague, director of the California Complete Count Census 2020. “With two weeks left, our message is loud and clear: Californians need to act and fill out their Census forms,” Katague added. “We have just days to secure funding and representation in our state for the next decade.”

King of the coop A homestead entrepreneur takes flight in North County By Jordan P. Ingram
OCEANSIDE — Since kindergarten, Oceanside teenager Henry “Hank” Driskill has helped his family raise chickens in their North County backyard and at his grandparent’s farm in Michigan. Today, the sophomore trade-school student has combined his love for animals and years of farmhand experience to offer ministrations for residents with domestic animals. Driskill’s business, Hank’s Homestead, provides weekly, monthly and annual cleaning and maintenance services for chickens, pigs, goats, miniature horses and a variety of other animals in Carlsbad, Vista and Oceanside. The young entrepreneur said he was in middle school when he landed his first job
cleaning a chicken coop. “My mom was looking on Craigslist and saw an ad seeking someone to take care of a chicken coop,” Driskill told The Coast News. “We went over there, they interviewed me and I started the next week. I got two more jobs (cleaning coops) and just started doing that.” Since 2017, Driskill has grown his customer base through word-of-mouth, small advertising campaigns and a popular Instagram profile. Three years later, Hank’s Homestead provides weekly cleanings for eight regular customers, in addition to one-time deep cleanings and other homestead-related services. For more than a year,

Finding the perfect patio plants By Samantha Nelson
Patios are outdoor extensions of the home, and with just the right plants, patios can quickly become the best room outside of the whole house. Whether it’s a small apartment deck or a backyard oasis, patios need a little bit of flowers and greenery to enhance their look. Certain plants can be useful to have on the patio for purifying air or providing shade and privacy; other plants are simply easy on the eyes. Choosing the right plants will depend on how much shade and access to sunlight it requires, according to Hassie Ficher of Green Thumb Nursery in San Marcos. “A lot of people are choosing fruits and vegetable plants, which require sun,” Ficher said. Plant lovers don’t necessarily need a garden to grow fruits and vegetables either. Many such plants can be planted in containers

and will grow nicely on a small deck or patio as long as they have sunlight. Ficher said ferns also make for great patio plants, as well as flowering plants like azaleas, camellias, hibiscus and lantanas. More green options for the patio include elephant ears and philodendrons. Ficher said many people are buying more plants like lantanas, gomphrena and pentas to attract butterflies.

Tips to make your home more energy-efficient By Steve Puterski
REGION — Saving money and resources is a priority for many homeowners and renters. And there are several ways to drive down energy and water bills, such as moving to energy-efficient appliances, taking advantage of free programs and incentives, seals, windows and other household items. Mario Sierra, the former director of environmental services for the city of San Diego, said newer home builders are incorporating more energy-efficient designs, but older homes need some upgrades. “If you’re purchasing a new home, you should be benefiting from a lot of this new technology,” Sierra said. “Moving forward, I think we’ll be in good hands as long as we keep on this track.” For those with older homes, Sierra said qualified San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E) customers are eligible for a number of incentives. The utility has free programs to weatherize the home, change out showerheads, faucets and even install new doors. Other avenues for a more efficient home, Sierra said, include tankless water heaters, which are mandated in new home construction, low-flow toilets and smart thermostats. Solar panels are also required by law for new home construction. Michelle Perez, the campus energy engineer at the University of California, San Diego, said there
are obvious steps to conserve energy such as turning off lights when they’re not in use, run high-energy appliances during off-peak hours and keep the air conditioning unit at 78 degrees during the day. But as many people are working from home due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Perez said many have fallen into the habit of opening the refrigerator numerous times per day. Opening the appliance so many times forces warm air in, which requires more energy to cool it back down. “We do this on campus, not using energy when you don’t need it,” Perez said. “Using high-energy equipment when you only need it. If you’re not using it, shutting things off when you can. Some equipment emits heat and draws electrical load.” Some of the high-energy appliances include dishwashers, washers and dryers, she said. New windows, meanwhile, may have rebates, while other methods may include local or state government incentives or rebates, Sierra said. Currently, SDG&E is offering a $75 rebate on the Google Nest Thermostat E. For those who buy and enroll in the demand response program, AC Saver, they receive an extra $50 rebate. Under the AC Saver program, residents allow SDG&E to remotely adjust their thermostat on days when conservation is needed.
around here is milkweed. “We’ve sold tons of milkweed this year because that’s what the Monarch caterpillars eat,” Ficher said.
Sage and salvias are also great choices for those who want to attract more hummingbirds to their patios, though Ficher said they do require some maintenance to promote new growth for the next season. Other great outdoor plants include succulents, which like bright areas and are water resilient. Succulents add a variety of green shades and even the occasional little flower. With the right plants, the patio can become a lush, vibrant, happy place with fruits, vegetables and wildlife. The best part? It’s only one step outside of the home.

The fast, affordable way to your own backyard bungalow
A
s the state seeks to increase its housing supply, more people are being encouraged to add accessory dwelling units (ADUs) to their residential properties. An ADU, also known as a “granny flat,” is an additional dwelling built on the lot of a primary residence. ADUs can generate more income for the property owner while also increasing housing stock in the area, but factors such as cost and time of construction on site may be keeping them from installing their own backyard bungalow. Bill Smith, CEO of Backyard Bungalows, wants people to know that there is another more cost-effective, timely way to add an ADU to a property. In an effort to ease California’s housing crisis, the state government recently passed new laws making it easier to build ADUs. That is how Backyard Bungalows came to be. Most people are familiar with site builds when it comes to installing ADUs, where the entire construction process of an ADU happens at the location. Site builds are a tedious process that requires hiring an architect and engineer, getting plans approved, shopping for a con-

tractor as well as for appliances, materials, fixtures, and flooring and applying for building permits. The site must then be prepared before construction of the ADU can happen. “Anybody who has done a major remodel has heard horror stories of contractors not showing up,
cost overruns, frustration running around from store to store — it’s just always a nightmare,” Smith said. At Backyard Bungalows, Smith takes the factory-built approach to ADUs. Though Backyard Bungalows is new, its experienced team has built over 70 factory-built residential homes from San Luis Obis-
po to Palm Desert to San Diego over the past five years. “With us you simply order your ADU at a fixed price and in about 60 days it’s delivered and completed,” Smith said. The time span is short because the site preparation and construction of the ADU in the factory occur simultaneously.

One step does not have to wait for the other as with site-built units. The factory-built process is simple: pick a floor plan, select top of the line appliances, finishes and fixtures from the factory’s catalogue. Backyard Bungalows’ contractor prepares the site while the ADU is built in an
environmentally controlled factory. The ADU is then delivered to the site, where it takes a short three weeks to set-up and complete. Backyard Bungalows offers floor plans from 400 to 1200 square feet in size and style and design choices from contemporary to Cape Cod. “One of the great things about factory-built homes is that the price is fixed,” Smith said. “We know exactly what it’s going to cost and there can’t be any cost overruns.” Many people use ADUs as a guest cottage, an extra space for college kids during the summer, or to generate extra income by collecting rent. Some couples ready to downsize will even move into an ADU on their property and rent out the primary residence for more money. ADUs also add to the property’s overall value. Smith explained that if a residence is valued at $500 per square feet, adding a 400 square foot ADU could mean the property value has increased by $200,000. If you want to install your very own backyard bungalow, call Smith at 760-383-6020 or visit backyardbungalows.com for more information.

Need more space? Build your ADU now! 2020 has been a challenging year in so many ways and we’ve all had to be flexible and learn to adapt. Our homes have also had to evolve to support many functions, not just a place for shelter or for families to gather but also a workplace, a school, a restaurant and so much more. If you need more space, a home office, or want additional rental income then building an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) could be the solution. These granny flats, or guest houses, are attached or detached residential dwelling units on the same lot as an existing single-family dwelling unit. Now is the time to consider an ADU as CA state law has changed to encourage the building of more affordable housing. For example, different cities in North County have adopted and updated their own ordinances to make building ADUs more feasible and affordable. Many homeowners throughout San Diego are building ADUs since the state now says they can be built concurrently with a single-family home. Additionally, they’ve opened areas were ADUs can be built, reduced fees and parking
requirements, and amended building setbacks from property lines. The City of Encinitas is at the forefront of the ADU

hen I was away at college, I would return each summer to my family’s summer cottage on Lake Michigan. The small front yard led the way to a pair of sand dunes, and then, in just few feet, was the lake. As I stepped onto the sandy beach, I exclaimed with glee, “I am home!” For all of us who have moved away from home, possibly many times, it is hard to re-create that wonderful sense of ownership and love of the Earth again. I have visited many Southern California public gardens, and finally found one that made me feel at home and provides a place of peace and sanctuary. The Meditation Garden at the Self-Realization Fellowship in Encinitas offers all the criteria that a sanctuary garden can offer its visitors. Orange and yellow Koi circle peacefully in the pond, small waterfalls joyfully spill from the edges of bluffs and a canopy of trees and shrubs provide shade for guests. According to Lauren Landress, Director of Public Affairs at the Fellowship, “The Meditation Garden provides the visitor with

Carlsbad resident Amy Wills has employed Driskill’s services to help with the upkeep of her father’s chicken coop. “Chickens are messy,” Wills said. “Hank’s services take a big load off my dad. Now, my father gets to enjoy the chickens while Hank does the hard stuff.” Former customer and North County business owner Holly Della Vedova told The Coast News that Driskill provided weekly care for their 11 chickens. “We have two kids, four businesses and we are super busy running

In St. Francis Circle, the trees form an awning and guests can be seated in what Yogananada called, ‘the Wall-less temple.’ Nearby, the bluff meditation area allows the viewer to sit on a bench and view the ocean.” The Encinitas Hermitage was built in 1938, and the property is visited each year by thousands of visitors. Although the grounds are presently closed, a virtual tour is available at https:// www.yogananda.org, which also provides free instruction regarding meditation techniques.

around,” Della Vedova said. “(Hank) would clean out the coop and make sure they had fresh food and water. He’s just a fantastic young man.” Della Nova recalled when Driskill first approached them about a job, he brought a resume, cover letter and professional referrals. After his interview, he wrote them a note thanking them for the opportunity. “It’s just impressive,” Della Nova said. “I told him you’re going to go far in life.” Recently, Driskill saved enough money to buy an electric bicycle, which he rides to his cleaning gigs
in neighboring Carlsbad. But he said his goal is to save enough money to buy a new vehicle. “I really want a van because I love mountain biking and surfing, and in a van, I can fit everything in there and lock it up,” Driskill said. For those wondering what it’s like to clean a chicken coop, it’s fairly tedious work. And of course, there are chicken droppings everywhere. Before entering the coop, Driskill said he always puts on his purple gloves and a face mask to avoid breathing harmful dust and particles. “I start with putty
knives to scrape poop off the walls,” Driskill said. After putting the scrapings in a green-waste receptacle, he removes the old bedding, typically consisting of hay, straw or mini-flake wood shavings, and sprays the entire coop with vinegar. Driskill then sprinkles diotamaceous earth (fossilized phytoplankton) on the floor of the nesting box, which helps protect the hens from mites and other bugs. Driskill scrubs the waterer to remove algae and finishes the job by installing clean bedding, fresh feed and clean water. Once his work is done, Driskill
enjoys spending time with the animals, including a 200-pound potbelly pig named Sadie, which the owners treat like a family dog. “(Sadie) was my first pig pen I ever cleaned, and they are way cleaner than I expected,” Driskill said. “She had blankets and old sheets in one corner of her pen. I reorganized them and put them in a big pile and she would move them and lay inside of them instead of mud.” Driskill said he plans on keeping the business while he attends at North County Trade Tech High School in Vista and has even considered expand-
ing his enterprise to unincorporated rural areas in North County. Outside of his cleaning services, Driskill is studying construction and machining at school. Eventually, he wants to learn a trade, such as welding or carpentry, and work with his hands. Three days a week, Driskill attends the Oceanside Junior Lifeguard Program at Oceanside Harbor Beach, helping teach children beach safety and ocean lifesaving skills.

able online and at various public counters throughout the city. City Manager Deanna Lorson had recently indicated that the search would be limited to internal candidates, but some church pastors and residents want a nationwide search instead. According to Pastor Kadri Webb of St. John Missionary Baptist Church and Rev. Jason Coker of the Oceanside Sanctuary, limiting the search to internal candidates would mean that only a few applicants could be considered. This is problematic, they explain, during a time when current policing methods are being reexamined in an effort to eliminate racism and excessive use of force, as well as how to make the best use of police resources. Lorson told The Coast News that when McCoy announced his retirement, she initially began looking at recent police chief recruitments in San Diego County and for professional guidance for hiring a new chief. She found that most cities in the region promoted chiefs internally, and that usually the first step is to look internally for leadership potential. Lorson noted that she saw experienced candidates within the department, none of whom are “content with the status quo, but recognize the need for the department to continue to evolve its policing practices and build strong community relationships.” “It is my strong desire that we engage in a process of continuous improvement and it seemed that an internal search could result in a new Police Chief with the internal knowledge and established community connections to lead the department through a challenging process of self-examination and improvement,” Lorson said via email. As Lorson started to work on an internal search, however, she realized community input was needed first to make sure her “observations are in alignment with the community.” The survey will determine the city’s next steps in the chief recruitment process. Lorson explained that although none of the questions directly ask if the
A15
T he C oast News search should be internal or nationwide, the community’s survey answers will help her make that decision. “I will be looking for a Chief that has demonstrated strong community relationship and a thorough understand of the City’s diversity and can build on OPD’s track record while also providing a fresh look to ensure that OPD is continually improving its practices and providing outstanding service to the community,” Lorson said. According to Coker and Webb, the Oceanside Police Department struggles with mistrust among many residents. Both St. John Missionary and the Oceanside Sanctuary partnered with the Kroc Institute for Peace and Justice at the University of San Diego in 2018 to determine the community’s trust for local police. “Oceanside’s residents of color consistently reported that they, or someone they knew, had negative encounters with police,” Webb and Coker wrote in the letter. After the survey was announced, St. John, Oceanside Sanctuary and St. Thomas More Catholic Church gathered over 200 constituent emails for Lorson and City Council with three demands: 1. Open the position to external applicants. 2. Create online public workshops for residents to share their concerns, values and priorities for a new chief. 3. Make the identity of all persons advising Lorson known before the selection of a new chief. According to Rob Howard, who is running for mayor in the upcoming election, the city needs to prioritize building the public’s trust in its police department. “When it comes to policing and public trust, you want continuous improvement,” Howard said. “Do not be satisfied with being better than another police jurisdiction — we’ve got to always want to better.” Howard wants to see improvement in the relationship between community members, the police department’s leadership and the police union. “If you are in a position of leadership, you should work harder on those relationships that are not good than the relationships that are good,” Howard said.
Sports Lepire goes from coach to artful Dodger sports talk jay paris
S
ome good words to embrace: Make each day your masterpiece. Rick Lepire would agree. Most know Lepire from the diamond as a gem of a North County baseball coach. He led Vista High to 365 victories, a playoff spot in 17 of his 18 seasons and a CIF San Diego Section title. He also worked two seasons at Cal State University San Marcos, putting some bite in the Cougars’ outfield play. And he improved the aim of Palomar College pitchers as an assistant coach. Now Lepire’s best work comes via blank canvases, doing just what he did for his players: making them sparkle and shine. “I thought that one day I might like to paint,” said Lepire, who won numerous coach of the year honors. “So, the last four years I’ve self-taught myself. I wanted to develop a style, and be unique, so people would know who did it.” It’s a who-done-it with amazing results. Lepire’s acrylic paintings present his subjects as if the viewer is spotting them through a stained-glass widow. “I always felt I was very creative in the field as a coach with our style of play,” said Lepire, who also pitched at San Diego State. “I try to do the same thing with my paintings.” One can draw a line from Lepire’s coaching, which he stepped away from in 2016, to his easel. His artist efforts on

baseball are stunning and those with Dodgers roots, as Justin Turner and Vin Scully, would concur. Lepire’s ears always perked up for Scully's signature line, “It’s time for Dodger baseball.” That Lepire’s version of Scully graces a wall in his home is pinch-worthy stuff. “One of my good friends runs a clothing store in Beverly Hills and dresses Vin Scully,” said Lepire, who is in his 28th year on Vista’s faculty. “He said, ‘Why don’t you do one of Vin and I will deliver it.’ ” Soon after the phone rang in Lepire’s Vista home of 23 years. “It was Vin with a personal message of how much he loved it and that he hung it in the hallway in his house,” Lepire said. Soon it was Turner giv-
ing thanks. “I wanted to do Turner because he is such a unique individual with his long red hair and beard,” Lepire, 58, said. “I sent a direct message of it to his wife, she loved it and said she wanted to hang it in his office.” After being a fixture in baseball's world for so long, Lepire found another creative outlet. Although it’s not the first time he’s revealed his cultured side. He wrote and recorded a CD of baseball songs on “Play Ball,” in 2006. “He can sing a little bit,” said David Demarest, who coached Lepire at Orange County's La Quinta High and later became a close friend. “He’s always up doing the karaoke.” How did his nine-song effort do? “We sold a few,” Lep-
ire said, “then it went to the bargain bin.” Lepire hit the right notes as a coach and now he’s doing it through art. He’s been commissioned to paint everything from the Brooklyn Bridge to scenic landscapes to music festivals. Minus baseball, Lepire fills the afternoon hours with flourishing strokes. “I was used to getting home at 6 after practice and now I was getting home at 2:30 so I had to figure out something to do,” Lepire said. “I just never really had other interests when coaching. So, by not coaching, I guess it was a blessing in disguise as a I started painting and just kept going.” Contact Jay Paris at jparis8@aol.com. Follow him at @jparis_sports.

Behind the scenes with Keith Blackburn Keith Blackburn takes his work as a Carlsbad councilman seriously. Since 2008, he has worked hard to improve quality of life for residents and increasing the city’s revenue base. While Blackburn’s work as a councilmember is important, he also serves his community in several other ways outside of City Hall. Blackburn has a daughter and two grandchildren, who live in Carlsbad as well. He worked 40 years as a police officer, having retired after 28 years of full time police work and volunteering as a reserve officer for the last 12 years. Thirty-three of those years were spent with the Carlsbad Police Department. He grew attached to the dogs he worked with as a K9 officer. After retiring, Blackburn began volunteering at the Carlsbad Animal Shelter. There, he nurtures dogs with behavior issues
Years ago, Blackburn took on the challenge of walking 10 pit bull terriers that were seized from a fighting operation and kept at the shelter. One of those dogs was Red, Blackburn’s favorite of the group. He was in bad condition when he was first brought to the shelter. “When he first came in he was so steroid-ed out that he had muscles growing out of his muscles and scars all over him,” Blackburn said. “He was a full-fledged fighter.” A few years later Red became the average, happy dog with young children and cats as his best friends in his forever home with Blackburn’s daughter, where he lived the rest of his life peacefully.

He served on the Boys & Girls Club Board of Directors for nearly seven years, and his non-profit Blackburn Foundation has awarded more than $1 million to community-based organizations and children’s groups. The councilman donates his entire Council salary to local non-profits, which is usually split between youth organizations and animal rescues. Those organizations
include The Mitchell Thorp Foundation, after school children’s programs, animal rescue organization and the Boys & Girls Club. He also volunteered for Meals on Wheels for five years delivering meals to the elderly. Besides his service as a police officer, councilman and volunteer, Blackburn also has a background in business. He was the founding partner in the development of the Carlsbad Premium Outlets, and is a managing partner in a real estate group that owns and operates residential units. Outside of City Hall, Blackburn is continuing to work hard for his community whether its ensuring better treatment for animals, improving opportunities for children and providing access to meals for the elderly.

North County Natural Medicine helps individuals dealing with dementia Alzheimer’s disease is the sixth leading cause of death in the United States, with over 5.8 million people currently suffering. This number is expected to increase to over 13 million by 2050. In a majority of cases, the outlook is bleak. Most doctors treat Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia as a ticking clock, a countdown that cannot be reversed. A unique medical clinic in Encinitas has a different approach. North County Natural Medicine is a medical facility created by Dr. Heather Sandison that specializes in viewing health and wellness from a holistic viewpoint. Their approach is a lifestyle-based, all-encompassing system of therapy that focuses on every aspect of personal health. One of their specialties is neuro-therapy pertaining to people suffering from Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia, using the concepts developed by Dr. Dale Bredesen, an expert in
the field and mentor to Dr. Sandison. Dr. Bredesen has spent decades studying and writing about Alzheimer’s. In his New York Times Best Selling book “The End of Alzheimer’s,” he describes his theory on cognitive treatment and prevention when dealing with the disease. “There are steps we can all take now to prevent the cognitive decline that experts have long believed to be unavoidable and irreversible. Dramatic reductions in the prevalence of dementia could be achieved if more people underwent testing and initiated a preventive program long before any symptoms appeared.” There is also hope for those already suffering. In Dr. Bredesen’s latest book “The End of Alzheimer’s Program” he describes the steps Dr. Sandison guides her patients through at North County Natural Medicine.

is not a one-answer solution or something a single drug can fix. It requires studying how all components of one’s life effects the brain. “Nutrients, toxins, blood flow, genetics, posture, stress levels, infections – all of these play a role in cognitive function,” she said. Dr. Sandison’s work
with patients experiencing cognitive decline involves taking all of this information and more, and figuring out not just the “what” of a patient’s condition but also the “why.” Once she has identified the pieces of the puzzle a personalized treatment plan can be implemented.
At its core, the plaques and tangles found in the brains of those suffering with Alzheimer’s are the result of imbalance in the body. When we can determine what is driving the imbalance and remove it the brain has a chance of healing. “I choose to do this challenging work be-
cause I believe in the immense value of the wisdom of our elders. They have so much to offer. We need them engaged in our families, neighborhoods and larger communities,” says Dr. Sandison. The staff at North County Natural Medicine are both highly qualified and compassionate toward patients. What really separates them from staff at other facilities is a positive attitude toward treatment and recovery. Dr. Sandison explains part of their mission. “Our staff expects our patients to get better. Instead of showing up to a clinic where everyone is expecting you to decline, our expectation is that symptoms will at least stop progressing and, in some cases, completely resolve.” The results speak for themselves.

HOUSING
from an impasse between state rules and Proposition A, a 2013 initiative requiring Encinitas voters to approve certain land uses and building heights. Voters blocked Housing Element up-zoning twice, rejecting Measure T in 2016 and Measure U in 2018. To break the deadlock, the judge let the Council temporarily bypass voters. But he declined to annul Proposition A, citing initiative and referendum powers enshrined in the state constitution. HCD worries history could repeat itself, saying in its letter the city’s submitted plan “is wholly inadequate to mitigate the effects of Prop A” on timely future
compliance. “The city is currently litigating issues regarding Proposition A,” City Manager Jennifer Campbell said. She expects to respond formally to HCD by month’s end. Some Encinitas residents believe Proposition A merely checks plans with excessive up-zoning but doesn’t inherently obstruct all up-zoning a Housing Element might require. “It’s not a cap on growth, it just puts the people in the position of the final approval,” Planning Commissioner Bruce Ehlers said. “I do not believe that Prop A needs any mitigation,” said Susan Turney,
District 2 council candidate. “I trust residents to pass a plan that delivers on the promise of affordable housing while adding only the minimum [density] required by law.” “The only thing that should be done about Prop A is to respect it by honoring the will of the voters,” mayoral candidate Julie Thunder said. “Poorly conceived plans may be rejected under Prop A, but it isn’t the absolute barrier it is made out to be,” said Alexander Riley, District 1 council candidate. “Yorba Linda and Escondido have similar laws to Prop A [which haven’t] been a hindrance to new development.”

HCD wants Encinitas to modify the process by which future up-zoning would occur so it doesn’t recurrently fail to meet Housing Element deadlines, as in the past.

Is Invisalign right for you? ENCINITAS — Have you ever wondered if you could easily realign your crooked lower teeth without braces? Many adults have not considered the esthetic or health benefits of re-alignment. For adults who desire straighter, healthier teeth but don’t want braces, Dr. Mark Galli can determine if Invisalign is right for you. Approximately 74% of American adults have crooked or misaligned teeth. Many do not realize that misaligned teeth can actually affect your ability to keep your teeth clean. This can increase inflammation in your gums and body, weakening your immune
cians create a computer simulation of your case. Once approved by you and Dr. Galli, the aligners are then fabricated. A patient will wear upper and lower aligners for 20-22 hours per day, only removing them to eat or clean their teeth. Usually, after two to four weeks, the patient returns to Dr. Galli’s office where he will check progress and give the next set of aligners. Usually, the doctor is comfortable giving the patient more than one set at a time, preventing extra appointments. Dr. Galli supervises the entire treatment. After completion, he always recommends a retainer to help maintain

system and increasing your susceptibility for other infections. Invisalign is a clear and comfortable alternative to braces. The Invisalign system uses removable, clear plastic aligners that are virtually unnoticeable in the mouth to gently and gradually straighten teeth and help keep gums healthier. Invisalign typically straightens the teeth in less time than braces. Though every case is different, Dr. Galli said his patients typically use Invisalign for 12 to 14 months in order to achieve their desired results. Invisalign is great for patients who have crowded teeth, spaces between the teeth or poorly aligned teeth. “The most common adult Invisalign patient is someone who had braces when they were younger, but their teeth have crowded again, and they want them back to where they used to be without going through braces or a long treatment,” Dr. Galli said. Dr. Galli offers complimentary consultations for those interested in Invisalign. If you decide to start, he takes impressions and photographs of the teeth and sends them to the Invisalign laboratory whose techni-

After a while, the retainer may only have to be worn at night. “Many people don’t realize that straightening their teeth can help both the hygienist and themselves keep their mouth cleaner,” Dr. Galli said. Crooked teeth make it more difficult to remove plaque and bacteria from the crowded areas. Bacteria that is not properly removed will multiply and trigger periodontal disease, which begins as gum inflammation. If left untreated, gum inflammation can cause chronic infection, receding gums and eventually tooth loss. More severe periodontal problems can even lead to increased risk for heart disease, strokes and other illnesses, so Dr Galli will evaluate the health of your gums as part of your care. According to Dr. Galli, a cleaner mouth is a healthier mouth, and a healthy mouth can improve a body’s overall health. Invisalign may be a great place to start.

Mexico pups find shelter in Encinitas

By Staff
ENCINITAS — Ten puppies and adult dogs in the Mexican state of Sonora, crossed into the United States to Rancho Coastal Humane Society on Sept. 5 in Encinitas. This is the second lifesaving transfer of dogs from Rescue Fenix to the nonprofit animal shelter. “These dogs were rescued from the streets and taken to an outdoor animal shelter where many of the younger and smaller dogs do not survive,” said John Van Zante, spokesman for Rancho Coastal Humane Society (RCHS). “The dogs live in colony kennels. The puppies and smaller dogs compete for food and safety with every other dog. Many of them don’t make it out.” Early Friday morning the dogs were loaded onto a transport vehicle then began their 17-hour ride to Tijuana. They crossed the border then spent the night at the home of a Rescue Fenix official in Escondido. “The new arrivals included a young, male German Shepherd mix, a male poodle-mix pup and two two-year-old female hound mixes,” RCHS President Judi Sanzo said. Each dog arrived with medical history and the Rancho Coastal medical staff performed initial examinations before the dogs were settled into their new kennels with food, water, and the first soft bedding of their lives. In the coming days the dogs will receive more extensive exams, vaccinations, medical treatment including spay or neuter, and each dog will be micro chipped before becoming available for adoption.

Although we might have daily conversations with our loved ones, the most meaningful and deep ones don’t always happen. Having “the talk of a lifetime” can truly make a huge difference — it can help us see our loved ones in a different and more positive light, it can teach us valuable lessons, it can give us a clearer picture of the things they love, it can bring us closer together, and it can help us reaffirm to them how much we love them. It also doesn’t have to be done only when we feel we are or someone we love is at the end of their life. We’ll never really know what the future holds, so let us take the opportunities while we still can. May we always treasure every moment of our lives and have loving and meaningful conversations with the ones we love.

San Diego Zoo Global, on the other hand, maintains that climate change, habitat loss and invasive plant species have created situations where fires are occurring much more frequently and with higher intensity. “This year’s fire season is only beginning; but so far, we’re seeing that it will be one of the worse in our state’s history,” said Shawn Dixon, chief operating officer for San Diego Zoo Global. “Added to the destruction of property and the loss of human life, wildfires occurring repeatedly in the same locations are displacing native wildlife and altering fragile habitats that could take decades to repair. “It’s more important now than ever that we support those protecting us on the front lines.” Along with their support of local firefighters, the organization also supports more than 140 conservation projects in Southern California and worldwide to monitor native habitats, help replant habitats and to relocate vulnerable species.

o my left is a mountain of a man with his blue denim shirt unbuttoned, revealing a swastika that makes a 10-inch journey to his abdomen. Below the swastika are the inflammatory words, “White Power.” To my right are two men of equal stature — Black Muslims, if I can trust my guide and judge by their appearance. They eye White Power and me suspiciously. Two armed guards pace a catwalk, 20-some feet above us, but a world away. A sign directly above them reads, “No Warning Shots!” If something starts, it won’t end without blood. We are in the maximum-security wing of Donovan State Prison where these men along with around 500 others have gathered to hear the tales of America’s most notorious jewel thief, Jack “Murf the Surf” Murphy, speak on his fast times. Murphy talks to these inmates confidently and without apparent fear. It is a conditioned response (or lack of one) after serving 23 years in similar joints. I had joined Murphy and his group of prison visitors at the request of famed ’60s surfer, David Nuuhiwa, who called and asked if I wanted to spend my weekend behind bars. It was an uncomfortable thought, but I simply couldn’t say no to my childhood hero and so I committed 48 hours to the big house. I had first heard of Murphy in 1964 when I was a young surfer in high school. He was originally from Oceanside and had been surfing since the ’50s, before moving with his parents to Pittsburgh where,

a whole lot chubbier. Fine, I said again, irritably this time. Be like that. Then I heard soy milk was fat free and was amazed to find it tasted good. So on I went, happily indulging in soy lattes, feeling thoroughly smug and fatfree. Well, it may be fat-free, but somehow my chubbiness didn’t notice. Then the other symptoms of caffeine addiction began to show their vicious, tawdry little faces. First, it beat up my stomach. But if I backed off for 24 hours, my head wanted to explode and fall off my shoulders. There is something enormously sobering about finding you must ingest something in order not to have a screaming headache. Then recently, as I
threw myself into a serious diet, I was faced with skim milk lattes. Let me add here that I loathe skim milk, or blue water, as I like to petulantly call it. But skim milk was my only caloric option, it seemed. I switched to tea. Then the challenge became how strong I could brew my tea. I was up to three tea bags at a pop when I realized my teeth had begun to look like I chewed tobacco. Fetching. OK. So we solved the indigestion issue, heavy caffeine headaches and the calorie count question, but now have to deal with stained teeth. I’m currently conducting a daily experiment in my kitchen. I am trying to determine the perfect number of tea bags to avoid yucky teeth, yet banish the midafternoon sinking spells. I may need to apply for a grant.

Airport Innovation Lab accepting applications for accelerator program By Staff
SAN DIEGO — The Airport Innovation Lab at the San Diego International Airport is recruiting applicants for its fifth group of innovators to go through a 16-week accelerator program with a focus on health and safety. “COVID-19 taught us a lot about the need to create a safe environment for all that move through SAN,” said Kimberly J. Becker, Airport Authority President and CEO. “Our airport had to pivot and address the changing needs as County Health and Safety measures continued to be imposed on all businesses
and public entities. We are looking for innovative ideas that can help shape the travel experience of the future as we continue to adapt our systems and procedures at SAN to reduce the spread of the virus.” This fifth group will participate in one of two opportunity areas: touchless solutions or queue management solutions. Potential applicants have until October 4, 2020 to apply to the program which starts in November 2020 and will continue through March 2021. For more information and to apply, go to innovate. san.org.

according to Murphy, he received a tennis scholarship as well as a chair as a violinist with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra. But once a surfer... After a few brutal winters, Jack migrated to the warm waters of the Florida where he won the first two East Coast Surfing Championships. He taught surfing and scuba diving and, for a time, worked as a high diver in the Barnum & Bailey Circus. He made national news in the mid ’60s when he and two accomplices pulled off the biggest jewel heist in history and took home 24 precious gems from the J.P. Morgan Gem collection housed in the New York’s American Museum of Natural History. By the time I met Murphy, his rebellious days were behind him and he was a preacher of the gospel, standing and delivering to inmates on a nearly weekly basis. We stayed in touch for years after that, and whenever he was in San Diego we would get together for a while. The last time I saw Murphy was when I visited a prison in Fresno with him. He was still active, seemingly healthy and when I suggested he slow down as a concession to his turning 70, he joked, saying, “I want whatever you’re smoking.” As far as I know, he never did slow down. Over the years, I lost touch with Murphy and was told a while ago that he was in bad physical shape. I had been thinking about him when, on Sept. 12, a friend phoned to say that Jack Roland “Murf the Surf” Murphy had died at age 83. I already miss his sense of adventure and his commitment to men abandoned by society. I know I will never meet anyone like him. I hope there are waves in heaven, Murf. Aloha. Murf the Surf is survived by his wife, Kitten, and sons Shaun and Michael from a previous marriage.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO ADMINISTER ESTATE OF SARAH McKEE BROWN aka SALLY BROWN Case # 37-2020-00016155-PR-PWCTL To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of Sarah
McKee Brown aka Sally Brown. A Petition for Probate has been filed by Susan B. Rodriguez in the Superior Court of California, County of San Diego. The Petition for Probate requests that Susan B. Rodriguez be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent. The petition requests the decedent’s will and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the court. The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority. A hearing on the petition will be held in this court as follows: Date: Nov. 17, 2020; Time: 11:00 AM, Dept.: 504, located at: Superior Court of California, County of San Diego, 1100 Union St, San Diego CA 92101 Probate.

Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney. If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law. You may examine the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of

Sea for yourself: Whale watching, other ideas as county reopens hit the road e’louise ondash

an Diego County is opening up ever-so-slowly and businesses and attractions are looking to bring back new and former customers. That includes Oceanside Adventures (oceansidewhalewatching.com), which runs whale/dolphin-watching tours, wine cruises and private boat charters out of Oceanside Harbor. To celebrate the reopening, kids ride free with two paid adult tickets for whale-watching through October. What’s out there? Whales (fin, minke, humpback and the big blues) and four species of dolphin. Face masks required onboard. Birch Aquarium at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego (aquarium.ucsd.edu) is open with new procedures to keep everyone safe. Guest capacity is limited, so reservations (timed tickets) are necessary. Face coverings required for ages 2 and up. The aquarium is home to 6,000 sea creatures, including the wondrous sea dragons and an amazing rescued Loggerhead Sea Turtle from New Jersey who has a bionic prosthesis. Autumn arrives at different times in different places. In the Northeast and Midwest, the changing of colors takes place according to latitude; in the West, it’s all about altitude. To figure out what to see when and where, check out the Fall Foliage Prediction Map (smokymountains. com/fall-foliage-map), published annually by SmokyMountains.com (smokymountains.com). The link also provides some fifthgrade science to explain how the leaves change colors. Attention hikers: The ultimate trails challenge in the U.S. is taking shape, thanks to Rue McKenrick of

Bend, Oregon, who is working to create a route that circumvents the country. After through-hiking the “Triple Crown” — the Appalachian (2,190 miles), Pacific Crest (2,650 miles), and Continental Divide (3,100 miles) trails — he decided on another challenge. According to a story on AFAR (afar.com), McKenrick has sketched out a route that connects the Pa-
cific Crest Trail to the Appalachian Trail. Called the American Perimeter Trail, the 12,000-mile route is a work in progress. Check it out on Facebook (facebook. com /americanperimetertrailproject). And here are a few new products to make your travels, whenever they happen, a bit easier and better: • Old Trapper Zero Sugar Beef Jerky — I confess:
I’m not a jerky fan, but I passed this around to some active people who are and got a unanimous thumbs-up. They liked the taste and were delighted to find a portable snack that boasts no sugar, only 2 grams of carbs, 0.5 grams of fat and a generous 14 grams of protein per ounce. About $14/8-ounce package. Several flavors and sizes. oldtrapper.com. • Safe Catch — Speaking of portable protein: Safe Catch (safecatch.com), a seafood company that claims to be the only one in the industry that can test every fish for mercury, offers several flavors of tuna and salmon in travel-easy pouches. When energy bars wear out their welcome, try some sustainably caught, wild pink salmon (Citrus Dill, Italian Herb and Rosemary Dijon); and ahi or albacore packed in olive or avocado oil ($4.29/5 ounces). Safe Catch Elite is Paleo-, Whole30- and Non-GMO project-certified. Endorsed by the American Pregnancy Association. Some varieties

have no added salt. • HandiGuru — Make using hand sanitizer a little more convenient with HandiGuru (handiguru.com), a silicone bracelet that dispenses hand-sanitizer. It was invented by Santa Barbara artist-turned-entrepreneur Benjamin Anderson. Comes with a squeeze bottle and applicator tip for easy refilling. The bracelet, which eliminates the need for bulky bottles, also can be filled with sunscreen or bug repellent. You’ll never get caught without sanitizer. Comes in gray, blue and black. $12.95.

Thorn Brewing Co. says its success is because of you! Cheers! North County
Ryan Woldt This is the last in a series of interviews with some of the beverage industry workers who are working to bring beer to North County.
I
t is widely assumed beer representatives have one of the most fun jobs ever. They talk about beer all day, visit cool bars and sometimes get to sample the merchandise. Those duties also involve a lot of in-person interaction, time on the road and competition for sales locally. I reached out to several reps working to bring beer to North County to see how the coronavirus pandemic has impacted them. Taylor Allen is the Director of Sales for the continually growing Thorn Brewing Co. He began his journey behind the bar at the downtown Karl Strauss location where he fell in love with craft beer and the people both behind and supporting it. Then a stint with Coronado Brewing working the festival and event circuit led to a position with Latitude 33. He began as a beer rep and over five years worked his way up ranks managing sales and distribution for the entire brand. In December of 2019, he joined Thorn Brewing just in time for the unique challenge of selling beer

much as possible, etc. Anything else we should know? Taylor: Being a Beer Rep during all of this has been tough, but it is what we love to do. We enjoy meeting with people, sitting at our favorite bars, and talking beer with friends. When everything shut down it was devastating to our little beer community. Not only was everyone out of work, but we didn't get to see our industry friends anymore. Luckily we have seen an outpouring of support from everyone, and most breweries have been able to weather the storm. So shout out to anyone that’s bought a local six-pack, gotten a growler to-go, purchased merchandise or done anything to support your favorite breweries. It’s because of you we are able to continue doing what we love—sell San Diego beer!

Women in food, farming tell their stories in ‘Northern Harvest’ I rarely eat out since I mostly live alone and have a bookcase full of superb cookbooks...”
lick the plate david boylan
A
bout a year ago I was approached by Wayne State University Press to read a manuscript titled “Northern Harvest” by Emita Brady Hill and to reply with my feedback on whether it was worthy for publication. As it turned out, a good number of the women who told their stories to Emita Hill for the book had been guests on my radio show in northern Michigan and they all had great stories to share … which they were able to do more in-depth in the book. I gave it a big thumbsup and to my delight, the book was published and has been getting rave reviews, and not just among folks who live in Michigan. The women profiled have stories and struggles that are universal and worth reading for anyone who puts value on the hard work, dedication and passion it takes to operate a farm, start a restaurant or any other culinary related endeavor. I wanted to share a bit of Emita Brady Hill’s story, so I had her on my show and took some excerpts of that for this week’s column. You can listen to the interview at www.lick-the-plate.com. LTP: Tell me about your earliest interest/exposure to great food. EBH: I grew up in a house with “healthy” food that was totally bland, no spices, no onions, garlic, anything that “smelled.” Age 12, I was in France in a little restaurant with my mom and had my Julia Child culinary epiphany, and it was almost the same year she had hers. Lamb can be rare and juicy; haricots verts are a different species from green beans; baguettes are not like Wonder Bread. I never looked back. LTP: How and when did

your family start coming to northern Michigan and describe the difference between the culinary scene then and now. EBH: My mom and her siblings were brought by train to Long Lake where I now spend my summers before 1900. Her memories were so golden that decades later as a wife and mother living in Baltimore, she piled children and poodles (five of each) into her station wagon and drove west. My earliest memories of Long Lake are around age 3 or 4. My earliest culinary memories are that this region was a culinary wasteland. No restaurants to speak of until a few outliers —Tapewingo, Rowe Inn, Bécasse — in the early ’70s, and not one was in the city limits of Traverse City. LTP: How did the idea for the book come about? EBH: In 2015, I had published a book of oral histories, “Stories of Courage and Community,” told me by Bronx residents. I love interviewing people to get their stories. The first time I thought of interviewing women in the food business in Michigan was when I learned about Angela Macke’s tea farm and was blown away that a tea farm could exist and even thrive here in northern Michigan. And the title chosen by
the publisher, “Northern women in this region in Harvest,” was perfect once different aspects of the I began listening to these culinary world because women and their stories. LTP: Give an example of the diversity of the women you wrote about. EBH: I love all the stories and each one is unique. I laugh out loud every time I read again about Cheryl Kobernik’s adventures with the tractor and spreader as they kept breaking down. I marvel at Mimi and Jody’s encounters with the cocoa growers in Central America and their commitment to fair trade chocolate. I am overwhelmed by what Emily Umbarger has accomplished at Interlochen, transforming and greening the campus with multiple projects that are almost entirely grant funded. Awesome! I knew a number of
my daughter, Madeleine Vedel, knew them before I did from managing a cooking school in Provence. Among the 20 women are chefs, farmers, cheesemakers, chocolate makers, orchardists and one of the first CSAs in the region. “Northern Harvest” can be purchased online at Amazon or Barnes & Noble,
or order it through your local bookstore. LTP: What are some of your favorite places to eat in northwest Michigan? EBH: I rarely eat out since I mostly live alone and have a bookcase full of superb cookbooks, not to mention my daughter, who is an accomplished French chef. But the best meals I’ve enjoyed in the past decade — before and since I start interviewing the amazing chefs — were at Stella Trattoria, Cook’s House, Martha’s in Sutton’s Bay, and the Rowe Inn in Ellsworth. The one time we ate out this summer was memorable and was at la Bécasse, and I’m thinking there are still a lot of amazing culinary stories to be culled in this region.

Making wine at Carruth Cellars’ 10th anniversary celebration taste of wine frank mangio
C
arruth Cellars, with Adam Carruth at the helm, is the largest urban winery in San Diego County with four bustling locations in Solana Beach, Carlsbad, Little Italy and a new production facility across from Oceanside Airport. In the past 10 years, Carruth Cellars has grown to operate three tasting room locations, bottling some 20,000 cases of a wide variety of Carruth wines, primarily sourcing grapes from Northern and Central California. The Carlsbad tasting room will soon offer a small plate menu with the addition of a new kitchen, which should be serving by the end of the year. The new Oceanside location will transform into “The Hangar” with the addition of a production brewery and beer and wine garden, set to open in 2021. The winery has been rewarded with 15 award

with leading winery client credentials. Processing includes pressing, fermenting, aging in tanks and oak barrels and bottling for eventual sales. The goal that day was to get the 12 tons of fruit out of the bins and pressed, then passed by large hosing to waiting barrels. After a quick tour of the production equipment and an even quicker stop at a bin full of Chardonnay grapes for a taste of the newly arrived fruit, we dodged some fruit bin-moving vehicles and arrived at the red wine barrel storage area for our highlight of the day, barrel tasting of five reds as they got set to be bottled for sale in the weeks and months ahead. 1st tasting, 2019 Russian River Zinfandel with splashes of 2018 and 2019

All month long, Carruth Cellars’ three tasting rooms will be celebrating the winery’s 10th anniversary by giving away raffle drawing prizes each week. Each is open daily. Two grand prizes will be awarded at the end of the celebration. Complete details on the Carruth website, carruthcellars.com.

Sojourn Cellars releases Fall 2020 lineup When I saw the Sojourn Cellars Fall 2020 lineup, I quickly reminisced about the Spring 2020 launch party that Senior Editor Frank and I attended at the Ruth’s Chris Del Mar location. Guests were treated to Sojourn Cellars Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Cabernet Sauvignon varietals along with Ruth’s Chris small bites, including Angus sliders. Unfortunately, COVID-19 is preventing release parties for the Fall 2020 launch, but the show must go on with or without soirees for the Fall 2020 release! Being from Sonoma, one of the Pinot Noir capitals of the world, Sojourn would be expected to continue its tradition of killer Pinots — and it has. This release features exclusive small-lot bottlings of 2018 Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from exceptional Sonoma vineyards, including 94-point rated Ridgetop and Riddle Vineyard Pinot Noirs. Sojourn also has allocations of its extraordinary 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon from Oakville Ranch Vineyard available.

SEPT. 18, 2020
ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Personal matters claim a good deal of the Lamb’s time in the early part of the week. But by midweek, pragmatic considerations (work, school, job-seeking, etc.) begin to take priority. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) The seasonal shift ignites the Bovine’s creative aspects. You could do well if you try to combine your penchant for innovation with the more pragmatic demands of the week. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Ideas come easily to you this week. And never mind that some might suggest they’re unworkable and/or impractical. It’s your vision that counts. Work them out and see what turns up. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Personal matters continue to dominate the early part of the week. By midweek, more workaday issues once again begin to emerge. Balance your time to give both the attention they need. LEO (July 23 to August 22) A new contact could provide an expanded opportunity. But be sure you get all the facts before you consider signing on. Ask questions, and be wary if you don’t get the right answers. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) An unexpected development could cause some supposedly resolved disagreements to reignite. Deal with the situation before it leads to some really serious problems.
LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) A clash of work-linked viewpoints needs to be discussed openly, honestly and calmly by all concerned before it can impede progress on an ongoing project. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) The Scorpion’s pragmatic side helps you accept the possibility that a change of plans might be the wise thing to do. Be sure to weigh all your considerations carefully. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Some people might not take no for an answer. Never mind. Keep your resolve if you’re sure you don’t want to be involved in a potentially sticky situation. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) All other facts and figures aside, it’s what you learn about potential colleagues that can be most helpful in assessing any decisions you’re likely to make regarding a new project. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) You might want to reconsider some of your outside commitments if they continue to demand more time than you can spare. Be honest with yourself when making a decision. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Pay attention to that inner voice of Piscean wisdom counseling you to remove those rose-colored glasses and take an honest look at any decisions you might face this week. BORN THIS WEEK: You have a penchant for persuasion that would make you a fine candidate for a political career. © 2020 King Features Syndicate, Inc.
