Eddie Jones

In reversal, Oceanside

Developer concessions prompt Figueroa to flip

By Samantha Nelson

OCEANSIDE — A City Council majority unexpectedly approved the controversial Eddie Jones warehouse project last week, reversing its previous denial of the project in the spring.

The City Council denied a permit for the controversial project in a narrow 3-2 vote in May, and was set to confirm that decision in a consent agenda item on Aug. 6. However, the project developer came forward with additional changes to the project, including another proposed reduction of truck bays from 34 to 28, plus an offer to contribute $2.5 million for the City Council to spend on park and capital improvement projects around the city.

Jimmy Figueroa was the sole councilmember to change his previous vote from May 21 after hearing the new concessions. He also favored the project after developer and applicant Adam Robinson, founder and president of RPG, estimated that the project would bring on approximately 1,200 jobs during construction and an estimated 500 permanent jobs once the project was completed and had tenants secured.

Robinson added that the warehouse is a light industrial project designed to attract more higher tech and manufacturing jobs to the area.

“At its core, this project is more than just real estate – it’s about job creation, economic opportunity, and responsible reinvestment in our built environment,” Robinson said.

Figueroa noted that the city currently falls behind neighboring Vista and Carlsbad in its jobs-to-housing ratio. He also acknowledged that the project is not a “dis-

Swami’s Cafe closing inland Encinitas location on

By Cameron Adams

ENCINITAS — Swami’s Cafe will close one of its Encinitas locations in mid-September.

The inland Encinitas location along Encinitas Boulevard near the intersection with El Camino Real will close on Sept. 15, according to an announcement on the Swami’s Instagram page.

The post thanked customers for “all the good vibes and support over the years.”

Owner Jaime Osuna opened the first Swami’s Cafe on Highway 101 in 2005 and has since expanded to 10 locations throughout San Di-

ego County.

Sept. 15

Dani Brown, a host at the inland Encinitas location who was acting manager on Monday, said the reason for the closure was due to the current lease expiring and the landlord raising the rent.

She added that employees had yet to hear about how the closure would impact them. Brown also said Monday she had not heard whether another tenant had been identified.

The property is part of a suite of addresses owned by Encinitas Village II LLC, according to the San Diego County Assessor’s Office.

O’side OKs dispensary program

City to allow four cannabis storefronts

By Samantha Nelson OCEANSIDE

— After more than two years of discussions, a council majority has finalized its decision to allow up to four storefront cannabis dispensaries to operate within the city.

Staff previously presented the storefront cannabis licensing program in June, however City Council sent it back to the drawing board with a few modifications to the licensing process, which include:

• Eliminating the requirement to retain a future site during the licensing process,

• Rewarding businesses with a proven track record of abiding by collective bargaining agreements, and

• Instituting even stricter separations from schools than previously proposed.

Under the modifications, dispensaries will not be allowed in any case within 1,000 feet from a middle or high school, or 550 feet from other public or private schools.

Youth access to dispensaries was a particular concern for several council members as well as members of the public. Many also urged the council to consider prohibiting dispensaries from areas near where children tend to congregate after school as well.

“Access is especially an issue for me,” said Mayor Esther Sanchez, who was the lone vote against the ordinance on Aug. 6.

Councilmember Jimmy Figueroa, who voted in favor, was also concerned about access for youth.

Both Figueroa and Sanchez were also concerned about the placement of dispensaries in impoverished neighborhoods, noting how past anti-drug enforcement activity and current uses such as liquor stores have disproportionately harmed those communities over the years.

Councilmember Rick Robinson pointed out that access to illicit substances has always been a problem for the youth.

“If walking by a store is enough to cause someone to fall, they are going to fall anyway,” he said.

Figueroa noted when he worked as the executive director for Operation HOPE-North County, a homeless shelter for single women and families in Vista, the taxes from their operating dispensaries greatly benefited the shelter. He suggested a portion of the taxes generated from cannabis in Oceanside be used

for drug-abuse prevention.

City Manager Jonathan Borrego indicated that staff plans to bring forward an item that would formalize how the city would spend tax revenue from cannabis businesses, which would dedicate a “significant amount toward prevention and youth programs.”

Oceanside’s cannabis retail business tax is currently set at 5%, which is slightly less than Vista’s 7% rate, which is collected from 11 dispensaries. Vista generated nearly $7 million from its dispensaries in 2023, according to city staff.

Applicants are also expected to donate a portion of their income to programs that primarily serve the youth.

Dispensaries will only be allowed in some commercial and industrial areas of the city, and prohibited from anywhere west of Coast Highway, in the

downtown district and the Mission San Luis Rey commercial district.

Deputy Mayor Eric Joyce suggested the council consider opening up Coast Highway to dispensaries at a future meeting.

The ordinance also establishes application procedures, fees, and priority licensing for the city’s two existing operators — MedLeaf and Left Coast.

Applicants will be expected to pay more than $12,000 for the application process, which will include a completeness screening, application review, city manager review and city manager recommendation, and nearly $13,000 in annual compliance inspection and financial audits, among other fees. Non-operating license renewals would cost nearly $3,000, and operating license renewals will cost more than $3,000.

Applicants will also undergo background checks and a live scan by the Oceanside Police Department.

The two existing businesses will be fast-tracked for approval by skipping the city manager interview but must still meet the minimum qualifications. Should they fail to do so, their space in the application process would be opened to the public at a later date as determined by staff.

Dispensaries will be limited to signage that displays only their name, and prohibited from including images like green leaves or green crosses.

Staff plans to open the application window in the fall and winter and have licenses issued by spring. City Council is expected to review conditional use permits by Fall 2026, and businesses must become operational between 2027 and 2028.

Arts panel picks ‘Ring’ for future Veterans Park

By Cameron Adams CARLSBAD

— The City of Carlsbad hopes to use the high point at Veterans Memorial Park to create a space for thought.

Gordon Huether, a Napa-based artist, said his design — called “The Ring” — would both welcome visitors approaching the park due to its size and placement, as well as provide the opportunity to observe and reflect for those looking out at nature.

“What I was really trying to do was frame a really beautiful, contemplative view that you just want to stop and sit and enjoy — maybe even meditate a little bit,” Huether said.

The view west through the center opening of the art piece would allow the Agua Hedionda Lagoon to serve as a reflecting pool, taking advantage of the natural setting.

The Carlsbad Arts Commission unanimously approved the final design at a public meeting on Aug. 7.

Veterans Memorial Park is an in-development,

93.7-acre park that would be bound by Faraday Avenue to the south and west as well as part of Whitman Way to the north, according to city documents.

Once completed, it will be the city’s largest park and over half of the site will remain undisturbed habitat.

Nick Stupin, parks planning manager for the City of Carlsbad, said that the park would have two hemispheres — to the north and south — as well as large, connective pathways throughout the park.

Each hemisphere would have its own parking, playground and restroom facilities. In between the hubs would be a natural, rustic playground. The southern hub would be built around a nature-inspired bike park, according to Stupin.

The northern hub would be built around the Memorial Plaza that aims to include several displays honoring veterans and service members of the six mil-

Irony in failure of environmental bill

There’s been deep irony in Sacramento this summer, as some normally environmentally oriented state senators deep-sixed what might have been the year’s most important potential new environmental law.

At issue was whether oil companies could be held liable for damage from future wildfires caused at least in part by climate change.

The state Senate Judiciary Committee vote on the measure came just two days after oil giant Chevron was held liable by a Louisiana jury for $744.6 million to restore damage to Louisiana’s coastal wetlands.

delighted by defeat of the bill (SB222). “I applaud the members of the Senate Judiciary Committee who stood up for a more affordable California and voted down this unconstitutional measure,” said Kyla Christofferson Powell, president and CEO of the Justice Association of California, which does not disclose all its financial backers but has had past support from the California Association of Realtors.

High cost of calling someone a NIMBY

By Mike Lewis

If you’ve spoken up at a city council meeting lately, you may have noticed something strange.

If you raise questions about fire safety, infrastructure or water supply, you’re not met with dialogue, you’re met with a label: “NIMBY.”

Not a neighbor. Not a taxpayer. Not a citizen. Just a “NIMBY.”

This label is more than lazy rhetoric. It’s a calculated attempt to discredit residents who dare to question the wisdom of Sacramento’s high-density housing mandates. And it’s part of a larger strategy to make it politically toxic to care about your neighborhood.

The YIMBY movement, short for “Yes In My Back Yard”, and now also known as WIMBY (Wall Street In My Backyard) likes to claim the moral high ground. They speak of equity and affordability while pushing policies that, in practice, produce thousands of market-rate rental units, often in cities already grappling with overburdened infrastructure.

expanded sewer systems, stormwater drainage, road maintenance, increased fire protection, water reliability upgrades, and school capacity.

But under many of these “by-right” development policies, developers aren’t required to fund

Opposing poorly planned density is not immoral. Pretending we can pile people into high-cost rentals with no investment in schools, infrastructure or public services — that’s what’s immoral.

tending we can pile people into high-cost rentals with no investment in schools, infrastructure or public services — that’s what’s immoral.

It’s time we stop letting name-calling drive public policy. Residents aren’t against housing. They’re against being steamrolled by policies that ignore ground truth realities.

A community’s ability to say, “This project doesn’t fit here, for these reasons,” is not obstruction, it’s stewardship.

And let’s not forget the irony: The very people calling for dense rental development in the name of affordability are often the same ones fighting to block single-family starter homes in other areas, because they don’t align with the ideology of “build up, not out.”

In doing so, they’re not fighting for ownership opportunities or long-term affordability. They’re fighting for density as a virtue in and of itself.

But density isn’t a moral category. It’s a planning tool, and one that must be used thoughtfully, not ideologically.

The case was the first of many pending against oil companies which have supposedly lied about whether their policies led to land loss along that state’s coast, reaching east from the mouth of the Mississippi River.

Keeping alive the somewhat similar bill to allow for assessing damages after California fires would have required seven votes in committee, but it only got five, from Democrats Scott Wiener of San Francisco, Ben Allen of Santa Monica, John Laird of Santa Clara, Henry Stern of Los Angeles and Akilah Weber Pierson of La Mesa.

Several senators avoided going on the record directly against this bill by abstaining from voting on it, as good as a no.

The bill was strongly opposed by both business and labor groups, which contended it would substantially raise the cost of living in California. One study was presented by the California Center for Jobs and the Economy, a nominally non-partisan think tank founded by business interests that was established by the California Business Roundtable.

Wiener and other supporters had hoped his bill would become a model for other states where oil companies have lied about effects of climate change. Said Wiener, “Californians are paying a devastating price for the climate disasters that have and will continue to wreak havoc on our state.”

Noting that the January firestorms which devastated large parts of Los Angeles County occurred far outside normal fire seasons, Wiener added that “Tens of thousands of people in Southern California have lost their homes and large swaths of their community, and it happened in the middle of winter.”

He added that fires are not the only climate-related disasters afflicting California, saying mudslides and floods are also increasing. Meanwhile, he insists, there is no mechanism here to charge those damages to the parties most responsible for them – including oil companies.

The promise is affordability. The result is investor-friendly projects that produce mostly rentals owned by Wall Street corporations or billionaire landlords, with the intention of supporting their vision of a renter society.

In comparison to apartments, few real homes for real families are being constructed, and even fewer that are affordable.

Meanwhile, local communities are left holding the bag. Let’s talk about that bag.

When hundreds of units are fast-tracked into a built-out city like Encinitas, someone has to pay for the

those upgrades proportionally, or at all. They walk away with their profits, while residents are left with the consequences.

Prudent inquiry isn’t opposition. It’s common sense. And calling it “NIMBYism” doesn’t make the problems go away.

Worse, these labels shut down nuanced discussion and vilify anyone who doesn't subscribe to the state’s central government approach to planning. It’s a dangerous precedent: disagree with the orthodoxy, and you’re morally suspect.

But here’s the truth: Opposing poorly planned density is not immoral. Pre-

Communities deserve a seat at the table when it comes to shaping their future. Local input is not the enemy of housing; it’s the key to getting housing right.

We can build more homes and protect the character, safety and integrity of the places people already call home. But we’ll never get there if we continue to demonize those who speak up.

So, the next time someone calls you a NIMBY, ask them this: Who benefits from them shutting you up?

Mike Lewis is an Encinitas resident

That study contended, “Businesses facing massive litigation costs (like those assessed at least temporarily against Chevron) will pass expenses on to consumers.” That, it said, could raise gasoline costs to $7.38 per gallon and raise electric rates 65% for industrial users.

Wiener and environmentalists backing the bill could muster no solid evidence against this contention, so Democratic senators like Tom Umberg of Anaheim and Maria Elena Durazo of Los Angeles withheld their votes.

Meanwhile, the Environmental Voters of California argued that assessing oil companies for damage they indirectly cause would save enough in insurance premiums to make up for any other costs. The majority of the committee did not find that convincing.

Business interests were

All this talk makes it completely certain a similar measure will be back before the Legislature next year. Said John Carmouche, lead plaintiff lawyer in the landmark Louisiana case, “No company is big enough to walk away scot-free.”

Carmouche, of course, did not participate in the negotiations that forced California consumers to pay $21 million into the state’s Wildfire Fund to cover still unassessed costs from fires caused by power company equipment. No, companies like Southern California Edison and Pacific Gas & Electric did not quite “walk away scot-free,” but they came close to achieving that corporate aim.

The bottom line: If next year’s outcome on the inevitable attempt at a similar bill is to be different, there will have to be more hard information on the savings a law like Wiener’s might bring.

Audit: Financial issues at CCAF, other foundations

Scrutiny follows ’24 investigation by HS students

By Leo Place

REGION — Nearly a year after two Canyon Crest Academy students published a report alleging a major lack of financial transparency from their school’s foundation, a formal audit has backed up several of their claims and also found issues with the financial practices of the foundations at other high schools.

On Aug. 7, the San Dieguito Union High School District reviewed the results of an audit from firm CWDL, which was hired by the district last November to examine the financials of the school foundations at Canyon Crest Academy, San Dieguito Academy, Torrey Pines High School and La Costa Canyon High School.

The audit was spurred by an investigative report published by now-graduated CCA students Litong Tian and Kevin Wang, alleging financial mismanagement by the CCA Foundation. Soon after, the district board opted for an audit of all four high school foundations.

ly to bring back a discussion about a potential MOU that could be entered into with the foundations. Several community members also supported this idea.

“I think our district owes it to these foundations to help them, to set up policies [and] the MOUs,” said trustee Rimga Viskanta.

‘We were right’

Tian and Wang, the former students who authored the investigative report last fall, said they feel vindicated after the release of the audit.

Their original report highlighted concerns about high fees for clubs that exceed those of other foundations, a lack of required salary disclosures for executives and a lack specificity regarding how funds are spent.

ruin anyone’s life, no. I want to make this organization work better, because we all know how important their work is.”

CCAF has historically taken 25% of each donation made to a specific club and allocated it to a general fund for the program for either athletics, arts or STEM, depending on what type of club it is.

CCAF also takes an endof-year fee from each club, which varies depending on the total revenue raised, for executive management and salaries.

CWDL’s report outlined various areas for improvement in the financial practices of all four foundations, as well as the overall operating relationship between the foundations and the district.

The firm issued an opinion that the LCC, SDA and TPHS foundations appear to conform with generally accepted accounting principles.

For the CCA Foundation, CWDL issued a modified opinion stating that they were unable to ensure

The nonprofit foundations are run largely by parent volunteers and support the high school athletics, arts and STEM programming via donations. While the foundations operate on school campuses, they function independently of the district and have their own boards of directors.

the foundation complied with these principles due to the absence of any reporting or tracking of in-kind (noncash) donations.

That includes calculating the approximate monthly value of the district property that is utilized by the foundations for offices and operations, and reporting that as revenue, said CWDL audit partner John Dominguez.

“Ultimately, we did believe that was a financial element that was required that was not present,” Dominguez said.

CWDL also noted that there is no formal memorandum of understanding

between the district and any of the school foundations regarding their operational relationship, including expectations for financial reporting and use of district facilities, which can lead to inconsistencies and confusion.

The firm strongly recommended that the district enter into MOUs with each of the foundations to outline expectations.

All of the trustees except for Jane Lea Smith participated in the discussion of the audit. Smith chose to recuse herself due to her past service on the CCAF board.

The remaining four trustees agreed unanimous-

Tian and Wang said their intent was to highlight issues so that the foundation could ultimately serve students and their clubs better, and increase trust from donors. They noted that after publishing their investigation, they faced strong backlash last fall from CCA Principal Brett Killeen, who called their report “grossly erroneous and misleading” in a statement last year, as well as foundation leaders and community members.

“We were right on so many issues,” said Tian. “My goal was to make sure that the CCAF functions better for students and for the community. My goal was not to decrease the donations, to

The audit found that overall, the percentage of donations that go toward a general program fee or executive fee is between 10%25% at CCAF, compared to the range of 5%-10% at the LCC, TPHS and SDA foundations.

Dominguez said this is uncommonly high for a foundation, and that setting a consistent fee between all the foundations would be more practical.

“The lack of standardization among Foundation entities within the District diminishes transparency and could lead to questions regarding fee justification and consistency in donor communications,” CWDL said in their report.

CWDL also noted that the CCA and LCC foundations both failed to report the salaries of their exec-

Esco OKs lease for ag-tech hub

By Samantha Nelson ESCONDIDO

Dieguito Believes in the Power of Community

— Over the next few years, a dilapidated city building on Quince Street that has sat vacant for over a decade will be transformed into a regional center intended to create more job opportunities in the agricultural and agriculture technology fields.

Last month, City Council unanimously approved a lease agreement with The VINE Institute, a California-based nonprofit that fosters innovation in the state’s agriculture and food systems, to launch the first-ever Escondido AgX Innovation Hub at 455 N. Quince St.

the third year, the hub plans to reach full occupancy and transition to longer-term operations.

The hub received unanimous support from City Council on July 23 and backing from local organizations, farmers and educators. Cal State San Marcos and the San Diego Farm Bureau sent letters of support urging the hub’s approval.

Agriculture in San Diego “requires farmers to take innovative approaches in order to stay in business and the ag-tech would assist growers with this,” the Farm Bureau’s letter states.

The San Diego Food Hub, operated by Foodshed Collective, which aggregates local produce from farmers to distribute food to those in need, will be the anchor tenant for the new AgX project.

The hub will serve as a space to support local farmers and other entrepreneurs as they create, attract and retain businesses and higher-wage jobs in the agriculture and ag-tech fields.

Gabe Youtsey, chief innovation officer for UCANR, said the vision for the hub is to continue the state’s longstanding food and agriculture sector across food-producing regions like Escondido, which has a longstanding agricultural history, while also building up ag-tech as a tradable sector.

Center was created with one clear goal in mind: “to provide excellent, compassionate veterinary care in a place that feels welcoming and calm.” The full-service animal hospital offers everything from wellness exams and urgent care to surgery, acupuncture, endoscopy, and echocardiograms.

“Whether your pet needs a routine check-up or emergency care, we strive to get them seen as quickly and comfortably as possible. Reducing stress for both pets and their people is one of our top priorities.”

Dr. Halsey sees a strong alignment between the hospital’s values and those of Encinitas itself. “We chose Encinitas because it shares our values: kindness, connection, and community. There’s something truly

“I view this hub as the Southern California hub for the state’s ag-tech efforts,” Youtsey said. “This is really the flagship headquarters for Southern California agtech.”

According to staff, the low lease rate reflects The VINE Institute’s projected $1.3 million investment in renovating the blighted 50,000-square foot building next to the Escondido Transit Center.

The institute will act as the hub’s lead operator, manage all subleases, and be responsible for utilities, permits and all site improvements.

office space and common space. The institute will also hire staff, including a general manager and/or executive director to manage day-today operations, and implement a longer-term sustainable financial model through the recruitment of tenants and startup companies. It will also identify grant funding and private sector investments into the hub.

Ellie Igoe, operations coordinator for Foodshed, said the cooperative will invest over half a million dollars to help develop the site — in addition to a beginner farmer training center and incubator farm in the San Pasqual Valley near the Escondido city border.

“We’re training new and beginning farmers, and the AgX center will be a place where they can move their food,” Igoe said.

With summer in full swing, Dr. Halsey reminds pet owners to keep their furry friends cool, hydrated and protected from the heat. “Never leave pets in the car, avoid hot pavement, and make sure fresh water is always available. It’s also a great time to come in for a wellness check and ensure flea, tick, and heartworm preventives are up to date.”

Work began on the hub three years ago when staff first presented plans to launch a pilot ag-tech incubator on city-owned property.

The lease will cost The VINE Institute $10 per year over the next three years. The lease allows for three extension options for a total of 15 years.

The city also agreed to a $500,000 public service agreement with The VINE Institute in startup funding for the hub’s creation. In June, City Council approved $250,000 in the city’s 20252026 operating budget for professional services at the hub, which will be disbursed upon execution of the lease agreement.

The initial startup funding will be used to develop engineering and architectural design plans for interior improvements, including furnishings, equipment for its food hub, an ag-tech incubator, a lab, testing kitchen,

The other $250,000 will be disbursed after the institute presents its first annual report to City Council and demonstrates substantial progress toward full operations, which is expected to take approximately three years.

The first year will focus on facility and program planning and design, diversifying funding sources, building and operations, and establishing an advisory council to ensure proper oversight of the hub. The second year will aim to grow its programs and partnerships, continue to work on operation and expand revenue. By

According to Youtsey, the hub could also serve local high school students interested in pursuing the agriculture and ag-tech sectors — particularly through farm robotics.

This could particularly benefit students who were in San Pasqual High School’s agriculture program, which the school district intends to shut down due to lack of interest on-site. Students who want to stay in the district’s agriculture program would likely have to transfer across town to Escondido High School, which operates a robust agriculture program along with a farm on campus.

San Marcos man gets 12 years for fatal

By City News Service

REGION — A man who drove drunk and collided with another vehicle at high speeds on state Route 163 near Kearny Mesa, killing four men in the other car, was sentenced Tuesday to 12 years in state prison.

Aleim Garcia Alavez, 25, of San Marcos, plead-

ed guilty to four counts of gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated for the July 19, 2024, crash, which occurred at around 1:30 a.m. on southbound SR163, near Interstate 805.

According to the California Highway Patrol, a Toyota Tacoma pickup truck driven by Alavez rear-ended a Toyo-

ta Prius, causing it to veer out of control and crash, ejecting the four victims: Faruk Cetin, 27; Mahsun Dursun, 23; Abdurrezak Hizmali, 27; and Baris Savas, 25.

DUI crash

Deputy District Attorney Spencer Sharpe said that along with driving under the influence, Alavez’s vehicle was going over 100 mph prior to impact.

The crash overturned Alavez’s truck and the prosecutor said that after a good Samaritan pulled him from his vehicle, Alavez was seen tossing alcohol containers over the edge of the freeway bridge.

The four victims were friends from Turkey.

Suspect arrested in rash of Oceanside brush fires

By City News Service

OCEANSIDE — Authorities have arrested a suspect in a string of small brush fires in Oceanside’s Loma Alta neighborhood.

The suspect — whom the Oceanside police and fire departments did not publicly identify — was arrested at 1:20 a.m. Saturday “while in the act of setting a fire,” officials said in a news release.

Both departments investigated the fires, believed to have been intentionally

set northwest of the intersection of El Camino Real and Oceanside Boulevard, officials added. Authorities were reviewing evidence “related to 14 separate fires that began on or around July 30, 2025.”

The pattern and proximity of the blazes resulted in investigators conducting surveillance of the area, officials said.

“At this time, investigators believe the suspect acted alone,” authorities added.

Encinitas settles with ex-worker

Said complaint led to firing; gets $65K

By Leo Place ENCINITAS —

The city of Encinitas has agreed to pay a $65,000 settlement to a former city employee who alleged she was retaliated against after filing an internal harassment complaint.

The settlement, finalized May 21, comes after the employee filed a complaint with the California Civil Rights Department in March. She said she experienced harassment on the basis of her religion, sex, sexual orientation and disability by an unnamed manager, and was ultimately terminated after filing an internal complaint and seeking accommodation.

This harassment included comments and looks on a weekly basis that made her uncomfortable, such as comments about her breasts, per the complaint. The manager would also make daily comments referencing the employee’s disability, including that she was “messy and a procrastinator,” and ask invasive questions.

After informing the manager that these comments made her uncomfortable, to no avail, the employee said that she verbally reported the harassment to an unnamed department director in the city and that no action was taken.

She then advanced her complaint to Human Resources, and she was placed under a different supervisor, the complaint said.

Following her internal harassment complaint with the city, the employee said she was retaliated against by being passed up for a promotion and denied other opportunities and assignments.

For example, the employee was restricted from attending a meeting with the finance department that she was supposed to facilitate. A colleague was also given a promotion to a position that the employee was previously told would be hers prior to filing her complaint, and she was not given the chance to compete for the position.

Incompetency weighed for son charged with murder

By Leo Place VISTA —

A

forensic

psychiatrist has concluded that Malcolm Pope, who has been accused of murdering his mother at her Vista home, is not mentally competent to stand trial, with the San Diego County District Attorney’s Office pushing for additional analysis.

The findings of the report by Dr. Michael Takamura, an expert who has assisted in various evaluations for criminal cases in San Diego County, were shared in court at the San Diego Central Courthouse on Monday.

Pope, 27, has been in custody since April and is facing a first-degree murder charge in the death of his mother, Mireya Pope. He has pleaded not guilty.

On the morning of April 23, law enforcement was called to a home on North Citrus Avenue in Vista for a wellness check and discovered Mireya Pope, who was deceased with obvious signs of trauma.

Law enforcement also discovered that Malcolm Pope had barricaded himself in the bathroom at the home, leading to a multihour SWAT standoff before he was finally taken into custody. Mireya Pope is believed to have died between April 22 and 23.

A finding of mentally incompetent to stand trial means the person is unable to understand the nature of the criminal proceedings and/or unable to assist counsel in the conduct of a defense in a rational manner.

During the Monday hearing, Deputy District Attorney Alanna Platt shared concerns about the conclusion of the report, and asked for the court to authorize a second evaluation.

“It’s clear from the evaluator’s conclusions that the defendant has a rational understanding of the charges against him and the proceedings against him. He’s clearly intelligent, and from the evaluation, he understands the role of my office, the judge, his attorney, and he wants to plead not guilty,” Platt said.

San Diego County Superior Court Judge Kristopher S. Young declined to order another evaluation.

He stated that he had no authority to do so, noting that there was no indication that Pope was malingering or exaggerating any symptoms of mental illness in the evaluation.`

However, he said the District Attorney’s Office is welcome to hire its own expert to evaluate Pope and then present the conclusions regarding his competency to stand trial.

“The charges are quite serious, and so the court understands the people’s position, but I don’t have, I don’t believe, statutory authority for that, and I don’t feel that we’re going to start giving second opinions, but you’re entitled to go and hire your own expert,” Young said.

The mental competency hearing has been delayed to Aug. 28 to give the DA’s Office time to decide whether to hire its own forensic expert.

Pope’s public defender did not disagree with Takamura’s conclusion of mental incompetency.

Mireya Pope, 60, worked for several years in local schools, including as a health clerk at Solana Highlands Elementary, a program instructor at the Solana Beach School District Child Development Center, and an assistant teacher at LePort Montessori School.

State agency, homeowner spar over lagoon access

Carlsbad resident, CCC dispute terms of 1998 permit

By Leo Place

CARLSBAD

— An ongoing dispute is reaching a head between a Carlsbad homeowner and the California Coastal Commission regarding requirements for public access on his property, after the city of Carlsbad asserted in a letter that the state commission has no basis for several of its claims.

The central disagreement of the multiyear controversy is over the terms of a 1998 Coastal Development Permit, which was granted to property owner John Levy for the construction of his home, known as Levyland, along the Buena Vista Lagoon near the Carlsbad-Oceanside border.

Levy, who spent many years living in New Zealand and has since moved back to Carlsbad, built his house in 1999 and was required by the California Coastal Commission to abide by several conditions to protect the environment due to the site’s proximity to the lagoon.

ficials claiming that he has permanently locked gates that are supposed to be open to the public.

While a gate was put into place, it has remained locked and has never been opened to the public, and vegetation behind the gate has become overgrown due to a lack of maintenance.

“I well and truly met all of those conditions 27 years ago,” Levy said, noting that he has provided documentation to the commission showing that he has complied with the conditions.

The commission first began reaching out in 2017, when they learned that Levy had been allowing weddings at the property. He ceased wedding operations at the site soon after, but said the commission continued reaching out and alleging other issues.

Levy said that he was found to be in compliance with all of the permit conditions soon after his house was complete. More recently, however, Levy said the Coastal Commission has been claiming that he has been out of compliance for years, and started to threaten major fines.

The most recent notice came in October, with commission staff alleging that Levy has violated several conditions outlined in the original 1998 Coastal Development Permit. These alleged violations include blocking public access to the lagoon and installing an unpermitted pickleball court.

Commission officials also said Levy failed to remove invasive plant species in the area, revegetate the wetland buffer area, or install light-shielding fencing as required.

“Nearly all of the Coastal Act violations at issue

here have been outstanding for many years, and they involve not only unpermitted development, but also violations of the permit conditions of two [Coastal Development Permits], and of the terms of two recorded public access easements,” Commission Executive Director Kate Huckelbridge said in the notice.

Lagoon access

The issue of public access at two different locations has been the principal focus of the commission’s recent enforcement against Levy, with commission of-

MORE THAN A RESIDENCE—

When the commission approved the permit for the house, Levy was required to implement a small 300-foot lagoon public access trail that would be accessible via a gate from dawn to dusk. The site is located along the lagoon at the north end of the main North Beach trail area, within a 100-foot wetland buffer west of the Levyland house.

Levy was also required to make an offer of dedication of this lagoon access trail to the city of Carlsbad; however, Levy said that the city of Carlsbad has never accepted the dedication of the lagoon access trail, meaning no one has taken responsibility for maintaining or operating the trail.

The commission has demanded Levy to open this gate to provide the required public access, but Levy said the city would first need to accept the dedication in order for the public to use the trail.

He described himself as the “ham in the sandwich” between the city and the Coastal Commission in this situation.

“This whole notion that I’m blocking public access is just absolutely untrue,” Levy said. “I know I’m well within my rights of what’s happened here, and I know

utive directors to the IRS, with CCAF failing to report from 2018-2020 and LCC failing to report in the 202324 year.

The lack of IRS salary disclosures from former CCAF executive director Joanne Couvrette was a main focus of the students’ investigative report last fall. At the time, foundation leaders said they believed they were not required to submit this information based on the expertise of their CPA firm involved in completing their tax filings.

Couvrette left CCAF in May 2024 after 12 years as executive director. She is currently suing the foundation and the school district for alleged wrongful termination, claiming she was fired in response to a Facebook post she made about pro-Palestine demonstrators.

I-9 forms for CCAF em-

ployees were also missing or not accounted for, the audit report said. In addition, the audit found material variances in beginning balances from the foundation, without explanation or support-

ing documentation to explain the inconsistencies.

“The recently released audit report highlights many glaring issues within the CCA Foundation’s practices,” said Wang. “In addition

to the high 25% fees and missing salary disclosures, there were a dozen more problems — a shocking lack of internal controls, balance discrepancies, missing wage documentation and a lack of clarity regarding the renting out of school facilities.”

CCAF has already begun to make some changes since the audit was released, including submitting the missing salary disclosure forms as well as reducing the percentage of each restricted donation that is placed into a general program fund from 25% to 20%.

Regina Twomey, the new CCAF executive director, reiterated that the foundation’s objective is to support students every day.

“The point of an audit is to find issues. If there were no issues, I would be concerned,” Twomey said. “We’re working closely with the school and the district to correct those findings.”

Wang said while this is a good first step, the foun-

dation needs to do more to regain the trust of donors, including further reducing fees for clubs.

Several community members said they were disturbed by the findings, and said the two young men should be celebrated for their bravery.

“This level of mismanagement is unacceptable, and potentially puts CCAF’s nonprofit status at risk,” said resident Ming Zhu.

Other findings

CWDL observed other issues that were consistent across all four foundations. That included a practice of paying for some expenditures prior to obtaining approval, and in some cases, without ever obtaining approval.

The report also said none of the four foundations have reported their investments, leading to a material understatement of revenue that could potentially misrepresent the financial posi-

tions of the organizations.

CWDL also noted a failure to track net assets at the TPHS and LCC foundations, a lack of credit card payment controls including documentation and authorization (CCA, TPHS and LCC foundations), a lack of regular cash reconciliation (CCA, SDA and LCC foundations), failure to track net assets (LCC and TPHS foundations), incorrect classification of funds in the trial balance (TPHS and CCA foundations) and failure to track in-kind donations of capital equipment (SDAF).

Despite this wide range of findings for all four foundations, trustee Michael Allman claimed that the modified opinion issued for CCAF indicated they “failed” the audit, while the other foundations “passed.”

Dominguez refuted this characterization, noting that while CCAF was missing some financial information, the majority of materials that CWDL observed presented no issues.

Some community members noted that there were areas of improvement for all of the foundations, which suggests more of a structural issue.

“None of the foundations are perfect,” resident Jen Charat said. “Please, do not mistake incomplete documentation for corruption, administrative gaps for conspiracy.”

The Coast News reached out to the foundations at LCC, SDA and TPHS to request comments on the audit findings. Representatives of the SDA and LCC foundations said they appreciated the audits and look forward to working with the district to develop an MOU.

was told I would be promoted to the [redacted] manager position due to my experience facilitating a similar program with my previous employer. Therefore, I believe I was denied promotion in retaliation for filing an internal harassment complaint,” the complaint states.

The employee also said she was retaliated against and discriminated against for requesting disability accommodation and disability leave.

According to the complaint, the employee began to be called into the office on her dedicated work-fromhome days, which were part of her approved ADA accommodation for her disability. She communicated to the city that her accommodations were not being met, and inquired about disability leave.

Soon after, the employee said she received a 59page reprimand citing errors in her job that she said she did not make.

Eventually, after filing the harassment complaint and making these inquiries about accommodations and disability leave, she said she received a notification that she was being terminated not for cause.

The city of Encinitas declined to comment due to it being a personnel matter.

You need to be on YouTube

By Rich Henrich

In today’s digital-first marketplace, video content isn’t just an option — it’s a necessity. For business owners in North County, building a YouTube channel can significantly elevate brand awareness, customer trust, and sales — both locally and globally.

YouTube is the second-largest search engine in the world. Google is the largest but owns YouTube. With billions of users and over 500 hours of video uploaded every minute, it’s where your audience is already spending time.

A well-curated YouTube channel allows your business to educate, inspire and engage potential customers 24/7. Whether you’re a boutique in Encinitas, a farm-to-table café in Vista or a wellness clinic in Carlsbad, video content gives you a platform to tell your story and highlight what sets you apart.

By sharing product demos, service walkthroughs, customer testimonials or behindthe-scenes content, your brand becomes more relatable and trustworthy. You also boost your SEO — YouTube videos can rank on Google, increasing your discoverability in local and global searches.

Another major benefit? Scalability. A video made in Oceanside can be viewed by someone in Tokyo. If your product or service has the potential to serve customers beyond your ZIP code, YouTube becomes a global storefront.

At the same time, localized content — like neighborhood features, staff spotlights or event recaps — reinforces your roots in the community and drives local loyalty.

Finally, YouTube channels can be monetized through ads, affiliate links, sponsorships, or by funneling traffic to your website or e-commerce store. When paired with consistent branding and calls to action, a YouTube channel becomes a revenue-generating asset.

In a visual, mobile-driven world, video content gives your business a voice and face. For North County business owners looking to stand out, engage audiences and grow brand reach, YouTube isn’t just a platform, it’s a strategy. Start building today.

Fish Flambe, Please

Fire investigators in British Columbia, Canada, discovered an unlikely culprit in a brush fire that knocked out power in the town of Ashcroft on July 30: a hungry osprey.

Ashcroft Fire Rescue posted on social media that the peckish avian pulled a large fish from a river about two miles away, but as it labored to fly with its super-sized meal in the July heat, it became tired and eventually dropped the fish ... directly onto a power line, which sparked the blaze in the dry grass below.

NBC Bay Area reported that it took about 4,800 gallons of water to stop the fire — quite a lot of trouble over a bird whose eyes were bigger than its stomach.

“Another suspicion could be that it’s tired of raw fish and wanted to give cooked a try,” the post from Ashcroft Fire Rescue said. [NBC Bay Area, 8/5/2025]

New World Order

A zoo in northern Denmark has made an unsettling request of pet owners in Aalborg, the AP reported.

In a July 31 Facebook post, the zoo suggested, “If you have an animal that has to leave here for various reasons, feel free to donate it to us.” Not for a domestic pet display, mind you.

The zoo is planning to “gently euthanize” the donated animals and feed them to its predators. Zoo officials said they’re trying to mimic the natural food chain, calling out specifically guinea pigs, rabbits and chickens as preferred donations.

“That way, nothing goes to waste — and we ensure natural behavior, nutrition and well-being of our predators,” the post read. [AP, 8/4/2025]

Bright Idea

In the Hautes-Vosges region of France, farmers have become discouraged with the lack of help from the law regarding squatters who appear in camping vans and park illegally on private property.

So, The Economic Times reported on Aug. 4, the farmers unleashed the power of the poo on the interlopers. Six tractors circled around the campers and released slurry — a mixture of manure and water — that’s used to fertilize the soil.

grees, described as “nature’s free HVAC.”

There’s also little mention of the property’s original intent (blowing up the world), the nuclear missile that once lived there or the possibility of a guest falling down an elevator shaft.

But if you’re a survivalist, you’ll never find a bet-

ter 8-plus acres of Cold War history, right down to the 75-ton blast doors and an escape hatch for “that dramatic exit.”

There are some who will say that the ad is lying by not talking about decades of nuclear saber-rattling. However, if you want more realism, watch a movie like "Fail Safe" or "WarGames."

I disagree with the “lying by omission” school, because this listing is doing exactly what it’s supposed to do: piquing curiosity and generating potential buyer interest. Like well-written collateral, it’s inviting you to learn more.

Easy There, Leadfoot

A driver on Germany’s famed Autobahn was issued a $1,000 fine and had his license suspended for three months, CNN reported, after he exceeded the speed limit by 124 mph on July 28.

Speed limit? On the Autobahn? Yes, while the motorway is known worldwide as a de facto raceway where drivers can go as fast as they please, it has stretches where speed limits are posted and enforced.

German police said the motorist was clocked at over 199 mph on the A2 highway near Burg, a portion of the Autobahn where the limit is 74.5 mph. [CNN, 8/8/2025]

The Bear Jar

For over a week, residents of northwest Wisconsin had been riveted by sightings of a hapless yet elusive bear with a jar stuck on her head.

“The bear had been identified plenty of times ... but by the time anyone got there that could help, she was gone,” said Erik Donley of Duluth.

Donley and his nieces were arriving at their family cabin when the bear came out of the woods near them. Understandably scared, the youngest niece locked the cabin doors — briefly leaving her uncle outside. The family called wildlife authorities, then Donley went back outside to follow the bear from a safe distance and prevent her from disappearing again.

The USDA soon arrived, tranquilized the bear and finally removed that stubborn jar. Authorities said the creature was underweight for

Caveat emptor, and all that.

Because as my mother said of my first resume, when I initially wrote everything I could possibly think of about myself, “If you tell them everything up front, they’ll have no reason to ask you more questions.”

Now I’ll also admit I’m intrigued by the commercial possibilities this place presents.

However, the reality is that as a recovering New Yorker, I have little interest in living in Kansas. That has nothing to do with this particular property; I just suspect I’m a little too “in your

Climb Every Mountain

To be awarded a scholarship for college, most prospective students must write a killer essay, but South Korean students with the right lofty aspirations can take a hike. Literally.

According to UPI, Seoul National University offers a scholarship of up to $540 to students who climb any six mountains in the Blackyak Apline Club’s 100 Famous Mountains and 100+ Famous Mountains lists, excluding those traversed by cable car or gondola.

Students must use the Blackyak app to prove they hiked the mountains. The Misan Mountain Hiking Scholarship, which is funded by alumnus Kwon Jun-ha, 81, is highly competitive — only 70 spots are available, but 1,400 students applied for it.

“The scholarship reflects the donor’s desire to foster

face” for folks in the Midwest. Still, regardless of what you sell, you should take lessons from their messaging as you consider developing your next promotional tool — especially if you’re selling something challenging. Because whoever wrote this has found an interesting way of positioning a difficult item for the marketplace, and they’ve gotten lots of free press attention in the process. Without lying, but with just enough detail to invite an inquiry or two. Oh yes…if you do decide to check this place out, don’t forget to pack your radiation suit.

No Fans of Drama

Farmers near Yellowstone National Park, struggling with wolves attacking their livestock but prohibited from harming the protected animals, have turned to technology and Hollywood to help keep the predators away. Yahoo News reported on Aug. 4 that quadcopter drones equipped with speakers blaring AC/DC songs and audio from a Scarlett Johansson movie had been dispatched in the ongoing fight. Per the USDA, “people arguing is a distressing sound for wolves, and so the fight scene between Johansson and Adam Driver in the 2019 movie ‘Marriage Story’ is a perfect deterrent.” It’s working: The number of cows killed by wolves in southern Oregon has fallen from 11 over a 20-day period to two over the next 85 days.

Carlsbad 10U softball team wins Western National title

By Noah Perkins CARLSBAD — Weeks

after finishing third in the state championship tournament and falling to Santee along the way, Carlsbad Softball Association’s 10U Gold Diggers redeemed themselves on July 27, beating Santee 2-1 in a rematch to win the 2025 USA Softball Western National Championship.

The team played an exhausting nine games over seven days at the national tournament, going a perfect 9-0 to capture the championship.

“I won’t say I can’t believe it — because I can. They’ve been working for this moment all year,” head coach Haylee De Jong said. “What’s special about this group is win or lose, they’re always learning. Every game, they took something from it and made them better.”

Left-handed pitcher Mackenzie Taylor, who goes by “Crush,” threw a perfect game that same morning in the semifinals — a 7-0 win over Aliso Viejo — before returning to the circle to deliver another dominant performance in the championship victory over Santee.

“[Taylor] is a lefty, she’s

fast — like 58 [mph] — and she’s got some crazy spin,” De Jong said. “She’s going to be a force.”

The rematch against Santee was tight from the start, with the teams locked in a scoreless tie through four innings. In the fifth, Carlsbad broke through by putting pressure on the defense — Alexa Valdovinos reached on an error, followed by another misplayed pop-up that put two runners on. With two outs, Mighty Taylor ripped a hard-hit ball to shortstop, and aggressive base running helped Carlsbad push across the game’s first run.

Santee answered with a run of their own, but Carlsbad held on behind strong pitching, clean defense and team-wide composure to close out the seven-inning game.

“To be honest, that’s the team I wanted to play,” De Jong said. “They’re really good — great pitching, great hitters, great on defense. I knew going into that game it was going to be a battle. They’re a hard-to-kill team. They fight to the last pitch.”

The Carlsbad championship roster included Alexa Valdovinos, Aria Murphy,

Mackenzie Taylor, Daylin LaRosa, Kenna Martinez, KK Bolanos, Mia Schaeffer, Mighty Taylor, Mila De Jong, Taegan Egan and Taty Corcuera.

“What made this team really special — it wasn’t really one player that got us here,” De Jong said. “ ‘Crush’ is an awesome pitcher and she’s really hard to hit, but our catchers did an amazing job, our defense had her back, and our hitters went up there and battled.

“Even the kids who just came in to run — they all knew their roles, and they just celebrated each other and played for each other. That game was super special.”

After the final out, the team erupted in celebration.

“That dogpile at the end — it was so genuine,” De Jong said. “They didn’t even know what to do. They were just hopping around, so happy. At the beginning of the year, we kept talking about Roseville, and they didn’t really believe it. But with each step — districts, states, then nationals — they grew more confident. By the time we got there, they believed they could win. It was cool. I don’t think I’ll ever forget it.”

Strike Force loses home field, then conference final

By Noah Perkins REGION

— The game should have been played at home in Oceanside — or, according to Arizona Rattlers head coach Kevin Guy, it shouldn’t have happened at all.

After the San Diego Strike Force’s last-second win over the Rattlers in the opening round of the Indoor Football League’s Western Conference playoffs on Aug. 4, Guy didn’t hold back: “It just seems like we always get screwed at home at the end. I don’t really give a (expletive) if the league fines me or not.”

The IFL said the next day that a film review of the Strike Force's 49-48 victory revealed a pre-snap penalty — three or more players were not set at the snap — that should have triggered a 10-second runoff and ended the game. While acknowledging the mistake, the league noted that its protest rules, like those in the NCAA, do not allow overturning a result based on judgment calls.

Strike Force players say referee errors cut both ways. In the final frantic moments, a critical miscommunication on the game-tying touchdown pass from veteran quarterback and former NFL player Nate Davis forced San Diego to scramble. Officials mistakenly called fourth down in-

receiver Arthur Jackson III said. “The team and the coaching staff were amazing.”

“Once we found out what was going on, it was deflating,” said 14-year veteran kicker Ernesto Lacayo, who sent the team to the conference championship with a game-winning extra point against Arizona. “We worked hard all year, and our fans in Oceanside have shown up every game. Playing at home would’ve been a major factor since we were damn near undefeated there.

“Instead, we were the ‘home’ team in Vegas, coming off a bus at 7 a.m., tired, clocks off, trying to get our routines right. We earned the right to host, and it felt like a slap in the face.”

LA Clippers face Chinese team Oct. 9 at Frontwave

By Staff OCEANSIDE

— The Los Angeles Clippers will play the Guangzhou Loong Lions in a preseason game on Oct. 9 at Frontwave Arena in Oceanside, the NBA team announced Tuesday.

Tickets went on sale Thursday.

Last October, the LA Clippers defeated the Brooklyn Nets, 115-106, in an NBA preseason game at Frontwave.

stead of third — a blunder that denied Davis the crucial seconds needed to stop the clock and reset the offense.

Played just a couple of days later, Friday's Western Conference Championship was abruptly moved from Oceanside to Henderson, Nev., due to Frontwave Arena being booked for a Channel 93.3 Sunset Sounds concert featuring Alex Warren.

Despite the short turnaround and change of venue, San Diego answered the call

with one of the most electrifying performances in franchise history.

At Lee’s Family Forum, the offense unleashed a furious barrage against the Vegas Knight Hawks in a fierce back-and-forth duel between two defenses stretched thin and running on fumes.

The Strike Force fell just short in an overtime thriller, dropping the game 74–68.

“It was the opportunity we were given, and we are grateful,” Strike Force wide

The Strike Force, 11-7 on the season, went 7-1 in Oceanside, setting a franchise attendance record along the way.

In the conference championship, Davis threw for five touchdowns and ran for two more on play-action keepers inside the 10. The veteran racked up a staggering 52 touchdown passes in the regular season.

“I can still make every throw, it’s just the running part — I tore my ACL two and a half years ago, and then I got banged up again this year,” Davis recently told The Coast News. “That run-

With time expiring in regulation, Lacayo knocked in a 36-yard field goal, tying the score at 68 and sending the game into overtime.

The IFL enforces a "veteran rule" to keep the league competitive by limiting teams to just seven players with four or more years of professional experience on game day. Due to the Strike Force’s short rest, they had to allocate most of these veteran slots to key defensive players like Matt Elam, a former NFL safety, and Kishawn Walker, a top defensive back with CFL experience. That meant that two of their best offensive weapons, wide receiver Arthur Jackson III and running back Rudy

Johnson, couldn’t play. Late in overtime, the Strike Force had possession and were driving in a “next touchdown wins” scenario. But on fourth down, under pressure, Davis threw an incomplete pass, turning the ball over to the Knight Hawks, who quickly drove down the field and sealed the game on Quentin Randolph’s 1-yard quarterback keeper.

“After the season, I tell the guys to take some rest but then get back to work — have a plan for the offseason because arena football is full of uncertainty and chaos,” Lacayo said. “From where we were at 1-13 back in 2019 to now one of the most relevant organizations, I’m truly excited for what the future holds.”

tribution site,” as many opponents have suggested.

“The community benefits that the developer is willing to offer really gives us the opportunity to address some of the capital improvement projects list that have gone unfunded,” Figueroa said.

Figueroa suggested the $2.5 million in community improvement money be used to install lighting at the neighboring Prince Skatepark and the Melba Bishop Skatepark and pickleball courts, as well as a feasibility study to add bathrooms at Fireside Park.

In the end, Figueroa and councilmembers Rick Robinson and Peter Weiss approved the project, while Mayor Esther Sanchez and Deputy Mayor Eric Joyce remained opposed. The item was originally included on the consent calendar list, but was pulled for public discussion.

“We don’t sacrifice one community for another,” Sanchez said in response to

itary branches.

It will feature mottos and imagery from each branch as well as remembrances to veterans, though Stupin said the final design for those storytelling elements has yet to be completed.

The highest point of the park — in the northern hub —would contain an upper plateau. This is where the sculpture would reside, surrounded by landscaping and other design elements that will be decided upon later.

Huether said the Memorial Plaza would “not only honor our veterans, but also give a place to gather for all kinds of activities.”

One of the themes identified by the city was to use the art to invite engagement for all. Huether said some confusion he has observed around the goals of the sculpture stem from a misreading of its name.

“It’s not the Veterans Memorial Sculpture, it’s a sculpture in the Veterans Memorial Park that really wants to embrace the veterans and the whole community,” he said.

Part of that inclusive approach includes accessibility. Huether said the sculp-

Figueroa’s suggestions for where the money could be used.

Joyce also took issue with deciding on where the funding should be used at the time. However, Figueroa’s suggestions were ultimately incorporated into the final vote.

Residents in the nearby community, as well as the Prince of Peace Abbey, have remained largely opposed to the project for years. Some disgruntled outbursts from the crowd interrupted the council’s discussion on the final vote.

Gretchen Gary, a neighbor who previously appealed the project on behalf of the community, said opponents were caught off guard by the reversal, adding that the developer “had a clear advantage.”

“If we had known they were secretly trying to influence Figueroa in the months since the May 21 vote, we would have been more proactive to remind him of the proven human health risk of the air pollution levels noted in the developer’s own Environmental Impact Report

ture’s opening on the ground would be wide enough to allow a wheelchair to pass through.

Another design feature will be three strips of steel that protrude about an inch on the lower, inside portions of “The Ring,” aimed at deterring skateboarders and bikers from riding the piece of art.

“I know when I was a kid that’s the first thing I would do with my skateboard,” Huether said.

The accessibility and safety concerns were raised during the public input portion of the process. Between April 24 and June 4, the city had 589 respondents who either live, work or frequent Carlsbad, according to Krystal Roa, manager of the Public Art Program. Roa added that 59% of respondents identified as veterans or affiliated veterans.

The City of Carlsbad sought the public input to understand how well the three designs submitted by Gordon Huether Studios — “The Arch,” “The Ring” and “Spires” — exemplified the themes it hoped the project would embody. Those themes include how well the piece honors military service; tells a meaningful story; encourages reflection and respect; reflects the unique

and reinforce the message that community health and wellbeing should be a top priority when considering these kinds of projects for approval,” Gary said via email.

Gary said neighbors were shocked to see the $2.5 million contribution.

“We have done some preliminary research which says it is improper for City Council members to accept funds like this without a formal contract, without a public hearing and/or without negotiations from community groups,” she added. Residents have also hammered against approval of the environmental impact report, suggesting it opens up the possibility for future tenants to increase the number of truck bays up to the originally-proposed 114 figure that the environmental impact report analyzed.

Development Services Director Darlene Nicandro said the applicant would need to return before the City Council with a conditional use permit request to increase the number of truck bays if desired.

character and values of the Carlsbad community; invites engagement; and fits into the park’s natural setting.

“‘The Ring’ … was the most favorable within each of those concepts,” Roa said.

Another concern raised by the public feedback was the orientation of “The Ring.”

Huether said he specifically angled the piece so that looking through it would avoid power lines to the left side of the field of view and a housing development to the right.

“We want to be reminded of nature and be embraced by nature rather than of development and the presence of humans,” he said.

Next, the design of the sculpture will go before the City Council for approval. Huether estimated that construction of the piece would take around four months to complete, once all the proper approvals are set.

Stupin said that the plan is for construction of Veterans Memorial Park to begin at the end of the year. He added that current projections anticipate construction of the park to take between 18 and 24 months.

“I feel very passionate about [‘The Ring’],” Huether said. “I believe that it will be loved by the community for generations to come.”

Fueling the sportfishing community for 74 years

Iwas preparing to embark on one of my regular Boundless Boat

Charters fishing trips with Captain Mark Mihelich recently, when conversation turned to what would be a good topic for the upcoming annual San Diego "Fish Stories" column.

We were motoring over to the “bait barge,” as we call it, to load up on bait sardines when Mark threw out the idea of featuring Jonas and his crew on the barge on Fish Stories. I can speak firsthand that sardines and anchovies provided by the bait barge have resulted in my excursions aboard Boundless catching halibut, yellowtail, yellowfin, bluefin, rockfish, mahi-mahi and more. All of which made for fabulous adventures and even better eating. I was all over that idea, and the wheels were in motion.

We thought it a good idea to meet with Mission Bay Bait Barge Supervisor Jonas Chavira over dumplings and duck at The Dumpling Inn, our favorite post-fishing tradition. Jonas was all in as well, so we scheduled an afternoon for me to visit him and his crew aboard the officially titled Everingham Bros. Bait Co. barge in Mission Bay.

For those unfamiliar, Everingham Bros. Bait Co. provides live bait on a 24/7, 364-day basis specializing in live fishing bait serving San Diego’s and Dana Point's commercial and private sportfishing fleets. They have a fleet of four sizable vessels — the Rival, Cachalot, Ebbco and Cougar — that happened to be tied up to the bait barge we were on in Mission Bay.

These vessels catch and deliver live bait to its bait barge locations in San Diego Bay, Mission Bay and Dana Point Harbor. Their administrative office and maintenance warehouse is in National City where fab-

rication and repairs happen for their three locations. They are the largest bait operation in the world and have been in operation since 1951, when Adolphus “Buck” Everingham and his sons Charles and Roy took over the business from Lyman McDonald.

What started out as a modest bait provider has grown into a regional powerhouse whose innovations over the years include mechanizing operations such as speed-loading tanks, custom boat designs that “bottom out” safely near shore to round up shallow dwelling bait and proprietary time-saving loading innovations.

The result is a more efficient fleet of vessels, whose range extends from the Mexican border to Newport Beach and out about 30 miles. That range is often pre-scouted with the help of a small plane that can spot schools of bait from above. It’s still a family run business with Buck Everingham running the show.

I should also note that there was concern among the fishing community recently when it proved difficult for Everingham Bros. to find bait — meaning limited bait netted for the fleet for a couple of days — and some rationing was put in place. They quickly corrected the

situation, and all is back to normal now. Southern California is one of the oldest fisheries in the world that has the luxury and convenience of buying bait, and the fleet has been spoiled. Most fishing fleets have to net their own bait.

To make this assignment even more appealing, Jonas said his crew of Hiro Fainza and Kenny Dean would prepare lunch for us to chow down on prior to the interview — on the bait barge! I was stoked for that. As we pulled up to the barge on Boundless Boat Charters, the familiar scent of smoking meat was wafting through the salty air — these guys pulled out all the stops with smoked ribs, ribeye steaks and some fabulous summer salads.

It was a Sunday afternoon so the morning rush of fishing boats loading up on bait had passed, and the crew had time to sit down and enjoy lunch with me and Captain Mark. As you might imagine in their line of work, there are no shortage of stories. They service salty anglers and beginners new to boating, so the boat-

ing skill level is all over the map, and that’s where the experience of the bait barge crew comes into play.

The gig also has its benefits, with plenty of high quality fresh fish provided as gifts by those anglers, and nautical friendships made along the way. Their shack on the barge is equipped with many comforts of home…with a distinct bachelor pad feel as it is open 24/7.

And given that it’s a floating business that attracts a plethora of marine life, including gulls, pelicans, seals and sea lions, cleaning and maintenance take up much of the time that is not spent scooping live anchovy and sardine bait for customers.

The Mission Bay barge consists of 52 bait boxes as they call them, which can hold up to 300 pounds each or over 7 tons total.

The San Diego Bay barge has 204 boxes and Dana Point 26 boxes — so, as you might imagine, there is a lot of work to be done to keep them suitable for live bait.

After interviewing Jonas, Hiro and Kenny, the

common thread I found was a shared passion for the seafaring life that includes everything they do to keep the bait barge functioning smoothly and efficiently. It’s hard work, but very rewarding knowing that their efforts provide fishing adventures to people like me who have reaped the rewards

than a provider of bait — it’s the engine of the Southern California sportfishing industry. As captain Mark put it, “I have the utmost respect for guys like Jonas, Hiro and Kenny, it’s their efforts and expertise that have enabled me to succeed as a charter boat captain.”

Nonprofit seeks cultural ties off the beaten path

Whit the road

hat’s an Oceanside basketball coach doing atop a camel in Mongolia?

“I’ve asked myself the same question,” said Bruce Hoskins, a sociology professor at MiraCosta College and assistant coach of the Oceanside High School girls varsity basketball team.

The answer to that question is that he was seeing a bit of the country during a coaching stint in Ulaanbaatar, the country’s capital. Hoskins visited in June to help local basketball coaches and girls perfect their skills.

“People in Mongolia are not very tall, but they love basketball,” he said. “That passion really transcends and connects. That’s what I loved about it”

How did Hoskins land in the world’s most-sparsely populated country?

You could blame Lee Wakefield, Oceanside resident and board member of the Global Neighborhood Project. The nonprofit, founded by San Diego lawyer and journalist Martin Kruming, grew from a visit to San Diego by teachers

to know more than one language. They are very cosmopolitan.”

Wakefield was in Mongolia simultaneously to train law enforcement officers. (He is a retired U.S. Marine Corps officer and CEO of Sentir Global, which specializes in threat recognition and threat awareness training.)

Through his contacts, he was able to introduce Hoskins to the Mongolian Sports Association, just one instance of his many connections because of his world travels. He and his wife, Kim, a life-long world traveler who taught Spanish at Carlsbad High School for 25 years, have visited more than 40 countries. (Asked how many times they’ve packed their suitcases, the closest estimate they could provide was “hundreds.”)

from Azerbaijan. The project now comprises a small group of dedicated San Diego County residents who believe in fostering cultural connections across continents on an intimate scale.

“We focus on countries that are off-the-beaten tourist path — places where people don’t go,” Wakefield said. “We want to match communities and people around the world and use common interests to get to know one another.”

This citizen diplomacy has generated, among other things, an annual chess

tournament with Azerbaijani youth; a storytelling festival and pickleball tournament with Botswana citizens; and chef and organist exchanges with Latvians. Current projects include two in Fez, Morocco: helping establish the Medina Children’s Library, and aiding the Fondouk Equine Hospital obtain a hoist, necessary for moving large working animals post-operatively.

“The vet could care for twice the number of animals if he had this hoist,” Wakefield said.

And then there is the

basketball camp in Mongolia.

The trip had its genesis three years ago when Hoskins had a random encounter with Wakefield at a gym.

“He was happy and had a smile on his face,” Hoskins remembered.

Eighteen months passed before Wakefield popped the question.

“He said, ‘What would you think about going to Mongolia and holding a basketball camp?’ I didn’t think he was serious until he was.”

The experience was sin-

gular. For one thing, there was a language barrier, but Hoskins had plenty of help.

“I had a lot of interpreters that were young,” he said. “(They told me that) they took English classes, but they really learned English by playing online games. I thought that was fascinating.”

In addition, Mongolian youth “know Japanese, Chinese, and they have three scripts they have to read: Russian, Roman (like the English alphabet) and Mongolian. The population grows up knowing they have

“Global Neighborhood Project doesn’t raise money, but we help find the people who assist in our citizen diplomacy efforts,” Wakefield said. “We help find people who want to help.”

Hoskins paid for his airline ticket to Mongolia, but the government paid for his housing, food and transportation within the country. He came away from his trip with some simple but strong convictions.

“The biggest — and I thought about this deeply — is that cultures are different but people are the same,” he said. “We are all essentially the same.”

RAIN, WIND, AND FIRE...

Every year there are over twenty thousand chimney/ fireplace related house fires in the US alone. Losses to homes as a result of chimney fires, leaks and wind damage exceeds one hundred million dollars annually in the US.

Interfaith to run Oceanside’s homeless shelter

By Samantha Nelson OCEANSIDE

— Interfaith Community Services is set to take over the Oceanside Navigation Center in October from current operator San Diego Rescue Mission, with plans to boost the number of beds from 50 to 75.

The City Council narrowly approved the decision to make Interfaith, an Escondido-based nonprofit, in charge of its first and only homeless shelter on Aug. 6. The professional services agreement includes paying Interfaith just over $2 million annually to fully operate the shelter for a 21-month period, beginning on Oct. 1 and ending June 30, 2027, with two optional one-year extensions.

In addition to increasing the number of shelter beds, Interfaith will provide 24/7 staffing, security, case management and behavioral health services.

Because the city will rely on Measure X funds to pay Interfaith to operate the shelter, City Manager Jonathan Borrego noted In-

terfaith plans to stay within the $1.25 million amount already allotted for homeless shelter services in the 20252026 operating budget until next fiscal year.

Tameka Tates, the city’s new homeless service manager, explained that Interfaith also plans to pursue CalAIM reimbursement funding — a Department of Health Care Services initiative meant to improve the quality of life and health outcomes for individuals on

where it meets the Pacific

LAGOON

the city knows that too.”

To assist him in his battle against the Coastal Commission, Levy asked the city earlier this year to issue a certificate attesting that he is in compliance with the terms of the Coastal Development Permit for his property.

Rob Moddelmog, an attorney for the Coastal Commission, urged Carlsbad leaders not to find Levy in compliance, stating in a May letter that doing so would make the city “a party to the many violations at issue” and would “create a variety of difficulties.”

In an Aug. 1 letter in response to the Coastal Commission, Carlsbad Community Development Director Jeff Murphy agreed with Levy that there is no current public lagoon access being blocked in violation of the permit.

Specifically, Murphy said the city has never accepted Levy’s offer of dedication of a trail easement for the lagoon access site, and that until it is accepted, the city is not responsible for maintaining the site or adopting it into its public trails network.

“In this case, there is no

Medi-Cal — to potentially reduce long-term costs for the city.

Additionally, the council approved a property use agreement that authorizes Interfaith to use city-owned property for the shelter.

Interfaith and San Diego Rescue Mission were two of six applicants that submitted proposals to the city to run the shelter earlier this year. In the end, staff recommended Interfaith, which has a longstanding

presence in Oceanside and other North County cities.

The shelter will target primarily Oceanside residents, including those who are chronically homeless as well as veterans. The shelter only takes referrals from the Homeless Outreach Team, Housing Authority or other approved partners, with no walk-ins accepted.

Interfaith plans to track housing outcomes and extend the length of stay for its occupants.

According to Interfaith Chief Executive Officer Greg Anglea, last year, the organization served 20,523 clients, with 1,493 adults and children prevented from falling into homelessness, 1,094 adults and children placed in stable housing, and 1,194 people who slept in an Interfaith bed.

Interfaith has been in the community for over 45 years, and has had a presence in Oceanside for at least 20 years.

“We’re a regional leader when it comes to addressing homelessness,” Anglea said.

Paul Armstrong, chief of staff and senior vice president of programs for San Diego Rescue Mission, said his organization was surprised by the decision, noting there were no contract violations, reported discrimination, or other complaints or concerns shared with them prior to the city’s decision to look for a new operator.

San Diego Rescue Mission has paid for its annual operating costs since it took over and once again offered to do so in its new proposal.

The Rescue Mission also asked for an extension of its contract; however, when it became clear they were not going to be selected, they pulled out and gave their 90day notice to leave, which ends in October.

“The ones who are hurt the most by what is happening are the 22 staff members, many of whom have lived through homelessness,” Armstrong said. “We’re very disappointed. The city never shared any concerns about our performance.”

Anglea noted that In-

written record of city manager or City Council acceptance of the Lagoon Public Access Trail IOD [irrevocable offer of dedication], let alone city manager acceptance of such IOD into the citywide trail system,” the city said on Aug. 1.

Murphy also stated that Levy’s property is in compliance with all but one of the permit conditions, which requires him to record a deed restriction over the wetland buffer setback area for open space and public access uses only.

Murphy added that there may be other improvements and impacts on the site that have taken place since the permit was issued, which could require a separate coastal development permit as required by the Coastal Commission.

Along with the lagoon access gate within the wetland buffer, the Coastal Commission has also raised issues regarding a separate vehicle gate above the Levyland property along Mountain View Drive near Normandy Lane, which leads down to the larger North Beach trail and lagoon area.

Levy utilizes this locked vehicle gate to access his property, and the city also has access for maintenance

of the North Beach Trail as well as emergency access to the beach.

In an October notice to Levy, commission staff said that this locked vehicle gate constitutes another violation, as an existing pedestrian access easement at the site of the gate requires it to be opened so that the public can access the area.

However, this appears to contradict statements from a 1998 commission staff report from when they were considering Levy’s permit. The staff report said the implementation of an electronic vehicle gate as requested by Levy would not change the existing public access availability as there had already been a gate at that location for some time.

The report also did not state requirements for the Mountain View Drive gate to be open at any certain times, and recognized that there is adequate public access to the beach down the street — around 500 feet away along Ocean Street at Rue de Chateaux.

Levy and city officials have also cited this in their responses to the commission.

“The Coastal Commission has not provided any authority for this position,

and it is inconsistent with the Coastal Commission’s prior findings and decisions. It is also inconsistent with the language of the easements, which do not require removal or timed opening of the gate upon acceptance,” the city stated in its Aug. 1 letter.

The city’s letter also stated that the land where the gate is located is owned by The Beach Homeowners Association, which operates an adjacent condominium complex.

Carlsbad officials said the commission has the authority to set new terms for the use of the gate to address the public access issue, but that these terms must be created in consultation with The Beach Homeowners Association.

Public scrutiny

The situation at Levyland has drawn scrutiny from local environmental advocacy groups, including San Diego Surfrider Foundation, Preserve Calavera, and Buena Vista Audubon Society.

terfaith plans to open up its hiring process, which would allow the current San Diego Rescue Mission staff at the shelter to apply as well.

Earlier this year, during a discussion between the San Diego Rescue Mission leaders, the city manager and Mayor Esther Sanchez, the Rescue Mission indicated a desire to use the shelter as a regional facility.

In response, Sanchez explained she took issue with the shelter being operated as a “regional center,” which to her meant Oceanside residents were not a priority.

Several public speakers voiced their support for both Interfaith and the San Diego Rescue Mission.

In the end, City Council voted 3-2 in favor of Interfaith, with Councilmember Rick Robinson and Peter Weiss opposed due to the operating costs.

Robinson and Weiss said they did not have any personal issues with how Interfaith is run, and plan to support the shelter’s success in the long-run.

At a July 15 Carlsbad City Council meeting, Buena Vista Audubon President Patti Lengan emphasized that the trail access gate is supposed to be open from dawn to dusk for public access.

“The North Beach Trail is part of Carlsbad’s city trail system, but the public is intentionally prevented from accessing the trail running between Levy’s property and the lagoon,” Lengan said.

“We urge the city of Carlsbad to actively support the California Coastal Commission’s efforts to restore the site to compliance.”

Adding further confusion is the city’s own trail website page. In its list of publicly accessible trails in the city, the page highlights the small out-and-back lagoon access trail as an offshoot of the North Beach Trail, despite it not being currently accessible.

Coastal Commission staff said the inclusion of this area on the city website is indicative of the city accepting the trail into their trail network.

The city’s trail page also indicates that residents can access the North Beach Trail via the vehicle access road at Mountain View Drive.

Disagreements regarding the terms of the Coastal Development Permit go back decades. In 1998, one of the then-Coastal Commission members filed an appeal of Carlsbad’s approval for the project due to con-

cerns about public access, with commission staff recommending that the appeal move forward.

However, the commission ultimately did not move approve the appeal, and instead would consider and approve the Levyland project and associated Coastal Development Permit at the end of 1998.

At this time, the Coastal Commission said they are hoping to resolve this issue with Levy via a settlement, to avoid having to address it during a contested commission hearing.

Levy said that as a longtime surfer and foiler (a sport that involves riding a board atop the water via a hydrofoil), he believes strongly in the importance of public access; however, he sees the threat of fines from the Coastal Commission as a form of extortion, and said their attempted enforcement has sullied his name in the community where he has lived for 30 years.

“They’re making it like, ‘rich guy blocks public access,’ and that’s just not the deal,” Levy said. “Really, what’s transpiring is this is a hit job by the Coastal Commission, trying to litigate this in the court of public opinion.”

A Petition for Probate has been led by Ernest Sato, in the Superior Court of California, County of San Diego.

The Petition for Probate requests

that Ernest Sato be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.

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 les an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.

PUBLIC NOTICE OF AVAILABILITY NAVAL WEAPONS STATION SEAL BEACH DETACHMENT FALLBROOK in FALLBROOK, CALIFORNIA

PROPOSED PLAN AT MUNITIONS RESPONSE PROGRAM SITE UXO2

The Department of the Navy (Navy) announces public availability of the Proposed Plan for Munitions Response Program (MRP) Site UXO2 located at Naval Weapons Station Seal Beach, Detachment Fallbrook, in Fallbrook, California. MRP Site UXO2 is located approximately 2,600 feet south-southwest of the Ammunition Road entrance to Detachment Fallbrook, and approximately 600 feet inside the eastern boundary of the installation. MRP Site UXO2 consists of two former ranges: a Former Small Arms Range and a Former Skeet/Trap Range. The Former Small Arms Range covers approximately 0.5 acre and is located within the Former Skeet/Trap Range, which covers approximately 31 acres. Fallbrook Creek crosses MRP Site UXO2 from the northeast to the southwest.

The Former Small Arms Range operated from 1945 to 1991 for handgun marksmanship training. Ammunition used at the Former Small Arms Range included .38 caliber, .45 caliber, and 9 millimeter rounds. The firing line was located at the north-northeastern end of the range, and the firing direction was to the southwest, towards wooden target structures. A hillside located behind the target structures served as the target berm where bullets and bullet fragments generally landed. Bullets and bullet fragments are the primary source of soil contamination at the Small Arms Range.

The Former Skeet/Trap Range operated from 1950 to 1987 and was used for recreation. Ammunition use at the Former Skeet/Trap Range was limited to 12 gauge shotgun ammunition. The firing line and the skeet/trap launching equipment were located on a shelf at the top of the hillside, east of the Former Small Arms Range target berm. The firing direction was to the north (opposite of the firing direction for the Former Small Arms Range). The lead shotfall and broken pieces of skeet/trap targets are the primary sources of potential contamination at the Former Skeet/Trap Range. Multiple site investigations have been completed to evaluate potential threats to human health and the environment at MRP Site UXO2. Soil samples were collected from the surface and shallow subsurface throughout the footprint of the Former Small Arms Range and Former Skeet/Trap Range. Sediment samples were also collected within Fallbrook Creek. A metal-detector survey was conducted within the Former Small Arms Range target berm to detect metallic items (bullets and bullet fragments). The results of the site investigations indicate that lead, bullets, and bullet fragments are present within and near the Former Small Arms Range Target Berm and pose unacceptable risk to human health and/or ecological receptors. The other portions of the Former Small Arms Range and the Former Skeet/ Trap Range, including Fallbrook Creek, have not been impacted by historical operations and activities at MRP Site UXO2. Based on these findings, the Navy determined that action is needed to address unacceptable risks to human health and/or the environment at MRP Site UXO2.

The Proposed Plan is an environmental document that summarizes the results of previous environmental investigations conducted at MRP Site UXO2 under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), describes remedial alternatives evaluated to address contamination, protect public health, and the environment, and identifies the preferred alternative by the Navy and the State of California based on a comparative analysis. The Navy evaluated the following four options for addressing soil contamination at the site: 1) No Action (required for comparison), 2) Soil Cover, Engineering Controls, and Institutional Controls, 3) Limited Excavation and Institutional Controls, and 4) Excavation and Offsite Disposal. The preferred alternative is Excavation and Offsite Disposal (this is the highest level of cleanup among the alternatives; identified as Alternative 4 in the Proposed Plan). In summary, this alternative consists of the excavation and offsite disposal of soil in areas that pose a risk to industrial and constructions workers, future hypothetical residents, and ecological receptors. Additionally, this alternative includes removal (to the extent practical) and offsite disposal of bullets and bullet fragments. This alternative would remove all soil that poses unacceptable risk to human health or the environment. Therefore, this alternative is expected to allow for unrestricted use at MRP Site UXO2 (pending concurrence from regulatory agencies). No continued monitoring, maintenance, or controls would be required after implementation. FOR MORE INFORMATION

The Proposed Plan is available for public review. The Navy will accept public comments on the Proposed Plan during the 30-day comment period from Thursday, August 7, 2025, through Saturday, September 6, 2025. Written comments should be postmarked no later than Saturday, September 6, 2025, and mailed to Mr. Anthony Konzen, Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command (NAVFAC) Southwest, 750 Pacific Highway, 11th Floor, San Diego, California 92132. Emailed comments may be submitted to navfac_sw_det_fallbrook_rpm@us.navy.mil by Saturday, September 6, 2025.

PUBLIC MEETING OPEN HOUSE: Thursday, August 21, 2025, from 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.

You are invited to attend an open house public meeting to present this Proposed Plan at the Fallbrook Community Center, Live Oak Room, 341 Heald Lane, Fallbrook, California 92028.

O’side museums team on surf art exhibition

By E’Louise Ondash OCEANSIDE— There

are surfers who are artists and artists who are surfers, and the best of both will be on display during “Surf Art: Exploring California’s Coastal Culture,” a collaborative exhibition at the Oceanside Museum of Art and the California Surf Museum.

The dual exhibition at Oceanside’s two museums has been a while in the making.

“The conversation about a surf art exhibition has been in full force since I came to the museum in 2013,” says Katie Dolgov, the art museum’s director of exhibitions and collections, “but how do you do that? We don’t know surfers that well, but the surf museum

Jim Kempton, executive director of the California Surf Museum and co-curator of the exhibition, concurs.

“This is something we’ve been thinking about for four or five years,” he says, “but it was hard to find a time to do it. I’ve been collecting art (for the exhibition) for about four or five months. A lot of surfers have become artists. They started as surfer-artists and some have gone on to fine arts, like album covers for recording artists.”

The pieces include

Encinitas; Heather Rothwell, Levi Sierra and Elijah Smith of Oceanside; Aiden Falk, Riley Hensley, Kylie Kim, Adrian Rong and James Wise of San Diego; and Chad Boozer, Jordan Chan, Abigail Larson, Alexis Reyes and Kyle Rogers of San Marcos.

Ozzy’s surf movie

I’ve known Jesse Schluntz since he was a teenage surf filmmaker struggling to stay awake through San Dieguito math classes. His films featured local talent like Seth Elmer, Hagan Kelly, Chris Cote and a very young Rob Machado. He followed the local cast as they drifted through Seaside Reef and other North County surf spots. While less than perfect, Jesse’s movies were always great fun, and proved worthy of sold-out crowds at La Paloma Theatre.

In the early ’90s, Jesse’s older brother, Jeremy, was working for Ozzy Osbourne and family. It was then that Jesse hit upon the idea of asking Ozzy to introduce the world’s first surf/horror film, and his classic “TearDevils Trilogy” was born.

Osbourne’s appearance alone is worth the price of admission. After dismissing every other surf DVD in his hands, Ozzy declares “TearDevils,” “The best surf movie I have seen in my life.” If maybe not the best, “TearDevils” is certainly among the most clever.

Around this time, I was serving as editor in chief of Risen Magazine. Our stated goal was to interview celebrities on their spiritually. We were a tiny publication, but with Jer-

water spot

emy’s help, we were granted an exclusive live hour with Ozzy, who was one of the most sought-out celebrities of the time. On the drive there, I wondered if Osbourne really was a Satanist.

What I found instead was a recently clean and sober rock star in the process of rebuilding a life he had previously been quite careless with. When asked about his being a Satanist, Ozzy replied: “We were on the street when I looked up to see a movie marquee reading ‘Black Sabbath’ and thought that’s what we should call our band. It was as simple as that.

“Nobody ever called Vincent Price a Satanist, but they did us. Once, when a group of people were marching around the stadium protesting me, I said, ‘I’m going to make a point.’ I drew a happy face and put it on a broomstick and joined them in protesting me. Turns out, they didn’t even know who I was.”

If Ozzy Osbourne

was a Satanist, he did not serve that master very well. Showing kindness to strangers, helping a startup publication, introducing a surf movie upon request and doing everything possible for his family, are all counterpoints to evil.

Ozzy and I were roughly the same age, both dyslexic, and often struggled to make sense of the worlds we inhabited. His world began in the often-dreary town of Birmingham, England, while mine was filtered through California’s ocean water and sunshine.

While contemplating Ozzy’s words on my drive home from Beverly Hills, I wondered if our lots might have been reversed if he had been born in the U.S. and I in England. I know I don’t have what it takes to be a rock icon, but I’m sure he could have become a surfer.

Here’s bidding Ozzy Osbourne a fond Aloha. And thank you for your time with us and your contribution to the surfing world.
