Encinitas group challenges Marea Village project approval

By Jacqueline Covey

ENCINITAS — Despite being referred to as a “model project,” the sister of the Alila Marea Beach Resort is moving forward with some pushback.

“In terms of effectively utilizing this property,

Village development will negatively impact aesthetic value, land use, neighborhood character, traffic and air quality.

The group hopes to appeal the project and its “inadequate” final environmental impact report.

...The project’s bulk and scale is out of character when compared to surrounding structures and communities.”

Everett DeLano Attorney, Friends of Seabluffe

this is the right place for the project on a commercial and residential level,” said Chairman Kevin Doyle when approving the project.

However, now, the Friends of Seabluffe are challenging the Marea Village, which consists of 94 rental apartment units, 34 hotel units, four mixed-use commercial buildings and two commercial buildings.

At its meeting on June 16, the Planning Commission unanimously approved — with Commissioner Steve Dalton recusing — developer Larry Jackel’s mixed-use complex at 1900 and 1950 North Coast Highway 101 that will connect to the neighboring resort at 2100.

Represented by attorney Everett DeLano, the Friends argue that the 110,000-square foot Marea

In a June 27 letter to the city, DeLano writes that the approval of Marea Village is inconsistent with land use requirements under the city’s Local Coastal Program and that the city failed to address relevant comments pertaining to the Final Environmental Impact Report.

The development is set for the Coastal Overlay Zone and must conform to the Encinitas Local Coastal Program, DeLano wrote in his appeal.

He said that, as presented, the project is inconsistent with the Enicinitas’ general and specific plans for development in that area.

One major factor is multiple asks for the height increases, with the largest being a 10-foot-6-inch allowance for a mixed-use, flat-roofed building.

REGION — The aver-

DeLano said that Madera Village’s proposed height far exceeds the “existing community conditions and is thus not compatible with existing development in that area.”

“As is demonstrated by the project plans,” DeLano continued, “the project’s bulk and scale is out of character when compared to surrounding structures and communities.”

Leucadia resident Pete Albanese, who is not in favor of the project, agrees with DeLano’s sentiment.

Living off of nearby Europa Street for nearly a decade, Albanese said that the coastal community may not be the place for the large Marea Village buildout.

“I think the big problem here is the location that they're putting in density,” Albanese said. “Leucadia infrastructure is not supportive, this is a beach community with old infrastructure.”

The Marea Village Final Environmental Impact Report notes the potential for significant adverse impacts on carbon emissions, traffic, and biological resources that can be mitigated through smart planning.

However, on behalf of the Southwest Regional Council of Carpenters, Pasadena-based attorney Mitchell Tsai claims the project’s environmental

impact, claiming there’s no significant emission impacts is “legally inaccurate” as the study relied on offset mitigation methods for its conclusion, according to Tsai.

Tsai said that the environmental impact report must be recirculated to reflect the city’s additional observation of the traffic conditions in that area.

Traffic and the preservation of public infrastructure is a concern among residents and the public, too.

Albanese said that La Costa Avenue, adjacent to

the site, is “a disaster.”

“The [final environmental impact report] concludes the projects’s [vehicle miles traveled] impact will be significant,” DeLano wrote in a June 15 letter to the city. “Despite the acknowledgement of a significant VMT impact, the final EIR failed to consider feasible mitigation measures that would reduce VMT impacts.”

Another cause for concern is the project’s Density Bonus designation. The entire project site is subject to the requirements of Sen-

While Albanese is not against unit-dense developments, he feels Marea Village is not appropriate for the coastal corners of the city. In his opinion, the city may be seeking to aggravate traffic.

“They want to bring us to a standstill,” he said of the congested area near the project site. “They want us out of our cars, and more development is going to cause more problems.”

How to be a smart voter

W

By Lisa Shaffer

hy be a voter at all? It’s confusing. Does it make any difference anyway?

Yes, voting matters. Do you want your school board to ban books or discussion of certain topics?

Or do you want teachers to focus on teaching critical thinking skills by presenting controversial topics and helping kids think for themselves? Your vote in school board elections determines who decides.

At every level of government, decisions are being made that impact your life. Fundamental rights are being defined and expanded or limited by Supreme Court justices appointed and approved by the president and Senate — all elected officials.

The people making decisions about housing, transit and climate action are the people WE elect. If we choose different people, we get different outcomes.

So, how do you become an educated voter? Step one: Register to vote. It’s easy. Go to SDVote.com.

Just to be sure, do it today!

In general, there are three types of elections: primary, general and special.

The primary election determines who the candidates will be in the general elections that are held every two years in November.

Not every office has a primary — some are just in

the general election. Special elections can happen at any time to fill vacancies, for example, when an official dies or leaves office for another reason.

Once you are a registered voter, you should receive information about specific elections that you are eligible to vote in.

You will get lots of mailings and other communications about candidates and issues. Read and listen carefully.

The League never makes endorsements.

Go to candidate forums and hear directly from the candidates.

A challenger with no track record can easily promise to solve difficult problems but may not really understand the legalities and complexities that an incumbent must address.

Look beyond specific issues to the candidate’s character, values and experience.

No candidate will be perfect. Choose the ones you think will take us in the general direction you want...

Always look at the source, follow the money and consider what their agenda might be. Mailings must include “paid for by.”

Look up any organization you don’t recognize to see who’s behind it.

Fact check and talk to knowledgeable friends and colleagues. Consider setting up a potluck discussion group to share information and opinions.

Nonpartisan organizations, like the League of Women Voters, offer objective information.

The League studies issues and offers pros and cons for major ballot questions. They post candidate statements and studies on the VotersEdge.org website.

You don’t know what might arise in the future.

Past actions speak louder than empty words.

No candidate will be perfect. Choose the ones you think will take us in the general direction you want, or at least the one who isn’t going to take us in a direction you don’t want.

“Confirmation bias” makes us inclined to accept information that matches existing beliefs and reject conflicting views. Think critically. Vote wisely.

The health and well-being of our families, our communities, and our nation depend on it.

Lisa Shaffer is a former Encinitas councilwoman.

SCOTUS ruling at odds with climate goals Last week, the U.S. Supreme Court curtailed the authority of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to regulate greenhouse gas emissions causing climate change.

This alarming decision could have far-reaching devastating impacts and it is at odds with the majority of Americans who want climate change action.

The ruling says that the EPA “must point to clear

congressional authorization for the power it claims.”

This, however, presents a real opportunity as reducing emissions through EPA regulations is not the only or best solution.

Legislation that puts a fee on carbon passed by Congress is more effective, efficient and has a better chance for bipartisan support.

Contact your Representatives and ask them to

pass a budget reconciliation package with major climate policies.

Demand legislation that moves us to a clean-energy economy including fees on carbon, tougher fuel efficiency standards for cars, increased tree planting and incentives for de-carbonization of U.S. households.

Susan Kobara Carlsbad

read with interest the recent article in The Coast News, “Preserving open spaces in Encinitas at forefront of local debate,” regarding the city’s renewed attention to the issue of open space acquisition.

As a long-time Encinitas resident, a former firefighter and fire chief, and a former member of the Encinitas City Council, I have long advocated for open space preservation.

Open space gives residents more control of land use and helps enhance the beauty and environmental quality of our city and neighborhoods.

Comments made at a recent council meeting by District 3 candidate Julie Thunder have sparked others to rally to this cause.

I’m encouraged that, as reported by this newspaper, all of the declared candidates for the City Council have expressed support for open space.

But the old saying certainly applies in this case: Talk is cheap.

In 2016, I was the sponsor of a council resolution to develop an open space funding strategy, ultimately establishing an Open Space Acquisition Fund.

The City Council voted for a $500,000 cash infusion supplemented over time by fees assessed on new development.

That was action, not talk.

By 2019, the fund had grown to nearly $1.2 million with the addition of accrued fees.

Today, if the fund had been allowed to grow, we would have much more available in the savings account.

But a million dollars was too tempting for a council with big-spending habits, and by 2020, all of the money earmarked for open space was gone, and nobody seemed to know what it was spent on.

As a former resident of District 3, I've followed the district’s council representatives.

When Mayor Catherine Blakespear appointed Councilwoman Joy Lyndes, a member of the city’s Environmental Commission, I had high hopes that our open space bank account would be reestablished.

Recently, Lyndes and her fellow council member, Kellie Hinze (another Blakespear appointee) sponsored a resolution to express support for open space.

Who could disagree with that?

Their resolution was approved 5-0. But the council took no action and committed no money.

Nothing will happen as a

result of that resolution.

We should note that Hinze previously voted to strip away the open space money.

In government, even at the local level, the action occurs when resources are put to work concretely.

That usually means money gets spent.

Without that sort of commitment, goals like open space preservation don’t get accomplished. In the real world, open space acquisition often (usually) involves hard work contributed by both landowners and government representatives, coupled with the expenditure of money.

In Encinitas, that would likely mean big money. The sums involved typically include funding from the city, the state government, and non-profits.

Unless the city has skin in the game, the other funding sources are unlikely to come together.

Sometimes, federal funding comes into play.

But unless the city has skin in the game, the other funding sources are unlikely to come together.

That's why an Open Space Acquisition Fund is so critical, and the disappearance of those funds is so regrettable.

In any election, voters need to understand the distinction between talk and action. Candidates dish out a lot of talk; whether they follow through makes all the difference.

In regards to a real commitment to increasing our open space inventory, Joy Lyndes is certainly not leading. An election year resolution is not an acceptable substitute for action.

Thunder, Lyndes’ challenger, seems to get it. She knows that talk is cheap, and commitment is costly.

Without funding, there will be no action on open space.

Thunder raised this issue when she ran for Mayor in 2020. Two years later, the city still has taken no action, so she’s raising it again.

For voters who care about open space, as most do, it’s probably time to consider making changes to the City Council.

Lyndes had her chance, but it’s time to try someone else.

Mark Muir is a former Encinitas fire chief and councilman.

Preserving open spaces at forefront of local debate

By Jacqueline Covey

ENCINITAS — As candidates for the Encinitas City Council make early gains in their respective campaigns, it’s become clear that one issue is at the forefront of their minds — conserving open space in Encinitas.

“All of us need ‘Vitamin N’ (nature) in our lives as an integral aspect of physical and mental health,” said Pamela Redela, a candidate for District 4. "The various trails and parks within Encinitas are popular with residents, myself included.”

Julie Thunder, a District 3 candidate, wants to see funding reinstated back into city purchases of open spaces. Thunder has been an active opponent of the council's 2019 decision to redirect $590,000 of a $1.18-million fund to purchase open space to help pay for the Circulation Element (now the Mobility Element).

In 2020, the City Council transferred $410,000 of the remaining Open Space Fund to the Opportunity Fund, a reconfiguration of the former special projects fund that did not directly impact land acquisition.

The fund is No. 119 in the city's proposed 2022-23 Operating Budget and is listed as “Special Projects.”

Thunder says those funds are “disappearing into nothing land” rather than preserving open land.

“We need to have these monies set aside so that when opportunities arise, we’re ready to go,” Thunder said, adding the state generally favors project-ready cities come grant time.

District 3 incumbent Councilwoman Joy Lyndes sees it a little differently.

Lyndes is eyeing state dollars to conserve areas of the native landscape and other biological open space. The term “open space” can refer to any configuration of landscaping that doesn’t include a building or structure.

Council members Lyndes and Kellie Hinze recently passed a Conservation of Open Space resolution, which moves to strategize with local nonprofit organizations to leverage state funds and generate robust grant applications for multi-beneficial projects.

“I focused it specifically on open space because we have so many opportunities that were not captured before this time on preservation,” Lyndes said.

"Open space is valuable to our community. It’s our green infrastructure. It’s like the lungs of our community."

Part of that leverage includes beefing up the Encinitas Habitat Stewardship Program, which was created in 2020 "to help upkeep City-owned properties that contains sensitive habitat.”

Lyndes said there’s viable funding through leveraging relationships with the state and local partners. The Escondido Creek Conservancy, Cottonwood Creek Conservancy, botanical gardens, and other local open space managers pitting the city’s boundaries will work together to determine plans for habitat conservation.

“We’re looking at it from the perspective of being very proactive about understanding that it’s going to be coming out to the state,” Lyndes said. "And we really want to position ourselves so that we can put together these multi-benefit projects associated with the expansion of our open space not only in our stewardship.”

An increase in spending for habitat rehabilitation was noted under the parks maintenance budget for the next fiscal year. The fund is proposed to increase from $225,548 to $232,089.

When asked about the current amount and revenue change in 2022-23 for the Encinitas Habitat Stewardship Program, Finance Director Teresa McBroome said those amounts would

be finalized with the budget.

Lyndes, though, stressed the amount had doubled.

Some in the community have criticized the resolution — calling it weak or disingenuous — that fails to address reinstating an open space acquisition fund.

However, following the intent of the February resolution, the City Council did move funds to its Encinitas Habitat Stewardship Program, according to Lyndes.

“There’s no acknowledgment of the money, any money; there’s no action,” Thunder said. “There’s no promise to do action. I was stunned because we have a council that claims to be environmentally focused; they claim it, but they often aren’t.”

The funds debated were called the Open Space Acquisition Fees Fund, which grew due to a dedicated flow of developer fees. Thunder said she would like zoning efforts to dictate better where development goes in areas where wildlife thrives in Encinitas.

“We really should not be leapfrogging out into areas where there’s not sufficient infrastructure, and there’s not transit,” Lyndes agreed, adding the city must consider “smart” planning moving forward.

While Lyndes is wary of connecting land use with developers, she wouldn’t oppose reconsidering developer funds.

“There are so many reasons why it doesn’t make sense to leapfrog your housing out into areas where there is open space,” Lyndes said. “So, my objective is really to fortify our open space and look at extending it.”

Encinitas mayoral candidate Cindy Cremona voiced her strong support for prioritizing the preservation of open spaces to maintain the city’s unique TURN TO OPEN SPACES ON 33

O’side Unified has first budget surplus in years

Solana Ranch ES has new principal

By Samantha Nelson

SOLANA BEACH — Students at Solana Ranch Elementary can expect to see a new leader at the school’s helm this fall following the Solana Beach School District’s recent confirmation of Carey Bartlow as principal.

In April, Solana Ranch saw the departure of beloved principal Jerry Jones, who had led the school since 2014.

Doug Kramer served as interim pr incipa l through the BARTLOW end of the school year.

Bartlow is a 24-year educator who has been a teacher and administrator in elementary and middle school settings.

She previously worked as Dean of Students in the Conejo Valley Unified School District and most recently as a principal at Cypress Elementary School, both located in Ventura County.

In a press release, Solana Beach School District spokeswoman Christine Huard said Bartlow is looking forward to building strong relationships with the district community.

“She prides herself

OCEANSIDE — Oceanside Unified School District’s budget is in the black for the first time since 2017.

School board trustees approved the district’s $1.5 million-surplus budget for the 2022-2023 fiscal year, which began in July, at its June 28 meeting.

The district expects to bring in $280.9 million and spend $279.4 million next year, according to its combined summary of funds, leaving the district with an end balance of $40.7 million.

“I’m excited to see that we’re balanced,” said Board President Stacy Begin during a previous budget discussion on June 17.

Begin was absent for the budget’s final approval on June 28.

Associate Superintendent Andrea Norman, who oversees the district’s finances, explained that although the budget is in good shape for now, there are potential risks down the road that could change things.

According to Norman, those risks include a broken economy, inflation, supply chain issues, the volatility of the stock market, the Ukraine-Russia War, and a potential resurgence of COVID-19 cases.

As part of its actions to ensure fiscal solvency, the district plans to continue to work with the San Diego County Office of Education while also closely monitoring its student enrollment, and reducing staff as needed.

The district also intends to evaluate its health and welfare costs and identify potential reductions in contracted services.

“We are in really great condition but we need to be thoughtful and continue to collaborate with the county,” Norman said.

Conservative projections of the two upcoming fiscal years show that the district will begin to overspend by $13.2 million in 2023-2024 and by nearly $14 million in 2024-2025 due to the loss of state and federal COVID-19 funds, declining student enrollment and average daily attendance numbers, and increases in expenditures.

Public schools in California receive funding from the state based on the average daily attendance of their students. This year, schools nearly had a 92% attendance ratio, which is lower than the usual 94%.

The drop in attendance is largely due to COVID-19 quarantine restrictions.

“When we have fewer students enrolled and coming to school, we have less money coming into our schools,” Norman said.

Each year, the district projects losing approximately 410 students. This year the school district only TURN TO BUDGET ON 33

Carlsbad holds workshop on Village, Barrio design standards  Process meant to expedite Village, Barrio housing

By Steve Puterski

CARLSBAD — The city of Carlsbad held its first public workshop last week to discuss the creation of objective architectural design standards for multi-family housing and mixed-use projects in the Village and Barrio neighborhoods.

About 20 residents attended the workshop on June 29 at the Senior Center, facilitated by consultants Howard Blackson, an urban design and planning director at AVRP Skyport Studios, and Neal Payton, a senior principal at Torti Gallas + Partners.

In 2019, the Carlsbad City Council approved the formation of a resident-led committee to help develop up to five new objective design standards for the Village and Barrio Master Plan — from architecture styles to building materials — to “streamline the approval process for certain kinds of housing projects”... “without involving personal or subjective judgment by public officials or decision-makers.”

Due to the state’s housing shortage, California requires cities “have less control over how many new apartments and condos can be built and when,” the city’s website reads.

Blackson and Payton stressed that objective design standards would not change existing development standards — building height, density or setback requirements — all entrenched in the city’s municipal code and Village and Barrio Master Plan.

“This work does not replace, or in any way change, existing zoning,”

Payton said. “There is simply no change to the zoning itself. What this is intended to do, is to expedite the approval process for those projects that are conforming.”

Once the objective design standards are incorporated, a multi-family or mixed-project in the Village and Barrio Master Plan will not need approval from the city's Planning Commission or City Council.

The incentive, for a developer, is a more predictable outcome and shorter timeline.”

Howard Blackson AVRP Skyport Studios

“The incentive, for a developer, is a more predictable outcome and shorter timeline,” Blackson said. “This area has an eclectic mix, so we want quality architecture over any particular style.”

Carlsbad Principal Planner Eric Lardy said any multi-family or mixeduse project that meets all requirements set by Senate Bill 35 would be approved “ministerially” by city staff.

It takes about 12 to 18 months for a project to be approved and, depending on the size, at least another year for construction.

Payton said that the objective design standards aim to reduce housing project timelines by up to six months by providing developers with predetermined criteria to follow.

Currently, developers can use any design or features without knowing if a project will be approved, which can be a costly risk,

Blackson said.

Payton said the goal of the workshop was to answer questions and address concerns about the future of the city’s Village and Barrio neighborhood.

Residents, meanwhile, were still concerned with density, height limits, and how the “charm” and “feel” of the Village and Barrio may be disturbed.

Also, residents shared thoughts on adding green spaces to the development, underground parking and architectural alignment with the area.

Mona Gocan, chairwoman of the city's Design Review Committee, said some of the residents' concerns, including adding green spaces, cannot be altered in this process.

Gocan also stressed how the state legislature had removed a significant amount of local control, making it difficult for residents to accept the current situation.

“We cannot stop the development in the Village and Barrio because of the state requirements,” Gocan said. “But at least as residents, we can give our input on what the Village will look like in 10 or 20 years. I think it’s hard for residents to accept we have no control over it.”

Gocan urged all residents to participate in future workshops, which are open to the public.

The city will hold several more workshops.

The committee, which held its first meeting on April 25 and convenes again in August, has at least three more sessions before sending its recommendations to the Planning Commission for review.

According to the city’s timeline, the council is expected to adopt the objective design standards by next summer.

Bartlow’s position became effective July 1, and she can now focus on helping to foster a supportive learning environment for the Hawks, Huard said.

“As a school leader, Ms. Bartlow shares her desire to work with the school community to ensure that all students are provided with a rigorous, engaging, and supportive educational experience that enhances their opportunities to foster a lifelong commitment to learning,” Huard said.

“Ms. Bartlow strongly believes that to inspire greatness as future leaders, students must be provided opportunities to grow as learners grounded in both academics and social-emotional development.”

Cardiff School rebuild to resume after settlement

By Staff

ENCINITAS — After years of delays, court filings and disagreements, the Cardiff School District on June 3 announced it has reached a settlement with the National Park Service and California Department of Parks and Recreation regarding a 1993 land use grant agreement.

The settlement appears to mark the end of a yearslong battle over converting select areas of George Berkich Park to non-recreational uses.

According to a district release, the terms of the agreement will allow the school district to complete the final two elements of its long-awaited school modernization project at Cardiff Elementary School, including a multipurpose room and turf field restoration.

Under the settlement terms, the district must contribute $570,000 to help the state locate replacement property.

A majority of the school’s upgrades, funded primarily by Measure GG, have been completed since construction began in 2020, including new classrooms, lunch area, student drop-off and pickup areas, playfields, improved ADA access and new drainage and biofil-

tration systems to prevent flooding of the school’s playfields and adjacent streets.

Due to the delays caused by lawsuits, preliminary injunctions and rescinded approvals, the school district said the cost to complete these projects has far outpaced the original budget.

“We are so excited to finally complete these necessary improvements for our students’ and families’ safety, security, and educational programs,” said Rhea Stewart, board president of the Cardiff School District.

“After the tragic incident in Texas weeks ago, we are reminded that nothing is more important than campus safety.

“This settlement allows us to finally complete this critical feature of our campus to make sure our students and teachers gain access to additional 21st century school facilities improvements and remain safe.”

The project is expected to be completed by spring 2023.

Encinitas council OKs wastewater budget

Costco coming to Escondido mall

By Samantha Nelson

ESCONDIDO — A new Costco storefront is coming to Escondido.

The Escondido City Council approved a new lease agreement in late June for the wholesale retailer to replace the former Sears store on Westfield North County property located at the intersection of Via Rancho Parkway and Interstate 15.

The city owns seven of the eight parcels that make up the Westfield property. Six of those seven parcels are leased to tenants, including the Westfield North County Shopping Center, which rents Parcels 2, 5, 7, and 8.

The former Sears store is located on Parcel 1, leased by parent company Transformco until the council approved Costco Wholesale Corporation’s lease takeover during a special meeting on June 27.

The base rent for Costco will be $100,000 per year, which the company will have to start paying either in three years or once the store opens, whichever comes first.

The three-year rent grace period is intended to ease the entitlement and construction process for the store.

Deputy City Manager Chris McKinney noted that the City Council was only voting on an amendment to lease the parcel to Costco and not approving any applications or entitlements for the project at this time; however, those applications are expected to be turned in soon after the council’s approval of a lease amendment.

If Costco moves through with the entitlement process and is approved, the city anticipates $35 million in capital investments made to the property.

McKinney also noted that if a gas station is built, Costco would have to undergo environmental remediation of the property and remove the underground gas tanks if the lease is terminated.

Costco’s lease term is 20 years with seven 5-year extension options not to exceed a total of 55 years.

In addition to the lease amendment with Costco, the City Council also approved a 24-year lease extension of the Westfield North County Shopping Center ground lease to end concurrently with Costco’s lease if the company stays the entire 55 years.

The city anticipates $1.5 million in sales tax revenue from Costco during the first year of stable operation, 314 additional jobs and even more potential investment into the Westfield property.

“I think it will be very helpful for the mall,” said Councilmember Consuelo Martinez.

“I still shop at the mall, and even though there are some empty spaces there, there’s still a lot to visit, and I think Costco will help bring more people and more business to the mall.”

Councilmember Joe Garcia said the response from residents about Costco coming to Escondido has been mostly positive.

However, a few residents have mentioned concerns about traffic and competition with Target at the mall.

Deputy Mayor Tina Inscoe said she shops at Target and Costco and preferred to have the two in one place rather than driving to multiple locations.

“Having an anchor like Costco come in will make it more attractive,” Inscoe said. “I’m grateful that Costco came to us to look at our community and chose to begin this process.”

Councilmember Michael Morasco also welcomed Costco to the city’s District 4, which he represents.

He noted that he and Mayor Paul McNamara live close enough to walk to Costco once it opens.

Morasco said Costco is “very good for us, very good for the property,

ENCINITAS — In a special session before its summer recess, the Encinitas City Council moved into the next wastewater fiscal year.

With Mayor Catherine Blakespear and Deputy Mayor Joe Mosca absent, council members approved the city’s piece in the proposed Encina Wastewater Authority budgets for the next fiscal year at its June 29 special city council meeting.

Encintas is expected to see a 4.6% increase to its annual contributions.

The city’s obligation for 2022-23 is about $1.8 million, an increase of $78,477 from last year — with more than $1 million of it going toward the capital improvement program.

“This includes increases of about $66,000 to the operations and maintenance expenses due to higher costs for chemicals and delivery,” Finance Manager Mary Kazungu golf the council on June 29.

The increase also includes $177,214 in the En-

ENCINITAS OFFICIALS are expecting a 4.6% increase in the city’s annual contribution to the Encina Wastewater Authority budget. Photo via Facebook/Encina Wastewater Authority

cinitas Sanitary Division capital budget for needed improvements to the existing digesters, Kazungu added.

In 2023, the Encina Wastewater Authority will have paid off its $13.5 million in CalPERS pension liability. In 2019, following a $6 million increase in the city’s pension and retiree healthcare debt, the member agencies of the wastewater authority moved to reduce the debt by 2022.

The Encina Wastewa-

ter Authority is governed by a joint powers basic agreement with Carlsbad, Vista, Encinitas, Vallecitos Water District, Buena Sanitation District, and the Leucadia Wastewater District. Two members from each agency make up the Encina’s Joint Advisory Committee, which develops recommendations for the annual budget.

The agreement between Encinitas and surrounding cities that take advantage of the facility re-

quires each to weigh in on the annual budget.

As a member agency, Encinitas must authorize its portion of the Encina Wastewater Authority operating and capital improvement budgets before its July 1 deadline.

The city’s share of the operating and capital budgets is about 4%. This amount is based on the wastewater flows and the percentage of ownership the city has of the treatment plant.

Free transit fare program begins for foster youth

By City News Service

REGION — A pilot program that went into effect on July 1 offers free transit fares for people 18 through 24 who have previously been in and exited the foster care system, or who are currently in Extended Foster Care.

The San Diego Metropolitan Transit System and North County Transit District approved the PRONTO Extend pilot program in June “to provide support and improve access to opportunity for former foster youth and young adults currently in foster care as they transition into more independent living,'' according to a statement from the transit agencies.

“Young adults who have aged out of the foster care system face unique challenges as they enter adulthood,” said Nathan Fletcher, MTS board chair and chairman of the San Diego County Board of Supervisors. “Many of the transitional age youth don't have social safety nets or financial support from their families.

“Our goal with the PRONTO Extend program is to offer additional resources to ease that transition from foster care to more independent living. Being able to have free transportation to school or jobs is an important stepping stone to help them succeed.”

The program will be valid for all MTS and NCTD fixed-route bus services, the trolley, Sprinter and Coast-

er. Passes became available Friday.

“Whether participants are going to work, out for a day of fun or headed to school, transit will be their answer for a free ride they can rely on,'' said Jewel Edson, NCTD board chair and Solana Beach Councilwoman. “The NCTD Board of Directors are hopeful that PRONTO Extend will open a world of opportunities for the participants and bolster their lives.''

According to research

by CALYouth, around 25% of youth exiting foster care in California experience homelessness. About 77% wish they could get a higher education degree, but by age 21, fewer than 25% are able to enroll in a two-year or four-year college due to financial hardship or lack of resources.

“Like any youth transitioning into adulthood, the young adults who are or were involved with foster care have significant needs

to become independent; and reliable, affordable transportation is at the top of that list,” said Kimberly Giardina, director of the county’s Child Welfare Services.

The program will run for 18 months, from Friday through December 31, 2023.

Eligible participants will have one of the following current, valid forms

from the County of San Diego, or other county jurisdiction: — Notice of Action form; or — Proof of Dependency/Wardship Letter.

A surfer celebrates Independence Day

B

ack when smalltown America shut down on the 4th of July, and everyone of all races, ages and creeds got together to thank God for freedom, sparklers blistering fingers, fireworks stands offering a safer version of the cherry bombs we smuggled in from across the border, I did my part by cheering for the veterans parading down Main Street while I pledged allegiance before belting out songs of freedom, and eating enough hot dogs and apple pie for an entire battalion of revolutionary warriors.

Now, I wasn’t exceptionally patriotic for the times, just another proud American boy with a baseball cap covering a sum-

water spot chris ahrens mer crew cut.

By the summer of 1962, however, I was less interested in the rockets’ red glare than the oceanic colors of blue, green and gray that symbolized another sort of freedom to us, the newly liberated gremmies hoping to find our places in the lineup.

With no rules other than unwritten ones about sharing waves, taking care of our home beach and standing up for our

friends, we were free to ride any way and anywhere we wanted.

While most boards were 9-foot-plus single fins, we were free to ride any size and shape with as many fins as we desired.

You could paddle out in any sized surf from 1 to 20 feet without anyone but your parents trying to stop you.

Not only did surfing offer freedom, but also equality. Nobody I knew ever cared about economic status, race or creed, although residence was taken into consideration since non-locals, especially those from inland or out of state, were generally considered second-class citizens.

Even then, however, a non-local surfer could

find their way in through performance.

Another way to be accepted by the pack was by doing more than your share to keep the beach clean. Barring that, sharing food and beverages, or owning a car that could make it to Baja, could also lift the velvet ropes.

I realize that surfing, unless you consider the Chumash Indians with their plank canoes to be surfers, was not invented on this coast. Still, anything as untethered to the world of rules as surfing seems all-American to me.

This morning I stroked out under a blue sky before sliding into 2-to-4-foot surf. As the lineup became crowded, I was still free to do anything other than

have someone else’s good time.

I was free to catch the biggest or the smallest waves of each set. Free to go right or left. Free to hit the lip or fall off. The peak was soon packed with young rippers hungry for the best of whatever rolled through.

Because of that I exercised my freedom of choice and paddled away to worse, less-crowded surf, inwardly declaring my independence from the landlocked world seemingly obsessed with laws and licenses all limiting personal freedom.

I would like to say that I was free to rip the waves I caught this morning, but apparently there are some physical laws prohibiting that from occurring.

Feeling just Grand

C

all me Grandma! I joined this lovely club last week and it has already been filled with amazing moments.

My new grandbaby is a quite perfect little girl and I fell utterly in love at first sight. My son is delightfully besotted with her, and that is a joy like no other to see.

I had to wait a bit longer than most women, because I had my kids quite late. While they are both married, neither chose to procreate in a hurry.

I fear my creaking joints won’t lend themselves to being the kind of a grandma I want to be, but I plan to relish every minute.

I am still awed at the creation of this precious little human. I find all normal pregnancies and births to be a complete, unexplainable miracle.

When everything goes as it should, I stand astonished, because there are so many things that can go awry. But I was given the gift of beautiful children and it was, without question, the best thing I have ever done.

I am also so deeply touched by the singular, extraordinary feeling of watching my baby produce a baby and become a parent. It makes me shake my head in happy wonder.

Meeting my grandbaby, just three days old, flooded me with the happiest memories. I had forgotten when they are so new, they don’t do much but eat, sleep and look adorable.

And that is enough.

My son lives 2 ½ hours away, which is too, too far, of course, but better, I know, than grandmas who live states or countries away. I will be happily making that drive, as often as they will have me.

When your daughter-inlaw is the mom, it puts a different spin on things. My DIL is wonderful, but I must practice restraint I probably wouldn’t if it was my daughter. Anyone who knows me, knows that takes some real effort.

I want to snuggle that little girl and smother her with kisses from head to toe. I want to talk to her, feed her and burp her and rock her and take her for walks. This will all probably come in time, but I ache to do it right now, right now.

In the meantime, I am content to be the scullery maid, ready to clean house, do dishes and fix meals, so they can ease into being mom and dad and maybe get a little sleep.

My mom did it for me and it’s an absolute labor of love.

All in all, I’m not too shy to say I am feeling pretty darned special about something I had very little to do with.

Scripps to continue monitoring bluffs at Beacon’s Beach

By Jacqueline Covey

ENCINITAS — The city of Encinitas will continue to monitor landslide activity jointly with the Scripps Institute of Oceanography as residents begin to return to Beacon’s Beach.

The Encinitas Planning Commission, with Commissioner Steve Dalton absent, unanimously approved Scripps’ permit request to install temporary and permanent monitoring equipment at Beacon’s to measure seismic activity related to a minor bluff failure in May. The equipment includes electrical conduits and sensors located in trenches within the parking lot and instrumentation mast; deep/shallow borehole sensors in the parking lot and along the bluff; shallow monitoring points over the cliff and along the beach trail.

Three spaces within the parking lot area will be used for staging of equipment to conduct the shallow trenching, excavations and borehole drilling for the proposed project.

“I don’t think this city can afford to skip monitoring for safety in this case,” said Commissioner Susan Sherod, noting the fatal collapse at Leucadia’s Grandview Beach in 2019. “Now, fortunately, no life was lost at Beacon’s, but we can’t predict if the

Beacon’s Beach access trail, parking lot reopens

By Anna Opalsky

ENCINITAS — The parking lot and beach access trail at Beacon’s Beach will reopen June 30 after a month-long closure due to a reactivated landslide.

Following a May 2 bluff failure that created numerous cracks in the slope and damaged the iconic switchback trail that meanders down the bluff, crews repaired the trail and parking lot over this past week.

The bluff failure in May was part of a historic landslide at Beacon’s.

Multiple plans to stabilize the bluff have been proposed over the past few years, including replacing the trail with a staircase, constructing a permanent seawall or building a sand-cement buttress at the base of the landslide.

After a month of being separated from this Leucadia favorite, beachgoers are excited to once again frequent Beacon’s switchback trail.

“The trail is a critical part of Beacon’s and the experience there,” said Alex Mrazek, a member of Preserve Beacon’s.

“When you think about Encinitas and Leucadia, there’s not many beaches left where you can walk down a trail and it’s not

concrete or wooden stairs or big sea walls next to you.”

Ari Marsh, another member of Preserve Beacon’s, also sees the switchback trail as essential to Beacon’s.

“Beacon’s is like the epicenter of Leucadia,” Marsh said. “[The trail] is one of our last natural beach bluff access areas.

It’s a different experience than walking down a big huge concrete staircase.”

questioned by residents.

City staff is currently pursuing an Emergency Coastal Development Permit through the California Coastal Commission for the temporary closure of the parking lot and public access trail, and the installation of temporary inclinometer monitoring devices (sensor measuring slope displacements) needed to document the current bluff activity.

“The emergency work needed to be out there to ensure we may maintain public access as soon as possible,” Planning Manager Anna Colamussi told commissioners of the May

incident.

Scripps responded quickly thanks to an ongoing coastal monitoring grant approved and funded through Assembly Bill 66 in 2021.

Per AB 66, Scripps Institution of Oceanography is permitted to research cliff landslides and erosion from Black’s Beach to Carlsbad until 2025.

(A report with legislative recommendations and an early warning system is expected by March 15 of the same year.)

“I want my trail back; I want Beacon’s back,” said Commissioner Robert Prendergast at the June

29 special meeting, adding he was “overjoyed that Scripps is part of this process.”

Members of the public questioned the institute’s permissibility to take on the work, as well as the overall legality of closing a public access point in the coastal zones.

Matthew Gordon, a resident on the south end of Beacon’s Beach, called on the commission to review the California Coastal Act and coastal development permit. Gordon believes that already-completed work should be treated as a liability under the law.

“There can be no Plan-

ning Commission approval for Scripps’ [Coastal Development Permit] because the work is completed and the monitoring started weeks ago,” Gordon said, calling on members to immediately halt monitoring work related to Beacon’s Beach. “No one knows if that work was done properly or according to the plans and what was done to the bluffs.”

In a five-page letter to the California Coastal Commission and shared with the Planning Commission, Chandra Slaven, a planning specialist and coastal land-use consultant, claimed the city released bogus public notices that the landslide was hazardous and allowed un-permitted work on the bluff.

Slaven believes the landslide monitoring activities and public closures of the state beach violate the state Constitution and the Coastal Act. She claims the city missed its deadline to file for adequate permitting and must move to address a long-term solution to preserving public access at Beacon’s Beach or Leucadia State Beach.

“We cannot continue to keep revisiting this issue every year,” Slaven wrote. “The time is now for a long-term planned solution that includes all members of the public who frequent Beacon’s Beach.”

Leitner’s lane change put him on road to Padres Hall of Fame sports talk jay paris

T

It wasn’t always that way for one of the newest members of the Padres Hall of Fame.

“Early in my career I was this brash, Howard Cosell-type,” Leitner said.

“I would give opinions, be bombastic and arrogant.”

L eitner, the local LEITNER CBS affiliate sports anchor from 1978 to 2002, had an epiphany when he was hired as a radio broadcaster for the Padres in 1980. He got what he thought was a one-year trial when Jerry Coleman left the booth to manage the Padres.

the Colonel told Leitner, a Carmel Valley resident, to tap the brakes on being pompous, Leitner did something rare — he listened.

“The idea that I could be different and last through all these different owners over the years to ultimately go into the team’s

hall of fame is icing on the cake,” he said, with a chuckle. “It really is a big deal.”

Leitner was on the dial whenever the Padres played until 2020. While stepping aside from his baseball duties, Leitner remains the voice of San Diego State football and basketball.

“Ted made the games entertaining when we weren’t very good,” said Peter Seidler, the Padres owner who notified Leitner of his induction. “He is a

treasure.”

Now he’s enshrined with the likes of Ted Williams, Tony Gwynn, Trevor Hoffman and how exactly did this former blowhard blow past his detractors?

Again, it was all because of Coleman, the gentle man with grace and class whom Leitner refers to as his second father.

on July 9. “He was also my mentor, friend and career adviser. He would always tell me when I would start to berate someone or question why (manager) Bruce Bochy did something, that I didn’t know what I didn’t know. He told me that I had never played the game and it was a tough game.''

I always thought Leitner did his best work when Padres fans were experiencing tough times. He supplied the right tone and approach when speaking at the heartbreaking memorials for Coleman and Gwynn.

When Padres fans were grieving, Uncle Teddy’s shoulder always seemed like a good destination.

That the Padres advanced to the 1998 World Series against the New York Yankees, was special for Leitner. As a Bronx teenager, he hawked everything from sodas to peanuts in the original Yankee Stadium.

Just don’t ask about the days when he peddled hot chocolate during those humid summers.

“I had to wear this big tank on my back and it felt like a flame-thrower,” Leitner said, and here comes his signature cackle again. “I was walking the aisles and sweating my (tail) off.

“But then I would look to my left and there was Mickey Mantle and then I would look to my right and there was Roger Maris. In the press box there were Hall of Famers like Mel Allen, Red Barber and Jerry Coleman.”

Ah yes, the Colonel, Leitner's reliable, and ultra-popular half of their radio combination. They were smoother than most of the teams they were yapping about.

“Just one more time,” Leitner said. “I’d like to say, ‘So Jer, what did you do today?’”

That inquiry would unleash a tsunami of stories that the audience cherished. That they came to love Leitner so much that he now stands in the Padres Hall of Fame was a bet Leitner would have lost.

“It’s the greatest thing that has ever happened to me professionally,” Leitner said. “I tell you one thing, I wasn’t turning it down.”

Padres honks seldom lowered the volume when Leitner cleared his throat.

That he's choked up over being honored isn’t a surprise.

Same goes for him making sure Coleman gets his due.

“It was Teddy and Jerry for 35 years and people just go so comfortable with us,” Leitner said. "In writing my book (“Ted Talks”) it reminded me that, my God, there was always somebody there to help and no one more so than the Colonel.”

Agree, but now it’s time to salute Leitner.

One Safe Place opens to local crime victims

COUNTY SUPERVISOR Jim Desmond has advocated for the maximum sentence for Craig Blas, who was arrested 10 times since 2020 on drug and gun charges. Photo via Twitter

Officials urge maximum penalty for Escondido man  Craig Blas has been arrested 10 times since 2020

By Samantha Nelson

ESCONDIDO — County and city officials are urging the maximum sentence for a man repeatedly arrested and released over the past two years on felony gun and drug charges.

Craig Blas, 32, was arrested in May after police found a handgun magazine, 235 fentanyl pills, 3.56 grams of powder fentanyl, 36 grams of methamphetamine, three fake oxycodone pills that tested positive for fentanyl, a loaded magazine, a digital scale, small bags that appear to be used for selling drugs, a red dot sight for a pistol and $738 in cash on him.

The latest incident marked the tenth arrest for Blas since he was released from prison in 2019.

In 2020, Blas was arrested seven times for felony possession of drugs and weapons. He was detained again in 2021 for drugs, guns and the suspected sale of narcotics.

Before that, he was arrested in 2017 for possessing an assault rifle and again the following year for illegal possession of a short-barreled shotgun.

According to court records, Blas has a sentencing hearing scheduled for July 12. County Supervisor Jim Desmond, who has been outspoken on the situation surrounding Blas, said more than 200 letters were sent to the District Attorney’s Office and the judge urging Blas to be sentenced to prison for a long time.

Desmond joined Escondido Mayor Paul McNamara, Deputy Mayor Tina Inscoe, Interim Police Chief David Cramer, and Christi Knight, president of the Escondido Union High School board, for a press conference at the police department headquarters on June 21 to push for sentencing of Blas and urge the laws that allowed him to walk

free so many times to change.

“Ten arrests in the last two years is just way too many,” Desmond said.

Desmond said Blas had been released so many times due to the “unintended consequences” of Proposition 47 and Assembly Bill 109.

Proposition 47 was a ballot measure approved by voters in 2014 that turned some non-violent property crimes where the value does not exceed $950 and simple drug possession offenses into misdemeanors.

Assembly Bill 109 allows non-violent, non-serious and non-high-risk sex offenders to be supervised at the county level after they are released from state prison.

Desmond said AB 109 brought felons who should be in state prison back into the county jails, which overcrowded them and forced many inmates to be released.

According to Desmond, Prop 47 has led to no jail time or rehabilitation services for criminals.

The supervisor also brought up the case of Justin Flores, who killed two police officers in El Monte earlier in June.

After shooting the two officers in the head, Flores exchanged fire with other officers who arrived on the scene before killing himself.

Flores, like Blas, also had been arrested several times prior.

Desmond said he would be working with local law enforcement and District Attorney Summer Stephan over the next month to find ways to close the loopholes in the justice system that allow criminals like Blas to walk free.

McNamara said it was time for the community to stand up and take action against the loopholes.

“Criminals need to have consequences, and right now, they don’t,” the mayor said. “It’s time for us to start talking to our elected officials not just here but in Sacramento and say we need to have consequences.”

SAN MARCOS — A new family justice center finally opened its doors in San Marcos this week, helping to fill a gap in crucial services for survivors of domestic violence, human trafficking and child abuse in North San Diego County.

The 44,000-square-foot facility on Los Vallecitos Boulevard known as One Safe Place has been years in the making, spearheaded by San Diego County District Attorney Summer Stephan. The building was constructed and is managed by the San Diego County District Attorney’s Office.

For many years, the county’s only family justice center was in downtown San Diego. When a 2019 report from the District Attorney’s Office found disproportionate levels of domestic abuse homicide in North County, the need for increased services in the area became more apparent than ever.

Partnering with over 70 county organizations, One Safe Place provides acute crisis care, forensic medical exams, advocacy, counseling and therapy, legal services such as restraining orders, clothing and resources related to housing, jobs and educational opportunities.

“What we are looking for in this place is to save a life,” Stephan said. “The data really showed that there is a disproportionate level of family violence that has led to homicide in North County. When we ask the question of, ‘Why does this happen?’ the answer was that there’s not enough prevention services.”

On July 2, just three days before the center officially opened, over 100 residents and local officials attended a welcome event where they were able to tour the facility and connect with dozens of the partnering organizations, including Palomar Health, Sharia’s Closet, San Diego Humane Society and others.

Oceanside resident Jessica Garcia explored the facility with her family and her kids delighted at the brand-new amenities, vibrant children’s area and variety of comfortable areas to relax.

“I really like it. It’s homey, it’s comfortable, it feels open, and it does feel safe,” Garcia said. “It’s kind of exciting, to have a place to feel like I can hide here. That’s the reason I brought my kids too, so they can know that if you need to, you have resources.”

While nondescript on the outside, situated among a sea of large, gray retail stores, the interior of One Safe Place is anything but.

Wood paneling, calm lighting and a variety of comfortable seating options replace any sense of sterility, even in the medical examination areas, court office where individuals can seek a restraining order, and law enforcement hub on the second floor where survivors can choose to

meet with detectives.

Tree branch imagery, bamboo and a large pyramid structure in the Welcome Hub — a favorite symbol in the District Attorney’s Office as a solid structure that survives centuries — are intended to communicate the center’s mission for resiliency and healing.

Along with the children’s room, a clothing boutique, hair salon, interfaith space and kitchen await guests to help meet their

needs.

“We wanted this place to feel like family, and if people came from violence and didn’t feel safe at home, they will feel safe here,” Stephan said.

The Dress for Hope clothing boutique, operated by nonprofit Sharia’s Closet, is the first thing guests see when they enter the main service area of the building. Here, guests can pick out polished outfits for job interviews, court appearances and other

events for free, as well as find emergency clothing for men, women and children.

“I believe that every community needs the type of service that we provide,” said founder and CEO Shamine Linton. “It’s really honoring people where they are, if they want gender neutral clothing, if you like light colors, if you don’t want polka dots … we say, we can do that. Those are actions behind those words — loving people.”

The center is open to residents from all over the county but will be focused on assisting residents in North County. The center partners specifically with the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department and the police departments in Carlsbad, Oceanside and Escondido.

One Safe Place is open and available for walk-ins Monday to Friday from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Saturday from 8 a.m. to noon. Residents can also make an appointment for services at gethope@OneSafePlaceNorth.org or 760-2903690.

“How DARE you disagree with me?!” prevails from all sides. People losing an argument oftentimes revert to name-calling and bullying.

As my friend Dave once observed, the moment you call someone a name, you’ve lost them. Any chance of civil discourse with “the other side” disappears in that instant.

Which brings us to today’s Facebook exchange with someone I know casually. The moment I questioned his logic, he attacked. He bullied. He called me SO many names, and was so disgusting, that I immediately disconnected with him and want nothing more to do with him.

My desire to do business with this man immediately evaporated. He showed his true colors and isn’t someone I will further associate with.

You’ve probably got your own opinions about the issues du jour and may even be tempted to discuss them with your clientele.

However, recognize going in that if you’re disagreeing with your customer, you risk losing that person’s business. Meaning you’d better have plans in place to replace it from someone within your own “tribe.”

With that said, I wish you a week of profitable marketing.

4 ex-Navy officers convicted in ‘Fat Leonard’ bribery case

By City News Service

SAN DIEGO — Four of five former Navy officers charged with accepting bribes from foreign defense contractor Leonard Glenn “Fat Leonard” Francis were convicted June 29 by a San Diego federal jury.

Prosecutors allege the defendants, former members of the U.S. Navy’s Seventh Fleet, took bribes in exchange for providing Francis with classified information regarding ship schedules and used their positions to influence the movements of ships to ports serviced by Francis’ Singapore-based company, Glenn Defense Marine Asia.

Prosecutors allege GDMA overbilled the Navy by over $35 million to provide husbanding services.

The trial, which began in February, resulted in convictions for conspiracy, bribery and other charges against former Cmdr. Mario Herrera and former Capts.

David Newland, James

Dolan and David Lausman.

Jurors were unable to reach a verdict against former Rear Adm. Bruce Loveless.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office alleged that, in exchange for steering business to GDMA, the officers accepted expensive meals, fancy accommodations and the services of prostitutes, all on Francis’ dime.

Francis and more than two dozen others have pleaded guilty in connection with the case. Many of those who pleaded guilty testified at trial, though Francis, who has not yet been sentenced, was not called to the stand as initially planned.

Defense attorneys for the former officers argued that Francis and others who pleaded guilty implicated their clients to avoid harsher punishment.

They also alleged their clients lacked the ability to influence Navy procedures to the degree prosecutors claimed.

School districts revisit safety policies in wake of Uvalde shooting

By Laura Place

REGION — In the weeks since a gunman opened fire on elementary school students in Uvalde, Texas, coastal school districts in Encinitas, Del Mar and Solana Beach have begun evaluating and bolstering their safety plans to prevent a similar tragedy on their campuses.

The May 24 attack at Robb Hill Elementary School left 19 children and two adults dead and 17 others injured, making it the second-deadliest school shooting in the country’s history.

However, the rampant issue of school gun violence has been all too familiar to educational agencies for years — the Uvalde attack marked the country’s 27th school shooting in 2022 alone.

Local school districts are required under the California Education Code to have comprehensive safety plans for each school site and update them regularly.

Districts have some flexibility in implementing these plans, and many, like the Del Mar Union School District, have already created them with the possibility of school shootings in mind.

“We got those safety plans in place when there was another school shooting, and it really pains me to have been here and to be able to say that there are so many school shootings going on. Enough already is what everybody’s thinking,” said Doug Rafner, a Del Mar Union trustee.

“Rest assured that fortunately, but unfortunately, we are well prepared to take care of your children.”

In late June, the district reviewed several elements of the safety plan and proposed ways to bolster security. According to officials, each school’s perimeter fencing is secured by custodial staff once the school day starts, limiting the points of entry to just the front offices. There, all visitors undergo a background check via the Raptor system.

Security cameras are currently being installed at Pacific Sky School, and the district will be putting out a request for proposals to install cameras at the remaining seven schools, officials said.

Executive Director of Student Services Jennifer Huh also emphasized that the district focuses on training staff to respond to multiple emergencies while training students to follow directions from adults.

“As an elementary school district, we want to ensure that our trainings are really developmentally appropriate for our students, and that’s why we’re really focusing on ensuring that the adults know the best response for the situation and are able to advise the students in those moments and direct the students, and the students are prepared to follow the teacher’s directive,” Huh told the school board on June 22.

In the neighboring Solana Beach School District, officials are reviewing and updating school safety plans to account for physical and social-emotional safety.

Over the next month, principals from each of the seven district sites will conduct site walk-throughs with law enforcement and share suggestions from parents, staff and the community. District leadership will also meet with law enforcement, superintendent Jodee Brentlinger said in a June 16 presentation to the school board.

Feedback from these discussions and recommendations from the annual California Safe Schools Conference in mid-July will then be used to identi-

fy improvement measures, which will be implemented through August.

District officials also plan to present a school safety update to the board and hold school-specific and district-wide school safety meetings in August.

Board members will soon be presented with a resolution committing to continued collaboration with local stakeholders to create a safe school environment and recognize school gun violence as an epidemic that the federal government must address.

On the high school level, students in the San Dieguito Union High School District are joining in the calls for increased safety measures.

Shane Baum, who will

be a senior and Associated Student Body vice president at La Costa Canyon Academy in the fall, spoke during the district board’s June 23 meeting about the impacts of continued gun violence and called on the district to share information about safe storage laws and support common-sense gun legislation for background checks.

“America’s schools used to be the safest place for children to be in on a daily basis. Over the last 20 years, our students, educators and parents have lived with devastating school shootings,” Baum said. “We can foster safe, supportive schools free from gun violence by addressing the factors that lead to violent incidents and implementing

proven strategies that contribute to a healthy school environment.”

At the same meeting, trustees entered a contentious discussion about whether to revise a board policy regarding a school’s response to a student who brings a firearm or other dangerous weapon onto school property.

Board president Maureen "Mo" Muir proposed changing a piece of the policy, which states that the principal of a school “shall notify law enforcement authorities” when a student brings a weapon, to say that a principal “must notify law enforcement authorities.” “‘Shall’ is not mandatory. We have to notify our law enforcement, and we have to take care of all of our students and ensure their safety on our campuses,” Muir said.

She noted later that involving law enforcement does not always mean they VOLUNTEER

show up at the school with guns drawn. It could mean they visit the home of the involved student with district officials to notify the student’s parents, as was done during the past school year in response to a threat left by a student on one of the school campuses.

Interim superintendent Tina Douglas assured the board that the district already interprets the word “shall” in the policy as meaning “must.” Other board members also expressed concerns about deviating from the state ed code, which also uses the word “shall,” and emphasized the importance of de-escalation.

“I think that the reason that ‘shall’ is in there is it gives some flexibility to see that police will be reported and … to address the exact situation and de-escalate it. We don’t want to TURN TO SCHOOL SAFETY ON 22

“Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal.” — Irish proverb

Born in San Diego; Died in Cardiff, CA in his sleep. He suffered from neuropathy. He was a well-known local surfer.

Lovingly remembered by his girlfriend Victoria Tagliamento, and her daughter Ava, his sister Milani Sommerville Elliott and her daughter Grace Elliott, his brother Douglas Somervielle (Heather) and their children Aden and Sivanna, and his mother Nancy Sommerville.

He was preceded in death by his father, Richard John Sommerville.

His celebration of life service is July 16, 2022 , at 10:30 am, at Solana Beach Presbyterian Church (120 Stevens Avenue, Solana Beach, 92075)

The pre-printed sympathy card is the default choice for most people and is still an acceptable way to go. When writing a personal note inside, don’t be afraid to use the deceased’s name, to recall a fond memory, or to mention an anecdote about how the person affected your life. Those remembrances will be treasured by the family and often kept for years.

Sending notes throughout the year, will help support the family, especially around holidays, anniversaries of special events, birthdays, etc.

Food is another comfort option. Grief causes both physical and emotional exhaustion and cooking may seem like an overwhelming chore, whether for just one or for an entire family. This option doesn’t have to be for just a few days around the funeral; if you can help once a week for a few weeks, it can truly make a difference.

Finally, if you have time to commit, offer to run errands, grocery shop, etc. Or take them out to lunch, on a trip to the park, etc. Each of these options help ease the grieving process!

State hospital proposes new home for SVP

By City News Service

REGION — State hospital officials have proposed placing a 79-yearold man classified as a sexually violent predator at a supervised home in Borrego Springs, it was announced Tuesday.

The proposal would place Douglas Badger into a home at 1619 Zuni Trail. A court hearing on the merits of the proposed location is set for Aug. 5, during which the public may weigh in on whether the location is appropriate.

Public comments will also be accepted via phone, email, or mail between July 8 and July 22 regarding the placement Badger was convicted of offenses that include child molestation, kidnapping and forcible oral copulation, with his victims predominately being male strangers, many of them hitchhikers, according to the San Diego County District Attorney's Office.

Badger is classified as a sexually violent predator, a designation for those convicted of sexually violent offenses and diagnosed with a mental disorder that makes them likely to re-offend. After serving their prison sentences, SVPs may undergo treatment at state hospitals, but may also petition courts to continue treatment in supervised outpatient locations.

Badger was previously recommended for conditional release into a home in the Mount Helix neighborhood, which drew considerable pushback from residents and a judge eventually ruling against placing Badger there.

Another placement was proposed last year for a home in Rancho Bernardo, but the owners of the home later withdrew their agreement to allow their property to house SVPs. A court hearing is also scheduled later this week regarding the proposed placement of another SVP, Michael Martinez, at a Borrego Springs home on Running M Road.

Comments regarding Badger’s placement may be made at the hearing on August 5 at the San Diego Central Courthouse or submitted by calling 858-495- 3619 or emailing sdsafe@sdsheriff.org.

CRASH

CONTINUED FROM FRONT

just days before her 25th birthday.

Halbert completed ATP flight school in 2020 and had earned her certified flight instructor, certified flight instructor instrument, and multi-engine instructor licenses, according to her LinkedIn. The injured pilot was identified on social media as Matt Wampler, chief pilot at Skydive Spaceland San Marcos in San Marcos, Texas. A GoFundMe set up to help Wampler with medical costs has raised over $21,000, and family members say he is now recovering at home.

Both the Federal Aviation Administration and the National Transportation Safety Board are investigating the accident. A preliminary report released by NTSB in the weeks following the accident provides a small glimpse into what might have caused the accident, although many details are still murky.

The report states that the “right-seated pilot,” referring to Wampler, “could not recall many of the details leading up to the accident,” presumably because of his severe injuries, but that he recalled everything going as planned with the departure and unloading of the skydivers during the flight.

During this flight, Wampler was conducting training for Halbert, who had six days of experience flying a Cessna 208 and was on her third day in the left seat.

Wampler recounted to investigators that, as the plane was making its final descent in an idle power position, he attempted to increase the engine power via the throttle twice but found it unresponsive.

With the aircraft an estimated 400 feet above ground level at this point, Wampler told investigators he aimed for an open dirt field. However, upon noticing a berm in the immediate flight path, he maneuvered the plane into a right turn.

The NTSB report states the plane struck the ground in a nose-down position before hitting the berm and coming to a stop.

The report confirms that around 50 gallons of what looked like fuel were found in the plane’s right wing, with additional fuel found in other parts of the plane, suggesting that fuel levels were not an issue.

However, analysis of the engine indicates the plane could not break from the idle position during its descent, according to the report.

“The preliminary findings from the engine breakdown … were consistent with the engine running at a low power setting at the time of impact,” NTSB investigators wrote.

Investigators noted the details in the report are subject to change as complete investigations into aviation accidents can take over a year.

The June 3 accident marked the second crash of a Cessna 208B operated by

GoJump near the Oceanside Municipal Airport in four months. Another crash in late February left two pilots severely injured but did not result in casualties.

The company’s operations appear to have continued as normal since the June 3 crash, with customers able to book jumps throughout the upcoming weeks. GoJump officials have not responded to multiple requests for comment.

According to NTSB spokesman Peter Knudson, the NTSB does not have regulatory authority over an aviation operator but occasionally issues recommendations to a company during an investigation. However, Knudson said the agency had not issued guidance to GoJump or the two companies that owned the planes involved in the two crashes.

Skydiving aviation accidents are rare, with approximately 3 million jumps taking place per year and nine fatal accidents killing 26 people occurring between 2012 and 2021, according to the United States Parachute Association.

The June 3 wreck is one of the more recent in a series of small plane crashes in San Diego County over the past 18 months.

In March 2021, three adults in a small private plane were uninjured after their craft went down near El Capitan Reservoir in East County.

Several months later, a small Piper aircraft registered to two Carlsbad veter-

inarians made an emergency landing on Interstate 5 near Via De La Valle.

Just nine minutes after takeoff, the plane made a right-hand turn northbound up the coast before apparently making an emergency landing on southbound lanes of I-5 in Del Mar. Flight-track logs revealed the plane topped out at 1,800 feet before descending rapidly at approximately 1,000-feet per minute.

No clear cause of the wreck was determined at the time.

Last fall, a twin-engine Cessna C340 crashed in a residential neighborhood on Oct. 11 near Santana High School in Santee, killing at least two people, injuring several others and engulfing homes in flames.

Two months later, a Learjet 35A business jet,

Ways to experience joy of ‘paying it forward’ share in the bounty of their home-grown produce and distribute that produce to local residents who are in need of additional food that their budget does not allow.

“We also hope that the recipients of the food donations will have an opportunity to grow their own food someday, and we will be demonstrating easy container garden techniques at the Rock Shop as well.

“Visit us on Sundays in Carlsbad, and we will show you how!”

S

omeone left me a gift last week — quite anonymously and unexpected.

Two huge, dried flower pods the size of a small baby’s head were left on the work table at the Pine Street Community Garden in Carlsbad.

This is where I teach a gardening class for Carlsbad seniors and grow everything from tomatoes to zucchini, herbs and flowers, in a large 4-by-16-foot raised bed.

SUNFLOWER SURPRISES Upon further investigation, I found out that the flowers are Russian Mammoth Sunflower and are destined to reach 7 feet tall.

I have written about the art of seed saving in previous articles, but sunflowers are by far the easiest flower to save.

Simply remove them from the seed head, scrape off the chaff or dirt on top of the pod and dry out for a week or so.

After one week, they will be ready to plant, and you too can have a sunflower garden that looms over all the rest.

And don’t forget to “pay it forward” to others by distributing your seeds to friends.

A FREE PAINTED ROCK Another enjoyable activity that I have recently been introduced to is the fairly new hobby of painted rocks.

You may have seen such rocks in homeowners’ gardens, but locals are secretly spreading joy to people who are walking in parks or on the beach and find a brightly painted rock hidden under a tree or beach grass.

According to a fellow rock painter who explains the process on her website (a ne xerc is ei n f r uga l it y. com): “I have found that painting and hiding rocks is a way to spread a little happiness to my neighbors.

I started painting rocks with uplifting quotes and characters to give people something to look at during the pandemic.

“Sure, in the grand

scheme of things, finding a rock isn’t going to solve the world’s problems, but it definitely brings joy to those who find them!”

To learn more about the art of rock painting and spreading joy with a simple rock visit the Oceanside Painted Rocks page on Facebook.

Making the perfect summer cocktail grocery I like, but any fresh-squeezed lemonade will do. Big, fat mint leaves are best. I suggest avoiding the pre-packaged ones from the store and asking around the neighborhood.

Someone has to have a mint plant gone wild nearby. If not, maybe it’s time for you to invest in one.* Make yourself a whiskey lemonade. Find a patio — preferably with a sunset view — and kick the flipflops off to the side. Take a small sip. Feel time slow down around you. Summer is only around for so long.

Make it last.

T

he official summer solstice is in the rear view mirror, and fireworks are peeking over the tree line in the distance, which means it is time to start thinking about what cocktail will make the rest of summer perfect.

The perfect summer cocktail should be lightly sweet. Not so sweet you get a stomach ache, but just enough to substitute for a dessert. It should be refreshing and cold. No coffee cocktails here.

It should feel just a touch exotic, so you can imagine you're on vacation even if the only sand you’re dipping your toes in is in your mind. It should reflect that iconic American summer night you’ve seen on the big screen — hot days, humid nights.

The threat of dry lightning dissipates into red and purple streaked skies just after sunset.

A key component to the perfect summer cocktail is the ease of creation. You’ll want to be able to make one for yourself or whip up a batch for an impromptu patio party at a moment's notice. I try to work within the three-ingredient guideline with some flexibility to improvise.

Luckily for you, the loyal readers of the Cheers!

North County column, I’ve been doing some research.

WHISKEY LEMONADE with a few muddled mint leaves is the perfect summer cocktail. Photo by Ryan Woldt

I’ve drunk more funky mojitos than I know what to do with, but that isn’t it.

Too many ingredients and they tend to make a mess. I’ve sampled vodkas with fancy seltzer.

I’ve considered the oldfashioned. I’ve gone off the beaten path to ask wizened old-timers what has kept them going year after year.

In the case of my 99-year-old grandfather, Melvin, it has been a weekly can of ice-cold Busch Light, but that isn’t the destination we’re seeking.

I’m writing this on July 4th. America seems to be in the throes of an identity crisis — wavering between extreme self-confidence and teenage angst over whether

it wants to sit at the table with the jocks or goths or stoners or preps.

Perhaps it is merely coincidental that I came upon the perfect summer cocktail while considering the whole of America amid a 4000-mile cross-country road trip.

The perfect summer cocktail doesn’t have a fancy name. Whiskey, lemonade, and a few muddled mint leaves in a glass with ice. It’s perfect.

I prefer a solid but not too fancy American straight whiskey, but you could make it with rye, wheat, corn, or bourbon whiskey.

Summer cocktail recipe • 2 ounces whiskey (or roughly two fingers high if you wrap your hand around the glass) • four big mint leaves (or 10. Up to you.)

• 4-6 ounces lemonade • ice Step 1: Toss a few mint leaves into a glass with a splash of lemonade. Muddle. Muddlers are just little sticks or pestles that you use to lightly beat up the mint leaves, releasing their aroma and essence into the cocktails. If you don't have a muddler, any spoon will do.

Step 2: Add a handful of ice. I don’t like to fill the glass because it waters down the drink a little too much, but it will depend a bit on the glass size.

Step 3: Pour in the whiskey. Measure it if you want.

Step 4: Top with lemonade.

ico and I scrambled to keep up with the rush of new wines and wine events that sprang to life in the last six months. It was music to our ears to hear the give and take from wine lovers who packed the restaurants and wineries, sipping fine wine with bold culinary menus.

My five wine picks came from California’s central and north coast: syrah, pinot noir, zinfandel, cabernet sauvignon and merlot.

Booker Fracture Syrah, Paso Robles, 2019. $98: The wine produces a rich, velvety mouthfeel on the palate, at once intense yet smooth with traces of sweet beets, dark plums and chocolate. Pair it best with slowbraised meat dishes.

Booker Syrah is 100% estate fruit and a true reflection of the calcareous shale hillsides from their Westside Paso Robles vineyard. BookerWines.com.

Chamisal Pinot Noir, Edna Valley San Luis Obispo, 2017. $45: This pinot meets every checklist for a classic wine of character, with its cool climate, soil composition and what’s known as signature “Chamisal Spice.”

This first vineyard planted in the Edna Valley has long produced wines of great character and expression. ChamisalVineyards. com.

Grgich Hills Zinfandel, Rutherford Napa Valley, 2016. $38: Zinfandel pioneer Mike Grgich has long been the source of lifetime achievements since he outscored the best French Chardonnays in the 1976 Paris

Tasting.

Grich’s zinfandels, grown on his 30-acre personal property, has classic notes of strawberries, raspberries, black pepper and spiced plums. Grgich’s roots are from Croatia, proven to be the source for zinfandel.

(Grgich.com.)

Justin Cabernet Sauvignon, Paso Robles, 2019. $26: Climate and soil are the riches that make Justin wines great. This entry-level Justin cab could be the highest level varietal in other wineries, but at Justin, it’s the highest level value of their group.

The secret here is that Justin employs artisanal techniques typically reserved for its most revered labels like hand harvesting, sorting and small barrel aging. At this price point, this Justin is the “best bang for the buck.” (JUSTINwine. com) Daou Family Estates Sequentis Merlot, Paso Robles, 2019. $52: This new generation reserve merlot from winemaker Daniel Daou creates a new direction for this venerable and up-to-now misdirected varietal.

This James Suckling 93pt awardee has floral notes of jasmine and pineapple. The pineapple extends to the palate along with peach and nectarine with a creamy texture. (Beringer.com) Campagnola Amarone della Valpolicella Classico, Veneto Italia, 2017. $22: The Corvina/Corvi-

none Veronese (75%) and Rondinella (25%) fruit is picked in September and dried like raisins for about 100 days losing about 35% of its weight. The result is deep ruby color with intense cherry, plum, and vanilla aromas flowing into the full-bodied palate. This wine pairs well with any rich marinara sauce dish!

(Campagnola.com) Howell Mountain Vineyards, Reserve Cab Sauv, Napa County, 2017. $100: At 1,800 feet elevation on volcanic soil, Howell Mountain Vineyards is home to some of the oldest zinfandel and cabernet sauvignon vines, starting in the 1870s.

The 2017 vintage had smaller berries, intense color, blackberry and cherry on the palate with an earthy finish and firm tannins. ( Howel l mou nta inv ine yards.com)

In the back of the space, a relatively small coffee roaster is set off by a spotlight and protected from the masses by a theater rope. I’m guessing they aren’t running their coffee production through here.

Vigilante originated on the East Coast.

They have two cafe roastery spaces in Maryland. The roaster in Oceanside is more suited to smallbatch experimentation than producing the type of poundage needed for the espresso bar.

Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley, 2020. $82: As always, one of Napa Valley’s influential winemakers, Chuck Wagner, hit another home run with 2020, as he has done so since 1972.

While the exact percentages are never published, 2020 is farmed from eight of Napa’s 16 sub-appellations providing a diverse makeup and possibly one of his best to date. Any Caymus enophile will recognize the dark color with ripe fruit, cocoa and a hint of cassis on the nose and palate.

way behind us.

My coffee is good. I wouldn’t have guessed it was a dark roast. It has a rich flavor to it that fuels continual sipping. It is full-bodied and very light on acidity, making it easy to drink on an empty stomach.

According to a barista, the coffee is sourced from Santo Domingo, Cacalotepec, a remote community in Northern Oaxaca, Mexico.

It is a blend of beans from 13 small farm producers.

Small meaning about three sacks of coffee each per year.

Hotels slow to get hang of water conservation effort hit the road e’louise ondash

A

s I write, I’m about to get on an airplane and head to the Midwest.

During our visit, we’ll stay in a modestly priced chain hotel that offers an in-room fridge and microwave, and a free buffet breakfast. All good.

What the hotel won’t offer are towel racks.

I know, who cares about towel racks? Whoever even thinks about towel racks?

I don’t — except when I need one and it isn’t there.

I realize the absence of towel racks in hotels is not a problem that will tip the balance of world power or lose a war, but the lack of them does affect the environment.

Long ago and far away, when the daily change of linens and towels was de rigueur and the scarcity of water was not on our radar, there was no need for an extra rack or two where guests could dry their towels. We used them and tossed them.

Times and awareness have changed.

Now hotel guests often find little tent signs placed in bathrooms or on desks

or beds asking to help conserve water by forgoing daily linen changes and reusing towels. Just hang the towels you intend to reuse, the signs say, and put the ones you want replaced on the floor.

Glad to oblige, but there’s one problem: There is nowhere to hang those wet towels.

And don’t tell me to use that hook on the back of the door. Towels do not dry on a hook. I’m not a physics genius, but I know that if most of a towel’s surface area is not exposed to the air, it remains soggy.

I’ve spent hundreds of nights in hundreds of various types of lodging — some of them fivestar — and I have yet to find a bathroom suitably equipped with towel racks.

I have resorted to hanging wet towels on hangers, which I then hang in a closet or from the lamp shade wires. Once in a while, if I can reach it, I’ll hang a towel over a shower rod.

But be forewarned: If you resort to this, check the top surface of the rod.

It can be quite dirty and you’ll have a dry towel with a black line across the middle.

I know I’m fortunate to deal with this aggravation; it means that I am traveling. But I’d also like to do my part in leaving a smaller footprint as I go.

HOTELS and motels need more towel racks to allow guests to dry their towels so they can be used for more than one day. This environmentally friendly move will reduce the use of detergents and save millions of gallons of water. Stock photo

When we remodeled our bathroom several years ago, I made sure that we installed ample towel racks so we can use our towels for several days.

Doing likewise in hotels will go a long way in reducing the amount of water

and detergent needed by the hotel/motel industry.

I searched long and hard to find statistics on how much detergent the hotel industry uses and came up with nothing.

There were, however, stats on just about everything

else, which I’ll save for another time.

Before I leave this gripe session, I want to give equal time to slippery showers and tubs. Nothing good about either of those, of course, so I’d like to implore hotel and motel designers to choose materials that are not slippery when wet.

Seems like common sense, but I too often find that taking a shower is risking a fall. In today’s litigious society, spending a few extra dollars in the name of safety seems like the smart thing to do — for all parties concerned.

Wouldn’t hurt to throw in safety bars in the tubs and showers, too.

Hotels/motels do get positive points for some things.

I’m seeing more and more wastebaskets for recyclables in hotel rooms, and kudos to those establishments that have replaced those tiny, personal bottles of soap, shampoo, conditioner and lotion with larger, multi-use bottles.

I know the tiny bottles are cute and fun to take home (I donate mine to a mission that provides services to the homeless), but all that plastic has deadly consequences for the environment.

Telling hotels that you like the environmentally friendly changes might help spread the trends.

Encinitas fisherman uses radar to track illegal fishing  Local contractor gathers poaching data in local MPAs

By Jordan P. Ingram

ENCINITAS — For lifelong fisherman Joe Cooper, using advanced radar equipment to help bust poachers off the San Diego County coast is just another day on the Pacific in his refurbished ’77 Boston Whaler.

Cooper, of Encinitas, grew up around his family’s commercial fishing boat but later grew disillusioned with the industry due to the increasingly stark consequences of overfishing: fewer and smaller fish.

“I kinda gave up on fishing because everything caught along the coast was just barely legal (size),” Cooper told The Coast News. “It just wasn’t fun anymore.”

So the fisherman turned marine conservationist to help revitalize fragile marine habitats while enhancing for-profit fishing.

Since 2015, Cooper has contracted with Wildcoast — an international nonprofit helping preserve California’s coastal wildlife and ecosystems — to collect data pertaining to illegal fishing within San Diego County’s marine protected areas, or MPAs, from South La Jolla to Moonlight Beach.

Marine protected areas Statewide, there are 124 protected areas covering approximately 852 square miles, or 16%, of coastal waters, according to the California Department of Fish and Wildlife.

In most of these protected areas, which were completely revamped under the state’s Marine Protection Act in 1999, fishing is either strictly prohibited or highly regulated.

For years, these areas have served as “recharge zones” to help enhance

marine biodiversity by stimulating the growth of kelp forests and myriad life aquatic — all of which leads to “spillover” of bigger, healthier fish into designated commercial fishing areas.

There are 11 marine protected areas in San Diego County that fall under three categories: State marine reserves and state marine conservation areas (take and no-take).

In North County, Swami’s State Marine Conservation Area encompasses Moonlight Beach and San Elijo and Cardiff state beaches.

The result of these conservation efforts? Better fishing.

According to a study, a 35% reduction in the total fishing area due to the creation of marine protected zones resulted in a 225% increase in total catch.

“Honestly, it makes it

more sustainable for everybody, and for me, it’s about the sustainability of fishing,” Cooper said. “I never thought I’d see fish get bigger — white seabass, Yellowtail. Fishermen aren’t just catching barely legal anymore; they have a chance to get trophy-size stuff. It’s kind of cool that it happened after these MPAs came around. No lobster traps when you’re surfing.

You go out to the tidepools, and you’re going to see stuff. More birds, more everything.”

However, environmental stewardship and safe zones don't eliminate the daily stream of poachers who seek to rob the local coastline of its valuable sea life.

According to Cooper, one lawless angler can damage marine habitat within a protected area, setting back healthy growth for years. And it happens more

often than law enforcement officials may like to admit.

“South La Jolla gets hammered hard with poaching,” Cooper said. “Encinitas get hit less but we have seen a few commercial operators here and they do much more harm than the accidental poaching recreational fisherman.”

Marine Monitor What most commercial and recreational operators don’t realize is Cooper’s 19-foot specialized skiff is equipped with a considerable advantage in the fight against the maritime plunder of fragile habitats: a cutting-edge surveillance system capable of pinpointing real-time illicit angling within a five-mile radius.

The Marine Monitor (M2) system, connected to a Furuno radar antenna secured atop Cooper’s boat and the Moonlight Beach lifeguard tower, utilizes

software to identify hot spots for poaching activity, record a vessel’s path history for playback and issue alerts based on activity within target areas.

Cooper’s boat-based radar setup, in partnership with a land-based radar and camera system, provide valuable data that helps enforcement officials efficiently deploy thinly-stretched assets.

Each data point is collected and stored within the M2 cloud, improving the system’s algorithm to better detect and anticipate poaching behavior.

“Our focus is data collection to help law enforcement efficiently use their limited resources by identifying what poaching behavior looks like on radar when it is most likely to occur and then sending an alert to enforcement officers when the radar algorithm triggers,” Cooper said.

When Cooper and the Wildcoast team locate a boat that appears to be engaged in illegal fishing, they collect data for the M2 system algorithm, forward the precise geographic location of the potential violator and report their findings to CalTIP (Californians Turn In Poachers and Polluters), a confidential phone line to report poaching violations.

Cooper invited The Coast News to observe a routine patrol from Mission Bay to Moonlight Beach last month. After removing several balloons from the water, a frequent occurrence in daily patrols, Cooper’s M2 radar picked up a suspicious boat within the South La Jolla State Marine Conservation Area.

Improve YOUR retirement Are you covered with NO monthly for any liabilities caused by your pet? mortgage payments

By Russell Kohn

Kohn Law Office Our client was severely bitten by his neighbor’s German Shepherd dog, resulting in the neighbor being liable for damages of $50,000 or more.

Woman gets 25 years to life for 2020 crash that killed 4

By City News Service

ESCONDIDO — A motorist who struck and killed four people in Escondido, including two children, was sentenced June 30 to 25 years to life in state prison.

Ashley Rene Williams, 30, pleaded guilty to charges of second-degree murder and gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated in connection with the fatality crash on May 5, 2020, on San Pasqual Valley Road.

Killed in the crash were Yovanny Felix, 10; Emmanuel Riva, 11; the boys’ grandmother, Carmela Camacho, 50; and Camacho’s boyfriend, Abel Valdez, 33.

Deputy District Attorney Laurie Hauf said the victims were on their nightly walk at the time. Cama-

cho ensured the boys got regular exercise amid the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, Hauf said.

While they were on their walk, Williams’ vehicle drifted onto the sidewalk at around 8:30 p.m., plowing into the victims and then into a tree.

Valdez and the older child died at the scene.

Medics took Camacho and Yovanny to Palomar Medical Center, where they were pronounced dead.

Williams was hospitalized, She was arrested about a month after the crash.

Hauf alleged that Williams used difluoroethane or DFE, a gas used in aerosol products, while driving, and had marijuana and methamphetamine in her system.

According to the prosecutor, Williams was driving on a suspended license at the time due to a DUI drug conviction she received less than six months prior to the fatal crash.

Williams did not make a statement at her sentencing hearing, but burst loudly into tears upon entering the courtroom.

Norma Espinoza, mother to both boys and daughter to Camacho, said, “I think one day I might forgive her, but I don’t think I’m ready to do that now. It still hurts.”

Espinoza said her sons “were my everything. They were my life.” She also described her mother as her “best friend,” to whom she could go to for guidance on any problems in her life.

Elvia Valdez, Abel Val-

dez’s sister, said through a Spanish-speaking interpreter that her brother was a “respectful and humble” man and that “there is nothing that can fill the emptiness that Abel has left.”

Brandi Meron Krepps, who served both as Emmanuel’s teacher and Williams’ teacher decades ago, said, “As sad as I feel for the decisions Ashley made, justice has to be served.”

In a statement released shortly after the sentencing, Escondido Interim Police Chief David Cramer said, “Although this resolution doesn’t erase the tragedy and loss of four members of our community, we hope that justice being served brings some degree of closure and peace to the families and our Escondido community.”

San Marcos Boys & Girls Club celebrates new space

By Laura Place

SAN MARCOS — What sat as an empty retail space in the Richmar neighborhood of San Marcos just a year ago has been transformed into a buzzing clubhouse offering daily recreation, education and support programs for dozens of local youth.

The new 6,000-squarefoot clubhouse on Autumn Drive, known as the Walter J. & Betty C. Zable Foundation Boys & Girls Club, is a branch of the Boys & Girls Club of San Marcos located less than half a mile from the main site on Positive Place that they have outgrown in recent years.

On June 28, club leaders, city officials and community members gathered to officially celebrate the opening of the brand-new space equipped with game rooms, a community connections center, learning and technology centers, an arts room and a demonstration kitchen.

“At the Boys & Girls Club of San Marcos, it’s our job to make sure that all young people can achieve their full potential. This new facility has endless possibilities for just that,” said Cathy Baur, president and CEO of Boys & Girls Club of San Marcos. “This building is designed from the front to the back to equip youth with the tools they need to build a great future.”

Construction on the clubhouse began last year after the city of San Marcos offered the Boys & Girls Club a rare opportunity —

a 30-year renewable lease at the cost of $1 per year and $1.2 million in funding via American Rescue Plan Act funds to make the space a reality.

Additional funds were raised through the Building Great Futures Capital Campaign, with the Walter J. and Betty C. Zable Foundation selected as the clubhouse namesake after providing a $200,000 gift and agreeing to match all donations up to $125,000 dollar for dollar.

“Many of you were here a year ago. We began the goal to raise $2 million to transform what was an empty concrete shell into this warm, inviting clubhouse,” Baur said. “I am so thankful to report that just 364 days later, we’re already serving [over] 125 kids every single day out of this clubhouse.”

Participating youth at the clubhouse include students from San Marcos Elementary School as well as residents of the nearby Westlake Villages affordable housing complex.

City officials recognized the clubhouse as a much-needed asset in the revitalized Richmar neighborhood, where over 500 youth live in affordable housing complexes and the average yearly income is around $30,000.

One of the main draws of the space is the EDCO games room making up the main area, where kids can enjoy air hockey, an interactive Exergames T-wall, an eight-person foosball table and Legos.

to $2.5 billion, according to Ikhrata.

Del Mar Councilwoman Terry Gaasterland said this project is of the highest priority and the money would be a significant turning point in the local debate over rail safety, particularly in Del Mar. The stability of the Del Mar bluffs has long been a source of concern for residents and area officials due to numerous failures over the years.

However, recent bluff collapses have renewed a sense of urgency amongst local, regional, state and federal officials to re-stabilize the bluffs and find a permanent solution for the second-busiest rail corridor in the country.

The tunneling option would double track the rail lines approximately 80 feet underground, creating two tunnels with the potential to extend the entry and exit points further inland to help mitigate noise.

Ikhrata said one of the

goals is to speed up the train by making the rail line as straight as possible, bypassing the Miramar Curve in Sorrento Valley to reduce travel time by up to 20 minutes.

While Gaasterland supports the tunneling plan, she prefers a second option which proposes to relocate the tracks along Interstate

5 with a tunnel underneath Del Mar Heights Road.

As required by the California Environmental Quality Act, the third option is a no-alternative analysis.

Gaasterland stressed the project must be fasttracked as the current situation threatens public safety and economic viability, noting the added benefits of

stabilizing the bluffs and restoring the Los Peñasquitos Lagoon.

“There are five alignments that have been under study,” Gaasterland said.

“Let’s get the subset of realistic realignments and get them packaged up for an environmental study. I’d like to see it ASAP. This can’t happen fast enough.”

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information.

If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.

NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of

this property, you may call 916-939-0772 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this internet website http:// www.qualityloan.com, using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-22-911185-CL. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the internet website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction.

If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call 916-939-0772, or visit this internet website http:// www.qualityloan.com, using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA22-911185-CL to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that

the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the sale is set aside for any reason, including if the Trustee is unable to convey title, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the monies paid to the Trustee.

This shall be the Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy. The purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Trustor, the Trustee, the Beneficiary, the Beneficiary’s Agent, or the Beneficiary’s Attorney.

If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may have been released of personal liability for this loan in which case this letter is intended to exercise the note holders right’s against the real property only.

sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is: $590,576.52 If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. The beneficiary under said Deed of Trust heretofore executed and delivered to the undersigned a written Declaration of Default and Demand for Sale, and a written Notice of Default and Election to Sell. The undersigned or its predecessor caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where the real property is located. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale.

If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (844) 477-7869 or visit this Internet Web site WWW. STOXPOSTING.COM, using the file number assigned to this case 099461-CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: Effective January 1, 2021, you may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction.

If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (855) 313-3319, or visit this internet website www. clearreconcorp.com, using the file number assigned to this case 099461-CA to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days

after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You dislike waiting for promises to be fulfilled and for commitments to be kept, but resist your headstrong tendency to push things along. Your patience will be rewarded.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Expect continuing opposition to your plans from die-hard detractors. However, your determination to see things through will carry the day. A Pisces has romantic ideas.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You might be too close to a troublesome workplace situation to deal with it successfully. Step away in order to get a better perspective. A solution soon becomes obvious.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) You might suspect that someone you trust has misled you on an important matter, but a more balanced view of things reveals a misunderstanding to be the culprit.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) The Big Cat’s animal magnetism has rarely been stronger. You can either just bask in all that admiration or use it to your advantage, especially in the workplace.

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Someone who previously balked at cooperating with you on a project suddenly has a change of heart. Accept both help and advice with grace.

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Some hazy issues still need to be cleared up before you can move on with your new plans. A friend from the past reaches out to re-establish old ties.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Continued positive fall-out follows that risky workplace decision you made some time ago. Your payoff will soon prove to be more substantial than you expected.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) A personal relationship continues to be affected by a recent unexpected turn of events. Things need to work themselves out without finger-pointing.

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) It’s a wonderful week for all you capricious Goats to kick up your heels with friends or family members in some well-earned fun and frivolity.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Caution is advised before making a financial commitment to someone you don’t really know. There are better ways to build friendships than with risky fiscal dealings.

PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Travel plans continue to be favored. A change of scenery brings new opportunities, both personally and professionally. Be open to the possibilities.

BORN THIS WEEK: You have a strong sense of loyalty that shows itself best in your relationships with family and friends. © 2022 King Features Synd., Inc.

POACHING

CONTINUED FROM 21

ordinator at Wildcoast, confirmed an individual was illegally fishing in a protected zone and reported the observation to CalTIP. Cooper documented the sighting in the M2 system, taking a screenshot of the boat’s precise geolocation with a timestamp.

Since Wildcoast has no authority to issue citations or detain poachers, it’s up to law enforcement to pursue the lead. But this type of real-time information can be a helpful first step to make arrests and write tickets.

Electra

In December 2020, Cooper was calibrating a radar system at Moonlight Beach in the Swami’s State Marine Conservation Area when he spotted several illegal lobster pots underneath the water’s surface. After reporting the trap line, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife officers responded to the call.

While examining the lobster pots, officers noticed a dozen passengers illegally fishing from Electra, a commercial passenger fishing vessel anchored in the northwest corner of Swami’s conservation zone.

The boat, owned by Helgren’s Sportfishing, is based out of Oceanside harbor.

While law enforcement never identified the owner of the illegal lobster pots, Joseph Helgren, owner of the Electra, was arrested,

pleaded guilty and received a $5,000 fine.

This particular case led to a couple of milestones.

The Electra case marked the first arrest directly attributed to the M2 radar system. And it’s the first case to be prosecuted under a 2019 state law that increased fines for commercial poaching violations within state marine protected areas.

Swami's One of the state’s largest marine conservation areas, Swami’s MPA covers nearly 13 square miles, stretching from Cottonwood Creek to the northern edge of Solana Beach and extending approximately three miles offshore.

Recreational take in this zone is limited to shore fishing (hook and line) and spearfishing pelagic, such as Yellowtail, Northern anchovy, jack mackerel, salmon, Pacific herring, sardine and tuna.

Cooper warns that illegal fishing in Swami’s MPA is a risky prospect and relatively easy to spot on radar.

For even the most undiscerning eye, any watercraft operating in the Swami’s protected zone sticks out like a cherry on a cream pie.

“Swami’s is great (for poaching detection) because it’s wide open,” Cooper said. “The radar is picking up only a couple of anomalies.”

Another concern for Wildcoast in Swami’s MPA is protecting a great many creatures in the intertidal

zone, the area between low and high tide lines. Specifically, visitors will forage tidepools to collect sea anemones, barnacles, crabs, octopus and lobster, which can seriously harm the local

popular fishing holidays and season openers.”

According to Kord, visitors fishing in closed areas are the most frequent violations. During the COVID-19 pandemic, state wildlife

ecosystem.

“Swami’s has a problem with the tidepooling,” Cooper said. “When the tide gets low, people go out to Swami’s reef and start flipping over rocks. They’ll be down there with buckets collecting stuff — octopus, abalone — despite the signs down there prohibiting it.”

Enforcement Eric Kord, assistant chief for marine enforcement with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, has been patrolling the San Diego coast for more than 24 years. The state agency responsible for protecting the state’s vast wildlife and natural habitats consists of approximately 480 sworn officers, 50 dedicated to marine enforcement.

“The biggest challenge for us is obviously being everywhere we can with the number of officers we have,” Kord said. “We try to schedule our patrols around

officers noticed a significant increase in violations amongst people trying to get out of the house and catch their seafood, often unknowingly venturing into marine protected areas.

Aside from meandering dayboats and unwitting anglers, some malefactors knowingly hit these sensitive areas.

“A smaller majority of the violators are people who intentionally target MPAs because they know marine life, depending on species, can be abundant,” Kord said. “These people are looking for some financial gain by poaching from these areas — something with a high dollar on the black market, such as lobster and abalone. It’s damaging in the fact a resource is being taken. The idea of an MPA is for the protected life there to spread out and repopulate the surrounding areas.”

coastal identity.

“Encinitas residents cherish their open space,” Cremona said. “Wide open views define our community. Parks, beaches and trails for people to be active and interact together, define our community. Preserving and funding open space should always be a priority. From our lagoons and ocean to the open spaces in Olivenhain, open space is what makes Encinitas unique. Jam packed commercial and residential development is wrong for Encinitas. Open space binds our community and strengthens our connections to each other.”

Bruce Ehlers, the city’s former planning chairman now running for council in District 4, agreed, referring to public surveys — including the latest master plan for parks, beaches and trails — that list open space as a top priority since the 1980s.

While Lyndes agrees development should focus on areas with the lowest impact, she doesn’t agree with connecting development and open land. According to Lyndes, it’s not a fair judgment and a highly political tool.

“I don’t make the connection between open space and development,” Lyndes said. “Because I think when we do that, we fail. Open space stands on its own.

of life in Encinitas.”

Ehlers said it’s hard not to pit developed space with under-developed space because “open space” is a broad term. To planners, the term is equivalent to “no structures.”

Ehlers recalled when the council turned down the Planning Commission’s unanimous recommendation to set R-30 zones to mandatory 50% inclusionary housing capacities — which would have a lower impact on land in the long term.

Instead, the council approved a 15% inclusionary housing requirement for projects within R-30 areas (residential zoning parcels with a density of 30 dwell-

ings units per hectare, or 2.47 acres).

“Fifteen percent means 85% has to be built at market rates,” Ehlers explained. “But if the 15% is the only portion that’s go-

per’s boat, state Fish and Wildlife have access to M2 land-based radars at Swami’s State Marine Conservation Area and Campus Point Marine Conservation Area in Santa Barbara.

While this surveillance equipment is very helpful in identifying poachers, Kord said it serves as supplemental evidence — an extra investigative layer when making an arrest or issuing a citation.

“We can never issue a citation based on radar observation alone,” Kord said.

"I know these radars can take photographs, but you still need officers on the water and along the shoreline to make an arrest and issue a citation. We need officers to board a vessel, document gear and identify suspects.”

In addition to the state Department of Fish and Wildlife, lifeguards with the cities of Encinitas and San Diego were recently trained to identify poaching activities and ticket perpetrators operating within state conservation areas.

Fines Unlike just a few years ago, poaching fines in California pack a wallop. For a first-time offender, penalties range from $100 to $1,000. For commercial violators, the stakes have gotten much higher, with fines starting at a minimum of $5,000 up to $40,000 (or more) and up to a year in county jail. Repeat offenders may also have their commercial fishing license suspended. “(Leucadia) used to be considered rural, and that’s why you wanted to live there,” Blobe told potential constituents at the debate.

“Leucadia is blowing up right now.”

Encinitas residents, as made clear through the creation and successful defense of Proposition A, are wary of losing open space to housing developments that don’t achieve state goals.

Some mayor-hopefuls, including Blobe, proposed ramping up affordable housing overlay requirements to lower the impact on the ground — by creating an adequate housing supply that meets state requirements — and possibly slow development.

The council candidates all agree that more can be done to conserve open spaces.

“I think the city is in a tough spot with the need to balance our requirement to provide adequate housing and our love for open space,” Redela said.

“I think finding a balance is possible and will work to find that solution should I be elected to the council.”

Lyndes and Ehlers are also a part of a group in the preliminary stages of a native plant ordinance that would ensure certain plants and areas can flourish.

The ordinance aims to “define, enact and apply the requirement that certain areas that are biologically sensitive and part of a development be reserved, protected and sustained for their life as natural open space,” Ehlers said.

Angela Kemsley, conservation director at Wildcoast, said recently increased penalties serve as an effective deterrent in the group’s fight to preserve delicate marine ecosystems in San Diego County.

“Before (the new law), commercial violators were getting fined the same as recreational boaters, so the max fine was $1,000,” said Kemsley. “But some of the (commercial) boats could make $10,000 per trip, so they would just take the hit and keep fishing illegally in the MPAs.” Kemsley said Wildcoast, funded by grants and donations, supports law enforcement agencies, such as the state’s Fish and Wildlife Department, to improve compliance within marine protected areas.

The nonprofit, which recently opened an office in Del Mar, provides information on potential poaching hotspots, historical data to help prosecute potential violators, trends in human behavior in coastal spaces to better inform future patrols, and conducting law enforcement training, including county prosecutors.

“It’s important that everyone — from government agencies to non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to the public — work together to conserve our blue spaces,” Kemsley said.

“We make sure to budget conservatively,” Norman said.

Todd Maddison, a parent of a recent El Camino graduate, was also pleased to see a balanced budget for the first time in five years.

Although Maddison said he welcomes the idea of new teaching positions in the district, he questioned if the district could sustain those positions in the long term. He also questioned the need for additional raises on top of the already scheduled annual raises for existing staff.

“Instead of giving out every dollar to existing employees… maybe we should think about projected declines in enrollment and do more of the things that parents want to have for their kids to help slow that decline,” Maddison said.
