PRJUSD Continues Discussion and Drafts Response to Grand Jury Report

By CAMILLE DeVAUL camille@pasoroblespress.com PASO ROBLES — The Paso Robles Joint Unified School District (PRJUSD) met at 8:30 a.m. this morning Sat. Jan. 30. to continue discussions regarding the Grand Jury Report “Paso Robles School District: A Cautionary Tale.”

At the previous Grand Jury meeting on Jan. 19, the board requested staff bring suggestions for potential law firms if voted to seek legal counsel in their response to the Grand Jury Report.

During today’s meeting, the board approved to seek legal counsel for their response with a 5-1 vote, with Board President Chris Arend voting no and Lance Gannon not present.

Arend voted not to seek legal counsel because he would rather have the funds go elsewhere in the district to benefit the students.

After some discussion regarding which firm to move forward with, the board voted 6-0 approval to seek counsel from Jeffrey Minnery and Linda Somers Smith from Adamski Moroski Madden Cumberland & Green LLP with a $5,000 budget cap.

Before discussing agenda item D.2. Grand Jury Report: Draft Response from the Board of Education, Trustee Tim Gerhart mentioned he had received many comments from people regarding new board members and their knowledge of events leading to the Grand Jury report.

Gerhart asked, “The questions remains, have you folks had the time to go into our history, pull out the different information items about these different items in the district office, and educated yourself well enough to be able to do this, or are you relying on rumor and hearsay?”

Newly elected board member Dorian Baker responded with, “I was sitting in the boardroom for the majority of this. I was very involved, so I feel I have the institutional knowledge to sit here today and be a part of this discussion.”

Gehart said Baker had been there only three years, to which Baker responded with, “not just three years. Many years.”

Board votes to amend the Templeton Recreation Foundation bylaws to allow it to function independently

By MELISSA MATTSON melissa@pasoroblespress.com

The coalition has become a support system for business owners in SLO County. It is a place where business owners can share their experiences, fears or get feedback from one another.

Daugherty shares that the coalition helps lower businesses’ anxiety and fear and feel more confident in opening their business if they want or have to do.

When asking Daugherty how he has kept Cider Creek Bakery afloat throughout the pandemic, he says he did it by simply staying open.

TEMPLETON — The Templeton Community Services District (TCSD) met on Tuesday, Feb. 2, for closed session, before going into regular public session, with nothing to report on during the closed session.

The first item on the agenda was a COVID-19 update, which General Manager Jeff Briltz addressed.

“Ruling out the regional stay at home order will allow us to offer some new sports programs,” stated Briltz, “though there are still many that cannot be offered under the purple tier.” He expressed the optimism of offering the spring softball program if the county moved into the red tier, while other high contact sports would have to hold until the orange tier.

The next agenda item was the discussion of the water buffer supply, which was presented by the District Engineer, Tina Mayer.

In 2016, a Water Supply Buffer Policy was established to ensure District water supply reliability and redundancy for current and future District residents and customers.

The policy provides a reliable process for evaluating water availability within the District’s water portfolio. The policy reserves a percentage of District’s water supply to provide a buffer against potential problems with existing water supply sources.

This year’s model update indicates that a 20 percent water supply buffer has been achieved at the current supply levels, freeing up 16.6AF (~25 water units) of unallocated water. The model also predicts that more water units will become available once the Nacimiento water is relocated, which involves a longer timeline and significant infrastructure to complete. Staff recommendation is to release the 25 available water units for sale.

Board Member Geoff English proposed that based on the available water and the buffer supply model, there could be up to 95 units released with some small revisions.

Board Members Pam Jardini and Wayne Peterson expressed interest

RESILIENCE

Cider Creek Bakery Perseveres Through the Pandemic Business owner Brad Daugherty forms a small business coalition due to California’s ever-changing guidelines

By CAMILLE DeVAUL camille@pasoroblespress.com PASO ROBLES — On Dec. 3, 2020, California went into a regional lockdown, which included San Luis Obispo County under the Southern California region.

This second lockdown forced retailers to operate at 20 percent capacity and restaurants to revert back to takeout only.

When Brad Daugherty, owner of Cider Creek Bakery in Paso Robles, learned about this second lockdown, he contemplated his next move.

“I laid in bed one night just going ‘I don’t know what I’m going to do.’ If I have to close my doors again, I’m going to lose this place.

To-go orders were just not enough to sustain [us],” said Daugherty.

Daugherty and 10-15 other business owners in North County went back and forth with each other on what to do until 3 a.m. that night. Daugherty suggested that the business owners hold a meeting to discuss their options.

What should they do?

When Daugherty met for that meeting, he expected 10-15 people to attend. When he showed up, to his surprise, there were 40 San Luis Obispo County business owners.

That was when the San Luis Obispo County Small Business Coalition (SLOCSBC) was formed.

Now, the coalition is made up of 130 businesses and counting.

Daugherty explains the coalition as, “An outlet for people to express what’s going on.

Talk about their experiences and gain knowledge so they can share their experience.” One example Daughtery gave was, “Say somebody had ABC come to them, that business owner shares their experience with everybody, that way everybody knows what to expect.”

Most people fear the unknown, especially when it comes to their business.

PRJUSD Cease-and-Desist Claims Defamation Against Paso Robles Daily News and KPRL

By HAYLEY MATTSON

W

e are not Paso Robles Daily News.

We are the registered newspaper serving the community of Paso Robles since 1889. We print a weekly newspaper, and we publish daily online.

We are The Paso Robles Press.

This need for clarification comes immediately following a cease-and-desist letter we received from Paso Robles Joint Unified Scholl District Superintendent Dr. Curt Dubost and Kim Holmes, his interim executive assistant.

The letter from the PRJUSD in reference to the article by Paso Robles Daily News stated: The reporting today relative to tomorrow’s Special Board Meeting to continue drafting the District and Board response to the recent Grand Jury Report contains factually inaccurate assertions that Deputy Superintendent Jennifer Gaviola is the target of a criminal investigation. The publicly available Grand Jury Report in no way implicates Deputy Superintendent Gaviola.

There is no pending investigation of her.

No allegations with respect to any matter addressed in the Grand Jury Report have been shown to implicate Deputy Superintendent Gaviola in any way. Both the Board President, Mr. Arend, and I have publicly stated that any person possessing evidence of any wrongdoing by any current employee should come forward now. To my knowledge, nothing has been received to date.

Because these untrue statements are defamatory in nature and harm the District and its employee, Deputy Super-

intendent Jennifer Gaviola, we request that you immediately correct your story and retract the statement.

Enclosure: Letter from Board President Christopher Arend The article that Dr. Dubost is referring to was a piece published online by Scott Brennan, Paso Robles Daily News, and KPRL Radio, both in no way affiliated with our publications.

The cease-and-desist letter above from Dr. Dubost was sent to other media outlets and distributed internally throughout the district. Upon receiving the letter, we immediately responded with clarification that we are NOT Paso Robles Daily News, nor are we affiliated with Scott Brennan or KPRL. PRJUSD Board President Chris Arend, Dr. Dubost, and Kim Holmes immediately acknowledged the error and stated it would be rectified. Holmes sent over a formal letter of apology and assured that all parties received the correction.

Letter of apology: Dear Ms. Mattson, I write to offer my humble apology for a grave error made today in preparing and transmitting a letter as part of my work with Paso Robles Jt. Unified School District. I am currently serving as an interim executive assistant to help the district through a period of turnover and vacancy in this key position.

The letter was prepared in response to both radio and print articles from KPRL Radio and Paso Robles Daily News (NOT Paso Robles Press). Their stories contained misinformation that we felt needed to be retracted and corrected immediately as the Board will be meeting in the morning regarding the recent

Grand Jury Report, the subject of their allegations.

The content of the letter was prepared

by Superintendent Dubost, and this is where his attention was focused in reading what I prepared. It was MY error to confuse the two media names when I was searching for contact information, as the day was coming to a close and I needed to get the letter out. I did not take the time to review background where I might have seen my error in time. None of these factors excuse my mistake.

I feel especially bad given the context of the letter and the current situation. As the school district felt the need to defend itself and its employees against perceived defamation, my error placed your newspaper in a position to also feel defamed – by misleading readers to think the “bad press” against the district came from you, when it most certainly did not.

Please accept my deepest and sincere apology. We have revised the letter and retransmitted it to our staff and to the correct recipients. Anyone listening to or reading about these current events should be assured that the Paso Robles Press never disparaged the district, nor did we intend to disparage the Press through this correspondence.

Sincerely, Kim Holmes Unfortunately, this is a common error that seems to repeat itself and leads to no clarification on the other side. Paso Robles Daily News is a website that started in 2012. The Brennan’s chose a name that obscured the copyrighted name of the existing newspaper of record and has proven to cause consumer confusion over the past eight years.

Early Saturday morning, we started

PRJUSD Board Finalizes Response to Grand Jury Report With a motion passed by the board with a 7-0 vote, the response will be submitted to the District Attorney

By CAMILLE DeVAUL PASO ROBLES — The Paso Robles Joint Unified School District met at 4:30 pm on Tuesday, Feb. 2, to continue their Jan. 19 meeting, drafting the board’s response to the Grand Jury Report.

Trustees continued to edit language and discuss President Chris Arend’s drafted response to the Grand Jury report.

Some notable points in the Grand Jury Report are related to the Aquatics Complex.

The Grand Jury Report’s Recommendation 13 says: Under the conditions that exist today, the district trustees and administration should determine if the Aquatic Complex is viable.

The board wrote the following response to Recommendation 13: “Timeframe, scope, parameters of study and discussion of R13: Input of community partners will be part of the update to be provided by May 17, 2021.

Explanation: The Aquatics complex is an ongoing issue. Unfortunately, the PRJUSD has only purchased the stainless steel components currently stored in two shipping containers on the Paso Robles High School site. The steel components are not subject to deterioration in the containers, according to information provided by the manufacturer. No vinyl components or adhesives, or other materials that would degrade in the coming year or two have been delivered. However, the current board recognizes that the current containers cannot remain in place as a permanent monument to a failed project. Therefore, the PRJUSD will continue to investigate whether the Aquatics Complex project is viable.”

Recommendation 14 reads as follows: The PRJUSD should consider the possibility of collaborating with the City of Paso Robles to use purchased equipment to upgrade current municipal swim facilities.

The board’s response to Recommendation 14 is below: “R14 will not be implemented because it is not warranted or reasonable.

Recommendation R14: PRJUSD has considered the possibility of collaborating with the City of Paso Robles to use the purchased equipment to upgrade current municipal swim facilities. It has been determined that the district stainless steel components are incompatible with the gunite construction of the current municipal swim facilities.”

Recommendation 15 reads: There should be a comprehensive audit and report made available to the public of 4A Foundation funds that were dedicated to the aquatic complex construction.

The board’s response to Recommendation 15 is below: “Explanation: The 4H Foundation has retained a local bookkeeper to conduct a review. The board expects the results of the review to be delivered to the board by May 11.”

After the board finished making their edits to their response, Trustee Dorian Baker made the following comment to the board and public: “Over the past two days, I want the board and the public to know that I made a request to review specific items that would be included in a personnel file, such

as performance evaluations and job resumes. I have been denied access to this information. I believe that I and the board cannot adequately respond to the Grand Jury’s report without reviewing this information. Being that I have not had an official legal opinion from the district attorney as of yet, I think that I should have access should be referred back to the grand jury and judge Duffy.

This is relevant because we have watered down some of Chris Arend’s original responses based on Mr. Gerhart’s contention that the previous board actively worked with Chris Williams, seeking better and accurate information from him as well as an improvement in his managerial style. I would expect these areas of concern to be reflected in his performance evaluations, and that was what I was wanting to verify. Having been denied such access to this information, which I believe the whole board should be reviewing, I was able to find the minutes from the Dec. 6 meeting, during which Chris Williams rendered his resignation. There president Joan Summers announced that in a closed session, after receiving his 9th consecutive, positive evaluation that met and exceeded standards, our superintendent initiated his resignation. So what that tells me, if there was push back, it didn’t make it to any performance evaluation.”

Baker’s point was throughout reviewing the Grand Jury Report, previous and current trustees have suggested board members did make complaints about previous Superintendent Chris Williams. There should be included with Williams’s personal files if those complaints were made.

Tim Gearhart said, “What he did with the academic development of our kids at that time was significant. I think most of them gave him credit for those and was focusing on not everything in a general way except for the financial section.”

Gearhart’s response refers to why there may not be many if any, complaints filed against Chris Williams.

Trustee Chris Bausch agreed with Baker that Williams documents should be available to the board.

The board motioned to approve their response to the Grand Jury Report. The motion passed unanimously with a 7-0 vote.

Nathan Williams, Dorian Baker, and Chris Arend will be on an editing committee to fine-tune grammar and the format of the board’s response to the Grand Jury Report.

The board motioned to submit the Grand Jury Report and the district’s response to the San Luis Obispo County District Attorney.

Trustee Nathan Williams said, “We are not looking for additional things. We are looking to have this addressed. We are not trying to find more names in here. We are addressing this report as it states.”

Bausch said, “[Some] items I thought may warrant additional investigation. Some of them could be evaluated as fraud. Some of them could be interpreted as violating trust laws - there’s a repercussion to those.

We are not here as judge and jury.”

The board hopes that sending the report and its response to the District Attorney will give the community and district closure regarding allegations of fraud involving previous Superintendent Chris Williams.

The motion to send the Grand Jury Report and the district’s response to the District Attorney passed with a 6-0 vote.

Gearhart recused himself, seeing it as a conflict of interest since he served on the board during the time the Grand Jury Report refers to.

The next meeting is scheduled for Feb. 9 at 4:00 pm.

receiving emails and comments online regarding this defamatory article that Paso Robles Daily News and KPRL wrote.

In response, we did reach out to local resident Jennifer Martinez and Jennifer Gaviola to clarify that we did not write the article.

Jennifer Gaviola’s response: Thank you for your email. I have always appreciated your coverage of our district, and as a community member, the fair journalism practices your paper adheres to.

I am sorry there was this confusion, and I never wanted to be the story.

Our students’ stories should always be our focus. I am saddened that this type of unfounded reporting has turned to this. The professional ramifications for this defamation are a great concern to me, but I will try to focus on the good and our mission to safely get kids back in school.

Thanks again, Jen Gaviola Jennifer Martinez corrected her social media post and “apologized for causing any problems for the Paso Robles Press Publication.”

Our mission is to “Make Communities Better Through Print and Communication.” We have a high level of responsibil-

ity for being the newspaper of record for the City of Paso Robles. Our pages will be read for years to come and held in the historical archives. We take immense pride in our journalistic efforts for our community. We employ local writers that live in and love our town.

Over this last year, we met the same challenges as all other small businesses did, and we are still here, still writing and still printing every week, the good news, the real news, your hometown news, thanks to our loyal subscribers and advertisers.

As the Publishers of the Paso Robles Press, we will continue to bring the community our very best with dedicated journalists and well-researched information following a journalistic code of ethics with every story.

We appreciate everyone for their support and thank the PRJUSD for making public statements regarding the confusion.

City Council Approves Joint Oversight Committees for Measures J-20 and Existing N-12 Council considers recommendation to raise City’s sewer rates starting in July

By CAMILLE DeVAUL PASO ROBLES — Paso Robles City Council discussed creating an oversight committee for Measure J-20, which passed in November 2020.

Measure J-20 is a local one-cent sales tax to maintain fire, police, and public safety services.

When the measure was proposed, it was promised that an oversight committee would be set in place to ensure the measure funds are appropriately used.

In November 2012, Measure N-12, a half-cent supplemental sales tax, was passed for road repair and maintenance. After the measure passed, a supplemental sales tax revenue expenditures oversight committee was created to report to the City Council and the public on the generated funds’ expenditure.

The staff recommended that the Council combine the proposed J-20 and existing N-12 oversight committees.

From agenda item 11: On Nov. 12, 2020, the Council directed staff to return to Council with draft bylaws that create single citizens’ oversight and advisory committee for both measures to ensure that the existing half-cent sales tax revenues, as well as J-20 revenues, are spent on the high-priority areas identified by the Council and to provide the needed feedback to the public.

As part of the motion, the Council included the following direction to staff. The Committee should: • Include up to 17 Members • Includes Representatives From Community Organizations • Incorporate members of the existing half-cent SST Oversight Committee • Include residents from each of the four Council districts • Provide liaisons from the City Council and Executive Managers in Police, Fire, and Public Works.

Current members of the N-12 oversight committee can apply for the new, combined committee.

Staff suggested that affiliated members be made up of education, general business, and service

providers. Members will serve in three-year staggered terms.

Council approved the proposed bylaws for the oversight committee, with a 5-0 vote except for a few changes.

There will be seven, rather than six, at-large members and four, instead of five, members nominated by local organizations.

Council also updated the current code of ethics to require a report be made to the Council after every regular meeting and a similar report made to the public.

Staff presented a recommendation to raise the City’s sewer rates.

The City last increased their wastewater rates on Jul. 1, 2016. Currently, Paso Robles has the lowest sewer rates on the Central Coast at $7.80 per unit.

Each single-family household uses on average six units.

Council seemed to favor Option A “Transition to 42 percent Fixed and 58 percent Volumetric Rates while maintaining $7.80/HCF usage rate.”

Option A would allow single-family homes to remain at the volumetric rate at the current level of $7.80 per HCF, and fixed monthly rates would phase-in.

The first-rate increase would occur on Jul. 1, at a monthly charge of $11.40, and increase by approximately $4 per year until 2025.

Councilman John Hamon said, “We’re not allowed to charge any more than it costs to run a system. So it’s not like the City is making a profit on this - we’re already behind the eightball here.”

Council motioned and approved, 5-0, for staff to bring back Option A to the Feb. 16 meeting for further review.

City Council will be holding a Special Meeting on Friday, Feb. 5, at 8 a.m. to discuss the City Manager position as a closed session item. Per the agenda, the Council expects to reconvene from the closed session between 4 and 4:30 p.m.

Another special meeting is scheduled for Friday, Feb. 12 at 8 a.m. to conduct City Manager second interviews.

The next regular meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, Feb. 16, at 6:30 p.m.

World Surf League Announces ‘We Are One Ocean’ Campaign

Capturing California’s Flowers: Natural History in the Digital Age

STAFF REPORT LOS ANGELES — The World Surf League (WSL) announced the We Are One Ocean campaign calling for the protection of 30 percent of our one ocean by 2030, or 30x30. The WSL encourages people around the world to join the global movement in support and sign the We Are One Ocean petition at weareoneocean.org.

We Are One Ocean is building support for the 30x30 biodiversity targets designed to protect nature and life on earth, with a specific call to fully and highly protect 30 percent of the global ocean.

Those who sign the petition will be part of a growing international community urging world leaders to adopt 30x30 at an upcoming United Nations Convention where these targets will be decided.

The campaign is inspired by WSL PURE, WSL’s non-profit, which has built a growing coalition of more than 60 Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) and corporations in support of We Are One Ocean, including the Natural Resources Defense Council, Conservation International, Surfrider Foundation, Sea Legacy, Lonely Whale, PADI, and World Sailing.

“Establishing fully and highly protected areas is an incredible way to build resiliency in our ocean. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to protect critical ocean habitat and biodiversity for generations to come,” said Reece Pacheco, SVP Ocean Responsibility, WSL. “This isn’t just about the ocean. It’s about people. By protecting the ocean and hitting 30x30, we guarantee a healthier future for all.”

The WSL is launching a content series sharing the unique stories of six people’s connection to the ocean and their personal motivation for signing the petition. The series will launch on Feb. 9 and feature prominent surfers, scientists, and environmentalists,

including reigning WSL Champion Italo Ferreira from Brazil.

“As a surfer, the ocean is my home and my place of work. It’s really important to me to do what I can to protect it,” said Ferreira.

“I hope that by sharing my story and my love for the ocean, it will inspire people to sign the petition.”

In celebration of We Are One Ocean, the WSL will be asking everyone to sign the petition and share a message of love for the ocean over the upcoming Valentine’s Day weekend. In addition, WSL will be hosting a series of virtual experiences designed to connect people with their love for the ocean and inspire them to take action to protect it. The experiences include a conversation with writer Siraad Dirshe and Leah Thomas, founder of Intersectional Environmentalist, as well as a charcoal wave drawing lesson with Championship Tour surfer Courtney Conlogue.

Shiseido has joined the WSL as an official partner of We Are One Ocean. Gillette Venus has also joined as an official partner of the campaign as part of their ongoing commitment to using fewer resources by 2030. In addition, the all-new Jeep 4xe hybrid electric has joined the WSL as an official partner of We Are One Ocean.

Annual Wine 4 Paws Weekend Fundraiser Coming in April

STAFF REPORT SAN LUIS OBISPO COUNTY — April is time once again to enjoy the Central Coast while helping animals in need during the Annual Wine 4 Paws Weekend benefiting Woods Humane Society.

This year, participants can choose from supporting the fundraiser by ordering from home or venturing out safely with a reservation and your mask.

Throughout the Pandemic, Woods Humane Society has been caring for homeless pets and finding them forever homes.

At the same time, many programs remain postponed until further notice, and essential fundraising events may not return again this year.

According to Woods, incoming funds for services have been reduced significantly, but expenses have not slowed down. That is why the 2021 Wine 4 Paws weekend is more crucial than ever.

Wine 4 Paws Weekend can help support local businesses (and get people out of the house or not) and enjoy some great Central Coast offerings; in return, the funds raised will help support Woods’ ongoing efforts.

The wineries are now open for outdoor

tastings by appointment. However, if you don’t feel comfortable going out, you can participate in Wine 4 Paws from afar, just like last year – order online, by phone, or by email. Have it shipped with one of the many shipping deals that will be offered, or swing by the tasting room and take advantage of curbside pickup.

Jeffry’s BBQ in Paso Robles will be offering up their delicious BBQ, whether you want to take it home or enjoy it on their heated outdoor patio.

Last year’s event went virtual and was a huge success, thanks to all the committed participants and longtime supporters. Wood’s was able to help the homeless animals during one of their most significant times of need and enjoy quality Central Coast offerings.

To join in on the event, visit wine4paws. com to see the more than 70 small businesses throughout SLO County that are donating a percentage of sales to Woods Humane Society on Apr. 10-11.

Visit wine4paws.com to learn more. The community support is critical. By participating in Wine 4 Paws, Woods wants to remind everyone that you are not only helping the animals, but you are also helping small businesses during this difficult time.

Woods Humane Society cares for over 3,000 cats and dogs each year at their San Luis Obispo and Atascadero facilities until they can be united with loving families. In November of 2018, they opened the first North County low-cost spay and neuter clinic in Atascadero. Any pet owner can utilize this clinic.

During the pandemic, Woods has continued to give the highest level of care, providing dogs and cats food, shelter, primary veterinary care, exercise, and enrichment. Many animals have been sent to foster care, and Woods continues to do appointment-based adoptions to fulfill their mission.

For Woods to continue to provide the same level of care to homeless companion animals and offer them second chances in 2021, the community’s help is needed.

Wine 4 Paws helps ensure that Woods can continue to offer our community animals the highest level of care.

LOCAL NEWS WEATHER DAMAGE

Section of Highway 1 Washes Out at Rat Creek on Big Sur Coast STAFF REPORT COUNTY — Debris flowed down the hillside above Rat Creek and Highway 1 on the Big Sur coast, which overwhelmed the drainage infrastructure, then flowed across the highway and eroded the road resulting in the complete loss of a segment of Highway 1.

Rat Creek is located at PM 30.2 and is two miles south of the Esalen Institute. It is about 1 mile south of the origin of the Dolan Fire in the Dolan Canyon area of Big Sur and within the burn scar area.

On Thursday Jan. 28, Caltrans crews, working from the north, performed a post rainstorm assessment of the roadway after discovering

debris flow across the highway at Rat Creek.

Before nightfall on Thursday, the lane on the coast side of the road had been completely washed out.

Late Thursday evening, Caltrans entered into a $5 million emergency contract with Papich Construction of San Luis Obispo County to assist with repair of the highway slide out.

On Friday Jan. 29, Caltrans assessment crews and emergency contractors arrived at daybreak to discover that both lanes of the highway had washed out.

At this stage the damage assessment team has not issued a report on the current findings and will continue to work on a full assessment.

The current closure of Highway 1 from Ragged

Point to Fuller’s Point just south of Deetjen’s Big Sur in remains in effect.

Businesses on Highway 1 from Carmel to Big Sur and south to the full closure remain open.

Barricades, cones, as well as message and directional signs are in place at both ends of the closure to alert motorists traveling in the area.

Caltrans reminds motorists to move over and slow down when driving through highway work zones.

For traffic updates on other state highways in Monterey and San Luis Obispo Counties, travelers may contact Caltrans District 5 Public Affairs at (805)549-3318 or can visit the District 5 website at dot.ca.gov/caltransnear-me/district-5

STORM UPDATE

Heavy Rainfall, Flash Flood Warnings Hit SLO County STAFF REPORT

Paso Robles Fire and Emergency Services were dispatched to rescue a person surrounded by water in the Salinas riverbed. Photo by Paso Robles Police Department.

NORTH COUNTY — A series of winter storms hit San Luis Obispo County last week, and the North County received up to 9-12 inches of rain. The heaviest winds and rainfall came on Tuesday night and continued through Wednesday and Thursday.

On Wednesday, Jan. 27, wind speeds near 60 mph were reported in San Luis Obispo County at times; high-winds peaked closer to 70 mph throughout the day.

On Thursday, Jan. 28, Atascadero Fire and Emergency Services reported that over 36 hours since the storm began, they responded to over 65 calls for service.

According to the Emergency Team, the strong winds have brought down trees and power lines, all

while the continuous rainfall has caused multiple floods in certain areas.

California Highway Patrol (CHP) reported that heavy rain and strong winds caused dangerous road conditions, power lines, and fallen trees, and other incidents affecting roadways.

A flash flood alert was issued as heavy rains continued to increase over the Central Coast as rain rates exceed 1” per hour.

In Paso Robles, N. River Road from Wellsona Road to Estrella Road closed due to flooding.

Flooding was reported at Highway 58 and Parkhill Road in Santa Margarita.

Paso Robles Fire and Emergency Services were dispatched to the area south of the Niblick bridge for a person surrounded by water in the Salinas riverbed

at approximately 1:55 p.m Thursday, Jan. 28.

Officials reported the first units arrived at the scene within approximately 3 minutes. The stranded person was located, and it was determined that the Paso Robles Fire and Emergency Services personnel using water rescue equipment could safely access and relocate the individual.

Two fire engines, one rescue, one squad, and two battalion chiefs from Paso Robles responded.

Paso Robles Police Department also responded and assisted in locating the person and providing traffic control. Additionally, San Luis Ambulance Service responded with a unit and remained on standby through the duration of the rescue.

The person denied any medical complaints and was relocated to a safe location.

ATASCADERO FIRE BATTALION

Atascadero Fire and Emergency Announce Appointment of Two Battalion Chief Officers STAFF REPORT ATASCADERO — Atascadero Fire and Emergency Services announced on Tuesday, Feb. 3, the recent appointment of two new Battalion Chief Officers.

Atascadero Fire Captain Matt Miranda was recently promoted to Fire Battalion Chief of Operations. The position was vacated last year when former Battalion Chief, Bill White, retired from the fire service. Captain Miranda had been serving as Interim Battalion Chief and was selected by Fire Chief Casey Bryson after an internal testing process.

Miranda began his fire service career as a reserve firefighter with Atascadero in 1999.

He was hired full-time with the department as a firefighter in 2001. Miranda later earned a Bachelor of Science in Occupation Studies from Cal State Long Beach while working full-time. After two years, Miranda was promoted to Fire Engineer then became a Fire Captain for the department in 2009. Miranda has been heavily

involved with a variety of programs during his time with Atascadero, perhaps most notably in department training. Miranda is a founding member of the North County Technical Rescue Team and also took a lead role in fundraising efforts to purchase and customize the Disaster Relief Trailer.

Miranda’s service to the Atascadero community also goes beyond the fire service. He has spent many years coaching youth sports, is very active in the Atascadero Bible Church, and volunteers his time with multiple city-sponsored events and community fundraisers.

According to Fire Chief Bryson, “Matt brings many years of local fire service experience to his new position and has proven to be an effective leader in our organization. I know he will do amazing things in his new role to continue to support and develop our organization.” Miranda is a long-time resident of Atascadero along with his wife, Megan, and their two children.

Atascadero Fire and Emergency

Services congratulates and welcomes a new face to the organization: Dave Van Son. He has been appointed as the new Fire Battalion Chief of Community Risk Reduction. The position has been vacant since the departure of Tom Peterson, who is now the Fire Chief of Templeton Fire and Emergency Services.

Van Son grew up in the Santa Barbara area and began his fire service pursuit after high school by attending the Allan Hancock College Fire Academy. His fire service career began in 1988 when he started three fire seasons with the Santa Barbara County “Hot Shot Crew.” He then joined the United States Air Force and served three years as a Firefighter/ Senior Airman. Van Son was then hired in 1995 as a Firefighter with the city of Great Falls in Montana. Van Son later went on to obtain his Bachelor’s Degree in Business and Human Resources from Columbia Southern University. Van Son left Great Falls Fire Rescue as a Battalion Chief after serving the department for 25 years.

DAVE VAN SON BATTALION CHIEF OF COMMUNITY RISK REDUCTION

MATT MIRANDA BATTALION CHIEF OF OPERATIONS

Van Son was selected as the best candidate from a nationwide recruitment and will take on fire marshal duties for Atascadero City. Additionally, Van Son will be the lead for the many programs that operate under Community Risk Reduction.

As Fire Chief Bryson announced the appointment, he stated, “We are eager to have Dave as our new Battalion Chief of

Community Risk Reduction. This role is incredibly important in our organization and for the residents of Atascadero. We look forward to the experience he brings to support and continue the growth of these vital programs within our community.”

Van Son and his wife, Jill, now reside in Atascadero with their 14-year-old twins.

They also have two older sons who live in Las Vegas and Chicago.

SAN LUIS OBISPO — For years, Cal Poly has been known to develop some of the best hitters on the West Coast. That development has slowed over the past few years.

“We’re should be much better than we have been the last four or five years offensively,” said Larry Lee as he enters his 19th season at the helm of the Mustangs. “A number of players have developed their hitting skills from last year, and, with the addition of several newcomers, we hope to put together a more stressful lineup.”

Catcher Myles Emmerson led the squad a year ago with his .317 average, but no other Mustang starter finished above .280. Emmerson is the only one of the five seniors on last year’s squad who is returning this season under the NCAA rule allowing every 2020 spring sport athlete another year of eligibility due to COVID-19.

Cal Poly also lost starting righthanded pitcher Taylor Dollard to the Major League Draft (Seattle Mariners, fifth round) and outfielders Bradlee Beesley (Cubs) and Elijah

Greene (Angels), both of whom signed free agent contracts last summer. Dollard one of just 12 players from California colleges selected in the 2020 draft.

However, the 2021 Mustang roster has been bolstered by the addition of three transfers from Boise State, which dropped its baseball program last summer, and one from Washington State, first baseman/designated hitter Matt Lopez.

Last year’s freshman class, which includes the likes of shortstop Brooks Lee, infielder Nick Marinconz and pitchers Drew Thorpe, Derek True, and Kyle Scott, is considered one of Lee’s strongest. The lineup will also feature veterans Cole Cabrera’s likes in center field, Taison Corio at second base, and Tate Samuelson, who will move from first base across the diamond to third base this year.

In addition to Thorpe, Scott, and True, the pitching staff will be led by returnees Andrew Alvarez and Bryan Woo in the starting rotation and Dylan Villalobos out of the bullpen.

All three Boise State transfers figure to play prominent roles with

the Mustangs this spring. Southpaw Travis Weston could be Cal Poly’s Saturday starter, Joe Yorke is penciled on the depth chart No. 1 at first base, and Reagan Doss is listed No. 1 in right field.

“I am excited about this year,” Lee said. “This year’s team has the best culture and work ethic that we’ve had in a number of years. We have some talent in a variety of areas, and overall, the players have worked hard to be competitive in all facets of the game.

“We have a few players who can play anywhere in the country,” Lee added, “and that creates a competitive and successful mindset that carries over to the other players within the program.

“When you have better players on the field, it affects all the other players.

It’s hard to quantitate what that brings to the team, but it’s what we need to get back to a winning culture.”

Only eight Mustangs were able to play summer ball, which was greatly curtailed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

In the Northwoods League, Brooks Lee finished seventh in the North-

woods League with his .345 batting average and was tied for fourth with 35 RBIs and tied for second in hits with 51 while playing for the Willmar Stingers.

Scott pitched well for the Stingers, Marinconz played at St. Cloud, Corio at Rochester, Samuelson with the Long Boarders of the San Diego Collegiate League, and Warrecker and True helped the Santa Barbara Foresters capture their eighth National Baseball Congress Semi-Pro World Series championship at Wichita, Kansas.

“Our players who were able to play summer ball benefitted greatly,” said Lee. “It gave them much-needed playing experience, whether it was getting at-bats or innings pitched.”

The Mustangs also have benefitted from dry weather and clearance from public health officials to practice the maximum number of days in the fall.

“We were one of the more fortunate colleges in California to have a very productive fall, probably the best fall in recent memory,” Lee said. “We had plenty of healthy players, and the position players got more reps than in any fall since I’ve been here.”

LOCAL NEWS COVID-19 UPDATE

SLO County Health Limits Second Doses of Vaccines

CDC updated their vaccine administration guidance for second doses STAFF REPORT

SAN LUIS OBISPO — San Luis Obispo County Public Health officials announced on Jan. 27 that due to limited supply of the COVID-19 vaccines, people in San Luis Obispo County who received or will receive their first dose might

need to wait up to six weeks to get a second dose, stating that this is within guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Local health officials say that at this time, second-dose appointments may be limited but that they do not expect it to last long as more doses are received each week.

People eligible for vaccination can expect to be notified of a second-dose appointment about one month after receiving their first dose.

“Do not be alarmed if you

cannot receive your second dose of vaccine on the exact day that you are eligible to,” advised Dr. Penny Borenstein, County Public Health Officer. “While the goal is to administer second doses close to the recommended interval, a few-weeks delay poses no health risks to recipients and will not require that they restart the vaccine series.”

According to public health officials, there are currently more people waiting for their second dose than the County has in its vaccine supply. As of Friday, Jan. 22,

the County Public Health Department had only received a total of 9,035-second doses and administered 10,539 first doses. More vaccine shipments are received each week.

On Thursday, Jan. 21, the CDC updated their vaccine administration guidance, indicating that second doses of vaccine may be administered up to six weeks after the first dose, but no earlier than the required waiting period (three weeks for Pfizer, four weeks for Moderna).

“Everyone will be able to get

their second dose of vaccine safely and in a timely manner following guidelines put forth by the CDC,” Dr. Borenstein said. “Limited vaccine supply from the State means that second-dose appointments may be delayed, but we are very carefully allocating vaccine so that recipients can get their second dose within that six-week period.”

For more information about COVID-19 vaccines in SLO County, visit RecoverSLO.org/ vaccine or call the recorded Public Health Information Line at (805)788-2903.

County Health Urges Residents to Celebrate the Super Bowl Safely Safe celebrations are key to preventing local surge in COVID-19 cases STAFF REPORT SAN LUIS OBISPO — San Luis Obispo County Health Officer Dr. Penny Borenstein reminds community members to celebrate the Super Bowl safely this year to prevent a subsequent surge in COVID-19 cases and slow the spread locally.

County officials urge residents to keep Super Bowl fun virtual this year and choose safer ways to celebrate, following recent recommendations issued by the CDC. On Jan. 8 the CDC released an updated report regarding “Considerations for Events and Gatherings.” It states that as some communities in the United States begin to plan and hold events and gatherings, the CDC offers a list of considerations for enhancing protection for individuals and communities and preventing the spread of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

They go on to say that event planners and officials can determine, in collaboration with state and local health officials, whether and how to implement these considerations, making adjustments to meet the unique needs and circumstances of the local community.

Because COVID-19 virus circulation

varies in communities, these considerations are meant to supplement—not replace— any state, local, territorial, or tribal health and safety laws, rules, and regulations with which gatherings must comply.

As advised throughout the pandemic, the risk of COVID-19 spreading at events and gatherings increases as follows: Lowest risk: Virtual-only activities, events, and gatherings.

More risk: Smaller outdoor and in-person gatherings in which individuals from different households remain spaced at least 6 feet apart, wear masks, do not share objects, and come from the same local area (e.g., community, town, city, or county).

Higher risk: Medium-sized in-person gatherings that are adapted to allow individuals to remain spaced at least 6 feet apart and with attendees coming from outside the local area.

Highest risk: Large in-person gatherings where it is difficult for individuals to remain spaced at least 6 feet apart and attendees travel from outside the local area.

“Celebrating the Super Bowl is a beloved tradition for many and, this year, we ask you to focus on celebrating safely without risking our community’s health. We simply can’t afford a surge in cases like we’ve seen after other holidays,” said Dr. Penny Borenstein, County Health Officer. “Fly your team’s flag, wear your game-day jersey, make your favorite nachos. But please avoid large gatherings

and do your part to keep SLO County safe and healthy.”

According to Dr. Borenstein, COVID19 infections in SLO County tend to surge two to three weeks following holidays and traditional celebrations. This was the case after Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year. Contact investigations show that family and friend gatherings continue to fuel the transmission of the virus both locally and nationwide.

This advice from county health officials and the CDC remains the same even after the vaccine has been in circulations since mid-December 2020.

In a recent report from the CDC on Jan. 25, when asked, “Do I need to wear a mask and avoid close contact with others if I have gotten two doses of the vaccine?”

The CDC’s answer was: “Yes. Not enough information is currently available to say if or when CDC will stop recommending that people wear masks and avoid close contact with others to help prevent the spread of the virus that causes COVID-19.

Experts need to understand more about the protection that COVID-19 vaccines provide in real-world conditions before making that decision. Other factors, including how many people get vaccinated and how the virus is spreading in communities, will also affect this decision.

We [CDC] also don’t yet know whether

getting a COVID-19 vaccine will prevent you from spreading the virus that causes COVID-19 to other people, even if you don’t get sick yourself. CDC will continue to update this page as we learn more.

While experts learn more about the protection that COVID-19 vaccines provide under real-life conditions, it will be important for everyone to continue using all the tools available to help stop this pandemic.”

One response to this report was, “if that is the case, and we don’t know enough about the effects of the vaccines, nor if it helps in contracting the virus, then why are people being urged to receive it if masks and social distancing are the only key in preventing the spread?”

The CDC has not responded as of yet.

County health officials ask that if you choose to gather, do so responsibly “like a BOSS,” by keeping social gatherings Brief, Outside, Small and Symptom-free, and to take precautions during the gathering. It is important to stay six feet away from others, frequently wash your hands and sanitize, avoid shared food and beverages, and wear a face covering.

“Let’s keep the end in sight and do everything we can do to get there without jeopardizing our loved ones’ health and our community’s path to reopening,” said Dr. Penny Borenstein, County Health Officer.

DISTANCE LEARNING

AUSD Closes Santa Rosa For Week Due To COVID-19 Outbreak

By CONNOR ALLEN ATASCADERO — The Atascadero Unified School District (AUSD) decided to move Santa Rosa Academic Academy (SRAA) Elementary School off-campus into distance learning this past week due to a COVID19 outbreak among staff at the site.

According to AUSD’s COVID19 Positive Notification Data page, which can be accessed on the school site, four staff members have tested positive.

ATASCADERO — Atascadero Police Chief Robert Masterson released an updated statement regarding the sign posted in a resident’s yard that suggested that law enforcement officers also served as members of the Klu Klux Klan on Jan. 14 read original story: atascaderonews. com/news/statement-from-apd-policechief-on-blue-by-day-white-by-nightsign/ The sign, which read “Blue by day; White by night,” was divided down the middle, splitting an image of a person in half. The sign’s left side displayed an illustration of a police officer next to the words’ Blue by day.’ The sign’s right side was a depiction of someone in the KKK hood with the words’ White by night’ printed next to it. Together, the two

images combined to make one person.

In his updated statement, Masterson states that the house occupants where the sign was posted have called into Atascadero Police Station and were unaware of the sign being posted and have since removed it.

The Chief also reinforced his feeling on creating a dialogue between the community and the police force by stating he is exploring how to do so in the future. In closing, Masterson apologized for any concern and potentially exposing the occupants by sharing the photo as it was sent.

Chief Masterson’s entire updated statement is posted below: “Thank you all for your comments and rest assured I take them all to heart. I wanted to let you know that we received a call from the occupants of the house. There is

TRAFFIC

a post from a friend of theirs in the thread as well. The occupants were unaware of the sign and have removed it. I would still like to have a meaningful conversation with the person who placed the sign and am hopeful.

I have read most, if not all of the comments on this thread and now more than ever, feel that a dialog between your police department, your police chief and the community members would be beneficial for us all. I will explore ways in which we can do this for the future and look forward to the conversation we can share.

It was never my intention to cause concern to the occupants, nor expose them in any manner, but I attached the photo the way it was sent to me by community members. I apologize if this gave concerns to any of you. Again, thank you for sharing your concerns and comments with me, the police department and the city.”

Highway 41 Roll-over Traffic Collision Ends in Fatality STAFF REPORT ATASCADERO — On Saturday, Jan. 30, at approximately 8:17 p.m., the Atascadero Police Department (APD) and Atascadero Fire and Emergency Services were dispatched to a reported vehicle roll-over traffic collision on Hwy 41 near Frog Hollow Drive involving a blue Ford Mustang.

Upon arrival, officers discovered a 59-year-old male, the sole occupant of the vehicle, had sustained fatal injuries from the collision, despite emergency lifesaving efforts made by passers-by and emergency personnel at the scene.

The identity of the victim is not being released at this time.

Officers determined the blue Mustang was driving westbound on

Hwy 41 at a high rate of speed when the driver lost control of the vehicle and struck an embankment and telephone pole. Investigators are looking into the possibility of a ‘street race’ with a black or dark-colored vehicle prior to the collision.

SHIRLEY ANN McNAMARA 1929 - 2021

S

hirley Ann McNamara, 91, of Atascadero, passed away peacefully at her home from complications due to a stroke on November 16, 2020, surrounded by her family.

She was born July 10, 1929, in Streator, Illinois, and became a very talented musician at an early age singing hymns on the street corner for a nickel when she was only four years old. Music became the love of her life from then on.

Shirley became an accomplished singer and pianist by taking piano and organ lessons at the University of Minnesota while attending Minnesota Bible College.

She toured the United States for two years, singing gospel music with five other Shirley’s called the “Shirley Sextet. “She cherished that time in her life until the day of her passing.

In 1957 she moved to Atascadero with her family. Shirley quickly became a well-known leader in the music industry of San Luis Obispo County, where she was a piano, organ, and vocal teacher, choir director, music arranger, and accompanist. Dedicated to the community, she had

been the pianist and organist for The Christian Church, Church of the Nazarene, The Family Church, and the Atascadero Bible Church.

For many years she was the accompanist for the Atascadero High School Choir, countless weddings, funerals, and community events, all usually for free, just for the love of music. She would say it was her “contribution.” She passed the gift of music on to her family, who lovingly called her Great One, Gramma Mac, or Gramma. There were so many people in the community, young and old, who were also taught the gift of music.

Shirley was an only child and left her legacy leaving behind her daughters Paula Bywater, Diana Sommers (Frank), Pamela Vert (Don), and sons William “Bill” McNamara lll (Nancy) and David McNamara (Shelly). 14 Grandchildren and their spouses and 27 Great-Grandchildren. She was predeceased by her parents, Clarence Stewart, Lucille Defenbaugh Stewart, stepmom Alice Stewart and son in law Ronald Bywater.

Due to Covid, no service has been planned at this time. She was laid to rest at Atascadero District Cemetery.

She loved God and prayed daily for each one of us. Those who had mentioned a need or if you mentioned someone who had a need, she would say, “My list is getting longer”! Shirley loved life, her family, and her friends. She was truly one of the reasons they were called “The Greatest Generation.” was born to Jesus and Ignacia Blanco in Gilroy, Ca. Richard grew up in Gilroy with his ten brothers and sisters. He worked for Gentry Company as a dehydrator. He loved hanging out with his friends at Steinmetz Cigar Shop/pool Hall, fishing, and 49er games.

At the age of 21, he married Gloria Arebalo they had five children together. After 13 years of marriage, they went their separate ways. Later, Rich-

ulian Alexander Morinini entered into eternal life on Friday, January 22, 2021, in Paso Robles, California. He and his wife, Sharon, have resided in their lovely neighborhood home in Paso Robles for the last 12 years.

He was born in King City, California, on August 14, 1937, to Aquilino and Mariann “Annie” Morinini. Julian grew up on the family ranch in Greenfield, California. He attended Greenfield Elementary School and King City High School, where he was very popular and head cheerleader for the Mustangs. Alongside his siblings, he assisted with ranch work and worked parttime during his teens at Tiny’s Market in Greenfield. Following high school graduation, he enlisted and served in the Navy.

After he served in the military, Julian returned to Tiny’s Market and enrolled in butchering school in Toledo, Ohio, to expand his butchering skills. He later purchased Azcona’s Market in Greenfield and became

known for his father’s version of “Morinini Swiss Sausage,” a tradition carried on by his brother, Leno.

Julian will be remembered for being one of the best bartenders in Central California through his ownership of Nina’s Cantina in King City, California, and the Buckhorn Saloon in North Fork, California, where his wife Sharon and family lived for many years prior to returning to South Monterey County. Many would-be amazed at how quickly he would remember their drinks and the generous spirit of the conversation.

Among his many talents, he was an amazing cook. His love for his family’s Swiss heritage showed through in his skills in making polenta and stew or his renowned gnocchi and cioppino always accompanied with his rendition of unique pie creations and, more recently, his rum cakes, which he willingly and generously provided for family and friends. The family aspires to replicate his recipes and use his famous motto’ cooking is all in the imagination’. It would be hard to find anything Julian prepared that was not delicious, imaginative, and made with love.

Julian was a compassionate and kind individual who was gifted with a generous heart, as shown by his decision to help others as an organ donor. He was a voracious reader who loved mysteries, biographies, and nonfiction books. Julian also loved country music, especially

Willie Nelson, and enjoyed watching NBA games rooting for his favorite team, the Lakers.

He was a great storyteller, showing a sharp wit while sharing a lifetime of memories and experiences.

His sister recently found a quote that encapsulates Julian: “When I stand before God at the end of my life - I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say ‘I used everything you gave me.’”

Julian is survived by his wife Sharon; daughters Julianne (Ken), Melanie, Lisa (Kreg), Lori (Larry), and Tami. His grandchildren J.T (Alexandria), Aleck (Kiley), Nick, Carson, Cameron, Kyler, Ainsley, Colt, Jesse, and Riker; and his great-grandchildren Maci, Tinley, Isla, and Grayson. He is also survived by his brothers Arthur and Leno (Linda), and sister, Esther. He leaves behind many nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends who knew and loved him. He will be greatly missed but not forgotten by those left behind.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Aquilino and Annie; his brother-in-law, Barney; his son-in-law, Kenny; and his nephew, Tim. Donations can be made to: • Wounded Warriors WCO Project at HonorWarriors.org • Mission San Antonio de Padua at preservemissionsanantonio.org.

Due to the current pandemic situation, memorial plans are pending.

ard moved to San Luis Obispo County, where his children were and other family members. He worked for a car washing service and a car dealership. He met his long time companion Karen Perry; they spent time at yard sales, crabbing at Pismo Pier, fishing.

Richard started going to DaVita Dialysis Center for treatments. He visited his children and grandchildren as often as he could. Richard and Karen ended their relationship, and

he stayed a short time with his daughter Marcella before going to Mountain View Health Center and French Hospital, where he passed away.

Richard is survived by his children Richard (Dianna) Raymond, Marcella Galvez (Charles Clark), Marlene Cisneros (Tomas) Ruben(Yvonne), his former wife Gloria Blanco, and 21 grandchildren, 12 great-grandchildren, his siblings Mercy Molina(Damacio) Yolanda

Betancourt (Ramon) Daniel Blanco, Rosemarie Berry, Mary Seidor (Sam). His two close nieces, Darla Blanco and Anna Bolayog, many other nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents, brothers Tony Adame, Jesus, and Lawrence Blanco. His sister’s Margarita Cruz and Martha Ponce.

‘Irony: Newsom Breaks Up the Bay Area Clique’

Francisco congresswoman.

Before Newsom became governor, ex-Oakland Mayor Jerry Brown had just spent two terms in the state’s top office, while ex-Marin County Supervisor Barbara Boxer spent 24 years as a California senator, retiring in 2016 and giving way to Harris.

Newsom broke up this ensemble when THOMAS ELIAS he chose Padilla, California’s secretary of COMMENTARY state for six years and before that a state assemblyman from the San Fernando lex Padilla’s taking the oath of Valley area of Los Angeles.

Black females. Instead, Newsom went with personal loyalty in choosing Padilla, one of his earliest and most consistent backers, while he spent more than eight years seeking to become governor. There was also the fact that Padilla, a Latino and more moderate than Lee, might be a stronger candidate for election on his own next year.

For sure, Padilla will face Democratic competition in that upcoming primary, possibly from the likes of Burbank Congressman Adam Schiff, who spearheaded the impeachments of Donald Trump; Silicon Valley Rep. Ro Khanna, a darling of the Democratic left; Lee, current San Francisco Mayor London Breed or Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti, a perpetual short-lister for other big jobs who never seems to land them.

Orange County Congresswoman Katie Porter, Lt. Gov. Eleni Kounalakis, and Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf also are possible entrants.

Schiff, a hero to many Democrats, and Padilla are by far the best known in that group, making Khanna, Breed, Lee, and Schaaf longshots in any contest. This Senate seat appears likely to stay with a non-Bay Area resident.

Many of these folks could also be entrants in any race for Feinstein’s Senate spot, who will be 91 when her term is up.

Paso Robles School Board, Let’s Move Forward Dear Editor,

The Paso Robles School Board is demonstrating how disconnected they are from the immediate needs of the district they serve. Rather than focusing on ways to get students back to school or bringing unity to racial divisions, the elected trustees have been using their time to go through details of what led to the district’s financial issues during Chris Williams’ time as Superintendent. The SLO County Grand Jury has thoroughly reviewed the information, found several errors and failures by the district, and made recommendations.

At a time to rebuild, to adhere to the recommendations of the grand jury, the board has decided to use more energy attempting to dig up criminal evidence on and attack respected individuals of our community. One of those people is Deputy Superintendent of PRJUSD, Jennifer Gaviola.

Young female athletes have been losing athletic competitions for several years due to the politically mandated acceptance of former and still genetic males into women’s competition, locker rooms, and restrooms.

Studies have shown that there are currently over 300 male high school athletes of average ability who can best women’s world records in the Olympic 400 meter race along with other competitions. Women are losing scholarships, awards, and recognition to biological males whose bodies developed through adolescence as males, later to compete as females. It’s not fair and not right, but Biden validated this via executive order, also declaring he would sign the Equality Act. The legislation not only guarantees transgender rights as a protected category but also ends freedom of conscience.

Board members, your platform should be aligned with PRJUSD’s Guiding Principles. It is not to intimidate or bully individuals who stand up to you or think differently.

Focus on the real issues. Listen to your students, teachers, and residents. Work with us to come together- all of us- by embracing differences rather than fearing them.

If she serves out the term, several of them would no doubt run to succeed her in 2024, even though Feinstein improbably set up a reelection committee the other day.

What’s evident now is that any of the prominent Southern California possibilities would likely make a stronger statewide candidate next year or in 2024 than any Bay Area figure.

That’s a major change for the geographic tilt in California politics, one that could become even more significant if the current recall drive aiming to oust Newsom a year before his term is up should proceed to an election and succeed.

The last major recall, against ex-Gov. Gray Davis gave California its only non-Democrat, non-Bay Area occupant of a top office since 2002, as movie muscleman Arnold Schwarzenegger catapulted into office by that route.

Two San Diego area figures, former Mayor Kevin Faulconer and businessman John Cox, a Donald Trump loyalist beaten by Newsom in 2018, figure to be on that ballot if it arrives and either could change the state’s politics even more than Newsom and Padilla already have.

the Poor will be forced to provide contraceptives and abortion coverage, although they’ve won their case in court, and such mandates are a religious abomination to the faithful. Pastors who speak out against radical gay agendas as unscriptural will see their churches lose tax-exempt status.

Some will say that’s ok, but the power to tax is the power to destroy. We are becoming a nation of intolerance and mandated ideological conformity.

The event of January 6 (the storming of the Capitol by angry rioters) is being used as an excuse to promote harsh internal security laws by Congress. The Capitol riot was inexcusable, but dismissing the anger of working-class America while holding them in disdain only assists those who would destroy our nation. Overlooking the economic wasteland created in large swaths of the country by corporate outsourcing and shortsighted policies designed to assuage environmental campaign donors is an equal outrage and one guaranteed to feed political rage, as is vindictive persecution and “canceling” of political opponents. Failure to unify will undermine and weaken the Republic to the delight of the world’s tyrants.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

incredible work ethic and integrity. She literally does two fulltime jobs for the district, doing all with expertise and creativity.

Jennifer is the lead in all of the district’s return to school documents, preparation, and implementation of agreements with staff and county health. She runs the personnel department and is the lead negotiator with both unions. She remains very active in her support of the high school and still finds time to recognize a colleague, applaud staff ... and most importantly, does anything possible to support a kid. Any kid, Any grade. Any color. Any level of ability.

Instead of focusing on a conspiracy theory, board members should be following Jennifer’s lead to get things done within the school district. Why has the board recently thrown her name out there? Jennifer had recently spoken as a community member at a school board meeting requesting three things from the trustees: that they “lead with kindness, integrity, and be future-focused”. Shortly thereafter, she was accused by the board.

Trustees, is this the message

MLK Scholarship BBQ Canceled But Donations Still Critical Dear Editor,

PUBLISHER’S CORNER

Here comes Super Bowl Sunday, and for many here on the Central Coast, that means it’s time for the Martin Luther King Jr. Chicken Barbecue. Usually...

But nothing is “usual” this year.

A local tradition for many years, the annual barbecue raises money for The Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. High School Memorial Scholarship Fund. Since 1968, the organization has been awarding scholarships to college-bound teens graduating from local high schools. But because of health and safety precautions brought about by COVID-19, the annual chicken barbecue won’t be happening this year.

Yet, your support of the scholarship fund has never been more important.

Amid the pandemic, special challenges face students who are graduating from high school and setting their sights on college.

Freshman college enrollment is down 15 percent nationwide, primarily because of financial hardships brought about by COVID19, according to figures from the

H

ow about that rain last week? I called it a “twig and leaf cleansing.” Now it’s “pick up the rake time” and “watch the weeds pop up time.”

Oh my, the seasonal cycles never change.

But who would want to live in a concrete jungle where those cycles don’t exist?

Seriously, we live in an oak forest, and we watch our trees very closely when we have so much rain. We dodged the bullet this past storm and didn’t have any trees fall. That was a good thing!

As I write, it’s Feb. 1 and I’m another year older today. This is the first year in my long life that I find myself wearing a mask. The only good thing about the mask is that it hides my wrinkles, and I save money on lipstick since no one ever sees my lips!

So much for a little levity. Now it’s time to continue with the menu for the Superbowl this Sunday (Feb. 7). Go Chiefs!

This first recipe has only three ingredients and is a great recipe for veggies or chips. It should only take about 3 minutes to prepare, thus the name.

Three-Minute Tomato Green Chili Dip Ingredients: • 2 packages (8 ounces each) cream cheese, softened • 1 can (14 ½ ounces) Mexican-Style stewed tomatoes, drained well • 1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies, drained, or 2 to 4 fresh jalapeňo peppers, seeded and finely chopped

Directions: Combine cream cheese and tomatoes in a food processor; blend until smooth.

Add chilies; blend well. Serve with fresh veggies or tortilla chips. Makes about 4 cups.

Use diced green onion or chopped cilantro for garnish on top of the dip.

21 Seasoning Salute; mix well. Season with freshly ground black pepper if using.

Refrigerate, covered, for several hours.

Serve as a dip for vegetables or chicken nuggets. Makes 1 cup.

Jazzy Spaghetti Sauce Dip Ingredients: • 1 jar (26 ounces) spaghetti sauce Herb Dip • ½ cup chopped green bell pepper Ingredients: • ¼ cup finely chopped onion • ½ cup mayonnaise • 1 package (8 ounces) pepperoni, thinly • ¼ cup sour cream sliced • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice • 1 package (3 ounces) cream cheese, cut • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley into chunks • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh tarra- • Grated Parmesan cheese gon or 1 teaspoon dried • Breadsticks or garlic chips for dipping • 1 tablespoon snipped fresh chives or 1 Directions: teaspoon dried In a medium saucepan, combine • 1 clove garlic, minced spaghetti sauce, bell pepper, onion, • 1 green onion chopped (green and pepperoni, and cream cheese. Cook over white parts) low heat until cream cheese is melted • 2 tablespoons red sweet pepper strips, and the mixture is hot. Pour hot dip into diced (I use marinated strips that come a fondue pot or casserole dish. Sprinkle in a jar) with Parmesan cheese. Serve warm dip • 1 teaspoon Trader Joe’s 21 Seasoning with warm breadsticks or garlic chips.

Salute Makes 4 cups.

• Freshly ground black pepper (optional) As my husband says, don’t forget the Directions: Onion Dip! Cheers!!

Did You Know:

History of the Atascadero Printery

By Connor Allen

T

Photos courtesy of Rick Evans and the Printery Foundation

here are many old, statuesque buildings throughout Atascadero but perhaps none as impressive and mysterious as the Printery Building located on Olmeda Avenue. It now sits quiet and abandoned since the earthquake of 2003 shook its foundation and jeopardized the integrity of the structure. Yet still, in its silence, the building has many secrets to tell as it was a hub for Atascadero for nearly half a century.

Atascadero’s founder, E.G. Lewis, built several large civic buildings during the City’s formation, but the first finished was the Printery Building in 1915. Lewis had acquired a small fortune while living in University City, Missouri, through his Women’s National Weekly publication. In total, the brick structure that we see today cost only 34,000 dollars to build, not including equipment. However, once it was fully furnished and up and running, the entire printing facility came with a price tag of $250,000, according to the Atascadero Historical Society’s records.

The Printery Building was designed by the San Francisco based firm Bliss and Faville and boasted 19,354 square feet.

At its completion, the Printery was one of the most beautiful buildings west of Mississippi.

Not happy with merely a beautiful structure, Lewis brought in renowned artist Ralph Holmes, formerly of the Chicago Art Institute, to paint large, vibrant murals that would captivate each person that entered through the front doors.

Marguerite A. Travis is quoted in L.W. Allan’s Book “Atascadero the Vision of One -- the Work of Many” saying, “The walls of the entrance hall and giant staircase were beautifully decorated with elaborate murals painted from local scenery by Ralph Holmes, noted artist of Chicago who came to make his home in Atascadero.”

Luckily, some small portions of the murals have been saved and relocated for safekeeping. Today, only specs of paint can be found as you enter the building. The illustrations have been worn off over the years and become victim to graffiti by vagabonds and skaters looking for a place out of sight and supervision.

Not only was the building itself pristine, but so was the machinery inside. Lewis installed the first and largest rotogravure press complex on the west coast, and the first Atascadero News was published on January 2, 1916. In its prime, between the years of 1916 and 1920, the Printery employed up to 125 people and had publications on newsstands from California to Time Square in New York.

At its printing peak, the Atascadero News wasn’t the only publication being printed in Atascadero. For two years, the Sunday rotogravure supplement to the San Francisco Chronicle was produced at the Printery as was a rotogravure magazine for the Los Angeles Sunday Times.

Eventually, the reign of the mighty Printery came to an end with massive layoffs in 1924. The next year the Atascadero News was sold to Ted Bishop when Lewis went into involuntary receivership by a group of creditors.

In 1928 the Printery building was sold to Frank G. Moran of Seattle, who turned it into Moran Junior College. The Printery took on a magical transformation inside, adding a full gymnasium, indoor heated swimming pool, classrooms, and dorms for 28 as it became a prep school for boys.

According to Allan’s text, it cost $1,400 to attend school for the year. The most renowned of the graduates was American artist Rober Burns Motherwell, who is now considered to be one of the founders of the abstract expressionist movement.

Eventually, Moran Junior College dissolved into the Miramonte School and Junior College in 1935.

Several years after the two schools folded, the Printery building was leased by a federal program called the National Youth Administration. The new governmental program was designed for “at-risk” youth. The boys would be provided with some money each week in exchange for community service and their education.

In 1941, the NYA brought in one assistant athletic director by the name of Jackie Robinson. Yes, that Jackie Robinson. Just barely out of college at UCLA, Robinson took a job in Atascadero and stayed in the Printery for a short time.

While Robinson was only here briefly, it was long enough for tales of his athletic feats to make their way through the generations. There are legends about Robinson crushing home runs into the Atascadero Creek and leading the staff team to a 14th consecutive victory of Camp Roberts.

The Printery was retired again before it was brought back during the war when it was leased to the U.S. Army to serve as a barracks for men assigned to Sherwood Air Field in Paso Robles.

In May of 1950, the once palatial Printery Building was sold to a group of Masons for $25,000 and took on many different forms over the next 50 years, including Karate studios, District school offices, and Sheriff substations.

Sixty-seven years later, on May 15, 2017, the Atascadero Printery Foundation won the building for 300,000 dollars at a tax auction. Since that time, the Printery Foundation has worked tirelessly to bring back one of Atascadero’s iconic buildings and restore it to its former glory.

The Foundation is currently working to raise money to restore and revitalize the building, starting with a performing arts center where the former basketball court now sits.

comment to address agenda item D.2.

Peterson said, “I’m here to tell you that many board members, perhaps all at one point, spoke up at meetings and asked the right questions both in open and closed doors about several of these decisions. The board member who thinks he was acting alone knows he wasn’t. Look at the meeting minutes, the binders, the budgets full of notes, and the record. There was push back.

I know because I was there -- ultimately, the board and the district were misled in several areas. Specifically in regards to the projected budget and enrollment.”

The board moved forward to modify a drafted response to the Grand Jury Report written by Board President Arend.

Arend’s draft was initially presented to the board at the Jan. 19 meeting and was determined to be used as a starting point to begin drafting their response to the Grand Jury Report.

Trustees went through the draft, evaluated to make edits regarding language, and refined details of the document.

The special meeting was slated to be adjourned at 12:30 p.m.

At F4 in the response document, the board motioned to continue the meeting at another date due to the time.

The next special meeting was held Tuesday, Feb. 2 at 4:30 p.m. to continue drafting the district’s response to the Grand Jury Report and discuss the next steps.

At the end of the meeting, before adjournment, Superintendent Curt Dubost gave the following statement: “I need to make a public apology. Last night my office made an error and sent a communication that was intended to go to Paso Robles Daily News. There was a miscommunication between myself and my assistant over the word Press, and she, in error, sent it to the Paso Press. It was quickly corrected. A formal letter of apology has been sent, but I wanted to publicly acknowledge that error and apologize to the Paso Robles Press.”

Dubost was referring to a cease-and-desist letter claiming defamation against KPRL and Paso Robles Daily News, which reported several inaccuracies.

The letter was mistakenly sent to Paso Robles Press rather than Paso Robles Daily News.

“By staying open -- I played their game in the beginning. March, April, and May were rough, rough months,” said Daugherty.

Cider Creek Bakery had a record year of sales for 2019 and, based on sales for January and February 2020, was on track for being another record-breaking year for sales.

During California’s first lockdown, issued on Mar. 19, 2020, Daugherty had to lay off eight employees, and the bakery’s sales were down 50 percent.

In April of 2020, Daugherty received his Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan and used it to bring back most of his staff.

When the PPP money ran out, Daugherty knew he had to stay open to keep his business. Since May, Daugherty has remained open with a full staff of 16 employees.

“I’ve kept my doors open. I’ve put myself on every county watchlist. There hasn’t been an enforcement agency that hasn’t had contact with me,” Daugherty said.

Cider Creek Bakery has remained open with social distancing, masks, and sanitization procedures.

December 2020 sales ended up beating the bakery’s 2019 record year sales.

Now for January, the bakery is operating at 80 percent sales.

When asked what he thinks the rest of the year will look like with COVID regulations and sales, Daugherty says he’s not sure what could happen. But he does know what he will be doing.

“I can tell you what I’m not going to change here -- I’m not going to change how I’m operating. I can’t control what the public does. Whether they come through my doors or not but they will be open -- They literally will have to force me to close this time,” says Daugherty.

Daugherty explained that businesses like his that don’t require a liquor license have been left alone for the most part with no significant threats.

So why does Daugherty continue to push back?

“This fight is for every business that is being crushed by our government, especially those that have recently been targeted by the ABC and threatened to have their liquor licenses suspended,” says Daugherty.

Daugherty says he and the SLOCSBC are very close to filing a lawsuit against the California Governor or the State of California.

The SLOCSBC is essentially fighting for businesses’ Right to Earn a Living Act, which states, “The right of individuals to pursue a chosen profession, free from arbitrary or excessive government

interference, is a fundamental civil right.”

Anyone interested in joining the coalition can contact Brad Daugherty at brad@protectpaso.org.

Publishers Note: The right to earn a living is the shared sentiment of each of these business owners and why they joined SLOCSBC. Throughout the pandemic, most have felt as if they did not have an advocate that could help them navigate through these unprecedented times.

As a community, it is important to remember that each of these business owners are a part of what makes our community and economy thrive. They are your friends,

being in business.

“Going into the restaurant business, we already knew that sixty percent of restaurants don’t make it past the first year and 80 percent go out of business within five years--so this is a huge milestone for us,” said restaurant owner Joel Casillas in the press release announcing the competition.

On Jan. 15, 2016, Órale opened their doors for the first time. Five years later, it was on the same day that they announced their big giveaway, which flooded their social media pages with hungry SLO County residents salivating at the idea. In just a week, they accumulated over 4,000 entries.

Those interested could enter several different ways starting with liking their post announcing the giveaway, following the company social media pages, commenting and tagging friends, and of course, sharing the post, which was worth ten additional entries.

“This last year was the toughest yet due to the pandemic and shutdowns, but our customers and community have continued to support us, and we wouldn’t be here today without them.” Co-owner Kristin Casillas said. “This is our way of saying thank you for making us a part of your lives these past five years.”

TCSD CONTINUED FROM A1

in seeing this idea written up for a future discussion.

The Board came to an agreement that for now, the 25 units available would be released, and a future discussion would be held on how the staff does calculations of the gallons per day and whether that calculation needs to be adjusted.

The next discussion was on amending the Templeton Recreation Foundation (TRF) bylaws to make it more independent from the Templeton CSD. “This is a request by the group so that they can function more effectively,” stated English.

The TRF was created by the District and Community Members in 2009, and its fundraising efforts have supported TCSD Parks and Recreation facilities and programs. The existing bylaws require all meetings to be conducted in accordance with the Brown Act, which includes only holding meetings where there is a quorum, which becomes problematic given the volunteer nature of the members of the TRF. Peterson, who served on the TRF board in the past, explained how during his tenure, it was common that the TRF was not allowed to meet three or four times a year because they didn’t have a quorum, which significantly impacted what they were able to accomplish.

Jardini, as one of the founding members of the TRF, said she always thought it should be independent.

The motion was presented by English to approve the

neighbors, mothers and fathers, sisters and brothers, aunts and uncles, children, and grandparents. They follow strict sanitation protocols are held to a higher standard of cleanliness by all the California Health Code laws that were already in place before COVID. Together we can choose to make 2021 great by going the extra mile for each other.

If you want people to wear masks, offer to supply places you visit with extras. Or stay home even more often to prevent conflict with personal space in public areas. There is always more we can give so that other people can be more free, safe, and comfortable.

“I have eaten at Órale-- I’m not even sure how many times,” Erbstoesser said. “I live in Atascadero, so anytime we are in Paso, we typically eat at Órale. I knew Joel when he was first at El Compadre in Atascadero. That’s how I originally got to know him. He was always so kind and personable. Then I became obsessed with his California burrito.”

While owning and operating a local restaurant might lead one to believe that food is the owner’s number one passion, for Joel and Kristin, it has always been about what food does for a community and creating relationships for those who wander in looking for a hot meal.

“We will go on walks around our neighborhood or wherever, and he will point someone out and be like ‘Hey, there’s John, Asada burrito with no cheese,’” Casillas says of her husband. “He just knows people’s orders because he cares. It is amazing to me.”

Once selected, Erbstoesser’s phone quickly began blowing up with friends inviting themselves to lunch with her, surprisingly all with a hankering for Mexican cuisine.

Not wasting any time at all, the lucky winner made her first trip to order tacos for herself, her husband Ryan, and two kids Elyse and Reid, on the very first night. While the giveaway was advertised as free tacos, Casillas has confirmed the winner can order whatever she pleases off the menu with her virtual gift card loaded with more than $1,000.

“I’m excited to see when she is able to finish it,” Casillas added. “That’s over 100 dollars a month of tacos.”

change of bylaws and allow the TRF to operate independently of the TCSD and was passed by all board members in a 5-0 vote.

The last item addressed was the Measure A Oversight Committee. On Aug. 27, 2019, the Templeton CSD successfully conducted an election on Measure A, which obtained authorization from voters to impose a special tax of $180 per parcel to fund Templeton Fire and Emergency Services with 24/7 staffing.

As part of this measure, the District is obliged to establish a Citizens’ Oversight Committee to satisfy the accountability requirements of Measure A. This requires a minimum of three citizens, and members would be allowed to apply for two back to back terms before being required to take a term off. It was suggested that the committee would have to meet no more than two times per year, once after the end of the fiscal year and again after the audit is complete, so the committee can review and comment on the audit.

The Board approved the bylaws as well as the application for committee members, and English recommended Rod Hewitt to be one of the citizen members of the committee.

The meeting concluded with a report from General Manager Briltz. He reported on the storm responses from the previous week, where Templeton had reports of areas receiving up to seven inches of rain over 48 hours.

The next TCSD meeting is set for Feb. 16. For agenda items and join link visit templetoncsd.org/AgendaCenter
