Crescent City, CA

City releases economic development plan By David Rupkalvis The Triplicate

Assisting local businesses, attracting new ones and growing the tourism industry are just three of many goals Crescent City is looking to embrace as it views a future without COVID-19 restrictions. During a virtual community workshop last week, the city council and dozens of city residents took part in an interactive economic development strategic action plan

meeting. During the meeting, Rob Holmlund with PlanWest Partnership, Inc., presented a plan the city has been putting together and asked those listening in to rank their priorities in a variety of subjects. City Manager Eric Wier said creating a plan is important, but having a plan that leads to action in the city is the real key. He explained when he was hired, he found many folders with economic development plans that had never been implemented.

“This has been a long time coming,” Wier said. “For us as a city, it’s about positioning ourselves properly. That’s what this is about tonight. 2020 was tough. 2021 is full of optimism.” The plan the city is working on has nine sections, with goals in each section. The ultimate goal, Holmlund said is to grow the collective economy of the city, grow the standard of living for all residents and enhance the quality of life. He said the plan should be viewed as an

economic development cookbook, with a variety of recipes that can be accomplished. For Councilman Beau Smith, the plan was a good step, but he said any changes must keep Crescent City unique. “My youngest daughter is 14,” Smith said. “When she grows up, I want her to have the same memories of Crescent City I have. We’re different. Crescent City and Del Norte County, we’re separate.” Blake Inscore, the longest-serv-

ing member of the council, said the economic development plan must look forward, not backwards. “We will never be what we once were,” Inscore said. “We can be where we are and we can be better, but we’ll never be where we once were. Our community wants to come together to invest in this community to become a destination where tourists come. That is no longer a stump speech. It is a reality.” Inscore said the key is to have

Family carries on as support falls short As COVID wanes, dangers still lurk By David Rupkalvis The Triplicate

Erin Kraemer moved to Crescent City with her three children in April 2020 with big dreams of making something better with their lives. Then the COVID-19 pandemic threw a wrench into their plans. Despite seemingly running into roadblock after roadblock during COVID, Kraemer continues to be hopeful.

COVID-19 struggles another hurdle to overcome for Crescent City family ZACK DEMARS The Triplicate

Like so many during the COVID-19 pandemic, one Crescent City family is trying to make ends meet while navigating a whole host of stresses. Erin Kraemer and her three kids moved to Crescent City in April 2019, in search of a bigger city and a place for Kraemer to get her teaching credential. Now, that’s up in the air as the family navigates the pandemic and its lasting economic

hardships. Their life in Siskiyou County wasn’t bad — they had a good homeschool group where Kraemer could work and the kids could make friends. But living on rural property was a challenge, and the area was missing the opportunities she wanted for herself and her kids. “They were just at that age,” Kraemer said. “They want to know more about the world.” So she looked at cities up and down the west coast they might be able to move to. Crescent City was

the one they could afford, and one they’d visited a few times, Kraemer said. Plus, its home to the College of the Redwoods, where Kraemer could take classes to get her teaching certificate. The four made the move in September 2019, buying a piece of property near the college and living in an RV while they waited for the construction of a manufactured home on their property. The family faced challenges — like when their camper overturned

in a Thanksgiving windstorm, forcing a move to a nearby motel — but things were looking up. Kraemer enrolled in full-time classes and got her kids signed up for school at Uncharted Shores Academy. Right as Kraemer was in the final hiring stages of two jobs (one as a Census worker, and another as a substitute teacher in area preschools), the world changed as it started to feel the impacts of a novel coronavirus which quickly spiraled Please see FAMILY, Page A7

COVID-19 cases continue to slow in Del Norte County, but the danger of the virus is clearly present. Dr. Warren Rehwaldt, the public health authority for the county, announced Tuesday that the third person linked to COVID died. The person, who has not been identified, died last week at Sutter Coast Hospital. During a presentation to the Del Norte County Board of Supervisors, Rehwaldt said overall things are improving. “Our trend has been pretty good,” he said. “Case numbers have declined quite a bit and seem to be holding that pattern. We’ll just keep our fingers crossed that it continues to hold but it’s good news.” One of the big challenges now is getting people vaccinated. “Overall, I think our operational picture as a county is pretty good,” Rehwaldt said. “We’re more or less on track with our operational plan we sent to the state. We’ve had a couple of setbacks.” Last week, the state put a hold on one lot of Moderna vaccines after several people reported side effects. Del Norte County had approximately 500 doses of the lot of vaccine. That hold has now been lifted, and the vaccine can be used. While the county has been vaccinating people as fast as possible, Rehwaldt said there is a limited number of vaccines to be used. “We just don’t have sufficient supply to expand our vaccination program in the way people would Please see DANGER, Page A7

Pacific Pantry reports fewer users despite pandemic ZACK DEMARS The Triplicate

Across the country, food banks have been reporting vast increases in demand for their support since the pandemic began as businesses close and new families lose jobs daily. But at least one Crescent City food bank is bucking that trend. “It’s kind of counterintuitive of what we thought would happen,” said Amanda Hixson, who oversees the Pacific Pantry at the Family Resource Center of the Redwoods and directs the Del Notre and Tribal Lands Community Food Council. “We don’t quite understand why our numbers are down.” Those numbers are the pantry’s usership statistics. In 2019, the pantry handed out self-selected bags of non-perishables just over 6,000 times. As news of the pandemic and related economic tailspin approached, Hixson and other pantry leaders braced for an increase in the need for its services. But that didn’t happen: In 2020, the pantry gave out

food around 3,800 times, just over half of what it had the year before the pandemic. The shift has left pantry leaders scratching their heads. One optimistic theory to explain the decrease is that new benefit programs — like federal stimulus checks, expanded unemployment and increased CalFresh benefits — have filled the gap for people who typically use the pantry. “Hopefully everyone’s just got what they need,” said Charlie Perry, Pacific Pantry’s pantry manager. “At the same time, it’s a little perplexing.” If that theory is true, the pantry’s data suggests that not everyone’s needs are being met by the expanded government assistance. “This pandemic has made things difficult for the middle class, for the working class,” Hixson said, noting that families at income levels higher than what’s eligible for benefits but lower than what makes ends meet have been struggling.

OBITUARIES Terry Jim Cox

Alice R. Hager September 23, 1920 – December 23, 2020

Alice Mant came of age during the Depression and entered young motherhood during World War II. She knew that happiness was found in home and love, not material things. She may not have cared about having only one dress throughout high school, but Alice certainly did care about Vern Hager’s dimple-sweet smile when she bought fish off his boat as a young woman. She enjoyed 62 years with dad. They went on countless hunting and fishing expeditions. She loved telling stories about getting lost while “driving” deer towards the guys or coming face to face with snakes, that, she said, were as tall as she was. Her imagination could take liberties—like the romantic middle name, Ramona, she gave herself or by saying she could fix anything with a piece of gum, a rubber band and a bobby pin. Her three daughters, Jeannie, Marie and Frances, inherited her independence, creativity and love of the outdoors. Alice made all of their clothes, even sewing (sometimes regretfully) for friends’ weddings. She knitted and crocheted. Beautiful pen and ink drawings from her youth gave way to hand-drawn cartoon greeting cards for her grandchildren and homemade bookmarks from flowers she had dried in books. She played the organ and added her contralto to

Gasquet Bible Church. She and Vern belonged to the Gideons. For many years Good News Clubs were hosted in their living room for the neighborhood kids. The Christian faith was an integral part of her and Vern’s lives. With the looks of a petite Katherine Hepburn, Alice was fit. Coastal weather couldn’t keep her indoors. She loved hiking, swimming and trout fishing. Warm summer days found her with her girls at the swimming hole under the Hiouchi Bridge and at Jedediah Smith until the Park affronted her with a $0.50 fee for day-use. She was a regular fixture around Crescent City, cycling in red polyester pants and kerchief, her plastic poncho billowing. When she could no longer cycle safely, she took rambles with her beloved, overindulged dog. Alice is survived by only two daughters, because she lost their youngest, Frances, far too young. Her grandchildren, great grandchildren and great-great grandchildren are sundry. To us, Alice was an abiding sensory experience we call “Grandma.” From the familiar smell of her house and her Jean Naté After Bath Splash, to the feather curler cover she wore on Saturdays to set her hair for church, Grandma’s presence suffused our childhoods. Being at Grandma’s meant sculling on the pond in the old grey rowboat, playing hide-and-seek in the woods and doodling on the kitchen chalkboard. It meant the smell of her fresh baked bread and her big drawer full of flour, a warm living room stove, jigsaw puzzles and Mr. Bubble. There were multi-grandchild birthday parties, Easter egg hunts where some eggs weren’t nosed until months later, and sleepovers where we

March 30, 1948 – January 18, 2021

brought friends who called her Grandma, and still do. Grandma’s house meant popsicles from the old cooler in the back room, where she also kept her homemade O’Henry bars on which some of us chipped our teeth too impatient for that deliciousness to thaw. And the card games! She was a fierce competitor. We still laugh about her “end of the week” or “refrigerator” soup, a dread and adventure. It could be clams, crab, beef and chicken, and always green beans in the same bowl. But, there was also black coffee! And Root Beer Barrels and Lemon Drops, sucked until our mouths were raw. Being with Grandma meant walks on the beach, agate hunts, camping trips, hikes, wild blackberry picking, sand dune sliding on garbage lids, and braving the elements to dig clams so we could enjoy the reward of her homemade waffles. It meant her holding us tight on the 4th of July during the beach fireworks. She and Grandpa never missed our sports games. They attended, or suffered through, our music recitals, which Grandma celebrated by making root beer floats. She kept her promise of being The Best Grandma Ever, emanating acceptance, safety, kindness, good humor and mischief. The love she gave us was freedom, fun and belonging. When she moved out of her home, she kept every letter we sent. She can finally enjoy another nap under the crabapple tree with Grandpa and one of the many Nikkis, but we have her echo wherever there’s a quick smile, bright eyes or an exclamatory huff of laughter. You weren’t just a person, Grandma, you were a feeling, and we’ll keep that.

DEATH NOTICES Camille Owosela, 73, passed away on January 6, 2021 in Crescent City, California. She was born on January 13, 1947 in Mullins, South Carolina. Camille was a 3-year resident of Del Norte County. Arrangements are under the direction of Wier’s Mortuary Chapel. Please sign the family’s online guest book at wiersmortuary.com Jerry Maddon was born on January 7, 1949 and passed away on January 10, 2021. Jerry was one of sixteen siblings. He had four children and nine grandchildren. Jerry was loved by all who knew him. He will be deeply missed. Services will not be held.

Terry Jim Cox, 72 years old, died on January 18, 2021 after a battle with cancer. He was born in Santa Fe, New Mexico on March 30, 1948 to Utah Tim Cox and Bertha Alice Cox-Buriani. He was the 2nd child to a family of 11 children: Jerry,

Clifton, Carol Ann, Mike, Ralph, Virgina, David, Susie, Linda, and Tammi Lynn. He was married for 52 years to Brenda Cox, 1 daughter Kimberly Carter, son-in-law Leonard Carter, 2 grand-daughters Alicia Strom and Britney Strom, 1 great-grandson Logan Jaime, and many nieces and nephews. Terry lived most of his life in Sonoma County, where he worked as a construction worker building Burger Kings and car washes. He retired to Del Norte County in 2003. He loved fishing at the mouth of the Smith River where he was known as “Mr. Lucky” because he always seemed to bring a fish in. Terry was also an avid knife collector and he enjoyed frequenting garage sales

and antique shops looking for new ones to add to his collection. In his younger days, he enjoyed dancing and music. He would drive downtown in his Dodge Challenger with his wife dressed-up for the evening ready to cut-up the dance floor. He also had 2 lab dogs in his life time, Fuzz and Gus. Terry, being a high school graduate, took pride in his daughter achieving a higher education. Terry will be greatly missed by his family and friends. They take comfort in knowing that he is with his savior Jesus Christ in heaven living everlasting life. Service to be held at Terry’s Home, located at 222 Brookings Ave. Smith River, California on Saturday, January 30th at 11:00 am.

Governor lifts stay-at-home order as things improve By David Rupkalvis The Triplicate

California Gov. Gavin Newsom lifted his stay-athome order across California on Monday, a move that impacts millions but changes little in Del Norte County. Last year, Newsom announced the state was being placed in five regions, and if ICU capacity in any region dropped below 15 percent, a mandatory stay-at-home would go into effect. That order was triggered in four of the five regions, with only Northern California escaping the stay-at-home order. Newsom announced Monday that improving COVID numbers statewide were enough to lift the orders and return to the state to the Blueprint for a Safer Economy, which lists each county in a colored tier based on COVID transmissions in that county. As of Monday, Del Norte County remained in the Purple Tier, the most restrictive tier in the state. “Effective immediately, all the region in the state of California are no longer in the stay-at-home order and will move back into the Blueprint,” Newsom said. The governor said in making the decision, he looked at current COVID informa-

tion and projected out four weeks. In that projection, all five regions would have ICU capacity greater than 15 percent. The greater Sacramento Region was the lowest, at 18.9 percent. Northern California was projected to have 27.3 percent ICU capacity in four weeks. “Our projections show the state being at 30.3 percent by Feb. 21,” Newsom said. “We’re not out of the woods. We’ve seen a flattening of the curve. What should be up is up and what should be down in down. Our hope and expectation is that the trend line continues and we’ll be moving quickly through the tiers.” Newsom pointed to the positivity rate in the state as one of the key metrics. Over the last week, the positivity rate in California was 8 percent, a sharp decrease from a 13 percent rate two weeks ago. Hospitalizations are down 20 percent over the last two weeks, and ICU admissions are down 10 percent. “Today, we can lay claim to seeing some real light at the end of the tunnel,” Newsom said. But the news isn’t all good. On Sunday, 328 deaths were reported in California with an average of 508 COVID-linked deaths over

the last week. “Deaths continue to be significant,” the governor said. “This is a sobering reminder of how dangerous the pandemic remains, more so now than ever as we have battled our way through the most challenging surge. It’s a reminder of how important it is to remain vigilant.” Newsom said vaccinations were also increasing in California, climbing to 153,000 a day. He said after front-line healthcare workers, the state has prioritized first responders, food and agriculture workers, teachers and school staff and anyone over age 65. Newsom also said California is weeks away from unveiling a website where anyone in the state can sign up for the vaccine. The website, called My Turn, will allow people to sign up regardless of age. When it is their turn, they will receive a text or email and they can then schedule their vaccine. The website is being tested in Los Angeles and San Diego counties and should be expanded statewide in early February. “We’re going to bring it the rest of the state in the next few weeks,” Newsom said. “It’s one of the most robust systems of any state.”

Coast Guard issues warning to mariners turning off AIS ASTORIA, ORE. - The Coast Guard is issuing a warning to mariners and commercial fisherman about the dangers and legal consequences of disabling a vessel’s Automated Identification System. The Coast Guard has seen an alarming increase of commercial fishing and crabbing vessels disabling their AIS, purportedly in an attempt to keep their fishing spots secret from competition. “AIS is a vital tool in a host of Coast Guard missions including search and rescue and port security,” said Lt. Collin Gruin, boarding team supervisor at Coast Guard Sector Columbia River. “It’s not only illegal to turn it off but also incredibly danger-

ous.” AIS is a maritime navigation safety communications system adopted by the international community to help save lives and facilitate safe transit of navigable waterways. AIS automatically transmits vessel information to shore stations, other ships, and aircraft. That includes vessel identity, type, position, course, speed, navigational status, and safety-related information. The regulation (33 CFR 164.46) in part states that all self-propelled vessels, at a length of 65-feet or more, engaged in commercial service and operating on the Territorial Seas (within 12-nautical miles of shore) must maintain

AIS in effective operating condition, which includes the continual operation of AIS and its associated devices (e.g., positioning system, gyro, converters, displays) at all times while the vessel is underway or at anchor, and, if moored, at least 15 minutes prior to getting underway. Effective operation condition also includes the accurate input and upkeep of all AIS data fields; an AIS encoding guide has been provided to facilitate complying with this requirement. “Crabbers may think that they are protecting their businesses, but they are actually making search and rescue efforts more difficult if an emergency happens at sea,” said Gruin.

According to Food Bank Director Myrtle Thompson, Rural Human Services has noticed a similar trend of seeing new faces when it distributes food. “We see more people that are traveling through,” Thompson said. With more people laid off, Thompson said she’s seen an increase in people sleeping in their cars who need RHS’s food support. But that hasn’t meant a strain on the bank’s supply of food, which Thompson also delivers each month to Klamath and Smith River. In fact, she was able to add extra days of food distribution this month. “There’s been more people giving to the food bank,” Thompson said.

If it’s because people feel unsafe leaving their homes to get food, Perry said they shouldn’t be worried. “It’s safe to come in and shop here,” Perry said. The pantry no longer allows users to enter the building, and staff shop for clients instead. Masks are required, and blue X-marks point to where clients should wait outside if a group does begin to form. Pacific Pantry, the RHS food bank and the Del Norte Food Security Task Force are all looking for dedicated volunteers to support their missions.

Check out the free cart for books of your own By Beth Austen

Del Norte County Library Manager

The Del Norte County Library District has a free book cart outside the front doors of the main branch on various genres from fiction to non-fiction to children’s books, you name it. The selection changes daily. And the best part - you may take whatever you like – for FREE. If you would like to donate books, staff asks that you not put your donation on the cart but instead call us at 707242-9794. At this time, we are only accepting children’s books and best sellers. The following guidelines

apply to donated materials: • Donations become the property of the library. • Donations will be evaluated for addition to the collection, subject to the same criteria as all other materials. (Content and format, condition, number of copies already in the collection, the need to provide a balanced collection in which a variety of subjects and viewpoints are represented, cost of processing, patron interest; these and other considerations may determine whether or not a book is added to the collection). • Donations which are not added to the collection will be given to the Friends of the Library; they will be

offered for sale in their book sales. The proceeds from these book sales come back to the library and are used to purchase new materials. • Donations which are not appropriate for the collection and not appropriate for the books sales will be discarded. The following types of materials will not be accepted as donations: • Textbooks • Reader’s Digest Condensed books • Encyclopedias • Computer software manuals older than 3 years • Magazines older than 2 years • Outdated atlases, travel books, price lists for collectors, etc.

An update on COVID-19 vaccination plan Del Norte County Department of Health and Human Services Public Health Branch We would like to provide some updates on local COVID-19 vaccination data and planning. Please understand that there are changes at a federal and state level daily, and we are doing our best to keep up with our planning and pivot when necessary. Although it is sometimes difficult to share details as they are a bit of a moving target, we recognize the importance of sharing this information with the public and will do our best to keep you updated. • The total number of vaccine doses distributed is 980 (this includes first and second

doses). • Most of the Pfizer was distributed to community health care partners (Sutter, Crescent City Skilled Nursing, United Indian Health Services and Open Door) who could self-administer the vaccine to staff. • Approximately 25% was directly distributed by PH staff to first responders. • There was a hold on Moderna this week which slowed our distribution down, but we’ve got a plan to get back on track. We have 560 vials of Moderna on hand. 500 of those doses were held as the entire allocation was within the lot number held by the California Department of Public Health. Now cleared, these doses will be directed to be

used in our next clinic. • Without ultra-cold freezers, we have not been able to order our full allocation of Pfizer. The maximum amount shared with us from Humboldt is 1,200 doses. Our freezers are being calibrated to become stable and we believe we will be able to order and receive directly soon, in the next week we expect. • We pick up between 20 and 40 vials from Humboldt each Monday, which is 100-200 doses. The amount we pick up is based upon a pre-determined list of requests from community partners. We do not pick up more than we can use. We strive for zero waste and have essentially used all of the vaccine we have picked up.

Supervisors vote in favor of first marijuana growing business By David Rupkalvis The Triplicate

Del Norte County supervisors cleared the way for the first commercial marijuana growing operation in the county. By a 4-0 vote, supervisors approved an appeal by Jeremy Rodriguez and Moving North LLC after the county’s Planning Commission denied a request for a use permit for the operation. Under county marijuana regulations, all growing operations must get a use permit by going through the Planning Commission. If the commission denies the permit, applicants can appeal to the board of supervisors. County planner Taylor Carsley told supervisors the commission denied the permit during a December meeting, after which Rodriguez appealed. On Tuesday, supervisors had a lot of questions, many related to whether or not a fence around the building should be required.

“We don’t know how this is going to unfold in our community. That is why the board proceeded with caution, so we could see how the first business was going to operate in our community.” Chris Howard Chairman, board of supervisor

Supervisor Valerie Starkey asked whether requiring a fence might actually lead to more attention for the business. Supervisor Gerry Hemmingsen agreed. “I was concerned about the fence issue myself,” Hemmingsen said. “Is there something wrong with the security of the building. I don’t often think about having to secure a secure building. Why would we require fencing? It looks to me like there’s enough requirements on this permit already. I have a fence at my building, but it gets cut weekly, but we don’t have a problem with people getting into the building. I think the building itself would be fairly secure. I would think

with this type of a business, you’re aware of security and are going to want to secure your product.” Rodriguez agreed, but said he would take whatever steps the county felt was needed. “I feel a new fence being built might just draw more eyes to it, but I will and can build a fence,” Rodriguez said. Rodriguez added that the building in Smith River is fairly secure, but he has plans to add security doors to add an extra layer. The operation will be fully inside a 5,000-squarefoot building, with sealed rooms and charcoal filters to prevent odor from escaping. Between two and five people will be employed year round,

with additional hires during cultivation. During public comment, nine letters in support of the business were read into the record and two other people spoke in favor. Many said virtually the same thing, pointing out the business has vowed to support schools and will bring in increased tax revenue. “The people have voted. It is legal and should be treated as any other business without any other cannabis specific limitations or restrictions,” many of the letters read. Board Chairman Chris Howard said the county regulation requires marijuana growing businesses to renew their use permits annually. “We don’t know how this is going to unfold in our community,” Howard said. “That is why the board proceeded with caution, so we could see how the first business was going to operate in our community.” After the discussion, supervisors voted 4-0 to approve the appeal and issue the permit.

Mayor Pro Tem Alex Campbell agreed, saying Crescent City must give people a reason to stop when driving through. “If you travel up the coast of Oregon, there are so many small towns you want to stop in,” he said. “This can also be that town, but we need to invest in the community.

like for it to happen,” he said. “If we had enough vaccine, I would love to get everyone in our county vaccinated in a month. But our vaccine supply is just a trickle and it needs to be a flood. Until that is solved in a way that is way above us, we’re going to have a slow rollout.” Rehwaldt said the health authority is planning mass vaccination events in next few weeks. Exact details have not been finalized. He said local clinics also want to participate and vaccinate patients, but the supply chain is the hold up. Supervisor Gerry Hemmingsen asked Rehwaldt about the number of vaccines the county is receiving. “It varies,” Rehwaldt said. “One week, we had the ability to order 500 doses of Moderna, the next week zero. Last week, we ordered 300 doses of Moderna, this week 100. That’s not a big supply. In Phase 1b, we have about 5,000 people we need to vaccinate. That’s going to take a long time if we get 300 doses a week.” In some good news, the

a tourism hub as well as an industrial hub. We’re on the border with Oregon, and I think we capitalize on that more. “Sometimes the place between the big cities can be beneficial. You have to have a place for people to sop, but you want them to stop. You can’t be a drive-through community.” The goals listed during the meeting were: • Strengthening the economic development team and partnerships • Creating a system for data acquisition and analysis • Streamline regulations • Stimulate private sector development • Retain and attract jobs

• Improve infrastructure • Beautification and tourism • Enhance downtown • Acknowledge local businesses When those in attendance voted on their priorities, beautification and tourism, retain and attract jobs and stimulate private sector development were the top three. Members of the council had their own ideas, too. “Before COVID, I probably would have had different answers,” Smith said. “But now that we’re in a pandemic, attacking infrastructure and job development.” “If we’re going to invest in tourism, we have to invest

in downtown,” Inscore said. “Those two there go together.” Mayor Jason Greenough said beautification was a key step. “People come to drivethrough communities and if it looks sketchy, they don’t stop,” he said. “I’m not saying Crescent City looks sketchy, but there’s room for improvement.” The plan also laid out economic development districts and asked attendees to vote. The voters said downtown, the harbor district and the Front Street area should be top priorities. When asked about specific plans, or recipes, that should be worked on, the people

voted for similar topics, picking implementing the Beachfront Master Plan, revitalizing the harbor and revitalizing downtown as the top three. With housing at a shortage, one of the goals was to address that. The plan called for the city to create a list of sites that could be developed and to work with builders to get things moving. The goal would be to have 100 new units in the permitting pipeline at a time. When asked what the strengths of the community were, voters strongly favored the small-town feeling, the natural environment and U.S. 101 moving through town.

At the end of the meeting, the council seemed excited about moving forward. That was the key, they said, the city had to act quickly. “I really look forward to picking a few of these and diving in and getting something done,” Inscore said. Greenough agreed, saying it is time for the city to act. “We can’t start with a defeatist attitude,” he said. “The thing I love about our staff is we are really building our partnerships. I see us moving forward. I’m excited. This plan we’ve got here, it’s top notch. It’s nice to have a plan, but it doesn’t do anything if we don’t take it off the shelf.”

In some places, 50 percent of the eligible people are declining to get the vaccine. We don’t think that will hold with seniors.” Rehwaldt said the health authority is working to set up a call center, but that, too, is a little way off.

where her actual money was, she discovered there’d been a mix up – the agency had somehow gotten her social security number wrong. As of Jan. 21, the California Employment Development Department reported over 900,000 claims backlogged by processing issues like this one. Most of them were waiting for claimant certification, a holdup that some have associated with glitches on the EDD website. “Then I got a flurry of all those little paper claim forms,” Kraemer said. She experienced her share of website troubles, too. On one occasion, after getting access to a scanner, the site wouldn’t let her upload the inch-thick stack of documents to verify her claim. Still, she filled out each little paper claim form, and sent them back. But she got nothing, until a notice arrived, telling her she had to reapply for benefits. This time was more successful — she got an award letter and benefits for the month of December and the

first week of January. But shortly after she used some of the funds to re-enroll for online classes to get her teaching certification, she heard back from the agency, which told her the payments were made in error. The agency told her she needed to pay them back. “I got a little less than $700 and now they say they want it back,” Kraemer said. “How are people even supposed to jump through all those hoops?” Meanwhile, the EDD was dealing with a massive fraud scandal, after $2 billion or more in benefits was allegedly siphoned away in the names of infants, inmates and residents of other states. Kraemer thinks her benefits could’ve been impacted by the scandal in some way, if someone had applied in her name.

But she can’t be certain, since she’s had a challenging time even getting through on the phone. With lines busy, she’d often tried to call at odd hours. “I was setting the alarm and getting up at like 4:00 in the morning,” Kraemer said. Her EDD troubles remain unresolved and she’s worried about how she’ll be able to make house payments and keep the internet on for her kids’ school work at home. While she thinks they’ll be OK, Kraemer worries about needing to let go of the house if she can’t get back to work in the next year or so. “I’m fortunate,” Kraemer said, adding that her kids have been taking the year’s difficulties in stride. “I’m grateful for what we have.” “It’s not the end of the world,” Kraemer said. “The point is, it’s not just me.”

Public Notices under the terms of the Deed of Trust, estimated fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligations secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of this Notice of Trustee’s Sale is estimated to be $95,413.60 (Estimated). However, prepayment premiums, accrued interest and advances will increase this figure prior to sale. Beneficiary’s bid at said sale may include all or part of said amount. In addition to cash, the Trustee will accept a cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the California Financial Code and authorized to do business in California, or other such funds as may be acceptable to the Trustee. In the event tender other than cash is accepted, the Trustee may withhold the issuance of the Trustee’s Deed Upon Sale until funds become available to the payee or endorsee as a matter of right. The property offered for sale excludes all funds held on account by the property receiver, if applicable. 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. 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 In Source Logic at 702-6597766 for information regarding the Trustee’s Sale or visit the Internet Web site address listed below for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, CA05000933-19-1. 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 scheduledsale. Notice to Tenant NOTICE TO TENANT FOR FORECLOSURES AFTER JANUARY 1, 2021 You mayhave a right to purchase this property
