Crescent City, CA

City Council elects new mayor

By David Rupkalvis The Triplicate

BROOKINGS — There was a seismic shift in local government Monday when three members — two new to the council — were sworn into the city council and in one of their first moves, elected a mayor and mayor pro tem from their group.

Shortly after Jason Greenough, Alex Campbell and Beau Smith took their seats, the three voted together to name Greenough mayor and Campbell as mayor pro tem. Blake Inscore, who served as mayor heading into the

meeting, was also nominated as mayor, but the nomination was defeated by a 3-2 vote. Inscore and Councilman Isaiah Wright voted for Inscore’s nomination and against Greenough’s.

As soon as the vote concluded, Greenough took over as mayor and finished up the meeting.

Before the vote, Heidi Kime, who served as mayor pro tem before leaving the board Monday, and several residents who wrote letters asked the council to reappoint Inscore as mayor.

During her farewell speech, Kime told the board Inscore would be the best choice to con-

Jason Greenough tinue to lead the city.

“I really hope you guys elect Blake to be the mayor again,”

she said. “I think, Jason, you would be a great pro tem and really get some experience in that position. It’s a lot of work, a lot of effort, and Blake, I think you’re a wonderful leader. I really hope that happens tonight.”

City Clerk Robin Patch then read three letters into the record.

“I would like to take a moment to express my support that Blake Inscore remain mayor of Crescent City,” Herman Brinkle wrote. “He has the skills, knowledge and required relationships to keep our city going in the right direction. Mr. Inscore most closely represents my ideals as a

constituent.”

Tamara Leighton also wrote in favor of Inscore, saying his preparation sets him apart from the rest of the council.

“Mayor Inscore is respectable to all people and opinions, and he is collaborative and works in a way to bring people together,” Leighton wrote. “Please vote for his continued service to the city.

I strongly support Blake Inscore for mayor of Crescent City.”

Brad Kime also wrote in his support.

“I want to lend my support for Blake Inscore to remain as

After struggling with Tourette’s syndrome and depression, Billy Hartwick has found a second calling by using his book to help others.

Publisher picks up life story of former Crescent City principal Zack Demars The Triplicate

BROOKINGS — Billy Hartwick has found his next step.

In the past year, he’s been stopped on the street multiple times. People know him for his very visible backpack — it’s got bright green and purple shapes all over — and for the book he wrote about his “Invisible Backpack.”

A year ago, the former Crescent City teacher and principal self-published the book, a collection of rhythmical writings telling his life’s story. Since then, he’d been traveling around the west, promoting it.

At the time he launched the book on Amazon, he didn’t quite know what his next step would be.

But one of those people who stopped him, recognizing his

backpack, gave him the inspiration to find it. After she’d stopped him and shown him that she was carrying a copy of the book, he decided to send the book to six publishers and asked them to publish and market it professionally.

Within days, he got multiple offers — and one from the publishing house he was most excited about, Page Publishing.

Now, Hartwick’s splitting his time between Brookings — a place he says feels like home — and San Diego — a place he says he loves — as the book gets published and he launches a handful of other projects.

Once it’s re-published by the professional publisher in March, Hartwick hopes his life experiences will encourage readers to be confident in themselves and to stop judging people they don’t know.

“When we judge people, we’re hurting them,” Hartwick said.

He would know — he’s been judged for a long time, he said.

His Tourette’s syndrome, with involuntary body movements, means people have sometimes assumed he was intoxicated or otherwise disruptive.

That judgement he felt in many areas of his life made it a challenge, he said. For years, that, coupled with reactions to his Tourette’s medication, left him with depression and anxiety, which culminated in numerous near-attempts to take his own life.

Those painful memories are the kinds of things Hartwick carries in his “invisible backpack.”

Everyone has one, filled with the pain and trauma that we collect through life, he said.

But that’s the past, Hartwick said.

“Am I going to continue to be judged? No, I’m going to look at the seagulls going in and out,” he said, watching a flock of gulls land in the mouth of the Chetco River.

He hopes the book will help readers recognize what’s in their backpacks and try to take things out along the way.

“If you take something out of your backpack, and you don’t like it, you can crawl back in,” he said.

Now, he lives in Brookings with a friend, who’s helping him promote the book and launch several other projects they hope will help the community. Together, alongside an artist and other team members, they’re launching a not-for-profit, so the proceeds from the book are shared with organizations like the Tourette Association of America.

Pelican Bay picks charities for donations

By Zack Demars The Triplicate

Pelican Bay inmates will be funding a handful of Christmas wishes this year, after the Pelican Bay Athletic Organization handed out checks to two different gift-giving charities last week.

The organization raises funds from inmates at the Pelican Bay State Prison. The organization brings in food from restaurants and grocery stores, and inmates purchase the food with money they earn in jobs while incarcerated.

The outcome is a substantial

chunk of change raised by the organization: With this round of fundraising, the organization donated over $16,000 to Santa’s Workshop in Crescent City and $4,000 to the Oasis Shelter in Gold Beach.

In Crescent City, with stacks of gifts beginning to pile up, “it’s starting to look like a workshop,” said Celia Perez, a licensed social worker who’s taken up the lead on Santa’s Workshop this year.

The group has been around for at least 20 years, according to Perez. After donating to the

Leaders of the Santa’s Workshop program accept a check from the Pelican Bay Athletic Organization.

With COVID-19 devastating the business community, Del Norte County, commissioners asked Dr. Warren Rehwaldt, the county’s public health officer, to work with the state to lessen the restrictions.

Rehwaldt updated commissioners on COVID-19 in the community.

“Locally, we’ve been pressed hard with new cases, about a five-fold increase in cases we were seeing a couple of months ago,” Rehwaldt said. “This is starting to impact our medical system. There are three cases in the hospital, which we haven’t seen before.”

Rehwaldt said the increase in cases has impacted his small staff and has made it difficult to fully investigate each case.

“Fortunately, a lot of people who we’ve reached out to, they have already taken some steps and have gone into self-isolation,” Rehwaldt said. “So, I think people are getting the message.”

The doctor said a vaccine is just around the corner, and he expects doses to get to Del Norte County soon.

“For us, it’s going to be a small number of doses, but it’s going to be enough to prioritize getting our front-line health force vaccinated and possibly at the skilled nursing facility, at least a good portion of them.”

Rehwaldt said he expects Del Norte County to receive 450 doses of the vaccine during the initial release. The small number will only be enough to vaccinate those in greatest need. One problem Del Norte County has right now is the Pfizer vaccine must be stored at extremely cold temperatures, and the county does not have a freezer to store them right now. County commissioners voted to spend $5,300 on a freezer Tuesday, but the early vaccines will have to be stored in another county.

The doctor said vaccines for the general public are still several months away.

After hearing from Rehwaldt, several commissioners asked him to intervene to help local businesses.

“Is there any big difference between our viruses in Del Norte County versus Curry County,” Commissioner Bob Berkowitz asked. “The reason I ask that is a number of people I’ve talked to are going to Curry County because, of course no sales tax, but they can go and dine in at restaurants with no social distancing, and they don’t seem like they have a problem. What’s the difference between Del Norte County, where we’re in a lockdown versus Curry County, which seems to be open?”

“I don’t think there’s any difference,” Rehwaldt responded.

“We know there’s a lot of traffic Please see Restrictions, Page A7

Humboldt Energy Independence fund awards $80,000 to lab The HSU Native American Studies Food Sovereignty Lab and Cultural Workspace project has received an award for $80,000 from Humboldt Energy Independence Fund. In Spring 2020, students working on the project submitted an idea paper to HEIF to apply for funds to begin remodeling the lab space.

The Food Sovereignty Lab will sit adjacent to the Native Forum and Goudin’i Gallery in the Behavioral and Social Sciences building in the former Hilltop Marketplace. The lab will function as a workshop and research center for practicing and centering indigenous food sovereignty through indigenous pedagogies, the location of the lab as part of Native American Studies program at Humboldt State, and respect for indigenous cultures such as the Wiyot and surrounding peoples of Humboldt Bay. This space will help to strengthen the bond between the local community, indigenous nations, and students at HSU by providing space which can support basket weaving, food preparation and regalia making while subsequently supporting curriculum for the College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences and the College of Natural Resources and Sciences.

HEIF is a concept championed by students whereby student fee money collects into a fund that is then available for sustainability projects on the Humboldt State University campus.

The mission of HEIF is to create a more sustainable campus by promoting

energy independence. Goals of HEIF that align with the Food Sovereignty Lab include: “HEIF will achieve its mission through projects that are developed by students and, to the extent possible, implemented, monitored and maintained with strong student involvement” and “HEIF will strive to make its projects derive from and be connected to the curriculum of the university.”

The Food Sovereignty Lab and Cultural Workspace is a concept also championed by students. Conceived by students in NAS 331: Indigenous Natural Resource Management, where students represented 12 different majors from both the College of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences and the College of Natural Resources and Sciences. Students envisioned a space where cultural representation can be address and cultural revitalization of local foods and knowledge can occur with meaningful tribal and community collaboration.

Dr. Cutcha Risling Baldy (Hupa, Karuk, Yurok) is the Director of the Lab and Dr. Kaitlin Reed (Yurok, Hupa, Oneida) is the Assistant Director. The lab is also supported by a robust steering committee with representatives from several local area tribes, tribal organizations and students.

Nayre Herrera, a student voting member of the HEIF Committee, put forth the motion in HEIF’s committee meeting Oct. 26 to contribute funding for the Lab in the amount of $80,000.

“We are continuing with putting together further

fundraising materials. The sooner we can reach our $250,000 goal the sooner we can get started on the remodel,” said Cutcha Risling Baldy.

“Because this funding request was championed by a student, was lobbied by student committee members during voting discussion, and then voting was driven by a student motion and approved with significant student support, it’s exciting to see our youth community continue to lead the way and speak out about what they think are meaningful investments for HEIF. In addition, this student leadership directly honors one of the original intentions of HEIF, which is that it would persist as a student driven initiative. Furthermore, while projects funded by HEIF have changed in scope over the last decade to include concepts that go beyond exclusively energy generation, supporting a design for this Lab that maintains LEED Gold Building standards, selects the most cutting-edge energy efficient equipment, and that has important social and economic impacts seems to be enormously innovative and forward thinking,” said Katie Koscielak, sustainability analysis at HSU and non-voting member of HEIF Committee.

Facilities Management estimates the cost of remodeling the former Hilltop Marketplace into a cutting- edge research and workspace facility to be $250,000. NAS and the Lab Steering Committee are launching a robust fundraising campaign to cover the cost of the remodel.

DEL NORTE TRIPLICATE

Crescent City says thank you to Kime, Fallman

council hired Wier as city manager and the city hired a new police chief, fire chief, public works director, human resources director and city clerk while creating the recreation department and hiring a director.

Wier turned to Fallman, saying the councilman was the youngest member of the council ever elected. When he was elected in 2016, he was just 20 years old.

“Mr. Fallman, you started young, but 20 wasn’t the

starting point for you,” Wier said. “As I understand, you were a police explorer long before that and wanted to be part of this city and make a difference long before that.”

Kime, who runs her own business and volunteered in different capacities before being elected, was also noted.

“Miss Kime was a huge, huge supporter of this community,” Wier said.

“She came here and wanted to make a difference. That’s

what I can say about Heidi.

As soon as she was elected on the council, she was knocking on my office door saying how we can do better.”

Members of the council also had a chance to say thank you.

“Alex, Heidi, I really appreciate both of you,” Mayor Jason Greenough said.

“You have brought your experience, you’ve brought your love for this community onto this council and I re-

ally appreciate both of you.

We haven’t always agreed on everything, but we found ways to compromise.”

Former Mayor Blake Inscore was also thankful to the outgoing council members.

“Alex and Heidi, I think you both know how much I appreciate both of you,” Inscore said. “We would not have been able to do the things we got done if you weren’t a part of it. Thank you for what you brought to

the table.”

Kime said she will miss working with her colleagues and city staff.

“I really have enjoyed this,” she said. “It’s a lot of work. People don’t have a clue. It’s bittersweet.

I would have loved to continue on the council, but for personal reasons I had to go. But I won’t be gone.

I’m in this community.”

Fallman said the voters who gave their support to a 20-year-old is something special.

“The people of Crescent City took a chance investing in a young person,” he said. “Electing someone as young as me was, quite frankly, a risk. I acknowledge that. I’m so grateful to this community for believing in me enough to see me lead. It’s really one of the great privileges I’ve ever known.”

Kime and Fallman were both elected in 2016 and decided not to run for re-election in 2020. They were replaced on the council by Alex Campbell and Beau Smith.

“Our concern with the drainage is his property is much higher than ours, and when it rains, it drops from his property to ours.”

The approved permit requires Flores to build a six-foot concrete fence, and he told supervisors he would do that.

“The fence was brought down because we needed to move it back to the proper property line,” Flores said. “We will replace it with a chain-link fence temporarily and construct a block fence.”

Flores also said the entire project was being built with permeable properties to allow water to soak into the ground. In addition, the engineering plan shows the water-retention pond would have less water leaving the property than it currently does.

While four supervisors voted in favor of the appeal, Commissioner Roger Gitlin was opposed.

“This is the second time our board of supervisors is overturning an appeal from our planning commission,” Gatlin said. “They are our appointees. This is a 4-0 vote, with one recusal.

It’s kind of clear the four members have an opinion, and I don’t like, just on face value, overturning our designated appointees.”

Flores explained the construction at the site

would be using two, 20foot shipping containers for each home. Some work would be done off-site, but most would be done in place.

“They won’t look like shipping containers,” Flores said. “They will look like cottages. They’ll have windows and doors.

They will be partially constructed in a factory, but they will be finished on site, so we will have local inspections. Even though they are modular units, they will look like they have siding on them.”

But Gitlin was not impressed.

“I’ve heard from a number of your neighbors, and they’re none too happy with the kind of construction you’re about to engage in,” he said. “While I certainly appreciate we do have a housing shortage, I’m not sure this is the answer.”

Board Chair Gerry Hemmingsen said he was in favor, pointing out the issue in front of the board was only about stormwater drainage.

“I don’t think we’re supposed to worry about how this thing is built, we’re talking about drainage,” Hemmingsen said. “He is just looking for an alternative that will make his units work better financially.”

Routine testing of staff led to discovery of COVID-19 cases at Granada Rehabilitation & Wellness Center in Eureka.

Thirty people in the facility have tested positive, including one staff person and 29 residents.

Skilled nursing facilities and other long-term care facilities are required by the state to test all staff on a weekly basis. A positive result from that routine testing activates a set of responses outlined by the California Department of Public Health.

Following the initial positive result from the most recent round of routine testing, Humboldt County Public Health ex-

panded testing this week to every person in the facility, which has so far turned up 29 additional cases in residents. Experts in infection control from public health and CDPH are assisting the facility in containing the outbreak, including on-site support. Public health will provide ongoing testing of all staff and residents and additional expertise as needed.

Humboldt County Deputy Health Officer Dr. Josh Ennis said the outbreak demonstrates the difficulty in keeping the vulnerable safe from COVID infection once community transmission is so widespread.

“We have a level of disease circulating right

now that compromises our ability to conserve our hospital beds and ultimately protect the vulnerable,” he said. “These residents are beloved community members, family of somebody you may know, often with deep roots in Humboldt, and our thoughts are with them right now. It’s time for all of us to step up and connect our everyday actions to life real-life consequences. Mask, distance, wash hands and don’t gather.”

Administrators at Granada are following recommended containment strategies and are working closely with public health and CDPH to closely monitor residents’ health.

Crescent City said farewell and thank to two members of the city council in an emotional send-off Monday.

During their final council meeting, Mayor Pro Tem Heidi Kime and Councilman Alex Fallman heard a lot of thank yous and had one final chance to address their colleagues and the community as a councilmember.

City Manager Eric Wier said the two council members made a difference in their four years of service.

“We do have an opportunity to celebrate two really good council members,” Wier said. “A lot of people don’t realize the effort that goes into being a city council person. It’s not just the meetings we’re in tonight, there’s boards and commission and there’s all the after-hours events.”

Wier said the two were part of a council that oversaw a lot of changes in the city. During their terms, the

Commissioners approve Routine screening uncovers appeal to allow construction COVID outbreak at Eureka facility

By David Rupkalvis The Triplicate

The Del Norte County Board of Supervisors overturned a decision by the Planning Commission to allow a housing project to move forward.

By a 4-1 vote, supervisors approved an appeal by Nato Flores to allow onsite water detention rather than the regulations that require stormwater to be moved off-site to a public road.

Taylor Carsley, a planner for the county, explained Flores wanted to build an on-site water retention pond in an effort to make the project financially viable. In October, the Planning Commission voted unanimously to reject Flores’ request.

The commission had approved a use permit for the site in 2019, but was asked approve changes to the permit, which was denied.

Carsley explained to supervisors that county regulations require stormwater to be carried off-site.

In this case, Flores had hired an engineering firm to come up with alternative of a retention pond.

“From an engineering standpoint, it seems the alternative does address the management of the 25-year storm, just as the off-site would,” Carsley said. “It would provide a fairly large amount of houses in the area.”

Flores has already built some homes in the area — one single-family home and eight bungalows. He wants to build an additional 18 one-bedroom houses, which he would rent out.

The majority of commissioners seemed swayed by the need for new homes, especially lower-income housing.

“In this case, finding the balance to create houses in our community is extremely important,” Commissioner Chris Howard said.

“I see no reason for us not to approve the application.”

Jerry and Rebecca Young, who own property next to the construction site, wrote a letter asking for the appeal to be denied.

The Youngs said Flores has already cause some problems by taking down a fence that has not been replaced.

A new statewide plan for stay at home released Dr. Warren Rehwaldt Del Norte County Public Health Officer

The new statewide plan for stay at home has just been released. I shouldn’t really say new, because it is not new in concept, we have been in shelter in place before. What is new is the way it’s going to happen.

Many counties have been asking for months, to have the different regions of the state treated differently during this pandemic, because we all know that there is a big difference from our part of the state and the opposite end of the

state. The state health department saw the common sense behind the proposal, and some time ago, asked us local health officers to chime in on the process.

The end result is what was described last week during the press announcements.

California is now divided into five regions with regard to regional public health issues, and the first use of this setup is to implement the stay at home order by region.

This means that the key indicator of impact to a region (ICU bed capacity) is going to be measured in all

the counties in our region and used to decide when that order impacts us. As of this last weekend, the order went into effect for counties in the southern half of the state, because their remaining ICU bed capacity was less than 15% of the total available. That’s a bad place to be when case counts are on the rise for this virus.

We may be close behind, as the numbers are going to be measured daily, and by the time you read this, it may already be in effect. Once invoked, the stay at home order remains in place for at least three weeks, sort of

a cool down time, to slow the virus down and take the strain off of the medical system.

The order has some differences from last, mainly about schools, as they are not included at this time.

Places of worship are also not treated differently than under the tier restrictions, and since we were all pretty much in purple tier, the rules for that tier remain in effect. Restaurants and bars serving food can continue to offer take out, and retail can continue at 20% capacity, however that works out. Dentists and medical

GARFIELD • Jim Davis

offices can remain open, other “essential services” as before, can remain open.

But all the other things that have been able to be open this summer, such as family entertainment, museums, aquariums, playgrounds, hair salons, personal care services, etc. are going to have to close up shop when the order takes place. There will be a lot more detail posted online, if and when the order takes effect for our region.

We also wanted to clarify what has happened locally. Our case counts have jumped quite a bit, on the order of five times as many as we were dealing with this time last month. There is no reason to believe that the numbers are going to drop, and in fact, they will probably increase. In that regard, we are no different

than the rest of the region.

Our small team was hit pretty hard the last two weeks, and we have pivoted a bit, and drawn in some more staff to help with the effort.

The situation dashboard is what we heard the most about last week, and the lack of updates. We have new county staff taking much of this project off the plate for us at public health, so we can focus on the immediate need of keeping up with new cases and contacts. That work is still critical, and we cannot let that down, even for a day.

We hope to be able to get the dashboard fully updated with details sometime later this week, but the totals of cases should be able to be reported pretty regularly, as well as activity at the hospital.

Tufted puffins no longer threatened or endangered Hilary Dorsey Country Media

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service announced Wednesday, Dec. 2, that the tufted puffin, a charismatic seabird on the North Pacific Ocean, does not warrant listing as threatened or endangered under the Endangered Species Act. The tufted puffin is a small black bird with a distinctive white mask, bright orange bill and golden tuffs of feathers on either side of its head. According to U.S. Fish and Wildlife, it fishes the deep ocean for much of the year, but in summer months, can be seen nesting in burrows on islands and cliffs along the coast.

“The most recent range-wide estimate of the species is approximately 3 million individuals, and about 82 percent of the known population appears to demonstrate stable or increasing trends,” U.S. Fish and Wildlife reported.

Climate change and oil spills pose the biggest threats to tufted puffins.

The service’s status review found tufted puffins are undergoing a range contraction on the southern

“The tufted puffin is an essential member of the coastal and marine ecosystems in which it resides,” said Stewart Cogswell, supervisor of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Anchorage Fish and Wildlife Conservation Office, in a press release. “Although

the species does not warrant listing under the Endangered Species Act, we will continue to work with others to monitor and conserve this iconic seabird throughout its range.”

John Underwood, board member of Friends of Haystack Rock, said because the tufted puffin is no longer listed, there is no additional protection or government funding for research. Friends of Haystack Rock funds the

research of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Scientists have put together a strategy to identify puffins in the California Current.

The research involves trying to determine if the puffins are a distinct population segment. Under the Endangered Species Act, a distinct population segment is a vertebrate population or groups of populations that is distinct from other populations of the species and significant

in relation to the entire species.

“We think they are distinct enough to qualify for this segment,” Underwood said.

According to Friends of Haystack Rock, Haystack Rock is home to the largest tufted puffin breeding colony in Oregon. These seabirds show up to the rock in early April and spend about 16 weeks at the rock.

Underwood said puffin populations are still declining. The population of tufted puffins has decreased dramatically at Haystack Rock and is in significant decline or has disappeared entirely from colonies in California, Oregon, Washington, Japan and the Gulf of Alaska.

U.S. Fish and Wildlife lays out a grid on the rock at Haystack to observe the birds, showing every burrow used, Underwood added. There used to be thousands of puffins at the rock; now there are less than 100. U.S. Fish and Wildlife goes out to the rock 3-4 days a week and monitors when puffins are bringing food back to the burrows.

“They meet at the same location every year,”

Underwood said of the puffins.

Underwood calls the puffins an icon of Cannon Beach. People come from all over to see the iconic bird. The Great Puffin Watch, held over the Fourth of July weekend brings hundreds of people.

People traveling to the area for the holiday weekend learn about the event from going to the beach and brochures in various hotels.

“We get the opportunity to educate folks about the puffins,” Underwood said of the event.

People who attend this event can view the puffins with birding scopes and binoculars. Underwood said this helps people feel like they bond with the birds.

Crescent City childcare centers facing shut down receive grant Three Crescent City nonprofit childcare centers were on the brink of shutting down by the end of the year — victims of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic — when they received a $20,000 grant this week to prevent staff layoffs and keep serving 49 children and their families.

“We were literally going to have an emergency board meeting this month to decide whether to close the three centers down in January. It was that dire of a situation,” said Melodee Mitchell, director for the Del Norte Child Care Council. “These families

are working families and this would have directly impacted their ability to work — and we would have had to lay off employees, who would be forced to draw unemployment.”

The grant will allow the three centers — at Mary Peacock Elementary, Little School of the Redwoods and Redwood Elementary — to operate until April, 2021. The centers operate under the auspices of the nonprofit Del Norte Child Care Council.

The grant was provided by the COVID-19 Regional Response Fund created in March by Wild Rivers

Community Foundation and Humboldt Area Foundation.

The fund offers rapid assistance to struggling nonprofits, charitable organizations and agencies in Del Norte, Humboldt, Curry and Trinity counties.

Keri Mosey, coordinator for WRCF’s Nonprofit Alliance, heard of the potential closures and encouraged Mitchell to apply for the grant.

“Through our relationship with these community groups, we are building a powerful, trusted network of support that makes it easier to lift one another up as we all try to get through

these difficult times,” said Mosey.

Mitchell said the lack of financial assistance from the state or federal governments has left childcare facilities across the state scrambling to keep their doors open.

Many of these centers, like the three in Crescent City, are solely dependent on enrollment fees to operate.

Making matters more difficult, COVID restrictions reduced the number of the children that can occupy any given center, while at the same time the closure of all Del Norte Unified School District classrooms has significantly increased

the demand for child care.

“While other industries have received support from Congress to ensure they can remain open during the pandemic, child care has yet to see meaningful investment,” Mitchell said.

“This is a critical industry that supports economic recovery and family financial stability. With lower enrollment rates, less revenue and increased expenses, child care providers cannot hang on much longer. Many have already permanently closed.”

Heidi Bachman, director of the childcare center at Redwood Elementary,

said parents who currently enroll their children at that center are still working at places such as Sutter Coast Hospital, Pelican Bay State Prison, Del Norte Unified School District, a local petroleum company and Del Norte County offices.

“Parents were stressing out about what they will do if we shut down. These families and these kids need us,” Bachman said.

DEL NORTE TRIPLICATE

Wyden, Merkley urge feds to begin expedited review of dam removal plan U.S. Senators Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley recently wrote federal regulators to urge consideration of an amended application for the Lower Klamath Project and begin environmental reviews as soon as possible of the plan’s four proposed dam removals.

The Oregon senators’ letter to Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

Secretary Kimberly D. Bose comes in the wake of the Nov. 17 announcement

by Oregon and California agreeing to become co-licensees with the Klamath River Renewal Corporation in the dam removal project.

Wyden and Merkley wrote in a letter with two other lawmakers that the KRRC has a plan, schedule and resources in place to

implement the settlement, and has the financial capacity to take over the Lower Klamath Project and subsequently remove the dams.

“Additionally, KRRC’s amended application demonstrates that there is a sufficient body of environmental documentation to allow for expedited environmental review,” they wrote.

Restrictions

is less lethal,” he said. “In fact, the trend has been we’ve had a new strain that’s more potent. It’s hard to know lethality of the virus when you have counter measures in place.

As far as the restaurant owners, I’m empathetic with their plight. I understand that it just doesn’t feel right that they’re being constrained to that degree. The problem is when you’re in the middle of what appears to be a surge, it’s hard to make the calls. I don’t see anything in the forseeable future. A good portion of the state, the majority of California is in a stay at home order.

We are not.”

But Gitlin said something must be done and done quickly for Del Norte businesses.

“There are businesses that are tragically going under,” Gitlin said. “When we have businesses that are dying in our community, businesses that create taxes and jobs, it looks like the ability of people to enjoy life in Del Norte County is almost nil. They can drive 26 miles to the north and have a good

dinner.

“This community is dying as we look at it.

Businesses are hurting.

What’s left after this coronavirus leaves is something we may not recognize. I appreciate your continued vigilance in pleading our case to the state public health department that there are exceptions to their onesize-fits-all rules that effect tiers. They affect human beings. We’ve closed our community and that is dire to me and the people who have called me.”

But not all commissioners agreed with that approach.

“It’s not Dr. Rehwaldt’s job to present our case to Sacramento,” Commissioner Chris Howard said.

“It’s Dr. Rehwaldt’s job to implement the best he can under the restrictions. It is our job as elected officials to spread that word in Sacramento and try to get the ear to have some of the restrictions that are heavy, heavy, heavy burdens on our economy, out children, it is our job to express those considerations to Sacramento.”

options.

Still though, the program is open to families this year who might be facing unemployment due to pandemic closures, and the chance to give those gifts gives Perez the feeling of “Christmas magic,” she said.

“They are genuinely grateful and thankful for the service and receiving the gifts,” Perez said of the families who receive gifts from Santa’s Workshop.

With the impact of the pandemic in mind, Perez said she’s also trying to keep the money she spends on gifts within the community by shopping at small businesses which have struggled during shutdowns and an economic downturn.

“To spend the money locally, for the businesses that are struggling locally, that’s a big thing for me,” Perez said. “It’s going into some of these mom and pop shops.”

Santa’s Workshop is accepting donations until gifts are delivered Dec. 18, Perez said. Interested donors can contact Rural Health Services at 707464-7441 for information.

Up the highway, the Oasis Shelter’s Christmas program received just more than $4,000 from the Pelican Bay group. The shelter, located in Gold Beach, serves people between Coos Bay and Crescent City who are survivors of domestic abuse or stalking at home, according to Sean Rucker, an advocate with the shelter.

“Sometimes when they

are survivors, they leave with little to nothing,” Rucker said.

That’s where the shelter’s Christmas program comes in — individuals and families submit an application for gifts, clothes or food. Shelter staff shop for the individuals, and the goal is to get applicants something they enjoy for the holidays.

“There’s not always a lot left at the end of the month for the shiny new pair of shoes,” Rucker said. “We’re trying to get them a little something special.”

The past few years, the shelter’s helped 80 to 90 families, Rucker said. But this year is different — since many places where applications can be picked up are closed during the pandemic, just over 40 people have signed up so far.

“Up until this year, it grew every year,” Rucker said. “More and more people are just needing a little bit of a hand-up.”

That means the donations from Pelican Bay fill a pretty substantial chunk of the Christmas program’s need this year, Rucker said.

Still, the shelter is always accepting donations for its clients fleeing unsafe situations at home.

Toys, home products and some clothes are accepted at its location in Gold Beach. More information about the shelter is available online at www. oasisshelterhome.org/.

“It all adds up,” Rucker said.

of his mannerisms, he said.

Above all, Hartwick says he plans to keep teaching. Though he’s no longer in a school as a teacher or principal, he hopes he can teach kids in the community his story and how he kept going through deeply challenging times.

He points to an important lesson he’s learned

through his life as an example.

“If you’re alive, keep doing it,” he said.

across the border. We see that all the time because our nurses have to work with Curry County staff.

We have shared cases.

Their counts have risen quite a bit as well.”

Commissioner Roger Gitlin went a step further.

“My question has to do with the spike at Pelican Bay and within the community,” Gitlin said. “The impact of this virus appears to be less lethal, no new hospitalizations and certainly no new deaths.

People are contracting this and recovering from it from what appears to be a shortened quarantine period. My question is how this impacts our local business community, especially restaurants. In your discussions with the state is there any understanding that they allow any counties, especially border counties like ours, and all businesses, especially restaurants, to open up?”

Rehwaldt did his best to answer.

program, then spending some holiday seasons volunteering to wrap gifts, she stepped up to lead the effort this year after the organization’s previous leader passed away in late October.

That means things have been changing for the program: In addition to the COVID-19 pandemic, the transition in leadership has given organizers a later start than usual. While in previous years organizers have placed mittens on Christmas trees around town, that couldn’t happen his year.

“Because we had a late start, this is what we got,” Perez said.

Another change this year? The number of families applying for gifts from Santa’s Workshop.

Gifts are available to families who meet certain income requirements.

While Perez and other organization leaders expected that number to increase this year as more families find themselves facing unemployment from the pandemic’s shutdown, the effect has been the opposite.

“I think that a lot of us were expecting the numbers to be double,” Perez said.

Perez says this year Santa’s Workshop will see slightly fewer applications than in previous years, since the pandemic has made it more difficult to offer in-person sign up

Wild Rivers Community Foundation presents holiday grants Wild Rivers Community Foundation awarded $25,000 in Holiday Partnership grants this week to 21 nonprofit organizations, agencies and churches that provide thousands of children and adults in Curry and Del Norte counties with much-needed food, clothing, gifts and other services.

“These grants will support the work of many amazing organizations in our community that serve those who really need help, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic,” said WRCF Director Gina Zottola. “We are so blessed by these community efforts, and this partnership will touch more than 5,000 lives.”

A virtual celebration

of the holiday grants via Zoom is scheduled for 3 p.m. Dec. 9. Everyone is welcome to attend the celebration to hear the wonderful stories from each of the organizations. For information and a link to the Zoom celebration, call 707-465-1238.

This is the 13th year that WRCF has awarded holiday grants ranging from $250 to $2,500. The grants — funded by donations from family trusts, foundations, businesses and individuals — support programs that provide children with winter coats or Christmas presents, and holiday food for hungry families. The grants are also used for warm clothes for struggling veterans and the homeless, and support

services for abused or neglected children.

The Brookings Elks Lodge #1934 will use their grant to provide needy individuals and families with Christmas food baskets that provide a full meal and include a turkey. The Elks also received funding or in-kind donations from the Brookings Presbyterian Church, Salvation Army, U-Haul and community food drives. They anticipate serving about 1,500 people.

“With COVID-19, we expect an increase in the number of requests as some families are still struggling with limited employment and other challenges,” said Elks Lodge volunteer Johanne Broberg. “We will have a drive-up basket distribution on Dec.19-

Proposition 65 Public Warning The Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, commonly referred to as Proposition 65, requires the governor to publish a list of chemicals “known to the State of California” to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. It also requires California businesses to warn the public quarterly of potential exposures to these chemicals that result from their operations.

Providing safe and reliable service to all of our customers is a top priority for Pacific Power, and we want you to be aware of these substances so that you can reduce possible exposure.

Pacific Power uses chemicals in our operations that are “known to the State of California” to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Pacific Power uses materials, such as treated wooden utility poles, that contain chemicals “known to the State of California” to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Pacific Power provides proper care when handling all our operational materials. However, if you are at or near one of our facilities, you may be exposed to substances on the State of California’s list of substances known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.

Similarly, the Boys and Girls Club of the Yurok Tribe in Klamath will use their grant to host a driveup event during which families can pick up a wrapped gift for children and food supplies to help with holiday dinners. They hope to provide gifts for 100 children and meals for about 100 families.

“We would usually host a holiday family gathering and dinner for our club members, but due to COVID-19, we will not be able to do so this year,” said club Director Harold Jones.

Court Appointed Special Advocates of Del Norte will apply its grant to a Holiday Gift Giving/Making Memories program to support about 86 children placed in homes due to abuse or neglect, said Executive Director Christine Slette. Children will receive a warm blanket, stocking hat, a book and gift certificate donated by local businesses.

Gov. Newsom announces new COVID guidelines

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 11, 2020 | A9

COVID-19 restrictions could soon become stricter under new guidelines announced this week by Gov. Gavin Newsom.

At a press conference Thursday, Newsom said rising COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations could soon put the healthcare system at the breaking point. The new guidelines are in response to the increases number of people in the hospital and the threat of overwhelming the hospital system in California.

Under the new guidelines, a regional stay at home order will kick in when ICU capacity drops below 15 percent at any one of five regions in the state. Crescent City and Del Norte County are in the Northern California region along with Glenn, Humboldt, Lake, Lassen, Mendocino, Modoc, Shasta, Siskiyou, Tehama and Trinity counties.

According the Newsom, no region in the state currently meets the 15 percent threshold, but several are expected to new week.

According to the latest data released by Del Norte Public Health, there are no hospitalizations in Del Norte County.

If the stay at home order is implemented, residents are required to stay at home as much as possible and minimize mixing to reduce unnecessary exposure, while still being able to do important things like go to the doctor, buy groceries, pick up take out, go on a hike or worship outdoors.

K-12 schools that are already open can remain open and retailers can operate indoors at no more than 20 percent capacity to reduce exposure risk.

The order takes effect Saturday. If a region hits the threshold, it will have 24 hours to implement the stay at home order. Once a region moves into the stay at home status, it will be there for a minimum of three weeks. Counties can only come off the stay at home order once their ICU capacity projected four weeks outs reaches 15 percent.

“We are at a tipping point in our fight against the virus and we need to take decisive action now to prevent California’s hospital system from being overwhelmed in the coming weeks,” said Newsom. “By invoking a Stay at Home Order for regions where ICU capacity falls below 15 percent, we can flatten the curve as we’ve done before and reduce stress on our health care system. I’m clear-eyed that this is hard on all of us — especially our small businesses who are struggling to get by.

That’s why we leaned in to help our small business owners with new grants and tax relief to help us get through this month. If we stay home as much as possible, and wear masks when we have to go to the doctor, shop for groceries or go for a hike, California can come out of this in a way that saves lives and puts us on a path toward economic recovery.”

“We know what a strug-

gle this pandemic has been for so many California families, but our actions have saved countless lives,” said Dr. Mark Ghaly, California Health and Human Services secretary. “This targeted action will preserve vital ICU beds for people who need them — whether they’re COVID-19 patients or someone who has suffered a heart attack or a stroke.”

“Staying home for three weeks is a sacrifice, but if every Californian did that for a month, we could stop this disease in its tracks,” said Dr. Erica Pan, acting state public health officer.

“This public health order strikes the balance between saving lives, providing essential services that we all rely on and still allowing Californians to participate in lower-risk outdoor activities that are crucial for our physical and mental health.”

The terms of the Regional Stay at Home Order closely mirror the March order, with some variations.

What does the Regional Stay at Home Order do?

The Regional Stay at Home Order would be in effect for three weeks after the trigger and instructs Californians to stay at home as much as possible to limit the mixing with other households that can lead to COVID-19 spread.

It allows access to (including travel for) critical services and allows outdoor activities to preserve Californians’ physical and mental health. This limited closure will help stop the surge and prevent overwhelming regional ICU capacity.

In any region that triggers a stay at home order because it drops below 15 percent ICU capacity, all operations in the following sectors must be closed: • Indoor and outdoor playgrounds • Indoor recreational facilities • Hair salons and barbershops • Personal care services • Museums, zoos and aquariums • Movie theaters • Wineries • Bars, breweries and distilleries • Family entertainment centers • Cardrooms and satellite wagering • Limited services • Live audience sports • Amusement parks The following sectors will have additional modifications in addition to 100 percent masking and physical distancing: • Outdoor recreational facilities: Allow outdoor operation only without any food, drink or alcohol sales.

Additionally, overnight stays at campgrounds will not be permitted.

• Retail: Allow indoor operation at 20 percent capacity with entrance metering and no eating or drinking in the stores.

Additionally, special hours should be instituted for seniors and others with chronic conditions or compromised immune systems.

• Shopping centers: Allow indoor operation at

The Regional Stay at Home Order will be implemented regionally once there is less than 15 percent ICU capacity remaining in the designated region. After three weeks from the start of the Stay-at-Home Order, the following criteria would apply: 1.

End for a county in a region if the region’s ICU capacity projected out four weeks (from three weeks since the stay at home order started) is above or equal to 15 percent. Each county in the region would be assigned to a tier based on the Blueprint for a Safer Economy.

2.

Remain in effect in a county if the region’s ICU capacity projected out four weeks (from three weeks since the stay at home order started) is less than 15 percent. This would be assessed on a weekly basis.

Non-Essential Travel Lodging Except as otherwise required by law, no hotel or lodging entity in California shall accept or honor out of state reservations for non-essential travel, unless the reservation is for at least the minimum time period required for quarantine and the persons identified in the reservation will quarantine in the hotel or lodging entity until after that time period has expired.

Can people go outside?

Members of the same household are encouraged to maintain physical and mental health by safely going to a park, hike, walk or bike ride when safe to do so and socially distanced.

Californians are also encouraged to keep connected with loved ones virtually.

NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code.

If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction.

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