mid emergency concerns following the Los Angeles fires, Rialto City Council bolstered the city’s evacuation protocols by adopting the Genasys EVAC Evacuation Management Platform for $161,635 and identified problems with the city’s well system that may require as much as $1.5 million in federal and state grants to fix.

Recently, Southern California Edison (SCE) has come under fire for its alleged negligence regarding the Eaton fire, and this has prompted Rialto city officials to reconsider the city’s disaster preparedness, including static planning and water resiliency.

Before Genasys, “Rialto relied primarily on static evacuation planning and general broadcast alerts,” Tanya Williams, Rialto’s newly appointed city manager, said in an email.

Static evacuation planning refers to a fixed plan to evacuate people during an emergency where the procedures, designated exit routes and assembly points remain the same regardless of the conditions.

dynamic

evacuation planning allows for changes to be made according to the circumstances in realtime.

William’s said Rialto currently uses a “multi-platform approach” to emergencies.

She explained that the city ensures “real-time communication with residents,” through a “Telephone Emergency Notification System (TENS)” that alerts “impacted residents” through a phone call or text message.

The city also uses its social media accounts to update residents in addition to Nixle Alerts, “a public messaging system that sends emergency notifications via SMS and email,” Williams said.

However, Williams said the city recognized the need for a more dynamic system.

By adopting the new platform, city officials hope to “enhance situational awareness, evacuation coordination, and real-time decision making,” Williams said, adding that Genasys provides, “interactive mapping to identify safe evacuation routes and high-risk zones, allowing responders to adjust plans dynamically.”

ohn Solomon, a lifelong tutor and educator known for his passion and dedication, was presented with the Key to the District award in a standingroom-only crowd at Wednesday’s board meeting. The ceremony preceded presentations on the Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) mid-year report and district assessments.

Solomon, a California native born in Los Angeles and raised in Duarte, studied accounting at the University of Houston in Texas after graduating from Duarte High School, where he earned a “four-sport scholarship in track and field.”

Involved in leadership organizations as a member of the Delta Psi Phi business fraternity and former president of the National Association of Black Accountants (NABA), Solomon expected much of him-

self, his students and, especially, their parents.

“Inspired by Marva Collins, a pioneer in education, who founded the West Side prep school of Chicago to serve underserved African American youth,” said Board of Education President Dr. Stephanie E. Lewis, “he believed that for students to succeed, parents had to be actively engaged RUSD Board Meeting cont. on next pg.

- “Genasys enables zone-specific, multilingual alerts, ensuring critical information reaches all affected residents efficiently,” Williams said. “The platform streamlines communication between first responders, mutual aid agencies, and traffic control, improving overall evacuation execution.”

Beyond Genasys, city officials are taking additional steps to improve Rialto’s disaster preparedness, including an ongoing effort to upgrade the city’s water resiliency.

After a presentation of the Genasys platform, Mayor Pro Tem Ed Scott commented on Rialto’s water resiliency shortfall.

According to city officials, Rialto’s facilities are on separate circuits within SCEs powergrid and are proactively exploring permanent solutions due to recent fires and the possibility of an extended power outage.

- in their learning. Parents were not allowed to simply drop off their children . . . They had to stay and participate and support [their] child’s education.”

The water purveyors for Rialto include the West Valley Water District and Rialto Water Services.

According to Scott, there are 17 wells that fall within the Rialto Water Services service area. He said some may not “need to be retrofitted with generators.”

“We do not have generators on our well facilities in this city,” he said. “So, if our electricity were to be totally shut down, we wouldn’t have any water.”

“We might be able to get away with retrofitting less well sites based on water zones, because each area of the city is generally on one or more water zones, and you might be able to get away with only needing one per zone versus one per well,” Scott said.

Scott said in an email that if a total electrical shutdown occurred, the city “would have to rent generators and bring portable generators on site.”

Scott estimates the city will need to secure around “$1.5 million” in federal and state grants to purchase and install the generators needed.

Despite the system’s shortcomings, Williams explained that Rialto has met the needs of its “most critical facilities” in the past.

“Historically, when SCE has issued a Public Safety Power Shutoffs (PSPS) of an impacted circuit, the City has maintained 100% operational reliability through our storage, wells and pump stations on unimpacted circuits and/or mobile generators,” she said.

For example, West Valley Water District (WVWD) representative Socorro Pantaleon said in an email that “WVWD deploys portable generators to well sites as needed and has two stationary backup generators . . . to pump and deliver water for fire suppression . . . during extended power outages.”

“In addition,” she said, “WVWD has 72 million gallons of water storage in our reservoirs throughout our service area. This

However, he clarified that his estimate may fall short because it does not include—as he does not yet know—the number of wells that fall within the service area for the West Valley Water District.

Even so, “the City maintains water storage in our reservoirs to meet a maximum, plus fire flow for normal structure fires,” Williams said.

Inland Empire Community News (IECN) requested more information from Rialto Water Services and the West Valley Water District. Specifically, IECN asked for the number of wells in their respective service areas, in addition to the number of generators needed to strengthen Rialto’s disaster preparedness.

IECN has not received a response citing either the specific number of wells or how many would need generators.

Meeting

Solomon was unwavering in his commitment to improving lives through education. For 35 years, he tutored children in the region, participating in UCLA’s free summer math program, for example. But his dedication was not limited to young children and highschool students.

“When teachers could not pass their test and they couldn't get their certification, he tutored them until they [passed],” Dr. Lewis said.

As Dr. Lewis presented Solomon with the Key to the District award, the room erupted in applause. At the podium, he recalled an article that cited the difference between East and West, a distinction in attitudes and styles of education.

The American temptation is to say that “if the child cannot

learn, then the child has a problem,” Solomon said. “In the Asian community . . . if the child doesn’t learn, then I have a problem, and we have to take it from that standpoint.”

Jason Shirley, a former student, is a testament to Solomon’s commitment.

Solomon explained that he worked with Shirley one summer to increase his SAT scores, which sat 200 points below the minimum requirement to attend university.

They worked together and “Jason was 200 points over,” Solomon said.

Shirley then attended Fresno State University and was later drafted as a defensive tackle by the Cincinnati Bengals in 2008.

After the award presentation, Dr. Ingrid Lin and Dr. Manuel Burciaga presented on the district’s diagnostic assessments, which tracks student progress and performance and, by extension, informs instruction.

The i-Ready assessment for grades K-8 showed overall improvement from fall to winter,

with fewer students performing below expectations. The NWEA assessment for high school students reflected some increases in the percentage of 11th graders scoring in higher performance bands, but math remains an area of concern.

Following the district assessment, Dr. Kevin Hodgson, the academic agent overseeing special programs, presented the district’s LCAP mid-year report, “a three-year plan that describes the goals, actions, services, and expenditures” to support students and address educational priorities.

According to the report, several metrics for the LCAP 3year goal have “increased significantly,” including lower rates of suspension and an increase in “Graduation Rate” and “College and Career Indicators,” while most of the district’s goals have been fully implemented.

There are two upcoming community events regarding the LCAP. First, at Eisenhower High School on March 3, then at Rialto High School on April 7.

San Bernardino Appoints Third City Manager in a Year, Loses Rochelle Clayton to Barstow, Taps Retired Brea Leader

By Manny Sandoval

were lucky to have you.”

Clayton, who has more than 30 years of government experience, was officially named city manager of Barstow after a unanimous City Council vote there on Feb. 18. The city of Barstow issued a statement highlighting her extensive leadership background, including managing a $200 million budget as interim city manager of San Bernardino, leading homelessness policy negotiations, and overseeing infrastructure projects.

n yet another shift in city leadership, the San Bernardino City Council has appointed William “Bill” Gallardo as interim city manager, marking the city’s 17th city manager in 16 years–and the third in a year. The move comes just days after former acting city manager Rochelle Clayton was officially named the new city manager of Barstow.

During the Feb. 19 City Council meeting, Mayor Helen Tran acknowledged Clayton’s departure, calling it a significant loss for San Bernardino but a gain for Barstow. “I got news that our former acting city manager has been appointed as City Manager to the City of Barstow. It’s a loss for us, but a huge gain for Barstow.

Thank you for all of your service,” said Tran. Clayton was present in the audience with her family.

Councilmember Dr. Treasure Ortiz echoed that sentiment.

“I would like to thank Clayton for her service and time. It’s not always easy, and I appreciate everyone that steps up to the plate for the city of San Bernardino. I know your affected reach is going to be long-lasting in the city, and the level of integrity and camaraderie that you bring is going to be hard to replace. I wish you the best of luck; we

“It’s exciting to be a part of moving the city forward,” Clayton said in a statement.

“Having grown up riding my bike all over Barstow as a kid, it is beyond rewarding to return and lead this community into its next chapter!”

New Leadership in San Bernardino Following Clayton’s departure, the San Bernardino City Council voted unanimously on Feb. 21 to appoint Gallardo as interim city manager. Gallardo, who retired in December 2024 as city manager of Brea after a 35-year career, stepped out of retirement just two months later to serve San Bernardino temporarily.

“Bringing Bill Gallardo on board will ensure a smooth transition while the Council and I take the next steps to find our next City Manager,” said Mayor Tran.

Gallardo’s extensive experi-

ence in municipal leadership includes serving as Brea’s city manager from 2015 to 2024, as well as holding positions such as assistant city manager, finance director, and revenue manager. He holds a business degree from California State Polytechnic University, Pomona.

During the Feb. 21 special meeting, former council member Kim Calvin expressed concerns about the city’s frequent turnover in leadership.

“I cannot move forward without stating how disappointing it is for San Bernardino to be going through three city managers in the past year,” said Calvin.

“It is unfortunate that when we do have a good city manager working for us and they tell us exactly what we need to hear to move forward–we have council members who like to make it personal and disagree.”

Calvin further alleged that Councilmember Fred Shorett has repeatedly undermined city managers by insisting their role is simply to “keep the lights on.” “At least four times during my tenure, Councilmember Shorett has said that,” said Calvin. “He said it to interim acting city manager Tanya Romo as well.

We need to let the interim or acting city managers do their jobs.”

n Friday, February 21, 2025, at 8:17 p.m., the Rialto Police Department Communications Center received a report of a single-vehicle traffic collision. Officers arrived on the scene at approximately 8:20 p.m.

The Rialto Fire Department personnel administered life-saving measures to the passenger, an adult female, Rachel Martin, a 33-year-old resident of Rialto, who sustained life-threatening injuries. Martin was pronounced deceased at the scene at 8:25 p.m.

The driver, who fled following the collision, was apprehended and identified as Joshua Carde-

nas, a 28-year-old male resident of Rialto who suffered only minor injuries. The initial investigation indicates that Cardenas was driving a white 2021 Ford Mustang eastbound on Merrill Ave at over 85 mph.

Cardenas continued through the intersection at Cactus Ave and lost control of his vehicle.

Cardenas collided with multiple trees and came to rest in the westbound lanes. He fled the location and was positively identified by witnesses.

The investigation is ongoing, but there is evidence that Cardenas was under the influence of alcohol at the time of the collision, and speed is believed to be a factor.

ebruary is American Heart Month and cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in women and during pregnancies in the United States according to the National Institute of Health (NIH). One in three women in the United States have some form of a CVD. Even though up to 90% of women have at least one cardiovascular risk factor, there remains a major gap in awareness, recognition, and appropriate management of CVD risk. It is known that gender-specific effects such as lower levels of estrogen can increase cardiovascular risks in younger women.

For many years, what we knew about CVD and heart attacks was based upon clinical trials that largely studied the experiences of men. In recent years, women have been included in more studies which has shed light on how they experience heart conditions and heart attacks differently.

Being informed on how heart conditions affect women differently is essential in understanding CVD risk factors, symptoms, prevention and treatment. Here’s some main differences to be aware of: For heart attacks symptoms, women may experience symptoms beyond the classic chest

pain, such as nausea, shortness of breath, fatigue, dizziness, upper back or jaw pain, and stomach discomfort.

Women are more likely to have "silent" heart attacks, meaning they may not recognize the signs or may experience milder symptoms that are mistaken for stress, indigestion or the flu. Instead of large, obstructive blockages in major arteries as commonly seen in men’s, women often develop microvascular disease, where smaller arteries are affected, making it harder to detect blockages with standard tests.

Estrogen provides some protection against heart disease before menopause, but after menopause, the risk increases sharply, and symptoms may change due to fluctuating hormone levels.

When I speak to women in my medical practice and in the community, I urge them to stay on top of their annual health visit and lab work. These annual health screenings are vital to understanding the condition of your health. Working with your physician, you can create a plan to prevent and manage health conditions that can put you at risk for heart disease, stroke or heart attack. When we are aware of how CVD affects women differently, we can work together to live longer and healthier.

Nearly 500 Operators Issued Violation Notices for Non-compliance of Warehouse Rule, AQMD says

San Bernardino Valley and Regional Partners Celebrate Completion of Santa Ana River Enhanced Recharge Project Community News

S

an Bernardino Valley, in partnership with Western Water, City of Riverside Public Utilities, and San Bernardino Valley Water Conservation District, proudly marked the completion of the Santa Ana River Enhanced Recharge Phase 1-B Project with a ribboncutting and dedication ceremony today.

The $55 million infrastructure investment made by local water agencies significantly enhances regional water supply resilience by more than doubling local groundwater recharge capacity.

“This project is a shining example of what regional collaboration can accomplish,” said T. Milford Harrison, Board President of San Bernardino Valley. “By investing in our local water supply with innovative solutions, we are making our region more resilient to drought while securing reliable water for our grandchildren and great grandchildren.”

The Santa Ana River Enhanced Recharge Project will allow up to 80,000 acre-feet of stormwater per year to be captured and stored in the local aquifer, creating a critical supply of groundwater for future

drought years. The project includes 20 new recharge basins, improved flood control structures, and inter-basin conveyance infrastructure, ensuring local water resources are managed efficiently.

In addition to improving water supply reliability, the project took an innovative approach to environmental compliance.

To secure key state and federal permits, areas between the recharge basins will be restored and preserved for endangered species habitat, like the San Bernardino kangaroo rat and Least Bell’s vireo.

“This site has long been a critical part of our watershed, especially the Santa Ana River alluvial fan,” Heather Dyer, CEO/ General Manager for San Bernardino Valley. “By leveraging this land for both water storage and ecosystem restoration, we are ensuring that both our human communities and the native ecosystems benefit for generations to come.”

ties,” said Ana Gonzalez, the executive director of the Jurupa Valley-based Center for Community Action and Environmental Justice (CCAEJ).

Gonzalez believes stronger enforcement is crucial for the rule’s effectiveness. She argues that penalties alone aren’t enough to drive meaningful change people want to see.

Many of these violations are concentrated in cities like Ontario and Fontana, which have over 40 violations according to AQMD’s data. Other areas, including Jurupa Valley, Chino and Rialto, have also become hotspots for violations.

“For example, if you do not comply with the second warning, your operations need to be shut down until you comply with a plan to keep people safe,” Gonzalez said. “It should be just like any other code compliance consequence when businesses violate city codes.”

Officially known as the Warehouse Actions and Investments to Reduce Emissions (WAIRE) program, the rule targets facilities larger than 100,000 square feet and incentivizes warehouse operators to reduce emissions through a points system. Operators earn points by using electric vehicles and installing solar panels to curb pollution from trucks and mobile equipment used in warehouse operations.

Paul Granillo, with the Inland Empire Economic Partnership (IEEP), says growing compliance shows that operators are adapting to the warehouse rule.

However, he remains concerned about the availability of clean trucks and equipment and the potential impact of regulation on local businesses and the economy.

AQMD reports that many operators have come into compliance, but also told KVCR and The Frontline Observer that violators could face fines. The agency emphasized that its first efforts will focus on reaching settlements that can include penalties or environmental projects. If no agreement is reached, cases may go to court. So far, AQMD says no repeat offenders have been identified.

Environmental advocates are concerned the system still allows operators to get away with addressing warehouse pollution by opting to pay fines, instead of working to implement technology to reduce emissions.

“This does very little to ensure protections of our most vulnerable communi-

“We’re all being asked to run a marathon, but only a few of us are really in shape to run a marathon,” said Granillo. “So, we need to be realistic about how we go about making sure that we have as clean air as we deserve, but also that we don't overburden businesses and people.”

The Indirect Source Rule for warehouses was adopted in 2021 after years of discussion and planning by AQMD. Last August, AQMD also adopted an indirect source rule for railyards and is currently considering a voluntary-based rule for the ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles.

This story was originally published through KVCR Public Media.

The Santa Ana River Enhanced Recharge Project ensures that more local water is captured during wet years and stored underground for future drought conditions— a key strategy in preparing Southern California for long-term water challenges.

UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDING AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. A public auction sale to the highest bidder for cash, cashier's check drawn on a state or national bank, check drawn by state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, or savings association, or savings bank specified in Section 5102 to the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state, will be held by duly appointed trustee. The sale will be made, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by the Deed of Trust, with interest and late charges thereon, as provided in the note(s), advances, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, interest thereon, fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee for the total amount (at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale) reasonably estimated to be set forth below. The amount may be greater on the day of sale.

BENEFICIARY MAY ELECT TO BID LESS THAN THE TOTAL AMOUNT DUE. Trustor(s): SAMUEL J RANDOLPH IV, AN UNMARRIED MAN Recorded: 8/21/2019 as Instrument No. 20190288276 of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of SAN BERNARDINO County, California; Date of Sale: 3/18/2025 at 9:00 AM Place of Sale: At the North West Entrance in the Courtyard of the Chino Municipal Court, located at 13260 Central Avenue, Chino, CA 91710 Amount of unpaid balance and other charges: $395,006.62 The purported property address is: 687 SOUTH MANDARIN LANE, RIALTO, CA 92376 Assessor's Parcel No.: 0128462-53-0-000 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 800-280-2832 for information regarding the trustee's sale or visit this internet website http://www.qualityloan.com, using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-24995494-AB. Information

about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the internet website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an "eligible tenant buyer," you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an "eligible bidder," you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call 619645-7711, or visit this internet website http://www.qualityloan.com, using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-24995494-AB to find the date on which the trustee's sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee.

Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee's sale.

Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee's sale. If you think you may qualify as an "eligible tenant buyer" or "eligible bidder," you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase. NOTICE TO PROSPECTIVE OWNEROCCUPANT: Any prospective owner-occupant as defined in Section 2924m of the California Civil Code who is the last and highest bidder at the trustee's sale shall provide the required affidavit or declaration of eligibility to the auctioneer at the trustee's sale or shall have it delivered to QUALITY LOAN SERVICE CORPORATION by 5 p.m. on the next business day following the trustee's sale at the address set forth in the below signature block.

NOTICE OF TRUSTEE'S SALE TS No. CA-24-998003SH Order No.: 2529886CAD YOU ARE IN DEFAULT UNDER A DEED OF TRUST DATED 4/17/2006. UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDING AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. A public auction sale to the highest bidder for cash, cashier's check drawn on a state or national bank, check drawn by state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, or savings association, or savings bank specified in Section 5102 to the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state, will be held by duly appointed trustee. The sale will be made, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by the Deed of Trust, with interest and late charges thereon, as provided in the note(s), advances, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, interest thereon, fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee for the total amount (at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale) reasonably estimated to be set forth below.

The amount may be greater on the day of sale. BENEFICIARY MAY ELECT TO BID LESS THAN THE TOTAL AMOUNT DUE. Trustor(s): ROBERTO SALDANA, A MARRIED MAN AS HIS SOLE AND SEPARATE PROPERTY Recorded: 4/21/2006 as Instrument No. of Official 2006-0274439 Records in the office of the Recorder of SAN BERNARDINO County, California; Date of Sale: 3/24/2025 at 1:00PM Place of Sale: At the main (south) entrance to the City of Chino Civic Center, located at 13220 Central Ave., Chino, CA 91710 Amount of unpaid balance and other charges: $97,651.67 The purported property address is: 1332 NORMAN RD, COLTON, CA 92324 Assessor's Parcel No.: 0160-234-04-0-000 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 916-939-0772 for information regarding the trustee's sale or visit this internet website http://www.qualityloan.com, using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-24-998003-SH. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the internet website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an "eligible tenant buyer," you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an "eligible bidder," you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call 619645-7711, or visit this internet website http://www.qualityloan.com, using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-24-998003-SH to find the date on which the trustee's sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee's sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee's sale. If you think you may qualify as an "eligible tenant buyer" or "eligible bidder," you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

NOTICE TO PROSPECTIVE OWNEROCCUPANT: Any prospective owner-occupant as defined in Section 2924m of the California Civil Code who is the last and highest bidder at the trustee's sale shall provide the required affidavit or declaration of eligibility to the auctioneer at the trustee's sale or shall have it delivered to QUALITY LOAN SERVICE CORPORATION by 5 p.m. on the next business day following the trustee's sale at the address set forth in the signature block. below NOTICE TO PROSPECTIVE POST-SALE OVER BIDDERS: For post-sale information in accordance with Section 2924m(e) of the California Civil Code, use file number CA-24998003-SH and call (866) 645or login to: 7711 http://www.qualityloan.com.

Highland Costco Gas Station Now Open, Offering Kirkland Fuel at $4.09 per Gallon

Pic ‘N’ Save Bargains & Groceries Returns This Spring With Four New Southern California Stores Community News

P

ic ‘N’ Save Bargains & Groceries (PNSBG) is making a highly anticipated debut to Southern California this spring. After nearly a decade since its acquisition by Big Lots, the iconic discount store Pic ‘N’ Save Bargains is being revived under new ownership and a refreshed concept, Pic ‘N’ Save Bargains & Groceries.

Led by President and Founder Mark J. Miller (former CEO of the original Pic ‘N’ Save), along with a team of investors, PNSBG is bringing a unique, elevated shopping experience to familiar locations once occupied by 99Cent Only Stores.

Drivers fuel up at the newly opened Costco gas station in Highland at 10:20 a.m. on Friday, Feb. 21, 2025.

C

ostco’s highly anticipated gas station in Highland officially opened to the public on Thursday, Feb. 20, 2025, marking a major addition to the city’s expanding commercial district.

The 30-plus-pump station, located at 27890 Greenspot Rd., offers Kirkland Signature gasoline at $4.09 per gallon for regular and $4.49 for premium as of Friday.

With its larger fueling area and parking lot, the Highland location may alleviate congestion at the San Bernardino Costco, where long lines and heavy traf-

fic have become the norm.

However, some customers have noted that while the lot is more spacious, the entrance and exit points appear tighter than expected.

The gas station is part of the new Highland Costco development (which was publicly announced in September 2023), which spans 19.74 acres within the Greenspot Village & Marketplace.

The retail warehouse is set to open on Saturday, March 8, 2025, bringing additional shopping options to the region.

Costco is still hiring for the location, with applications available at Costco Careers.

The store’s debut comes as Costco remains in the national spotlight for its decision to uphold its Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives, a move that has sparked both praise and criticism in recent weeks.

As operations ramp up in Highland, the new station is poised to become a key fueling destination for residents and commuters, offering Costco’s competitive gas prices in a rapidly growing commercial hub—just weeks ahead of the store’s grand opening on March 8.

The newly reimagined Pic ‘N’ Save Bargains & Groceries will continue its legacy of offering quality, brand-name products at unbeatable prices.

In addition to its core selection of home goods, general merchandise, and treasure hunt closeouts, the store will also feature a variety of produce including fresh milk, eggs, deli products, and groceries.

This expanded range of offerings ensures that Pic ‘N’ Save Bargains & Groceries can meet all of its customers’ shopping needs in one convenient location.

“While we’re bringing back the same commitment to unbeatable bargains, we’re also offering a wider variety of products that will make Pic ‘N’ Save Bargains & Groceries a true one-stop shop for everyday essentials,” said Mark J. Miller, President and Founder. “From

treasure hunt to fresh food, we’re focused on creating community stores that are affordable, convenient and fun to shop.”

In keeping with the tradition of 99Cent Only Stores, Pic ‘N’ Save Bargains & Groceries is dedicated to delivering exceptional service by empowering employees and fostering strong community relationships.

Each location is carefully designed with the local community in mind, ensuring that every store reflects its unique culture and needs.

In the coming months, four new Pic ‘N’ Save Bargains & Groceries locations will open throughout Southern California, with locations set to open at: 34660 Monterey Ave., Palm Desert, CA 92211 975 S E St., San Bernardino, CA 92408 9255 Sierra Ave., Fontana, CA 93335 7860 Norwalk Blvd., Whittier, CA 90606 To enhance the shopping experience, Pic ‘N’ Save Bargains & Groceries is offering a free Loyalty Program that rewards customers with points for every purchase. These points can be redeemed for in-store discounts and special offers throughout the year.
