Benefit Concert Saturday For Julian High With Country Star Coffey Anderson

QQ

Goes Down In Flames

by Michael Hart

The fate of the Julian Cuyamaca Fire Protection District was dealt a severe blow in Tuesdays balloting. Proposition QQ - which supporters had hoped would fund the district into the future was defeated with nearly 60% of those voting saying NO thank you. (As of Sunday night no=744, Yes=579) - the Registrar of Voters has yet to finish counting mail-in and provisional ballots (356,000). The defeat means if the district is to continue it will have to operate on the $50 benefit fee currently in place. It does not mean the district will dissolve, yet! That will be determined early next year when the Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) administers the vote of the community that was required by the “Protest” filed at their October meeting, the signatures have been verified and notice was given out on Tuesday that the “Protest” would move forward. When questioned LAFCO representative said “the vote on QQ would not keep the protest from moving forward, and no mechanism was available in the process to stop the community vote. In the mean time a new board will be seated as Mike Menghini and Eva Hatch garnered the top two vote totals. The new board will have to wait like the rest of us for the final decision on dissolving the district before it can actually effect any changes. If Dissolution goes through then they will have to serve as care-takers during the process. Then have to sign the district over to the County Fire Authority. A process that should be completed, depending on the community vote, by early summer. Borrego Springs Fire District also had a ballot measure to increase their “Parcel Tax” (Proposition PP) which required a 2/3 vote for approval. It was not approved with only a 55% yes vote. Duncan D. Hunter was returned to congress in the 50th district with 52% over Amar Campa-Najjar(47%). In the State Senate voters returned Brian Jones (55%) to his 38th district seat over Jeff Griffith(44%). In the 71st Assembly District Randy Voepel(62%) returns to Sacramento as challenger James Elia(37%) came up short. The Palomar Community College Board will be represented with Norma Miyamoto and Mark R. Evilsizer. The Julian High and Elementary boards will remain as all members ran without opposition. In Borrego Springs Unified the winners where Judy K. Coyle and Valeen Szabo. Warner Unified: Jeannean Rombal, PJ Stoneburner, Terry L. Cox. Palomar Health Board will have: Linda Carol Greer, Richard C. Engel, Laurie Edwards-Tate and John Clark. The County wide voting turnout was 45.2% of all registered voters, State wide the turnout was 42.6%. A final tally will not be certified with the Secretary of State until early December (7th).

There will be two seatings: first one at 5:30 then a second show at 7:30 in the Julian High School Theater. Tickets for either show id $15.00 per person.

(Family Features) Disasters such as fires, hurricanes, floods and other emergency situations are all too common these days. In fact, about 4 out of 5 Americans live in counties hit by weather events since 2007, according to disaster declaration data from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). That illustrates how these events can impact nearly everyone and the importance of having a plan. This is particularly true for older people and people with disabilities. Health issues, mobility concerns and use of assistive devices can create additional challenges during emergencies. However, there are simple steps everyone can take to prepare now for what may come later. * Discuss your plan. Talk about preparedness with friends,
