District 2 race

Turnboo, Pimlott top vote-getters in close contest Dylan Svoboda Staff writer Business owner George Turnboo and Cal Fire Director Ken Pimlott are frontrunners to battle it out in November on the general election ballot for the El Dorado County Board of Supervisors District 2 seat.

The District 2 race, with seven candidates

running, remains the most hotly contested county supervisor race this election season.

Neither candidate was close to the required 50% plus one necessary to win the election outright. The counts indicated that with 26.66% of the votes, Turnboo led the way ahead of Pimlott’s 22.75%, a difference of just 429 votes, according to election

George Turnboo results released by the El Dorado County Elections Department late Tuesday evening.

Ken Pimlott But the race wasn’t limited to just the top two contenders.

Turnboo and Pimlott

narrowly led stiff competition from former supervisor Ray Nutting and Cameron Park Community Services District board member Felicity Carlson.

Nutting and Carlson have received 20.68% and 20.62% of the vote respectively, leaving them just a couple hundred votes behind second-place finisher Pimlott.

El Dorado Hills Community Services District General Manager Kevin Loewen, Libertarian Party of El Dorado County Chairman Tyler Kuskie and write-in candidate Chris Cockrell, a local business owner, also ran for the seat.

The three bottommost candidates are polling at less than 5% of the vote. n

Unofficial March 3 primary results in the race to fill the District 3 seat on the El Dorado County Board of Supervisors show Wendy Thomas with a substantial vote count lead over opponent Brian DeBerry.

The former Placerville mayor is nearly 1,900 votes ahead of DeBerry, according to the latest tally from the El Dorado County Elections Department, which was released just before midnight Tuesday. She

has received 60.36% percent of the vote to DeBerry’s 39.64% percent, the count shows.

“I would like to express my deepest thanks to our community for entrusting me with the challenges and opportunities of El Dorado County,” Thomas wrote in a statement. “It is a privilege I don’t take lightly and I am looking forward to taking the rest of the year to continue to build relationships and a deeper understanding of county issues.”

District 3 encompasses Placerville,

Diamond Springs, El Dorado and Camino.

Candidates must have more than 50 percent of all votes to win outright. Absent a majority, the two top candidates would move on to face off in November on the general election ballot.

By exceeding 50% of the vote, Thomas can avoid a November runoff election. The two other county board of supervisor races look as if a runoff will be necessary. n

Men fork out hefty fines for poaching trophy deer Pat Lakey Staff writer They would have been better off framing a bunch of thousand-dollar bills and mounting them on the wall of their den or study — or wherever they had planned to display the trophy deer they illegally killed in El Dorado County.

Two men convicted in the local Superior Court of baiting game and poaching —and ordered to fork out hefty fines stemming from recent legislation regarding

“As more and more … see poaching convictions with these enhanced penalties, we hope they will be deterred from poaching the largest deer out of these local herds.”

— David Bess, California Department of Fish and Wildlife deputy director

the taking of trophy animals — will be paying a total of $37,500 for the illegal slaying of the deer, in two separate cases.

And, for the defendants, it could have been worse. Under a law that passed in 2017, the court may fine as much as $50,000 for the taking of deer, elk, pronghorn antelope,

bighorn sheep and wild turkey if the animal possesses attributes that could classify it as being a trophy.

The most recent case involved a Granite Bay man who owns property in Pilot Hill, land where Myron Barry Woltering, 66, was observed during the 2018 deer hunting season throwing

out grains and alfalfa, along with providing salt licks, to lure deer to the area. He didn’t know he was under surveillance by wardens with the California Fish and Wildlife Service, who watched as he repeatedly administered the baiting; wardens later would find a “very large, trophy class 6

by 4 (point) buck” that was poached with the use of a bow and arrow in his possession.

The find was made as a result of a search warrant served against Woltering’s home and property, according to the DFW. Woltering on Feb. 21 faced Judge Mark Ralphs in the Dept. 7 courtroom in Placerville, where he was placed on three years probation, told he must surrender his hunting equipment and promise not n

Dorothy Dolores Cherney

July 16, 1931-Feb. 8, 2020

Dorothy Dolores Cherney of Somerset passed away peacefully on Saturday, Feb. 8, 2020. She was surrounded by her family and loved ones at her home. She died of congestive heart failure at the age of 88.

She was a wife and a mother to four children. She leaves behind her husband, Ray Cherney of Somerset; her daughters Valerie Broch of Colorado Springs, Colo., Lisa Cherney of Woodland and her son Jeffrey Cherney of Rancho Cordova. Her younger son, Lance Cherney of Cameron Park, preceded her and passed in May 2018.

Dorothy was born in Milwaukee, Wis. Due to difficult times during the Depression, she and her two sisters were placed in an orphanage and separated. This was an extremely harsh environment, so much so that at the early age of 10, she and a friend tried to escape, saving their meager meals to eat later. They hoped to hop on a passing freight train going anywhere just to escape the orphanage, but they sent the dogs out after them and they were caught and severely punished.

Later, she and her two sisters were placed in a foster home. She attended school with honors.

Later, more tragedy struck, when her foster-mother passed away. She took on the duties of mother, cooking, cleaning and taking care of her younger sisters.

She met her husband Ray at a high school football game where he was cheering for the opposite team.

Every time he stood and cheered for the rival team she would hit him on the back of his head. Later at the gym dance, Ray asked her to dance providing she would not hit him anymore.

Dorothy grew up in Wisconsin and graduated from Marinette High School in 1949. She attended college briefly until she moved to Southern California in 1951, following the love of her life, her husband of 70 years, Ray Cherney.

They were married in Los Angeles, Calif., on Feb. 24, 1951 and although Dorothy never finished college, in addition to being a wife and mother, she had many passions she actively pursued on her own throughout her lifetime.

Dorothy was an accomplished painter, interior decorator, seamstress, writer and world traveler.

Dorothy had an eye for things of beauty and she loved to explore and enjoy life. She was known for her beautiful paintings, resulting in her becoming art chairman for the Granada Hills Women’s Club.

Known also for her ability to sew almost anything from clothes to curtains, she became in demand to design and sew costumes for many of the local stage shows. She enjoyed writing, and traveling was a shared passion with her husband Ray. She planned trips in detail, opting to not be a tourist, but a traveler of the world. They first traveled with their children, seeing most of the 50 states and then when they became empty-nesters they traveled most of the European continent and the Orient.

Dorothy was loved by many and will be missed dearly. She was a talented woman admired by others. In spite of Dorothy’s humble beginnings, she strived to have a rich, full life. She will be remembered for her beautiful paintings, her love of dancing, being an endless source of entertainment and an inspiration to all who come from humble beginnings.

Memorial services are pending and as per her wishes, her body will be donated to research.

John E. Chapman

April 6, 1930-March 1, 2020

Mr. John Ernest Chapman was born on April 6, 1930, in Des Moines, Iowa, the son of Dr. (Rev.) Deane Edwin Chapman and Ruth LaBelle Strawn Chapman. John passed away on March 1, 2020, in Carmichael, Calif., due to stroke complications.

As the son of a Methodist minister, John grew up in various towns across Iowa. He enlisted in the Air Force, rising to the rank of T. Sgt. during the Korean War. While on active duty, John was assigned to a Jeep tactical air unit in South Korea as a radio repairman. He later served as a member of the inspector general team. John met his wife-to-be, Lucy Maxine Maness, while they were both on active duty in the Air Force. They were married in Des Moines, Iowa, on Oct. 12, 1952, by his father, Rev. Deane Chapman.

After leaving the Air Force in 1954, John moved his family across the country, working as a college student, engineer, and ultimately as a traveling salesman/account manager for various telephone equipment suppliers. John’s four children grew up in California’s Silicon Valley. Later, John and Lucy moved to the Chicago area for several years before returning to California to build their forever home in Placerville. John was briefly transferred to Hawaii, but returned to Placerville where they remained for over 25 years. Health challenges led to selling their home and then moving to Folsom. John ultimately moved to Sacramento.

John enjoyed photography, working with stained glass, ham radio and coin collecting. He loved to wear silly hats (although he donated 90 to the UC Davis Children’s Cancer Ward) and always had a joke ready to tell.

John was preceded in death by his parents, his son, Gary J. Chapman, and his wife of over 55 years. John is survived by his two sisters, Mary Ann Chapman of New York City and Elizabeth Guyeska (spouse John) of Columbia, S.C.; his three daughters, Cynthia L.

McClintock and Kennedy on to November election ■

McClintock leading with 54% of the vote

Dylan Svoboda Staff writer Republican incumbent Tom McClintock and Democratic candidate Brynne Kennedy will head to the general election ballot in November in the race for California’s 4th Congressional District.

McClintock, who has held the seat since 2008, has received 54% of the vote and Kennedy, founder the software company Topia, has received about 36% of the vote. McClintock garnered just over 100,000 votes while Kennedy has pulled in more than 67,000 votes.

Four other candidates challenged McClintock as well, though each finished with less than 5% of the vote. Republican Julianne Benzel finished third with 7,686 votes, Republican Jamie Byers finished with 3,262 votes, Republican Jacob Thomas had 3,042 votes and independent Robert Lawton received 2,979 votes.

The 63-year-old congressman thanked the folks of the 4th Congressional District for what’s now 12 years of support at the ballot box.

“I am deeply grateful to the people of California’s Gold Country and Sierra Nevada for their vote of confidence in yesterday’s primary election. Once again, they have spoken clearly for individual liberty, constitutionally limited government and

secure borders.

“The voters of the Fourth District shine as a beacon of hope against the socialist policies that are destroying California and threatening our nation. I couldn’t be prouder to stand with them and to stand with the President as we continue our work to restore America’s prosperity, security and greatness.”

The 35-year-old challenger also expressed her gratitude to supporters.

“November will be a choice between a successful businessperson who sets partisanship aside to put our community first and a career politician who has repeatedly surrendered to the demands of party bosses and big moneyed, special interests,” said Kennedy in a statement.

“Our campaign is for everyone who has been left behind or ignored by Tom McClintock. It’s for Republicans, Democrats and Independents who share our belief that a representative’s job is to work for everyone — not

just the people who fund them.”

El Dorado County voters didn’t stray too far from districtwide results. About 52.3% of county voters supported McClintock on first count while 38.66% gave their vote to Kennedy. No other candidate got more than 4% of the vote in the county.

Statewide, there are likely millions of ballots left to count, according to political data analyst Paul Mitchell.

As of Wednesday there were still about 15,000 mail ballots to be counted in El Dorado County, according to elections officer Bill O’Neill. The department is aiming to count about 98-99 percent of the ballots by Friday evening, he said.

The 4th Congressional District encompasses most of the central portion of California, from the Sierra to just east of Fresno.

The general election will be held Nov. 3.

Vote counts are current as of press time. Updates will be posted online accordingly.

“My feet hurt so bad after sitting I could barely take the first few steps. I have had 11 treatments and no longer feel sharp or shooting pains and most of the tingling is gone. I now have full balance and can walk without pain. As Dr. Mooney explained the treatment is not painful, nothing uncomfortable, and is actually very relaxing.” – Neuropathy Pain Patient John Mooney, DC at Premier Healthcare will do a neuropathy severity examination to determine the extent of the nerve damage for only $47.

Residents nix local measures Sole measure approved by voters to fund snow removal, road maintenance in Gilmore Vista Road Zone of Benefit

■

Dawn Hodson Staff writer El Dorado County voters faced a long list of local taxes, bond measures and one statewide bond measure in Tuesday’s election, with all but one going down to defeat.

While 10,000 votes have yet to be counted, according to Registrar of Voters Bill O’Neill, these are the preliminary figures as of Wednesday: Measure A failed, receiving only 15,346 (37.5%) yes votes and 25,593 (62.5%) no votes. The measure required 55% voter approval to pass and would have authorized $120 million in bonds for improvements to El Dorado Union High School District schools. It would have added approximately $16 per $100,000 to residents’ home’s assessed value.

Measure B needed two-thirds of the vote to pass but only gathered 1,203 (58.6%) yes votes and 850 (41.4%) no votes. The measure would have implemented an annual $52 special parcel tax to benefit the Lake Valley Fire Protection District with the money going toward improving fire protection and suppression and emergency medical services.

Measure C was shot down with 247 (46.7%) votes for and 282 (53.3%) votes against it — a twothirds vote was needed to pass.

The measure would have levied a special tax no higher than $8 per parcel annually with the revenues used to improve the Kelsey Pioneer Cemetery.

Measure E needed 55% voter approval to pass but lost big anyway, garnering 14,047 (32.7%) yes votes and 28,927 (67.3%) no votes. The $650 million bond measure would have raised an average of $52 million annually for the Los Rios Community College District with revenues used for repairs, improvements, job training and programs at the American River, Cosumnes River, El Dorado, Folsom Lake and Sacramento City college campuses.

The measure would have cost property owners under 2 cents per $100 of their home’s assessed value.

Measure G also went down to defeat with only 3,640 (38.3%) yes votes and 5,859 (61.7%) no votes

on a measure that needed 55% to pass. The $75 million proposed bond would have cost property owners about 3 cents per $100 of their home’s assessed value and would have gone toward health and safety improvements to the Rescue Union School District.

Measure H, a $29.9 million bond measure that would have upgraded school facilities in the Black Oak Mine Unified School District, attracted 1,720 (42%) yes votes and 2,371 (57.9%) no votes in a contest that required 55% voter approval to pass. The measure would have cost property owners about 4.9 cents per $100 of their home’s assessed value.

Measure J is the sole measure that did pass, garnering the twothirds vote needed to qualify. Yes votes were 21 (67.7%) and no votes were 10 (32.3%). The measure will implement an annual $270 special tax on each improved parcel and $120 on each unimproved parcel of land within the Gilmore Vista Road Zone of Benefit to replace the existing assessments of $170 and $70. The money will be used for snow removal, road improvements and maintenance.

Measure K failed; it would have implemented an annual $450 special parcel tax within the Fernwood Cothrin Ranch Road Zone of Benefit.

Designed to replace an existing $150 tax and needing passage by two-thirds of voters in the zone, yes votes were 144 (54.8%) and no votes were 119 (45.3%). Revenue from the measure would have been used toward road improvements and maintenance services.

Measure L, the Lynx Trail Measure, came short of two-thirds of the vote with 25 (53.2%) voting no and 22 (46.8%) voting yes. The measure would have implemented an annual $500 special tax on each parcel of real property within the zone, an increase from the current $300 tax. The additional funds would have gone toward road and maintenance services.

Measure M did not pass with a total of 944 (46.1%) votes for the measure and 1,105 (53.9%) against. The measure would have ■

EL DORADO COUNTY CHAMBER OF COMMERCE’S

Voice of Business 542 Main St. • Placerville, CA 95667 • (530) 621-5885 • www.eldoradocounty.org

UCAN Chamber leaders meet with Legislators to advance 2019 State Policy Agenda On February 25, over 60 local chamber leaders presented UCAN’s 2019 State Policy Agenda to state legislators: Assemblymembers Frank Bigelow, Ken Cooley and Kevin Kiley and Senator Jim Nielsen, all of whom expressed support for UCAN’s efforts and appreciation of UCAN’s policy positions.

With gains by Democrats in both the Assembly and the Senate, it is increasingly important for business-oriented interests like UCAN to engage with relatively pro-business Moderate Democrats. To gain greater insights into the “Mod Dem” caucus, UCAN invited Sacramento political consultant David Townsend to speak to the assembled business leaders. Townsend has advised the Mod Dem Caucus for several years and informed UCAN chamber leaders that many of the new legislators must establish relationships with their constituents in their local districts and, as a result, local chambers of commerce have a unique opportunity to amplify the voice of small business in the legislature.

Elk Grove Chamber leaders met a few weeks later with State Senator Richard Pan and his staff at his State Capitol office. Mr. Townsend, among others indicated the Senate may be the more moderate of the two legislative houses during 2019-20 legislature so establishing relationships with moderate Democrats like Sen. Pan are crucial. Sen. Pan appreciated the visit and he and his staff were especially interested to hear from UCAN members’ their positions with respect to the Dynamex decision.

At the recommendation of Assemblyman Ken Cooley, leaders from UCAN chambers also met with Lt. Governor Eleni Kounalakis at her office in the State Capitol.. Local chamber leaders presented the Lt. Governor with the 2019 UCAN State Policy Agenda and reviewed early bill positions on taxes, economic development and Dynamex. Kounalakis, a Sacramento area resident, encouraged UCAN leaders to continue to engage members of the legislature and shared her priorities relative to economic development and small business – which include working with Governor Newsom to open California to additional foreign capital investment.

UCAN Chambers focused efforts on Water Tax and AB 5 While the UCAN Chambers engaged on a host of bills, we chose to focus our efforts on two priority bills: Water Tax/SB 200 (Monning) Do we need both sentences? Instead of a surcharge on water bills, the final version of the bill tapped carbon tax/cap and trade funds to create the California Safe Drinking Water Fund. The UCAN Chambers were the only local chamber of commerce group included in a coalition organized by the Association of California Water Agencies (ACWA) to oppose the water tax.

Dynamex/AB 5 (Gonzalez), sought to codify the California Supreme Court’s ruling narrowing the definition of independent contracts, dominated much of the 2019 legislative session and occupied a big chunk of the news cycle.

The Dynamex decision concerned a complaint filed by truck drivers against a trucking company that miscategorized the drivers as independent contractors rather than employees. Unfortunately, the court chose to apply the ruling to all businesses in the state and significantly narrowed the definition of an independent contractor.

Many individual groups – such as physicians and insurance agents – lobbied Assemblymember Gonzalez for special “carve outs” and the big prize for organized labor, sponsors of the bill, were those independent contractors engaged in the so called “gig” economy – Uber, Lyft and other on-demand “app-based” services.

Meanwhile, small businesses dependent upon independent contractors to provide a flexible workforce were not well represented in the debate.

Leadership El Dorado Class 13 Helping to create learning space at Wakamatsu Farms Garrett Gust, the lead person on developing the outdoor learning space at Wakamatsu Farms, is the Education and Stewardship Coordinator for American River Conservancy which owns Wakamatsu Farms. Garrett’s passion and dedication to this special piece of land was very apparent to all of us that day. He has big plans to make Wakamatsu a learning and Japanese cultural center over the next couple years. It was very moving to me when he took us on a little tour of the grounds, including Okei-San’s grave (https://www. amazon.com/Okei-san-Girls-Journey-California-1868-1871/ dp/0981818846), in particular his unique perspective that “the history of the Gold Rush era was all about people taking things out of the ground, but the original 1860s farming community of Wakamatsu was about people putting things into the ground.” Food for thought (no pun intended).

The sense of accomplishment the five of us felt upon completing a small part of the overall vision, installing one section of rock-lined pathway, was awesome! I am honestly looking forward to completing more tasks at our next work session, to see the actual progress we are making. Next time we will probably prep the ground for the food lab work stations with DG and rocks, a large square area that Garret is working on getting leveled out for us, and also focus more on the garden itself, weeding, planting, repairing mulch rows, etc.

Coronavirus and Flu: Managing Illnesses in the Workplace HR Watchdog, Matthew J. Roberts, Esq. Lately, the coronavirus has been a hot topic of conversation, social media and the news; earlier this month, U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services Alex Azar declared it a national public health emergency. However, while the coronavirus has grabbed our national attention, an estimated 26 million Americans have suffered from the flu within the last four months and at least 10,000 have died from complications related to the flu. Both the flu and the coronavirus are a strong reminder for employers to create or review their communicable disease policies and practices in the workplace.

California requires all employers to maintain an Injury and Illness Prevention Program (IIPP), and an effective IIPP includes policies and procedures for addressing communicable diseases. Ensuring adequate communication about workplace safety between employers and their workforce is another important IIPP aspect.

Employers can start providing information to employees using resources available from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). This toolkit provide action steps that business owners, managers and employees can take to minimize the effect of flu in the workplace. The CDC also offers up-to-date coronavirus information. Communication and education are important first steps towards managing communicable illnesses in the workplace.

Additionally, the California Department of Occupational Safety and Health (Cal/OSHA) has released guidance on protecting health care workers from the coronavirus. The guidance covers the safety requirements when providing care for suspected or confirmed patients of the respiratory disease or when handling pathogens in laboratory settings in California.

Other important policies and procedures to consider when managing illnesses in the workplace are flu shots, health screenings, maintaining privacy and employee relocation. However, various employment laws complicate implementing these policies so legal counsel should review them prior to implementing them in your workplace.

California Matters

Pres. Trump reignites the California water wars

C

alifornia’s decades-old conflict over distribution of water among farmers, urban users and environmental enhancement bears an uncanny resemblance to the decades of sectarian struggles in the Middle East — minus the Dan Walters bloodshed.

In both arenas periodic efforts are made to forge enduring peace agreements but just when they seem to be bearing fruit they are undermined by some new flare-up.

Gov. Gavin Newsom has been trying to finalize what predecessor Jerry Brown began — a series of so-called “voluntary agreements” that would shift water from San Joaquin Valley farmers to bolster flows through the environmentally fragile Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. They are “so-called” because agricultural water districts were willing to entertain such deals only because the State Water Resources Control Board was poised to unilaterally impose curbs on farmers’ supplies.

However, the state is not the only major power in water wars. Much of California’s agricultural water is supplied by the federal government, mostly through its Central Valley Project, and when Donald Trump became president he promised farmers he’d protect their interests.

Last month Trump went to Bakersfield to personally declare he’s making good on that promise. His Bureau of Reclamation finalized a new operating policy that would provide more water to farmers, whose supplies had already been squeezed by a series of court orders.

Trump told a cheering crowd that the new plan will bring “a massive amount of water for the use of California farmers and ranchers and all these communities that are suffering” and criticized state officials for allowing “millions and millions of gallons (to be) wasted and poured into the ocean.”

“Maybe we can get the governor to come along and really be friendly on this one,” Trump said — but even before the president spoke Newsom had denounced the new federal plan and promised to fight it in the courts.

Newsom’s office said he “will file legal action in the coming days … to protect highly imperiled fish species close to extinction.” However, Newsom also sent a letter to Interior Secretary David Bernhardt stating, “We remain committed to working to resolve these remaining differences in (the) coming weeks and months.”

Bernhardt is a former lobbyist for California’s Westlands Water District, which supplies farmers on the west side of the San Joaquin Valley. He had praised the new plan as “a significant milestone in executing on President Trump’s commitment to deliver safe and reliable water for communities in California to the agricultural and environmental benefit of the entire country.”

So where does Trump’s action leave the months of n

Letters to the Editor It’s deplorable EDITOR: t’s deplorable. We know who is deplorable; we’ve been told that.

But what is deplorable?

It is deplorable when more than five million Americans from all walks of life — different political parties, races, creeds, colors, national origins and gender identities (a true slice of Americans — pool their resources to protect their constitutional rights.

They are the NRA and the Democrats regularly demonize them.

What is not deplorable in their minds but, in fact, admirable?

When multi-billionaires like George Soros and Michael Bloomberg spend millions of their wealth to buy local elections and put their minions in Congress who will vote to please their patrons.

Bloomberg even brags about it. Now he is determined to buy the presidency.

Since Bloomberg has ordered his vast media empire to do no investigative reporting on him or other Democrats, but to go full steam ahead trashing Trump, there will be no level playing field when it comes to news coverage of the 2020 presidential election. It will be no different than Putin trying to influence the 2016 election with fake news, except that it is from a domestic source.

Now that’s deplorable.

Addresing homelessness EDITOR: recently read your story about a homeless couple who through struggles of addiction became homeless (Mountain Democrat, Feb.

I

12). In your story the couple became pregnant and sought to overcome addictions. Through the help of the amazing local programs the couple was able to overcome many struggles and now have a home and a respectable job.

Of note, they recently attended a Placerville City Council meeting to thank the town during the open forum. As you reported, during the meeting the couple thanked the town and various programs and called their baby a miracle “that saved their lives.”

I was moved by their story and by the fact that they came to a council meeting not just to thank the council members but also to remind the town that they are not the only homeless who need help.

That being said, as a local healthcare advocate I see many homeless people who utilize emergency departments as shelter to stay warm and get a hot meal; I see them sleeping behind commercial buildings to stay warm in winter months.

As a concerned citizen I am proposing that an education campaign be initiated in order to engage the community in volunteering to assist in the many existing programs that help the homeless in the community of Placerville. This effort is much-needed to increase awareness and also promote health in the community. This campaign may also assist in the development of other free programs that can assist the homeless population in preventive efforts.

If all of us are involved in the community we can help so many more of the homeless population.

Thank you for your story and for bringing awareness to the issue of homelessness in this community.

It took some time but I’ve finally been ... busted

I

’ve been busted.

It’s taken a little while but they finally got me.

When I say they, I don’t mean “they” in the universal sense, rather, it’s a relatively small number. However, it is an enormously consequential number.

And it represents about Chris 65 million Americans, more or less.

Although it was Don Jr. who busted me most recently, his father, of course, has been trying to bust me for quite some time now. Tom McClintock busted me a couple years ago and I’ll get to that before I’m done here.

In a way it’s kind of a relief finally having the cat out of the bag, so to speak. I suppose it’s a little like going to confession or finally admitting to my parents that it was me (and not my brother the conservative) who swiped all those Pall Malls and Salems (yuck)

over the years.

Don Jr. drew a bead on me as if I were the giant grizzly he intends to shoot up in Alaska one of these days. Boom, right into my innermost thoughts like a round from a .50 caliber.

You got me, Don Jr. You caught me redhanded, paws in the Daley cookie jar as it were.

I was secretly wishing that all those millions of people would hurry up and die from COVID 19 (I was thinking of it as the coronavirus rather than the more specific technical term, honestly.)

I don’t mean I want them all to die at once (boring), but they could make it a little more interesting than it has been so far. As of 12:15 on Tuesday the count is only up to six and they were all 70- and 80 year-olds from the same old folks home in Washington. Yawn!

hedge-funders or right-wing celebrities or, better yet, how about those prep school brats?

Best of all would be the prep schoolers from the “1 percent” whose parents belong to any number of Trump golf clubs. How fun would that be? Like killing two grizzlies with one shot — bring down the president and eliminate all those other entitled creeps at the same time. It’s every Democrat’s most frequent and fervent dream.

Big Donald has been saying so all along, that Democrats would do anything to get rid of him, including hoping that millions of people die an agonizing death, gasping for breath with broken lungs drowning in coronavirus. Other than the two Dons, not many people know that. And I was deep into that fantasy when Don Jr. put the big “gotcha” to me.

Remember when Barack Obama kept trying to open all our borders so that Syrians and terrorists of every stripe could flood into our great country and kill many, if not all, of us?

That’s where Tom McClintock comes into this narrative.

Tom penned an op-ed around that time that the Mountain Democrat published. In it he described and called attention to Obama’s malign efforts and to those of his supporters who frequently and fervently wished there were many more murdering terrorists slaughtering Americans day in and day out.

And just as Big Don and Little Don have put the “gotcha” to me and many others over the coronavirus, Tom put it to us over our wish for more murdering terrorists. Well, I think we can all agree that compared to acts of terror, watching elderly, sick people die from coronavirus is pretty dull and frankly a little too slow for our purposes.

But as “they” say: “You play the hand you’re dealt” or “You go to war with the army you’ve got” or “Never let a good virus go to waste.”

Camino man is fired up ■

Hervé Leconte to run 72-hours straight to raise funds for Station 17 improvements Dawn Hodson Staff writer

W

hat can you say about a guy willing to run practically non-stop to help raise funds to renovate a fire station?

Well that’s Hervé Leconte for you.

The 60 year-old Camino resident and ultra-marathoner plans to undertake a 200-mile run on El Dorado County Fire Protection District’s Station 17 treadmill in Pollock Pines beginning today, with plans to run continuously for three straight days and nights — legs willing.

Leconte plans to spend one hour sleeping on the treadmill.

Leconte’s goal is to raise $5,000 toward renovating the aging fire station’s shower facilities and to buy new physical fitness equipment for the firefighters.

Station 17, which is located at 6430 Pony Express Trail, was originally constructed back in 1948 and is in need of some upgrades.

Although the facility now houses four personnel on a 24-hour basis, there is only one shower for firefighters to use for daily hygiene and to

to hunt during the probationary period.

He also was ordered to pay $17,500 in accordance with the 2017 legislation enacted by the state Legislature and Fish and Game Commission.

The relatively new law was deemed necessary because baiting and poaching violates the “fair chase” standard observed by sports enthusiasts who support the premise that true hunters do not resort to underhanded means in order to make the kill.

A press release from the DFW explains further: “The Pope and Young Club, one of North America’s leading bowhunting and wildlife conservation organizations, defines ‘fair chase’ as the ethical, sportsmanlike and lawful pursuit of free-ranging wild game animals in a manner (that) does not give the hunter an improper or unfair advantage over the animal.”

Woltering did not face any jail time with his sentencing — but another man convicted and sentenced in February of similar charges for offenses in El Dorado County faced penalties that included “house arrest” … and a fine of $20,000.

William Vaden, 69, of Elverta in Sacramento County, was arrested after DFW warden Dave Moskat in 2017 drove past a property in Somerset, known to be owned by Vaden, and noticed an automated animal feeder. Moskat then noted that, at the end of the 2018 deer season, Vaden had reported killing a large, 4 point buck.

Suspecting that Vaden used the animal feeder to lure the buck in so the big buck could be shot, Vaden and fellow warden Erick Elliott questioned Vaden, who ultimately admitted to killing the deer at the bait site — after the season had ended — and to forging an official’s signature on the deer tag he turned in.

Letters

Ordered by Judge Ralphs to surrender the rifle used in making the kill, the defendant also was told to serve 90 days in custody, with arrangements made for serving the time under house arrest.

Vaden’s time under the alternative sentencing likely will be completed by March 25, according to the court file.

He also was placed on three years probation and told he may not hunt during that time.

The El Dorado County District Attorney’s Office was thanked by the DFW for its work prosecuting the offenders, with deputy DA Erin Tognetti handling both cases.

Department of Fish and Wildlife officials are hoping the walloping fines enacted in these cases will draw the attention of would-be poachers and give them pause about sending a bullet or arrow toward a trophy animal whose taking would be illegal due to baiting, being out of season or other factors.

“California hunters have long considered baiting for deer a violation of ‘fair chase’ principles,” said David Bess, DFW deputy director and chief of its Law Enforcement Division. “The Legislature and Fish and Game Commission enacted laws and regulations to prohibit the act, then took it a step further to enhance the penalties associated.

“As more and more … see poaching convictions with these enhanced penalties, we hope they will be deterred from poaching the largest deer out of these local herds.”

Penalties for such offenses in the past have limited fines to up to $1,000 — but with the 2017 legislation, law-breakers face fines ranging from a low of $5,000 all the way up to $50,000. Any way you look at it, that’s a lot of bucks.

decontaminate after responding to fires. Decontaminating quickly after a fire is one way firefighters can reduce exposure to cancercausing toxins that are absorbed through their skin.

Buying new exercise equipment will also help keep the community’s firefighters in tiptop shape, making it easier for them to respond quickly to fires and other emergencies.

No stranger to fundraising, Leconte has helped raise money for the El Dorado County Sheriffs Office (including K-9s) and for a local non-profit, Military Family Support Group (of which he is the current board chairman).

People are encouraged to stop by the fire station Friday, March 6, beginning at 8 a.m. through Monday, March 9, 8 a.m., to cheer Leconte on and make a donation.

People can support the cause by sending a check to the Community Economic Development Association of Pollock Pines, made out to CEDAPP, PO Box 434, Pollock Pines, CA 95726, attention: CEDAPP/Subject: PP17 Showers/ Gym.

Things like this create massive distrust when it comes to these tax initiatives. So if you want to

negotiations on the voluntary agreements Newsom sees as a peace treaty in California’s water wars?

Up in the air.

Having Trump on their side bolsters the farmers’ complaints about being compelled to give up water to help fish migrations in the Delta while simultaneously facing new state limitations on tapping underground aquifers via wells. They are unlikely, therefore, to finalize the voluntary agreements until they see how Trump’s move plays out.

Newsom can tie up the federal policy in the courts, at least for a while. He also must contend with environmental groups that never liked the voluntary agreement approach, favoring the

mandatory farm water cuts proposed by the state water board.

Everything probably will be on hold until the contending factions know whether Trump is re-elected in November. If he is, the farmers could play a stronger game. If he’s succeeded by a Democrat, Newsom would regain the upper hand and a Democratic president would be expected to strengthen environmentalists.

The stakes are huge for everyone involved — and for California itself.

ak Ridge High School senior Kaden West went 4-2 in the 195pound weight class at the CIF State Wrestling Championships in Bakersfield over the weekend, wrestling through day three to the blood rounds. If he had won his match he would have earned a spot on the podium as top eight in California but he fell in his sixth match, putting him out of the medal rounds — he finished in the round of 12.

Ponderosa High School senior Jacob Griffiths went 1-2 in the 170-pound weight class. He lost his first match but came back on day two to win against Ethan Gregg of Hemet High School. He then lost his next match to Gilroy High School’s Chad Sakamoto.

horoscope by Holiday Mathis n today ARIES (March 21-April 19). When you’re working very hard and not being compensated, it’s natural to get a bit testy. It may help your attitude to consider that there may be other forms of compensation in play that cannot be tallied at this time.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The right attitude for the moment — that’s the trick — to match yourself to what’s going on around you and then feel around for any points of advantage you might be able to lean into.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The question of doing things for love vs. money will come up. Would you still do this work if you were a multimillionaire? If not, what work would you still be willing to do?

CANCER (June 22-July 22). If you’re in a rut, then it’s because you settled somewhere that made sense for a moment and repeated an action until it dug a nice groove. Getting out of a rut will be a matter of leverage and different sorts of movement.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Making yourself user-friendly sounds like some sort of co-dependent tendency. But actually, anything you can do to make it easier for people to interact with you will benefit one, all and especially you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There’s a feeling of nostalgia that you probably won’t be able to shake, and why would you want to? “No wonder the moon in the window seems to have drifted out of a love poem that you used to know by heart.” — Billy Collins

Get the experience — the to roar under the checkered flag firsthand, in-person, face-to-face, sweat-on-the-paveSaturday. This will be the 55th season ment experience. There’s no story, movie, class or book on the quarter-mile clay, operated that could teach you the same thing. under the Russell Motorsports banner.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You need to keep some in the reserve today. Hold back because your expenditures, mostly emotionally speaking, will be a little more intense than anticipated, and it’s good to have a buffer.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The difficult tasks will be all yours if you want them. Why would you? Because no one else does. The mess is everyone’s to handle, though only the noblest put their hands to the task.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). What you’re thinking of as an identity can also be thought of as though it were simply a choice that you repeat until it becomes synonymous and inextricably entwined with who you are.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The value of intimate relationships is impossible to quantify, but if you were to try, the best measure would be through heartfelt expressions that defy the rules of reason.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Maybe everything has a shelf life. Some expiry dates are a longtime running.

For instance, the humble jellyfish has been around for 500 million years. Also, the love you’ve got going has a pretty good chance of a long existence.

espite the rankings difference, the Bruins got ahead early and kept piling on against the Cardinals, who won the Division IV North Coast Section championship Saturday.

In the ninth minute, junior Kaeyln Miller found an open Alisa Fong for the team’s first goal. In the 23rd minute, Ally Tomasetti made it 2-0. The Cardinal Newman goalkeeper moved up to block Tomasetti but Tomasetti booted the ball past her.

Just five minutes later, Fong, a junior, made her second goal of the game to take the score to 3-0. She took off down the field with a defender on her hip, juked out the goalie and drilled the ball into the back of the net.

Kaelyn Miller then took a free kick from the 25-yard line and nailed the upper right corner to give the Bruins a 4-0 lead in the 30th minute.

The Bruins won 6-1 and will host Leigh High School Thursday at 4 p.m. with a trip to the Northern California finals going to the winner.

District 2

Continued from A1

If the vote holds, come November, business owner George Turnboo and former Cal Fire director Ken Pimlott will face off in the District 2 race, while incumbent John Hidahl and former supervisor Ron Briggs will compete for the District 1 seat.

As of Wednesday there were still about 15,000 mail ballots to be counted across the county, according to elections officer Bill O’Neill. The department is aiming to count about 98-99 percent of the ballots by Friday evening, he said.

As of midnight Tuesday, 100% of county precincts were reporting.

Thomas and DeBerry ran to replace current District 3 Supervisor Brian Veerkamp, who is termed out.

The winner of the seat will take office for a four-year term in January.

Vote counts are current as of press time. Updates will be posted online accordingly.

District 1

Continued from A1

Elections Department showed Hidahl in first place with 4,113 votes, about 45% of the vote. Briggs was significantly behind the incumbent with 2,205 votes or about 24.1% of the vote.

Briggs is holding off considerable competition from below. So far, El Dorado Hills Community Services District Board of Directors President Ben Paulsen has 20.71% of the vote, just 312 votes behind Briggs for the second runoff slot. El Dorado Hills attorney Wayne Haug is a tier lower with 931 votes or 10.18%.

Currently, Supervisor Hidahl is just a few percentage points below the threshold to win the election outright.

A candidate for the board must get

more than 50% of all votes to win without a runoff election. Absent a majority, the two top candidates advance to the general election ballot.

Statewide measure

There was one statewide measure on the ballot. Called California Proposition 13, the School and College Facilities Bond, the measure would have authorized $15 billion in

general obligation bonds for school and college facilities, including $9 billion for preschool and K-12 schools, $4 billion for universities and $2 billion for community colleges.

That measure failed both locally and statewide. In El Dorado County the measure was voted down by 36,138 (71.7%) voters and approved by 14,278 (28.3%) of voters.

Statewide it lost by a slimmer margin with 2.8 million (55.9%) voting no and 2.2 million (44.1%) voting yes.

Neave Trio to perform lively music at Union Mine Jeannette Maynard, EDCCCA

T

he El Dorado County Community Concert Association presents the Neave Trio at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, March 10.

Since forming in 2010, Neave Trio — violinist Anna Williams, cellist Mikhail Veselov and pianist Eri Nakamura — has earned enormous praise for its engaging, cutting-edge performances.

WQXR explains, “‘Neave’ is actually a Gaelic name meaning ‘bright’ and ‘radiant,’ both of which certainly apply to this trio’s music making.”

The Boston Musical Intelligencer included Neave in its “Best of 2014 and Best of 2016 round-ups, writing, “It is inconceivable that they will not soon be among the busiest chamber ensembles going ... Their unanimity, communication, variety of touch and expressive sensibility rate first tier.”

Neave Trio has performed at many esteemed concert series and at festivals worldwide, including Lincoln Center’s Mostly Mozart Festival, Carnegie Hall’s Weill Recital Hall, Smithsonian American Art Museum, 92nd Street Y, Rockport Chamber Music Festival, Norfolk and Norwich Chamber Music Series (United Kingdom) and the Samoylov and Rimsky Korsakow Museums’ Chamber Music Series in St. Petersburg (Russia).

The trio has also appeared frequently as soloists for Beethoven’s Triple Concerto with orchestras across the country and held residency positions at Brown University, University of Virginia, San Diego State University as the first ever Fisch/Axelrod trioin-residence and the Banff Centre (Canada), among

Neave Trio was also in residence at the MIT School of Architecture and Design in collaboration with dancer/ choreographer Richard Colton. In the fall of 2017 the trio joined the faculty of the Longy School of Music of Bard College as Alumni Artists, Faculty Ensemble-inResidence.

Neave Trio strives to champion new works by living composers and reach wider audiences through innovative concert presentations, regularly collaborating with artists of all mediums. These collaborations include performances with the Blythe Barton Dance Company;

projection artist Ryan Brady; the interactive concert series “STEIN2.0” with composer Amanuel Zarzowski; Klee Musings by acclaimed American composer Augusta Read Thomas, which was premiered by Neave; the premiere of Eric Nathan’s Missing Words V, sponsored

by Coretet; Leah Read’s Cloud Burst for piano trio and electronics; Dale Trumbore’s Another Chance; and a music video by filmmaker Amanda Alvarez Díaz of Astor Piazzolla’s “Otoño Porteño.”

Highlights of Neave Trio’s 2019-20 season include concerts at Lincoln Center’s Mostly Mozart Festival, the Smithsonian American Art Museum, Arizona Friends

of Chamber Music, Brown University, Feldman Chamber Music Society,Chamber Music Society of Williamsburg, Norton Building Concert Series, Boise Chamber Music Series, Gordon College, Chandler Center for the Arts and the El Dorado County Community Concert Association.

Grammy-winning musician brings talent to Feist Wines News release

T

wo-time Grammy winner Gill Landry takes the stage at Feist Wines, 15 Eureka St. in Sutter Creek, at 7 p.m. Sunday, March 8.

Landry is a Louisiana-born singer and songwriter. Prior to his first solo album Landry formed an old-time jug band in New Orleans. When Old Crow Medicine Show’s founding member went on hiatus Landry was offered the job as his replacement.

He remained a full-time member and contributing songwriter.

In 2007 Landry was signed to Netwerk Records, which released his solo debut, “The Ballad of Lawless Soirez,” a mix of gritty, blues-inflected folk tunes and rootsy Southern Americana.

Landry is a multi-instrumentalist, self-styled record producer, storyteller,

roadside photographer, dark horse painter, shade tree mechanic and then some.

As American Songwriter magazine writes about Landry’s music, “These songs and especially Landry’s honest performance, resonate long after the last note fades. They beckon you back to further absorb his heartfelt, occasionally comforting, musings on the trials and tribulations of romancegone-sour. It’s a subject most of us have experienced, can easily relate to and one that Landry explores with taste and subtle, refined passion.”

General admission tickets are available at feistwines.com. Wood fired pizza, artisan cheeses and charcuterie are served starting at 5 p.m.

For more information about the concert and Feist Wines call (209) 267-8020.

Washington, D.C. Catt then encouraged members who believed they had a good chance of influencing their state legislatures to lobby to attain suffrage rights by passing amendments to their state constitutions. In the difficult South Catt encouraged Southern women to focus on the right to vote in state primaries.

Finally, and equally smart and effective, was Catt’s strategy to support the candidates for Congress who supported suffrage as they ran for the House and Senate offices in Washington, D.C. Although much-maligned in many history books for his presidency, it was Democratic President Woodrow Wilson who supported in 1918 and 1919 voting rights for women. In 1918 Wilson made an unprecedented appeal on the floor of the U.S. Senate referencing Catt’s war time sacrifice argument asking, “Shall we admit them only to a partnership of suffering and sacrifice and toil and not to a partnership of privilege and right?”

The proposed legislation failed five times in 1918 and 1919 but because the votes were close Wilson was pressured by the suffragists to call a special session of Congress to vote again on the suffrage issue, which he did. This time the

Southern Democrats abandoned their filibuster and with 76% of the Republican Senators voting yes and 60% of the Democrats voting no, the amendment passed in Congress.

But that’s not the end of the story. After the win in Congress, the states needed to vote to ratify the 19th amendment. The 12 primarily western states were a piece of cake as many of these states already had women’s right to vote at the state level.

But the other states in the East and South would be difficult to turn around.

Tennessee was the last holdout to ratify the 19th Amendment. Here the issue of race raised its ugly head and the nature of dirty politics swam in the swamp.

The ratification resolution was defeated twice with a 48-48 vote. But on the third and final vote, Harry Burns, a Tennessee Republican changed his vote from a no to a yes adding the last state needed to pass the amendment. Burns was immediately accused of being bribed (although none of the newspapers ever found any evidence of a bribe).

There were other shenanigans before Tennessee was done with the matter.

Many of the legislators tried to remove themselves from the state with a trip to

Decatur, Ala., thus preventing a quorum but this maneuver failed. A suffragist on the floor of the Tennessee House rang a miniature Liberty Bell as the 19th amendment stayed ratified by Tennessee.

Of course, this is not the end of the story.

In October of 1920 two women referred to as “one colored citizen” and the other a “white woman” were registered to vote in the state of Maryland and a lawsuit was brought by Oscar Leser arguing that Maryland’s constitution limited suffrage to men and the Maryland Legislature had refused to vote to ratify the 19th Amendment. In addition, Leser argued that the 19th Amendment destroyed state autonomy. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled the two women were allowed to stay registered voters.

Soroptimist International of Placerville celebrates the 100th anniversary of suffrage for all women in the United States. And the women of Soroptimists carry on the mission to improve the lives of women and girls through programs of education, equality and empowerment.

North State musicians to entertain at Besemer Concert Hall Saturday News release

Bird & Wag breaks most rules of musical convention — blending humor and pathos with tunes that defy categorization. See the duo perform March 7.

evada City’s Besemer Concert Hall will be filled with joyful noise on Saturday, March 7, when a curious crew of North State musicians descend upon the world-class acoustic space to share their tall tales and hot licks.

Designed by acclaimed audio engineers to create an ideal listening environment, this intimate room is a standout in Nevada County.

Peter and Tricia Berkow’s duet, Bird & Wag, is as much a concept as it is a performing act.

The mis-matched pair breaks most rules of musical convention — blending humor and pathos with tunes that defy categorization ... unless jazzy, funky, dance in your seat with joy and laughter but first, let’s hear this beautiful ballad is now a category.

As Alan Chamberlain, from Chico Currents puts it, “You come for the laughs and stay for the chops.”

The performances merge Peter’s sandpaper-rough baritone with Tricia’s silky voice to create a yin/yang sound like no other.

Bird & Wag is “a pinch of Vaudeville and a sprinkle of a Broadway Show,” writes Jeffrey Fox, Chico Enterprise-Record.

Peter’s career includes four vinyl albums and many performances in Nevada County in the ’70s and ’80s.

“It’s been way too long since I’ve played in Nevada County. It will be good to play there again for my friends who live up there,” he said.

Peter, a producer who has created PBS concerts and CDs with Tommy Emmanuel, Rodney Crowell, Bela Fleck, Sam Bush and dozens of other artists, added, “Of all the projects I have worked on, the Joe Craven PBS special is my absolute favorite. That makes it even more special, when Craven joins us on stage.”

Craven will lend his considerable talents as a side man to accompany Bird & Wag and will also join with the show opener Ruckrich Duo. The evening starts with songs of Phil Ruckrich, who paints portraits of his family band traveling the world, chased by Spanish policemen for busking without a license and interacting with mystics from India.

At his side will be his 15-year-old son, Django, a virtuoso on the violin, mandolin and guitar — and the protégé of Joe Craven: A Nevada County favorite whose résumé includes years on the road with the likes of David Grisman, Jerry Garcia and his own band.

northern Vietnam and was popularized throughout the world by refugees after the Vietnam War. Celebrated Sacramento chef and author Mai Pham opened Lemon Grass Restaurant, Sacramento’s first full-service and high-end Vietnamese restaurant in 1989. Born in Vietnam and raised in Thailand, Pham was one of the first authoritative voices behind Vietnamese and Thai food in America, a distinction that grew out of her family’s exodus from Vietnam and her passion to share that experience through food and culture.

“I used to go to Little Saigon quite a bit when my father was alive. It was a Sunday outing for the family for pho or dim sum,” Pham reminisced.

“Going out for pho is very special and you’d never go alone.”

The name ‘pho xe lua’s is endearing as it means ‘train-size pho,’ a code word to pho connoisseurs.

“Stockton Boulevard is so convenient. We have many favorite places, but Pho Xe Lua is consistent.

If you walk in and are blindfolded it smells like in Vietnam — the fragrance of beef broth and spices,” Pham said. “There’s kind of a romance about it. If you grew up in Vietnam it’s one of these foods that

will stay with you for a long time.”

Other locals and fans who frequent Little Saigon eateries shared their best bets. There are dozens of other options but these scored high on the “what the pho” index.

Pho Saigon 5304 Stockton Blvd.; (916) 457-5580 The No. 1 rare beef pho is so delicious and rich.

Everything is very fresh. They’re open every day and late hours for those nighttime hunger pains.

Portions are huge but not so the prices. Plenty of parking, too!

— Koy, South Sacramento Pho Xe Lua 5331 Stockton Blvd.; (916) 451-8838 My favorite is Pho Xe Lua. I’ve tried others, but always come back to them. For me, pho is always about the flavor of the broth. Theirs is amazing and consistent. I usually stick with No. 16 — rare steak and beef ball. The veggies are always fresh. I can’t recommend it enough!

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 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) 758-8052 or visit this Internet Web site www.Xome. com, using the file number assigned to this case 19-59505. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

CONTRACTORS lICENSE ClASSIFICATION: Bidders must be properly licensed to perform the Work pursuant to the Contractors’ State License Law (Business and Professions Code Section 7000 et seq.) and must possess a ClASS A license or equivalent combination of Classes required by the categories and type of Work included in the Contract Documents and Plans at the time the Contract is awarded, and must maintain a valid license through completion and acceptance of the Work, including the guarantee and acceptance period.

Failure of the successful Bidder to meet this Contract requirement will result in the forfeiture of the Bidder’s security.

CONTRACTOR REGISTRATION: No contractor or subcontractor may bid on any public works project, be listed in a bid proposal for any public works project, or engage in the performance of any contract for public work unless registered with the Department of Industrial Relations pursuant to Labor Code sections 1725.5 and 1771.1.

D I S A D VA N TA G E D BUSINESS ENTERPRISE (DBE) PARTICIPATION: For federal-aid projects, DBE requirements of Title 49 Part 26 of the Code of Federal Regulations (49 CFR 26) apply. Bidders are advised that, as required by federal law, the County of El Dorado has implemented Disadvantaged Business Enterprise requirements for Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBE). Comply with Section 2-1.12 and Section 5-1.13. Bidder will take all necessary affirmative steps to assure that minority firms, women’s business enterprises and labor surplus area firms are used when possible.

The Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Contract goal is 14%.

PREVAIlING WAGE REQUIREMENTS: Contractor’s attention is directed to the requirements of Division 2 Part 7, Chapter 1 of the California Labor Code, including but not limited to Sections 1773, 1773.1, 1773.2, 1773.6, and 1773.7. The general prevailing rate of wages in the county in which the Work is to be done has been determined by the Director of the California Department of Industrial Relations.

Interested parties can obtain the current wage information by submitting their requests to the Department of Industrial Relations, Division of Labor Statistics and Research, PO Box 420603, San Francisco CA 94142-0603, Telephone (415) 703-4708 or by referring to the website at http:// www.dir.ca.gov/OPRL/PWD. The rates at the time of the bid advertisement date of a project will remain in effect for the life of the project in accordance with the California Code of Regulations, as modified and effective January 27, 1997.

Copies of the general prevailing rate of wages in the county in which the Work is to be done are also on file at the Department of Transportation’s principal office, and are available upon request, and in case of projects involving federal funds, federal wage requirements as predetermined by the United States Secretary of Labor have been included in the Contract Documents.

In the case of federally funded projects, where federal and state prevailing wage requirements apply, compliance with both is required. This Project is funded in whole or part by federal funds. Comply with Exhibit D of the Draft Agreement and the Copeland Act (18 U.S.C. 874 and 29 CFR Part 3), the Davis-Bacon Act (40 U.S.C. 276a to 276a-7 and 29 CFR Part 5), and the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act (40 U.S.C. 327-330 and 29 CFR Part 5).

If there is a difference between the minimum wage rates predetermined by the Secretary of Labor and the general prevailing wage rates determined by the Director of the California Department of Industrial Relations for similar classifications of labor, Contractor and subcontractors must pay not less than the higher wage rate. The Department of Transportation will not accept lower State wage rates not specifically included in the Federal minimum wage determinations. This includes “helper” (or other classifications based on hours of experience) or any other classification not appearing in the Federal wage determinations. Where Federal wage determinations do not contain the State wage rate determination otherwise available for use by Contractor and subcontractors, Contractor and subcontractors must pay not less than the federal minimum wage rate which most closely approximates the duties of the employees in question.

AWARD OF CONTRACT: Bids will be considered for award by the Board of Supervisors. The County of El Dorado reserves the right after opening bids to reject any or all bids, to waive any irregularity in a bid, or to make award to the lowest responsive, responsible Bidder and reject all other bids, as it may best serve the interests of the County.

As a condition of award, the successful Bidder will be required to submit payment and performance bonds along with evidence of insurance prior to execution of the Agreement by the County. Failure to meet this requirement constitutes abandonment of the Bid by the Bidder and forfeiture of the Bidder’s security.

Award will then be made to the next lowest, responsive, responsible Bidder.

RETAINAGE FROM PAYMENTS: The Contractor may elect to receive one hundred percent (100%) of payments due under the Contract from time to time, without retention of any portion of the payment by the County, by depositing securities of equivalent value with the County in accordance with the provisions of Section 22300 of the Public Contract Code. Securities eligible for deposit hereunder are be limited to those listed in Section 16430 of the Government Code, or bank or savings and loan certificates of deposit.

The beneficiary under said Deed of Trust heretofore executed and delivered to the undersigned a written Declaration of Default and Demand for Sale, and a written Notice of Default and Election to Sell. The undersigned or its predecessor caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where the real property is located.

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) 758 - 8052 or visit this Internet Web site WWW.HOMESEARCH.COM, using the file number assigned to this case 012366CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site.

The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. FOR SALES INFORMATION: (800) 758 - 8052 CLEAR RECON CORP. 4375 Jutland Drive San Diego, California 92117 3/6, 3/13, 3/20 7566

NOTICE OF PUBlIC HEARING The County of El Dorado Planning Commission will hold a public hearing in the Board of Supervisors Hearing Room, 330 Fair Lane, Placerville, CA 95667 on March 26, 2020, at 8:30 a.m., to consider amendments to Zoning Ordinance Section 130.14.260 (Outdoor Medical Cannabis Cultivation for Personal Use). The proposed amendments will make the County’s cannabis cultivation for personal use ordinance consistent with state law, which allows for the cultivation of no more than six cannabis plants per residence for either medicinal use or recreational use by adults over the age of twenty-one. The proposed amendments will provide the reasonable regulations for up to six cannabis plants per residence for personal use only, with indoor cultivation allowed in all zones allowing for residential uses and outdoor cultivation allowed in all zones allowing for residential uses except Multi-unit Residential. The existing ordinance provides for outdoor cultivation for only medicinal use based on square footage. The proposed amendments would no longer distinguish between cannabis grown for medicinal use versus recreational use by adults over the age of twentyone and would instead impose consistent regulations for all cannabis grown for personal use. The proposed amendments also make changes to the existing civil enforcement program for cannabis. (County Contact: Creighton Avila) (Exempt pursuant to Sections 15061(b) (3), 15060(c)(2), 15060(c)(3), 15305, and 15308 of the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines.)** Drafts of the proposed ordinance amendments and staff reports are available two weeks prior at https://eldorado. legistar.com/Calendar.aspx.

Grammy-nominated soul vocalist to take the stage News release

T

he Sugaray Rayford Band — Grammy nominated premier soul blues vocalist — comes to the Sutter Creek Theatre at 7 p.m. Saturday, March 7.

“Sugaray” Rayford is an American soul blues singer and songwriter. He has released six albums to date and was nominated for two Blues Music Awards in 2019 — Soul Blues Male Artist and B.B. King Entertainer of the Year.

He has won the award for Soul Blues Male Artist of the Year and his last album is nominated for a 2019 Grammy.

When Sugaray belts out a song you not only hear it, you feel it. The excitement in the room is palpable when he takes the stage; he is a superb vocalist and entertainer.

His dynamic voice is large just like the man. With his old-school vocal style, echoes of Muddy Waters, Otis Redding and Teddy Pendergrass can be heard. At 6 feet, 5 inches he is a big man but he moves with grace and energy. His fluid dance steps will remind you of the Legendary James Brown.

Texas born Caron “Sugaray” Rayford began his musical career at the age of 7, singing and playing drums in church and his gospel influence can be heard and felt in his music. Rayford’s phrasing is intimate and conversational and the soulful gravel in his voice hints at his firsthand experience with hardship.

The award winning historical Sutter Creek Theatre, 44 Main St. in Sutter Creek, is an intimate, 215-seat former silent film theater with superb sound. For tickets and video visit suttercreektheater.com.

Band brings bagpipes, high energy to Nevada City News release

S

cottish supergroup Skerryvore returns to Nevada County for a concert at the historical Miners Foundry Cultural Center on Sunday, March 8.

There will be a VIP whiskey tasting for an additional charge hosted by members of Skerryvore prior to the concert.

Skerryvore has performed several times at the annual KVMR Celtic Festival in Grass Valley.

The eight-piece band fuses rock, pop and traditional music with an emphatic thundering of drums and bagpipes.

With its outstanding musicianship and the mesmerizing voice of award-winning singer-songwriter, Alec Dalglish, Skerryvore has become an international sensation.

Hailing from the island of Tiree, Skerryvore formed in 2005 and, in addition to Dalglish on lead vocals

Skerryvore brings its Scottish sound to the Miners Foundry Cultural Center on Sunday, March 8. and guitar, the band includes brothers Daniel Gillespie (accordion) and Martin Gillespie (whistles & accordion), Fraser West (drums & vocals), Craig Espie (fiddles), Alan Scobie (keyboards), Jodie Bremaneson (bass) and Scott Wood (bagpipes).

The band took its unique name after the lighthouse that sits on a

remote reef of the same name off Tiree; it is the tallest in Scotland.

Skerryvore is twice winners of Scotland’s Traditional Music Awards coveted Live Act of the Year (2011 and 2016). The band has performed in more than 25 countries and is very popular in the Middle East and China.

The band is touring

behind its seventh album, “Evo,” which was released in June 2018 in conjunction with the band’s own Oban Live Festival in Scotland, which attracted more than 10,000 attendees last year. “Evo,” which mixes originals with select cover songs, runs the gauntlet from big blast numbers to heartfelt reflective

tracks. The band’s first six albums have sold more than 60,000 physical CDs and well a million-plus streams.

On Jan. 25, 2019, the day recognizing the birthday of Scottish poet, Robert Burns, Skerryvore released the single “Soraidh Slan & The Rise,” a beautiful song that opens with a reading of the William

Blake poem “Songs of Innocence” and builds into a highenergy, bagpipe driven instrumental. The band was backed by the Oban High School Pipe Band, also the recipient of the proceeds of the song.

The single went to No. 32 on the mainstream iTunes chart on day of release, topping huge artists such as Kanye West and Ed Sheeran.

This may be the first time a bagpipe song topped an iTunes chart.
