Development for old golf course denied

– E s t. 18 51

Happy trails

Eric Jaramishian Staff writer The El Dorado County Planning Commission rejected Parker Development’s Central El Dorado Hills Specific Plan proposing to build hundreds of homes on the old golf course along El Dorado Hills Boulevard.

Many El Dorado Hills residents have attempted to convince county leaders to dismiss the controversial construction project and it was no different during the Planning Commission’s hearing Thursday morning — a discussion that lasted into midafternoon. Residents spoke up June 9, citing issues previously expressed — concerns of overgrowth, traffic impacts, water usage during California’s drought event and General Plan inconsistencies.

The project requires a General Plan amendment to allow zoning of the golf course property to be changed from recreational facilities-high intensity to medium and high density residential. CEDHSP includes the Pedregal and Serrano Westside (golf course property) developments — 237 residential units are specified “We cannot for the Pedregal consider this project area, while Serrano Westside would appropriately house 763 units. without taking into Density ranges between less than perspective the one to more than 20 views of the existing units per acre, with community and the highest density slated for the golf their voter approved course parcel.

General Plan …”

Eleven acres are set aside for civic— Andy Nevis, El Dorado limited commercial County planning commissioner use and a 15-acre village park would sit alongside Highway 50. The plan also calls for a total 190 acres of open space/parks and 1.5 miles of a Class I bike and pedestrian trail.

“Frankly, we are proud of this project that we chose,” Parker Development Director of Government Relations Kirk Bone told commissioners. “We get the fact that there is significant community opposition to it and we went into that with our eyes open.

“Everywhere in California some deliberative body somewhere will be asked the same question if they want to add to their housing inventory. We understand that when you propose changes people don’t like it, but we are in the position of representing the people who aren’t here.”

Planning commissioners were mixed on their own opinion of the development. While acknowledging the need for housing units in the county, they had reservations.

“Is it worth giving up that recreational zone?”

District 1 Planning Commissioner/Chair Jon Vegna asked. “I’ve gone on record supporting low-income housing. We need low-income. But do we want that n

‘Visionary’ Mansour dies Noel Stack Managing editor “Tony was a visionary, a visionary who knew what kind of beautiful community El Dorado Hills could become. El Dorado Hills likely would not be here today if it were not for Tony Mansour’s vision and passion for our community,” maintained EDH Chamber of Commerce President/ CEO Debbie Manning.

Her sentiments were echoed by others who knew the charismatic and spirited developer, who poured decades of hard work into promoting

El Dorado Hills and building its Town Center. Mansour died peacefully, surrounded by his family, at age 84 on June 5 after fighting advanced heart failure with an untiring spirit for many years, according to son Louis Mansour.

Anthony Elias Mansour was born Nov. 20, 1937, in Jerusalem. He took great pride in his deep Palestinian roots. Forced to leave during the Nakba in 1948, he emigrated first to Beirut where he learned leadership skills as a Boy Scout leader, before

Diane Patricia Barineau

June 16, 1950 – May 31, 2022

Diane Barineau passed away peacefully in her home at the age of 71. She was a loving daughter, sister, aunt and devoted friend.

Your fun, free spirit will be missed by all.

We love you and will treasure the memories we all made with you.

Suzanne Rees

July 23, 1956 – May 25, 2022

Suzanne Lynn Rees, Sue to most, lost her decade-long battle with cancer at home on May 25.

She came into this world July 23, 1956 in Whittier, Calif., and was the only child of Steven and Helen Brummer. Her mother passed away in 2016.

As a child, she enjoyed school, Girl Scouts, going to Disneyland and being with her friends. She attended California High School in Whittier, the same school where her father taught history. Sue spent a semester abroad in Germany in 1973 where she developed a life-long love of Mercedes-Benz and beer. During high school and afterward she was actively involved in Job’s Daughter Bethel No. 282 in La Habra, where she was Honor Queen in 1975.

After graduation from high school in 1974, Sue worked at the iconic Bob’s Big Boy on Whittier Boulevard, where many local police officers came for coffee and food. This is where she met the love of her life, Stan the Man. Stanton “Stan” Rees and Sue married in 1976 and stayed happily married until Stan’s death in 2017. Sue spent many years working for California’s DMV, where she enjoyed training and various challenging assignments in both Southern California and then Sacramento. She retired from the state in 2001 and then devoted her full attention to her other passions, family and needlework.

Stan brought to the marriage three children and in 1992, Stan and Sue had Kelsey. When Kelsey was 3 years old, Stan retired from the Whittier Police Department and the family moved to Placerville.

They designed and built their dream house. In Placerville Sue fulfilled her dream of owning a needlework store and opened Kelsey’s Needle Krafts in 2001. Stan and Sue poured their sweat and lives into the business. Sensing they would do better in the historical downtown area, they moved the shop just a few years later.

Sue was very involved in the local community, dedicating many hours to the downtown business association, serving as the band uniform mom at El Dorado High School while Kelsey attended and spending countless hours working at the El Dorado County Fair. After many years the reality of being a sole proprietor took its toll, then Sue had a great idea: turn the shop into a cooperative. Kelsey’s Needle Krafts continues today as a cooperative with many wonderful partners.

Sue is survived by her father Steve Brummer, daughter Kelsey Walkover, son-in-law Joshua Walkover, beloved granddaughter Lillian Walkover and by her three stepchildren Christine Kelly, Jeffery Rees and Timothy Rees. She will be mourned by her family, her friends and the Placerville community at large.

A celebration of Sue’s life will be held June 25 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Marshall Building at the El Dorado County Fairgrounds. In lieu of flowers please consider donating to Images of Hope El Dorado at imagesofhopeeldorado.com/donate.

Glenn Solon Davis

On May 17, Glenn Solon Davis passed peacefully in Placerville at the age of 90. He was a renaissance man who influenced everyone he touched.

Glenn was born in 1932 to Glenn and Florence Davis in Medford, Ore. Born during the Great Depression Glenn’s dad paid for his birth with cords of wood.

Glenn’s parents moved to Salinas, Calif., where he grew up with his three brothers Arlen, Norman and Roy. Glenn’s love of gardening began there when he planted his first lawn as a child. After attending Salinas High School he enlisted in the Air Force and was stationed in Berlin as a meteorologist. It was during this time he married Barbara Lumsden and later had four children.

With the help of the GI Bill he obtained his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in physical education and his teaching credential. That enabled him to teach and coach at Kit Carson Jr. High and Hiram Johnson High School. To supplement his income, he became a naturalist in the summers at Big Basin and Big Sur state parks.

These experiences gave him the background knowledge to open Sly Park Environmental Center as its director in 1970. Thus for 19 years he was able to unite his love of teaching, science, physical health and the environment. After retiring from Sly Park, Glenn remained active by volunteering as a science teacher at an elementary school and as a UC Master Gardener.

However, these weren’t Glenn’s only accomplishments. He had myriad of interests including drafting and landscaping. He used these skills to draw up the blue prints and create the garden rooms in his dream home in Placerville.

He was passionate about all aspects of nature, the environment, gardening, art, cooking, traveling and the well-being and value of others. During his lifetime, he has been a role model of integrity and inspiration.

He is survived by his loving wife of 34 years Janet; his former wife Barbara; his children Darien, Tim (Suzette), Aaron (Linda); four grandchildren; three great-grandchildren; his brothers Arlen (Clara Ann) and Roy (Andrea) and all his dear friends who have been like family. He is preceded in death by his parents; his son Doug and his brother Norman.

A celebration of life will be held at Foothills United Methodist Church, 3301 Green Valley Road, Rescue on June 25 at 2 p.m.

Should friends desire, contributions can be sent to: Friends of Sly Park (for children’s scholarships) 5600 Sly Park Road, Pollock Pines, CA 95726 or UC Regents in Memory of Glenn Davis, El Dorado Master Gardeners at 311 Fair Lane, Placerville.

House fire claims life Thomas Frey Staff writer A man died in a Cameron Park house fire June 9.

At 3:28 a.m. the Cameron Park Fire Department was dispatched to a residence on Pasada Road after a neighbor said she woke up to “popping sounds” and called 911. The neighbor, who asked not to be named, told the Mountain Democrat she looked out the window to see her neighbor’s home engulfed in flames.

“I called 911 as soon as I could and pleaded with them to hurry because I knew (my neighbor) was probably burning inside and I was so scared the fire was going to affect all the homes around him,” she said. “I have to say, they came really fast.”

The neighbor said within two to three minutes of calling 911 crews from Cameron

Caution tape surrounds a Pasada Road residence in Cameron Park that caught fire early on the morning of June 9.

Park’s Alhambra and Country Club stations were on scene. Once they arrived, they called in for more help.

An aggressive defensive attack was initiated, according to Diana Swart with the Cal Fire Amador-El Dorado Unit.

The El Dorado County

coroner confirmed 81-year-old Thomas Hogue died in the fire.

The cause of death was determined to be smoke inhalation.

According to the neighbor, Hogue lived alone with his pet parrot.

Swart said the cause of the fire is under investigation.

“(The firefighters) saved the houses around his, including mine,” said the stunned neighbor. “I had bright embers floating onto my roof and into my yard and when I checked my yard the next day I had thousands of ashes everywhere, so they saved us.”

THE DENTAL SEAL OF APPROVAL AND ACCEPTANCE The American Dental Association (ADA) has been approving dental products since 1931. The ADA’s Council on Scientific Affairs awards the seal and uses a team of over 750 scientists to validate the approval. In Canada, the Canadian Dental Association (CDA) performs a similar function, with a seal of approval awarded to products through independent reviews supported by scientific evidence. This allows both organizations to validate claims of product effectiveness and benefits made by manufacturers, so consumers know they are making a purchase that will benefit their dental health. Within both the ADA and CDA, products are evaluated based on their safety, effectiveness, ingredients, labeling, package inserts, and advertising. Look for these seals

on all dental-related products purchased over-the-counter.

Following the initiative of the ADA, we stay on the leading-edge of dentistry, keeping up to date on the latest dental products, materials, techniques, health studies and therapies to ensure all our patients receive the very best in dental health care. If you are looking for a family dentist who understands the needs of everyone in your family as individuals and patients, we welcome you to stop by and get acquainted.

We’re sure you’ll leave with a good feeling about our practice.

P.S. In the United States, a product with the American Dental Association’s seal will include an explanation of why the product was accepted by the ADA.

The horse, it’s assumed, just wasn’t interested and that’s an apt description of the nearly 22 million Californians who had Dan Walters been given ballots for the primary election.

Data guru Paul Mitchell reports (as of June 11) that just 25% of those ballots had been returned to local election officials for counting, indicating that voter turnout could drop below the current recordlow of 25.17% set in the 2014 primary.

It’s not difficult to understand why. Primary elections mostly determine which candidates will face each other five months hence. This year’s primary is especially lackluster and its weak dynamics cannot compete with other matters preoccupying voters, from COVID-19 to skyrocketing gasoline prices and surges in crime.

In fact, there’s just one The primary high-profile political contest that was resolved ballot lacked — San Francisco District motivating issues Attorney Chesa Boudin or contests, so was recalled for his policies that, critics voter turnout say, are too lenient on was very low — lawbreakers. perhaps setting a Pre-election polls indicated that the recall new record. could succeed and the election attracted national media attention because of San Francisco’s reputation for leftish politics and the potential setback for the national criminal justice reform movement.

Aside from the Boudin recall, the most noteworthy contest was a three-way battle for Los Angeles mayor. Polls indicate that Congresswoman Karen Bass and businessman Rick Caruso are running neck-and-neck with Los Angeles City Councilman Kevin de León a distant third.

De León will probably end with single-digit support, but that likely will be enough to prevent either Bass or Caruso from gaining a majority and thus force a November runoff for the right to govern a city plagued by issues — homelessness, crime, traffic congestion, racial tension, economic torpor and political discord — that have bedeviled previous mayors.

That’s about it in terms of issues and contests

Letters to the Editor D-Day article EDITOR: hris Daley and I are on the opposite ends of the political spectrum; however, I want to offer my kudos on his fine article recognizing the sacrifices of D-Day 78 years ago. His were the only comments I saw on the subject so, thanks, Chris.

I don’t know EDITOR: he Uvalde, Texas, elementary school shooting is an incident in history so horrific that it leaves us numb. I don’t want to even think about the horror that prevailed that catastrophe.

What I won’t do is lay the blame on anyone other than the murderer and his family. That creature premeditated murder on his own family and helpless children. So many point fingers at law enforcement, the school or society to come up with a reason for why this murderer decides to murder.

Here’s what I know: The 18-year-old was a high school dropout. His mother is a substance abuser.

His father chose not to be in his life. He was driving a new Ford F-250 and could afford to spend roughly $4,000 on two rifles and ammunition.

How was an 18-year-old high school dropout able to afford this lifestyle? I don’t know who enabled this creature and yet was oblivious to his capacity to destroy.

I don’t know what’s happening, but this looks like the Colorado school shooter whose parents encouraged their child to murder. I believe society needs to hold those accountable for creating this evil event.

Enough. Too much. Stop.

EDITOR: have been pondering over my thoughts for some time and feel strongly that I, as a white woman, need to say something.

My friend, a black, single mother, was treated in a shocking way in Placerville. She was out for a bike

I

ride with her young daughter when out of the blue a woman drove her vehicle right in front of them, blocking their path to cross the street. Can you imagine the fear? This white woman then began shouting, calling her the N word and the B word.

The rude woman had a fiercely barking dog in the car and the window was rolled down, which caused more fear as my friend was afraid the dog would exit the vehicle.

The acts were made even more egregious when she attempted to get help from local law enforcement and was told there is absolutely nothing they could do because it was a random stranger and she didn’t have a name or vehicle license number.

So my friend, having lived in the community for a number of years, began searching in parking lots for the vehicle. By asking a few questions she learned the woman’s name and address. She went back to law enforcement and attempted to turn over the newly found information and was told they wouldn’t do anything as it is hearsay. They would not even go talk to the woman.

She was understandably crushed. She does not feel safe in this town simply because of the color of her skin.

We must do better as a community. Hate simply because of the race or color of someone’s skin is not OK. Hate of any kind is not OK. I mentioned that I am a white woman; however, I have a mixed race family — in-laws and nephews and grandchildren who are not white. I have been told a couple of adults in my family who have brown skin don’t feel comfortable walking down Main Street. They feel it.

I do not understand this behavior. I do not accept this treatment of my family and friends. I don’t know what to do other than this … speak as a white woman in a little town I have always loved. My children were born and raised here. I have owned businesses here. I own property here. I cannot accept the hate I hear about.

We can do better as human beings. Please be kind. Don’t categorize groups/individuals simply because of race. God created all humans to be equal, to be loved by fellow man. We should not fear walking down the street. Love one another. Do not judge without cause.

A commitment to safe schools in El Dorado County

I

n El Dorado County keeping students and schools safe is a top priority for every educational leader and law enforcement agency. Increasingly, families are asking about planning and preparedness for school emergencies, as well as prevention efforts. As a county, we have developed strong partnerships between schools, law enforcement and school community partners to improve campus and community safety.

Within El Dorado County there are 15 school districts that oversee more than 65 schools, as well as several charter schools. The El Dorado County Sheriff ’s Office serves the majority of schools in the county, with seven fulltime deputies assigned to the School Resource Officer program. The SRO deputies respond to calls for service at the high schools located in the county along with middle and elementary schools. In addition, the Placerville Police Department and South Lake Tahoe Police Department serve the schools in their local jurisdictions.

With guidance and technical assistance from law enforcement partners, public schools in El Dorado County have developed school safety plans that are regularly reviewed and

... it is important to acknowledge the role of students and families in looking out for one another and creating safer schools. They may be among the first to recognize warning signs... updated. Plans include procedures for lockdowns, evacuations, active shooter, wildland fires, earthquakes and more. Each campus maintains plans that are tailored to their site and address critical needs at that campus.

Safety plans include communication protocols for connecting with law enforcement and messaging to families. Plans are formally reviewed on an annual basis to ensure that current safety protocols are addressed.

Fire and lockdown drills are scheduled throughout the school year to ensure students and staff are familiar with what is expected of them in the event of an emergency. And, for the past several years, law enforcement and other public agencies have held active shooter drills on school campuses to familiarize themselves with campus layouts and school safety plans.

All schools strive to create a healthy school climate where students feel welcomed and connected. With funding recently provided by the Mental Health Student Services Act, the El Dorado County Office of

Education and community partners will begin to expand access to mental health services for children and youth, including countywide student assessments and campus-based mental health services. It will also allow schools to connect families to ongoing mental health services with local agencies when needed.

As an additional prevention strategy, we are developing School Threat Assessment Teams at several sites.

Team members will be trained to recognize potential threats to schools and students. These multidisciplinary teams will include school officials, law enforcement, mental health professionals and others who work together to evaluate situations and intervene when necessary to connect students to mental health supports and other assistance as needed.

And, finally, it is important to acknowledge the role of students and families in looking out for one another and creating safer schools. They may be among the first to recognize warning signs of someone at-risk of hurting themselves or others. We

encourage students and families to speak to a teacher, counselor, SRO or another trusted adult to get help.

In summary, we would like to assure the community that we have protective systems in place, we are prepared to respond and we will continue to be proactive in our prevention efforts to keep our schools safe and secure.

that could motivate large numbers of voters to mail in their ballots. There are a few that interest political junkies, such as who will finish in the top two in some legislative and congressional districts.

But the real games will be decided in November — whether California will play a role in the national duel for control of Congress and the rivalry between progressives and moderates for control of the state Assembly.

Another factor that undercuts voter motivation in this primary is the lack of high-profile ballot measures.

For decades, California’s Constitution declared that statewide initiative measures could appear only on a “general election” ballot, presumably the November election. In 1971, however, a young secretary of state named Jerry Brown decreed that measures could be placed on the primary ballot as well.

Three years later, Brown used his own ruling to place Proposition 9, a political reform measure, on the 1974 primary ballot — a major factor in his successful campaign for governor that year.

For the next four decades, primary election ballots included some of the state’s most far-reaching, hardfought ballot measures that drew voters to the polls, including Proposition 13, the iconic tax limitation measure in 1978.

In 2011, however, Brown, once again governor, countermanded his own 1971 decree by signing legislation to once again confine initiative measures

to the November general election ballot.

Why? Democrats wanted to prevent a so-called “paycheck protection” measure, limiting unions’ ability to extract campaign funds from their members, from appearing on the 2012 primary ballot. Forcing it onto the November ballot, they believed, would make passage less likely.

The ploy worked as voters rejected the measure.

But ever since, primary election ballots have lacked voter-motivating ballot measures and turnout has been weak.

SCCT victory to Sanders

comics n SHOE by Jeff MacNelly

Gary Thomas Placerville Speedway Justin Sanders has been a dominant force at Placerville Speedway over the last several years.

On Saturday night the Aromas driver continued that theme by earning his fourth victory in as many winged 360 sprint car starts at the track this season.

The win for Sanders came during the Sprint Car Challenge Tour portion of the 31st Dave Bradway Jr. Memorial. It marked his 20th career winged 360 sprint car triumph at the Placerville bullring.

Sanders and car owner Dale Miller walked away with an SCCT purse of $6,600 by way of setting fast time, winning their heat race and the 35-lap feature.

The SCCT main event began with Sanders jumping into the lead ahead of Fremont’s Shane Golobic and last year’s tour champ Ryan Robinson. Things got interesting once lapped traffic came into play as

horoscope by Holiday Mathis n today ARIES (March 21-April 19). Assessments of character cannot be extrapolated from situations where people are dealing with their superiors. Anyone can be nice to someone with authority. The true self is revealed in how people treat those who cannot help them.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You may very well be the only one in the room who is giving quality attention where it is needed, but others will catch on because your good energy is contagious.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You keep trying to find the best in everything, and there’s a lot to weed through on your way to it today, but it’s there. Keep going until you get to the Tootsie Pop in the middle.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). If you find yourself questioning everything your leader does, you’re following the wrong person. Blind faith is not your style. You’ll only do what makes sense to you.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’re all about the work, which you’ll approach humbly. You may in fact be modest to a fault. Seize your moments to shine, otherwise unqualified contenders will step in and leave people underserved.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ll do something to enhance another person’s experience, ease their suffering or help them feel less alone in the world.

Even just being there for someone is a balm to the soul.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). There’s an endless supply of words that could be said but very little of it should be said. Those who only speak words of truth, necessity and kindness do not speak often and yet they say so much.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The archer of the zodiac prefers to stay on target! But sometimes drifting is good for you. It allows you to see options you wouldn’t have known about had you stuck to a predetermined course.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Though you’re going for “yes,” the word “no” can be a bigger blessing, steering you quickly to a better fit and what will ultimately prove to do the highest good for the most people.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Those who have something to offer you won’t seem to be trying too hard, and yet overeagerness isn’t always a bad sign.

Sometimes it just means people don’t yet know the value of their gifts.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). If you want something too much, your wanting can actually push it further away from you. Try neutrality or, if that doesn’t work, pretend you have it already and love it so!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You have something to share and there will be many takers. Plan accordingly. What portion can you give to each person, knowing you’ll give it several times?

Justin Sanders bested a field of 35 winged 360 drivers. the front runners picked their spots wisely. Golobic stalked the tail tank of the No. 4SA sprinter as the race wore on, forcing Sanders to hit his marks lap after lap.

The action heated up with less than 10 circuits remaining and heavy-duty lapped traffic causing havoc up front.

Right when it looked as if the race would be decided in traffic, the caution waved with two laps left.

On the restart Golobic gave it a shot by executing a slider in turns three and four, but things got very tight towards the thick cushion, which ultimately saw the No. 17W getting

sideways and contacting Ryan Robinson, who had nowhere to go.

Sanders then ran the cushion on the final restart and accepted the Ed Entz checkered flag to earn a sweep of SCCT events at Placerville Speedway for 2022.

Lincoln’s Tanner Carrick crossed the stripe in second to record runner-up finishes in both main events. Last season’s runner-up in the Placerville standings, Joel Myers of Sebastopol, completed the podium.

The Sprint Car Challenge Tour is back in action Saturday, June 18, at Petaluma Speedway.

concentrated amount of low-income housing on the Pedregal site?”

District 3 Commissioner John Clerici shared that since the year 2000, the population of El Dorado Hills has tripled and migration patterns are not slowing down for the community and the county as a whole.

“I think of all the things that the developer has proposed, this is the most compelling,” Clerici said. “It needs clarification and focus overall but I think it’s an excellent addition. It is something that the county desperately needs.”

Addressing the El Dorado Hills population, District 4 Commissioner Andy Nevis said the project would be a good plan if the community had a blank slate.

“The problem, though, is this is not a new community. It is an existing community with a rich history with tens of thousands of residents,” Nevis said. “We cannot consider this project appropriately without taking into perspective the views of the existing community and their voter approved General Plan, which explicitly directs us to consider the views of the community.”

While commissioners recognized development at the intersection of El Dorado Hills Boulevard and Serrano Parkway is potentially inevitable, an issue with limited coordination between Parker Development and the El Dorado Hills Community Services District, which Nevis said is meant to serve future residents, concerned them.

“I heard the applicants say this morning they represent the future residents of this area. Well, I think the future residents of this area would probably want (the developer) coordinating with the community services district that’s going to provide them services in the future,” he explained.

The Planning Commission ultimately found the project to be inconsistent with the General Plan and subsequently made two motions — 1.) to deny the project, a unanimous vote; and 2.) to deny the certification of the CEDHSP Revised Final Environmental Impact Report, which went 4-1. Clerici was the dissenting vote.

Unless Parker Development withdraws its application, the commission’s recommendations will go to the El Dorado County Board of Supervisors for review at a date to be determined.

“We are all too happy with the Planning Commission’s decision,” El Dorado Hills resident Don Terra said.

“All we can do now is hope that the board does the right thing and denies this project.”

El Dorado Hills resident Vina McConville said the commission’s decision was a welcome surprise, adding she felt they listened to the public regarding the project.

“We are going to regroup and discuss what happened so we can prepare for the Board of Supervisors when this is revisited in about a month,” McConville said.

In a statement posted by the El Dorado Hills Area Planning Advisory Committee on its website June 9, Chair John Davey states while he believes the commission made the correct decision, opportunities to find other recreational uses for the site and addressing needs for multifamily housing units in the Pedregal area would have been better spent in the 10 years it took the project to get to the Planning Commission.

Like the Planning Commission, Davey also noted a lack of compromise from both the community and Parker Development on the subject.

“My hope is that a community approach can be undertaken to generate a project (or projects) for the properties that respects existing zoning. One that our residents can support, that enhances the things we all love about El Dorado Hills and that is a beneficial project for the property owner,” Davey notes.

“Understandably, many may perceive a sense of animosity between members of the community and the project applicant,” he continues. “That is unnecessary — this all revolves around a simple disagreement and nothing more. It’s natural and healthy to have reasonable disagreements. What we do to resolve our disagreements speaks more about our community, than arguing about the issues.”

moving with his family to the United States in 1958. He married the love of his life, Sandra Gabrie, in 1963.

As a young man Tony was a serial entrepreneur, launching and growing ever-larger businesses in the retail sector, culminating in the mid1970s with the most popular home electronics store in Los Angeles. His career breakthrough came in 1970 when he became the exclusive provider of Hitachi TV sets with contracts providing the screens to two burgeoning video game start-ups — one of which became the legendary tabletop Pong game for the company that became Atari, Louis noted.

By the late 1970s Tony had his eye out for something even larger.

In 1979, while in his warehouse atop a tall ladder, Tony answered a call that would change his life. A friend on the line told him about an entire town east of Sacramento for sale. Tony recalled to then-Mountain Democrat reporter Mike Roberts that he hastily scribbled notes on the side of a box. After hanging up, he cut the notes off the box, got off the ladder and decided to check out the failed residential project.

Originally planned for 75,000 residents, El Dorado Hills had just 1,300 homes.

Sales were flat. Energy costs were high. Expensive infrastructure and entitlement concerns were looming.

But Tony didn’t see any of that when he arrived. What he saw were 8,000plus acres of gently rolling hills and sweeping vistas and it left him smitten.

He wrote a $5,000 check as a good faith deposit on all remaining parcels and closed escrow in 1981.

Mansour’s El Dorado Hills Investors Ltd. acquired the 8,000 acres of what became Serrano, Blackstone, Valley View, most of the freeway-proximate commercial sites north of Highway 50 and Town Center, east and west. The county adopted his specific plan for the area in 1988. Mansour then sold much of the property to focus on Town Center.

“Tony picked up from where the original developer left off and made a vision for El Dorado Hills, which is the community you see today,” said Wayne Lowery, retired El Dorado Hills Community Services District general manager and longtime EDH resident.

“He understood quality and how to make it happen.”

“Many of us EDH newbies were very apprehensive about what might happen to our beloved open hillsides and cattle grazing land,” shared District 1 Supervisor John Hidahl, also a longtime resident. “Tony brought a vision for El Dorado Hills with fresh ideas on how to revitalize local land use planning following the demise of the 1960s Gruen Plan (village concept). El Dorado Hills Town Center is his legacy imprint on El Dorado Hills and was a dream of his that evolved over many years and involved numerous world-renowned planners. This was ‘big sky’ thinking … that is serving our EDH residents well today and into the future.”

Noting Tony was “always open to new

ideas,” Hidahl said he was naturally one of the first people those supporting EDH cityhood approached. “While apprehensive, Tony quickly recognized that we also had a vision of prosperity for EDH and provided advice and funding to eventually initiate an incorporation effort,” he told Mountain Democrat. That 2005 ballot measure failed though today there is renewed cityhood interest.

“Tony’s spirited conversations and thoughtful advice will be sorely missed by several of us in EDH who worked personally with him,” Hidahl added.

Manning, who knew Tony for more than 20 years, recalled a 2009 road trip she took with him, during which they visited the California Welcome Center in Auburn.

“He saw the big highway sign and his eyes lit up,” Manning shared.

“We toured their center and, (when) driving back, I asked would you like a California Welcome Center in Town Center? He said, ‘Yes, let’s make it happen.’ In 2010 Town Center became home to the California Welcome Center with his support and financial contributions along with El Dorado County supporting tourism through (a) TOT contract for service.”

In 2011 entrepreneur Kevin Nagle joined EDH Town Center management as a consulting partner for the retail project that defines “downtown” El Dorado Hills and at the time he praised Tony for his vision and determination.

That tenacity and enthusiasm didn’t go unnoticed by Roberts either, as he worked with Tony for years while reporting for the Mountain Democrat.

“When I dug into the history of El Dorado Hills I was amazed that one man, with a lot of help from his son Louis, was responsible for all this,” Roberts said, adding that he saw Tony as both a friend and father figure. “He loved talking about it. He seemed to like telling me the stories … the lessons learned, the sacrifices made. I still can’t believe he turned down Walmart.

“No, this place didn’t happen by some accident of evolution. It was master planned by a guy with almost no development experience and absolutely no planning experience. He learned it all on the fly, while fighting fire after fire,” Roberts continued. “And it has really turned out nice. It’s great to see Town Center so vibrant. The people of El Dorado Hills should be supremely grateful that Tony Mansour heard about a whole town for sale in 1979. We need a bronze statue.”

Tony was a self-made man who took great pride in his success, but even more pride in his role as patriarch of the Mansour family, Louis shared, explaining that his father helped countless family members and friends with their educations, careers and businesses.

Tony is survived by his loving wife of 59 years, Sandra; his devoted sons, Louis, Jack and Anthony Jr.; as well as other family members.

A celebration of life will be planned in El Dorado Hills at a future date.

Cork oak trees Pauline Atkins UCCE Master Gardener of El Dorado County

P

op … let the celebration begin!

That fizzy pop is the wonderful sound a cork stopper makes when opening a bottle of champagne or wine.

That cork probably made a long trip, over many years, to get to the party. Exactly where does cork come from and why does it pop out of so many bottles of California wine?

The thick bark from the cork oak tree has been a valuable resource for thousands of years. Cork oak trees, Quercus suber (family Fagaceae) are not native to California, but they do have a history in our area. The trees originate from Mediterranean countries, which include Portugal, Spain, Italy, France and North African countries.

Cork oaks flourish in Hardiness Zones 8-11.

They thrive and adapt to hot, sunny days and withstand drought conditions. This evergreen, leafy tree with beautiful canopy prefers slightly acidic soil and requires good drainage. Our California climate is a welcome habitat for cork oaks.

Introduced to California in the 1880s, homesteaders saw the value of this tree’s

Look at the bark. It is thick, grey/tan color, slightly spongy and deeply fissured — perfect for harvesting and making into cork products.

Cork usage includes floors, shoes, bulletin boards, floats for fishing lures and buoys and, importantly, wine bottle corks. Cork stoppers are resistant to moisture and liquid penetration.

It is the preferred method of closure used by wineries for safely sealing wine bottles.

In the 1920s, the

University of California, Davis introduced cork trees to its grounds along East Quad Row. During World War II there was a big push to add more cork trees at the school. At the time, there was a worry that cork shortages would occur in the years to come. Oak trees are deeply rooted and celebrated for providing oxygen, unique beauty and welcome shade on campus.

bloom in May. This was such a beautiful section of trail. The birds provided a full chorus of song along my walk.

You might catch a glimpse of the Middle Falls through the trees as you approach. In heavy runoff these falls are spectacular. The mist billows up into the forest, thick with pine and the ever-present dogwood.

Once you tear yourself away from Middle Falls, the trail takes you up a switchback for a view from above the falls.

Note the parking lot not far away on the paved trail to the top.

It’s hard not to linger here but even more awaits you.

The Upper Falls create a white ribbon of rushing water down the river. The water is squeezed out between

n the Shasta-Trinity National Forest near McCloud you find Fowlers Campground. Around Fowlers Campground you find the River Trail with three waterfalls on the McCloud River.

Each falls site can be easily accessed by driving directly to the parking lot and day use area of each falls site.

Or pick one and start a beautiful day hike.

For a change of scenery, I decided on enjoying the waterfall season with a drive to Siskiyou County.

Highway 89 is a lovely drive with open meadows and mountain views. I started at Lower Falls from the Lower Falls parking lot. Restrooms are located here as well as picnic tables and plenty of parking. I started here so I could walk downhill on the way back.

Lower Falls in the wet season is an awesome sight on its own. The stone observation deck and bench overlook a wide fall. After taking more than enough pictures, I stood on the edge of the mostly volcanic rock surrounding the falls from eruptions of Mount Shasta — the most recent about 200 years ago.

Walking along the river on the paved walk, beyond Lower Falls, you pass campsites with information boards sharing a bit of history about the area and more restrooms.

At the end of the camp sites a sign tells hikers they have a half-mile hike to the Middle Falls. Leave the pavement and continue along the river. The dogwoods were in full

boulders. Again, note the large, paved parking lot. You may want to consider two cars and leave one at Upper Falls and one at Lower Falls. This would cut your hike by half. Or consider the idea that you get to go downhill and enjoy three waterfalls over again.

The variety of spring flowers are a joy and the trees are impressive if you can take your eyes off the river.

Coming down feels much faster. Before you know it you are climbing the stone steps back up to the day use area at Lower Falls. If you do the full out-and-back trail you will cover 8 miles but only a 330-foot change in elevation, first up 275119 and then down on the return.

To get there, you can take I-5 north (fastest route) but if you have the time and inclination, consider taking CA 89-N. From the main intersection in the town of McCloud, drive east on Highway 89 for 5.5 miles. Turn right on the signed road for the McCloud River Loop. Continue for 0.7 miles. Stay right at the first intersection

the Peter J. Shields Oak Grove Tour to see a large variety of oak trees, including cork oaks.

Cork is one of the world’s most important renewable, forest products. A harvested cork oak tree stores up to five times more carbon than an unharvested tree. The cork bark is harvested or stripped off the tree in a thick cylindrical layer. It is just like shearing sheep. This stripping process, done by hand, uses specialized axes. Each mature tree, approximately 25 years old, is gently harvested every 9-10 years. The harvested cork goes through an involved curing and evaluation process before becoming products. Cork oak trees can live over 200 years. After harvesting, the bark will grow back. A single tree’s harvest can make 4,000 bottle corks.

If you cannot visit Davis, there are local ones in the Placerville area. A lovely cork oak stands in the parking lot across from the Cameron Park Airpark.

In downtown Placerville, a massive old cork oak tree is in the planter at the Ivy House parking lot, intersection of Cedar Ravine and Main Street, across from the Druid Monument. Stop by, and you too, can discover the remarkable cork oak tree.

A hearing on the petition will be held in this court as follows: June 22, 2022 at 8:30 a.m. in Dept. 4 at 1354 Johnson Blvd., South Lake Tahoe, CA 96150 IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.

IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code.

Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.

The property heretofore described is being sold “as is”. The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 9285 STICKERBUSH TRAIL, GEORGETOWN, CA 95634. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. Said 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 said Deed of Trust, with interest thereon, as provided in said note(s), advances, if any, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, estimated fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust, to-wit: $36,519.13 (Estimated).

Accrued interest and additional advances, if any, will increase this figure prior to sale. The Beneficiary may elect to bid less than the full credit bid. 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 caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where the real property is located and more than three months have elapsed since such recordation.

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 or visit this internet website www.nationwideposting. com, , using the file number assigned to this case 131759-5. 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.

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 916-939-0772, or visit this internet website www.nationwideposting. com, using the file number assigned to this case PFI-221678 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, by remitting the funds and affidavit described in Section 2924m(c) of the Civil Code, 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 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.
