Highway 50 open; weather still driving fire
Show stoppers
Thomas Frey Staff writer The 219,231-acre Caldor Fire was holding at 76% percent containment Tuesday despite elevated fire activity. Fire crews had challenging weather conditions Monday northwest of Caples Lake due to increasing winds and a drop in humidity that led to a red flag warning over the fire area. “West of Caples Lake in the Lake Margaret area we are seeing some fire activity. Fire crews are working diligently (there) in coordination with aircraft,” said California Interagency Incident Management Team 12 Operations Section Chief Michael Page, who led Monday evening’s Caldor Fire community briefing. South of Desolation Wilderness on a barrier around Bloodsucker Lake firefighters say they are seeing a lot of smoke production caused by interior pockets of fire burning out due to wind and low humidity. But overall, Page said everything looks good. “Crews were able to get in, mop up and secure n

Andrew Vonderschmitt Staff writer Placerville city staff presented to the City Council last week an $890,166 appropriation plan for American Rescue Plan Act funds. The spending plan includes vehicles and equipment for the police department, fuel reduction on city property, a marketing plan and a sewer and water bill assistance program. The list of potential projects has been in the works at City Hall since ARPA funds were discussed at a special meeting Aug. 31. In March the $1.9 trillion ARPA economic stimulus bill was signed into law to provide funding for economic recovery. Of that money, $65 billion was earmarked specifically for cities across America. Placerville was allotted a total of $2.6 million, which will be paid over the course of two years. The city received its first allotment of half the funding in July — $1,336,649. After an initial discussion with the City Council, staff brought forward wishlists from each department for items that qualified for the funding. With direction from the council, final proposed n

More shake up at EDC Planning Commission Sel Richard Staff writer On the heels of the recent removal of District 2 Planning Commissioner Cheryl Bly-Chester by the El Dorado County Board of Supervisors, District 4 Planning Commissioner James Williams has now vacated his seat. “It breaks my heart,” Williams said, sharing that his resignation will allow him to focus on his family and his business, Ponderosa Auto Express in Cameron Park. He said much of his ability to donate time to commission duties was attributed to his reliance on

a key employee who has taken another position. Williams explained that the loss is compounded by the lack of quality workforce currently available. As to recent accusations from BlyChester of vote negotiation and ex parte communications, Williams assured his resignation is in no way related. “The timing sucked but there is no validity to her accusations,” he declared. “She tried to use me as a distraction for her inappropriate behavior, in my opinion.” District 4 Supervisor Lori Parlin expressed thanks to Williams for his six years on the commission. “His caring and passionate approach to working
with applicants, staff and the public are commendable and appreciated,” she said, adding that Williams had been looking to step down for some time. “His integrity and attention to detail have led him to become an effective leader on the Planning Commission.” “James was the hardest working and most dedicated commissioner that I can recall in my 20 plus years of dealing with the planning commission,” said Planning Commission Chair Jon Vegna, who represents District 1. “He was also the staunchest advocate for the public in his n

Edna Realmonte
Moratorium to protect insurance coverage for wildfire survivors
Edna passed away peacefully in her home Sept. 8 under the loving care of her caregivers and Snowline Hospice support. She was just shy of her 97th Birthday. Edna was born in Mountain View, Calif., to Italian immigrants Tony and Emilia Cabano. She was the youngest of four children; Yolanda Rossi, Inez Bolocco and Dino Cabano who all preceded her in death. Her husband Kelly (Ike) Realmonte preceded her in death in 1989 just after they moved to their newly built home in Greenstone from San Jose. She decided to stay in Placerville and rebuild her life. She became a member of the Widows Club and was active with the senior center. She met some wonderful people and loved taking trips to the casino, horse races, playing cards, attending luncheons and fashion shows. The community of Greenstone welcomed her and she made lasting friendships with her neighbors who offered so much support to her. Edna’s passion was ballroom dancing from her younger years during the big band era at the Santa Cruz Coconut Grove until well into her 80s, attending dances in Sacramento. She loved fashion and had her own style and was always “dressed up” even when on the hunt for fun finds at the various estate sales in the area. Edna loved to laugh and was always telling you a favorite joke before she hung up a phone conversation or while having friends in for dinner or playing cards. Edna is survived by her nieces Chris Rossi Pino and Sheila Rossi Prado; two great-nieces Tiffani Jacobs and Monica Pino and two great-greatnephews Charlie Jacobs and Ben Jacobs. Services will be held Saturday, Sept. 25 at Chapel of the Pines at noon. A private burial will be at Santa Clara Mission Cemetery on Monday, Sept. 27. In lieu of flowers the family would appreciate donations to Snowline Hospice.
SACRAMENTO — Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara on Monday ordered insurance companies to preserve residential insurance coverage for more than 325,000 policyholders who have been affected by devastating Northern California wildfires across 22 counties. The order protects those living within the perimeter or adjoining ZIP codes of a declared wildfire disaster regardless of whether they suffered a loss, including the Dixie, Caldor, River, Tamarack, Antelope, McFarland, Monument, Fly and Cache fires. “Climate change-fueled wildfires continue to devastate homeowners and communities.

Dec. 4, 1948 - Sept. 5, 2021
David Mitchel Poor passed away Sept. 5 in Boise, Idaho with his wife of nearly 54 years, Linda by his side. David was born on Dec. 4, 1948, in Sutter Creek, Calif., to Fay and Lula Poor, second of nine children. David grew up in Amador County. He met Linda White in the seventh grade, later marrying in October 1967 after graduating from Amador High School. David started working in the woods as a young man and became a timber faller that many still talk about to this day. He was the third generation to work in the woods. Doing many jobs in his life; cabinet maker, butcher, store clerk, beekeeper and pastor. David was called by the Lord at 19 and attended Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary School in Fort Worth, Texas at 30. After graduating from Seminary in May 1981, he pastored for several years in Texas and built a sanctuary for 305 people. In April 1983, he came back to California to pastor in Diamond Springs and build again, educational office space. After many years of pastoring David and Linda moved to Council, Idaho, to enjoy the outdoors, hunting and fishing. Again, David was called by the Lord and opened another sanctuary in the community of Council. Gardening, fishing, hunting, preserving food, spending time with his family and friends and speaking the Lord’s word were what he enjoyed the most. David is survived by his wife Linda and their children; Aaron (Rhae), Melonie, Kristie (Chad), and Hilary (Enrique); 11 grandchildren, four greatgrandchildren, nieces, nephews and cousins; siblings Alta, Joyce, Evelyn, Nancy, Tom, Mary and Chris. He is preceded in death by his parents, Fay and Lula Poor and sister Alice. Services will be held Sunday, Sept. 26 at 2 p.m. at Council Community Church, 105 California Ave. Reception will follow at the family home 2027 Council-Cuprum Road. In lieu of flowers the family is asking for donations to be sent to the Gideons to purchase Bibles to help spread the Lord’s word in David’s honor.

I will both continue to enforce this law to protect consumers and continue working to create long-term solutions.” The commissioner’s ability to issue moratoriums is a result of a California law he authored in 2018 while serving as state senator in order to provide temporary relief from nonrenewals to residents living within or adjacent to a declared wildfire disaster. Monday’s moratorium order follows Gov. Gavin Newsom’s six emergency declarations this summer. The one year of protection from non-renewal

One of the most common of all fears is dental fear. Nearly 75 percent of adults have a fear of the dentist at some point. Although practices now optimize comfort, fear of dentistry remains constant, ranked fourth among the most common fears. Fear is our brain telling us something doesn’t feel right; however, for adults who have anxiety associated with dental visits, its source often is a traumatic dental visit in their past. Approximately ten percent of these adults are categorized as dental-phobics. Dental fear is not shameful, nor does it make one a “problem patient.” Overcoming dental fear involves taking small, comfortably paced steps to conquer dental fears
and phobia. Let your dentist know how you feel! What’s been keeping you from visiting the dentist? If it’s dentophobia, we would like you to know we have calmed the anxieties of many patients over the years, with our relaxing atmosphere and friendly, compassionate staff. And because of the many advances in dentistry, the dental procedures we perform today are much less painful or even pain-free. We’ll work together to ensure your appointments with us are comfortable, productive, and rewarding. HINT: Dentophobia is the fear of dentists. It can be overcome with simple, practical steps.

anything that might have been a threat to the line or that could have caused an issue,” Page said. The Christmas Valley area is still under an evacuation warning based on fire activity in the area. “When the risk deteriorates and gets to a point to where we feel that there is no more risk to Christmas Valley, we will take that off the map,” Page said. “The ridgeline up top is very prone to the high winds. We do have crews there working very diligently.” People who have cabins around Caples and Echo lakes have been allowed to go in and secure their belongings. “We wanted those folks to have the ability to get in and secure those cabins, secure their belongings and just have some space to do that before we open it up further,” said Forest Supervisor Gwen Sanchez, who noted she has been working closely with Eldorado National Forest Supervisor Jeff Marsolais. Those with property on forest service land are asked to contact the forest service for access details. The evacuation order for the Highway 50 corridor between Kyburz and Echo Summit was downgraded to a warning Tuesday morning, allowing access to residences and cabins on both sides of Highway 50. Properties beyond the highway corridor cannot be accessed, according to the El Dorado County Sheriff ’s Office, as the entire Eldorado National Forest is under a closure order through Sept. 30 and much of it also under an evacuation order. Although the Tahoe Rim Trail north of Echo
Lake was ordered closed through Dec. 31, Sanchez said that order could be lifted sooner. “I will continue to look at conditions and if conditions improve and we’re able to let those closures go out of effect earlier than the end of the year, I will be looking to do that,” Sanchez said. “… I hope we don’t have those in place through the end of the year.” Highway 50 through to Tahoe opened to traffic Tuesday morning. While the roadway is open, motorists are advised to use caution and be patient as crews are still at work repairing electrical infrastructure and mitigating hazard trees. “The access that may be limited is really due to public safety and firefighter safety,” said Team 12 Incident Commander Michael Nobles. “We ask that when you access these areas, be aware that you’re going to be asked to stop at roads for a bit because there’s timber falling operations. (Those) can’t stop at a moment’s notice, they have to take an evolution of time before we can stop and allow access.”

California Matters
Wildfires ignite an insurance crisis in CA
A
s if California needed another crisis, the state’s seemingly perpetual wildfires are forcing millions of homeowners in fire-prone areas to pay skyrocketing premiums for insurance coverage — if, indeed, they can buy it at all. DAN WALTERS As the number and severity of wildfires increase, insurers are increasingly reluctant to renew policies and even if they do premiums often double or triple. Insurance is required for most homeowners since their mortgage lenders demand it. And if they cannot obtain regular coverage, they are forced into the insurer of last resort, FAIR, that has very high premiums and limits on coverage. Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara has repeatedly invoked a law he authored three years ago as a state legislator, imposing one-year moratoriums on policy cancellations for property in or immediately adjacent to the sites of major fires. In 2020 Lara’s moratoriums covered 2.4 million policyholders after fires scorched more than 4 million acres and consumed hundreds of homes and other California’s neverbuildings. When this year’s fires are finally ending wildfires extinguished, including have ignited an the immense Dixie insurance crisis Fire and the Caldor Fire that nearly wiped that demands bold out South Lake Tahoe, new thinking. Lara will extend the moratoriums to their burn zones. At best, however, such moratoriums are merely stopgaps. So what, one might ask, are politicians doing about the crisis? There is some scapegoating. This month Assemblyman Marc Levine, a Democrat from fireprone Marin County, fired off a letter to insurance trade groups, telling them, “I do not believe that the costs of utility mismanagement or the impacts of climate change should be arbitrarily and capriciously passed through to my constituents in the form of homeowners’ insurance being declined, non-renewed or their insurance premiums being raised exorbitantly. Particularly when there has been no change of conditions or circumstances.” Circumstances are also beyond insurers’ control as they assess potential losses and calculate whether to offer coverage and, if so, what to charge. They cannot, as Levine seems to suggest, ignore the perils regardless of their causes. Levine later introduced legislation that would have the state become an insurer for those unable to buy coverage elsewhere. John Norwood, a veteran insurance industry lobbyist, set forth the dilemma in a recent article for an industry publication: “The availability and affordability of property insurance in California are not likely to change until the worldwide reinsurance market believes California is serious about addressing its wildfire risks and there are demonstrable results in reducing the number and severity of wildfires in the state.

The climate is falling EDITOR: oe Biden visits California to blame the fires on “climate change.” Chicken Little got bopped on the head by a falling acorn. Climate has been changing since the beginning of time. Acorns have been falling almost as long. The sky isn’t falling, Joe. CHARLES BERTOLETTE Placerville

We’re more alike than different EDITOR: ecause we are more alike than we are different, it surprises me that in this county many write opinions to this paper that belie this fact. The majority of opinions are attacks against each other rather than attempts to understand the other’s point of view. Surely we can agree to disagree without all the anger that we would find hard to say to someone’s face. It’s anger from a distance. I recommend readers check out the book “Humankind” by Dutch author Rutger Bregman. He reminds us of the story of the Christmas truce of 1914. German and British soldiers began singing holiday songs to one another and came out of their trenches to meet each other and share food and drink. “... if these men-stuck in a horrific war came out of their trenches, then what’s stopping us, here and now, from doing the same?”

I challenge angry opinion writers to meet me outside (after the smoke clears) at the Veterans Memorial in Placerville where we might sit down face to face (I’ll be wearing a mask) to find common ground and put down the poison pens. We might, at the very least, teach our children who are reading the opinion page in their schools exactly how grown ups can agree to disagree in a respectable manner. JOAN DARLING Placerville
Final letter on health care EDITOR: have tried to raise awareness about the state of health care and medical training in the country, but there are too many shiny objects out there distracting attention from the issue — shiny objects that have nothing to do with an individual’s selfinterest but are used to keep fear alive and push emotional buttons. The public seems to be too immersed in their fantasy world of social media to pay any attention to the critical situation we are in. Society has moved too far into Huxley’s dehumanized “Brave New World” to turn back and continues on toward a nihilistic self-gratifying technological world where narcissism and neo-fascism are promoted. To use a term I grew up with in Texas: I am chopping but there aren’t any chips flying. Therefore, I want to leave you with two quotes. First from Carl Sagan: “We’ve arranged a society on science and technology in which nobody understands anything about science and technology, and this combustible mixture of ignorance and power sooner or later is going to blow up in our faces. I mean, who is running the science and technology in a democracy if the people don’t know anything about it? Science is more than a body of knowledge, it’s a way of thinking. If we are not able to ask skeptical questions to interrogate those who tell us something is true, to be skeptical of those in authority, then we’re up for grabs for the next charlatan political or religious leader who comes ambling along. It’s a thing that Jefferson lay great stress on. It wasn’t enough, he said, to enshrine some rights in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, the people had to be educated and they have to practice their skepticism and their education. Otherwise, we don’t run the government, the government runs us.” And last from John Donne: “And therefore, never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.” DALE COCO Cameron Park

Tragic murder highlights broken criminal justice system Kate Tibbitts can’t make this plea to you. She can’t cast a vote or call a legislator or sign a petition for change. She can’t install a security system or add another deadbolt to her Sacramento home. Kate Tibbitts is dead. She was raped, murdered, her pets killed and home TED set on fire by a transient career criminal. Her innocent life ended in horror. Her death, while heartbreaking, is not surprising. Kate’s tragedy can be traced back to political trends and liberal policy decisions that, if not reversed, will leave a longer trail of victims behind. The recall election succeeded in highlighting California’s dysfunction. This administration will be forever linked to raging wildfires, massive and inhumane homeless
camps, Employment Development Department fraud and French Laundry hypocrisy, but what most symbolizes Newsom’s reign, and the madness of the Legislature, is the upside-down view of crime and punishment. The saddest and most GAINES profound symbol of Newsom’s tenure is Kate Tibbitts’ tombstone. California is conducting a realtime experiment implementing the “de-incarceration” philosophy, which paints the criminals themselves as victims of “the system” and considers their imprisonment the true injustice. This is the animating thought behind the emptying of our prisons and the no-cash bail push in the Legislature. Newsom’s administration recently went all-in for de-incarceration by

sidestepping the Legislature and unilaterally green-lighting the early release of more than 70,000 of felons back on to California streets. Expect a crimewave to follow. It’s hard to end up in prison. The myth of a prison sentence for a first-time offender for marijuana possession may be politically appealing to some, but it’s mostly imaginary. Our prisons are stuffed with hardened criminals — violent felons who get paroled and commit new felonies to get back in. Troy Davis, the suspect in Ms. Tibbitts’ murder, has a rap sheet that would defy the belief of a law-abiding citizen. A local newspaper reported Davis’ list of charges includes resisting an officer, battery on an officer, possession of methamphetamine, threatening an officer, misdemeanor sexual battery, assault and battery, assault with a deadly weapon, robbery and other unnamed crimes in June 2021. He was also, according to the
paper, arrested for auto theft this past June and released with zero bail, per state policy. He did not show up for his arraignment and became a “parolee at large.” One-man crime scourge Troy Davis should be in prison. Kate Tibbitts should be alive. But we’ve recently built a system where it’s hard to get in to prison and easy to get out. “Realignment,” Proposition 47 and Proposition 57, Newsom good-time credits increase, Newsom-mandated zero cash bail — all of these policies are pillow-soft on crime. They rob law enforcement of power and the ability to hold criminals accountable. Society suffers as crime explodes. Greenhouse gas reduction is not a concern for Kate Tibbetts. It doesn’t matter that she can’t get a single-use plastic bag at the grocery store or a plastic straw at a restaurant. She

“Without the reinsurance market backing California property/casualty insurance companies, there will continue to be an availability crisis in the state for property insurance and prices for such coverage will continue to increase substantially to the detriment of California’s homeowners and businesses.” The initial state budget signed by Gov. Gavin Newsom appropriated $2 billion for making the state more fire-resilient, but was criticized for spending many billions more on problems of lesser import. Recently, with big fires still burning, the wildfire budget was sharply increased before the Legislature adjourned for the year. Reducing the likelihood of destructive fires is a good step in the right direction, but the insurance crisis demands more — perhaps, even, an entirely new approach.
The state could, for instance, purchase basic disaster insurance for every California property owner — covering earthquakes and floods, as well as fires — and pay for it through some sort of property-based assessment. Property owners could tap the private market for coverage beyond the basic policy’s limits. Through reinsurance, the risk would be spread worldwide and Californians wouldn’t have to worry about scrounging for coverage. The state’s voluntary earthquake insurance program already embodies that concept. There may be other workable approaches, but without new thinking, the insurance crisis will, as Norwood warns, continue to worsen. Dan Walters is a journalist and author who writes for CALmatters.org, a nonprofit, nonpartisan media venture explaining California policies and politics.

Union Mine strikes for four-win streak Thomas Frey Staff writer A giant inflatable diamondback rattlesnake rose from beyond the end zone and it was clear a new, dominating era of Union Mine football has slithered into El Dorado County under first-year head coach Matt Ray. The varsity Diamondbacks had just finished cheering on the junior varsity’s 42-0 win from the sideline and they were full of energy, revving up for the task at hand, letting their presence be known like a snake rattling its tail before attacking. The players waited inside the snake before pouring onto the field proudly with cheerleaders, JV players and bandmates lined up welcoming them to take on Gabe Baker and the Miners of Nevada Union. Baker, a burly 6-3, 245-pound quarterback/ linebacker, was coming off a Colfax game where he had over 500 yards of offense, seven touchdowns and seven tackles leading to him being named the Sacramento Bee Player of the Week. The Diamondbacks completely shut him down defensively while senior quarterback Calvin Owens and his Pancake Mafia offensive line of Jaxon King, Alijah Smith, John Murphy, Jack Clark and Christian Grant piled up six touchdowns in the team’s 41-7 victory over Nevada Union Friday. “We have a bunch of guys that are just understanding their role and playing their role,” said head coach Ray. “That’s when teams become dangerous when you have a bunch of guys willing to do what they need to do.” Union Mine is 4-0 for the first time since 2010 when the club won 10 games including playoff wins over Sonora and Marysville. The defense is allowing an average of 10.8 points per game and winning games by an average of 25 points.
Union Mine’s enormous inflatable rattlesnake mascot made its first appearance of the season before the Diamondbacks’ 41-7 win Friday.
Alijah Smith was one of 13 Diamondbacks football players to run an American flag to midfield in a pregame ceremony honoring the 13 U.S. service members who lost their lives in Afghanistan last month. “It feels nice but we’ve got to stay on the grind and don’t get too confident and just keep doing our thing,” said Owens. After the defense opened the game by forcing a punt, Owens took off from the pocket running 26 yards for a 7-0 lead midway through the first quarter. That first score ignited the Snake Pit — the student cheering section —which was filled and in full force Friday night. On the next Diamondbacks possession, Owens hit senior wide receiver Nick Conant for an 8-yard touchdown catch giving Union Mine a 13-0 lead early in the second quarter. Baker couldn’t get anything going on offense for the Miners, and with 5:35 to play in the second quarter, went for a fourth down and came up short when the stout Diamondbacks came up with the stop. “Everybody said (Baker) was big but I think we handled him
and shut him out,” Owens said. “I don’t think he was a factor.” As Baker kept floundering, the Diamondbacks kept scoring. Owens, who wears No. 2 finished with three rushing touchdowns including a 58-yard score where he diced through the Miners defense before sprinting down the sideline. It was reminiscent of another No. 2 — 2012 Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel. Overall, the Diamondbacks scored five times on the ground after senior Scott Smith scored a 1-yard touchdown and Parker Mallot, the team’s leading rusher, took a 30-yard touchdown run to the house. “The offensive line was more than perfect,” Owens said. “They wore them out and opened the holes up.” Many of the offensive lineman have been varsity starters since they were freshman or

Speedway action returns for Placerville fans Mountain Democrat staff As the number of firefighters assigned to the Caldor Fire continues to shrink, the base camp that had taken over nearly every inch of the El Dorado County Fairgrounds has cleared out of Placerville Speedway’s quarter-mile course. High-octane competition returns this Friday and Saturday with the ground-pounding, earth-shattering excitement of the Malicious Monster Truck Insanity Tour. The 10,000-pound giant beasts will compete in a series of events and showcase their freestyle entertainment. The alcohol-burning
Sacramento Kings star Tyrese Haliburton was on the field to watch what quickly became a rout. Is it time to worry about Oak Ridge? No. Folsom is the top team in Northern California and has multiple players projected to play on Sundays in the National Football League, including wide receiver Rico Flores Jr., who had two touchdown grabs. Maddox Varella got the start at quarterback for Oak Ridge and went 11-18 for 109 yards with no interceptions. Drew Cowart tossed the lone touchdown pass for Oak Ridge to Sean Dwyer. Joey Whiting had an interception for the Trojans.

sophomores and now the “investment is paying off playing all these young guys 2-3 years ago,” according to offensive line coach Taylor Duncan. Mallot’s touchdown run was set up when senior Joe Repass intercepted his second pass of the season and ran it back 40 yards. The following play, Mallot took the handoff into the endzone. “Joe is a really good player,” Ray said. “He’s very intelligent and he’s worked hard in the weight room, getting a lot bigger. He’s just a really good player on both sides of the ball.” Repass has scored six touchdowns offensively this year, recorded 15 tackles and a pair of interceptions defensively while handling the D’backs kicking duties. Although he didn’t catch a

touchdown from Owens, he did have two catches for 34 yards including one for 20 yards. “Calvin was incredible,” Repass said. “His runs and passes were on point. All week he’s been practicing hard preparing for this game and he’s an all-around great player.” The Diamondbacks are ranked in the region’s top 25 for the first time in more than a decade. “We’re not even as good as we can be,” according to Ray who said he was happy to finally be able to play at home after everything the community has gone through with the Caldor Fire, including having a previously scheduled home game canceled. “It was just good to be able to be here with them and have a big night and dominate a good team,” Ray said.

expenditures included a four-wheeldrive pickup for $15,000, a command module insert coming in at $8,377 and two 2021 Ford Inceptor SUVs for $115,839 for the Placerville Police Department. Fuel reduction for city property came in at $409,950 while upgrades for a Town Hall emergency operations center called for $50,000. Other improvements and upgrades include corporation yard revitalization budgeted at $100,000, computer equipment replacement for $54,942 and geographic information system software and training for engineering staff at $20,000. Additional suggested programs were a $50,000 citywide marketing program and a sewer and water bill assistance program, also $50,000. Total proposed expenditures are at $890,166, leaving $446,483 for future projects such as the managed homeless camp at the El Dorado County Jail in Placerville and/or broadband. “Keeping about 30% in reserve allows Placerville some flexibility,” said Placerville resident Sue Rodman, adding that the allotment for fuel reduction was not enough to address that need. “We need to put our money where the biggest threat and greatest needs are.” Council woman Jackie Neau suggested some ARPA funds be allocated to purchase masticators, chainsaws, tractors, etc., for ongoing vegetation management projects. “It’s really important we plan for the future,” she said. “Right now we have an opportunity.” “We could have the equipment sitting there but do we have the staffing to use it?” asked Mayor Dennis Thomas, noting a staffing shortfall in the Public Works Department. “I think it’s a worthwhile
investment,” he said. “I think we would have to put more thought into what the next step would be once we had it in the corp-yard.” “We would need a lot more bodies to run the list of equipment you have there,” said Nick Stone, Public Works director. “We do have a lot of nice equipment up there; it doesn’t get utilized to its full potential.” Vice Mayor Kara Taylor suggested purchasing equipment and offering property clearing services for city residents at the cost of the equipment and staff time. “It would be way less than hiring a commercial outfit to do it,” she said. “I feel comfortable allocating (these) funds … and giving staff discretion to do more research if it makes sense to purchase a couple pieces of equipment,” she continued, reiterating that vegetation management is an ongoing effort. As for the remaining funds, Taylor said she would be fine with making the remaining amount a general fund but cautioned against “chipping away at it without looking at the big picture.” Council woman Patty Borelli said, “Our worst fire months are ahead of us,” suggesting hiring out for vegetation management. The city has nearly 77 acres that need clearing and continued maintenance, according to Terry Zeller, director of Community Services. Ultimately the vegetation management discussion went back to staff to discuss further and return with findings at a later date. Taylor moved that the council approve the resolution but leave the remaining amount of $446,483 open to staff direction with general direction of vegetation management, the managed homeless camp and broadband.

horoscope by Holiday Mathis n today ARIES (March 21-April 19). As you commit to seeing your situation and your role in it more clearly, you will discover who you are, what you want and what matters deeply to you. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The call is to action swift and sure. Once you have decided, follow through with the whole of you. Hesitate and you’ll lose power. Wait and it will only get harder and harder to influence the situation. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Today offers you a free ticket to a different perspective. All you have to do is be willing to check your own way of seeing things outside the door. You can pick it back up on the way out. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Your psychic senses tingle today and you are especially aware of people who are in need. What they need and how you may help is harder to pinpoint. Or you could just ask! LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your values are different from those of another, but that does not have to be a relationship deterrent. The fact that you have values, know them and uphold them well is extremely attractive and an excellent thing to have in common. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You already know the right thing to do in general, but the specifics hang you up. It feels like you’re working harder than you need to. Look around for the person having an easier time of it and start asking questions.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). There’s a distraction monkey on your shoulder ready to interrupt any task that doesn’t promise instant gratification. If you’re to achieve your goal, he must be ignored. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Know what you’re getting into. Step back to see how things and people are connected. One move will have the sort of domino effect that people make videos about; an intricate spiral of collapsing pieces. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The outcome you desire will be achieved through persuasion. However, if your subject feels at all manipulated, the effect will be lost. Build attraction. It is the most powerful persuasion. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’re driven by the spirit of cooperation. Your personal efforts revolve around organizing and supporting others. You create an orderly atmosphere around you so people can understand what to do and fall into line. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). When you see someone in need of assistance, you spring into action. Your movement will wake up the many people who don’t notice too much outside of their own thoughts. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). People do their own growing, often despite themselves. So while you can’t make another person grow up, you can, and will, contribute to circumstances that favor growth.

T
hanks to new funding sources, Friends of the Bayley House may finally be in reach of seeing the complete restoration of the historical property. The Bayley House was deemed California’s best example of classical revival architecture by the Historic American Building Survey. Friends of The Bayley House, a nonprofit organization, is spearheading the grassroots effort to restore the historical structure. Built as a hotel in 1862 by Boston attorney Alcander John Bayley, the building has resided on the National Register of Historic Places since 1978 and is the site of California’s first Grange Hall. “It’s an absolute gem on the ‘golden chain’ of a welltraveled Highway 49 stretching from Nevada City to Sonora,” said Jaime Tafoya, outreach specialist for Friends of the Bayley House. “Few, if any, historical sites remain and command attention like the Gold Rush-era Bayley House.” John Crane, chairman of the Friends of the Bayley House, has an engineering background. He’s also been passionately involved with the project for decades. Crane has been instrumental in the

The historical Bayley House was built in 1861 by AJ Bayley. creation of detailed restoration plans and worked closely with California’s Office of Historic Preservation in 2002, when the project received significant state as well as county funding. The building benefited from stabilization and weatherproofing work overseen by the state Office of Historic Preservation. “Structurally the building was built surprisingly well. Having withstood earthquakes,
vandalism and the ravages of time over more than 150 years,” said Crane. After a 10-year absence, Tafoya (a former board member) was secured as the nonprofit’s new juggernaut to kickstart renewed efforts. “Jaime has an intimate knowledge of the project and brings a passion that equals that of Crane and other longtime members. He has engaged with
numerous funding sources that could provide funding as early as 2022. He has garnered membership in the National Trust for Historic Preservation, the nonprofit support organization Impact Foundry and engaged with the El Dorado County and Sacramento community foundations,” according to a statement released by the n

ant an antidote to the dreary smoke and renewed isolation of recent weeks? It’s the perfect time to plant. And not just a fall veggie garden, but a life-sustaining native garden. Now is the time to get those shovels busy. Fall is the best time of the year to add native plants and perennials to your garden. Temperatures begin cooling and late fall/early winter rains will hopefully help the plants stay moist. These natives will be all ready to jump to life when warm temperatures arrive. They will be ready to start attracting pollinators, providing food for insects and birds and enhancing the life-giving nature of your garden. Choose the location for each plant carefully with defensible space in mind. You don’t want to put any plant within 5 feet of your house. Plants placed against the foundation of your home are referred to as foundation plants. These foundation plants make no sense for our fire prone foothill homes. Be sure to place your plant where at mature size it neither becomes ladder fuel for a tree above, nor will it touch other plants in your landscape. All shrubs and trees in your yard should be well spaced from each other so you have effective defensible space and you won’t have to remove a plant later.
Alice Cantelow UCCE Master Gardener of El Dorado County In getting ready to plant, dig a hole that is as deep as the pot but about twice as wide. As counterintuitive as it seems, you really don’t want to make the hole deeper. The crown, or base of its main stem, should be planted an inch or so higher than the ground level. If you plant level with soil, the ground may settle and the crown of the plant may sink, causing the plant to die. Refill the hole around the plant with the same dirt you removed. In almost all cases, no amendments and certainly no fertilizer, is needed. The roots will then have a nice uniform soil to penetrate from their potting soil. Do consider protecting your plants from deer, especially when the plants are extra tasty straight from the nursery. Continue to protect plants from deer for a few years after until the plant is well established. Thoroughly water the plant so that the soil around and below is damp. You can then water again just once a week or so, being sure to keep the potshortened roots from drying out. Once the fall rains begin, let nature

take over. Be alert for dry winter periods of several weeks or more. If that occurs, you will need to give plants supplemental water. Wondering what natives to plant? An excellent source of information is calscape. org. Enter your address to see several hundred plants native to your area. Narrow your search down to a type of plant, such as tree, shrub or low water and several other categories. Calscape.org offers photos of each plant, specific gardening information, including size, soil type, water needs, flower color, butterflies hosted and more. Local nurseries generally carry a small collection of natives and you can find specialty native nurseries in places like Chico or the Bay Area. Master Gardeners of El Dorado County offers a nice selection of native plants at its annual spring plant sale. The local chapter of the California Native Plant Society offers a COVID-adapted online native plant sale in early October, making plants from several outlying specialty native nurseries available right here to El Dorado County.

Barton Labor & Delivery nurse received special Thea Hardy Barton Health SOUTH LAKE TAHOE — Stephanie Clayton, a registered labor and delivery nurse with Barton’s Family Birthing Center, has been selected as the DAISY Award winner for extraordinary nurses. The award is in recognition of the clinical skill and compassionate care nurses provide to create a superior experience for patients and their families. Clayton was nominated by a patient who received her medical support through two pregnancies at Barton Memorial Hospital. Labor and Delivery nurses have an important job of bringing new life safely into the world. Some primary responsibilities include monitoring vital signs, not only of the expectant mother but the unborn baby as well and assisting during labor. Nurses provide support, confidence

Stephanie Clayton, RN, holds her DAISY Award. and encouragement throughout the process; the best nurses elevate the already memorable experience. “[Stephanie] has been my nurse through a difficult pregnancy
and two births at Barton. She goes above and beyond what is expected of her and was particularly helpful even after my delivery when I needed help with breastfeeding,” said
Lily Kirkhouse, a recent patient of Clayton’s, who submitted the nomination. “Her caring nature and ability to stay on top of all of her patients’ needs definitely makes her worthy of a DAISY Award.” Clayton received her RN degree at the University of Memphis in Memphis, Tenn., and has been a nurse for 15 years. She landed at Barton as a traveling nurse three-and-a-half years ago; she loved the team and atmosphere so much that she chose to stay. When she’s not welcoming Tahoe’s newest residents into the world, Clayton enjoys traveling. Her passion for international backpacking allows her to immerse herself in other cultures, explore natural landscapes and ground herself in yoga and meditation retreats. Clayton has participated in international medical missions in Vietnam, Thailand and the Dominican Republic and looks forward to continuing this

philanthropic work in the future. “My favorite part of my job is meeting new people daily — patients and staff — and finding something similar that connects me to them,” said Clayton. “I am constantly learning from my patients and able to observe the beauty
of how every woman and family experiences childbirth differently.” Nurses may be nominated by patients and families and the award recipient is chosen anonymously by a committee at Barton Health. As a See Award, page B4

CNPS offers fire recovery landscaping information Mountain Democrat staff Replanting with native plants can use less water and, in some cases, offer fire resistance to home hardening efforts, according to the California Native Plant Society. “We extend our deep sympathies to all those who lost property in the destructive Caldor Fire,” said Alice Cantelow, president of the El Dorado Chapter of CNPS. “As homes are rebuilt, we hope folks realize that native plants can be helpful for habitat as well as often fire-resistant, especially if planted in places well-spaced from other vegetation. As we all know, rebuilding with homes hardened against fire and with carefully spaced plantings will go a long way toward creating more fire resilient communities.” Native plant selection can be a daunting task according to the California Native Plant Society, but the society offers a bevy of resources to help landowners make decisions right for their location. For help in selecting the right native plants visit calscape.org. For more information on fire recovery including replanting, natural growth, tree health and a host of other fire recovery topics visit cnps.org/give/ priority-initiatives/fire-recovery. After the Paradise Fire, Butte County produced a “Fire recovery
resources for landowners” document that has a wealth of information on the topic. It can be found at bcrcd.org/fire-recovery-resources-for-landowners. The CNPS also produces a helpful document at cnps.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/cnps-firerecovery-guide-2019.pdf. The California Native Plant Society, El Dorado chapter hosts two upcoming events:
Plant sale The Native Plant Sale sale will be online only, Sept. 24 through Oct. 9. Shoppers can choose from a special selection of plants procured from the best native plant growers in northern California, particularly El Dorado County. The chapter’s new plant sale webpage is at shop.edcnps.org. (Not active until Sept. 24.). Shoppers can also find the link on the Homegrown Habitat Facebook page, a page for native plant gardening in El Dorado County. Chapter members recommend shopping early for the best selection. Perennial grasses, shrubs, trees and groundcovers will be available in 4-inch pots and 1-gallon sizes. CNPS members will get to shop two days prior to the sale being available to the public and receive a 10% discount on all purchases made during the sale. Purchases must be paid for
at the time of purchase online with credit cards. All sales are final. A limited number and selection of plants will also be available for purchase at the time of pick up. Pick up of orders will be on Saturday, Oct. 16, by appointment, noon to 3 p.m., in the parking lot in front of the El Dorado County Government Center, Building C, 2850 Fairlane Court in Placerville. The appointment time will be generated automatically when you check out.
A Landscape Primer At the Sept. 28 meeting of the EDC-CNPS Dr. Debra Ayres will introduce guests to the nuts and bolts of landscape design. She will guide everyone through landscape analysis with the help of her questionnaire (tinyurl.com/Gardenanalyze ), giving specific examples of how the process works (see below before and after pictures). Finally, she will discuss plant selection featuring native California plants. The meeting begins at 7 p.m. and is free and open to the public. Register online at tinyurl.com/ EDC-CNPS. The California Native Plant Society, El Dorado chapter is always willing to help answer any questions. They can be found at facebook.com/ ElDoradoCNPS.

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.

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.

Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority. A hearing on the petition will be held in this court as follows: October 27, 2021 at 8:30 a.m. in Dept. 8 at 295 Fair Lane, Placerville, CA 95667 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. YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250.
