Board denies ‘tourist home’ permit in Green Valley

Sets moratorium in rural residential areas Todd R. Hansen

thansen@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — The Solano County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday denied an application for a short-term vacation rental use permit in the Green Valley Highlands, then set a temporary moratorium on any new permits in rural residential zones. One of the issues is unhosted versus hosted rentals – an issue that helped Supervisor Erin Hannigan vote to deny the application by Gerald Heyman and Amanda Rothstein at 4376 Edinburg Court. Hannigan said she would never support an unhosted rental in a residential area. The board denial came on a 4-1 vote. Supervisor Jim Spering described his vote as a “reluctant no.” The moratorium buys the hannigan county time to come up with a new short-term rental vacation ordinance that specifically addresses the rural residential concerns. Tourist homes have been a contentious issue in the county, and specifically in residential areas. The supervisors approved an ordinance in 2018 that mashburn permitted the rental homes virtually anywhere in the unincorporated area, but it required a use permit. One of the primary motivations was to support agritourism, and specifically in the Suisun Valley. Since adopting that ordinance, only four properties have spering received permits, while county officials readily admit there are many others that are operating illegally without a permit. The Green Valley Highlands property was one of those that first opened as a tourist home without a permit. Complaints from the neighbors, ranging from noise to fire risk, put a spotlight on that property. So the property owners applied for the permit and first went to the Solano County Planning Commission for approval. That panel, with only four members at the time, twice deadlocked on a 2-2 vote, which took the matter to the Board of Supervisors. Heyman argued before the supervisors that he and his wife have done everything asked of them by the county planning staff to come into compliance. He said to deny it would only encourage others to operate without a permit. The staff recommended approval of the permit. The public hearing drew a great number of written and verbal comments on both sides, and at times those comments became controversial in their own right. Heyman suggested that one of the possible reasons his neighbors opposed their tourist home was because he had rented to people of color.

FAIRFIELD — The roller coaster that has been the Solano County coronavirus case reporting is back on the thrill of a downward slide. The Public Health Division reported 32 new cases Tuesday. It was the first day since April 20 when the number was below 35. The month has had an average of about 41 cases per day. That compares to March when the daily average was just under 37. The new reports put the total number of cases for the pandemic at 32,345. Dr. Bela Matyas, the county public health officer, said it was also encouraging to see hospitalizations drop back to the more “reasonable” level of 20 individuals. He also noted that the county is now 81.7% toward its goal of vaccinating 225,000 individuals – or about two-thirds of the county’s adult popula-

There were no new Covid-related deaths reported, and the seven-day positivity testing rate was 5.5%, the county reported. Active cases appeared to take a dramatic jump from 214 to 330, but Matyas said the 214 figure was a misprint and should have been 314 Monday. Vacaville had the most new cases with 10, taking its total to 8,444. Vallejo added nine cases for a count of 9,630. Fairfield is at 8,790 after six new cases, the county reported.

trying (with little luck) to sleep. Seconds before the train left the station, I saw my husband on the platform wildly waving goodbye with both arms. Laughing, I waved back and realized, as I often do, how I always see home in his eyes. Then the whistle blew, the train lurched forward and I was on my way. An attendant came by to take my order for dinner. A short while later she was back with a plate of braised beef with polenta, a salad and a “blondie” for dessert. I was glad to get it. After dinner, she came back to pull the two facing seats into a fairly decent single bed. At some point, I drifted off and dreamed I was a little girl again, in the house by the railroad track. Back then, I loved to climb up in an apple tree and wait for the train to go by. When I spotted the engineer, I’d yank my arm up and

The collection, titled “Royal Style in the Making,” will run from June 3 to Jan. 2. “Our summer exhibition at Kensington Palace will shine a spotlight on some of the greatest talents of British design, whose work has been instru-

Imagine my surprise to wake in the wee hours of the morning and realize I wasn’t dreaming. The whistle was real. I was on board. And the train was taking me to yet another home – one I always find in the eyes of my children and grandchildren. When my kids were growing up, I often told them their home would always be with me. But no matter how far they roamed, I said – to college or marriage or strange, foreign places like Kathmandu or California – they would always be at home. Why? Because home is a feeling. We carry it with us wherever we go. We see it in the eyes of our loved ones, or even in the eyes of a dog. But we see it most clearly in the mirror.

The sun wasn’t up yet when we pulled into Dunsmuir. The attendant helped me drag my bags off the train. Only a few people were waiting at the station, including one fellow who lay snoring on a bench and seemed in no hurry to leave. Suddenly, I was wrapped in a bear hug. I’d know it anywhere. When my boys hug you, you know you’ve been hugged. “Hey, Mama,” said my oldest, with his beautiful grin. He took my bags in one arm, me in the other, and we walked to his car. “Jonah’s still sleeping,” he said, “but he’ll be up soon and he’ll be so excited to see you!” So we drove to Jonah’s house.

Supervisors move toward minor use permits for private road land uses Todd R. Hansen

thansen@dailyrepublic.net

FAIR F IELD — Minor use permits will soon be required for special events and shortterm vacation rentals on property accessed by private roads. The Board of Supervisors introduced an Tuesday ordinance that upgrades the requirement from an administrative permit. Protecting the right to farm was a critical issue raised during the discussion. A series of urgency ordinances have been in place since October 2019 to address “health and safety concerns” that arose, in part, due to disputes between neighbors on some of those roads. Road standards, emergency response access and other issues are addressed in the ordinance. The board also requested special event properties maintain commercial insurance and provide a notice to those renting the special event location about the right to farm standard in the county. Use permits give staff more flexibility in setting requirements. They also allow neighbors to weigh in on the matter. “A use permit also includes legal findings that give the county the necessary discretion to not approve an application where there are unresolvable issues such as incompatibility with a neighborhood. This is important in cases where there may be disputes over the use of a private road,” the staff report states. The new ordinance will not affect homebased businesses already allowed by administrative permits, or various agribusinesses in the Suisun Valley that are consistent with the Suisun Valley Strategic Plan. In other action, the board: n Approved a notice of completion for the Department of Child Support Services Relocation Project to the fifth floor of the government center, 675 Texas St., in Fairfield. The contractor was American River Construction Inc. of Pla-

cerville. The cost was $4.02 million, of which $2.12 million was construction. The fund balance was $314,429. n Added the job classification of Claims and Civil Litigation Manager with a monthly salary range of $8,815.26 to $10,715. n Reinstated the job classification of Airport Maintenance Worker with a monthly salary range of $4,320.83 to $5,252, and deleted a full-time equivalent Building Trades Mechanic position. n Added a full-time Accounting Clerk II position and deleted a 0.75 full-time equivalent Accounting Clerk III position in the District Attorney’s Office. The anticipated additional cost for the remainder of this fiscal year is about $1,458 per month in salary and benefits, and an annual increase of $23,000 in salary and benefits for the 2021-22 fiscal year. n Approved a threeyear, $205,533 contract with Governmentjobs. com Inc., doing business as NEOGOV, for applicant tracking and onboarding services from May 1 through April 30, 2024. n Received the Auditor-Controller’s Internal Audit Division’s Internal Control Review of the District Attorney Series 05 Warrant Disbursement Process for Controls in Place as of June 30, 2020. The report found the account reconciliation is insufficient; and disbursement of monies to victims not made in a timely manner. n Received the Auditor-Controller’s Internal Audit Division’s Internal Control Review of the Sheriff’s Office Series 06 and 07 (inmate funds) Warrant Disbursement Process for Controls in Place as of June 30, 2020. The report found no deficiencies. n Approved a telecommunications license agreement between the county and Vallejo to use a portion of Solano County’s Vallejo Courthouse radio site, at 1340 Virginia St., for public safety needs. The county will receive $18,000 in the first year, and 5% more each subsequent year.

Jan. 27, 1928 — April 14, 2021

C h a r l e s ‘Charlie’ Foon Lum passed away peacefully at home on his farm on April 14, 2021. Charlie was born in Suisun City, California, on Jan. 27, 1928, to Dan and Elsie Foon. He was the third of seven children. Charlie grew up in Suisun Valley and attended Armijo High School, where he excelled in several sports like football and track. In 1950, he married Jessie Hong Lee and they moved to their farm on Mankas Corner. Charlie worked on the farm with his father and brother Ed. In their success, they expanded to several other ranches in Suisun Valley, growing tomatoes, persimmons, pears, prunes and more. Charlie loved driving the D6 Bulldozer, and he stubbornly drove it well into his 80s. Charlie and Jessie raised their six children on the farm. Home was where his heart was and family was the most important thing to him; his greatest pride was the success of the farm and how it enabled them to invest in the success and education of their children and grandchildren. He and Jessie loved to host meals at the ranch or at home for their family and friends. Charlie loved playing cards, gambling, playing

States From Page A3 Furthermore, Gov. Gavin Newsom declared a state emergency due to the drought. There is particular concern related to the Russian River watershed and salinity concerns for the Delta region. The governor ordered “an economic analysis of drought impacts to agriculture, including land use, jobs and rural food economies, expanding on existing research done in the last drought to include thorough regional analysis especially in the Central Valley, and in the implementation of the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act and alternative land uses for fallowed land.” A web page with drought resources for farmers and ranchers will be established. Solano County has been included in a U.S. Department of Agriculture Secretarial disaster designation due to drought. “ T h is desig nation makes emergency farm loans for physical and crop production losses available for up to $500,000. The application deadline is Nov. 5,” according to information provided by the Solano County Office of Emergency Services. Ed King, the agriculture commissioner for Solano County, said the entire county, as of Thursday, is listed by the U.S. Drought Monitor as in an “extreme drought” area. Prior to that, only the northern area of the county had been listed. The dry conditions are particularly tough on cattle and sheep ranchers, with poor forage conditions created by a second straight year of drought. King said most growers will do OK this year, but it is likely the county’s ag interests will be pulling more groundwater than usual. “Growers are depending on their surface water deliveries and hoping their ag wells will get them through,” King said. The QuoteWizard numbers put California fourth among the states with the highest wildfire risk, trailing only Montana, with 28.5% of its properties at extreme risk of wildfires; Idaho at 26.2% of its properties at extreme risk of wildfires; and Colorado at 16.9% of its properties at extreme risk of wildfires. None of those states are suffering through the same levels of drought, the report states. “In 2020 alone, 57,000 wildfires burned through 10.3 million acres, killed 37 people and caused (more than) $19.8 billion in damages,” the report states.

Ag assistance resources • Link to the USDA information on farm loans: https://www. fsa.usda.gov/ programs-andservices/farm-loanprograms/index. • Link to Farm Service Agency loan applications: https:// www.fsa.usda.gov/ Assets/USDA-FSAPublic/usdafiles/ Farm-LoanPrograms/pdfs/ your_guide_to_ farm_loans.pdf. • To get alerted about emergencies and other important community news, sign up for Alert Solano at https:// member.everbridge. net/453003085614 570/login.

The group analyzed property risk data from the Federal Emergency Management Agency and “found that (more than) 11.2 million properties are at risk and that drought levels are almost 50% higher than they were in 2020.” “High levels of drought are especially concerning given the growing number of wildfire disaster declarations. We found there were 363 FEMA Wildfire Disaster declarations from 1980 to 1999 and 2,016 from 2000 to 2019. This uptick is especially noticeable in Texas and California where many of the country’s wildfires take place,” the report states. FEMA has declared 321 wildfire disasters in California since 2001. State law does not require a property owner to have fire coverage, but virtually all mortgage companies do. “If you live in an area with low capability for dealing with wildfires, you will at least see higher home insurance rates. In some high-risk areas, you may not be able to get homeowners insurance at all,” the report states. “If you find yourself in either position, you may be able to get wildfire insurance coverage from your state’s Fair Access to Insurance Requirements Plan. It’s set in place to make sure you can get fire coverage for your home at a reasonable cost,” the report states, but adds that such a plan is not “a substitute for standard home insurance coverage, as it only covers hazard insurance.” California has an average insurance rate of $1,684. The national average is $1,215, according to information provided by the National Interagency Fire Center. Solano County officials have said that the best way to protect your homes and property is to create defensible space around those structures.

Biden to meet with Carter this week President Joe Biden will meet with former President Jimmy Carter and his wife Rosalynn during his swing through Georgia to celebrate his first 100 days in office, White House officials said. Biden is set to visit Carter in his hometown of Plains in southwest Georgia during the trip Thursday, which will also involve a drive-in rally at an unspecified location in metro Atlanta. Biden and Carter have a long and fruitful relationship. Biden was a first-term U.S. senator from Delaware when Carter took office, and the Georgia Democrat said he was his first and most effective supporter in the upper chamber.

Clash over punishment, crime looms

hould California continue to reduce punishment for crimes large and small, or has it gone too far and implicitly allowed criminals to prey upon Californians without fear of imprisonment? The question has reverberated throughout the state over the past half-decade, ever since former Gov. Jerry Brown lunched a personal crusade to scale back the lock-‘em-up laws that California enacted – including some that he signed – in the 1980s and 1990s. California voters will answer it next year by either giving newly appointed Attorney General Rob Bonta, a fervent Dan Walters believer in the softer approach to crime, a full term or replacing him with someone with a tougher attitude toward lawbreakers. The conflict jelled Monday when Sacramento County District Attorney Anne Marie Schubert declared her candidacy, saying, “The California criminal justice system is in chaos” due to laws and policies that value rehabilitation over punishment. Schubert devoted much of her announcement to denouncing Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascón and San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin as “rogue prosecutors,” criticizing state legislators for ignoring crime victims in their rush to soften punishments, and tying Bonta to them. “Rob Bonta has no regard for crime victims,” Schubert told The Sacramento Bee in a pre-anouncement interview. “I think Rob Bonta is similar, if not identical, to the district attorney in San Francisco and Los Angeles.” In Schubert, the state’s criminal justice traditionalists probably have their strongest challenger to Bonta, a state legislator who was selected by Gov. Gavin Newsom as a successor to Xavier Becerra after the latter joined the Biden administration in Washington. While moderate Republican Nathan Hochman, former assistant U.S. attorney in the Bush administration, also is running, he is little known while Schubert, a former Republican who is not registered with a political party, achieved statewide and even national attention for recently prosecuting serial rapist and murderer Joseph James DeAngelo Jr. Dubbed the Golden State Killer, DeAngelo, a former policeman, was tied to the decades-old crime spree by a novel use of DNA evidence. Schubert can expect support from all but a handful of the state’s other local prosecutors and police organizations, which have opposed efforts by Brown and like-minded legislators to soften punishment. She surrounded herself with families of crime victims as she announced her candidacy. Bonta, on the other hand, will be backed by the national criminal justice reform movement that has been working state-by-state and county-by-county to replace traditionalist prosecutors with those favoring rehabilitation over incarceration. Billionaire investor George Soros has been one of the major drivers behind the movement. Schubert, in fact, had overcome such a challenge in winning re-election three years ago. When Gascón, who had been San Francisco’s district attorney, moved to Los Angeles and unseated District Attorney Jackie Lacey in 2020, it marked a new intensity in the philosophical clash. He, Boudin and two other like-minded district attorneys have battled with the California District Attorneys Association over policy issues and formed their own group, the Prosecutors Alliance of California, to push for criminal justice reforms. The next big California battle for the contending factions was to have been in Orange County, where District Attorney Todd Spitzer, a former Republican legislator, will face Peter Hardin, a Democrat and former prosecutor, next year. However, Becerra’s resignation, Bonta’s appointment and Schubert’s declaration of candidacy create an even more intense showdown over crime and punishment in the nation’s most populous state. Should Schubert prevail next year, it would not only be a big win for criminal justice traditionalists, but also make her a potential candidate for governor or U.S. Senate thereafter.

exposed faces outside anytime soon. The reason is because, as Chicago internist Dr. Jay Bhatt put it, “the risk is not zero.” That may be true, but you know what else fails to drive the risk of Covid-19 infection to zero? Wearing a face covering. Getting vaccinated. Leaving the house. Not leaving the house. There’s always going to be at least a slight risk of infection, no matter how cautious we are. But restrictions are most effective when they focus on the riskiest activities rather than trying to reduce all risk to zero, which is impossible in any case. It’s also counterproductive to force heavy-handed restrictions on people when there’s no evidence they are necessary. It miscommunicates the real risk for infection to those who aren’t up on the facts, while just annoying those who are. Case in point: California health officials decided to shut down outdoor playgrounds along with all sorts of other public locations last fall as Covid-19 cases began spiking. But they did so despite the fact that there was no evidence that monkey bars and swing sets are Covid-19 vectors, and people knew it. The backlash from frustrated parents was so swift and severe (and justified) that the ill-advised action was almost immediately reversed. It makes you wonder how many people decided at that moment that public health officials just didn’t know what they were talking about and stopped following any of their advice. C’mon, it’s time to ease up on the face mask rules for outdoors. It’s time to give the people who have been faithfully following face masks protocols a low-risk break.

Stones guitarist Wood privately battled cancer during lockdown Tribune Content Agency Ronnie Wood of the Rolling Stones has been given the “all-clear” after a private diagnosis of small-cell cancer, he said in a new interview. “I had lung cancer in 2017 and I had smallcell more recently that I fought in the last lockdown,” the English guitarist told British tabloid The Sun in a report published Sunday. Wood, 73, reportedly learned of his small-cell diagnosis during the shutdowns that stemmed from Covid-19, and said a “higher power” helped him through his battle with an aggressive and rare form of the disease. “I’m going through a

lot of problems now, but throughout my recovery, you have to let it go,” Wood told The Sun. “And when you hand the outcome over to your higher power, that is a magic thing.” A representative for Wood also confirmed his diagnosis to Rolling Stone magazine. Small-cell refers to the “appearance of the cancer cells under the microscope,” and can affect multiple parts of a person’s body, including the lungs or prostate, the Mayo Clinic says on its website. Wood previously had a portion of his lung removed during his past battle with lung cancer.

suit contract, though, notwithstanding the evidence from this deal, you rarely win more than two tricks from any one suit. Instead, you hope to get one or two tricks from enough suits to defeat the contract. So, short, strong holdings make great leads against trump contracts. In this auction, North’s three spades is a limit raise, showing at least four trumps, eight losers and 10-12 support points (high-card points plus short-suit points). Against three no-trump, West should lead the heart six, fourth-highest from his longest and strongest. That could also prove best against four spades, but I much prefer the diamond king. A good partner will have the jack, and an excellent partner will hold the ace. Here, if West leads a spade, heart or club, declarer will win 12 tricks.

Vaccine hoarding set to backfire on rich nations as India reels from outbreak Tribune Content Agency For months, developed economies have hoarded Covid-19 vaccines and the raw materials needed to make them. Now, they’re being forced to act as an explosive outbreak in India raises the risk of new virus mutations that could threaten the wider world. Under mounting criticism for dominating vaccine resources, the U.S. said this week that it will help India by sending items needed to manufacture vaccines as part of an aid package. European countries are also pledging help as new cases in the South Asian country smash world records. President Joe Biden’s administration is separately vowing to share its stockpile of AstraZeneca Plc vaccines – which the U.S. hasn’t even approved for use – and meeting with drug companies about boosting supply and waiving intellectual property protections on Covid-19 shots, a shift India and South Africa have been pushing for. The moves show a growing realization that the vaccine nationalism many wealthy nations have embraced has the potential to backfire, prolonging the global pandemic. While those countries have been cornering supplies of the first vaccines for their world-leading rollouts, places like India have run short, allowing the virus to run wild. Some scientists have linked the nation of 1.3 billion people’s second wave to a more virulent strain, with the out-of-control outbreak providing a petri dish for further muta-

People queue up to receive a dose of a Covid-19 coronavirus vaccine at a vaccination center in Mumbai, Tuesday. tions to evolve that could challenge the vaccines now being distributed from the U.K. to Israel. “There is certainly potential for new variants to emerge in a country the size of India that could pose a threat elsewhere,” said Ramanan Laxminarayan, founder of the New Delhi and Washingtonbased Center for Disease Dynamics, Economics & Policy. “It is in the world’s interest to ensure that India exits the pandemic at the earliest, and vaccination is the only way.” While viruses undergo changes all the time, not all are significant. But some new strains in other parts of the world have ignited concerns because they could be more contagious. Earlier this year, data showed that AstraZeneca’s vaccine was less effective against one variant that emerged in South Africa.

India’s variant – a strain named B.1.617 – is already raising alarms. It has two critical mutations that make it more likely to transmit and escape prior immunity that has been built up, Anurag Agrawal, the director of India’s Council of Scientific and Industrial Research’s genomics institute, told Bloomberg last week. Rakesh Mishra, the director of the Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology in Hyderabad, one of the labs working to sequence virus samples in India, said this variant appears to be more infectious, but it isn’t likely to cause more deaths. Also, the AstraZeneca vaccine and another from India’s Bharat Biotech International Ltd. have been shown to be effective against it in preliminary data, he said. India’s health ministry hasn’t confirmed if this variant is more

transmissible, and a spokesperson for the federal health ministry could not be immediately reached. And at the rate infections are occurring in India, B.1.617 won’t be the only or last variant of concern out of India’s second wave. “I fear there may be more trouble coming,” said William Haseltine, a former Harvard Medical School professor and HIV researcher who now chairs think tank Access Health International. “There are already second and possibly third generation variant of the B.1.617 circulating in India. These may be more dangerous than is the B.1.617 variant itself.” India’s second wave is certainly more destructive. Hospitals and crematoriums are cracking under pressure, while Indians

are begging on social media for everything from oxygen cylinders to drugs. Almost 3,000 people are dying every day, with experts saying that figure likely underplays the real toll. The daily death rate is almost double what it was at the height of the first wave, stoking speculation the new variant, or other mutations, are to blame. Brazil, another developing country that has struggled to ramp up vaccines, suffered from a virus strain that’s said to be responsible for a much higher Covid death rate. Public health experts now see a ramped up vaccination effort as key to quelling outbreaks like the one in India. But despite being home to the world’s largest vaccine industry, India’s immunization drive has slowed in recent weeks and many states are warning that their supplies have almost dried up. The shortages have partly been blamed on bottlenecks related to a few key items, with Adar Poonawalla – the chief executive officer of the Serum Institute of India Ltd., the country’s biggest vaccine producer and AstraZeneca’s manufacturing partner – increasingly pointing to the U.S. Poonawalla has repeatedly called on the U.S. to release shipments of critical raw materials, saying the U.S. invoking the Defence Production Act to curb exports of some ingredients and bolster its own industry is one of the main reasons behind the

slowdown in shots. “It’s the shortage of critical input materials that is becoming a real bottleneck,” Rajinder Suri, chief executive officer of the Developing Countries Vaccine Manufacturers’ Network, said at a briefing on Friday. “If anyone of the components is missing, the entire chain comes to a grinding halt. The problem is that most of these materials are coming from the U.S.” The items that many vaccine makers have been struggling to get hold of include glass vials, single-use filters and bioreactor bags, according to the majority of 15 suppliers, developers and contract manufacturers surveyed ahead of a Chatham House summit last month. However, the scale of the problem, even within industry groups, has been hard to quantify due to a lack of data. As the scale of India’s virus emergency rose to global prominence this week, the offers of aid and doses started to come. Besides the U.S.’s commitments, the U.K., France and Germany have also pledged aid and much needed oxygen tanks for India. Still, a more marked shift in the way developed countries view vaccines will likely be needed. Even if the U.S. did send all of its 60 million AstraZeneca doses to India, it would have a limited impact on a population of its size. There are also other parts of the vast developing world that are yet to see shots, or consistent supplies.

NC governor calls for special prosecutor to investigate shooting of Andrew Brown Tribune Content Agency RALEIGH, N.C. — As national attention has focused on Elizabeth City following the shooting death of Andrew Brown Jr. by Pasquotank County deputies, North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper is calling for a special prosecutor to investigate. “This would help assure the community and Mr. Brown’s family that a decision on pursuing criminal charges is conducted without bias,” Cooper said in a statement released Tuesday

afternoon. “This position is consistent with the change in the law recommended by our Task Force for Racial Equity in Criminal Justice which calls for a special prosecutor in police shootings.” Cooper’s statement came amid a busy and emotional day in Elizabeth City on Tuesday. In the morning, attorneys for the Brown family held a news conference to release the results of a private autopsy. It concluded that Brown died from a “kill shot to the back of the head.”

On Tuesday afternoon, the Rev. William Barber II and a group of faith leaders met in Elizabeth City and called for North Carolina Attorney General Josh Stein to take over the case. Barber called local authorities “inept, incompetent and incapable.” Stein tweeted support Tuesday for the State Bureau of Investigation’s work on the case. “A number of people have asked me to take over this prosecution. I want to clarify that under North Carolina law, the District

Attorney, not the Attorney General, controls the prosecution of criminal cases,” Stein tweeted. “For my office to play a role in the prosecution, the District Attorney must request our assistance. My office has reached out to District Attorney Andrew Womble to offer that assistance, which he has acknowledged.” Also Tuesday, the FBI announced that it was launching a civil rights investigation into the Brown shooting.

Masks: Should still be worn indoors

rates, and research showing that less than 10% of virus transmission occurs outdoors. “Today, I hope, is a day when we can take another step back to the normalcy of before,” Walensky said. According to CDC data, more than 215 million shots have been injected across the U.S. since Biden took office. Two-thirds of American seniors, who are among the most vulnerable to Covid-19, have been fully vaccinated, according to the CDC, and rates are steadily ticking up among other demographics as well. Gov. Andrew Cuomo, speaking at an outdoor event later in upstate Johnson City, near Binghamton, said the CDC guidance would take effect immediately state-

wide in New York. “That is liberating, especially now that the weather is getting warmer,” he said. Still, Cuomo cautioned that New York isn’t completely out of the pandemic woods yet. “Twenty-six people died yesterday from Covid, so there’s a nuance to the message. We’re making progress. People are getting vaccinated, positivity is coming down, but Covid is still dangerous,” he said. “So remember this is still a serious threat.” Walensky echoed that sentiment, saying that continued mask usage in indoor and large-scale outdoor settings will protect both vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals. “Until more people

are vaccinated and while we still have more than 50,000 cases a day, mask use indoors will provide extra protection,” she said. Nonetheless, the new guidelines even give some reprieve to unvaccinated individuals, saying they can skip masks while exercising outside with members of their households and attending small outdoor gatherings with family and friends. Mayor Bill de Blasio suggested he’d like New Yorkers to continue to err on the side of mask caution. “The federal government is saying you don’t have to. I think a lot of people will still choose to – or at least a lot of the time – will choose to,” he said in a briefing from City Hall. “I expect a lot of the time, I will, for sure.” While the science supports the CDC’s move, de Blasio health adviser Jay Varma also said the Big Apple is unique among American cities when it comes to population density and suggested that should be taken into account. “Our environment is very different than most parts of the United States, where people drive in cars and they’re not walking on a crowded, busy street around other people,” Varma said. “So we also have to factor in things like norms, politeness, getting people habituated.”

problems at two other homes in Arizona. Heyman described the complaints against their homes as unfounded or taken out of context. But some of those concerns included advertising renting the Highlands property beyond the 10-person limit – essentially creating a hotel by code – and offering to sell wine without a license. Heyman emphasized that all those issues had been resolved. Addition-

ally, he and his wife went beyond the requirements by installing noise monitors, security cameras and turning the property into a no-smoking zone for their guests. Supervisor Mitch Mashburn made an initial motion to continue the matter until the board took up the moratorium issue, and in turn created a new ordinance, but rescinded that motion and pushed for denial. Supervisor Monica

Brown, who has been a vocal opponent of tourist homes in residential areas, seconded the motion, but had it amended so Heyman and his wife would not have to pay the application fees again if they choose to re-apply under the new ordinance. The moratorium does not affect properties with existing permits, but it does put on hold the three permit applications that are in the pipeline.

From Page One in coming weeks. Under the updated CDC guidance, fully vaccinated individuals – who are defined as those who have gone at least 14 days since receiving their final shot – can exercise, walk, bike, attend small gatherings outside, and dine and drink at outdoor restaurants and bars without wearing masks. Vaccinated individuals can unmask even in instances where they’re socializing in small groups with people who aren’t yet fully immunized, the guidance says. Masks should still be worn indoors and while attending largescale outdoor events, like concerts, parades and sporting events, regardless of vaccination status, according to the CDC. The recommendations were announced earlier in the day by Dr. Rochelle Walensky, the director of the CDC, which for the better part of the past year recommended universal mask-wearing in nearly all public settings as Covid-19 claimed more than570,000livesintheU.S. Speaking on a conference call with Walensky reporters, said the mask modifications were a product of surging vaccination numbers, plummeting Covid-19 infection, hospitalization and death

Permit From Page One It was a comment that one caller refuted and called “insulting.” Instead, she urged the board to simply look at the property owners’ own history, not only in running an unpermitted house in Green Valley, but what have been a number of reported

Beware, 49ers: The iffy odds Mac Jones, Trey Lance and Justin Fields pan out as top draft picks Eric Branch SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE

he first quarterback to win a Super Bowl, Green Bay’s Bart Starr, was drafted in the 17th round. And the last quarterback to win a Super Bowl, Tampa Bay’s Tom Brady, was selected in the sixth round. This is not to suggest the path to a title begins

ANALYSIS in the dregs of the draft, but it’s one of many ways to offer this reminder: The NFL’s most important position remains its most vexing when it comes to evaluating college prospects. The endless examples of players such as Starr starring – and the much ballyhooed busting – is particularly relevant with

the 49ers poised to select Ohio State’s Justin Fields, Alabama’s Mac Jones or North Dakota State’s Trey Lance with the No. 3 pick Thursday night. There’s an excellent chance at least one of them will flop, despite being so highly regarded. Consider: Of the 48 QBs selected with a top-three pick in the Super Bowl era, 24 have been voted to a Pro Bowl with

the team that drafted them and six have won a title. Why is it just a 50-50 proposition to land a top quarterback when teams have a premium selection? Don’t ask ESPN’s Mel Kiper, the world’s longesttenured NFL draftnik. Kiper has first-round grades on five QBs, a group that includes headliners Trevor Lawrence of Clemson

and Zach Wilson of BYU. But he understands he’ll likely have plenty of company in being spectacularly wrong on more than one. “I think two are going to be bad,” Kiper said. “Out of these five, there’s probably going to be two disappointments. One will be a complete bust. And one will be disappointment. That’s what history tells us. Who are they

going to be? I don’t have crystal ball for that.” One of college football’s signature figures, ESPN’s Kirk Herbstreit, a former Ohio State QB, is routinely surprised by how many All-Americans are average-to-awful in the NFL. He specifically mentioned Matt Leinart, the No. 10 pick in See 49ers, Page B10

his emotions when, three pulled pills from the end of the Tuesday’s postposition draw, his Florida Derby winner Known Agenda drew the inside post for the 3:57 p.m. race at Churchill Downs. Blue Grass Stakes winner Essential Quality was made the 2-1 morning-line favorite for Saturday. He’ll start from post position No. 14. Santa Anita Derby winner Rock Your World, who will be positioned

one spot outside the leader in post 15, is 5-1. Stuck down on the rail, with 19 colts to his right, Known Agenda is at 6-1. “It’s not the one we wanted,” Pletcher said of the post, “but we’ve got a good jockey (Irad Ortiz Jr.) and hopefully he can make the right moves. We’ll just try to focus on the things we can control and hope it works out.” The last Kentucky Derby winner to start from the No. 1 hole was Ferdinand in 1986. Since then, however, a 20-horse

Derby field is a near regular occurrence. And with 19 horses heading for the rail, or as close as they can get to it after the starting gates open, the unlucky colt on the inside often has little room to run.

Derby: Saturday From Page B1 including the favorite, were surely breaking into a cold sweat. “Oh yeah, absolutely,” said Brad Cox, trainer of Essential Quality. “I felt like I’ve handled everything to this point very well, but that was totally out of my hands. Once we got down to three spots available and Essential Quality was still on the board, I was definitely nervous.” And when the favorite drew No. 14? “Really pleased,” said Jimmy Bell, president of Godolphin USA, owner of Essential Quality. “All’s well that ends well.” There is a line of thinking, however, that the No. 1 hole may not be the death sentence it was previously. Last year, Churchill replaced its split gate – 14 horses in the main gate, six in the auxiliary gate – with a 20-horse gate “It helps the 1,” Pletcher said, “because you get to move the gate out a little bit and get a little more space. It’s less of a disadvantage now than it was prior to the new gate.” Max Player drew the No. 1 post last September for Kentucky Derby 146. He finished fifth. “The shorter starting gate, with the auxiliary gate not being in use anymore, that’s a positive,” Cox said. “But you want to be out there where you can kind of break and get a little bit cleaner run.” If Essential Quality gets a clean run Saturday? “If we get the trip, we’re going to be really tough,” Cox said. “That’s how confident I am.” Challengers exist. Louisiana Derby winner

Hot Rod Charlie is 8-1 in the No. 9 post position. Blue Grass runner-up Highly Motivated is 10-1 in No. 17. And Bob Baffert’s Medina Spirit, who drew post 8, is 15-1. Baffert has won the Kentucky Derby six times, including last year with Authentic. On the flip side, post position No. 5 has produced the highest percentage of Kentucky Derby winners at 11 percent. At 50-1 in the morning line, Sainthood drew the No. 5 position. He’s one of four Pletcher colts in the field, along with Known Agenda, Dynamic One (20-1 in the No. 11 post) and Bourbonic (30-1 in No. 20). “I think it’s an open race,” said Pletcher, who won the roses in 2010 with Super Saver and 2017 with Always Dreaming. “I think there’s a number of horses here who are training very well.” So Pletcher doesn’t fear Essential Quality? “I fear all of them,” he said.

Report: Amazon to pass Walmart in US retail sales in 2025 Tribune Content Agency

Dreamstime/TNS

A good training program can land you, long term, a 25% to 40% raise.

How to recognize a

high-quality job training program Tribune Content Agency The data revolution has brought us fabulous online guides for buying cars, household appliances and many financial products. In job training, however, says Harvard economist Lawrence Katz, who has studied employment and training for decades, we lack an authoritative ranking system or otherwise foolproof buying guide. (The Obama administration pushed for report cards; the Biden administration might too.) In the meantime, that places an enormous burden on those seeking job training to find the program that actually works vs. one that collects tuition and leaves the worker no better off. “Ideally, programs would all have evaluations, and you’d have very good evidence,” Katz says. You’d look at a program’s report card, see what sorts of jobs and salaries its trainees hold one, five and 10 years after graduating, and decide whether to enroll. Katz hasn’t created the Consumer Reports of job training. But he and a team of researchers studied programs to identify traits that align with enrollees’ success. They searched for programs that propel a trainee down a path to 25% to 40% more income for at least five to 10 years, in an expanding field (you can study the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ projections on what fields are expanding). A successful training program is all about trajectory. Yes, of course, many programs will indeed snag you a betterpaying job, but most only connect trainees with jobs that pay 5% to 10% more for one to two years. “What you want to avoid is programs that help you

get jobs that you would have gotten anyway – the program just helped you get them faster,” says Jonathan Roth, an incoming assistant professor of economics at Brown University. “If they’re not providing you with new skills that are going to make you more employable and more marketable, then the effects of the programs tend to fade out over time.” Katz’s must-have features for those signing up for training: n Certifiable skills. The first rule of thumb is to seek a sector-specific certification, degree or license. Good examples include a Microsoft or Cisco certification in technology, or a diesel repair license. Don’t get a diploma in generic computer or mechanic skills. n Wrap-around services. Programs that truly change your life are typically six to 24 months long. Trainees drop out for all sorts of reasons, like childcare and financial stresses. Aim for a program that offers a variety of resources that will allow you to complete the program when things get tough. Think on-site childcare, financial resources and available advisers. n A relationship with a caseworker or teacher. Relationships are everything. Call the program, and talk to a caseworker or teacher to see if this person is likely to remain available and engaged. “A close connection seems to be very valuable for people who have been dislocated or have had trouble in traditional education,” Katz says. n Many employers. You want a program that leads to a number of organizations seeking to hire workers with your new

skill set. “So it’s not only about one employer, who then has a lot of power over you,” Katz says. The presence of many would-be employers also indicates that your new skill set is indeed in high demand. n Soft skills training. Without communication and social skills to succeed on the job, people often fail in the workplace. Make sure your program covers this within its curriculum. n Post-employment involvement. Katz found that successful programs tend to remain involved with both employer and employee after the trainee has completed the program, helping with matters like miscommunications and discrimination, as well as partnering with employers on future job development. n Free, low-cost or income-share payment plans. Cost varies widely by field, but expect to pay in the range of $4,000 to $10,000 for a program that is at least six months long. A good option is a program funded by philanthropists, with trainees who pay back the cost as a percentage of their income. “That’s a signal that this program is likely more effective than going to some place that takes student loan money or your Pell grants. It puts the incentive on the training provider to make sure that workers get placed and have good outcomes,” Katz says. n External evaluation. Look for partnerships with universities and, if not that, any data indicating success for trainees five to 10 years down the line – programs usually happily advertise good results on their websites. “Many of these programs have now had independent evaluations done in ran-

Consumer confidence in US climbed in April to pandemic high Tribune Content Agency U.S. consumer confidence climbed sharply in April for a second month, reaching a pandemic high, as Americans grew more upbeat about the economy and job market. The Conference Board’s index increased to 121.7, the highest since February last year, from a revised 109 reading in March, according to a Tuesday report. The median estimate in a Bloomberg survey of economists called for the gauge to rise to 113.

In the past two months, the reading has increased 31.3 points, the most in records back to 1967. “Consumer confidence has rebounded sharply over the last two months,” Lynn Franco, senior director of economic indicators at the Conference Board, said in a statement. “Consumers were more upbeat about their income prospects, perhaps due to the improving job market and the recent round of stimulus checks.” Americans are increasingly optimistic that the

economy is improving as hiring accelerates and millions of people get vaccinated. As more businesses and cities reopen, consumers will have even more places to spend the savings they’ve accumulated during the pandemic. More than 43% of respondents said they plan to take a vacation in the next six months, nearly 10 percentage points more than in February. The surge in confidence was led by the group’s measure of current conditions, which rose to 139.6, the highest in more than a year.

domized trials,” Roth says. Be analytical: Are nearly all graduates landing good paying jobs, or just a few in each cohort? You probably want a trusted nonprofit, unless you find a for-profit with evidence of connecting people just like you to high-paying work. These programs do exist in some niche fields like diesel mechanics and allied health, where small companies have built successful training programs.

Amazon.com Inc. will supplant Walmart Inc. as the biggest U.S. retailer by 2025, according to a new report, suggesting the e-commerce giant has too much momentum for Walmart to stop despite big investments in its own e-commerce offerings. By 2025, U.S. shoppers will buy $632 billion worth of products at Amazon and retail afflilites including Whole Foods Market, surpassing Walmart’s $523 billion, according to the report by Edge by Ascential, which measured the value of all goods sold by each company online and in stores with the exception of gasoline. Edge by Ascential helps brands sell products online and in stores. To assess the relative size of Amazon and Walmart, Edge used gross merchandise volume, which measures how much money shoppers spend at each company. Traditionally company size is measured by comparing revenue, but doing so in this case doesn’t capture the full picture because the two companies have different models. Amazon generates most of its sales from the approximately 2 million third-party merchants on its site, charging these sellers a commission that is typically 15% of a given product’s price. What the merchants collect doesn’t

show up on Amazon’s income statement. While Walmart has a growing online operation and third-party marketplace, it remains mostly a traditional retailer, buying products from wholesalers and marking them up. Most products Walmart sells show up as revenue, so by that measure Walmart will outstrip Amazon for several years. The report doesn’t include revenue from Amazon’s cloud computing division or advertising sales. It includes sales from both retailer’s affiliates, including Whole Foods for Amazon and Sam’s Club for Walmart, but doesn’t include fees for subscriptions like Amazon Prime or Sam’s Club. “The pandemic has permanently shifted consumer habits from in-store to e-commerce,” said Deren Baker, CEO of Edge by Ascential. The main beneficiary is Amazon because Walmart is still playing catch-up even though it’s been spending to add features to its online store, including launching a Prime-style subscription service last year. Amazon, meanwhile, continues to build fulfillment centers around the country in an attempt to speed up delivery and erase the advantage Walmart enjoys with curbside pickup at its more than 5,000 locations.

Regina King speaks during the 93rd Annual Academy Awards in Los Angeles, Sunday.

Oscars 2021: What worked, what didn’t and what’s next Glenn Whipp

Los Angeles Times

The never-ending awards season ended Sunday – abruptly. It was as if Joaquin Phoenix was as exhausted as the rest of us when he shuffled off the stage at the end of the 93rd Oscars, having mumbled that Anthony Hopkins won lead actor. He didn’t explain that the 83-year-old actor wasn’t even there because he was at his father’s grave in Wales, reciting Dylan Thomas. Which . . . all things considered . . . stands as a justifiable excuse. To be honest, there were moments Sunday night when being at a cemetery would have felt preferable to watching the strange brew Steven Soderbergh and his fellow producers served up. The Oscars are the Oscars and the show will defeat even the best and the bravest. Still, as expected, Soderbergh and fellow producers Stacey Sher and Jesse Collins shook things up. Which changes should stick and which ones should be forgotten? n Changing up the show order. Chadwick Boseman was a lock to win a posthumous Oscar. Or so the, ahem, experts proclaimed. So you can understand the impulse to end the show for the first time in nearly a half-century, not with the best picture presentation but with a moving tribute to the late, great actor. But the decision to rearrange the show’s running order backfired when in a surprise, Hopkins won, and Phoenix, unprepared and uninvolved, didn’t know what to do with the moment. (It’s a year later and we’re still paying for Phoenix winning for the godawful “Joker.”) I understand Soderbergh not having a contingency plan. He’s a director and has godlike confidence to exert control over any situation. But Collins and Sher should have known better and had a contingency plan and

at least followed another general Oscar tradition, having the prior year’s actress winner present the actor honor. Renee Zellweger would have likely made us feel a little better or at least, less unsettled. n Still no host. And that’s probably fine unless next year’s producers can convince someone to take on this thankless job. For instance, Regina King would have made a terrific choice this year, judging from the way she expertly handled the choreographed opening red carpet power walk and the ceremony’s first couple of Oscar presentations. Also: Having a host helps when things go wrong. Jimmy Kimmel helped smooth over the botched best picture fiasco four years ago. Maybe he – or someone with an improv background – could have made a little music out of last night’s sad trombone of an ending. n Dispensing with the clips of nominees. This year’s Oscars needed to remind people about the magic of movies and their cultural relevance. Instead, the producers decided to ditch showing clips, save for the feature categories. It’s almost as if they decided, “Well . . . nobody watched these films this past year, so why bother?” Cheesy montages are never a good thing, but it’s strange that Soderbergh couldn’t have cut together a masterful tribute to all the great work this year, including Boseman in “Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom.” They even botched the In Memoriam segment, running it at a breakneck speed that made it all but meaningless. Give us a moment to reflect, please. n Personalizing the nominees. Basically, the order of the day was, tell, don’t show. Words instead of visuals. Again, an odd choice for a ceremony that’s supposed to celebrate a visual art form. Introducing the nominees by offering little tidbits about their love for

(Did he do a walk and talk with customers to their seats, filling them in on the ideal butter-to-salt ratio he used?) But again, this is the motion picture business. Stop with the yakking. Moving the music to the pre-show. Look, we’ve sat through performances of terrible Oscar-nominated songs through the years. And, no, “Purple Rain” was not nominated for original song, and, yes, Andra Day was correct in noting that “that’s some bull—.” But if you tuned in early Sunday evening and saw Molly Sanden singing “Husavik” with a children’s choir in the actual Husavik, Iceland, you saw .. . well, the collective power of adorable kids wearing Fair Isle sweaters, but also how wonderful a good song performance can be. As we witnessed in teaser trailers during the show, next year we’re going to have Steven Spielberg’s “West Side Story” and Lin-Manuel Miranda’s “In the Heights.” Bring back the song . . . and dance – at least for a year. Then if that lands with a thud, we’ll be here again to tell you how you got it wrong.

If you have a doubleton, lead the higher. With three to an honor, lead the lowest. However, what do you pick from three low cards? This is the best method: If you have not supported, lead your lowest. But if you have supported (so partner knows you have length), lead the highest to deny an honor in the suit. Today’s deal shows why this agreement is so important. If West leads the heart seven, East will win with the jack and cash the ace. When he sees partner drop the five, East will think that West has just completed an echo, playing high-low from a doubleton. East will try to cash the heart king, but South will ruff, draw trumps and run the clubs for an overtrick. However, if West leads the heart three, East, after taking two tricks in the suit, will know that his partner, not South, has the remaining heart. East will shift to the diamond three (low THERE ARE RULES from length guaranteeing an honor in unbid suit), and the defenders will FOR PARTNER’S SUIT an take the first four tricks.

Movie “Seven” Movie

Suzanne Cordeiro/For the Austin American-Statesman/TNS file (2018)

Elon Musk, CEO of SpaceX and Tesla, speaks during South by Southwest in Austin, Texas, in 2018.

Musk’s upcoming ‘SNL’ hosting gig angers critics Tribune Content Agency “Saturday Night Live” producers are getting slammed for their surprising decision to tap Elon Musk as an upcoming host of the sketch comedy show. Among the apparent critics of the move are two cast members. Last week it was announced that the polarizing Tesla CEO/SpaceX billionaire will host the May 8 episode alongside musical guest Miley Cyrus. The news was met with an immediate backlash on social media (one tweet called it “bafflingly terrible. Just gross.”). But Musk seemed to revel in the uproar, cryptically tweeting, “Let’s find out just how live Saturday Night Live really is” – a post that included a little devil emoji. M u s k ’s t weet prompted a rebuke from “SNL” cast member Bowen Yang, who commented via Instastory, “What the f–k does that even mean?” Yang’s “SNL” co-star Andrew Dismukes, who became a featured player this season, also dissed the move, cracking, “Only CEO I wanna do sketch with is Cher-E Oteri” – a reference to the former “SNL” standout. Musk will be the first non-actor or athlete to host “SNL” since Donald Trump in the fall of 2016. At that time, Trump was still just a candidate for president and that decision was met with a voluminous outcry. Musk has come under fire over the past year for downplaying the severity of the Covid-19 pandemic. At one point, he said “the coronavirus panic is dumb.” He also compared the deadly virus to

another form of the cold, and, in March 2020, predicted to his millions of Twitter followers that there would be “close to zero new cases” by the end of April. That was the same month he demanded an end to pandemic closures. Musk has also angered many for insensitive comments aimed at the transgender community. Thus far, among the most outspoken Musk critics is Dean Obeidallah, a SiriusXM radio host who previously worked on the “SNL” production staff. In a commentary piece for CNN.com, Obeidallah wondered: “Why would the longest-running late-night comedy show – currently in its 46th season – ask Musk to host an episode? Presumably it’s because the show wants to remain relevant. And in defense of ‘SNL,’ it must do that. But the show . . . should do better than bestowing that honor on Musk, given his irresponsible statements about Covid-19 and his insensitive comments surrounding the transgender community.” Obeidallah closed his column by writing: “To be clear, this is not about freedom of speech or silencing Musk’s views. He has a massive social media platform and can attract media coverage at will. The question is, does Musk deserve the privilege of hosting the greatest latenight comedy show of our time? The answer is absolutely not.” Of course, Musk has his supporters as well. One Twitter user even called it the “best decision (‘SNL’ boss) Lorne Michaels ever made!”

49ers: Many top prospects fizzled out From Page B1 2006 who won the Heisman Trophy while playing in a pro-style offense at USC “If you would have told me that Matt Leinart wouldn’t have had a better NFL career coming out of USC – are you crazy?” Herbstreit said. “Why do so many guys not make it when you look at them on paper and you break their film down and you think, ‘Oh man, this guy’s definitely going to make it.’ We’re only analysts – people on the outside. I mean these NFL scouts, these NFL GMs, head coaches, they lose their jobs because they miss on quarterbacks. And yet they continually miss. So I don’t know why it is.” One reason why that is: Many of the traits that determine success or failure for players who are drafted to be franchise saviors can’t be measured. When asked what he viewed as the must-have qualities in a QB, Hall of Fame head coach Tony Dungy mentioned accuracy and poise. Would a QB such as Lance, who handled big-game pressure for a small school en route to leading North Dakota State to a national title, do the same in an NFL pressure cooker? Posed that question, Hall of Fame executive Gil Brandt began by

‘It does put pressure on people.’ — Kyle Shanahan, on the expectations placed on a quarterback

saying a necessity for a QB was to possess “work habits like Peyton Manning had.” But how to tell if a grinder in college will do the same once he’s signed a contract, as this year’s No. 3 pick will, for more than $30 million guaranteed? The potential for a loss of passion is the reason former Buccaneers general manager Mark Dominik mentioned a quarterback must have “love for the game.” And that gets to the part of a QB that’s the hardest to assess. Dominik, a former Chiefs scout, invoked the wisdom of former head coach Marty Schottenheimer. He said “the toughest measurement is the six inches that’s from your breastplate to your backbone, where your heart is,” Dominik said. “If you can get that figured out you can find a special player.” The player the 49ers pick will probably have to handle more pressure than most highly drafted QBs. After trading up nine spots to No.

that. It’s just so unrealistic and not practical. It’s never going to happen. It’s not a great way to live life or play football.” General manager John Lynch noted the QB the 49ers select Thursday will likely get to play football in an environment that’s more conducive to success than those of so many other highly drafted QBs. Smith, for example, was drafted by the 49ers when they were coming off a 2-14 season and were an organizational mess. He played for seven offensive coordinators in his first seven seasons and his first two head coaches, Mike Nolan and Mike Singletary, were defensive minds who publicly questioned his toughness. A more recent example is Sam Darnold, the last QB selected with the No. 3 pick. He was just traded to the Panthers after three bumpy seasons with the dysfunctional, talent-starved Jets. In contrast, the 49ers are less than 15 months removed from playing in a Super Bowl and Lynch and Shanahan are the leaders of a stable franchise. Of course, that’s the situation before the 49ers make the No. 3 pick. Everything could soon begin to unravel if, like so many others before them, they draft a disappointment.

3 overall, the 49ers will have invested three first-rounds picks and a third-rounder in their new QB, who will have to be more than moderately successful to justify the investment. And if the 49ers select Jones, who would be an unpopular choice for a possibly large segment of the fan base, the pressure would be intensified. “It does put pressure on people,” head coach Kyle Shanahan said of the expectations on the QB. “But there’s no more pressure, to me, on any position in sports than an NFL quarterback. So whether you get it right away or you get it later, it doesn’t matter. It’s coming.” The pressure was initially too much for just-retired Alex Smith, the NFL’s Comeback Player of the Year whose return to the field last season from a horrific leg injury has made him a symbol of grit and mental toughness. Even Smith, the No. 1 pick in 2005 and the only QB the 49ers have drafted with a top-five pick since 1967, was illequipped to carry the weight of expectations and was wracked by anxiety. “I think that was certainly my biggest problem my first few years was I really wanted to have everybody like me,” Smith said in December. “I want to prove to everybody – all
