FAIRFIELD — Adaptive physical education students in the Fairfield-Suisun School District proved they “still got game” Thursday morning at Armijo High School. More than 100 athletes, representing Armijo, Fairfield and Rodriguez high schools and H. Glenn Richardson, participated in a Special Olympics basketball event. Many of the high school students started out together in elementary school then went to different high schools. The event is a reunion for many of them. The season was interrupted by Covid-19. Some had not seen their friends in person since early 2020. As the athletes stepped off the buses, a round of cheers awaited them from Armijo’s leadership class, whose members stood outside the gym in two welcome lines. Rosemary Morris was among the family and friends there to cheer on the Olympians. Her son, Andrew Morris, will graduate from Armijo High School in 2022. He was diagnosed with autism when he was 2, Rosemary Morris said. Morris said her son had been

Basketball is one of his favorites. “There was one time he shot a basket and the ball ended up in the wire above the backboard,” she said. A ladder was needed to bring the ball down. Andrew Morris kept an eagle eye on the ball Thursday as he moved around the modified court. He was
happy to pass the ball to a fellow teammate he felt had better odds of making the basket. “I think he’s a natural at shooting,” Rosemary Morris said. Andrew Morris grabbed a quick drink of water after the game before heading to the next court. See Olympics, Page A6

WASHINGTON — The omicron variant of the coronavirus will likely be less severe than the delta variant, which remains the “real problem” for Americans this winter, Dr. Anthony Fauci said Thursday. In an interview with McClatchy, Fauci said the country is “already seeing a resurgence of cases” and warned that 60 million Americans remain unvaccinated. “I think we have enough problems with delta,” said Fauci, President Joe Biden’s chief medical adviser and head of the National

FAIRFIELD — The Solano County fairgrounds redevelopment plan that goes from 50 housing units to 500 units is expected to be submitted to the Vallejo planning staff in January. Solano County officials believe the amended Solano360 Spe- Spering cific Plan will get the city go-ahead in seven months. The top Vallejo planner on Thursday said it could be 18 months. “I don’t want to give you false hopes and be caught short,” Christina Ratcliffe, the Vallejo interim Planning and Development Services director, told the Solano360 Implementation Committee. The meeting started as a review of the economic markets that are driving the project. Mike Lindenlaub, with project developer Industrial Realty Group LLC, told the committee that
the first development will likely be studio space for filmmakers and others, as will as maker space for firms that want to produce and deliver their goods from that location, but also with the option of being able to sell those products there as well. The maker space includes a water element. L indenlaub said those two components are the likely driving forces that will lead to the buildout of housing, retail, office and hospitality opportunities, which would include hotels, restaurants and entertainment venue and other amenities. Ratcliffe said the city has yet to receive a project description, environmental documents or any other information to date. She also anticipated, as with most plans, that the document will be incomplete. “The timeline we have given the county is a year, See Solano, Page A6
Bob Dole lies in state at Capitol Rotunda in DC Tribune Content Agency WASHINGTON — Just before 10 a.m. Thursday, Bob Dole came home. He was carried by a military honor guard up the Capitol’s steps as his wife, Elizabeth Dole, looked on with tears in her eyes. The man from windswept Russell, Kansas, spent 35 years in Congress, rising to the highest echelon of political power in Washington but never quite reaching the pinnacle of the presidency. It was as a senator that Dole left his indelible mark on the nation, as America’s current elected leaders noted in a ceremony Thursday before Dole spends
a final day in the Capitol, lying in state. Dole died Sunday at the age of 98. He rose through Republican ranks as a famed “hatchet man,” but his legacy is one of bipartisan achievements, from the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act to saving social security. Hardly any legislation passed through Congress during his 11 years as the GOP leader without his imprimatur. Before the pandemic, an American lying in state under the Capitol Dome might mean throngs of mourners paying their last respects. Things were different Thursday. See Dole, Page A6

Bunney Hospital becomes the Fairfield Hospital On March 3, 1949, the Fairfield City Council approved a use permit to enlarge the Bunney Hospital by 3,000 square feet at a cost between $40,000 and $60,000. The Bunney Hospital was located at 1234 Empire St. and the upgrade would add five more beds to the facility, bringing the total up to 15. There would also be new private offices for Dr. Milton Smith and his partner, Dr. Gauder, a new delivery room, the nursery was to be enlarged and the clinical laboratory, which had been housed in the Title building downtown, would be moved to the hospital. In June, a month before the new facility opened to the public, the City Council agreed to change the name from the Bunney Hospital to the Fairfield Hospital. The Bunney Hospital originally opened Aug. 18, 1940, and seven years later the namesake physician, Dr. Gordon Bunney, sold it to Dr. Milton B. Smith. During its time as the Bunney Hospital, more than 1,100 local babies were born there and more than
500 major operations were performed. After selling the hospital, Dr. Bunney sailed from New York to London, England, where he worked at St. Mark’s Hospital, specializing in proctology. When it opened July 17, 1949, the Fairfield Hospital’s new reception room had a black and white floor, red leather chairs and flowered draperies on the windows. Both the inside and the outside were painted a pale, cool green. Just an aside, I chuckled aloud when I learned a few years ago that Dr. Gordon Bunney’s wife’s first name was Esther. Yes, Esther Bunney. I found Esther Bunney’s obituary and she lived to be 104 and died Oct. 18, 2018. It said she drove until she was 99, liked to gamble and particularly delighted in being a librarian. According to the obituary, Esther was a 69-year member of the Del Paso Country Club where she often played golf with friends and cherished her favorite meal of the day: dessert. Fairfield freelance humor columnist and accidental local historian Tony Wade writes two weekly columns: “The Last Laugh” on Mondays and “Back in the Day” on Fridays. Wade is also the author of The History Press book “Growing Up In Fairfield, California.”

Solano woman earns NAACP nod for work in mental health field Amy Maginnis-Honey

FAIRFIELD — Facing brain surgery in less than a week, Cornelia Gibson counts her blessings. A mother at 18, she fled an abusive relationship and went on to write “Surviving Broken Promises,” which was released in 2002. One reviewer called it a “must-read” for any woman who has found herself trapped in a cycle of loving the wrong man. Her dissertation for her doctorate in counseling psychology was “Teen Pregnancies in African-American the Community: The Teen Mothers’ Perspective.” Gibson has been the executive director of the Agape Counseling Center and Network for the past six years. Her duties also include clinical supervision for staff and practicum students from Brandman University, the University of Phoenix, Dominican University, Antioch University and Walden University. She also maintains a small client caseload. It’s been a decade since she was diagnosed with a slow-growing brain tumor. Symptoms included headaches, a change in vision and seizures. An MRI gave her the results. The doctor gave her a choice, noting there were two types of people who get such a diagnosis: those who want to deal with it immediately and those who choose to wait, as long their condition doesn’t worsen. A recent MRI revealed it was time for surgery. “I don’t have a sense of fear,” Gibson said. “My faith is strong.” Gibson’s mother is worried and she hoped to alleviate her mother’s fears by telling her not to worry. One of Gibson’s sons reminded her when he underwent surgery that she was worried. He said she should allow her mother to worry. Gibson apologized to her mother. Gibson realized a four-year dream on her

FAIRFIELD — Grant applications for assisting in the purchase and installation of publicly available electric vehicle charging stations are available through the Bay Area Air Quality Management District’s Charge! program. There is $7 million in funding available to public agencies and public businesses. “Adoption of electric vehicles continues to expand at a robust pace,” Jack Broadbent, executive officer of the air district,
said in a statement. “More charging stations in key locations will quicken the energy transition and make buying an electric vehicle the smarter option for Bay Area residents.” The purpose of the program is “to help build a charging network able to support the Bay Area’s electric vehicle adoption goals of 90% of the overall vehicle fleet by 2050,” the statement said. Projects that install electric vehicle charging at multiple-unit dwellings, specifically affordable and below market rate housing sites, and projects located
in environmental justice communities, will get top priority. A webinar is set for 10 a.m. Tuesday. It will provide an overview of the program and answer questions from interested parties. For more information, go to www.baaqmd. gov/charge or contact Danny Fung at dfung@ baaqmd.gov. The application deadline is 5 p.m. March 1. The air district covers all or parts of the nine counties in the Bay Area, including the Fairfield and Vallejo areas of Solano County.
VACAVILLE — The Planning Commission gave its approval Tuesday to the final Downtown Specific Plan and recommended it move forward to the City Council. The official motion came in two parts: n Approve the the Downtown Specific Plan, associated addendum to the General Plan Update Environmental Impact Report, and 2021 Supplement to the General Plan Update, to the council. n Recommend the City Council adopt an ordinance to incorporate the Downtown Design Standards and Guidelines into the city’s land use and development code by reference. The commission voted 6-1 after lengthy discussion over continued concerns like parking and the impact of new housing on schools to move forward with Vice Chairman Brandon Kline voting no. The Downtown Specific Plan features the development of 237 acres with Interstate 80 to the south, West Street to the west, East Monte Vista Avenue to the north and Depot Street to the east. It’s a plan that has been in the works since first proposed in March 2019. The project includes new infrastructure with improved sidewalks, crosswalks, bicycle lanes, trees and landscaping, street signage and wayfinding, the Town expansion of Square and multipleuse housing development like multiplexes, townhouses, apartments and condominiums. “All of these plans will help drive the success of downtown and engage more people in wanting to be in downtown because it’s safe, looks good, feels good,” said Beverly Choi, the project manager. “We want folks who come and visit to always have that feelgood feeling.” The City Council is now expected to hear the final plan at its Jan. 25 meeting and possibly take final
action Feb. 8. Commissioners voiced their concern lighting, which for Don Burris, director of economic development, said is already been addressed. Kline was also concerned with what he sees as a lack of parking and safety enforcement. But commissioners have been told there are 11 lots in the downtown area and there will be signage to each one and possible smartphone apps available to find them. The Vacaville Police Department has also already said that because of staffing, extended law enforcement could not be deployed in the downtown area at this time. Commissioner Wendy Breckon voiced her concern amount making sure the housing in the area will be multipleuse and was satisfied to here the Planning Commission would remain involved in the approval process. Breckon was expressed concern with the number of youth who would be going to area schools. She said she felt a proposed bond measure for two new elementary schools already consideration under should be passed before the Downtown Specific Plan moves forward. The Planning Commission amended the second part of its recommendation to include words that the council should not move forward without the school bond financing in place. That amendment was voted down 5-2 with only Breckon and Kline approving. “I’m very much in favor of this project,” Commissioner Jan Aldrich said. “I want to thank staff who have put in all their time and energy all these years. They’ve put in their due diligence and I think things will work themselves out.” “Do we have a plan to promote additional development?” Chairman Robert Macauley said. “I think the answer is yes. I’m willing to support it as shown.”

Fairfield council discusses fledgling farmers market K aty St. Clair
katy@dailyrepublic.com
FAIRFIELD — Economic Development Division Manager Dwayne Dalman made a presentation Tuesday to the City Council to open up discussion about how to revitalize the city’s farmers market that was held Thursday evenings this year from June through September. said that Dalman turnout for both vendors and customers has been lower than they had hoped, with an estimated 30% of vender spaces remaining unfilled and no more than 450 visitors on a good evening. Dalman also noted that the bulk of visitors arrive at 3 p.m. and leave by 7 p.m., though the market officially ends at 8 p.m. Council members were asked to consider keeping or changing the day of the week on which the market is held, as well as the time frame of 4 to 8 p.m. Dalman also suggested adding more calendar events to the mix in an attempt to draw more people. The farmers market takes place on the 700 and 800 blocks of Texas Street in the city’s downtown. The city has contracted with Pacific Coast Farmers Market Association for three years, which assists with finding vendors and other logistics. Members of the council and Dalman agreed that
more research should be made into how the surrounding businesses feel about the market, what day is the best and how it compares to other cities. Councilwoman Pam Bertani pushed for a Saturday market, saying that in order to have a “robust” presence downtown, “we need to look at a Saturday.” Dalman said Pacific Coast told him there is a lot of competition for venders on Saturdays, most notably with Vallejo, which has a very active farmers market at that time. But, he said, the Vallejo market started out just as slow as Fairfield’s, so patience is important. Resident Cornelius Wood spoke during public comment and said he was unhappy the road gets blocked off during the market, suggesting instead that it be held in a nearby grassy expanse. Interim City Manager David Gassaway told the council they would meet with Pacific Coast to brainstorm, suggest research needed and go over their concerns, then report back to council, most likely in January. The farmers market prior to this season was coordinated by the Fairfield Main Street Association. The city ended its contract with the association to produce various community events, including the farmers market, and took over the planning for those events.

Now that rains are falling, again, flood control moves up county’s priority list Todd R. Hansen
thansen@dailyrepublic.net
FAIRFIELD — Solano County is no stranger to flooding. In fact, as the Board of Supervisors was informed Tuesday, about 25% of the county is in flood plains, and other areas during high water events have been prone to flooding as well. “Most of us have experienced flooding,” said Matt Tuggle, the engineering manager for the county Public Works Division. Vacaville sustained what was reported to be as much as $40 million in property damage from a 2006 flood event. The city developed a plan for several holding ponds after that event, but only one of those projects has been completed. Supervisor John Vasquez suggested that when the rain stops, the urgency to deal with flooding also dries up. Exacerbating those natural conditions, staff said, is the fact that housing and other developments have occurred in those areas over the years, and fires have contributed to debris issues. That is why Public Works crews are monitoring the LNU Lightning Complex Fire burn area for debris flows, a program that will last several years. The ongoing concern – and some have argued, ignored concern – is what to do about it. The board gave the Department of Resource Management authority to “execute proposals, applications and agreements for stormwater and flood improvement grants.” The board action was taken in anticipation of an increased flow of federal
GMKF f{ w w W {D © \w ¢{ zB YW OJKII (707) JHKCGFJG b y{ { 9\ZCGFNO
and state funding opportunities. One of the difficulties, it was argued, is that many of these grant periods are open for only 90 days, so having pre-approved authority to seek the grants was viewed as essential. Vasquez has suggested using American Rescue Plan Act funds to develop a countywide flood plan. Supervisor Mitch Mashburn noted the need to strengthen enforcement powers to get private landowners to keep clean of debris streams and water drains that are on their property, but affect their neighbors. He said that also applies to agencies such as PG&E, which he said right now has no incentive to clear away trees and other debris created during fire response that is now blocking waterways. Supervisor Erin Hannigan said all applicants for the grants face the same tight deadlines, so the real issue is to have shovel-ready projects in the pipeline to improve
chances of getting those funds. That will require the county to be more active in working with other jurisdictions to develop those projects. It was agreed that the Solano County Water Agency will have to play a role in making that happen. Supervisor Jim Spering, who expects to be the president of the Solano County Water Agency board next year, promised to be more aggressive on that front, a promise Vasquez said actually means more forceful. Call it whatever works best, Supervisor Monica Brown, whose district has been particularly affected by high waters due to creek overflows – often the result of debris that has not been cleared away – is excited the county is moving forward. “I’m finally glad we are doing this because it is driving me crazy that we haven’t done anything in the 40 years I’ve lived and taught (in the county),” Brown said.
Solano County plans for $105M in public works projects over next 5 years Todd R. Hansen
thansen@dailyrepublic.net
FAIRFIELD — Solano County has $7.84 million in public works projects outlined for the first year of its Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan, and $105.91 million through fiscal year 2026-27. “The plan that is presented to you is not fully funded. It will require grants of other agreements to do all the projects, but it does make a dent in some of the road (projects) and equipment purchases that we need,” said Terry Schmidtbauer, the director of the Department of Resource Management, which includes the Public Works Division. The plan was approved Tuesday by the Board of Supervisors. About $868,000 of the first-year projects are not yet funded, and $44.63 million of the projects are unfunded for the whole plan, the county reported. The board discussion also included the need to deal with the increased truck traffic in the area, noting specifically the new Amazon facility along Interstate 505 in Vacaville. Supervisor Erin Hannigan suggested developing truck routes to take the pressure off roads really not built for the heavier loads. The board was told the use of stop signs and speed limits also are being considered to help control the flow of truck traffic. “Please don’t forget Rio Vista and looking for way to help there,” Supervisor Mitch Mashburn said, noting the truck traffic that rolls through the middle of town. Matt Tuggle, the engineering manager for Public Works, said the department rotates projects through the improvement plan each year, and uses the document as a planning tool for the years to come.
“We look at it as what are we delivering this year; what are we definitely delivering next year; what are we working on trying to deliver two years from now; what do we want to deliver three, four years from now; and what do we hope to do in five to six years,” Tuggle said. He said Senate Bill 1 funds, while having state reporting requirements, have allowed the county to get past just trying to keep pace with general road maintenance, and looking toward larger projects. The unincorporated roads in the county are rated among the best in the Bay Area. Senate Bill 1 funding also has allowed the county to work with cities on mutually beneficial projects, Tuggle said. The county has even done some work in Yolo County, projects that got Solano County recognized at last week’s California State Association of Counties meetings in Monterey. The project list for fiscal year 2021-22, which started July 1 and runs through June 30, includes $7.79 million in road construction projects, $868,000 of which is unfunded. The funded list includes The Farm-to-Market/Midway Road Overlay project for 8.27 miles of pedestrian and cycling improvements on Abernathy, Mankas Corner, Rockville and Suisun Valley roads in Suisun Valley. The cost is estimated at $4.1 million. Other funded projects include realigning curves on Foothill Drive from the Vacaville city limits to Pleasants Valley Road ($600,000); various guardrail projects ($250,000) and the Lighting and LED Conversion Project ($220,000); Safety Improvement Project 2021 at various intersections including at Rockville Hills Regional Park and
Bridgeport Avenue in Fairfield ($600,000) and signing and striping upgrades ($25,000). Benicia Road in Vallejo, from Beach Street to the Interstate 80 overpass, has $2 million in funding identified, but $868,000 unfunded. The 2020-21 plan also includes $50,000 in right-of-way purchases, some temporary, for work scheduled for the Cantelow Road culvert replacement project, the Foothill Drive project and improvements for the intersection of Midway and Porter roads near Dixon. One project being eyed by Public Works is an overcrossing from Fairfield’s Rockville Hills Regional Park to the Patwino Worrtla Kodoi Dihi Open Space Park owned by the Solano Land Trust. It would help connect trails for pedestrians, cyclists and possibly horse use, and would help connect sections of the San Francisco Bay Trail. Tuggle noted that completing work on Vanden Road is a priority, but because development has slowed in the area, the funds are not coming in as fast as anticipated, so it could be another 10 years before the Peabody-Vanden connector project is completed. Tuggle also noted the state Department of Transportation’s plans for a major Highway 113 project in 2026. The 2022-23 plan outlines $11.976 million in projects, with $1.8 million unfunded. The 2023-24 plan outlines $25.54 million in projects, with $9.47 million unfunded. The 2024-25 plan outlines $27.75 million in projects, with $11.14 million unfunded. The 2025-26 plan outlines $25.04 million in projects, with $20.17 million unfunded. The 2026-27 plan outlines $7.98 million in projects, with $1.18 million unfunded.

Representatives pass ‘National Defense Suisun council Authorization Act’ that supports Travis AFB backs pair of public safety requests
Daily Republic Staff drnews@dailyrepublic.net
FAIRFIELD — The House of Representatives voted Wednesday to pass the “National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2022” by a bipartisan vote of 363-70 with local Rep. John Garamendi playing a role in its passage. Garamendi, D-Walnut Grove, as chairman of the House Armed Services Subcommittee on Readiness, authored the Readiness Subcommittee’s provisions in the final bill. The annual legislation supports all aspects of the U.S. military, according to a press release from Garamendi’s office, including all personnel, installations and equipment for national defense. The legislation now heads to the U.S. Senate, which is expected to also pass the bill and send it to President Joe Biden’s desk to be signed into law. Garamendi secured funding for several projects at Travis and Beale Air Force bases. Specifically, the final legislation includes $33 million for Beale’s 940th Air Refueling Wing Squad Operations and Maintenance Complex and provides $13 billion for military construction projects nationwide, building upon the $295.7 million in ongoing military construction projects Garamendi secured for Travis Air Force Base. Additionally, Garamendi helped secure $20 million in intelli-

Garamendi said in a press release that the legislation “aggressively identifies” and cleans up Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances contamination at military installations “to protect our service members and neighboring communities.” “This issue is close to home for me, as high levels of PFAS contaminants were found at Travis Air Force Base in my district,” Garamendi said in the press release. Garamendi said this
year’s legislation includes provisions to reverse what he called the “precipitous rise in military training deaths throughout the service branches in recent years, which are avoidable and completely unacceptable.” Garamendi said he was pleased that several of his amendments to the legislation to unlock new military resources to help fight wildfires were adopted in the bill. The legislation also improves child care facilities on bases to ensure military families have child care and day care support, according to the press release. The bill also updates the Tenant’s Bill of Rights
that Garamendi said he established last year to provide on-base housing for service members and their families. Garamendi also praised inclusion of provisions to support U.S. manufacturing. “Throughout the NDAA markup process, I fought to support several ‘Buy American’ amendments that were introduced at the hearing to ensure the military uses American materials and workers to the extent possible,” Garamendi said in the press release. “I’m pleased that several of those provisions were included in this legislation.”

House passes ‘Ocean Shipping Reform Act’ Daily Republic Staff
drnews@dailyrepublic.net
FAIRFIELD — The U.S. House of Representatives passed Rep. John Garamendi’s “Ocean Shipping Reform Act” on Wednesday by a bipartisan vote of 364-60. Garamendi, D-Walnut Grove, introduced the legislation with Rep. Dusty Johnson, R-South Dakota, to make the Federal Maritime Commission what they state will be a more effective federal regulator. The “Ocean Shipping Reform Act” is expected to ensure a more competitive global ocean shipping industry, according to a press release from Garamendi’s office, protect American businesses and consumers from price gouging, and establish reciprocal trade opportunities to reduce the United States’ longstanding trade imbalance with export-driven countries like mainland China.

SUISUN CITY — The City Council authorized the chief of police in separate unanimous votes Tuesday to apply for and receive funding through the Boating Safety and Enforcement Financial Aid Program from the California Department of Boating and Waterways. The council also authorized the city manager to execute a lease agreement with Flock Group Inc. for Automated License Plate Readers. Three police sergeants and up to six police officers are assigned to the patrol boat operation on an ancillary duty basis. The boat patrol is utilized in several events throughout the year, such as boat/jet ski races, the Fourth of July, Christmas at the Waterfront, launch ramp inspections, harbor patrol, sinking vessels, vessel accidents, search and rescues, stranded boaters and special assistance callouts by the U.S. Coast Guard and the Solano County Sheriff’s Office. The team worked approximately 583 hours during the prior completed federal fiscal year toward boating safety education and enforcement, the city reports. There were 216 warnings issued and one citation issued. There were285complianceinspection/checks completed. were two There search-and-rescue responses, 50 people assisted and 13 vessels assisted, the city reports. After a few questions from Councilman Mike Hudson, the council approved executing a lease agreement.
The Police Department has previously identified a need to replace and expand the city’s Automated License Plate Readers infrastructure. The total cost has been forecast for funding through the city’s share of American Rescue Plan Act money approved Nov. 8 by council. The program has been budgeted for $38,500 for the fiscal year 2021-2022, and $35,000 each for fiscal years 2022-2023 and 2023-2024. The Police Department was authorized by the council in 2018 to begin the Automated License Plate Readers program with open-source software. The software captured license plates but did not query the data against any databases, the city reports. The city does not have staffing available in any department to install, maintain and calibrate cameras for the Automated License Plate Readers. Flock Group Inc. offers a lease-based program, including installation, repair, maintenance and software to run the system. Flock Group Inc. cameras have the potential to reduce gun violence in Suisun City, the city reports. Approximately 70% of crimes involve a vehicle, according to a staff report. Vallejo, Benicia, Vacaville and Fairfield all use Flock Group Inc. Automated License Plate Readers, according to the staff report. This enables Suisun City to search surrounding agencies’ cameras to determine if vehicles have traveled to other cities, according to the report.
Solano rep sponsors amendment to prevent overturning of lawful election results Daily Republic Staff
drnews@dailyrepublic.net
FAIRFIELD — Rep. John Garamendi sponsored an amendment Wednesday to the “Protecting Our Democracy Act” to prevent the partisan subversion of free and fair elections. Garamendi, D-Walnut Grove, said in a statement he believes his amendment strikes an outdated provision in the Electoral Act of 1887 that would allow secretaries of state and state legislatures to decertify “legitimate election results and install their preferred electors against the will of the voters.” Garamendi said in a press release that former President Donald Trump attempted to employ this very method after his defeat to President Joe Biden when Trump asked his supporters in Congress to decertify the lawful results of the 2020 presidential election. This led the actions of Jan. 6, 2021, Garamendi said, when more than 60% of the Republican caucus in the U.S. House of Representatives voted to decertify the 2020 election, subvert the will of the voters and incite a riot at the U.S. Capitol. Garamendi said there
is also an indication that Trump intends to employ these same tactics in the 2024 election. Trump’s effort to exploit loopholes in the Electoral County Act of 1887 did not end Jan. 6, Garamendi said in a press release. Republican state officials over the past year have worked to build on what Garamendi describes in the press release as the “big lie” by allowing partisan lawmakers to reject the will of the voters and undermine American democracy. “These dangerous actions undercut public trust and threaten the integrity of the world’s greatest democracy,” Garamendi said in the press release. “Simply put, this poorly written 19th-century law is failing us and needs to be modernized.” Garamendi’s amendment was not adopted as part of the legislation Wednesday. However, he said he secured assurances that the provision would be included in subsequent legislation. Garamendi represents the 3rd Congressional District, which includes all of Solano County east of Benicia and Vallejo and extends east into Winters in neighboring Yolo County.

Trump: Court loss From Page One select committee. Trump is vowing to take the case to the Supreme Court. “Regardless of today’s decision by the appeals court, this case was always destined for the Supreme Court,” Trump’s spokeswoman Liz Harrington said. “President Trump’s duty to defend the Constitution and the Office of the Presidency continues, and he will keep fighting for every American and every future Administration.” Trump along with some of his allies have been fighting demands for documents and testimony from the committee. Political strategist Steve Bannon faces contempt of Congress charges for defying a subpoena from the com-
mittee and on Wednesday former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows sued to block two subpoenas he has received. Biden and the House reasonably concluded that access to a subset of presidential communications “is necessary to address a matter of great constitutional moment for the Republic,” the unanimous three-judge panel said in Thursday’s ruling. “The events of January 6th exposed the fragility of those democratic institutions and traditions that we had perhaps come to take for granted,” the panel said. Trump “has given this court no legal reason to cast aside President Biden’s assessment of the Executive Branch interests at stake.”

Solano, SMUD try to hammer out legal remedy over wind turbines Todd R. Hansen
thansen@dailyrepublic.net
FAIRFIELD — Members of the Solano County Airport Land Use commissioners were told Thursday night that the county is negotiating with SMUD away from the court in an effort to settle the lawsuit it brought against the utility firm over plans to install larger wind turbines in the Montezuma Hills area. The county has a moratorium on new turbines, and the airport commission determined the project by the Sacramento Municipal Utility District will interfere with Travis Air Force Base operations.
Despite those positions, the SMUD board on Aug. 19 voted to move forward on taking out some existing turbines and replacing them with 19 new turbines between 492 and 591 feet tall, with rotor diameters ranging from 446 to 492 feet. Catherine Cook, as part of the commissioner comments period, asked that the board be updated on the matter at its next meeting, and despite the issue not being on the agenda for discussion, Deputy County Counsel Lori Mazzella informed the commission that the judge had moved the matter to a settlement conference. “So the sides are negotiating right now,”
Mazzella said. In other action, the commissioners: n Determined proposed changes to the county zoning ordinance will not adversely affect any airport operations in the county. Most of the changes, the commission members were told, were defining uses in the agriculture zones and the h ighway- c om mercia l zone. Jim Leland, a principal planner for the county, noted such things as commercial greenhouses and ag-related robotics as examples of changes. Restaurants, cafes, bakeries and retail stores are proposed uses for the agritourism areas of the county as well. n Determined the
Vacaville School District’s elementary school site within the 800-acre North Village development plan, which is bounded by Midway Road to the north, Leisure Town Road to the east, Vaca Valley Parkway to the south and Interstate 505 to the west, is not inconsistent with airport land-use compatibility plans. n Determined the Benicia Eastern Gateway Project also is consistent with airport operations. n Presented Leland with a card and gift, and noted their gratitude for his service to the commission for the past 13 years. He is retiring from the county Dec. 29.

He won first place in a running competition. The teen, who loves basketball, reminded his mom many times, including Thursday morning, to be at the game. Her son would also get to connect with his friend, Christopher Nelson, a junior at Fairfield High School. Soccer competition was planned for earlier in the fall, but was canceled because of transportation issues, said Shirley Cavasos-Miller, an adapted physical education specialist in the Fairfield-Suisun School District. “I’m happy we get to have it back in person,” she said.

As a goal-oriented person, Oladele, serving as emcee, thanked the coaches, students, parents and volunteers for their countless hours of work on the games. “Let the games begin,” Armijo Principal Charleston Brown proclaimed. The main basketball court was modified into smaller courts, each with a backboard. Fans were able to walk down a middle
aisle to easily access the different games in play. Special Olympics events at the local schools help foster relationships between general and special education students, said Casey Towner, an Armijo math teacher who oversees the leaderships students. “Inclusion is the big word.

Solano: Plan could be ready in 2022 From Page One year-and-a-half for a specific plan amendment,” Ratcliffe said. She said her department is understaffed, and in addition to Solano360, have Mare Island and downtown redevelopment plans being reviewed as well. Mayor Robert McConnell, a member of the committee, said he hopes to muscle up the planning division budget at midyear, saying the division has suffered because of the need to fund police and fire. Ratcliffe’s comments triggered an instant reaction from Supervisor Jim Spering, who called her timeline comments “disappointing,” and said Vallejo has a reputation of being “slow” and “difficult.” “At some point, someone in Vallejo is going to have to say this project is important, and I’m not hearing anybody say that,” Spering said. He said if it is going to take 18 months to review and approve the new specific plan, then he does not think the county should be paying for a planner, hired by the city, to specifically work on Solano360. He later said his comments were out of frustration, adding that the county and city have spent a great
deal of time and money on getting the project to this point. Spering represents the county on the committee along with Supervisor Erin Hannigan, who chairs the panel. Nancy Huston, an assistant county administrator, said the city is going to have to trust the county to submit a plan that is ready for full review. “When we submit something to Vallejo, it will not be incomplete,” Huston said. “There will be questions, because there are always questions.” Allan Calder, the county planning manager, said except for the beefed up housing element – both single-family and multifamily options – there are not a lot of zoning or other changes to the specific plan. He said the amended version follows the vision of the original plan. “There is a reality for a projection of seven months,” Calder said. Vallejo Councilwoman Pippin Dew, the final member of the committee, turned down the temperature a bit by saying she believed the county and city staffs are fully committed to the project and are working hard to move it forward. She added, however, that “accusations” are unnecessary or distrust will develop between the
city and the county. McConnell said the timeline might go faster if the city Planning Commission is briefed on the project progress ahead of having the project submitted for their recommendation to the City Council. He suggested rotating committee meetings between Fairfield and Vallejo, and Dew added she hopes to be the council liaison to the Planning Commission next year and will keep them informed as well. A workshop also was suggested. McConnell also warned not to try to slide the project past the city residents. “If you just spring this onto the people of Vallejo, you are going to get a pushback you will not appreciate,” the mayor said. Fidel Chavez, who said he represents a carpenters union, but was not specific, said the project is not just a commitment to the developer, or to the city or to the county. He said a commitment to the residents of the city and county must be made from beginning to end. He said local contractors and labor must be part of Solano360. “We want to be involved.

that are inexplicable – but may be explainable by political ideology – that we have people who are refusing to get vaccinated,” he said. “We have 60 million people in this country who refuse to get vaccinated. I mean, that is really very disturbing.” Omicron was first identified in South Africa last month, alarming public health experts and governments that the highly mutated variant could prove more transmissible, cause more severe disease and more
readily evade immunity provided either by previous infection or vaccines. Fauci said that data “suggests very strongly that omicron has a transmission advantage.” While omicron does appear more capable of evading existing immunity than delta, which dominates cases worldwide, Fauci said that released from data Pfizer and BioNTech this week on the effectiveness of three doses of their Covid-19 vaccine against omicron was
“good news.” Hospitalization rates in South Africa indicate omicron is less severe. “Indications from South Africa suggest that it is at least not more severe, and likely is going to be less severe – and I say likely with a big caveat that we still have a lot more to learn,” he said. “When you look at the ratio between cases and hospitalizations, the ratio of hospitalizations to cases is much smaller than what it was previously.”

‘Mr. Big’ breaks silence on Kim Cattrall’s absence Tribune Content Agency “Mr. Big” has spoken. “Sex and the City” actor Chris Noth has broken his silence regarding the longrumored feud between fellow co-stars Sarah Jessica Parker and Kim Cattrall. Adding to the fervor, the beloved actress who portrayed liberated sexpot Samantha Jones on the popular HBO series publicly swore off appearing in the new spinoff “And Just Like That…” Noth described the fallout as “sad and uncomfortable.” In a new interview the “Law & Order” alum admitted he had “absolutely no idea” why Cattrall chose not to
reprise her role as the scene-stealing character. “I have to tell you, I have absolutely no idea what her thinking is, or her emotions. I do know that I’m very close with SJ and [Cattrall’s] descriptions of her don’t even come close,” he told The Guardian, before adding, “I liked her, I thought she was marvelous in the show.” “Some people move on for their own reasons,” Noth continued. “I don’t know what hers were. I just wish that whole thing had never happened because it was sad and uncomfortable.” The 67-year-old Madison, Wisconsin, native did have his own reservations about returning as Carrie Bradshaw’s love interest.

They don’t seem to understand that their thigh, knee and foot are in what I would consider my personal space. Could you suggest a manner in which I could get them to move without sounding like a cranky old woman?

Your lucky numbers are: 8, 10, 4, 44 and 19.
everything they give in the same spirit. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). In today’s case, impulsivity will be a minus. Before you make the move you are contemplating, talk it out with someone knowledgeable and reasonable. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Old pictures, past social media posts and historic texts will be part of the texture of this day. Some artifacts make you smile. As for the cringeworthy ones, let them represent how far you’ve come. Celebrate growth. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21). You’ll be asked to handle other people’s problems. You’d like to. It would be easier. But then you’ll have to do it every time, and when you’re not around they’ll suffer. The kind way is to help others be
self-sufficient. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19). You’ll win. Stay humble and quiet about the victory for now, if not out of modesty, then for strategy. Competition is everywhere. And even when people don’t want to compete with you, success changes the social dynamic. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18). The muses will be tardy. Don’t wait on them.

Adaptability is one of your many gifts. You come across the odd and unexpected, beyond your expertise and outside of your preference. And yet still . . . you get used to it, make the most of it, turn it all to your advantage. COUPLE OF THE WEEKEND: If you try to conceal a flaw, people will only imagine the worst. You can distract from it by building and shining up your strengths. But usually, the thing to do with a flaw is to highlight it and leverage its benefits. This weekend Sagittarius and Pisces will bond over beautiful flaws and laugh about their favorite mistakes. There’s great comfort in their gloriously honest bond.

Yes, East could have made a natural two-heart overcall, but after North’s response and with the unfavorable vulnerability, he was understandably reticent. If South had won the first trick and immediately played a spade, working for a ruff on the board, West would have taken that trick and led her second club. When East got in with the spade ace, he would have given his partner a club ruff. Then, two rounds of trumps would have been lethal. Instead, declarer led his diamond king at trick two. First, West dropped her nine as a suit-preference signal for spades; and second, East ducked the trick. (If he had won, South would have either drawn trumps and run the clubs or gotten a spade ruff.)

Solano Covid numbers dip 2 days after week of ‘significant increases’ Todd R. Hansen
thansen@dailyrepublic.net
FAIRFIELD — Just like that, Solano County’s coronavirus case rates dipped. After five days that showed an increase of 271 cases – a 54.2 daily average – the county Public Health Division reported Wednesday the case rate dropped below the point it was prior to the bump. The county reported 57 new cases since Monday’s report, a two-day daily average of 28.5. From Nov. 29 to Dec. 1, the increase was 72 cases and a 36 daily average. That is when the numbers began to ascend, with 117 cases reported Dec. 3 and 154 cases Dec. 6. The 10-day daily average Dec. 1 was 31.5 cases. That 10-day average was 37.3 cases Wednesday, the county reported. Dr. Bela Matyas, the county public health officer, said the drop is so significant that he expects to see a reporting correction come from the state. He notes, as an example, that of the 57 new cases, only 26 are from the actual reporting period, a two-day average of 13. “I expect to see a correction because that number is so much lower than what we’ve been experiencing that it makes no sense,” Matyas said. The case total for the pandemic is 47,279, the county reported. The county did report one more Covid-related death, taking the pandemic total to 339. The woman, who was over 65, was unvaccinated. She also was in better health than many of the past victims of the disease, Matyas said. were There 21 residents hospitalized Wednesday, the same as Monday, but the number of patients in the intensive care units rose from four to seven, the county reported. The seven-day positivity testing rate was at 4.9%, down from 5%, the county reported.

Denise Yeung mixes a Covid-19 vaccination shot at the Sullivan Interagency Youth Services Center, Tuesday. Vaccination rates held firm, with 66% of residents 5 or older being fully vaccinated and 76% having received at least one shot. There have been 69,393 booster shots administered, up from 66,751. The number of children 5 to 11 who have received a vaccine shot rose from 5,112 Monday to 5,370 Wednesday, representing 14.5% of that population, the county reported. “So we are starting to see some improvement as we’re going into the schools,” Matyas said. Fairfield had the most new cases with 17, taking its total to 12,648. Vallejo added 13 cases for 13,790. Vacaville is at
12,493 after 12 new cases, the county reported. Suisun City (3,345) and Dixon (2,605) each added two cases. Benicia (1,617) was up 11 cases. There were no new cases reported for Rio Vista (635) or in the unincorporated area of the county, which has 146 cases, the county reported. There are still no flu cases reported in hospitals or long-term care facilities, Matyas said. However, a number of respiratory illness cases – not Covid and not the flu – have been reported in nursing facilities. Matyas said that is not uncommon for the winter months. Solano County does not post case updates
on Thursdays. The next update is scheduled late Friday afternoon. n n n Most people who have Covid-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus, experience only mild or moderate symptoms, such as fever and cough. Some people, especially older adults and those with underlying health problems, experience more severe illness such as pneumonia.

Is state going to break ‘education contract’? Todd R. Hansen
thansen@dailyrepublic.net
FAIRFIELD — There may still be debates about Covid-19 and the medical response to the pandemic. But the nearly three dozen people who attended the second “Above the Noise” forum in Vacaville on Wednesday seemed more concerned far about what decision they may have to make about their children’s education choices if California follows through with the mandates to vaccine all students 5 or older. The mandate would not likely be implemented until July at the earliest, and even later for the lower grades. That whole issue was sharpened by Tracee Stacy, one of the forum organizers and emcees of the event, when she pointed out that families without resources may have no real choice at all. Stacy noted that while families who have money or other resources can choose to take their children out of public schools and put them in situations for which the mandate does not apply, those families who do not have those
resources face vaccinating their children just so they have access to an education. “And this is outside the whole vaccine thing,” Stacy said, meaning the debate about Covid-19 and the medical response to the pandemic. Muddying the waters is the fact the state has not made clear what its full intentions are. What is known is Gov. Gavin Newsom has announced the vaccine mandate for students, a declaration that still allows for personal exemptions if it gets to that point. If the Legislature codifies the vaccine mandate, most of those exemptions may disappear. The issue also raises questions about what happens to public school districts if there is a mass exodus of students. Jane Shamieh, the superintendent of Vacaville School District, said she is concerned. “I would have to say it is discouraging and it hurts,” Shamieh said of what could be parental decisions to pull their children from the district for reasons that have nothing to do with the quality of
the education. A survey of families, with about 4,000 responses representing about half the district’s student population, indicated nearly 20% would leave. That would have a drastic impact on district funding, staffing and programs. The same survey given to families at the public charter, Kairos Schools, had similar results, said Jared Austin, co-founder and executive director of the school. He is also one of the event organizers. Austin noted that Kairos has been open for more than a year, and in that time, has had 26 positive cases of the coronavirus, but no oncampus transmissions. There are currently more students missing class because of the more usual childhood virus maladies than Covid-19. The two medical doctors on the panel – Dr. Jeff Gaborko, a Vacaville pediatrician, and Dr. Bela Matyas, the county public health officer – said school-age children have proven to be resilient to the virus, and are even unlikely to spread it.
Both, medically speaking, said they believe adults should be vaccinated and should have their children vaccinated because it is the best medical response to the virus. Matyas made it clear the vaccines are not experimental, and Gaborko said they are not even seeing much in the way of side effects in children who are vaccinated – including teens and those 5 to 11. Neither necessarily supports the state mandate, and Matyas specifically said he thinks it is important for children to be in schools. The final panelist, Jennifer Leonard, the assistant superintendent at the Solano County Office of Education, said the state needs to slow down. “Please hold off on this mandate. Let’s give parents some time,” she said, adding there is a lot of information to digest. “We are not seeing school spread.” The first of the forums drew about 120 people to Journey Downtown. An unknown number of people watched the first and second forums online.
Prevention has reported that unvaccinated people who contract the delta variant of the virus are much more likely to require hospitalization and to die from the disease as those who are vaccinated. Now health officials worldwide are tracking the new omicron variant. Health officials confirmed Dec. 1 the first U.S. case of a person infected with the omicron variant was discovered in San Francisco in an airline passenger returning to the U.S. from South Africa. The variant as of Wednesday had been detected in 20 states. The vast majority of people who contract Covid-19 recover from their illness.
Solano court offers unlawful detainer services help Daily Republic Staff
drnews@dailyrepublic.net
FAIRFIELD — Solano Superior Court has partnered with the county to provide landlords and tenants with assistance in completing applications for rental relief and in navigating the unlawful detainer eviction process. The Solano County Board of Supervisors approved up to $250,000 in funding from the American Rescue Plan Act on Oct. 5 to provide two paralegal positions that will be housed in the Solano Court’s Legal Access Center. The paralegals will help landlords and tenants with their applications for rental assistance, provide information on the unlawful detainer process and assist the court and the Solano County Bar Association with an already unlawful established detainer settlement conference program. The state has allocated funding for income-eligible renters and their landlords who have been affected by Covid-19 to cover unpaid rent and/or utilities. These rental assistance payments will help to reimburse landlords and keep tenants housed. Residential landlords and tenants filing to receive Covid-19 rental relief funds for evictions related to nonpayment of Covid-19 protected rent between March 1, 2020, and Sept. 30, 2021, must provide verification of effort to secure funds made available through the state. Anyone who seeks information about their legal rights and responsibilities as a landlord or tenant, including unlawful detainers, can get assistance navigating the legal paperwork from the Solano Court’s Legal Access Center by calling 707-207-7355 between 8:30 a.m and 12:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and at erap@solano. courts.ca.gov. Landlords and tenants can apply for the state’s Covid-19 Rent Relief program by visiting https://HousingIsKey.com and by calling 833-4302122. Unlawful detainer judicial council forms are available on the Superior Court’s website at https:// www.Courts.Ca.Gov.

Planning Commission OK’s project; union members rejoice K aty St. Clair
katy@dailyrepublic.com
FAIRFIELD — Planning commissioners approved unanimously the construction of a nearly 60-acre development near the intersection of Cordelia Road and Beck Avenue on Tuesday night, to the delight of union representatives and workers present. The Dermody Properties development will be built in the area south-southeast of the intersection near a part of Fairfield that is home to other limited industrial outfits, such as Jelly Belly and Guittard Chocolate. The site will feature five buildings adding up to 717,504 square feet of total space, all no higher than 45 feet and featuring a pearl white, gray and blue palette. The proposed development has passed all the necessary environmental and other requirements. It will also involve improvements such as adding trees, landscaping, lighting and even widening parts of Cordelia Road. Traffic was a concern of some of the commissioners, and both the city and the developer said studies have shown there will be no negative impact on the area, despite the addition of 809 parking spots (plus 130 for trucks). Though the developer was mum on who is considering setting up shop in the buildings once built, partner George Condon told the commission that, so far, they are businesses involved with manufacturing and distribution. He said he predicted 800 jobs coming to Fairfield. No one opposed the development during public comment and several local union reps and workers expressed their support. Members of Locals 104 and 378 took to the microphone and urged the commission to give the project a thumbs up. To a person, they all spoke about how nice it would be to have a local project that they could work on and not have to commute very far. “To have a project in Solano County is a dream come true,” said Desiree Crawford, an iron worker apprentice in Vallejo and single mom. “I can come home and have some oneon-one time with my kids.” Ken Miller from Ironworkers Local 378 said he and his colleagues are “all for” this project and that Dermody will use prevailing wage jobs through the union. Condon estimated that construction would begin on the site in May.
In brief Fair Board schedules planning session
The Solano County Fair Association board has scheduled a meeting Saturday “to formulate strategies and actionable goals to ensure the continued success of the fair association for another 70-plus years.” The facilitated meeting starts at 9 a.m. in the County Building on the fairgrounds in Vallejo.

Vanden set to battle Aquinas for state football championship Paul Farmer
PFARMER@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET
FAIRFIELD — The last time the Vanden and Aquinas of San Bernardino high school football teams won a state championship – in 1995 for the former, 2005 for the latter – it was CalHigh Sports bestowing the honor, not the California Interscholastic Federation. That changes for either the Vikings or the Falcons on Saturday when Vanden hosts Aquinas in the CIF Division 3-AA State Championship Game. Kickoff at George A. Gammon Field is scheduled for 6 p.m. The CIF didn’t restore state championship bowl games until 2006, starting with just two and expanding to a total of 15 in 2021. Cal-Hi Sports made Vanden the 1995 Division IV state champ in 1995, Aguinas the Division V winner a decade later. Vanden coach Sean Murphy was a lineman on the Vikings’ storied 1995 squad, which capped a dominant 13-0 season with a 26-10 victory over brief rival Bear River of Lake of the Pines in the Sac-Joaquin Section Division III title game. That contest was played on Dec. 2 with
ORINDA — Vido Caragan poured in 18 points as the Fairfield High boys basketball team raced to a 21-7 lead after the first quarter and never looked back in soaring to a 66-27 win over Ygnacio Valley of Concord in the Miramonte Tournament, Thursday. Jeremiah Cardwell added 14 points and Jamaal Williams 11 for the Falcons (3-2), who outscored the Warriors 30-9 in the second half. The Falcons take on Casa Grande of Petaluma on Friday at 7 p.m.
Wood 41, Napa 37: At Napa on Wednesday, the sluggish Wildcats (4-0) held the Grizzlies to a combined seven points in the first and the third quarters and came away with the victory. Isaac Sanchez led the Wildcats with 12 points and Devan Minouei added 10. The Wildcats JV’s won 62-49 as Isaiah Dixon led them with 28 points and Jayden Hamilton added nine. The Wood frosh prevailed
55-15 with Gavin Gonzalez scoring 14, Dante Whitley adding nine and Jeremiah Carter eight. Buckingham Charter 55, Esparto 23: At Vacaville, the Knights (4-0) jumped to a 16-3 lead after the first quarter and pulled away from there. Noah Mitchell led BC with 12 points and added four rebounds, while Dhruv Thakur had a double-double with 11 points and 11 rebounds, and Ernest Turner came close with 10 points and eight rebounds. Buckingham Charter JVs 39, Woodland Christian JVs 22: At Vacaville, the Knights led 8-7 after the first quarter but outscored the visitors 31-15 the rest of the way. Dallas Pabon led with 12 points and five rebounds, followed by Devon Hiroaka-Lee with 11 points and seven assists, and Jake Moffat with eight points and 12 rebounds.

J Windsor quarterback Chase Vehmeyer is stopped by Vanden’s Kyren Jackson-Davis at Windsor High School, Dec. 3. Saturday’s battle taking place nine days later in the month. “It does feel a little surreal,” Murphy said of having his team compete for a state championship. “It’s been a long time since we’ve been out of the second round of the playoffs. Our goal was to win a section champion-
ship. All that’s happened since has been icing on the cake. It’s strange to still be playing football this late in the year.” The Vikings have gone 12-2 with their two setbacks – a 38-31 overtime loss to eventual North Bay-Oak League champion Rancho Cotate of Rohnert Park and a
35-17 setback in the battle for the Monticello Empire League title with Vacaville – were both eyeopening experiences. Against Rancho Cotate, the Vikings sailed to an early 21-7 lead but managed just three points after halftime. See Vanden, Page B2
CIF State championship capsule Vanden (12-2) vs. Aquinas (10-5)
What: CIF Division 3-AA State Championship When: Saturday, 6 p.m. Where: George A. Gammon Field, Vanden High Series: First meeting Tickets: Are available only through CIF’s online ticketing partner, gofan.co. Tickets are $12 for adults and $8 for high school students, seniors (65+) and children (those under age 5 are free). Last week: Vanden defeated Windsor, 56-28, in the Division 3-AA NorCal final; Aquinas defeated Newport Harbor of Newport Beach, 42-28, in the SoCal final Of note: Win or lose, the longest season in Vanden history ends Saturday night. The Vikings take the field for the 15th time, two more than they did in 1995, when they were crowned the Division IV state champions by Cal-Hi Sports after their 26-10 win over Bear River of Lake of the Pines in the Sac-Joaquin Section Division III title game, capping a 13-0 campaign. The CIF State championships began with a two-year pilot program in 2006 with two games and no regional playoffs, but have expanded to the point where there are 15 state title games, the
berths for most of which were filled with regional championship games. Vanden is making its first state title game appearance, while for their opponent, Aquinas of San Bernardino, it’s their second, the other coming in 2019. . . . The Falcons punched their ticket to the state final by rallying from a 21-7 second-quarter deficit to defeat Newport Harbor of Newport Beach, 42-28. According to maxpreps.com, running back Jusyis Solis rushed for 209 yards and three TDs and also caught a pass for a 28-yard gain. Quarterback Dre Robles completed 8-of-12 passes for 188 yards and two TDs, while Cesar Fernandez hauled in five passes for 133 yards. While Aquinas shut down the Newport Harbor running game – only 34 yards are listed – the Sailors did throw for 354 yards and three TDs. . . . Season stats aren’t complete for the Falcons, but in the 13 games reported, Solis rushed 176 times for 1,445 yards and 22 touchdowns with seven 100-yard games, averaging 8.2 yards per carry and 120.4 yards per game; Robles completed 109-of-204 passes (53.4 percent) for 1,803 yards and 17 touchdowns with six interceptions; Fernandez is the top deep threat with 36 catches for 772 yards, an average of 21.4 per reception, and seven TDs. . . . Vanden took the lead for good against Windsor on the second play of the game on a 64-yard pass from Tre Dimes to Jamai East. Dimes would throw for a city playoff-record five touchdowns, while East
added a touchdown on defense with a 45-yard interception return, his second straight game with a pick six as well as a TD reception and his third score playing defense in the postseason. . . . With at least one defensive touchdown in each of their four postseason games, the Vikings have scored a bunch of points in a hurry in each contest: against Dixon 28 points in the first quarter, 26 in the second; against Vista del Lago, three touchdowns in 1:59 as part of 43-point third quarter; against Merced, three touchdowns in 2:45 in the decisive fourth quarter; and against Windsor, three touchdowns in 1:47 as part of decisive 29-point second quarter. . . . With his 252 yards last week, Dimes became the first QB in city history to go over the 3,000 mark with 3,073. His five TD passes give him 44 for the season, tying the city and school record set by Jadon Brisdendine in 2013. His receivers are also moving up on Vanden’s single season lists: Brayden Chavez has caught 46 passes for 763 yards and seven TDs, Michael Belk has caught 42 passes for 946 yards and 14 TDs and East has caught 22 passes for 582 yards and 12 TDs. Chavez’s 46 receptions are tied for fifth with Brandon Neveadomi’s 46 in 2005, while his 763 yards ranking sixth; Belk’s 42 receptions are tied for 10th, his 946 yards ranking third and his 14 TDs ranking second;

immy Garoppolo met the media as he does each Wednesday, putting the best possible spin on a 6-6 season for the 49ers. Some 530 miles to the south, Derek Carr was performing the same function at a podium in Henderson, Nev., for the Raiders, serving as the face of another franchise with a .500 record. Both could be on the move this offseason. Garoppolo’s fate was sealed the moment the 49ers drafted Trey Lance, who was drafted at No. 3 overall to replace him. Carr’s status is more of a “maybe,” but the likelihood of him getting a fresh start somewhere else has increased with
the departure of Jon Gruden as head coach and the unknown of who will assume that role in 2022. Whoever it is will have his own ideas about the most important position in the NFL, and it may or may not include Carr. Garoppolo and Carr are too busy attempting to elevate their teams from the playoff fringe to put any serious time into a potential landing spot. Rest assured their agents – Don Yee for Garoppolo, Tim Younger for Carr – have thought about it plenty and will maneuver to put their client in the best possible position for success. The plum opportunities appear to be in New Orleans and Pittsburgh, See Options, Page B10
Curry now needs nine 3-pointers to break Allen’s NBA record Tribune Content Agency Golden State Warriors fans will now have to jump on a plane to see Stephen Curry break Ray Allen’s 3-point basket record.

for almost two weeks. He entered Wednesday’s game needing to break Klay Thompson’s single-game record of 15 to reach Ray Allen’s all-time mark of 2,973; he’s now within nine, a total he has hit in a game 38 times in his career.

Prep CIF Playoffs NorCal Division 3-AA Championship Friday, Dec. 3 Vanden 56, Windsor 28 State Division 3-AA Championship Saturday’s Game Aquinas at Vanden, 6 p.m.
Vanden: 349 points over last 6 games From Page B1 Against Vacaville, they couldn’t contain Bulldogs quarterback Ryan Vaughan, who passed for 207 yards and ran for 116 more, accounting for four of their five touchdowns. Being shutout in the second half didn’t help Vanden, either. “We had a team meeting following the Vaca High loss,” Murphy said. “The Monday after, our coaches asked our student-athletes to be very up front with how they felt, to own what they were feeling. That was a turning point for us, we felt closer as a team. A lot of issues were brought up. . . . We became closer as a team and a family.” What followed is the most dominant sixgame run in Vanden history. Starting with a 67-6 demolition of Armijo and extending to last week’s 56-28 mauling of Windsor in the Division 3-AA NorCal title game, the Vikings have outscored their last six foes by a combined 349-102. In just 14 of their 58 seasons have the Vikings reached 349 or more points and not until their 30th with 352 in 1994. While scouting the Vikings digitally in preparation for the game, Aquinas coach Jordan Brusig sees the green and gold as “very tough and very physical. They are relentless and play whistle to whistle.” Likewise, Murphy has watched plenty on the Falcons over the last week and is also impressed. “Their offensive and defensive lines get off the ball,” Murphy said. “Across the board, their offensive and defensive lines, they’re big and technically sound. They’re awfully impressive. We have to match their intensity. They have a bruising downhill running game. They spread you out and also go double tights. . . . We need to make them throw.” With good reason. In helping the Falcons rally from a 21-7 deficit for a 42-28 victory over Newport Harbor of Newport Beach in the Division 3-AA SoCal title game, freshman running back Jusyis Solis rushed for 209 yards and three touchdowns on 29 carries. In 13 of the 15 games reported to maxpreps.
com, Solis has rushed for 1,445 yards and 22 TDs. Yet forcing the Falcons to the air isn’t the best of options, either, as quarterback Dre Robles has thrown for 1,803 yards and 17 touchdowns, going 8-of-12 for 188 yards and two TDs against the Sailors. “Our offensive and defensive lines have to play a very good football game,” Murphy said. “That’s a key every week, but especially this week.
“That doesn’t matter,” the coach said. “This group hasn’t played in a state game. So this team needs to play it’s best game to win, or simply “play Falcon football.” Likewise, Brusig downplays his team having to travel to Northern California to play against the Vikings. “We have played away games,” he said. “Shouldn’t be an issue.” What’s been a big issue with the Vikings is the importance of playing for teammate Daniel Hughes, who was killed in a shooting incident during the spring season and figured to be a contributor to this year’s squad and the — Sean Murphy Vanden boys basketball team as well. “When practice the right calls to set pass protection, and Tre’s a starts to slide a little bit good athlete, he can buy or they’re not focused the way they need to be, one himself some time.” When asked about of his closer friends, one the strengths of his of seniors will mention it, team, Brusig said it goes and it re-motivates them,” beyond the physical, that Murphy said. “It daily it’s “our brotherhood. motivates.

‘Our offensive and defensive lines have to play a very good football game. That’s a key every week, but especially this week.’ They have to play very well and, again, execute. The guys need to know and do their job, eliminate silly penalties and win the turnover battle.” Not only have the Vikings been winning the turnover battle in the playoffs, they’ve used it in game-deciding surges: a 28-point first quarter and 26-point second quarter against Dixon; 21 points in1:59 as part of a 43-point third quarter against Vista del Lago; 21 points in 2:45 against Merced; and 21 points in 1:47 against Windsor. While the defense has played its part, Tre Dimes has put together a six-game stretch unlike any quarterback in city history, throwing for 1,1618 yards and 22 touchdowns in that span. When asked what has led to Dimes’ hot streak, Murphy said, “I think a couple things: I think he’s more comfortable with our new offensive schemes. Also, the receivers bought into the whole offensive concept, they’re running routes harder, blocking harder, doing little things to have a successful passing game, and our offensive line is getting better and better, giving him time to make big passes.” Dimes credits the deep and speedy corps of receivers he throws to. “They’re very skilled, they’re a very talented group of wide receivers,” the junior QB said. “They know how to get open very well and they know the spots where I want them to be and where

California’s ‘tort wars’ heat up again
O
ne of the Capitol’s most enduring conflicts pits personal injury attorneys and their allies in consumer advocacy groups against corporate interests and their insurers. The two factions clash incessantly over what events are deemed wrongful acts (torts), who can sue over those acts and what monetary damages can be awarded. Dubbed “tort wars,” the conflict has raged for decades in the Legislature, in the courts and occasionally via ballot measures, each side depicting itself as the good guys and the other as rapaciously evil. Millions of dollars are spent each year on lobbyists, media strategists, Dan Walters political campaign advisers and other tools of the political trade. The intensity of the war varies from year to year, and 2022 is shaping up as one its hotter periods as the factions propose dueling ballot measures. One would effectively undo a 1975 law that limits damages for “pain and suffering” in medical malpractice cases, while another would place a new limit on the fees that personal injury attorneys can claim. That 1975 law, titled the Medical Injury Compensation Reform Act (MICRA) and signed by Jerry Brown during his first year as governor, limits non-economic damages for malpractice to $250,000. Its passage was not only a big win for medical providers and their insurers but the opening salvo of the war. The attorneys not only have tried – very unsuccessfully so far – to repeal or modify MICRA but have sought to expand opportunities to sue and collect damages and fees, such as allowing them to intervene in cases that ordinarily would be handled by local or state legal authorities. Business groups and insurers, meanwhile, have not only attempted to blunt the attorneys’ expansive ambition but to carry the MICRA model of damage limits into other potential injury cases. In 1987, 12 years after MICRA was enacted, the speaker of the state Assembly, Willie Brown, mediated extensive negotiations between the warring factions on a truce, culminating in the infamous “napkin deal” worked out in Frank Fat’s restaurant near the Capitol with Brown hopping from table to table. Quickly ratified by the Legislature, it gave lobbyists for every interest involved something to take back to their clients, including a slight modification of MICRA and new protections for the tobacco industry from lawsuits by smokers for cancer and other illnesses. The napkin deal truce lasted for a few years, but tort wars resumed in the 1990s and have been waged ever since on specific issues, including several unsuccessful efforts to change MICRA. One subset of the conflict, involving roughly the same interests, has been perennial jousting over workers’ compensation, the employer-financed, multibillion-dollar system that covers job-related injuries and illnesses. A ballot measure that would indirectly but effectively repeal MICRA is already qualified for the 2022 ballot even though the anti-MICRA coalition has failed repeatedly in the past to undo what the Legislature and Jerry Brown wrought 46 years ago. Meanwhile, the Civil Justice Association of California, an umbrella organization of business and insurance interests, has unveiled its own initiative measure that would limit lawyers’ contingency fees in personal injury cases to 20% of monetary judgments, sharply lower than the traditional one-third or more. The goal, obviously, is to make attorneys less willing to take on cases. The stage is set, therefore, for the competing factions to spend tens of millions of dollars to persuade voters, which would be a tiny fraction of the many billions of dollars at stake in the outcome. And regardless of what happens next year, the immense stakes mean tort wars will continue to rage indefinitely.

chase when I saw a bag of chips that was new or unfamiliar. I was immediately fixated at how awesome the bag looked. I thought to myself that these chips must be good because the package looked so captivating. They are attempting to get the attention of people with their packaging, and it definitely worked on me. I don’t even eat potato chips anymore, but I walked out of the store with those overpriced, unhealthy chips. The point is this: What the eyes see as appealing influences our decision making. It is also true in how employers select candidates. Most employers will not admit it, but appearance has a significant effect on their hiring decisions. We live in a very shallow world, one where our youth will be judged on how they look and how they speak. Their appearance and their ability to communicate will play a key role in whether they will be accepted in a business environment or in a particular career. Is this judgmental? Absolutely! But it is world we must live in. And to be honest, some people are in certain positions not because they have earned the credentials and have the experience. Some are there simply because of their appearance. With that said, it is wise for today’s youth generation to make the necessary adjustments to project an appropriate professional image to increase their value in a very challenging job market.

Small businesses are less able to afford such losses. Many are hanging on by a shoestring to stay open. California should not be known as a “shoplifter’s paradise.” The governor called for increased law enforcement by the California Highway Patrol around shopping malls and nearby freeways. That is a good first step. But it is not enough. In the absence of meaningful changes in the law that prioritize public safety, more stores will face more criminal behavior during uncertain economic times, and everyday Californians will feel less safe in our communities. Enough is enough. Let’s bring back common sense. Public safety is important to our security and sense of community. Things do not have to be this way. Laws must be changed to bring back accountability.

The 10 best movies of 2021: You haven’t heard of the year’s best film. I almost guarantee it
Crossword
Michael Phillips Chicago Tribune
This is how the year went. It started with the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol: the most enraged, and enraging, nonfiction film of 2021, instantly reframed by competing 24-hour news cycles as cautionary mythology. Homegrown terrorism? Or just desserts for the unjustly elected? It depended on your cable news of choice. It was the worst kind of cultural curtain raiser. Now, at the other end of the year, we’re going out with a mainstream Hollywood reminder – terrific, by the way, if “West Side Story” is your thing – that the good old days millions are desperate to reinstate always were better for some of us more than others. This was a year of forced and increasingly rickety movie optimism, mine included. Those of us with a congenital filmgoing habit, thwarted or at least discouraged by Covid, kept an eye on each new promise of hope on a big screen. Back in March it was “Godzilla vs. Kong,” released in theaters simultaneously with its corporately mobbed-up HBO Max streaming premiere. Then it was the ninth “Fast & Furious” film. Then “In the Heights.” Then, another pandemically delayed franchise title: “Eternals.” And another, long delayed like most everything in 2021: “No Time to Die.” And “Dune,” the grandest images of which really did feel special. Some made money around the world, some didn’t. Few if any felt like big deals, really, because the burdens and crises of these times made for tough competition. So you chase the talent where it takes you. These are the 10 screen experiences I appreciated the most this year, mostly “film,” some “television.” Truly, 2021 (or 2020, or 2019, or … ) was the year the conventional distinctions between platforms all but vanished, like the mistenshrouded witch in the upcoming Denzel Washington/ Frances McDormand “Tragedy of Macbeth.” (Really good, by the way.) Some of these titles you’ll know. At least one – my No. 1 – you very likely will not know, because it’s not a commodity from a conglomerate, and it’ll play a limited run early next year in a handful of cities including Chicago. I’m grateful to live in a city listening, maybe more intently now, to the voices of today.

Streaming on Netflix 7. “Licorice Pizza”: In the 1970s San Fernando Valley, an asterisk-riddled friendship develops between a teenage actor/high schooler (Cooper Hoffman) and a restless, multidirectional, 10-years-older woman (Alana Haim). Paul Thomas Anderson’s latest has its ups and downs, just as its tetchy, yearning characters do, but a lot of it’s fabulous, fluid scene-setting and reminiscence, with a waterbed-delivery sequence that reminds us all how funny Bradley Cooper (as real-life Hollywood horndog Jon Peters) can be, given the chance. 8. “Summer of Soul.” The greatest concert film of 1969 and 2021. Streaming on Hulu 9. “It’s a Sin”: This five-episode stunner from writer-creator Russell T Davies depicts 10 years in the life of a public health crisis, bringing a wonderful array of London characters to life in the shadow of AIDS. Streaming on HBO Max 10. Tie: “The Green Knight” and “The Tragedy of Macbeth”: A fine pair of bookends, bracketing centuries-old tales of perverted chivalry, supernatural intervention and political machinations. David Lowery’s cunning, unpredictable take on a 14th century poem stars Dev Patel; in “Macbeth,” director Joel Coen takes a cue or two from Orson Welles, Carl Dreyer and his own pulp fictions for a sleek, black-and-white streak through Shakespeare’s shortest tragedy. Denzel Washington, Frances McDormand and especially Kathryn Hunter remind us that in the realm of screen Shakespeare, you never know what’s coming tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow.

that are easy to follow, read on! But first, would you open the South hand with one spade or one no-trump (15-17 points)? Nowadays, the style is to bid one no-trump because it describes the nature and strength of the hand so much more accurately than one spade. However, this hand is not worth its face value of 15 points with a doubleton king-queen and an unsupported jack. (Kaplan-Rubens rates it at 14.3 points.) When South did open one no-trump, West doubled for penalty. North probably should have run to two clubs. Yes, that could have cost 1100, but surely East would have introduced his heart suit. Also, if East had passed or doubled, South might have rebid two spades. If that were doubled, it would have gone down three, minus 800. But would West have given East the chance to double? Maybe you are saying to yourself that that is still expensive, but FROM ANDREWS MCMEEL note that East-West could have made SYNDICATION six of either red suit for 1370 or 1430.

Travis Scott says he had no idea what was happening in the crowd at his deadly Astroworld Festival in Houston last month, and he was told only that the show would be stopped after guest Drake had left the stage. The rapper sat down for a one-on-one interview with Charlamagne Tha God – his first since the deaths of 10 people after a crowd crush during his headlining set Nov. 5. Their conversation was posted Thursday on the radio personality’s YouTube channel. “It’s like a sea to you,” Scott said of the crowd of 50,000 people in front of him that night. “You got lights, you got sound, you got pyro, you got your in-ears (audio monitors) . . . you got your mic, you got your music, you got your band.” He said he typically relies on “fans’ energy as a collective, call and response, and I just didn’t hear that.” “Everything kinda just sounds the same,” he told Charlamagne, a co-host of “The Breakfast Club” syndicated radio show. Scott said he heard none of the cries to stop the show and help those who had been swept up in the crush. The only thing he was told during the set, he said, was “right after the guests get offstage, we’re going to end the show. But it wasn’t communication on why. That’s what came to my (in-ear monitors).” That night, after a crowd-control problem earlier in the evening at the merchandise tent, Houston police declared a “mass casualty event” about 30 minutes into Scott’s set when crowds surged toward the stage. The rapper performed for 40 more minutes, and said in the new interview that he didn’t know people had died until moments before a press conference. Scott said in an Instagram video posted the next day, “I could never imagine the severity of the situation.” Charlamagne asked Scott what he would say directly to those who lost loved ones. Growing emotional, Scott replied that he’d want them to know they were all part of his family, and that he

Rapper Travis Scott at Game 6 of the World Series, in Houston, Nov. 2. would be there to help them heal through their grief. Also, he committed to finding a solution to guarantee this kind of tragedy doesn’t happen in the future. “I feel like that’s what we gotta figure out. . . . Other than that,” he said with an incredulous look in his eyes, “the show goes on tomorrow.” People familiar with the business need to “really figure this out. Not take this lightly, you know? And really act on it,” Scott said. “And that’s one of the main things that’s important; I feel like they gotta just act on it. It can’t be, like, something that just happens and it just roll over. It’s got to be something that’s taken serious, and addressed seriously.” Scott is facing at least a dozen lawsuits from those who lost loved ones at the show. Drake, promoters LiveNation and Scoremore, livestreamer Apple, multiple contracted security companies and the contracted medical services provider also are named in the various lawsuits. At least one law firm is soliciting members for a class action suit, looking for people who were injured or the families of people who died. “This was preventable. The crowd was allowed to get too dense and was not managed properly,” a concert safety consultant, Paul Wertheimer, told the Los Angeles Times the day after the tragedy. “The fans were the victims of an environment in which they could not control.” Scott, meanwhile, said he had managed to speak with some of the families of people who died but said he wanted to keep those conversations private. Several families of the victims, however, have refused his offers to pay funeral expenses.

Notice To Potential Bidders: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. Notice To Property Owner: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (877) 440-4460 or visit this Internet Web site www.mkconsultantsinc.com, using the file number assigned to this case 210816128. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. Notice To Tenant: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (877) 440-4460, or visit this internet website site www.tlssales.info, using the file number assigned to this case 210816128 to find the date on which the trusteeʼs sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trusteeʼs sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trusteeʼs sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

connections that go back to the 2014 draft and would likely have suitors via trade in a year that’s considered a down one for draft-eligible quarterbacks. Jimmy G or Derek Carr? Unless there’s some fire to go with the smoke around Seattle’s Russell Wilson, or Houston’s Deshaun Watson extricates himself from civil lawsuits alleging sexual assault, Garoppolo and Carr are 1-2, depending on who is doing the evaluating. Carr and Garoppolo were first linked as quarterbacks on the South team in the Senior Bowl under then-Jacksonville head coach Gus Bradley. Their stats were eerily similar as seniors in 2013. At Fresno State, Carr completed 68.9 percent of his passes for 5,083 yards,
50 touchdowns and nine interceptions. At Eastern Illinois, Garoppolo completed 66 percent of his passes for 5,050 yards, 53 touchdowns and nine interceptions. There was some first-round buzz for both, but they waited until Round 2. Carr went at No. 36 to Oakland and Garoppolo No. 62 to New England as the heir apparent to Tom Brady. As it turned out, both have had better careers than the three quarterbacks that went in Round 1 – Blake Bortles of Central Florida (No. 3 to Jacksonville), Johnny Manziel of Texas A&M (No. 22 to Cleveland) and Teddy Bridgewater of Louisville (No. 32 to Minnesota). While Carr beat out Matt Schaub and started right away, Garoppolo waited as Brady showed
no signs of the natural aging process. Coach Kyle Shanahan and general manager John Lynch were in their first year with they swung an in-season Halloween deal to acquire Garoppolo in exchange for a secondround draft pick. Playing under revolving coaches and coordinators, Carr put up good numbers and led the Raiders to a 12-4 season in 2016, fracturing his fibula in Week 16. The Raiders rewarded Carr in December of 2017 with a five-year contract worth $125 million, making him the highest-paid player in the NFL. Two months later, that distinction would belong to Garoppolo, who got a five-year, $137.5 million contract after leading the previously 1-10 49ers to five straight wins to close out the season.
