Residents survey the damage to their home in Pleasants Valley from the LNU Lightning Complex Fire, Aug. 24, 2020. Solano County supervisors voted Tuesday to

skip the June 2022 election for a possible fire safety tax measure and instead target the later November 2022 election.

Solano supervisors push ‘fire tax’ ballot measure back to November Todd R. Hansen

THANSEN@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — Solano County supervisors will continue to talk about a proposed sales tax increase to pay for wildfire safety needs, but will not ask for the voters’ support just yet.

The Board of Supervisors on Tuesday voted not to place a general eighth-cent sales tax increase measure on the June 7 ballot, hoping instead to get the support from city fire chiefs and firefighter unions in developing a plan on how best to use the estimated $9 million in annual revenue the tax would generate.

The measure called for a 20-year sunset.

Board Chairman John Vasquez said if it was up to him he would go ahead with the measure in June, and Supervisor Monica Brown said she is “terrified” that putting the matter off will become part of the county’s long history of talking

about the issue without action.

Brown noted that the Red Top Road area had three fires last year, a location that is just “three football fields from my home.”

“I’m terrified,” said Brown, noting the wildfire that also devastated Santa Rosa and saying the same could happen in Solano County cities, too. “So I’m going to have to have a lot of convincing that something is going to happen (in November), and I’m not seeing it.”

“I’m tired of hearing we’ve been talking about it,” Vasquez said.

In the end, though, the two supervisors joined the other three to push the issue back for consideration to the Nov. 8 ballot.

However, the board also asked for a commitment from those interested parties opposed to the measure to step up and help come up with a workable plan.

He got that verbal commitment from Jeff Toynbee, who was at the meeting representing the International Association of Fire Fighters Professional Firefighters Union Local 1186. He had See Tax, Page A8

County: Finances in decent shape at midyear, due in part to vacancies Todd R. Hansen

THANSEN@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — Solano County revenues grew by $30 million from forecasted levels at the start of the 2021-22 fiscal year July 1, largely due to one-time funds from the Genentech property tax settlement and a $6 million spike in the state Proposition 172 public safety sales tax share.

The midyear revenues are up to $1.64 billion, the county reported.

At the same time, expenditures were down largely due to salary and benefit savings from vacancies, which in February reached nearly 400 positions.

The Board of Supervisors were told Tuesday as part of a midyear review the county now expects to carry over $44.3 million into the 2022-23 fiscal year that begins July 1. That includes a $14 million

The year-end balance to start the current fiscal year was $56.1 million, but $38 million went to balance the shortfall in the operations budgets.

Another $14 million went into contingencies and $4.8 million into various reserve accounts.

Since then, the county has been building that year-end funding balance back up with extra revenues and expenditure savings.

“I think a good way to look at the county is to look at its three biggest funds,” said Ian Goldberg, the county budget officer. The three combine to represent about $900 million of the

$1.1 billion budget.

The general fund was at a midyear appropriations level of $308.2 million, with $10.9 million in increased revenue and $12.2 million in expenditure savings.

The public safety fund was at $237.7 million with $9.6 million in decreased revenue, but an equal cut in expenditures. The general fund’s contribution to public safety was down $12.7 million to $131.8 million.

The largest fund – Health and Social Services – was at $360.6 million with revenues down $32.3 million and expenditures down $34.5 million.

The general fund added $67,000 to its contribution, taking the amount to $32.7 million.

The board also adjusted the number of employee positions by 17, with 22 added and five deleted. That takes the number of approved full-time equivalent posi-

tions to 3,189.83. The vacancies as of February totaled 388.39.

One growing concern is the skyrocketing price of fuel for the county vehicles.

The California Public Employees’ Retirement System rate for the miscellaneous fund is anticipated to increase from 28.96% to 29.86%, while the public safety account rate is expected to drop from 38.39% to 37.82%.

Only $250,000 in board-approved American Rescue Plan Act funds are reflected in the budget, funds that went to hire paralegals and help with the court landlord-tenant eviction disputes.

The board also wants the proposed budget that comes back in June to include funds for fire safety issues – notably a dispatch service to connect all fire agencies, but also funds that can help the rural districts.

WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden announced on Tuesday that the U.S. will ban the importing of Russian oil, liquefied natural gas and coal, broadening the economic sanctions leveled against Moscow over its war in Ukraine.

The targeting of Russia’s most lucrative industry despite the likelihood of higher gasoline prices comes as bipartisan support in Congress has coalesced behind such restrictions and Europe has begun taking steps to reduce its imports of Russian energy products. The oil ban and other tough sanctions are being imposed

by Western powers in the hopes of persuading Russian President Vladimir Putin to halt his all-out attack on the former Soviet republic.

Ukraine’s refugee tally hits 2 million Tribune Content Agency KYIV, Ukraine — World condemnation of Russia’s war against neighboring Ukraine intensified Tuesday as a trickle of trapped civilians from one city made their way toward relative safety, but another agreed-upon pathway, from a battered and encircled seaport, came under Russian bombardment.

Ukraine welcomed the toughening of Western sanctions against Moscow, including President Joe Biden’s announcement Tuesday of a U.S. ban on importing Russian oil. But Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy continued to plead for more forceful intervention in a 13-day-old conflict that has produced more than 2 million refugees and shaken world markets.

“Please increase the pressure of sanctions against this country, and please recognize this

country as a terrorist state,” Zelenskyy said, blasting Russia in a video speech Tuesday to Britain’s Parliament – a rare honor accorded to a foreign leader.

Zelenskyy reminded Britain of its own struggle against conquest by the Nazis in World War II and, in a deliberate echo of Winston Churchill, said Ukraine would never give in.

“We will continue fighting for our land, whatever the cost. We will fight in the forests, in the fields, on the shores, in the streets,” he told a packed House of Commons, which gave him a standing ovation.

Britain announced Tuesday that it would join the U.S. in taking action against Russian oil, with plans to phase out such imports by the end of the year. And adding to the list of mega-corporations abandoning Russia, McDonald’s announced it was temporarily closing See Ukraine, Page A8

“Russian oil will no longer be accepted at U.S. ports,” Biden said in a speech from the White House. “We will not be part of subsidizing Putin’s war.”

“Russia may continue to grind out its advance at a horrible price, but this much is already clear: Ukraine will never be a victory for Putin. Putin may be able to take a city. But he’ll never be able to hold the country,” Biden said, adding that the ban would target “the main artery of Russia’s economy.”

Biden’s action was welcomed by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who tweeted he was “thankful” the president had delivered a blow at “the heart of Putin’s war machine and banning oil, gas and coal from US market. Encour-

We all to tell you!” try to get together at least once “What is it?” I said. And she a year, usually for Thanksgivwhispered, “I love you!”

I felt like Nana of the Year.

The next day, Charlotte asked me, “What’s the difference in first and second cousins?”

I wasn’t sure how to explain it, but I tried. Then she asked, “Is Henry my second-cousin?”

“No,” I said. “Technically, you are cousins by marriage.

Papa Mark and I got married, so we get to share you. But cousins are just cousins, the way family is family and friends are friends. They’re not firsts or seconds. They’re just people we love.”

She smiled. Then I told her a story about me and my cousins.

My mother’s parents had 10 children, all married, some more than once, and 22 grandchildren. Our big, crazy family gathered at their home most every Sunday to smoke and joke and argue and eat fried chicken, corn on the cob and banana pudding. It was good.

After we ate, the girl cousins sat on the steps singing hymns and laughing at the boy cousins who ran around the yard trying to kill each other with sticks. It felt a lot like Heaven on Earth.

I wish you could’ve seen us.

The point of that story is this: A good family is the gift of a lifetime. And cousins can make family life a whole lot more fun.

Charlotte laughed at my story. Especially the part about the boy cousins. Then she told me all about her neighborhood.

It’s a lovely community of homes built along a winding creek where in summer families float on inner tubes, stopping along the way to share a drink or a meal with their neighbors.

“I have so many friends who live there!” Charlotte said. “And we do so many fun things!”

I watched her face light up as she talked about their Fourth of July parade, trick-or-treating on Halloween, parties at

Christmas, riding bikes and sharing stories. She and a few kids her age even formed their own bookclub.

I’ve seen that same excitement in my other grandchildren when they talk about their friends – going to sleepovers (where no one sleeps), playing in the park or chasing each other around somebody’s backyard.

They don’t have 22 “real” cousins. But they have friends who feel like cousins, and a few cousins-by-marriage who make family gatherings more fun.

Best of all, they have a big, crazy “blended” family that is bound together by love.

And we hardly ever try to kill each other with sticks.

Disney relaxes mask mandate Tribune Content Agency ORLANDO, Fla. — As the Covid-19 pandemic wanes, Disney Cruise Line is set to join other lines in relaxing mask requirements at sea.

In an update to its safety policies on its website, the line announced that starting Friday it would allow guests to go about without face coverings indoors. Until then, the line insists on wearing masks

indoors for all guests ages 2 and up no matter their vaccination status. The exceptions are for when they’re in their cabins or actively eating or drinking.

It already allowed face coverings to be removed outdoors except when social distancing could not be maintained, following guidelines from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

But as the CDC guidelines have been relaxed, so too are cruise lines.

Fairfield checkpoint results in 5 arrests Daily Republic Staff

DRNEWS@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — Five arrests were made for driving under the influence of alcohol Saturday by police during its DUI-driver’s license checkpoint at West Texas and 5th streets.

The checkpoint was held in partnership with the Solano County Pro-

bation Department and the Solano County Sheriff’s Office.

There were 650 drivers screened.

In addition to the DUI arrests, 31 drivers were cited/arrested for operating a vehicle unlicensed or with a suspended/revoked license, and 16 vehicles were towed.

California’s wild pig population has soared since various non-native boar and pig breeds were introduced centuries ago, according to a press release from Dodd’s office. They now can be found in 56 of the state’s 58 counties.

Numerous environmental and public health problems are associated with pigs. The California Department of Fish and Wildlife allows year-round pig hunting.

MMILLER@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — Legislation from Sen. Bill Dodd, D-Napa, that would help control California’s growing wild pig population cleared a committee Tuesday.

Senate Bill 856 has support from wildlife officials and farmers, among other groups. It passed the Senate Natural Resources and Water committee.

The goal of the legislation is to reduce damage caused by the invasive species to the environ-

lift remaining hunting restrictions, allowing for what’s described in the press release as better population control and habitat management.

“Feral pigs cause significant damage in our state to the environment, private property, agriculture and other wildlife,” said Eric Sklar, member of the California Fish and Game Commission, in Dodd’s release “They are not native and are a real challenge to many native species. We need to take a broad approach to reducing the feral pig

population . . .”

The committee also cleared a second bill from Dodd, SB 865, which increases the eligibility age for a junior hunting license in California, opening opportunities to participate in outdoor sports to a greater number of young people.

Dodd currently represents the 3rd Senate District, which includes all or portions of Solano, Napa, Yolo, Sonoma, Contra Costa and Sacramento counties.

Solano board adds awareness to Down syndrome Todd R. Hansen

Supervisor Erin Hannigan said in making the presentation.

The mothers lauded the county for bringing awareness to the topic and noted while there are resources and support in the community, more is needed.

Down syndrome, also referred to as Down’s syndrome, is a genetic disorder caused by the presence of all or part of a third copy of chromosome 21, the CDC noted. Those who have the disorder typically show distinct facial characteristics, physical growth delays and mild to moderate intellectual disability.

Obituaries

William ‘Bill’ Richard Hale July 5, 1946 — Feb. 20, 2022

Bill passed away unexpectedly at home on his ranch on Feb. 20, 2022.

He was born in Sacramento, California.

Bill graduated from Armijo High School in 1964 where he was an athlete in both track and field and football.

Following graduation, he served in the National Guard for four years before returning to his roots in the Suisun Valley where he went into farming on his family’s property, Hale Ranch.

He would go onto farm a variety of crops with his largest focuses being safflower, wheat, sugar beets and beans. Bill was awarded ‘Top Five Sugar Producers’ in 1996 and ‘Outstanding Sugar Producer’ in 1997 by Spreckels Sugar.

He married Lorie (Flannery) in September 1988.

They were married for 26 years before Lorie’s passing in 2014. During their marriage they had one daughter, Billie, born in April 1989.

Aside from his passion for agriculture, he enjoyed many hobbies such as aviation, hunting, fishing, daytrips with his wife Lorie, and his love for black Labrador retrievers.

FAIRFIELD FUNERAL HOME

During his early years, Bill enjoyed trips to Colorado for deer hunting with friends; in addition he was an active duck, pheasant and dove hunter. Bill also took frequent trips to Liberty Island for catfishing with his family.

He was a member of the Native Sons of the Golden West Solano #39.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Thomas D. and Mary Ione (Mangels); and sister, Mary Ann. We encourage all who knew Bill to help us remember him in a celebration of life at 1:30 p.m. Friday, March 11, 2022, at Bryan-Braker Funeral Home, 1850 W. Texas St., Fairfield. Reception to follow.

Solano Covid numbers undergo Fairfield school big correction, but trend is down board looks at Todd R. Hansen

THANSEN@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — Monday was a massive correction day for Covidrelated information in Solano County.

The country reported 4,115 new coronavirus cases – 114 since Friday’s report – and four additional deaths of Solano residents who died in out-of-county hospitals, one dating to December 2020, Dr. Bela Matyas, the county public health officer, said in a phone interview Monday.

Most of the cases came from January and February.

The new cases took the total for the panAaron Rosenblatt/Daily Republic demic to 83,793, but the daily average since the A pedestrian wears a face mask while walking along Jackson Street in Fairfield, Monday. last report dropped to 38 over the three-day 65 years old, who died in city’s total to 21,442.

Garden Club members to talk native plants Daily Republic Staff DRNEWS@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — The Fairfield Garden Club will welcome Kathleen Catton from the California Native Plant Society’s Willis Jepson Chapter at the next meeting.

Choosing landscape plants in California can be a challenge given extended droughts, wildfires and extreme heat, the garden club reports.

When you use California plants, you can be sure they’ll survive your local climate and even help

you save water. Native plants also benefit local wildlife such as bees, butterflies and birds.

Catton will share how to use CALSCAPE to find plants by street address, to help assist people in their selections for their location.

The Fairfield Garden Club meeting will begin at 1:30 p.m. March 16 at the Fairfield Adult Recreation Center. 1200 Civic Center Drive.

For more information, call Mary Colridge at 707-330-9920.

projected shortfall of $35.7M Susan Hiland SHILAND@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — An early view of the Fairfield-Suisun School District’s financial picture shows a shortfall in the general fund of tens of millions of dollars and the need to reduce costs in coming years.

The School Board will vote Thursday on the second interim report and certification of the district’s ability to meet its financial obligations for the coming year.

The financial review has several parts: district certification of the interim report; a general fund statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balance that are either unrestricted resources or restricted resources; a combined summary that includes average daily attendance, criteria and standards, a cash flow statement, a multiple-year projection and assumptions along with the combined resources summary for unrestricted resources or restricted resources.

There’s a projected decrease in the unrestricted fund balance of $14.3 million, which is partially due to the carryover of 2020-21 funds that were not fully spent, according to a staff report. There is also a projected decrease in the restricted fund balance of $21.4 million, also due to the carryover of 2020-21 funds that were not fully spent.

Staff projects a

general fund decrease of $35.7 million.

Deficit spending is a reflection of fiscal stress, according to the staff report.

The minimum reserve required by the state is just more than $9.92 million. The projection for the special reserve fund balance is nearly $10.715 million.

The district can borrow from other district funds or borrow from the Solano County treasurer under the provisions of a Constitutional Advance of Anticipate if it is needed, which at this time it is not, according to the staff report.

Some changes noted for the second interim are based upon current known factors and include spending cuts of $13.1 million in 202324. A decrease in salary and benefit costs due to vacancy savings and deficit spending in the current year will significantly reduce available funds in the subsequent years, according to the staff report.

The district is still waiting for the final budget from the governor in May, after which staff and the board can reassess the district’s financial situation.

Trustees meet at 6 p.m. at the Central Office Board Room, 2490 Hilborn Road, Fairfield. Meetings are also available through the school district’s website, https://go.boarddocs. com/ca/fsusd/Board. nsf/Public.

Neither side of your conflict will be a clear winner, but the situation will resolve.

TAURUS (April 20May 20). Time bends. When you’re waiting, the minutes stretch through eternity. When you’re in the flow, time blurs.

And in your dreams, time is irrelevant. As you master this day, you’ll seem to have control over the flow of time.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

You may pretend you don’t know something because it helps the other person save face, or focus your attention on what others need even though it’s silly. In the end, diplomacy benefits you.

by Holiday Mathis

Today’s birthday Your specialty this year is delighting people. You’ll build on past work to create what no one is expecting. You’ll be paid well for taking on some unusual responsibilities. Fun dates and travel will be summer highlights. Your empathy and compassion attract quality people.

Together, you’ll make a difference in the world.

Sagittarius and Leo adore you.

Your lucky numbers are: 12, 44, 8, 18 and 20.

Your critical thinking skills are on point. You’ll make keen observations and articulate them well. This benefits you best when strategically paired with the spirit of diplomacy.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

You know what it’s like to say the wrong thing at the wrong moment, so you react with compassion when someone else makes this mistake. The goodwill you generate helping someone save face is karma in the bank.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

Fear is energy; it is therefore directable. Fear can give you the fuel to run, think fast or

fight. If you know where you’ll run to, what problem you’ll solve or what’s worth fighting, you’ll have a good place to direct the energy.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21). The tools used to create will be a focus. But don’t be fooled; the tools do not make the creation. Creativity is in the head and heart. Fancy, expensive tools can actually work against the art.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19). You’re confident in your abilities, but a loved one is even more so, talking you up behind your back and paving the way for your next opportunity.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18). A conversation has stretched on and on and will continue to do so until someone walks away. Since no agreement will be reached, you must decide whether the conversation is intrinsically rewarding to stick with.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

There’s a decision to make about a relationship. It’s not something you’ll make together.

Think about what you want and what you won’t have and make some plans about what you’ll do when and if your boundaries are crossed.

THE ROBOTS DO MAKE SOME CRAZY CALLS Today’s deal occurred during an online individual robot tournament run by the American Contract Bridge League. One human and three robots were at each table.

This deal occurred at the end of last year and was reported by Roman L. Weil.

How do you expect the auction to

Sudoku

by Phillip Alder proceed after West opens one heart and East raises to two hearts?

The robots play by using simulation.

They produce a number of deals that satisfy the criteria and pick the action that works best.

In this case, a human would surely overcall five clubs. A few might even gamble on six clubs. But the popular robot action was a takeout double!

The deal was played 34 times. At all but four, the contract was four hearts down two.

Once, after South doubled, West bid only three hearts, so North competed with three spades, East doubled and everyone passed! That was a top for East-West. South’s computer chips must have short-circuited.

Two other times, North was in three spades undoubled.

At the last table, West opened one no-trump, purportedly 15-17 points.

East transferred into spades, and at last a robot jumped to five clubs. West doubled but found that he couldn’t defeat the contract. Plus 550 was a top for North-South.

An excellent rule of thumb is never to make a takeout double short in an unbid major. After South’s double, that player would always have a hard task persuading partner that he could not tolerate a spade contract.

Weil concluded, “Don’t plan to see a nine-card suit soon.”

Kobalt music lines up $550 million in debt to buy song rights Bloomberg Kobalt Music Group has raised $550 million in debt financing for the acquisition of music copyrights, according to a person familiar with the deal, giving the closely held company funds to build its catalog.

JPMorgan Chase and HPS Investment Partners provided the funds, said the person, who asked not to be identified because the terms haven’t been announced.

All three parties declined to comment.

A resurgence in listening, sparked in part

by Spotify Technology’s streaming service, has boosted the value of song rights and led artists like Bob Dylan and Bruce Springsteen to sell their catalogs.

That’s led to frenzied

Swedish entrepreneur Willard Ahdritz founded Kobalt two decades ago to provide tools and services to songwriters.

From that initial focus, the company grew it into one of the largest independent music businesses in the world.

Kobalt runs a music publishing company, which works with songwriters, as well as AMRA, which collects royalties on behalf of rights holders.

The company on Monday reported its first ever annual profit, announcing earnings of $48.5 million before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, on $548 million in gross revenue for the year ended last June.

asked the board not to put the measure on the June ballot, and to wait for November so there could be more discussion on a plan.

The City Fire Chiefs Association also has opposed the measure, arguing it is inadequate to do what the county wants to accomplish. Members have even suggested the plan should be developed by the fire chiefs in the county.

One of the concerns, said association President Kris Concepcion, the Vacaville fire chief, is reaching a like-for-like service so the cities know they will get the standard of training and equipment from the rural districts as those districts get from the cities.

The firefighters have supported the idea of a consolidated countywide department, while the city chiefs have not taken a position on that, but are

not opposed to a unified rural district.

The county board has until July 26 to introduce the ordinance setting the ballot language, and until Aug. 12 to make a final decision to meet the ballot deadline for Nov. 8. The next scheduled election would be March 2024, though a special election would be an option, too.

Supervisor Jim Spering, who made the motion to delay the measure, said in the meantime the county needs to make its own commitment and provide funding that will help the rural fire districts with immediate needs.

There also was a general consensus the county needs to move forward on a central dispatch system to connect all fire agencies, and if that system initially has to be separated from law enforcement, then that is what should be done.

Placing the measure on the June 7 ballot did not have the support of Supervisor Erin Hannigan, who initially

had sought park and open space funding for improved public access.

She had argued there was otherwise no reason for Vallejo residents to support a tax from which they would not benefit.

However, Hannigan went “bigger and bolder” in her latest arguments, saying the funding plan does not go far enough to cover the wildfire safety needs of the county.

“It is not the bigger, bolder, courageous plan we need,” Hannigan said. “I don’t want to see anybody’s home burn, again, but we need to be innovative.”

Jeff Dittmer, a director on the Cordelia Fire Protection District board, said the proposed increase would not pay for the “perfect plan” some people are seeking: a plan that would need five or six more equipped stations scattered around the county with 24-hour, seven-day staffing.

He likened the perfect plan to the Fairfield Fire Department’s resources and the $26 million

annual budget to operate its six stations and manage the personnel and equipment needs.

That budget figure would depend largely on how much the firefighters were paid, and other possible cost savings.

“Perfect is the mortal enemy of good. We need something that is good and achievable,” Dittmer said.

Cordelia Fire Chief David Carpenter said if rural districts begin to fail, the ability to fight wildland fires would be sorely diminished.

Losing Cordelia, which is considered the district at greatest risk, would lessen that force by 5% to 7%, he said.

“You have heard big and bold, and mine was small and meaningful,” Vasquez added.

While a specific increase in the proposal was not discussed, the use of pandemic-related American Rescue Plan Act funding and possibly other sources to offset the extra costs was raised.

Biden From Page One

Wally Skalij/Los Angeles Times/TNS

Ukrainian refugees take shelter at the Ukrainian House in Przemysl, Poland, Monday.

Ukraine From Page One its more than 800 stores in the country.

In announcing the United States’ oil ban, Biden castigated Russian President Vladimir Putin for his “murderous path” in Ukraine, but insisted Ukrainians would defend “their freedom, their democracy, their lives.”

Poland announced it was planning to send about two dozen Soviet-era MiG fighter planes to the U.S. air base at Ramstein, Germany. It was not clear if this was meant as a first step in transferring the aircraft to Ukrainian hands, as Zelenskyy has sought, or if it was the Polish government extricating itself from a deal that would be likely to incur Putin’s wrath.

In northeastern Ukraine, residents of the besieged Ukrainian city of Sumy began evacuating through a designated safe corridor Tuesday despite fears that Russian bombing could resume without warning. But another supposedly safe route, from the southern port of Mariupol, came under further shelling that prevented people from finding a way out of the embattled city, Ukrainian authorities said.

NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg, visiting Latvia, cited credible reports that civilians who were attempting to flee fighting were coming under deliberate fire by Russian forces.

“Targeting civilians is a war crime, and it’s totally unacceptable,” he said.

Also Tuesday, the German federal prosecutor’s office said it had launched a preliminary investigation into possible war crimes carried out by Russian forces in Ukraine. Germany applies the principle of universal jurisdiction to war-crimes cases.

And in jarringly sobering and frank testimony, the director of the CIA, William Burns, and other senior U.S. intelligence officials told Congress that, far from being deterred by the setbacks his army is experiencing, Putin is likely to escalate.

“He’s likely to double down and try to grind down the Ukrainian military with no regard for civilian casualties,” Burns said. “He has no sustainable political endgame in the face of what is going to continue to be fierce resistance from Ukrainians.”

Burns, a former U.S. ambassador to Russia, said Putin calculated that Ukraine was weak and easily intimidated, that his own army would roll in to quick victory, and that he had managed to “sanctions-proof” his economy, and he got it wrong on each score.

“He has been stewing in a combustible combination of grievance and ambition for many years,” Burns said.

The civilians trying to leave their homes in Sumy and Mariupol are part of a startling exodus from Ukraine that has now surpassed 2 million people

in less than two weeks, the United Nations said. Relentless Russian assaults have led to snowballing humanitarian crises and a rush to flee Europe’s biggest land war in 75 years.

Whether the shelling and airstrikes will pause long enough to allow out all those who want to escape remains to be seen. Two previous agreed-upon cease-fires quickly collapsed, forcing thousands of people to scurry back to their homes or shelters in cities where drinking water, power, communications and the supply of food and medicine have been disrupted.

And there was no relief for beleaguered areas not covered by the deal to set up so-called humanitarian corridors. The city of Mykolaiv reported new attacks from Russian forces trying to conquer Ukraine’s southern coast, to choke off crucial access to the Black and Azov seas.

The evacuations from Sumy and Mariupol were to begin Tuesday morning after Russian and Ukrainian negotiators agreed on exit routes.

Video showed refugees boarding buses in Sumy, a city near the Russian border, with a significant population of foreign students; residents could choose to head south, to the town of Poltava, or to Russia.

From Mariupol, a city of 430,000 people that has been surrounded and pounded for days by Russian troops, buses were given the green light to travel northwest to Zaporizhzhia or to Russia. But Ukrainian officials accused Russian forces of violating the cease-fire with more shelling.

“Russian forces are now shelling the humanitarian corridor from Zaporizhzhia to Mariupol,” Oleg Nikolenko, a spokesman for Ukraine’s foreign ministry, said on Twitter. “Pressure on Russia MUST step up to make it uphold its commitments.”

The setback frustrated the estimated 200,000 Mariupol residents – almost half the city’s population – who are desperate to flee dire conditions that have included accounts of doctors performing emergency procedures without painkillers or antibiotics in hospitals struggling to source basic drugs.

“It’s seven days without any utility, without water, heat,” Mariupol’s deputy mayor, Sergei Orlov, told the BBC. “People want to find something to eat, and it’s difficult.”

Orlov said the constant Russian shelling and rocket fire had destroyed schools, blood-donation stations and other civilian infrastructure, and made it impossible for people even to collect and count the dead.

Deputy Prime Minister Iryna Vereshchuk said that 30 buses had been dispatched from Zaporizhzhia to bring water, food staples and medicines to Mariupol. The buses will be used to ferry out residents who wish to leave, if conditions allow.

age other countries and leaders to follow.”

The White House had initially shrugged off calls to ban Russian oil, arguing that the impact on global markets would be destabilizing to the West. Administration officials had also said that deep economic sanctions were already hitting Moscow’s biggest banks and several oligarchs close to Putin, weakening the ruble and the nation’s economy broadly.

But Biden clearly warmed to the idea as support grew from Democrats and Republicans on Capitol Hill for a bipartisan bill to ban Russian energy, even as some Democrats worried that they would pay a political price in November’s midterm elections for public frustrations about high gas prices.

It is the first time the U.S. has gotten ahead of its European allies in sanctioning Russia. Europe relies far more heavily on Russian energy imports and has been more reluctant to join in a ban.

The U.S. imports around 700,000 barrels of oil a day from Russia, accounting for less than 10% of the nation’s energy supply.

Europe imports more than 4 million barrels a day of Russian fuel.

But it appeared Europe’s reluctance was waning amid reports that the European Union and the United Kingdom will begin to dial down imports of Russian energy.

Britain will phase out imports of Russian oil and oil products – though not natural gas – by the end of the year, Prime Minister Boris Johnson said.

The announcement came as Zelenskyy delivered an impassioned speech via video link to the British Parliament, where he received a boisterous standing ovation.

“Working with industry, we are confident that this can be achieved over the course of the year, providing enough time for companies to adjust and ensuring consumers are protected,” Johnson said in a statement.

Though less forwardleaning, the European Commission announced plans to slash EU dependence on Russian natural gas as by two-thirds this year and “end reliance” on Russian fossil fuels before 2030. Russia supplies roughly 40% of the 27-nation bloc’s gas.

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said a full ban is “premature,” although he has already taken the extraordinary step of halting certification of the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline between Russia and Germany’s Baltic Coast.

DRNEWS@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

SUISUN CITY — Solano County Transit announced Tuesday it would be taking over management of the SolanoExpress bus lines.

The first upcoming project is a mural in downtown Fairfield.

This will be followed by a community mural event, an event using vacant storefronts to establish a pop gallery for local artists, and another space to inform the public of future art projects.

The committee and city will continue to meet bi-monthly to generate new ideas and plan out details as Fairfield seeks to foster art.

Clock ticks as MLB, players keep talking The Washington Post NEW YORK — With a week of regular season games already canceled and more doomed without a deal, Major League Baseball’s negotiating team met with representatives for the players union multiple times Tuesday, chatting on the phone and via Zoom.

At least once, a few MLB officials wandered over to MLB Players Association headquarters to talk in person. MLB had

informed the union that a deal Tuesday could leave time to play a complete, 162-game season with players receiving their full salaries but that no deal would lead to more canceled games. Then again, MLB had established deadlines like that before.

But as of 10 p.m., the sides were still talking.

People familiar with the negotiations indicated no deal was done. But they did not rule out the possibility that one could get done overnight.

Maybe Tuesday night really was the last possible minute, the last day that would leave enough time for four weeks of spring training and a 162-game regular season, as MLB officials had indicated.

Or maybe it wasn’t really the last minute at all, just another carrot waved by the owners to push the players into more concessions. That the owners and the union couldn’t even agree on what qualified as a deadline was emblematic of

the animosity that has been both a driving force and a constant presence over a three-month lockout that has consumed the first three weeks of spring training.

Either way, the daytime hours came and went with plenty of talking and no firm news of a deal - but no news of an unresolvable dispute, either.

The issues at stake were the same ones these sides have disagreed on for months, the ones on which they’ve

exchanged numbers and traded proposals time and time again. The players want to set the competitive balance tax at a higher number than ever, one that accounts for rising revenue. The owners want a 14-team postseason to maximize television money. Everything from the minimum salary to how much money should be available to reward elite young players beyond that minimum was still on the table, as were an international draft,

the power to make rule changes and more.

But something was different Tuesday: Until late in the evening, little information about when and where and if the talks were happening had leaked. Until Tuesday night, when the Athletic reported details of an MLB proposal that included the highest CBT thresholds the owners have offered yet, few details of the negotiations See Talking, Page B10

Quarterback Russell Wilson take the field for a game against the Green Bay Packers, Nov. 14, 2021 at Lambeau

Field. Russell was traded to the Denver Broncos for a package of players and draft picks, Wednesday.

49ers celebrate as Wilson exits NFC West, Rodgers stays put Tribune Content Agency The 49ers’ longtime tormentor, Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, was traded out of the NFC West.

And the QB they’ve tormented in the playoffs, Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, officially decided to remain in Green Bay. Both moves brought more clarity to the NFL’s muddled offseason QB landscape and presumably helped cleared the way for a Jimmy Garoppolo trade.

Yes, Tuesday was a good day for the 49ers.

In a morning of seismic QB news, the Seahawks traded Wilson, 33, to the Broncos for a package that included five draft picks, including two first-round selections, and three players.

Meanwhile, about two hours before news of that blockbuster broke, Rodgers, 38,

erased questions about his future by agreeing to play with the Packers for an 18th season in 2022.

Wilson, who had spent his entire 10-season career in Seattle, has spent that decade consistently bedeviling the 49ers: He has a 17-4 record against his division rivals, including a win in the NFC Championship Game in January 2013, while throwing 37 touchdowns and 10 interceptions.

In contrast, the Packers’ 13-10 loss to the 49ers in the divisional playoffs in January placed Rodgers in an unfortunate and exclusive club: With an 0-4 postseason record against the 49ers, he became the only QB in NFL history to lose four playoff starts to a single opponent.

Still, given Rodgers’ brilliance, it’s safe to say the 49ers wouldn’t have shed a tear if the twotime defending NFL MVP had retired or, like

Wilson, been shipped out of the NFC. However, with Rodgers no longer available, the scales tipped more in the 49ers’ favor when it comes to QB supply and demand this offseason. Garoppolo, 30, appears to be the most attractive veteran option on the market during an offseason in which the QB draft class is underwhelming.

The Broncos addressed their QB need by acquiring Wilson, but teams such as Washington – which reportedly made a competitive offer for Wilson – Pittsburgh and Carolina don’t appear to have a No. 1 QB on their roster. The Texans want to trade Pro Bowl QB Deshaun Watson, but no deal can be made with Watson facing sexualmisconduct allegations and possible league discipline.

Teams interested in Garoppolo could have more clarity on his

health and timeline for his potential return to the field after he underwent shoulder surgery Tuesday, as first reported

by NFL Network. Garoppolo, whose throwing shoulder was injured in a wild-card at Dallas on Jan. 16, is expected to be able to resume throwing around late July.

The Seahawks’ trade means they also have a QB hole on their roster. They received Broncos QB Drew Lock, 25, in Tuesday’s deal, but Lock’s struggles prompted Denver to pursue Wilson.

The situation at least prompts the question of whether Seattle would have interest in Garoppolo and, if so, whether the 49ers would entertain trading him to an NFC West rival.

The Seahawks, for example, wanted to trade Wilson outside the conference, which was a nod See West, Page B10

Warriors’ James Wiseman to play for Santa Cruz in first game in 11 months Tribune Content Agency DENVER — Second-year center James Wiseman will play in a pair of Santa Cruz Warriors games as he has been cleared to progress to the next stage of his rehabilitation, Golden State announced on Tuesday.

Wiseman will take the court Thursday at Stockton, 11 months to the day since his last game, and Sunday against the G League

Ignite at Chase Center.

This marks the first time Golden State has had a big-name player compete in G League competition on a rehab assignment.Wiseman underwent surgery to repair a right meniscal tear on April 15, 2021 and has missed the Warriors’ first 65 games this season. He had earlier stints in Santa Cruz on Nov. 28 and Dec. 11, but in mid-December underwent an additional arthroscopic procedure to

relieve swelling.

In late February, Santa Cruz traveled to Chase Center where they practice and scrimmaged with Wiseman. The 20-year-old had been traveling with the Warriors during their recent road trip.

In the 39 games before the knee injury ended his rookie season, Wiseman averaged 11.5 points and 5.8 rebounds in 21.4 minutes per game.

CALMATTERS COMMENTARY

Newsom’s mental health plan needs full airing

B

eginning in the 19th century and continuing well into the 20th, California maintained an extensive network of state mental hospitals to which people deemed to be dangers to themselves or others were committed, often for decades.

In the mid-20th century, however, the concept of involuntary commitments came under fire with critics saying the hospitals were more like prisons than treatment centers, with their patients denied basic civil rights.

The upshot was legislation, signed by Ronald Reagan shortly after he became governor in 1967, with a declared goal to “end the inappropriate, indefinite and involuntary commitment of persons with mental health disorders.”

The Lanterman-Petris-Short Act, named for Republican Assemblyman Frank Lanterman and Democratic Sens.

Nick Petris and Alan Short, set Dan Walters forth an elaborate process that would have to be followed for involuntary commitments, limiting them to the profoundly disabled.

Companion legislation was aimed at replacing the hospitals with community-based mental health programs. The package drew support from those who wanted to reduce the hefty costs of the hospitals, such as Reagan, and advocates for the rights of the mentally ill.

It never worked out as planned because successor governors and legislators didn’t provide enough financial support for local mental health services and the process for commitment essentially allowed the mentally ill to refuse treatment.

One by one, the state hospitals were closed, some converted to other uses, such as California State University Channel Islands in Camarillo, and others razed.

In some measure – we’ll never know how much – what followed the Lanterman-PetrisShort Act contributed to California’s explosion of homelessness, because many of those living on the streets of the state’s cities are severely mentally ill.

The debate over the situation has raged for years, pitting those who believe that forcing the mentally ill into treatment is a regrettable necessity against those who contend involuntary commitments violate civil rights.

Gov. Gavin Newsom is now proposing a Solomon-like approach called Community Assistance, Recovery and Empowerment (CARE) Court, which would make it easier to compel the mentally ill to get treatment, via a special judicial proceeding, but with a one-year limit that could be extended only by further proceedings.

The CARE Court would tailor an individualized plan for each person found to be in need of intervention, including not only psychological treatment but other services such as housing, managed by a team of medical and nonmedical personnel. All 58 counties would have to participate.

“This is a completely new strategy,” Newsom said as he introduced the new plan last week.

“And I hope that creates a space for a different conversation than we’ve had in the past.”

Newsom should get credit for trying to solve a long-running and very knotty issue, but so far his proposal is just an outline that needs to be fully fleshed out and civil rights advocates remain skeptical.

Kevin Baker, director of governmental relations for ACLU California Action, told CalMatters, “The problem of homelessness is caused by the cost of housing, and we won’t solve homelessness, mental health or substance abuse problems in our communities by locking people up and drugging them against their will.

New funding for housing and services would be good, if we also keep in mind that people don’t lose their civil liberties just because the government wants to help them, no matter how sincerely.”

This proposal affects people’s lives, not just those of the mentally ill, but their long suffering families, and should be fully vetted before enactment, not just stuffed into a budget trailer bill in the dead of night.

Two days after Melinda's going away party, Melinda called Cathi. I heard Cathi whimper in the bedroom and when she came out holding her phone to her ear, her face was contorted in anguish.

“Julie died.”

When Cathi asked how she’d died, the answer was inevitable. Covid-19.

Rob and Julie both contracted Covid and while Rob recovered, Julie lingered in a coma and died.

They’d just started this new adventure and were coming back to work with us in May. How could she be gone? Rob and Julie lived a healthy lifestyle. They ate nutritious, organic food and walked or bicycled for miles daily.

But they were unvaccinated. We’d had a couple of conversations on the subject. They weren’t anti-vax for political reasons or crazy conspiracy theories. They were just convinced their healthy lifestyle would protect them from the novel coronavirus.

Rob has since been vaccinated.

Julie wasn’t the first person we’d lost to Covid-19 but she was the closest. The war in Ukraine has knocked the pandemic out of the news. But as we get back to normal, finally, there are these brutal reminders that though we’re done with Covid, it’s not done with us.

I just wish I could have my friend back. Peace.

One morning, when Meilin Lee woke from troubled dreams, she found herself transformed in her bed into a horrible vermin.

Thankfully, Meilin (Rosalie Chiang) doesn’t turn into an insect like Gregor Samsa, the protagonist of Franz Kafka’s “The Metamorphosis,” but rather, takes the form of an oversized fluffy red panda. Meilin is as shocked and horrified as Samsa himself, but thankfully, “Turning Red” is so fun and exuberant that one couldn’t possibly refer to it as “Kafkaesque.”

The utterly charming and insightful “Turning Red,” directed by Domee Shi, written by Shi and Julia Cho is a story that is highly, and unapologetically specific, but universal in its themes.

Mei is a 13-year-old Chinese Canadian girl trying to navigate the turbulent waters of eighth grade in the early 2000s. At school, she’s buoyed by her trio of best friends, and their shared passion for the boy band 4*Town, but at home, working at her family’s temple, trying to please her discerning mother Ming (Sanda Oh), Mei is not the sassy, self-possessed girl whose friends love her unconditionally.

“Turning Red” is a tale about learning to be yourself, and all the growing pains that go along with it, a process that’s hard enough without the unique trait passed down to all the women in Mei’s family.

Meilin’s blessing (and curse) is a mystical gift from her warrior woman ancestor Sun Yi, who channeled the spirit of the red panda spirit to protect her family and village. Suddenly granted this “gift,” Meilin finds that whenever her emotions get out of control (a frequent occurrence for this hyped-up and hormonal tween), she transforms into the red panda. This metamorphosis is

MOVIE

Review “Turning Red” Rated PG 100 minutes

HHHH (OUT OF FOUR) triggered by that all-powerful force known as matriarchal mortification, or in layman’s terms, an embarrassing mom. The title “Turning Red,” is a clever doubleentendre for the female coming-of-age metaphor at the center of the film, as well as a nod to Chinese culture.

As her family races to remedy the panda problem with an ancient ritual, the situation threatens Mei’s chance to see 4*Town in concert, and she’s forced to reckon with the way she’s compartmentalized herself between school and home.

This fantastical, fantastic film is stylistically inspired by anime and ‘90s teen sitcoms, and draws from a wealth of references including Hayao Miyazaki, monster movies, “Degrassi” and nostalgic pop cultural ephemera.

It is energetic to the point of being hyperactive, dense with jokes and character moments, and like most recent Disney/Pixar films, bolstered with (actually useful) therapy-sanctioned lessons about psychology, families and self-esteem that just might hit home for the adults in the room. This is a film about a teenage girl turning into a panda, but it’s truly a film about listening to your inner child, parenting your parents and healing ancestral trauma. All that in only 100 minutes.

There’s something so joyful about the way Mei embraces the panda that she is, expressing her emotions freely, and the way that expression brings her closer and closer to who she is meant to be. It’s a whirlwind roller-coaster of a ride to get there, and an absolute joy to watch.

Steven Spielberg isn’t the only director grumbling about the academy’s Oscars show changes

Crossword

Los Angeles Times LOS ANGELES — The film academy’s decision to alter the Oscars broadcast this year in a bid to reverse last year’s historically low ratings is facing resistance from some of Hollywood’s heaviest hitters.

Directors Steven Spielberg and Jane Campion are among those expressing their dismay in recent days over the decision to move eight categories out of the broadcast window and into the hour before the telecast begins.

“We must prioritize the television audience to increase viewer engagement and keep the show vital, kinetic, and relevant,” academy president David Rubin wrote last month in a letter to the group’s roughly 10,000 members. “This has been an important focus of discussion for quite some time.”

One member of the academy’s 54-person board of governors scoffed at the idea that those attending in person would be classy enough to sit politely through an untelevised hour before the broadcast.

Eight awards will be handed out starting at 4 p.m. Pacific time, and the results, according to Rubin, will be “folded seamlessly into the live show” that begins at 5 p.m.

“I think most people will be at the bar,” the unidentified governor told the Hollywood Reporter last week. “We are going to need a lot more seatfillers. So that’s going to be a bummer for the nominees whose awards are being presented then.”

While Rubin said that all nominees and winners will be acknowledged during the broadcast, some of the pomp and circumstance might be muted for nominees in the affected categories: film editing, makeup and hairstyling, original score, production design, sound, documentary short subject, animated short and live-action short.

After a number of academy members spoke up immediately when the changes were announced, here is what a handful of Hollywood’s top filmmakers are saying about changes to this year’s ceremony.

Steven Spielberg The “West Side Story” directing and best picture nominee disagrees with the decision to separate some disciplines from the main part of the ceremony, given that filmmaking is, as he told Deadline on Sunday, “the most collaborative medium in the world.”

“I feel that at the Academy Awards there is no above-theline, there is no below-the-line.

All of us are on the same line

Director Steven Spielberg speaks onstage during the 92nd Annual Academy Awards at Dolby Theatre, in Hollywood, Feb. 9, 2020. bringing the best of us to tell the best stories we possibly can,” Spielberg said. “And that means for me we should all have a seat at the supper table together live at 5.”

He didn’t have high hopes that a reversal would come before this year’s Academy Awards were underway.

“The same thing came close to happening three years ago and at the eleventh hour a decision was made that reversed it and four categories that were in the commercial breaks were reinstated on the live show,” Spielberg said. “I hope it’s reversed, but I’m not anticipating a reversal and I am not optimistic about it.”

Denis Villeneuve The “Dune” director thought the Oscars were just fine before announcing this year’s changes.

Now the show is going through an identity crisis, he told Deadline over the weekend, and people are making some bad choices.

“Honestly, I think that the academy’s throwing the baby out with the bathwater,” Villeneuve said. “I think it’s a mistake. And I understand that they’re under tremendous pressure, but I think it isn’t the right decision.”

He noted that the actors and the directors get a lot of media attention while the rest of the people on a film do not. “All the people that are working in the shadows, they need to be seen and to be recognized, and these award shows are made for them,” he said.

Jane Campion The director of “The Power of the Dog,” whose nomination for directing made Oscars history, took issue with one of the categories that will be relegated to the preshow: production design.

“I would have definitely included design in the main

body of the awards because design is so vital,” she told Deadline. “It’s one of the most important relationships.”

Unfortunately, in doing so she might have unintentionally suggested that the other seven categories were less vital. Four of her film’s dozen nominations – film editing, score, sound and production design – will happen before the main broadcast.

Ava DuVernay The “Selma” and “A Wrinkle in Time” filmmaker took issue with one word that keeps popping up in the discussion: excluded. As in, the idea that the eight categories are going to be “excluded” from the awards – which they are not.

They will simply be awarded off-camera, before the broadcast begins. “[T]he word ‘excluded’ is a powerful one for many. It has a particular and heightened meaning to many,” DuVernay told the Hollywood Reporter last week. “I think it’s important to call things by their right name so as not to minimize the meaning of true exclusion in these spaces.”

Bridge

Will Packer OK, he’s not a big-name director, but Packer is one person who thinks the changes are a good idea – and he is producing this year’s Oscars broadcast.

“It’s an oversaturated content environment,” he told Variety last Friday, referring to awards shows in general. “People have choices to watch anything and everything they want.

“I’m going to do the best I can to treat this show with the reverence, respect and proper positioning it deserves,” he continued, “but I’m also going to try to make a very entertaining show.”

At the bridge table, though, we must not overlook the old – our

Sudoku

by Phillip Alder experience of what works and what doesn’t – but even that doesn’t always help. Look at the East hand in the diagram. Only your side is vulnerable.

South opens one heart, your partner overcalls one spade, and North jumps to four hearts. Do you plunge into the deep sea by bidding four spades, or do you stay right where you are?

There is no definite answer.

Sometimes pass will be best; at other times, bidding will win.

My instinct is to bid four spades, getting to the 10-trick level with a 10-card fit. But if we are doubled and go down two, that will be more costly than four hearts made. Also, maybe both games are going down.

Here, against four hearts, West will probably start with two high diamonds and the diamond three, giving East a ruff and sending a suit-preference signal for spades. East, though, cannot be sure that South isn’t hiding the two.

However, given West’s overcall, East is likely to get it right, and another diamond ruff will take the contract down two.

Note that four spades goes down one, West losing one heart and three clubs.

At Bridge Base Online, 11 pairs made four hearts, two went down, two failed in four spades and one in five spades.

A HEARING on the petition will be held in this court as follows: 04/05/22 at 9:00AM in Dept. 22 located at Old Solano Courthouse, 580 Texas Street, Fairfield, CA 94533 IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.

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

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

YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250.

T.S. No. 21-0046-11 Notice Of Trustee's Sale A.P.N. 0174-340-380 You Are In Default Under A Deed Of Trust Dated 9/21/2015. Unless You Take Action To Protect Your Property, It May Be Sold At A Public Sale. If You Need An Explanation Of The Nature Of The Proceeding Against You, You Should Contact A Lawyer. A public auction sale to the highest bidder for cash, cashier's check drawn on a state or national bank, check drawn by a state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, or savings association, or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state will be held by the duly appointed trustee as shown below, of all right, title, and interest conveyed to and now held by the trustee in the hereinafter described property under and pursuant to a Deed of Trust described below. The sale will be made, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by the Deed of Trust, with interest and late charges thereon, as provided in the note(s), advances, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, interest thereon, fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee for the total amount (at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale) reasonably estimated to be set forth below. The amount may be greater on the day of sale. Trustor: Dakhota Conrad Whitehead, An Unmarried Woman. Duly Appointed Trustee: The Wolf Firm, A Law Corporation Recorded 9/30/2015 as Instrument No. 201500088968 of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of Solano County, California Street Address or other common designation of real property: 97 Manchester Drive Fairfield, CA 94533 A.P.N.: 0174- 340-380 Date of Sale: 4/6/2022 at 9:30 AM Place of Sale: Santa Clara Street entrance to City Hall 555 Santa Clara St., Vallejo, CA Amount of unpaid balance and other charges: $174,490.06, estimated The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address or other common designation, if any, shown above. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. 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 Website www.mkconsultantsinc.com, using the file number assigned to this case 21-0046-11. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. Notice To Tenant: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (877) 440-4460, or visit this internet website www.mkconsultantsinc.com, using the file number assigned to this case 21-0046-11 to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase. The Notice to Tenant pertains to sales occurring after January 1, 2021.

had leaked – a far cry from the numbers that seemed to pour out of the negotiating rooms during a long night of talks last week.

The shift was noteworthy because leaked details of offers and the resulting commentary on social media have frustrated those in the room - particularly some on MLB’s side – who felt outside pressure was changing inside outcomes. And when the sides marched toward a deadline like this a week ago in Jupiter, Fla., spokesmen for both sides issued statements by the middle of the day, prematurely blaming the other side for failing to reach a deal by an evening deadline that had not yet arrived. For much of Tuesday, both sides made concerted efforts to keep the details of the negotiations in-house – an indication, perhaps, that progress was being made that neither side wanted to

But even some progress wouldn’t necessarily be enough; on Sunday, an MLB spokesman described the state of the negotiations as “deadlocked.” People familiar with MLB’s thinking clarified that the statement did not mean to suggest the sides had reached the kind of impasse that would have legal implications for the future of the talks. But MLB did suggest that the union’s latest proposal had gone backward from its previ-

From Page B1 to ability. The 49ers made it clear they weren’t sold on Garoppolo last year when they traded up to select his successor, Trey Lance, with the third overall pick. A year later, they would make another statement if they traded Garoppolo to a division foe with a QB need.

At this point, it’s merely conjecture regarding teams that are infrequent trade partners: They haven’t made a deal involving a player since the 49ers traded defensive lineman Kentwan Balmer to the Seahawks for a sixth-round pick in 2010.

ous positions, a consistent frustration as the union has tried to avoid making concessions in one area without making up ground in another.

MLB has taken a similar tact, tying compromise in some areas of the deal to its preferred positions on others, according to people familiar with the negotiations.

The owners have agreed to make moves in some areas if the union makes moves in others, with issues intertwined rather than negotiated one by one. And even a major monetary concession from the owners could look less appealing if tied to a structural change the players believed would cost them over time.

Exactly where those numbers and trade-offs stood as of Tuesday evening was unclear, and people familiar with the talks made sure to dampen optimism. After all, they had talked late into the night before and emerged without a deal. In these negotiations, progress is as slow as it is fragile.
