Face coverings required in Yolo County

By Anne Ternus-Bellamy McNaughton Media As of Monday, Yolo County residents must wear face coverings in public in order to help limit the spread of the novel coronavirus.

Face masks must cover the nose and mouth and may be made from a variety of cloth, fabric or other soft or permeable materials.

Scarves, bandannas and homemade coverings are suitable.

The face coverings are required while engaging in essential activities; visiting or working at essential businesses; seeking healthcare; and using public transportation.

“The success of this order depends upon voluntary compliance by individuals and community acceptance of its requirements,” the health order issued

by Dr. Ron Chapman states.

“Individual violators are unlikely to be cited, with enforcement directed instead at non-complying essential businesses and other enterprises. Individuals that choose not to wear face coverings when required by this order may encounter difficulties such as being refused access to public transit and essential businesses.”

Requiring people to cover their faces in public is based on evidence that people infected with the virus may be asymptomatic but still contagious. The masks are meant to prevent the wearer from spreading the virus.

The order does not not eliminate the need for sheltering in place, physical distancing of at least six feet away from others when in public, or frequent hand washing.

County Road 89 drive-by shooting victim dies Yolo County Sheriff seeking information from the community

By Lauren Keene McNaughton Media The victim of Friday’s driveby shooting incident near Winters has died, Yolo County sheriff’s officials said Monday.

“It’s now a homicide,” Yolo County Sheriff’s Lt. Ray Jimenez said of the man’s death, which occurred Sunday. The victim’s identity has not been released pending a positive identification by the Yolo County Coroner’s Office.

Jimenez said detectives are still seeking a suspect in the shooting, which occurred

Roadmap to Recovery: Steps to re-open Yolo County

By Anne Ternus-Bellamy McNaughton Media On Friday, Yolo County Health Officer Dr. Ron Chapman amended the county’s shelter-in-place order to allow a few outdoor recreational activities, namely, golfing, hunting, boating and fishing.

On Tuesday, the Board of Supervisors will discuss a draft “Roadmap to Recovery” Chapman and his staff created that provides guidance on what other activities are considered low risk for spread of the novel coronavirus and may be allowed to resume in the coming months.

The key will be first allowing activities considered at lowest risk for spreading the

virus, monitoring the impact and adjusting as needed, officials said.

Looking down the line — as soon as May — low-risk activities likely to resume include some non-essential retail and construction activities (though very limited at first), as well as limited child care and even drive-in religious services.

Other low-risk businesses and services that may follow include house cleaning, pet grooming, realtor showings and some non-contact outdoor sports.

Not likely happening any time soon given their high risk: bars, nightclubs and gyms re-opening or large stadium events taking place.

Winters rainfall season began 7/1/19.

Weather readings are taken at 9 a.m.

Somewhere in between in the medium-risk category: nail salons, public pools, bowling alleys and more.

The draft roadmap that lays all of that out comes with a key caveat: should increased activity lead to increased cases of COVID-19, hospitalizations or deaths, or an increased burden on the healthcare system, “these activities will immediately cease or reverse.”

Chapman said last week that key metrics should be met in order to safely re-open Yolo County, including the most challenging one thus far — the ability to rapidly test anyone with COVID-19 symptoms as well as their close contacts and essential service providers.

As has been the case across the country, a lack of testing has hindered efforts to slow the spread of the novel coronavirus.

Chapman said last week that the shelterin-place order is working, and the curve flattening, but it’s too soon to celebrate — or to end that shelter-inplace order. It is, however, “time to begin a discussion about how we slowly begin to crawl out of this situ-

at about 1:30 p.m. Friday on County Road 89 north of Winters. The shots were fired by someone in a small, dark-colored sedan last seen heading northbound on Road 89.

The driver who accompanied the injured passenger transported the victim to Sutter Davis Hospital. The victim was later transferred to an area trauma center for further treatment where he later succumbed to injuries.

“It is early in the investigation and there are no further details at this time,” Jimenez said in a news release. Anyone

with information is asked to contact sheriff’s dispatchers at 530-666-8282 or leave an anonymous tip at 530-668-5248.

County Road 89 was closed off from County Road 31 down to Winters city limits at Niemann Street during the afternoon.

Winters Police Sgt. Jose Hermosillo and Officer Victor Barajas were on scene to assist Yolo County Sheriff deputies, said Winters Police Department Chief John P. Miller.

Cowan takes the gavel as new Mayor

By Rodney Orosco

Projects & Funding

Staff Writer At the April 21 meeting, council members Jesse Loren and Bill Biasi, both of whom were re-elected in the March 3 election, had to be satisfied with hearty virtual high fives and a promise of cake in the future.

All council members, and the city manager, attended the meeting via a video link.

While Loren resumes her spot on the council, Biasi will hand the Mayor’s gavel to Wade Cowan. Biasi received the most votes in the election, and will become the Mayor pro tempore.

Council members unanimously voted to approve amending city zoning ordinances regarding Accessory Dwelling Units (ADU, aka granny flats). The new amendment will bring city rules regarding ADUs in line with new state rules.

A few highlights of the new rules include: No impact fees shall be imposed on any ADU that is less than seven hundred fifty feet in size. And, no off-street parking shall be required for an ADU.

New Planing Commission Members

Nancy Northrup and Chris Rose will join the planning commission, replac-

Wade Cowen ing Lisa Baker and Pat Riley.

The city received applications from Richard Casavecchia, George EIrod, Jaime Guzman, Northrup, Rose, Carl Treseder, and Kristin Trott.

Council member Loren and then Mayor pro tem Cowan, as the Interview and Selection Committee, recommended Northrup and Rose to serve in the place of the two retiring commission members. The Council approved the candidate recommendations and they will begin their terms at the upcoming May meeting.

In his development planning status update, City Manger John W. Donlevy, Jr. reported that the 54unit Walnut 10 development is the only active project.

The Walnut 10 project is scheduled to go before the planning commission at their May meeting.

The Council unanimously voted to adopt a list of road projects to be funded by state gas tax funds, SB 1.

More than $140,000 will fund eight street repair projects.

The Council appointed council member Loren to represent Winters on the Yolo County Covid-Relief fund Leadership Advisory Board.

The money will go to help non profit healthcare providers and those providing social safety net assistance.

The Country Board of Supervisors allocated $250,000 to the fund, with participating cites expected to donate. Winters is still evaluating how much they will donate to the fund.

Business future

Donlevy hosted a special business town hall meeting on April 22.

As policies come out regarding re-opening the county, Winters and its businesses will need to adapt and prepare for the new realities of doing business.

The City will move more picnic tables into Rotary Park, adding more social distancing signs around the city and keeping in touch with businesses.

Should you be wearing a face mask in public?

The CDC recommends wearing cloth face coverings in public settings where other social distancing measures are difficult such as grocery stores and pharmacies. It is very important to maintain 6-feet of social distancing to slow the spread of the virus. Simple cloth face coverings using household items from common materials can be used. Surgical masks or N-95 respirators are not recommended as these are critical supplies that must be reserved for healthcare workers and other medical first responders.

Why is social distancing so important?

Keeping distance between others is useful to prevent exposure to this virus.

The virus can spread from an infected person who shows no symptoms and coughs, sneezes, or talks. Droplets released from their mouth or nose land on mouths or noses of others nearby and cause a healthy person to become infected.

Yolo DA warns of real estate scams triggered by pandemic Yolo District Attorney Special to the Express Some Yolo County residents are feeling the burden of financial strain as a result of the COVID-19 shelter-in-place ordinance that was established in March, and many have found themselves out of work as a result.

During these uncertain times, homeowners should be careful about a potential increase in loan modification and foreclosure rescue scams, where scammers are attempting to take advantage of people who may be financially struggling amid the coronavirus pandemic.

The California Department of Real Estate (DRE) has issued a consumer alert to explain loan modification and loan forebearances.

It provides information about those who are authorized to provide services, and more importantly, those who are not. It also provides tips about how to spot a potential scam.

There are many red flags that consumers should be on the lookout for, including but not limited to: unlicensed people or companies, a demand for payment upfront, and instructions to

transfer lease/rent titles to a third party or granting a “power of attorney” to the loan modifier. Once money or title is transferred, the scammer may vanish or sell the home without the owner’s knowledge.

To prevent this from happening, there are steps that can be taken to ensure a safe and educated choice is made: • Do it yourself: Contact your lender directly and request a loan modification or forbearance that suits your financial situation. Take detailed notes about who you’ve spoken with, the details of the call, and what you need to do.

• Consult a free legitimate counselor: If you are unable to negotiate a loan modification yourself or would prefer assistance, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) offers free housing counseling through HUD approved non-profit agencies in California. Counselors can be found on HUD’s website: www.hud. gov.

• Work with a legitimate, licensed and qualified person or company: If you are unable to find a

ROAD Continued from Page 1 ation.�

There is enough flexibility within Chapman’s health order, the draft roadmap notes, to release some services and businesses from the shelter in place and to order them back in if necessary.

Guiding the roadmap are three principles: Activities may only resume if they are allowed by the state’s shelter-in-place order; they must be easily modified or require no modification to incorporate social distancing; and they must minimize the shared use of property or equipment.

On Friday, the county took the first step by allowing golf courses and boat ramps to reopen, as well as permitting fishing, hunting, gun clubs and ar-

MASK Continued from Page 1 Examples of when face coverings should be worn include: • When inside or in line to enter any essential business, including grocery stores, convenience stores, supermarkets, laundromats and restaurants; • While at any location or facility engaging in minimum basic operations or while seeking or receiving essential government functions; • While engaged in essential infrastructure work; • While at any facility providing healthcare operations — including hospitals,

chery.

Next month, in the roadmap’s “Phase II,� additional activities may be allowed. “It is anticipated that this restriction loosening shall be in place for two incubation periods of the virus (or 28 days) for monitoring of disease transmission and other important metrics,� the draft states. “After the initial phase has been evaluated by the public health officer, additional information on reduction in restrictions shall be released.�

However, people in high-risk populations, including those over age 65, with compromised immune systems and chronic conditions will likely be subject to more cautious restrictions.

For everyone else, these are the re-opening phases proposed in the draft roadmap:

clinics, COVID-19 testing locations, dentists, pharmacies, blood banks and blood drives, other healthcare facilities, mental health providers, or facilities providing veterinary care and similar healthcare services for animals — unless directed otherwise by an employee or worker at the healthcare operation; and • When waiting for or riding on public transportation (including any bus or shuttle) or paratransit or while in a taxi, private car service or ride-sharing vehicle.

Additionally, drivers and operators must wear a face covering while driving or operating regardless of whether a member of the public is in the vehicle, due to the need to reduce the spread of respiratory droplets in the vehicle at all times.

Meanwhile, all essential businesses, as well as entities and organizations with workers engaged in essential infrastructure work must: Require their employees, contractors, owners and volun-

Due to their low-risk categorization, the following outdoor recreation activities are allowed: Golf courses, hunting clubs/archery, boat ramps and fishing All still require social distancing measures unless conducted with another member of the same household and county staff and law enforcement will be monitoring over the next two weeks to ensure adherence to the public health order.

* Allowing non-essential retail to provide curbside pick-up and mail order * Allowing child

As far as other activities and when they’ll be allowed, it all comes down to risk assessment, and the draft roadmap lays out those activities according to that assessment. “These activities are illustrative only, and as the county’s knowledge evolves and a process is informed by community engagement, board feedback, state guidance, and novel data, items on this list shall be added, removed or altered,� the draft roadmap states.

teers to wear a face covering at the workplace and when performing work off-site any time the employee, contractor, owner, or volunteer is interacting in person with any member of the public; working in any space visited by members of the public, such as reception areas, grocery store or pharmacy aisles, service counters, public restrooms, cashier and checkout areas and waiting rooms, regardless of whether anyone from the public is present at the time; working in any space where food is prepared or packaged for sale or distribution to others; working in or walking through common areas such as hallways, stairways, elevators, and parking facilities; or in any room or enclosed area when other people (except for members of the person’s own household or residence) are present.

Essential businesses must also take reasonable measures, such as posting signs, to remind their customers and the public of the requirement that they wear a face

covering while inside or waiting in line to enter the business.

They must also take all reasonable steps to prohibit any member of the public who is not wearing a face covering from entering and must not serve that person if those efforts are unsuccessful.

The order does not require any child under age 13 to wear a face covering, but encourages that all children over the age of two do so if they are likely to encounter other people at closer than a six-foot range.

Children younger than two years of age must not wear a face covering because of the risk of suffocation.

Additionally, wearing a face covering is not required while engaging in outdoor recreation. But anyone engaged in such activity must comply with social distancing requirements. Everyone should have a face covering with them if needed.

Face coverings are not required while driving alone or exclusively with other members of the same household in a vehicle.

Phase II (likely in May)

La información de salud es privada Por Rodney Orosco Traducido por Carol Alfonso El número actual de casos del coronavirus (COVID-19) en el Condado Yolo es de 93, con tres muertes, según se informa en el sitio web del Tablero de Control (Dashboard) del Condado Yolo.

Y, si bien el sitio web ofrece un desglose de casos por ciudad, esa es la mayor cantidad de información que el público recibirá sobre COVID-19 en su vecindario.

Mientras que el personal de Servicios Humanos y de Salud del condado le preguntará a aquellos que dieron positivo con COVID-19 con quienes mantuvieron contacto, el personal no le notificará a un contacto casual de un resultado positivo a la prueba en el área inmediata, dijo Jenny Tan, Oficial de Información Pública del Condado Yolo.

“Por lo general, los vecinos y los que están fuera de la comunidad no serán notificados”, dijo Tan. Mantener en privado el historial médico de una persona, incluso durante una pandemia, es la ley.

Como parte de la Ley de Responsabilidad y Portabilidad del Seguro de Salud del 1996 (Ley HIPAA), el historial médico de las personas y su condición

actual es privado y no se puede compartir sin permiso.

Por lo tanto, un proveedor de atención médica, un médico, una compañía de seguros o el departamento de salud del condado no pueden compartir información específica sobre la salud de una persona, incluso durante una pandemia.

Lo que se puede dar son generalidades, según Tan. Por ejemplo, una persona con un resultado positivo sería entrevistada por los funcionarios de la salud del condado e incluso el empleador de esa persona no obtendría detalles sobre quién era, solo que había exposición en una instalación o ubicación, dijo Tan. No saber si un vecino, amigo o compañero de trabajo ha dado positivo puede ser frustrante, y hay una solución simple: actuar como si estuviera allí.

“Todos deberíamos asumir que COVID-19 está en cada comunidad y que las personas deberían quedarse en casa tanto como sea posible”, dijo Tan. “Mientras más personas interactúen, más se propagará el virus. Si los residentes están preocupados por quién tiene COVID-19, entonces deberían estar siguiendo la orden de refugio y quedarse en casa.”

Las cubiertas faciales deben cubrir tanto la boca como la nariz, ajustadas perfectamente a ambos lados de la cara.

Funcionarios de la salud del Condado Yolo brindan orientación sobre las cubiertas faciales Por Anne Ternus-Bellamy Traducido por Carol Alfonso La semana pasada, Los Centros para el Control y la Prevención de Enfermedades (CDC) recomendaron que los estadounidenses se cubran la cara mientras están en público.–– Los CDC informaron que las cubiertas de tela simple, que incluyen máscaras de telas caseras, pañuelos y bufandas, pueden retrasar la propagación del nuevo coronavirus al evitar que los portadores asintomáticos propaguen el virus a otras personas.

Algunas jurisdicciones, como el Condado Los Angeles y, desde el pasado Lunes, en el Condado Sonoma, ahora han hecho obligatorio el uso de cubiertas faciales mientras se encuentran en las tiendas de comestibles y otros negocios esenciales. Del mismo modo, algunas empresas requieren que los clientes usen una cubierta facial para ingresar a sus tiendas.

‘Nugget Markets’, por ejemplo, comenzó a requerirle a los clientes que se cubran el rostro en sus tiendas desde el pasado Lunes. Los clientes sin coberturas faciales estaban siendo rechazados antes de que pudieran ingresar

Esta institución es un proveedor de igualdad de oportunidades

a la tienda del East Covell Boulevard esa mañana. Los empleados también llevaban máscaras faciales.

Los funcionarios de la salud del Condado Yolo brindaron su propia orientación sobre las cubiertas faciales la semana pasada, con un recordatorio de que no son un reemplazo para quedarse en casa o distanciarse socialmente.

“Esas son las prioridades para evitar la propagación de COVID-19”, dijo el Dr. Ron Chapman, Oficial de Salud Pública del Condado Yolo.

Además, Chapman hizo hincapié en que las máscaras quirúrgicas y respiratorias N-95 siguen siendo escasas y deben reservarse para el uso de los trabajadores de la salud y los primeros en responder.

Para todos los demás, el objetivo de usar las cubiertas faciales es evitar que los usuarios, que pueden tener el virus pero sin tener los síntomas, propaguen la infección sin saberlo.

“Esas cubiertas faciales no protegerían a las personas de contraer una infección”, dijo Chapman. “Si estás cerca de alguien que está tosiendo, estornudando e infectado, usar un pañuelo no te protegerá.”

Dicho esto, el condado, así como los CDC, han brindado la siguiente orientación sobre el uso de las cu-

biertas faciales: • Ya sean cubiertas de tela, pañuelos o bufandas hechas en casa, las cubiertas faciales deben cubrir tanto la boca como la nariz, bien ajustandos en ambos lados de la cara.

• Deben asegurarse con lazos o ganchos para las orejas, incluyendo varias capas de tela y permitir la respiración sin restricciones.

• Deben poder lavarse y secarse a máquina sin daños o cambiar de forma.

• No deben colocarse en niños menores de dos años ni en personas que tengan problemas para respirar o que no puedan quitarse la cubierta sin ayuda.

• Los niños de 3 a 8 años solo deben usar cubiertas de tela para la cara cuando haya un adulto presente para garantizar que se usen de manera segura.

• Al quitarse las cubiertas faciales, tenga cuidado de no tocarse los ojos, la nariz o la boca y lávese las manos inmediatamente después de quitársela.

Los CDC tienen instrucciones para las cubiertas faciales con y sin costura en https:// www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prevent-getting-sick/diycloth-face-coverings. html Mientras tanto, durante la reunión de la Junta de Supervisores el pasado Mar-

tes, el Supervisor Don Saylor de Davis le preguntó a Chapman si el Condado Yolo debería hacer obligatorio el uso de las cubiertas para la cara.

“Todos entendemos que las cubiertas faciales no protegerán al usuario de las infecciones”, dijo Saylor, “pero si más personas los usan, ¿no habría una diferencia para la comunidad ... porcentaje de infección?”

“No hay evidencia de que ese sea el caso”, respondió Chapman. “Es por eso que la gran mayoría de los condados no tienen tal orden en su lugar. Porque debe sopesar la falta de evidencia de algún beneficio con el potencial inconveniente, que ya he visto, de que (es) las personas que usan máscaras quirúrgicas y respiradores N-95 en público, que necesitamos reservar desesperadamente para nuestros trabajadores de la salud.”

Chapman también reiteró su preocupación de que la gente vea las cubiertas faciales como una forma de protección.

“Queremos que esas personas se queden en casa. No quiero que tengan una falsa creencia de que de alguna manera usar una máscara para la cara ahora los protege y, por lo tanto, pueden salir más “, dijo.” Por lo tanto, existe una seria desventaja potencial para instituir una orden como esa.”

Still needed: Heroes to give blood

Happy Birthday Maria!

Next local blood drive scheduled for May 18

By Rodney Orosco Staff Writer

Happy 66th Birthday to Maria Arellano. Her children Teresa, Irma, Jessie and BJ wish her the happiest of birthdays on May 2. She is pictured above holding her youngest granddaughter, Reagan.

Helping during the COVID-19 crises is as easy as resting in a chair for about 20 minutes and then eating a cookie.

That is about the extent of giving blood—a resource still needed during a pandemic.

However, giving blood may seem risky to those being asked to shelter in place and wear a mask in public.

Karen Benson-Neil, a member of the Winters Lions Club and chair of their blood drive, wants people to know donating blood is safe and essential.

“Blood only has a 90 day shelf life,” Benson-Neil said. “It is needed, now more than ever.”

For the past 40 years, every eight weeks the Lions Club has hosted a blood drive in Winters.

“We have community members who donate every eight weeks, because it is

convenient and necessary,’ Benson-Neil said.

A pandemic is not going to stop her commitment to the community and society.

Those wishing to donate must be in good health and they will be screened at the time of donation to ensure they are healthy, Benson-Neil said.

The next opportunity for those to recline and savor that cookie is May 18 from 2:30 p.m. -6:30 p.m. at the Winters Community Center.

Save-the-date

Upcoming Winters blood drive dates to mark on calendars are: • July 13.

• Sept. 14.

• Nov. 9.

• Jan. 11, 2021 Giving blood only takes about an hour, yet has a true and lasting impact on the lives of the recipients.

Vitalant inspires local communities to serve the needs of others

and transform lives through the selfless act of donating blood.

Eligibility

Whole blood donors must be at least 16 years old (16 and 17 need a signed Vitalant parental consent form available online at Vitalant.org), weigh a minimum of 110 pounds, be in good general health and bring a photo I.D. Other donation types have specific eligibility criteria. For more information visit vitalant.org/Donate/Donate-Blood-Overview.

Vitalant is the nation’s second largest community blood service provider, supplying comprehensive transfusion medicine services for nearly 1,000 hospitals and health care partners for patients in need across 40 states.

For more information and to schedule a donation, visit vitalant.org or call 877258-4825 (877-25VITAL).

May is Older Americans Month A time to make connections with the senior community Winters Elder Day Council Press Release When Older Americans Month was established in 1963, only 17 million living Americans had reached their 65th birthday.

About a third of older Americans lived in poverty and there were few programs to meet their needs.

In April 1963 between President John F. Kennedy and members of the National Council of Senior Citizens designated May as “Senior Citizens Month,” the prelude to “Older Americans Month.”

Older Americans Month is a time for communities like the City of Winters, to acknowledge the contributions of past and current older persons to our country, those who defended our society.

Every President since Kennedy has issued a formal proclamation Older Americans Month is celebrated across the country through ceremonies, events, fairs, and other such activities.

The 2020 theme this year is to Connect, Create, Contribute, which encourages older adults and their communities to: • Connect with friends, family, and services that support participation.

• Create by engaging in activities that promote learning, health, and personal enrichment.

• Contribute time, talent, and life experience to benefit others.

Communities that encourage the contributions of older adults are stronger. By engaging and supporting all community members, we recognize that older adults play a key role in the vitality of our neighborhoods, networks, and lives.

Everyone benefits when everyone participates. We at the Winters Elder Day Council encourage you to connect, create, and contribute for stronger and more diverse communities this May, throughout the rest of 2020 and for decades to come.

Mieka McClain, the Flower Ninja,out delivering joy and happiness around Winters.

Flower donations help the Flower Ninja spread love and happiness

By Crystal Apilado Editor-in-Chief

WE ARE TEMPORARILY CLOSED...

The safety of our employees is our number one priority. Our plan is of course to reopen when it’s safe for our team and guests. We appreciate you and can’t wait to open our doors again soon!

During a time of frustration and fear, Winters’ own Flower Ninja has been making headlines across the Internet for spreading love and kindness to residents.

Mieka McClain, the Flower Ninja, is 6-years-old and already embracing the local trend of taking care of her community and bringing joy.

With a bitty floral bouquets from Roxie’s Flower Truck in hand, the Flower Ninja silently and swiftly delivers flowers to community members in hopes of bringing a smile to their day, happiness to their homes, and sharing the love she has for helping others.

Her random acts of kindness have since been featured on television segments and online including CNN International and Entertainment Tonight.

Mieka’s mother, Michelle McClain, said they started the Flower Ninja’s joyful deliveries, not expecting anyone to donate to the cause.

“We wanted to continue supporting our local small businesses as much as we could,” Michelle told the Express. “That’s where we came up with the

idea.”

Kristen Karlen, Roxie’s Flower Truck owner, said when she first created the floral business it was with the intent to deliver happiness, and the Flower Ninja is the perfect embodiment of that mission.

“I am overjoyed at the happiness the Flower Ninja and her family have spread through the community,” Karlen said.

Since the Flower Ninja’s debut, Roxie’s Flower Truck and the family have been contacted by others wanting to make donations to fund the bitty flower bouquets.

Michelle said they deliver bouquets at least once a week, but have sometimes been able to deliver twice a week thanks to generous donations to fund more flowers.

“We have received donations from Los Angeles, Sacramento and locally. Some anonymously,” Michelle said. “So many acts of kindness in one simple gesture.”

The partnership between the two can be seen on the Flower Ninja’s Facebook page as recipients are encouraged, via a card, to share photos of their bouquets to help spread joy. Photo after photo of smiles and bitty bouquets are

posted — flooding the page.

The page also serves as a way for Mieka, and the community, to see the impact she is making in Winters.

“I love being a part of it and watching the ripple effect of kindness that takes place,” Karlen said.

Anyone interested in donating to the cause can contact Roxie’s Flower Truck at roxiesflowertruck@ gmail.com or 530-2049669 and let Karlen know the donation is for the “Flower Ninja.”

Karlen is also currently donating 10 percent of sales off of the purchase of a Kids DIY Mother’s Day Bouquet Bundle from Roxie’s Flower Truck. The $30 DIY kit features a stepby-step video tutorial from the Flower Ninja, Mieka. Plus, children will get an opportunity to learn the names of the flowers used in the bouquet, and how to best care for cut flowers to extend their vase life.

Details are available online at https://www. facebook.com/roxiesflowertruck or https:// www.instagram.com/ roxiesflowertruck.

Opportunity beyond the high school mat

By Aaron Geerts

48 Main St, Winters, CA 95694 (530) 795-4501

Semantics at city council

Winters Warriors have been dominating the mat for years, and a grapple of them have gone on to wrestle at the collegiate level – like Vanessa Ceja. Although in mid-January she was named Student Athlete of the Week as a Wayland Baptist University Pioneer, it’s the blood, sweat and tears as a Warrior that got her there.

“I have a connection with wrestling. Once I realized you could do it in college, I started working hard at it.”

Vanessa commented on her passion for the sport and her road to WBU, “I’m nice and sweet in person, but once we step on the mat, I’m a different person. You’re going to have to kill me to get this win.”

Vanessa’s wrestling career started back when she was nine, followed closely by her older brother Anthony – who wrestled at Sacramento City College before injuring his ankle. They stepped onto the Winters Wrestling Club mats where they would forge a close bond with coaches

Andy Gomez and Fernando Goncalves.

“With Vanessa we always had the music going and sang along with conversations about life and wrestling,” Goncalves said recalling weekend trips to wrestling tournaments. “You develop a bond between wrestler and coach. They become part of your family and you look at them as if they are your child and all the accomplishments they achieve you are proud to tell your family and friends about them.”

The coaches also formed close bonds with Anthony – AKA “The Brahman Bull” according to Gomez – and their little sister Valeria – AKA “Dori” according to her mother.

“Anthony was fun to coach and fun to watch. He was as tough as a bull,” Gomez, WWC head coach, said about his bond with the Ceja family. “Every family that’s come through the program has gotten real close. We go to each other’s family gatherings and everything.”

Did you miss Youth Day, or was it just another Saturday?

A few of us got together on Youth Day to share old stories and have some refreshments. We were told to bring our own chairs, drinks and snacks and to keep our distance. Each couple had their own shade structure and it turned out to be

one of the best Saturdays that I’ve had in awhile.

Staying at home gives you time to think and after my permanent tenant commented about the cost of our Internet service we decided it was time for a change. Our landline phone, television

Some antics with semantics A funny thing happened at last week’s City Council meeting.

No, not the frantic search for Councilman Pierre Neu, lost for a while in the Zoom-o-sphere, finally popping up on the screen from somewhere in his backyard.

No, it was the use of a word whose meaning I thought was fairly well understood, yet seemed at the Council session to be a source of confusion, even controversy.

The word is “propose.”

Webster defines “propose” as “the act

and Wi-fi all come from AT&T. We used to have WAVE but changed when they raised their prices a couple of years ago.

Well, that special deal must have ended because AT&T raised their rates, too.

For some reason it is uncomfortable for me to make the call to change service providers. I took a breath and made the call. The wait time was less than 10 minutes and I told them I needed to do something to lower the price of our television, wireless and to cancel our landline phone. The woman

See MISS, Page 5 of putting forth something for consideration.”

Surely most people in Winters know what the word means, yet City Council Member Jesse Loren and City Manager John Donlevy seemed to go out of their way to make sure.

It came in the form of a question from Ms. Loren, who already knew the answer, to Mr. Donlevy, who’s response was at the ready.

Council Member Loren began the exchange: “I have heard that it has been

Letters Golden birthday celebration We would like to thank the community for a wonderful 100th birthday celebration for Rose Eleanor Kent, April 14. She had no idea anything had been planned and was very surprised. A “parade” started off with sirens and lights from the fire department followed by the police. Next a wonderful group carrying signs of well wishes while singing “Happy Birthday.” Many more walked with balloons, signs and wonderful birthday wishes. It was an amazing once in a lifetime event.

A special thank you to Mona Biasi for organizing it. A surprise party had been planned but due to the virus, as you guessed, it was canceled.

Again, thank you to all who came by and made this a very special day.

Community spirit helps keep us safe Winters and Yolo County volunteerism and collaboration allow Winters Senior Apartments residents to follow shelter-inplace and face-covering orders and the recommendation that high-risk people self-isolate at home.

Yolo Food Bank is doing weekly delivery of fresh produce and canned goods to every WSA resident. Thanks to Executive Director Michael Bisch and his team, to volunteer coordinators Robb Davis and Winters City Council Member Jesse Loren, and to delivery volunteers including Mayor Wade Cowan, Kathy Cowan, JoAnn May, Chris Rose, Woody Fridae, Rebecca Fridae, Jesse Loren, Bruce Bailey, Jennifer Rindahl and Katherine Jarvis-Shean.

Thank you to RISE, Inc.; the Buckhorn BBQ Truck; Chuck Pearce and the Pizza Factory and Marie Rojo-Heilman for additional food deliveries.

Jesse Loren made 42 cloth masks so all WSA residents could use one. Jenny Felsen made additional masks. Kathy Donlevy donated the fabric for Jesse’s, and an anonymous volunteer delivered Jenny’s. Thank you all, and to Sharyn O’Neil Lieth for matching mask-makers with mask-needers, and to Supervisor Don Saylor and Julie Saylor for connecting us with Sharyn and her Facebook group.

Thank you to Yolo County Public Information Officer Jenny Tan for responding to questions and concerns by making a social-distancing infographic for apartment buildings.

WSA property manager Jim Stelly has a talent for increasing resident safety.

Thanks also to Sup. Don Saylor and and his team (Tara Thronson and Sara Simmons), Yolo Healthy Aging Alliance Executive Director Sheila Allen, Yolo OES Manager Dana Carey and In-Home Supportive Services Manager Kim Britt for information and accessibility.

Finally, thanks to anyone I’ve omitted and to all who help us stay home, stay safe

and stay connected.

Act of kindness is appreciated There is a sweet, loving and very kind person in our community who Darlene Benson wants to thank. Whoever you are, thank you for the lovely flower arrangements you quietly leave on my door step. There’s no name, just loving words and beautiful flowers from your garden. It brightens my days during this crazy time of society challenges, and in dealing with my illness. I love looking at each flower and their beautiful colors. Whoever you are...I appreciate your “Acts of Kindness.”

Elders Day celebration canceled As many of you know, on March 12, 2020, California Governor Gavin Newsom issued Executive Order N-25-20, relating to the convening of public meetings in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, that included the need to be mindful of social distancing and community spread. On Wednesday, April 1, 2020 Yolo County extended a shelter in place and distancing order until May 1, 2020. Depending on events, this too may be extended.

In the current environment with public health and safety apprehensions around the increased impact of COVID-19, we at the Winters Elder Day Council feel it important to take a moment to assure you that the health and safety of everyone has always been, and will continue to be, of paramount importance for us. We hope that you and your loved ones stay safe and healthy during this time of uncertainty and on-going change.

It the midst of the current COVID-19 health crisis, current shelter in place and distancing orders, we are suspending the Elder Day event scheduled for June 27, 2020 as the present situation rapidly changes day-to-day. We did not make this decision lightly, but only after careful deliberation regarding just how infections COVID-19 is on all of us, especially our elder population.

We urge everyone to stay safe and healthy during these times and follow the medical advice offered from the public health community.

We will continue to closely monitor information from our public health officials and follow their guidelines to ensure we are doing everything we can to provide a clean and safe environment for everyone attending our events.

A panicdemic Youth Day canceled!

What a travesty!

Science says that being outdoors is healthier than being confined indoors. The Youth Day Parade could have happened in my opinion, even if we had to wear protective masks to attend.

Sweden is a coun-

try that hasn’t locked down. Do we know at all how or why they have been able to do this? Have any of the medical experts gone there to observe and ask questions? Perhaps they can’t get a flight to Stockholm.

This panicdemic has been holding people under house arrest.

Postal mail processing plants have been open and are operating. Garbage guys are working. So are American truck drivers who help stock our stores.

There are 50,000 suicides in this country each year with automobile accidents taking about the same amount. 400,000 people dead of opioid overdoses so far, the same number of our soldiers that died in World War II. Seasonal flu will cause many more lives than COVID-19 has taken. We were not shut down for these things.

Let’s get back to work. The virus pandemic really is a panicdemic. People are unemployed and suffering and they don’t have to be.

A lot more can be said but there just isn’t enough space.

ROBERT W. FISHER P.S. America the Beautiful should be Youth Day’s anthem.

We expected to have a new exhibition at the museum this month; we expected to our second Plein Air Festival this month to celebrate their work that celebrates our historic town; we expected to have a big gathering at the museum on our Big Day of Giving in early May, with a major donor who wants to help us inaugurate our capital campaign challenging our local donors to look for a new, permanent location. All that has changed. The museum is closed for the near future, and our fundraising activities are stalled for the moment.

Since you cannot come to the museum, we want to offer some of the Winters History Museum to you.

We have a collection of photos and videos that are available on screen at the museum.

We offer those to you by online at www.wintersmuseum.org. We hope that you can enjoy some of our history while staying at home.

But we look forward to the time when you can come back to the museum and enjoy our photos and artifacts in person.

As for our fundraisers, that too is now seen in a different light. With all the questions surrounding the current pandemic, people’s priorities are put into question. We certainly understand if you are not able to offer any support at this time.

We do, however, have some continuing obligations, like rent, utilities, and some costs that we intend to incur as we get ready for the next exhibition when we do open our doors again in the near future. If you are so inclined to help, our Big Day of Giving will go on as planned,

If you are willing to help, you can schedule your donation at www.bigdayofgiving. org/wintersmuseum.

Donations can be scheduled today. We sincerely appreciate your support now in these unusual times.

Thank you, stay healthy, and we hope to see you soon at the Winters Museum.

Help support the Winters library The Winters Friends of the Library has participated in the Big Day of Giving for many years. Big Day is a regional day of fundraising for nonprofits. Our friends and supporters have been generous with their donations in past years, which we have used in myriad ways from buying books, computers, and other materials, to creating the garden and helping fund programs such as Storytime, the ESL classes, and Books for Babies.

Because of our dedicated community, The Winters Community Library flourishes.

The situation has changed greatly in our world right now. Under the new reality of the pandemic that faces us all, we have decided not to seek donations actively through Big Day of Giving this year. There are bigger needs than ours in our community.

Food banks, essential workers, and people who have no jobs are all struggling; and supporting them is paramount. We have enough funds in our organization to carry us through this year and meet our commitments to the Yolo County Library and the programs we support here in Winters.

That said, libraries are essential services and when the quarantine is lifted, our Winters library will have immediate needs. Therefore, we are keeping our name on the Big Day of Giving list, and those who wish to help us help our library are more than welcome to donate. We are still working with the three other non-profits in town that have teamed up to work on fundraising, but in a limited scope.

Should you choose to help support our organization, we will put it toward good use and will be grateful for your patronage.

Stay well.

REBECCA FRIDAE President, Winters Friends of the Library

Help support Winters Farm to School Winters Farm to School felt there was no choice but to cancel our annual Feast scheduled for June 20.

Our Board was as disappointed as the many community members who have supported us so generously in years past. Historically, this one-day event provided a majority of our funding for the entire school year.

Now we are looking forward to the Big Day of Giving on May 7 to help us to continue to provide fresh, locally sourced fruits and vegetable for our school lunch program. The community may not be aware that Cathy Olsen, the Food Services Director for the Winters School District, and her dedicated staff have been providing on average 3,000 meals a week to the children in our district, even though children aren’t in the classroom. Families can simply drive through to pick up meals.

We want our supporters to know that while this new delivery method limits what can be served, financial support of Winters Farm to School means that these curb side meals include at least some of the same fruits and vegetables from our local farmers that the kids loved eating when they were on campus.

On May 7 donors can give at www.bigdayofgiving.org. Just search for non-profit organizations in “Winters.� There is a 24 hour challenge, but there is the ability to go online and schedule your donation starting now! We are so grateful to the support of the community and thank you in advance for your generosity.

Features5Opinion Winters Express, Wednesday, April 29, 2020 — B5

MISS Continued from Page 2 on the phone was real nice and walked me through the process of getting switched to a new discount plan, as long as I would sign up for another year. That sounded like something we could do, so I said yes.

Our landline was now $30 a month and we couldn’t remember the last time we had a call that we wanted to return. I had turned off all of our phone

SEMANTICS Continued from Page 2 tossed around in the public that Winters has a proposed development to consume something like 700 acres.” Adding, “Is there any proposed development at this time, or has there been a Specific Plan or a document turned into the city to develop these 700 acres?”

Ms. Loren was obviously referring to the Keep Winters Winters campaign, which this week will submit the required number of signatures to place a citizens’ initiative on the November ballot.

(Actually, the group will submit hundreds more than required, a stunning achievement in these difficult times.)

The group often refers to a “proposed new development” in the North Area, one which would double the size and population of Winters.

It’s obvious why KWW does this. All one has to do is glance at the memos uncovered by the Express last year, which are now also available on the City’s website.

At stake are nearly 800 acres of farmland, which a Fresno based developer is proposing (there’s that word) to subdivide into tract homes.

MAT Continued from Page 1 After high school, Vanessa was invited to wrestle in Japan with other girls from all over the nation along with her sister Valeria – who is currently wrestling at Winters High School.

“Japan is all about respect. No attitude on the mat, only respect for the opponent and coaches,” Vanessa said about her and Valeria’s trip abroad.

“You know they’ve been wrestling forever. Their technique, experience, skill and dedication are outrageous.”

Wrestling has taken Vanessa to a variety of places like Japan, across the nation and finally, to college.

While she’s currently a sophomore student-athlete at WBU, her mother Erika Ceja recalls her daughter’s early struggles in college.

“It was a tough first year for her in a new environment,” she said. “But wrestling was something she brought from home to Texas and helped her through that tough adjustment.”

Erika shared about wrestling from a mother’s point-of-view, “Say goodbye to your weekends! There’s a tournament literally every weekend and practices and you have to have the dedication to want to do it.”She shared about

ringers a long time ago and all of our calls went straight to the answering machine. We had changed our contact phone numbers to our cell phones years ago, but disconnecting our landline was like waving to the kids when they left home.

We have had the same phone number for almost 43 years.

I don’t know how many people still have landlines, but as the years go by, I can see that number becoming zero. Even businesses have been

dropping their landlines for cell phones, or just Internet access to their employees.

You can email, text or say goodbye to personal service.

Yolo County has started opening up recreational areas, again Some good news this weekend was Yolo County health officials decided that it was okay to go fishing, sport shooting or golfing. Boat ramps could open, as well as fishing holes and golf courses. When they

mention sport shooting, I think they mean Yolo Sportsman’s can open to the public.

There were a lot of happy people at Yolo Filers Club on Sunday where I went for a long walk. The cups and flagsticks were set above ground, eliminating the hole.

All you had to do was hit the side of the raised cup and you were good to move to the next hole. It made for an easier day, but it didn’t help my final score.

I never figured

out why golf courses, fishing access or public parks had to be closed. If people weren’t keeping their distance, that was an enforcement problem. They should let people over 40 make their own decisions where they want to go, whether it be out to dinner, a movie or walking their dog(s).

If we don’t think it is safe, we won’t go there. People under 40, especially those under 25, don’t seem to think they are at risk and don’t seem to

mind playing basketball or other contact sports. They also think that it is okay to gather, in the hundreds or thousands, on the beach.

As places start to open, use common sense, keep your social distance, wash your hands often and enjoy a little freedom.

Remember, if we don’t behave ourselves, the number of deaths from COVID-19 will rise and we will be back in our homes wondering what happened.

Have a safe week.

“Dear Mr. Donlevy,” begins a letter signed by the developer’s agent, “On behalf of the property owners, I am respectfully requesting that we be allowed to proceed with the preparation of a “Specific Plan” for approximately 793 acres of land located on the northern boundary of the City of Winters.”

The letter states that 7,500 more people would reside in this huge new version of Winters. (Our population today is 7,200.)

The City Manager wrote in response: “We also anticipate that the contemplated development application will require significant modifications and updates to the City’s General Plan in conjunction with your project.”

Then, the City requested a 20,000 dollar fee to cover the costs involved in the preliminary request.

It certainly sounds like a proposal to me.

How about you?

Now listen to the City Manager’s response to Ms. Loren’s question as to whether there is any proposed development at this time.

“The answer is no,” he stated emphatically, “There has never been an application that has been submitted. In the past, staff does talk with property owners about many

things, but there is no application.”

Ms. Loren’s question was as perfectly crafted as Mr. Donlevy’s answer. Framed as it was, it allowed the City Manager to state that there has been no “application.”

Technically, and legally correct.

But to deny that there has been any “proposed new development” doesn’t seem, as they say on the TV lawyer shows, “the whole truth and nothing but the truth.”

Ms. Loren wrapped up the exchange by saying: “I just felt it was important to mention at this time that we have a process, and that anything that would be proposed would be proposed to Council,” adding, “in the clear light of day with public input.”

This bit of political theater ignores the fact that although there is no official proposal now, nothing would preclude the Council from approving one in the future (and by just three votes.)

Which is why KWW was formed in the first place: to create an Urban Growth Boundary (like most of our neighbor cities already have), beyond which any development must be approved by the voters.

The Council and Manager certainly

have the right to feel that as City leaders, the decision should be theirs to make. But with so much at stake, the very size, shape and population of our small town, what’s wrong with allowing a vote?

That’s what the Initiative process is: a procedure to be used in cases in which a decision is so significant, or irreversible, that it demands direct

participation by the public.

Do the people of Winters care enough to decide for themselves? I happen to think they do.

We’ll find out soon enough if the Council agrees.

On June 16, the Urban Growth Initiative will come before the Council Members, who will have a choice: adopt it outright, or insist on sending voters to the ballot box.

What do you “propose” they do?

the impact on the family’s culture, “Mexican culture is very strict.

Boys do boy things, girls do girl things.

These days I’m talking to other Latina moms trying to get their daughters wrestling because it’s breaking the stereotypes.”

Women’s collegiate wrestling is growing in popularity thanks to athletes like Vanessa. By embodying the dedication, desire and grit of a wrestler, she’s paving the way through cultural and societal stereotypes for others to follow.

ley up the most at 7.7 percent, followed by the Bay Area (7.4 percent), Southern California (7.3 percent), and the Central Coast (7.0 percent).

• Forty-two of the 51 counties tracked by CAR reported a yearover-year price gain in March, with Mariposa gaining the most at 20.7 percent from last year.

• California’s supply of available housing decreased in March from the prior month as the COVID-19 pandemic continued to disrupt the economy and the housing market. Potential home sellers are holding off listing their properties on the market as uncertainty about the future economic/ market conditions remains.

• CAR’s Unsold Inventory Index dropped to 2.7 months in March, down from 3.6 months both in February and March 2019. It was the lowest inventory level in three months. The index indicates the number of months it would take to sell the supply of homes on the market at the current rate of sales.

• As the fast-moving coronavirus continues to dominate daily lives and the economy freefalls into a recession, many potential home sellers will likely delay selling their homes, which will lead to fewer new listings being listed on the market. On the other hand, as homebuyers put off their plans to buy due to their concerns about the pandemic and its
