Four years ago, students, staff and faculty within the Gilroy Unified School District collaborated with more than 15 law enforcement agencies to help produce a “Run, Hide, Defend” training video.

Since then, just about every school district throughout Santa Clara County has shown the CMAP-produced training video to provide school communities with the best possible tactics and procedures to follow if there is an active shooter at a school.

Santa Clara County Police Chiefs’ Association used funds from the state Homeland Security Grant Program to finance the video, which casted Gilroy students in an

Gilroy police believe that 42-yearold Steven Juarez was in possession of methamphetamine when he died in a struggle with officers on Feb. 25.

Gilroy Police Sgt. Jason Smith also said Juarez had an active arrest warrant at the time of the fatal encounter. He added that multiple officers had some degree of physical contact with Juarez in the moments before he died, and that all were wearing body cameras.

Smith said the substance that appeared to be meth, which was found “in (Juarez’) clothing,” will be tested to confirm it is an illegal drug. Police also found drug paraphernalia, Smith added.

Court records show that Juarez

has been arrested on suspicion of drug-related charges at least three times in Gilroy since 2006. The warrant for his arrest that was active Feb. 25 was for an unspecified probation violation, according to Smith.

Juarez, 42, of Gilroy, died after officers used a Taser, carotid restraint and “other forceful measures” to attempt to arrest him on the 7400 block of Chestnut Street in east Gilroy.

Police said last week that officers arrived to the neighborhood

on a report of a suspicious person and that Juarez tried to flee on foot when he saw police at the scene. Reports say he jumped over a number of residential fences and onto rooftops during the pursuit, and police speculate he may have fallen off a roof before officers caught up to him.

When officers tried to arrest Juarez, he began to struggle and resist, and verbally threatened the officers, according to police. ➝ Suspect Death, 10

Rains improve Uvas Creek stream flows MORE WATER IS FLOWING IN WATERSHED, IMPROVING CONDITIONS FOR FISH SPAWNING

By Barry Holtzclaw Managing Editor

environmental organization, Coastal Habitat Education and Environmental Restoration, will be hosting a Uvas Creek cleanup on Saturday, March 10, from 9am to 1pm. Interested volunteers are invited to meet at the Uvas Creek entrance to Christmas Hill Park in Gilroy.

The volunteers will include high school students who will receive community service credits.

The project will focus on cleaning up garbage and trash in the creek from Silva’s Crossing to the Santa Teresa Boulevard bridge.

The Santa Clara County Water District reported that as of March 2, its 10 reservoirs had a combined storage of just 26.9 percent of their full capacity. In one week of rain, the storage in the reservoirs had increased by about 507 acre feet, which is more than 165 million gallons.

Founded on donations in 2003, CHEER has negotiated conservation easements along the wide Pajara River watershed, aiming at restoring habitats. It operates Coastal Watersheds Garbage Museum, a "Mobile Education Unit" that delivers interactive environmental education to local schools and community groups.

“In 2016 the winter conditions created a situation that didn’t allow fish migration, then

Barry Holtzclaw

The late-winter rain has been good news for gardeners, farmers and the steelhead.

The Santa Clara County Water District sent out teams of hydrographers to streams in the Pajaro River watershed last week, and initial reports showed streams running at near seasonal levels.

One hydrorapher at Uvas Creek in Gilroy reported stream flows nine times greater than the previous month. With more rain expected this weekend and into next week, things are looking up for naturalists, who were concerned that bone-dry January and February would blunt comebacks by several endangered species.

The 104-mile Uvas-Llagas watershed flows south, gathering rainwater from the broad valleys of southern Santa Clara County, and meets the Pajaro River in northern San Benito County.

The timing of this rain couldn’t have been better,

according to Herman Garcia, who had been carefully monitoring endangered species in the watershed for two decades.

He waded into Uvas Creek in Gilroy last week with a water district hydrographer, to get a firsthand look at the flowing water.

Garcia said the steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) is set to begin the fish species’ spawning runs this month. For several years, drought conditions prevented that trek from Monterey Bay up streams like Uvas Creek to lay eggs. But the spawning runs returned in 2016 and 2017, after heavy winter rains.

Uvas Creek supports one of the last remaining wild runs of the steelhead, which is a federally threatened species that spawns spawn in fresh water for up to two years. The young fish migrate to the ocean where they reach adulthood, and adults return to their natal streams to begin the process again.

Garcia said fields in northern San Benito County rely on shallow wells for irrigation, and that the deep aquifers that provide drinking water for much of the region are still in good shape.

More than 50 streams flow into Pajaro River, and they need late-winter maintenance, he said.

His 15-year-old non-profit

CHECKING WATER Herman Garcia of Gilroy, founder of CHEER environmental group, checks out Uvas Creek. we spent the summer of 2016 taking out plugs so that fish could get in winter and they came barreling in, so we got our fish back,” Garcia told the Dispatch last year.

Steelhead trout are the same fish as the rainbow trout, but the latter spends its entire life in fresh water and the former live a major part of their lives in the Pacific. They look different as adults because of their different diets and environments.

Females can lay as many as 10,000 eggs in nests called redds, and, unlike salmon, which die

after they spawn, both male and female steelhead return to the ocean and make annual spawning runs, sometimes more than once a year, during lifetimes that can last as many as a dozen or so years. They can grow to between 40 and 50 pounds.

In 2006, the Pajaro River was designated as America's most endangered river by the American Rivers organization, due to levees constructed by the Army Corps of Engineers along its lower 22 miles (35 km) and severe agricultural runoff into the river.

County seeks applications for grand jury Staff Report

Every year 19 people are randomly selected from a pool of interested applicants for the Santa Clara County Civil Grand Jury, :to be the magnifying glass for the community into the inner workings of their local government.”

The jurors are charged with the task of investigating and reporting on the operations of local government by being given access to the agencies in Santa Clara County. These 19 volunteers and residents of the county are recruited annually by the Superior

Court to dedicate time into observing, reviewing, and publishing findings and recommendations in reports on the Superior Court’s Civil Grand Jury webpage.

This watchdog group is compiled of people from different backgrounds and expertise with a goal

of ensuring the governing body and its officials are working transparently with their constituents in mind.

The group must be able to pare down large topics due to the 12-month time period. The time commitment to the Civil Grand Jury may be significant.

Each group is able to decide its schedule with a majority consensus.

Grand Jurors receive a $20 daily per diem and mileage reimbursement at the federal rate when conducting grand jury business.

Persons looking for an opportunity to provide

significant impact on local government are encouraged to apply. For more information about the Civil Grand Jury visit www. scscourt.org and click on the GRAND JURY link, or call (408) 882-2721 to speak with Tamara Davis, Deputy Manager, Civil Grand Jury.

School Safety, 1 active-shooter-on-campus dramatization and informed viewers of the appropriate actions to take in such a case.

“We’ve been taking this serious for a long time and do everything we can possibly do to prepare for the unlikely event of a school shooting in Gilroy,” said Gilroy Supt. Debbie Flores, who also offers up the school campuses to Gilroy police officers to carry out their own live-training drills when school is out. “It is the top priority in this district to make sure our students are safe and that we’ve done everything to make sure they are safe.”

In preparing for the worst case scenario—one that no school employee hopes to ever encounter but must be prepared for—area school districts such as those in Gilroy, Morgan Hill and Hollister have longestablished, state-mandated, comprehensive school safety plans that are revisited on an annual basis with assistance from local police, sheriff, fire and other emergency response agencies.

“Anytime we have an incident, whether it be local or a national type like in Florida, we have a sit-down to take a look at what the initial findings were and look at our procedures to see are there any gaps based on that,” said San Benito High School Principal Adrian Ramirez, who conducts an active shooter drill each semester on his campus so staff and students are equipped to handle such a situation.

“Unfortunately, each of these incidents gives you some sort of insight

into different behavior and tactics being used.

We always have to make sure we’re on top of everything,” he said.

On Feb. 14 in Parkland, Fla., a singleshooter entered Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School and killed 17 students, injuring many more, in one of the nation’s deadliest mass shootings. Shortly after, police officers arrested 19-year-old Nikolas Cruz, a former student who had been expelled from the high school.

Cruz, who is alleged to have used a semiautomatic AR-15 rifle, has since been charged with multiple counts of murder.

“For any school to think that something like that could not possibly happen on their campus is being naive,” Ramirez added.

Immediately after the Parkland tragedy, State Schools Supt. Tom Torlakson sent “thoughts and prayers to the families of those killed and wounded in this horrible mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School” and also reminded school districts to update their school safety plans.

In Morgan Hill, one day after the Florida shooting, Supt. Steve Betando, along with Morgan Hill Unified principals, met with School Resource Officer Jeff Brandon of the Morgan HIll Police Department to debrief on the latest mass shooting.

“We discussed the circumstances about the Parkland incident known to us at that time,” said Betando, who sent out a letter to Morgan Hill families notifying

them of the extensive measures taken to assure student safety at local schools. “The group discussed our safety protocols, the site plans and the intruder response training that was put in place in 2014.”

San Benito High School District Supt.

Shawn Tennenbaum described the high school’s safety plan as a “work in progress” since they are “continually making upgrades and incorporating best practices.”

“Unfortunately, the most recent tragedy in Florida, it heightens the alarm bell. [School shootings] are more frequent now than ever in our country, more devastating,” Tennenbaum said. “Our utmost charge as a school district is to ensure a safe environment for not only our students but our staff as well.”

School resource officers and juvenile detectives joined teachers, administrators and counselors at a fourhour workshop on “School Violence and the Active Shooter” at the Gilroy Police Department this week.

The March 5 training session for 60 people from throughout the Bay Area was presented by the Public Safety Training Institute and paid for by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

The attendees included representatives from Gilroy Unified School District, San Benito High School, San Juan Bautista Unified School District, Morgan Hill Unified School District, and the Gilroy, Hollister ➝ School Safety, 8

MORE SCHOOL SAFETY INFORMATION Run If it is safe to do so for yourself and those in your care, the first course of action that should be taken is to run out of the building and far away until you are in a safe location.

Students and staff should be trained to •Leave personal belongings behind; •Visualize possible escape routes, including physically accessible routes for students and staff with disabilities as well as persons with access and functional needs; •Avoid escalators and elevators; •Take others with them, but not to stay behind because others will not go; •Call 911 when safe to do so; and •Let a responsible adult know where they are.

Hide If running is not a safe option, hide in as safe a place as possible. Students and staff should be trained to hide in a location where the walls might be thicker and have fewer windows. In addition: •Lock the doors; •Barricade the doors with heavy furniture; •Close and lock windows and close blinds or cover windows; •Turn off lights; •Silence all electronic devices; •Remain silent; •Hide along the wall closest to the exit but out of the view from the hallway (allowing for an ambush of the shooter and for possible escape if the shooter enters the room); •Use strategies to silently communicate with first responders if possible, for example, in rooms with exterior windows make signs to silently signal law enforcement officers and emergency responders to indicate the status of the room’s occupants; and •Remain in place until given an all clear by identifiable law enforcement officers.

Fight If neither running nor hiding is a safe option, as a last resort when confronted by the shooter, adults in immediate danger should consider trying to disrupt or incapacitate the shooter by using aggressive force and items in their environment, such as fire extinguishers, and chairs.

In a study of 41 active shooter events that ended before law enforcement officers arrived, the potential victims stopped the attacker themselves in 16 instances. In 13 of those cases they physically subdued the attacker.

While talking to staff about confronting a shooter may be daunting and upsetting for some, they should know that they may be able to successfully take action to save lives. To be clear, confronting an active shooter should never be a requirement in any school employee’s job description; how each staff member chooses to respond if directly confronted by an active shooter is up to him or her. Further, the possibility of an active shooter situation is not justification for the presence of firearms on campus in the hands of any personnel other than law enforcement officers.

GILROY DISPATCH

MARCH 9, 2018

OPINION LETTERS To the Editor, When Caltrain was extended to Gilroy, a local CPA and I calculated that it would be cheaper to buy each Gilroy Caltrain rider a Mercedes or BMW than for the taxpayers to pay for their Caltrain rides. When COG was promoting extending Caltrain to Hollister, I calculated, and went to the COG “public hearing,” as a member of the COG’s Citizens Rail Advisory Committee, that it would be cheaper for taxpayers to buy the Hollister Caltrain riders a house or condo in Gilroy than to pay for their Caltrain rides.

When Congress debated creation of the National Railroad Passenger Corporation (aka Amtrak) in 1970, its advocates stood on the floor of the House and promised “it will be self-sufficient in three years.”

When the Trojan Horse was wheeled into their City, the advocates were extolling its beauty, etc. Beware of Greeks bearing gifts.

Today’s transit advocates are wheeling their modern-day Trojan Horse into our towns. Do we learn from history? Or, are we doomed to repeat it?

Caveat viator.

Run, Hide, Defend...

S

adly, events in distant cities mean that our students and teachers have had to add another set of tools for school safety that we all hope they never have to use.

Preparations for a broad list of calamities— earthquake, fire, bomb threats, gunfire— are now a fact of every day life at schools and all grade levels. As if there aren’t already enough distractions in our local learning environments—clubs, sports, holidays, bullies, cell phones, social media, ICE raids, drugs, family and economic turmoil.

But it’s good to hear that local school administrators and law enforcement officials continue to take possible threats very seriously.

“We’ve been taking this serious for a long time and do everything we can possibly do to prepare for the unlikely event of a school shooting,” said Gilroy Supt. Debbie Flores. She has taken the additional step of opening up her school campuses to Gilroy police officers to carry out their own live-training drills when school is not in session.

“This is a tough topic, but we have to talk about it,” said Mike Elerick, who leads “school violence and active shooter” training sessions around the state, most recently in Gilroy this week. His classroom workshop discusses best practices, identifying behaviors, reporting procedures and security systems.

Elerick says the most important thing for schools is “to make sure they have a single point of contact for parents, students and staff—from janitors to teachers.”

At local high schools, that single point of contact could turn out to be lone security professional on campus, the “School Resource Officer”—a local police officer assigned to a school or group of schools, who salary is often paid or share by the school district.

The actions of one such resource officer came under a microscope after last month’s Florida school shooting.

In addition to being center stage in local school security efforts, the local resource officers are committed to building bridges between law enforcement and young people

that extend beyond school hallways. They are a friendly, caring protective presence for students as well as a resource for teachers and administrators.

Hollister Police Officer Juan Guevara has been the resource officer for San Benito High School for more than two years. Guevara is one of three Hollister police officers (the other two are assigned to middle and elementary schools) working in partnership with San Benito schools to help ensure a safe school environment. Morgan Hill has one resource officer, while Gilroy employs two resource officers at each of its high schools who are also in charge of their respective feeder schools.

It’s good to hear that local school administrators and law enforcement officials continue to take possible school threats very seriously.

“The responsibility of the resource officer is to be on campus, assist the schools, evaluate any suspicious activity that may be going on, patrol the area and just show a strong presence that you are there,” Guevara told us this week. He has a badge and service weapon, but is not in uniform. He often chats casually with students, talking about sports, student government and other topics.

Officer Jeff Brandon, in his fourth year as the resource officer in Morgan Hill, said he’s built invaluable relationships with both staff and students. “A lot of students seek me out to discuss problems they may be having. They know they can report things to me and come to me if they have any personal issues that they don’t want to follow them later on in life,” Brandon said.

So there may be bright spots after all in the midst of all of this heightened security at local schools.

FROM THE WEB Suspect dies in police custody Thank you Dispatch for reporting all of the facts this time. If someone is on Meth and you need to detain them what else are you gonna do? He fell off a roof and still kept going. The fact that they didn’t shoot at him is clear that no one wanted to kill him. Why is it the police officers fault for doing their job? It’s extremely unfortunate and so sad that he died, especially with five kids left behind, but it isn’t the Gilroy PD’s fault.

I didn’t know the guy, but a little empathy towards the family that may be grieving at the moment regardless who was wrong. It seems that no one has empathy until they need it.

Francisco Lorenzana Via Facebook

So he should die because he had meth? Nothing will convince me Gilroy police did nothing wrong or that they had a “good” reason. Pffft.

Kathleen Beckam Via Facebook

Shouldn’t have resisted arrest. Plain and simple.

Chris Vasquez Via Facebook

Wow, way to drag someone’s name in the dirt. As soon as Gilroy Police Department is starting to look bad they have to go and throw shade on the next guy. A person died—have some respect.

Emmanuel Fregoso Via Facebook

So what about his past history. Police brutality was unnecessary. Gilroy Dispatch and Gilroy police should be ashamed of yourselves, putting all this out there, maybe to cover themselves or perhaps making themselves feel better. Who knows? Juarez was still loved by many.

Norma Cordoza Via Facebook

Regardless of his history he was a good human being and I would know. He lived with me and my family and let me tell you he’s the most funny, easy-going guy you’d ever meet. He treated me and my sisters as his own kids and always had the right words or stories to say to make you laugh and smile. He loved playing football with my little cousins. Never judge someone by their history. Rest in peace, Stevie. Me and my family misses you.

GILROY DISPATCH

MARCH 9, 2018

Resource officers are key to security School Safety, 1 and Morgan Hill police departments.

“This is a tough topic, but we have to talk about it,” said Mike Elerick, who led the session.

The classroom workshop discussed best practices, identifying behaviors, reporting procedures and security systems.

The most important thing for schools is “they need a plan in place to make sure they have a single point of contact for parents, students and staff—from janitors to teachers,” said Elerick.

He said he has conducted about 40 “active shooter” workshops in California since the program began three years ago.

Many school districts, like those in Morgan Hill, Gilroy and Hollister, employ school resource officers who are assigned to one or more campuses and are another line of defense in the case of emergency.

“We have a great collaboration with the Hollister Police

Department,” Tennenbaum said. “Our school resource officer is invaluable.”

Officer Juan Guevara, with the Hollister Police Department, has been the resource officer for San Benito High School for more than two years.

Guevara is one of three Hollister police officers (the other two are assigned to middle and elementary schools) working in partnership with San Benito schools to help ensure a safe school environment.

Morgan Hill has one resource officer, while Gilroy employs two resource officers at each of its high schools who are also in charge of their respective feeder schools.

Through the partnership between police and schools, Guevara said they have established a uniform response among the many sites for emergency situations.

“The responsibility of the resource officer is to be on campus, assist the

schools, evaluate any suspicious activity that may be going on, patrol the area and just show a strong presence that you are there,” said Guevara. He parks his squad car in the front of the high school, like most resource officers assigned to schools, so “anyone who drives by can see me there.”

Officer Jeff Brandon is in his fourth year as the resource officer in Morgan Hill, dividing most of his time between Live Oak and Ann Sobrato High Schools. He is also assigned to Britton and Martin Murphy Middle Schools, and Central Continuation School.

Brandon said he’s built invaluable relationships with both staff and students over his tenure that have helped in his job of making safer schools.

“A lot of students seek me out to discuss problems they may be having.

They know they can report things to me and come to me if they have any

We’ve been taking this serious for a long time and do everything we can possibly do to prepare for the unlikely event of a school shooting in Gilroy —GILROY UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT SUPT. DEBBIE FLORES personal issues that they don’t want to follow them later on in life,” Brandon said.

Brandon and Guevara said they haven’t received any threats at their respective school districts in any form since the Florida mass shooting. “If anything there’s been a heightened awareness of security,” Brandon noted.

Local school districts installed multiple security measures at their schools to ensure safety long before the Parkland shooting. In Gilroy, along with active shooter training for staff and bi-annual “code red” drills, some of those

practices include school safe locks installed at the middle and high schools, perimeter fences and single point of entry for all school sites.

“Anytime a major school shooting occurs, we take a look at our safety plan again and ask ourselves, ‘Is there anything more we can do to assure our schools are safe as possible?’” said Flores, who was set to meet this week with district administrators and local law enforcement to go over their plan with insights from the Florida shooting.

At Morgan Hill Unified, which includes Morgan

Hill, San Martin and South San Jose, Betando notified parents and families of the “Five Powerful Strategy Fields to Improve Student Safety of Campus,” which are Prevention, Policy, Protocol, Practice and Public Information.

The Morgan Hill school board adopted a resolution March 6 calling for stricter gun laws.

“We have made a commitment to making school safety the first priority and worked hard over the past four years to make improvements in our school safety and security,” Betando said. “We won’t stop improving.”

Two Gilroy men arrested for Seaside robberies Staff Report

Two Gilroy men were arrested last week in Seaside, charged with committing three armed robberies in Monterey County in 24hour period, according to Seaside police's Peninsula Regional Violence and Narcotics Team unit.

Izaak Diaz, 24, of Gilroy and Mathew Silva, 20, of

Gilroy were linked to a strand of armed robberies on Nov. 29, 2017, after an investigation done by the Seaside task force.

The first robbery happened at a Motel 6 in Salinas at 1:27pm. The second was just hours later at 5:27am. a 7-Eleven on Reservation Road in Marina. The last robbery was committed at 6:52

a.m. at a 76 gas station located in Seaside, according to Seaside police.

Diaz had previously been involved in a series of robberies in San Benito and Santa Clara counties and was the first in custody. Detectives obtained a felony arrest warrant for Silva and arrested him in Gilroy on March 1 with the help of Gilroy police, the police unit said.

Silva was detained without incident and transported to the Monterey County jail; his bail was set at $60,000.

Anyone with information on the case should contact the Peninsula Regional Violence and Narcotics Team at (831) 646-6926.

GILROY DISPATCH

MARCH 9, 2018

Neighbors aren’t speaking about incident ➝ Suspect Death, 1

After seven Gilroy Police officers used varying degrees of force to arrest Juarez, he fell into medical distress and was transported to an area hospital. He was pronounced dead at the hospital.

Memorial services for Juarez took place Tuesday, March 6 at Habing Family Funeral Home in Gilroy.

The Santa Clara County Coroner’s Office is investigating the cause and manner of Juarez’ death. Gilroy police and the Santa Clara County District Attorney’s Office are also investigating the events leading up to Juarez’ Feb. 25 death.

Residents of the 7400 block of Chestnut Street, contacted by a reporter over the last week and a half, had little knowledge of the incident to share with the Dispatch.

Some said they were not in the neighborhood the night of Feb. 25.

Some who were home at the time of the incident said they didn’t see anything other than the flashing emergency lights of police patrol cars and fire trucks— a common sight on this section of Chestnut Street. Other residents in the area declined to talk to the press, and several were not home when the Dispatch knocked on their doors.

Juarez’ cousin, Rebeca Armendariz—a local community

activist and former candidate for Gilroy City Council—said some residents of Chestnut Street who witnessed the Feb. 25 incident have told her that police used excessive force to take him into custody.

She said the family has retained an attorney to look into the possibility of filing a claim against the Gilroy Police Department because “they’re not sharing any information with us.”

No public access to footage

All seven officers who responded to the “evolving call” were wearing body cameras, which recorded video of the Sunday night incident, Smith said.

Gilroy Police patrol cars are also equipped with dash cameras, and those on scene Feb. 25 also captured footage that will be reviewed in the investigation.

Police declined to release that video footage while the investigation is underway.

Officers are also in the process of gathering any video footage from private residential security cameras in the area that might have captured portions of the Feb. 25 incident.

Smith also revealed that all the Gilroy officers at the scene made some degree of physical contact with Juarez before his death, in an effort to detain him.

‘Evolving incident’

The Feb. 25 incident started when a female resident of the block reported Juarez as a suspicious person trespassing in her backyard, said police, who are declining to specify which address the call came from.

Juarez began to run away as soon as he saw the first officers arrive, police said. The officers ran after him, and the chase spanned alleyways and “no less than three backyards of different residences,” Smith said Thursday.

At one point, Juarez led police to a residential property on Martin Street, but the pursuit returned to the 7400 block of Chestnut Street.

Seven officers, the “majority” of the department’s on-duty shift at the time, responded because the Feb. 25 incident was an “evolving incident” with unpredictable circumstances, Smith added.

“Any time you have somebody going into different residents’ backyards and on the roofs, we’re going to get as many people there as we can, and that’s what we did,” Smith said.

“It’s so unfortunate that he died.”

Gilroy Police are seeking information from potential witnesses of the Feb. 25 arrest of Juarez and related incident. Anyone with information can call the Gilroy Police Department at (408) 846-0350.

Consumers warned about cactus health risk Staff Report

The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) and the California Department of Pesticide Regulation (DPR) today warned people not to eat cactus pads, or nopales, imported from Mexico sold at specific retail and wholesale

locations around the state due to the presence of unapproved pesticides.

Routine surveillance samples collected by pesticide regulation inspectors found various pesticides, including dimethoate, omethoate, monocrotophos, and methidathion, at levels

that pose a health risk to humans. Both monocrotophos and methidathion have been banned for food use in the United States for several years.

“Anyone feeling ill after consuming cactus products should consult their health care provider,” CDPH Director and State Health

Officer Dr. Karen Smith said.

“The symptoms of acute poisoning may include sweating, headache, weakness, nausea, vomiting, hypersalivation, abdominal cramps, and diarrhea. Consumption of monocrotophos can lead to neurotoxicity and permanent nerve damage.”

According to a Feb. 16 public health services press release, DPR sampled contaminated cactus pads that were offered for sale to consumers and wholesale consumers between January 23-29 at the following locations: • Rancho San Miguel Markets, Madera

• La Monarca Market, Lower Lake • FreshPoint Central California, Turlock • Arteaga’s Food Center, Sacramento • Stater Bros. Distribution Center, San Bernardino • S&L Wholesale Produce, San Francisco

GILROY DISPATCH

Police report many Chestnut St. calls LOW-INCOME AREA WAS SCENE OF GANG KILLNG IN 2013 Michael Moore Reporter

Neighborhoods along Chestnut Street in east Gilroy have been the scene of frequent police calls since long before Steven Juarez died there in police custody Feb. 25. It is also the street where Juarez survived a shooting in 2013, according to family members.

From Feb. 1, 2017 to Feb. 25, 2018, Gilroy police have responded to the 7400 block of Chestnut Street a total of 31 times, according to data provided

by Gilroy Police Sgt. Jason Smith. Nine of these calls were for an unspecified “disturbance.” Three of the calls were “animal related” and two were on reports of stolen vehicles.

Other calls listed by Gilroy police to the block include two reports of “suspicious person/vehicle,” one call for assault and one hit and run. The list of calls does not say if anybody was arrested or detail the extent of any injuries or losses in each call.

The 7400 block of

Chestnut Street is where Gilroy police contacted Juarez about 10pm Feb. 25, when officers responded to a 911 call reporting a suspicious person in her backyard, according to police.

When police arrived, Juarez fled on foot, and officers said they followed him as he jumped over fences and onto rooftops.

Police think Juarez might have fallen from a roof when they saw him lying on the ground near a residence. At that point, police said they attempted to arrest him, but Juarez struggled with officers.

Police used a number of forceful efforts to subdue him, including a Taser and a carotid hold, said Smith.

During the arrest, Juarez suffered medical distress.

Police and paramedics attempted to treat him, but he was transported to a hospital where he was later pronounced dead.

Juarez, who was 42 when he died, was no stranger to the Chestnut Street neighborhood.

His cousin, Rebeca Armendariz, also of Gilroy, said he was friendly with many residents in the area where he died Feb. 25. He was often welcomed into their homes.

In 2013, Juarez survived a gang-related shooting

outside a home on the 7300 block of Chestnut Street. His cousin, Jesse Silos, who was 30 at the time, died as a result of the shooting.

Police think Silos and Juarez were targeted by at least three suspects, one of whom pulled the trigger.

Armendariz said Juarez was shot in the neck during the double shooting, which took place April 3, 2013. She added that the shooting took place at Juarez’ home at the time.

Silos, who had previously moved out of town to avoid gang-related trouble, was visiting Juarez and his uncle as he was passing through Gilroy.

Two suspects were eventually convicted of murder and attempted murder in relation to the 2013 shooting, according to Armendariz. A third suspect has not been located.

The 7300 and 7400 blocks of Chestnut Street are also among Gilroy’s poorest neighborhoods.

According to data from the U.S. Census and other sources, compiled on the website datausa.io, the median household income of the Census tract that contains Chestnut Street was about $39,000 in 2015. The median household income for Gilroy as a whole was about $83,000 in 2015.

Gilroy stylists trim hair for homeless Bryce Stoepfel Reporter

Sheriff issues alert for telephone scam Staff Report

The San Benito County Sheriff ’s Office has received reports of a prior scam that has resurfaced.

In the scam phone call,

the callers identify themselves as a deputy with the San Benito County Sheriff ’s Office.

The callers then claim the victim is supposed to report to federal court for

all the dentists, doctors, and everybody else took one day, to do what they can for free?” Adams said.

“You hear lots of people talk about what they’re going to do. Don’t talk about it, do it.”

For some, it was more about retaining a sense of self-esteem, but it was a shot to get back on their feet.

“People don’t want to be dirty, they just don’t have a place to go,” Adams said. “We had one guy who was able to get a shower, a shave and a new haircut.

From there he was off to go on several job interviews. We kind of take these things for granted, but that’s a major privilege for these guys. You hear people say, ‘get a job,’ but often you don’t think about people who can’t get prepared for something like that.”

Kuts and Colors, at 44 Martin Street, is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10am to 5pm. To book an appointment call 408–842-9991. a grand jury hearing. The callers explain the victim has a “failure to appear and contempt of court citation” and say the “victim” needs to pay a fine over the phone.

A threat is then made that if payment is not received, a sheriff’s deputy will respond to make an arrest.

The San Benito County Sheriff ’s Office said it does not take payments over the phone for any services.

The agency does not act on behalf of any federal court.

A group of Gilroy hair stylists and Christopher High School students joined forces last week to help some homeless neighbors.

Hair stylists Lovell Adams and Christina Colon, along with members of Gilroy Pride and students from Christopher High School’s “out activism in action” donated some hours at the Compassion Center in Gilroy.

“The young lady I work with, Kristina Silva, kinda donated my time,” said Adams, owner and stylist at Kuts and Colors with a laugh. “But when I got there, I realized how much something like this was needed.”

The pair gave more than 50 haircuts given and the students provided more than 150 free pasta lunches served on the day.

The Christopher High students, who received a certificate in safe food handling from Rebekah's Culinary Academy, provided the food service.

“I didn’t expect to see that many people,” said Adams. “When I heard their stories, about how they got to be where they were, it really struck me.”

Kuts and Colors created a mobile hair salon, which Adams and Silva took to the Compassion Center.

They had inspected the center the day before and decided that folding chairs wouldn’t do, so they loaded everything up and set up shop on the road.

“We brought everything—‘lights, camera, action,” Adams said. “We wanted to bring the whole ambiance there. We had everything but the surround sound. I would definitely do it again, and next time I want to bring all of my stylists."

Next month Adams plans to donate free haircuts at one of the large homeless encampments in San Jose. For him, it's about taking action, and he wondered, what else could be accomplished?

“What if for one day

NEW DO, NEW YOU Kuts and Colors owner and stylist Lovell Adams turned the

Compassion Center into a mobile hair salon on Feb. 21, giving more than 50 haircuts to homeless Gilroyans. He asked, “what could we accomplish if we all donated just one day?”

Any correspondence of this nature will come in the form of formal documentation from the U.S. federal court system and should be followed up on by contacting the court directly.

Phone numbers can be found online. Deputies advise to not return a call to a number provided over the phone.

If you are ever in doubt, call the San Benito County Sheriff ’s Office at (831) 636-4080 or dispatch at (831) 471-1108.

GILROY DISPATCH

MARCH 9, 2018

NO DOCK, NO PROBLEM LimeBikes, part of a new wave of bike sharing technology, will not require fixed docking locations.

LimeBike approved for six-month trial BIKE SHARING PROGRAM TO BRING CHEAP BICYCLES TO GARLIC CITY Staff Report

Getting around Gilroy may be a little easier in the near future, thanks to a new bike-sharing program that is expected to hit the streets this month.

The Gilroy City Council last week unanimously approved a six-month pilot program with LimeBike, a San Mateo-based company that specializes in offering affordable bike share programs without the need to install infrastructure. Users can pick up and drop off bikes

across town without having to worry about returning them to a docking station.

“This is a new, innovative type of program that is being launched in a number of cities in the Bay Area,” City Administrator Gabriel Gonzalez said at the Feb. 26 council meeting. “It is a sixmonth pilot program that we want to test how it does here in Gilroy in terms of the market.”

Users can walk up to a bike they want to ride and unlock it via the LimeBike mobile app available on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. After unlocking the bike, a user would ride the bike to their destination, re-lock the bike, and leave it at the destination.

The app requires email

Don’t Just Aid Your Hearing.

Own It.

and credit card verification prior to use. Antitheft devices include the weight of the bike (around 48 pounds), an alarm, and GPS tracking.

The first ride is free and goes up to $1 dollar every 30 minutes and 50 cents for students.

“This is a movement continuing in Gilroy right now with a lot of young minds and leaders, city staff, and stakeholders further progressing and ultimately marketing Gilroy as not only a bike-friendly town, but also an innovative town,” Bicycle and Pedestrian Commission Chairman Zachary Hilton said. The commission recommended the six-month pilot program to the city council.

LimeBike has already

established itself in Burlingame and San Jose with electric scooters, but Gilroy is the first official city in Santa Clara County to have pedal bikes.The company intends to launch similar bike share programs in Palo Alto and Mountain View in April.

City Engineer Gary Heap said staff would keep up on performance indicators to see how the program is doing, which include tracking response times, app performance and usability, distribution or rebalancing of the bikes, repositioning of bikes, bike usage, complaints, and cost recovery if the city needs to interact or reposition bikes on behalf of LimeBike.

“City staff is being told

that the bikes will be positioned at a minimum of every three days,” Heap said. “They will be wiped down and brought back to a central hub location or a location of high use. What is nice about LimeBike is you can take the bike from the train station, ride it home, leave it in the front yard, and then someone else can look on the app, find the bike, go to your front yard and take it somewhere else.”

Outside of the downtown area and train station, locations for bike positioning are still being determined.

Potential future hubs and locations will be based on usage data and distribution of the bikes. Around 30 bikes are expected to be placed

downtown at the start of the program.

LimeBike employees will rebalance the bikes across popular locations in town and there will be whole teams whose job it is to pick up bikes, according to LimeBike Senior Operations Manager EV Ellington.

Councilman Fred Tovar asked Ellington how LimeBike would decide whether or not to stay in the city at the end of the six-month pilot program.

“The way we measure success is not monetary as much as we have a goal of getting rides,” Ellington said. “If people here in Gilroy are still excited at the end of six months about LimeBike and there is a demonstrated use, that is how we measure success.”

GILROY WRESTLING

HEAR ME ROAR Gilroy High senior Tony Andrade is pumped up after winning the 195-pound title match in last Saturday’s CIF Wrestling State

Chris Mora

Simply the best

Championships at Rabobank Arena in Bakersfield. Andrade finished 6-0 and won a 3-1 decision over Oakdale’s Colbey Harlan in the finals.

GILROY’S GREATEST TEAM YET SECOND AT STATE emanuellee Sports Editor

match. “When I got to the finals, I was zoned in, dialed in, tunnel vision setting in. I had some unfinished business.”

And boy, did Aguilar take care of business.

He went 6-0, winning his first match via pinfall before racking up five straight wins by decision: 13-0, 9-2, 8-0, 13-1 in the semifinals and the aforementioned 6-1 score in the finals. How dominant was Aguilar? He surrendered only four measly points in six matches, all of which were a result of Aguilar letting his opponent up from the starting bottom position.

That means Aguilar was never taken down, a remarkable feat that speaks to his offensive and defensive arsenal.

“My strength is my offense because I keep my hands and feet moving and create angles and positions to score points,” he said. “When my offense is going, they’re on the defense.

I’m not giving them a chance to get on the offense because I’m constantly pushing the pace.”

During the entire tournament, Aguilar rarely looked at the scoreboard, knowing

Chris Mora

Nic Aguilar jumped into his father’s arms in a jubilant celebration, a long embrace that was overflowing with emotion.

“I love you,” Damien Aguilar said to Nic after watching his son win the 120-pound championship match in the CIF State Wresting Championships last Saturday at Rabobank Arena in Bakersfield. It was an indelible moment that will forever be seared into both of their minds.

“That is an opportunity and memory we got to share together that many people don’t get to experience,” Nic said.

“He witnessed his son win a state title in front of an entire arena. It was indescribable.”

So was Gilroy High’s performance. It’s official.

With a second-place finish in the CIF State Wrestling

Championships, the 20172018 Gilroy team can lay claim to being the greatest squad in the program’s illustrious and rich history.

The Mustangs totaled 180 points—far and away the best in program history and the 11th highest point total by any team in state history—to finish second behind Buchanan of Clovis, which scored 219 points.

Gilroy’s 2008 team also finished second with 113 points. Aguilar wasn’t the only wrestler who won an individual state championship. Fellow senior Tony Andrade immortalized his name in the record books by capturing the 195-pound title. Gilroy’s placers included freshman Jayden Gomez, who took fifth place at 106 pounds; Chase Saldate, who took fourth at 126; Alex Felix, who was the runner-up at 132; Joe Barnes, who finished eighth at 160; and Nick Villarreal, who placed sixth at 285.

Aguilar and Andrade both were runner-ups last season; however, this year they were not going to be denied.

“I was a man on a mission,” said Aguilar, who defeated Henry Porter of Oakdale 6-1 in the title

I’M NO. 1 Mustangs senior Nic Aguilar gets his arm raised in victory after winning the 120-

pound title match in the CIF State Championships. Aguilar went 6-0 and never trailed. he was in control. He simply focused on scoring points, sticking with his routine and finishing strong every match. This was Aguilar’s fourth trip to the state tournament, and the previous experiences steeled him for a decisive breakthrough.

“In my freshman and sophomore years, when I

got up on the stage it was kind of a shock,” he said.

“This time knowing I had been there before, I felt comfortable in the environment and knew I had to get the job done.”

Greg Varela has been the Gilroy coach since 2009, and he is not only a coach but also a second

father to many of the wrestlers, having known them since they were adolescents. Whenever Varela talks about his wrestlers, he sounds like a proud father.

“Nic Aguilar used to get bullied as a kid because he was so small,” Varela said in a text message to the ➝ Wrestling, page 22

PREP BASEBALL

Christopher aims high emanuel lee Sports Editor

The Cougars couldn’t generate any offense— they finished with only two hits—against San Benito starter Ryan Jameson and reliever Ryan Platero, who only allowed a runner past second base once the entire way.

The Haybalers also made some tremendous defensive plays that prevented the Cougars from gaining any momentum on the basepaths.

“San Benito made some great plays defensively that kept them in the game and kept us off the bases,” Dequin said. “Hats off to

them. Their shortstop and second baseman made some great plays that prevented us from scoring on a couple of situations.”

Christopher played well; it didn’t commit a single error and it also has another outstanding starter in Sean Straub, who is scheduled to start the second of a backto-back with San Benito on Thursday.

In short, the Cougars are confident they’ll be contending for a league title.

Jonathan Newman felt like his curveball was off at the start of Tuesday’s Monterey Bay League Gabilan Division opener against San Benito.

Turns out, nothing was off at all. The Christopher High right-hander was flat-out dominant, striking out nine and allowing just three hits—two on infield singles—over seven innings in the Cougars’ 2-0 loss.

“You hate to be on the losing end of a game like this, but I’m definitely

not disappointed in their play,” Christopher coach Ryan Dequin said. “I told our guys not to hang their heads because they should be proud of the way they played.”

Especially Newman, who had all of his pitches working: fastball, cutter, changeup and yes, even the curveball.

“My curve was slipping out (in the first inning), so I had to adapt and figure out my grip so I could get it out in front,” Newman said. “That’s what I did, and all of my pitches were working.”

DOMINANT Cougars senior Jonathan Newman had nine

strikeouts over seven innings Tuesday against San Benito.

GILROY DISPATCH

MARCH 9, 2018

Gilroy dynasty is machine-like again “Tony has had two major knee surgeries and last year I found him hiding on campus during practice,” Varela said. “He wanted to quit. He was crying and scared of never being as good as he could’ve been. He was scared of getting hurt again. He was scared of failing. He felt all the expectations and hype was too much for him to live up to and he wanted out. We rallied as coaches to pull him together. Assistant coach Matt Corona has worked with him 1 on 1 for two years even moving in with him to help him with his schoolwork. Slowly we rebuilt this kid and today he is a state champ.”

Underdog mentality

FRIDAY CROSSWORD

CLINICAL All of Nic Aguilar’s vast technical skills were on display at the CIF State Championships, where he won the 120-pound title.

Chris Mora

Even though the Mustangs are feared throughout Northern California, when they get to the State Championships, they take on an underdog mentality. It’s not something they do artificially to pump themselves up. Aguilar, Felix and Varela emphasized how the top high school wrestling publications all had Gilroy finishing outside the top three in the team standings. They also noted how the other state powers had much larger teams.

“Buchanan, Selma and Poway had a bunch of people, and if you looked at our squad, we probably had half the number of guys Buchanan had,” Felix said.

“Everyone counted us out, and for us to get in the top two and stand in the face of adversity is a great feeling,” Aguilar said.

“We weren’t even mentioned on the Flowrestling Preview of the state meet,” Varela said. “We had national power Buchanan on the ropes and we beat Poway and Selma, who were nationally ranked ahead of us.”

Felix had a magnificent state run that was only marred at the end by a recurring knee injury.

He won his first five matches to reach the 132-pound title match, where he lost to Santiago’s Jesse

Vasquez 10-0. Unfortunately for Felix, he said he heard his right knee pop twice at the beginning of the championship match.

“I couldn’t do much,” he said. “(Vasquez) was good no doubt, but I felt confident I would beat him heading into the match.”

Despite the injury, Felix had plenty to be proud of, improving upon his pair of third-place finishes and a fourth at state over the last three years.

“I finally got that monkey off my back and made it to the finals,” he said. “Just in general, winning in the semis was big for me. In the finals, I knew I had to finish that match. No matter what, I was going to finish.”

Felix, who proved resilient just by finishing match on bad leg, said one of the keys to the Gilroy wrestling dynasty is the family aspect of the program.

“I wouldn’t trade my teammates for the world,” he said.

“They’re my brothers and we’ve grown so close together because some of us have known each other since we were 4 years old. So we are truly a homegrown team.”

Varela expressed pride in all of his wrestlers, noting Saldate’s improved mental toughness. “(Chase) let his nerves get the best of him last year at CCS and state,” Varela said. “This year he overcame his nerves and anxiety.

That same kid faced his demons and took fourth in the state.”

Every Gilroy wrestler that made it to state has literally put in thousands of hours over the course of their career. They usually start around 5 or 6 with the renowned Gilroy Hawks club program, setting themselves up to be future CCS and state champions.

Gilroy followed up its recordbreaking CCS tournament with a tour de force at state.

“It isn’t a season of hard work,” Varela said, “it has been a lifetime commitment.”

Chris Mora

From page 21 Dispatch. “So he took up wrestling and built up his confidence.

He had two heartbreaking losses in the finals the last two years to freshman phenoms and here he was in the finals again against another freshman phenom. He got over the hump and won a state title.”

As the referee raised Aguilar’s arm in victory, a torrent of emotions flowed through him.

“Just to accomplish something I set out since I was a little kid felt pretty good,” he said.

“This was the way I wanted to end my Gilroy career—waving goodbye to all of the Gilroy blue standing up in the crowd. We had one of the biggest cheering sections in the arena. They were supporting us like crazy, and it was awesome.”

Like Aguilar, Andrade strung together one of the most dominant performances at state. He won his first four matches by pinfall—in 1:07, 13 seconds, 1:39 and 1:32—before defeating Ryan Reyes of Clovis West 7-2 in the semifinals and edging Oakdale’s Colbey Harlan 3-1 in the title match. In a grueling sport like wrestling, adversity is inevitable.

Andrade missed an entire season due to a football injury, and yet he still persevered to become a state champion.

Midway through the season, Andrade told the Dispatch he was confident he would win the state title. Knowing he was starting wrestling season late due to playing a starring role on the football team’s march to its first-ever CCS championship, Andrade felt it was only a matter of time before he got into supreme wrestling shape.

Then he backed up his talk by creaming the competition at state. Varela pumped his fist and yelled when Andrade clinched the title. He knows better than anyone how much Andrade has overcome to be a champion.

TECHNICAL Tony Andrade’s talent and hard work proved to be

supreme in the 195-pound weight division in the state meet.

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 800-280-2832 or visit this Internet Web www.Auction.

R

aymond Domingo Trevino, 79, a longtime resident of Gilroy and Hollister, passed away on February 16, 2018 at the Veteran’s Home of California in Yountville.

Ray was born on April 24, 1938 in Bakersfield to Ramon Trevino and Margaret Contreras Trevino. He attended East Bakersfield High School before joining the US Army. After his service, he began a thirty-year career in the jewelry business, working in Sacramento, Stockton and San Jose, before opening his own businesses in Gilroy, Trevino Jewelers and Ray’s Jewel Box. After retiring from the jewelry business, he enjoyed cooking with his Gourmet Alley friends and catering special events. He also worked as a cook and enjoyed mentoring at the James Boys Ranch in Morgan Hill.

In later years, Ray lost his sight, but that did not stop him from living life to its fullest. He loved music, dancing, singing, fishing, and playing golf and poker. Ray was the first blind golfer to play in the National Veterans Golden Age Games competing against sighted players for several years beginning in 2007 and winning gold one year. He and his beloved guide dog Thorn moved to the Veterans Home in 2010. Ray returned to the Golden Age Games in 2012, traveling to St Louis where he took gold in bowling and shuffleboard, and silver in horseshoes and golf, the highest medal count ever for a visually impaired athlete.

Ray is survived by siblings Maria Garza, Linda Trevino and Victor (Norma) Trevino of Bakersfield, and Robert Trevino of Glendora; son Michael (Lori) Trevino of Kensington; daughters Ramona Trevino and Cecilia (Mark) Andrade of Hollister; grandchildren Vanessa (Everett) Yniguez, Kristine Padilla, and Raymond Andrade of Hollister; Carly Andrade of Davis; and Liliana and Carina Trevino of Kensington; and great grandchildren Ali and Isaiah Yniguez, and Jayla and Jocelyn Jones.

He is preceded in death by his parents, his wife Ann, and siblings Margaret Gutierrez, Paul Trevino and Vivian Ortiz.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be made to the Western Blind Rehabilitation Center, VA PAHCS Voluntary Service, 3801 Miranda Avenue, Palo Alto, CA 94304.

O

ur Mother, Shirley Brem, passed away peacefully on January 12, 2018 at Brandel Manor in Turlock surrounded by her family.

She was born in Salinas to Charles Phillips and Delmira Monteiro. In 1953, she married Richard Brem and they were married for over 62 year until he passed away in September 2017.

Mom is survived by three children, Mike (Tina), Nancy (Nick) and Jim (Pam). She has five grandchildren, Jason, Jeff, Ryan, Kyle and Tyson.

She also had five great grandchildren, Cali, Jack, Layne, Everett and Clark. She is also survived by her sister, Patricia Bettencourt.

Mom was the most dedicated wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother a person could have. She took great care of Dad until the end and her family was her biggest priority.

Mom was a great cook and loved to bake. We will miss her Christmas cakes and cookies. She also loved to sew and many have one of her quilts.

In keeping with Mom’s wishes, there were no services. We suspect she is already tending to Dad who has been waiting impatiently for her.

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. All checks payable to Prestige Default Services. 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 (714) 730-2727 or visit this Internet Web site https://www.servicelinkasap.com/default.aspx, using the file number assigned to this case 17-0770. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.
