Cindy Buffa joins the No Kings gathering along Healdsburg Avenue where protestors shared several things in common, among them humor and resolve. What they had to say is best read in their signs, or the article that starts on this page.

● What demonstrators had to say
Staff Report
The third No Kings demonstration was held nationwide on Saturday, March 28, in over 3,000 communities. One of those communities was Healdsburg, which also participated in the two 2025 national demonstrations, on June 14 (in 2,100 communities, said to have drawn 5 million nationally) and on Oct. 18 (7 million, in 2,700 locations).
Other demonstrations in Sonoma County on March 28 took place in Cloverdale, Windsor, Santa Rosa, Sonoma,
Cotati, Petaluma and Sebastopol. Organizers had hoped to draw 10 million participants on March 21, but it looks like the final total of up to 8-9 million fell short. In Healdsburg, as nationally, each rally drew a few more people, but the setting of the demonstration—along the length of Healdsburg Avenue from the Roundabout south, on both sides of the street, and spilling over on the Mill Street and Healdsburg Avenue legs as well— made a head count difficult.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

A Friendly Face for Visitors
Visitors from California, the U.S. and around the world come to Healdsburg— yet our Plaza has no visible welcome or central place to answer their questions. Other destination towns already have kiosks or visitor centers that showcase what makes their community special. A well-designed kiosk or information cart in Healdsburg, staffed by volunteers, could help visitors find shops, restaurants, events and more, and provide answers to questions about the town while highlighting its unique charm. Visitors who feel welcomed stay longer, spend more and return—often bringing others with them. That increased spending generates tax revenue that supports city services and benefits the entire community. With friendly staff available to answer questions and offer guidance, a quick visit can become a full-day experience, supporting businesses across the Plaza and beyond. This isn’t just about tourism; it’s about community pride. A visible welcome point signals that Healdsburg values everyone who comes through our doors.
I urge our city leaders and HTID to prioritize a central, welcoming visitor hub on or near the Plaza. It’s a small step with a big impact—helping Healdsburg remain a destination people talk about, remember fondly and revisit often.

Leaf-Blower Ban
Last week at the Healdsburg City Council’s annual Goal Setting meeting, I again requested that they consider an ordinance banning gas-powered leaf blowers.
The State legislature outlawed their sale in California over two years ago, because their inefficient engines are a major source of greenhouse gas emis-
sions (GGE): the California Air Resources Control Board estimates that using a blower for one hour generates as much GGE as driving a Toyota Camry 1,100 miles. But they continue to be ubiquitous, except in the hundreds of municipalities that have banned their use.
Every city in Marin County has banned gas-powered leaf blowers. Other examples include Los Angeles, Oakland, Berkeley and Walnut Creek. Locally, the City of Sonoma has had a ban in place since 2016. Transition to electric devices was not onerous, and they report minimal issues with enforcement. With so many successful examples to replicate, Healdsburg staff could draft an ordinance and policies with a minimal investment of time. I have heard no objection to doing so that didn’t sound more like an excuse for inaction than a real barrier to success.
At the meeting I presented the signatures of 65 residents who signed a petition in support of a ban. These were collected by a volunteer during an event on the Plaza. We might have collected hundreds more, because it is a very popular idea. I did not encourage volunteers to do so, because I felt that if we were making that effort, we might as well collect the 765 signatures required to place an initiative on the ballot. But I hope that won’t be necessary. I hope our elected representatives will represent us, as the system is meant to work. If you support banning gas-powered leaf blowers, write the City Council and tell them so. You just need to send one email to the City Clerk at rallan@ healdsburg.gov. She will distribute your message to the full council. Councilmembers also welcome phone calls and meetings with residents.

Roots in the community
● Dorrances make a difference
By Amber Turpin
The proprietors of BloodRoot Wines, Kelly and Noah Dorrance, have been organizing an annual music and wine festival called The Ramble as a fundraiser benefitting GIFFORDS, a national organization dedicated to preventing gun violence.
The partnership began as a way to honor the memory of their niece who was killed in the shooting at The Covenant School in Nashville. Since 2023, The Ramble has raised more than $250,000 for GIFFORDS.
“As hospitality junkies, we find fulfillment in creating joyful spaces where people can connect, celebrate and share
in community. We created The Ramble to honor our niece, Evelyn, transforming a painful moment into an experience that brings people together while supporting a vital mission … . This is how we know to make a difference, through hospitality and the joy of community,” says Kelly Dorrance.
Tickets just went on sale for the fourth iteration of The Ramble, taking place on Saturday, June 6, at Abel de la Luna Community Center Fields in Healdsburg. The event will feature headline performances from award-winning musical artists Spoon and Lucius, plus many more nationally acclaimed musicians. Also expect a ton of local food vendors, the debut of a new culinary stage featuring local chefs doing interactive cooking demonstrations and representatives from local wineries, including the Overshine Collective.
Amber Turpin: How did you get into this work?
Kelly Dorrance: A little bit of kismet, a little bit of passion and a lot of initiative. We assumed we would eventually move back to the Midwest and thought a try at the wine industry would be fun before we did so. That was 2008, and we’ve never looked back. Noah worked at a custom crush facility in San Francisco and made some wine on the side. With collaboration from friends in the industry, Banshee Wines was formed. We then went on to form Reeve Wines (our son’s name), BloodRoot Wines and Remy Saves The Sea Wines (our daughter’s name).
Did you ever have an “aha” moment with a certain beverage? If so, tell us about it.
Nothing quite beats an Aperol Spritz
under the Italian sun. Sun in the glass, sun overhead—la dolce vita all around.
What is your favorite thing to drink at home?
Honestly, we do get high on our own supply, mostly Reeve Wines Pinot Noir of varying degrees.
Where do you like to go out for a drink?
So hard to choose. Madrona, Little Saint, Lo & Behold and Geyserville Gun Club are our favorite cocktail spots. Location depends on mood, and whether or not you want to be seen or hide in a dark corner.
If you were stuck on a desert island, what would you want to be drinking (besides fresh water)?
Emphatically—rosé. It needs to be light, bright, vibrant, which is typically a rosé of pinot noir or grenache.

STANLEY DAVID BECKER
March 13, 1938 – January 7, 2026
Aresident of Healdsburg for 25 years, Stan Becker achieved a rewarding career and enjoyed a satisfying life in retirement.
Stan grew up in Brooklyn and Queens, New York and attended Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, graduating in 1959 with a BS in Electrical Engineering and a commission as a lieutenant in the Army Reserve. After a stint with the Army Signal Corps, he became a field engineer working with radar systems for Bell Labs. In 1963, Stan moved to Silicon Valley to work for Ampex Corp, an innovative company developing television equipment. He would become part of history with his involvement as chief engineer in creating the very first video tape recorder and hand-held color video camera for use in broadcast television. He continued to be an innovator and helped to develop non-linear video editing systems. Later in his career he went out on his own and was an in-demand consultant where he was a pioneer in the transition from analog to digital recording. His work with SONY took him all over the world and he enjoyed spending time in Japan, Germany, England, and South America, usually accompanied by his wife at the time, Blanche (pre-deceased).
Prior to Healdsburg, Stan and Blanche lived in the heart of San Francisco in an elegant condo where they regularly entertained and had a wide circle of educated and artistic friends. They moved full time to Healdsburg in 2001. Stan joined the Healdsburg Museum as a volunteer in 2005 and served 8 years in leadership positions on the Museum Board. He was honored in 2015 for his outstanding volunteer service. Stan’s most recent activities included collections management and providing content for the Museum’s “flashbacks” column in the Healdsburg Tribune.
Stan pedaled to Windsor or Geyserville three mornings a week, joining a cadre of elder cyclists. He claimed that this exercise and camaraderie transformed his life six years ago. Stan’s love of travel and bike riding led to epic cycling trips in France and Italy— in his mid-80s—in the company of his beloved niece Mary Lynn Machado of Bowen Island, Canada and cycling friend and inspiration, Phil Hartlaub. He would have loved one more bike trip.
Stan died at age 87 of prostate cancer at home in comfort and dignity with loving assistance from longtime friends, Holly Hoods, the Hartlaub family, Cheryl and Steve Caletti, Linda Hunt and Sutter Hospice. Mary Lynn arrived in time to say goodbye. Contributions in Stan’s memory can be made to the Healdsburg Museum, P.O.

CHARLEY R. WHITEHURST
November 1, 1939 – March 24, 2026
It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of our beloved Dad, Charley R. Whitehurst, on March 24, 2026, a man whose quiet strength and big heart touched every one of us.
Charley was born on November 1, 1939, to Troy and Betty Whitehurst in Visalia, California. He spent his youth in Asti, California with seven brothers and sisters. He loved his brothers: TN, Kenny, Richard and David Whitehurst; and he was very protective of his sisters, Elsie Wilson, Nancy Weerts and Nelda Chumley.
Charley leaves behind his wife of 63 years, Elaine Whitehurst; brother and sister-in-law, David and Dena Whitehurst; and his three children, daughter and son-in-law Veronica and Scott Holmes, son Chuck Whitehurst, and daughter and son-in-law Genny Whitehurst and Don Robinson. He was loved by five grandsons, Jonathan and Melissa Holmes, Kenneth and Brittney Robinson, Tyler Holmes, Christopher and Brittney Brown, and Wyatt Whitehurst Snyder and nine great grandchildren, Brooklynn Holmes, Jonathan Holmes Jr, Jordan Holmes, Kyron Brown, Asher Brown, Emma Smart, Oliver Snyder, and Luna King Robinson who will forever cherish him. He also leaves behind several brothers-in-laws and sisters-in-laws and dozens of nieces and nephews.
After returning from the Navy in 1959 with his best friend, Ron Campbell, he met and married Elaine. Together, they raised three children in the small town of Healdsburg while he worked at Idaco Lumber, later named Boise Cascade. He later worked at Mead Clark.
In 2000, he moved to Shingle Springs with Elaine where they made a lovely home in El Dorado County with their growing family nearby.
He will always be remembered for his love for cowboy movies, beautiful clocks, WWE, country music, his galluses (suspenders), his Dodge trucks, and road trips. His greatest joy was his family. He will be missed greatly.
Please join us for the viewing on Friday, April 3, 2026 at Chapel of the Pines in Placerville. There will be a gathering immediately following at his home at: 4707 Koto Road, Placerville.

“T-Bone n Weasel” at The 222 plays with stereotypes in bare-bones production
By Harry Duke
Two hapless, small-time crooks hit the roads of South Carolina in search of their next “big” score in T-Bone n Weasel. John Klein’s comedy is the latest theatrical presentation at The 222 in Healdsburg and concludes its short run with three performances through April 5.
Pals T-Bone (Aldo Billingslea) and Weasel (Timothy Roy Redmond) are tooling around in a stolen Buick when they hit upon the idea of holding up a liquor store. It's bad enough when they enter the store to find a rifle-toting owner (Sylvia Burboeck) behind the counter manning a cash register that won’t open, but then Weasel discovers the owner is an old neighbor of his. Their robbery plan goes out the door along with a bottle of Swiss
brandy that cost them all the cash they had on hand. They’d leave but for the fact their Buick’s fanbelt has busted.
So it’s off to a used car lot, a ravine, a church basement, a farm, a diner, a local politico’s home, a penitentiary and a construction site before they’re back on the road again. All the people they meet along the way—a shady used-car salesman, a preacher, a homeless man, a sexually insatiable female farmer, a redneck sheriff and a local doctor with political aspirations who professes to hate poverty but actually hates poor people—are played by Burboeck.
Klein’s script is slight and the humor is almost completely based on Southern stereotypes, but it is amusing. Very faint echoes of Steinbeck’s Of Mice and
Men resonate as Billinglea’s T-Bone plays George to Redmond’s Lenny.
Issues of poverty, political opportunism and especially racism are wrapped in humor in this typical bare-bones 222 production. The “set” consists of three chairs and a backdrop behind which Burboeck does multiple quick changes. That means it’s up to the cast to convey a sense of place and time, and director Jeff Bracco has three top talents at work here.
Billingslea shows there’s more to T-Bone than just being a career criminal, and a discussion with a prison chaplain hints at what might have led him there. Redmond brings a sweetness and naivete to Weasel that gives him more depth than a standard dunce. He never sees his friend’s color and is horrified by those who do. Burboeck brings significant comedic chops to her various roles. It’s worth taking a ride with T-Bone n Weasel
‘T-Bone n Weasel’ runs through April 5 at The 222, 222 Healdsburg Ave., Healdsburg. Fri, 7pm; Sun, 2pm and 7pm. $45-$105. Students free with ID. 707.473.9152. the222.org

SPORTS
Ballplayers swing into Redwood league action
● Softball team seeks turnaround, baseball players rack up the runs
By Caleb Knudsen
The softball team turned up for Tuesday’s game against Piner about the same time the rains began to fall, so the meeting of the NCS Redwood teams was postponed to a later date. The Greyhounds were hoping for an upset to reverse their four-game losing streak—the last time they won a game was against Willits, 13-3, on March 9.
Since then the fall of the ball has not gone their way, with successive losses
to Sonoma Valley, Analy, Montgomery and St. Vincent de Paul. Their record dropped to 3-5 overall, 0-2 in the league, and a positive shift in the wind would be welcome.
The team’s roster is full of proven prep athletes, such as Claire Berry, Izzy Osborn, Ashley Jenkins and returning pitcher Mia Halvorsen, still only a sophomore. Their numbers show their experience: Osborn leads the team with a .417 batting average and ranks second in on-base percentage (.517) behind Halvorsen, and Berry has the team’s only home run.
Halvorsen has struggled a bit, giving up 16 runs to Analy, 15 to Montgomery and 17 to St. Vincent, but in one sense
that’s how softball scores often run, given the smaller diamond size. Regardless, she finds some relief from Lily Farrer, also a sophomore, who has proven skills on the mound, But so far her more valuable role is at the plate: She leads the team with stolen bases (7-for-7 attempts) and runs scored.
The team is deep in the first round of games against their Redwood division rivals, all of whom they’ll meet again later in April and early May. Barring a rescheduled Piner game this weekend, their next game will take place in Santa Rosa on Thursday, and their next home game on Friday against Terra Linda. Baseball
The Healdsburg Hounds are putting in a
good season at Rec Park and on the road this year. They’ve amassed an 8-3 season so far, 2-1 for a second place tie in the Redwood. Along the way their bats have generated some big-score wins—backto-back 17-1 wins over Sonoma Academy and Lick-Wilmerding last week, and a 12-2 schooling over St. Vincent on March 27.
That game climaxed with a six-run top of the sixth as the Hounds kept getting on base and working their way around, just like coach Mark Domenichelli teaches them.
Slugger Isaiah Robles has some competition this year from sophomore Isaac Bermejo whose numbers are getting better as he sees more action. Hayden Mariani continues to be an all-around threat at the plate and on the bases, and tested veterans Alex Mauro-Manos (4-1) and Henry Smith (2-1) lead the pitchers’ stats. Also on the board are Noah Wong and Anthony Espinosa with a win each.
The coming week will see home games against Santa Rosa (Wednesday, too late for press time), Piner on Friday and Montgomery next Wednesday, April 8.

DUCK! Healdsburg pitcher Alex Mauro-Manos takes one to the helmet during the game against Sonoma Academy on March 17. The hosting Hounds won 17-1; Mauro-Manos was the winning pitcher.
NO SECRETS Of the multiple issues raised by protesters, the Epstein Files are a constant theme, both their content and their poisonous influence on politics.
No Kings
— Continued from page 1
Most observers believed a couple of thousand people showed up, most of them recognizable as locals. More important than any numbers, however, is why those people chose to stand on the street, holding signs, chanting and singing.
Sarah Bradbury of Indivisible Healdsburg said that the sponsoring organizations, which included Climate Action Healdsburg and Enso Engaged, “helped send a message to the current administration and Congressional leaders that “the power of the people is stronger than the people in power.”
She estimated the attendance at 1,800 people, “not only local families and neighbors but also several out-oftown visitors with signs and wide smiles.”
Why are you here?
As in previous No Kings demonstrations, the people lining the streets showed exuberant though not boisterous behavior, sticking to the messages displayed on their varied, handmade signs. “No Brain, No Heart, No Courage,” read one, comparing Trump to the Wizard of Oz characters; “Remember Only You can Prevent Fascism” said another, in a Smoky the Bear take-off; while yet another proclaimed: “I-Ran Away from the Epstein Files.”
What people write on a sign represents
one aspect of their argument; the other is their spoken world. When asked at the scene why the demonstrators were there, answers varied. One man dressed as a 1776 Patriot said simply, “Trying to save our country”—and he meant it.
“I’m thinking about the immigrants,” said another. “And the nasty way they’re being treated, since this whole country is based on immigrants. And by the way, didn’t Trump marry an immigrant?” (Fact check: two of Trump’s three wives were immigrants.)
The comments continued. “Protesting Trump. He’s immoral, a liar, all of the above—and racist, very racist.”
“The rally is not one great issue— just overall disgust with the Trump administration.”
“My daily outrage of our country, of the country, of our world, of the person who is bringing shame to our country. The graft, the cheating—I mean what isn’t there?”
Said a former council member, Brigette Mansell: “I’m here because I care about my community. I’m not going anywhere. I’m working hard because we’re very lucky to live here and we need to show up for the people who don’t feel so fortunate right now.”
Ron Edwards, serving as vice mayor this term, said, “It’s about getting people involved, and knowing that their community supports them. Mainly it’s setting the table for November, to keep the momentum going and a reminder of why voting is important. It’s the
public’s right to come out and speak.”
Another council member and former mayor, Evelyn Mitchell, also attended the protest. “I was encouraged to see so many Healdsburg residents turn out,” she said. “I believe this speaks volumes about how deeply our community cares and how willing people are to show up for one another.”
Mayor Chris Herrod showed up as well, blowing a conch shell to add to the lively atmosphere. His comment: “As Mayor, I represent the views of the
Council, who for the most part, do not take stances on national issues.
“So, instead I was there as an American citizen, along with millions of patriotic folks who showed up last Saturday to voice dissent against the administration’s reckless and illegal disregard for the Constitution and for the truth.”

dozen members of the public who came to advocate for a wide range of projects and concerns.
Public comments called for a visitor kiosk in the Plaza, a switch from traditional fireworks to a lighted drone show, a ban on gas-powered leaf blowers, more support for arts and culture, discounted water for residents who grow food in their gardens, and an emphasis on housing.
Facilitator Cathy Capriola then led the council through a discussion about personality types. Using a system called Sparketype, council members and city departments heads took an online test in advance that was intended to illuminate how individuals make decisions, what fuels their passions and what gives “spark” to their work.
The exercise was well-received by the council members, who were able to reflect on each other’s types and appreciate each other’s motivations.
City Manager Jeff Kay and Finance Director Katie Edgar then discussed the staffing and fiscal context for the goal-setting and upcoming city budget.
Kay noted that city departments are performing at a high level, often taking on new tasks each year even though City staffing has remained flat for the past five years.
Edgar offered a brief overview of city revenues and expenses, pointing out that while most cities have higher revenues from property tax than sales tax, Healdsburg’s revenues are split differently, with sales tax and transient occu-
pancy (hotel) tax making up the largest share of city revenue.
For much of the remainder of the day, the council reviewed previous goals and discussed new goals and ideas. Wordsmithing and discussions took place to consolidate and prioritize various goals.
The existing “City of Healdsburg Strategic Goals” fall into seven broad areas: Economic Diversity and Sustainable Growth; Environmental Stewardship; Affordable Housing; Infrastructure and Facilities; Effective Governance; Public Health and Safety; and Community Services. Any new goals will be added to these existing categories.
Most existing goals show significant progress, with the recognition that certain goals—such as affordable housing and street improvements—will likely be ongoing indefinitely.
Other goals—such as the completion of Foley Family Community Pavilion and state-mandated building code updates— are complete.
A new suggested goal is to study the feasibility of a parks construction bond.
As the meeting concluded, Healdsburg Mayor Chris Herrod noted that the existing five council members have worked together four years in a row, and he praised the council’s track record of cooperation.
The goal-setting meeting will inform how the council and city staff work together moving forward, and updated goals will be voted on in the next few months.

City Trustees Contract for Reservoir Awarded
The Board of City Trustees met in regular session Monday evening, all the members being present. Trustee Favour reported for the Street Committee that the sprinkling wagons were in good repair and ready for work. Trustee Merchant, who had been appointed to a committee on the sale of the site of the old pumping
station, owned by the city, for the purpose of erecting a slaughter house thereon, reported as not in favor of the sale, as it would be in too close proximity to the city's present water supply, and might contaminate it. The committee appointed to plant rose bushes in the Plaza asked for further time. Trustee Merchant commented on the appearance of the Plaza and thought it should be better taken care of. Bids as follows for the construction of the new reservoir were opened
and James Stanley of Oakland, winner of the bid, agreed to complete the contract within thirty days after it was commenced. There was some discussion as to the site of the new reservoir.

Flaming Truck Driven Through Healdsburg Streets to Find Fire Department
With reactions akin to those of Mahomet watching the mountain come to him, the Healdsburg Fire Department tumbled out on Center street to quench a furiously blazing lumber truck that, spouting flame and smoke, rolled up to the firehouse for a spot of fire suppression Monday afternoon.
When the truck and trailer stopped in front of the fire department, the rear differential and truck bed of the two-unit truck, along with the four rear tires, was afire. Amount of damage to the vehicle was not reported. The truck, driven by Abe Vizart of Santa Rosa, was moving south on Highway 101 when he discovered the fire. Before reaching the fire house the truck traveled several blocks through the heart of the city’s crowded business district.
Had the truck’s tires blown out, Fire Chief Sullivan pointed out, serious human and property damage would have followed. Stressing the potential danger Sullivan said that the driver should have
stopped as soon as he discovered the fire and called the fire department.

Pillsbury to Sell Souverain
The Pillsbury Company, which in 1972 decided to add wine to its empire of packaged cake mixes and flour products, last week gave up its Souverain winery after absorbing a steady beating in the California wine industry.
For roughly $9 million Pillsbury agreed to sell the Souverain winery, restaurant, and land holdings in Geyserville to North Coast Cellars, an association of more than 100 independent grape growers, and managed by The North Coast Grape Growers Association. No staff changes are expected, except perhaps one or two Pillsbury employees.
Pillsbury, which also owns the “Burger King” chain, has taken a financial drubbing almost since entering the wine business. Lou Gelfland, public affairs director for Pillsbury, blamed the failure on an oversupply of grapes and cheap prices. Dedicated to the memory of Becker, the original Flashbacker.

Tips for first-time buyers
● Market is tough, but not impossible
By Janis Mara
Weekend after weekend, month after month, first-time Bay Area homebuyers King Wong and Sarah Law visited open houses and made offers to no avail. It took nearly a year, but they finally succeeded.
It’s tough for first-time buyers in the region’s hypercompetitive, pricey market, but being persistent, going up in price and writing a heartfelt letter to the seller can be effective strategies, agents and homebuyers said.
“There were about eight other offers on the house,” Wong said. “First we offered $850,000, then we bumped it up to $860,000, then we sent a letter saying how much the house would mean to us.”
Regarding the letter, longtime Bay Area Realtor Anna May said, “Sellers don’t always take the highest offer. Sending a letter can make a difference.”
Wong and Law explained to the seller that they wanted to raise their children in the house in San Lorenzo, and included a photo of themselves with their dog Cumba.
The two landed a single-family home, but buying a condominium can also be a good strategy for first-time buyers, who generally have less money to throw at a purchase.
As of early 2026, the median price for a California condo was roughly $638,000 compared to $850,680 for a single-family dwelling, according to the California Association of Realtors.
“For someone who has no children and doesn’t need a yard, this can be a great option,” May said.
It’s important for condo buyers to do their homework and check to see if the homeowners association has maintained adequate reserves, May said. “A lot of condo associations don’t keep their accounts solid.” Also, HOA fees can offset any initial price saving.
Homes with deferred maintenance are another option. While it might seem counterintuitive, if a home’s interior is not freshly painted, that can actually be a good thing, May said. “It shows the seller isn’t hiding anything” such as water stains from leakage, the agent said.
Of course, some deferred maintenance can be prohibitively expensive to fix. “It’s good to have your inspector go in and look at a home even if it’s brand new,” May said.
California has first-time homebuyer programs including the California Housing First Agency (CalFHA) program that are worth checking out. However, there are stringent income requirements, the Realtor noted.
“Consult with your lender and your Realtor to see if you qualify,” May said.
A last couple tips: “Don’t get too attached when looking at a house,” said Wong.
“In your head you say, ‘Oh, I can see our family living here,’ but your hopes could get shot down if they get a better offer,” he said.
Persistence is the main thing, Wong said.
“Just keep going,” he said. “It’s worth it.
RECENT SALES AND PRICES
In Sonoma County, the median home is about $756,667, according to the Zillow Home Value Index.
In February 2026, Sonoma County home prices were down 5.3 percent compared to last year, selling for a median price of $781,000. On average, homes in Sonoma County sell after 61 days on the market, compared to 41 days last year. There were 260 homes sold in February this year, up from 257 last year.

A.P.N.: 161-260-038-000 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the
street address or other common designation, if any, shown above. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. The requirements of California Civil Code Section 2923.5(b)/2923.55(c) were fulfilled when the Notice of Default was recorded. 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 website www.ndscorp.com/sales, using the file number assigned to this case 25-03265-GM-CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the internet website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT*: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are a “representative of all eligible tenant buyers” you may be able to purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call 888-264-4010, or visit this internet website www.ndscorp.com, using the file number assigned to this case 25-03265-GM-CA to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as a “representative of all eligible tenant buyers” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase. NOTICE: To the extent that the sale is subject to Financial Crimes Enforcement Network’s Residential Real Estate Reporting Rule (31 C.F.R. Part 1031), purchaser agrees to provide all required information and further agrees to reimburse trustee for any costs, expenses or fees incurred as a result of the collection of such information *Pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code, the potential rights described herein shall apply only to public auctions taking place on or after January 1, 2021, through December 31, 2025, unless later extended.
