Joining the Magical Bridge partnership

The wonder of a Magical Bridge Playground, such as this one in Mountain View, will soon find itself realized in Healdsburg as part of the ongoing improvement of Badger Park that started in 2019. The city and a design foundation are working to make it happen…

The Ruse approved for abuse rehab

● Grove Street B&B prepares a fall-back

By Christian Kallen

What many were expecting to be another struggle between Healdsburg’s Planning Depart-

ment and the owners of 891 Grove St., also known as The Ruse, turned out to be a relatively mild hearing that ended in tacit agreement—though suspicions and conflicts remain.

After two hours of discussion on Sep. 23, the commission voted 5-1 to approve the conditional use permit for the property, and the neighboring lot at 893 Grove, as a “luxurious 13 bed Substance Use Disorder Facility,” to be renamed The Ruse Treatment.

The only dissenting vote was

Inclusion means everyone at new playground

● Badger Park may get innovative feature

By Christian Kallen

Nearly a dozen people followed one another to the speaker’s podium at last week’s City Council meeting, many of them teens from the local Sonoma Country Day School or the Girl Scouts. Each had their individual voice and reason for speaking, their perspective and memories, but all of them agreed on one thing: It was time for Healdsburg to have a Magical Bridge Playground.

The young teens found their voice in support of agenda item number 9.a, Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) pending before the council to partner with the Magical Bridge Foundation to create an inclusive, intergenerational playground at Badger Park.

“We never considered someone with disabilities might

actually have family members without disabilities, or that a grandparent might not be able to walk very well anymore, or that a mom with a toddler might also have a baby in a stroller,” said eight-grader Ella Weinzveg—who then added pointedly, “Or that a person with sensory processing challenges might actually need a quiet space to regulate for a few minutes in order to keep playing.”

She was followed by her sister Ione, Avi Weinzveg, Adelia Schoenberg and several Girl Scouts among others. Their message was revolutionary and uniform: Inclusion means everyone. End of story.

It’s fair to say the partnership would not be happening were it not for the focus that Emily Peterson brought to it.

the owners have proposed.

“The project proposes to operate a non-12-step program that will include therapy, counseling, and holistic practices like yoga, meditation and acupuncture. The facility will include medically supervised detox, dual diagnosis care, and customized aftercare,” the project description reads.

One aspect of this post-New-Age care: Golf Therapy. “A unique experiential offering… uses the sport to promote mindfulness, stress relief, and peer connection, blending physical activity with therapeutic reflection to support sobriety.” There is a professional-level putting green on the property, and owners Patrick and Jonathan Wilhelm also own the Mayacama Golf Club and Resort outside of Santa Rosa.

Although the B&B permit The Ruse operates under allows for 12 units, the proposal is for a 13-resident program, with lodging including seven rooms

the new hospitality services at Appellation Healdsburg with this Saturday Oct. 4 benefit, offering “magic, libations, delicious food and camaraderie—all in support of a thriving Russian River.” This event is waitlisted. 5-9pm, 100 Dovetail Lane, russianriverkeeper.org.

Fieri Fundraiser

Local chef Guy Fieri embraces his celebrity self with this annual Chefs for Heroes Fundraiser, to benefit his Foundation’s

in the main building, four “Greenside” suites, an additional detached bedroom referred to as the Squire’s Cottage and a new bedroom installed in the current laundry maintenance building.

This newly added bedroom would be the most significant remodel, but it doesn’t rise to the level of a separate permit. “The accommodations, the amenities of that room are not as nice as the other 12 rooms,” said Brian Stoesz, a colleague of the applicant Keith Greenberg. “That’s gonna be either kind of an overflow, or a room that we may negotiate price points a little bit. Maybe someone wants to come in instead of spending $50,000-$60,000 for the month; maybe they want to spend a little bit less.”

With Senior Planner Ellen McDowell overseeing the application, major staff findings of their conditional use permit application did not find anything serious to flag in the proposal. “The proposed location and operation of the conditional use and the conditions under which it would be operated or maintained will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity,” the findings read.

Both applicant and staff agreed that “no exterior modifications are proposed,” thereby limiting their exposure to objections. As such, “The project is found to be in compliance with all relevant city zoning or other ordinances, and thus the staff recommendation is that the Planning Commission approve the applications.”

Conditions of approval

The staff report did attach several conditions of approval, and more were proposed by attorney Rose Zoia, on behalf of Ariel Kelley, a next-door neighbor of the Grove Street property. Kelley, a member of the City Council, also made public statements during the meeting after clarifying she was speaking as a resident, not as an office holder.

The adopted conditions reduce the number of proposed smoking areas on the property from three to two, limit event participants to 30 and prohibit amplified sound at such, maintain appropriate state and local licensing, and require the auto-

work in support of first responders and veterans. Fourteen other celebrity chefs, wine from host Rodney Strong Vineyards, raffles and a live concert by a surprise guest, all on Saturday Oct. 11 Full culinary experience starts at $2,500 for the complete event, but concert only tickets are $250 at guyfierifoundation.org.

matic suspension of the use permit upon any code violations—though Planning Director Scott Duiven said “due process” would be followed.

On the issue of the increased use of the kitchen for food preparation, the conditions were slightly modified to stipulate only that, “The applicant shall investigate ways to reduce odors associated with the kitchen facilities.” Calls for increased public outreach from The Ruse to the neighbors, however, failed to make the list of conditions.

Those two shortcomings in the conditions may have led to Pearlman’s unexplained but notable “no” vote, and did not fully satisfy the neighbors in attendance at the Sept. 23 meeting.

Active appeals

The status of The Ruse’s relationship with the City of Healdsburg meanwhile continues to be in flux. There remain active court appeals, despite a $60,000 settlement payable to The Ruse’s lawyers as decided in a recent Sept. 7 court settlement. And The Ruse continues its litigation over the city’s denial of its conditional use permit for the private sports club, which may take some time to work its way through the appeals court.

Meanwhile, the Ruse has an application with the Alcoholic Beverage Control for a license to serve beer, wine and liquor, an application clearly at odds with a substance abuse treatment facility. That raises the possibility that the proposed use as a treatment facility is planned as a fall-back measure, should The Ruse’s lawsuit against the city fail and/or the liquor license be denied.

“The approval of the substance abuse facility does not negate the ABC license, however commencement of that use would,” Duiven said. “The Ruse cannot operate as a treatment facility and a B&B at the same time, and the treatment facility cannot have a license to serve alcohol.”

Duiven pointed out that according to the approved conditions, “they have one year to commence operations or request one of two allowed one-year extensions. They are not bound to move forward with the project, but they have the approval to do so.”

ENTERTAINMENT

P. T. Anderson’s funny, intense ‘Battles’

● New film a ‘wildly entertaining rollercoaster capturing lightning in a bottle’

By Jared Rasic

Let me get the hype out of the way right from the jump so it doesn’t seem like I’m gushing over this movie for too many paragraphs in a row: One Battle After Another isn’t simply just an instant classic (which it is). Neither is it just another great Paul Thomas Anderson movie in a career filled with two or three of the actual greatest films ever made.

What One Battle After Another actually achieves is something even more singular: It’s a film released at a perfect time and with so much on its mind as to feel like equal parts manifesto, state of the union address and canary in a coal mine.

But since Paul Thomas Anderson is a master filmmaker incapable of making art that doesn’t leave a lasting imprint

on our cultural zeitgeist, he didn’t just conjure a scolding rebuke of policy or a bitter takedown of the racism inherent in our current administration; he instead made a film completely drunk on the possibility of cinema and the importance of the medium. Every frame, every performance, every line of dialogue exists in One Battle After Another not just to make a statement, but to be a wildly entertaining rollercoaster capturing lightning in a bottle and then setting it free for us to dance beneath.

Equal parts Dr. Strangelove, The Battle of Algiers and Paper Moon , the film follows Leonardo DiCaprio as “Ghetto” Pat Calhoun, an explosives expert and member of the French 75, a revolutionary group that we meet rescuing immigrants from a detention center in Southern

formances by DiCaprio, Penn and Benicio del Toro—who might be having more fun here than I’ve ever seen him have— and beneath the brilliant madcap satire designed to stir the hearts and minds of its viewers, what Anderson really achieves with this film is to say, unequivocally, that the most American thing a person can do is to be a revolutionary. Not necessarily by the strictest definition of the term, but by living life in a way that fosters connection, beauty and love.

As much as One Battle After Another rallies against injustice, racism and a police state, it pushes its viewers toward just being better humans, toward helping strangers, toward being better parents and more engaged members of our community, all while leading with love instead of fear.

California. He falls in love with Perfidia Beverly Hills, played by the incendiary Teyana Taylor, and has a daughter, Charlene. On the run from the United States government—personified by Sean Penn’s profoundly disturbed Col. Steven Lockjaw—Pat just wants to keep his little girl safe while being true to his own subversive spirit.

I don’t want to share any more of the story because watching the deliciously unpredictable tale unspool across a breezy three hours is too mesmerizing to risk spoiling. That’s one of the things I keep coming back to with One Battle After Another. Yes, it’s timely and important and all of those adjectives critics use to mark the significance of a film, but it’s also ridiculously funny and twitchily intense—an unreservedly entertaining ride that pulls the audience along through its twists and turns in such a propulsive way as to feel just as revolutionary as the French 75.

Beneath the expertly calibrated per-

Aside from Anderson’s stunning script and direction, we’re also blessed with career-best compositional work by Radiohead’s Jonny Greenwood, understated and lush cinematography by Michael Bauman and star-making performances from Taylor and Chase Infiniti, among so many other amazing elements. Every detail is executed flawlessly in a way that most movies don’t even come close to achieving, making One Battle After Another feel momentous even as one watches it, but without crystallizing as to why until after it’s over. It’s perfect. An actual, perfect film. One of the very few. What’s also slyly and brilliantly subversive is that One Battle After Another isn’t just set in Trump’s America. By letting the technology look somewhat dated in the service of a story that feels immediate, One Battle After Another becomes unstuck in time. It’s a rallying cry for the past, the present and the future that won’t feel like an artifact when people marvel at its prescience a hundred years from now. Anderson isn’t telling people to wake up right now; he’s telling the entire world to pay attention to the collective mistakes of our past so we’re not chalking off the outline of the ruins in our future.

One Battle After Another will be taught in film classes decades from now when instructors want to illuminate the inherent power of cinema in the hands of a visionary. I hope the shaggy odyssey of this story helps empower generations of Americans to push back against the dehumanizing othering being weaponized into turning a country of immigrants into something far less utopian than dystopian. Whatever the eventual legacy of this movie is decades from now, it’s unlikely a more entertaining or important film will arrive in 2025. Movies like this are why I champion cinema as an art form and have dedicated a big part of my life to writing about them. It’s a mirror and a window. What do you see?

Midseason report on Greyhound sports

● From cross country to volleyball, boys and girls compete

By Caleb Knudsen

With the coming of October the school year is well underway, and with it the exploits of the student athletes in the Greyhounds sports programs. Here’s a rundown of some action on our courts, fields and trails.

Cross Country: Healdsburg’s runners have plenty of meets during the fall, and while many are regionals or invitationals with many schools participating, the “duel” meets between specific teams get underway this week. The runners travel to Ukiah on Wednesday, Oct. 1, for the first such meet in the North Bay League – Redwood section.

Athletic.net, a national sports site for high schools and colleges, has a preview of the meet based on the runners’ top scores—and its projection shows that

Healdsburg’s team time (top five finishers) will beat Ukiah’s time by almost five seconds. Take it with a grain of salt, but check the results later this week to see how they did.

In actual races, a surprisingly strong sixth-place finish by sophomore Lucas Welty (15:46.50) at the Farmer Invitational in Hayward on Sept. 20 put him across the finish line ahead of senior Jake McWilliams (16:03.71), who came in 14th on the crowded field. It’s the first time this year Welty defeated his older teammate, though both

finishes were personal bests. Sophomore Domenico Cornilsen was a full minute behind (17:06.19), in 49th place.

The girls didn’t finish as well, but the top Healdsburg time went to freshman June Nelson (23.35.30) on the threemile route. Her time was only 13 seconds faster than senior Madeleine Herzberg (23:48.52) but is an encouraging sign for the girls cross country program.

Boys Football: It’s another tough season for the Greyhound boys, despite the continued strong performances of junior QB Frank Rea Jr. and senior receivers Hayden Mariani and Max Morris. Rea, however, completed less than half of his pass attempts (18 of 38) and gave up three interceptions in the Sept. 26 game against San Rafael. Though he carried for over 100 yards for the third time this season (122 this time), those gaffes hurt and San Rafael coasted to a 56-21 win. Mariani hauled in five receptions for 71 yards, two of them for touchdowns. Morris

hurt the Bulldogs in another way, returning a kickoff for an exciting runback to score six points. But that was all the point production the offense could summon, while San Rafael spread its eight touchdowns among seven different players.

Next game is Friday night, as the 0-5 Greyhounds try their luck against league rival Novato, with its 1-3 record. Kick-off is 7pm at Rec Park; welcome back the boys to their home field.

Girls Golf: Our recent reporting on the success of the girls team was borne out by their powerful performance at the nine-hole mini-tournament in Ukiah on Sept. 25. Their team total of 239 outpaced their closest competitor, Ukiah’s 291, by a staggering 52 strokes, sweeping all six individual matches along the way. Other schools were Maria Carillo with 296 and Montgomery at 314.

Once again, Brooklyn Viramontes set the tone, firing a composed five-over 39 that featured birdies on the par-4 second and par-4 eighth holes. The balanced scoring across the lineup emphasized the team’s depth, as every player contributed to the victory.

Next up was a meet on Tuesday this week at Tayman Park against the Ukiah team. It was followed the next day, Wednesday Oct. 1, also at Tayman, with another nine-hole mini with the same four regional schools as last week in Ukiah. The website will be updated as scores become available.

Girls Tennis : After winning three league meets in a row, over Windsor, Analy and Rancho Cotate, the girls’ luck ran out in the 5-2 loss to perennial powerhouse Cardinal Newman on Sept. 25. They have another league opponent on Tuesday this week, at Santa Rosa (results to be announced). In fact their next three matches are all on the road, before returning to the Frost Gym on Oct. 9 to play Piner.

Volleyball: The Lady Hounds volleyball team broke an eight-match losing streak last week, shutting out Elsie Allen 3-0 in the second league meeting of the season. It was a long dry spell for the Hounds, as they won only one set in that period, over Analy in a 2-1 loss on Sept. 6. “We made them work for every point, and played volleyball I can be proud of,” said coach Jonathan Nuttall. “At the end of the day, the score always means less to me than the quality of our play, so I’d call that match a success.”

It was a different story at Elsie Allen on Sept. 25 as the Hounds took all three sets by dominant scores: 25-8, 25-9 and a squeaker at 25-14. The win gives Healdsburg a 5-12 season record, but the 1-1 record in league play suggests there are more wins in their future.

Senior Josefine Mork leads the team with 1.8 kills per set, 55 total. Junior libero Elizabeth Aleman is doing her job with 5.1 digs per set and 26 serving aces so far, averaging 0.7 per set. Senior Siena Sbragia puts the ball where it needs to be with 126 assists on the year.

‘Magical Bridge’

— Continued from page 1

She is a Healdsburg resident, former teacher and parent to 6-year-old Aisley, who has Cornelia de Lange syndrome, a genetic birth condition that leads to delayed physical development.

In 2024 Peterson helped bring adaptive swings to several city parks for children like hers who don’t have the opportunity to play with others. She discovered that Healdsburg was sorely lacking in adaptive amenities in its parks system, and in March 2025 Peterson started an online petition to create a Magical Bridge Playground in Healdsburg.

The petition in support of a Magical Bridge Playground is still active at chng. it/DTFY6bhJxV and currently has almost 900 signatures; Peterson’s goal is still 1,000. But Peterson only started her petition in March, and just a month later delivered it to the city.

The timing was perfect. New Project Manager Tom Campbell had just started with the Planning Department, and the city was about to decide on the second phase of development for Badger Park. With Campbell’s internal support, Peterson’s compelling arguments and a visit from representatives of the Magical Bridge Foundation, the possibility of creating a Magical Bridge Playground in Healdsburg took shape.

The Magical Bridge Foundation is a nonprofit organization headquartered in Palo Alto that creates multigenerational playgrounds, parks and programs for more inclusive communities. Its founder and CEO, Olenka S. Villarreal, introduced the Magical Bridge concept to the general public in 2015 and to the

City Council last week.

A series of common-sense design and materials innovations create safe play areas, sensory stimulation as well as relief, places for imagination and connection, with play elements that appeal to people of all ages. “It’s reimagining what a playground needs to be and should be,” Villarreal said in her overview. “Magical Bridge creates a lot of different areas of the playground that no matter your size, your age, your ability or disability, you will enjoy the space—and it will become a community asset and a place that will draw people.”

The concept of a “destination play-

ground” may seem unfamiliar, but looking at the photos of some of the 10 colorful, inviting Magical Bridge Playgrounds, most of them in the Bay Area, it’s easy to imagine wanting to visit one with family members, with friends or because it’s there.

The Memorandum

The outline of the MOU, Memorandum of Understanding, is that the Foundation and the City partner in the creation and implementation of the playground. The Foundation will undertake all studies and site evaluation, conduct fundraising to assure that the enterprise is “funded entirely by private donations with no fiscal impact to the city” and complete the schematic design and visioning with public engagement by the community, all the while working with the city and the Badger Park Redevelopment Team.

The City’s obligations are to coordinate and work collaboratively, though the proposed schematic must be reviewed and approved by the city as well. If the city decides not to move forward, it is under “no obligation to reimburse the Foundation” in any way. The Foundation has similar rights to cancel the project if it’s determined to be not viable.

All of that encompasses the design phase, not the actual construction of the project—that remains to be negotiated between the city and the foundation, following the schematic design steps. But getting the heartfelt endorsement of the City Council, and its unanimous vote to proceed by the end of the discussion, felt like a win for everyone.

“I am so honored to be a part of this

magical project and cannot believe this is actually happening after years of advocating!” said Peterson, who attended the meeting with her daughter and was the last of the public to speak on the topic.

“I am just so excited that we’ve gotten to this point. I am completely moved by the community that is supporting us, all of the residents and youth who have spoken tonight,” she continued. “I believe in Healdsburg, and I’m just so grateful that Healdsburg has listened.”

Two Easy Steps To Keeping Your Business Name

The puzzling conundrum of child care landscape

● It doesn’t have to be this terrible

The story behind Peter Pan legend

● From personal loss to books, plays, movies and fairy doors

By Pierre Ratte

There is a new smoothie shop in town. It’s Carmella. It offers up cold-pressed juices, smoothies and what they call “smoothie bowls,” essentially whole-fruit smoothie elements in a bowl. All the drinks and bowls are plant-based and natural. Even the plant-based milk choices (yum) are homemade. Oh, and the smoothie recipes—next level. Check Carmella out on the east side of the Plaza.

Not long after Carmella opened, a fairy door arrived. Not all shops get them, but many fave places in Healdsburg are blessed with them. Fairy doors started to appear in Healdsburg in 2017. Those who look carefully might spot them. People can ask, but they may not find the secretive artist responsible for these creations. The doors appear and change, as if by magic.

Fun Facts: Fairies are a part of folklore in many cultures. Typically, they are spritely, small creatures with magical qualities and a penchant for frivolity and trickery. Leprechauns in Ireland are a type of fairy; so are the Menehune of Hawaii.

Peter Pan is not a fairy, though Tinker Bell is. J.M. Barrie describes Peter as “betwixt and between” a boy and bird—he escapes his nursery as a 7-day-old and is raised by birds and fairies in Kensington Gardens. The inspiration for this character was Barrie’s brother, who tragically died in an ice-skating accident. Dying one day short of his 13th birthday, flying about on skates, he was remembered affectionately by his mother and brother as the boy who never had to grow up. J.M. Barrie willed the copyright revenue from Peter Pan to the Great Ormond Street Hospital—the first to specifically provide in-patient beds for children. The U.K Copyright Act created an extension and exception in 1988 for the hospital to receive royalties from Peter Pan in perpetuity.

The play debuted in 1904 around Christmas in London as Peter Pan, or the Boy Who Wouldn’t Grow Up. It was an astonishing success; characters flying on stage were not common. Walt Disney saw the play starring Maude Adams in Marceline, Missouri, when he was about 9 years old. A year or so later, Walt was cast as Peter Pan in an elementary school production. As an adult, Disney spent four years acquiring film rights and succeeded in 1939. The film Disney produced grossed $87.4 million on a $4 million budget in 1953.

At three months old, my son was kicked out of his daycare. I had spent my pregnancy navigating my city’s brutal child care landscape. So, when I found this place, I felt a flood of relief. Yet, less than a week after I returned to work, I received a call asking me to pick up my son because he was crying too much. The next day, same call. After a few days, I was told “it was not a good fit.” I had until the end of the month.

I had exhausted my PTO and depleted my savings in an attempt to offset the costs of my unpaid leave. I don’t have family nearby. I’m a single mom working in healthcare, unable to work remotely or stay home fulltime. I finally found the daycare he now attends, but it costs more than my rent—it puts a $1,600 deficit in my monthly budget. So with each passing month, I fall further behind on car payments, student loans, utilities. And every day, I field calls from debt collectors. All of this is due to the cost of child care.

Unsustainable

Almost every mom I know has a story like this. The details vary, but the common thread is this: Child care costs are unsustainable. Sweden offers 16 months of paid parental leave. Norway provides leave specifically for parents caring for a sick child. Canada is initiating $10-a-day child care. Portugal has free child care for all, regardless of income.

This late-night rabbit hole affirmed what I already knew—moms in the U.S. are struggling due to systemic issues and policy failures. It was moms that helped me secure a last minute daycare spot. It was moms who recently gathered at a local park to swap baby gear in response to rising prices. And it will be moms who demand more from our policymakers when it comes to the accessibility of child care in our country.

Brea Harris is a single mom and community health specialist living in Chicago. This commentary was distributed by OtherWords.org.

SECRET ENTRANCE Somewhere on Center Street, another entrance to the underground world of fairies, sprites and children who won’t grow up appeared near Carmella, a new smoothie shop.

Said sale will be held, but without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession, condition, or encumbrances, including fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust, to pay the remaining principal sums of the note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligation secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is: $324,366.54 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 beneficiary under said Deed of Trust heretofore executed and delivered to the undersigned a written Declaration of Default and Demand for Sale, and a written Notice of Default and Election to Sell. The undersigned or its predecessor caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where the real property is located. 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 (855) 313-3319 or visit this Internet website www.clearreconcorp.com, using the file number assigned to this case 136649-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 Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: Effective January 1, 2021, you may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (855) 313-3319, or visit this internet website www.clearreconcorp.com, using the file number assigned to this case 136649-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 an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.
