In between the mighty waves of the Central Coast and the majestic heights of Yosemite, is Casa de Fruta in the Pacheco Valley, a roadside oasis along Highway 152 that has been offering commuters and holidaymakers a chance to rest, fill-up and make merry for more than 100 years. This week, the compound’s signature restaurant, the 24-hour Casa de Restaurant, celebrated its fiftieth anniversary. On Tuesday, customers enjoyed 15-cent coffees and $2 beers alongside their omelets and prime rib dip – a way for the family-owned operation to say thank-you to the generations of families that have passed through its welcoming doors over the years. “We’ve been married thirty-four years and the day we got married we

and explained that the role of the COG, the county’s regional transportation agency, is to focus on long-range planning. “We’re not so much down on the individual roads, but we try and help the local jurisdictions as much as we can,” Gilbert said. “There’s also some funding that comes through COG that we then allocate to local jurisdictions. We’re a partner to many agencies.”

Gilbert provided an overview of transportation funding, which includes fuel excise taxes, truck weight fees and vehicle registration fees.

Santa Clara Counties were more successful in passing their own 30-year sales tax increases in November. “Unfortunately that did not pass, but we’re still looking ahead and you may hear more in the next few years as we look toward the 2020 election for a sales tax measure,” Gilbert said. “That is a great tool we can have in the toolbox to help us leverage those state and federal funds.” While the Highway 156 expansion project is fully funded, Gilbert said construction isn’t expected to begin until Fall 2019. Local funds going to the project include traffic impact fees totalling around $9.6 million. Back in 2008, Caltrans approved an environmental impact report for the project that would expand the congested thoroughfare from San Juan Bautista to a point close to Hollister into

a four-lane, at-grade expressway. As of 2015, the cost of the project was estimated at $47.2 million for construction and $81.2 million total. According to a county transportation report, funding sources included local impact fees, state funds and inter-regional funds. As for Highway 25, Gilbert said that $180 million in funding is needed. “We are collecting traffic impact fees for that and looking toward other local sources, including potentially the sales tax measure,” she said. “It’s a lot of money.” Chambless delivered a report on road maintenance and repair. He told attendees the City of Hollister has allocated $2.4 million for an assortment of road related issues. “Of that, I’m going to be responsible for $200,000 of overtime, $125,000 for thermoplastic markings, $150,000 for

crack filling, $50,000 for pothole repair, $75,000 for [American Disabilities Act] improvements and $15,000 to replace street signs,” Chambless said. “That left behind $1.7 million for a road project.” Chambless said so far, city discussions on how to spend the $1.7 million has centered on fixing San Felipe Road, but nothing’s been confirmed, planned or sent to the Hollister City Council for approval. “We’re looking at that $1.7 million, repairing the patches we have on San Felipe Road from the airport all the way up to Fourth Street,” he said. “Putting what’s called a cap seal over the top, which is new oil and rock, on all four lanes.” If the city decides to fix San Felipe Road and there’s money leftover, Chambless said it could go to South Street between San Benito Street and West Street. “That section in there is

awful. A lot of people drive on it.” There are 673 miles of roads in San Benito County. “The study that was done by Pavement Engineering Systems last year estimated that the approximate cost to maintain or repair all the roads in San Benito County is going to cost about $398 million,” Valdez said. “Obviously, the county doesn’t have it. With the Federal Highway Trust Fund not being funded we’re not going to get it anytime soon. The state gas tax that we received last year, which was approximately $118,000, is not going to be nearly sufficient to address those needs.” The county is expected to receive $660,000 in the first year of funds from Senate Bill 1, which increased state gas taxes and vehicle license fees to raise funds for the state highway system and local roads, passed in the state legislature earlier this year.

The county has to decide where the money will be best spent, Valdez said. The engineering department is currently undertaking a cost allocation study to identify the roadways to be fixed. Based on the Pavement Condition Index, which rates roads on a scale from one to 100, the average condition of county roads is around 38, which is considered poor, Valdez said. “Where you want to be as a jurisdiction, as a community is right around 70.” While the county is conducting a study on the impact of trucks on county roads and updating impact fees, Valdez said tough decisions are coming for county supervisors over the next couple years. “We’re doing our very best to address the needs of the community by making sure we provide the board with the best possible information,” he said.

San Benito County Supervisors received a disconcerting update about the Panoche Valley Solar Farm on Tuesday. “They raped and pillaged us again,” Supervisor Jerry Muenzer said about the 26,000acre solar project in San Benito County that promised to generate 399 megawatts of electricity for locals when it was first approved in November 2010. County policymakers learned at their regular meeting that the renewable energy project has been cut in size yet again and the county won’t be receiving as much revenue as expected. The facility, a project by ConEdison Development, a subsidiary energy services company of Consolidated Edison, was first reduced to 247 megawatts in May 2015. This week, policymakers found out the facility would be further cut to 130 megawatts. “Unfortunately it looks like there’s little opportunity for the county to generate sales tax from the project at this point in its construction,” County Administrative Officer Ray Espinosa told supervisors on Tuesday. ConEdison Development acquired 50 percent interest in the project from RET Capital in 2015. The company secured approximately

26,000 acres for the Panoche Valley Solar Farm, with around 3,200 acres being used for solar development. A large portion of secured land is expected to be used for conservation efforts for endangered species such as the giant kangaroo rat and bluntnosed leopard lizard. County Clerk-Auditor-Recorder Joe Paul Gonzalez said the county previously calculated it would receive about $5.5 million in sales tax and $13.5 million in lieu of unsecured property tax from the 247 megawatt project. “But the project has been cut in half and we had originally calculated we’d be receiving about $2 million in sales tax at that size of a plant,” Gonzalez said. “However, because of the failure of the developer to ensure that the vendors created a mechanism here in the unincorporated county in order to report locally the sales tax, none of that sales tax money will be received in the county of San Benito directly.” Gonzalez said the county could expect to receive around $4.2 million in lieu of unsecured property tax from the newly reduced project, but zero dollars in sales tax. Espinosa broke down the numbers further. “I’d like to caveat that it’s approximately $100,000 to $200,000 a year versus the $800,000 to $1 million a year we’d be receiving,” Espinosa said. “That was

on a downlevel scale so you’d receive a little more up front and it’ll reduce over the 20-year period.” The Panoche Valley Solar Farm is located in the county near a major power transmission line and had an original planned capacity of 399 megawatts. The project faced legal hurdles in 2016 over environmental concerns when several groups fought the state over endangered species in the project area. Espinosa said the downsizing of the solar project was related to a May settlement agreement between the California Department of Fish and Wildlife and the Sierra Club, Defenders of Wildlife, and Santa Clara Valley Audubon Society. “I’m really upset about this whole deal,” Supervisor Anthony Botelho said. “I want our staff to work on cancelling this project and suing Edison,” he said. “For the sales tax. That money should be coming here. The point is even if the vendor is out of our county, because the equipment is in San Benito County it needs to be paid here.” A ConEdison Development representative said Tuesday that the company wasn’t going to comment at this time. Representatives for the Sierra Club and Santa Clara Valley Audubon Society weren’t immediately available for comment.

OPINION QUESTION OF THE WEEK

BY ROSEANN HERNANDEZ CATTANI Editor

Rough riding

Hollister roads are a modern day, “Tale of Two Cities.” They are smooth-riding among new developments and full of potholes in old town and on the outskirts. County voters failed to pass a 30-year sales tax measure last year that would have put money towards road repairs and highway congestion. What should city and county leaders do next?

Robert Eliason

I believe our city and county leaders should make roads a priority. With all of the new housing springing up all over the county, the traffic impact is surely to increase. Our roads are not able to carry the load now. The future looks like more 27-minute rides to Hollister from San Juan Bautista. Cesar Flores The roads should be one of the top priorities on the list for leaders. It is dangerous and there is no traffic control. We need to get professionals out here and get the job done. I travel a lot and deal with this on a daily basis like most people here. The roads are patched but not fixed. When you go from Hollister through the back by Lovers Lane, the roads are horrible, but when you get into Gilroy, it’s all brand new and nicely done roads. That's what we need to do for Hollister. They voted for the Measure E & T money which was for the roads. So what happened there? In 2018 we have to watch who we vote for, the job is not getting done. Keith Snow The intersection at Fairview and Fallon Roads is the area of most concern to me. That is a fatality waiting to happen and the intersection needs a light. Fairview

is a dangerous mix of impatient commuters and clueless farm equipment operators, but the roads are really a nightmare in general. I think it was very short-sighted of voters not to have passed the sales tax measure. I don't think we can expect our leaders to fix a problem without an income stream. Nants Foley There should already be money in your city budget to address roads. It's called good money management and allocating funds accordingly. Stephen Castro Put it all on the developers to pay for park bathrooms and roads. Dave Brill Quit taking staff’s advice and listen to your campaign promises. Richard Place

Question of the Week was posted on the Hollister Free Lance Facebook Page on Friday, July 14. Thank you to all who contributed comments.

COMMENTS No public pool leaves Hollister out to dry this summer Then they wonder why kids turn to do bad things. There is nothing for kids to do in this town. How about the YMCA that was supposed to get built in back of Ladd Lane school?

Raised five kiddos here; I always found ways to keep them busy. Thank goodness we had a very active church youth group. We were blessed to have a pool and always invited friends over. I kinda miss those days - a houseful of kids. Carla Talavera

I lived in Hollister my whole life. This is the one thing that has never changed. There's nothing for kids to do unless they're into sports. Debi Turturici Petty-Mahler

I must have clocked nearly two hundred miles this week driving between my home in north Monterey County and the expansive roads of San Benito County. I don't mind usually, the passing scenery of golden hills and agricultural fields that look like they were created by aliens from outer space are a visual thrill to this country-buff. Plus, I got to drive to Casa de Fruta off the Pacheco Pass Highway where I met Gene Zanger and his lovely sister Suzan Slater, who were celebrating the iconic roadside restaurant’s fiftieth anniversary, a welcome stop to generations of travelers and passing motorists. While I did not mind the extra miles, I don't think I can say the same for my longsuffering Volkswagen Beetle. The bumpy roads and congestion on Highway 25 and Highway 156 take a toll on the silver bullet. I was stuck in a diabolical traffic jam last Friday afternoon just outside San Juan Bautista on Highway 156, which caused some motorists to pull over on makeshift shoulders and the center median to keep their cars from overheating. As a parade of vehicles tried to circumvent the build-up by driving through Rocks Road, a helpful gentleman sipping a bottled beer outside his trailer on the country lane warned us not to bother. "Fridays are always like this. Go back." My plight is not an unusual one in this growing region. As more people chase Silicon Valley jobs and developers build housing to accommodate them, San Benito County policymakers and engineers must grapple with how to address crumbling roads rated "poor" based on their average Pavement Condition Index score and mounting congestion on the region's bustling highways, and do so with little in the way of available funds. Unlike residents in neighboring Santa Cruz, Santa Clara and Monterey Counties, San Benito county voters failed to pass a 30-year sales tax measure last year that would have generated much-needed funds to fix local and county roads and ease congestion, leaving local policymakers with a big problem on their hands. Business owners got the scoop on the county's state of the roads at a recent lunch discussion facilitated by the San Benito County Chamber of Commerce, covered this week by reporter, Nick Preciado. According to Preciado's reporting, an analysis of San Benito County's 673 miles of roads conducted last year by an engineering firm estimated that $398 million is needed to maintain and fix county roads. While the state has finally made a move earlier this year to raise state gas taxes and vehicle license fees to generate funds for the state highway system and local roads, the amounts floated are a proverbial drop in the bucket. The tax and fee increases should generate $660,000 for the county this year, business leaders learned. Last year the county received $118,000 for its portion of the state's gas tax revenues. It won’t be easy, but let's hope the creativity and expertise of San Benito County policymakers and traffic engineers can work magic and create an avenue to build smoother roads ahead.

Supervisors select Sletten to construct jail CONTRACT WORTH $20 MILLION Nicholas Preciado Reporter

County supervisors Tuesday awarded a $20 million jail expansion construction contract to Montana-based Sletten Construction. In May, San Benito County gave close to $1 million to construction management firm Vanir Construction. According to Vanir’s proposal, the project is expected to begin construction in late August. The contract is not to exceed $954,040. The county advertised the expansion project on May 16. Bids were received June 20. According to county documents, five construction firms submitted bids. While Halbert

Construction issued a base bid of $17,206,000, they later indicated an error and withdrew their bid. This left Sletten Construction, with headquarters in Great Falls, MT, at the next lowest bid of $20,139,852. County documents describe the project as a medium-security jail facility with around 72 beds with space for housing, medical, program, custody and administrative duties. Total project costs for the jail expansion are expected to be $25,016,394. According to the county staff report, California is funding $20,053,000 of the project. Of that, $15 million was awarded in 2007 to expand the jail and address both overcrowding and the

lack of program space. Prior to the contract award, supervisors held a bid protest hearing filed by Hal Hays Construction Inc. Of the four qualified bidders, Hal Hays was the second lowest bidder. The bid protest claimed one of Sletten Construction’s subcontractors, the Grazak Corporation, was not registered in the California Department of Industrial Relations website required by the Labor Code. While the claim sought to nullify Sletten’s bid, County Counsel Barbara Thompson said she received an email from Hal Hays Construction Tuesday morning. “We read the agenda package and see that Sletten has already been

permitted to replace the HVAC subcontractor,” she read from the letter. “We do understand the law as written permits that the basis of our protest is essentially stripped away, since Sletten remains in place by being allowed to replace Grazak. We are not attending today.” Board Chairman Jaime De La Cruz asked staff about a limit on change orders monetary decisions that don’t require board approval and which cap extra expenditures at $210,000. “If they exceed, they have to come back to the board for approval?” De La Cruz asked. “Doesn’t that circumvent the process of ‘who’s the lowest bidder and the second lowest bidder?’” Capital Program Manager Adam Goldstone explained.

“The public contract code does allow for a certain amount of change order authority to be granted from the board to a designee just to keep small things moving,” Goldstone said. “In the case of this contract amount, the maximum amount allowed is $210,000. Anything exceeding that would have to come to the board.” De La Cruz asked if a change order could be used for a contractor hiring a worker. “No, that’s my job and the construction manager’s job to make sure that all requests are valid and they are for unforeseen issues - not things that should’ve been covered,” Goldstone said. Supervisor Jerry Muenzer was the only no vote. “I have a hard time awarding a $20 million

contract to someone who did not fill out the bid properly,” Muenzer said during board discussions. “I think our Chair brings up a lot of good points. If we’re $10 million into this project and all of a sudden they come back and go, ‘Wow we need another $5 million. Can we do a change order?’ At that point we’re going to have to award it. We’re not going to be able to do anything else. That’s very concerning to me.” Goldstone responded that Sletten’s bid was in line with the other three qualified bids. That gives us some high confidence that this is an accurate price for this project,” he said. “The grouping was very good. Among those, this is not an outlier.”

County delays decision on cannabis ordinance PUBLIC CONCERN ABOUT WATER AND CULTIVATION BOUNDARY Nicholas Preciado Reporter

After receiving comments from residents during a public hearing, San Benito County supervisors on Tuesday delayed the approval of a cannabis business ordinance. The item, which deals with cannabis cultivation for medical use only, will be continued to the board’s August 22 meeting. On Tuesday, speakers voiced concern over water issues and a proposed boundary line for cultivation in the southern area

of the county, which local law enforcement and code enforcement officers felt was necessary to ensure access to any future growing sites. Susan Shackleton, owner of a medical cannabis cultivation operation in the county, spoke out against the proposed boundary line at the southern boundary of Paicines near the intersection of Highway 25 and Cienega Road. “When you enter into an industry where the laws aren’t all set and you have to anticipate where you think this industry is going to be and what the state and local governments are going to want from you, it’s difficult,” said Shackleton,

who later added that her company had met with the Sheriff ’s office and county code enforcement when her company first came to the county. “In 2015 we purchased property in the southern part of this county and now I’m hearing about an indiscriminate line possibly going through the county.” Resident Steve Becerra spoke on water use and shared wells. “I don’t see any language about shared wells in the ordinance,” Becerra said. “People are going to be using domestic, shared wells for their commercial cannabis operation.” The prospect of illegal

FRIDAY CROSSWORD

cannabis growing operations in a county that is still trying to grapple with the new post-prohibition landscape was the elephant in the room. “The purpose as we all have discussed is really to address the issues of illegal cultivation that are currently going on countywide,” said Pinnacle Strategy President and former Hollister Councilman Victor Gomez, who helped draft the ordinance alongside an ad hoc committee comprised of Supervisors Robert Rivas and Mark Medina, as well as stakeholders that include the San Benito County Sheriff ’s Office, the County

Administrative Office, County Counsel’s Office and the Resource Management Agency. “The nuisance is to the neighboring parcels, environmental impacts and so on,” said Gomez. California voters passed Proposition 64 last November, which legalized recreational cannabis throughout the state. The law makes it legal for adults 21 and over to buy, possess, use, share and transport up to one ounce of cannabis. The state is expected to have framework in place and start issuing permits by January 2018. In June, Governor Jerry Brown approved Senate Bill 94, which repealed the

Medical Cannabis Regulation and Safety Act. The Bill consolidated medical and recreational cannabis use under the Medicinal and Adult-Use Cannabis Regulation Safety Act. “There will be two separate license types, medical and adult use, but it will all be administered under the same program,” Gomez said. “You’ll likely see this ordinance a few times as the state starts adopting their rules and regulations and operating procedures. We will have to come back before you with some changes to this ordinance. Likely I’m thinking September, maybe October, with some additional changes.”

The new West Hills Water Treatment Plant, off Union Road by the San Justo Reservoir will begin operation mid-August, ahead of its anticipated opening at the end of the year. The $30 million plant will improve drinking

water to approximately 4,000 households in the city’s growing west and central regions and help recharge and preserve the groundwater basin. The new plant will treat higher-quality imported surface water from north of the state and blend it with local groundwater. The groundwater — up to now the region’s primary source of drinking water — is naturally higher in dissolved salts,

which gives the tap water a salty taste. This will change when surface water is blended-in. Once the new system comes online and the new water is phased into use, a blend of about 40/60 groundwaterto-surface-water-ratio will be achieved. Word of warning, as the new, higher-quality water is phased into the pipeline system it may dislodge mineral deposits that the old water left in the pipes.

It is possible that some homes or businesses may see a temporary change in the color of the tap water. Any change in water color is temporary - a normal effect of transitioning to the new water source - and is not a cause for alarm, according to the water district. Anyone noticing a color change can let the faucet run for a few minutes to flush out the deposits. The City of Hollister will also be flushing its distribution

pipelines to minimize effects and conducting increased water quality testing as these changes are made to improve the overall water quality. “The start-up of the new treatment plant is a big win for the people of our community,” said Ignacio Velazquez, Mayor of Hollister in a statement. “This new blend of water will have less dissolved salts, so the taste will be much improved.

Residents can consider getting rid of their water softeners, they can buy less bottled drinking water, and their appliances that use water should have less mineral buildup and last longer.” The new water treatment plant will serve the west and central areas of Hollister, other parts of the city and surrounding areas are already served by the Lessalt Water Treatment Plant.

FORWARD, THE LIGHT BRIGADE With bags in tow, members of the San Benito football team jog onto the field as a group as they prepare for practice. The Balers are set to kick off the 2017 season Aug. 25 at home against Sacred Heart Prep. FOOTBALL

earlier in the season,” Smith said. “Because later in the year when injuries occur, we’ll be in the heart of our schedule.” 2. Looking to reload, not rebuild. The Balers graduated all of the starters off the defensive line, which was one of the best units from last year’s team. Senior Eugene McBride is the only player who saw varsity action last year, and it was limited at that. Smith said as of last week he was high on Ivan Benitez and Jonathan Reyes, who both played on the junior varsity in 2016. Senior Andrew Dalton is looking for a big season after tearing his ACL last year. “Andrew has done a great job of getting himself ready to play our defensive end/stud linebacker position,” Smith said. “Defensive line is our greatest question mark, so we’re looking for some guys to really compete and stand out and take the positions.” The Balers had a 7-on-7 passing camp at Westmont High on

The San Benito High football team will enter the 2017 season with a lot of unknowns. From the state of Andy Hardin Stadium— which suffered major damage in last winter’s storms—to the loss of a dozen starters, the Haybalers have plenty of question marks. However, the constants—6 a.m. summer practices, players looking to prove themselves and dogged competition at numerous positions—means the Balers will never be that far off from contending for a league championship. Let’s tackle each point with the ferocity of a Bryan Smith-led practice. 1. Andy Hardin Stadium. The winter storms in late February laid waste to the announcer’s booth and the home side seats, which have been deemed not structurally sound for people to sit on. That means as of two weeks ago—and this is subject to change on a moment’s notice— the home fans will congregate

on what was formerly the visitor’s side. The visiting fans will now be on what was the home side, but portable bleachers will be inserted onto the track. “There will probably be a fenced off area between the players and the parents in that area,” said Smith, who will be entering his second season as coach. “It’s going to be tight quarters all around the stadium, but it’ll be up and running. We’ll re-evaluate the stadium situation again later this season.” Because of Aptos’ inclusion into the Monterey Bay League’s Gabilan Division starting in the upcoming season, the Balers’ schedule will be much different than in years past. San Benito opens the season at home against Sacred Heart Prep on Aug. 25 before its bye week— perhaps its earliest bye week in the last decade, if not more. “This will change things dramatically for us in terms of trying to get a lot of guys reps

GOLF

Jansen sees a gem at San Juan Oaks Club Emanuel Lee Sports Editor

Contributed photo

UP TO PAR San Juan Oaks Golf Club golf pro Mike Jansen is eager to get into the swing of things in his new role.

Mike Jansen looks at the San Juan Oaks Golf Club course and sees a hidden treasure, a golf haven that is waiting to be fully tapped. As the new Head PGA Golf Professional at San Juan Oaks, Jansen’s main priorities are twofold: To drive up the number of participants and provide excellent customer care. “Priority No. 1 is marketing,” said Jansen, whose first day at San Juan Oaks was July 5. “We’re trying to get people out here. We’ve got great facilities, and they’re kind of underutilized. We’ve got a great allgrass driving range, and

sometimes I look out and only a couple of people are out there. Priority No. 2 is taking care of all the customers, especially the ones who visit us regularly.” Jansen spent the last 13 years as Spyglass Hill Golf Club, the last three years as the First Assistant Golf Professional. He takes over for Scott Adams, who left his position at San Juan Oaks to become the new head pro at Poppy Hills in Monterey. “Poppy Hills is probably half a mile from Spyglass Hill, so it’s funny in a sense we traded locations,” said Jansen, a longtime Salinas resident who prepped at Palma High. Jansen loves the

camaraderie at San Juan Oaks, and he’s looking forward to building relationships with the regulars. He quickly found out the differences between working at Poppy Hills and San Juan Oaks are stark. At Spyglass Hill, Jansen rarely saw the same face in a given week, if ever. At San Juan Oaks, Jansen has already seen the same person two or three times in his first week of work at the Hollister golf course. “I’ll be able to get familiar with the members,” Jansen said. “I want to meet the regulars and have those deeper connections.” Like most PGA professionals, Jansen had a

plan to become a head pro. He didn’t see any head pro positions opening up at Spyglass Hill anytime soon, so he was more than happy to find the position at San Juan Oaks. “It’s kind of the ultimate goal, and to be able to do that now is big for me,” the 39-year-old Jansen said. A 2000 Fresno State graduate, Jansen didn’t play golf until he was 19 or 20. One day Jansen went to the course with a couple of his friends, and it didn’t take him long to get hooked on the game. Within the first six months, Jansen got a job at Dragon Fly Golf Club in ➝ Jansen, page 18

under center, but he’ll have to continue to perform well going forward. Brothers Adam and Robert Mendoza are two of the team’s top returners. Robert, who returns at free safety, has big-time ability in terms of anticipating plays and being in the right spot to make tackles. Adam is one of the more versatile players in the entire Central Coast Section. He’ll return kicks on both the punt and kickoff units, while also playing cornerback, wide receiver, tight end and running back. “Adam will do a little bit of everything because I think he can handle it,” Smith said. “He does a really good job of preparing himself, and we’re looking for some big things from him.” Even though San Benito returns only one starter on the offensive line, Smith is confident the unit will be rock solid again.

Fresno—“I was instantly bitten by the golf bug,” he said—and except for a brief stint selling insurance, Jansen has been working at a golf course the last 20 years. Every time something opened up, Jansen’s hard work put him in position to take the next step in his career. “I started as a part-time marshall, and the timing was always on my side where every two or three years the next step up the ladder opened up,” he said. “And I put myself in position for promotions.” Plenty of things drew Jansen to a career in golf; however, it was the atmosphere and the attitudes of the people that really resonated with him. “The one thing that drew me to golf in the beginning was everyone was coming out for fun

and leisure,” he said. “It’s fun to deal with people when they’re looking for a great time. When you’re dealing with people in that kind of a mood, working at a golf course is the best. It’s a great atmosphere.” Manny Freitas, the director of golf at San Juan Oaks , no doubt was impressed with Jansen’s infectious attitude and personality during the interview process. “He enjoys the excitement of a tournament day, the smile created during a lesson, and hopes to bring his years of experience and knowledge in a world class customer service environment to San Juan Oaks,” Freitas said in an email. Jansen knew early on he had to put in long hours on the course to set himself up for a head pro position. Over the years, he pored over various materials to deepen his knowledge of the game, along with spending countless hours on the range honing his swing. “I’m really into the game and study the game,” he said. “You put time into this, and good things will come out of it.”

small-town kid like myself, would be fighting in front of millions of fans.” Guerrero faced several challenges through his career, including a 2013 arrest for reportedly attempting to bring an unloaded gun onto a flight out of New York City. Thought the gun was licensed in California, authorities said at the time it still violated the city’s strict gun laws. Guerrero, who acknowledged he made a mistake by not being aware of New York’s gun laws, eventually pled guilty to disorderly conduct and had all gun charges dismissed. Back in 2008, Guerrero got into a legal dispute with his then promoter Goosen Tutor Promotions. Guerrero attempted to get out of his contract with Goosen Tutor in 2008 claiming he had not received some big money fights. The California State Athletic Commission ruled in Guerrero’s favor at the

end of 2008, but that was overturned by a Los Angeles Superior Court judge. Although the judge ruled Guerrero was let out of his contract by the CSAC because of “corruption, fraud, or other undue means,” The Ghost still split with Goosen and opted to fight under Golden Boy Promotions because the original contract had expired. It was under Golden Boy Promotions that Guerrero got his shot at Floyd Mayweather, Jr. in 2013, suffering just his second defeat of his professional career. Guerrero quickly rebounded with an unanimous decision win over Yoshihiro Kamegai, but Guerrero wasn’t the same fighter after that. After his win over Kamegai, Guerrero won just one more time in four matches and had lost his last three bouts.

gilroy—Less than 48 hours after suffering his first knockout loss of his career, Robert “The Ghost” Guerrero announced he is hanging up his boxing gloves for good. “I want to thank everyone, the fans included. I hope you guys appreciated the guts and glory I left in the ring. God bless you all,” Guerrero said in a statement. Guerrero officially brings to an end a career that spanned 16 years and featured world titles in four divisions, including the World IBF Featherweight Title twice. He finished with a record of 33 wins, 6 losses and one draw. The Gilroy native and current resident got his start at Bantamweight and made his way up the ranks to welterweight here he ends his career. Guerrero reflected on his time in the ring fondly, acknowledging that the road

over the years wasn’t always the easiest, but he made sure to always keep fighting. “A boxer’s career is a long and tough road. Many tears were shed, lots of blood, and tons of sweat. Many miles were traveled, thousands of rounds sparred, none were easy and nothing was ever given to me,” Guerrero said. “I earned everything I got the old fashion way. I never ducked anyone and fought the best fighters in the world. I fought my way through every obstacle to make sure my fans enjoyed every second, of every round, of my fights.” And through it all, Guerrero said he never forgot where he came from. “I’m a kid from a small town in Gilroy, California, who made it to the mountain top of the boxing world,” Guerrero said. “When I was a young kid growing up, I always believed in myself, but never in my wildest dreams would I have imagined a

Guerrero had been knocked down five times between the second and third rounds leading to the stoppage. Guerrero thanked everyone who had helped him on his journey, including his wife Casey and his father Ruben Guerrero who also acted as his trainer. He also had a special thank-you to his advisor Al Haymon. “Not only is Al Haymon a spectacular advisor,

he is a wonderful human being as well, a great man, and someone who cares,” Guerrero said. “In a sport where most managers, promoters, and trainers turn their back on a fighter, when they no longer can perform, or are no longer beneficial to their interest, Haymon stands tall. Love and loyalty is tough to find in the boxing game, but for any boxer looking for it, you don’t have to look far, reach out to Al Haymon.”

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 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.
