LOCAL SCENE Coins of kindness
The students at Sacred Heart Parish School in Hollister are on a mission to spread a whole lot of kindness through a creative campaign to recognize acts of goodness in the community. Whenever a student sees someone doing something kind or generous, the person will be thanked and given a kindness coin. Students will have ten coins to distribute with the goal to hand out one coin per month and then to share their story on Facebook. Coins are wooden tokens inscribed with a simple reminder, “Smiles, kindness and love can change the world.” Dr. Rachel McKenna, the school principal, explained the kindness coins give students the opportunity to connect with the community in a special way. “This is Sacred Heart’s way of leaving a kindness footprint that will hopefully spread further and further,” she said. Check in with Sacred Heart Parish School Hollister on Facebook to see where the 3,000 kindness coins end up.

Applications for property tax deferment for the current tax year are now available. California’s Property Tax Postponement Program allows homeowners who are seniors, are blind, or have a disability and who meet income, equity, and other requirements to postpone payment of property taxes on their residence. The program returned in 2016 after being suspended by the legislature for seven years due to lack of funding. In the first year of the renewed program, state homeowners were able to postpone more than $2.2 million in residential property taxes. Last year, San Benito County had no assessments postponed, but the program could stand to benefit up to 50 households, according to Mary Lou Andrade, county tax collector. “We have 20,000 bills so the amount would be a minute percentage of that number. In past years, before the Great Recession, we only had a dozen max that would postpone their taxes.” Funding for the program is limited and applications will be processed in the order they are received beginning October 1. Applications and program details can be found online or by calling (800) 952-5661.

County residents affected by winter flooding spoke during Tuesday’s San Benito County Board of Supervisors meeting as officials discussed how to pay to fix a broken levee system. Unrelenting rainfall last winter overwhelmed
a Pacheco Creek levee system, flooding country roads and creating havoc for residents along Lovers Lane, as well as parts of Shore Road and San Felipe Road. Before the bulk of the storms hit county inspection teams discovered on January 12 a large breach in the Pacheco Creek levee. Multiple breaches would occur during subsequent storms.
James Pulfer, from the Resource Management Agency, said there were two significant breaches to the levee system, a 104foot long breach and an 80-foot long breach. “The most significant breach is on the south side of the levee with the 104foot breach,” Pulfer said. “That breach directly flows across Lovers Lane.

GUITARS NOT GUNS GRADUATES TWENTY YOUTH
Contributor
The sweet sounds of youth taking part in something positive filled an upstairs room of the Veterans Memorial Building Saturday morning. Twenty students from the program, “Guitars Not Guns,” were strumming along to “La Bamba” with the instructors who had taught them for the past seven weeks. The guitars, which they used in class and at home, were now their’s to enjoy forever, a final gift from the program that provides free guitar lessons to kids aged 8 to 18. The eager strums was like sweet music to Mike Smith who piloted the program in San Benito County. San Benito County Supervisor Mark Medina, who was instrumental in helping the program get established in Hollister, said he feels

the program will open many doors for the kids. “I told these kids their first day, ‘this is something you’re going to take with you forever, you can play football or soccer until you're in your 40s, but I know 85-year-old people who are still playing guitar,’” he said. Smith said San Benito County Supervisors Jaime De La Cruz and Mark Medina each donated $500 from community-based allocation funds to help start the program. Hollister City Councilman Ray Friend purchased “Guitars Not Guns” T-shirts and provided the program with classroom space at the Veterans Memorial Building. “We couldn’t have done the class without Ray Friend’s support,” Smith said. Students and their families celebrated Saturday’s final session with a ceremony. Supervisors De La Cruz and Medina, as well as Councilman Friend, were present. All twenty students were rewarded with a certificate of completion and
T-shirts, then celebrated their achievements with pizza and cake. Veronica Lezama’s daughter Maya was one of the students to complete the class. “I’ve definitely seen an improvement in her and I’m so excited to see her continue with it,” Lezama said. Students proudly walked around with certificates in their hands and guitars on their backs. “Just look at the faces of these kids. They actually have a guitar,” De La Cruz said. De La Cruz hopes the program will continue to move forward and that this year’s class will be “a group of ambassadors for future classes.” Before another course is offered, though, Smith said there are plans to complete the documentation in order for San Benito County to become an official chapter of Guitars Not Guns. “Doing that will give us time to better plan future classes and fundraise for special events in 2018,” Smith said. The next session may start early next year.

Hollister City Manager Bill Avera was up early Saturday to meet with residents at city hall to discuss any of their concerns. “For me, it’s not about what they may take away from a meeting, it’s what I can take away from something like that,” Avera said. “I use that to learn their concerns.” Nine people came to the meeting, which lasted from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. Councilman Jim Gillio was also there to speak with residents. He said the early time accommodated people who are unable to make evening meetings. “People have mentioned to me that’s not always the best time for them,” said Gillio. “But it was the city manager’s idea to have this on Saturday.” The idea for the Saturday meeting stemmed from a Hollister City Council discussion on
growth management last month. Numerous residents had come out to voice their concerns about traffic congestion on highways and roads and lack of high skilled jobs in the region. Memory of the local economy-busting building moratorium is still fresh in the minds of many residents and they do not want a repeat of the disaster that impacted housing, commercial development and job growth. While the council hasn’t established any sort of growth management program yet, Gillio said he’s in favor of maintaining a steady growth rate. “I think what we need to have is a steady growth line,” Gillio said. “One of the things I think is lacking is community education. Since I’ve been on the council, my goal has been to research and educate those who are interested in learning what our growth is. That’s where I come in.” Gillio is a fan of using to city data to establish growth
management tools. “If we did have a growth control program, it would set the expectations of the community so they know how much is built and for developers as well. With residential growth comes commercial growth and we’re just beginning to realize the commercial growth and potential of new, fair paying jobs in our community,” he said. Avera said he enjoyed Saturday’s meeting and is considering holding similar ones in the future. “I might do a few more, hopefully some of the folks out there in Facebook world could attend,” Avera said. “Maybe Saturday morning isn’t the best time. I might try to do a few others to get people to come down and have a conversation.” Avera referred to himself as a person implementing policy and said he’s around to provide facts. “For me, I want to know what people are really thinking and I want people to come and learn how it works.”

Historical park a perfect venue for event ➝ Civil War, 1
Pinos park into a battle camp. While full battles would require acres of land and thousands of reenactors, the event at Tres Pinos featured two skirmishes a day with soldiers wielding cap guns and firing historical cannons. “In the future I am hoping to grow this event and bring in more vendors with period-correct crafts, which will bring in more
re-enactors and attract more spectators,” said Thompson. On Friday, the re-enactors entertained about 300 local elementary and junior high school students. “The re-enactors set up stations and demonstrated how to use the cannon. One gentleman talked about the abolitionists,” said Don Pidd, caretaker of the historical park.
As for the recent clashes and national conversation over Civil War monuments, Pidd said there is a difference between honoring what happened from what he considers the wrong perspective versus remembering what happened. “We want people to remember that this is the most horrendous war in our nation’s history. But out of it grew probably a stronger and greater country. You have to
understand the whole of what was going on,” said Pidd. Thompson said the re-enactment is a living history at a time when not much history is taught in schools. “They don’t have the budget to cover everything so having an event like this at the historical park makes sense,” said Thompson, who is also on the board of the San Benito Historical Society. “We
also like the public to know we have the historical buildings that have been transplanted here to the park and resurrected.” Confederate soldier Michael Gatley has been a Civil War reenactor for 11 years. “I love the history—I can go into all the details,” he said, his blue eyes shining. “Otherwise it is camping and playing with cap guns.”
Residents impacted by floods speak out ➝ Levee Repairs, 1
breach is such that if there were significant flows again the creek could reroute.” County supervisors considered three staff recommendations on how to fund critical levee repairs: the county and United States Department of Agriculture would enter in partnership and contribute $635,800 and $413,100 respectively, the county would go it alone and fund the whole project or there would be a no-cost option, which meant no repairs are made. The latter, no-build alternative, spared the county liability, but was not popular with the board. An agreement with the USDA could stick the county with having to operate and maintain the levee system in perpetuity. Operation and maintenance of the levee system, which runs through multiple private properties, is estimated between $10,000 to $15,000 annually. Assuming no delays, repairs could begin in December and finish two months later in February. But if weather similar to last winter’s is on the horizon, it could restrict work and could result in an extended construction timeline. The second option, where the county is the lone funder, offers a quicker turnaround at a higher cost.
In this scenario, work on the repairs would begin in October and conclude around December, barring bad weather. The county would have to pay an estimated $491,500, but by being the sole funder, it would free the county from constraints associated with federal and state funding programs including the USDA agreement, according to staff. Mahassa Altafi, a Dara Farms property owner on Lovers Lane, addressed the issue of private property and liability. “First and foremost, it’s not a private issue it’s a public issue,” Altafi said. “The county is here to serve the public. It’s affected not just my property, but the roads and people’s lives in other areas. It’s not a private issue and to say that is absurd. It’s affecting the public and I feel like the county should be responsible. To even have the possibility of not fixing the levee is atrocious.” Supervisor Mark Medina was quick to denounce the no-build alternative. “If we go the last route we’re going to be doing the same thing over and over again,” Medina said. “The problem we have is if no one fixes these levees, what’s going to happen next year when it rains again? It’s going to flood. We’re going to be in the same boat. We’re going to spend a lot of
money, a lot of time, a lot of county resources when we’re not taking care of the problem. As elected officials, we do need to make decisions.” Michele Schroeder, a resident and property owner on Lovers Lane, encouraged the board to reject the no-build option and spoke about the flooding last winter. “The quality of life there has been impacted,” Schroeder said. “The road was inundated, it basically cut Lovers Lane in half.” She said something needed to be done to get through the bureaucratic red tape. “We need help. Nobody knows how to organize this. There’s not a lot of people who remember how the Pacheco Stormwater District worked. We need help with that. I think people are interested in solving the problem.” Years ago, the Pacheco Stormwater District, a board composed of landowners around the Pacheco Creek, oversaw the private levee system, but has been inactive for some time. “It’s important to me to see the landowners participate and re-energize that district board,” Supervisor Jerry Muenzer said. Board Chairman Jaime De La Cruz said he supported fixing
the levees, but wanted to see participation from affected residents, citing a risk factor with no future guarantees. “We definitely don’t want to see any of the homeowners suffer from those levees if it’s going to happen again, but we need to ensure that this discussion of public and private is discussed in terms of risk and liabilities,” De La Cruz said. “That’s the number one thing.” Supervisor Robert Rivas advocated fixing the levee, but said the county needed to work within its means and be fiscally responsible. He encouraged staff to engage with affected residents. “I certainly won’t approve moving forward with any option unless we’re indemnified,” Rivas said. “These levees aren’t county owned or public property. That’s the only way I move forward.” Resident Ken Perry said he spent $50,000 of his money to fix issues with water coming through a levee breach on his property. “I have one breach on my property and above me there’s two or three other breaches,” Perry said. “Water comes through and has damaged everything over there. I think it would be a shame if this board does not find a way to fix this.”
Lovers Lane resident Candice Hooper told supervisors that if the county didn’t spend money to fix the levee they’d end up spending it in emergency services. “Fix the levee and we’ll get the rest done, but we’re running out of time because the rains are coming,” Hooper said. “We’re going to be in a world of hurt if we get hit again and it’s going to cost this county a heck of a lot more than you’re quoting.” After discussions, Rivas made a motion to not choose a funding option, but to contact impacted residents about indemnification to exclude the county from potential liability. “I don’t know how I can make a decision today,” Rivas said. “The only way I could approve going forward with the county option is if I have assurances the county is not going to be sued if we take responsibility for cleaning out those levees.” The motion passed 3-1 with Supervisor Medina dissenting. Supervisor Anthony Botelho recused himself from the discussion and vote because he owns property on San Felipe Road. Chairman De La Cruz said he’d call a special meeting Tuesday if necessary to help speed the process along.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK
The 20th congressional district, which includes San Benito County, is home to an estimated 20,000 Dreamers, undocumented individuals who were brought to the U.S. as children. California is home to 1 in 4 recipients of DACA, a program that gives eligible Dreamers a chance to work legally without fear of deportation. President Trump stated he would stop the DACA program in six months. What should government do to address this issue? Cesar Flores Unfortunately the actions of the current administration are leaving the needs of agriculture unmet. Field workers are needed. Fear and distrust is at a high level in our communities. Parents are afraid to send their children to school. This is not what this country is about. Keith Snow I feel that it is unconstitutional and unjustified. We need to protect the people. They have worked hard and deserve the highest education just as anyone else. Lots of the Mexican community work in the farms and pick the food that we eat. They deserve to be here and be treated with equality. The program should stay intact. Mr. Barack Obama was a great president and did right by the people, rich or poor, no matter ethnicity. He represented the people with respect. Ruben Anthony Ask the parents to step forward for one. Stop putting cameras on college students crying about how it wasn’t their choice to come here and put the cameras on the ones who did make the choice. By the way, I don’t support mass deportation because it’s not economical. Show people the numbers and play on their concerns for the economy instead of trying to play on their emotions. Richard Place Pass a legal law so it can be signed by the President. The current executive order was unconstitutional. Both parties should do their job.
Nants Foley I am not in favor of rescinding DACA and urge everyone to write and call their congress representatives to voice their support of this program. Mary Zanger In the event that Trump rescinds DACA, the Hollister City Council and the San Benito County Board of Supervisors should declare the city and county sanctuaries. Our public schools already have budget cuts and will be unable to teach American values like inclusivity and democracy when our foundational values are under attack. Trump’s action would gag the whole California economy since Mexican immigrants anchor the agricultural and main sector of the economy. Governor Brown should declare the whole state a sanctuary because an illtempered spiteful attack on innocent children is an attack on all of us.
The Question of the Week was distributed in an email and posted on the Hollister Free Lance Facebook page on Monday, September 11. Thank you to all who contributed comments.
COMMENTS Public weighs in on Hollister parks Why has the grass been dead at the brand new park at the west end of Apricot since soon after it opened months ago? No trash cans, no dog poo bags. Does the city even know the park is there?
Hey San Benito County. Have you ever seen the way people use the fountain area at Levi Plaza in San Francisco. Plenty of security and a really cool fountain. The 400 block would support that and so much more. I'm sure there are flagship models from many organizations around the area. I believe Hollister can be anything it wants. Use your imagination people! Cee Dias

It is not unusual for my nine-year-old daughter and I to talk politics. Even so, I was surprised when last Sunday, while sitting at the kitchen table, Lola asked, “So, what is going on with immigration?” The NPR evening news program played on low volume and political commentators discussed President Trump’s appeal to Congress to act on DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals), the immigration program that gives eligible undocumented individuals brought to the United States as children the ability to work legally, without fear of deportation. I started to explain the intricacies of U.S. immigration policy when I was interrupted. “But, aren’t I an immigrant? I was born in England,” she pointed out, hugging her knees to her chest. “Well, you are what they call a “naturalized citizen” because I am your mom and I was born in the United States,” I replied. She just squinted. “Daddy is an immigrant because he’s from England,” she stated. “Yes, that is true.” “And when you were in England, you were an immigrant,” she said. “Yes, also true.” “Are we in danger?” she asked. The night Donald Trump was elected to the nation’s highest office, my thoughts turned to a group of high school and college students from Watsonville I had interviewed three years previously. All were undocumented. One of them had not known her status until she was a junior in high school. All were full of dreams for their future. One wanted to become an oceanographer, another a nurse. Their stories were familiar. Each contained a mix of struggle, success and hope. A young woman studying at the local community college had a child and was trying to juggle school, parenting and a job. Not having access to financial aid, she had to work more and extend her college program longer than she wanted, but she was happy and thanks to the recent passage of the California Dream Act, which gives eligible undocumented students access to Cal Grants and community college fee waivers, she felt there was relief on the horizon. I asked all these Dreamers if they would apply to DACA, a program President Barack Obama enacted through Executive Order after Congress failed to pass comprehensive immigration reform and address the biggest elephant in the room-the estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants living in the country. Most said they had already or would apply in the near future. Students in Dreamer Clubs at local high schools trained with immigration advocates to help process DACA applications at community workshops. It was a hopeful time. On election night, I remembered those young women-brave, eager, ambitious and every bit as American as my own foreign-born daughter. I thought of them again as I sat with Lola and thought of how to assuage her childish fear. “No, we are not in danger,” I said and quickly moved onto another subject.

Youth Alliance honors Hollister locals CHANGEMAKER CELEBRATION IS ON SATURDAY Staff Report
Youth Alliance
Retired San Benito County Judge Tom Breen and San Benito High School student Belen Andrade will be honored at Saturday’s Youth Alliance Change Maker gala in Gilroy. “One of the goals of our annual event is to highlight members of the community who would normally not be recognized,” said Jose Cuellar, director of operations at Youth Alliance. “We want them to be encouraged to continue the work they do and be the people they are.” The gala at Gilroy Gardens will include dinner, dancing, live and silent auction, a cocktail reception and live music from The Funky Sound Experiment. “[Youth Alliance] is pleased to have Tom accept the award as the 2017 Change Maker,” Executive Director Diane Ortiz said. “His years of humble and selfless service to our community are an inspiration to many.” Judge Breen was appointed to the San Benito County Superior
Court in 1980 and served until he retired in 2000. He served on the Youth Alliance Board of Directors for more than 20 years, the Gavilan College Board of Trustees for 16 years and the boards of the San Benito Arts Council and the Hollister Downtown Association. San Benito High School student Belen Andrade will be given the 2017 Youth Inspiration Award for her volunteer work with Youth Alliance’s Health Squad Diabetes Prevention Program, Kids at the Park and community events. She’s been involved with the Youth Alliance since 7th grade. “Belen is a very nice girl, always willing to help out in any way she can,” Neighborhood Coordinator Dolores Villalon said. Andrade has helped Villalon with various programming, including spring cleanups in the community and the diabetes prevention program where she helped organize youth activities and field trips. “Not only is she a great volunteer in the community through our program, she is also doing something on her own and tutors a little boy,” Villalon said. “She is a great student and has a lot of dreams. She would love

Saturday. The fundraising event supports programming in San Benito and Santa Clara Counties. to make changes to things she doesn’t agree on, but wants to get her education first.” Andrade is also a great role model to her younger sister, said Villalon. “She’s a great motivation for her and always makes sure she does her homework.” Money raised at the event will go to support Youth Alliance programs such as the Familia program,
which works with teen moms and dads to give them coping mechanisms to help them adjust to their new reality, said Cuellar, and the Joven Noble program that encourages and teaches youth to make beneficial life choices. “Our youth inspiration award last year was given to a participant in this program,” Cuellar said. “He was at the end of his rope when he joined the group and turned
everything around. He has since graduated high school and is now enrolled in Gavilan.” The Youth Alliance was founded in 1995 as a grassroots movement that worked to provide resources for local youth. Since it’s formation, the group has grown to serve over 6,500 children and families annually in the underserved areas of San Benito County and Santa Clara County.
OBITUARIES RICHARD HARLAN BREM
WARREN RICHARD BLAKLEY
July 12, 1930 - September 4, 2017
January 13, 1931 - September 11, 2017
If you would like to celebrate his life, get your family together, tell some stories and jokes, and have some cocktails.
A Memorial Service and Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, September 16, 2017 at 10:00am at the Morgan Hill Presbyterian Church.
O
ur Father, Richard Harlan “Dick” Brem passed away peacefully in Turlock, after a prolonged illness. Dad was born in Gilroy to Richard and Mae Brem on July 12, 1930. Legend has it that he was one of the first babies born at Wheeler Hospital and the first of three generations of Brems born there.
According to Dad, he had a great childhood. He spent most of his time hunting, fishing and trying to bend as many rules as possible. He graduated from Gilroy High School and participated in football and track. He was also in student government and was class vice president by virtue of a stuffed ballot box. Dad enlisted in the Air Force and was deployed to the Korean conflict. He was stationed in Tokyo and Korea before being shipped home with cancer, which he was able to beat. After recuperating, he was stationed at Hamilton Field and had the great pleasure of taking the base commander on hunting trips to the Dowdy Ranch. After a brief courtship, Dad married Shirley Phillips, in Las Vegas on November 13, 1953. A telegram sent to the family said “Married 8:30 inside alter very happy = Shirley and Dick.” That started a journey of almost 64 years, three children and too many moves to count. Dad had several careers that ranged from farmer, to cannery field man, to western store owner, to carpet layer, to specially gourmet food store owner. Finally, Dad and Mom settled into making and selling western-themed crafts. They enjoyed going to shows throughout California, not so much for the money, but to establish and maintain friendships. Dad is survived by his wife, Shirley, who cared for him until the end. He is also survived by his children, Mike (Tina), Nancy (Nick) and Jim (Pam). He is also survived by his grandchildren, Jay (Laura), Jeff (Becky), Ryan, Kyle and Tyson. He also had five great grandchildren, Cali, Jack, Layne, Everett and Clark. Dad is also survived by his brother Glenn (Muriel) and many nieces, nephews and cousins. In keeping with Dad’s wishes, there will be no services.

DACA decision prompts local reaction SCHOOL HEADS OFFER COMPREHENSIVE STUDENT SUPPORT Nicholas Preciado Reporter
status. We have many resources and will work to ensure that students get whatever support we are able to provide.” Cisneros said she’s received an increase in phone calls and emails from faculty and high school counselors who are confused about the DACA changes and how to help their students. Prior to the Trump administration’s announcement that DACA would end in six months, Gavilan College formed a Dreamers task force at the start of 2017 to build “institutional” support for undocumented students on campus. “Along with this effort our Board of Trustees, the Academic Senate and California School Employees Association passed resolutions in support of undocumented students,” Cisneros said. “We also held a five-hour training and launched a dedicated website to build capacity within our staff and faculty to be able to support the unique needs of our undocumented students.” The workforce developed a Dreamers resource guide in both English and Spanish. The school held a DACA renewal workshop Thursday at the Gilroy campus and has partnered with the Catholic Charities of Santa Clara to host the workshops once a month since July. “It is important to see Gavilan step-up and speak out this way because it shows our connection and understanding to the issues that matter to our students and community,” Cisneros said. “We are a Hispanic serving institution who is truly connected to the issues impacting our community.” In a statement to parents, students and staff, San Benito High School District Superintendent Shawn Tennenbaum emphasized the district’s policy of nondisclosure.

President Donald Trump’s decision last week to eliminate the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program sparked fear and fury across the nation, but Hollister institutions stood united. “The recent announcement heightened the deep sense of responsibility many of us at the college feel towards helping students achieve their educational goals despite the changes in the DACA program,” said Carina Cisneros, associate dean of EOPS and CalWORKS at Gavilan College. “Unfortunately, we are confronting great fear, frustration and a sense of hopelessness amongst students who were just starting their second week of classes in their fall semester.” The DACA program, which President Obama enacted with an executive order in 2012, enables young undocumented immigrants brought into the United States as children to continue to live, work and learn in the country. Over 200,000 young people in California are protected under the DACA program. There is an estimated 840,000 total recipients in the country. “Over the next six months, we hope that Congress does what is needed to ensure that those who came here as children, and grew up here, are able to stay, contribute, and fully participate,” said Dr. Kathleen Rose, the college president in a statement to students and staff last week. “Gavilan College stands with these students, their friends and families, and remains committed to serving all students, regardless of immigration
WELCOME HERE Gavilan College officials send a strong message to students, staff and families
that immigrant students are welcome at the community college that serves many San Benito County and south Santa Clara County students. “The San Benito High School District has great concern and empathy for any student or family that may be affected by this policy change,” Tennenbaum said. “All children are welcome in our school, and this includes DACA students. The district will not discriminate against undocumented students and will not request information regarding immigration status or in any way exclude students based on actual or perceived citizenship or immigration status. The district will continue to follow federal and state law in regards to protecting confidential student records and other information indicating immigrant or citizenship status, and such information

will not be released except as required by law.” The high school, which enrolls about 3,000 students, will offer support and counseling to students affected by the decision to eliminate DACA, said Tennenbaum. Congressman Jimmy Panetta held a roundtable discussion with 30 DACA recipients last Saturday at Hartnell College in Salinas. An estimated 20,000 Dreamers live within California’s 20th congressional district. “The Dreamers I met with told me about their families, their lives, and their hard work to be a part of and positively contribute to our community,” Panetta said in a statement after the meeting, which
2017
was not open to the media. “Their parents took great risks to bring them here to give them a better life. These young men and women are well aware of their obligation to give back to the country that gave them so much opportunity. In order to fulfill that responsibility, each Dreamer works hard to succeed in school, at work, for their families and our community. Now, they are threatened with potentially being forced to leave the only country that they are so proud to call home. Democrats and Republicans in Congress must work together to pass legislation that provides Dreamers throughout our community and country the opportunity to fulfill the American Dream.”

Locals continue push for public pool GROUP WANTS PORTION OF IMPACT FEES TO FUND HOLLISTER AQUATIC CENTER AT SBHS Nicholas Preciado Reporter
“I’ve talked to many of you before, but the city, county and the community residents really do need a safe place to learn to swim and do need recreational activities,” Tennenbaum said. “Our students, student athletes and the rest of the community will benefit greatly from this project.” Should funding for a community aquatics center fall through, the district would use the space for other school needs, said Tennenbaum. Shutts said having both the school and recreation components at the same location would draw crowds. “Money coming in from revenues would offset the maintenance and you’ll have something that’s selfsustaining for not only the high school but the recreation side,” Shutts said. “If you put a recreation component out in the regional park and expect it to stand on its own and make money, it’s not going to happen. But if you combine it with the aquatic center as it’s being designed right now, then that facility can be and will be self-sustaining.”
Hollister Vice Mayor Karson Klauer said he was willing to look at funding through impact fees, but said he did not see how the city could fund it as a standalone concept. He called it a chicken-andegg scenario. “What comes first, the community money or the government money?” Klauer asked. “I don’t know, but I don’t see either jumping out right now to make it happen.” Hollister Mayor Ignacio Velazquez said the city should move forward with some sort of study to examine funding the proposed aquatic center with impact fees, possibly when the city updates its parks facility master plan. “If we don’t commit to something, this will never happen,” Velazquez said. County Supervisor Jerry Muenzer was less enthusiastic about the project. “I’ve said this several times: before this aquatic center ever gets any support from me I need to see the private sector putting money toward it as was mentioned on the podium,”
Robert Eliason
Summer may be coming to a close, but talk continues about the need for a public pool in Hollister and how it should be funded. “What we’re here for today is to ask the city and county to include in their impact fees monies for a recreational portion of the aquatic center that the high school has generously put into their preliminary plans for the pool area,” said Jud Shutts, chief operations officer for Hollister for Aquatics, a local group advocating for a public swimming facility to representatives from Hollister, San Juan Bautista and San Benito County at last week’s intergovernmental committee meeting. “We’re basically asking you to commit impact fees—monies—to be provided for the recreational component of the aquatic center.” Located at San Benito High School, the
community aquatic center would tie-in with the school’s plan to install two new pools—one 50 meters, the other 25 yards. Construction is expected to begin later this year. “We have set aside in the master plan for Measure U and state matching fund projects a certain portion for the recreation pool component,” said Shawn Tennenbaum, the high school superintendent. “The board has endorsed that and taken action. They have that vision. Realistically, it sits with the city and the county and the agencies to make a determination if there is that commitment to move forward.” The final bill for a community aquatic center with slides, lazy river, splash pad and other amusements at the high school has varied since Shutts first presented the idea earlier this year in front of the same committee. Construction costs are estimated to be $6 million. The center would be funded by the City of Hollister and San Benito County. Hollister for Aquatics would operate the center.
COOL RUNNINGS A splash pad like the one at
Valley View Park is floated for a local aquatic center.
Muenzer said. “There has to be a component from the private sector.” Muenzer suggested the cost could be split in thirds with Hollister, San Benito County and the private sector paying equal portions. Shutts explained that Hollister for Aquatics was working with the Community Foundation of San Benito County and
reaching out to private parties. “If the commitment’s not there from the community now, the commitment won’t be there in two years or whatever time frame,” Muenzer said. “The dollars have to keep coming in to maintain this thing. To get it built is one thing but maintaining on a long-term basis is something totally different.”
Nash Road bypass moves closer to reality BOARD OF SUPERVISORS MAKE PROGRESS ON ROADS PROJECT Nicholas Preciado Reporter
The San Benito County Board of Supervisors Tuesday took one step closer to the creation of the Nash Road bypass. Supervisors approved a $153,140 contract with Santa Cruz-based Mesiti-Miller Engineering for design services related to the bypass. The contract defines the period of work from September 12 through December 31, 2018. The board previously approved a contract last year with the engineering firm to prepare a preliminary
design for the Regional Park access road. The project is estimated to have a total cost of $1.25 million with a goal of completing the road by August of next year. In November 2016, the Hollister City Council, San Benito County Board of Supervisors and the San Benito High School District approved an interagency agreement relating to the closure of a busy portion of Nash Road near the high school. The bypass road needs to be constructed and opened before the closure goes into effect. Supervisors established job classifications and a salary range for a Permit Technician at the Resource Management Agency.
The Permit Technician will provide permit requirements, building codes, land use regulations, inspection procedures, review of plans and documents, codes and more. The new position is critical to the agency as it is currently understaffed. Salary range will be set from $18.31 an hour to $24.55 an hour. According to the staff report, county officials met with the SEIU Local 521 union to discuss the job description on September 6. The county incorporated changes and got verbal approval from union on the same date. The San Benito County Public Health Services Division received approval Tuesday to conduct their
annual mass influenza vaccination clinic for county residents. The clinic will open Thursday, October 26 at the Veteran’s Memorial Building at 649 San Benito Street in Hollister. According to the staff report, the flu clinic has been an annual event since the 2009 H1N1 swine flu outbreak. The public health services division offices will close to the public so that all staff can work the flu clinic. The San Benito County Free Library will bring the bookmobile to the San Benito County Fair, which takes places at Bolado Park from September 28 to October 1. The staff report said the
county fair offers a valuable outreach opportunity for the library. There will be no charge for having the bookmobile out at the fair. County supervisors approved multiple vehicle purchases at their Tuesday meeting. The San Benito County Sheriff’s Office was authorized to purchase two vehicles for law enforcement operations and services. Two vehicles were purchased for the sheriff: a 2018 RAM Special Service Vehicle 4x4 1500 Crew Cab for $34,989.98 and a covert vehicle with an undisclosed make, model and year for $27,006.55. The office does not currently have fleet vehicles considered truly covert.

BRINGING IT Former Balers standout Darin Gillies is one of the top relievers in the Seattle Mariners minor league organization. He had a solid season at Double-A Arkansas, earning an invite to play in the upcoming Arizona Fall League.
PRO BASEBALL
On the fast track FORMER BALERS STANDOUT DARIN GILLIES TURNING HEADS IN MINORS emanuel lee Sports Editor
Ever since the Seattle Mariners selected Darin Gillies in the 10th round of the 2015 Major League Baseball Draft, the former San Benito High standout has made tremendous progress, so much so that scouts and insiders are using the term that all prospects want to hear next to their name: fast track. That’s baseball lingo for a player who is rapidly advancing through
the minor leagues en route to the majors. It’s also a term that Gillies finds rather amusing. “I’ve always found that fast track comment funny because the only way you get fast tracked is by taking each day slowly and one day at a time,” he said. “It’s a cliché, but the regular season is so long that it tests your ability to slow the game down. You need to attack each day and get the most out of yourself every single day so that in the long run you will get projected into that fast track conversation.” Gillies is spending his off-season in Arizona preparing for the Arizona Fall League (AFL), of
which he received an invitation after a strong season playing for the Arkansas Travelers, the Double-A affiliate of the Mariners. Gillies was one of only two players on the Arkansas roster who received an invite to the Arizona Fall League. Players who are selected to play in the AFL are considered the top prospects of their respective teams, something that Gillies doesn’t take lightly. “It’s obviously a big opportunity to showcase my abilities, not only to the Seattle Mariners, but to the other 29 teams in the majors,” he said. “My main focus is to show our parent club the
Seattle Mariners I’m ready to take the next step in my career, and that I can be a viable asset to a major league team one day.” Gillies, of course, plans on playing in the majors one day; however, he knows that thinking too much about the future will affect him negatively when it comes to the present. “My mindset is not to worry about making the majors,” he said. “I know if I’m doing my job on the field, helping my team win and going about my business the right way, somebody will take notice and those things will work out the way they’re supposed to.” ➝ Gillies, page 18

Shantay Tamez knows how to kick it SAN BENITO HIGH SENIOR EARNS A SCHOLARSHIP TO CSU DOMINGUEZ emanuel lee Sports Editor
In the last couple of years playing for the Santa Clara Sporting traveling soccer program, Shantay Tamez had to leave her home in Hollister around 4 p.m. to practice with the club at its facility adjacent to Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara from 7:45 to 10, three days a week. Tamez would get home at 11 p.m., making for some very long days. “Some nights I’m staying up until 1 (a.m.) to get all my homework done,” the San Benito High senior said. “It gets crazy
sometimes just being so busy, but you just have to do it.” Tamez’s hard work paid off in a huge way when she made a verbal commitment on Aug. 22 to play for Cal State University Dominguez Hills, a Division II program. Tamez followed former Balers standout Kayla King as the only two girls soccer players at the school in the last five years to earn an athletic scholarship straight out of high school into a fouryear program. “I finally get to be in college and play the sport I love,” said Tamez, who was an all-Monterey Bay League Gabilan Division First Team selection a ➝ Tamez, page 17

Gio Giannotta loves putting an opposing lineman or linebacker flat on their back. The senior tight end plays a vital role on the team, because the tight end position in the Haybalers run-oriented offense involves more blocking than receiving. And that’s just fine with Giannotta, even though he would love nothing more than to haul in a throw from quarterback Slade Wilson. “That is the best feeling ever,” he said. “But I know I have to improve my routes and catching percentage to get more balls thrown my way.” ➝ Football, page 17

quarterback, dive back and pitch back, so it’ll be a completely different game plan compared to Los Gatos.” That’s because Los Gatos went to the air against San Benito, with Wildcats QB Robert Nelson completing 16 of 33 passes for 245 yards. San Benito controlled things in the first half, running out to a 14-0 lead before extending the advantage to 21-0 after Matt Ramon’s 21-yard touchdown run with 5 minutes, 14 seconds left in the third quarter. But the Wildcats roared back for three unanswered TDs, the last with 5:23 left. Instead of going for the conventional point-after conversion, Los Gatos went for two. Nelson found an open player in the end zone, but the receiver dropped the ball in the end zone. The Balers tried to put the game on ice on the ensuing drive, but their drive stalled when Jonny Gonzalez was stopped short on a fourth and four
play from the Wildcats’ 22 yard line with 2:50 left. Los Gatos, which had only 87 yards at halftime but finished with 271 in the final two quarters, seemed prime to complete the comeback. Nelson completed a 19-yard pass on the first play from scrimmage, marching Los Gatos to the 50-yard line with 1:50 left. But three consecutive incompletions— two throws that were off the mark and a dropped pass—preserved the San Benito victory. Gonzalez rushed for 131 yards on 22 carries, both career-high marks, while Ramon (73 yards on nine carries) and Eric Green (10 rushes for 47 yards) also provided tough running, rarely going down on first contact. “(Offensive line coach Chris Cameron) says it’s a game of inches, and the inches were in our favor this time,” Gonzalez said. “Another couple of inches and we could’ve lost. We
felt like we out-conditioned them. It’s nice to get a win over a great, proud program, but we have to get better.” Gonzalez busted off a spectacular 46-yard run midway through the second quarter, one in which he made a couple of nifty cuts en route to the left sideline. “I had a great spring on the end block, cut inside and moved outside,” Gonzalez said. “I had no idea what I was going to do (in the open field), so I started going and gave it my best effort.” Wilson had another solid game, committing no turnovers and completing two passes for 55 yards. He also made some good decisions on the option, and has evolved into a QB who knows his team and the offense. Smith also praised Wilson’s play, noting the QB plays a critical role in reducing the team’s turnover count. San Benito

Giannotta said the couple of passes he’s dropped this season serves as a motivator to improve daily. “Individually and as a team, you can never be satisfied,” he said. “You always have to strive to be better.” Giannotta had a 34-yard touchdown reception in the Balers’ 21-20 win over Los Gatos last week, a solid victory entering Friday’s road game against Wilcox of Santa Clara. Wilcox comes in with a 0-2 record, with both losses coming to strong teams in Monterey Trail of Elk Grove and Central Coast Section powerhouse Valley Christian. Balers coach Bryan Smith said after the Los Gatos game that Wilcox will present plenty of challenges, its record notwithstanding. “Wilcox runs the option, so we’ll have to play some sound and responsible defensive football,” he said. “We’ll have to make sure to take care of the

has zero turnovers—that’s right, zero—turnovers in its first two games, something that hasn’t been done in a long time. Smith said the team practices ball security drills for up to 10 minutes in every practice, and it’s obviously having a great effect this season. Smith also noted the play of the offensive line and linebacker Ethan King, who made plays all over the field. “Our guys showed a lot of heart and a lot of fight,” Smith said. “I’m
extremely proud of them for their effort.” Giannotta is known as a max-effort type of player. At 6-foot-1 and 190 pounds, Giannotta spends most of his time blocking linebackers. But he also helps his tackles at times against defensive ends. Giannotta said blocking alongside teammates Aidan Pung, Nate Sanchez, Diego Ramirez, Blaze McShane and Daniel Pasillas has been a rewarding experience, as they all play a vital role.
Balers senior Shantay Tamez receives scholarship to play at CSU Dominguez Hills From page 16 year ago. “This is another step closer to the main dream of becoming a pro.” Tamez said she received 10 other athletic scholarship offers, including one from a Division I program in Texas. However, the offer from CSU Dominguez Hills was too good to pass up. “I really like the diversity of the college, education and atmosphere,” she said. “It’s also closer to home, and I would get full playing time as
a freshman. I get to play and won’t lose any touches during my freshman year. They’re also paying for my school, and it’s hard to beat that.” Tamez is versatile enough to play multiple positions at the high school and club level, including center back, her likely position in college. Strong on the ball and lethal with both legs, Tamez gained the attention of numerous college coaches when she played in several showcase tournaments with
the Santa Clara Sporting 99 Green Team. It’s a powerhouse squad that is ranked second in the state and third in the nation in the 18-andunder age division. Adept at utilizing both feet, Tamez unleashes powerful and accurate shots, and is capable of scoring from 40 yards out. “I can give a teammate a ball on her foot, or I’ll put the ball directly into the back of the net from 35 to 40 yards out,” she said. Tamez comes from a soccer family—“When
we’re on the road, all we do is talk about soccer non-stop,” she said— which gave her inspiration to play the sport at an early age. Tamez’s parents, Rachel and A.J., both played soccer in their teenage years. Shantay’s two younger sisters, Lexi and Shaelyn, are also athletic. Lexi plays volleyball and Shaelyn—who is a seventh grader at Spring Grove—has already shown flashes of serious potential on the pitch. “I’m proud of both of

Own It.
my sisters,” Shantay said. “Lexi has grown out of soccer and is now into volleyball. And Shaelyn at her age is doing some amazing things at a level that I wasn’t doing when I was her age.” When she was 6 years old, Tamez remembers watching pro soccer players and wanting to be just like them. But A.J. continues to be her most influential role model. “I wear No. 5 just because of him,” Tamez
said. “He’s my everything, my rock. He knows a lot about the different styles of the game, and he was an aggressive player. He also gives me great advice about doing certain things when I’m playing.” The CSU Dominguez Hills coaching staff has watched Tamez in action several times, mostly at showcases in Davis and the power-packed Surf Cup in San Diego. Skilled and hard working, Tamez’s goal is to constantly improve.

Gillies receives invite to play in Arizona Fall League From page 16
strengths and not try to be a power pitcher—because he isn’t one. “The majority of what I learn is being true to myself and sticking to my strengths,” he said. “As a relief pitcher, a lot of guys want to chase 100 mph these days. There’s a place for everyone at the major league level as long as you do well.” One of the biggest adjustments Gillies had to make revolved around opposing hitters. Whereas in Single-A Gillies could work around certain spots in the lineup, that’s not the case at the Double-A level. It’s the Double-AA level where the majority of the cream of the MLB prospects reside. “The lineups are a lot more full compared to
A-ball,” Gillies said. “There are really good hitters up and down the lineup, where anyone from the one through nine hitters can hurt you at any time. You have to treat every guy like a four hitter, and you have to go out there and attack them with your stuff.” Gillies will never blow away hitters with a midto high 90s mph fastball; however, he’s got great command and knows how to pitch, as he is able to use different combinations in different situations. Gillies always has a plan of attack when he’s on the mound, and a lot of that involves attacking the strike zone early in the count so he could get ahead of hitters and get them into low percentage hitting counts. The AFL team workouts
begin on Oct. 8, and the season runs through Nov. 18. The AFL has long been known as a stepping stone for prospects to make the jump to the majors. Every MLB roster is littered with players who competed in the AFL. “I’m excited for this opportunity, and it’s something I’m looking forward to,” he said. “I am very aware of the Arizona Fall League and that players have gone through here and made it to the majors. At the same time, this game has taught me not to expect anything.” Balers coach Billy Aviles said Gillies is the type of person who remembers his roots. Gillies who still has family members in Hollister, credited the people and place of his

The 6-foot-4, 220-pound Gillies has had a relatively smooth path since he turned pro. The Mariners assigned him to their short-season club in Everett after the 2015 Draft. In 2016, Gillies split his time with two clubs, in Clinton and Bakersfield. His then earned a promotion to Double-A Arkansas for this season, which ended a couple of weeks ago. Gillies had to make some adjustments at the DoubleA level, but he had a rather seamless transition from Single-A. Gillies went 3-3 with a 3.32 ERA, pitching 59 2/3 innings and allowing 52 hits while going 3 for 3 in save opportunities. Opponents hit just .231 against Gillies, who has learned to pitch to his

upbringing as major reasons why he’s grown into a high character person and bona-fide MLB prospect. “There were so many
people in Hollister who were instrumental in my development and helped me get to where I am today,” Gillies said.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR DRINKING WATER
PROPERTY TAX DEFAULT (DELINQUENT) LIST
NOTICE INVITING SEALED BIDS for the FOURTH ST INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CIP 1609, C1611 & C1612
Este informe contiene información muy importante sobre su agua potable.Tradúzcalo o hable con alguien que lo entienda bien. DRINKING WATER WARNING The City of San Juan Bautista Water System has high levels of nitrate DO NOT GIVE THE WATER TO INFANTS UNDER 6 MONTHS OLD OR PREGNANT WOMEN OR USE IT TO MAKE INFANT FORMULA Water sample results received from 8/1/2017 to 8/31/2017 showed nitrate levels ranging from 11.99 to 13.86 milligrams per liter. This is above the nitrate standard, or maximum contaminant level (MCL), of 10 milligrams per liter. Nitrate in drinking water is a serious health concern for infants less than six months old. What should I do? • DO NOT GIVE THE WATER TO INFANTS. Infants below the age of six months who drink water containing nitrate in excess of the MCL may quickly become seriously ill and, if untreated, may die because high nitrate levels can interfere with the capacity of the infant’s blood to carry oxygen. Symptoms include shortness of breath and blueness of the skin. Symptoms in infants can develop rapidly, with health deteriorating over a period of days. If symptoms occur, seek medical attention immediately. • PREGNANT WOMEN SHOULD NOT CONSUME THE WATER. High nitrate levels may also affect the oxygen-carrying ability of the blood of pregnant women. • Water, juice, and formula for children under six months of age should not be prepared with tap water. Bottled water or other water low in nitrates should be used for infants until further notice. • DO NOT BOIL THE WATER. Boiling, freezing, filtering, or letting water stand does not reduce the nitrate level. Excessive boiling can make the nitrates more concentrated, because nitrates remain behind when the water evaporates. • If you have other health issues concerning the consumption of this water, you may wish to consult your doctor. What happened? What is being done? Nitrate in drinking water can come from natural, industrial, or agricultural sources (including septic systems, storm water run-off, and fertilizers). Levels of nitrate in drinking water can vary throughout the year. We will let you know when the amount of nitrate is again below the limit. The City is working to bring two new wells into the water system so that Well #2 (high nitrates) can be taken off-line. The goal is to have the system back in compliance by October. For more information, please contact The City of San Juan Bautista at 831-623-4661 or 311 Second Street (P.O. Box 1420), San Juan Bautista, C.A. 95045. Please share this information with all the other people who drink this water, especially those who may not have received this notice directly (for example, people in apartments, nursing homes, schools, and businesses). You can do this by posting this public notice in a public place or distributing copies by hand or mail. Secondary Notification Requirements Upon receipt of notification from a person operating a public water system, the following notification must be given within 10 days [Health and Safety Code Section 116450(g)]: • SCHOOLS: Must notify school employees, students, and parents (if the students are minors). • RESIDENTIAL RENTAL PROPERTY OWNERS OR MANAGERS (including nursing homes and care facilities): Must notify tenants. • BUSINESS PROPERTY OWNERS, MANAGERS, OR OPERATORS: Must notify employees of businesses located on the property. This notice is being posted by The City of San Juan Bautista. State Water System ID#: 3510002. Date distributed: 9/7/2017. Published: Hollister Free Lance, September 15, 2017.

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 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site www.auction.com for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case 00000006799126. 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.
