COUNTY WORKERS GET COST OF LIVING INCREASE, PAID HOLIDAYS

Anti-bully workshop Enterprise Academy of Martial Arts at 351 Tres Pinos Rd #B in Hollister is hosting a free anti-bully workshop on Thursday, Nov. 2 at 7pm. The workshop aims to educate attendees on bullying, the different types of bullying and how to combat it. Attendees will also learn physical selfdefense techniques.

Showing children how to protect themselves from bullying is important to owner and master instructor Mark Preader, who has toured local elementary schools with his message, “Be The Hero Against Bullying.” Last year, he spoke to more than 3,000 kids. According to the U.S. Department of Justice, an estimated 160,000 children across the nation miss school each day because of bullying.

San Benito County supervisors this week voted to tentatively increase their own salaries from $48,000 to $75,000, after approving numerous labor contracts.

“I don’t necessarily agree with the numbers, per se, but that’s part of my research that I’m doing,” said Suzy Caston, a child support specialist and president of Service Employees International Union (SEIU) Local 521 chapter for San Benito County, which represents 270 county employees, in reference to the proposed raise.

A county supervisor’s salary is $48,194 for parttime hours.

The board voted 4-1 on Tuesday, Oct.24, to proceed with discussion of a 56 percent salary increase, which would boost a supervisor’s to $75,015 in 2018, when the ordinance comes back for a second reading and possible adoption at the Nov. 7 meeting.

Supervisor Robert Rivas was the sole dissenter.

Like all other county employees, the supervisors will receive a 3.5 percent cost-of-living adjustment that would increase their salaries to $49,645.

If adopted at the November meeting, the new raise wouldn’t go into effect until January 2018, because the statute requires a 60-day waiting period after adoption, according to county officials.

The supervisor pay increase discussion and vote came right after the board approved new employment terms with county employees. The action drew skepticism from the union representative at the meeting.

“Right now on the heels of our [memorandums of understanding] that we had to fight pretty hard for, maybe it’s a more of a timing issue that I’m struggling with,” Caston said.

“Maybe if this had come up 10 to 12 months down ➝ SEIU, 4

Hollister theater-lovers, get ready to be shaken up this weekend.

San Benito Stage Company’s teen musical, “All Shook Up,” opens Friday at the Granada Theatre in downtown Hollister.

The musical, which was inspired by and features the songs of Elvis Presley, is based on William Shakespeare’s “Twelfth Night” and is set in 1950’s midwestern America.

“It’s a fun, comedy of errors, love story,” said co-producer, Brian Murphy.

In the story, a guitar-playing, motorcycle rider, Chad (Roberto Nolasco), shows up to a town where music is banned.

Grease-monkey, Natalie (Betsy

Molchan), falls for roustabout, Chad, and to get his attention, she develops a crazy scheme.

Wild love stories ensue with other characters, as well.

Audiences will enjoy hearing such popular songs as “Heartbreak Hotel” and “It’s Now or Never.”

Scenes with “Jailhouse Rock” and “Blue Suede Shoes” give audiences a great treat with the fun scenery and dance numbers. Lesser known ballads of Presley’s such as “There’s Always Me” and “Fools in Love” also find places in tender storylines.

Directed by Aaron Hernandez and Angela (Jula) Prak, and choreographed by Raeann Collison, co-producer Camille Blevins said the actors are more than ready for opening night. The show has been running the smoothly for weeks and many of the actors have been off book since the second week of rehearsal.

“It’s going to be a great opening night,” Murphy said.

Run to prevent drug and alcohol abuse RED RIBBON 5K RUN AND WALK IN DOWNTOWN HOLLISTER SATURDAY Jenny Arbizu Contributor

It may have been a brisk Saturday morning, but that didn’t stop people from coming out and warming up outside of the Veteran’s Memorial Building in downtown Hollister for the 28th Annual Red Ribbon 5K Run/Walk.

“This is the kick-off for Red Ribbon Week,” said Steve Reid, substance abuse manager at San Benito County’s Behavioral Health Department.

“This is all about the youth in this community, the prevention programs, and being able to support that and make awareness for this cause,” he said.

The Red Ribbon 5K is an annual event presented by the behavioral health department and the Hollister Police Department that helps raise awareness of the dangers of drugs and alcohol while benefiting the prevention efforts in local schools.

Over 100 people participated—runners and volunteers who helped put on the event.

Many youths took part in the race as well as entire families.

“I think it's just really important that we focus on the kids and on figuring out how we're going to make this community the best it can be to keep the kids safe,” Reid added.

Julissa Orozco, vocational assistant and Christopher Urzua, substance abuse counselor, both from the behavioral health

#

department, helped organize the event.

Along with department staff and volunteers, Orozco said sponsors such as Church Brothers Farms and True Leaf Farms made the event possible.

“Our team put hard work into this and a lot of our family members have come to volunteer,” Orozco said.

On race day, registration and warm-up began at 8am, an hour before race time. As participants waited for the race to begin— with some with babies and dogs in tow—they stretched, listened to the DJ’s dance tunes and chatted with friends.

Cold Storage Crossfit coaches, Christi Turner and Shayna Crawford, led the crowd in Thunder Burpees as ACDC’s

“Thunderstruck” blasted through the sound system. This reporter sang the national anthem.

The race started in front of the Veteran’s Memorial Building, on the corner of 7th Street and Swope Alley. The route then went northbound on San Benito Street and formed the letter H to end up back in front of the Veteran’s Building on San Benito Street.

As runners and walkers finished the race, medals were handed out by event sponsors, Heroes 4 Hope. Fellow sponsors, Andy’s All About Fruits and Damm’s Water Service, had smoothies and water available for participants.

Medals were given out to the first- through third-place winners of children under 9 years old, and for men and women

in multiple age divisions.

The fastest team, formed by students from Rancho San Justo Middle School in Hollister, were given an award and the overall male and female winners, 17-year-old Arturo Chaves and 12-year-old Viviana Rivas, were given trophies.

A raffle drawing took place with prizes donated by such businesses as Premiere Cinemas, SuperCuts, San Juan Oaks, Pizza Factory and Dona Esther.

Reid said it’s events like the Red Ribbon 5K that will help minimize the number of people with substance abuse problems.

“Statistic-wise, it shows that the younger we get to the kids, the better our chances are,” he said.

“There's no family—there's no community—untouched.”

County supervisors now earn about $48,000 and Juvenile Hall, received a contract change regarding uniforms where the county has agreed to provide one outer jacket and hat for new Juvenile Institution employees.

Cost of living adjustments for the bargaining groups ran parallel with the SEIU agreement.

While the Deputy Sheriffs Association and Law Enforcement Management Association received cost of living adjustments and signing bonuses, they didn’t receive paid holiday dates like SEIU and the Management Employees Group.

Board Chairman Jaime De La Cruz said he used vacation days and sick time at his day job as a controller for a private company to take care of work as a county supervisor.

“Sometimes I don’t get paid for that day,” De La Cruz said. “It’s a dollarfor-dollar commitment. I get less pay by doing less work.”

The county supervisor’s salary of $48,193.94 is less than 25 percent of the salary of a superior court judge, which county staff recommends is used as a baseline to determine supervisors’ pay. According to the staff report presented at the meeting, similar counties have board member salaries that range from 25 to 60 percent of a superior court judge salary.

The current salary for superior court judges in California is $200,042.

Supervisor Mark Medina, the newest member of the board at 10 months in, said he has used vacation time at his

SEIU, 1 the road I wouldn’t have such a question about it.”

The union and other labor bargaining groups have negotiated with the county for months over wage increases, county health care contributions to offset increasing costs and continued holiday office closures established in the past.

After months of talks in closed session and outdoor rallies held by SEIU, both parties reached a tentative agreement on Oct. 4.

Highlights of the county’s agreement with SEIU Local 521 include a 3.5 percent cost-of-living adjustment effective this month, a 0.5 percent cost of living adjustment effective in April 2018 and a 3 percent cost of living adjustment effective in October 2018.

There are also additional signing bonuses of $1,200 to be paid this month and a $1,000 signing bonus effective in October 2018. SEIU workers will receive four paid holiday dates this December and three paid holiday dates in December 2018.

Similar agreements were reached with the other bargaining groups, including the Deputy Sheriffs Association, the Institutions Association, the Management Employees Group, the Law Enforcement Management Association, confidential and underrepresented employees, appointed department heads and elected department heads.

Medina said, according to his own estimation, he puts in anywhere from 37 to 42 hours a week.

The San Benito County Supervisor position is meant to be part-time.

Compare that to the fulltime supervisor positions in Monterey County and Santa Cruz County, which have average annual salaries of $134,000 and $120,000 respectively, according to Transparent California.

“I didn’t realize how many hours it was, a lot more than I expected,” Medina said. “But that’s what life is. I think we also need to look at the salary

compensation because this board isn’t going to be around forever. I want my replacement to have the same passion, momentum and ideas I do. We need to attract good people.”

He went on to say the younger generation couldn’t afford to run a campaign and live on the supervisorial wages without having a full-time or part-time job.

The board considered three raises: 35 percent to $70,015, 40 percent to $80,017 and 45 percent to $90,019.

Medina asked for feedback from the public.

“Please feel free to call me anytime you want,” Medina said. “Email me

and give me feedback and advice. In return I’ll give 110 percent.”

Rivas said he couldn’t support a raise without more information.

“I applaud our chairman for raising this issue and putting it on the agenda, but at this time I need to see more information,” Rivas said. “I’d like to hear from local constituents on how they feel on this issue.”

Rivas works two jobs outside of his supervisorial duties: one as an adjunct professor teaching nights at Gavilan College and the other in a supportive role at San Benito High School.

“It’s not easy, it’s been very difficult at times,” Rivas

said. But I’ve stuck with being a supervisor because I love this county and I have a burning desire to give back to my community. Maybe 20 to 30 years ago when the county was smaller the job might have been less time consuming. But times have changed and demands have grown for this position in my opinion.”

Supervisor Anthony Botelho found a neutral tone.

“I’m not ruling out one of these options or a different option Mr. Chairman, but I know this is a full-time job and I also know that we have to live within the means and bring everybody together,” Botelho said.

Right now on the heels of our [memorandums of understanding] that we had to fight pretty hard for, maybe it’s a more of a timing issue that I’m struggling with —SUZY CASTON, SEIU LOCAL 521 PRESIDENT

OPINION EDITOR’S NOTEBOOK

Me Too

QUESTION OF THE WEEK

Last week, the Hollister Free Lance broke the story of how the Hollister City Council agreed to a deal to develop the 400 block of San Benito Street using an outdated appraisal of $390,000 when a second appraisal, that had not been not publicly disclosed, valued the vacant downtown plot at $690,000.

How should the city council react to this news?

Roseann Hernandez Cattani

Mary Zanger: Fortunately the 400 block sale is on hold until November 2018 when voters decide the issues and the Hollister City Council can sort out the choices. Interim questions to be asked are: How did Steve Loos arrive at his first appraisal which seemed too low? And why didn’t the city council pursue a second appraisal with another appraiser in 2015, which is standard procedure? What could cause such a discrepancy in just one year? Remember, no one should be favored, and all tax-sharing entities will benefit with an increased sale price. Nants Foley: This was such a behind-doors, handshake deal. Anyone in real estate could have told you that was not market value. Welcome to the Good Old Boys Club. Bill Mifsud: This is simply a city council not doing their homework. It was a rush to judgment and now it looks fishy. My original store—Bill's Bullpen—sat on the 400 block. I would hope the 400 block gets more attention than the rush to judgment from council that voted to sell it to developers. Keith Snow: We are always losing out on deals all the time with the city and county—it’s nothing new.

The taxpayer always loses out and the city and county always end up making deals that

are more than they bargained for. They are not focused and need to pay attention to details.

These types of things are a really big deal. We already pay and deal with so many agencies and consultants for everything. How could this kind of discrepancy even happen? We have real estate agents and other professional people on the council who deal with businesses, land and properties all the time. Wouldn't they catch that? Honestly, I am not surprised. I just hope they make the right and honest decision for the sake of the city, downtown and the community. Take accountability and correct the issue. They spent $3 million dollars just to tear the old building down back in 2010.

Question of the Week was sent in an email and posted on the Hollister Free Lance Facebook page on Monday, Oct. 23.

Thank you to all who contributed comments.

COMMENTS

400 block vote used old appraisal The price of this property has always been my reason for supporting the 400 block as public land—390K appears to be a gift to both developers. At that price the citizens of Hollister deserve a safe place to run to when the next big quake hits. It will come! Thank you Free Lance for showing us a truer value. Hopefully the people of Hollister will vote to save this green space as public land.

Knowing that we have a real estate agent on the council and not even he noticed it seemed pretty cheap?

support for the valuable services that the community foundation provides. Our city residents should be supportive. However, this particular use of that property does not support a viable commercial plan for the city as a whole. The issue of bringing more customers to downtown is mute. Community foundation is already downtown. Not to mention a very poor business deal on the backs of the city taxpayers—remember, you are also losing a majority of the parking garage. I liked the idea of putting this between Kmart and YMCA. Wow! What a bargain.

The recent blockbuster allegations of sexual misconduct by mega Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein has spawned a new social media movement as people use the hashtag “MeToo” to highlight their own experiences with sexual harassment and exploitation.

My own Facebook feed is dotted with “MeToo” posts and according to national news reports the movement has topped 1.7 million tweets in 85 countries.

The sheer volume is a sobering one. While men are not immune to sexual misconduct and have also used the hashtag, the movement is largely a female one.

In 1991, Anita Hill brought the topic of sexual harassment to the national consciousness when she testified before Congress about the alleged unsolicited behavior she witnessed from Clarence Thomas, then a nominee for the United States Supreme Court.

I was 14 that year and I remember watching those proceedings on television with my mother in absolute wonder.

On one hand I was growing up in a time marked by extraordinary developments: the fall of communism and the Berlin Wall, the fight against apartheid in South Africa leading to the release of Nelson Mandela from prison, and farm labor movement victories brought about by the tireless work of Cesar Chavez and Dolores Huerta.

To me, life seemed to be one of progress and global awakening. In pop culture, rappers’ lyrics included mentions of safe sex, everyone seemed to want to save the whales or the rainforests and bumper stickers proclaimed loudly to “Free Mumia” and “Keep Tahoe Blue.”

Now, there was a professional woman on TV talking about cans of coke and pubic hairs.

It didn’t make sense.

It was only until I got older that I understood what Ms. Hill was trying to teach.

When I would stand at a bus stop and get propositioned. When I would walk down a street in my own hometown and get asked my rates. When it seemed like every time I went to a concert or club I was standing in the way of an exit or bathroom because why else would stranger’s hands reach out to touch me?

This is why I feel sad but heartened over the #MeToo movement. Young women are more open-minded to the regressive reality that persists to this day. Men are coming out with their own stories. People are more willing to say this behavior is not okay, it’s not funny and perpetrators in authority positions should be punished.

I also hope we take this movement further and look at how women are still receiving unequal treatment in this country.

According to the Pew Research group, women earn 83 percent of what men do for the same job. Women still do the bulk of housework — an hour more on average a day than men do, even when they make more money for the household.

Acknowledgment of the problem and acceptance and empathy for the people who are sharing their stories has to be followed by real and thoughtful change to our unequal system.

OBITUARIES BETTY LOU JOHNSON MOTA SHERMAN

LINDA A PROPP

December 27, 1939 - September 24, 2017 A Celebration of Life Graveside Memorial will be held on Saturday, October 28, 2017 at 11am at Burwood Cemetery 28320 E River Rd Escalon, CA 95320 with a BBQ to follow for close family and friends.

B

etty Lou Johnson Mota Sherman 77, born December 27, 1939, passed away on September 24, 2017 after battling Alzheimer’s. Betty is survived by the love of her life, Al Sherman; her siblings Bob Johnson, Virgil McFarland Jr., Cheryl Holmes and Jeanie Geiger; her kids Brad Johnson, Stephanie Mota Jaussen, Steve Mota, Brian Mota, Lollie Mota, Alec Sherman, Nathan Sherman and Beth Sherman as well as numerous grandkids and great grandkids.

She is preceded in death by both her parents Lloyd Johnson and Nola Linch McFarland, her brother Billy Leroy Johnson and her dog “Sorry”.

Betty was fun and had a great sense of humor.

She loved to sing, dance, read, create beautiful oilpaintings and shoot pool. She enjoyed the simple pleasures in life like spending time with friends and family, a nice meal, a drive in the country or just watching the clouds and birds. She was extremely generous and donated to many charities.

While in her thirties as a single parent of five children and with almost no formal preparation she entered the Nursing Program at Gavilan College in Gilroy. Betty received straight-A’s, was Class President, Valedictorian, gave the Commencement Address at her graduation and scored the highest on the State Board Nursing Exams of any Gavilan student at that date. Betty worked as a nurse for many years.

The California Highway Patrol presented Betty with a Citizen’s Award for her bravery in crawling thru a broken-out passenger-side window to administer CPR for an extended period of time to the victim of a grizzly head-on crash between a bigrig and a sub-compact car.

Betty suffered many hard-knocks and badbreaks in life but instead of withdrawing from life, she chose to develop deep compassion and caring for others. She was always asking people “How are you doing?”, because she genuinely wanted to know.

Betty said “I care about people and I want to let them know that I care about them.” Betty treated people kindly. She found the good in people. She was understanding and forgiving. She touched many lives in beautiful ways.

Betty was an amazing woman who rose above extremely difficult circumstances to achieve great things. She was fun, compassionate, wise, caring and loving. She was courageous, strong, accepting, supportive, kind and generous. She was appreciative of the smallest things, and very affectionate towards others. Betty was a wonderful wife, a great mother, grandmother and a dear friend to all who knew her.

Betty was a strong woman who had strong love – a love that will never die. We can keep Betty’s love alive in our hearts by remembering what she would say: “Always remember how very much I love you.

Be happy. Take good care of yourself.” `

A bumper crop of acorns in the region OAK TREES ARE GOING NUTS THIS YEAR Bryce Stoepfel Reporter

www.GilroyHyundai.com

BUDDING FORESTS In the last year of the drought acorns didn’t have much of a presence.

But this year, they are exploding on rooftops like fireworks.

acorns were an important part of their diet. According to a report released by Sacramento State, 75 percent of native Californians relied on acorns as a daily source of food. They would ground acorns into flour that would be used in bread, soups and porridges.

www.GilroyHyundai.com

Fortunately for car owners, acorns, which weigh less than 10 grams, will not leave dents in cars. According to Alyssa Lehr at Johnny’s Custom Auto Body on Wellburn Avenue, they have received no customers to repair dents caused by acorns.

“We’ve seen a huge increase

www.GilroyHyundai.com

in hit and run accidents, but we haven’t got any acorn claims,” Lehr said.

For the adventurous gourmet, a recipe for acorn pancakes from PBS Foods be found on pbs.org/food/recipes/acornpancakes/. So, make the most of those acorns and bon appetit.

Squirrels rejoice!

It's a bumper crop of acorns this year and besides the delight of these fuzzy, tree climbing varmints, the good news is that they do not harm lawns and have little impact except for the nuisance of cleaning up after them.

“Because of the weather there are a lot more acorns this year,” said Moki Smith, an arborist with Morgan Hill Tree Service. “Acorns are seeds of oak trees and those trees are monoecious, so they have both the male and female reproductive organs, which means they pollinate themselves. That process depends on the trees, weather patterns and available resources. If that process gets interrupted or altered, that can reduce or accelerate the acorn yield.”

While they can be annoying, acorns provide an important food resource for squirrels, deer, wild turkeys, crows and racoons, among dozens of other species that enjoy the favorite food of cartoon chipmunks, Chip and Dale.

“No they don’t have a negative impact,” Smith said. “It’s more of a nuisance cleaning them. There will be more oak trees popping up everywhere.

It will increase the amount of wildlife that comes to properties to munch on the acorns. Other than that, it isn’t a negative.”

With acorns, come squirrels and both can cause roof maintenance trouble. Jimmy Shrull, owner of Jimmy Shrull Roofing Inc. of Gilroy, explained some of the harm that the acorns and critters can do to a roof.

“Leaves, debris and the acorns that squirrels hide on

roofs can dam up the valley areas of a roof, which are the important areas that drain water off of a house,” Shrull said.

“Acorns can plug up gutter systems, which doesn’t allow the water to drain which will cause roof damage if left unnoticed.”

Squirrels follow their food source and when oak trees are situated too close to a home’s roof, often pelting a house relentlessly with acorns, it also allows easy access to the rodents. Shrull and his employees often work near and around squirrels and the two species often brush shoulders with each other. Sometimes, literally.

“One time one of our employees offered an acorn to a baby squirrel that went and crawled up his arm and sat there, it became a little mascot for us,” Shrull said. “Another time we were on a job where a customer was saying that they were hearing sounds coming from their roof. We disassembled part of their tile roof and found a whole family of squirrels. The babies were only the size of a little egg.

We put them in a box and gave them to the homeowner. Since it was their house we left it to them to decide what to do with them. From what I heard, they all survived.”

Sometimes the damage the squirrels do to roofs while stashing acorns can cause considerable damage.

“In that situation it cost several hundred dollars since we had to repair the damage they did,” Shrull said. “The squirrels will often pull up shingles to hide their acorns. It’s worse for tile roofs.”

The Blue, Black and Valley Oaks are native to Gilroy and for Native American tribes of California, including the Amah Mutsun Tribal Band, who have lived in the area since before European colonization,

Gillio says he will challenge Muenzer in 2018 HOLLISTER BUSINESS OWNER HAS BACKGROUND IN PUBLIC SAFETY Nicholas Preciado Reporter

fortunate to have Jim Gillio as a member of the board if elected. The city will be losing a valuable asset.”

Among Gillio’s top priorities are public safety, economic development and fiscal solvency. He wants to ensure public safety officers have adequate resources and support, champion the local region for existing business while attracting new business, and make sure the county is financially stable and that infrastructure like roads are state-of-theart for future generations. “[Gillio] used to work for me in high school,” Muenzer said. “He was a great employee. As far as the race itself, I feel like it’s best to run a clean race. I’m looking forward to serving the people of District 4 for another four years.”

The current city councilman began his long career of public service in law enforcement. He served as a San Benito County Deputy Sheriff before spending 15 years with the Gilroy Police Department. During that time, he was a gang investigator who rose

to the rank of captain and oversaw that division of the department and a $17 million budget.

During his time on the council, Gillio has championed public safety initiatives and supported the increase in sworn personnel to the Hollister Police Department.

He’s received support for his supervisor candidacy from the Hollister Police Officers Association, which also supported his run for city council.

Before his time in law enforcement, Gillio worked in agriculture for over 12 years. He started off as an agricultural hand at his mother’s business, Gillio Farms, which was a local San Benito County decorative produce business. He started working at Gillio Farms at the age of nine and ultimately returned to manage the day-to-day operations after graduating from Fresno State with a Bachelor of Science in Criminology. He’s currently the owner and manager of Central Ag Supply, which offers personal protective

Hollister Councilman Jim Gillio last weekend announced his candidacy for San Benito County District 4 Supervisor, challenging Supervisor Jerry Muenzer.

Muenzer said Monday that he intends to seek reelection to a third fouryear term on the board of supervisors.

“I am running for supervisor because I feel that I can deliver the leadership and vision for our county that we need most,” Gillio said in a press release.

“My time as a small business owner and employer have shown me the challenges that families and employers are facing. This experience has also given me insight on how to help make San Benito County a more welcoming place for both employers and our community members.”

District 4 encompasses the majority of south county, as well

as southeast Hollister, Tres Pinos, Cielo Vista, Stone Gate, Ridgemark, Paicines, Panoche, Pinnacles, Bitterwater and New Idria.

Gillio said he is committed to finishing his term on the Hollister City Council, which ends on December 31, 2018.

The city council appointed Gillio to the open District 4 seat in May when former Councilman Roy Sims abruptly stepped down after moving outside the district earlier in the year. Sims was elected last November to one of four council seats next to the mayor on the dais.

“I couldn’t be happier with the city council’s appointment of Jim Gillio to District 4,” Hollister City Manager Bill Avera said in the press release.

“Jim has shown the dedication required to serve this community with class and dignity. He is very intelligent and will not consider taking action without educating himself and understanding all the necessary factors. The County of San Benito will be extremely

MOVING UP Hollister City Councilman Jim Gillio announced his plan to run for San Benito County Supervisor next year. Gillio was appointed the city council when former councilman Roy Sims moved outside the district. equipment and janitorial supplies.

Gillio has lived in San Benito County since he was a child. He’s married to Tricia Gillio and they have an 11-year-old daughter.

District 4 isn’t the only county seat that could change next November, as District 3 Supervisor Robert Rivas has opened a committee and filed to run for California State Assembly District 30,

currently represented by Anna Caballero.

Because of term limits, Caballero cannot run as an incumbent next November.

Rivas has not made an official announcement. He said one is forthcoming.

“I have tremendous support throughout the Assembly district,” Rivas said by phone Monday. “I’m excited, but all I can tell you at this point is that a public announcement will be coming soon.”

Saturday event will aid Mexico and Puerto Rico MUSIC, FOOD AND FAMILY ACTIVITIES SET FOR SAN JUAN BAUTISTA Nicholas Preciado Reporter

As the national news cycle moves on from the natural disasters that rocked Puerto Rico and Mexico, local residents are coming together to raise funds for impacted residents.

On Saturday, Oct. 28, San Juan Bautista locals will hold

a fundraiser at the El Teatro Campesino Playhouse at 705 Fourth St. from 10am to 5pm.

“It’s important for communities to understand that we’re not as different as people want us to believe,” said Noé Montoya, an actor and musician who joined the theater company in 1970 when he was still in high school. “We’re all brothers and sisters. We all cry, feel pain and laugh. When a community in the world is hurting, we all hurt.”

The event will have food vendors, folkloric dancing, music, face painting, balloon sculpting, a silent auction and raffle.

Musical acts include Aromas musician Jesse Martinez, Mr. O’s Jazz Band, Roadside Honey, Cuatro Con Tres, and Helen Najera Reyes and Friends.

All proceeds will go toward disaster relief efforts in Puerto Rico and Mexico.

“We decided that all the

proceeds need to go directly to the people and bypass government officials because unfortunately they take their own cut,” Montoya said. “Some organizations do the same thing—they have overhead.

We want every penny to go to the people as much as possible.”

Montoya will team up with Johnny Saldivia, a musician and president of the Puerto Rican Civic Club of the San Jose Executive Board, to get

donations to Puerto Rico.

“They’re having a fundraiser themselves,” Montoya said of the civic club. “They’ll be taking the funds directly to Puerto Rico. I talked to Johnny and asked if we can jump onboard and he said ‘of course’” While a donation destination for Mexico hasn’t been selected yet, funds could go to Los Topos, a Mexico City volunteer rescue group.

San Juan Bautista City Council adjourns early PROPOSED CHANGE TO INTERIM CITY MANAGER EMPLOYMENT TERMS SPARKS CONFUSION Nicholas Preciado Reporter

Drama on the dais caused the San Juan City Council meeting on Tuesday to adjourn early as as one council member repeatedly asked for clarification on the same point to the consternation and bewilderment of those in the room.

The issue stemmed from a proposal to add hours to the weekly duties of Interim City Manager Ed Tewes.

“In our current agreement, based on the analysis that had been given to you on Sept. 19, the council limited the hours to 30-32 hours a week,” Tewes said. “I think it’s clearly more than that and if the council wants to recognize that, it would be appropriate.”

The council hired Tewes as interim city manager in September after the abrupt resignation of former city manager and city engineer Roger Grimsley.

The council hired Pleasanton-based 4Leaf Inc. to handle engineering duties. The consulting firm holds contracts with the City of Hollister and San Benito County.

“I know he’s putting in more than he’s getting paid for already,” Councilman Tony Boch said of Tewes, who was recently the interim city manager for the City of Gilroy and assisted in the recruitment of its current top administrator.

The interim city manager isn’t a salaried employee and is instead billed hourly. Council members approved $50 per hour with no benefits when they hired Tewes last month.

Councilman Dan DeVries, who showed

up to the meeting an hour late, asked Tewes to clarify.

“What you’re saying is therefore you want more hours?” DeVries asked. “You want us, this vote right now will be to increase the amount of hours, right?”

The council had yet to put a motion on the table.

Tewes explained that his employment contract with the city stated he’d be paid an hourly rate of no more than 32 hours per week.

“I believe the mayor’s proposal is to increase that to 40 hours a week,” Tewes said.

Mayor Chris Martorana confirmed: “That’s correct.”

Tewes, who has over 40 years of experience in communities including Gilroy and Morgan Hill, had big shoes to fill when he took on the top job at city hall in San Juan Bautista.

Former city manager Grimsley, who served in a number of high profile roles in Hollister during the 1970s and 1980s, also acted as the city engineer and resigned after coming under fire from community members and elected officials for allegedly approving significant alterations to a portion of the Rancho Vista housing development currently under construction without having the developer first seek approval from elected city representatives.

City Attorney Deborah Mall explained to the council that she drafted Tewes’ contract like an employment agreement.

“When you increase the hours to 40, Mr. Tewes will not get overtime under that contract,” Mall said.

“So do we have to be mindful of the amount of overtime hours that is spent on this contract as drafted?” asked DeVries.

Mall explained the interim city manager

was exempt from overtime provisions.

“We don’t really have to look at that unless he goes under. Then you’re worried about that because it’s assuming he’ll work 40-plus hours.”

DeVries still didn’t seem to grasp the concept, much to the frustration of the council and audience.

The mayor tried to simplify things after some bickering.

“If you have some issue please address it specifically,” Martorana said.

“I don’t have an issue,” DeVries said.

“What I would like is the whole thing stated clearly. What is he asking?” DeVries pointed to Tewes.

“He didn’t ask for anything,” Martorana said.

DeVries asked for further clarification.

“You are the motion maker then?” DeVries asked.

Martorana was visibly frustrated.

“The mayor!” he said.

“That’s me. I asked for this.”

At that point, an audience member got up to address the council.

“With all due respect, I think that adjournment right now would be very wise,” she said.

“Please do that. This is getting embarrassing and I think that the citizens of this city deserve a lot more than what we’re getting and being exposed to right now.”

The mayor faced resistance when he initially moved to adjourn and proceeded to ask for a roll call vote.

Mayor Martorana, Vice Mayor Jim West and Councilman Boch voted to adjourn, with Councilman John Freeman and Councilman DeVries dissenting.

“What just happened?” DeVries asked the mayor as the meeting ended.

This is getting embarrassing and I think that the citizens of this city deserve a lot more than what we’re getting and being exposed to right now.”

SPORTS Champs Again

Joe Andrade

QUEENS OF THE COURT The San Benito High girls volleyball team celebrate moments after clinching a four-set win over Salinas last Thursday. The Haybalers finished a perfect 12-0 in MBL Gabilan Division play, capturing an outright title for the second straight season.

BALERS GO A PERFECT 12-0 IN MBL GABILAN TO 3-PEAT AS CHAMPIONS emanuel lee Sports Editor

that’s not a typo—the volleyball teams went a combined 36-0 this season.

Talk about a potential dynasty in the making.

The senior quartet of Breger, Sabbatini, Andrade and Hoskins have had to adjust to three different coaches in four years and a new roster every season.

Yet in the end, the results are the same: The Balers are the queens of the Gabilan Division once again.

Feeding off the energy of a boisterous home crowd—“It was definitely the loudest crowd we’ve had this season,” Balers coach Emily Tonascia said—San Benito had too much for Salinas. The Cowboys showed plenty of grit, throwing a major scare to the home side when they saved five— count ‘em, five—match points in Game 3 to turn a 24-18 deficit to 24-23.

However, the Balers

clinched the game by winning a long rally, which was commonplace throughout the match. Both squads played tremendous defense, digging up balls that would normally go

down for points. San Benito’s defense is peaking at the perfect time, as players like senior libero Andrade made incredible digs time and again.

“I wish there was a

way to track all the balls Nicole ran down because some of the plays she made were insane,” Tonascia said. “We played great defense tonight, and some ➝ Volleyball, page 19

Joe Andrade

When Annie Breger, Lauren Sabbatini, Nicole Andrade and Kieley Hoskins emerged as starters during their freshmen year, they never imagined they would be part of a core group that would go on to win three consecutive league championships. But that was the reality last week when host San Benito High defeated Salinas in four games to threepeat as the Monterey Bay

League Gabilan Division champions—the last two as the outright champs.

Spurred on by a raucous home crowd, the Haybalers defeated Salinas for the third time this season.

Game scores were “This is the best one because of the atmosphere and because we’re seniors,” said Sabbatini, who had a team-high 25 kills to go along with 20 digs. “In prior years, we counted on other teams to beat certain teams, but this year we’re working hard to stay undefeated.”

And that’s exactly what the Balers did Tuesday, edging Monte Vista Christian in five games— the second time in as many meetings the teams went the distance—to cap off a perfect 12-0 league mark. With the San Benito freshmen and junior varsity teams also going a perfect 12-0—no,

SAN BENITO FOOTBALL

Gonzalez runs with heart, inspiration emanuel lee Sports Eitor

with such tenacity and vigor that he breaks several tackles in every game, and in those moments there is no doubt he is a gridiron warrior. Gonzalez has rushed for a team-high 645 yards and six touchdowns on 110 carries.

In a 35-12 loss to Aptos last Friday, Gonzalez had runs of 50 and 74 yards, two of the many memorable moments in his individual highlight-reel this season. On the 50-yard run, the Haybalers (5-3 overall, 3-2 MBL Gabilan) executed a fake so well that the referees initially didn’t notice Gonzalez had the ball.

Aptos actually tackled Gonzalez, but when Gonzalez didn’t hear a whistle,

he did what any good running back would’ve done— he kept running.

“The other team was obviously mad about that because I was down,” he said. “But apparently the fakes were so good they weren’t looking at me at first.”

Gonzalez said his 74-yard touchdown run was the perfect glimpse into why he credits his teammates for any big run he produces. Gonzalez ran behind the left side of the offensive line, fullback Joe DeMaggio had a great kickout block and lineman Aiden Pung and tight end Gio Giannotta helped spring Gonzalez to the end zone. ➝ Gonzalez, page 18

Robert Eliason

Jonny Gonzalez was a sophomore starting fullback two years ago when a serious infection, trench mouth, forced him to miss two games—along with his starting position.

“I was devastated because I had never not started before (at any level),” the San Benito High senior running back said. “I decided I wasn’t going to just sit there, so I looked at opportunities to play elsewhere.”

That opportunity came at linebacker, where a couple of key injuries at that position—along with hard work—helped pave the way for Gonzalez to seize a starting spot on

the defense, something he carried through the team’s two playoff games.

“Losing my starting position made me think there will always be somebody who wants your job,” Gonzalez said. “To this day I’m seeing I’m not invincible and I have to give my all on every play because you never know when it’ll be your last.”

That pretty much sums up the keys of success for Gonzalez, who will never be mistaken for looking the part. At 6-foot-2 and 175 pounds, Gonzalez resembles more of a basketball player than a football player, even when he gets in his stance in the backfield.

Kliewer hopes to pace Balers to state SAN BENITO HIGH SENIOR LOOKS TO BE IN PEAK FORM WITH LEAGUE AND CCS UPCOMING emanuel lee Sports Editor

Robert Eliason

After an injury slowed her progress last year, Elli Kliewer is back on track this season. The San Benito High senior is rounding into top form heading into Saturday’s Monterey Bay League Championships.

Kliewer took second in the MBL’s third Center Meet on Oct. 18 in 19 minutes, 4 seconds—just three seconds off the winning time.

“It’s been a really great and exciting season,” she said. “I have to push myself to do better so my times can drop. We want to make state, and it would be a great way to top it off being a senior.”

Kliewer won the MBL Championships during her sophomore year—she didn’t compete in the sport as a freshman—before an injury midway through her junior season derailed her hopes of winning back-to-back individual titles. However, Kliewer has come back strong this season, and she’s peaking at the perfect time.

Kliewer has steadily picked up her pace in the last month, as her times have dropped with each successive meet. Haybalers co-coach Ryan Shorey said Kliewer’s determination and work ethic has allowed her to rise to prominence.

“It’s great to have someone who stays on the straight and narrow and is doing what she knows she should be doing,” Shorey said. “She wants to get back to being that individual league champion as

EXCELLENCE Elli Kliewer (red shirt) leads the Balers in a recent practice. San Benito is aiming for a fifth consecutive MBL Gabilan title on Saturday. well as helping the team to another championship.”

The Balers are aiming for a fifth consecutive league title, the longest such streak by any sports team at the school. Indeed, the tradition-rich San Benito girls program is running in fifth gear—and they’re hoping to hit another level in the next few weeks.

“The girls are still well within range of making it to state,” Shorey said. “Elli doing well is what will help us get there.”

Kliewer has been nothing short of consistent

this season, having recorded a first-place finish to go along with a pair of seconds and one third-place finish. She has finished no lower than 14th, and that came in the loaded Earlybird Invitational on Sept. 16 at Toro Park.

Kliewer has been focusing on running on the balls of her feet, completing her workouts strong and making sure during the races she stays even-keeled.

“I want to keep my pace and make sure I’m not going out too fast or

too slow,” she said.

Kliewer also focuses on taking quick, short steps on the uphill portion of a race while using her momentum to gain speed on the downhill. Ultimately, that’s where most cross country races are won—up and down the hills.

“Even if you’re tired after running up the hill, you have to maintain pace, push yourself and lean forward on the downhill,” she said.

Shorey has been impressed with Kliewer’s demeanor ever since she came out for the team

in her sophomore year.

Kliewer, who played volleyball as a freshman, has demonstrated an ability to consistently produce meet after meet.

“Elli is one that leads by example,” Shorey said.

“She doesn’t say much at practice, but she gets her stuff done on the course and on the track. When she is completing her repeats, that’s when you see her leadership.”

Typical running workouts include intervals, tempo, hill repeats, long runs and fartlek runs.

Kliewer enjoys all of the different workouts, as they all serve a different purpose in building up the cardiovascular system.

“I like them all because they all blend together to help you improve,” she said. “Everything is geared for a specific purpose to help you in a race.”

Kliewer plans on running in college, having gained a love for running in the last three years.

“I want to see what I can do,” she said.

Something says Kliewer’s best days are ahead of her.

Gonzalez one of the standup players on San Benito High football team Page 17 Gonzalez also pointed to the efforts of Daniel Pasillas, Blaze McShane, Diego Ramirez, Nate Sanchez, Jesus Toscano and Matt Hernandez as playing pivotal roles in opening up running lanes. Gonzalez never lacks for motivation because he knows his family members are his biggest fans.

Gonzalez spent plenty of time with his dad, Saul Gonzalez Jr., growing up playing a variety of sports.

Even when Gonzalez was all of 5 years old, he said his dad never took it easy on him.

“He made me work for everything I had,” Gonzalez said. “We played catch all the time, and he would throw me the ball as if I was a grown man. He said Gonzalez kids aren’t kids—just small men.”

Saul had his son play basketball to build stamina while also having him compete in wrestling to learn a double leg takedown for the purpose of transferring that skill to tackling for football.

“Everything I did, he taught me for football,” Gonzalez said. “He’s been raising me my whole life to prepare me for this. The

reason I’m here is because my parents have been fully supportive of everything I’ve done, and for that I’m grateful.”

Gonzalez’s mom, Karen, has played a huge role in shaping Gonzalez’s focus and mental makeup.

“My mom gets my motor running because she’s a real motivational talker,” Gonzalez said.

Gonzalez has two younger brothers, and he knows it’s important for him to set a good example.

“My dad always told me I have to set the bar high for them,” he said. “All of my actions are going to

have a reactive effect with them. If I mess up or do something stupid, they’ll see it and might repeat it when they’re older. But if I keep continuing to do good life-wise, grade-wise and treating people well, that will have a positive effect on them.”

Balers coach Bryan Smith has been effusive in his praise for Gonzalez, calling him a consummate professional.

Gonzalez grew up at Andy Hardin Stadium, having played Pop Warner and flag football there. Friday’s contest against North Salinas is the last regular-season

game at Andy Hardin Stadium—and possibly ever— if the Balers don’t end up hosting a playoff game.

Construction for the new athletic facilities is expected to start within the next year.

“When you think of home, that stadium is one of the places I think about,” Gonzalez said. “I know every inch on that field: the potholes, the bumps, the dirt patches.

But there’s nothing like playing on grass, and there’s nothing like that stadium. I’ll always have a certain attachment to that place.”

Gonzalez credits the love and care he’s felt from his parents as critical for his development.

“I play for them,” Gonzalez said. “I want to make them proud.”

Gonzalez has done just that and more.

NOTES: In the blowout loss to Aptos last week, Smith told NewSVMedia staff writer Bryce Stoepfel: “We’re going to be working on our consistency and fire. We had a really good week of practice and we’ll need to have another. We just need to find a way to keep these guys motivated.”

Matsui the last line of Balers defense SAN BENITO HIGH GOALIE HAS MADE NUMEROUS TOUGH SAVES THIS SEASON emanuel lee Sports Editor

Ed Wong

Early in the fourth quarter of a Oct. 19 match between San Benito High and Monterey High, Casey Matsui found himself in an unenviable position.

The Haybalers’ senior goalie was staring down Monterey’s Max Gibbs, who had a 5-meter penalty shot. But Matsui wasn’t fazed; after all, in the team’s first match a month earlier, Matsui faced the same exact situation.

This time, however, Matsui made a terrific save, diving to his left to deflect the ball.

“The first time we played them, he shot it to my left and I missed it,” Matsui said. San Benito (14-10), the regular-season MBL Pacific Division champions, opens the division playoffs as the top seed and faces No. 4 seed Palma on Thursday at Carmel High. “I figured this time he would be shooting in the same direction, and I guessed right and got the block.”

Matsui actually looks forward to facing tough penalty shots, as the

pressure is on the shooter to score since it’s from a relatively close distance and free shot. Goalies aren’t expected to stop penalty shots, but when they do, it gives their team a tremendous boost.

“Those are fun because you have to get on your legs as much as possible and put your arms out wide,” he said. “There’s not much more you can do than that. You just hope they throw the ball in your arms and you guess right.”

Matsui has stopped several point-blank shots this season, a testament to the dramatic improvement he’s made in the last year. Matsui plays for the club team Legacy, which is based out of Monterey.

Through that experience, Matsui learned and developed the skills necessary to take his game up a notch.

Last season, Matsui surrendered several soft goals, a byproduct of him still learning the position. This year those soft goals have been dramatically reduced, to the point where any time Matsui allows a goal that would be considered stoppable, he gets noticeably angry.

Yes, Matsui’s standard is at a much higher bar compared to 2016.

STOPPER Balers goalie Casey Matsui has been nothing short of fantastic this season. The San Benito High senior has stopped

several point-blank shots while making the routine ones in helping lead the Balers to a No. 1 seed in the Pacific Division.

“The coaches at Legacy really helped me a lot,” he said. “They taught me a lot about being a goalie that I didn’t know before. They taught me exactly where I need to be if the ball is at a certain spot in the pool, and that I needed to cut off angles and make it a lot harder for the shooter to find an opening.”

Matsui also learned how to properly utilize his arms when blocking the ball—technique makes all the difference—while upping his conditioning.

“All of the conditioning we did really helped me get in better shape,” he said.

In a tough and physically demanding sport like water polo, superior conditioning makes a huge difference. Matsui doesn’t have the ideal prototypical goalie body, but he manages to excel regardless.

“I’m not very tall and I don’t have a large wingspan,” he said. “I have to have stronger legs and react quicker.”

The Balers will need

Matsui to be at his best should they face Monterey again in the tournament final. In a 11-9 overtime loss to Monterey on Oct. 19, San Benito had a number of miscues in every facet of the game, and can’t afford those again.

“Monterey beat us on the backdoor drive a lot,” Matsui said. “We’ll have to defend that better, make stronger passes and communicate better.”

Matsui has come a long way, as he had no idea what water polo was until

his freshman year. He only started playing because Balers JV coach David Garcia had a talk with Matsui’s parents, whom Garcia said “kind of forced me to try out.”

While Matsui didn’t like it at the time, he is grateful his parents forced the issue in this one matter.

“I’m not going to lie—I wanted to quit after the first week of tryouts,” he said. “I wasn’t used to the conditioning, and it was hard. But luckily my parent and coaches told me to keep pushing, and that’s why I’m here now.”

Balers’ freshmen, JV and varsity teams go 36-0 Page 17

assists to go along with 24 digs. Two juniors— Carissa Garcia and Eliana Gaitan—also played instrumental roles down the stretch, with Gaitan recording some key kills in Game 4. Another key newcomer, Marisa Greig, has added to the team’s offensive repertoire.

“We’re seeing a lot of good things from all of them,” Tonascia said.

“They’ve really stepped it up, and they’ve had to because we need more hitters.”

Alyssa Ito, Maya Garcia, Amanda Navarro, Liz Fleming and Kiana Heredia have also made strong contributions, whether in matches or in practice.

Tonascia decided to carry a 12-player roster in part so everyone would have a realistic opportunity to contribute in some form.

Sabbatini said the home crowd’s exuberance had a noticeable effect.

“We really appreciated them tonight,” she said.

“This is by far the biggest crowd and most support we’ve gotten all year.

The home crowd snaps us back in game mode if we’re struggling, and they pick us up when we’re down.

It’s kind of like having a seventh person on the court for us.”

Of course, being a major part of three championship-winning teams carry a lot of emotion. Just ask Sabbatini, who welled up with tears after talking with former teammate Ally Murphy upon the completion of the match.

“I was a freshman when she was a senior, and she was like a mom to me,” Sabbatini said. “She pushed me everyday on

the court and was always there for me, so it was really touching and awesome she came back to watch us.”

The Balers will play in the Central Coast Section’s Open Division, pitting them against the very best squads in the section. It’s a challenge they’re relishing.

What makes San Benito’s accomplishment all the more remarkable is the fact it did it with a roster of players and coaches that change every season.

“We’ve had to connect to different coaches, all who had their own unique strengths,” Sabbatini said.

“We’ve had to connect with new teammates every year, and we still succeed.

Everything is different every year.”

Except this: The Balers are once again the champions of the MBL.

of the rallies were so long because everyone was on their toes ready to play defense, which is exactly what we practice everyday.”

Sabbatini, the probable league Most Valuable Player, said defense was the key to the victory.

“Coach really has us focusing on defense in practice and getting every ball up no matter how hard it’s hit,” Sabbatini said. “She knew Salinas was going to make its move and really challenge us on defense, and what we were able to do in this game on defense showed just how hard we’re working on it in practice.”

Once again, San Benito had balance both offensively and defensively. Breger had 10 kills, Andrade finished with 21 digs, and Hoskins pumped out 43

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the City of Hollister, as the Lead Agency under the California Environmental Quality Act, has completed a Draft Environmental Impact Report (Draft EIR) for the Chappell Road Project and the Draft EIR is currently available for public review and comment.

Project Name: Chappell Road Project Project Location: The Chappell Road project is within the City of Hollister Planning Area and the City’s Urban Planning Area. Hollister is located in San Benito County, southeast of Gilroy and east of San Juan Bautista. The City serves as the county seat. The project area is located along State Route (SR) 25 (Hollister Bypass) adjacent to the eastern city limit, just outside of the City’s existing Sphere of Influence (SOI) boundary. The project area is bordered by Santa Ana Road to the south, North Chappell Road to the west, and SR 25 to the east and north. The project area includes 13 different parcels.

Project Description: The proposed project includes the following proposed actions: (1) expansion of the City’s SOI by approximately 100.6 acres; (2) prezoning of three parcels to Low Density Residential consistent with General Plan designations; and (3) annexation of approximately 32.4 acres for those parcels. Parcels 1, 2, and 3 are proposed for nearterm development, while the remaining parcels would be annexed in phases based on the property owner’s readiness.

It is understood that future actions and detailed submittals for development of parcels A through I may require additional CEQA review.

Currently parcels 1, 2, and 3 are slotted for annexation and development. The rest of the parcels located in the project area would be developed once annexation and development proposals would be submitted for City approval.

Construction assumptions in this Draft EIR are based on the full development potential for the project area. It is assumed that parcels 1, 2, and 3 would be developed within the next five years, with the rest of the parcels as development applications are developed.

Environmental Effects Discussed in the Document: The City has prepared a Draft EIR to address the specific environmental effects of the Chappell Road Project. The Draft EIR consists of an analysis of the following environmental issue areas that may be impacted by the project: Aesthetics, Agricultural Resources, Air Quality, Biological Resources, Cultural Resources, Geology & Soils, Greenhouse Gases, Hazards and Hazardous Materials, Hydrology and Water Quality, Land Use, Noise, Population and Housing, Public Services, Transportation and Traffic, and Utilities. After mitigation, the project would have fourteen significant and unavoidable impact related to the conversion of prime farmland, cumulative conversion of farmland, long-term air quality operational emissions, cumulatively considerable increase in non-attainment criteria pollutants, built environment cultural resources, cumulative impacts on cultural and tribal cultural resources and human remains, generation of greenhouse gas emissions under Year 2030 conditions, compliance with Senate Bill 32 Greenhouse Gas Reduction Policy, compliance with the General Plan Open Space and Agriculture Element, cumulative land use impacts, exposure of persons to substantial noise and a permanent increase in noise, cumulative traffic noise impacts, compliance with an applicable traffic plan, and cumulative traffic impacts.
