NOB HILL TO LEAVE TOWN IN '27, WITH GUS IN WINGS Competition from new Whole Foods site across Blossom Hill combines with entry of SF custom grocer

Anik a K apasi, Contributor

Waymo has expanded its operations into Los Gatos for the first time, making driverless rides available to around 100 residents in the North 40 neighborhood. The autonomous vehicles’ service area currently extends south to Pollard Road and Lark Avenue, and autonomous specialists were seen riding in the driver’s seat outside of Waymo’s current boundaries last week. These trained drivers often sit behind the wheel during certain testing and validation phases to monitor the technology, according to Waymo’s website. On Friday, the Mountain View-based company announced that it received state approval to dramatically expand its taxi services across the Bay Area. The California Depar tment of Motor Vehicles released an updated map showing Waymo’s new approved operating range in Northern California, including the addition of East Bay and North Bay counties. “Our goal is to make Waymo accessible to more communities across the entire San Francisco Bay Area over time,” Sandy Karp, communications manager at Waymo, wrote in an email to the Los Gatan. “Waymo regularly drives in and around the cities where we operate with human specialists present.”

The Battle of Blossom Hill grocers has ended before it had much of a chance to heat up. Fo u r m o n t h s a f t e r A m azon-owned Whole Foods opened a giant new store directly across Blossom Hill Road from Los Gatos mainstay Nob Hill Foods, the family-owned California-based grocer has thrown in the towel. Nob Hill, based in Sacramento, confirmed this week in media statements that it will leave Los Gatos after nearly 56 years at its premium site at Los Gatos Boulevard and Blossom Hill Road, choosing not to renew a lease that expires in 2027.

HOW TO EASE THE PAIN OF FAMILY FOOD INSECURITY Rethinking Food: Hunger at Home focuses on wasted food Jeffrey P. Blum, Contributor

When you walk down North Santa Cruz Avenue, it is easy to feel insulated from the harsher realities of Silicon Valley. But every so often, the contrast hits close to home. You might see an unhoused neighbor pushing a shopping cart filled with all their worldly belongings along the sidewalk. It is a quiet moment that asks for something fundamental to our shared humanity: Do we turn away, or do we look closer? That struggle on our streets is only the surface of a much deeper, hidden crisis. Across Santa Clara County, food insecurity affects thousands of residents, working parents, fixed-income seniors and unhoused individuals. The scale of the paradox is staggering. In the United States, roughly 30% to 40% of the entire food supply is wasted, translating to over 100 billion pounds of food thrown into landfills each year. Yet here in Silicon Valley, one of the wealthiest concentrations of capital on Earth, an estimated 1 in 4 residents is at risk of food insecurity. Tons of perfectly fresh, wholesome food is discarded daily, even as parents in our communities skipmeals so their children can eat. The movement to bridge this heartbreaking gap started with a child’s simple, piercing question. Years ago, Ewell Sterner, then an executive in the hospitality industry, was asked by his 8-year-old son why anyone was going hungry when so much food existed. That innocent observation sparked the creation of Hunger at Home, a visionary non-profit dedicated to rescuing surplus food and turning commercial waste into lifeline meals. To date, Hunger at Home has sourced, prepared and distributed tens of millions of pounds of food and critical surplus to non-profit partners and residents, transforming a logistical problem into community salvation. My wife, Lissa, and I became deeply involved in this work through our role as

BOUNTIFUL FOOD Shelves of local grocery stores may be filled with healthy fresh foods, but 30% to 40% of the U.S. food supply ends in landfills each year.

co-chairs of the Community Service Projects and Grants Committee at the Rotary Club of Los Gatos. Through Rotary, we’ve seen firsthand how systemic solutions and personal service can transform local lives. Numerous times throughout the year, Lissa and I ask our fellow Rotarians to join us at dawn on Monday mornings at the San José Flea Market, a distribution hub generously made possible by the Bumb family. Typically, eight to ten of us show up early to spend an hour packing bags with fresh produce: apples, lemons, peppers, avocados or whatever healthy bounty Hunger at Home rescued that week. We stack and organize cartons of milk, yogurt, loaves of fresh bread, and cuts of meat or poultry, preparing for the influx. What makes volunteering with Hunger at Home even more gratifying is listening to the passion in Ewell’s voice as he speaks to the volunteers, explaining

the prevalence of food insecurity and how Hunger at Home addresses it. Even more moving is seeing how he has mentored his young assistants. Over time, Lissa and I have watched these youth grow remarkably in their poise, eloquence, and ability to Lead. Following a brief, inspiring prep talk from Ewell and his young team, two long rows of cars begin to roll through. Over the next two hours, we load provisions directly into more than 250 vehicles. The experience is bittersweet. The gratitude from recipients is immediate and overwhelming, you see it in tired eyes, relieved smiles and soft, heartfelt words of thanks. But beneath that gratitude lies a heavy, persistent sadness. It is sobering to realize that in our prosperous valley, hundreds of families must line up at dawn for hours just to secure basic groceries. It is food insecurity staring you directly in the face.

Hunger at Home plays a critical role in solving this crisis by helping local businesses adapt to California’s organic waste reduction laws, which mandate a 75% reduction in organic waste disposal to keep edible food out of landfills. Hunger at Home manages the entire chain, from collection and strict health and safety compliance to cold storage, preparation and distribution. Compassion begins as a feeling we experience when passing someone in distress on North Santa Cruz Avenue, but it cannot end there. Compassion is an active choice to ensure that no one in our county goes without the basic human dignity of a meal. By supporting food rescue initiatives and recognizing the needs around us, we can turn a moment of observation in downtown Los Gatos into lasting, life-changing impact across our valley.

REPORTER'S NOTEBOOK Courtesy of Anika Kapasi

WHY JOURNALISM WILL ALWAYS BE WORTH CHOOSING A young journalist reflects on the changing news landscape Anik a K apasi, Intern

We all need those reminders — the little sparks of inspiration on why we chose a certain path when there was a simpler alternative right in front of us. Returning to the California Scholastic Press Association journalism workshop as a counselor this past July was mine. The two-week annual intensive, hosted on Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo’s campus, celebrated its 75th anniversary this year. The workshop, which began as a boys-only sports journalism workshop in 1951, now trains high school journalists on a variety of aspects of journalism — including political reporting, feature writing and public relations. Reporters from publications including The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, NBC and the Los Angeles Times teach classes exposing students to beats ranging from crime and politics to obituaries and features. Students write multiple stories each day under tight deadlines, covering mock press conferences, interviews and breaking-news scenarios designed to force them to quickly determine the most newsworthy information for writing. I attended the workshop as a student in the summer of 2024 before my senior year of high school. It was an election year and over those two weeks, I watched breaking news unfold through the eyes and perspective of my instructors. Joe Biden announced on X that he was dropping out of the presidential race and current President Donald Trump was shot in the ear at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. I still remember one of my instructors from the NYT immediately logging onto his computer to write and file a story related to the fallout on deadline — seated right next to us in class. I knew then I wanted to be exactly like him. I learned so much about news fundamentals and strong journalistic practices as a student that year that carried me through my first year of college. Coming back this year as a counselor to help the instructors and look after the students, it was refreshing. The same certainty for journalism I had in 2024 was fading. Coming into Boston University as a journalism major, I was elated to final-

ly be surrounded by people who cared enough about journalism that they wanted to study it in college. Don’t get me wrong — my time at the Saratoga Falcon newspaper at Saratoga High was rewarding, but for most students there, the paper was an afterthought. It had a robust staff of 70 by the time I graduated and my advisor, Michael Tyler, was nothing short of supportive of the stories the publication wanted to chase after. But for a STEM-focused, academically high-strung school, why would the arts take precedence? For most students, the class fulfilled a graduation requirement, and then those who enjoyed it decided to stay with it until they graduated. I’ve learned, though, that if you want to pursue journalism seriously, it isn’t enough to just enjoy it. You have to love it. And I mean LOVE it. Let's be real — the pay is rarely glamorous, work-life balance is difficult under the 24-hour news cycle and much of your work is consumed in minutes — if readers even make it past the third paragraph (so, if you're reading this, I’m happy you're here!). When my introductory classes at BU didn’t challenge or engage me, I started to question whether I truly loved it.

Coming back to the Bay Area this summer, where the default career paths often seem to be engineer, doctor or — if neither works out — “pre-broke,” it was easy to question whether journalism still has a place. Add to that an industry wrestling with artificial intelligence, shrinking newsrooms and changing business models, it is hard to picture what the profession will look like in ten years. Yet, for two weeks, I watched curious students from all over the West Coast raise their hands and ask how to structure a lede, understand their rights as journalists and tackle some of the ethical dilemmas today facing the profession. Being back alongside CSPA’s instructors — reporters whose bylines I read every day — made the profession feel “human” again. To have instructors take the time out of their work to spend time investing in the next generation’s development — as volunteers, might I add — is special. Their passion was contagious and reminded me of why the industry matters. In celebration of 75 years, the association held a reunion. Six decades of CSPA alumni came and spoke about where life had taken them after the workshop. Some became journalists. Some did not.

I spent an afternoon listening to generations of reporters describe how the profession had transformed over the course of their careers. Typewriters to computers. Notebooks to smartphones. A morning, afternoon and evening paper to a fully online 24-hour news service platform. Journalism never disappeared. It has evolved. The news itself isn't going anywhere — that I am sure — just the form in which we deliver it. I’d be remiss to say I wasn't a little jealous of the generations that came before me, when newspapers landed on doorsteps three times a day. I’d also be lying if I said I wasn't nervous about where this industry is headed. But I’d be lying to myself if I said I didn't want to help shape whatever comes next. I’ve never been particularly superstitious, but I do believe that sometimes life has a way of reminding you why you started. I never thought I’d be so grateful to spend 12 days living in a stuffy dorm and sitting in a classroom sweating because it had terrible air conditioning. Thank you, CSPA, for being that reminder. For helping me rediscover the little spark that first convinced me journalism was worth choosing—and for reminding me that, despite everything, it still is.

REAL ESTATE

RECENT SALES AND PRICES

A House of a Different Color

In Santa Clara County, the median home is worth $1.62M, according to the Zillow Home Value Index. Over the three months ending May 2026, Santa Clara County home prices were down 4.9 percent compared to the same period last year, selling for a median price of $1.6M, according to data from Redfin. On average, homes in Santa Clara County sell after 15 days on the market, compared to 14 days last year. There were 1,215 homes sold in May this year, up from 1,072 last year.

Choosing the right hue for your home By Janis Mara

Painting a home’s exterior can be both ornamental and practical, especially considering that a record-breaking El Nino is predicted to hit the Bay Area in October. Here are some tips to make choosing the color painless. “Painting the home’s exterior protects it, making it a smart investment that can last for years,” said veteran Bay Area real estate agent Maggie Resnick, who is getting ready to have her own home painted. “Finding the right color makes all the difference.” When considering the color, Resnick says the first thing to do is to take a look at nearby homes. “You don’t want to clash with the colors of the homes near you, and you don’t want to choose the same colors,” the Realtor said. Another factor: Your roof color. A shingle roof can have not just one, but

many colors, and it’s important for the house to be compatible with them, Resnick said. It’s also a good idea to choose colors that are, if not historically accurate, at least consistent with the house’s style and era. Homeowners should look before they leap, she said. “Before you spend hundreds of dollars on the paint, be sure you put up a sample on the exterior,” she said. The most important part is going to be the front, so test out colors you’re considering there. Be sure to try the side too, since one side typically will be in the sun and the other in the shade. You can find small cans of paint at your neighborhood paint store. Benjamin Moore offers 8-ounce color sample jars for around six or seven dollars. The tiny containers hold real paint in an eggshell finish. Also, you can use online tools to see how your house would look in different

colors. You upload a photo of the house, then try on a variety of hues. Just google “color visualizer” to find the tools. Traditionally, homes are painted with a basic color, called the field color, for most of the house, with accent colors on the doors and trim color on window and door casings and roof edging. A new trend that Resnick is considering for her own home is painting the home all one color. “When you drive around now you’ll find some houses that have followed this trend. It doesn’t chop the house so much into pieces. It looks like more of a unified whole,” the agent said. She said the look only works on certain kinds of homes, so be sure to try it out using the color visualizer. Another option she strongly recommends: A color consultant. To find a color consultant, check with paint stores like Sherwin-Williams or Benjamin Moore for virtual or instore guidance, or look for local designers online.

NOB HILL CITES SALES AND ECONOMY AS REASONS FOR LEAVING IN 2027 Groceries, from page 1 Photo courtesy of Cilkers Real Estate

NEW GROCERY San Franciso based Gus’s Community Markets to open new store in Los Gatos in 2027. Here is what an achitect says it will look like.

Founded as a family agricultural and real estate company in 1945, Cilker is a Los Gatos-based real estate-centered multiple-family office providing asset and property management services. Gus’s Community Market first opened as Haight Street Market in 1981 in San Francisco’s Haight Ashbury neighborhood. Founded by the late Gus Vardakastanis, his wife Georgia and his father, the market set out to provide locals with a place to serve their families, meet neighbors and create relationships. Gus’s sons, Dimitri and Bobby Vardakastanis, who came up in the grocery business under the careful tutelage of their father, currently oversee the family business. Gus’s currently includes five store locations in San Francisco on Noriega Street, Haight Street, Harrison Street, Channel Street and Canyon Market.

91-year-old grocery company has seven other locations in the Bay Area, seven on the Central Coast and 235 nationwide.. At the same time, one of San Francisco’s prime custom grocery companies, Gus’s Community Market, announced it will open its first South Bay store at the former Whole Foods site, one block away in the Cornerstone Shopping Center. Los Gatos also is served by a large Safeway store on the east side of Highway 17 near downtown. Specialty grocer Lundardi’s is located about five blocks north of the new Whole Foods site. Earlier this month, Sand Hill Property Company announced the sale of the Cornerstone site for $46 million. A Raley’s spokesperson said the decision to leave Los Gatos came after Raley’s reviewed the store’s performance and current economic conditions. Raley’s opened its first grocery store in Placerville in 1935 and grew in California and Nevada before expanding to more states through grocery store acquisitions. Cilker, a Los Gatos-based real estate asset and property management company, this week was to announce the plans of Gus’s Community Market to open its specialty store in Los Gatos in 2027. The family-owned San Francisco grocer known for fresh groceries and neighborhood service has signed a lease for 18,000-square-foot space at Cornerstone Shopping Center. That’s not the only new business at the prime retail Los Gatos Boulevard site. The addition of Gus’s Community Market follows the opening this year of Club Studio, set to open next month, at the same Cornerstone center. Club Studio fitness center combines boutique exercise classes with wellness services Cilkers Vice President Mary Egan said the new businesses at the former Whole Foods site represent “a strategic repositioning of the property” by bringing in two new community-minded businesses while managing the departing transition of two legacy establishments, Whole Foods and Rite Aid. “For decades, this top-tier center has been a pride of ownership for the investment group,” said Keyston Smith, CEO and President of Cilker. “We are thrilled to successfully complete the strategic asset management and leasing plan that brings new and vibrant tenants to the Uptown Los Gatos community.” “Cornerstone is a beautiful upscale shopping center that still retains the original small town, friendly, and relaxed feel of Los Gatos that we all love,” said Dr. Stacey Hein, an internal medicine practitioner with an office located near the shopping center.

WAYMO AUTONOMOUS TAXIS REACH INTO NORTH 40

Waymo, from page 1

Drew Penner/Los Gatan

“Currently, our fully autonomous service area in the Bay Area stretches from San Francisco to San Jose. This covers a 300-square-mile region and includes many neighborhoods in between, including parts of Los Gatos,” Karp said. Los Gatos Residents can currently request pickups and drop-offs within the North 40 neighborhood through the Waymo app. As Waymo’s footprint expands farther into Los Gatos, town officials will have little say over when and where those boundaries are drawn. State regulators, like the Department of Motor Vehicles and the Public Utilities Commission, instead oversee autonomous vehicle approval and deployment in California. “I think one of the big challenges is that the town didn't ask for this, and yet our police officers, for instance, have to get up to speed very quickly on how to deal with this technology,” Mayor Rob Moore said. Los Gatos police have received formal training from Waymo representatives on how to safely navigate interactions with autonomous vehicles if they encounter them on call or while conducting traffic-related duties, according to an email from the Town. Waymo has also reached out to Santa Clara County’s fire department to familiarize them with the technology, Moore said. “Police and fire emergencies often evolve very quickly and can be very complicated. I just want to make sure that our [first responders] have all of the resources they need to deal with these, like they would deal with any other vehicle,” Moore said. He said his priority is to ensure the autonomous vehicles offer a “net benefit” for the residents. The inherent safety aspects of a driverless vehicle — its inability to drive impaired or distracted, adherence to the speed limit and constant 360-degree awareness — are the most compelling aspects of Waymo’s expansion, Moore said. A Los Gatos male recently suspected of driving under the influence was arrested Aug. 4 after crashing into a vehicle and killing the driver on Highway 17 in Campbell, according to the California Highway Patrol. Waymo vehicles were found in late June to be involved in 68% fewer crashes per vehicle mile traveled than human drivers, according to a study by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, an independent nonprofit that conducts vehicle safety research. David Kidd, vice president for vehicle research at IIHS, said the organization analyzed Waymo vehicle crashes most likely to be reported to the police — those with more severe outcomes, such as injury or property damage — to calculate the percentage. As these automated vehicles expand into suburban areas, Kidd said there will be new “edge cases” the vehicles encounter.

WHICH WAY WAYMO? The Los Gatan spotted this Waymo taxi driving through town recently, and local officials are concerned they may be unable to regulate the new transportation option.

He added that autonomous vehicles operate in more ideal conditions, such as better-mapped roadways, so there will be more attention to the construction of those streets. “[Urban areas] are going to receive a little bit more money or attention from local jurisdictions to keep them in working order than perhaps your extremely rural roadway that may be in disrepair,” said Kidd. Kidd said cities need to make sure they have access to the right information to take action when faced with an automated vehicle-related incident or encounter. “Do they know how many miles are be-

ing traveled in their area? Do they know how many times that automated vehicle has caused a disturbance in traffic flow or an issue with emergency response?” Kidd said. The more collaboration an automated vehicle company has with a town it expands into, the better, he said. Moore said the police and public works department will work with Waymo to ensure pickup and drop-off zones and times are optimal, particularly in more congested areas, such as downtown and schools. Downtown Los Gatos, especially in the summer months, has significant traffic issues, said Moore.

“We have seen in cities like San Francisco how Waymos can really worsen traffic when there are power outages or emergency situations — and that would be a real headache for people in town,” Moore said. Moore also said he has concerns for residents who drive for Uber that could potentially lose their jobs. “I think though the reality is that Waymo is coming to Los Gatos — it already exists in Los Gatos,” Moore said. “They are here, and we are going to have to figure out how we can best work with Waymo to make sure that the technology is of benefit to people in town.”

WILDCATS AIM TO CONTINUE RUN OF GREAT SUCCESS Los Gatos boys are among the elite squads in Central Coast Section Emanuel Lee, Sports Editor

RISING Los Gatos High sophomore TR Engelman is one of two returning starters for a program that has made four consecutive CCS Open Division playoff appearances. File photo

DIFFERENCE-MAKER Wildcats senior Richard Runge, seen here in action last season, is a standout both offensively and defensively.

Over the last four seasons, the Los Gatos High School boys water polo program has proven itself to be one of the best in the Central Coast Section, qualifying for the premier Open Division playoffs in each year—the only public school to do so. In f a c t , o n l y f o u r o t h e r p u b l i c schools—Santa Cruz, Soquel, Los Altos and Palo Alto—have competed in the Open during that span (Santa Cruz in 2024-2025, Soquel and Los Altos in 2025 and Palo Alto in 2022). Such consistency speaks to the high level of boys water polo athletes the area is producing. Though the Wildcats return just two starters off last year’s team, coach Davor Koret is adamant that this year’s group will be able to compete at a high level once again. “I’m pretty positive and optimistic about this team,” he said. “I think it’s going to be different, but I also think we can compete with any team we’re going to play against this year.” Los Gatos had games with St. Francis and Valley Christian during the summer league season, which gave Koret an indication of his team’s ability to match up against the section’s elite. Speaking of elite, Wildcats senior Richard Runge—who recently committed to play at UC Davis—will no doubt be the center of attention for opposing teams. Whereas Runge played multiple positions the last three years as a utility, this season Los Gatos will try to utilize more of his offensive repertoire. Runge had an impressive summer playing for his 18U club team, which finished fourth in the Junior Olympics platinum division. “I think we’ll put him in some positions where he can contribute toward more of the scorer’s part,” Koret said. “This year we need him to step up and

help out as much on offense as he has helped out on defense the last three seasons. I would say he’s a top-three player in our league, and I know all eyes will be on him. We’ll need our young guys to step up and do the simple things right.” The Wildcats’ only other returning starter, sophomore TR Engelman, gained invaluable experience this summer competing with the U.S. 16-and-under ‘B’ national team, Koret said. Engelman was also a member of the Stanford 16U club team that won the Junior Olympics platinum division. Immediately after that, Engelman joined the USA Cadet national team for a tournament in Serbia. He’ll play a vital role as a right wing and weak side driver. “TR comes now as a much more experienced player,” Koret said. “He brings a lot of confidence and experience next to Richard, and I think he’s going to be our second most influential player.” In junior Dominic Hwang, Los Gatos has an experienced goalie who has the potential to be a game-changer. “This is probably the first time in my eighth season here where we’re going to have a goalie that has been actually practicing goalie for a few years,” Koret said. “This is a position where I think we can rely more on than in the past. Our defense will be much better and different than in previous years. We can play more zone defense and help our guards because Dominic has improved a ton. I think he’ll be our defensive organizer and we’ll be able to run a lot of different stuff that we didn’t do as much in the past.” Junior Owen Malone and sophomore Pasha Heidari both saw game action last year and are expected to make a bigger impact this season. Heidari possesses a rocket for a shot and Malone has returned not just a year older, but a year better. Sophomore Gabriel Oliveira is projected as the team’s main two-meter player. Even though Oliveira didn’t play significant minutes last season, his game has grown and so have the expectations surrounding him. “He’s going to try to replace Ryan Madsen,” Koret said, referring to the former LGHS standout. “He’s not Ryan Madsen yet, but I think he has plenty of time to get to that level.” After winning the SCVAL De Anza regular-season and playoff tournament in 2025, Koret expects the Wildcats to be in contention for the title again. They play their season-opener at Gunn High on Sept. 8. “I think the league is going to be more even than last year, and Homestead will be an interesting team to play and watch out for,” Koret said. “But I still believe Harker, Los Altos and ourselves are the top three teams in the league.”
