here have been 41 deaths at the San Luis Obispo County and Santa Barbara County jails since 2000.

IMAGE COURTESY OF THE CITY OF SLO

he same developer behind two controversial projects already under construction in San Luis Obispo is eyeing another: a four-story mixed-use project at 790 Foothill Blvd.

LR Development Group, an El Segundo-based company, submitted the plans for 78 units of housing and 6,800 square feet of ground floor commercial/retail space. The project would be developed on three parcels, including the current location of Blackhorse Espresso and Bakery.

Developer Loren Riehl told New Times the project represents the type of “infill” housing SLO’s looking for.

“This specific lot has been mentioned as being appropriate for this type of development, so we believe the location will receive support,” Riehl said in an email on April 24.

The plans call for a 43-foot building—eight feet taller than the city zoning code allows—a 35 percent density bonus, and 90 percent lot coverage—a maximum of 75 percent is normally allowed. Those exceptions are under consideration since the project would provide 12 housing units for very low-income renters. State law requires cities to allow a density bonus, specifically, if a project has a certain percentage of affordable units, according to city officials.

As an infill development, the project is exempt from environmental review under CEQA (the California Environmental Quality Act).

Riehl said he’s open to feedback from city residents and officials on the design of his project. The SLO Architectural Review

Commission is scheduled to review the plans on May 7.

After that, it will go to the Planning Commission, then the City Council for approval.

“We have worked diligently to address the issues brought up during other public hearings, and we will always keep an open mind throughout the public hearing process,” Riehl said.

DA warns sanitation district of Brown Act violation

after receiving a letter from the SLO County District Attorney’s Office, which stated that the original interview sessions were held outside of the district’s boundaries in violation of the Brown Act. The interviews were originally held April 7 during a closed session meeting at the Courtyard Marriott in SLO. The sanitation district’s boundaries include Arroyo Grande, Grover Beach, and Oceano. According to the Brown Act, regular meetings and special meetings for government agencies must be held within the area where they exercise jurisdiction.

Grover Beach, the northernmost city in the district’s jurisdiction, is about 12 miles from the hotel in SLO. In an April 17 letter sent to the board, SLO County Deputy District Attorney Michael Frye said he’d reviewed documents related to the meeting and called on the board to correct the violation.

“Further violations may result in legal action,” Frye wrote.

At the April 18 meeting, district Legal Counsel Gil Trujillo said that the venue for the interview was chosen by a recruiter with CPS HR Consulting, a company contracted by the district to search for a new administrator.

Trujillo said that the recruiter was originally going to use Grover Beach City Hall, but it became unavailable, and the location was changed to the hotel.

“It was a good faith mistake by the recruiter,” Trujillo said.

Some residents of the sanitation district said they showed up at the April 7 meeting to inform the board of the violation. While the interviews proceeded despite those warnings, board member and Arroyo Grande Mayor Jim Hill did

The South SLO County Sanitation District’s board of directors has to re-interview candidates for its top administrative position after the first round of interviews violated the state’s open meetings laws.

The three-member board voted unanimously April 18 to redo interviews with six candidates vying for a job as the district’s administrator

not attend, citing concerns over violating the Brown Act. The board has been searching for a new administrator since August 2017, when former administrator Gearhardt Hubner resigned.

Board member Linda Austin hoped that agreeing to hold the interviews again would help the process move forward and get the matter of the violation resolved before a new administrator was hired.

“I don’t want a new person to come in under this cloud,” Austin said.

In addition to agreeing to re-interview the candidates, the board also voted to sign a letter stating that they would cease, desist, and not repeat the violation. As of April 25, the new round of interviews had not been scheduled.

Feds’ approval of new Carrizo oil well faces appeal The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) approved a 6-year-old application for new oil drilling on the Carrizo Plain National Monument last month, prompting an appeal by environmental organizations claiming the federal agency skirted its environmental review obligations.

The drilling proposed by E&B Natural Resources, a Bakersfield-based energy company, is set within an existing oil lease and well pad located at the southwestern edge of the monument in the Russell Ranch Oil Field. The current well on the site hasn’t produced since 1949, according to the BLM. E&B’s plan to drill a new well on the pad and possibly replace an aging pipeline received approval by the BLM on March 16.

“They’re reusing the same footprint, and that was the goal from the get-go,” said Gabe Garcia, the field manager at the BLM’s Central California office in Bakersfield.

But environmental advocates are blasting the BLM’s approval as coming without proper review of the oil well’s impacts on endangered species and monument aesthetics.

Jeff Kuyper, director of the nonprofit Los Padres ForestWatch, which filed an appeal of the decision jointly with the Center for Biological Diversity on April 18, told New Times the oil project could impact the San Joaquin kit fox, giant kangaroo rat, and California condor populations, as well as rare plants like the Kern mallow. The operation would also be within view of visitors of the monument, the appeal states.

“The drilling process itself is intensive,” Kuyper said. “But even when the well is drilled and all the equipment, vehicles, and workers leave, it still requires visits, traffic, and maintenance. All those things can have an impact.”

Kuyper said the BLM violated the Carrizo Plain’s management plan by declining to consult with the U.S. Department of Fish and Wildlife on the application.

“The BLM and oil industry agreed there’d be higher standards involved before oil drilling is allowed inside the boundaries of the national monument,” Kuyper said.

Garcia said the BLM declined to consult with Fish and Wildlife because their cultural and biological surveys of the site found no presence of endangered species or plants.

“It didn’t meet our thresholds for consultation,” he said.

E&B first filed the oil well application with the BLM in 2012. Then in 2016, the company asked to abandon (to fill with cement) the existing well on the pad as well as another well in the oil field, Garcia said. He said that E&B’s request for abandonment was misreported as having been a request to “restore” the oil pad, which would’ve meant restoring the entire site back to its natural state.

“There’s a bit of confusion on that,” Garcia said.

But Kuyper said the company’s abandonment application and the years-long delay by the BLM indicated to the public that the new oil project had been tabled.

“At that point we and rest of the public thought, ‘Great, the drilling proposal is off the table,’” Kuyper said. “For whatever reason, the oil company had a change of heart, and BLM went along with it.”

The state director of the BLM is charged with reviewing the appeal, Kuyper said.

According to a New Times count in 2017, the Carrizo Plain National Monument is home to 13 active oil wells, which were grandfathered in when the Clinton administration created the monument in 2001.

E&B Natural Resources did not respond to a request for comment by press time.

According to its website, the company produces 11,500 barrels of oil per day from 25-plus oil and gas fields in California, Louisiana, Kansas, and Wyoming.

Claim accuses county of neglect in latest inmate death

San Luis Obispo County is under fire again for its alleged role in the death of a jail inmate.

The wife of Russell Hammer, a 62-year-old inmate who died in the jail in November 2017, filed a claim for damages against the county alleging that her husband suffered “horrible and inhumane treatment” that led to his death.

According to the claim, Hammer was suffering from Parkinson’s disease and several other physical and mental health problems when he was arrested

by Morro Bay police on Nov. 6, 2017, for domestic violence. Hammer was taken to Sierra Vista Regional Medical Center for medical clearance before being booked into the SLO jail. After being booked, Hammer was isolated and placed in a solitary “safety cell,” where he spent the next two days alone without any of his prescribed medications, the claim states.

Hammer’s mental condition deteriorated to the point where he began eating his own feces at the command of his auditory hallucinations.

The claim states that Hammer was taken to the county’s Psychiatric Health Facility (PHF) for treatment on Nov. 8, and he was also seen at French Hospital before being retuned to the jail two days later.

According to a coroner’s investigation and autopsy report, Hammer died of a pulmonary embolism, or blood clot, due to deep vein thrombosis in his left leg on Nov. 27. A medical examiner ruled his death as natural, but the claim alleges that Hammer’s death was the result neglect and mistreatment. It alleges that jail and medical staff erratically administrated medication and ignored signs and risk factors that Hammer was suffering from deep vein thrombosis.

In a written response to questions from New Times, SLO County Legal Counsel Rita Neal said the county had received the claim and will be rejecting it.

Hammer’s wife can file a civil lawsuit in court.

“In the event that litigation is filed after the claim is rejected, we will vigorously defend the county, our employees, and officials,” Neal wrote.

The county has rejected the majority of jail-related claims. Of the 31 jail-related claims, including Hammer’s, filed in the last 20 years, the county has only paid out on four of them. The largest payout was $5 million in connection with the death of Andrew Holland, a mentally ill inmate who died of an embolism after being strapped in a restraint chair for 46 hours in January of 2017.

Paso may join suit against state ‘sanctuary’ law

The Paso Robles City Council will decide on May 1 whether to take action against California’s “sanctuary” law— including whether to join other cities and counties in a federal lawsuit against it— after a group of city residents shredded the law at a meeting on April 17.

“We’re going to find out very soon where each of you stands on this. This is the most important issue,” resident Michael Rivera said at the meeting. “We are hamstringing our police force and putting our citizens at risk.”

6 • New Times • April 26 - May 3, 2018 • www.newtimesslo.com

According to a Paso Police Department report, Senate Bill 54 “generally prohibits law enforcement agencies from using agency money, personnel, or resources ... for immigration enforcement purposes.”

Paso Police Chief Robert Burton stated that the law “has not resulted in any significant changes” at the department, “nor are any anticipated in the future.”

Burton explained that people arrested in Paso are transferred to county jail, outside the city’s jurisdiction, and officers then file case reports at the District Attorney’s Office.

“Paso Robles police officers are not trained in immigration enforcement,” Burton said. “We don’t have the ability to detain folks simply because we think they may be here illegally.”

But residents opposed to the law said they felt “under attack,” that the law “created a major public safety issue,” and that it was “disrespectful to the rule of law.”

Several called on the City Council to join the federal lawsuit filed against the state by U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions, an action taken by Orange and San Diego counties and cities like Newport Beach and Huntington Beach.

“I know this would be an expensive fight, but there are times you have to fight and spend the money,” one resident said.

While nearly all the speakers at the meeting opposed SB 54, one resident voiced concerns about how law enforcement might treat people of color if the city were to defy the new law.

“How would this be enforced? Are the police going to pull people over because the color of their skin?” she asked. “My husband is an immigrant who just became a citizen. He’s a businessman in the community. They are beautiful people.”

A City Council discussion on the issue is agendized for May 1.

Morro Bay keeps vacation rentals capped

Morro Bay residents asked for strict regulation of vacation rentals at the April 24 City Council meeting.

“I want to live in a community that welcomes and accommodates families with children,” Carol Swin said during public comment. “We wholeheartedly welcome tourists to Morro Bay … we can coexist here, just not in our residential neighborhoods.”

Swin said that she currently lives in a single-family residential zoned neighborhood that consists of families with children. Her main concern is with

the interim tenants that she and other neighbors aren’t familiar with who occupy the rentals in her neighborhood.

The council voted to extend the current vacation rental urgency ordinance (initially passed in 2016)—continuing the cap of 250 vacation rentals within city limits.

Councilmembers Marlys McPherson and John Headding were appointed to a council subcommittee to communicate with the public and various stakeholders on the issue.

In 2016, there were 170 legally operating vacation rentals in Morro Bay. Community Development Director Scot Graham said there was talk of about 70 to 80 more rentals that weren’t registered, but once the city established the urgency ordinance that June, the 250-cap was hit within a few months.

He said the city is working on a comprehensive draft ordinance—which is intended to be complete by September— creating permanent regulations for vacation rentals in the city.

Private funding sought for jail mental health unit

As the San Luis Obispo County Sheriff’s Office continues its attempts to reform mental health care for jail inmates, one local nonprofit organization says it’s raising funds to help.

The SLO County Sheriff’s Advisory Foundation announced that it is spearheading plans to raise $500,000 to retrofit jail facilities and to house a behavioral health unit. The unit will renovate a combined 8,500 square feet of existing jail space to provide behavioral health treatment and services to mentally ill inmates.

The planned unit will provide dormitory-style housing, a holding cell, renovated offices, and space for daily group and individual treatment. The facility will allow inmates to spend less time in isolated cells, and ease the impact of transportation and housing of inmates in the county’s psychiatric unit, according to the foundation.

Approximately $272,000 has been committed to the project to date, with the foundation donating $50,000 and French Medical Center committing an additional $50,000. Seeking private funds will allow the unit to become operational sooner, the foundation stated, with the goal of having the unit open by the end of this year.

Individuals who wish to donate to the facility can do so at the foundation’s website, safslo.org. Δ —Chris McGuinness

Is Your Boss Violating Your Rights?

BY PETER JOHNSON

Around the horn Candidates for District 2 county supervisor square off at Morro Bay forum

T

he race to represent the North Coast on the San Luis Obispo Board of Supervisors pins three-term incumbent Bruce Gibson against two challengers: local business owner Jeff Eckles and attorney Patrick Sparks. An April 20 forum, hosted by the Latino Outreach Council and the League of Women Voters at the Morro Bay Vets’ Hall, marked the first occasion that all three candidates vying for the District 2 seat shared a room. “I come before you with a track record that I’m proud of,� Gibson said to a full house.

First elected in 2006, Gibson touted accomplishments like completing the Los Osos sewer, rebuilding the Cayucos pier, renovating three community libraries, and navigating the county through the Great Recession. He named water management, affordable housing, and improving mental health services as his top priorities. “I’ve been around long enough to really understand how county government works,� Gibson said.

Eckles, the owner of Morro Bay House of Jerky and a former financial advisor, questioned Gibson’s effectiveness in tackling issues like homelessness and mental health. He criticized the incumbent for practicing the “politics of division� on an often-divided Board of Supervisors. “What I offer is new leadership and a fresh perspective,� Eckles said. “The incumbent’s had 12 years and he’s asking for 16 years, and I believe policy approaches have been failing. I honestly believe we can do better.�

Sparks, an attorney who noted experience working in the Atascadero State Hospital, called himself “the Republican in the group.� He named “over-expenditures� in county government as the impetus for his run. “I just can’t take it,� Sparks said. “The idea that things are OK is haunting to me.�

Several questions from the audience touched on housing issues—cost, supply, and vacation rentals. Gibson favored policies that would reduce the number of vacation rentals on the coast, which he said is impacting the long-term rental market and hurting neighborhood character. One of his proposed policies is a tax on “second empty homes.� “In general, the issue [is] there are so many of them,� Gibson said. “The effect they’ve had on housing affordability is profound.�

While Gibson backed policies like the inclusionary housing program—an ordinance that requires developers to either build a minimum number of lowerpriced units or pay fees to support other affordable housing projects—Eckles said he wants to identify “opportunity zones� in the county for developers to build. “We need to incentivize builders to build the right types of homes in the right places,� Eckles said.

Eckles has professional experience in the building industry, which includes serving as the executive director for the Central Coast Homebuilders’ Association

(CCHBA) and as the treasurer of the SLO County Housing Trust Fund.

Gibson chided Eckles for prior efforts to lobby the Board of Supervisors against the inclusionary housing ordinance as CCHBA’s representative. “Jeff has come before the board to advocate positions that have helped our policies fail,� Gibson said. “That program’s been starved for funds.�

While Gibson and Eckles both stated strong opposition to any offshore oil and gas drilling, Sparks said of oil drilling generally: “If it’s available in a wise, steward way, I’m all for it.�

Gibson called the Trump administration’s recent approval of oil drilling on the Carrizo Plain National Monument “a direct insult to this county.�

Eckles said he saw a “big line between offshore and onshore drilling,� but added, “as far as expansion, I wouldn’t want to see a huge expansion of onshore drilling as well.�

All three candidates expressed interest in the potential for a wind farm off SLO’s coast, with Eckles expressing some concern about the impacts to the fishing industry. “[Fishing] is the real essence and history of this area. It needs to be honored and taken care of,� Eckles said.

On reforming mental health services following the death Andrew Holland, who died in jail after spending 46 hours in a restraint chair, the candidates differed on causes and solutions. Gibson said Sheriff Ian Parkinson was “ultimately accountable� for Holland’s death, and added that while the county has rewritten policies and invested $2 million in jail health care for the next budget, “we need to change the basic culture of indifference towards the mentally ill.� Eckles, on the other hand, placed blame at the feet of the county supervisors for failing to provide better mental health services. Eckles and Sparks also blamed state prison realignment legislation for overstressing county jails.

The candidates also touched on the legalization of cannabis, which all three supported as the will of county voters.

In Eckles’ closing statement, he addressed the divide on the current Board of Supervisors, which is often split along partisan lines. “Let’s be frank ‌ there’s a divide on the board. It’s 3-2,â€? Eckles said. “The only solution I’ve heard for that is, ‘Let’s flip that majority.’ Folks, that is not a solution, that is not a path forward for healing. That’s not going to give us the best policies. We can do better.â€?

Gibson rebutted Eckles’ comments in his own closing statement. “The question for you is what kind of supervisor do you want? Are you looking for [the] healing [of] a sometimes-fractious board? Or are you looking for a supervisor who’s going to stand up for your interests?�

Gibson said. “I’m proud to have stood up for the values of this district.� Δ Staff Writer Peter Johnson can be reached at pjohnson@newtimesslo.com.

findings and alleges that custody staff refused to provide or deliver sick call forms to medical staff and that the jail’s south dormitory, which houses prisoners with serious medical needs, was dirty and crowded, with some chronically ill inmates forced to sleep on small plastic beds on the floor.

In SLO County, a grand jury raised concerns about medical services for inmates at the SLO County Jail after a string of high-profile inmate deaths in 2016 and 2017, including McLaughlin’s. According to a 2017 report, the grand jury sought significant and detailed information about inmate health and safety but found it difficult to obtain that data.

“In some cases, we were told it was simply not available,” the report stated.

The report attributes the lack of information to multiple agencies being responsible for inmate health care, including the Sheriff’s Office, SLO County Drug and Alcohol Services, and the SLO County Public Health Agency.

“Such a structure raises a concern about how well various aspects of inmate care are coordinated, especially when health issues cross multiple boundaries such as drug abuse, psychiatric care, and ongoing medical issues,” the report stated.

As part of a process to reform the jail’s medical and mental health care services, SLO County commissioned an independent review and evaluation of those services from Dr. Alfred Joshua, chief medical officer for the San Diego County Sheriff’s Office.

While the county and SLO Sheriff’s Office used Joshua’s findings to craft a number of reforms, including hiring SLO jail CMO Mulkerin, they refused to release the evaluation, denying a New Times Public Records Act request for the document.

A legal claim filed against the county by McLaughlin’s family accused the county of “decades-long deliberate indifference” to the medical needs of inmates. The claim alleged that the jail suffered from a lack of adequately trained staff; failed to develop and implement policies and procedures for how to care for ill inmates; and kept incomplete, illegible, and inadequate health records. “[McLaughlin] entered the jail as an elevated health risk,” the claim against the county stated. “[McLaughlin’s] medical condition otherwise would have been manageable with proper medication and timely and professional treatment, including a transfer to a hospital for more specialized and acute care.”

The county rejected the claim in November 2017. The family has until May to file a lawsuit.

Twenty-five percent of the medical malpractice claims filed against SLO County in the last 20 years were related to the jail.

Of those jail-related claims, nearly half alleged negligent or denied medical care.

Ryan James Johnson wasn’t surprised by the allegations. Johnson, 41, spent time in the jail in 2012 while on trial for firstdegree murder.

“The level of care at SLO County Jail, I believe, is meant to just get people through with the bare minimum,” Johnson, who is now serving a 26-years-to-life sentence in a state prison, wrote in response to questions from New Times. “I believe that the medical care is designed to focus on temporary treatment to essentially stabilize the person until they can pass them off to the next destination.”

Deadly lapses

William Meredith Harvel, 73, was disoriented and confused when he was booked into the SLO County Jail on Feb. 18, 2008, for negligently discharging a firearm. In addition to showing signs of dementia, Harvel suffered from a number of serious medical conditions including hypertension and prostate cancer.

He was put in a wheelchair and placed in a medical isolation cell. Eight days later, an X-ray revealed that Harvel had an enlarged

Safe space A cream-colored house with a lilac-colored sign sits on Marsh Street in San Luis Obispo. Aside from the sign that reads Community Counseling Center, you wouldn’t know at first glance that the little house is a safety net contributor and preventative care provider for professional affordable psychotherapy.

Executive Director James Statler said the center is unique because it doesn’t just focus on one mental illness but addresses depression, anxiety, grief, phase of life, couple’s issues, and trauma. The center also focuses on providing a service to low-income residents within San Luis Obispo County.

“There isn’t another agency that is saying, ‘Hey if you’re disenfranchised or socioeconomically challenged or don’t have insurance, we’ll cut all the red tape out and still say come in here,’” he said.

The center is celebrating 50 years and will soon move to a new location in San Luis Obispo, increasing the number of clients it can serve. The Counseling Center focuses on a short-term model when treating patients. It consists of about 10 to 15 counseling sessions for individuals with mild to moderate illnesses.

“It’s not long-term care, and we’re not fostering dependency,” Statler said. “We’re looking for people to get better, move on, and maybe see them six months later

in the community with new skills and a better life.”

He said while their program helps individuals with mild mental illness, if someone needs more than just the 10 to 15 sessions, the center refers the individual to an agency that can better assist their needs. The center also serves as a reference point, taking calls or walk-in inquiries. If staff can’t help you, they’ll point you in the direction of someone who can.

Betty Purify has been volunteering with the center since October 2014. She’s now an intern and conducting counseling sessions. Purify said she’s happy when she’s helping families and couples and can see them learning communication skills, listening to each other, agreeing on goals and creating priorities.

“One day I was downtown just driving, and all of a sudden, this couple jumps out in the middle of the street and just yells, ‘Betty, thank you for giving us our life back,’ like six months after they completed their counseling session,” Purify said.

What really drives her to come in every day are the opportunities she helps give people.

“Everyone is given that opportunity; it doesn’t matter. Race, color, income, socioeconomic status—none of that

Lassegard said the center has about 15 to 20 trainees at any one time. Students from schools like Cal Poly and the Pacifica Graduate Institute come to the center for training or internship experience.

“With full supervision, interns and trainees can work with clients from 2 years old to senior citizens,” Lassegard said.

The Community Counseling Center has offices in Paso Robles, Grover Beach, Atascadero, Santa Maria, and Cambria, with its headquarters at 1129 Marsh St. in San Luis Obispo. In August, it will move its SLO office to a therapy center at 676 Pismo St. To learn more, visit cccslo.org.

Purify said that when people walk through the door of the center, they’re always treated with respect, and confidentiality is a priority.

“We’re in 100 percent support of their goals, but I also let them know that getting here is a big part of achieving those goals,” she said.

The Community Counseling Center is not only a safe space for those seeking help with mental illness, it’s also a place for people to learn how to help others.

The SLO story A cautionary tale for the current generation of city leaders

O

nce upon a time, there was a wonderful little city: Where the air was fresh and

clean, Where there were wonderful views of nearby mountains and hills from nearly everywhere in town, Where there were beautiful mature trees shading streets and neighborhoods, Where the sound of birds and other wildlife could be heard day and night, Where open space trails were safe and wildlife enjoyed a peaceful nighttime repose, Where everyone knew their neighbors—children went to the same neighborhood schools and street parking was plentiful, Where driving across town only took a few minutes with little traffic and short stoplights, Where the sun wasn’t blocked by tall buildings while shopping downtown at locally owned stores and the smell of blossoming trees permeated the air, Where beautiful downtown buildings stood out as an example of wonderful historic architecture, Where no one had to worry if there was enough water because growth was controlled within its supply and its cost didn’t break your budget, And, most importantly, where resident voices and opinions were valued and respected by their city leaders.

HODIN

Then, one day, a celebrity came to town and declared this wonderful little city the best place to live in all the world—and things went south from there. Before you could say “oh no,” investors from all over the world soon realized that a lot of money could be made in this little city.

So leaders decided that housing for everyone and anyone who wanted to live in this lovely little town needed to be built, no matter what and the shouts of “densify” drowned out residents’ cries for help.

Investors from everywhere came; bought up land and housing as rentals for college students, charging outrageous prices; and small accessory dwelling units (even on wheels) were promoted, to make even more money.

Increased traffic and party noise drowned out the sounds of wildlife.

Street parking was lost.

Families felt forced out of their homes— those left behind no longer knew their neighbors because they changed every year.

Area farmland became a boon for developers while leaders streamlined their profits and residents were asked to pay more taxes for infrastructure.

Mature trees were chopped down to make way for huge housing developments and open space protection

was sacrificed for night users, despite concerns for wildlife.

Many worried: Is there enough water for the new growth? And watched water rates skyrocket.

Chain stores moved into downtown, forcing mom-and-pop stores out, making room for tall modern buildings that blocked those once beautiful views of mountains and hills. And that sweet smell of blossoming trees downtown?

Gone—replaced by the stench of alcohol.

But most troubling of all was that it appeared city leaders no longer really valued resident voices, but instead paid more attention to special interest groups and out-of-towners.

Now this story doesn’t have to have a tragic ending. What’s left of this wonderful little city can still be saved. All our city leaders have to do is slow down and make cautious decisions, preserving the zoning and other tools that previous leaders put into place to protect the quality of life for residents. But more importantly, give the most weight in their decision making to the voices of existing residents, their constituents, rather than to those who don’t live here and want to use this city for profit. Yes, this story can have a happy ending, if our leaders are brave enough to be heroes. It’s all up to them. ∆ Carolyn Smith needs a SLO city hero.

Attack the argument, not the man

I’m writing to express my disappointment with New Times for publishing the letter (“Shun the character assassins,” April 19) from Mr. Dawson, an obvious apostle of 4th District Supervisor Lynn Compton’s conservative agenda.

I’ve written many letters to the editor of New Times and thank you for publishing them. My letters I’ll admit have an edge and an agenda, but I don’t attack a person personally, only their positions.

I challenge the absurd positions of “dune riders” when they deny science. I grade Lynn Compton due to her positions on air quality and lockstep adherence to the Trump/Zinke offshore drilling initiatives; I did give her an “A” when she made the political calculation to deny the Phillips 66 rail terminal project. And I take issue with the banalities of Andrea Seastrand and her “dog whistle” partisan rhetoric.

But I think you are off base to print the comments of Mr. Dawson when he says, “it’s time for voters to do the right thing and shun the falsehoods of character assassins like Laurance Shinderman.”

Nothing that I sent and you printed was false, so to be characterized as a character assassin or to insinuate that my content is false is absurd.

It would be easy “pickings” to skewer Mr. Dawson and his factless letter, but he’s not the issue. He’s entitled to his own opinion but not his characterization in print that my letter’s content was false or that it was imbued with character assassination. I’ve challenged Lynn’s positions but never her character.

Don’t call me white

For most of my life, I have had a label that bothered me. I never thought to say anything because I figured that was the way it is. But now, in this era of sensitivity to other people’s feelings, I think it is time I said something. I AM NOT WHITE! I am an American of German, English, and Irish ancestry, but when I look in the mirror I see someone who is light brown. Not white. For years I have made it a policy to leave the “race” section of an application and information sheets blank. Race shouldn’t matter; we are all brown. I am light brown, there are others who are medium brown, and others who are dark brown, but we are all brown. So when speaking of me, please don’t use that offensive label.

Boycott the NRA

Recent arguments that the National Rifle Association (NRA) is not to blame for the mass shootings plaguing our schools and country are full of holes.

How? Because whenever sensible citizens even propose the regulation of the military-style assault weapons used in these massacres, the NRA dangles its cash until just enough legislators acquiesce and block or otherwise subvert the proposed regulations.

For the regulations that do happen to slip through and get passed by majorities of local voters? NRA-backed lawsuits employ disingenuous arguments that regulating assault weapons violates the Second Amendment and individual rights.

The qualifier “a well-regulated militia” aside, who in their right mind really believes our Founding Fathers would have favored granting individual rights to the unforeseen lethal capabilities of weapons like the AR-15? Does the NRA also believe I should be able to own and practice out back with rocket-propelled grenades? How about a howitzer tank?

Imagine the death toll in our neighborhoods in the face of zero auto traffic regulations. Let’s get rid of stop signs and traffic lights while we’re at it.

Now imagine an organization whose main purpose has morphed into preventing regulation of traffic because—say—fast cars sell, time is money, and individuals have the right to get from point A to point B as fast as they can or want, public safety be damned. Don’t tell me that organization would not be responsible for the mounting death toll.

Until the NRA leadership does an about-face and endorses buy-back programs and the common sense gun regulations the majority in our country now demand, their organization is very much to blame and should be ostracized and boycotted as an unethical sponsor of domestic terrorism.

Arroyo Grande oil field is a net water producer

Concerned about water supply? Keep the oil field in operation.

What does oil production in San Luis Obispo County have to do with water supply? Well, our one oil field of note—the Arroyo Grande Oil Field—is a net producer of water. Approximately

How do you feel about Cal Poly suspending all sororities and fraternities?

41% Good riddance. They’ve caused too much trouble at that school.

27% They should’ve only suspended frats that actually did something wrong.

19% This is an overreaction. I don’t think any of them should be suspended.

500,000 gallons of highly purified water are released into Pismo Creek each day.

This supply of water is a steady, droughtproof resource that has been reliably flowing for years.

The oil field’s water reclamation facility is an example of a locally permitted project that went into operation after thorough review by our county CEQA process. The result is not only a highquality water supply but well-paying jobs right here on the Central Coast. Twenty men and women along with another 100plus contractors make their living in support of our county’s oil production.

The Arroyo Grande Oil Field is a local source of energy, a reliable supply of fresh water into the Pismo Creek watershed, and raw materials to pave our roads, build our homes, and much more. We would do well to see the Arroyo Grande Oil Field continue into its second century of operations.

Roots vs. symptoms of systemic racism Systemic racism from businesses, schools, and police has always been problematic. Change won’t occur unless we unabashedly attack the root sources. The reverberations are substantially felt. Minorities are victimized in these situations; still, a larger portion of the victimization is given to white antagonists. They mostly equate their acts of racism with fear and ignorance. Symptomatic fixes usually consist of apologies, suspensions, expulsions, terminations, rare arrests, or explanations. The system itself makes acts of racism excusable and seem like harmless mistakes in an enabling culture. Drastic actions will be fraught with backlash from a populace still clinging on to archaic laws.

Here are excuses and plausible ways to solve this issue: • Unknowingly performing a racist act: Hence, we need education that espouses cultural acceptance, such as mandatory ethnic studies in learning institutions.

• Actions that are permissible due to the First and Second Amendments: The practice of archaic laws lacking relevancy in a diverse culture struggling to find equality needs to be addressed. If the First Amendment is to continually dissolve in the face of racism, then it needs to be rewritten. It should clearly

state that it’s against the conveyance of racial communication that incites violence and intimidation. The Second Amendment needs to be abolished altogether because it makes it legal to kill in the name of racism.

It’s time to shift the cultural course toward acceptance and equality. Dealing with systemic racism by attacking the roots is the answer, not just “fixing” the symptoms on an irregular basis.

What stance should the Paso Robles City Council take on the state “sanctuary” law on May 1? m Oppose it. The law is handcuffing our police departments. m Support it. The Trump administration is unfairly targeting immigrants, and SB 54 is a good countermeasure. m Do nothing. This has little to no effect on city police operations. m Join the federal lawsuit against the state. This sanctuary crap is unconstitutional!

I find your comments deplorable, but I will defend to the death your right to say them. Paraphrasing comments attributed to Voltaire.

The Shredder appears to believe that it is the ultimate determination of what constitutes free speech (“Oops, they did it again!” April 12). You have every right to your opinions, but to ask the administration of Cal Poly to adopt rules restricting free speech is asking them to violate the First Amendment of the United States Constitution. Is that what you intended?

How is it free speech if those who exercise it must be held accountable (punished) for doing it? That sounds more like controlled speech, not free. To propose such control and claiming it is free speech seems to be a very convoluted thought process.

The First Amendment prohibits Cal Poly as a government agency from

making a law or infringing on the rights of citizens to exercise their constitutional right to free speech. I believe that Cal Poly, as part of the California State University System, receives some funding from the federal government and consequently is an agency of that government.

What you describe as having transpired on the campus or by some students may be determined by some (myself included, to some extent) as unacceptable behavior. Even such behavior is still protected. It appears that the Shredder and many progressives believe that only they are allowed to define free speech to the extent that any opposing points of view are unacceptable (hate speech).

It seems that lately the left calls anyone they disagree with a racist.

Doing so has only diluted that term to the extent that it has lost all serious meaning. The Shredder should be cautious in name-calling. Most of us learned before high school that doing so only demeans the person that does it.

Rhetoric&Reason

BY AL FONZI

Threat to liberty

L

et’s just ban everything, jail everyone who disagrees, or better yet, not simply defeat the opposition, obliterate them! Such are the sentiments being expressed in print, in speech, and manifesting themselves in legislation in the Golden State.

We are a divided people and, I fear, hopelessly divided. How this ends does not bode well for anyone who simply wishes to be left alone, as progressives will not allow you to be neutral. You will conform, you will comply, and you will celebrate, or else!

The latest overreach by the state’s progressive/liberal Democrats in the Legislature is Assembly Bill 2943, which has thus far passed through two committees where once sanity ruled and such a bill would never see the light of day.

AB 2943 bans books with subject matter with which the bills authors disagree. More specifically, it attempts to prohibit the sale of any material, under the auspices of consumer fraud, any publication that addresses gender, gender reassignment, or any of the orthodoxy of the LGBT community. It codifies in law as accepted scientific fact that gender is not biologically established at birth but may be determined at a later date. The fact that no scientific theory is ever absolutely definitively proven, let alone beyond any future scientific inquiry, goes against 500 years of scientific inquiry.

This bill is simply another attempt to silence conservative opposition to the militant LGBT agenda by criminalizing political and medical disagreements regarding the transgender lifestyle. There is a vast body of science contradicting the LGBT agenda promoting the transgender movement. It describes the serious physiological and psychological risks posed for children and adults subjected to radical hormonal gender transformation drugs and procedures, especially if rendered before or during puberty.

Society needs to have all the information available on such life-altering procedures, yet this bill seeks to criminalize discussion of the issue by banning under the auspices of consumer fraud the sale of any material contradicting LGBT orthodoxy on the subject.

AB 2943 also takes direct aim at the religious communities in the state that have internal book shops within their ministries and would shut them down under threat of fines or imprisonment for pastors. I would imagine that the first targets of this law would be Christian bookstores that provide a wide variety of materials on current social issues, especially those topics regarding sexuality and the Christian life. To the glee of militant atheists, even the Bible might be prohibited for sale in California due to its very stringent and specific prohibitions on any sexual conduct outside of marriage between

a biological man and woman. Those who think that is absurd need only look to Canada which has long since banned specific books of the Bible from being used in sermons, such as the Book of Romans which quite emphatically addresses sexual sin along with other moral issues. Canadian pastors who violated this prohibition have found themselves facing significant fines and jail for breaches of Canadian “hate speech” laws.

Would such a law pass muster in the courts as a violation of the First Amendment’s protection of freedom of the press, religion, and speech? It shouldn’t but this is California, and the state Supreme Court and the federal Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals are heavily dominated by ideological progressives, not known for their tolerance of issues of religious conscience or speech. This is a state where an attempt to ban Karl Marx’s Communist Manifesto or even Hitler’s Mein Kampf would be vigorously opposed by civil liberty groups, but in the case of defending religious speech and publications, I hold little hope for fidelity to the Constitution.

At the U.S. Supreme Court level, I believe the current court majority would overwhelmingly strike down any attempt at government censorship of religious or political speech. A future court however, packed with progressive Democrat appointees, lends no such assurance. Past and current progressive justices have voiced reservations about the relevance of the Bill of Rights in a modern era.

As a political movement, Progressives have a history of intolerance toward

anyone in disagreement with their agenda. Democrat/progressive President Woodrow Wilson (1913-1921) actually employed more than 100,000 citizen monitors to report on neighbors who voiced criticism of Wilson’s war policies during WWI. People were imprisoned under his sedition laws, which forbade any criticism of the government and its policies during the war, according to Jonah Goldberg in his book Liberal Fascism: The Secret History of the American Left.

Progressives have pretty much taken over the California Democratic Party.

According to my sources, they demand rigid ideological conformity on a host of issues and the harshest discipline for those not toeing the party line. AB 2943 is just their latest assault against the First Amendment and Californians’ right of free speech and religious conscience.

The right to read what you want to read, speak your mind in public, or privately and freely exercise religious conscience is your cherished birthright.

If you allow government to censor ideas, even those with which you vehemently disagree, all of your rights will be at risk of being lost forever as will your right to protest any policy or law enacted by any leader, including President Trump. ∆ Al Fonzi is an Army lieutenant colonel of military intelligence who had a 35year military career, serving in both the Vietnam and Iraq wars.

The Shredder

Two wrongs make a right, right?

A

t 4:20 p.m. on 4/20, I was way too busy smoking some super dank and totally legal weed to notice that some daredevil graffiti artist had jumped over the guardrail to spray paint “Cal Poly racist hicks” on the Union Pacific Railroad bridge over Monterey Street, in SLO Town. If I had seen it, I would have been like, “Dude (or dudeette)! That bridge is, like, 20-feet high! Be careful, bro (or bro-ette)!”

I assume the graffiti artist was upset over all the racist B.S. happening up at Cal Poly, from frat bros in blackface and faux gang attire to the N-word scrawled in a men’s room and prodiversity posters vandalized and in some cases replaced with racist posters.

The screed was quickly painted over, but two days later, another graffiti artist spraypainted a couple of swastikas and “Cal Poly liberal pussies” in the same location.

Sigh. What can I say? For one, the leftwing vandal had a much smoother and stylish tagging style. The right-wing vandal made malformed swastikas and exhibited poor planning. It looked more like “Cal Pop” than “Cal Poly.” Also, the swastikas? Seems a tad aggressive, not to mention it makes the sloganeer look like a Nazi ass-hat.

They’re both defacing private property (bad!), but looking like an anti-racist (and apparently anti-hick) vandal seems better than looking like a white supremacist misogynist vandal … misogynist because calling someone a “pussy” suggests that having a vagina is bad. Hey,

Nazi asshat, your mother has a vagina!

The bottom line is this ongoing racist dustup shows no sign of settling down.

On April 25, the L.A. Times ran a story called, “After blackface incident, minority students at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo say they don’t feel welcome.” Yikes! That’s not going to help minority enrollment!

The article noted that Cal Poly has an African-American population of only 0.7 percent of the student body, which is the lowest percentage in the Cal State system. Yikes! I guess the move to diversify Poly hasn’t picked up much steam since 2015, when AfricanAmerican students also made up less than 1 percent of the student body.

Surprised? That’s a big fat nope!

It probably doesn’t help that the Cal Poly College Republicans continue to push provocation over policy. The club is moving ahead with a scheduled Fake News panel discussion in Mott Gym on April 26, featuring right-wing provocateur Milo “Pedophilia is Peachy” Yiannopoulos (yawn, last year wasn’t boring enough for you guys!), as well as conservative YouTube show hosts Austen “Fleccas” Fletcher and Carl “Sargon of Akkad” Benjamin.

Hey look! They got actual fake newsmakers to come, but shouldn’t some real journalists attend to counter their non-truthiness?

More importantly, shouldn’t the College Republicans act like responsible members of the university community and hold a forum that promotes an actual discussion rather

than expensive division?

It cost the Cal State system $55,400 in added law enforcement presence during Milo’s 2017 visit. According to Cal Poly University Police Chief George Hughes, it’ll cost $100,000 this time around … $100K so a handful of conservative Cal Poly students can get their jollies triggering their “liberal pussy” classmates at a time when the campus is roiling? Wow, your parents ought to be really proud. Clap, clap.

In the face of all the recent racism and Milo’s unwelcome return, a new student group called Drylongso Collective has delivered a list of demands to Cal Poly. They want $155,400—an amount equal to that spent protecting Milo’s last and upcoming visits—to be spent on LGBTQ and women’s programs. The group also demanded, among other things, an endowed Ethnic Studies Department professorship; new hires in Ethnic Studies, Queer Studies, and Women and Gender Studies; increased funding for all cultural clubs (except those aligned with Zionist ideology … hmm, is that anti-Semitic?); and a graduation requirement that all students attend Ethnic Studies. They also demanded the expulsion of the students photographed in blackface and racist garb (umm … don’t you think that’s a bit much?).

Tensions are higher than I was on 4/20!

Dear white people, please unclench. Yes, you’ll soon lose your stranglehold on being the

majority, but maybe it’s time to embrace diversity. Up in Paso Robles, some conservatives are freaking out over “illegal aliens,” or as non-assholes call them, “undocumented workers doing the jobs you don’t want.”

These xenophobic, er, I mean patriotic citizens want Paso to join other fear-mongering California cities suing the state over SB 54 the so-called “Sanctuary State” law.

As retiring Paso Robles Police Chief Robert Burton told citizens, his department sends those arrested to the SLO County Jail, so the issue for Paso is moot. According to SLO County Sheriff Ian Parkinson, who for the record isn’t a fan of SB 54 (and neither is his opponent Greg Clayton), only 2 percent of the current jail population is undocumented immigrants. This isn’t exactly a sky-is-falling issue for us. In fact, the Migration Policy Institute estimates the unauthorized immigrant population in SLO County is only about 10,000 total, which means just 3.55 percent of our county population is undocumented.

Look, can all you racist crackers please stop freaking the fuck out! Sweet baby Jesus! You’re embarrassing the rest of the white folk. ∆ The Shredder is the least racist machine Donald Trump knows. Send ideas and comments to shredder@newtimesslo.com.

f you want your heart broken, watch La Santa Cecilia’s video for their song “ICE El Hielo.” It’s a beautiful Spanish language ballad, and even if you’re Spanish-challenged, the video makes clear it’s about how Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and U.S. immigration policies are instilling fear in undocumented workers and tearing families apart.

Featuring a largely undocumented immigrant cast, the video opens with Hispanic families starting their day as Marisol Hernandez sings, “Eva passing the rag over the table, there she is,/ Taking care that everything shines like a pearl/ (So) when the boss comes, she does not complain again./ Don’t let it be that she accuses her of being illegal.”

When the chorus hits, you see the band and Hernandez singing, “ICE is loose over those streets./ We never know when it will be our turn./ They cry, the children cry at the doorway./ They cry when they see that their mother will not come back.”

The video culminates in an ICE raid on a restaurant, arresting a hardworking but undocumented mother. It’s heartrending.

Don’t think, however, that La Santa Cecilia is perpetually political and sad.

Much of the group’s music is positively joyous, some is sung in English, and they mix jazz, rock, rumba, bolero, tango, bossa nova, and cumbia sounds. And Hernandez? She loves to sing about love and loss and everyday struggles in her

Cali-country pop balladeer

Brett Young has a classic country voice with just the right amount of twang, which is weird because the former baseball pitcher hails from Costa Mesa where he led his Calvary Chapel High School baseball team to a CIF championship before turning down predraft selection from Tampa Bay and the Twins to pitch in college at Fresno State.

An elbow injury and a background singing at high school Christian worship meetings sent him toward a singing career, and after success with his 2016 self-titled debut EP, he’s never looked back. He’s charted with three singles, most recently 2018’s “Mercy.”

Vina Robles Amphitheatre opens its season with Brett Young on Friday, April 27 (8 p.m.; all ages; $32.50 to $42.50 at vinaroblesamphitheatre.com), bringing his “Caliville” style—a mix of Nashville and California. The Scotty Mac Band opens.

inspirations, check out Sam Riggs when he plays a Numbskull and Good Medicine Presents show on Saturday, April 28, at BarrelHouse Brewing (6 p.m.; all ages; $16 presale at ticketfly.com and Boo Boo’s or $20 at the door).

He hailed from a broken home and had a rough childhood, tried and failed in places like Nashville, but Riggs knew he had something, and he never quit.

“Life is full of mountains,” Riggs said in press materials. “I have to have something to climb. As soon as I climb one mountain peak, I’m looking for the next one, and that’s sort of what music has been for me all along.”

Today he has 2.2 million streams on Spotify and more than 600,000 views on YouTube, plus singles reaching the Texas charts. Keep climbing, cowboy.

True grit

Cody Jinks has a deep baritone voice and a head full of gritty country songs, and he plays the Fremont Theater on Wednesday, May 2 (8 p.m.; all ages; $37 to $77 at eventbrite.com and Boo Boo’s), with Sunny Sweeney and Ward Davis opening.

According to his bio, Jinks spent a decade playing empty barrooms and making no money: “Yeah, I’ve been pretty good at losing money. Not the greatest feeling in the world to be gone from home for long stretches of time, only to walk in the door broke. But I never gave up. Never even had that thought.”

Now he’s a Saving Country Music’s

Album of the Year award winner and his critically acclaimed album I’m Not the Devil broke the Top 5 On Billboard Country and Independent Album Charts.

You don’t make it in the music biz by giving up!

More music …

STRAIGHT OUTTA NORTH COUNTY Opera singer Gabriel Manro, who grew up in Templeton and Atascadero, will return to the Central Coast to play Curly in Opera San Luis Obispo’s upcoming production of Oklahoma!

The great return That idea was promptly cut.

“I was trying to be funny,” Manro explained.

“I don’t know if I really wanted to be Curly.

I didn’t know much about the show when I auditioned. I just wanted to be the lead.”

But this May 12 and 13, Manro will make os Angeles Opera chorus member Gabriel his redemptive return to the Central Coast Manro still remembers the first musical theater scene as Curly in Opera San Luis he ever auditioned for. In the early 1990s, Obispo’s production of Oklahoma!, a musical by he tried out for the role of the male lead, Curly, Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II.

when they moved to Atascadero, Manro rode in the Colony Days Parade and won the distinction of “Best Little Cowboy.” He also remembers celebrating that first year in Atascadero when the town finally had more people than cows.

“The Central Coast is kind of the Oklahoma of California,” Manro said. “It’s a different place. San Luis Obispo is like the idealized California.”

After his stinging rejection in high school, Manro continued playing violin in the youth symphony through the San Luis Obispo Symphony and singing in the choir at school.

After graduation, Manro studied opera at Cal State Northridge, and from there, he was hired as a member of the Los Angeles Opera chorus, where he’s worked ever since.

Aside from a return to his home and the role he always wanted, this production marks a creative collaboration between Manro and his girlfriend, Justine Prado, who’s serving as the assistant director and stage manager for this show.

“It’s very momentous,” Manro said. “It’s almost the perfect casting. I grew up as a kind of little cowboy.”

Through the lens of Oklahoma!, Manro wants audiences to walk away with a sense of appreciation for the lives they lead here on the Central Coast.

“I hope they take away a sense of appreciation that life is great,” Manro said.

“From someone coming in from the outside, SLO is like a fantasy world. And that life was so celebrated at the time this musical was written.” Δ Arts Editor Ryah Cooley isn’t terribly musical.

A personal touch Stories behind the objects in Patti Robbins’ still-life paintings

IMAGE COURTESY OF PATTI ROBBINS

A

rtist Patti Robbins is something of a hoarder, but a hoarder with a purpose for each and every coveted trinket or thingamabob.

The Arroyo Grande-based still-life oil painter never knows what will cause inspiration to strike on a given day, so a table in her home studio is filled with glassware and odds and ends like extra wine corks. A suitcase is filled to the brim with cheerful, brightly colored fabrics marked with stripes, paisley, flowers, and more to serve as the perfect backdrop.

“I find that this is very personal because these objects are mine, that’s my plate,” Robbins said. “Nobody could copy it.”

Still, all of Robbins’ art income doesn’t get shuffled back into paying for her subject matter. Many pieces, like her favorite silver serving dish SERIES REGULAR The curved, silver with the swirly ends or a bright red serving bowl in Red, White, and Yellow in pitcher, star in multiple paintings.

Her pieces are always marked it a forever home.

“To me, it’s the treasure hunt,” Robbins by bold colors: deep shades of red, dark purples, or loud yellows. said of staging a scene to paint. “It’s like “I love color and I’m not afraid of it,” she setting up a dollhouse or a stage. It’s like said. clothes when you put it with a different While Robbins has created art since outfit.” she was a small child—“scribbling on the Robbins lives in South County walls of her mom’s house”—it wasn’t until on several acres filled with citrus, after she’d finished a career as a second sunflowers, and trees. Therefore, the grade teacher and nearly raised all of her PHOTO COURTESY OF PATTI ROBBINS children that she decided it was finally time to make art her main focus. Until then, she had spent her time creating art and attending workshops, but she had no interest in displaying or selling her work.

“Someone pestered me to buy one of my paintings and I gave in,” Robbins said. “When I turned 50, I gave myself permission. Once I went for it, I decided to take it seriously.”

After Robbins preps her canvas, she sketches her shapes, and things begin to take form from there. Where it stops, no one knows.

“You get into it and it has a life of its own,” Robbins said. “One more stroke of paint and I think I’ll ruin it, that’s when you know to step away.” ∆ Arts Editor Ryah Cooley is very attached to teacups and mugs at rcooley@ newtimesslo.com.

Glen The Godfather II this ain’t. Instead, it predictably suffers from sequel disease: more of the same turned up to 11, but devoid of the surprise of the first film.

When the film opens, the boys have lost their jobs with the local police department after having earlier lost their jobs as highway patrolmen. They’re working at a construction site under foreman Farva, an insufferable tool who makes a lot of caulk (read: cock) jokes. They’re told by the governor that they can earn their patrol jobs back if they can successfully transition a Canadian town into an American one. The Canadians aren’t too receptive, and things heat up after the team begins discovering caches of drugs, cellphones, and guns, which after the land trade-off between Canada and the U.S. will already be on U.S. soil—a nifty smuggling trick. What follows is a lot of shenanigans between the troopers and their Mountie counterparts, as well as a search to discover the smugglers. Overall, it’s pretty funny, though not quite as funny as the first and certainly not as original. Stay through the credits. The best bit happens at the very end.

Anna I was super excited along with a little wary when I heard this movie was being made and that the filmmakers crowd-sourced the funds to do it. I’ve seen the first film a dozen or so times at least, and I still laugh-cry every time.

The Broken Lizard website describes them as a “five-man comedy, filmmaking group, devoted to intense sunshine, Floridian deep tissue massage, and the advanced study of keeping it realism.” None of their other films that I’ve seen have quite hit the mark for me as much as the original Super Troopers, and while I’m not surprised, I’m a little disappointed that the sequel doesn’t match it. It’s the same dog doing all the same tricks, and this time around it felt a little old and tired.

As I said, I will always laugh at these dudes and their ridiculousness, but I could have done it happily from my couch at home once it got released. ∆ IDIOTS Vermont Troopers—(left to right) Rodney Farva (Kevin Heffernan), Arcot ‘Thorny’ Ramathorn (Jay Chandrasekhar), Robert ‘Rabbit’ Roto (Erik Stolhanske), Carl Foster (Paul Soter), MacIntyre ‘Mac’ Womack (Steve Lemme)—open an office in a disputed border town between Canada and the U.S.

Co-writer/director Ryan Coogler (Creed) helms this story about T’Challa (Chadwick Boseman), a newly crowned king of the technologically advanced but isolationist country of Wakanda, who finds his new kinghood challenged by Erik Killmonger (Michael B. Jordan), a vengeful victim of T’Challa’s father’s past actions.

Every comic book hero needs a villain, and the obvious one here is white South African arms dealer Ulysses Klaue (Andy Serkis), who’s working with Killmonger to steal vibranium, an alien metal that arrived as a meteorite and is responsible for the Wakandan technology. But that’s only looking at the surface. Dig deeper into this Afrocentric and female-centric film and the real villain is colonialism and the African diaspora is caused that fuels competing ideologies within the larger black community.

It’s an empowering reimagining of African roots but also—remember—a fantasy. Ultimately, this is a super hero flick that refuses to stay in the genre’s rut and that’s interested in exploring complicated political and cultural ideas.

Sure, other Marvel stories have looked at politics, from Iron Man and the arms trade to Captain America: Winter’s Soldier and drones, PTSD, and warfare, but Black Panther goes deeper than any other Marvel storyline. I say, keep it coming. (134 min.)

FINAL PORTRAIT What’s it rated? R What’s it worth? Matinee Where’s it showing? The Palm Geoffrey Rush takes center stage in this 90-minute dive into the quirky relationship between American writer James Lord (Armie Hammer) and renowned artist Alberto Giacometti (Rush). Taking place largely in a drab, weathered Parisian art studio/apartment

Pick

in 1964, Final Portrait is based on the book

by Lord, A Giacometti Portrait, about his final encounter with the master before his death.

The screenplay was adapted and written by director, Stanley Tucci, who is better known for his work in front of the camera (The Hunger Games, Spotlight, Captain America) rather than behind it.

Tucci takes no time in immersing audiences in 1960s Paris, immediately introducing them to Lord’s character, who quickly takes over as the omniscient narrator.

Lord explains that he is a writer working abroad and, through his travels and interest in art, how he has developed a friendship with the famous Giacometti. The artist has asked him to pose for a portrait before he returns to America and with assurances that the process will only take “a few days.”

The story spirals into its own little brand of chaos from there, with both artist and model battling depression, doubt, and the threat of failure. Tony Shalhoub plays Rush’s on screen brother, Diego Giacometti, and delivers dynamic range for a character that in the hands of many would have been nothing more than an afterthought. His performance, along with Rush’s standout portrayal of the famed artist, keep the film rolling, which otherwise would have most likely derailed after the second act.

While pacing is at times a problem in Final Portrait, Tucci’s ability to scuttle his characters in and out of 1960s Paris is commendable. One scene in particular has Giacometti dragging Lord into a small cafe following a particularly MOVIES continued page 31

Pick

best—bringing laughs through selfdeprecating humor and physical comedy.

While I Feel Pretty has a surprisingly dismal metascore on both IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes, I for one was laughing from beginning to end, and my fellow audience members seemed to feel the same.

Renee (Schumer) is a sad sack of a woman whose utter lack of self confidence keeps her from going after the things she really wants … that is until a Soulcycle class gone wrong, resulting in a head injury that brings brimming self-confidence. When Renee looks in the mirror, she sees utter perfection looking back. Her new lease on life leads to a new dream job, a romantic prospect, and an “in” with her boss, a mouse voiced Avery LeClaire (Michelle Williams) who uses Renee’s “every woman” appeal to launch a line of cosmetics to run in stores like Target and Kohl’s, not their usual high-end markets.

Of course not everything in Renee’s life is smooth sailing because of her new confidence. Her tried-and-true gal pals (Aidy Bryant and Busy Phillips) soon grow sick of her strive for stature and exclusivity, and Renee soon learns that even “pretty people” have problems.

While it’s a bit ridiculous to say that Schumer is anything short of pretty—she is, in fact, a working Hollywood actress— she does fall outside of the typical starlet aesthetic and is a vocal advocate for inclusion and acceptance. She also isn’t afraid to put it all out there for the sake of comedy, and she brings some seriously funny stuff to her character.

Soon after meeting Ethan (Rory Scovel), they venture into a bar with a bikini contest going on, and Renee jumps right in. She ties up her shirt, rolls up her shorts, and hops onstage with the group of toned and tiny contestants. It’s hilarious, and Ethan is soon smitten with this bold and brazen chick.

The message being sold is that confidence is sexy, and I for one agree.

While she still may not be perfect, confident Renee makes things happen, takes risks, and owns herself. Once she learns to love herself, head injury side effects or not, she can spend her time living a truly fulfilling life and give up on trying to attain perfection. (110 min.)

But I did anyway because like many slowly aging people of my generation, I find myself more and more drawn to re-watching things I have seen a billion times rather than taking on the exhausting burden of watching something brand new. The fuddy-duddy in me likes familiarity, thank you very much. But beyond that,

Scarface is just a masterpiece.

Scarface, directed by Brian DePalma and written by Oliver Stone, features some of the most classic moments in cinematic history. Be it Al Pacino’s epic showdown with a competing drug cartel at the end, the infamously terrifying chainsaw scene, or the still jawdropping moment when the audience first gazes upon Michelle Pfeiffer slowly descending like an angel from heaven in the glass elevator wearing that dress. (I still have nightmares about all the times I tried to give myself her perfect bob haircut.)

In examining classic films that made such a cultural impact, it’s important to look at how well they’ve aged.

Does Scarface hold up in 2018, in an environment where representation matters so very much? It depends on how you look at it. It’s hard to look

STARTS FRIDAY!

BLAST FROM THE past so many Caucasian actors playing people of color. (You mean to tell me in 1983 you couldn’t find more than a handful of Cuban or Hispanic/Latino actors?) Frankly, Robert Loggia (who was a brilliant and wonderful actor I greatly admired) laying on a thick accent comes across as corny. The effect is somewhat comical, honestly. But at the time, this wasn’t recognized as the act of whitewashing we now see it as.

Actors considered it a great challenge to transform themselves into characters of different races or ethnicities, and Hollywood didn’t leave much room for diversity behind and in front of the camera.

With that aside, the movie holds up astoundingly well. Pacino is nothing short of magnetic. In that all-too-real chainsaw scene, De Palma’s choice to let the camera hang on Tony Montana’s face is pure perfection. We are never told, but we know Tony has seen similar acts of violence, so much so that his soul is nothing more than a black pit he desperately seeks to fill with money and power. Even when he has all these things, Pacino sells the emptiness of Tony so well, the trappings of his success become almost garish and hard to look at. Except that sunken hot tub in the middle of his bedroom. (Seriously, people did this back then? Didn’t water just get all over your bedroom carpet?

Did no one worry about mold in the carpet? Am I the only who thinks about these things when I watch movies?)

ISLE OF DOGS

What’s it rated? PG What’s it worth? Full Price Where’s it showing? The Palm, Stadium 10 Wes Anderson (Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, Fantastic Mr. Fox, Moonrise Kingdom) directs this stop-motion animated tale about Atari Kobayashi (Koyu Rankin), a young boy living in near-future dystopian Japan, who goes in search of his dog, Spots (Live Schreiber), which has been banished—as have all dogs— to Trash Island because of a dog flu outbreak.

Along the way, Atari receives help from other banished dogs, including Rex (Edward Norton), King (Bob Balaban), Duke (Jeff Goldblum), Boss (Bill Murray), and Chief (Bryan Cranston).

Meanwhile back in Megasaki City, dogbanisher and Mayor Kobayashi (Kunichi Nomura)—Atari’s guardian—works to thwart Professor Watanabe (Akira Ito), who’s developing a cure for the dog flu, so the Mayor can carry out his evil plan to exterminate all dogs.

I find stop-motion animation incredibly charming. By today’s standards of computergenerated animation, it’s decidedly quaint, but it reminds me of my childhood love for Ray Harryhausen’s work in films like Jason and the Argonauts and Clash of the Titans. Recent films like the Claymation Wallace and Gromit films A Grand Day Out and The Wrong Trousers or Tim Burton films like The Nightmare Before Christmas and Corpse Bride—and let’s not forget Charlie Kaufman’s Anomalisa—are simply amazing.

There’s something whimsical and wonderful about the technique, and for an inherent quirky director like Wes Anderson, stop-motion allows him to fully divest from reality.

Talking dogs feels completely natural in Isle of Dogs, which explores the unique relationships between humans and dogs from the dogs’ perspective. Chief, for instance, is a stray, and his pack members subtly and silently judge him for it. Nutmeg is a former show dog used to regular grooming and being fawned over, but like all the other dogs banished to Trash Island, she lost her elevated position and deals with it with a level of class that’s hard not to admire.

This sort of anthropomorphization is human nature—we love to imagine our pets have an inner dialogue and love us the same way we love them. Anderson has a lot of fun exploring how dogs think of humans and each other.

Ultimately, this is a film about relationships, loyalty, honor, and ethics, which are pretty heavy topics, but first and foremost, this is a wonderful looking film. I absolutely loved it!

It helps that there’s a great cast doing great voice work with some fun surprises. Courtney B. Vance’s smooth voice as The Narrator provides necessary context, John Lennon’s former wife Yoko Ono makes a vocal appearance as Assistant-Scientist Yoko Ono, and long-time Anderson collaborator Anjelica Huston is credited as voicing a character named Mute Poodle, meaning she has no lines. Greta Gerwig is terrific as earnest and idealistic exchange student Tracy Walker.

While the dogs all speak English, all the Japanese characters speak in Japanese, so we have Frances McDormand starring as Interpreter Nelson. You’ll also hear the familiar voices of Harvey Keitel and F. Murray Abraham. Tilda Swinton is great as Oracle, a Pug who watches TV and repeats what she sees, leading the dogs around her to think she’s a prognosticating mystic.

Even though the story centers on Atari and his search for Spots, this is really Chief’s story. He’s the character with the biggest arc, the one who has to learn about the sacred relationship between man and dog, who also has to learn he’s good enough to deserve a mate like Nutmeg. The dogs are actually a lot more complex than most of the human characters, and it’s Chief we’re rooting for more than Atari.

The models, sets, and animation are so compelling that I felt fully immersed in the world Anderson and his team of filmmakers created.

I know Anderson’s sensibilities don’t appeal to everyone. He’s droll humor doesn’t resonate for some, but if you’ve liked his previous films, you’ll find Isle of Dogs a worthy entry into Anderson’s oeuvre. (101 min.)

challenges all users to play “Anorak’s Quest” and find his hidden “keys” that will reveal his Easter Egg, with the winner getting control over OASIS. Set in a dystopian 2044, life sucks for most people, so they spend their time in OASIS where they can live out their fantasies. Those playing the game and searching for the egg are called Gunters (egg hunters), but Nolan Sorrento (Ben Mendelsohn), the power-mad CEO of Innovative Online Industries (IOI) that manufactures the equipment to access the virtual world, also wants control of the OASIS, so he’s enlisted a cadre of indentured players called Sixers (due to their six-digit identifications), to win the quest and hand over control to IOI. Our hero is Wade Watts (Tye Sheridan), a teenage Gunter. Can he figure out the game and win control? Seeing as this is a Spielberg film, you already know the answer, but that doesn’t stop the ride from being a lot of fun.

Teamwork and friendship is also important theme in this film. Wade and Helen have never met in real life, but they’re best friends in OASIS. They have to learn to work with and trust Samantha and her avatar, and Sho (Philip Zhao) and Daito (Win Morisaki) eventually join them to form a team of five. To raise the stakes, we learn that Samantha’s father died as an indentured player for Sorrento and IOI, so yes, there are real-world ramifications to the “game,” and it’s pure Spielberg for a bunch of kids to take on corrupt grownup powers and win. Go geeks! (140 min.)

It’s a pretty good start to the camping season.

Late on Saturday afternoon, my buddy and I headed east on Highway 58, then south down Soda Lake Road because it was time. Every spring for the last few years, I’ve made the trek over to Carrizo in search of wildflowers. This year’s April showers may have come too late to yield a rainbow of flowers. The valley looks completely different than it has in the past. There’s nary a super bloom anywhere you look. And the humans, thank goodness, are almost as rare a sighting.

Within the first half a mile of Soda Lake Road, pronghorn antelope mill around a water trough. As soon as pavement becomes dirt, three tule elk bolt from the side of the road toward their herd in the center of the valley.

We plop our camp chairs around the readymade, stone-lined fire pit and hike up the hill behind us for a better view of the valley floor as the sun sets.

For the last two years, the blooms have painted the valley in yellows, purples, and oranges. This year, it’s just green—but at least it’s green. On Sunday morning, we hop into my friend’s truck and venture farther into the range. We finally find flowers, yellow tidy tips and goldfields, a smattering of poppies, the odd lonely lupine, a better camping spot, and a giant rattlesnake.

Glad that wasn’t part of yesterday afternoon’s wildlife safari! We head back down Highway 166, toward New Cuyama, stop in to the Buckhorn Saloon for some beverages and a plate of nachos (they make their own nacho cheese sauce, and

The juicy truth about olallie Cambria rolls out the purple carpet Saturday, May 5

L

ife is juicy, love is juicy. So is Cambria’s most beloved fruit.

Olallieberries are locally famous for a reason: They taste like a brambly raspberry and a soft, ripe blackberry made a love child after a passionate tryst under a full moon.

In truth, the olallieberry (pronounced oh-la-leh and sometimes spelled ollalieberry, olallaberry, ollalaberry or ollaliberry) is actually a mix between a Youngberry and a Loganberry. What are those, you ask? We could be here all day.

Look it up!

We do know this: The berry was first developed in 1949 at Oregon State University by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The name “olallie” has Native American origin, meaning, simply, “berry.”

Of course, olallieberries are no simple crop on the Central Coast, and they’re “a very big deal” in Cambria, where the climate is ideal for growing them. Even my own family, who moved from the LA area to Atascadero in 1997, knew that the olallieberry was to be revered, a delicacy only to be consumed on the most important occasions.

Maybe we just wanted to fit in, or maybe we just fell in love with the seedy, dark flesh like everyone else, but every Thanksgiving and Christmas my mother would ceremoniously bellow, “It’s ohhhhhh-la-leeeee time!”

Needless to say, stained shirts, chins, teeth, lips, and tongues were a source of pride for my sister and me.

If you’ve lived around here awhile, you probably have a similar story.

Now, there’s finally a festival that celebrates the Central Coast celebrity berry in plush style. This May 5, locals and tourists will flock to Cambria to taste pies, crumbles, jams, and jellies shimmering with dark purple gloss.

Now in its second year, the Cambria Olallieberry Festival has ripened to include a kids dessert contest and live music.

In honor of all this hoopla, it seems appropriate to honor the first seeds planted, don’t you think?

Let’s turn to John and Renee Linn, owners of Linn’s Restaurant in Cambria.

Their story should probably be a movie.

The whole Linn’s operation actually started as a farmstand off Santa Rosa Creek Road. Well, it started a bit before that, with one incredibly juicy dream.

The couple, married in 1971, had always appreciated the farm life, and spent many a long drive admiring

The Olallieberry Festival arrives May 5 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Cambria Historical Society. Expect olallieberry dishes, a kids corner, kids dessert contest, wine, beer, local food vendors, jewelry and craft booths, and live music by Jill Knight.

Midwestern fields.

So, as their website proudly reads: “One day, they bundled up newborn son Justin, packed their books and student loans into a ’64 VW bug, and headed for Denver.

They were determined to make enough money to buy into their version of the American dream.”

What the couple found were slim job prospects and a crummy national economy.

So, John borrowed $750 to put a down payment on a service station where he sold gas at the height of the oil crisis and specialized in foreign car repair.

Slowly, the couple worked toward their five-year goal of buying a farm.

Well, they turned that dream into reality with a lot of hard work and gumption. The Linns fi nally purchased their now iconic Santa Rosa Creek Road farm in the late ’70s after visiting the area for a friend’s wedding. This was a risky move: They barely had enough for a down payment, let alone a mortgage.

Plus, the family had grown to include son Aaron, and Renee was now pregnant with their third child, Aimee. Still, they pushed on. In fact, all five Linns lived in small trailer on the farm while working to refurbish the old well and get the land in working order.

Together, they learned how to run trenchers and drive tractors. They planted fruit trees and mended fences and hoped for good weather.

Still, they needed a cash crop.

By 1979, the couple saw the writing on the wall. If they didn’t get creative, they might lose their dream altogether.

A U-Pick stand idea formed, and— amazingly—it was a roaring success.

Visitors especially loved the strangely named olallieberry that John had planted on a whim.

What came next? Why, Renee’s now famous preserves, jellies, jams, and pies, of course. Linn’s restaurant opened in downtown Cambria in the summer of 1989, and now you can fi nd those famous pies across Central Coast and Central Valley supermarkets, as well as at Cambria’s own open air farmers market.

Gayle Jenkins, who you could call “the olallieberry’s official publicist,” has her own olallie love story to tell.

the first-ever Olallieberry Festival started last year.

“My family has been coming up here to Cambria for the past four decades or so, and I remember going to the Linn’s farm and buying jams and jellies and whatever we could get our hands on that had olalliberries in it,” she said.

Jenkins and her husband, Mark, purchased a home in Cambria in 2009 and became full-time residents in 2013, when they became the proprietors of the gourmet foods shop A Matter of Taste, just up the street from Linn’s.

“I noticed that other communities were doing strawberry festivals, squash and pumpkin festivals. Everyone who comes to Cambria—it doesn’t matter where they’re from—they always ask about the olallieberry,” Jenkins said, adding that she’s become accustomed to sending folks over to Linn’s for a fat, juicy slice of pie.

Sure, last year’s debut festival was cold and windy, but the locals rallied. Bundled in beanies, a healthy crowd sampled pies and crumbles. Jenkins hopes to grow the fest into a weekend event, but for now— like the berry’s origin story—it’s a small snack destined to grow wild.

“Forty years ago, John Linn made the decision to plant olallieberries, with no conception of anything but to simply plant some berries,” Jenkins said. “Sure, you might see olallieberry up north, but Linn’s really put it on the map in Cambria. Who would have ever thought, 40 years later, the ollallieberry would be as big as it is?” ∆ Hayley Thomas Cain is excited for olallieberry season and her birthday season, which begins each year in May. She can be reached at hthomas@newtimesslo.com.

Sounds a little sketchy, but I promise there’s nothing too scary in this cave.

Well, unless you find the idea of fruited IPAs absolutely terrifying (which some stuffy beer purists do). Figueroa Mountain Brewing Co. says phooey to all that. Beer is good. Fruit is good. Why shouldn’t the two throw on a couple of extra-teeny swimsuits and do a little tango? Inspired by the historic Chumash caves of Santa Barbara at Painted Cave State Historic Park, Fig’s Painted Cave IPA carries hints of citrus and pine (your hops) balanced with tangy guava puree (your fruit). Truly, this marks the return of one of the family-owned brewery’s most popular beers to date. That’s right.

It’s time to let loose and live a little.

Let down your beard and get tropical.

Embrace the fruit!

Figueroa Mountain Painted Cave IPA is now available at the Arroyo Grande, Buellton, Los Olivos, and Westlake Village taprooms plus at select retailers. Find out more at figmtnbrew.com. ∆ Hayley Thomas Cain embraces the fruit daily. She can be reached at hthomas@ newtimesslo.com.

H ayley’s Bites Chill out!

Go with the flow: Grab a mimosa or bloody mary and chill out on the coast while guitarists serenade you with sweet tunes. Sounds like a nice way to end the week, right? Acoustic Sundays are live at SeaVenture Beach Hotel in Pismo Beach (seaventurerestaurant.com), which means you should be lathering on the SPF and breaking out those strappy sandals …

Stop and smell the vines: Catch the sounds of Bear Market Riot on April 27 at Robert Hall Winery in Paso Robles. Sip on wines by the glass, kick off your shoes, and lounge in the grass while the sun sets (for more information, go to roberthallwinery.com) …

Doce Robles Winery and Vineyard in Paso Robles will host a Rising Moon Sunset Hayride event this April 28 featuring live music, local Railroad Barbecue, vineyard hayrides, and Dulce Robles wines. Bring a blanket and the kids—this is prime #picnicgoals, people (tickets at eventbrite.com).

Spring, SprAng, Sprung!

It won’t stay green for long: Now is the time to take that farm tour you’ve been putting off (we all know those hills will turn gold soon enough). The weather is perfect for a stroll through fragrant fields at Harmony Lavender in Atascadero (book at harmonylavender.com). Perhaps you’re looking for a cheesier experience, and in that case, Stepladder Creamery in Cambria has the goat’s milk on lock (stepladdercreamery.com) … Budbreak has occurred in Paso Robles and Parrish Family Vineyards! What’s that mean?

Well, the vines have pushed open their leaves and awakened out of winter dormancy. In spring, daylight and temperatures increase, which encourages the vines to pull up stored water and macronutrients from the roots to the limbs. This means fruit is well on its way! You can learn more about this fascinating and magical time at parrishvineyards.com (and find a host of spring-a-licious wine adventures at pasowine.com) … Hospice du Rhone in Paso Robles uncorks April 26 through 28, celebrating the best local Rhone wine producers (hospicedurhone.org for tickets).

Wild fun Cheers to the tiger: Brew at the Zoo kicks off this April 28 at the Charles Paddock Zoo in A-Town, and it promises to have teeth. You can expect a sampling of craft breweries, wine, and cider (plus, monkeys, birds, reptiles, and all the other critters housed at the facility).

Attendees will receive a collectible beer glass for tastings—plus there’s live music and entertainment in store. No need to eat beforehand: Nosh on barbecue, tamales, sliders, and garlic fries (visitatascadero.com) … Bristols Cider House is hoppin’ this spring. Check the calendar for music and events coming up, including The Stellar Duo, playing April 28. Slurp down a range of crisp, English inspired hard ciders and don’t forget to attend the Central Coast Cider Festival, slated for May 12 at the Atascadero Lake Park. ∆ Hayley Thomas Cain’s favorite wild animal is the great North American weiner dog. She can be reached at hthomas@newtimesslo.com.

ORDINANCE NO. 3365

PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE

AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE COASTAL ZONE LAND USE ORDINANCE, TITLE 23 OF THE SAN LUIS OBISPO COUNTY CODE AS APPLICABLE TO THE CAMBRIA TRANSFER OF DEVELOPMENT CREDITS (TDC) PROGRAM The Board of Supervisors of the County of San Luis Obispo ordains as follows: as follows:

SECTION 1: Section 23.04.440 of the Coastal Zone Land Use Ordinance, Title 23 of the San Luis Obispo County Code, is hereby amended 23.04.440 Transfer of Development Credits - Cambria.

The purpose of this section is to implement portions of the Cambria Transfer of Development Credits (TDC’s) Program by providing a procedure to allow simple transfers within the community of Cambria. Consistent with applicable planning area programs and standards of the Land Use Element, the objective of this section is to reduce potential development in environmentally sensitive within the Urban Reserve Line of Cambria (URL), and help implement a buildout reduction program within the boundaries of the Cambria Community Services District. Through the use of TDC’s, potential development for lots within sensitive areas may be transferred, in terms of allowable building area (expressed in square footage), to more suitable sites within the URL. A lot from which development credits have been transferred is “retired”, and loses its building potential through recordation of permanent conservation easement or other document. A TDC “receiver” site would then be allowed to be developed with a larger dwelling than would otherwise be allowed by planning area standards. a.

Where allowed. Receiver sites shall be located within the Residential Single Family land use category and on parcels in a small-lot residential subdivision only. Small-lot residential subdivisions, as identified in North Coast Area Plan (Part II of the Land Use Element) for the Cambria Urban Area include East Lodge Hill, West Lodge Hill, Park Hill, Happy Hill, and Pine Knolls. Lots being retired for purposes of a transfer shall be in a location consistent with Combining Designations Program number 17 (Chapter 6, Section D of the North Coast Area Plan). Lots within Special Project Area #2 (Visible Hillside) may qualify as a receiver site (for additional GSA or footprint) provided retiring lots are within the same special project area, as shown on the following exhibits. Lots within Special Project Area #1 – Fern Canyon are not allowed to use TDCs as a receiver site.

b.

Permit requirement. Minor Use Permit for the proposed dwelling and site receiving the additional allowed square footage. No permit requirement for the lot to be retired into open space.

c.

Required findings. The Planning Director or applicable appeal body shall not approve a Minor Use Permit for a residence to be constructed with additional square footage gained through TDC until the following findings have been made:

d.

(1)

Adequate instruments have been executed to assure that lot(s) to be retired will remain in permanent open space and that no development will occur; and

(2)

The “receiver” site can accommodate the proposed scale and intensity of development without the need for a variance (23.01.045), exception to height limitations (23.04.124b) or modification to parking standards (23.04.162h); and

(3)

The circumstances of the transfer are consistent with the purpose and intent of the applicable planning area programs and standards regarding transfer of development credits.

Eligible purchasers of TDC’s.

(1)

(2)

e.

f.

Owners of small residential single-family lots within the Cambria Urban Reserve Line. Through the transfer of development credits (TDC’s), owners of property with sewer or water service by the Cambria Community Services District (CCSD) that are located on West Lodge Hill, East Lodge Hill, Park Hill, Happy Hill or Pine Knolls may be allowed an increase in the allowable footprint and gross structural area on their property.

Other properties. Owners of properties that have been required by planning area standards, conditions of development approval, or other provisions of the Local Coastal Program to offset impacts of development through purchase of TDC’s may also participate.

Application contents. In addition to meeting the application contents of section 22.02.033 (Minor Use Permit), an applicant proposing a TDC shall submit evidence that a preliminary agreement has been reached between the property owners and a non-profit corporation organized for conservation purposes approved by the Planning Director, and including the following: (1)

The location of the lot(s) to be retired;

(2)

The size and approximate slope of both lots to be retired and lot(s) to receive additional square footage;

(3)

The method of permanent disposition of fee title of the lot(s) to be retired;

(4)

The type of conservation easement, deed restriction or other instrument utilized to guarantee the permanent open space of the lot(s) to be retired.

Participation of a non-profit corporation required. A TDC shall not be approved unless a non-profit corporation or public agency, organized for conservation purposes and approved by the Planning Director, participates in the TDC process. The role of the non-profit corporation may include public information and TDC program development, a source of available square footage for purchase, recordation of easements, deed restrictions or other documents, and may be responsible for final disposition of lots to be retired.

SECTION 2.

This project is covered by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. It can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that this project may have a significant effect on the environment; therefore, the activity is not subject to CEQA. [Reference: State CEQA Guidelines sec. 15061(b)(3), General Rule Exemption] SECTION 3.

If any section, subsection, clause, phrase or portion of this ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the decision of a court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity or constitutionality of the remaining portion of this ordinance. The Board of Supervisors hereby declares that it would have passed this ordinance and each section, subsection, clause, phrase or portion thereof irrespective of the fact that any one or more sections, subsections, sentences, clauses, phrases or portions be declared invalid or unconstitutional.

SECTION 4:

The Local Coastal Program is intended to be carried out in a manner fully in conformity with the Coastal Act.

SECTION 5: This amendment shall become operative automatically, pursuant to 14 California Code of Regulations Section 13551(b)(1), upon the certification without any modifications to said amendments by the California Coastal Commission and upon acknowledgement by the San Luis Obispo County Board of Supervisors of receipt of the Commission’s resolution of certification pursuant to 14 California Code of Regulations Section 13544. In the event that the California Coastal Commission recommends modifications to said amendments, the amendments with modification shall be processed in accordance with Government Code Section 65350 et seq., before final local government adoption of the amendments with modifications suggested by the Coastal Commission pursuant to 14 California Code of Regulations Section 13551(b)(2), or before the Board of Supervisors resubmits, pursuant to Public Resources Code Sections 30512 and 30513, any additional amendments to satisfy the Commission’s recommended changes.

SECTION 6: This ordinance shall take effect upon certification by the California Coastal Commission in accordance with Section 5 above. Before the expiration of 15 days after the adoption of this ordinance by the San Luis Obispo County Board of Supervisors, it shall be published once in a newspaper of general circulation published in the County of San Luis Obispo, State of California, together with the names of the members of the Board of Supervisors voting for and against the ordinance.

SECTION 7: ordinance in full is waived.

In accordance with Government Code Section 25131, after reading of the title of the ordinance, further reading of the

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

LegaL Notices 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 (714) 848-9272 or visit this Internet Web site www.elitepostandpub. com, using the file number assigned to this case 16-44429.

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.

Rob Brezsny’s Free Will Astrology Homework: Choose two ancestors with whom you’d like to have closer relationships. Contact their spirits in your dreams. Testify at freewillastrology.com.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Imagine you’re one of four porcupines caught in frigid weather. To keep warm, you all have the urge to huddle together and pool your body heat. But whenever you try to get close, you prick each other with your quills.

The only solution to that problem is to move away from each other, even though it means you can’t quell your chill as well.

This scenario was used by psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud as a parable for the human dilemma. We want to be intimate with each other, Freud said, but we hurt each other when we try. The oft-chosen solution is to be partially intimate: not as close as we would like to be, but only as much as we can bear. Now everything I just said, Aries, is a preface for better news: In the coming weeks, neither your own quills nor those of the people you care about will be as sharp or as long as usual.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): The Simpsons is the longest-running American TV sitcom and animated series. But it had a rough start. In the fall of 1989, when producers staged a private pre-release screening of the first episode, they realized the animation was mediocre. They worked hard to redo it, replacing 70 percent of the original content. After that slow start, the process got easier and the results got better. When the program completes its 30th season in 2019, it will have aired 669 episodes. I don’t know if your own burgeoning project will ultimately have as enduring a presence, Taurus, but I’m pretty sure that, like The Simpsons, it will eventually become better than it is in the early going. Stick with it.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): The coming weeks might be an interesting time to resurrect a frustrated dream you abandoned in a wasteland; or rescue and restore a moldering treasure you stopped taking care of a while back; or revive a faltering commitment you’ve been ignoring for reasons that aren’t very high-minded. Is there a secret joy you’ve been denying yourself without good cause? Renew your relationship with it. Is there a rough prize you received before you were ready to make smart use of it? Maybe you’re finally ready. Are you brave enough to dismantle a bad habit that hampers your self-mastery? I suspect you are.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): The Hollywood film industry relies heavily on recycled ideas. In 2014, for example, only one of the 10 top-grossing movies—Interstellar—was not a sequel, remake, reboot, or episode in a franchise. In the coming weeks and months, Cancerian, you’ll generate maximum health and wisdom for yourself by being more like Interstellar than like The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Transformers: Age of Extinction, X-Men: Days of Future Past, and the six other top 10 rehashes of 2014. Be original!

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Long ago, in the land we now call Italy, humans regarded Mars as the divine protector of fields. He was the fertility god who ripened the food crops. Farmers said prayers to him before planting seeds, asking for his blessings. But as the Roman Empire arose, and warriors began to outnumber farmers, the deity who once served as a kind benefactor evolved into a militant champion, even a fierce and belligerent conqueror.

In accordance with current astrological omens, Leo, I encourage you to evolve in the opposite direction. Now is an excellent time to transmute aggressiveness and combativeness into fecundity and tenderness.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You sometimes get superstitious when life is going well. You worry about growing overconfident.

You’re afraid that if you enjoy yourself too much, you will anger the gods and jinx your good fortune. Is any of that noise clouding your mood these days? I hope not; it shouldn’t be. The truth, as I see it, is that your intuition is extra-strong and your decision-making is especially adroit. More luck than usual is flowing in your vicinity, and you have an enhanced

knack for capitalizing on it. In my estimation, therefore, the coming weeks will be a favorable time to build up your hunger for vivid adventures and bring your fantasies at least one step closer to becoming concrete realities. Whisper the following to yourself as you drop off to sleep each night: “I will allow myself to think bigger and bolder than usual.”

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): The bad news is that 60 percent of Nevada’s Lake Mead has dried up. The good news—at least for historians, tourists, and hikers—is that the Old West town of St. Thomas has re-emerged. It had sunk beneath the water in 1936, when the government built the dam that created the lake. But as the lake has shrunk in recent years, old buildings and roads have reappeared. I foresee a comparable resurfacing in your life, Libra: the return of a lost resource or vanished possibility or departed influence.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): I hope the next seven weeks will be a time of renaissance for your most engaging alliances.

The astrological omens suggest it can be. Would you like to take advantage of this cosmic invitation? If so, try the following strategies. 1. Arrange for you and each of your close companions to relive the time when you first met.

Recall and revitalize the dispensation that originally brought you together. 2. Talk about the influences you’ve had on each other and the ways your relationship has evolved. 3.

Fantasize about the inspirations and help you’d like to offer each other in the future. 4. Brainstorm about the benefits your connection has provided and will provide for the rest of the world.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Now is one of the rare times when you should be alert for the potential downsides of blessings that usually sustain you. Even the best things in life could require adjustments. Even your most enlightened attitudes and mature beliefs may have pockets of ignorance. So don’t be a prisoner of your own success or a slave of good habits.

Your ability to adjust and make corrections will be key to the most interesting kind of progress you can achieve in the coming weeks.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Capricorn author Simone de Beauvoir was a French feminist and activist. In her book A Transatlantic Love Affair, she made a surprising confession: Thanks to the assistance of a new lover, Nelson Algren, she finally had her first orgasm at age 39. Better late than never, right? I suspect that you, too, are currently a good candidate to be transported to a higher octave of pleasure. Even if you’re an old pro at sexual climax, there may be a new level of bliss awaiting you in some other way. Ask for it! Seek it out!

Solicit it!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Can you afford to hire someone to do your busy work for a while? If so, do it. If not, see if you can avoid the busy work for a while. In my astrological opinion, you need to deepen and refine your skills at lounging around and doing nothing. The cosmic omens strongly and loudly and energetically suggest that you should be soft and quiet and placid. It’s time for you to recharge your psychospiritual batteries as you dream up new approaches to making love, making money, and making sweet nonsense. Please say a demure “no, thanks” to the strident demands of the status quo, my dear. Trust the stars in your own eyes.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): I believe it’s a favorable time for you to add a new mentor to your entourage. If you don’t have a mentor, go exploring until you find one. In the next five weeks, you might even consider mustering a host of fresh teachers, guides, trainers, coaches, and initiators. My reading of the astrological omens suggests that you’re primed to learn twice as much and twice as fast about every subject that will be important for you during the next two years. Your future educational needs require your full attention. ∆
