We have organized 6 Task Force groups to help us accomplish our goals for the coming three years. Here’s a quick overview of the work that is in progress... Public Policy Our Public Policy Task Force has met several times to review the Chamber’s policy platform and revise it to allow for more latitude to join statewide and/or regional coalitions in support of business-friendly legislation or in opposition to legislation that will have a negative impact on our business community. We have nearly completed the first draft of the document and plan to put some finishing touches on it before it goes to the Chamber Board for approval this summer. Going forward, the Public Policy Task force will meet quarterly to review legislative proposals that were not included in our original approved guidelines in order to keep them as a living and relevant document. Military Outreach The intent of our Military Outreach plan was to create mentorship and internship programs for transitioning servicemembers. As our first step, we have developed and rolled out a brand new Associate Membership program for transitioning servicemembers. This is a subject of a separate article on the next page. Economic Development The Chamber has been an active voice for business on issues such as land use/zoning and property rights. Most notably, the Chamber has taken a lead in the opposition of the SOAR Initiative and has commissioned an economic impact study that spells out the negative impacts this initiative could have on our city. Read the entire report at www.OceansideSoarStudy.com. The Chamber also partnered with the City’s Economic Development Department in the creation of Oceanside’s 1st Annual Oceanside Cares Business Walk. Dozens of businesses were visited by teams from the City and Chamber, with the intent of better understanding their needs and determining how we can effectively serve our local businesses.
The Oceanside Chamber of Commerce would like to thank the following Chamber Partners for their generous financial contributions to the Chamber’s program of work.

For more information about how your company can participate in the Partner Program, please contact Scott Ashton at 760-722-1534
Workforce Development The Chamber continues to invest in our future workforce by supporting initiatives such as Oceanside Promise and the Unite North County programs. Both of these organizations are focused on aligning the vast array of services in our communities in order to better serve our youth, the future employees of our local businesses. Neighborhood Business Outreach When the City of Oceanside went to council districts last year, the Chamber determined to use this as an opportunity to create outreach programs to serve the businesses in the various districts. This is beginning to take form, as the City will be holding its first district elections this fall (for districts 1 and 2, the two northern districts). The Neighborhood Business Outreach Task force will sponsor a “Meet the Candidates” Mixer in each of the two districts this fall, while the Chamber’s Business and Community Political Action Committee will sponsor candidate forums. Food Service Industry Support Our work in this area has been focused on enhancing communications with the restaurant community on issues impacting their industry. A recent example
included outreach to the restaurants on new regulations regarding disposal of organic waste. We have also begun communications with the California Restaurant Association on legislative issues of relevance to our restaurants. Late last year, the Chamber produced Oceanside’s first annual Best of Oceanside Restaurant Guide, providing community members and visitors the most comprehensive printed guide to local dining opportunities. In addition to these six Strategic priorities, the Chamber continues to provide a wide variety of networking events and business education programs. We have also continued our commitment to promoting our community, with our series of “Best of Oceanside” publications and high quality community events. Whether or not you have time to personally attend Chamber events or meetings, your investment in the organization is critical to our continued movement on the strategic priorities I have outlined above. As always, we are grateful for the ongoing support of our business community.
MILITARY MENTORSHIP PROGRAM L AUNCHES As part of its 3-Year Strategic Plan, the Oceanside Chamber has rolled out its new Military Mentorship Program to serve transitioning servicemembers. The program is designed to provide opportunities for participants to develop and practice their networking skills and take advantage of business training opportunities. The servicemembers are invited to participate in a 6-month associate (non-business) membership at no charge, providing access to a wide variety of networking events and business workshops. Each participant is assigned a Chamber member mentor to help them navigate the events and make new contacts.
Mentor training has been led by Patricia Reily of California State University San Marcos and Sarai Rogers of Pacific Marine Credit Union, who have put together a comprehensive presentation to equip Chamber members desiring to serve as mentors. The Chamber is partnering with California State University San Marcos, Veterans Chamber of Commerce and Veterans Business Outreach Center to provide customized educational and networking opportunities for the participants. This summer’s events include a LinkedIn for Military workshop hosted by CSUSM and an Entrepreneurship workshop taught by the San Diego Veterans Chamber.
Nearly 20 Chamber members have already signed up to serve as mentors and the Chamber has begun outreach to invite servicemembers by holding educational briefings on Base.

A BREAST CANCER SURVIVOR SPEAKS OUT:
SNOWBALL IN A SNOWSTOR M Until after her mammogram five years ago, Sue Glaze had no idea she had dense breasts. Then a cancer diagnosis, two lumpectomies, and five weeks of radiation rocked her world. Today Sue is outspoken about how SonoCiné can help women with dense breasts – and why it’s critical to know if you have them... SonoCiné community champion Sue Glaze told us, “Every year I would have to drive to Pasadena to have my exam. But not anymore. With my history I just have to watch it. I’m not taking any chances and I urge other women to play it safe, too. It could save your life.”
If ever there was a woman who needs to be hypervigilant about her annual breast exams, it’s local resident Sue Glaze. But for Sue – along with one out of every two women reading this story right now – an annual exam has to mean more than a mammogram. Because dense breast tissue, which shows white on a mammogram in the same way that breast cancer does, makes spotting small tumors simlar finding a “snowball in a snowstorm.” The donor-funded SonoCiné, which is available in San Diego County exclusively at Tri-City Medical Center, gives radiologists a way to see through that snowstorm, detecting tumors in dense breasts the size of a lentil.

Dense breasts, tiny tumors After a cancer diagnosis, two lumpectomies, and five weeks of radiation, Sue Glaze is now a survivor. And she’s not wasting any time telling every woman she knows about how important SonoCiné is to detecting tiny tumors in dense breasts – as well as encouraging women to know their breast density. “Three quarters of all women don’t know they have dense breasts. You can’t tell by self-examination. But for women like us, over fifty percent of all tumors will be missed by mammogram alone. So be sure to ask about your breast tissue classification. With SonoCiné at Tri-City, if there’s a breast cancer history in your family, or if you have dense breasts or implants, this is huge. If I can save even one life, telling my story will be worth it.” To schedule your breast screening, or for questions about the new SonoCiné and how it could help you, call Tri-City Medical Center at 760-940-5017. We’re here to help.

PJ GRAPHICS CELEBRATING 30 YEARS AS OCEANSIDE CHAMBER MEMBER P J Graphics is celebrating its 30th year as a member of the Oceanside Chamber, while owners Tom and Helen Hartley have been in business for over 40 years. The Hartley’s bought the business which was originally called Pee Jay Rubber Stamp. They moved in to an empty Hughes Aircraft building on Oceanside Boulevard where they set up shop as P J Graphics. After a dozen or so years they relocated further east at the corner of Oceanside Boulevard and Garrison where they remained for 25 years. Helen and Tom met while in Panama in 1967. They were soon married and Tom was promptly sent to Vietnam where he fought and was wounded in the Tet Offensive. He arrived back to the United States on a stretcher at the Camp Pendleton Naval Hospital. Tom got involved in the Oceanside Chamber in the 1980s, serving on the board and in 1986 he served as President as the Chamber celebrated its 100th anniversary. He served another term in 1987, the same year their daughter Debbie was crowned Miss Oceanside. Their son Lance Hartley has worked alongside his parents at P J Graphics for 25 years.
The Hartley’s recently purchased and moved into their newest location a year ago at 2605 Oceanside Boulevard. They’ve come a long way from selling rubberstamps and have branched out to printing, engraving, wide format print and silk screening. Tom says they’ll “print everything but $100 bills.” Both Tom and Helen are happy to see the changes in Oceanside in recent years, especially in the downtown area. They are optimistic for the future and see their longevity both as a personal success as well as a community one. They are grateful for their loyal customers and welcome Oceanside’s newest businesses and entrepreneurs.
CHAMBER’S BUSINESS & COMMUNITY POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE COMMISSIONS STUDY ON ECONOMIC IMPACT OF SOAR INITIATIVE
Voters in the City of Oceanside will be asked in November 2018 to consider an initiative, commonly known as the SOAR Initiative, which would require public approval for any change in the zoning of land currently designated for agriculture or open space. Because most open space used for parks and recreational activities is City-owned and already requires a vote of the people for any zoning change, the Initiative primarily involves the future of the 3,340 acres of agriculturally-zoned land in the northeast part of the City known as South Morro Hills. The SOAR Initiative has many worthy goals, including protecting the environment, helping agriculture, and creating a City with a high quality of life. This study analyzes the direct and indirect effects the Initiative would produce, including some of the unintended consequences. The results would likely be very different from those envisioned by the individuals who drafted the Initiative and those who have supported it. Key takeaways include the following: • Other communities adopting a SOAR Initiative or similar policies have suffered slower job gains and rising home prices. Ventura County, which has been the template for Oceanside’s Initiative, has shifted from a region outperforming the State to one of underperformance. Companies have departed the County in record numbers. • Oceanside faces a housing crisis, as home prices have been rising at a 10% pace during the past five years while wages have increased by less than 2.5% per year. • The City has achieved less than 15% of its State-mandated housing target for 2021, whereas it should be at more than 50% of its goal by now. The Initiative would make it exceedingly difficult for the City to achieve its future housing goals. • Companies’ primary constraint now involves the supply of workers, which in turn depends on the availability of housing. Without adequate housing businesses will be forced to either downsize or leave the City. The complete study can be downloaded at www.OceansideSoarStudy.com www.oceansidechamber.com | Summer 2018

E V E R Y T H I N G I N S A N D I E G O CO U N T Y I S B R O U G H T T O YO U BY WAT E R By Mark Muir, Board Chair San Diego County Water Authority We’ve got a great thing going here in San Diego County, from the mountains to the coast and from the far northern reaches of our region to the international border. Our economy is strong – one of the largest in the nation – with everything from global giants to startups trying to make a splash. We’ve got the most small farms of any county in the country and innovative industries that put us on the map. And our quality of life is second to none. People come from all over the world to play here and stay here. They come for our attractions, our beer, our climate and everything else this great region offers. That makes me proud to call this place home. And it reminds me that none of this would be possible without one key ingredient: a safe and reliable water supply. Think about it: We get just 10 inches of rain a year at Lindbergh Field. That’s not enough to sustain even a small fraction of what we do here day in and day out. In fact, the last time our natural water resources were sufficient for San Diego County was 1946. At the time, San Diego was just at the start of its renaissance, first as a center of military operations, and later as one of the largest, most vibrant metropolitan areas in the nation.
20 | Oceanside Chamber of Commerce Quarterly Business Journal
Today, we boast an advanced economy that’s still a key military hub, and also a center of manufacturing, brewing, tourism, agriculture and so much else. There are lots of reasons for our collective success, but none more foundational than steady and sufficient water supplies. Water is critical for developing new smart phone technology, next-generation medicines, high-tech military ships and world-class guitars and banjos. And the list goes on. That’s where the San Diego County Water Authority and its 24 member agencies come in. Together, we secure, treat and deliver this vital resource 24/7/365. We do it in pioneering and innovative ways, like new and enlarged reservoirs and the nation’s largest seawater desalination plant. We also work the front lines of water-use efficiency with rebates and resources to stretch every drop, because we appreciate the value of the region’s investments in safe and reliable water supplies. So, every time you slice an avocado on your salad, use your smartphone for directions to the Gaslamp, watch your kid hit a home run on a Little League field, or stroll the tree-lined trails of Balboa Park, remember that this San Diego life is Brought to You by Water. For more on the Water Authority’s Brought to You by Water program, go to https://b2ubyh2o.org/.
