P-61 Mountain Lion Struck by Car, Dies Cougar who crossed 405 last month was killed near Sepulveda Pass By Keldine Hull On September 7, GPS tracked mountain lion P-61 was struck and killed on the 405 freeway in the Sepulveda Pass, near the same section he’d successfully crossed less than two months ago. His final GPS point indicated that he was between Bel Air Crest Road and the Sepulveda Boulevard underpass. According to a Facebook post from Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area,

“California Highway Patrol was initially alerted and moved P-61 out of traffic. City of Los Angeles Animal Control officers then retrieved his body and the radio-collar and notified both California Department of Fish and Wildlife personnel

and our researchers here at Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area.” Throughout the course of a 17-year study of mountain lions in or around the Santa Monica Mountains, P-61 made headlines in July as the first GPS tracked lion to successfully cross the 405 freeway. In 2011, P-18, a cougar outfitted with a GPS collar, was killed while trying to cross the same freeway. Although not a part of the study at the time, P-22 is the only known mountain lion to successfully cross the freeway. Researchers are still unclear why P-61, first outfitted with a GPS collar in October 2017, decided to cross the freeway again. The Facebook post continued, “Based on his GPS points, he had been staying close to the eastern edge of the 405 more recently. Over the last few years, we and

others have gotten remote camera photos of an uncollared male mountain lion that apparently lives in that area. A negative encounter between the two could have caused P-61 to move back west.” News of P-61’s passing comes shortly after the final design phase for the world’s largest wildlife crossing that would stretch 200 feet above 10 lanes of the 101 freeway. Slated to be completed in 2023, the new crossing will give animals of the Santa Monica Mountains safer access to food, open spaces and potential mates. In an interview with the Associated Press, Beth Pratt from the National Wildlife Federation said, “We’re not taking the freeway away from people. They can still drive yet we’re doing this beautiful thing for animals so that they don’t get hit by cars and so that they can have a future.”

Bringing Homeless into Policymaking? Bonin proposes commission composed entirely of people who are or have been homeless By Sam Catanzaro A week after a scathing report was released showing the agency tasked with tackling homelessness in Los Angeles County failed to meet many of its goals, an LA City Councilmember is suggesting bringing homeless or previously homeless individuals into the policymaking process to improve results. Councilmember Mike Bonin, who represents much of the Westside, has proposed the creation of a new advisory commission, composed entirely of people who are or have been homeless in Los Angeles. Bonin’s 11th District includes Venice where several encampments make the homelessness crisis especially evident, and Pacific Palisades. The commission proposed by Bonin, modeled after city advisory commissions on disability issues, children’s Native American issues and transgender issues, would provide expert and re-

al-world experience to improve policy-making, program development and budgeting decisions. “We set ourselves up for failure if we do not take into account the experience of people who have been homeless,” said Bonin. “Programs that sound good on paper or in a City Council meeting may not work given the complexities of being without housing. We need to be listening to the people who can tell us if the programs taxpayers are paying for are working as intended.” Earlier this month, Los Angeles City Controller Ron Galperin released a scathing audit that highlighted the county’s failure to house individuals experiencing homelessness. According to the audit, the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA) failed to meet seven of nine of its goals in the fiscal year 2017-2018 and five of eight goals in 2018-2019. This poor track record comes as LAHSA has doubled the number of outreach workers over the past two years. LAHSA responded by calling the report “misleading”, stating it “ultimately says nothing about LAHSA’s outreach efforts, which contacted record numbers of our homeless neighbors in the year it studied,” but the agency did agree that complaint-driven outreach should be de-emphasized throughout the system. At City Council meetings policymakers rou-

tinely hear about programs and policies from government officials, non-profit executives, business associations, neighborhood councils, homeowners, developers and activists from a variety of organizations and perspectives. One voice, however, has been largely missing: the voice of people who are homeless or have recently been homeless.

“As a result, elected officials and policymakers rarely hear when programs fail to work as advertised, when resources and staff are misaligned, how new ordinances impact people who are homeless, or how sexism, homophobia, and institutional racism impact services,” Bonin said.

ARNIE WISHNICK WAY? Bonin proposes renaming segment of Antioch Street after Palisades treasure. By Sam Catanzaro

earlier this year on April 28. Bonin’s motion, which passed out of Los Angeles City Council’s Public Works and Gang Reduction Committee on September 4, would change the name of Antioch Street from Via De La Paz to Swarthmore Avenue to "Arnie Wishnick Way” if passed by Council as a whole.

Councilmember Mike Bonin has proposed renaming a segment of Antioch Street in Pacific Palisades after Arnie Wishnick, the beloved community leader who passed away

spirit of Pacific Palisades encourages people to making an impact in their community. Moreover, Pacific Palisades is dedicated to honoring those who positively affect the neighborhood and everyone they Meet. Born in Chicago in 1942, Arnie Wishnick moved to Pacific Palisades after college and quickly became an involved community member. Mr. Wishnick served as executive director for the Pacific Palisades Chamber of Commerce, beginning in 1993, and spanning 25 years until 2018, when he stepped down a year before he passed away. He also devoted time to the Palisades community through various organizations, including the Optimist Club of Pacific Palisades, Palisades Teen Contest, Palisades Americanism Parade Association, and many other community events and committees. Mr. Wishnick showed his support of all niches of Palisades life, whether that be the arts through Theatre Palisades and Just OffVia Dance Troupe, or environmentalism and community improvement through Pride of the Palisades. As a neighbor within the Palisades community, Arnie Wishnick was a friend to everyone. Mr. Wishnick has been an icon of the Palisades community through his character and through the love that he shared with every person he interacted with. Community members remember Mr. Wishnick for his gregarious personality and positive viewpoint of life. Arnie Wishnick embodied the spirit of Pacific Palisades by providing a welcoming atmosphere for all who met him. Arnie

Councilmember Mike Bonin has proposed renaming a segment of Antioch Street in Pacific Palisades after the late Arnie Wishnick, pictured with his wife Jackie.

Wishnick has received many awards as a testament to his outstanding character and contributions to Pacific Palisades. He has most recently been honored with the Rotary Business Person of the Year Award from the Rotary Club of Pacific Palisades, the Pride of the Palisades Award from the Palisades Community Council, and the Mort Farberow Award. Arnie Wishnick was a giant in Pacific Palisades, deserving of recognition. It is appropriate that the City of Los Angeles rename [a] stretch of street in Pacific Palisades in his honor. Community members have suggested a section of Antioch Street, between Via De La Paz and Swarthmore Avenue. The street section runs directly in front of the offices of Pacific Palisades Chamber of Commerce, an important landmark in Mr. Wishnick’s life, the place where he devoted 25 years of his time to the Pacific Palisades community.

POLICY,

from page 1 To date, City officials have created standing commissions and advisory councils such as the Commission on the Status of Women, the Commission on Disability, the Commission on Community and Family Services, the Native American Indian Commission and the Transgender Advisory Council. Other cities, including Austin, Texas and Vancouver, Canada, have also used “lived experience” advisory commissions to offer guidance on homelessness policy decisions. In legislation Bonin submitted, he requested the city’s Chief Legislative Analyst to make recommendations to the City Council on the most

effective way to establish a Commission on Lived Experience with Homelessness, composed entirely of people who are currently, or have been in the recent past, homeless in Los Angeles. Bonin’s legislation further instructs the Legislative Analyst to consult with people who are or who have been homeless as they prepare their recommendations. In addition, Bonin’s motion recommends requirements to represent different segments and demographics of the homeless population, including accounting for the over-representation of African-Americans among individuals experiencing homelessness. Bonin’s legislation was seconded by Councilmember Marqueece Harris-Dawson and was referred to the Homelessness and Poverty Committee.

WHAT DOES $1 MILLION AND $2 MILLION BUY TODAY ON THE WESTSIDE? By Ron Wynn Let’s start and imagine you either are pre-approved for a loan and have an adequate down payment or maybe you have all cash but in either event you are limited to a purchase price of $1,000,000. Of course, by most people’s standards, that is a lot of money and should be more than enough to purchase a beautiful home. The reality, however, here on the Westside of Los Angeles where demand is strong and inventory is exceptionally low, price remains very very high and average home prices are over $700 per foot, going to double that amount in exclusive poshy, upscale areas. Let’s look now at what $1,000,000 can get you. Of course, condos and town homes are generally lower price and often newer, larger, and more updated. Location is also a huge factor. The more desirable the location, the less square footage you can get and the less likely it is to find a home at all, particularly where the land value alone could exceed $1,000,000. Choice Number 1 Condo/Townhouse— West LA, Westwood, Culver City, Palms, parts of Santa Monica. Square footage— 1,400-1,800 square feet depending on location, age and upgrades. A superior location, and newer buildings will push back on square footage. Choice Number 2 Fixer upper on small to average size lot. West LA, Palms, parts of Mar Vista, Culver City, Westchester— Square footage 800-1,400 square feet. The larger the lot and the better the location, the less square footage you can expect. Choice Number 3 Freeway adjacent homes or a home on a busy street or a home on a lot of less than 5,000 square feet. You might find a move-in ready home between 1,000-1,600 square feet if the location or land value is compromised by any of the above conditions. Choice Number 4 Leave the westside and go north to the Valley or south of LAX to Inglewood or Hawthorne and east to the West Adams area or further east. Choice Number 5 Purchase a duplex for slightly above $1,000,000 and qualify for a larger loan, allowing the income from the second unit to help qualify you for a larger loan. Now let’s take another look at what $2,000,000 will buy you today. Choice Number 1 Condo or townhouse. You can buy a very nice, updated, spacious condo in a very prime location such as Santa Monica, Brentwood, Westwood and possibly Beverly Hills. The size could be up to 2,200 square feet, but you have homeowner association dues to consider. Choice Number 2 A major fixer in a good location. Houses in Sunset Park or in Westwood and Cheviot Hills on a lot of 7500 feet are almost $2,000,000, just for the dirt. (In North Santa Monica, you can add another million)

Choice Number 3 Single family home that is move-in ready. You can buy a very nice home around 1,800-2,000 square feet in Mar Vista, Westwood, Culver City, Westchester, Westside Village, Rancho Park, Cheviot Hills, and Beverlywood. Areas such as Cheviot Hills and Westwood are less likely to offer a move-in ready home at $2,000,000 but it is possible, usually with slightly less than 2,000 square feet. A move-in ready home, depending on the location, could be priced at $900 to $1,100 per foot. Choice Number 4 Single family home in more expensive location. You can buy a small fixer in South Brentwood and Brentwood Glen, Westwood, south of Wilshire and prime Cheviot Hills; all upscale, slightly more expensive locations. You might even find a fixer in Beverly Hills on a small lot, south of Wilshire, but it may be close to apartments or commercial buildings. Here you are paying for a better neighborhood location, and sacrificing either lot size, square footage or the condition of the home; thus the home could likely need remodeling or have fewer rooms. Choice Number 5 You can buy a home closer to the ocean or a home with views. Here you might want to live in Venice or Ocean Park or perhaps in Beverlywood or Cheviot Hills, paying for a view. The trade off will be less square footage and possibly a smaller lot or a home that needs updating. Choice Number 6 You can buy a home with a larger than 8,000 square foot lot. You might find a home in Mar Vista, Westwood or Sunset Park that needs updating, but the attraction is a bigger lot. Choice Number 7 You can buy a home far up a Canyon and far from a major access street or up a steep off-street driveway in upper Bel Air. Another possibility might be Bel Air Crest on a small lot with HOA dues, or a townhome in Mountain Gate or Palisades Highlands. The inconvenience and possible fire hazard might buy you seclusion, serenity and a location that is remote, quiet, peaceful and zen. Choice Number 8 You can go north to Encino or Sherman Oaks and get either 20% more square footage and possibly a 50% larger lot and maybe views too, still paying around $2,000,000. As you can see, there are many choices, but for most people, relocating from other places there is a learning curve and sticker shock when first coming into our market. People have often said to me, “Oh my God, you don’t get anything here for $2,000,000. It’s hard to argue with people’s feelings, but for me, a realtor who knows the choices exceptionally well, I simply say… “Unfortunately, it is what it is.” Thankfully you do have choices even though those choices come with significant limitations. My goal is to listen carefully to people’s needs, whether it is about schools, convenience, safety, children and pets, special age and health needs or location proximity needs. From there, I can make suggestions, recommendations and help people make their best possible choice. For comments or questions ron@ronwynn.com

LAFD’s New Helicopter Additional chopper bolsters fleet as fire season begins By S taff W riter

Brush Fire Breaks Out in Malibu Sweetwater Fire erupts near Surfrider Beach By Sam Catanzaro Over 200 firefighters made quick work containing a 40-acre brush fire that broke out in Malibu August 30. The fire, called the Sweetwater Fire, was first reported at about 11:30 a.m. near Pacific Coast Highway and Sweetwater Canyon Road. At 1:59 p.m., the Los Angeles County Fire Department (LACOFD) announced that firefighters made quick work containing the fire in very steep terrain with help from the Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD) and Cal Fire. At

the time of publishing, the fire is at 60 percent containment. Fixed-wing tankers were used as well to dump retardant on the blaze. “Firefighters continue the difficult work of shoring up and reinforcing containment lines in steep terrain. Cause investigators on scene. Mop operations will continue into the evening and @LACOFD personnel will remain on the scene throughout the night on fire watch,” LACOFD wrote in a 2:18 p.m. tweet. There were no immediate reports of injuries or evacuations and no homes are currently threatened. Officials had warned of high fire danger throughout the weekend due to hot and dry weather combined with gusty afternoon winds.

Say hello to LA's newest firefighting helicopter just a fire season begins. Recently Councilmember Mike Bonin, who represents much of the Westside, announce that the additional helicopter he worked to purchase for LAFD Fire Station 114 Air Operations has been delivered. In May of 2017, Bonin rushed to the Mandeville Canyon and Mountaingate areas of Brentwood after hearing reports that a brush fire had broken out. Thanks to the brave men and women of the Los Angeles Fire Department, cooperative weather and the homeowners' associations and property owners in the area who have been vigilant about brush clearance, first responders were able to get the blaze under control before it claimed any lives or property. “While at the fire command post, Mike learned the scary fact that half of the helicopters in our LAFD fleet were grounded that day because of a maintenance backlog. As soon as he was back in Council Chambers the next week, he took immedi-

ate action to make sure our first responders have the tools they need to save lives, including addressing the backlog and purchasing an additional helicopter,” reads Bonin’s August newsletter. With a lot of brush and difficult to reach hillsides, the threat of a disastrous fire has always been a frightening possibility for homeowners in areas like the Mandeville Canyon and Palisades Highlands neighborhoods of Los Angeles. In addition to adding the helicopter to LAFD’s fleet, Bonin pushed to create a City aviation Administrator position, filled by a seasoned expert with extensive helicopter industry and fleet maintenance experience. This high-level position would be empowered to cut through government red tape, streamline approvals, and do whatever is necessary to ensure the operational readiness of the City’s helicopter fleet.

Pali’s Coach Kling Becomes CA’s Winningest High School Tennis Coach 40 seasons of victory for Pali legend By C had W inthrop Palisades Charter High School Dolphins tennis coach Bud Kling has become the

winningest high school tennis coach in state history. Kling, who reached this achievement with a Pali Dolphins girls tennis team victory over Nevada's Bishop Gorman earlier this month, now has 1,248 wins and counting. Robbin Adair, who coached the Coronado High School boys held the previous record of 1,245 overall wins. Kling, who graduated from UCLA, began his Pali tennis journey as the assistant coach to Bud Ware in 1977 before taking over the head coach role in 1979. Since then Kling, who is Pali's longest-tenured coach, has gone on to do one thing: lead teams to victory, possessing a .903 winning percentage over the decades. Over the years, Kling. who was inducted into the CIF-LA Hall of Fame in 2017, has coached both the boys and girls tennis teams

at Pali High. He led the girls for all but one season between 1984-2007 before stepping down only to return in 2015 to coach the girls to four straight section titles. Over 40 seasons, Kling has coached the boys to 37 league titles and 27 City titles. At age 72, Kling is still going strong and has his eyes on another state record: CIF titles. Kling currently has 45 CIF titles, five away from the record 50 held by Monta Vista and Bellarmine Prep swimming coach Larry Rogers. Given Kling's track record and winning percentage, one may want to bet the Pali legend will top this record. Photo: Facebook

Monica Municipal Pier opened to the public on September 9, 1909. According to the Office of Pier Management (OPM) website, “Thousands of people swarmed onto the 1,600-foot-long concrete pier to enjoy a festive day of band concerts, swimming races and the novelty of walking above the waters of the Pacific Ocean.” A few years later, Charles I.D. Looff, who built Coney Island’s first carousel in 1876, purchased the land south of the pier for development. In 1916, Looff, along with his son, designed and built the first successful amusements in Santa Monica’s north beach. The Hippodrome, which housed one of their carousels, still stands today as Santa Monica’s first National Historic Landmark. The Carousel, which included 44 hand-carved horses, was built in 1922 on the Pleasure Pier and rebuilt inside the Hippodrome in 1990. In 1923, a few years after Looff passed away, the Santa Monica Amusement Company purchased the pier with plans for expansion. According to the OPM, “Their plans included expanding the Pier’s thrill rides, beginning with the removal and replacement of the Blue Streak Racer with a

larger, faster coaster – the Whirlwind Dipper – in 1924.” Included in their construction was the La Monica Ballroom. “Vast and ornate, the ballroom consumed so much of the Pier that, when viewed from the beach, it appeared as a monumental building floating magically above the sea,” the OPM continued. In 1948, the La Monica Ballroom made history when Spade Cooley televised the first live musical television show from the ballroom. The 1930s saw the birth of the famous “Muscle Beach,” with regulars like Jack LaLanne and Joe Gold of Gold’s Gym. In 1940, the famous neon sign recognized all around the world was installed at the top of the Pier by the Santa Monica Pier Businessmen’s Association. Three years later, Walter Newcomb purchased the Looff Amusement Pier, and in the early 1970’s it was sold again to the City. Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, Santa Monica nearly lost the Pier twice; once to a failed plan by City Council to destroy the Pier and replace it with a resort hotel and again in 1983 to winter storms that annihilated over one- third of the

Pier’s length. The Pier Restoration and Development Task Force saw to the reconstruction of the Pier and by 1990, the entire western structure was rebuilt. “The Twilight Dance” debuted in 1983 as part of “Save the Pier Week” and still exists today as the Twilight on the Pier concert series. In 1996, Pacific Park opened becoming the first amusement park on the Pier since 1930. Over a century later, millions of visitors travel to the Pier each year for the shops, restaurants and attractions. Steeped in history, the Pier remains to be one of the most iconic symbols of Southern California.

Lynley got her start as a successful child model for the Sears & Roebuck department store in New York and transitioned to Broadway in her early teens. In 1959 and 1960, she was nominated for a Golden Globe for her roles in “The Light in the Forest” and “Blue Denim” respectively. Lynley also starred in “Return to Peyton Place” (1961), “Under the Yum Yum Tree” (1963) alongside Jack Lemon, “The Cardinal” (1963) and 1965’s “The Bunny Lake is Missing” with Laurence Olivier and Noel Coward. Lynley’s role as skittish lounge singer Nonnie Parry in “Poseidon Adventure” (1972) was perhaps one of her most wellknown roles. Her character performed the Academy Award hit “The Morning After,” although the vocals were dubbed. The blond hair, blue eyed beauty also appeared in several television shows including “Hawaii Five- 0, “The Love Boat,” “Charlie’s Angels” and “The Man from U.N.C.L.E.” Her last known role was in 2006 in Sylvester Stallone’s 30-minute COMING SOON

shoot “Vic.” Lynley’s daughter, Jill Selsman, told People in a statement, “She loved to dance, going to the ballet, seeing anything on Broadway. I basically lived at Lincoln Center as a child because of her. She had an easy approach to life and always took the good with the bad. She was a bon vivant. There really was no situation that couldn’t

be improved or ignored because there really was so much fun to be had, why dwell on things you can’t change.” Selsman continued, “Clearly, you can’t change death, but if there is a world beyond, she’s dancing with her great friend Fred Astaire and enjoying her new life as much as she enjoyed her previous one.”

Coastal Cleanup Day Comes to Pali Saturday, September 21 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. By Staff Writer Coordinated by Heal the Bay for the 30th consecutive year, Coastal Cleanup Day returns Saturday, September 21 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. Heal the Bay is an environmental nonprofit committed to making coastal waters and watersheds throughout Los Angeles healthy and clean. According to their website, “Coastal Cleanup Day is an international day of action to protect our oceans, watersheds and wildlife from trash and debris. This massive volunteering effort has an astounding impact on many of our local natural habitats and communities. Heal the Bay proudly coordinates cleanup locations in Los Angeles County in association with Ocean Conservancy and California Coastal Commission.” During last year’s Coastal Cleanup Day, over

13,000 volunteers participated in removing 59,600 pounds of trash and debris throughout Los Angeles County. Statewide, over 66,000 volunteers worked together to clear 839,629 pounds of trash, and over 20 million pounds of trash and debris were collected worldwide through the efforts of 789,138 volunteers. Clean-up site locations in Pacific Palisades are: Will Rogers State Beach- South Tower 15 17000 Pacific Coast Highway at Temescal Canyon Road Will Rogers State Beach- Central Tower 7 17000 Pacific Coast Highway at Temescal Canyon Road Temescal Canyon Park 224-396 Temescal Canyon Road To learn more about how to get involved, visit:healthebay.org/event/coastal-cleanup-day-2019/

The United States House of Representatives voted this week to pass H.R. 1941, a bill that bans new drilling off the Pacific and Atlantic Coasts and Straits of Florida. "California is home to more than 800 miles of coastline, and its coastal economies annually generate hundreds of billions of dollars in wages nationally and nearly $2 trillion in GDP. A disaster could put at risk nearly 746,000 West Coast jobs and $53 billion in GDP that relies on healthy ocean ecosystems and a clean marine environment,” said Rep. Harley Rouda (CA-48). "Offshore drilling disasters impact more than just coastal com-

munities – it impacts future generations of Americans. Citizens deserve to know which companies are drilling off our shores, the locations of their facilities, and the safety and state of their operations.” The bill, which passed 238 - 189 in the Democratic-controlled House now must past the Republican-controlled Senate.

OPINION

Desalination Loses Urgency In Hyper-wet Winter TOM ELIAS Mirror Columnist

Desalination began to lose its urgency among Californians and their public officials two years ago, after the drought-busting winter of 2016-17, when heavy rain and snow ended dry conditions in most of the state. The idea of drawing potable water from the sea became even less of a priority this year, when an autumn of record-level fires gave way to one of the state’s wettest winters on record. Reservoirs are brimming. Instead of desperately seeking new sources of water, Californians were moaning about the billions of excess gallons that washed into the Pacific Ocean and the San Francisco Bay. Depleted aquifers began their path to replenishment, too, with snow levels in the water-producing Sierra Nevada Mountains far above normal. All this helps explain why a new governor seemingly obsessed with infrastructure (he’s spurred initiatives on housing, transport and utility bailouts) has said little or nothing about desalination. That’s a stark contrast to the early years of this decade, when drought was persistent and severe, with water rationing common around the state and xeriscaping becoming

commonplace, desert plants even getting subsidies from local governments. The difference is nothing new. For the cold, wet California reality is that when reservoirs are filled, there is not only less political pressure to build more, but any urgency about building new ocean-water desalination plants disappears. Desalination is always tantalizing here because – like Samuel Coleridge’s ancient mariner, who complained of “water, water everywhere and not a drop to drink” – Californians can see billions of acre feet of salt water every day, in the ocean and all its bays, coves and estuaries. But that water is briny, containing an array of minerals that make it almost as inaccessible today as it was to Coleridge’s parched, fictitious sailor of 189 years ago. It won’t necessarily stay that way. Whenever the price of other water rises, desalinating Pacific waters becomes enticing. It will become more so if the price of filtering minerals out of salt water drops. But when water prices and supplies remain at reasonable levels, as they surely will this year and next, desal takes a back seat. That’s how it is right now everywhere except on the Monterey Peninsula, which last month approved a start to construction on a new desal plant. Will more wet years quash that? All this may not sit so well in San Diego County, where Boston-based Poseidon Wa-

“Desalinated water is now the most expensive alternative California water districts can pursue. That’s the main reason there are less than 10 active proposals for seawater desalination along the California coast today, down from 21 in 2012.”

ter since late 2015 has run America’s largest desalination plant on the coast at Carlsbad. This plant aims to supply almost 10 percent of the San Diego area’s water needs, also giving San Diego a degree of independence from the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (often called the Met), through which the area gets supplies from the state Water Project and the Colorado River Aqueduct. The desalinated water is ferociously expensive, costing San Diego

area residents more than double what they pay for other supplies. But it does improve the San Diego Water Authority’s bargaining position with the Met. The San Diego district buys at least 48,000 acre-feet of water from Poseidon yearly, but can demand 56,000 in any year it feels the need. That won’t happen in 2019. An acre-foot contains about 330,000

Don’t be certain that every new home is covered by a 10 year builders warranty. If the developer applied for a remodel permit saving a wall of the previous structure, the developer not only skirted many fees that are “new build” specific but also the obligation to provide a 10 year warranty. The developer will typically provide a far less comprehensive warranty for a period of time at the discretion of mutual agreement between the developer and the buyer. Be sure to read and understand the warranty to know what is covered and what is not. Perhaps have the warranty reviewed by an attorney if you feel the language is unclear or in any way ambiguous.

If I’m making upgrades to a new home, is it reasonable to pay for the upgrades in advance? Yes, it is totally reasonable for a developer to ask for payment in advance of the requested modifications as the builder is changing the home to your specific needs and will likely need to remove much of your custom improvements if you fail to complete the purchase. It is also important to understand that making changes to a design package will slow down the builder’s project and proposed date if completion.

What should we look out for when we do new home inspections? Always be sure to go full throttle on inspections. Your standard physical inspection report may likely recommend further investigation in the areas of drainage, geology and environmental if anything comes up in question. Often the installations of fireplaces are incomplete to meet all current safety codes and therefore a fireplace specialist should inspect each fireplace. If you are building a new home there is no certainty that the sewer connection is brand new. That being the case, I would suggest a sewer inspection as well. Ventilation can be inadequate as can be the case with weather proofing and waterproofing. Be specifically focused on sub areas and basements during the inspection process to determine moisture intrusions of any type.

Can you buy from a developer on a contingency to sell your current home? Many developers will agree to a purchase contingent on selling your current home. Every developer has their own criteria for if they would agree and under what conditions they would agree.

from page 10 gallons, roughly the amount a typical family uses in a year. At the depth of the drought, the Met paid some farmers in the Sacramento Valley an average of $694 per acre-foot for parts of their supply, some of which was shipped to San Diego. Even at that inflated price, this water cost less than Poseidon’s product. These numbers establish that desalinated water is now the most expensive alternative California water districts can pursue. That’s the main reason there are less than 10 active proposals for seawater desalination along the California coast today, down from 21 in 2012. But if new methods to purify sea water beyond the standard technique of reverse osmosis ever become workable (and several ideas are percolating), all bets would be off. All of which means that the more it rains, the more the prospects for new desalinated water fall. But like crocuses in the spring, they will surely bloom again the next time a serious drought arises.

NOTICED MORE HOMES FOR SALE NOW? It’s all about price, time and perception! By Michael Edlen, Real Estate Consultant

Buyers and sellers have rarely been as fixed in their positions as they recently have been in the Palisades and in similar markets. Many buyers expect they can buy at great discounts from the list price, having read about the market slowing down. They have been observing that many homes have sold at significantly lower prices than the sellers hoped for months earlier. Often, they are waiting even to make an offer on a home that meets most of their criteria, feeling that the longer it is on the market the lower it will sell for. During the same recent market period, many homeowners have not actually listed their homes but rather are hoping one of the many agents will come with an offer at a price beyond what they had wished to receive. They have let agents know that they would be receptive to an offer if it was presented at a specifically determined price, or have actually listed their homes at their dream price. These homeowners have no impelling reason to sell, so are content to wait for an enthusiastic buyer to come forth with abundant funds. Like the waiting buyer, they are in no hurry, believing this is a seller’s market, and it is only a matter of time before they get the price they want. In fact, many of them are basing their expectations on what they have been told their homes might be worth which was based on sales that may have

occurred several months earlier when the market was stronger. Thus many would-be buyers and would-be sellers are in a holding pattern, even though interest rates are lower than they have been in the last decade and ideal matches could be made quite readily. Each side is viewing the same market from an opposite perspective. And, in fact, there are a variety of data points that can be viewed in support of the buyers/sellers position as it pertains to them. Sellers point out how their homes are worth more than some that sold months ago, while buyers focus on the statistics that indicate a market

slowdown is in process. Human nature and emotions are playing a greater role today in the disparity of the market, and these are now more of a factor than relevant sales or market statistics alone. As a result, many people are interpreting the market based partially on the outcome they desire, either as a buyer or potential seller. So what does the picture really look like in the Palisades? Even though interest rates are lower now than they were at this time last year, 16% fewer homes have been bought so far this year and inventory of homes for sale has increased

more than 40%. Some local agents now appear to have more than 15 listings to manage, reflecting the changes in the market thus far this year. Not surprisingly, buyer’s expectations of lower prices have been rewarded in recent months, with 45% of the local listings having had price reductions. In this context, if an owner really wants to sell now, it behooves them to select an agent who has actually succeeded in selling some homes in 2019 and find out what percentage of their listings have actually sold. If the agent was in real estate in 2007 and especially the late 1990’s here in the Palisades, they also will have the advantage of experience in a transitioning market. The homeowner will do well to be sure their home is priced correctly so that it is actually “in the market”, not just “on the market”. Similarly if a buyer is really in the market, there are many other equally well-qualified seekers who have been looking for many months to find their ideal home, and sellers are often entering into contracts in the Palisades. To wait rather than make an offer when a home meets most of the desired criteria might result in missing out on the best fit that will come available for many months in the future.

FILM REVIEW: “Vita & Virginia”

WWW.PALISADESNEWS.COM

Not Rated 110 Minutes Released August 30

Photo: IPC Films.

“Whether you are a Virginia Woolf scholar or you have never heard of this great writer who lived in England from 1882 until her death in 1941, you should find this to be an intriguing psychological study of a highly unusual relationship.”

BEHIND THE SCREEN By Kathryn Whitney Boole The movie “Vita & Virginia” premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2018 and has just recently been released in theatres. This film could be framed and hung on the wall like a painting at an art museum. The visuals of the film are that breathtaking. The camera seems to dwell just long enough on the landscapes, the interiors and the faces, which are all exquisitely framed and lit. Director Chanya Button, cinematographer Carlos De Carvalho and production designer Noam Piper have set the stage of late 1920’s England with sumptuous color and detail. This story is based on a real friendship between two eccentric and unique personalities, the great author Virginia Woolf and English novelist/poet Vita Sackville-West. The film is slow moving, yet there is a definite rhythm and motion to the narrative that pulls in your attention, and the history of these two women is fascinating. Director Button wrote the screenplay based on historical letters that were written between the two writers. Undoubtedly some artistic license was taken. However their portrayals are probably quite accurate. Whether you are a Virginia Woolf scholar or you have never heard of this great writer who lived in England from 1882 until her death in 1941, you should find this to be an intriguing psychological study of a highly unusual relationship. Liaisons of this type were actually quite common during that time period

in England. However they were well-hidden from the public since they were unacceptable to the social mores. Gemma Arterton, a fine actress who is also one of the producers of the film, portrays Vita Sackville-West. Elizabeth Debicki, whose face looks hauntingly like the real Virginia Woolf creates a complex and believable impression of Woolf, with astounding sensitivity and realism. The film also offers a window into 1920’s London, and may even inspire you to read some of Woolf’s superb writing. One scene brings to mind that the art of writing, the creative connection between mind and pen, has perhaps been sadly lost in our modern culture. Woolf’s mental state was always precarious and Debicki masters the nuance of her mental anguish. In her youth Woolf had been devastated by the deaths of her mother, her older sister and her father. Her bouts with madness were manifested physically by excruciating headaches, severe depression and a disconnect with the ability to speak. Her attacks seemed to grow worse with each loss of someone close. Debicki portrays a jarring and frightening loss of control over her senses that allows us to relate to the pain of this literary giant. In case you think that powerful women are a new phenomenon of the 21st Century, this movie will perhaps motivate you to read some history. Kathryn Whitney Boole has spent most of her life in the entertainment industry, which has been the backdrop for remarkable adventures with extraordinary people.

Malibu Hiker Dies of Heatstroke Emergency crews rescue multiple individuals Labor Day

PCH Fully Shut Down After Violent Palisades Crash Pile-up occurs near PCH and Chautauqua By S am C atanzaro The Pacific Coast Highway (PCH) was shut down for several hours this week after a violent crash closed down the highway in both directions on Tuesday morning. According to the Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD) the pile-up, which oc-

Two victims were hospitalized and their condition is unknown. Incorrect information from Caltrans and KTLA reported that the crash resulted in a fatality, but according to the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) there were no deaths. The highway was reopened shortly before 1 p.m. according to Caltrans.

STAR GAZING

ARIES (March 21 - April 20) August 17th will bring Aries positive changes in everything that is connected with the sphere of finance. You will be informed that your salary will rise to a fairly large amount, and you will want to shout with delight at such news. However, along with more income, you will, unexpectedly, have a new expense. TAURUS (April 21 - May 21) For Taurus, the most unpleasant event of this day will be the departure of a loved one. Seeing him off, pretend that separation does not frighten you. If the partner reads on your face fears and worries about this, his mood will change for the worse. GEMINI (May 22 - June 21) Gemini today will be at a dead end performing a very responsible job. The only way out for you is to seek help from your senior colleagues. Do not be afraid to be known as an inexperienced newcomer who cannot cope on his own with an elementary task. CANCER (June 22 - July 22) Cancers today will find a loophole through which one can escape from a very difficult conversation. You will successfully solve this issue, but sooner or later it will arise again. It will be reasonable if you determine in advance, in a dialogue with yourself, how you will respond to your companion when they again invite you to discuss it. LEO (July 23 - August 23) Leos on August 17, 2018 will have unpleasant experiences of their own well-being. You will have to see a doctor to find out the causes of this ailment. Friday will not bring you other unpleasant moments. You will not be able to perform any new feats (the reason for this is the unsatisfactory state of your body). VIRGO (August 24 - September 22) Virgos today are not recommended to allow themselves pessimistic thoughts. They will amplify your insolent attitude, and you will not be able to achieve the main goals outlined for today. If your cherished goal is attention from some person, it's all the more inadmissible to depress yourself. LIBRA (September 23 - October 22) Libra on August 17, 2018 will not have big changes, but this day can be called absolutely calm for the representatives of your sign only as a great stretch. You will be constantly disturbed by annoying accidents and misunderstandings taking place in official affairs and in everything that concerns your love front. SCORPIO (October 23 - November 21) Scorpios today will not be able to calm down, having learned the unpleasant news. Your sweetheart will "turn you away at the gate", making you doubt your attractiveness. To increase your self-esteem, you will begin a romance (more precisely, an affair without obligations). SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 21) Today, Sagittarius face the risk of betrayal or treason. You cannot control this process, and the only thing you can do is work on your emotional state. It is important for you to understand that because of what happened in your life will not end, and therefore you do not need to worry too much about this. CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 20) Capricorns will manage to hold this Friday easily and positively. You will not feel particularly tired from work, and you will want to transform the evening of this day into a small holiday. Guests who you invite to your house for a small feast will also arrive in a beautiful mood. AQUARIUS (January 21 - February 19) Aquarius today are recommended to give their duty the utmost attention. You are being watched, although you do not notice it. The person who controls your work will certainly notice if you are continually being distracted by conversations with colleagues (or playing on social networks, or talking on the phone). PICES (January 21 - February 19) Pisces today should not offer their advice to an outsider. He will fundamentally misinterpret this advice, and therefore it will bring an effect that is opposite to the one you expected. Later, this person will blame you for all mortal sins. You do not need it.
