UC poll: Residents almost evenly divided over recall By MADISON HIRNEISEN NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

A UC Berkeley poll released this week found that among the Californians most likely to vote, 47% say they would vote “yes” to remove Gov. Gavin Newsom from office. This latest poll comes just seven weeks ahead of the Sept. 14 recall election when registered voters will determine whether Gov. Newsom will be removed from office. Last week, the state certified a list of more than 40 gubernatorial candidates. The poll, which was completed by the UC Berkeley Institute of Governmental Studies, emphasized the pivotal role voter turnout will play in Gov. Newsom’s political fate. The study found that while only 36% of the state’s overall electorate would vote “yes” to the recall, 47% of those who are most likely to cast their ballot are in favor of recalling the governor. In addition, the study found that 50% of voters would vote “no” to the recall effort and 3% are still undecided. In order for Gov. Newsom to be removed from office, more than 50% of voters would need to vote “yes” to the recall. While the odds are still in the Democratic governor’s favor, the chasm is narrowing. Bobbi McGinnis, the chairwoman of the Santa Barbara County Republican Party, told the News-Press Wednesday that the poll’s results show “Californians are paying attention” to the governor’s policies and procedures, which she said are “driving people out” of the state. Ms. McGinnis cited increased tax rates, high gas prices and the overall cost of living in California as reasons Gov. Newsom should be removed from his position. She also cited a recent study from the attorney governor’s office that showed homicides increased 31% between 2019 and 2020. Ms. McGinnis blamed

Gov. Newsom’s criminal justice policies for the increase. With the election just seven weeks away, Ms. McGinnis said she’s feeling confident that recall effort can prevail. Leading up to Sept. 14, she said the county’s Republican Party will be knocking on doors and phone banking to encourage people to vote “yes” on the ballot. “This gives Californians a real opportunity to change the direction of the state,” Ms. McGinnis said. “If they want to keep business here, if they want to keep kids here, if they want to reduce housing costs, vote yes on the recall.” With support for the recall gaining traction among those most enthusiastic to cast their ballot, Spencer Brandt, the organizing director for the county’s Democratic Party, said the key to stamping out the recall effort will be to engage residents who voted for Gov. Newsom in 2018 and Joe Biden in 2020 to come out and vote “no” to the recall. He said he’s unsure of how many registered voters know about the upcoming recall Please see RECALL on A2

Finding closure after debris flow

Kim Cantin talks to News-Press about the discovery of her son Jack’s remains in Montecito By MADISON HIRNEISEN NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Three and a half years after the devastating Montecito debris flow destroyed her home and took the lives of half her family, Kim Cantin has finally received some closure. At last, after 40 months of searching and hoping, the remains of Mrs. Cantin’s 17-year-old son, Jack, were found in Montecito earlier this year. Mrs. Cantin, a survivor of the debris flow, said the remains of her 17-year-old son, Jack Cantin, were discovered in May within 1,000 yards of where the family’s home on Hot Springs Road once stood. Jack and his father, Dave Cantin, were among the 23 people who perished in the debris flow. In the days following the Jan. 9, 2018, debris flow, search and rescue

crews were unable to locate Jack’s body. This led to an effort that culminated in more than three years of searching by community members and anthropologists. A team of UCSB anthropologists and undergraduate researchers are 90% confident that they discovered Jack’s remains in May. While the information is still being confirmed by the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office, Mrs. Cantin said she is relieved to be able to bury her son with dignity. “One of the most horrible things that I experienced — that I would wish on no one — was to lose a loved one where they kind of essentially vanished and you don’t know where they are, and you want to have them to lay them to rest with dignity. I wasn’t afforded Please see CANTIN on A4

Complaints doubled over jets’ noise Santa Barbara Airport works to accommodate neighbors’ concerns By ANNELISE HANSHAW NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

ARTHUR VON WIESENBERGER/NEWS-PRESS

A Southwest Boeing 737 flies over the Hope Ranch neighborhood. Residents of Hope Ranch report many of the airport’s noise complaints.

66833 00050

The largest aircrafts land on Runway 25. Its voluntary path directs pilots over the ocean before turning left through More Mesa and onto the runway. Southwest Airlines is working with SBA to get the FAA’s formal approval of a noise-abatement approach. The airport is pushing for a quick approval, hoping it would direct more pilots away from populated areas. When pilots don’t take a noiseabatement approach, the airport reminds them of the preferred route. Additionally, air-traffic controllers approve pilots for takeoff and landing by specifying

the route they should take. Controllers call planes off-route to learn possible issues. Each noise complaint is investigated by Santa Barbara Airport staff, who document each case and research what conditions may have caused the change in approach. “We have multiple people working on this, and it is taking the capacity that we have (to the point) where we may need to bring more bodies on board,” Mr. Keller said. The airport receives about 52 complaints each day, which Mr. Keller says is akin to 2019’s volume. Please see COMPLAINTS on B4

Elizabeth Gabler, a longtime resident of Hope Ranch, can hear the airplanes coming while she is inside her home. She runs outside and looks at the plane’s identifying marks before calling in a noise complaint. In fact, she has memorized the number of the automated complaint system. She’s that frustrated by the loud hums of jet engines. Noise complaints are common at Santa Barbara Municipal Airport now that more flights have resumed. The volume of

complaints has doubled since last month, Airport Operations Manager Aaron Keller told the News-Press. The airport is trying to be neighborly, but its options are limited by Federal Aviation Administration laws. In the interest of safety, the FAA doesn’t allow airports to establish a mandatory flight path. Pilots must be able to change paths based on weather and other conditions. The Santa Barbara Airport has voluntary noise-abatement approaches set for each runway. Smaller planes often use Runway 15L and 15R and are directed to fly over Highway 101.

State aligns with CDC guidelines for masking By MADISON HIRNEISEN NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

The California Department of Public Health aligned with new guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Wednesday and is recommending universal masking indoors for all people, regardless of vaccination status. Citing surging case rates associated with the Delta variant, CDPH is asking all Californians to start masking indoors again as an “extra precautionary measure” to slow the spread of disease, according to a statement. The update guidance is a recommendation, not a mandate. “The Delta variant has caused a

Officials reported 15 new cases in Santa Maria, 14 new cases in Lompoc and the nearby communities of Mission Hills and Vandenberg Village, and 13 new cases in Santa Barbara and the unincorporated area of Mission Canyon. Eight new infections were reported in Orcutt and in Isla Vista, and four new cases were reported in both Goletta and the unincorporated area of the Goleta Valley and Gaviota. In the Santa Ynez Valley, three new infections were reported. And one new case was reported in the South Coast unincorporated areas of Summerland, Montecito and the city of Carpinteria and in

the North County unincorporated areas of Sisquoc, Casmalia, Garey, Cuyama and New Cuyama and the city of Guadalupe. Three cases were pending on Wednesday. The county’s active case rate is currently 366 infections. Santa Barbara currently has the highest rate of active infections at 70, followed by Lompoc with 65 and Santa Maria with 59. As of data from Tuesday, 61.5% of eligible county residents ages 12 and older are fully vaccinated, and 69.6% of that population is partially vaccinated. Of the entire county population, 52% of people are fully vaccinated.

who reject this partisan power grab. However, there are a number of people in California who I believe do not know about this recall because of its unusual nature.” To combat the recall effort, Mr. Brandt said he and his team with the county’s Democratic Party will continue to canvas on weekends and knock on doors to encourage voters to get out and vote in the upcoming election. “I’m still feeling very confident that we will defeat the recall,” Mr.

Brandt said. “Our whole strategy is to get out in the streets and knock on doors and inform them this election is happening and inform them about the good work (Gov. Newsom) has done since being in office.” Leading up to the Sept. 14 election day, Santa Barbara County officials are still searching for 200 volunteers to serve as poll workers on the day of the election. In order to be a poll worker, a volunteer must be a registered voter in California or lawfully

admitted for permanent residence in the United States, be able to follow written and verbal directions, be available on election day between 6 a.m. and 9 p.m. and must be available to attend a mandatory training class. Poll workers who volunteer will receive a stipend of between $180 and $240 for their service.

The U.S. had more medals than anyone else Wednesday at the Olympics. On that day, Team USA had 32 medals — 12 golds, 11 silvers and nine bronzes. China was in second place with 27 medals — 12 golds, six silvers and nine bronzes. ROC is in third place and — well, you may be wondering what “ROC” is. It’s the Russian Olympics Committee, and it’s how Russian athletes are competing despite a two-year ban from the World Anti-Doping Agency. Technically, no athletes can represent Russia at the OIympics, Paralympics or World Championships. The Russian athletes aren’t allowed to wear a flag or other symbol representing Russia. And the Russian anthem isn’t played when ROC athletes win a medal. That said, as of Wednesday, the ROC athletes had won 24 medals — seven golds, 11 silvers and six bronzes. And as of Wednesday, Japan was in fourth place for the medal count with 22 medals. But Japan had the highest number of gold medals — 13. The rest of its medals were four silvers and five bronzes. Also on Wednesday, Australia and Great Britain were tied for fifth place with 16 medals each.

Teens interact with police at Cops & Kids Camp By ANNELISE HANSHAW NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Teenagers reported an 18% increase in feeling safe and trusting police officers after a fourday Cops & Kids Camp hosted by the Santa Barbara Police Activities League. The 32 participants joined Santa

Barbara police officers at Circle V Ranch Camp for summer activities such as swimming, hiking and skits. They also learned from workshops such as the Street Smarts Program, which encourages leadership and teambuilding. The free camp, which is near

Lake Cachuma, gives youth an opportunity to ask questions of police officers and develop mentorships. The officers also gain insight into today’s teens’ stresses. “At the core of it is that we care about each other. It gives us the opportunity to learn about each other and learn from each other.

It’s as helpful to the officers as it is to the youth who are able to attend,” Lt. Aaron Baker of the Santa Barbara Police Department said in a news release. SBPAL conducts surveys before and after camp asking participants about their feelings and hopes. The pre-survey results showed higher isolation levels, lack of trust of

police and uncertainty about the camp experience. Post-camp, teens felt more aware of community resources and policing, and they were more comfortable around law enforcement, according to the news release. “I was very shy, but when I got to PAL, it really helped me

open up. It really helped me communicate with new people, with the cops, and get to see their work from a different perspective,” one participant said in the news release. SBPAL has more information available at sbpal.org. email: ahanshaw@newspress.com

that,” Mrs. Cantin told the NewsPress Wednesday. “I’m just relieved (now),” the Santa Barbara resident later added. “It’s obviously a tragedy. I’m always going to miss my husband and son, but I’m much more relieved and at peace knowing that his remains can be buried with dignity, and I can tuck him into a casket and bury him next to his dad.” Reflecting on the three and a half years spent searching for her son, Mrs. Cantin said she is awed by the support and compassion of many community members who helped in the effort. Starting in 2018, Mrs. Cantin and a core group of seven individuals led the search effort in its earliest stages, meeting consistently to gather evidence and search for the location of Jack’s remains. The group mapped out where pieces of evidence from the Cantin family’s former home were found in an effort to locate Jack’s body. Throughout the search, Mrs. Cantin held on to hope that her son would eventually be found. She said her “mama fibers” told her that his body was not swept out to the ocean and that he was still out there. “They were walking with me on my grief journey,” Mrs. Cantin said of the group of seven. “They weren’t telling me to move on, they weren’t telling me that he went into the ocean. “Their response was, ‘We’re here until you think we’re done,’” Mrs. Cantin told the News-Press. “It

Chuck inherited his father’s work ethic and began dedicating himself to “hard work” in his youth – whether that be in his series of odd jobs or towards developing his love of baseball. His commitment to hard work turned him in to a stellar athlete and lead him to a career in professional baseball where he pitched against some of the best in the world. It was a short-lived foray into high school football, however, that introduced him to the love of his life Phyllis Marie (neé Goldschmidt). ‘Schmidt & Schmandt’ as they were affectionately known were married on November 3rd, 1951 in Santa Barbara, California and enjoyed an amazing 68 years together until Phyllis’ passing on November 20th, 2017. Together they had two daughters – Sandra Diane and Deirdra Marie.

Chuck’s baseball career was interrupted by a brief stint in the US Army during the Korean War, but his passion for the sport never wavered and he remained an avid fan for the rest of his life. After returning from the army Chuck embarked on what was to become an illustrious career in architecture. His beautiful work still stands and can be enjoyed coast-to-coast with gorgeous homes, restaurants, offices, and developments reaching from Santa Barbara, California to Atlanta, Georgia where Chuck moved with his wife and his firm in 1979. The sheer volume of projects that Chuck worked on can (and do) fill a novel, and each and every one is emblematic of who he was as a person – a driven man of integrity who dedicated his life to building foundations. He built structural foundations that brought life and joy to so many through his designs, and he worked tirelessly until his final days to build foundations for family, friends, co-workers, and more to build their dreams.

Chuck’s long-held ethos is best demonstrated in the title of his book that was written and published with the help of his daughter Sandra in 2021: “Winners In Life Don’t Always Win – They Just Don’t Give Up.” Chuck believed that those who could see the invisible could do the impossible, and no obstacle in his life ever prevented him from doing just that for those he cared for.

Add $60.00 for each additional inch or partial inch after the ﬁrst 1.5”; up to approximately 700 characters per additional inch.

Charles K. Schmandt passed away comfortably at home after an unexpected illness (and, in true Chuck form, a very tough ﬁght) on July 25th, 2021 surrounded by family in Boca Raton, Florida. His passion, wit, integrity, humor, creativity and love are deeply missed by those who survive him: brothers Jake and Rodger, daughters Sandra and Deirdra, and grandchildren Sandy, Tom, Nick, Grace and Kayla. To borrow some words from Chuck’s good friend Paige – if we can imagine heaven as a ferris wheel Chuck is now on top, forever with perfect view of buildings to critique below, endless stars above, and his best girl by his side. A small service will be held for family in Atlanta, GA at a later date. In lieu of ﬂowers he would appreciate a donation to the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America.

Tomatillo This is also referred to as a “husk” tomato and a name that translates to “little tomato.” Unlike its tomato counterpart, tomatillos take on a much different flavor profile when ready to eat, yielding a tangy lemon-like flavor with a subtle underlying sweetness. Tomatillos are rich in dietary fiber and have good amounts of vitamin C, A, and K, as well as niacin, potassium, manganese and magnesium. Excellent in both raw and cooked preparations, they can be enjoyed in salads and pair well with quinoa dishes. Most notably, they’re used as the base of a salsa. This week I prepared a roasted tomatillo and pepper salsa as the Fix of the Week on B2. You can currently find certified organic tomatillos at all weekly Santa Barbara certified farmers’ markets from several local producers. Price averages $3.50 per pound.

Gelato of various flavors will be sold at Via Gelateria.

A taste of Italy

Via Gelateria to open next month in Solvang

At left, flavors will vary from pistachio to roasted coconut at Via Gelateria. At right, Via Gelateria will offer popular flavors such as dark chocolate, vanilla bean and strawberry.

By MARILYN MCMAHON NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Alessio Carnevale, an Italian expat, plans to open Via Gelateria, a gelato shop, with his wife Nicole next month in Solvang.

nown for all things Danish, the town of Solvang is about to get a taste of Italy. That will happen next month when Via Gelateria opens to sell gelato in mouthwatering flavors like pistachio and lemon zest, roasted coconut and white chocolate and honey and lavender, along with popular flavors like vanilla bean, salted caramel, tiramisu, dark chocolate and espresso. The owners are Alessio Carnevale, an Italian expat, and his wife Nicole Carnevale, a graduate of UCSB. “When I was a child, I helped my uncle in his gelato shop in Calabria. That was where I was first introduced to making gelato, and I love those memories,” said Mr. Carnevale. “Gelato, which is Italian for ice cream, is much creamier than traditional ice cream. It’s

ironic because you use less cream and more milk when making gelato vs. making ice cream.” His wife pointed out another difference during a phone interview from Solvang. “Gelato isn’t served in perfectly rounded scoops like ice cream. It is traditionally served free form in cones or cups,” said Mrs. Carnevale, who met her husband in Rome during a year of study abroad in Italy while earning her bachelor’s degree in global studies at UCSB. The couple, who were married in 2010, live in Buellton with their 10-year-old twins, Luca and Chiara, and justturned-1-year-old, Giulia. “The original name of our business was Gemelli, which means twins in Italian, Gelato. But after Giulia was born we changed it to Via Gelateria,” she told the News-Press. “The twins Please see GELATO on B2

Orange bell peppers Peppers are available in almost every color of the rainbow, and I tend to pick up an assortment each week this time of year. This week I found these large orange bell peppers that were crisp, sweet and loaded with flavor. Possessing thick flesh walls, they can be enjoyed both raw and cooked. You can cut them into sections and use them to dip with your favorite hummus. Or you can sauté them and add to an omelet, roast them and prepare a sweet pepper sauce. Or remove the stem caps and seeds, then stuff and bake for some nice stuffed peppers. You can expect to find orange bell peppers at all weekly Santa Barbara certified farmers’ markets from several local farmers. Certified organic is available. Price averages $3 per pound.

Dapple Dandy Pluot This is probably the most highly sought variety of pluots. The skin color of this plum-apricot hybrid varies with different mixtures of variegated red, pink, gold, green and purple. The flesh can range from light pink to red, with sometimes hints of orange. Very sweet and juicy with a nice texture, this low acid variety is an excellent general eating fruit. But this pluot is also nice in a fruit salad or on a fruit plate. You can currently find Dapple Dandy Pluots at all weekly Santa Barbara certified farmers’ markets from several growers. Price averages $3.50 per pound.

Students’ scores improve 74 percent Students in the Camino Scholars program saw their scores improve by 74 percent for the 2020-21 school year, People’s Self-Help Housing reported. Normally Camino Scholars serves more than 600 students at its 11 learning centers throughout Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo counties. During the pandemic, Camino Scholars took a hybrid curriculum approach, helping students in small learning cohorts and in-person instruction tailored to their individual needs. The program’s end-of-year data shows a significant increase in final scores across all subjects, PSHH reported in a news release. At the start of the school year, 35% of the program’s students were reading at their grade level, and 32% of them were two or more grade levels behind in their reading. By the end of the school year, 61% of the students were reading at their grade level or higher, and only 13% were needing more help. Overall, student scores had improved by 74% since the start of the academic year. “Upon school closures due to the pandemic, we kept working with students and took what would have been a bad situation and turned it into something positive resulting in growth for the program and our students despite COVID,” Joanna Dominguez, PSHH director of education, said in a statement. “For nearly two decades, we have provided a wide range of site-based services, addressing the opportunity gap and supporting educational dreams.

his past year, I’ve been making many variations of fresh salsas. I experiment with an array of different types of tomatoes, fresh and dried chilies, onions and citrus. Some of my salsas lend themselves to a more rustic texture while I blend others until they’re velvety-smooth. From mild to spicy, sweet to tangy, and others taking on a pleasing smokiness, the world of salsas is quite diverse. Over the past couple of weeks, the emergence of fresh tomatillos started popping up from our local farmers. Tomatillos are one of my favorite items to use as the base of the salsa. Once one removes the papery husk encased around the tomatillo, it is very similar in appearance to a green tomato, which makes sense seeing that the word tomatillo means “little tomato.” Tomatillos are texturally similar to tomatoes, but biting into a yellowish-green tomatillo is a much more pleasing experience than biting into an unripened tomato. Delivering a subtle underlying sweetness, with notes of tangy lemon flavor, tomatillos are excellent in both raw and cooked preparations. They are most commonly used as the base of a salsa verde (green salsa), enjoyed with chips, over tacos and enchiladas, or as a simmering sauce for chicken and pork preparations. Tomatillos are often used in combination with hot chilies, due to their ability to balance out the spiciness. This week I prepared a roasted tomatillo and pepper salsa verde. I incorporated roasted Anaheim chilies and orange bell pepper instead of my usual choice of jalapeño or serrano chilies for a slightly different flavor profile. I use a little garlic, green onion, cilantro, lemon juice and salt to round it out.

Once made, this salsa verde can be kept refrigerated and remains good to use for a couple of weeks on an array of dishes. Spoon this salsa verde over scrambled eggs, add it to a homemade tostada, serve it over rice and beans, or use it as a simmering sauce.

Sam Edelman is general manager of the Santa Barbara Certified Farmers Market Association and host of “Farm to Table,” which airs live 9 a.m. Thursdays on KZSB AM 1290. ROASTED TOMATILLO AND PEPPER SALSA VERDE 1½ pounds tomatillos, husks discarded, scrubbed. 2 Anaheim chilies 1 orange bell pepper 2 cloves garlic 3 green onions, chopped 1/3 cup fresh cilantro leaves, chopped. Juice from 1 lemon or 2 limes ½ teaspoon salt (add more to taste if needed)

This can be prepared in a preheated oven under the broiler, or on the top rack of the grill. (I use the grill). Put the tomatillos on a piece of foil. Place them on the top rack of the grill at high heat. Place the peppers directly on the grill’s top rack. Close the grill lid and cook for a few minutes. Then flip the tomatillos and rotate the peppers. Continue until the tomatillos have nice blister marks on each side and peppers are well blistered. This takes about 10 minutes total. Remove from heat. Once peppers are cool enough to handle, remove the skins and discard stem, seeds and membrane. Place the tomatillos, peppers and remaining ingredients in a blender. Pulsate a few times. For a really smooth salsa, blend thoroughly. For a more textured salsa, pulse until desired consistency is reached. Yield: Makes about 3 cups of salsa.

are our official taste testers.” Choosing a location for their first brick-and-mortar shop was a top priority for the couple. “We have always liked Solvang. We love the European influence. It’s already a pastry destination for visitors, and it’s a unique place to provide great foot traffic and a perfect fit for a gelato shop,” said Mrs. Carnevale. Via Gelateria is located within the new PARC Place redevelopment project, across from the park. The shop’s open concept will allow customers to watch Mr. Carnevale at work, with two store entry points — one opening to a front patio on Mission Drive and the other opening to the commercial development’s shaded courtyard. Mr. Carnevale began experimenting with crafting his own gelato in the Santa Ynez Valley in 2014. Shortly thereafter, he started to supply S.Y. Kitchen with gelato for the restaurant and bar dessert menu, namely for its popular affogato dessert cocktail. “The affogato dessert cocktail is a scoop of vanilla gelato with a shot of espresso poured over it. It’s a very popular tradition in Italy,” said Mrs. Carnevale. Nella Kitchen & Bar in Los Olivos currently features an eponymous-to-Alessio dessert, Alessio’s Belgian Cookie Gelato, which is served with a chocolate glaze and fresh berries. “Alessio also creates custom desserts for events, both small and large,” said Mrs. Carnevale. “After Via Gelateria opens, he will continue with his catering and events and pop-up appearances.” Asked if she had a favorite gelato flavor, Mrs. Carnevale said, “Definitely pistachio, and our baby loves strawberry sorbet.” email: mmcmahon@newspress. com

Thought for Today

Codeword is a fun game with simple rules, and a great way to test your knowledge of the English language. Every number in the codeword grid is ‘code’ for a letter of the alphabet. Thus, the number 2 may correspond to the letter L, for instance. All puzzles come with a few letters to start. Your first move should be to enter these letters in the puzzle grid. If the letter S is in the box at the bottom of the page underneath the number 2, your first move should be to find all cells numbered 2 in the grid and enter the letter S. Cross the letter S off the list at the bottom of the grid. Remember that at the end you should have a different letter of the alphabet in each of the numbered boxes 1- 26, and a word in English in each of the horizontal and vertical runs on the codeword grid.

COMPLAINTS

Continued from Page A1

In 2019, there were 8,042 complaints, up from 1,161 in 2018. The number of complaints rose dramatically this spring, as flights resumed after a quiet year and Nextdoor posts circulated about the issue. (Nextdoor.com is a website focused on various concerns for neighborhoods.) In May, the Santa Barbara Airport received 563 noise complaints. Of those, 228 complaints were from Hope Ranch residents, or around 40%. Mesa Shores submitted 86 complaints; South of Hollister gathered 65 complaints, and More Mesa residents complained 60 times. The Hope Ranch neighborhood met with the airport in 2019 to discuss noise abatement. Ms. Gabler attended the meeting and estimated that around 50 people were present. “People were very vocal about it, but nothing happened,” she said. But lately she thinks the complaints may be helping. She sees aircrafts flying closer to the ocean but still seeks improvement. She said she believes the worst offender is Southwest Airlines. During the May Airport Commission meeting, Airport Operations Supervisor Kellie Reed said that Southwest has been easy to work with. “We began coordinating with Southwest when they first came out and expressed significant interest,” she said. “They’ve been great partners

and great supporters of seeking their own solutions to do their best to fly that approach.” Southwest’s Boeing 737 aircrafts, though, are some of the largest planes to fly into SBA. Another large carrier, Alaska Airlines, recently implemented its own visual approach avoiding populated neighborhoods. Another limitation facing airports is the Airport Noise and Capacity Act of 1990, which gives power to the FAA over local officials. The law prohibits airports from restricting flight hours, so SBA can’t deny flights residents may think are too early in the morning or late at night. Under the law, airports also can’t deny certain types of aircrafts. If the runway is long enough for the plane, it must be allowed. Santa Barbara Flying Club Secretary Darryl Eaton said pilots are cognizant of communities’ concerns and try to keep disturbances to a minimum. It is the industry’s standard to ease up at a certain point in takeoff to reduce noise. Mr. Eaton said pilots like to adhere to noise-abatement routes. “Pilots are very willing to follow these procedures because we want to keep flying,” he said. “Unfortunately when airports are built, they’re built far away from cities, but cities are built around them.” He likes the sound of aircrafts whirling above because it reminds him of something he enjoys, but he knows not everyone is passionate about flight. email: ahanshaw@newspress.com

Persons who contest the legality or validity of the matter will not be subject to punitive action, such as wage garnishment or seizure of their real or personal property. Unless you respond timely, a default will be entered upon application by Plaintiffs, and Plaintiffs may apply to the Court for the relief demanded in the Complaint. You may seek the advice of an attorney in any matter connected with the complaint or this summons. Such attorney should be consulted promptly so that your pleading may be filed or entered within the time required by this summons. DETAILED SUMMARY OF THE MATTER THAT PLAINTIFFS SEEK TO INVALIDATE: Plaintiffs/Petitioners have filed their First Amended Petition for Writ of Mandamus and Complaint (“Complaint”), which seeks, among other things, a judicial decree, pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure section 860, et seq., determining that the following actions taken by the Santa Barbara County Flood Control and Water Conservation District (“District”), the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors (“Board of Supervisors”), acting in its capacity as the Board of Directors of the District (“Board of Directors”), and the Board of Directors of the District are invalid and unenforceable. On April 20, 2021, the Board of Supervisors, acting as the District’s Board of Directors, adopted Resolution No. 21-73: A Resolution to Approve Water Management Tools Amendment (Amendment 21) to State Water Project Water Supply Contract Subject to Certain Limitations to Maintain Local Water Supply (“Resolution No. 21-73”), which imposes significant conditions, limitations and restrictions on Plaintiffs’/Petitioners’ rights to the State Water Project (“SWP”) pursuant to the 1963 State Water Supply Contract (“SWP Contract”) between the District and the State of California’s Department of Water Resources (“DWR”). Resolution No. 21-73 declares that the District, in some cases, and the Board of Directors, in other cases, may unilaterally condition or reject certain transfers and exchanges of SWP water that otherwise would be permitted by the SWP Contract, as amended by the Water Management Amendment, by conditioning or withholding the District’s execution of any agreements required to implement such transfers and exchanges, notwithstanding Petitioners’/Plaintiffs’ approval of, and agreement to be bound by, any such transfer or exchange. Petitioners/Plaintiffs are the Central Coast Water Authority (“CCWA”), a joint powers agency, and its eight public agency members: the Carpinteria Valley Water District, City of Buellton, City of Guadalupe, City of Santa Barbara, City of Santa Maria, Goleta Water District, Montecito Water District, and Santa Ynez River Water Conservation District, Improvement District No. 1, all of whom provide retail water supply service to customers (ratepayers) within Santa Barbara County. Pursuant to a series of agreements in the 1980s and early 1990s, the District transferred all of its rights and obligations to the SWP Contract to Plaintiffs/Petitioners. Among other things, CCWA administers the SWP Contract and delivers SWP water to its members and other parties who have contracted with CCWA for the delivery of SWP water (collectively, “CCWA Participants”). But because the District remains the party to the SWP Contract, whenever DWR requires the District’s execution of an agreement, such as amendment of the SWP Contract or an agreement for the transfer or exchange of SWP water (“DWR Agreement”), CCWA must obtain the District’s execution of such agreement. The District’s adoption of Resolution No. 21-73 damaged CCWA and the CCWA Participants by disrupting their existing plans and future planning for the implementation of the Water Management Amendment, including but not limited to any proposed transfer or exchange of SWP water pursuant to the Water Management Amendment, which such CCWA Participants had or do determine is in the best interest of their customers (the ratepayers), if applicable. Future damages will accrue as CCWA Participants are deprived of the benefits of the Water Management Amendment as a result of the direct and proximate cause of the conditions, restrictions and limitations imposed by Resolution No. 21-73. The CCWA Participants’ damages include, but are not limited to, increased administrative costs, lost sales of surplus water supplies, higher costs to manage water supplies, and increased costs of water service. Resolution No. 21-73 is invalid and should be declared unenforceable for the following reasons: 1.

The District has no right or authority to impose conditions on, much less withhold its approval of, any DWR Agreement for which CCWA has approved and agreed to be bound, including but not limited to the Water Management Amendment or any other amendment to the SWP Contract.

Resolution No. 21-73 violates CCWA’s rights under the Transfer of Financial Responsibility Agreement and each and all of the 19 Water Supply Retention Agreements, which rights were assigned to CCWA, because the District has no right to impose conditions on amendments to the SWP Contract or CCWA’s transfer or exchange of SWP water pursuant to the SWP Contract.

In enacting Resolution No. 21-73, the District acted in excess of statutory authority under the Santa Barbara County Flood Control and Water Conservation District Act (State Statutes of 1955, Ch. 1057), which prohibits the District from affecting, in any way, the water management authority and obligations of public water suppliers within Santa Barbara County, including CCWA and its members.

Resolution No. 21-73 will deprive the CCWA Participants of their ability to maximize beneﬁcial use of their SWP water supplies and will result in a waste of water and therefore violates Article X, Section 2 of the California Constitution.
