A high-stakes race for an open Riverside County supervisor seat has suddenly gone from simmering to searing.

The waning days of the Nov. 8 race that pits appointed incumbent Chuck Washington against challenger Shellie Milne has been marked by each side releasing stacks of documents aimed at painting their opponents in a negative light.

The opposition research, released by campaign surrogates beginning Oct. 13, mark a toe-totoe political brawl that may rank as the most vitriolic in the county’s fast-growing 3rd District.

One of Washington’s financial backers, Howard Rosenthal, touched off the exchange when he

delivered a packet of materials to the “Valley News” that he claims indicate Milne “lacks the experience and stability” needed for such a crucial elected office.

“Unfortunately, this candidate is a financial wreck with a bad track record and was a nightmare for us in the city of Hemet on the council,” Rosenthal said in a subsequent email.

Rosenthal’s actions prompted Milne’s political consultant to respond in kind, releasing a trove of materials. In an email cover letter, Alex Avetoom characterized Washington as “a pay-to-play politician with countless conflicts of interests and favors done for donors with business before the government.”

Avetoom, director of the Irvinebased Venture Strategic, went on to say that Washington over the years has tapped into “lavish perks and

gifts” that include Las Vegas trips, extra pay, free beer, hot air balloon rides and an admission to an array of ticketed events.

As the exchanges unfolded, both candidates agreed to answer email questions. Milne also did a telephone interview.

Milne said she had initially

Proposition 51 would benefit local school districts Stephanie Lai VALLEYSTAFF@REEDERMEDIA.COM

Proposition 51, otherwise known as the “Kindergarten Through Community College Public Education Facilities Bond Act of 2016” will be on the Nov. 8 ballot. According to Ballotpedia, Proposition 51 is a ballot initiative, meaning it originated as a petition signed by a minimum number of registered voters to propose the statue. As an indirect initiative, the measure was first referred to the legislature by California Resident Thomas W. Hiltachk and will be put to a popular vote.

Proposition 51 will authorize $9 billion in general obligation bonds, bar amendment to existing authority to levy developer fees to fund school facilities, bar amendments to existing State Allocation Board processes for allocating school construction funding and appropriate money from the General Fund to pay off bonds.

Primarily, the $9 billion will be allocated with $3 billion for new construction, $3 billion for modernization of K-12 public school facilities, $1 billion for charter and vocational education facilities and $2 billion for California Community College facilities. The fiscal impact, as determined by the legislative analyst, is an estimated $8.6 billion in interest making Prop 51 $17.6 billion to repay and costing the state approximately $500 million a year for 35 years.

The necessity for the proposition as stated in Section 1 of the official letter to the Initiative Coordinator in the Office of the Attorney General, is due to public education being a state responsibility. The proposition supports making repairs to meet basic health and safety guidelines specifically those for fire and earthquakes.

Moreover, State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Torlakson suggests that Prop 51 will allow for local schools and community colleges “to upgrade vocational education classrooms so students can train for good-paying careers and contribute to California’s growing economy. And, we owe it to our veterans to provide training and help them transition to the workplace.”

Applying to both community colleges and the aforementioned, Prop

51 requires funding to be used solely for school improvement approved by local boards.

According to G. Rick Marshall and Wendy M. Lack of the California Taxpayers Action Network, they claim the measure claims that there are a lack of accountability provisions regardless of the local boards because local measures already in place fund their respective school districts. While the only campaign opposition “California Taxpayers and Educators Opposed to Sprawl and Developer Abuse was terminated July 27. Governor Jerry Brown (D), however, remains a prominent opponent of the measure due to the increased debt it entails. Moreover, there is speculation of accountability in that power would be placed in state control. According to Governor Jerry Brown, The measure fails to guarantee equality of funding for all school districts due to the inequitability of the system. School districts are granted funding based on the access to the application line, not necessity. He further elaborates that the proposition funds may be exploited by construction companies for their profit.

The question remains whether the funding is a necessity or if California should focus on education system reforms before instituting state school bonds. However, many school districts anticipate the measure to help offset the renovations to local schools. Temecula Valley Unified has to date submitted $20 million in funding applications to the state in anticipation of the passage of a state school facilities bond. The application of the measure would reimburse the district for funds already spent on projects.

“Those projects are for the theater at Temecula Valley High School, the modernization of Nicolas Valley Elementary School, the modernization of Margarita Middle School, and the Culinary Arts and Two-Story Classroom Building at Temecula Valley High School,” explained TVUSD Director of Facilites Development Janet Dixon.

“The District would also qualify for matching funds for modernization funding for several additional schools,” Dixon said of the second phase of funding. “The first of these

projects would be constructed at Temecula Elementary School in 2017. The Temecula Elementary School project entails re-roofing of the oldest buildings on the site, safety improvements including fire alarm upgrades, and fencing improvements, replacement of old and inefficient air conditioning units, addition of a permanent stage in the multi-purpose room, asbestos removal, and American with Disabilities Act accessibility compliance improvements.”

Other funds over the next one to two years for qualifying schools would be used for Vail Elementary School, Temecula Middle School, Red Hawk Elementary School, Vail Ranch Middle School, and the Sparkman Alternative Education Center for modernization, given the bond money has not been exceeded past its $3 billion limit.

All the projects listed and future renovations fall under the over $375 million in capital facility needs according to the Facilities Master Plan for the district in 2012.

“The voters of the district approved Measure Y in 2012, which provides $165 million toward meeting those needs,” Dixon said. “Any matching funding obtained from the state through Proposition 51 will allow the district to leverage the Measure Y dollars to complete more projects on that plan.”

According to TVUSD’s website, the introduction of Measure Y was to appropriate $165 million from property taxes to acquire, construct and reconstruct school facilities, and provide for supporting infrastructure at existing school sites throughout the district. The locally approved ballot initiative was budgeted to address the most critical building needs of the district. These needs, identified in the Master Facility Plan and Bond Project List were prioritized through a weighing of numerous factors, including health, safety and security, regulatory and legal compliance issues, technology needs, educational program enhancements, projected enrollment growth, and the district’s mission, vision, and core values.

With local school districts preparing in anticipation for the proposition, the power is in the hands of the voters to appraise the measure’s necessity.

Supervisors approve ordinance to deter synthetic drug use RIVERSIDE – Riverside County supervisors adopted a measure last week intended to crack down on the distribution of illegal synthetic drugs, which Supervisor Chuck Washington described as a “threat and danger to the community.”

In a 5-0 vote without comment, the Board of Supervisors approved Ordinance No. 932, which mandates that individuals selling, supplying or otherwise possessing synthetics face fines and potential misdemeanor charges.

Washington introduced the measure earlier this month in the hope of choking off the supply of hardcore synthetic drugs, which he said were a worsening habit among “high school and college-age individuals, as well as among the homeless, parolees and probationers.”

During an Oct. 4 hearing, board Chairman John Benoit said the popularity of such drugs had become a “huge, horrible problem” and expressed hope that cities throughout the Inland Empire would follow the county’s lead in going after them.

Ordinance No. 932 only applies to unincorporated communities.

Washington first broached the idea of an ordinance regulating illegal synthetic drugs in April. After

months of research and vetting by the Riverside County Office of County Counsel, District Attorney’s Office and Sheriff’s Department, the current measure was drafted.

Washington acknowledged that the State Synthetic Drug Laws and the federal Controlled Substances Act contain provisions that target the manufacturing and distribution of many synthetics, but not on a micro level. That’s where Ordinance No. 932 might prove effective, the supervisor said.

Liquor stores, smoke shops and other outlets that place synthetic “intoxicating chemical substances” on their shelves could be fined and face other penalties in county-led enforcement actions, according to the ordinance.

Similarly, private individuals peddling illicit synthetics may also be penalized under the ordinance.

Washington noted that various combinations of makeshift drugs can induce “extremely violent reactions,” resulting in “hallucinations, psychotic episodes, aggression, suicidal and homicidal ideations, self-mutilation and death.”

According to the ordinance, synthetics are derived from incense, cleaning products, plant foods, skin

treatments and spice.

“Many synthetic drugs are sold as white powders, packaged in vials that resemble cocaine, or dyed green to appear similar to marijuana,” the ordinance states. “Brand names are often similar to street slang for illicit drugs.

These names are always changing but include ‘Eight Ballz,’ ‘Puff,’ ‘Spice,’ ‘Green Buddha,’ ‘Scooby Snax,’ ‘Mr. and Mrs. Marley’ and ‘Cloud 9 Incense.’”

The drugs routinely contain chemical intoxicants like cathinone, methylphenyl, methylene, butylone and their derivatives.

Sheriff’s investigators or code enforcement officers will have to look at the name of the product, how it’s packaged, its chemical content and similar factors to determine whether it’s a prohibited synthetic, according to the ordinance. Labeling certain items with the disclaimer “not safe for human consumption” may not be sufficient to avoid an enforcement action.

Local laws regulating the distribution, sale and possession of synthetic drugs have been enacted in the city of Los Angeles, as well as in Kern, San Bernardino, San Diego and San Luis Obispo counties, according to County Counsel Greg Priamos.

Local SUPERVISORS from page A-1 candidates with such hefty political pedigrees gone toe-to-toe in a local supervisorial contest.

Washington, who was appointed to his post by Gov. Jerry Brown in March 2015, captured 40 percent of the vote after all the election precincts were counted. That was well short of the majority that he needed to avoid a runoff.

Milne finished second by capturing nearly 32 percent of the vote. The other challenger, Randon Lane, finished third and did not make it into the runoff election. Lane was the youngest person on record to be appointed to Murrieta’s Planning Commission in 2003. He remained in that post until 2008. He has served on the Murrieta council since then.

The county’s third supervisorial district is home to more than 450,000 residents. It stretches from Temecula to San Jacinto and Idyllwild to Anza Borrego Desert State Park. It takes in four cities: Temecula, Murrieta, Hemet and San Jacinto; as well as such far-flung unincorporated communities as Murrieta Hot Springs, French Valley, Winchester, Aguanga, Lake Riverside and Anza.

The five county supervisors serve four-year terms and they each earn a base salary of nearly $148,000. They are elected as nonpartisan candidates.

For generations, the 3rd District

was headed by political leaders from Hemet and other population hubs east of the Interstate 15 corridor.

Then one growth boom after another roared through Temecula, Murrieta and French Valley. As the district’s population base shifted, so did its political power.

Milne’s campaign materials describe her as “the proven conservative” who seeks to protect private property rights, adopt responsible spending policies and privatize government services when such steps are practical.

In the email interview, Milne said her record proves that she will “stick up for the taxpayers” of Riverside County. She said change is desperately needed.

“I think we’ll do well to clean house,” she said in a brief telephone interview. “Nothing will change if we keep the same people in play.”

Washington’s materials say he has made a difference during his stint as a supervisor. The materials say he takes action and gets the job done.

His email spotlighted his experience, government track record and his efforts to create jobs and balance budgets.

Washington has carved out a unique political path since he arrived in Murrieta as a young military vet turned airline pilot. Washington served on Murrieta’s council from 1995 to 1999 and was mayor for part of that term.

Washington moved south into the Temecula community of Meadowview, and he was elected to that council in 2003. Washington was still on the council when Gov. Brown tapped him to fill an open seat on the county board.

Washington is the only person to be alternately elected to the Murrieta and Temecula city councils. He is also the first black to ever serve on either council. He broke that same racial barrier on the countywide board.

Lane and Milne surfaced as likely opponents to Washington almost as soon as the ink dried on Brown’s appointment.

Milne is a retail and municipal consultant and her family owns a grading and excavation company.

She parlayed her tea party roots and community activism into a winning bid for a Hemet council seat in November 2012.

The campaign has been costly and split along factional and ideological lines. There has been a scramble for endorsements and donations.

Recently, the race has detoured into deep background searches and character attacks.

Washington’s campaign materials indicate that he has amassed more than 200 endorsements, many of them from key leaders and groups. The materials state that Washington has the backing of three county supervisors, four Temecula councilmen, several

My husband is on Medicare and the ‘Medical Group’ he was with was stringing him along for over a year concerning his health issues. Egregious things kept happening and we were more than frustrated. I suggested we talk to Charise about what we were experiencing. I thought perhaps she would know what we should do. When my husband shared what was going on with Charise she took the matter seriously and moved into action; she even made phone calls to his current medical group to see if we could get some satisfaction. After getting nowhere herself she checked out the groups rating. She discovered their customer care rating was so bad they were in danger of losing their insurance companies that subscribe patients to them. She promptly found my husband a new group with excellent ratings. Come this last January 2016 for the first time someone took my husband’s cardiac Arrhythmia and other issues seriously. He was sent to an excellent Cardiologist who promptly sent him to a Superb Electrophysiologist who found what the problem was.

Surgery was scheduled and using an ablation technique, the Electrophysiologist was able to fix his arrhythmia. My husband is doing much better and I believe her caring ways helped to save his quality and quantity of life.

business associations and public employee unions.

Financial disclosure forms show he has raised nearly $340,000 heading into the homestretch, including nearly $10,000 from three Indian gaming tribes. Much of his financial support has come from developers and public employee unions. At least three wineries have been the site of campaign fundraisers and his donor list includes several vintners.

Washington has loaned his campaign $4,000. A funding committee controlled by a former Temecula council colleague – Jeff Comerchero – has pumped about $15,000 into Washington’s campaign, according to the financial reports.

Records show that Rosenthal, who gave his opposition research to this paper, paid for food valued at $800 that was consumed at a Washington fundraiser. Howard and Margaret Rosenthal are listed as among the Hemet / San Jacinto community leaders who support Washington.

Washington said that fundraiser was held in December 2015 and it targeted Hemet-area business leaders.

Rosenthal is also one of four local supporters who are quoted on Washington’s campaign website.

Washington said Rosenthal has become a friend in recent years. They do not socialize, but talk occasionally about local issues, Washington said in his email.

Milne’s campaign website lists a just handful of endorsements, but some of them are from key office holders or are leaders of political groups. They include U.S. Rep. Ken Calvert, state Assemblywoman Melissa Melendez and state Senator Mike Morrell.

Milne has also won the endorsement of Ron Bradley, who has attained a guru-like status among local city managers, councils and business leaders.

Bradley is perhaps best known in this area as Temecula’s city manager from 1994 to 1998 and as a chairman of its chamber of commerce. He previously managed the cities of La Mesa and Oceanside.

He served as an interim city manager in Laguna Hills, and held that same post in Murrieta in 2007 and Hemet for a period that spanned portions of 2012-13. Bradley is a candidate in the Temecula council race that culminates Nov. 8.

Milne has raised more than $305,000 over the bulk of the campaign. At least $60,000 has come from one or more entities associated with Wayne Minor, who is affiliated with a network of business and agricultural interests, records show.

Another $20,000 of Milne’s funds came from the Hemet-based Physicians for Healthy Hospitals. Two other groups – the Victor Valley Global Medical Center and the Western Electrical Contractors Association political action committee – each donated $10,000.

The release of background information by Rosenthal added a new wrinkle to the race. In many political races, behind-the-scenes supporters seek to share information anonymously with the news media.

In this instance, the releases amount to full-throated public barrages by both sides.

The half-inch thick file that Rosenthal dropped off at the paper consists of a piecemeal and possibly selective smattering of court documents that could likely be combed from the public record.

The stack includes documents dating from about 1996 to 2004 that centers on Milne’s past divorce case.

A four-page civil complaint filed against Milne by a Phoenix attorney in May 1996 is identified as a case of “Embezzlement, Conversion and

Breach of Contract.” No information was given as to how that case – which centered on work that Milne did for a doll shop – was resolved.

The other Rosenthal materials include a December 2002 small claims case pertaining to a disputed firewood purchase, a December 2000 Superior Court case stemming from an El Cajon automobile accident, a March 2004 personal injury case and a May 2010 speeding ticket that, before its eventual disposition, included Milne’s failure to appear at a court hearing.

In response, Milne said the cases were inconsequential and in some instances, frivolous. Given Washington’s track record, she said the documents amount to an ill-advised effort to “rifle through” her past.

“In reality, everything I have seen from Chuck seeks to tell a polar opposite story than what is true,” she said in her email reply.

Her consultant, Avetoom, emailed a thinner stack of materials to the paper.

One set focuses on a string of changes in party affiliation before Washington’s appointment by Brown, a Democrat. That batch centers on a tracking that shows how Washington since 2001 shifted back and forth from being an independent to a decline to state status to Republican and, finally, to Democrat.

Avetoom also provided Washington campaign financial reports that he says is intended to mislead voters about Washington’s current party affiliation.

Washington called that “nonsense” and noted that his forms reveal support from Republican and Democratic backers.

Avetoom provided a 2005 Superior Court claim in which a woman who purchased a car from Washington lodged a fraud claim over the vehicle’s sports package and its mileage. An accompanying record showed that the two sides reached an agreement after Washington offered to pay the woman $350. Avetoom contended the materials showed Washington was “sued for fraud like a shady used car salesman.”

Washington countered that the dispute was casually settled and he asserted that Milne’s court cases were far more onerous.

Other Avetoom documents include listings extrapolated from public records that he said indicates many of Washington’s campaign donors can be traced to companies or individuals he has helped.

Some documents also list ticketed events, trips or for-fee activities that Washington has attended or participated in that date back to 2009. Other documents detail pay he has received since 2012 from public agencies that he has belonged to as part of his service on a council or the county board.

Those agencies include the Western Riverside Council of Governments, the county Local Agency Formation and the Riverside Transit Agency.

Avetoom concludes that those “pay and perks” received by Washington had a total value from $21,000 to $37,000.

Washington provided a point-bypoint rejection of those contentions.

He said the trips he took netted benefits to his constituents. He said he has paid for outings himself. He said many public and private events offer cities and agencies tickets in hopes of attracting key public officials to shows, venues or gatherings.

Washington said both he and Milne have drawn donations from political supporters. He was critical of Milne’s public service and said he is supported by people who like the work he has done and want him to continue in office.

The San Jacinto City Council has three council seats open this election year with five qualified candidates running. The candidates are incumbents, Andrew Kotyuk and Crystal Ruiz, and challengers, Ken Kidby, Russ Utz and James Pangrazzi.

The voters will have an opportunity to vote for their preferred candidates in the upcoming Nov. 8 election.

Andrew Kotyuk is the current mayor of San Jacinto. He is a Navy veteran. The local businessman was born and raised in San Jacinto. He said he is dedicated to finding solutions to the city’s current problems without raising taxes.

He called attention to his and the city’s success in opening up closed parks during the recession, lowering utility and maintenance costs, reopening Fire Station No. 78 with a renegotiated fire contract and finding new city revenues through grants and other sources.

Kotyuk said the city is growing, and he is “committed and prepared to drive increases in public safety, quality of life and amenities as developments are negotiated and built.”

Crystal Ruiz said she came to the residents embracing a new beginning for the city of San Jacinto and believed they could balance the budget without spending its reserves. She said she is “committed to continuing our fight for economic stability, to bringing jobs to San Jacinto and to working for you.”

She serves as a commissioner on

the Southern California Association of Governments and the Riverside Conservation Authority. Ruiz is a strong advocate for a number of community organizations including Boxing for Christ and Summer Music at the Mansion.

She said she follows the concept that this country was founded on the idea that America was the land of opportunity and that if we worked hard anything could be possible. “That dream is not dead. It just takes work to get it,” Ruiz said.

Russ Utz has operated a successful business in the city for the past 16 years and believes he can bring a fresh perspective to the city by streamlining its operations. He said the city still has a serious money problem, and Utz has some creative solutions to the city’s public safety issues. He said code enforcement has a big problem with being inconsistent.

Utz has always been active in city affairs serving as a member of the City Planning Commission and San Jacinto Unified School District Measure Y Oversight Committee co-chair among other volunteer groups.

He said he can make things better in the city and does not need another job or income. Utz adds that he is ready to jump into the seat and do what needs to be done to fund necessary infrastructure improvements creatively.

Ken Kidby is a veteran who served for 10 years as a U.S. Marine and for 17 years in the National Guard. He has owned a home and a business in the city with his family since 2008.

He said serving the country has been his pride and soul throughout

his life, and as a San Jacinto resident, he is dedicated “to serve you and your city with the same pride and care.”

Kidby is a member of the San Jacinto Lions Club, a member of the San Jacinto Chamber of Commerce and the American Business Women’s Association. He works with the association to support the women in business in the city.

He sees public safety as one of his focuses and is currently leading the HOPE Collaborative, Riverside County Anti-Human Trafficking Task Force, and Million Kids effort to improve safety in San Jacinto.

James Pangrazzi has been a critic for over five years of the San Jacinto City Council using up most of the city’s $18 million reserve during the recession and sees a need for change in the city council.

Pangrazzi said the council has been incompetent in making proper legal decisions, including when the council cut monthly council meetings from twice a month to once a month. He said as a city councilman he promises integrity, accountability and responsibility.

Pangrazzi said he will make sure that city parks are inspected not only for their physically unsafe defects but for the rats and snakes that infest them. He said he will make sure the city does not create any more “slush” funds. Pangrazzi said he will make sure the public is never shut out of council meetings and that the public has more time for comments.

Candidate statements are compiled from written questionnaires, public forums, social media and candidate campaign information.

Hemet City Council seeks clarification of community event licensing fees proposal Tony Ault TAULT@REEDERMEDIA.COM

The Hemet City Council sent back a recommendation to charge all civic and nonprofit organizations a $40 licensing fee per community event on city property or $1,000 per year for all events to city staff for clarification before it is passed.

Hemet Mayor Pro Tem Paul Ravers after hearing of the proposal, indicated such fees could hinder the efforts of some churches and other nonprofits to hold a fundraising event for badly needed charities.

The remainder of council agreed, saying the licensing fees proposal should be clarified and possibly exempt certain fundraising events.

The proposed ordinance originally presented by staff said that city property and any Hemet Housing Authority property subject to the fees would include “parking lots, rights of way, public facilities, parcels and similar real property.”

A community event “shall mean a community or charitable event that is open to the public, for either free admission or admission based

on a fee and no matter whether goods or entertainment are sold at the event. The following events shall be considered ‘community events:’ any festival, farmers market, recreation or spectator events, carnivals and circuses, merry-gorounds, amusement for advertising events, live entertainment or similar events.”

It suggested the $40 singular event license or the $1,000 per year license are “reasonable in light of city’s actual costs of providing service of issuing community event on city property licenses,” noting that it takes city staff to take the application, enter it into the city database, verify that all safety and traffic laws; confirm that any vendors or services at the event are in compliance with the city’s regulations, validate whether the community event meets the city’s insurance requirements.”

The staff indicated they would return to the council later to present any clarifications or modifications of the proposed license fee.

The council also discussed the establishment of an “Other PostEmployment Benefits (OPED)

Trust and establishing a funding policy.” The trust would be administered by Public Agency Retirement Services (PARS) and the U.S. Bank.”

The trust would essentially be an investment the city would make to help pay for new employees’ retirements but would not affect any current or former employees’ retirement program. The city proposed they place $750,000 into the initial OPED and then $250,000 per year thereafter hopefully building the trust for and reduce the city’s unfunded liabilities.

The investment portfolio would be recommended through High Mark Capital Management and administered by the city manager.

The council had five options for investments as presented by High Mark representatives. The city treasurer recommended the council balanced/moderate option with (fixed income/equity) investments between bonds and other funds, mostly mutual funds.

High Mark representatives said the PARS options can be changed by the council depending on changing market conditions.

California Proposition 64, the California Marijuana Legalization Initiative, will go before voters Nov. 8 Kim Harris VALLEYEDITOR@REEDERMEDIA.COM

According to Ballotpedia.com, a yes vote on Prop 64 would legalize the recreational use of marijuana for those aged 21 years or older and establish certain sales and cultivation taxes. A no vote would oppose the legalization of recreational marijuana.

While the State of California legalized medical marijuana, the possession or use of marijuana for recreational and medical purposes is currently illegal under federal law.

Proposition 64 would make recreational marijuana legal in California state law.

Ballotpedia reports that “Proposition 64 would allow adults aged 21 years or older to possess and use marijuana for recreational purposes.

The measure would create two new taxes, one levied on cultivation and the other on retail price. Revenue from the taxes would be spent on drug research, treatment and enforcement, health and safety grants addressing marijuana, youth programs and preventing environmental damage resulting from illegal marijuana production.”

Should the measure pass, marijuana would be taxed at the rate of $9.25 per ounce for flowers and $2.75

per ounce for leaves, with exceptions for certain medical marijuana sales and cultivation. A second 15 percent tax on the retail price of marijuana would also be enacted. Taxes would be adjusted for inflation starting in 2020.

Ballotpedia is reporting that revenue from the two taxes would be deposited in a new California Marijuana Tax Fund. “First, the revenue would be used to cover costs of administrating and enforcing the measure. Next, it would be distributed to drug research, treatment and enforcement.”

Drug research, treatment and enforcement includes “grants to local health departments and communitybased nonprofits supporting “job placement, mental health treatment, substance use disorder treatment, system navigation services, legal services to address barriers to reentry, and linkages to medical care for communities disproportionately affected by past federal and state drug policies.” As well as $2 million per year to the UC San Diego Center for Medical Cannabis Research to study medical marijuana, $10 million per year for 11 years for public California universities to research and evaluate the implementation and impact of Proposition 64, and various youth

programs among others.

According to the legislation, smoking would be permitted in a private home or at a business licensed for on-site marijuana consumption.

Smoking would remain illegal while driving a vehicle, anywhere smoking tobacco is prohibited and in all public places. Up to 28.5 grams of marijuana and 8 grams of concentrated marijuana would be legal to possess.

However, possession on the grounds of a school, day care center, or youth center while children are present would remain illegal. An individual would be permitted to grow up to six plants within a private home, as long as the area is locked and not visible from a public place.

To sell marijuana for recreational use, businesses would need to acquire a state license. Local governments could also require them to obtain a local license. Businesses would not be authorized to sell within 600 feet of a school, day care center or youth center.

Ballotpedia reports that “The initiative was also designed to prevent licenses for large-scale marijuana businesses for five years in order to prevent ‘unlawful monopoly power.’”

Bureau of Medical Cannabis Regulation would regulate and license

marijuana businesses after being renamed the Bureau of Marijuana Control. It would be responsible for regulating and licensing marijuana businesses. Counties and municipalities would be empowered to restrict where marijuana businesses could be located. Local governments could also completely ban the sale of marijuana from their jurisdictions. Many local cities, including Murrieta, Menifee and San Jacinto have already passed or begun the process to ban the sale of recreational marijuana.

University of the Pacific researchers published an analysis Oct. 17, estimating the economic impact of legal marijuana on the Sacramento area. According to the study, the measure would create between 2,180 and 26,439 jobs, depending on how local government regulates marijuana and consumer demand,” Ballotpedia reports.

As of last week, a SurveyUSA poll showed support at 51 percent and opposition at 40 percent, the lowest support recorded for Prop. 64 this year.

Supporters for Prop 64 include Lt. Governor Gavin Newsom, the California Democratic Party and the California Medical Association.

Proponents argue that Prop 64 has specific safeguards that would protect children while allowing responsible

adult use of marijuana. Supporters also say it would incorporate best practices from other states that already legalized marijuana and that Prop 64 would generate tax revenue and decrease law enforcement costs, providing funding for things like afterschool programs, drug prevention education and drug/alcohol addiction treatment, law enforcement training and research on impaired driving, and other programs. Supporters claim Prop 64 would decrease black market and drug cartel activity.

Opponents include Senator Joel Anderson, Assemblywoman Melissa Melendez and the California Peace Officers Association.

Opponents argue that Prop 64 would result in more highway fatalities and more impaired driving, allow marijuana growing near schools and parks, and would erode local control, would increase black market and drug cartel activity, would allow marijuana smoking advertisements to be aired, would hurt underprivileged neighborhoods and would put small marijuana farmers in northern California out of business.

If Proposition 64 is approved, individuals serving sentences for activities made legal under the measure would be eligible for resentencing.

Murrieta Police Department’s DARE program teaches dangers of drugs to students MURRIETA – Since 1996, the Murrieta Police Department has taught the DARE curriculum to fifth graders in our local elementary schools. The Drug Abuse Resistance Education Program’s mission of teaching students good decision making skills to help them lead safe and healthy lives is consistent with the goals and mission of the Murrieta Police Department. Over the last 20 years, countless Murrieta students

have gained a greater understanding of the consequences that result from the choices they make as juveniles.

Ten local MVUSD Elementary Schools, as well as Menifee Unified’s Oak Meadows Elementary have Murrieta Police Officers assigned as DARE Instructors. Each year, fifth grade students from those 11 schools receive a 10-week DARE program, culminating in a DARE graduation and Mulligan’s DARE Night.

The program is paid for with funds from within the police department budget. In addition to Police Department funds, the end of year Mulligan’s night sends 25 percent of the proceeds back to the Police budget for the next year’s program.

The Murrieta Police Department believes the youth in our community is the greatest asset we have. Teaching and mentoring Murrieta’s youth over the last 20 years through the DARE

curriculum is something the police department is very proud of.

During the month of October 2016, DARE America will be in our community soliciting donations for their organization. They will be set up in front of retail establishments. Although the Murrieta Police Department supports DARE America’s mission, we also want the community to know that Murrieta PD’s DARE Program is fully funded within the city budget. DARE

America does not fund the Murrieta PD / MVUSD DARE Program.

DARE Graduation this year is set for May of 2017. Graduation will be held at each school site. Mulligan’s DARE Night will be held the same week. Contact your elementary school principal and/or Sergeant David Baca for more information on the program.

Sergeant Baca can be reached at (951) 461-6308.

mission to make of Hemet safe,” she said.

As a candidate, she says “Hemet cannot continue on a trajectory that fails to retain quality residents, businesses and staff. For a safer and prosperous Hemet, elect a qualified person to make tough long-range choices.”

Her priorities are to “fully staff and support public safety departments.

Improve relations with community economic development strategies for quality industry/retail. Streamline processes for operations efficiency.

Foster communication among city, citizens and business and set policy

with logic and intergrity.”

Chuck Moore arrived in Hemet in 2011 with his wife of 43 years.

They have two grown sons. He is a fiscal conservative with a degree in Business Administration and is a proud military veteran. He says he is determined to “put Hemet back on its feet. I do not subscribe to ‘political correctness.’ I say what I mean and mean what I say” “The City of Hemet has a leadership problem—not a revenue problem. New taxes are not the answer.

When the city council keeps increasing the salaries of employees without requiring results it’s no wonder that

they find themselves nearly broke and demanding more money from our already overburdened citizens.

We pay enough taxes.”

He says “If the City of Hemet is to survive and prosper, we must elect new leaders with a fresh business prospective who will place the interest of its citizens first, not those of the city employees. I am committed to making Hemet the wonderful community that my wife and I chose over many others.”

he believes in “Putting Hemet First.”

Perciful, who has lived in Hemet for the past 16 years with his family, has been endorsed by the Southwest Riverside County Association of Realtors where he served as the local president in 2017.

As a city planning commissioner he knows the needs of developers and of the city who wants to make Hemet more “business friendly.”

He says he will put his proven leadership to work to bring more business and commerce to the city and remain active in the community.

Cameron Scott Broderick is a security Professional and has lived in the Hemet/San Jacinto Valley all of his life. He believes there are other means of solving the city’s budget problems than raising taxes.

As a security professional he is well aware of the crime and homeless issue facing the city and says he will be able to help solve those issues.

He says he will make sure the most critical issues will be prioritized in the budgets.

He thinks the city pays too high of salaries to its public employees and thinks more of them than they do of the average Hemet citizens.

District 1 candidates City Councilman Robert Youssef representing District 1 completes his four year term this year and has decided not to run again. The candidates running for his soon to be vacated council seat are Karlee Meyer and Chuck Moore.

Karlee Meyer says she is a lifetime resident of Hemet, grew up in District 1, married for 22 years and has four children whom she has homeschooled. “From my experience defending my children and my home from an intruder grew a

as a business attorney in temecula i have completed my analysis and this is why yes on s is so important: The 1% sales tax will be dedicated directly to the City of Temecula, to help fund our fire, police and paramedics departments and to help ensure that we have continuation of important programs, such as our local parks, senior center, children’s activities, the community theater and other community events.

Yes on s is extremely important as the City of Temecula plans five years in advance and these funds will help manage the budget for the future, which will keep our City strong. Most of the current sales tax goes to the County and state, however, by law every penny collected under s will be used for our local services and the 1% will stay in Temecula.

Vote Yes on s to keep our taxpayer dollars LOCAL, this gives taxpayer’s LOCAL control. Vote Yes on s to keep our neighborhoods and schools safe, and to maintain the quality of life that makes Temecula a great place to live, work and do business.

District 3 candidates There are four candidates for Hemet’s District 3. They include Patty Axelrod, Bryan Hash, Cameron Scott Boderick and Michael Perciful.

The seat for District 3 opens without an incumbent will fill the former at large seat occupied by Shellie Milne who lives in eastern Hemet now considered District 1. Milne is giving up her seat to run for 3rd District Supervisor of Riverside County.

Patty Axelrod is a Hemet resident and ran for the city council in 2014 against Paul Raver, current councilmember. She is a local businesswoman.

She has long supported local businesses and would like to see the city provide better service to low income residents and the homeless in the community. She has helped served meals at Valley Restart and is active in her church.

She has been an advocate to keep the Hemet Fire Department local and in the past said she believed Riverside County Fire that would like to see a contract with the city in the future are “mercenaries” wanting more and more money. She has felt that the council doesn’t always listen to its constituents and would better like to serve those in her district.

Bryan Hash has lived in Valley since 2009 with his family and sees himself as a regular working person who believes Hemet is a great city to live in. He said “I got involved in politics because of my Christian faith.”

He cited his experience of feeding the needy and homeless through the Community Pantry brought him to believe “the greatest issues facing Hemet are crime, homelessness and unemployment.”

He said he favors Measure U and would seek to look at housing as the first option for the chronically homeless and “by bringing in more services to help those get off the streets, which will also create jobs along with it.” He sees a great opportunity for Hemet with the rerouting of Highway 79 that will bring more commerce and jobs to the area.

Michael Perciful a local business owner the vice chair of the Hemet Planning Commission, a Realtor and a retired reserve Police Officer, said

District 4 candidates Bonnie Wright is the incumbent for what is now District 4 and is currently the Mayor of the council.

She has lived in the valley for 23 years and has owned a successful optical business for over 17 years.

She has been the recipient of the Chamber of Commerce “Citizen of the Year” award in the past and is active in the Hemet Kiwanis Club.

She sees the current issues for the city are increased crime, lack of jobs, lack of revenue and the homeless.

She said solutions are “improving public safety service levels,” “reducing crime by re-implementing the Safety Task Forces” and passing Measure U.” Paul Valenzuela is a business executive and an ex-Marine who believe that “a new direction is needed in Hemet.”

He believes that the high-ranking city employees are overpaid and that someone, like himself, on the council needs to make the hard decisions to turn the city around. He believes the city’s taxpayers are not getting the proper value for the money they pay in taxes and working with the county in the public service arena will provide much better police, fire and medical service.

He sees jobs for the community and taking back the city from the unproductive homeless is the best answer to its problems.

National Endowment grant will help to build Artist Village in Lake Elsinore Art Barela VALLEYSTAFF@REEDERMEEDIA.COM

Lake Elsinore has long been a haven for the arts and an inspiration for artists from well beyond the creative outreach of the Temecula Valley. An awe-inspiring nonprofit organization has blossomed in the valley and is doing great work on behalf of the artistic legacy that is Lake Elsinore.

Studio395 may be a modest group of dedicated volunteer artists and art enthusiasts from the community, but it has also grown into a nationally recognized nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting the arts in all their forms.

Earlier this year, Studio395 was recognized for their hard work on behalf of the Lake Elsinore artist community with a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. The 2016 “Our Town Grant” previously bestowed upon much larger and more recognizable arts programs represented by the cities of Los Angeles, San Francisco and Berkeley. This small Lake Elsinore organization was awarded the honor in support of their work on the ArtistDetour, an ambitious arts and education project currently underway with the support and assistance of City of Lake Elsinore.

Studio395, working in collaboration with a growing number of volunteer groups from local city government, the business community, and numerous private citizens and supporters of the arts, is using its national endowment grant of $25,000 as a launching pad for its ArtistDetour.

The ArtistDetour, is a project supported by the City of Lake Elsinore will eventually convert an underdeveloped vacant lot space on the west end of historic Main Street into what the organization plans will be a vibrant and flourishing Artist Village. The ArtistDetour will assist local artists, help

to attract increased community interest in the arts and bring more tourist’s dollars into a growing downtown community.

Studio395 President, Rebecca Esquibel, describes the project as, “A coming together of good people who simply love the arts and are inspired by the prospect of a more beautiful and culturally enriched home community.”

Grace Sandlin, who serves as the organization’s treasurer and one of its most dedicated supporters, is excited about the progress.

“We really appreciates all the support the city is providing us on this project,” Sandlin said. “It’s taking some real ‘out-of-the-box’ thinking on the part of everyone involved.”

In addition to the countless volunteer hours being devoted to the project, Studio395 said they want to thank Morch Engineering and the Lake Elsinore Rotary Club for working so hard on behalf of its vision.

The organization believes that it is on schedule to hit the early spring target opening in March 2017.

There are many challenges associated with converting an unused vacant lot into a thriving Artist Village, but with the continued support of the community, Studio395 is working to make the vision a reality, officials said.

The organization is still soliciting the help of artists and art teachers (both visual and performing arts), as well as volunteers and donations to help keep the project moving. Anyone interested in learning more about Studio395, supporting art and culture projects in the Lake Elsinore community, or wishing to volunteer their skills, talents and/or resources to the ArtistDetour project can contact Rebecca Esquibel or Grace Sandlin at Studio395 by calling (951) 506-3606 or emailing info@ studio395.org.

Lake Elsinore breaks ground on Phase 2 of Serenity Park Art Barela VALLEYSTAFF@REEDERMEDIA.COM

Groundbreaking for Phase 2 of the Lake Elsinore Serenity Park expansion was held this past Thursday at the south end of the long linear grounds nearest the corner of Palomar and Corydon in Lake Elsinore. The park expansion, which is scheduled for completion by the spring of 2017, will service the local area communities of Lake Elsinore and Wildomar, as well as the county areas that run along the foothills on the southwest side of the lake.

Mayor Brian Tisdale was accompanied at the groundbreaking ceremony by city council members Bob Magee, Natasha Johnson, Steve Manos and Daryl Hickman, and Assistant City Manager, Jason Simpson. Also in attendance were city planning and community services staff members, as well representatives from the Lake Elsinore Valley Chamber of Commerce, and several members of the local community.

The Phase 2 expansion plans have been in the works for over a year and are set to include a new BMX track, much needed parking space to accommodate visitors to the park, shade structures, a new dog park that will provide for both large and small dogs, new

solar lighting and a water fountain feature. The plans also include resurfacing of the existing basketball courts.

Tisdale expressed a sense of pride in how hard the current city council and their staff have all worked together to accomplish set goals for this growing community.

“This park is a great example of how this city council is committed to not settling for just leaving good plans and good ideas on the table,” Tisdale said.

HS Football: Week Nine showdowns brew up scary action as October ends

A.J. Larini (23) leads a powerful stop for Murrieta Valley by taking down Great Oak’s Jeremiah Ruger in Week Nine action.

Heading in to the final week of the regular season most of the local high school football teams are either readying themselves for the playoffs, striving to get to the posts season with one last mad dash effort, or are looking to be a spoiler for a potential playoff hunter. Last week’s Week Nine showdowns did prove one thing and that is that the top teams in the Southwestern, Sunbelt and South Valley Leagues have giant targets on their backs.

Murrieta Valley (7-2, 4-0), who have the biggest target ever, took out Great Oak (5-4, 3-1) in Week Nine, not only under the stadium lights, but also the lights of the Fox Sports West TV cameras, ousting the Wolfpack from their tie for first place with the Nighthawks. Now the league leading team from Murrieta Valley has one last team to get past in order to claim their first ever Southwestern League Championship. The Nighthawks would be stripping it away from the Vista Murrieta Broncos who have owned it since Chaparral won it all in 2008.

The Sunbelt League still houses the two remaining undefeated teams in the area, Paloma Valley and Heritage, who combined for over 100 points in Week Nine, allowing just one score each from their opponents. At 9-0 overall now, the two teams will go head-to-head to finish off the season when they play each other Friday, Nov. 4.

In the South Valley League Rancho Christian (7-2, 4-0) is still the front runner, but the Rough Riders from California Military Institute (6-3, 3-1) could foil the Eagles league title run this week with a well played defensive game. If that were the case there

would be a three-way tie for first place as long as Calvary Murrieta (7-2, 3-1) gets past Santa Rosa (5-4, 2-2).

Linfield (3-5-1, 2-2) of the Ambassador League fell two spots in the standings after losing to Notre Dame last week and are sitting in fourth place, but could hang in for the post season with a win this week over Arrowhead Christian.

Hamilton (4-5, 2-1) of the Arrowhead League pulled out a one point win in Week Nine and moved into second place in the standings.

Menifee Chamber supports Measure DD MENIFEE – A safe city is good for business – so are good roads, clean communities and a well-run government. Recognizing the need for a strong infrastructure, efficient government and a safe community, the Menifee Valley Chamber of Commerce board of directors voted Oct. 10, to endorse Measure DD, the city’s proposed one-penny per dollar sales tax increase.

“This small sales tax increase will keep our city financially healthy during a time of skyrocketing costs for infrastructure and public safety,” said Karen Nolan, chairwoman of the Menifee Valley Chamber of Commerce.

Menifee already has an efficient government with a small staff and retirement benefit costs far lower than comparable cities and government agencies. But even with a small staff, the City of Menifee has been hit by skyrocketing costs for public safety and the loss of $4.5 million a year in revenue from vehicle license fees promised by the State, but vetoed by Gov. Brown.

Because the state denied paying the fees, the city estimates it will have lost $49 million in expected revenue over the next five years. The loss of vehicle license fees teaches us that we cannot rely on the State to provide additional

sources of revenue. We have to rely on ourselves to pay for new infrastructure, police and fire services.

Chambers of Commerce typically oppose measures that would raise sales tax, but Measure DD is the exception.

The city is faced with extraordinary circumstances, including: • A growing need for more streets, bridges, overpasses and storm drains; • Skyrocketing costs to maintain an acceptable level of police and fire services; • The loss of more than $4.5 million a year in revenue from vehicle license fees due us from the state.

With these circumstances in mind, the benefit of a safe, clean, well-run city outweighs an increase in sales tax that is not only paid by residents but by visitors to the city. If Measure DD does not pass, the Chamber anticipates the city will raise the fees it imposes on businesses. Measure DD better meets the city’s revenue needs and prevents a fee hike, keeping jobs and businesses in town.

The one-penny-per-dollar sales tax increase keeps police on the street and our city safe. In a city that has the State’s busiest fire station – Fire Station 7 in Sun City – Measure DD keeps

response times low and the quality of service high. It provides a way to pay for traffic solutions that keep residents moving and customers better able to reach our businesses.

Measure DD provides value to our community and that’s good for our businesses and our residents. The Menifee Valley Chamber of Commerce urges the City’s business community and its residents to vote Yes on Measure DD.

anticipated to generate $10 million per year to address urgent public safety needs.

The Chamber Board conducted an extensive level of due diligence before endorsing Measure U. They met with and received presentations from individuals representing organizations in opposition and in favor of the measure. They also met with Hemet Police and Fire Chiefs, as well as the City Manager to obtain specific information regarding public safety trends, current staffing levels and potential usage of the sales tax proceeds.

Public safety is a high priority for the business community. In recent conversations with our members they have consistently cited concerns over the impact of the increasing level of crime to their businesses. The FBI Uniform Crime report shows that violent crimes have increased by 51 percent and overall crime increased

by 21 percent since 2010 in the City of Hemet. Beyond the statistics, the business community feels the impact of increased crime on a daily basis.

Businesses experience the hard dollar expense of vandalism, shoplifting, and the potential increased cost of insurance premiums, all of which have a direct negative effect on their bottom line. In addition to the hard costs cited, retailers also indicate they are impacted by shoppers choosing to leave Hemet to make their purchases in other communities or on the internet due to concerns over their safety. These same negative factors are also considered by prospective businesses that might contemplate opening new business locations in Hemet as well.

The HSJVC Board reviewed the Hemet Community Safety and Police Staffing plan proposed if Measure U is approved by voters. They also considered that August 23, 2016,

the Hemet City Council approved a resolution stating its intent to expend the proceeds of Measure U for the enhancement of public safety services. Proceeds of the sales tax would enable the City of Hemet to: Add up to an estimated 39 new police officers to the Hemet force Fund anti-drug, gang teams and special enforcement units focused on crime suppression Add paramedics to all Hemet Fire Stations to improve emergency lifesaving response Measure U, if approved, includes accountability provisions including annual independent audits and a Citizen’s Oversight committee. The language on the November 2016 ballot also specifies that the sales tax increase is for a period of 10 years.

The Chamber Board members also considered that other Riverside County cities either currently have increased their sales tax or have

placed a measure on the ballot for the upcoming election at least in part to address public safety matters as well. Some of those cities include Temecula, Menifee and Riverside.

While the overwhelming majority of business people and residents feel, see or hear the effect of increased crime almost daily, opponents of Measure U have not communicated a viable solution to address this disturbing trend. In fact many have chosen to just sling mud. It should be noted that in cities similar in size to Hemet, the national average is 1.7 police officers per thousand residents. Hemet’s average is only 0.7 officers per thousand or 60% less. More officers are need to protect our businesses, school children, shoppers, tourists, senior citizens and local residents. The Hemet San Jacinto Valley Chamber of Commerce endorses the measure and encourages you to vote YES on Measure U.

Washington clear choice for 3rd District Dear Editor, I support Chuck Washington for 3rd District County Supervisor. The County of Riverside has a population of about 2.3 million people. It is one of the largest Counties in the United States. There are more people in Riverside County than in 16 other States.

The County budget for 2016-17 will exceed $5 billion – that is FIVE BILLION DOLLARS. This is a serious job and requires a certain amount

of savvy and life experience. Since taking office, Mr. Washington has proven himself up to the job. His 10 years representing Murrieta and Temecula as well as distinguished career as a Navy and Delta Airlines pilot are the types of experience that provides comfort to voters for someone seeking a position of such authority and responsibility.

By comparison, his opponent, Ms. Milne has a documented embezzle-

TVUSD School Board needs to monitor and self-regulate election procedures Dear Editor, When observing the TVUSD School Board as it sprinted toward the change and sudden implementation of a By-trustee District Voting system, a classic quote from a framer of the United States Constitution comes to mind. In Federalist Paper # 51, James Madison wrote, “Ambition must be made to counteract ambition.”

This is the challenge the soon to be newly composed TVUSD board faces. Yet there is no built -in system of checks and balances in terms of developing Election bylaws; that custody belongs to the board itself with legal precedent from California Education Code and guidance from its’ parent group the California School Boards Association.

In the last several months there

have been multiple concerns regarding incumbent board members, up for potential 2016 re-election, voting themselves on the rules and regulations surrounding this November election.

On Feb. 16, 2016, both Allen Pulsipher and Kristi-Rutz Robbins voted to adopt “Scenario 1” developed by a TVUSD consultant. In effect, they voted on the geographical composi-

tion of their district for the November election and beyond. Pulsipher decided not to seek a third term in his new District 1 area, yet Rutz-Robbins did in District 5. It could be argued that in voting for her own boundaries she “gerrymandered” her own district lines in an election year.

In the same board meeting, the TVUSD Governing Board voted 3-2 (With two of the Yes votes, being Pulsipher and Rutz-Robbins) to move to the By-trustee voting system and do so for the November 2016 election.

As a candidate seeking re-election in 2016, Rutz-Robbins voted to alter the voting rules and regulations, seemingly a conflict of interest.

At the Oct. 4 board meeting, as one of only three board members present, Rutz-Robbins cast a “Yes” vote to determine how the scenario of a tie would be broken in her own 2016 election. Undoubtedly an unlikely scenario, yet lightning struck a third time within a single month of the board election.

I urge the TVUSD Governing Board taking their seats on Dec. 8 to carefully review the TVUSD Governing Board Election bylaws and I recommend the following additions: First, a sitting board member whose term is ending and is eligible for re-election recuse themselves from voting on an election rule or regulation which could impact the current election cycle.

Second, no candidate either incumbent or challenger shall utilize the district website content or district logo in its campaign materials. The use of the district’s goals and listed accomplishments during a campaign suggests a lack of separation of interests between the board members and the district. The board is to act as an oversight panel on the initiatives the district brings forward, yet the board is elected by and represents the voice of the community. Use of such resources implies that the candidate owns the district more than any other candidate or citizen who fund the school system as a taxpayer.

Hopefully the board will take note here and at the minimum faithfully examine their own potential ethical and moral pratfalls. If they do not, perhaps a districtwide citizens petition could be an alternative. After all, the people have a direct link as voters to the Board Trustees and it is their duty to check their power if they will not self-regulate.

Opinion Inland Empire Taxpayers urge ‘No’ on Temecula tax increase Dear Editor, The Temecula City Council voted unanimously to place a 1 percent sales tax increase on the November ballot. The Inland Empire Taxpayers Association strongly urges a “No” vote on Measure S. To convince people to tax themselves more, the City is using public safety as a scare tactic and luring voters with the promise of improved public works. However, they leave out of their rhetoric the fact that Measure S fails to guarantee that even one single penny will actually go toward police, para-

medic, fire or 9-1-1 services. Nor is any money reserved for school safety patrols, transportation projects, public works, senior services or any other specific uses. Measure S was intentionally written so that the money can be spent on any pet project the City Council votes to approve, such as the $73 million city hall or another million-dollar playground.

If passed, Measure S will add Temecula to the short list of only six cites in five Southern California counties with a sales tax of 9 percent or greater, making the sales

tax in Temecula higher than 94 percent of the surrounding cities!

In addition, unlike the majority of city tax measures, Measure S has no time limit. It increases sales tax in Temecula indefinitely.

By the City’s own accounting, Temecula is projected to have a budget surplus of $270,288 this year. Pechanga entered a new interagency agreement with Temecula in December 2015 agreeing to pay the city $289,000 annually for police and fire services and an additional $15.2 million for road improvements. In our view, there

is simply no justification for a $23 million a year tax increase.

Before you vote, consider this.

How will a sales tax increase impact you and your neighbors?

Raising the sales tax places an additional burden on those who can least afford it, people in lower paying jobs, retirees and others living on fixed incomes. If you shop or dine in Temecula, prepare to pay more. Buying a new car?

Sales tax on cars is based on where you register your vehicle with the Department of Motor Vehicles. If Measure S passes, it won’t matter if

you purchase your car in Temecula or out of town, you’ll pay the higher Temecula sales tax rate.

Let’s not be fooled by clever wording and careful omissions of fact. On Election Day, tell the City of Temecula you won’t be tricked into voting for a greedy sales tax increase that makes no guarantees to actually provide the many shiny services the proponents have been touting. On Nov. 8, vote “No” on Measure S. Chris Mann, Founder, Inland Empire Taxpayers Association

million. The Parking Garage ($19.9 million) and the Town Square/Street Improvements ($5.3 million) were paid for with Redevelopment (RDA) funds, which was a State program designed to create economic development with NO impact to our general fund. City Hall construction

costs totaled $34 million. This public investment generated $136 million in private investment in Old Town and another $106 million in the planning phases. The economic rate of return of the city’s public investment in the Civic Center was beyond our expectations and cannot be disputed.

Finally, Measure S is about preserving and maintaining the high quality of life that we worked so hard over 27 years to build. Vote YES on Measure S! Shawn D. Nelson Former Temecula City Manager

years, those rules changed, and now to keep Temecula the wonderful City it is in which to live, we have to make some changes too. That’s what Measure S on the ballot Nov. 8 is all about.

The California State government

now takes a great deal of money that we used to have locally and uses it to balance its own budget.

Measure S puts only one cent per dollar back into our local treasury to do what’s needed to keep Temecula among the best cities anywhere.

What a small price to pay to live in a great place!

I ask you to please support Temecula and vote YES on Measure S. Peg Moore Founding City Council Member

with people. None of whom could be bothered to present themselves at any public debate forum.

All controlled by three campaign puppeteers who determined the NO NEW TAXES bunch is the best Hemet deserves, or whose integrity is so flawed that’s the best they can attract.

Or both. These same puppeteers held Hemet’s recovery hostage with Milne, Smith and Youseff, so there’s no question their judge-

ment is suspect.

I’m supporting Meyer, Perciful and Wright... three candidates involved in our community. Educated. Professional. Respected.

Honest. Interested in representing the Will of the People.

The choice is ours, Hemet.

Which three will it be?

Emily Quast McDonough Hemet, California

Temecula’s Measure S about maintaining quality of life Dear Editor, I feel strongly that I must share accurate and factual information regarding the City of Temecula, which has operated like a business since 1989.

I know something about the financing, construction and decision

to locate our Civic Center in what was to become the civic heart of our great City (Old Town Temecula). I was a 21-year employee of the City of Temecula; 13 of those years as city manager, where I oversaw this entire project.

First, City Hall did not cost $70

Temecula residents should support Measure S Dear Editor, My name is Peg Moore and I am proud to be one of the original Temecula City Council Members from back when the city started in 1989. We took painstaking care to set up the new city to be among

the best places to live, work and play in California. I couldn’t be happier in the way time has shown our success.

We worked with a set of government rules that made all of that possible. During the last several

Meyer, Perciful and Wright are the right choices for Hemet City Council Dear Editor, Three people are all who stand between today’s deteriorating Hemet and tomorrow’s improved Hemet. Which three, you ask?

The answer depends on which

side of the campaign sign you’re looking at.

Three candidates promise NO NEW TAXES. Let’s look: one of whom is convicted of manslaughter and released from probation in

August ‘16. One of whom only registered to vote in May ‘16, but couldn’t be bothered to vote in the June primary. And one who’s complete lack of civic interest signals an inability to connect

the people of Temecula.” She was right in that trust. Measure C passed overwhelmingly with 77 percent of the vote. As a result, Temecula has beautifully maintained parks from one end of the city to the other.

On Nov. 8, the city is once again at a crossroads. This time, almost 20 years later, it’s Measure S. The state has taken millions of dollars away from Temecula to balance its own budget, while the cost of

police and fire services has gone up tremendously. Measure S is a one-cent sales tax increase to keep Temecula the great city it is for many years to come. If you enjoy living in one of the finest cities in California, please vote to keep it that way. Vote YES on Measure S. Jeff Comerchero Temecula City Councilman

Vote ‘Yes’ on Measure S Some of you have lived in Temecula for a long time and remember Measure C in 1997. Our city was in danger of losing funding to maintain its parks. It was a critical measure because passage meant a great park system and failure meant Temecula would become a mediocre city, at best.

Everyone was nervous. One of the first Temecula council members, Patricia H. Birdsall said, “I trust

Resident encourages ‘Yes’ vote on Measure S Dear Editor, Is one penny per dollar worth having the appropriate levels of police protection? Is one penny worth being able to add police officers as our population grows to address homelessness, early parolee release and increasing crime?

Is one penny worth maintaining a paramedic on every fire engine in Temecula? Is one penny worth investing further in road, park and facility maintenance? Is one penny worth investment in projects that

help traffic circulation and congestion? Is one penny worth protecting our senior, youth and special needs programs? Is one penny worth maintaining the high quality of life we enjoy in the City? Is one penny worth our future?

YES, IT IS! Measure S is a quality of life decision that we voters must make Nov. 8. The City has a history of balanced budgets, a track record of investing our dollars wisely into building a great City and they will

continue to invest in our community. Look around, what attracted you to this City? Was it the landscaped medians? Or parks and recreation?

Or special events that maintain our small town feel?

Please join me, fellow residents, businesses, law enforcement and firefighters on voting Yes on S Nov. 8.

In the Southwestern League, all six local teams advanced with Great Oak (D1), Murrieta Valley (D2) and Murrieta Mesa (D3) all getting into their perspective divisions with At-Large bids.

a percentage to various Temecula Veteran Centers and clubs like Team Red, White and Blue.

The Pumas Veterans Day inaugural golf tournament is being held Nov. 11, at Cross Creek Golf Club, in Temecula off Glen Meadows road. Most of the money raised will go towards team shoes, team socks, travel bags and essentials the team may need.

To register and pay online for the golf tournament, visit Chaparrals boys’ basketball website at www. chsboysbasketball.com.

After the golf tournament is over anyone can join in on the helicopter golf ball drop. Members of the team will be selling tickets for $15, or go to charityvalet.com/chsbasketball/ and purchase a ticket.

Those who participate in this event will have a chance to win 10 percent, up to $1,500, of the funds raised in the ball drop.

There is no better feeling than giving back to your community while also helping out your high school organization and Chaparral Head Basketball Coach, Robb Floco, knows that.

“As the upcoming basketball season gets closer, I wanted to take some pressure off the parents who give so much all year long so their student athletes can partake in their favorite high school sports, so not to re-invent the wheel or anything, but we figured a fun golf tournament fundraiser would be key for this group of players and their families, since so may have military ties and love to play golf,” said Floco.

Chaparral High School is offering a chance to donate money to their basketball team and once complete, the team will be donating

Executive Chef Gianni Ciciliot, voted “Best Chef,” and his staff are introducing numerous delicious and healthy new items to the menu. The restaurant is promoting Mediterranean items on their menu and how these foods assist those individuals stay healthy.

The Mediterranean diet has been proven to be 33 to 46 percent more effective than a low-fat diet in reducing the risk of stroke or heart attack.

The new menu includes many new health conscience small plates,

large plates, sandwiches, entrees and desserts. Staying with their Mediterranean American food theme, Ciciliot is introducing new small plates including Lamb Lollipops featuring lamb ribs marinated with rosemary and garlic oil served with roasted carrots, celery root, and potatoes with balsamic mint reduction; Shrimp Cous Cous using sautéed shrimp served with Israeli cous cous with basil, shallots and green onion; and Roasted Beets and Squash using oven-roasted butternut squash, golden beets, and candy cane beets with Gorgonzola cheese, crispy pork belly and Mediterranean olive oil.

For large plate options the Tasso Ham Bolognese with Tasso ham, ground beef, garlic, shallots, fresh tomato and basil on pappardelle pasta with shaved Parmesan cheese is a sure hit with diners. Ciciliot also added an entrée of Baja Striped Sea bass, pan seared and served over roasted cauliflower crumbles topped with an heirloom tomato asparagus salsa.

Finish the meal with the chef’s newest housemade dessert, Grilled Pineapple Upside-down Cake with

Field of Honor opens Saturday

Rotarian Dawn Pavlik greets students at the Historical Flags section.

Jann Gentry photo

MURRIETA – The eighth annual Field of Honor opens Saturday, Nov. 5, in Murrieta Town Square Park, located on the corner of Kalmia and Jefferson in Murrieta and will continue for a full week, ending Nov. 12.

This wonder-filled weeklong event features over 2,000 flags flying in silent testament to our personal heroes

– soldiers, first responders, veterans, and others – those who dedicate their lives to make ours better.

Opening day will be vastly different this year than last, starting with the inaugural “Run Forrest Run” 5k event. Hundreds of runners have already signed up to be a part of the event and to “Run for the Real

Lieutenant Dans.” Registration for the race will open at 7:30 a.m. with the race commencing at 9 a.m. All proceeds from the event will benefit the Gary Sinise Foundation which builds specialty homes for wounded warriors.

New this year will be the Military Family Expo hosted by the Women’s Council of Realtors Riverside County. All vendors at the expo will have a service or product geared to military personnel and their families. Paul Mitchell the School of Temecula will conduct a Cut-a-thon where haircuts will range from $5 to $10. The school expects to have 30 student stylists on-site for the event.

While attending Opening Day, be sure to visit the Patriots Chalk Walk and watch the artists as they create their fantastic sidewalk murals.

Fifteen or so artists are scheduled to participate and their work is always inspiring.

During the week that follows, special events are scheduled for nearly every day. On Monday, the Rotary Club of Murrieta will host the Veterans Luncheon for about 250 people (by invitation only).

Over 4,000 fifth-grade students from Murrieta Valley School District, Temecula schools and Lake Elsinore will visit the field Monday through Thursday as docents and teachers lead them on tours throughout the park visiting the war memorials, the Medal of Honor recipients section, the historic flags section, Local Heroes section and new this year, the 50 state flags section.

Wednesday, Nov. 8, is the date for the Candlelight concert, featuring MVUSD middle schools combined choirs. The concert begins at 6 p.m.

Thursday is the Marine Corps Birthday celebration at 1 p.m. and later, the Final Salute—the flag retirement ceremony conducted by the

Boy Scouts begins at 5 p.m. Over 500 flags that have served their country will be ceremoniously retired and give one, final salute.

Friday is Veterans Day and the City of Murrieta will hold its annual parade scheduled to finish at the park amid the flags.

Saturday Nov. 12, the Patriots Ball will officially close the field and honor this year’s selected heroes. The semi-formal Ball features a band, dinner, dancing and auctions. For more information on any one of the days’ events, visit www.murrietafieldofhonor.com.

The Field of Honor is a fundraiser for the Murrieta Rotary Club so the club may continue to fund student scholarships, leadership camps for students, community projects and international concerns. For more information about the Rotary Club, visit www.MurrietaRotary.org.

The event will feature remarks by city dignitaries, the presentation of military banners to recognize active military personnel from Temecula’s Military Banner Program and a performance by the Temecula Valley Symphony.

Dining in the Valley

Tonino Restaurant & Wine Bar is a gusto-filled culinary journey

Gnocchi – “Di Mamma” is a dish inspired by Marie Saad’s mother.

Nathalie Taylor VALLEYSTAFF@REEDERMEDIA.COM

T

onino Restaurant & Wine Bar is a fragrant cauldron stewing with aromas that stir the senses. The food and scents will definitely lure you to this Murrieta establishment, but the unique ambiance might keep you there for a while. A long while. It’s a dining experience similar to what I have experienced in Europe. If you choose to order a number of courses, then enjoy them slowly over conversation, the evening stretches on. Of course, you could bypass the grazing and eat and dash if you prefer. It’s your decision.

Tony and Marie Saad, the husband and wife who own and run the establishment, were both born overseas. Tony’s home country is Egypt, and Marie is from Italy.

The two have roots in different countries, but they do share a love of fine cuisine and a dream of presenting it in a warm, welcoming atmosphere. When they say, “Benvenuti,” they mean it. Fine cuisine is the anchor of the restaurant, but the couple’s welcoming demeanor is the anchor chain.

Tony owned a restaurant in Al-

exandria, Egypt, which is on the Mediterranean, so the recipes he uses in his Murrieta establishment have a Mediterranean flair. For instance, diners can enjoy Falafel – fried chickpea patties and also feast on colorful Dolmes, a spiced ground beef and rice mix rolled tightly in grape leaves.

Italian dishes form the majority of the restaurant’s menu items.

Marie’s family had restaurants in Bari, located on the Adriatic Sea in southern Italy, so the recipes that she uses reflect the tastes of that region. In addition to using family recipes, Marie creates some of her own. Chef Todd Reeve also develops recipes, and is a valuable

asset in the kitchen.

Their food is always fresh. Tony does all his own shopping, twice a week, at local markets.

“We never use frozen or canned food,” he explained, “food changes flavor when you keep it.”

I visited Tonino on a Saturday night, and the atmosphere was brimming with cheer. Happy chatter and music rose to every corner of the restaurant. A delightful accordion player strolled from table to table playing a lively repertoire, and after a while, continued to entertain guests from a keyboard. The atmosphere made me feel like I was an extra in some Italian movie.

Chosen from the antipasto menu, the Burrata Mozzarella was fresh, smooth and creamy. The mozzarella encased a creamy ricotta cheese interior. Served on a bed of fresh basil leaves and sliced tomatoes, the appetizer was then doused with extra-virgin olive oil and balsamic glaze. The glaze lent a flavor pop to the otherwise mild cheese.

A sizzling chicken kabob was set before me. The juicy Shish Taouk is a traditional Egyptian dish.

Tender chicken is marinated in spices, skewered with onions and green and red bell peppers, then

grilled. It’s a vibrant dish, both in presentation and flavor. A mound of housemade hummus, complete with Mediterranean flavors, including olive oil and paprika, nudged the kabob on the plate. No need for a spoon – I just scooped up the hummus with the warm, grilled pita bread as they would in Egypt.

The menu bursts with traditional Italian pasta entrées – some with the touch of Marie’s mother. One dish, the Gnocchi – “Di Mamma,” featured Italian home-style gnocchi. Soft, pillow-like, bite-sized dumplings were awash in a special marinara sauce. The savory sauce was swirled with Parmesan cheese and basil – the creative way Marie’s mother would make it.

A sophisticated Italian finale to the meal was Spumoni Bomba, an artistic and decadent dessert. The strawberry, pistachio and chocolate gelato trio wore a

delightful chocolate coat, drizzled with chocolate. Rosettes of cream and fresh mint leaves punctuated the plate. The gelato was light and smooth, and the pistachio, chocolate and strawberry flavors made a heavenly threesome.

If you have dined in Europe you can relive the pleasures at Tonino, and if you haven’t, enjoy a snippet of the experience at this restaurant where, each night, the inventive food leaves a culinary legacy.

S.A.F.E. Alternatives for Everyone celebrates 15 years of service

The S.A.F.E. staff gathers for the 15th annual meeting. All but four are new employees in the past three months due to recently-secured grant funding.

Patti Drew, agency development coordinator for S.A.F.E., shared about the various programs provided by the agency.

S.A.F.E. Alternatives for Everyone is a nonprofit agency committed to providing programs and services to children, youth and families who have experienced or are at risk of abuse and violence.

S.A.F.E. has been providing lifesaving services in the community since 1998. The agency has served 1,261 clients so far in 2016; 70 percent are victims of domestic violence.

The agency provides domestic violence assistance out of the Family Justice Center and works in partnership with the Riverside County District Attorney’s Office, Riverside Area Rape Crisis Center, community law enforcement and other nonprofit agencies to support victims of domestic violence in a comprehensive and collaborative approach. Services include assistance with temporary restraining orders, emergency assistance and basic needs assistance.

June Earley, who started with the organization in 2002, was recently named executive director. She is also celebrating her two-year anniversary as a breast cancer survivor and emphasized the need for victims of both domestic violence and breast cancer for encouragement, uplifting, praise, positive words, and strength as opposed to shame, embarrassment, fault, judgement and isolation. “Survival – our clients do this every day!” Earley said.

S.A.F.E. also partners with the Temecula and Murrieta police departments to provide safe, quality programming for youth in the community through the Police Activities League. PAL is a youth violence prevention program and youth intervention program for children ages five to 17. The program has open enrollment for all children and teens with no fee and is dedicated to providing programs and activities which offer children opportunities to interact with positive caring adult role models in a safe environment. Earley presented a check to Chiefs Kubel and Hadden for the PAL. Girls Circle is a S.A.F.E. program specifically for middle school girls that focuses on friendships

S.A.F.E. Alternatives for Everyone held its 15th annual meeting Oct. 2, at the Temecula Community Center on Pujol Street.

The gathering attracted dozens

of local community and business members as well as local officials: John Hunneman representing Senator Jeff Stone, Opal Hellwig representing County Supervisor Chuck Washington, Mayor Pro-tem Rick Gibbs from Murrieta, Murrieta Councilman Jonathan Ingram, Me-

EVMWD receives millions in grant funding and low-interest loans for technology to help customers save water LAKE ELSINORE – In an effort to modernize water service and invest in more efficient water practices, Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District received $4.76 million in grants and lowinterest loans from the State Water Resources Control Board Green Project Program. The funding will allow EVMWD to install advanced metering technology throughout the service area. The funding, which is made up of $2.38 million in grants and $2.38 million in low-

interest loans, will allow EVMWD to retrofit 37,438 meters, which currently do not have the advanced meter technology.

The advanced meter technology is a device added to a customer’s water meter, which can be read with radio signals between the meter and an antenna located at a nearby water reservoir. Once installed, the advanced meter will provide customers with the ability to immediately detect leaks, view water usage, set alerts, and better

gauge their daily water saving efforts. This new technology will also allow EVMWD to manage meters remotely and detect leaks within its distribution system immediately.

“We are grateful to the State for allowing EVMWD, through its many funding programs, to take another meaningful step towards water conservation for the future,” President of the Board of Directors for EVMWD Phil Williams said.

“The funds that have been made available will allow EVMWD to

expand our conservation efforts without burdening our ratepayers.”

With the installation of the automated metering devices, EVMWD expects to see savings of more than 1200 acre feet of water a year, reducing the amount of expensive imported water needed to meet demands.

EVMWD also recently received more than $1.6 million from the California Department of Water Resources Water- Energy Grant and the Bay Delta Restoration

Program: CALFED Water Use Efficiency Grant to assist in funding for the earlier phases of the project. Customers in Lakeland Village and other parts of Lake Elsinore received the advanced meter technology as part of the pilot program. The addition of the device to the remaining meters within the service area is ongoing and will be completed within the next two years.

Churned Creamery brings one-of-a-kind ice cream concept to Murrieta MURRIETA – Churned Creamery, a unique and decadent ice cream concept, is opening its doors in Murrieta in late October. Using state-of-the-art churning technology from Italy, each handcrafted flavor is freshly made and kept at the perfect texture and temperature for an extraordinary experience.

The creamery is located in the California Oaks Plaza.

Churned Creamery uses a modern version of the traditional churning barrel. Using only the highest quality ingredients and locally sourced dairy, small batches of ice cream are handcrafted throughout the day ensuring that

customers are always getting the freshest and most premium quality frozen treat. Churned Creamery churns its ice cream right in front of the customers, taking every scoop straight from the churning barrel.

Not only is Churned Creamery changing the ice cream making process, they are also offering a couple delicious new treats. The CroCream is a freshly baked croissant stuffed with a scoop of churned ice cream and toppings.

These soft and flaky croissants are baked fresh throughout the day so customers get a perfect experience every time. Churned Creamery

will also be serving Street Churros, a popular brand from South Korea.

“We are so excited about this new ice cream concept,” Ellen Cho, one of the owners of Churned Creamery Murrieta, said. “We use premium, high quality ingredients and the technology really does bring that freshly churned ice cream flavor and texture to life. We can’t wait for everyone to try it!”

Whether satisfying a frozen treat craving with a CroCream, Street Churro, traditional ice cream shake, chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich, waffle cone or just in a cup, Churned Creamery offers it all along with an unforget-

TEMECULA – Thirty hair donors and 30 volunteer hair cutters came together inside the Pechanga Resort & Casino hotel lobby on a Thursday morning for an emotional kick off to October as Breast Cancer Awareness month. The 30 hair donors each had eight or more inches of their long, lustrous locks chopped off all at the same time.

That’s the same as the height of two regulation basketball hoops on top of one another. It was the first time the Temecula resort/casino held a mass haircutting event, called “Hair With Hope,” aimed at honor-

ing breast cancer awareness, and increasing visibility for the need for hair donations. After the big hair chops, two brave women currently battling breast cancer came to the stage. They received their very own human hair wigs made from hair donations just like the ones at Pechanga Resort & Casino.

Monica Quintanilla and Denise Broome, both diagnosed several months ago with breast cancer and who have both lost their hair due to treatment, received wigs free of charge through the American Cancer Society.

“What these people are doing, giving their hair for people like me, it may not seem like much, but to us, what they’re doing gives us so much hope,” said Broome who is currently battling breast cancer.

“Having hair makes me feel more like myself. Treatment is really harsh on your body.”

Breast cancer patients like Broome say the side effects of breast cancer treatment, especially hair loss, can be devastating to a woman’s psyche. Receiving a wig is one small thing that helps one feel more normal.

“This is the third time I’ve donated my hair,” said hair donor Sonia Lopez of Menifee. “It’s something my sister and I started doing about seven years ago since our hair grows so fast, and it’s in honor of our dad who died from prostate cancer nine years ago.

After seeing someone go through the difficult stages of cancer, seeing what it does to a person’s body, it’s a tough experience. It helps to know my hair is going to make someone else going through cancer happy.”

The Pechanga haircutting program continued throughout October. Men, women or children willing to cut off and donate 8 inches or more of hair received a free haircut and style courtesy of Spa Pechanga (a $75 value). The hair will be matched with five to six other hair donations and made into single wigs that are given to women who have lost their hair due to cancer treatment. The American Cancer Society distributes them for free to female cancer patients through their national network of wig banks. Michelle’s Place, a resource and counseling center for breast cancer patients and families, is the Southwest Riverside County wig bank location.

To date, Spa Pechanga has collected 100 ponytails hosting the Hair With Hope haircutting campaign in the salon. This is the first year the initiative moved beyond the salon. Spa Pechanga management had a goal of collecting more than 100 ponytail donations this October.

The Centers for Disease Control show breast cancer is the most common cancer among American women affecting one in eight.

American Cancer Society statistics show that one in three women will develop some form of cancer in her lifetime. The organization estimates that 292,130 new cases of breast cancer afflicted women in 2015. Hair loss, one of the most common side effects of cancer treatment, can be especially traumatic for a woman fighting cancer.

Pechanga has long upheld a tradition of providing critical resources for those in need.

For more than a decade, Pechanga Resort & Casino has been a major supporter of the Susan G. Komen Foundation in its region.

Over the last four years, resort/ casino employees have donated more than $130,000 to the fight against breast cancer and toward raising awareness.

Riverside Family, county health officials warn of the dangers of childhood lead poisoning homes built before 1978 can create a danger if they contain chipped and peeling lead-based paint.

Over the past year, Riverside County has identified 296 children with lead poisoning. Public health officials hoped to increase awareness about the dangers of lead during Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Week.

Once a blood test is ordered in cases such as Miguel’s, the county is notified of high blood lead levels by a state Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Branch public health nurse. The Riverside Lead Poisoning Prevention team ensured that Miguel was admitted to the hospital for treatment and then prompted an investigation of the Jimenez’ rented home through the Riverside County Department of Environmental Health. The review found that the old interior paint and the soil surrounding the home was likely the source of the lead.

Environmental health professionals tested the family’s home, which was built before 1978, and determined contamination was significant enough that the Jimenez family was forced to abandon their residence in December 2015.

“We were in a hotel for a month at Christmas time,” Jimenez said. The family was able to secure temporary

TEMECULA – Riverside resident and mother of three Griselda Jimenez sensed something was wrong. Her 18-month-old toddler Miguel was unusually lethargic and not forming words. When she shared these concerns with her son’s doctor, they decided to run some tests just to be sure all was well.

Jimenez, 32, was shocked to learn that Miguel’s blood tested “ridiculously high” for lead. A flurry of tests ensued, resulting in a weeklong hospital stay for Miguel. There were also follow-up testing with her older children, Ezekiel, 3, and Gracie, 13, whose levels lead also were elevated.

Lead poisoning can harm young brains, making it hard for children to learn, to pay attention and to behave.

Most children who have lead poisoning do not look or act sick. A blood test is the only way to know if a child has lead poisoning.

“Miguel was chewing on the windowsill, and we believe that this is what contributed to the especially high lead levels in his blood,” Desiree Contreras said. Contreras is a health services assistant with Riverside County Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Program. Toddlers who are teething commonly chew on anything they can find. Lead tastes sweet, and

housing, thanks to a referral to Riverside County Department of Public Social Services.

“I am speaking out because I want people to know how dangerous lead is,” Jimenez said, adding that Miguel is on his way to recovery.

The Riverside County Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention team linked the family to services including Inland Regional Center, Early Head Start and California Children’s Services. Miguel attends weekly speech therapy services

to improve his speech and language skills. He and his siblings are also tested routinely and have seen a marked decline in their blood lead levels.

Take these simple steps to keep children safe from lead. Avoid chipping or peeling paint and dirt. Lead in dirt and dust can stick to hands and toys. Wash children’s toys frequently. Wash their hands often; especially before eating and sleeping. Feed children healthy meals and snacks every day.

“This is a program that makes a real

difference in the lives of families and children throughout Riverside County,” Director of the Riverside University Health System – Public Health Sarah Mack said. “We are happy to know that little Miguel is healing, and we hope that this family’s story will help to make all residents aware of the dangers of lead.”

First Place in the “Pet and Owner Over 12” category went to the Wizard of Oz theme with Koda as Toto at this year’s Paws on the Promenade costume contest.

Paul Bandong PBANDONG@REEDERMEDIA.COM It was all about the dogs at Animal Friends of the Valleys’ Annual Paws on the Promenade Spooktacular Dog Walk. Creatively-costumed dogs, children and pet owners were everywhere at the outdoor plaza in front of the theatres at the Promenade Mall in Temecula.

The event attracted hundreds and featured over 40 vendors, a pet parade, pet (and owner) costume contest, a raffle, and a Monster Mash green screen. The event is designed to promote awareness about adopting pets, learn more about pet ownership, raise money for the shelter, and provide exposure for businesses that support animals. AFV hopes to become a nokill shelter in the near future.

Murrieta Mayor Randon Lane led numerous troops of Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts in the Pledge of Allegiance. A moment of silence was held in support of four recently fallen police officers. Lexi Gunn, a senior from Chaparral High School, sang the national anthem.

Judges for this year’s contest were Lane, Mayor Bridgette Moore from Wildomar, City Councilwoman Shellie Milne from Hemet, and Paul Bandong from the Valley News.

“It is hard to choose,” said Moore, “There are so many great costumes!”

Costumes included Lion King and Simba, Yoda, a royal lady with crowned and gowned spaniel, “Happy” the one-eyed pirate albino dog,

Cinabun, the giant tarantula, won first place for “The Spookiest” category at this year’s Paws on the Promenade costume contest.

Gaston’s commanding look in his police uniform earned him the distinction of “Dashing Dude” at this year’s Paws on the Promenade costume contest.

Maxine and Bailey, decked out in gossamer and intricate makeup walked away with the “Darling Divas” award at this year’s Paws on the Promenade costume contest.

First Place in the “Pet and Owner 12 and Under” went to Maggie and Aurelia at this year’s Paws on the Promenade costume contest.

“Tank” the bulldog dressed in his finest “Magic Mike/Chippendales” bowtie and thong, a “Bat Dog,” “Pocahontas” and her Chihuahua, a Beekeeper owner with her “pet bee,” another bulldog dressed in Hawaiian hula skirt and coconut shell bikini top.

There was a hot rod dog with racing helmet in a custom made soap box car with custom upholstery and a dog in a makeshift fire engine wagon with owner in turnout gear. A late attendee was “Macy” a pink-dyed Great Dane.

The winner of the “Pet and Owner Under 12” was an Angel/Devil theme

by Maggie and her owner Aurelia.

The winner of the “Pet and Owner Over 12” was the Wizard of Oz trio featuring Koda as Toto and owner Michelle as Dorothy.

“The Spookiest” category was won by Cinabun dressed as a giant tarantula.

Molly “The Peacock” earned the “Most Original” award.

The intricate gossamer costumes and makeup earned Maxine and Bailey the “Darling Divas” title.

The “Dashing Dude” top award was won by Gaston who dressed as a police officer.

“Once again, this event would not be possible without the sponsorship and help of many businesses, organizations and people,” said Tiffani Young, events and fundraising coordinator for AFV. AFV presented sponsor appreciation plaques to the VCA Animal Hospital, Paradise Buick/ GMC, Nelson Realty Group, David Serpa Homes Team, and Temecula Trophy. Sound and music was provided by DJ Ke Moe. The Chaparral ROTC group provided manpower for

setup and teardown. The Promenade Mall provided facilities/staging and logistical support.

Young expressed her appreciation of the support and participation of Alexandra Designz, Beauty Counter, Best Friends, Cakes by Carolyn, Camp Bow Wow, Coldwell Banker, Cre8tive Imaginations, David Serpa, Dog Haus Menifee, Dogtopia, Dunkin’ Donuts, ECS Dog Training, Get Air, Grooming Tails, Hand Made with Love, Hawk Ranch, Hill Rehab, Home Perfect Carpet, Hopkins Pet Supply, Isagenix Nutrition, Kahoots, Kountry Kennels, Lazy Daisey Pies, Lazy Dog Restaurant, Lulaore Clothing, Los Primos, Mix Party, Mulligan’s Family Fun Center, Murrieta Animal Hospital, Natalie’s Rascals, Nelson Realty Group, New Life Sanctuary, Organic Cleaning Services, Paradise Buick GMC, Paws for Laws, Perfect Pet Spaw, Petco Unleashed, Pound for Pound, Precise Pet Foods, Rainbow Cleaning, Rock Fitness, Sam’s Club, Scentsy, STAT Horse Sanctuary, Tamra Gerard Art, Team Markakis, Temecula Citizens Core, Temecula Trophy, Temecula Valley Vegans, Temecula Valley Vet Hospital, The Laundered Mutt, The Young and the Healthy, Tonino’s Restaurant, Valley Vet Clinic, VCA Animal Hospital and Which Wich Sandwich Shops.

“It’s a lot of work,” said Young, “But it is such a fun and worthwhile event. We’re looking forward to doing this again next year and we invite more pets and owners to come out and more businesses to support us.”

Living Landscapes help California homeowners protect property from wildfires Kris Kiser OUTDOOR POWER EQUIPMENT INSTITUTE

California is undergoing a brutal fire season, and sadly, reports say it’s only getting underway. Relentless drought, Santa Ana winds, and the millions of dead trees in the state killed by lack of water and bark beetle infestation combine to create a perfect storm for increased fire danger.

Living landscapes – grass, trees, shrubs and flowering plants – can

help California homeowners protect their property and their real estate values. Fire danger is just one more reason not to rip out your lawn in favor of deadened mulch, rocks, pavers and even plastic grass.

According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, living grass is the best natural fire break. Healthy turf grass can be a significant deterrent to wildfires and can help protect property. Green grass retards the spread of wildfires because of its low fuel value. It also

provides a defendable space around structures where firefighters can work effectively. In fact, according to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, homeowners are required by law to create a defensible space of 100 feet around their home by allocating a “lean, clean and green zone” that is void of flammable vegetation within 30 feet of their house and a “reduced fuel zone” in the remaining 70 feet (or to the property line).

But how exactly can California homeowners have a green, living landscape in the midst of severe drought and water restrictions? It’s simple, really.

Know your climate zone. What plants survive best, taking into account your region and use?

Select plants that are drought– tolerant. For instance, many species of grass require very little water.

You can even look for fire–retardant plants and shrubs (such as rockrose, ice plant, aloe, hedging roses and shrub apples) for added protection.

Water wisely and only when necessary. Grass requires much less water than most people think.

The best time for homeowners to protect their property from wildfire is before one strikes. To learn more about the importance of living landscapes and for more tips on how to protect green space even in drought conditions, visit LivingLandscapesMatter.com.

Real Estate / Home & Garden

Is this holiday season a good time to buy a home?

Mike Mason SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

Should I buy a home now? Is this a good time to buy? What’s going to happen with the real estate market next year? What effect, if any, will a new president have on housing in general? What about Interest rates, will they finally start going up or down even further?

These are the same questions every real estate agent hears on a daily basis when talking with potential buyers. Depending on who the real estate agent is, their level of expertise, their understanding of the local market conditions, how closely they follow and understand the economic indicators that effect the housing market and perhaps most importantly what guides their moral compass, a buyer is likely to get many different answers to the same question.

The long and short of it, there really are only two good times to buy real estate, five years ago and today. Since we can’t go back with our ‘would of, could of, should of” time machine, let’s focus of what we can control, that is the present, today.

Three questions First, you need to ask yourself three questions. Only you can determine if this is the right time.

1. Do you want to buy a home?

2. Are you in a financial position to buy a home?

3. Is your credit profile sound enough so you can qualify for a loan?

Answer no to any one of these very simple and basic questions and you may as well start reading another column because you’ll never buy a home as long as the answer to any of them remains no. However, if you can answer YES to all three questions, then consider the following: Homes are affordable – while they are not at the lowest point they’ve been in the last 10 years they are still obtainable for most buyers. Consider you can still buy an existing home today for less than it would cost to build it new.

Interest rates are low – Rates are the lowest they have ever been. I remember in 1981 interest rates for the best borrowers were at 18 percent - many paid as much as 21 percent for a home loan. Depending what report you

read and what data are analyzed, an average mortgage rates today, are in the 3.5 percent range.

Rates are expected to rise – It’s true that a year ago many predicted that 2016 was going to be a boom year for real estate and while prices have gone up, big increases never materialized.

A year ago, many were predicting that interest rates would have climbed above 6 percent by this time. With that being said, the Mortgage Bankers Association is currently projecting that interest rates, for a home loan, a year from now will rise slightly into the 4 percent range.

Easier to qualify – The inside joke amongst real estate agents and loan officers use to be that as long as an applicant could fog a mirror they qualified for a loan.

Well, it will never be that easy again. After the collapse of our economy the pendulum swung to the other extreme making it near impossible for any but the most qualified individuals to obtain a home loan. Today, requirements are beginning to loosen up some as the pendulum started its journey back again. Both FICO Credit Score and loan-to-value standards have recently been relaxed.

First Time Buyer programs – A First Time Buyer can qualify for an Federal Housing Administration Loan with only 3.5 percent down and a 620 FICO Credit Score. There are other programs that come and go that will assist first time homebuyers with down payments. Some are outright grants!

Less holiday competition – There are far fewer buyers in the marketplace between October and January than any other time of the year, for a number of reasons. Regardless of the reason, less competition means you are less likely to compete with other buyers for the same home. Sellers are typically motivated, otherwise they would be waiting for the spring selling season. Motivated sellers means a better negotiated price or other concessions.

Frustration in the market – There have been a lot of people waiting to get back in the market.

Millions of families who lost their home to either a Short Sale or a Foreclosure are now start-

ing to re-enter the real estate market, after waiting a mandatory minimum three years before being able to qualify for a loan.

These buyers are being called Boomerang Buyers and typically qualify for any First Time Buyer program being offered.

The other frustrated buyer is the young professional of the Millennial Generation who moved back with their parents after graduating college, because of the uncertainty of the entire economy. They have saved money for a home and are ready to get out on their own and buy their first home.

With more qualified buyers entering the market as potential buyers a bidding war scenario is very likely which will drive up purchase prices.

Owning beats renting – Owning a home has always been, and always will be a large part of the American Dream. In most markets, including here in the Temecula and Murrieta Valley

owning a home makes financial sense. Not only are there tax benefits (consult your own professional tax person), the potential equity that will accumulate over the life of the home…it’s all about the Pride of Ownership!

Roses need lots of care in dry, hot weather tion, fertilization and the weather.

After pruning, restart your feeding program.

Make sure the plants are deeply watered the day before. I recommend organic types and alternating with fish emulsions.

This time of year, use a fertilizer that contains greater percentage of (P) phosphate in relation to (N) nitrogen and (K) potassium—that is, the middle number in the NP-K formula on the box or bag will be the highest. This will enhance resistance to stress by encouraging a stronger root system.

If temperatures are in 90s or above, and you do not use organics, hold off gpointstudio/Thinkstock photo fertilizing until weather cools down.

can survive. A layer of 4 inches of mulch will greatly reduce evaporation of soil moisture. This year the soil dries out more quickly than in previous years due to less water being applied as in previous years and, in general, the dryer soil environment.

With potted roses this is even more critical. Assess conditions every morning. Look for wilted or dry, crispy foliage. If you discover it soon enough, dousing with plenty of water may save the plant. If you wait to inspect until the afternoon or evening it may be too late or you might not get a good assessment of the plant’s condition: After a hot day, most plants can appear wilted while still receiving sufficient hydration.

Also inspect your irrigation system to make sure it is delivering enough water, isn’t clogged and isn’t over watering – all problems that come with age in drip irrigation systems. If an emitter is delivering much more or much less water than others on the line, it can change the system pressure and affect the other emitters. The simple solution: Replace it!

If a clay pot is used, more water is needed as the clay will absorb moisture from the potting soil and evaporate through the porous clay material. Plastic pots are better as they will not absorb moisture from the soil.

In any case, avoid staging potted roses on concrete that is exposed to direct sun, as that can heat damage their roots. Another possible problem with potted plants is the soil can pull away from the sides of the pot and water will just run through and out the drain holes in the bottom. This problem can be corrected by pressing the soil back against the inside sides of the pot when the soil is wet.

It’s not too early to start thinking about which roses you will remove and what you’ll replace them with. Go ahead and request catalogs from rose suppliers – they’re always available. Also, if you haven’t mulched recently, estimate the amount of composted mulch you’ll need in order to

cover your garden beds 4” deep and plan to buy it for this coming winter or spring. An area 10 feet X 5 feet will require 4-5 cubic yards of mulch.

A common problem when hot, dry, dusty conditions prevail is spider mites. This topic was covered in a previous care column which you can find in the TemeculaValleyRoseSociety.org newsletter; look for Care for September 2013.

With warm days and cooler nights of fall weather be watchful for black spot and powdery mildew as well and treat as soon as detected. Now would be ideal time to plant roses while soil is warm and still time to settle in before colder weather. Do not heavy prune until after plant has experienced a dormant period, usually after cold nights of below freezing temperature.
