Paramedic calls up 13 percent; grant to provide more staf fing

Joe Naiman Village News Correspondent

The construction to widen State Route 76 from two lanes to four between South Mission Road and Interstate 15 began in November 2014 and is expected to be complete in 2016. The milestones completed during 2015 included completion of a second eastbound lane between South Mission Road and Gird Road, allowing for traffic to use one lane in each direction on that part while work is being performed on the westbound lanes in that area. The expected milestones for 2016 include completion of all four lanes between Gird Road and Interstate 15. “Sometime in summer, probably early summer, they will be opening up the lanes between Gird Road and I-15,” said California Department of Transportation project manager Karen Jewel. Because the segment between Gird Road and just west of Old Highway 395 utilizes a new alignment, phased work was not necessary to accommodate existing traffic. “I think they’re going to be able to open up that whole alignment at one time,” Jewel said. “They will finish up that earthwork and get those lanes in by summer. Then they’ll be able to do the work on the existing alignment probably by fall.”

FAA announces Bedke will demonstrate in January FALLBROOK – The Fallbrook Art Association has announced its guest artist for its Jan. 14 meeting, Cloyd Bedke. He is an watercolor painter of landscape, still life, and people. Bedke was born in Southern Idaho, growing up on his father’s cattle ranch.

A graduate of Utah State University with a BS in Arts, he worked as an illustrator and then in 1966 took up painting full time. He was licensed by the state of Utah Sesquicentennial Council in1997 to paint pictures depicting the pioneer trek west. His paintings can be found in many private collections around the world. He now lives in Temecula and is a sought after teacher known for his sense of humor. The general meetings are held at the Fallbrook School of the Arts, are open to the public, and begin at 5:30 p.m. FAA members are welcome to bring in one “painting in progress” for comments and suggestions for possible improvement from the demonstrator. Bedke will provide a demonstration of his technique at the meeting and will hold a workshop for interested members the following Sunday, Jan. 17. Checks should be brought to the meeting to pay for the workshop. For more information, see www. fallbrookartassn.org.

alignment which will cross over the San Diego County Water Authority’s Second Aqueduct approximately half a mile west of Interstate 15. The bridge over the aqueduct will provide approximately eight feet of vertical clearance between the bottom of the bridge and the ground. Since the new bridge crossing will hinder the SDCWA’s ability to maintain, repair, or replace the pipelines under the bridge an agreement was negotiated to reline the CWA pipelines impacted by the bridge crossing and the pipeline rehabilitation preceded the work on the Caltrans bridge which began in fall 2015. During January, the 140 foot long girders which will be placed over the abutments are expected to arrive. “Basically most structures work will be completed next year,” Jewel said. The vegetation clearing in early 2015 allowed for utility relocation. “We have begun some of the utilities and sewer work between Mission and Gird Road. That will continue,” Jewel said. In addition to electric, telephone, and cable utility line relocation, the Rainbow Municipal Water District water and sewer lines between Sweetgrass Lane and Gird Road will also be realigned to accommodate the highway widening. Jewel expects the utility work to be completed during 2016. Some of the fill for the new road, including embankments, is from the Vessels property south of the San Luis Rey River, and hauling of that earthwork was also part of the 2015 activity. Some of the soil from that stockpile will be used for re-vegetation sites. The hauling of earthwork from the Vessels property will likely continue through summer 2016. The new road will be elevated approximately six to eight feet above the old highway. The construction of the embankments will include the installation of five wild animal crossings. The crossings for the eastbound lanes have been completed and the crossings for the westbound lanes are part of the 2016 plans. To comment on this story online, visit www.thevillagenews.com.

from page A-1 The existing Highway 76 is 30 feet wide on average. The widened road will average 44 feet of paved surface in each direction which equates to two travel lanes 12 feet wide along with inside and outside shoulder lanes 10 feet wide, and the road will also include turn lanes, acceleration and deceleration lanes, and barriers. During 2015 the hauling of fill to the alignment on the southern part of the road between South Mission Road and Gird Road was followed by paving a two-lane road on top of that fill. That allowed all traffic to be moved to what will eventually be the eastbound lanes while work is being performed on the eventual westbound lanes. “The biggest milestone happened in October when they did the traffic switch,” Jewel said. Once the northern lanes are completed the segment from Mission Road to Gird Road will also be a fourlane highway. “It will just be two lanes from Mission to Gird for most of next year,” Jewel said. The work also includes improvements to the park-and-ride on the northwest corner of Highway 76 and Old Highway 395. The parkand-ride itself will be expanded, the grade will be flattened, truck parking and a bus terminal will be added, and the improvements will also include lighting and charging stations for electric vehicles. During 2015 work began on cutting the slope. “They’ve now hit some harder rock and they’re putting together a blasting plan,” Jewel said. “That will probably happen in early 2016.” Due to environmental constraints based on habitat breeding seasons, vegetation clearing and pile driving are allowed only between midSeptember and mid-February. River flow issues require any work within the river to be performed between May and October. During 2015 the contractor and subcontractors began the bridge over Live Oak Creek. “The abutments are now done,” Jewel said. The widening includes an

Continuing a plan to bring more healthcare services to town Gordon Tinker President, Board of Directors Fallbrook Healthcare District

The year 2015 for Fallbrook Healthcare District (FHD) was as challenging as 2014. It was a continuation of the district’s challenges to determine and develop a path and plan for healthcare accessibility within the community without a hospital. Fallbrook Hospital had served this community for well over 50 years. It held a history of a facility and staff, committed to birthing babies, serving chronic, acute and emergency medical needs on an in- and out-patient basis from diagnostic, surgical, and medicinal perspectives as well as therapies, rehabilitation, and education to restore well-being to the highest possible level. Then, its doors closed. It was not a question of quality of care, it was a matter of impact of changes within healthcare that stemmed from managed care concepts, practices, and contracts that placed and held our hospital and many throughout the state and nation in precarious financial position. The impact on the community was devastating, frightening, and saddening. Concerns brought to the attention of board members were abundant. Early in 2015, there were two questions raised as a pressing need by people of the community: What do we do in an emergency? What’s going to happen to the Skilled Nursing Facility? Later questions raised: What is going to happen to the hospital building – how will it be used? Emergency rooms, under state law, must be directly affiliated with a hospital – FHD could not have a standalone emergency room. So the district sought and developed a contractual relationship with

an extended hours urgent care center that opened its doors in April. A+ Urgent Care, located at 617 Alvarado Street provides service 365 days a year with weekday hours 8 a.m. to midnight; weekend hours 9 to 5 and holidays 9 to 5. When indicated by patient condition, they call upon 911 for emergency transport to a hospital equipped to address the emergency. Red emergency 911 phones were installed in three entrance locations at the hospital in the event someone unaware that the hospital was closed went there seeking assistance. These phones are direct-dial to dispatchers of emergency assistance for transport. The Skilled Nursing Facility, located at 325 Potter Street, remained operational serving its patients while a new operator was defined and appropriate licensure was obtained. This process took several months and was finalized on July 20. It is fully operational under new management as a free-standing facility serving the medical and therapeutic needs of its patients and residents. The question of what’s going to happen to the hospital building and campus is being addressed through district exploration of multiple options. Representatives of several and varied entities have met with members of the board and staff to tour and discuss structure, equipment, and contents as well as medical and behavioral health service potential. A broker has been engaged to search for interested parties. Attention is being paid to maintenance of the buildings, equipment, and campus through engagement of a building engineer, landscaper, and security patrol. Local law enforcement supports efforts to safeguard the physical integrity of the campus buildings. The district’s administrative office has relocated to the 138 South Brandon Road building (former Wellness Center) occupying the second floor. Through committed effort of the staff, the district has

continued its community healthcare programs such as the PSA screening and the grant program as well as having established a Woman of Wellness Program and contributed collaboratively in health and wellness programs of other agencies of the community. Accountabilities in the arena of financial management, compliance with state and county regulation, and governance have also been maintained. Matters relative to the termination and settlement of the agreement between the district and the former hospital operator, Community Health Systems, are being addressed and brought to resolution between the parties. It is a long and arduous process. Looking ahead, the district intends to continue its efforts to restore and maintain healthcare services within the community in a manner and quality that is embraced by the physicians and residents of the community. It has completed a community healthcare needs assessment and will be studying it over the next few months. It will be used to understand needs of the community and develop programs and services that address the needs and be proactive in education and preventive programs to serve today and into the future for a healthier community for all generations. Vi Dupre, administrator of FHD for 11 years is retiring, Jan. 4. We will miss her dedication, networking skills, and her collaboration with numerous organizations. Well-qualified and experienced, Bobbi Palmer has been contracted to the position. Palmer worked as executive director for a similar healthcare district in Northern California and understands and embraces the importance, value, and accountabilities of healthcare districts. She will bring energy and new perspective to the position. To c o m m e n t o n t h i s article online, visit www. thevillagenews.com.

OPINION Some government agencies are here to help

Assemblymember Marie Waldron AD 75 (R) One of the major joys in serving as an Assemblymember lies in assisting constituents in their dealings with state agencies. Now that the end of the year is approaching, it’s a good time to remember some of the ways my office has assisted residents of the 75th Assembly District over the past year. Sometimes, we have been able to help keep people in business; sometimes, we’ve helped keep them alive. For example, one recent case involved overcoming red tape that was preventing a seriously ill patient from receiving a life-

saving transplant. Fortunately, we succeeded in cutting the red tape so the transplant could proceed. With agriculture such an important part of our local economy, I was happy to help a North County ranch seeking an outside source of irrigation water after its wells ran dry. Another case involved a shipment of plants bound for a local nursery that was needlessly blocked at California’s port of entry, potentially costing the company thousands. In still another case, my office assisted local landowners who were attempting to resolve a vexing housing issue involving conflicting state and county regulations. I’m happy to report these issues have all been resolved. Other cases handled over the past year have included DMV licensing, EDD benefit payments, state disability, incorrect bills from the Franchise Tax Board, licensing for nursing and other professions, and a case involving Department of Justice roadblocks preventing a legitimate firearms purchase. Please keep my district office in mind when you have concerns involving a state agency or department. My office can be reached by calling (760) 4807570 or email Assemblymember. waldron@assembly.ca.gov. My office is truly here to help.

Let’s try to live up to their standards As the last sounds of 2015 fade, let us remember some great men (and a woman). Let us remember John Darling, old car and tractor collector and veteran of nearly 25 years in cardiac rehab at our hospital and a congenial friend to all. Let us remember Michael Roche, the epitome of class and the source of many stories of wartime Canada and his long advertising career. Let us remember Wilbur Smythe, aircrewman in Torpedo Squadron 10 aboard two aircraft carriers in WWII, for his enduring devotion to his wife, his beautiful pigeons,

and his stubborn determination to maintain good health and life. Let us remember Ned Daily, one of the Chosin Few, volunteer at the hospital and other community projects and a man of great heart and goodness. Let us remember the intrepid Hedwig (Hedi) Roripaugh, veteran of the WACS in WWII, early employee of Earle Stanley Gardner and pioneer ranchwoman and mother on the Vail Ranch. But we need not say goodbye. Let us just try to live up to their standards in 2016 and beyond. John Watson

On the weekend before Christmas, my family gathered from far and wide to celebrate my 80th birthday. We had a grand reunion on that Saturday. Sunday afternoon a group of us went to River Village in Bonsall. We ate at Village Pizza then crossed the street to attend the movies. Our guys selected “Star Wars, the Force Awakens.” It was too loud and too active for me, so my daughter-in-law, Sandi, accompanied me to see “Sister, Sister.” We settled down in back row seats with jumbo drinks and an oversized bucket of popcorn. The movie was a disappointment! The two leading actresses smothered us in filthy language, words that

Re: Military exercises should require a permit [Letter, Village News, 12/17/15] I love seeing the ocean and the open space driving on the I-5 through Camp Pendleton.

When we moved to Fallbrook five years ago, we signed disclosures acknowledging activities at Camp Pendleton, nuclear risks of San Onofre, and earthquake and fire dangers associated with living here.

I loved shopping in the Friendly Village I finally made time to shop Fallbrook and loved it! I grew up in Fallbrook but now live in Oceanside and rarely shop inland. My mom and I made holiday plans to buy Christmas gifts from the Friendly Village. So on Monday, (yes a Monday, some stores were closed) Dec. 14, we found things to buy at every store and actually had fun shopping ( I must say I don’t enjoy shopping). So a thank you to the following awesome stores with unique gifts: The Spoiled Avocado, Mimi’s Boutique, Retro Candy & Toys, Fallbrook Art Center, A Stone’s Throw, and Simply Vintage. We lunched at Dominick’s! And I must add I also enjoyed viewing the hanging Holiday Banners of family business names – something the Fallbrook Chamber does.

continued without stopping. We left the scene early and got permission to hop into another show which was about whale hunters. It was cold in there, so again we moved to join our family in “Star Wars.” Along the way, I missed my purse. It must have dropped, moving from one show to another, while juggling our refreshments. On our hands and knees, using a penlight we searched every room unsuccessfully. Guess what? Someone had found it and turned it in at the front counter. God had sent me an angel. Whoever you are, I am most grateful. Thank you for making my season bright. Sylvia King

Kelsey Fahy is one of the newest members of the Damekor but has sung in the renowned St. Olaf Choir and also plays the viola. Other members of the group played flutes, cello, violin, hand bells, piano, guitar, harp, and accordion during the group’s concert on Dec. 14.

Warming up their voices for the Scandinavian Christmas concert at Pala Mesa Resort are, from left, Rose Dunlop, Pat Hensley, Paula Jellum Basquez and Darcie Dulop. The concert included 24 songs and the reading of the Christmas story (Luke 2:1-19) in Norwegian by Mette Gaal.

Pet of the Week FALLBROOK – Diesel is a wonderful gray, male pit bull. He is neutered and microchipped and up to date with shots. He is housetrained and good with most other dogs, but can’t go with cats. He loves to go for walks and be petted. Is absolutely a great companion in any family. Who can give this sweetheart a good forever home, a good start for 2016? Diesel can be visited at the Fallbrook Animal Sanctuary at 230-232 Aviation on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, or Saturday from 1 to 4 p.m. The Fallbrook Animal Sanctuary (FAS) is also in need of volunteers that help walk the dogs (they will give the dog a little bit quality of life and it is good for their own health too to be out in the open air and have some exercise!), help cleaning the kennels or help cleaning in the cat areas. Also foster homes are needed badly. Contact FAS for more information, (760) 685-3533.

Paramedic calls up 13 percent; grant to provide more staf fing Stephen Abbot t Fire Chief, North Count y Fire

Fire Chief Stephen Abbott The events of 2015, namely the closure of Fallbrook Hospital, will prove to have significantly influenced 2016 for North County Fire Protection District (NCFPD). Over the last year, we have experienced a 13 percent increase in calls for paramedic services over the previous year. While the district has been able to cover the vast majority of these calls for service, we have had to rely upon ambulances from surrounding agencies to cover some of them since our turn-around time from the surrounding hospitals has nearly doubled. Naturally, this doubling of ambulance mileage and utilization has also significantly increased wear and tear on our ambulances, for which the fire department will be seeking assistance. Fortunately, with the impending automatic aid agreement between all fire agencies within Northern San Diego County we will soon have even greater resources to draw upon, albeit from a greater distance. It is noteworthy to add that such an agreement

which allows for sharing of all resources is special, in that historically many communities across the nation have been reluctant to share paramedic resources. This year, NCFPD was also awarded a $1.1M SAFER grant for supplemental staffing that will allow us to staff a third ambulance on a 24/7/365 basis for the next two years. It will also allow the district to experiment with different deployment models from our six fire stations, which might also include addition of a paramedic squad to areas that would benefit from augmented paramedic services. Optimally, with the success of the community paramedicine trials currently in progress across the state (which allow for expanded scope paramedics), we will be keeping an eye toward creating a similar program locally once sufficient partnerships and funding are established. Nationally such programs have been shown to reduce overall healthcare costs by giving people greater access to health services through additional treatment and transport options prior to their health conditions becoming lifethreatening, which heretofore has been the model upon which traditional paramedicine was based. As the drought persists throughout California, as in prior years, the district will be seeking funding via the State Responsibility Area Fire Prevention Fund (SRAFPF)

Grant Program to bolster hazardous fuel abatement programs, which are funded by the “State Fire Prevention Fee” paid by property owners within State Responsibility Area of our jurisdiction. Even in the absence of such grant assistance, it is vitally important for all residents to maintain proper fuel modification (to include ornamental landscaping) around their homes as the severe, persistent drought conditions have nearly halved the time it takes for vegetation to become primed for fire propagation. As we will be enjoying additional staffing for the next two years via the SAFER grant, these personnel will be dedicating a portion of their time to home inspections that include evaluation of hazards such as this, as well as continuing with the elderly fall hazard reduction program in conjunction with the Foundation for Senior Care. Finally, I am personally very excited to be taking over for Chief Metcalf after nearly 13 years under his leadership. We have a very talented, dedicated, and cohesive team and enjoy wonderful support from our board of directors and the communities we serve. I am personally very committed to build upon the legacy of community partnerships we have established to further areas where our missions align.

Shane Gibson photo Ken Seals photo In January of 2015, Fallbrook Healthcare District honored Ramiro Gonzalez and Teddie Borges as the 2015 Healthcare Heroes of the community. Gonzalez was selected based on the comprehensive care he has provided to his parents and Borges was recognized for her many contributions to the Adult Daycare Center operated by the Foundation for Senior Care.

In early 2015, two class action complaints were filed on behalf of stockholders of Calavo Growers, Inc. in regards to the company’s 2011 acquisition of Renaissance Food Group, LLC. Since the original filings, the court has consolidated the actions and appointed the Calavo Investor Group as lead Plaintiff. An amended complaint was filed in October, and the next court action is expected to be announced in February.

Located at 5906 Olive Hill Rd., near the intersection of State Route 76, the new, 8,900 sq. ft. station won an award for its design.

In February of 2015, the Fallbrook High School boys rugby club won its league championship with a 33-20 victory over Torrey Pines. “I think the difference for us is that our boys have been playing the sport since they were little guys,” said Mike Majewski.

Fallbrook gained 47 acres of highly desirable open space in 2015 when the Fallbrook Land Conservancy purchased property in the Gird Valley overlooking Fallbrook Golf Club. Named the Gird Valley Preserve, the cost was $437,500.

HEALTH Obesity epidemic could be explained by people consuming 100 to 150 calories more than they need each day Trudy Lieberman Special to the Village News Not long ago my husband showed up with a sandwich for lunch that he bought at a local supermarket. I thought it was going to be our usual: turkey and provolone with lettuce on a hard roll, always plenty for both of us. At $6.50, how could you go wrong? This time the sandwich was different. It now cost $9.50 and was piled high with turkey and cheese on a roll that was much bigger than what we were used to. In short, it was awful – enough meat and cheese for four people on squishy bread that tasted more like a morning sweet roll. But the bigger serving probably looked like a good deal to a lot of people who thought only about size relative to cost and nothing about size or cost relative to calories. After surgery on the sandwich,

the two of us ate some of it and saved slices of the meat and cheese for later. My guess is most buyers would have eaten the whole thing believing they were getting great value for the money. Maybe they were, but they were also getting at least half the calories most of them needed for the day. Take the calories we consume at breakfast and dinner, plus a bunch of Cokes and other sweet drinks we sip through the day, and that sandwich likely would put people well over their ideal daily caloric intake. Too many calories, as we all know, leads to obesity and serious health complications. The picture isn’t pretty. According to the National Institutes of Health, more than two-thirds of adults are overweight or obese and more than one-third are obese. Yet if we connect the dots, we see more

and more of this money-for-value proposition in the foods we buy away from home, which prompts us to consume more calories than we need. An average American eats about one-quarter of his or her calories from chain restaurants, says Margo Wootan, the national nutrition director for the advocacy group Center for Science in the Public Interest. Think about how many times you want a Coke in the afternoon. I do, but I won’t pay for a 16- or 20-ounce soda. It’s way more than I can drink, and for me a waste of calories at any price. But if it seems like we’re getting more for less money, people will probably drink more. Would our collective behavior

change if the food we eat outside our kitchens came with calorie labels that clued us in on what exactly we were consuming? The Affordable Care Act called for supermarkets, movie theaters, convenience stores and restaurant chains with more than 20 outlets to post the calories for the items they sell. The Food and Drug Administration issued regulations late last year, but the final rules have been delayed until the end of 2016. In the meantime, several localities like New York City and Philadelphia now require calorie labeling. What prompted me to take a second look at what seems a sensible public health measure was a post I read recently on the blog of the Incidental Economist where

Aaron Carroll, one of the editors-inchief and a professor of pediatrics at the University of Indiana, argued that a systematic review of all the studies done in the few localities where labeling exists showed “Although current evidence does not support a significant impact on calories ordered,” labeling is a “relatively low-cost education strategy that may lead consumers to purchase slightly fewer calories.” Carroll quarreled with the idea that labeling is actually a low-cost strategy. I tried to reach him, but he did not respond. So I phoned Wootan, who said the studies and the conclusions were based on very small numbers of participants. Besides that, she said, small dietary changes can make a big difference. “The whole obesity epidemic can be explained by 100 to 150 calories more than people need on average per day,” she said. It boils down to choices like the one we made not to eat the overstuffed sandwich at one sitting. My neighborhood Chipotle says a burrito could have 450 calories or 1,025 depending on what you put on it. The order taker said salsas had fewer calories than cheese and sour cream. Chicken, she said, was the most popular meat. Apparently customers believe that calorie-wise it’s better to eat chicken than the beef or pork options. But chicken with sour cream and cheese could pack more of a caloric hit than pork carnitas with salsa. That’s why calorie labeling is an important step toward sensible eating and better health.

Complimentary Consultation FALLBROOK – Few things can be as uncomfortable as the common cold. In their book ‘Common Cold,’ authors Olaf Weber and Ronald Eccles say the common cold has been around since ancient times. More than 200 virus strains can contribute to colds, but the rhinovirus is the most common. Colds produce a bevy of symptoms, including runny nose, congestion and sore throat, so it should come as no surprise that sufferers want to find relief fast. Colds typically last for a week or more. While there’s no cure for the common cold, according to The Mayo Clinic, there are some remedies that can help cold sufferers feel better more quickly. #1 - Rest One of the best things to do when realizing a cold has invaded the system is to get adequate rest. The body’s immune system works overtime to combat the cold virus, and restricting activity can help it direct efforts where they’re needed most. Keep away from strenuous activities, and spend more time relaxing or sleeping to let the body do its job. #2 - Hydration Consuming plenty of clear fluids can reduce congestion and ensure that a person does not get dehydrated. Plus, warm beverages can be soothing to an irritated throat. Avoid coffee, caffeinated sodas and alcohol, which can exacerbate dehydration. #3 - Saline rinses Intra-nasal saline sprays, neti pots and similar products can help loosen mucus that is clogging the nose and sinus cavities, allowing it to flow out. This makes blowing one’s nose more effective and may help prevent post-nasal drip. Avoid prolonged use of medicated decongestant sprays. They may work well, but they can cause rebound congestion that’s worse than the original stuffiness. #4 - Vitamin C Vitamin C will not prevent colds, but it could help in other ways. Taking vitamin C before the onset of cold symptoms may shorten the duration of symptoms. Vitamin C also may provide benefits for people at high risk of colds due to frequent exposure, offers The Mayo Clinic. #5 - Soup and tea Soup is an easy-to-digest meal that provides many of the necessary remedies for a cold, including warm broth to hydrate and soothe, antioxidant-rich vegetables and protein to help fuel the body’s recovery process. In 2000, Dr. Stephen Rennard of the Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha actually tested if chicken soup clinically makes people with colds feel better. He found that chicken soup inhibited neutrophils, immune cells that cause congestion. Decaffeinated tea also may help one stay hydrated and relieve many cold symptoms. #6 - Re-infection Use cleaning products that are effective at killing viruses around the house to prevent re-infection and cold relapses. Also, avoid touching your nose, eyes and

mouth between hand-washings to keep germs at bay. Colds can be a nuisance. Most medicines will help relieve symptoms, but cannot make colds go away faster. Natural remedies can help the body’s immune system work at its best and lessen the severity of a cold.

Of fering free programs, resources for local residents Scot t Murray President, Board of Directors Mission Resource Conservation District

Scott Murray Mission Resource Conservation District (MRCD) was founded in 1944 to assist local property owners with the conservation of soil and natural resources on their land. Since its formation, MRCD staff has worked with hundreds of local property owners and managers to assist them in setting priorities, implementing best management practices, complying with local, state and federal regulations, and keeping their land, livestock and surrounding environment productive and healthy for the long term. All of MRCD’s programs are free to the participants. In 2015, the district was active in the community and helped numerous property owners by offering conservation plans, agricultural and residential irrigation evaluations, workshops, and invasive plant removal. Looking forward to 2016, MRCD is excited to offer similar programs as well as adding several new services and moving to a new, downtown Fallbrook location. The El Nino weather event is expected to bring muchneeded rain to Southern California but, despite the forecast rain amounts, it is unlikely to end the prolonged drought. Water conservation is still critical to conserving the region’s limited and strained water supply. MRCD can assist residential property owners with water conservation efforts through its WaterSmart Checkup program. During a Home Water Use Evaluation, one of MRCD’s certified Landscape Auditors will make site specific indoor and outdoor water conservation recommendations. Agricultural properties with one or more planted acres of crops or potted material can receive an irrigation system evaluation to determine if system improvements can be made to increase the efficiency of the system as well as help conserve water. Residential properties with resource concerns such as erosion, animal pests, and weeds can benefit from a conservation plan. Conservation plans are aimed at helping property owners manage their land in a productive and sustainable fashion by recommending best management practices to tackle resource concerns. A certified conservation planner will walk the site with the property owner and discuss what is concerning the property owner. The conservation planner will recommend solutions to manage, control, or eliminate the concern, and return a detailed report to the

property owner. Agricultural and residential properties can take advantage of the MRCD’s low-cost soil and water-testing program. MRCD can test soil and nonmunicipal (well or pond) water for various nutrients. Soil and water analysis is a useful tool for large and small scale growers to assist them in determining what, if any, amendments are necessary for a productive operation. MRCD also manages the Santa Margarita and San Luis Rey Weed Management Area in which invasive plant species, such as Arundo donax and Tamarisk spp., are treated and controlled to prevent further spread. Management of invasive species at a watershed wide level not only improves habitat for native species and increases the aesthetic value of our riparian areas, but reduces flooding and fire potential as invasive plants can alter the natural hydrology of the waterways and increase fuel loads. Public education and outreach is also a critical element to helping property owners and managers successfully manage their properties. In addition to developing educational materials, MRCD has, and will continue to host workshops covering a wide range of topics. The workshops are always free to anyone who is interested in attending. Horse property best management practices, septic system care and maintenance, landscape irrigation systems, replacing lawn areas with low-water use plants, best management practices for residential properties to prepare for the El Nino winter and spring, integrated pest management, composting livestock and backyard waste, and agricultural related issues are just some of the topics for the workshops MRCD has hosted in the past few years. In 2016, a rain barrel installation workshop and another best management practices workshop relating to the El Nino storm events are just a couple of the workshops that will be hosted by MRCD. To find out more about upcoming workshops, as well as download presentations and workshop materials from past MRCD workshops, please visit www.missionrcd. org/residential/workshopmaterials/. MRCD is looking forward to continuing to help property owners and managers ensure that their properties are successful and healthy in 2016. Anyone with questions or concerns is welcome to call and discuss with staff at (760) 728-1332, or visit the office at 1588 South Mission Road, Suite 100, Fallbrook. Please keep checking the website to know when the office will move to its new location in downtown Fallbrook! To c o m m e n t o n t h i s article online, visit www. thevillagenews.com.

The many ways to make potatoes tasty Lucette Moramarco Staff Writer

Potato dishes are popular all over the world from French fries and hashbrowns to pierogi (Polish dumplings) and shepherd’s pie, from latkes (potato pancakes) and lefse (potato flat bread) to scalloped or gratin potatoes. My favorite version of potatoes is the ham and potato casserole my mom used to make with leftover ham. We didn’t usually have any leftover potatoes but there are several recipes that can use whatever kind of potatoes you may have left after a meal. The easiest way to use baked potatoes is to make potato skins for an appetizer or twice-baked

potatoes, both call for toppings of cheese, bacon bits, and onion. While some recipes call for raw potatoes, some cooks make due with leftover cooked potatoes. Just about any potato dish tastes good with sour cream or cheese so the creative cook can make any kind of potato taste good, and using mashed or whipped potatoes in a potato soup is workable. I am lactose intolerant so I am still trying to figure out how to make a loaded baked potato soup that I can eat. I can eat cheese so loaded baked potato skins are a better option for me. They are a good to make when you have extra baked potatoes, and you can use the potato you scoop out of the skins to make a soup or potato

pancakes. Potato pancakes, sometimes called latkes, are popular in Britain and Ireland. There are recipes for Swedish, Polish and Czech pancakes while making latkes for Hanukkah is a Jewish tradition. When I taught preschool, I liked to do cooking projects with my pre-K students which included making latkes in December. I usually used a boxed mix, but one year I got ambitious. I peeled potatoes and the kids helped grate them so we could make latkes from scratch. The results, served with applesauce, were pretty good. They can also be topped with sour cream and chives. Here are some good recipes for making potatoes tasty.

Crock Pot-Style Loaded Baked Potato Soup By Debber on www.food.com

Prep Time: 15 min. Total Time: 5 hrs 15 min. Serves: 6-8 Yield: 2 cup servings Ingredients 6 large baking potatoes, peeled, cut in 1/2 -inch cubes 1 large onion, chopped 1 quart chicken broth 3 garlic cloves, minced (or pressed) 1/4 cup butter 2 1/2 teaspoons salt 1 teaspoon pepper 1 cup cream or 1 cup half-and-half cream 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese 3 tablespoons chopped fresh chives 1 cup sour cream (optional) 8 slices bacon, fried and crumbled Cheese, grated, for sprinkling

Directions Combine first seven ingredients in a large crock pot; cover and cook on high for 4 hours or low for 8 hours (potato should be tender).

Potato Latkes are usually served with sour cream or applesauce. Yield: Makes 12 to 16 latkes Active Time: 45 min Total Time: 45 min Ingredients 1 pound potatoes 1/2 cup finely chopped onion 1 large egg, lightly beaten 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 to 3/4 cup olive oil Accompaniments: sour cream and applesauce Preparation Preheat oven to 250°F. Peel potatoes and coarsely grate by hand, transferring to a large bowl of cold water as grated. Soak potatoes 1 to 2 minutes after last batch is added to water, then drain well in a colander. Spread grated potatoes and onion on a kitchen towel and roll up jellyroll style. Twist towel tightly to wring out as much liquid as possible. Transfer potato mixture to a bowl and stir in egg and salt.

Directions Heat 1/4 cup oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking. Working in batches of 4 latkes, spoon 2 tablespoons potato mixture per latke into skillet, spreading into 3-inch rounds with a fork. Reduce heat to moderate and cook until undersides are browned, about 5 minutes. Turn latkes over and cook until undersides are browned, about 5 minutes more. Transfer to paper towels to drain and season with salt. Add more oil to skillet as needed. Keep latkes warm on a wire rack set in a shallow baking pan in oven.

Easy Potato Skins Courtesy of Amy Wisniewski www.chowhound.com

Potato Skins can be topped with cheese, bacon, chives and sour cream. Difficulty: Easy Total Time: 1 hr 30 min Makes: 16 skins Ingredients 8 (3-inch-long) russet potatoes (about 2 1/4 pounds), scrubbed and thoroughly dried 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (1/4 stick), melted Kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese (about 4 ounces) 5 to 6 slices cooked, crumbled bacon 1/3 cup sour cream 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives

Directions Heat the oven to 400 degrees and arrange a rack in the middle. Pierce each potato several times with a fork or sharp knife. Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack and bake until the skins are crisp and a knife easily pierces the potatoes, about 50 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack until cool enough to handle, about 10 minutes. Set the oven to broil. Slice each potato in half lengthwise. Using a spoon, scoop out the flesh, leaving about 1/4 inch intact; reserve the flesh for another use. Brush the insides of the potatoes with the melted butter and season with salt and pepper. Flip the potatoes over, brush the skin sides with butter, and season with salt and pepper. Evenly space the potato halves skinside up on a baking sheet and broil until the butter foams and the skins start to crisp, about 2 to 3 minutes (keep a close watch so they don’t burn). Flip the potato halves over and broil until the top edges just start to brown, about 2 to 3 minutes more. Evenly fill each skin with cheese and crumbled bacon. Place in the broiler and broil until the cheese is melted and bubbling, about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from the broiler and top each with 1 teaspoon of the sour cream and a sprinkling of the chives. Serve immediately.

Throughout the year, the Sheriff ’s Department has worked with the community to keep Fallbrook safe. There were several large events: Avocado Festival, Fallbrook Vintage Car Club Show at Pala Mesa, and the Christmas Parade. Additionally, there were many smaller events that contributed to the quality of life in Fallbrook that were also supported by the substation. Each of these events were carefully planned and coordinated with other public agencies, the local Chamber of Commerce, and other nonprofit groups to provide for a safe and enjoyable experience. This year there was an increased investment in the community by the County of San Diego. The County of San Diego Board of Supervisors funded a deputy sheriff for Fallbrook High School in a school resource officer (SRO) capacity for the 2015-2016 school year. This set in motion a campus partnership between the Sheriff’s Department and Fallbrook Union High School District to provide a safer environment for the students in our local district. This was part of a commitment by the county to work with the schools to increase safety in the unincorporated areas of the county by the addition of an SRO. The commitment from the Sheriff’s Department and the members of this community is showing in the reduction of crime in the region. The Fallbrook region, which includes Rainbow, Bonsall, and Deluz, continued with decreasing crime rates in 2015. However, two of the most common crimes continue to be those of convenience: theft from cars and the theft of cars. In the Fallbrook region, the majority of the theft from cars involves an unlocked car and/or a piece of property left in plain view in the car. This particular problem could be

dramatically reduced with the removal of property items from plain view and the locking of car doors. The theft of cars is predominantly tied to leaving keys in an unlocked vehicle. A recent crime series involving theft from multiple wedding parties was disrupted by the collaborative efforts of the Fallbrook Sheriff’s detectives and the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department. A suspect had stolen gifts and money from numerous wedding parties around the area. This suspect was arrested after a failed attempt to steal from a wedding in a chapel in Las Vegas. The identification and arrest of this suspect will potentially clear numerous cases of theft from around the region. The Fallbrook Sheriff’s substation senior volunteers continue to produce remarkable results. With the support of approximately 50 volunteers from the Fallbrook region, we are able to provide support to an incredible number of the public events. They participate in planning and providing staffing for the events in the form of standing by road closure barricades, directing traffic, providing information to the public, and providing assistance to those that need emergency aid. Many additional hours are spent working with the elderly or shut in neighbors in the community through our You Are Not Alone (YANA) program, vacation checks, and fire watch patrols. In addition to providing a fantastic resource to the community, these volunteers save considerable amounts of tax payer dollars by the donation of their many hours of service. With a continued commitment to supporting the Fallbrook area’s needs, our deputy sheriffs are being trained and developed to respond to a variety of different situations and provided with tools to support your Sheriff’s Department’s Intelligence Led Policing efforts. We are looking forward to working with the Fallbrook community to provide for a safe 2016. To c o m m e n t o n t h i s article online, visit www. thevillagenews.com.

ENTERTAINMENT

Fabulous lineup comes to Old Town Temecula Community Theater in January TEMECULA – A great lineup of diverse entertainment is coming to the Old Town Temecula Community Theater in January. A sampling includes: Brittani Paiva Offered by Temecula Presents, Brittani Paiva will perform at the Old Town Temecula Community Theater on Wednesday, Jan. 13 at 7:30 p.m. “When Brittni was 11, she picked up the ukulele, it became her passion, and she is now affectionately referred to as the ‘ukulele darling’,” said organizers. “The winner of numerous awards such as most promising artist in the Na Hoku Hanohano Awards and Hawaii Music Award’s Best Instrumental Album of the Year, Paiva is known for her stunning articulation and filtering many styles of music through her four-string ukulele.

SouthBound and Company What some reviewers call “the best Lynyrd Skynyrd tribute band we’ve ever seen,” SouthBound and Company will perform at the Old Town Temecula Community Theater on Thursday, Jan. 14 at 8 p.m. “When it comes to classic rock bands, SouthBound and Company bring the best with their tribute show, ‘Lynyrd Skynyrd & Frynds,’ which includes some hits from southern rock legends like The Allman Brothers and the unforgettable Molly Hatchet,” organizers said. “With unmatched professionalism and quality, this show is sure to be the top Lynyrd Skynyrd tribute band experience around.”

According to Michael Bialas of the Huffington Post, “Her seductive soprano is pure joy, an irresistible force of nature that comes so effortlessly that it must be a gift from the gods,” organizers said. “The fact that she excels on a variety of instruments – including banjo, piano, and ukulele – makes this classically trained musician one of the most promising artists in a field bursting at the seams with candidates.” Best known for her role

as a founding member of the internationally renowned trio, The Wailin’ Jennys (which previously performed on Temecula’s stage in 2005), Ruth Moody is also an exceptional solo artist full of depth and grace, singing with an intimacy and honesty that is unmistakably her own. Cello Latino Americano On Saturday, Jan. 16, at 7:30 p.m., Temecula Presents will feature cellist Lars Hoefs in the ‘Cello

Latino Americano’ concert. “Known for his interpretations of the music of Villa-Lobos and other Latin American composers, cellist Lars Hoefs brings us a recital filled with music from south of the border,” said organizers. For ticket information on any of the concerts above, or to read about all upcoming entertainment at the Old Town Temecula Community Theater, visit www. temeculatheater.org.

FALLBROOK - The Village News, founded in 1997, has a new format starting this week. The tall tab, which used to be 11 inches wide by 16 inches tall, is now 11 in. wide by 22 inches tall. “While I have always been a fan of the tall, tabloid size we’ve had since 1997, it just made sense to jump to broadsheet,” said publisher Julie Reeder. “In addition to immediate economic advantages, it allows us greater creativity with layout, the use of standard advertising sizes for the agencies we work with, and the

REAL ESTATE & HOME AND GARDEN Supervisors approve Fire Authority lease of Palomar Mountain VFD station Joe Naiman Village News Correspondent

The San Diego County Board of Supervisors, who are also the board of the San Diego County Regional Fire Authority, voted 5-0 Dec. 15 to approve a lease between the SDCRFA and the Palomar Mountain Volunteer Fire Department for SDCRFA use of the Palomar Mountain fire station. The county will lease the station for $1 per year for a 50-

year period with the entire $50 being paid at the beginning of the lease. The county will also be responsible for utilities, custodial, and maintenance costs which are estimated at $3,700 per month. “The volunteer fire station and equipment currently on Palomar Mountain are vital for the safety of residents living in the area,” said Supervisor Bill Horn. “Much of the equipment and even the station have fallen into disrepair in recent years. This 50-year

lease agreement will allow the County Fire Authority to take control of the fire station and make improvements where needed without interfering with activities of the Palomar Mountain Volunteer Fire Department or jeopardizing public safety.” The Palomar Mountain fire station is located at 21610 Crestline Road. The fire station property itself is 3.29 acres, and the 7,098 square foot fire station includes an administrative office, sleeping quarters, and apparatus bays. The San Diego County Regional Fire Authority includes the territory served by the Palomar Mountain Volunteer Fire Department. The creation of the county fire agency initially covered territory not within the boundaries of a public agency but served by a volunteer fire department, although volunteer fire departments retained their autonomy and began working together with the paid firefighters covering those areas. In 2011, five county service areas covering fire protection and emergency medical services, including the CSA for Palomar Mountain, were brought into the SDCRFA. In 2010 the county supervisors accepted a comprehensive fire

experience

deployment study and approved the implementation plan for that study. SDCRFA staff has worked with the county’s Department of General Services to identify specific needs and prioritize projects. The lease of the Palomar Mountain property will allow the county to make improvements to the fire station when funding becomes available.

Gated Community The Terrace in Bonsall

FALLBROOK – Looking to make the next interior painting project easier? Take a look around the kitchen. Within the kitchen, a host of helpful items can be found that can simplify every step of the project, from surface preparation to paint application, and cleanup and storage, too! Here are some examples, courtesy of Debbie Zimmer, expert on home painting with the Paint Quality Institute. When painting walls or ceilings, it’s always important to clean the surface before applying the new coating. Speed up this prep work by using a Swiffer® to quickly wipe things down. Don’t have a Swiffer? Then wrap a clean, moistened rag around a mop head to minimize effort. Plastic wrap is a great all-purpose painting companion. Among other

uses, it’s the best way to protect lighting fixtures from spatter, especially when painting the ceiling overhead. Just wrap fixtures in plastic, press the plastic tight, and worry won’t be necessary about stray paint flecks and droplets. (Tip: Top quality 100 percent acrylic latex paint spatters less than ordinary paint.) Don’t have enough drop cloths to cover heavy furniture? It’s easy to purpose plastic wrap for this job, too. Press the plastic wrap down around the edges and the furniture will be safe from paint spatter. To protect sofas and other oversized items, cut apart large plastic trash bags instead and tape them firmly in place. But for safety reasons, never use slippery plastic to protect floors. When starting to paint, keep paint cans, stirrers, brushes, and similar items in an empty cardboard water or soft drink box. This is a great way

to contain drips. Also, when applying paint, keep an old, wet dishcloth or moistened paper towels handy. Either can be used to quickly pick up errant droplets before they dry and become more difficult (or impossible) to remove. Aluminum foil can be used to keep paintbrushes or rollers from drying out when one needs to take a break from painting. Just wrap the applicators tightly in the foil to keep out air, which can begin the drying process. They’ll be good to go when one is ready to resume work. During very short breaks or interruptions, place brushes or rollers inside a Ziploc® bag as insurance against accidents, especially if children or family pets are about. There’s also a role for a lint roller when reusing a roller cover from the day before or from a previous project: Run it along the nap to remove loose threads and “fuzzies” that could otherwise embed in the fresh paint or simply make application more difficult. For the adventurous souls who create their own paint color by combining two or more leftover paints, be wise and use a measuring spoon or measuring cup when mixing the hues together. And write down the “custom” formula on a piece of masking tape placed right on the side of the paint container. That way, it will be easier to produce a close match if one is ever needed. Assuming one only has a small amount of leftover paint when the project is completed, transfer it to a screw-top jar for storage, sandwiching a layer of plastic wrap between the lid and the jar before closing it tightly. The jar will take up much less room than a standard-size paint can and there will be no worry that rust particles will spoil the paint. To avoid guesswork and/or trial and error when doing future touchups, use masking tape on all paint containers to label the brand of paint used, as well as the sheen and color, the date the paint was applied, and the rooms where it was used. While some of this information appears on the paint label, it may be obscured by paint drippings, so it’s best to be thorough. As one can see, there are lots of helpful items in and around the kitchen that can make painting easier and trouble-free. What’s more, all of them are either very inexpensive, or free! So be smart, be resourceful, and make use of what is easily available when doing interior painting.

Fire Authority to utilize surplus U.S. Forest Service property

Water supply outlook is solid; protecting farmers is vital Tom Kennedy General Manager Rainbow Municipal Water District

As the year draws to an end, many people reflect on the year that has past and make plans for the upcoming year. Here at RMWD we are no different. 2015 will be a memorable year for us for many reasons. As an unprecedented drought entered its fourth year, San Diego County was well prepared, with our investments in supply reliability providing for over 99 percent of our projected demands. Our supply outlook for 2016 is also solid. Unfortunately, others in the state were not as prepared and the Governor’s executive order in April directed the State Water Resources Control Board to

mandate the confusing set of water reduction regulations that we are all wrestling with now. We know it has been challenging for our customers to see the cost of water increase with a promise of reliability only to have that rug pulled out from under our feet. A delegation from San Diego was in Sacramento on Dec. 7 to push hard for relief, but the Governor’s team appears to be dug in on their misguided regulations. In particular, they seem to be taking aim at agricultural water and want to include it in the mandatory cutbacks. Farmers in our area are among the most water efficient anywhere on in the country, so we will resist this effort with every means possible. Going forward into 2016 we have a lot of great opportunities ahead. Our strategic plan will be approved in January and this will provide a long term direction for the district. A key focus area is in water resources as it is pretty clear that imported water deliveries are becoming less and less reliable. We are moving into the next stage of preliminary design for a water reclamation plant that will ultimately

deliver about 1.5 million gallons per day of non-potable water for irrigation purposes. This will be locally produced drought proof water that will help reduce our dependence on imported water supplies. We are also working on the development of sources in the San Luis Rey groundwater basin for additional local supplies. There are a number of legal and environmental hurdles to get through, but the development of an additional local supply is in the long term interest of our community. It won’t be easy, but many times we have to do the hard things in order to prepare for the long term. I encourage any interested member of our community to attend our regular board or committee meetings so you can see some of the details that go into meeting your water and wastewater needs. We are here to serve you, so your input is valued. On behalf of all of us at Rainbow MWD, I want to wish you a fantastic holiday season and a safe and prosperous New Year!

The United States Forest Service has a Federal Excess Personal Property program which allows the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection to acquire firefighting property on loan from the federal government and also allows CalFire to loan that property to local fire agencies. On Dec. 15, the San Diego County Board of Supervisors, who are also the governing body of the San Diego County Regional Fire Authority, voted 5-0 to approve a resolution authorizing the county’s participation in the Federal Excess Personal Property program and to authorize the county’s Fire Warden to execute a five-year agreement with CalFire. “I am pleased that we will now be able to borrow equipment we would otherwise have to buy,” said Supervisor Bill Horn. “This means we can spend money in other areas of fire protection and emergency response, ensuring that our firefighters have everything they need.” The legal term “personal property” refers to items which are not “real property”, or property associated with land or a structure on that land, and the Federal Excess Personal Property program loans government property and not property owned by an individual working for the federal government. The U.S. Forest Service’s

along with additive alternatives, or clusters of locations which can be added to the contract if funding permits. Osborne Street, Eighth Street, and Rice Canyon Road are all part of the base bid. In February 2014 the county’s Department of Public Works initiated the development of a multi-year pavement maintenance plan. DPW has completed the planning, including feedback from community groups, for the first two years. The first year of the plan will consist of the work approved December 16 and an asphalt concrete overlay pavement project which is expected to be considered by the Board of Supervisors in mid-winter.

DPW prioritizes road maintenance work through a pavement management system which incorporates field review, resident and community input, and mechanical data collection to determine which roads are in need of resurfacing. The condition of a roadway determines the appropriate surface treatment; asphalt concrete overlays are used for significantly degraded roads with extensive cracking and potholes while slurry seal treatment is the preferred maintenance for roads with only minor cracking and no significant surface damage as the thinner slurry seal surface layer is more cost-effective and extends the pavement life. The work will resurface 1.47 miles of Osborne Street, 0.12 miles of Eighth Street, and 0.12 miles of Rice Canyon Road. San Diego Gas & Electric franchise fees will account for $5,000,000 of the $6,000,000 estimated cost including contingency and administration expenses while a balance in the county’s road fund will provide the other $1,000,000. The resurfacing is expected to begin in spring 2016 and be completed by summer 2016. To comment on this story online, visit www.thevillagenews.com.

Federal Excess Personal Property inventory includes trucks, tools, hoses, nozzles, generators, air compressors, personal protective equipment, aircraft, and aircraft parts. Since 1978 CalFire has acquired more than $200 million worth of Federal Excess Personal Property items with approximately 70 percent of the property being subloaned to local agencies. The loan agreement term will be from Jan. 1, 2016, to Jan. 1, 2021. The U.S. Forest Service will retain ownership of the Federal Excess Personal Property, although the California Department of Motor Vehicles title for vehicles will include CalFire and the county as well as the U.S. Forest Service. The property must be returned if it is no longer serviceable or if the program agreement is terminated. The county will be responsible for the cost of transporting the equipment and for maintenance and storage. The county may also incur some conversion costs such as allowing water tankers to be used as firefighting water tenders, and some apparatus may require painting at the county’s expense. The county would also be liable for any property damage. The county is required to maintain liability insurance for the borrowed property, and the agreement also stipulates that the county will protect the items from theft, vandalism, and weather damage.

A specific agreement for the Bonsall Unified School District to repurchase the Old River Road land which had been used for the North County Fire Protection District’s previous Station 5 was approved by the BUSD board Dec. 8. The 4-0 board vote, with Sylvia Tucker absent, authorized BUSD staff to enter into a purchase and sale agreement with NCFPD for the 0.64-acre property and authorized BUSD superintendent Justin Cunningham or his designee to take any necessary actions for the sale including expenditure of funds, execution of grant deeds, and filing any necessary documents. “What we basically did was the approval of the way the attorney drew up the document,” Cunningham said. “We still have to be approved by the fire district.” The North County Fire Protection

District’s next scheduled board meeting is Jan. 26.The NCFPD ratification will be followed by inspections and other sale-related activity before the school district regains possession of the land. “Just looking forward to tying that up, and I appreciate the help and support from the fire district,” Cunningham said. In 1981, the Bonsall Union School District sold a parcel of land on Old River Road adjacent to Bonsall Elementary School to the Fallbrook Fire Protection District for $35,000.The grant deed, which applied to successor agencies, included a stipulation that if the land was to be used for something other than a fire station, it was to be sold back to the school district for the purchase price of $35,000. A fire station and a parking area were constructed on the property. The Fallbrook Fire Protection District became the North County Fire Protection District in 1986

after merging with the county service area which provided fire protection services for Rainbow, and in 2014 the Bonsall Union School District transitioned from a K-8 elementary school district to a K-12 district and became the Bonsall Unified School District. On Jan. 30, the County of San Diego issued the North County Fire Protection District a certificate of occupancy, which allows habitation and visitors, for the new Station 5 on Olive Hill Road. NCFPD and BUSD staff had different interpretations whether the repurchase price should consider improvements made to the property. On Jan. 13, the BUSD board voted 4-0, with Timothy Coen absent, to support a purchase price of $35,000. Fire board members threatened to continue to use the old fire station rather than sell it for $35,000. A docketed agenda item for the Jan. 27 NCFPD board meeting was withdrawn, and the fire board never took an official position in favor of factoring the improvements into the repurchase price. On March 19, a 3-0 BUSD board vote with Coen and Tucker absent reaffirmed the school district’s intent to move forward with the repurchase of the fire station property. Public agency boards usually discuss real property negotiations in closed session, although any votes may be reported out of closed session. On July 28, the NCFPD board’s closed session included a decision to accept the sale of the property for $35,000. The school district has not made a definite determination on the use of the land, although it has been discussed as the location for a continuation high school. The BUSD action also directed district staff to evaluate whether a categorical exemption to California Environmental Quality Act review may be obtained. An addition to an existing school which does not increase student capacity by more than 25 percent or 10 classrooms (whichever is less) is eligible for a categorical exemption.

Varsity Warriors triumph over alumni team Hailey Tucker Staff Writer/Intern

for many years and served as the coach of the alumni team. DuPre is a teacher at Mae Ellis Elementary School, and started coaching soccer when her son was a young boy. That led to DuPre’s involvement with what was then called Fallbrook Fury, the competitive club side of Fallbrook youth soccer. DuPre coached in the Fury system for 19 years. She also coached at Fallbrook High for 11 years including four at the varsity level. D u P r e ’s s o n , G u i l l e r m o Rodriguez, a Fallbrook High graduate of 1996, was a member of the alumni team and was the starting goalie under the coaching reigns of his mother, as he often has been. “I feel humble and very proud,” said DuPre of the honor. “I’m almost speechless. I’m just overwhelmed with the sincerity of all the boys and their integrity and their willingness to work hard as players and work together.” The night also featured games between the Fallbrook High staff and the JV team, which featured 16 teachers, as well as a game between the ASSESTS afterschool soccer program team and the JV team. The soccer program has helped with the transition of students who speak little-tono English and help get them involved with a group on campus. Goal scorers for the varsity team were Audel Barrios, Yerry Mendez, Omar Becerril, and David Carbajal. The team is 3-1-3 for the season so far, and will be looking to continue a six-game undefeated streak in the Nike SoCal High School Classic Tournament later this month.

In the annual throwback night under the lights in Warrior Stadium, the Fallbrook High School boy’s varsity soccer team faced off against their alumni in a battle of skills as well as coaching. The varsity team prevailed by a score of 4-3. The game was more than just about soccer to varsity coach Jorge Rojas who said the game is really about bringing the community together and celebrating tradition, legacy, and success. “A lot of the guys coming back come from highly successful varsity teams... and we have a couple more who played at the collegiate level so it’s quite fun,” said Rojas. “They don’t get intimidated; they are actually up for the challenge.” The game is not taken lightly though, and Rojas said the team is able to get in a real match instead of just a fun pick-up game. “It’s not so much a practice match; it gets quite competitive and that is because of the competitive edge the alumni bring to the table and the way our team responds to it,” said Rojas. Other than the players on the field who were Fallbrook High School graduates, the officials for the game were also former Warriors. The members of the alumni team must be at least five years removed from their high school graduation. The team featured one player, the youngest on the team, from 2010, with the oldest having graduated in 1995. The halftime entertainment for the game was brought in the form of a birthday and honorary celebration for Laura DuPre, a Fallbrook local who has served the Fallbrook soccer community

Fitness classes can make exercise resolutions fun NORTH COUNTY – January 1 ushers in New Year’s resolution season. Among the most popular resolutions are ones designed to encourage healthy lifestyles. Despite initial enthusiasm, many people abandon their resolutions after a few weeks have passed, and that may be because they lose interest or set unrealistic goals. To remedy loss of interest, fitness enthusiasts may want to explore group classes offered by many gyms. Such classes offer a change of pace from traditional workouts while still facilitating weight loss. Here are some classes that may be coming to a gym nearby.

* Barre workouts: Inspired by the postures of ballet, dance, yoga, and pilates, barre classes blend isometric exercises with targeted strength training. The workouts are designed to give participants strong, lean and chiseled bodies. Many barre classes incorporate some free weights and a ballet barre. However, the majority of the workout relies on participants’ own bodyweight and balance. * ViPR® classes: ViPR™ is a n a c r o n y m f o r Vi t a l i t y, Performance, Reconditioning. This is a new concept in fitness developed by the company fitness professionals. The workouts are built around loaded movement training and were inspired by farm workers who moved with load in daily life, and thusly developed superior strength. ViPR™ training, according to creator Michol Dalcourt, already is being used by major sports teams, tactical military and law enforcement agencies. Movements during the workout are enhanced by a weighted ViPR™ bar. Many trainers are now earning their ViPR™ certifications as more and more classes are being offered across the country. * K i c k b o x i n g : K i c k b o x i n g

Moving forward developing our own water supply Brian Brady General Manager Fallbrook Public Utilit y District

has become a popular fitness routine, helping people to blast away fat and improve muscle tone through energizing classes. According to Fitness magazine, kickboxing can burn an average of 500+ calories per hour. Kickboxing targets many areas of the body, including thighs, shoulders, arms and glutes, all in a single workout. Kickboxing classes also help many people relieve stress. Classes may feature kicks, punches and aerial maneuvers done without any equipment, or pit participants against traditional kickboxing hanging bags. Trainers often work with individuals at their own pace to develop strength and agility. * Dance classes: Many gyms offer their own unique fitness dance classes that boast festive atmospheres while still providing highly effective cardiovascular and toning exercises. Danceinspired classes pair creative choreography and upbeat music with classic workout maneuvers to help participants shed pounds. Because routines are constantly evolving, there’s little chance of getting bored, and many dance fitness enthusiasts insist their classes are far more fun than traditional workouts.

Fallbrook Public Utility District’s focus for 2016 will be continuing to save water during the drought, and going hand-in-hand with that goal – we’re focusing on increasing our recycled water production as well as developing and expanding our own water supplies. We’re steadily moving forward with developing our own local water supply by tapping into the Santa Margarita River. After nearly 70 years of legal hurdles and water-rights litigation with Camp Pendleton, we hired an engineering company in 2014 to begin design of the Santa Margarita River Conjunctive Use Project. Key players at FPUD and Camp Pendleton worked tirelessly for years to craft a joint plan that allows both to use the river. Facilities are now in the final design phase. This is a shared project with the Marine Corps Base. Once built and completed, the river project will provide

about 30 percent of FPUD’s total water supply. This is big news as it will enable us to buy less imported water, which gets more expensive each year. Currently, all FPUD water is imported from farther away places: the Colorado River and the Sacramento Delta, traveling some 400 miles to get to Fallbrook. Proposition 50 grant funds have been secured and allocated from the State’s Department of Water Resources to pay for the majority of the project’s planning and design costs. The project involves capturing surface water from storm events in the Santa Margarita River. The water will then be stored underground, in an aquifer on Camp Pendleton. Much of this water currently flows out to the Pacific Ocean. The captured water will be stored in groundwater basins on the Marine Corps base. It will then be pumped back to FPUD. We are also expanding our recycled water system’s potential reach and customer b a s e . I n N o v e m b e r, w e completed an extension of our recycled water pipelines. We extended the system so we can serve more large users such as growers and home owners associations in the southeastern part of our

service area, to the east of Fallbrook High School. The project took 11 months and came in under budget. We also completed an extensive upgrade of our water reclamation plant on Alturas Road to ensure reliable sewer service and recycled water production. We are now in the process of connecting Fallbrook Youth Baseball and about a half-dozen nurseries to our recycled water pipeline. The new recycled line runs from Brook Road to Green Canyon Road. This area was strategically chosen to allow more agricultural customers and nurseries to connect to our recycled system and use recycled water for farming and irrigation. We s e c u r e d $ 7 4 2 , 0 0 0 in grant funding from Proposition 84 to expand the system. This will be a savings to them as recycled water costs 15 percent less than “regular” municipal and industrial rates. It’s a win for us too as it will free up more of our imported potable water supplies and provide increased revenue from recycled water sales to help offset waste-water treatment costs.

Seven Warriors earn volleyball all-league recognition Joe Naiman Village News Correspondent

Seven members of Fallbrook High School’s girls volleyball team were given all-league recognition by the Valley League coaches. Ellen Allison was named to the Valley League first team. The second team included Emma Christopherson and Chyna Southwell. Morgan Alexander, Mary Ellyn Brown, Mary Kressin, and Madison McCarty were recognized at the honorable mention level. “That was a great thing,” said Fallbrook coach Chip Patterson. “These girls did an outstanding job to get where they are.” The three Fallbrook players on the first team and second team were the most since the Warriors had three Avocado East League first-team selections in 2011. “In the past we’d only get one or two,” Patterson said. In 2011, when Peter Peng coached the Fallbrook varsity, no Warriors were chosen for that year’s second team and the Avocado East League did not have honorable mention selections. Two Warriors were named to the 2012 Avocado West League first team, although no Fallbrook players received second-team or honorable mention recognition that year. Robin Reese coached Fallbrook in 2012 and in 2013, when the Avocado West League selections included one first-team, one second-team, and three honorable mention Warrior players. Patterson took over as Fallbrook’s coach in 2014; last year Allison and Southwell were honorable mention Valley League players although the Warriors had no first-team or second-team selections. Fallbrook’s 11-11 overall record in 2014 included a 6-4 Valley League mark which placed third in the standings behind Ramona’s 10-0 figure and the 8-2 mark Mission Vista compiled. This year Ramona won the league title with a 9-1 performance, Mission Vista once again posted an 8-2 record for second place, and the Warriors earned third place with a 7-3 win-loss statistic. Fallbrook was

the only team other than Mission Vista to win a set against Ramona in league play during 2015. The Warriors did not earn a berth in the 2014 CIF playoffs but were seeded 12th among Division II teams this year; a four-game loss to fifth-seeded Otay Ranch in the first round finalized Fallbrook’s overall record at 17-13. The league matches earned the Fallbrook players the notice of the league coaches who select the allleague honors. “A lot of coaches were speaking on my players’ behalf,” Patterson said. The libero is a situational player and is considered a starter as are two outside hitters, two middle blockers, the right side hitter, and the setter. Although the libero has gained the status of the seventh starter, the first team and second team only had six players apiece. Although only three Fallbrook players earned first-team or second-team recognition, the coaches recognized four others at the honorable mention level. “That was good,” Patterson said. Two of those honorable mention selections, Brown and McCarty, are freshmen. “I was shocked that they were honorable mention,” Patterson said. “This year they were pretty dominant over a lot of the other players who are seniors,” Patterson said. “The team will be solid for the next three years.” Allison and Kressin were the only two Fallbrook seniors who received all-league distinction. Alexander and Southwell are juniors and Christopherson is a sophomore. Allison was Fallbrook’s libero, Christopherson and Brown are middle blockers, Southwell is the Warriors’ setter, Kressin played right side hitter, Alexander is an outside hitter, and McCarty began her high school career as a defensive specialist. Allison led the team with 456 digs and also had 27 assists, 56 serving aces, and ten kills. “It’s an honor that she truly deserved,” Patterson said of Allison’s firstteam selection. Ramona’s libero, senior Sydney Hickle, was also on the first team. Patterson noted that at the league

meeting Ramona coach Connie Halfaker let the other coaches know that she told her girls to keep the ball away from the Fallbrook libero. “She does well all the time,” Patterson said of Allison. Patterson acknowledged somewhat of a performance decline when Allison was battling an earlyseason arm injury. “She toughed it out and she played through it and she played extremely well,” he said. “I think she really picked it up at the tail end.” Allison’s 56 aces in 281 serves gave her a team-leading 19.9

percent ace ratio. “She outserved most people,” Patterson said. Christopherson had 181 kills, 23 aces, 50 digs, and seven assists. She had 62 solo blocks and 14 assisted blocks for a total of 76. Southwell set for 379 assists. Her statistics also included 53 aces, 51 kills, 14 solo blocks, and seven assisted blocks. Alexander was the Warriors’ kill leader with 197 and also contributed 208 digs, 31 aces, 12 assists, seven solo blocks, and eight assisted blocks. Brown had 91 solo blocks and 27 assisted blocks to lead the team

with a total of 118 blocks. She also had 141 kills, 18 digs, 11 assists, and one serving ace. Kressin had 118 kills, 36 solo blocks and 20 assisted blocks for a total of 56, 36 assists, 22 digs, and four aces. McCarty served a team-leading 74 aces and added 157 digs, 21 kills, six assists, two solo blocks, and three assisted blocks. “I’m just very proud of them and I see them going into the future doing great things,” Patterson said.

her in death on November 28, 2015 in Ellensburg, Wash. Born December 3, 1925, and raised in Yakima, Wash., Marge and Esther were daddy’s little girls. Their father, Chester LeRoy “Roy” Hines, son of Norwegian immigrants, raised the girls with their loving mom, Grace Loretta Herbert Hines. Grace, of French Canadian descent, often dressed the twins identically, innocently unprepared for girlish mischief to play out at home and school. As teenagers, Marge and Esther worked in the office at Yakima’s Ford dealership, Burrows Motor Company, where their dad became one of the top five salesmen in the U.S. They graduated from Yakima High School in 1944. Considered beauties and referred to as “The Gold Dust Twins” by classmates, they were the only students who had a car, a Ford Model A.

Beloved mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother Vera Van Gerpen died November 29, 2015 in her home in Fallbrook, Calif.

She lived a happy, caring, and beautiful life for 97 years. Her family was with her as she went peacefully into the arms of her Heavenly Father. She is survived by her daughters Tommie and Judy (Glenn) of Fallbrook; granddaughter Carrie (Chris) and great-grandchildren Madison, Mackenzie, Chase, Parker, and Peyton of Ladera Ranch, Calif. A celebration of life will be at the Fallbrook United Methodist Church on January 9, 2016 at 10 a.m. Memorials may be made to: Fallbrook United Methodist Church, 1814 Winterhaven Road, Fallbrook, Calif. 92028 or Delta Hospice of Inland Valley, Inc., 41593 Winchester Road, Suite 215, Temecula, Calif. 92590.

The Yakima Ice Skating Rink was where Marge, a figure skater, met the man she would soon marry. Jack Fellows was an ice hockey player on a local team, playing the position of goalie. Jack joined the Marine Corps, and in 1960, was stationed at Camp Pendleton. The couple settled down with their four children in Fallbrook where they remained for the next 55 years. Marge’s first job in Fallbrook was as an avocado packer when the train would come through town to pick up the avocado crates. Work that followed was for Southwest Bank, local doctors’ offices, and then retirement after working as administrative secretary for Fallbrook Hospital. Marge loved ice skating, ballroom dancing, ceramics, and making flower arrangements from her garden. With their love of ballroom dancing, Marge and Jack

joined the Smooth Dancers Club among other dance clubs. They often held dances at their home. Through the years, Marge enjoyed travel and went to Bermuda, China, Russia, Europe, and Alaska. She loved camping at the beach in her RV. Her husband, Jack Burton Fellows, preceded her in death in 2004. Marge Fellows is survived by three daughters, Connie Skoff, Penny St. James, and Wendy Huber. Her only son, Scott Fellows, died in 1975. Her nine grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren have fond memories of holidays at the Fellows family home. Picking oranges, swinging on the porch swing, and family barbecues were the norm. In life and death, Marge and Esther had a special bond which closely paralleled each other even

though they lived in separate states. The family recognized and appreciated their special twinness. They remained lifelong best friends, talking daily on the telephone, and traveling together. We will remember her smile, her warmth, her energy, her love for life, family, and friends. She displayed the unconditional love of her Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. She worked very hard all her life and made a difference in the lives of many. We invite you to join us and celebrate her life. A Memorial Service for Marge will take place on Friday, January 15, 2016 at 2 p.m. at Riverview Evangelical Free Church, 4980 Sweetgrass Lane, Bonsall, (760) 941-1430. She will be laid to rest at Terrace Heights Memorial Park in Yakima, Wash., beside her parents and sister.

Helen A. Bright, age 93 of Escondido, went home to God on December 11, 2015. Helen was born in Pittsburgh, Penn. on May 15, 1922 to Clyde and Mary Amon. She graduated from Bellevue High School in

1940. She attended University of Pittsburgh for two years before joining the USMC. It was during the war that she met the love of her life at a USO dance. She married John S. Bright on June 1, 1945. They were married only 18 years before his untimely death. She resided in Fallbrook, Calif. until 2013, when failing health brought her to live with her daughter in Escondido. Helen worked at UCSD for 25 years before retiring in 1987. In retirement she enjoyed her grandchildren, played bridge, volunteered, was a member of the Fallbrook Women’s Club and enjoyed crocheting and reading. She cruised to Alaska, the Panama Canal, the New England area, and the Mississippi river on a steamboat. Helen is survived by her daughter

and son-in-law, Jim and Penny Koed of Escondido; her beloved grandchildren, Matthew and wife Riley of Maplewood, N.J., Ryan and Kendra of San Marcos, and Amy and Cody Rolf of Escondido, and one great-grandchild, Molly Koed of N.J. She has one remaining sister, Mary Jane Sheppard of Sharon, Penn. Helen was predeceased by her husband, John Bright; her parents, Mary and Clyde Amon; her brothers, Wilbur and Harold; her sisters, Millie, Margie, and Frances. Helen will be remembered as fiercely independent, kind, caring, and generous. She was a loving mother, grandmother, greatgrandmother, and friend. She will be dearly missed. Services will be January 8, 2016 at 1 p.m. at Eternal Hills Mortuary Chapel in Oceanside.

As the holiday season is upon us, I find myself reflecting on the past year and those who have helped to shape my business. It’s been quite a year and I hope that 2015 has been just as memorable for you, our colleagues and your loved ones. I look forward to working with you in the years to come.
