By Matt Lopez The USS Iowa moved to its final destination in the Port of Los Angeles on Saturday and with it, carried the stories and memories of men who gave years of their lives to both the ship and the United States Armed Forces. Tugboats pulled the 887foot World War II-era battleship on a nearly four-mile trek to Berth 87 in San Pedro, where it will open as a museum on July 7. Bryan Moss, who served on the Iowa for 18 months during the Korean War said Saturday’s ceremony was the first time he had seen the ship since 1953. “It will always be the first duty I had in the Navy and the best duty I had,” Moss said. “The Big Stick,” as it’s often referred to, with its big guns and top speed (32 knots, or 38 miles (see ‘USS IOWA,’ page 11)

Raymond James Recruits Veteran Financial Advisor Lisa Detanna For Los Angeles Branch Lisa Detanna, a prominent Southern California financial professional, wealth advisor and a former resident of the Beverly Hills Chamber of Commerce, has joined the Los Angeles branch of Raymond James & Associates, Inc., member New York Stock Exchange/SIPC, as Senior Vice President, Investments. “I have chosen Raymond James for many reasons that will also appeal to investors seeking a financial services company grounded in core values such as conservatism, independence and integrity,” said Detanna. The company has branched out from financial planning to provide comprehensive wealth management, a full spectrum of financial services that includes wealth solutions for highnet-worth individuals, alternative investments, trust and estate planning and several money market alternatives. Raymond James has enjoyed an unprecedented 96 consecutive quarters of profitability, even through the 2008 financial crisis, an admirable feat and testament to the company’s commitment to conservatism and steady growth. The company’s corporate vision, as outlined by Raymond James CEO Paul Reilly, is to be the premier alternative to Wall Street. Its unique culture of independence gives each Raymond James financial advisor complete freedom to offer objective, unbiased advice, so they can tailor a long-term plan based solely on the financial well-being of each client and his or her specific goals. Unlike some competitors, Raymond James is not owned by a bank, but conversely has its own financial institution – Raymond James Bank. The advisor-client relationship is sacred, and there is no pressure to offer proprietary products. Raymond James pioneered the concept of financial planning in the 1960s, at a time when other firms were focused on just selling investments. Financial planning, as founder Bob James came to practice it, had to begin with listening to clients and accurately assessing their true financial needs and goals. “Client first” is one of Raymond James’ company mantras. Another core value is conservatism and the corresponding belief that discipline in decision-making translates to a strong, stable firm for clients, advisors, associates and shareholders. August 16, 2012, marks the 50th anniversary of Raymond James and its celebration of a half-century of stability and growth. While the company is larger, stronger, more flexible and more capable than at any time in its history, you will still find the same spirit of integrity and independence, entrepreneurialism and empowerment, collaboration and respect the company was founded with back in 1962.
NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING DATE: June 28, 2012 TIME: 1:30 PM, or as soon thereafter as the matter may be heard LOCATION: Commission Meeting Room 280A Beverly Hills City Hall 455 North Rexford Drive Beverly Hills, CA 90210 The Planning Commission of the City of Beverly Hills, at its REGULAR meeting on Thursday, June 28, 2012, will hold a public hearing beginning at 1:30 PM, or as soon thereafter as the matter may be heard to consider: A request for a Zone Text Amendment to Section 10-3-1618 of the Beverly Hills Municipal Code regarding parking restrictions for exercise clubs and private training centers. If approved, the Zone Text Amendment would allow for the use of shared parking facilities to satisfy parking requirements for exercise clubs and private training centers located in the commercial areas of the city. Current code requirements restrict shared parking eligibility to those exercise clubs and private training centers located in the Business Triangle area of the city, whereas the amendment would allow shared parking throughout the city’s commercial zones if approved through the issuance of a Conditional Use Permit; and A request for a Conditional Use Permit to allow the use of shared parking facilities to establish an approximately 15,000 Square foot exercise club (LA Fitness). This request is being made pursuant to the proposed Zone Text Amendment described above, and would be contingent on the approval of the Zone Text Amendment. The subject property is located at 9100 Wilshire Boulevard, and the exercise club is proposed to be established within a portion of the ground floor and mezzanine areas of the existing building. This project has been assessed in accordance with the authority and criteria contained in the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the State CEQA Guidelines, and the environmental regulations of the City. The project qualifies for a Class 5 Categorical Exemption (Section 15305 of the CEQA Guidelines) for minor alterations in land use limitations because the ordinance would not result in any changes in land use or density. The project also qualifies for a Class 1 Categorical Exemption (Section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines) for interior and exterior alterations to an existing commercial building. The project has been determined not to have a significant environmental impact and is exempt from the provisions of CEQA. Any interested person may attend the meeting and be heard or present written comments to the Commission. If you challenge the Commission's action in court, you may be limited to raising only those issues you or someone else raised at the public hearing described in this notice, or in written correspondence delivered to the City, either at or prior to the public hearing. If there are any questions regarding this notice, please contact Ryan Gohlich, Associate Planner in the Planning Division at 310.285.1194, or by email at rgohlich@beverlyhills.org. Copies of the applications, plans, and Categorical Exemption are on file in the Community Development Department, and can be reviewed by any interested person at 455 North Rexford Drive, Beverly Hills, CA 90210. Approved as to form: Jonathan Lait, AICP, City Planner

Beverly High Family Honors Joel Pressman By Matt Lopez As soon as Joel Pressman entered the Beverly Hills High School auditorium Monday night, more than 50 voices on stage started singing in unison. The music went on for more than an hour and only paused briefly for friends and family to share stories of Pressman, BHHS’s vocal, piano and theatre teacher for 37 years. It was all part of a surprise concert performance for Pressman that had been in the works for months, spearheaded by former BHHS student Rayvon Moore. Many of Pressman’s current and former students saw the surprise show as a way to honor their teacher, mentor and friend. Pressman’s friends and family went through a trying time last year when he had a health scare after doctors found a tumor. “This is so strange, it feels like I’m at my own eulogy,” Pressman quipped
Monday night, admitting to the audience he filed retirement papers with the school district before eventually realizing that after treatment, he would be well enough to return to work. “My students know we’re all on the same side and love what we do,” Pressman said. “We’re all very fortunate to have each other and our music.” Pressman enjoyed performances from Minnesingers alumnae, Madrigal Singers alumni and alumni soloists. Pressman’s father, Rabbi Jacob Pressman and brother Rabbi Daniel Pressman gave heartfelt speeches. His daughter Aviva, who brought her father to the auditorium Monday under false pretenses, presented her father with a personalized scrapbook. “I couldn’t ask for a better son,” Rabbi Jacob Pressman said. “He taught so many people to just... open their mouths.”

COPA (Continued from page 1)
Act (COPA),” would severely restrict background investigations and abolish identification requirements for jobs in California. The move comes after the federal Customs and Immigration Service announced it would not pursue deportation of many aliens caught in the United States. Filed by Assemblyman Felipe Fuentes (D-Sylmar) last year and introduced in the Assembly last month, COPA proponents claim the bill will raise more than $300 million annually in state revenue by adding 1 million tax filers who have been living in the so-called “shadow economy.” According to the Legislative Analyst's Office, the state could wind up losing millions of dollars annually as a result of the bill, instead of adding to its coffers. Because the proposed tax levy requires a two-thirds vote to pass, the bill would need bipartisan support in the Assembly to even have a chance of making it onto November’s ballot. Assembly Republican Caucus spokeswoman Sabrina Lockhart said Republicans are opposed to any tax increase, making it challenging to secure a bipartisan vote for a bill that intends to increase taxes. “We believe that the immigration problem is best resolved at the federal level,” she said. “Any changes at the state level would just create more confusion.” If the bill does pass through the Assembly to make its way onto the November ballot and curries favor with voters, Los Angeles’ top immigration attorney Carl Shusterman said it would quickly be overturned in court because it likely violates federal law. “The state government can’t make anyone legal,” he said. “I think this would be an obvious conflict with the federal law. I don’t see any way that the courts would uphold it.” The bill is the near opposite of Arizona's Senate Bill 1070 now before the United
States Supreme Court, which penalizes employers who hired illegal aliens in addition to making it a state crime to be in the country illegally. COPA authorizes California employers to evade federal labor law requirements by requiring the governor to request that the president direct federal agencies not to enforce certain immigration laws. More than 2.5 million undocumented workers are estimated to live in California. Los Angeles County alone spends more than $1.6 billion annually for illegal immigrants according to Tony Bell, spokesman for L.A. County Supervisor Michael Antonovich. Fuentes said the measure, which would require the Franchise Tax Board to tax undocumented immigrants who meet certain criteria in a 5-year pilot program from 2014 to 2018, is intended to position California as a leader in immigration reform in the wake of the congressional stalemate on comprehensive immigration reform. “With the federal government failing to act, California must take the lead on the issue of immigration,” he said. “Giving protection to hard-working people who have come to California to provide for their families is simply the right thing to do.” To be eligible to enter the program proposed under the bill, participants need to meet a five-part threshold: 1) have no felony convictions and not be a suspected terrorist; 2) know or be learning English; 3) pay a processing fee (around $20) and provide a photo; 4) not be a public charge; and 5) have lived in California since or before Jan. 1, 2008. Once registered in the program, the illegal immigrants are promised possible relief from federal enforcement and employer prohibitions. Beverly Hills immigration attorney Eli Kantor said encouraging people to participate in the program could prove challenging. “There’s a big fear for businesses,” he said. “Once you have constructive knowl-
edge...then you are subject to [civil and criminal] penalties for knowingly hiring that unauthorized alien.” Proponents admit that the purpose of the bill is to grant amnesty to illegal aliens by granting them the same rights as citizens. The bill follows adoption in California by the “Dream Act” that allows illegal aliens to attend California colleges at instate tuition rates while U.S. citizens from other states must pay the much higher “out of state” tuition. The University of California system is now turning away many legal California residents due to budget cuts. Opponents of the immigration reform bill contend that COPA would incentivize more undocumented workers to cross into California’s borders and siphon jobs away from the already tight employment market. Analysts are skeptical of the bill's logistics and question how the state would actually get the money. The bill relies on the approximately 1 million undocumented workers in California already paying state taxes through Individual Taxpayer Identification Numbers (ITINs) to participate in the program, in addition to encouraging an additional 1 million undocumented workers without ITINs to come forward. Although anyone working in the United States must have a valid social security number in order to work and pay taxes, millions of undocumented immigrants currently pay state and federal taxes through ITINs. The 9-digit taxpayer number is issued by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for those without Social Security numbers, regardless of immigrant status. There are around 12 million illegal immigrants in the country. Roughly half a million illegal immigrants come to the United States annually. Approximately 400,000 illegal immigrants are deported each year.
CONTRACTS (Continued from page 1)
the compensation increase that had long been a sticking point in discussions. The district will dole out $1.4 million in total compensation increases, retroactive to July 1, 2011 under the new contract. The district came away pleased with the new deal as well. Chief among its priorities was a new minutes cap, which has increased from a range of 1,250-1,350 minutes per week to 1,250-1,450. The minutes cap refers to face-to-face instruction time teachers can have with students. If the district were to use the full extra minutes for every teacher, it would amount to about 21 days of additional instruction. Board President Brian Goldberg said increasing the minutes cap has been some-
thing previous board’s have tried to implement for years. Mark Frenn, president of the Certificated Unit, said he was also pleased with new language in the contract relating to two new librarians in the district, teachers traveling from site to site and teachers who work yard duty at the K8s. The district also reached agreements with BHEA on new contracts for the Instructional Assistant and Office Technical and Business Services (OTBS) units. The OTBS unit received a much-desired pay increase. OTBS employees should see a three percent salary increase, effective July 1, 2012. Instructional Assistants also saw slight salary increases across the board, ranging anywhere from 50 cents to a $1.50 more per hour, depending on tenure.

proved an operating and capital budget of $415.69 million from which City staff had cut approximately $899,000 from the original proposed budget. These cuts included $38,000 from the City attorney, $146,100 from the Police Department and $100,000 from the Fire Department. The reductions were presented to the council at last week’s meeting and Bosse expressed concern over not receiving them ahead of time. In spite of these reductions, the council did approve staff

Along with the honoring of several local businesses, the Chamber of Commerce will be installing Steve Ghysels, managing director of Wells Fargo Wealth Management, as the new board president. “I love this town,” Ghysels said. “This is a passionate town, one that likes to be involved and if you’re not involved with this community, this community doesn’t want to be involved with you.” Ghysels said his goal for the chamber this year is to “ensure we continue to have a vibrant, world-class business community.” hires at approximately $163,900 annually and a parking service manager at $94,100. It also approved a $41 million capital improvement projects budget, including a $10 million public works warehouse, with an additional $200,000 to outfit room 280A with the ability to broadcast commission meetings. When City staff first presented the budget to the council in early May, they acknowledged a budget gap of approximately $5.51 million. Harrison said the City closed the gap in the budget by implementing several one time cost saving measures.

per hour) served the country proudly throughout WWII, the Korean War and the Cold War. She was dubbed the “Battleship of Presidents” for her work in transporting former presidents Franklin D. Roosevelt, Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush. Bob Despain was taken aback to be standing on the ship he nearly died trying to protect. Despain was aboard a Navy destroyer escorting the Iowa during the Battle of Leyte in WWII in the Philippines. It was during that battle the Japanese Navy first used kamikaze pilots, which attacked and sank Despain’s ship. He was at sea for three nights before being rescued. “When my ship sank, there were quite a few people who went down,” Despain said. “Being here, it feels like we brought my buddies back.” Pacific Battleship Center Museum Curator Dave Way said a painstaking amount of work went into restoring The Big Stick. He said the main effort was to repaint the entire surface of the ship. Lyle Umenhoffer never set foot on the Iowa before Saturday, but he more than earned the right to man the rails of the ship as she made her final ascent.

Umenhoffer and his crewmates were adrift at sea for five days before being rescued. “This is amazing,” Umenhoffer told The Courier. “It’s a great event–a wonderful opportunity to have this ship here.” Richard Landgraff was proud of the work he and his crew had done as he rode on the Iowa’s final voyage.

Fleiner Automotive Co. Brings Customer-Centered Service Clients Have Come To Expect From A Trusted Repair Family leiner Automotive Co., the new one-stop auto body and sales shop, offers the same service customers have grown accustomed to that comes with the Fleiner name. “When you bring your car to us, we'll treat it like family,” says Adam Fleiner. The Fleiner family has been fixing cars for more than 50 years, star ting when Paul “Paulee” Fleiner immigrated to the United States from Europe. An avid car-repair technician, Paulee worked for several different repair shops until he realized that to maintain his high-quality standards, he needed to be his own boss. When he opened Paulee Body Shop in 1956, he always considered it a family affair, employing his father, children and grandchildren. In 1980, Paulee started to explore the idea of importing state-of-the-art equipment from Europe. He was the first body-shop owner in the U.S. to import equipment and become a partner with Italy’s Universal Bench. This new automobile straightening and repair equipment made fixing cars a more standardized operation. His son Kenny, a 1971 Hamilton High grad, took the reins from Paulee in the ’80s continuing with the excellence that everyone had grown to expect from Paulee. He expanded the shop signing exclusive deals with Beverly Hills Mercedes, Ferrari of Beverly Hills, Beverly Hills BMW, Beverly Hills Honda, and Acura of Beverly Hills, in addition to
F
becoming an Independent Repair Facility for AAA Insurance. Paulee’s grandson Adam grew up hanging around the shop since he was 5. He started out in the detail department washing cars and slowly moved into the office writing estimates and helping customers. He graduated from Beverly High in 1995 and pursued a career in the culinary world working as a chef at both Spago and On Cañon. But he was always eager to learn the family trade and work with his father. In 2005, Kenny sold Paulee Body Shop and Adam continued with KNM Auto Sales, Inc. specializing in high-end and exotic consignment vehicles. “The business was named for Ken, Noel and Michael,” says Adam, “named for my father and his best friends who he bought cars with.” Adam and Kenny decided it was time for a new shop after receiving calls and emails from Paulee’s longtime clientele, unhappy that they no longer had a place to call home. “They were complaining they didn’t have a place that treated them like they were used to being treated. And that if we went back in business to let them know; they’d come back.” So their new shop has a new name, new location, new additional services, and all with the same customer-centered care. Fleiner Automotive Co is at 8932 National Blvd. For more information, call 424-288--4111 Adam and Kenny Fleiner at their new one-stop auto body and or visit www.fleinerautomotiveco.com. sales shop.

SCHULMAN (Continued from page 1)
at the 10th annual “Business Excellence & Installation Gala” in The Beverly Hilton. He will be succeeded in the board presidency by Steve Ghysels, managing director of Wells Fargo Wealth Management. “It’s been quite a year,” exclaimed Schulman, the popular general manager of MercedesBenz of Beverly Hills, whose own business has just been given the prestigious M-B “Best of the Best” dealer recognition award for the sixth straight year. Schulman said the goals set for the chamber have largely been met. “We wanted to invigorate it, bring in new leadership, and make it more relevant to both the citizens and the
more than 6,000 individual businesses inside the City.” He pointed to the hiring of Alexander Stettinski as executive director as a major plus. There has been much improved cooperation between the chamber and the City Council, which he claims had suffered strained relations for several years. Deputy City Manager Cheryl Friedling was particularly praised for the new attitude. “We are now working on the same page with the City government,” he stated. “There has also been an influx of fresher and younger members who are fully engaged in promoting business in Beverly Hills.” Schulman said that former budget problems have been solved through streamlining, the adding of 25 new members
and overall increased revenues with the result being the chamber is now financially stable. “I can’t tell how you much I appreciate the efforts of Vicky Mense, Corrine Verdery and our entire board and the chamber staff for making it all come together,” he said. He particularly saluted his predecessor Todd Johnson with whom he alternated the titles of board president or CFO for the past two years. “I’m a numbers guy and Todd was the diplomat, all of which made for quite a combination.” Besides remaining active on the chamber board and running one of Beverly Hills’ premier auto dealerships, Schulman and his wife, Marcy, have a brand new hobby–visiting Washington, D.C. to see their just-born grandson, Luke.
ROSENSTEIN (Continued from page 1)
Memorial Committee and volunteers for the BHPD. This week, he announced his intent to run for City Council in 2013. One of many important issues, Rosenstein said he is “100 percent opposed” to the Westside Subway Extension tunneling underneath Beverly Hills High School. “I believe the City Council should start coordinating with and supporting the Board of Education in its efforts to prevent any tunneling under Beverly High,” Rosenstein told The Courier. “Our community is united and I believe our leadership should be united as well. The City Council should not hesitate to say ‘we are behind the school board.’” Another major issue is the modernization of the Roxbury Park Community Center.
BEVERLY HILLS Rosenstein said he does not support plans for a larger community center with more intense uses than what is currently there, a project that up until December the council majority supported. “I support the revitalization of our community center as long as the plan respects the fact Roxbury is a community park that sits in a residential neighborhood and takes into account the concerns of the residents,” he said. The fourth-generation resident said he announced his intention to run early, giving him ample time to talk with residents about what issues are most important to them. He said he will begin walking the City at the end of the summer. “I am really looking forward to walking our neighborhoods and having candid conversations with our residents about the issues that are important to them,” Rosenstein said.

IT’S TIE TIME FOR DADDY!! Surprise! This coming Sunday will be celebrated as National Father’s Day for the 102nd time. The first Father’s Day celebration was held on Sunday, June 19, 1910 through the efforts of Sonora Smart Dodd. After she attended a Mother’s Day celebration in 1909, she was struck by how much her father, William Smart, had sacrificed for his children. William Smart, a Civil War veteran, was the father of six children. Sadly, his wife died giving birth to the sixth. Smart then raised his six children on his own. His daughter, Sonora, had the Spokane, Washington YMCA host a public celebration in tribute to fathers. The observance continued to grow in other states until 1956 when the United States Congress passed a joint resolution recognizing Father’s Day on the third Sunday in June as an official holiday. In 1972, President Richard Nixon made Father’s Day an official holiday. In 2010 the home which Sonora Smart Dodd built with her husband in Spokane in 1913 was restored and opened on the one hundredth anniversary of Father’s Day by Gerald and Beverlee Numbers. The same year the United States Congress passed a long resolution recognizing the important role fathers play in our families: ”Now therefore, be it resolved: That the House of Representatives commends Sonora Smart Dodd for her contribution in recognizing the importance of Father’s Day and the important role fathers play in our families.’” Once our two sons, Daniel and Joel, brought tears to my eye, singing: “Today, Father is Father’s Day and we’re getting you a tie. It’s not very much, it’s just our way of telling you We think you’re a wonderful guy. You say we really didn’t have to bother. But it was no bother or fuss, ‘Cause according to our mother you’re our father, And that’s good enough for us; yes, that’s good enough for us!”
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 15). You have a kind word for all you meet in the next three weeks, which starts a cycle of good karma that ripples on. August brings liberation. Your commitment to a job is so remarkable that you’ll be applauded and awarded in September. A strange turn of events leads to a colorful adventure in 2013. Libra and Aries people adore you. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll be in the mood to be close with your favorite people. Someone you love and trust will share your dreams, your ups and downs, and maybe even your lunch. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Yes, the whole world is crazy, but your part of it is exceptionally bananas now. Hopefully, this validation will empower you to laugh at the improbability of your scene. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You have a way of disengaging yourself from the role you are playing. It’s a defense mechanism that will serve you well now. You are an actor who executes the stage direction that will forward the plot. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Maybe the good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow, but that matters little to you. You do good for goodness’ sake — and because it makes your life more meaningful. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). What a relationship could use right now is a ritual, something special you do with the other person that anchors your connection. Create a new activity you’d like to turn into a regular thing. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You know how having quiet time to pursue a hobby or interest or just to relax can be a complete luxury. You may take on a responsibility to give another person a break. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Why do you always get stuck with the argumentative people? It’s because you compassionately recognize their need to feel important and in control. You use what you know to defuse their sting. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Try to assume the best in others, even though you’ll probably have to remind them what they agreed to do for you. Chances are that forgetfulness and not malice is at the root of this. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Help will make your load lighter, and people will like feeling that they’ve contributed to your world. So ask for input from your friends and trusted colleagues, and use that input as much as possible. PISCES (Feb. 19-Mar. 20). A lot of problems exist because people are reluctant to stand up and speak out against what’s clearly wrong. You’re not one to complain, but calling attention to what needs changing isn’t complaining. ARIES (Mar. 21-Apr. 19). The symbols of success are not the success itself–which consists of effort, experience, failure and recovery. Profound ideas will pop to mind about what gives your life meaning. TAURUS (Apr. 20-May 20). Having strong, intimate relationships with your loved ones is the most important thing to you now, though life doesn’t seem to be structured in support of that effort. You’ll have to go the extra mile to make it happen.

“We are thrilled to honor the British automotive industry and Aston Martin,” said Bruce Meyer, chairman. “Great Britain has a long and storied history in creating some of the most legendary cars and motorcycles highlighted by elegant design and spectacular performance. This annual event has been a tradition for thousands of Southern California residents, car collectors, aficionados and families, and we look forward to once again welcoming them on Father’s Day on Rodeo Drive.”

All The King’s Horses See King George V’s 1920 Daimler Limousine, Plus Original London Double-Decker Bus, Taxi and Micro Cars. How could the 2012 Rodeo Drive Concours be complete without a Royals’ limo, a real London bus and an authentic London taxi? It wouldn’t, so that’s what we have! Come see this year’s “star” — the 1910 Daimler limousine of King George V (left), on loan from the Petersen Automotive Museum. Daimler was the preferred car of the British monarchy from Edward VII in 1896 through the mid-1950s. Designed by Hooper, the 17-feet long and 7 1⁄2-feet tall limo is powered by a smooth and quiet 9.4-liter six-cylinder Knight sleeve valve engine running at about eight miles per gallon. Willys-Knight in America (the maker of the Jeep) bought the massive car. Why? To advertise how great was its “sleeve valve” engine, which Willy’s helped pioneer. Willys reportedly donated the Daimler to the Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History in 1930. The museum eventually sold it to noted collector the late Lindley Bothwell (the very first USC Yell King!). The late Margie and Robert E. Petersen bought it in 2006 after Bothwell died. ALL THE KING’S HORSES — One of this year’s “star” cars will be a 1910 Daimler Limousine, used by His Majesty King George V of England, courtesy of the Petersen Automotive Museum. Daimler was the preferred car of the British monarchy, from the time King Edward VII first rode in one in 1896, through the mid-1950s.
2012 MONTEREY AUCTION PREVIEW — In keeping with the 2012 British theme, RM Auctions will feature this incredibly fast 1924 Bentley 3/8 Litre “Hawkeye Special.” The RM display will also feature a fully restored, award-winning 1950 Aston Martin DB2 and a well-documented and highly desirable 1964 Shelby Cobra 289. All cars will be on the auction block Aug.17-18 in Monterey.
1928 BROUGH SUPERIOR MOTORCYCLE SS-100 — guaranteed in writing to do 100 mph will be the highlight of the Concours’ Motorcycle exhibit. Dubbed by the press “The Rolls Royce of Motorcycles” because of its high quality and consequent high price. Lawrence of Arabia owned seven Broughs, and met his demise riding one. Purchased in 1928 by the Dunlop Rubber Company to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the company founding, this sample was used for publicity purposes and tire testing. It is one of 20 surviving SS-100 machines produced in 1928.
The 57 HP limo made its debut as a show car at the 2011 Pebble Beach Concours. JoinIng the royal auto is an authentic British double-decker bus and a genuine London taxi, courtesy of the Michael Harper-Smith Collection. The Michael Malamut Collection brings its collection of British micro-cars as well.

NOTICE OF TRUSTEE'S SALE TS No. 090170126 Title Order No. 09-8-530342 APN No. 5529-001-047 YOU ARE IN DEFAULT UNDER A DEED OF TRUST, DATED 08/02/2004. UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDING AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. Notice is hereby given that RECONTRUST COMPANY, N.A., as duly appointed trustee pursuant to the Deed of Trust executed by ANATOLI KOUZINE, A MARRIED MAN AS HIS SOLE AND SEPARATE PROPERTY, dated 08/02/2004 and recorded 8/10/2004, as Instrument No. 04 2051958, in Book , Page , of Official Records in the
office of the County Recorder of Los Angeles County, State of California, will sell on 06/22/2012 at 1:00PM, At the Pomona Valley Masonic Temple Building, located at 395 South Thomas Street, Pomona, California at public auction, to the highest bidder for cash or check as described below, payable in full at time of sale, all right, title, and interest conveyed to and now held by it under said Deed of Trust, in the property situated in said County and State and as more fully described in the above referenced Deed of Trust. The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 1045 NORTH KINGS ROAD #201, WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA, 90069. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein.The total amount of the unpaid balance with interest thereon of the obligation secured by the property to be sold plus reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is $524,991.90. It is possible that at the time of sale the opening bid may be less than the total indebtedness due. In addition to cash, the Trustee will accept cashier's checks drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association, or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state.Said sale will be made, in an ''AS IS'' condition, but without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession or encumbrances, to satisfy the indebtedness secured by said Deed of Trust, advances thereunder, with interest as provided, and the unpaid principal of the Note secured by said Deed of Trust with interest thereon as provided in said Note, plus fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust. If required by the provisions of section 2923.5 of the California Civil Code, the declaration from the mortgagee, beneficiary or authorized agent is attached to the Notice of Trustee’s Sale duly recorded with the appropriate County Recorder’s Office. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on a property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auc-
tioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 1800-281-8219 or visit this Internet Web site www.recontrustco.com, using the file number assigned to this case 090170126. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. RECONTRUST COMPANY, N.A. 1800 Tapo Canyon Rd., CA6-91401-94 SIMI VALLEY, CA 93063 Phone/Sale Information: (800) 2818219 By: Trustee's Sale Officer RECONTRUST COMPANY, N.A. is a debt collector attempting to collect a debt.

Financial Officer.
Pay-as-you-go Capital Improvement Plan financing should account for a minimum of 50 percent of all capital improvement projects for each five-year planning period. Pay-asyou-go financing is defined as all sources of revenue other than City debt issuance, i.e., fund balance contributions, developer contributions, grants, endowments, etc. Pay-as-you-go financing should generally be considered as the preferred option. However, the potential for debt issuance that provides additional economic and/or strategic values could be considered as recommended by the Chief Financial Officer.
Debt financing should not exceed the useful life of the infrastructure improvement with the average (weighted) bond maturities at or below thirty years, unless otherwise authorized by Council.
The City shall endeavor to apply restricted funds (i.e., In-lieu Parking, Gas Tax Funds or existing Bond proceeds) to capital projects before using “unrestricted” funds. Section 4. Debt Management Policies The Chief Financial Officer will seek to maintain and, if possible, improve the current bond rating(s) in order to minimize borrowing costs and preserve access to credit. New debt issues, and refinancing of existing debt, must be analyzed for compatibility within the City’s overall financial planning and approved by the Chief Financial Officer. The review shall not be limited to cash flow analysis, potential for unexpected revenue surprises, and the maintenance of the City’s bond ratings. Annual debt service shall not produce an inordinate impact upon future operations. The Chief Financial Officer will ensure that City Debt Service costs within the General Fund should not exceed 15% of the City’s operating revenue in order to control fixed costs and ensure expenditure flexibility. Improvement District, Enterprise Fund, Parking Authority and general obligation debt service is not included in this calculation because it is paid by district property owners, service users or taxpayers and is not an obligation of future general fund revenues. General Obligation debt, which is supported by property tax revenue which grows in proportion to the City’s assessed valuation and/or property tax rate increases, may be utilized if/when authorized by voters. Other types of debt (e.g., water, sewer, and parking) may also be utilized when they are supported by dedicated revenue sources (e.g., fees and user charges) and recommended by the Chief
A ratio of current assets to current liabilities of at least 2/1 will be maintained to ensure the City’s ability to pay short-term obligations. Utility rates will be set, at a minimum, to ensure the ratio of revenue to debt service meets our bond indenture requirement (generally a minimum of 125% of debt service). In addition, higher revenue to expense rations may be needed to secure the City’s bond rating, as determined by the Chief Financial Officer. When calculating debt services coverage for internal purposes, the minimum pay-as-you-go capital expense for each enterprise fund will be considered a part of the operating costs to be covered by pre-debt service revenues. The City goal will be to maintain the required debt service coverage with this additional cost factored into the equation. Use of a 5-year budget projection, including capital project requirements, will provide assurance that all needs are considered by the Chief Financial Officer, the Public Works Commission and City Council as revenue requirements are considered. Section 5. Policies
Reserve
General Fund All fund designations and reserves will be evaluated annually by the Chief Financial Officer for long-term adequacy and use requirements in conjunction with development of the City’s balanced five year financial plan. In adhering to GAAP, the City follows appropriate Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statements, one of which No. 54 (GASB 54) addresses Fund Balance Reporting. Compliance with GASB 54 requires use of the terms below to define various components of fund balance. For future reporting of City reserves these terms shall be used to define what comprises the reserve. a) Nonspendable fund balance (inherently nonspendable) include the : • Portion of net resources that cannot be spent because of their form, and • Portion of net resources that cannot be spent because they must be maintained intact b) Restricted fund balance (externally
enforceable limitations on use) include amounts subject to: • Limitations imposed by creditors, grantors, contributors, or laws and regulations of other government • Limitations imposed by law through constitutional provision or enabling legislation c) Committed fund balance (self imposed limitation set in place prior to the end of the period): • Limitation imposed at the highest level of decision making that requires formal action at the same level to remove. For the City, the City Council is the highest level of decision making. • Resources accumulated pursuant to stabilization arrangements would fit in this category only if the arrangement is specific regarding the circumstances when spending would be permitted, and those circumstances would need to be of a non-routine nature. d) Assigned fund balance (limitation resulting from intended use)consists of amounts where the: • Intended use is established by the body designated for that purpose (City Council), • Intended use is established by official designated for that purpose. For the City, the City Manager is the designated official e) Unassigned fund balance (residual net resources) is the: • Total fund balance in the general fund in excess of nonspendable, restricted, committed, and assigned fund balance • Excess of nonspendable, restricted, and committed fund balance over total fund balance It is a goal of the City to obtain and maintain a general operating reserve in the form of cash, of at least 40% of operating revenues. The first 25% shall be considered a contingency reserve to cover normal seasonal cash flow variations, as well as unforeseen emergency or catastrophic impacts upon the City. Funds in excess of 25% may be used for short term economic investment in the community when justified by projected financial return to the City and specifically authorized by the City Council, upon recommendation of the Chief Financial Officer. In addition to cash specifically maintained in the General Fund, we recognize the following cash reserve resources as being available to meet sudden negative fiscal impacts in the short term: • Capital Assets Fund (Fund 8) • Equipment Replacement Fund (Fund 40) • Information Technology Fund (Fund 41) • Cable Television Fund (Fund 42)
• Reprographics/Graphics Fund (Fund 43) • Employee Benefits Fund (Fund 44) • Liability Self-Insurance Fund (Fund 45) (only in excess of required reserves) • Worker’s Compensation Self-Insurance Fund (Fund 46) (only in excess of required reserves) • Vehicle Replacement Fund (Fund 49) One-time revenue windfalls should be designated as a reserve or used for one-time expenditures. The funds are not to be used for on-going operations. To the extent such funds are not required for current expenditures, one-time expenditures and/or capital improvements such funds should be maintained as operating reserves or used to reduce debt. For purposes of this policy, one-time revenue windfalls shall include: • Lump sum (net present value) savings from debt restructuring • CalPERS Rebates • Tax Revenue growth in excess of 5% in a single year • Sale of city-owned real estate • Pure unexpected revenues (i.e. litigation settlement) • Receipts from approved Development Agreements • Contributions and Gifts • Any other revenues the City Council may elect to designate as extraordinary
asset used. The City shall endeavor to stabilize funding by building reserves equal to the anticipated replacement cost of each asset class at end of useful life. Enterprise Fund (Water, Solid Waste, Wastewater, and Stormwater) user fees and charges will be examined annually to ensure that they recover all direct and indirect costs of service, provide for capital improvements and maintenance, and maintain adequate reserves. Secondarily, maintenance of cash reserves will provide a de facto rate stabilization plan. Rate increases shall be approved by the City Council following formal noticing and public hearing. Rate adjustments for enterprise operations will be based on five-year financial plans unless a conscious decision is made to the contrary. The target level of operating cash reserves shall be 50% of gross annual user revenues.
Contingency Reserves, to be determined annually by the Chief Financial Officer, will be maintained to offset unanticipated revenue shortfalls and/or unexpected expenditure increases. Contingency reserves may also be used for unanticipated and/or inadequately budgeted events threatening the public health or safety. Use of contingency funds shall be approved at recommenSufficient reserves shall dation of the Chief be maintained in inter- Financial Officer. nal service funds to prevent extended disrup- Budget Reserves are tion of service in the presented in the event of natural disas- Comprehensive Annual ters or other interrup- Financial Report tions of revenue collec- (CAFR) in the Financial tions.

The City shall endeavor to maintain reserves equal to 90% of the estimated net present value of such liabilities.

6.
Audit
An annual audit will be performed by an independent public accounting firm with an audit opinion to be included with the City’s published Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR). The City Council will maintain a standing committee of its members to serve as the Audit Committee to provide oversight and review of the annual and special audits of the City. The Committee will meet at least twice annually with the City’s independent auditor, once for a pre-audit meeting, and once for a review of the final audit results. Internal audit activities are typically identified as work plan items in the operating budget and are approved by the City Council through the annual budget process. The results of these
audits are then presented to the City Council Audit Committee for consideration and later reported to the full City Council for its review and consideration. Should conditions necessitate an urgent internal audit of a particular area not included as a work plan item, the Audit Committee will be advised and the results of the audit will be reviewed with the Committee.

BEVERLY HILLS ORDINANCE NO. 12-O-2623 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF BEVERLY HILLS AMENDING CERTAIN DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS FOR SINGLE FAMILY PROPERTIES IN THE CENTRAL AREA OF THE CITY AND AMENDING THE BEVERLY HILLS MUNICIPAL CODE THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BEVERLY HILLS HEREBY ORDAINS AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. On April 12, 2012, the Planning Commission held a duly notice public hearing at the end of which it adopted Resolution No. 1636, recommending that the City Council amend certain development standards in the zoning code for single family properties in the Central Area of the City. On May 15, 2012, the City Council held a duly notice public hearing, received public testimony, and at the end introduced this ordinance. Section 2. The code amendments were assessed in accordance with the authority and criteria contained in the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the State CEQA Guidelines, and the environmental regulations of the City. It has been determined that adoption of the code amendments would not have a significant environmental impact and are exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations. The City Council hereby finds that it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the adoption and implementation of the Ordinance may have a significant effect on the environment, as no specific development is authorized by this Ordinance, and any future development proposed pursuant to these amendments will require separate environmental analysis when the details of those proposals are known.
