CERRITOS COLLEGE PUT ON LOCKDOWN AFTER BOMB SCARE

VACCINATION BILL WITH TOUGHER EXEMPTION RULES PASSES, SENT TO GOV. NEWSOM’S DESK

CERRITOS' ECONOMIC ENGINE IDLING IN NUETRAL

BY JASMINE MARTINEZ

A suspect was placed into custody following a two-hour shelter-in-place lockdown at Cerritos College regarding a potential bomb threat on campus on Sept. 3.

The subject entered a math class at approximately 11:25 a.m., disrupting the class, as reported by a student who was present.

The campus was closed for the remainder of the day.

The subject allegedly left the room in a hurry at about 11:40 a.m. The student who reported these events did not wish to be named due to safety concerns.

Two Cerritos College police cars were stationed between the Math Computer and Informational Science building and the Physical Science and Technology building around 11:58 a.m.

Students and faculty were instructed to remain indoors and lock all possible points of entry, however, the cause of the lockdown was not made clear.

The potential bomb threat was made known via the Cerritos College Twitter account at 12:37 p.m.

Initial reports led students to believe that there was an active shooter on campus.

RAVE Alert, a messaging system that notifies Cerritos College students of potential threats to campus, were not sent out until approximately 20 minutes after the announcement via the college’s intercom system.

At first, students were unable to determine the cause of the alert, believing it to be a drill.

Student Ezekiel Brown told the Talon Marks, “ We thought it was a fire alarm and didn’t know what was happening.”

“It was both frustrating and terrifying,” said Martha Perez, journalism major, “the alerts didn’t come in until way late, it was all so slow-paced, and it seemed that keeping the students updated was not the priority.”

Following the initial threat, the class buildings alongside Alondra Boulevard, including Liberal Arts, Social Science and the Burnight Center were evacuated by campus police and students and staff were relocated to the back of the

The Summer 2019 Cerritos Quarterly Economic Profile, an exhaustive study

by Cerritos’ Advanced Planning Department, showed that the Cerritos economic engine idled in neutral in the first quarter of 2019, reporting $7.9 million in sales tax, an increase of only $1,000 from 2018 first quarter.

For the first quarter 2019, the Cerritos Auto Square generated the greatest amount of sales tax for the city totaling $2.5 million, compared to $2.550 million in 2018, a nearly $59,000 (2.3%) decrease.

Second quarter 2019 versus 2018 vehicles sales declined by 146, but the yearto-date vehicle sales are up by 75 cars.

The Los Cerritos Center (LCC) was second in first quarter 2019 sales tax revenue at nearly $943,000, a decrease of $59,000 over $1.002 million in 2018, which was likely caused by the Sears closing.

Third and fourth quarter 2018 sale tax revenue for the LCC were $1.051 million and $1.428 million respectively.

The Cerritos Towne Center was the third largest first quarter 2019 sales tax generator for the city, tallying nearly

BY BRIAN HEWS This week, the California Assembly passed the controversial vaccine bill SB 276, but immediately after the vote, Governor Gavin Newsom announced that changes would be required before he signed it even though he pledged to sign the measure in June.

The bill passed 47-17 where it headed back to the Senate, who passed an earlier version in May. Just yesterday, the Senate, under du-

ress from protesters, passed the bill on a 28-11 vote.

The Newsom changes to the measure were substantial but probably not enough to calm protestors, and will be needed to be put in another bill.

This marks the second time Newsom asked for the legislation to be watered down after he said in June that the new bill would create a “immunization bureaucracy.”

Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Norwalk station deputies responded to the 13900 block of Imperial Highway in la Mirada at approximately 2 p.m. Tuesday regarding two unattended children locked in a vehicle call. Deputies were able to unlock the vehicle through a partially open window. Both children were transported to a local hospital for assessment and later released to deputies.

DOWNEY’S RIVES MANSION TO BE CONVERTED

BY TAMMYE MCDUFF After an hour of ‘technical difficulties’ with Downey City Hall having issues with their audio visual and Wifi connection, the Downy Planning Commission finally got underway with the discussion of the controversial plan to turn historic Rives Mansion into office space.

Mansion owners Erika De La Teja and her husband had previously submitted plans to refurbish the mansion and convert the once residential home into nine commercial office spaces with the addition of a 1,200 square foot coffee shop and juice bar.

The historic mansion was constructed

by James C. Rives who travelled from Georgia to Los Angeles as a young child with his family in the late 1860s via oxcart.

He dropped out of school at age 14 to help support his family following the death of his father, a pioneering doctor in Los Angeles. The mansion was built by Rives in 1910 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Designed by Los Angeles architects Neher and Skilling, the facility was constructed in a typical Georgian revival during the Craftsman Movement and originally had six bedrooms, three bathrooms, a library, dance hall and a large water tower which stands over a retired well.

The property currently consists of the main house, the water tower and walnut drying shed often referred to as a carriage house. The property at one time included a small office building which was added in 1948.

As defined by the California Environmental Quality Act, the property is a historical resource and any renovation

or construction must comply with the Secretary of the Interiors Standard of Treatment of Historic Properties.

GPA consulting was contracted by the City to review the proposed project and ensure that the project complies with rehabilitation standards.

The three historic buildings on the site are proposed to maintain their existing building footprint but will undergo repair and refurbishing to the exteriors along with interior tenant improvements to change the use of the buildings from residential to office use.

The Mansion will contain nine offices, while the water tower will contain one small office and a restroom and the Carriage house will contain an open floor plan on both floors.

Historically correct landscaping has been approved as period appropriate.

Proposed trees include Camphor; Box/ Brisbane; Italian Cypress and Dwarf Magnolia. Plants and shrubbery will include Japanese Boxwood; Floribunda Rose and White Flower Carpet Rose which were common during the time the Mansion was erected.

Many of the residents who attended the meeting, the third meeting related to Rives, agreed that residential use was no longer feasible and seemed to be in favor of the commercial use of the historic building.

The one aspect of the renovations that did not sit well with residents and commissioners was the proposed café with several calling it an “eyesore.”

According to staff, the existing rightof-way complicated the placement of the café.

Chairman Steve Dominguez stated the café was destroying the beauty, the value, the aesthetics, and the history.

“We take a look at the property,

its historical value, the photographic rendering, I will be honest with you, if it was me I would ask myself what I am doing. If you are sincere in wanting to maintain the Rives Mansion, then why are we dealing with this retail eyesore?”

The subject of public access was discussed with the feeling that the building should provide some sort of educational and historic significance.

The Commission decided that the owners will need to work with the Downey Conservancy and Downey Historical Society to have the grounds open for tours.

De La Teja had no issue with that, indicating it was always going to be public access on the grounds.

“It was our intention to always grant public access, if the City would like to provide somebody that can schedule the

tours, we don’t see a problem with that.

It’s a landmark so I’d assume people would be curious and they’d want to see it…it doesn’t bother us.”

The Planning Commission went well over six hours finally approving on a 3-2 vote with Chairman Steve Dominguez and Commissioner Patrick Owens opposed.

Cerritos resident Jim McMahon remembered the building well, "when I was kid living in Downey, I remember how green this building grounds were.

They had lavish parties which drew large crowds of people. Parking around Rives was always full of Cadillacs, Lincolns and Continentals. The mansion was located near Downey Post Office, Paramount Chevrolet, Port Mar Restaurant and Downey Schwinn Cycle Shop. Good to see it will be renovated."

I hope that everyone had a relaxing and memorable summer with family and friends.

For our students returning to school, Dr. Mary Sieu it’s a time filled with Superintendent - ABCUSD anticipation and excitement as they prepare to reacquaint themselves with friends, to develop new relationships, and to enter the next grade

information is more important than ever.

A community with a strong newspaper is a strong community. Recent research says both readers and non-readers substantially benefit from their newspaper: cleaner government, better economy, more folks willing to run for office, better environment, lower government debt, less corruption. Newspapers create a community forum for the betterment of all.

Newspapers aren’t Uber or Lyft. It also isn’t an unfathomably complicated task to provide relief for newspaper carriers without opening the door to those who seek to exploit workers. For the past 40 years, newspapers and carriers have complied with a stringent regulation that governs when a newspaper carrier can be considered an independent contractor. This test is tough but fair, and solely applies to newspaper delivery, yet it won’t be worth the paper it’s printed on unless AB 5 is amended to recognize it. If the legislature adjourns without helping newspapers and carriers and the communities they serve by simply recognizing the stringent test that has worked for the last 40 years, it won’t kill all newspapers immediately, but it might kill some. And it will definitely be a major blow to an industry already facing declining revenues. In the long run, though, this failure of the legislature to act would be a tipping point in the history of California newspapers and the public’s right to know.

Fierro said the bomb squad would take two to three hours to arrive, but they were onsite within an hour of the initial evacuation, according to his Twitter statement.

“It’s [a] good thing we have practiced shelter-in-place [drills],” Fierro said, “it’s one of those things that you practice, but you hope you never have to use.”

But Regina Campbell, an assistant at Admissions and Records, said some felt unprepared for such an event.

“We didn’t know what to do, because we haven’t really had any drills about this sort of thing,” Campbell said.

NORWALK TO HOST RAIN HARVESTING WORKSHOP

Los Cerritos Community News - LosCerritosNews.net

PIH HEALTH SIGNS AFFILIATION AGREEMENT WITH GOOD SAMARITAN HOSPITAL STAFF REPORT

RAIN BARRELS will be available for purchase at the workshops.

BY TAMMYE MCDUFF Harvesting rainwater is a technique which has been used for centuries, but in recent years its importance has become more prominent. High water bills, global warming and water restrictions have all made rainwater harvesting more than a nifty gardening skill for those with a green thumb. Because residential irrigation can account for 40% of domestic water consumption, water conservation measures such as rain barrels can be used to reduce the demand on the municipal water system.

Rain barrels have many benefits; they divert water from municipal storm drain systems, conserve a vital natural resource, protect our ocean from runoff pollution and help you save money by reducing water bills. Rainwater is better for plants because it is free from added chemicals, such as chlorine and fluoride.

Norwalk Municipal Water, along with Golden State and Liberty Utilities, are hosting a one day rain barrel distribution

VACCINATION

Continued from page 1 tered the bill, focusing on doctors that write five or more exemptions and schools with low vaccination rates.

Under the new rules, California Department of Public Health would review and potentially reject medical exemptions written by doctors who have granted five or more in a year.

The bill would also focus on schools that have less than a 95% vaccination rate; it has been reported that 20% of the schools in California would fall under that category.

SB 276 was passed amid the worst measles outbreak in more than two decades, with more than 1,200 people diagnosed with the disease this year.

California already has some of the nation’s strictest childhood immunization laws, which require students to be vaccinated to attend public or private schools or day care.

A doctor can excuse a child, either temporarily or permanently, from some or all vaccinations if there is a medical reason to do so.

RESCUE

Continued from page 1 notified and responded. The mother of both children was detained pending an investigation.

The investigation is on-going, and there is no additional information available at this time.

Anyone with information about this

event on September 14. Customers will be given the opportunity to easily pre-order a rain barrel and pick it up from Norwalk City Hall.

The workshops will be hosted by Rain Barrels International. The company offers free water conservation classes along with rain barrel events to teach people about how to properly install and utilize a rain barrel, general water saving tips for home or garden and available rebates citizens can apply for.

The first workshop will be held at 9:00 am with barrel distribution from 9:00 am to 11:00 am.

A second workshop will begin at noon with distribution until 2:00 pm. The cost of the rain barrel is $20 with a maximum of two rain barrels per household.

You must be a Norwalk Municipal Water, Golden State Water or Liberty Utilities customer to get the discounted rate. Norwalk City Hall is located at 12700 Norwalk Boulevard, Norwalk.

For more information contact info@ rainbarrelsintl.com or call 919.602.6316.

But the bill’s supporters have alleged that doctors are profiting off unneeded exemptions, prompting lawmakers to introduce the legislation and create a state oversight program.

Under the legislation, doctors and parents would have to agree to release related health records to support their claims that their child should not get a vaccination.

The bill would also require doctors to certify, under penalty of perjury, that a medical exemption they sign is accurate.

Newsom’s proposal adds language to ensure that individual medical information released to the state is not subject to disclosure under the Public Records Act. In an interview this week, Pan told the LA Times, “This bill is about being sure the children who really need the medical exemptions and therefore can’t be vaccinated to protect themselves, they have the protection of others at the school.”

HMG-LCCN contacted ABC Superintendent Dr. Mary Sieu, who stated, "Our nurses and health clerks have reviewed the possible updated immunization equirements and will be prepared for these changes."

Dr. Sieu also indicated that, as of the end of the 2018 school year, ABC’s immunization rate was 98%.

JOHN GLENN UNABLE TO SOLVE DOUBLE-WING OFFENSE, BLASTED BY FAMILIAR COACH’S NEW SCHOOL

BY LOREN KOPFF @LORENKOPFF ON TWITTER When Jesse Ceniceros took over the Norwalk High football program in 2008, his teams dominated city rival John Glenn for seven seasons with high powered, double-wing offenses. Now, Ceniceros is with his new team, El Monte High, and the results are still the same.

The Lions walked into Glenn’s new on-campus stadium last Friday night and walked away with an emphatic 78-36 victory that was not as close as the final score indicated. Glenn trailed 54-6 at the half and could not generate much on offense. On top of that, the Eagles were losing players right and left with one injury after another, including star senior running back Edwin Udengwu.

“In no way am I going to be in a position to where I ever quit on a team,” said Glenn head coach Vince Lobendahn.

“We went down some guys; we got injured. We had to fight through it and find a rhythm. We failed to come out in the first half and showed up in the second.

But like anybody else, they see the weaknesses on mine and I see the weaknesses on theirs. And as long as we can exploit each other, where can I correct when I face another team like this? What can I do to get better at what I didn’t do in this game?”

Ceniceros went 58-28 at Norwalk with two trips to the CIF-Southern Section semifinals and an appearance in the 2013 divisional championship game. But

he said his trip back to the city of Norwalk wasn’t all that sentimental.

“To be honest, not really,” Ceniceros said. “It’s sentimental more [because] I came on these facilities that are amazing and to know that a lot of kids that I was able to coach at Norwalk High School, which were the ones out there making phone calls and going out and getting the work done so that [Measure G] bond could get passed so that the kids of Norwalk could have facilities like this. This is amazing. I haven’t seen facilities like this in a long time.”

After the Lions scored on the third play of the game-a 28-yard touchdown run from Davon Booth, the Eagles drove down the field and were in position to get a 25-yard field goal from Charlee Gonzales. However, the play turned into a fake and senior Davione Keith scampered 17 yards to the endzone. But after that, it was all Lions in few plays.

El Monte, who moved up from third to the CIF-Southern Section Division 12’s top team following the win, scored on all six first half possessions, consuming a second beyond six minutes and on 15 plays. Through the first quarter, El Monte already had 194 yards on the ground and went into halftime having gained 325 yards on 14 carries. For added measure, Abel Cueva returned an interception 54 yards for a touchdown, his third score of the half to go along with four from Booth in the first 24 minutes. For the game, the Lions rushed for 518 yards on 29 carries and eight

touchdowns. El Monte was also successful on nine two-point conversions.

“It eats up a lot of front,” Lobendahn said of the double-wing offense. “There’s one good thing about it. It’s going to gain what it’s going to gain. The bad thing is I’m a coach that likes to teach a lot more players than the running back. I like the

screen plays [and] traps. So, I don’t want to leave myself not teaching other plays.

It’s a win offense; it’s going to win.”

The second half began on a promising note as Keith returned the opening kickoff 89 yards for a score, plus a

CERRITOS BLOWS OUT FIREBAUGH IN SCHOOL’S FIRST VARSITY ON-CAMPUS GAME

BY LOREN KOPFF @LORENKOPFF ON TWITTER The Cerritos High football team stepped away from Dr. Hanford Rants Stadium on the Gahr High campus last Friday afternoon to do something no other varsity team in school history had ever done. For the first time, the Dons hosted a varsity game on campus and although the temperature at opening kickoff was 88 degrees and never changed throughout the contest, the game and everything around it was a success.

Cerritos scored on six first half possessions and added a safety in the first quarter en route to a 46-8 conquest in which a

running clock was used for the entire second half. It was the season-opener for the Dons, who produced 433 yards of total offense.

“It’s very important because one of the first things I said when I was hired was Friday nights are not about football teams,” said Cerritos head coach Barry Thomas of the home day game. “It’s about the entire school; it’s about the community. So, we wanted to do something like that for the community and for the school and generate some enthusiasm, obviously.

The players worked hard, but it’s about the school; it’s about school spirit and 10, 15, 20 years from now, nobody will remember scores, but they’ll remember experiences and they’ll remember, ‘hey, remember that game we played during the day’? It’s about the experiences that they can’t take away.”

On the first play of the game, following a 45-yard kickoff return from senior Christian Dantzler, senior quarterback Nick Lightell launched a 40-yard touchdown pass to senior wide receiver David Huh. When the Dons got the ball back, it took six plays before Lightell connected again, this time to junior wide receiver Chaz Sanchez for a 40-yard strike and just over four minutes into the game, it was 14-0.

The Cerritos defense, which was stellar against the CIF-Southern Section Division 14 team that has 27 players, posted a safety on Firebaugh’s 10th play of game as Tommy Lopez was tackled in the endzone by senior linebacker Jaden Barrett. Then on the next play, Lightell threw a 35-yard touchdown pass to Dantzler, making it 23-0 with 3:29 remaining in the opening quarter.

It all wasn’t about the pass game as junior running back Moises Vargas scored on a six-yard run early in the second quarter. The defense would have a say again in the next score, which came 14 seconds later.

Senior Gilbert Cobian recovered a fumble on the ensuing kickoff, then Lightell and Huh hooked up with an easy sixyard score. The final Cerritos touchdown came with 2:00 minutes remaining in the half when sophomore backup quarterback

David Sagun misplayed the snap from center but recovered a launched a 92-yard pass to Sanchez.

“Yeah, he sophomored it,” Thomas chuckled. “But then he got himself together. It’s not how you start, it’s how

you finish, and he did finish the play well.

The one positive that I can’t pull, before I see any of the film, is the character of our kids [and] the fact that we stuck with each other even when a mistake was made.

Guys rallied around each other and that’s

11

the important thing right now.”

The Cerritos defense, which yielded a touchdown four plays into the second half, allowed 26 yards on 29 first half plays.

The Falcons crossed midfield once in the first half, and that came on a Cerritos penalty. Because of the running clock, Firebaugh ran eight plays in the second half. Meanwhile, the Dons got a 23-yard field goal from senior Noah Garcia in the fourth quarter, capping off a 17-play drive.

Lightell completed six passes in seven attempts for 156 yards while Vargas rushed for 74 yards on nine carries. Sophomore Conner Defrain played the entire second half and picked up 50 yards on 11 carries. Huh and Sanchez each caught two touchdown passes as the Dons host Bolsa Grande High tonight at Rants Stadium.

Last season, Cerritos crushed the Matadors 68-27 as Lightell threw for 481 yards and a school record seven touchdowns.

“It was good,” Thomas said. “The score doesn’t matter, like we talked about earlier. It’s about our details and we’re going to find out what details we missed and try to improve on those. You can always get better.”

As far as if Cerritos will have another on-campus football game, Thomas said there were lots of moving parts to pull this one together. But he wanted to thank the Cerritos High administration, principal Patrick Walker, the band, the baseball team working the chains, the boys soccer team moving things around and the ABC Unified School District maintenance personnel bringing temporary bleachers, among others.

“Everybody had a great attitude, everybody wanted to see this thing go off successfully,” Thomas said. “My booster club, the sports med department, everybody…it was a total community effort.”

Glenn found the endzone again as senior halfback Erik Arias scored from six yards out. Then with nine seconds remaining in the third quarter, junior quarterback Matthew Huxtable tossed a 39-yard touchdown pass to senior wide receiver Tyrell Watson.

Late in the fourth quarter, Huxtable closed out Glenn’s scoring with a 70-yard pass to senior Ulices Ayala.

Huxtable completed 13 of 26 passes for 243 yards and two touchdowns. He found seven different targets with senior Robert Coates catching four passes for 36 yards.

But once again, the story was the ineffectiveness of the running game, which produced 67 yards on 30 carries.

Udengwu gained 27 yards on 10 carries before he left the game early in the second quarter. He could be later seen on the trainer’s table sitting next to Coates with an ice pack on the back of the neck.

Later in the game, Arias had to be taken away on a stretcher with an undisclosed injury.

“I was thin going in and my goal is to make it through 10 games,” Lobendahn said.

“Glenn has always had some athletes,” Ceniceros said. “I remember in 2009 when we were just going toe to toe with them and the Mayor’s Cup.” In 2009, Norwalk edged Glenn 42-35. Meanwhile, the performance put forth by Booth reminded many in attendance of former Norwalk running back Rashaad Penny, whom Ceniceros coached and is in his second season with the Seattle Seahawks. Booth finished with 250 yards on 11 touches and caught a 57-yard touchdown pass from Joseph Herrera, the lone completion in the game for the Lions. Booth had five runs of at

If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder's sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. If the sale is set aside for any reason, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the deposit paid. The Purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee, or the Mortgagee’s Attorney. If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may have been released of personal liability for this loan in which case this letter is intended to exercise the note holder's rights against the real property only. THIS NOTICE IS SENT FOR THE PURPOSE OF COLLECTING A DEBT. THIS FIRM IS ATTEMPTING TO COLLECT A DEBT ON BEHALF OF THE HOLDER AND OWNER OF THE NOTE. ANY INFORMATION OBTAINED BY OR PROVIDED TO THIS FIRM OR THE CREDITOR WILL BE USED FOR THAT PURPOSE. As required by law, you are hereby notified that a negative credit report reflecting on your credit record may be submitted to a credit report agency if you fail to fulfill the terms of your credit obligations. 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 the 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 auctioned 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 same 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 (844) 477-7869 or visit this Internet Web site www.

STOXPOSTING.com, using the file number assigned to this case 15-14947. 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.

A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by THOMAS WINFIELD in the Superior Court of California, County of LOS ANGELES. THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that THOMAS WINFIELD be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.

THE PETITION requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act . (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.

A HEARING on the petition will be held in this court as follows: 09/06/19 at 8:30AM in Dept. 2D located at 111 N. HILL ST., LOS ANGELES, CA 90012 IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.

IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code.

Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.

YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURER AND TAX COLLECTOR Notice of Divided Publication NOTICE OF DIVIDED PUBLICATION OF THE PROPERTY TAX-DEFAULT LIST (DELINQUENT LIST) Made pursuant to Section 3371, Revenue and Taxation Code Pursuant to Revenue and Taxation Code Sections 3381 through 3385, the County of Los Angeles Treasurer and Tax Collector is publishing in divided distribution, the Notice of Power to Sell Tax-Defaulted Property in and for the County of Los Angeles (County), State of California, to various newspapers of general circulation published in the County. A portion of the list appears in each of such newspapers.

I, Keith Knox, County of Los Angeles Acting Treasurer and Tax Collector, State of California, certify that: Notice is given that by operation of law at 12:01 a.m. Pacific Time, on July 1, 2017, I hereby declared the real properties listed below tax defaulted. The declaration of default was due to non-payment of the total amount due for the taxes, assessments, and other charges levied in tax year 2016-17 that were a lien on the listed real property.

Nonresidential commercial property and property upon which there is a recorded nuisance abatement lien shall be Subject to the Tax Collector’s Power to Sell after three years of defaulted taxes. Therefore, if the 2016-17 taxes remain defaulted after June 30, 2020, the property will become Subject to the Tax Collector’s Power to Sell and eligible for sale at the County’s public auction in 2021. All other property that has defaulted taxes after June 30, 2022, will become Subject to the Tax Collector’s Power to Sell and eligible for sale at the County’s public auction in 2023. The list contains the name of the assessee and the total tax, which was due on June 30, 2017, for tax year 2016-17, opposite the parcel number. Payments to redeem tax-defaulted real property shall include all amounts for unpaid taxes and assessments, together with the additional penalties and fees as prescribed by law, or paid under an installment plan of redemption if initiated prior to the property becoming Subject to the Tax Collector’s Power to Sell.

Please direct requests for information concerning redemption of taxdefaulted property to Keith Knox, Acting Treasurer and Tax Collector, at 225 North Hill Street, Los Angeles, California 90012, 1(888) 8072111 or 1(213) 974-2111.

I certify under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO ADMINISTER ESTATE OF: ELVA M. VEGA CASE NO. BP165977 To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the WILL or estate, or both of ELVA M. VEGA. A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by GEORGINA VEGA in the Superior Court of California, County of LOS ANGELES. THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that GEORGINA VEGA be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.

THE PETITION requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act . (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.

A HEARING on the petition will be held in this court as follows: 09/23/19 at 8:30AM in Dept. 9 located at 111 N. HILL ST., LOS ANGELES, CA 90012 IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.

IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code.

Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.

YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.
