Vehicle bursts into flames on Carpinteria and Bailard avenues

Firefighters responded to an older Mercedes convertible engulfed in flames last Friday, located at the intersection of Carpinteria and Bailard avenues.

Crews arrived around 1:46 p.m. to the report of a vehicle on fire. According to Carpinteria-Summerland Fire Protection District representative Grace Rampton, the driver had been waved down while he was driving and told “his engine was smoking/on fire.”

“The vehicle was well involved on arrival of fire units, (and the) occupant was out and away from the vehicle,” Rampton said.

Rampton said the fire was extinguished, and the fire investigator determined the cause of the fire was “probable mechanical failure.”

Beach advisory issued following

local rain

The Santa Barbara County Public Health Department issued a general rain advisory for all county beaches, warning residents not to swim in the ocean or creeks for three days following a rain event due to storm water runoff.

“Storm water is untreated rainwater that flows through the drain system into creeks, the ocean and other waterways. Contact with storm water while swimming or surfing may increase the risk for certain types of illnesses such as rashes, fever, chills, ear infections, vomiting and diarrhea,” the department said in a release.

“Unlike the municipal sewer system, water carried by a storm drain system is not treated. To minimize potential health risks, it is recommended that people do not swim, play or surf in the ocean and creeks for at least three days following a rain event. Beachgoers should also avoid areas near the outfall from drainpipes and creeks that enter the ocean following a rain event as storm water runoff may carry high levels of bacteria and pollutants.”

RSV infections “on the rise” in California

Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) infections are “on the rise” early in California and in Santa Barbara County, the Santa Barbara County Public Health Department said last week, along with other respiratory infections.

RSV symptoms include a fever, cough, wheezing and runny nose; in infants and young children, symptoms can include being lethargic, feeding poorly and having trouble breathing.

“County Public Health is working closely with local healthcare providers to ensure prevention and treatment strategies are top of mind this fall and winter season,” Paige Batson, deputy director for Community Health, said in a press release. “Increases in RSV infections are being seen early this year which makes it especially critical for community members to get vacci nated against flu and Covid-19 as soon as possible.”

The department also urged residents to get their flu shots and an updated Covid-19 booster shot. In a press release sent out last week, the department re minded residents that it is recommend ed that everyone six months and older receive a flu vaccine each year, and that everyone ages five and up receive an updated Covid-19 booster.

Cannabis storefront coming to Santa Claus Lane following Board of Supervisors vote

Board of Supervisors unanimously denies appeal against Roots Carpinteria

BY ATMIKA IYER

Santa Claus Lane will soon see a canna bis storefront – the first in the Carpinteria area, although technically under county boundaries – after the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors voted 5-0 last week to deny an appeal against the project.

Steve Kent, who owns property on Santa Claus Lane, originally attempted to appeal approval of the Roots Carpinteria cannabis storefront through the Planning Commission, but upon denial, raised his appeal to the Board of Supervisors.

The project is located on 3823 Santa Claus Lan e and will use the existing storefront for the cannabis dispensary. The storefront is scheduled to operate seven days a week from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., with a total of eight to 10 employees. Only five employees will be on site at one time.

The appellant alleged a total of eight issues with the project, including viola tions of the Coastal Act policy and the Toro Canyon Plan, impacts to traffic and beach accessibility, incompatibility with the surrounding area and an unfair hearing from the Planning Commission.

He also claimed the applicant’s traffic study was insufficient, and that the proj ect’s wall was encroaching on a neigh boring property.

Staff disagreed with Kent’s assessment and responded to all of the claims with proof of inaccuracy or misunderstanding. Staff ultimately recommended that the Board of Supervisors deny the appeal and grant de novo approval of the project.

The appellant’s representative, Jana Zimmer, argued that there was an “in stitutional bias” toward approving the project. “The conduct of this case and the institutional bias toward approval has represented a rolling due process viola tion impacting the rights of the public and my clients to full and fair participation,” she argued during the meeting.

She also alleged that the first district distributed a “disturbing email” with false allegations against her client. The presentation continued to back the claims staff originally presented as the appel lant’s issues.

The majority of complaints against Roots Carpinteria voiced during the Board of Supervisors meeting were iden tical to those heard during the project’s Planning Commission hearing.

Dennis Bozanich, representing the applicants – Luis Castaneda, Beth Thuna, Pat Radis, Maire Radis and Victor San chez – said the appellants’ new and past claims are “erroneous or evidence-free assumptions.”

The contentious community issue garnered heavy public comment, with a total of 31 public commenters.

“I live in the city of Carpinteria. Roots, the cannabis dispensary, has my full

support. Please deny this appeal,” public commentor Amy Orozco said. “Person ally, I will benefit from having Roots on Santa Claus Lane and I know other Carpinterians who will too. Not having to travel to Santa Barbara or Ojai for medicine is something we look forward to,” she continued.

Though a majority of those speaking in public comment favored the project, others still voiced qualms.

As board members began discussing the appeal, First District Supervisor Das Williams – who has already expressed a contentious relationship with the appellants at the beginning of the meet ing was interrupted by Zimmer while discussing his perspective on the issue.

“I met with (the appellants) and I pro ceeded to get cc’d or sent an email about the meeting that took place, and it was so far from the reality I had experienced. The characterizations,” Williams started to say, before he was interrupted by Zimmer.

“I’m going to have to object to this,” Zimmer interjected, to which Chair and Third District Supervisor Joann Hart mann responded, “That’s not your role.”

Williams continued: “Ms. Zimmer, you’ve talked about this everywhere in the public sphere. I get to talk about it right here. And I indicated that if mixed characterizations were going to be the way that this was going to go forward, then I was not going to communicate,” he said. “I would still take and read materi als, but I was not going to communicate with the appellant.”

Williams further claimed that the ap pellant and Zimmer made “continuous accusations without evidence about me wanting (the dispensary) here.”

Fifth District Supervisor Steve Lavagni no said the reason that he “steered clear of retail cannabis is just because of (Williams’) experience,” citing no way to find middle ground. He added that dispensaries’ secu rity requires ID prior to entry, preventing minors from accessing the drug.

“The first thing that happens when you walk into a dispensary, as opposed to a bar by the way, a bar is going to maybe check your ID when you go there depending on if you look 14 or you’re 24,” Lavagnino said. “You can’t get into a dispensary without showing your ID.”

Following these comments, the board trailed the item to give the appellant and applicant an opportunity to review a study Williams referenced regarding dispensaries lowering crime rates. When the item resumed, Zimmer submitted a news article that had reached the oppo site conclusion, and supervisors spent time during the board meeting reading through the submitted article prior to continuing deliberations.

Fourth District Supervisor Bob Nelson recognized that Roots is the first retail

cannabis project up for approval from the Board of Supervisors, and said that despite his personal qualms with marijua na, the project ultimately met the required zoning laws.

“Ms. Zimmer, you said it was about, ‘Location, location, location.’ At the end of the day, this is about zoning, zon

ing, zoning and we don’t have a fami ly-friendly zone in the code, as far as I know,” Nelson said.

Nelson put forth the motion to deny the appeal and grant de novo approval of the project, seconded by Williams. The project moved forward with a 5-0 vote in favor of Roots Carpinteria.

Measure T race too close to call; Clark leads in district five race

Election numbers will be updated by Nov. 15

BY EVELYN SPENCE

There were three winners in Carpinte ria for the Tuesday night city elections –Monica Solórzano for the district one city council seat, Councilmember Roy Lee for district three and potentially Vice Mayor Al Clark for district five, the latter with 56.32% of the vote – but the controversial Measure T ballot measure remains close. As of Wednesday morning, the number of “no” votes have the lead only by eight votes.

Semi-official election results show 1,398 (50.14%) people voted no on Mea sure T, while 1,390 (49.86%) voted yes; 2,903 people voted on the issue, or 35.68% of registered voters in Carpinteria. The measure requires a majority vote – 50% plus one vote – to pass.

The count will be tentatively updated by Nov. 15 at 5 p.m., to account for any additional mail-in ballots. The results must be certified by Dec. 8 by the Santa Barbara County Elections office.

Annie Sly, representative from the “Yes on Measure T” campaign, said the campaign is “disappointed” with the preliminary results.

“An 8-vote difference is a heartbreaker. We are proud of the positive campaign we ran. Several Carpinterians complimented us and specifically mentioned that they appreciated that we remained positive throughout the campaign (…) the results are preliminary. We look forward to learning what the final certification is,” Sly told CVN.

The “No on T” campaign did not provide a comment by the publication deadline.

Vice Mayor Clark is well ahead of his fellow councilmember, Gregg A. Carty, with 56.32% of the vote compared to Carty’s 32.46% for the district five seat. Clark received 321 votes, and Carty 185 votes; the third candidate, Patrick O’Con nor, received 59 votes. There were five write-in votes for the district five seat.

Clark did not immediately respond to request for comment.

Solórzano, the sole candidate on the ballot for district one, received 92.25% of the vote in her district, or 309 votes. There were 22 write-in votes for the district one seat; seven went to write-in candidate Patty Boyd.

Councilmember Lee won with 87.2% of the vote in his district, or 477 votes. There were 70 write-in votes for the dis

trict three seat. Eric Bridgford also won the trustee area one seat on the Carpinteria Unified School District Board of Trustees with 66.20% of the vote, at 521 votes, com

pared to Nuh Kimbwala, who earned 258 (32.78%) votes. There were eight write-in votes for the race.

Carolyn Coane Gibb

07/08/1930 – 10/09/2022

Carolyn Coane Gibb was born July 8, 1930, the younger daughter of Grace Gragg Sheridan Coane and Ralph Waldo Coane. At fourteen, she experienced a vision of Jesus Christ, who appeared to her and called her to his service, an invitation which was to determine the course of her future life.

After graduating from Santa Barbara High School, Carolyn attended Prairie Bible School in Alberta, Canada, and later Wheaton College in Illinois, where she majored in Bible and prepared for the mission field. She married George Jackson Gibb in June 1950, and after a brief period as missionaries in Chile, the couple returned to the United States, where they joined Carolyn’s mother Grace. Carolyn was to spend some years caring for her mother, and later, her elder sister Constance, and finally, her husband.

For most of their adult lives, Carolyn and George engaged in home missions, conducting Bible classes for children and hosting adult Bible classes in their home. Often, they sought to share their home with needy youths who lacked a functioning family, for whom they provided food, shelter, counsel and affection. During this period, Carolyn published a volume of devotional meditations, “More Than Enough.” After Grace’s death the couple moved to Carpinteria, where Carolyn and George became active members of the Carpinteria Baptist Church. Carolyn cared devotedly for George in his later years, until he expired peacefully in their home at the age of 93 in 2020.

Christopher James Reimel 01/02/1980 – 10/25/2022

It is with heavy hearts we announce the loss of our beloved Christopher James Reimel.

Christopher was born at Cottage Hospital on Jan. 2, 1980, the first Carpinteria baby of the new decade. He died suddenly in Pismo Beach on Oct. 25. Chris grew up in Carpinteria attending local schools and graduated from Santa Barbara High. He later attended Santa Barbara City College.

Christopher was a son, brother, father, uncle and nephew. He is survived by his parents Don and Linda Reimel, son Charles James Reimel, brother Matthew Reimel, sister Courtney (Gregg) Simms, and uncles Patrick (Jennifer) Housh, Rick Housh, John (Tish) Housh, Peter (Linda) Housh and Jim Reimel, and numerous cousins.

Chris was an avid reader and would always have a new book with him, especially Laurence Block or Chuck Palahniuk. He was funny, artistic, and clever with a wicked sense of humor. Chris was a master of sudoku and crossword puzzles. He was a progressive thinker and enjoyed discussing politics with family and friends. He loved family get-togethers especially tri-tip barbecues. He was soft spoken, 6 ft. 4 in., with beautiful blue eyes and loved to make people laugh.

Carolyn was a woman of high intelligence, scrupulous honesty, an exact memory and consistent ideals. She was an energetic homemaker and hospitable cook with a concern for healthy foods and an interest in health care. In personal habits she was unselfish, unmaterialistic, abstemious and self-denying; her response to every compliment was, “I cannot do anything myself; it is only through God’s grace,” thus embodying her highest aspiration, “That through my life Thy loveliness may show.”

A memorial service was held at the Carpinteria Cemetery on Oct. 24.

Chris’ greatest love was for his young son Charles James Reimel. He loved taking Charles to the beach, to the Zoo, exploring museums, playing games and hiking in Toro Canyon Park. Chris will be greatly missed.

A memorial event will take place at a later date.

Palms Hotel project gets first concept review at Planning Commission

BY RYAN P. CRUZ

The proposed 17-room hotel/bar/cafe at 701 Linden Avenue – former home of The Palms Restaurant – started its long journey through the city review process with a conceptual review Monday night at the Carpinteria Planning Commission.

The Palms was originally a hotel when it was first built in 1910, before undergo ing a transformation into a mixed-use space sometime in the ‘60s. It eventually operated as a restaurant with an office space and five residential apartments used for employee housing.

After working with several potential buyers, the family that owns the prop erty struck a deal with Xorin Balbes, an author and self-described architectural conservator who specializes in restoring architecturally significant properties, most recently with the Fred Baldwin Memorial Home on Maui’s North Shore.

Balbes spoke at the meeting, although his architect Paul Ashley was not able to attend. No renderings of the outside have been revealed, and Balbes maintained that he is committed to retaining the “color” of The Palms by not changing much of the architecture on the historic exterior of the building.

According to Balbes, the rooms would cost around $400 a night, which he said is “still affordable to a lot of people, and not excluding anyone.”

Most of the structural changes will be on the interior, which will be reconfig ured as a 17-room hotel within the same footprint. On the ground floor, six guest rooms will be “situated around the rear and Seventh Street perimeter,” according to city planner Nick Bobroff, while the southern half of the Oaxaca Fresh restau rant – which is technically part of The Palms property – will be used as a cafe facing Linden Ave. and back-of-house kitchen operations.

City staff wanted input on two main issues: Whether the property be more appropriate for a “visitor accommoda tion” use like the hotel, or as a mixed-use residential development with workforce housing; and secondly, what should be done with the parking situation.

A nine-space parking lot on the prop erty will stay, and Bobroff said the project would “technically meet” the city’s zon ing requirement of 47 spaces (19 required for the hotel, 28 for the cafe) due to 38

hotel was appropriate for the property, since the location had originally been used for the purpose, and other residen tial projects were likely to come in the downtown area in the future.

Remembering our traditions

VIEWPOINT

Nurse Practitioner Week is Nov. 13-19

BY JEANETTE GUMBER, HEALTH CARE ADMINISTRATOR

The Carpinteria Health Care Center recognizes National Nurse Practitioner Week, Nov. 13-19, by celebrating Alicia Jacobson, our nurse practitioner.

Nurse Practitioners (NP) are trained, licensed and independent healthcare clinicians who concentrate on managing patients’ health conditions by treating injuries and illnesses, as well as sup porting injury and disease prevention. Advanced practice registered nurses who have completed a graduate degree in nursing, in addition to the training and certification required for an NP license, hold significantly more responsibility in the healthcare field than Registered Nurses (RN). In fact, their responsibili ties are comparable to those of medical doctors and physician assistants.

They are healthcare leaders who con duct research, mentor nurses and staff, and fill the shortage of primary care in the U.S., ultimately lowering the cost of health care for patients.

Alicia Jacobson has served the women of Carpinteria since 2009. Alicia provides obstetrical and gynecological services at the Santa Barbara County Public Health Department.

Marigolds, sugar skulls, candles and bright colors filled our Carpinteria Chil dren’s Project (CCP) hallway. Children filled sheets with pictures of loved ones who had passed away. Day of the Dead was around the corner.

In October, while some people think about Halloween, my family thinks about Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) and looks forward to creating and decorating an altar with pictures of our loved ones and their favorite foods, drinks and items. This year we partnered with the Lynda Fairly Carpinteria Arts Center, PacWest Blooms/Dirt Botanicals, the Alcazar The atre and the Rotary Club of Carpinteria Morning to bring this beautiful tradition to Carpinteria in a different part of town. Families enjoyed watching the movie “Coco” and brought pictures of their loved ones they wanted to remember.

At CCP, we have created altars in the past to bring some of the Mexican cul tures that mean so much to our primarily Latino staff. For some, this reminds them of their hometowns in Mexico. This is true for our Latino families as well. We want ed to help create this experience for our nearly 50% Latino community and bring awareness to other local nonprofits like the arts center and the Alcazar. We know families who feel comfortable and safe in spaces will build trust and strengthen relationships. We want families to know the incredible resources offered to them

and their children.

We’ll partner with these wonderful organizations again in December to bring a community Posada to Carpinteria, on Dec. 11. Traditionally, a Posada is a reli gious celebration; however, we want it to be a celebration of community and the holidays. We will have traditional music and food and welcome families, their children and anyone else who wants to witness the celebration of a posada. For more information, you can reach out to our Director of Community Partnerships Ismael at iparedesulloa@carpchildren.org.

SBAR grants preliminary approval to changes at Creekside Blooms Cannabis

BY JUN STARKEY

The Santa Barbara County South Board of Architectural Review granted preliminary approval for several changes at the Creekside Blooms cannabis cultivation at its Nov. 4 meeting, which included the raising of two greenhouses and the addition of about 54,500 square feet of native landscaping.

Modifications to the property, including the raising of the two greenhouses from 15 feet and 17.5 feet respectively to 22 feet, were already approved by the Santa Barbara County Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors earlier this year.

Creekside Blooms cannabis grow, owned by Ivan Van Wingerden, has been contested by members of the public since it was officially approved by the Santa Barbara County Planning Commission in March of this year. The organization began growing in cannabis in 2015 under nonconforming status and applied for a permit in 2019.

During the meeting, public commenters’ main contentions with the Creekside grow were its proximity to the Arroyo Paredon Creek, and the eligibility of expansion or changes to a structure under nonconforming status.

The California Coastal Act prohibits developments within 100 feet of a creek; however, the greenhouses at Creekside were permitted as nonconforming structures before this rule was enforced. Public commenters argued that a structure classified as nonconforming should not be eligible for expansion, and if any changes were made to the greenhouses, then the entire structure should be forced into compliance and moved out of the 100-foot border.

Jill Stassinos, a Carpinteria resident who has spoken against the Creekside grow at previous meetings, claimed the height increase contradicted the 2004 Toro Canyon Community Plan and the Carpinteria Agricultural Overlay, which states that nonconforming structures could not be enlarged or expanded. She further claimed the changes were “not for the sole purpose of allowing air to circulate, but to allow more cannabis plants to grow vertically and therefore increase their profit.”

In response, County Planner Gwen Beyeler said the development is now considered conforming, essentially being “cured” by the change in height.

Although Beyeler said the board technically has purview over aesthetic changes to the development, which includes

height, board members agreed the point would be moot considering the height had previously been approved. “The board of supervisors, which are the ultimate decision makers on the permit, have already signed off on the height issue,” said Alex Tuttle, a supervising planner. “So, you’re in a difficult spot, but that’s the nature of our process.”

The board unanimously granted preliminary approval, and the item will come back for final approval after a landscaping architect can review and approve the planting of several trees in a parking area, and determine if the plants will have sufficient room to grow.

CAASPP data shows statewide decline in student performance

2021-22 decline attributed to Covid-19 pandemic

CVN DIANA RIGBY CUSD SUPERINTENDENT

SUPERINTENDENT’S DESK

The Carpinteria Unified School District (CUSD) administered the Smarter Balanced Summative Assessments to students in grades three through 11 for English Language Arts and Mathematics last May and June. The California Science Test (CAST) is required for students in grades five and eight, and once in grades 10, 11, or 12. The California Alternate Assessment for ELA and Mathematics was administered to students with the most significant cognitive disabilities who are unable to participate in the Smarter Balanced Summative Assessments.

The primary purpose of the CAASPP System is to assist teachers, administrators, students and parents by promoting high-quality teaching and learning through the use of a variety of assessment approaches and item types.

On Oct. 24, the state released the 202122 CAASPP assessment data, confirming the decline in student performance that was expected in the first full administration of these tests since Covid-19 pandemic. CAASPP data for 21-22 academic year show the impact of the pandemic on student achievement, with less than half of students meeting or exceeding standards for English Language Arts, and a four-percentage point drop from

Data for the 21-22 academic year shows the impact of the pandemic on student achievement, with less than half of students meeting or exceeding standards for English Language Arts, and a fourpercentage point drop from 2018-19.

2018-19. The rate of students who met or exceeded math standards fell seven percentage points, from 40% to 33%.

CUSD results show a similar decline.

Appreciation: CHS coaches, district psychologists

I would like to recognize Carpinteria High School (CHS) Athletic Director Pat Cooney, CHS Boosters, coaches and CHS student athletes for a terrific fall season of high school athletics. Girls’ tennis and boys’ water polo have qualified for post-season playoffs!

National School Psychology Week, sponsored by the National School Psychologists Association (NSPA), is observed annually during the second week of November: Nov. 7–11. It is a time to engage in discussions to help create the connections necessary for students to develop critical academic and social emotional skills.

I would also like to celebrate and thank CUSD school psychologists: Rob Santiago, CHS/Canalino/CFS; Jenny Aldredge, Aliso/Summerland/Preschool; and Meagan Feller, CMS/Preschool for the differences they are making in the lives of our students, families and school mental health teams.

Parent involvement high at parent conferences

Parent participation in their child’s education is critical to academic achievement, and we are pleased with the high parent attendance rates for parent conferences this past week.

Elementary teachers carefully prepared to help parents understand student grade level progress and to provide home support activities to reinforce reading and math skills.

All students should be reading a minimum of thirty minutes per night and practicing their math facts to increase automaticity and fluency. Students need to leave elementary school reading at grade level and master math and fact fluency to be successful in middle and high school.

We depend on parents to make reading and practicing math facts priorities in their homes, and we are grateful for their partnership.

Single Plan for Student Achievement (SPSA)

California Education Code 64001 and the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) require schools that receive federal funds through the ConApp to consolidate all school planning requirements into the SPSA. The Single Plan for Student Achievement (SPSA) is aligned with the Board-adopted LCAP and represents a school’s cycle of continuous improvement of student achievement.

The annual process of developing, reviewing, and updating the SPSA includes a comprehensive review of data and the development of actions necessary to achieve school goals.

Summerland School classroom campus transition begins December

Concrete work continues at Summerland. The school is now officially powered up as Southern California Edison has completed site inspection. Flooring and the new play structure are now complete. Moving classrooms from Main school to Summerland is scheduled beginning Dec. 19 and will continue over winter break. Summerland students will return to a new school on Jan. 5.

The Summerland School tennis courts are waiting for the final county permit. The board approved the contract to McGillivray Construction for the tennis court project, and McGillivray is currently working on the GMP which will be brought to the board on Nov. 22.

Architect Robert Robles has begun planning for the next big projects: The Canalino Elementary School Learning Center and replacement of the transitional kindergarten/kindergarten classroom portables at Aliso. The Main School roof replacement project has received DSA approval and will commence in June 2023.

At the Oct. 26, 2022 State Allocation Board meeting, a total of $13,681,635 was approved for funding release to CUSD by the Office of Public School Construction. We should expect the funds to be received in Spring 2023.

BEAMISH

My daughter told me she had the “Sunday sads,” towards the end of last weekend. Johnny Cash (who, incidentally, once lived in beautiful Casitas Springs just up the road from us) sings about “Sunday morning coming down” and you can just feel the alcohol poison and regret in his lines, and most of us know that ennui that sometimes accompanies the Sabbath day.

“Look at those feelings like passing clouds,” I told her, hoping to teach her the trick of not letting fleeting thoughts set in and grab hold. It’s taken me until now, well into my 50s, to learn that mental side-step, to dodge those feelings of dread and recognize that they’re just feelings, not reality.

On Saturday, my friend Jeff Hull had a “Hulls and Hulls” party at his boat yard down here in Ventura, celebrating the run of surfboards our mutual friend Tristan shaped in a week-long flurry while visiting from France. Tristan’s brand is “Fantastic Acid” which plays

At

his 8’8”,

on the “Plastic Fantastic” surfboard label of the late ‘60s/early ‘70s, perhaps with a more-overt reference to psychedelia as the original didn’t spell it out beyond its own – very groovy – logo.

Tristan does mostly displacement hull designs, endemic to Santa Barbara County, with a good number of DeepVee bottom boards as well, reminiscent of Australian Bob McTavish’s work ushering in the “Shortboard Revolution” back in ’67. Interestingly, Matt Moore once shared with me that McTavish and Greenough were working with Michael Cundith of Wilderness Surfboards just a few doors up from Matt’s place in Concha Loma. Matt got to see them working out

design ideas at Rincon – a front-row seat to surfing history.

So, I called Matt to see if I remembered the story correctly and he took it up again, explaining that he’d tried the displacement hull style boards early on in his shaping career. (For clarification: “displacement hull” refers to surfboards that have slightly convex bottoms, the most-extreme example being George Greenough’s kneeboard spoons.) While the hulls definitely give an intimate wave riding experience, sitting right in the pocket, the boards are mostly for the feeling of trimming – which is great – but not so much for making abrupt direction changes.

For Rincon, Matt Moore found that the Hawaiian-style boards – narrow pintail single fins, with flatter bottoms and more subtle vee panels through the tail – allowed him to drop down into the trough of the wave, then carve off the bottom, back up into the hook, in the manner of the great Barry Kanaiaupuni at Sunset Beach on the North Shore.

I bring this up because it’s all just feeling and exploration in surfing – “passing clouds,” as I told my daughter the other day. The boards I’m making are more in the Matt Moore way of design I’d say, generally: Flatter bottoms, with concaves leading into channels on the performance models. On the longer single fins, the vee panels and slight convexity through the forward section are much subtler than on the original versions, or even many of the more contemporary interpretations. The fun is in exploring the variables, and I have a lot of respect for what Tristan is doing on the big reef waves in Southern France where he lives, taking that full commitment to displacement hull theory and running it out on 12- to 15-feet of raw North Atlantic power.

Just North of Point Conception, we’ve got reefs-o-plenty to commit to as well, and I’ve got an 8’8” that swings much more to the Island-style gun side of the design spectrum, and I’m really looking forward to riding it this winter.

These relationships, though, the connections across the surfing world and across the relatively short span of our history – the fact that I can call Matt Moore and ask about the earliest days of shortboard design, and also that I know this futurist-throwback Frenchman, so inspired that he recreates and re-interprets the designs that most interest him – make for a vibrant culture.

Yet for as much joy as surfing and making surfboards brings, the world feels uncertain to me at this moment. It’s Election Day as I’m writing this, and we’ve gotten to an alienated place in the political life of our nation. We are unable to agree even on what the truth is, and it seems we’re losing one another – or, that we’re too-often lost to one another as Americans. A good friend from high school (a great surfer too, for whatever that’s worth) told me the other day that Ukraine is so corrupt they deserve the Russian invasion. His saying that, and the certainty he seemed to have about it, left me feeling un-moored.

But I know for certain there’s a larger truth that we’re all living, and that that truth involves love and kindness, creativity and growth. Still, I sense trying times ahead. I’m not wanting to conjure it through these words of mine, but the ratcheting news stories get in my head: economic, political, warfare. Can we not choose a better way? Must we continuously cycle through calamity to relative calm? “We have nothing to fear,” FDR said, “but fear itself.” I have to remind myself of this too often as I gaze at the passing storm clouds.

Christian Beamish took leave of his position at Coastal View News in October 2020, to pursue his surfboard business, “Surfboards California,” full time. He continues his monthly column, and shapes at the surfboard factory showroom at 500 Maple Ave., in Carpinteria. The former Associate Editor of The Surfer’s Journal, Beamish is also the author of “Voyage of the Cormorant,” (Patagonia Books, 2012) about his single-handed expedition down the coast of Baja California by sail and oar in his self-built Shetland Isle beach boat. He now lives with his wife and two children in Ventura.

Editor’s Note: This article is continued from “Want a home gym? Try these items (Pt. 1)” that ran in CVN Vol. 29, No. 7. Find Pt. 1 online at coastalview.com.

The next items further enhance your workout experience, so it feels less like a “home” gym and more “real” gym.

Tier 3 Items: Get these third Here is where barbells come in. Olym pic barbells are designed to hold more weight and are typically wider and have thicker end sleeves than a standard bar bell, which are usually rated for much less weight loads.

Barbells can range from $60 to nearly $800 (or more). You will have to decide what kind of barbell is right for you, again, by doing research on the best ones for what you need, or don’t need it for.

The thing about barbells is, you have

to buy plates, as well. These can be made from metal coated metal), rubber or urethane, among other types of material. The price varies wildly for these, with metal being the cheapest. The sizes will differ based on the style of plate, either Olympic, which have varying sizes and are typically only metal, or bumper plates, which are all the same diameter, but are made of the softer material, which allows you to drop them without worry about chipping your floor.

There are some standard plates avail able too. Note that standard plates are not compatible with Olympic bars and vice versa.

Either option is fine, again, depending on budget or goals. Look for deals on Black Friday if you want to get them cheaper and with minimal shipping, which can get expensive from some suppliers.

Since you’re now going to get a bar bell, the next logical investment is in a good squat rack. These can range in price from about $100 (not recommended –you’ll be limited on how much weight you can use with these racks without them tipping over) to over $2,500 if you’re going for a full rig/power rack combo (again, not recommended – it takes up too much space and it’s just overkill). My suggestion is to do some research and find a rack that holds as much weight as you think you’ll own/ or can lift on any movement, then read the reviews.

Finally, my third suggestion in this category is a power tower. These appara tuses will have a bar for pull-ups, a spot

for dips, and typically a pad or way for you to do hanging leg/knee raises.

The only thing of note on these is if you are tall: make sure you are check ing the height/weight capacity on the power tower.

Tier 4 Items: Nice to have

Pretty much everything else falls into this category. Having organization is nice, but not a necessity. Slam balls are one of my favorite, but they aren’t life-changing. Sandbags, another favor ite, are versatile and fun, but aren’t going to radically change your workout.

So, whatever that “thing” is you think you need that I’ve failed to mention, it still falls into this category.

Buy these items on a basis of how often you’ll use them, not by what sounds fun or interesting, as I’ve mistakenly done.

In conclusion, when you start shop

ping for home fitness equipment, you’ll realize there are a lot of products and models to choose from. While I wrote this guide for the general population, think about what your goals are and how you like to train, and then decide on what you really need first. Keep building from there. If you’re wondering if something is a good investment, shoot me a message and I’d be happy to give my two cents. Good luck on building your perfect workout haven!

(f) Any violation of any provision of this Ordinance or the Code and any amendment thereto may, in the discretion of the District Attorney for the County, be prosecuted as a misdemeanor.

Section 7. Liability.

It is the intent of the Board to establish minimum standards for the protection of the public health, safety and welfare.

This Ordinance shall not be construed to establish standards of performance, strength, or durability other than those specified. Neither this Ordinance nor any services rendered in connection with or pursuant to its terms by District officers, agents or employees, are intended as nor shall be construed to be the basis for any express or implied warranties or guarantees to any person concerning any structure or portion thereof or appurtenance thereto constructed, repaired, replaced or removed pursuant to this Ordinance or the Code hereby adopted.

Section 8. Findings.

The Board, following due consideration, hereby finds and determines that all the amendments, deletions, and additions to the foregoing Codes are reasonably necessary due to local climatic, geological, and topographical conditions existing in the District. The District hereby finds and declares that:

The area within which the District is located regularly experiences strong, hot, dusty, and down canyon winds referred to locally as “Sundowners” or “Santa Anas”. Such wind conditions increase fire danger by significantly contributing to the spread and intensity of fires, and significantly increase the difficulty of effective fire suppression within the District. If a fire involving a single structure cannot be immediately extinguished, such wind conditions can rapidly spread flames to adjacent structures, significantly endangering lives and/or millions of dollars in property value. Such winds can spread existing flames from a structure or natural fuel to structures and natural fuel significant distances away, even jumping over fire breaks and freeways, resulting in significant property damage and/or loss of life.

Areas of the District are also densely populated, and the close proximity of structures significantly increases the risk of “exposure fires,” which emanate from a fire initiated within one structure and can rapidly spread to other nearby structures to generate a conflagration, endangering entire neighborhoods. The installation of automatic fire sprinklers in existing buildings upon any addition, alteration, or repair—i.e. when they are modernized so as to extend their expected useful life—will minimize the risk of exposure fires and provide more time efficient fire suppression actions.

Much of the jurisdiction of the District is within heavy brush and chaparral. It is generally known to take approximately 25 years to build up extremely dangerous combustible brush conditions, and the District contains areas where combustible flora has built up for 50 to 100 years.

The District is in an area prone to extensive drought conditions, significantly increasing the already natural combustibility of the chaparral, brush and ornamental shrubbery in the District. Such fuels can rapidly transform a small manageable fire into an uncontrollable conflagration, compromising the lives and safety of District personnel and residents. The reduction of such fuels provides a direct correlation to the safety of the lives and property within the District, and will substantially reduce the risk of injury or death to District personnel.

The District is geographically situated such that extreme solar exposure (south, southwest, and west facing slopes) continually results in critically low live fuel moisture levels, further rendering most brush, chaparral and ornamental shrubbery highly combustible. Due to these conditions even non- structural fires can pose a massive threat to the lives and structures located in the District.

The District is located in close proximity to several active earthquake faults. During and after an earthquake, there is a high potential for fires and other emergencies threatening the lives of District residents, generally requiring the commitment of all available resources.

Geographic and topographic conditions delay response times for fire apparatus (these conditions include remote structures; narrow, winding roads which hamper the access of modern fire suppression apparatus; and extremely sloping roads which tend to slow fire apparatus response).

Water can be in short supply in the District, and fires in areas with structures with noncombustible roofing typically consume far lesser quantities of water than those not complying with the Plan, allowing greater fire suppression coverage, and preventing unnecessary loss of life and/or property within the District.

The amendments provide a means

of ensuring that safe and efficient firefighting operations are conducted in buildings with rooftop photovoltaic systems during periods of low humidity and high winds, potential seismic activity, or in areas of restricted access present in the City and County.

U.S. Highway 101 traverses the District, and is a transportation route for hazardous materials and some traffic accidents on Highway 101 require the presence of all available fire apparatus, leaving the District with fewer resources to combat structural fires elsewhere in the District.

The Union Pacific Railroad line also traverses the District. A train accident or derailment could immediately deplete the District’s resources, limiting the District’s ability to furnish fire protection for the balance of the District.

The Carpinteria-Summerland Fire Protection District is in the mutual aid plan and is committed to supply personnel and equipment for serious fires outside the District and which can reduce the personnel and equipment available for response to possible emergencies within the District.

Further, in many instances because of the extra hazardous conditions, a defensible space protection zone around buildings and structures of only one hundred feet is not sufficient to provide for tenable wildland firefighting operations around such buildings and structures. These conditions are common upon lands within the rural areas with slopes exceeding 25% and are covered with old age class chaparral and dense vegetation, creating conditions that are dangerous to fire fighters.

The increase in population and traffic within the Carpinteria-Summerland Fire Protection District has hampered and obstructed response routes and has increased response times for fire apparatus, especially during peak hours of mornings and evenings. On-site fire protection appliances will tend to reduce the amount of fire spread should a delay exist. Additionally, the continued residential growth and spread into undeveloped remote wildland areas has increased the demands on firefighting resources and response times

The Governing Board expressly finds and declares that the findings contained herein are needed to properly protect the health, safety, and welfare of existing and future residents and provide the basis for the amendment, deletions, and additions to the Code contained in this Ordinance.

Section 9. Severability.

If any article, section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase or word of this Ordinance is for any reason held to be unconstitutional or invalid, such holding shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this Ordinance.

The Board hereby declares that it would have passed this Ordinance and each article, section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase or word thereof irrespective of the fact that any one or more articles, sections, subsections, sentences, clauses, phrases or words may be unconstitutional or invalid.

Section 10. Effective Date and Publication.

(a) Effective Date. This Ordinance was introduced for first reading on October 5, 2022, and passed on November 2, 2022 and shall take effect 30 days after final passage.

(b) Publication. In accordance with Government Code section 25124, this Ordinance shall be published once, with the names of the members of the Board voting for and against it in a newspaper of general circulation in the District within 15 days after its adoption.

THROWBACK

Dirty dancing at Rincon Point

BY STEPHEN BATES

To run a hotel and restaurant on Rincon Point, Ruby and Burt Clark must have seemed ideal. Ruby had grown up there her parents, Dr. Reuben Webb Hill and Maria del Carmen Gutierrez Hill, farmed on the western part of the Point starting around 1890 – and she had managed a hotel in Sacramento. Her husband, Burt, had run a restaurant in Alameda. But things didn’t go as planned.

In 1915, the Clarks acquired a tract of land near Rincon Creek from the Hill family and built the Hotel Rincon. It had 16 rooms, separate cottages, a restaurant and bar, and all the modern conveniences (hot water, electric lights). According to the “Santa Barbara Morning Press,” it would “cater only to the desirable trade.”

From the start, though, the Hotel Rincon attracted riffraff. Men got drunk and rowdy at the opening barbecue on the Fourth of July 1915. At some point, the hotel got nicknamed Aunt Ruby’s Roadhouse. It developed a reputation, according to the Clarks, as “a place of carousal.”

Burt Clark knew something about places of carousal. His Alameda restau rant had featured illicit liquor and poker. After a police raid in 1908, according to Bay Area newspapers, he was sentenced to 40 days in jail. He threatened to kill a clergyman whom he blamed for his troubles.

The Hotel Rincon’s dubious reputation took a nosedive in 1916. At 3:30 a.m. on Feb. 13, three men from Santa Barbara’s Flying A movie studio left the hotel with three women. The car skidded in fog (the driver swore he wasn’t going faster than 20) and plunged into a sandy ditch near Carpinteria. A passenger named Cora Crawford, a 21-year-old clerk from Santa Barbara, was pinned under the car, face down in the sand. She suffocated.

A few months later, Santa Barbara County implemented a new procedure for issuing liquor licenses. The super visors granted licenses to Shepard’s Inn and the Miramar, but the Clarks’ appli cation faced opposition from temperance leaders, women’s groups, schoolteachers, ministers and even the county grand jury.

The Cora Crawford tragedy was only the beginning. The probation officer testified that girls on juvenile probation were getting picked up on the street in Santa Barbara and taken to the Hotel Rincon. A 14-year-old girl said that when she was at the hotel, Burt Clark invited her to perform what a newspaper called “exhibition dancing” for tips. The truant officer testified that he had spotted “im moral conduct” on the hotel veranda, details unreported.

The Clarks insisted that they were do ing their best to maintain an upstanding atmosphere. Ruby Clark said that her people, the Hills, “were always consid ered one of the most respected families in the county.” Her mother, Maria Hill, said that she was living at the hotel, and

she would never live in a disreputable place. She and both of the Clarks testified that they had never seen liquor served to minors. But before the supervisors ruled, Burt Clark, evidently reading the tea leaves, withdrew his application for a liquor license.

The Clarks moved away. Ruby Clark died of cancer in 1920, age 38. Burt remar ried, settled in Santa Paula, and came to a sad end in 1938. He checked himself into Camarillo State Hospital for treatment of psychiatric problems. Five days later, according to the “Piru News,” he walked out the hospital gate straight into traffic. He was hit by a Pacific Freight Lines truck and killed instantly.

Meanwhile, the hotel on Rincon Point changed owners and names several times, but its seedy reputation endured. Accord ing to one oft-told tale, the hotel manager was able to thwart law enforcement during Prohibition because the county line bisected the barroom: When Santa Barbara County cops raided, boozers raced to the Ventura County side, and vice-versa. There’s a grain of truth to that legend, as I’ll explain next month.

Warriors win first round, eliminated in second in CIF playoffs

BY RYAN P. CRUZ • PHOTOS BY ROSANA SWING

Carpinteria’s girls tennis team finished a successful season at 14-7, following a first-round win and second-round loss in the CIF Division 4 playoffs last week.

The Warriors’ postseason started out with a tough matchup in the first round against defending CIF champion, North view, at home in Carpinteria in very windy conditions.

In singles play, senior Zahra Porinsh got the action started with a 3-0 sweep, followed by Silke Leonard and Maria Sanchez with three more wins.

“I was so happy with how they each played. It might not have been their stron gest tennis of the year, but their fight and determination were very evident,” said Carpinteria head coach Charles Bryant.

In doubles, Ariana Lounsbury and Charlotte Cooney continued an unde feated season with another 3-0 sweep over Northview’s top duo.

“They know how to pull out the tough wins but also how not to give up games in some of the one-sided wins,” Bryant said.

The Warriors took five out of the six remaining doubles sets for a final 14-4 victory, and a spot in the second round against Xavier Prep.

“This was a much closer match than the score shows and many of the early sets could have swung a different direction,” Bryant said. “That’s why I am so proud of how the girls handled the elements, the first playoff match jitters and playing the defending champion.”

In the second round, the Warriors traveled over 200 miles to Palm Desert to face the Xavier Prep Saints. Carpin teria was able to keep up early in the match, with Porinsh claiming two out of three sets in singles and Leonard winning another pair of sets to go into the next round down 4-5.

In doubles, the Lounsbury-Cooney team that had gone the entire season without dropping a set finished 2-1 and suffered their first defeat of the year, although the pair will have a chance to continue their season in the CIF Section als on Nov. 21.

“They were easily the best doubles team our girls had faced all season,” Bryant said of the Saints’ top duo.

In the end, Xavier Prep came out on top, 12-6, ending the Warriors’ season in the second round with an overall record of 14-7.

“I was very proud of our girls and how hard they fought today and their never give up attitude as we battled all the way to the end even well after the outcome was decided,” Bryant said. “There is a lot of character in them, and it is not easy to continue to play, and play well, even after the outcome has been decided. We would like to wish Xavier Prep good luck the rest of the way. They were the strongest team we faced this season and have a good bal ance to go far.”

The Warriors will lose seven seniors

on this year’s squad: Captains Loun sbury and Porinsh, Sanchez, Elena Vargas, Stephanie Ramirez, Ashley Gonzalez and Olivia Broughton.

Porinsh (singles) will join Lounsbury and Cooney (doubles) at the CIF Sec tionals on Nov. 21; Leonard will also be invited as an alternate in singles.

Carpinteria’s cross country qualifies for CIF

Both the Warriors boys and girls cross country teams had members qualify to compete at the CIF prelims on Nov. 12 after a great team showing at the Citrus Coast League Finals at Lake Casitas last week.

The Warriors defense held on to a one-point lead for their second win of the year.

In the league finals, the Warriors closed out the regular season with great performances by Joel de Lira, who placed second overall in the boys race with a time of 16:53, and Belen Herrera, who finished in eighth in the girls race with a time of 21:37.

A total of eight runners qualified for the CIF prelims, with the entire boys team earning a spot and Herrera qualifying as an individual runner. The prelims will be held at Mt. San Antonio College on Nov. 12 at 8 a.m.

Cate cross country on top at Tri-County championships

Cate’s girls cross country team claimed its third Tri-County Athletic Association league title in the last four seasons, and the boys team placed a close second behind rival Thacher at this year’s league finals at Lake Casitas.

Kendall Thorne, Francesca Sutch, Lylie Bechtel and Jen Won finished second through fifth, and seven of Cate’s runners received All League Honors.

“When they run in a tight group like they did today, they are tough to beat,” said Cate coach Hannah Solis-Cohen.

The girls took first place as a team, and the boys finished second by only two points in a tight race with Thacher.

“The boys continue to improve with each race.” said first-year coach Tim Weir. “We are so proud of the hard work they have put in at practices and how much they have grown in understanding how to race. We feel they are just hitting their stride and we look forward to the opportunities at Mt. SAC next week.”

Both teams will compete at the CIF prelims on Nov. 12.

Warriors water polo wraps up season in

second round

Carpinteria hosted a first round matchup in the CIF-SS Division 2 boys water polo playoffs against Newbury Park, then earned a chance in the second round against Palm Desert before being eliminated and ending their season with a 17-8 record.

In the first round, Newbury Park started out hot with four unanswered goals, and the Panthers locked in on Carpinteria’s Asher Smith and Justin Main with double and triple teams that kept the duo fighting for offense for much of the game. Despite the defensive attention, Main scored five goals and Smith finished with three goals. Aiden Alcaraz added a pair and goalie Jacob Taff kept the game close with 11 saves.

Newbury Park held on to the lead 15-11, but Carpinteria advanced to the round of 16 due to a CIF ruling that Newbury Park “had an ineligible player participating” in the match.

In the second round, Carpinteria made the trek to Palm Desert, but once again fell behind and ultimately lost 19-11.

The Warriors finished the season 17-8 overall, and undefeated in the Citrus Coast League at 6-0.

“I am very proud of this young team,” said head coach Stephen Kim. “We made great improvements throughout the season, and I couldn’t have asked for more.”
