Fire board gets food for thought on new station, county consolidation
Luck of the draw
BY PETER DUGRÉ
“Should we be gambling? Should we be in the business of investing in real estate? I don’t think so.”
If outgoing Carpinteria-Summerland Fire District Chief Mike Mingee is a lame duck in his final month in command, he took the May 29 special fireboard meeting to spread his wings. Mingee offered his two cents and then some on how the district should approach two major issues: how to get a new fire station built in Summerland fol––Board Vice lowing the failed bond President Bill Taff measure and whether consolidation with Santa Barbara County would be a prudent move. In short, he recommended using projected budget surpluses to secure the Summerland property that had already been slated for station construction, and similarly, he advised against consolidation, stating that abandoning local control of firefighting resources makes little sense with a healthy budget. In a report to the finance committee, Mingee said that all signs pointed to a growing revenue stream tied to property values and taxes increasing. The 2015-2016 fiscal year budget projects a $370,000 surplus, money Mingee suggested could partially be used to purchase the 2450 Lillie Ave. property in Summerland to build a new station. Santa Barbara County Mosquito and Vector Control District has already agreed to sell, and CSFPD already pulled permits to build there. Mingee said the legwork and resources put into acquiring a Coastal Development Permit should not go to waste. “We spent a lot of money on that project, which is approved for the next three years,” he said. The permitting and study process ran up a $238,000 bill. In a presentation issued at the behest of President Chris Johnson, Mingee detailed what he called “Plan B,” the path to building a new Summerland station in the absence of bond funding. He recommended using portions of CSFPD reserves and capital improvement dollars totaling over $1 million to put a down-payment on the new property. Then the district could shift over firefighters and trucks, which could be placed under a canopy, to the newly acquired property. Proceeds of

Schools welcome one-time state infusion
Assistant Superintendent Cindy Abbott told the school board on May 26 that while most public schools in California are going to be “experiencing a bonanza of funding,” CUSD expects to have “a good year this year, but it’s not going to be a bonanza.” The state budget is so flush with funds, Abbott reported, that all school districts can expect to see at least a temporary boost, including CUSD. The financial influx of between $1.1 million and $1.3 million will be used for expenses like common core implementation and textbook purchases locally. In her budget update to the board, Abbott emphasized that the monies coming in next year are one-time only and “not available to cover ongoing expenses like salaries and benefits and utility costs.” Districts funded with the state’s new Local Control Funding Formula, which is based on average daily attendance of students, are poised for even larger revenue boosts from the state. CUSD is a Basic Aid district, meaning that its property tax income meets or exceeds funding

that would otherwise come from the state. As a Basic Aid district, CUSD is less vulnerable to state cuts but also benefits less from state surpluses. CUSD’s proposed 2015/2016 budget anticipates property tax growth of 5 percent, the same assumption as the last two years. Abbott said she hopes for higher numbers come October, when the county has a clearer grasp of actual tax income. ––Lea Boyd

Bear spotted on Franklin Trail
Carpinterian John Valikonis came across an unexpected hiker on Franklin trail on June 1, a black bear heading up the recently opened second phase of the trail. Valikonis, who was descending the second phase of the trail a little after 8 a.m., looked up and saw the bear about 20 feet in front of him. the animal had its head down while walking up the trail. Valikonis yelled, and the bear lumbered away on a side path and then into the brush. the bear, Valikonis said, seemed surprised to see him, but didn’t react in a threatening manner. his prints were visible along the trail for a couple hundred yards.

selling the former property, estimated at $900,000, could be used to start building a new station. “The Summerland Station won’t last. It has to be addressed. It’s almost 100 years old,” Mingee said. Boardmember Nilo Fanucchi agreed. “Let’s do it. I’m looking at funds. I’ve purchased and developed properties. With this kind of money, we can buy anything. I don’t understand why we’re holding back.” Board Vice President Bill Taff and member Margaret Baker both had reservations. Taff said the potential for a catastrophic wildfire in a time of drought makes healthy reserves suddenly indispensable. “Should we be gambling? Should we be in the business of investing in real estate? I don’t think so,” Taff said. He also said that voters not supporting the bond measure indicated that the district does not have public support in making moves to build a new station. Both Taff and Baker said previous studies on how the district can best position its resources to fight fires were not adequate in deciding the Summerland location was optimal. Board President Chris Johnson labeled building a new station on the west end of the coverage area as the top priority. Johnson said two studies had already been conducted, but Taff and Baker suggested the previous studies were tailor-made to support the location Mingee had decided upon. Johnson concluded that he would start a discussion with the vector control district and look more closely into funding options to bring Plan B back up for discussion at a later meeting.

At the request of boardmembers, Mingee also delivered a comprehensive presentation on his experience on district consolidations. He said the idea of joining Santa Barbara County, much like Carpinteria’s police contract, is not new for CSFPD. In fact, Mingee said discussions on contracting services to SB County factored into his 2008 hiring. He has vast experience with district consolidations and annexations throughout the West Coast and believed he was hired on in Carpinteria because of his expertise. He cautioned that a merger was no easy task. Boardmembers would have to bear in mind employee transitions and liabilities like banked leave pay and disability claims, capital asset transactions that would be part of the deal as well as juggling administrative redundancies. Aside from the tangled web of absorption into another district, Mingee warned that consolidation also meant some sacrifice of local control. A couple hypotheticals he posed were questions about a consolidated dispatch model knowing the area. “Would they know Jellybowl Beach?” he asked. He also questioned whether the county would deploy local resources outside the area. “If Santa Barbara County has a HAZMAT situation in Buellton, what are they going to take from Carpinteria?” He also said that relinquishing the taxing authority of the district in a time of a healthy budget was a questionable step. He advised boardmembers that the question of how best the local district constituents will be served was the chief consideration. Boardmember Pete Thompson said, “We need a station. We need a chief. There are a lot of balls in the air. In this disarray, there’s opportunity.” Thompson and other boardmembers agreed that during

organization better than most. The current board is considering consolidation with the Santa Barbara County Fire Department. While it’s prudent to look for opportunities to improve within an organization, I do not see any justification now for consolidation. The Fire District is financially sound now and should remain so. Similar to what has occurred in the City of Carpinteria with respect to the Sheriff’s contract, if we consolidated there would be no local control of costs, which we can expect to rise. Likewise, local community interests would be overshadowed by the county and our taxpayer voices will be stifled. We would be but one department among many operated by those outside our district. Firefighters are interested in consolidation, but the responsibility of the board is to the tax paying citizens, who should be the ones to request it. Secondly, other options should be considered. I have a number of proposals that I believe are superior to consolidation. I find it curious that the board is considering an interim chief from the outside, who happens to be the recently retired county fire chief. Would this have anything to do with consolidation with county fire? It does not look good on the surface. If you open up the position to the outside, it should be opened to all. In closing, I have worked for five fire chiefs here, and Chief Mingee was by far the best. It is truly regrettable that the state of the department has led to his untimely departure. Honest, hard-working fire chiefs who truly care for their own community are not easily replaced. We should all thank Chief Mingee for his extraordinary service.

I read with dismay the proposal recently made by Canalino School Principal Jamie Persoon to the school board. We moved to Carpinteria two years ago with our two young children for the small town charm and relatively good schools. We hope to buy our first home this year. Now, after reading the proposal by Persoon, we are considering moving to Santa Barbara. The idea of our children, once they are of age for kindergarten, being taught 90 percent of the time in Spanish is truly perverse. Unless I am mistaken, the language of this country, state, county and city is English, not Spanish. English is an international language of business; Spanish is not. Yes, learning a second language is important at some point, but instructing these children in Spanish 90 percent of the year for all subjects is a tragedy. Why force the English speakers in the class to learn Spanish and not the other way around? The Spanish speakers need to learn English to survive and thrive in this country. It is not the other way around. None of these children need to learn Spanish. English immersion
is the only way to real economic success of all of these children, not the other way around. The real irony of this is that when the Persoon ancestors came here from Holland, they learned English as quick as they could, got a good education and worked hard to build their success. They did not expect us to cater to them and force all of their neighbor’s children to learn Dutch. The goal of education is to help children learn, grow and become successful adults. Distracting the learning process by teaching everyone in Spanish will not serve this goal; it will have the exact opposite effect. We will not be living here if this becomes the direction of our schools.

(Editor’s note: Dual language immersion, as detailed in the story “Canalino preps for dual language program,” CVN, May 28, is a voluntary program proposed for select classrooms.)
Teacher salaries benefit students
I am writing in regards to the recent issue of teachers’ salaries and healthcare. In Carpinteria, it is obvious that teaching is more than a job to teachers. Teachers devote their lives to students and teach us to think for ourselves. Although teachers do not get paid for most extracurricular contributions, they participate in most events anyway. Many of my teachers prioritize school events over personal occasions. This being said, it is blatantly unfair to continue underpaying the teachers. The actions the school board is taking to accommodate miscellaneous interests are insensitive and insulting. Teachers are willing to devote themselves to the education and lives of the students, because they feel secure in their positions. Less pay and minimal health care services will destroy the student-teacher relationships, and the special small-town community in Carpinteria. In last week’s board meeting, the board challenged students to not be biased toward teachers and to take a broader approach to the issue. This challenge seemed insulting to students. We felt like we were being told that we were not educated on the issue enough to advocate for our teachers. We are not advocating for our teachers because of popular opinion or because of the relationships we have with them, but because we have been informed of the issue in detail and believe that our teachers deserve better. This issue goes beyond affecting teachers, it will hurt the future students also. Students are supposed to be the priority, yet it seems that teachers are the only ones who uphold that priority. We need teachers to continue being more than advisors, and good healthcare and sufficient wages make this possible. Fighting for what we believe is part of who we are as Warriors, and is the only way to improve the future of education.

School board introduces new superintendent By Lea Boyd
By unanimous vote of the board of education, Micheline Miglis was appointed as the Carpinteria Unified School District’s new superintendent at a board meeting on May 26. Miglis grew up and attended schools in Oxnard. Until accepting the job at CUSD, she worked as the superintendent of Plumas County Unified School District and Office of Education. “We are so lucky to have her as our new superintendent,” said Board President Andy Sheaffer as he introduced Miglis. “I was smitten from the moment we interviewed you, and I’m so excited because your charm and your energy and your personality are going to go so far in our district.” “I’m honored that you’ve chosen me,” she said. “I will count on you to help me make sure that we don’t let anybody down, especially our parents and families that trust us with their children.”
Negotiation nightmare comes to board meeting
Contract negotiations with teachers have dragged on longer than usual this year, and an agreement remains elusive. On May 26, impassioned teachers pleaded to the board for fair wages, full healthcare coverage and a safety clause in their contracts. “We’re the teachers of your children,” said Aliso School teacher Gretchen Tofflemire. “We’re asking to be shown respect in a way that honors our commitment to making your students’ and your children’s education the best possible.” Teachers argue that the district is holding too tightly to unnecessarily high reserves while they are unfairly denied adequate raises and at risk of having their healthcare coverage capped. Regular growth to district revenues in the wake of the Great Recession should provide the financial support for higher salaries, teachers maintain. “I value our teachers,” said longtime board member Terry Hickey Banks. “I also value making sure that we can pay the bills. You can’t spend your savings account on an ongoing expense year after year after year because the savings run out.” Healthcare coverage amounted to $17,300 per teacher this year, and next year’s rates are set to rise to over $18,000. Increases in property tax revenues are gobbled up by the rising cost of health-
care, as well as hikes to teacher retirement funds mandated by the state, Assistant Superintendent Cindy Abbott reported. “It’s really easy to couch this as teachers versus the board of education, but that’s too simple. It’s not that simple,” said school board member Jaclyn Fabre. Coastal View News will report more fully on the issue of teacher contract negotiations in next week’s edition.
School board public comment rings emotional
• Tessa Nash, mother of a Canalino School kindergartner with special needs, voiced her frustration over inconsistent services provided to her son and a lack of communication from the district’s director of special education. Nash claimed that her son has not been meeting weekly with a speech therapist, as dictated by his Individualized Education Program, and was not provided with a regular and consistent aid in the classroom, another element of his IEP. “The proof is in my son’s regression and recent behavior,” she said of the consequences to the shortfalls in services. • Cindy Rief, special education teacher, described to the board a 2014 incident in which an adult student made threats to stab and kill Rief, a classroom aid and two students while he was in a psychiatric facility. Rief and the families of the students filed complaints over the way the district responded to the incident, but an investigation found no wrongdoing, Rief reported. “Why am I reliving this horror now? Because so little has changed. If the same threat occurred tomorrow, we would still be vulnerable and unsupported because the school board refused to contractualize safety policies and protocols. This leaves students and staff vulnerable and frustrated and disheartened,” she said. • Jamie Diamond, mother of secondgrader and an incoming kindergartner at Canalino School, beseeched the board to add new teachers at Canalino, where class sizes exceed those on other district campuses. “I’m shaking because my daughter’s going into kindergarten next year, and she’s going to drown. She’s going to be overwhelmed in a class of 30 kids,” Diamond said. “We need more teachers; we need more classrooms.”

Student survey says schools very safe
Carpinteria public schools outrank most of the state when it comes to providing an environment where students feel safe and supported. That’s the message that Sharon Velarde, director of special projects, shared with the CUSD board of education on May 26 based on results of the 2014 California Healthy Kids Survey. The survey, conducted every other year, asks students to rate their relationship with their school and its staff and to give information about bullying, on-campus violence and substance abuse. The 2014 results include an overall assessment of the district—a new element to the survey—which placed Carpinteria middle and high schools in the 99th percentile among all state schools and among schools of similar size and demographics. Safety appears to be on the rise at Carpinteria High School where ninth-graders who reported fighting in the last year dropped from 19 percent in 2012 to 10 percent in 2014. The drop at 11th grade was even more pronounced, from 22 percent to 7 percent. Bullying numbers also fell on the campus over the last two years. Conversely, more high school students reported to drinking in the most recent survey. The rise among 11th-graders was from 7 percent to 25 percent. Seven percent of ninth-graders in 2012 said they had consumed one alcoholic drink in the last 30 days, while 11 percent of 2014’s ninth-graders said they had. Velarde emphasized that binge drinking numbers were very low. ––Lea Boyd

Coastal View News • Carpinteria, California
Water rate reworking leads to slight budget shortfall
The Carpinteria Valley Water District went back to the drawing board with its rates last month after a legal ruling in Orange County raised fears that the district, along with several others in California, would be vulnerable to lawsuits for its conservation-aimed tiered rate structure. On the evening of June 3, after Coastal View News went to print, the water board considered adjusting rates slightly to steer clear of legal troubles. The revisions were projected to reduce district revenues by $130,000. The proposed 2015-2016 CVWD budget contains nearly $500,000 in expenditures above the current year’s budget. It earmarks $1.4 million in drought expenditures, including $30,500 for a water conservation coordinator, $225,000 more in utility costs for higher groundwater production, $260,000 for potential spot
market purchases of water, $462,000 for state water delivery, $325,110 for the barge and pump that will be necessary to access Cachuma water and $80,000 for various rebate programs and public outreach. The restructuring of water rates changes the district’s initial proposal only slightly. All water rates are still proposed to go up, and households across the district will see their bills increase from about $10 to $30 depending on which tier of water usage they fall under. The revised tiered rates are based on the variable costs of the district’s three water sources. Groundwater is least expensive, Cachuma water is in the mid-range and State Water Project delivery costs the most. ––Lea Boyd

Obituary
Nora Goodman
February 6/7, 1918 – June 1, 2015 “Love lives on in His care” Nora will be remembered as a joyful soul, living out loud Psalm 18:24: “This is a day the Lord hath made, let us rejoice and be glad in it.” Nora was born Elenora Katharina to Wilhelm and Emilie Milberger in Galatia, Kan. on February 6 and 7; the doctor ’s slow horse and buggy caused a day’s delay so her birth certificate was dated the seventh—a good reason, Nora said, to celebrate her birthday on both days. Nora graduated in 1941 from Kansas State Teacher’s College and taught kindergarten for the next 36 years until she retired from Montebello School District. Shortly after moving to the Golden State she met her “Bill” and married in 1946. They became parents with the birth of Kristine Lyn and Scott Lynn. Upon
retirement in July 1977, Nora and Bill moved to Carpinteria, Calif., along with Nora’s elderly mother. She offered her home as a “retreat by the sea” for family and friends and was a beloved Nana to her grandchildren. She encouraged them to “see the world” and realized her own dream to travel by visiting Japan. Later she landscaped her yard into a Japanese garden that was featured on a Better Homes and Gardens Show. Nora was an artist and especially enjoyed oil painting. Nora was a member of the Carpinteria Community Church Women’s Association and the Carpinteria Investment Club, a docent at the Carpinteria Valley Historical Museum, and vice-president of the Carpinteria Seniors. Nora was preceded in death by her husband, William L. Goodman, her parents, her sister, Frieda, and her brothers, Paul, Clarence, Wally, Ernie and Don. She is survived by her children Kristine Watkins (Ron) and Scott Goodman (Kim), her grandchildren Aubry Watkins Briggs, Bradley Watkins, Kristen Goodman, Craig Goodman and Bill Goodman (Tracey) and great-grandchildren Jake, Brenna and Lexi.

Summerland’s red, white and blue days the summerland shore FRAN DAVIS
Flags are flying the length of Lillie Avenue—Main Street USA in Summerland. The star-spangled banners wave from Memorial Day weekend through the 4th of July. A few years ago the Summerland Beautiful committee purchased the small flags, along with poles to be mounted on all the light standards. Funds for the enterprise dried up when the committee folded, and the flags were in danger of languishing. This year Summerland local Bob Lomonaco volunteered to spearhead the enterprise. Those of us who left town for the holiday returned to see our downtown festooned in red, white and blue. Lomonaco is the good Samaritan who cleared a large section of Memorial Park for the placement of a boulder and plaque—which he also arranged—honoring Bob Duncan. Duncan was well-loved in Summerland as the man who moved a monument. His drive and determination succeeded in getting the World War I monument moved from an almost hidden spot to its prime location in the middle of Summerland. Lomonaco, who now maintains the monument’s tall flagpole, does Duncan proud. He’s taken over the care, mounting and dismounting of the several dozen flags now flying. Thanks to him, our downtown shines.
Dipping your hands in oil
Local photographer Reeve Woolpert, who specializes in stunning photos of the Gaviota Coast, was at Refugio the day of
the spill. Pictures of him, oil smeared and holding a black bundle barely recognizable as a pelican, appeared in the Ventura Star, the L.A. Times and the Independent. His eloquent first-person recounting of his frustration with the slowness of the “official” response and the pelican rescue were published in the Independent’s online edition. It’s worth the read, providing as it does, a citizen’s eye view of the spill and the response. Along with the heart-breaking pelican picture. Visit the Independent’s website and look for it. Woolpert snapped quite a few photos, including oil running over a bare rockface to the beach, before stashing his camera to undertake a rescue operation. He’d spotted the oil-covered bird earlier and kept trying to find a marine rescue official who could go and get it. Frustrated, he finally carted the tarred bird up the hill himself and found help. He stated that he believed the photos of the first real responders, ordinary people in T-shirts and flip flops trying to clean up the beach and perform rescues, “struck people in a more profound way,” generating empathy around the world. As for the pelican, Woolpert commented, “At some point you realize you’re the only one who can help, so you get wet.” He gave that bird the name Brea and hoped it survived.
“Shrek” for the whole family
“Shrek,” Summerland School’s annual stage production, premiers Friday evening, June 5 at 6:30 p.m. The play, officially “Shrek The Musical Jr.,” takes
place at Carpinteria Children’s Project at Main. A second staging will occur the following day, the 6th, at 1 p.m. Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for children 10 and under. Food sales, a bake sale and a silent auction of student artwork will accompany the event. I try never to miss Summerland’s allschool productions that involve every single kid from the smallest to the tallest. They’re so loaded with good fun, high energy, clever staging and kids acting and singing their hearts out that they infuse audiences with the same kind of heartexpanding joy. I hear that students have been in the “heat of rehearsals” for the past month, and that their favorite song from the play is “Fly Your Freak Flag.” Students Francis Bennett, ella Bailey, Lily Young, Regoberto Perez and Nicole Degliam star in the main roles, supported by the entire student body. Lazer Schlomkovitz of the Children’s Creative Project has again returned to direct this production.
No flush zone
Don’t flush those meds is one of the messages from the Summerland Sanitary District, and it bears repeating. Never flush pharmaceuticals because they can go right through the waste water treatment process and into the ocean where
they contaminate fish, including the seafood we eat. All unwanted medications should be taken to a medical office or to one of the three CVS pharmacies in Santa Barbara that accept them. I always enjoy the bulletins put out by Mike Sullivan, manager of our sanitary district. The latest one urges us not to use our toilets as trashcans. His treatment plant has a hard time contending with things like diapers, syringes, condoms, pill bottles, toys, cigarette butts and more. There’s so little water flowing down our drains these days I don’t know how these bulkier things make it down to the plant, but they do. Gravity, I guess. And they make Mike Sullivan’s job harder. He also warns that a leaky toilet can waste more than 100 gallons of water a day and says you can test this by putting a few drops of food coloring in your tank and watching to see if the bowl water colors. Good tip in these water-scarce days. One good thing: The outpouring of sympathy and help after an environmental catastrophe. Fran Davis is an award-winning writer and freelance editor whose work appears in magazines, print and online journals, anthologies and travel books. She has lived in Summerland most of her life.

Trash talk

Jan Silk’s Carpinteria Family School second and third graders found out where all the trash goes during a visit to Tajiguas Landfill in Santa Barbara. They saw the 500-foot-tall mountain that has been built like a “layer cake” of trash and soil since the 1940s.

What’s new at the harbor seal rookery? ADAM CAIRA
The following counts taken from May 25-31 were compiled from Carpinteria Seal Watch volunteer reports. Carpinteria harbor seal beach closure runs from Dec. 1 to June 1 each year. Seal Watch volunteers are still welcome to sign up by calling 684-2247.
High Adult Count
Visitors
396
High Pup Count
Pups are too large to reliably identify.
About 1,376 visits were recorded, including people from France, Russia, Germany, the United Kingdom, Venezuela, Japan, Nevada, Kansas, Missouri, Arizona, New York, Florida, Louisiana, Colorado and New Hampshire. Unusual marine visitors included over 50 one- to three-foot-long leopard sharks circling in Bert’s Cove.
Disturbances
A reminder that the federal Marine Mammal Protection Act prohibits disturbing the seals at any time of year whether or not the city ordinance closing the beach is in effect. Last week the seals were frightened into the ocean by oil industry activity three times, by beach walkers three times and by kayakers once.
Natural History Notes
Many questions were asked of volunteers relating to oil and tar seen on Carpinteria beaches. Tests are reported to be underway to determine if any deposits came from the recent oil spill. Oil and tar on Carpinteria beaches usually is attributed to both natural tar seeps and old improperly abandoned oil wells from the late 1800s and early 1900s. Examples of the latter are the recently capped oil well on the Carpinteria Bluffs Park, and—quite likely—seeps on the beach towards Rincon at the location of old drilling pipe exposed at low tide.

The Carpinteria harbor seal rookery is located immediately east of Casitas Pier, between the Carpinteria Bluffs Nature Preserve and Carpinteria State Beach. Please remember not to bring dogs, bicycles or loud voices to view the seals. Harbor seals, when disturbed, may flee and become separated from their pups. Volunteers ask that dogs remain outside the rope area at all times. Call 684-2247 or email sealwatch@hotmail.com if you are interested in volunteering.

Geoffrey Acheampong and Cate School boys soccer edged the Warriors in their two headto-heads this season. At season’s end, the teams were co-Tri-Valley League champions.
Cate takes 2014-2015 school year in crosstown rivalry Rams edge 12-9-1 BY PETER DUGRÉ
The rivalry between crosstown foes Cate School and Carpinteria High School ratcheted up a notch in the 2014-2015 season when Cate joined the Tri-County Athletic Association, the governing body of Tri-Valley and Frontier leagues. Most teams at the schools played twice per league season, and results always had higher stakes for final standings. Cate held the edge in head-to-head matchups 12-9-1. A couple of the more exhilarating matches were in boys water polo; Cate won both matches by a single goal. In girls tennis, Carpinteria High School won both by a total of two sets. The boys soccer teams ended up tying for the Tri-Valley League championship. Cate boys soccer won one, and the teams tied once. The girls basketball squads split their season series, and Cate’s dramatic win in the rematch earned the team a playoff berth. The boys volleyball teams split their series, and Cate’s rematch win marked the only blemish on the champion Warriors’ TVL league record. Cate athletic director Wade Ransom said he was impressed with the squads’ ability to transition to more competitive leagues from their former placement in Condor League, which is made up of mostly small private schools. On the match-up with CHS, he said, “Our kids are getting to know each other on the field, and they look forward to competing each year.” Cate girls volleyball, the CIF champion, had the best local season and recorded the program’s first ever victory in the state-level tournament.

Athletic director leaves Boys & Girls Club
The Carpinteria Boys & Girls Club announced this week that Javier Morales, a longtime supporter and current athletic director, will be stepping down from his formal duties at the club. Morales has spent five years with the organization and has worked with hundreds of local children. He orchestrated all of the sports leagues the club offers throughout the year in addition to spending his afternoons mentoring youth. Morales worked to promote good sportsmanship, safety and friendly competition within his sports leagues, Club Director Jamie Collins said. “Javier stepped in at the perfect time. The football program was on the way out, basketball needed some re-organizing and we didn’t offer any other options for organized sports. Javier was able to put life back into the Tackle Football program, boost participation in basketball and re-introduce cheerleading and indoor soccer,” Collins said. Morales plans to volunteer as a coach in the future. A new athletic director has not been hired yet, and applications will be accepted until June 12. For more information about the open position, email Collins at Jcollins@unitedbg.org.

A Bid shall not be considered unless one of the allowed forms of Bidder’s security is enclosed with it.

BIdS TO rEMAIN OPEN: The Bidder shall guarantee the Total Bid Price for a period of sixty (60) calendar days from the date of bid opening. ConTRACToR’S LiCEnSE CLASSiFiCATION: In accordance with the provi-
sions of California Public Contract Code Section 3300, the City has determined that the Bidder shall possess a valid Class A license at the time of the bid opening, time of award and at all times during performance of the Work. Failure to possess the specified license shall render the Bid as non-responsive and shall act as a bar to award of the Contract to any bidder not possessing such license at the time of the bid opening. A prebid meeting is scheduled for 10:00 AM, JUnE 15, 2014 at Carpinteria City Hall, 5775 Carpinteria Avenue, Carpinteria, CA This meeting is to inform bidders of project requirements and subcontractors of subcontracting and material supply opportunities. Bidder’s attendance at this meeting is highly advised but will not be mandatory. Bidders are hereby notified that pursuant to provisions of Sections l770. et seq, of the labor Code of the State of California, the Contractor shall pay its employees the general prevailing rate of wages as determined by the director of the department of Industrial relations. The latest prevailing wage rates are available from the California department of Industrial relations and by visiting the following website: http:// www.dir.ca.gov/oprl/2012-2/PWd/index. htm. In addition, the Contractor shall be responsible for compliance with requirements of Section l777.5 of the California labor Code relating to apprentices of public works contracts. Attention is directed to the Federal minimum wage rate requirements in the books entitled “Proposal and Contract.” If there is a difference between the minimum wage rates predetermined by the Secretary of labor and the general prevailing wage rates determined by the director of the California department of Industrial relations for similar classifications of labor, the Contractor and subcontractors shall pay not less than the higher wage rate. The department will not accept lower State wage rates not specifically included in the Federal minimum wage determinations. This includes “helper” (or other classifications based on hours of experience) or any other classification not appearing in the Federal wage determinations. Where Federal wage determinations do not contain the State wage rate determination otherwise available for use by the Contractor and subcontractors, the Contractor and subcontractors shall pay not less than the Federal minimum wage rate, which most closely approximates the duties of the employees in question. The Bidder shall comply with all applicable provisions of section 16100 to Title 8 of the California Code of regulations, which require Contractor to keep accurate records of the work performed as provided in labor Code section 1812, to allow City to inspect Bidder’s payroll records pursuant to labor Code section 1776 and section 16400(e) of Title 8 of the California Code of regulations, and to comply with all other requirements imposed by law.

Car squatter
A man walked by a coworker’s vehicle on Santa Monica Road and Via Real and noticed a person in the vehicle that wasn’t his coworker on May 22 at 2 p.m. The stroller thought he might be witnessing a crime and started to approach the vehicle but was cut off by a woman who attempted to strike up a conversation. The witness said he was going to call 9-1-1, so the chatty woman went mute and hightailed it up the road. The apparent burglar soon followed after her. The witness dialed his coworker to make sure nobody had been given permission to rummage through his vehicle. After verification that it wasn’t a legitimate burglar, the witness dialed 9-1-1. The witness told deputies he was certain the man and the woman were working in tandem because they had been in the restaurant where he worked before they 84-4981gained an appetite for crime. The vehicle TH ST owner visited the crime scene to discover that his $150 car stereo had been removed.
The officer uncovered numerous pieces of aluminum foil with burn marks on them, consistent with a method for smoking drugs. Additionally, there was a straw with a burned end, an accoutrement for smoking drugs from tinfoil. The glove box contained two digital scales and some nicknames written on a sheet of paper with figures that appeared like it could be a drug-dealing ledger. The passenger, 20, attempted to clear things up for the deputy. The scales, she said, were for her own protection. She used them to weigh her marijuana before purchasing to make sure she wasn’t being skimped. And the burnt straw was used for applying French manicures. The officer took the women’s heart rate readings and made other observations to gather evidence to support his suspicion that the women were under the influence of a central nervous system stimulant. They were both arrested.
The man in the driver’s seat explained that he had left the bar with the other two to shuttle them home, since he was the designated driver. Each of the vehicle occupants stepped out and told the same story of how they had innocently left the bar. However, the male passenger in the rear had a joint behind his ear. The deputy confiscated it, but the man showed the deputy his medical recommendation. Still, the deputy said there was probable cause to search the vehicle, which contained more than a joint and 40-ouncer. The rubber object was a meth pipe, which earned the driver, 46, a pair of handcuffs. The center console was dusted in white powder thought to be cocaine. The female passenger, 18, also had a cocaine-like substance in her purse. The underage woman also had an ID in her purse of a 23-year-old woman that bore a striking resemblance to her. It belonged to a friend of hers, she said. The officer figured the underage woman
likely used the ID of a friend to drink in the bar. She was also arrested for possession. None of the subjects owned the vehicle. Its rightful owner was inside the bar. The vehicle owner was contacted and said nobody had permission to take the vehicle, and she hadn’t even known her keys were gone. She knew the man who had been in the driver’s seat, and she didn’t believe he was attempting to steal the vehicle. It was more likely he was going to use it to find drugs, she said.

A deputy trailed a vehicle that had failed to stop before crossing over a sidewalk when exiting a driveway, a traffic code violation, and pulled it over off the Santa Monica Road freeway exit before finding there was more going on than rolling over sidewalks. The deputy found that the driver, an 18-year-old woman, was operating on a suspended license, a violation she claimed to be ignorant of but attributed possibly to her seizures. The aroma of marijuana led the deputy to ask to search the vehicle, and the women said it was fine.
extracurricular activities. He shined a light on a car with three people inside, and they appeared to scramble to conceal items in the vehicle at the sight of a lawman. The deputy approached the vehicle, and when a door opened, a waft of marijuana scent rushed the deputy. He spotted a 40-ounce beer bottle in a paper bag on the floor along with a rubber pipelooking device. The deputy asked about the beer, and the man grabbed it to show it was unopened but reportedly took the opportunity to shove the rubber thing under the seat.

Carpinteria Library recommendation
“The Hummingbird’s Daughter” by Luís Alberto Urrea
Teresita is born to a poor Indian mother, she knows little about her past or her future. She has no idea that her father is Don Tomas Urrea, the owner of a vast ranch in Sinaloa, Mexico. She has no idea that Huila, the elderly healer who takes Teresita under her wing, knows secrets about her destiny. And she has no idea that soon all of Mexico will rise in revolution, crying out her name. Teresita learns from Huila the way plants can cure the sick and prayer can move the earth. Then she discovers an even greater gift; she has the power to heal. Her touch melts pain and suffering. Such a gift can be a burden, too. Before long, the Urrea ranch is crowded with pilgrims and with agents of a Mexican government wary of anything that might threaten its power. This historical novel is based on the author’s great-aunt Teresita, who had healing powers and was revered as a saint. It is also the story of a girl coming to terms with her destiny. ––Tara O’Reilly, supervising library, Carpinteria Library, 5141 Carpinteria Ave.
Friends of the Library Used Book Store recommendation Gabriel Du Pre Mystery Series by Peter Bowen
A frequent customer at the FOL introduced me to this series and the Montana Metis hero, Gabriel Du Pre, cattle brand inspector and part time deputy. This hero lives in two worlds, that of the modern world and that of the cowboy. Peter Bowen’s prose perfectly captures the rugged landscape and the voice of each of his unique characters. From a trust fund baby to an ancient, ephemeral shaman, the people pull you into the story and live in the words. I found myself adopting some of the catch phrases of the characters as I completed the first in the series. I have read three of the Montana Mysteries, “Coyote,” “Specimen Song” and “Nails.” All three have diverse plots, rich in human drama and detail, which give you the sense of story and of place. Every character has a flaw or two, which only adds to the tale. There is humor, sorrow, regret—all the rainbow of human emotion with surprises just over the next hill. Complex, strong, reminiscent of Greek tragedies at times, Peter Bowen’s mysteries have gained my high recommendation. ––Susan Williams, volunteer, Friends of the Library Used Books Store, 5103 Carpinteria Ave.
Carpinteria Library Book Club
“Dream Angus” by Alexander McCall Smith

Carpinteria Library Book Club will meet to discuss the novel on Wednesday, June 17 at 7:30 p.m. at the library, 5141 Carpinteria Ave. The club is open to anyone interested in reading and talking about the book, copies of which are available for borrow at the library.

This fun creative writing exercise will change your life the write practice JOE BUNTING I’m sure this never happens to you, but there are times when I don’t feel very creative. We just had a new baby (our second), bought a house (our first), and are now busy managing a thousand new details. All the busywork and bill paying leaves me feeling pretty dry. But no matter how un-creative I’m feeling, there’s one exercise that never fails to fire up my writing.

The secret ingredient is play. But how do you play with writing? Two words: modernist poetry* Pioneered by poets like Ezra Pound and T.S. Eliot, modernist poetry often makes very little sense. And that’s what makes it such a great exercise. Because it allows you to play with words in a way that the perfectionistic side of your brain won’t be able to stop. *I’m of course using the term modernist poetry very loosely here. Good modernist poetry is about much more than random gibberish strung together.
5 steps to this writing exercise
I’ve broken it up into five steps so simple a 2-year-old could follow them: First, get out a blank page. Feel free to open a new document on your computer, get out a pen or a blank piece of paper, or even whip out your old-school typewriter (the preferred method!) Next, write the first word that comes to your mind. When I did this exercise this morning, the first word I thought of was “Bloom.” Why not?! So I wrote it down. Then, the hard part: write another word. Why is this hard? Because for
this exercise to work, the second word must be random and disconnected from the first. This will completely piss off that perfectionistic little writer in your head. Do it anyway! After you write the second word, write a third, fourth and so on. After a few words, you can start a new line. It doesn’t matter where you break the line. Just do it when it feels right. But don’t forget the most important step of all… PLAY. When you do this exercise, write with the sounds of words in mind, not their meaning. Make up new words. Try to come up with the most random noun you can. Then, put it next to a list of five verbs. Don’t use punctation (unless that sounds fun to you, of course).
Embarrassing example of my own attempts at this exercise
To give you a sense of how your poems might look, and to hopefully give you much room to improve upon, here is one of my attempts at this exercise (for humor’s sake, it’s best to read this aloud in the sincerest voice you can muster): bloom you folly seeking pinwheeling song stealers float your lilly feelings you round a hold and follow the starring problem holder Ready to write yours? Check the practice section for today’s exercise!
Why this creative writing exercise is genius
When you try to write badly, you free up your creativity and end up making surprising connections. Sure, parts of your poem will be horrible, embarrassing and never to be read again. But some lines will be much better than you expected. Finally, with your new playful spirit, you’ll be able to go back to your work in progress with a new level of creativity. How about you? Do you ever play with words?
