The 90-minute northbound 101 closure on the morning of Sept. 28 that rerouted rush hour traffic through Carpinteria was the result of a fatal collision involving a 2003 Suzuki motorcycle. The driver of the motorcycle, Jacob Franks from Nipomo, was killed after he crashed into two vehicles while traveling between the two lanes of the freeway near Santa Monica Road. Traffic was diverted to the Santa Monica Road off ramp for the duration of the investigation. It is unknown at this time if alcohol or drugs were a factor in the collision.

Bridge school holds seminar

The basics of bridge can be picked up in a day. With that in mind, the Pacific Bridge School will hold two, one-day seminars this month for anyone interested in learning the game. The classes will be held on Saturday, Oct. 22 and Sunday, Oct. 23, both from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. in Montecito. A relaxed and fun tutorial will be paired with a student handbook for reference, box lunch and homemade dessert, a wine raffle and goodie bags. The cost to attend is $65. To register or find out more, contact Carole@ pacificbridgeschool.com or call 453-9701.

Avofest: All grown up!

Festival evolves from 1987 to 2016

A few decades ago, a group of Carpinterians came together with an idea to honor the valley’s biggest agricultural product and bring new faces and new wallets to town.

Many months and hundreds of hours of planning later, the first Avocado Festival was born on Oct. 3 and 4, 1987. Organizers called the event an overwhelming success but acknowledged that as the first of its kind, the festival could be improved in years to come. Attendance fell short of expectations and many of those who attended failed to pay the $2 admission price. As a result, the festival landed in the red by nearly $10,000, and fueled some opposition to a second festival in 1988. Needless to say, the second festival took place and the third and fourth, and now the town is preparing for the 30th Annual California Avocado Festival this weekend.

1987: Festival Committee President Debbie Murphy led a group of 40 committee chairs to get the first festival off the ground.

2016: The California Avocado Festival is now a 501c3 nonprofit organization whose Board of Directors is made up of President Gary Dobbins, Gregg Carty, Heather Jenkins, Eydie Kaufman, Mike Lazaro, Emily Miles and Anthony Staal.

Dobbins, Carty and Lazaro have all served on the board for over 25 years.

1987: The first festival was open Saturday and Sunday, closing nightly at 5 p.m. to avoid the need for lighting.

2016: The festival now opens on Friday afternoon and stays open Friday and Saturday nights until 10 p.m.

Carpinteria Herald published this photo in 1989 of organizers and the poster for that year.

1987: The $2 admission to the first Avofest raised about $12,000. There was a single admission booth near Carpinteria and Linden avenues. Many Carpinterians decried the fee, and organizers estimated at least 60 percent of the attendees snuck in through side streets or parking lots.

4858 & 4848 5th St.

2016: Attending the festival has been free since 1988.

1987: Festival organizers had no idea how many people their brand new event would draw. They prepared for hordes by having the city permit a 7,500-space temporary parking lot on the bluffs east of City Hall.

2016: Carpinteria High School serves as overflow parking. Shuttle buses transport visitors to and from the festival throughout the day.

1987: The festival cost about $50,000 to hold. Overspending due to overestimates of crowd size landed the first festival about $10,000 in the red.

2016: The festival now costs about $250,000. Organizers recoup costs through corporate sponsorships, merchandise sales, ice cream and beer sales, and booth fees.

Boardmember Mike Lazaro said the festival operates “lean and mean,” but makes enough money to award several scholarships to local students annually.

The reason for the season

By Christian Beamish The Avocado Festival comes to Carpinteria each fall with bands, beers, vendors and thronging crowds. Yet the festival remains a locals’ celebration, with the sense that even if most Carpinterians never set foot in an orchard, they nevertheless have an abiding appreciation for the tradition of avocado ranching and the part it plays in shaping the community. As the city prepares for the 30th annual festival, a look at the issues facing growers in the Carpinteria Valley suggests that while there is a lot to celebrate, there are also areas of concern as well.

Agriculture is the number one economic contributor to Santa Barbara County, generating $2.8 billion annually via a “multiplier effect” of associated business activity and creating more than 25,000 jobs. Although avocados represent only 4 percent of the county’s agricultural output, the 2015 crop made nearly $47 million. With many of Goleta’s orchards having been “stumped” (trees cut down to the main branches and left dormant though kept alive with a minimum of irrigation), Carpinteria has kept mostly normal production levels due to the area’s relative abundance of groundwater.

A conversation with ranching partners and brothers-in-law Tim Bliss—who shares the title of 2016 Avofest honorary chair with his wife, Ginny—and Tim MacMurray illustrated some of the challenges local growers face. These challenges, the same ones that ranchers and farmers have always struggled with in weather and market price fluctuations, now include an international component with the majority of the avocado industry dominated by Mexico. But it wasn’t until 1994 and the passage of the North American Free Trade Act, along with some tough negotiations between the governments of Mexico and the United States that included a trade embargo on U.S. corn until Mexican avocados were permitted in the U.S. market, that the impact of avocado production south of the border began to be felt.

“Avocado prices are determined by Mexico,” Bliss said. And MacMurray added, “Now that the U.S. harvest has been sold, they (Mexico) own the market for the next six months.” Each year sees increased demand for the nutritious fruit, with 2.32 billion pounds consumed domestically in 2015. According to industry reports, per capita consumption of avocados in the U.S. has followed a variable but generally increasing trend since 1970, increasing significantly from 1.1 pounds per capita in 1989 to a record 7 pounds per capita in 2014. And it’s no wonder, as health conscious Americans look to benefit from the “good” fats and oils in avos, as well as the high levels of B vitamins, vitamin E, vitamin K and folate. Avocados are also a benefit to a diabetic diet.

In addition to market pressures from Mexico and the Dominican Republic, the number one and two producers respectively, growers in California continue to face a seemingly unrelenting drought.

“Driving through Carpinteria Valley,” Bliss said, “the trees look the worst they ever have.” MacMurray observed, “The rains wash the salts out, but with no rain the leaves turn brown.” Bliss added, “Rainwater is basically distilled water.”

The saving grace, at least for Bliss and MacMurray, is that they have their own wells. “Fortunately, we’ve got excellent wells—low sodium and chlorides. We haven’t had salt intrusion; there’s been no change in our wells (in terms of salts). We test (the water) once a year. But the water levels are dropping” said Bliss. “Some of the wells may start to get more salt as the water level drops.” MacMurray noted, “The biggest issue is whether to put water

on the trees from the (water) district, or well water.”

With 14 to 15 months between the time the fruit first “sets” in small clusters that look like little green BBs and harvest, a lot can go wrong. Pests in the form of boring bugs and root fungus, extremes of heat and cold, or high winds can damage trees and significantly reduce harvests. The harvest in California occurs

from south to north, with growers in San Diego typically picking in February and March, and Carpinteria harvesting in April. “The prices weren’t great this year,” Bliss said, “and the harvest didn’t start early in San Diego.” He pointed out that “everyone picked (at the same time) and we were done a month early.” There was an abundance of fruit at one time, MacMurray said, which is never helpful

when trying to sell a commodity.

Indeed, challenges abound in avocado ranching, but none more than water. “As a farmer, water is lifeblood.” Bliss said.

“The number in my head,” Bliss said, “is that we need 2.5 acre feet of water per year, and we either get that through rain or irrigation.” Bliss added that next year he will consider stumping.

For perspective, one acre-foot equals about 326,000 gallons, or enough water to cover an acre of land, about the size of a football field, one foot deep. An average California household uses between onehalf and one acre-foot of water per year for indoor and outdoor use.

MacMurray brought up another reality: “A lot of people are drilling (wells) deeper.” Bliss continued, “It’s a tough public policy issue.” Yet beyond considerations of acre feet of water and the ups and downs of the marketplace, avocado ranching is a way of life. “You get to know every tree in the orchard,” Bliss said. “I have three trees that turned yellow in late July/ early August, then they started greening up again. I can’t figure out what’s going on, but I’m sure it’s drought related.”

Falling short on facts

School Board President Andy Sheaffer continued to mislead the community in two different forums during the month of September: the Sept. 13 School Board Meeting and in the Sept. 15 issue of Coastal View News.

In both forums, Sheaffer misrepresented the facts around Proposition 55, the single best opportunity to increase revenues for public education in California. After being shamed into action, the CUSD School Board finally acknowledged its responsibility to endorse the proposition. It didn’t do so before Sheaffer grossly mischaracterized the proposition to the community, stating that the proposition provides one-time monies and that the revenues cannot be used for compensation and benefits. Both of these statements are inaccurate. To the first mistruth, Proposition 55 would collect tax revenues and then pay these revenues out on a yearly basis. This would happen for each of the next 12 years successively.

Clearly, that is not “one-time money” as stated by Sheaffer. In regard to the second mistruth, Proposition 55 monies can absolutely be used to cover employee salaries. They cannot, however, be used to fund administrative salaries, increases or bonuses of any kind.

Unfortunately, Sheaffer’s deception doesn’t stop there. In his letter to the community, he suggests that neither Prop 30 (passed in 2012) nor Prop 55 (this year’s potential extension of Prop 30) “guarantees CUSD regular revenue.”

Once again, Sheaffer’s statement is inaccurate. The facts are clear, as provided by the state of California. As a result of Prop 30, CUSD received the following annual revenue increases: $447,048 in 2012-13, $437,904 in 2013-14, $435,458 in 2014-15, $431,988 in 2015-16 and $431,988 201617. The same would be true annually for the next 12 years. Please get your facts straight, Mr. Sheaffer, when addressing our community regarding important matters which significantly impact the children of CUSD.

SAVE THE DATE!

We know Fred Shaw well, having for many years worked closely with him on Carpinteria Beautiful issues, and having watched him grow, indeed blossom, as a member of our City Council for the past four years. We urge you to join us in reelecting him for a well deserved second term.

We admire and respect Fred for the many wonderful qualities that he has in abundance: He is open minded, thoughtful, communicates clearly and well, and is a superb listener (truly a lost art). He works hard studying the issues that

Among his many accomplishments are having (1) acted as our council liaison (and board member) to HopeNet, successfully working to bring county mental health services to Carpinteria for the first time; (2) strongly urged the City to write to the SLO Planning Commission, requesting that they not permit a Phillips 66 rail spur project that would increase oil train traffic through Carpinteria; (3) advocated for City involvement in the Community Choice Energy program, which will allow us to select what type of energy we use; and (4) consistently advocated for women and minorities on boards and commissions.

Simply stated: Fred truly cares. He is totally committed to working hard and smartly to preserve our small beach town character.

Book angel gets her wings

Years ago Pat Durham, longtime Friends of the Library volunteer said, “Read this” and handed a book to me. “Pat, I don’t like mysteries.” “You’ll like this,” she declared. Reads of dozens of Donna Leon’s Venetian mysteries proved Pat right. She knew I love Paris so she proffered “French Dirt, Paris My Sweet” and many more really good books. When Pat handed me a book, I put down my current read. I knew her choice would be better. Over the years, Pat had honed her choices and they never failed to reveal her uncanny spot-on ability to match books to readers.

Blair is best choice for school board

Some of the biggest challenges Carpinteria will face involve our schools—their direction, financial issues and employee negotiations. There will be a need for a balanced collaborative approach, with the ability to deftly manage personalities.

There is one candidate for school board that has that experience and a proven track record—Gary Blair.

Gary is the father of twin daughters attending Carpinteria High School. He is active in many aspects of CHS. More important is his experience. He holds a UCSB Master’s Degree in Public and Social Affairs. He was appointed by the judges as the Santa Barbara County Superior Court Executive Officer in 1979.

This was a very challenging time for the

court since this key leadership position had been left vacant for over one year.

For the next 34 years Gary oversaw the growth, development and positive direction of the Santa Barbara County Court system. This included developing and overseeing budgets, employee/union negotiations, project construction, and most importantly, managing many different personalities in a productive and progressive manner.

I have witnessed Gary’s calm and measured approaches to problems not only as the Santa Barbara Court’s Executive Officer, but in many other areas. I have seen him work as a coach to our daughters playing softball and later as he supported CHS athletics. I have watched him as an active community member championing many different programs. I have watched as he became involved in our schools and the issues we are facing as parents to CHS students and as community members. School districts throughout the state and the nation are struggling to navigate these difficult economic times.

Local school districts are experiencing significant budgetary crises. Gary is a candidate with the necessary experience and is ready to address all the issues that the district’s school board is facing now and in the future. He will be a valuable asset to our community.

BOB FRANCO for

CARPINTERIA CITY COUNCIL Part one:

“WATER”

Dear Carpinterians, I would love to speak with each one of you individually, but this is not possible. Therefore I am writing this, the first of two open letters, to inform you of what I hope to achieve if elected to our City Council. There are many threatening issues and problems that have been neglected too long and should be addressed immediately.

If we continue to ignore them as we have, they will affect our lives and community forever. I am just as concerned as the other candidates about our schools, the bluffs, fracking, affordable housing, seniors, homelessness and making our community a safe and better place to live. However, two items are paramount in their importance to our community. I should say first, that I have been self-educating myself for almost 25 years on how limited water, climate change, pollution and sea-level rise will affect our community now and in the future. I am certainly no scientist but this is what I think climate scientists have been trying to warn us about for years.

Water is number one. Water is life. Unfortunately because of a disastrous 5 year drought, for the first time in our history we have run out of water from our main source at Lake Cachuma. There is not a drop of water in the lake that belongs to us. Lake Cachuma is now just a conduit for state water.

Make no mistake about it, we are on the brink of an unprecedented water crisis and yet no one has sounded an alarm. No one has informed us on how or when to prepare for such a severe water shortage.

Why have our city officials and city council been so strangely silent on this most serious of issues?

What I fear the most is when Lake Cachuma is reduced to under 12,000 acre feet it will become a “deadpool” and more difficult to withdraw our already insufficient allotment of state water. And we still have to pay for it whether we are able to withdraw it or not.

Our water district GM says we may have about a year and a half left before we will have to start relying entirely on our groundwater unless rainfall returns to normal. It would be devastating to rely entirely on our groundwater as it would require everyone to use less than half the water you normally use and the drought surcharge will go up drastically. It is hard to believe that we have not done more to develop new sources of water considering how long it takes to develop a new source. We have never in our history been in such an ominous situation. Imagine if you will, having to cut your own water usage in half and paying more. As an example, my wife and I use 3 units of water a month. One unit of water is about 750 gallons, so we use 2250 gallons of water a month or 75 gallons of water a day between us. We have no lawn or trees and just a few shrubs which we water with saved shower water.

We only use water for cooking, laundry and personal hygiene. So, halving our water usage would have a devastating effect on the quality of our lives as it would on the lives of everyone else in our community.

What about seniors, the infirm and children. How do you tell them there is no more water?

Another example, Santa Catalina Island just recently entered a stage three drought alert.

This means that they must cut their daily usage by 50% and rates have skyrocketed, but they have also taken the initiative. They have embarked on desalinization and even use sea water to flush their toilets.

For us, severe conservation measures will be our only option while new alternative water sources such as recycled water, desalinization of our large brackish aquifer, new reservoirs, storm water capture and other sources are developed to supplement our precious groundwater. The problem is that these alternative measures take years to come to fruition and time is running short. There is a page on the Carpinteria Valley Association website that reads: “What if you turn on the tap and nothing comes out”.

That time is closer than you think. I believe our community needs a gut-wrenching reality check about how severe the state of our water is. If elected as your council member, I will make sure that everyone understands exactly the gravity our situation and to help you understand how our responses to limited water resources and climate change are going to directly affect your life and the lives of your family in the years and decades to come. I have sounded the first alarm.

Ask the Candidates

Carpinteria City Council

If the City of Carpinteria were a body, its hardworking departments would be the hands and the City Council would be the decision-making brain. In this year’s election, Carpinterians will vote in two councilmembers from among the three candidates competing for the seats. Wade Nomura and Fred Shaw have served for four years and hope to serve another four. Bob Franco has thrown his hat in the ring in pursuit of a seat as well.

This week, Ask the Candidates launches with an introduction written by each candidate. Over the next three weeks, the candidates will answer a series of questions to give voters an opportunity to get to know them better.

Next week’s question:

This year the city began a multi-year process to update Carpinteria’s Master Plan. The document will plot the city’s course for the next 20 years and guide decisions on land use, recreation, traffic circulation and natural resources. How would you like to see Carpinteria 20 years from now? What do you foresee as challenges to that vision?

Wade Nomura

I have been an active member of the Carpinteria community since bringing my family here 40 years ago. After receiving a bachelor’s degree in horticulture from Cal Poly SLO, I started a local landscape contracting business, which I continue to manage.

My commitment to public service includes over 20 years of continuous service on the Architectural Review Board and on the Carpinteria City Council. I have been actively involved in reviewing neighborhood and city planning guidelines, and projects for Carpinteria. I also serve as President of the Carpinteria Boys & Girls Foundation, have 30 years of coaching youth sports, and am a member of the Carpinteria Chamber. I am a member and Past President of the Rotary Club of Carpinteria Morning, 2011-2012 Rotary International District Governor, and was the project general coordinator of the Tomol Interpretive Play Area. I have traveled the world supporting water and sanitation projects, polio eradication efforts, and community and economic development, and received Rotary International’s highest individual honor, the “Service Above Self” award for volunteerism in and outside of Rotary.

In January of 2012, I was honored to be named Carpinterian of the Year with my wife, Roxanne, for our community involvement.

My public service and business experience, as well as my familiarity with the city government, will help me make wellrounded decisions as a councilmember.

I will support Carpinteria’s commitment to preserving our environmental treasures, champion programs that teach children how to become leaders in our community, and sustain our small beachtown charm.

Bob Franco

I was born in Carpinteria in 1941 in a small house on Elm Street. Having lived here most of my life, I believe I can say that I have a very good perspective of what the needs of our community are.

I attended local schools Aliso and Main and graduated from Carpinteria High School in 1959. After graduation I had experiences in different occupations and retired from the aerospace industry in 2000. I served as a Carpinteria planning commissioner for two years. My wife, Elene, and I have been married for 40 years. We have four children, all of whom graduated from our local schools, which I consider to be among the best in our state.

The reason I am running for Carpinteria City Council is that I am deeply committed to the future of our community. I am very concerned about housing, the bluffs, schools, seniors, homelessness and many other local issues. But, these are secondary in comparison with what we are about to face with limited water resources, including what we will face with climate change. The first and most important issue is our limited supply of water. Lake Cachuma is drying up and that will affect our future tremendously.

Eventually, we will have to rely entirely on our groundwater and this will cause serious health concerns because our city leaders have not prepared us for this crisis. If elected, my priority will be to find ways to establish permanent, safe and affordable sources of potable water.

Carpinteria Valley Water District

Water is always a hot topic in Carpinteria, and it’s grown even hotter as drought years pile up and each predicted El Niño disappoints. This year voters will choose two directors for the Carpinteria Valley Water District.

Three candidates, including incumbent Polly Holcombe, vie for two seats—Holcombe’s and that of retiring longtime director June Van Wingerden.

Coastal View News kicks off Ask the Candidates by inviting each prospective water board member to introduce herself/himself.

Over the following three weeks, we’ll find out more about candidates by asking them to respond to a series of questions related to the future of water in Carpinteria.

Next week’s question:

Carpinteria Valley Water District could sell a portion of its 2,000 Acre Foot State Water Project allotment to reduce customer bills or fund new projects such as a recycled water project. The concept, however, is not popular with some of the district’s customers who say that CVWD should retain full access to all its water sources. Where do you stand on this issue?

Case Van Wingerden

In 1967, I emigrated from Holland to the Carpinteria Valley with my family.

My wife Jennie and I have lived here for 40 years, where we have raised our children and currently enjoy watching our grandchildren grow up. For the past 45 years, I have built and run a family farming business growing a variety of

Fred Shaw

It is a privilege to serve the City of Carpinteria as your councilmember. After moving here with my wife and son 18 years ago I immersed myself in the fabric of the community. Four years ago I felt ready to increase my involvement, ran for City Council, and won.

During my first term I have seen how much our council can accomplish. Rather than pursuing City revenue through expansion of oil drilling, I advocated for resource neutral industry, like Lynda. com and Procore, growing Carpinteria businesses and city revenues. Always looking for ways to expand our open space, we are working to acquire Bluffs III, in association with the Santa Barbara Land Trust and Citizens for the Carpinteria Bluffs. I am part of the movement to increase bicycle and pedestrian alternatives in our City. With creative planning we can expand our workforce housing and stabilize our rental market. I am working to find renewable energy sources and continue to advocate for our small businesses that are the beating heart of downtown Carpinteria.

Believing that the city’s residents are best served by a cohesive, engaged council, I am committed to being prepared, open-minded and fair. The interests of our community for the short and long term are always my priority. I have proven myself to be a consensus-builder and leader, helping to move forward the important business of the City.

I pledge to continue to be accessible and responsive to your ideas. Together we can maintain our unique beach town.

flower crops, hydroponic produce and avocados with a focus on sustainability and a passion for our people and the resources of this valley.

I believe in responsible and sustainable water use by the Carpinteria Valley Water District’s residents, growers and commercial enterprises. I have decades of experience as an agricultural business owner, and have served on the board of directors and special committees for Farm Credit West. In recent years I have pursued on-going training in leadership through national organizations such as the NACD. I bring a well-rounded and qualified perspective on water usage and serving through leadership.

I would be honored to fairly represent the needs of the Carpinteria Valley Water District’s residents, agriculture and commercial water users for both our present and future generations.

Thank you for your support.

Carpinteria Unified School District

Decisions that affect kids provoke high passion and strong opinions. As a result, school board members can be lauded as champions or criticized as villains. This year’s three candidates for school board are fresh faces to the challenges now facing the little district.

Incumbents Terry Hickey Banks, a boardmember since 1995, and Alicia Jacobsen, who was appointed to replace Boardmember Alison Livett last September, are not seeking reelection. Voters will decide among Gary Blair, Maureen Foley Claffey and Rogelio Delgado to represent them on the board.

This week’s Coastal View News launches Ask the Candidates with an introduction each candidate has written.

Stay tuned over the next three weeks for a series of questions designed to help voters to choose which two Carpinterians should have a voice in the future of local kids.

Next week’s question:

Carpinteria Unified School District has seen significant turmoil in recent months, but the most publically controversial incident was the release of the superintendent just one year into a three-year contract and just one day before the start of classes. The next superintendent likely will be hired when the new board is seated. What qualities will you seek in a new leader given the challenges facing the district now?

Polly Holcombe

I am running for a second term as director on the CVWD board. In my first term, I accomplished the majority of goals shared with the community. Moreover, I have made a demonstrable and positive impact within the organization. My government and business background prepared me for just about every complex situation.

On the Rate and Budget Committee, I cut costs, including $80,000 a year for director medical coverage. I conducted

Gary Blair

The Carpinteria Unified School District has been a daily part of my life for many years as my twin daughters have attended our local schools. My family has resided in our district for over 30 years.

My wife, Ana Colunga Blair, and I have been married for 31 years. I am an Honors graduate of UCSB. For 34 years, I served as the Santa Barbara County Superior Court Executive Officer responsible for managing multimillion dollar budgets, hundreds of employees and implementation of large construction projects, among many other responsibilities. I was formerly the founding Director of the District Attorney’s Victim-Witness Assistance program for three years helping victims of crimes.

Presently, I am an active member of our Carpinteria High School Measure U Advisory Committee.

As an engaged and committed parent, taxpayer and community member, I will objectively and conscientiously evaluate each of our school district’s issues. This includes compliance with Title IX mandates, which require comparable athletic facilities and equipment for girls’ sports.

I look forward to utilizing my extensive experience to ensure that our diverse Carpinteria School District provides a quality education for all of our students.

My priorities include: • Create a new bridge to improve relations between the School Board and teachers and improve labor relations on an on-going basis; • Assure Title IX implementation for equitable access to athletic facilities and equipment for girls; • Advocate budget and ballot propositions to maximize funding for our school district.

Quality education equals future success for our children!

rate reviews and brought rates into compliance with actual water use.

On the Outreach Committee, I assisted in writing and editing many of the CVWD articles in Coastal View News and was instrumental conveying the message that our groundwater is a finite resource with limited supply.

As a board member of the Association of California Water Agencies (ACWA) Region 5 board, I coordinated one of the largest regional water conferences in Santa Barbara County focused on Lake Cachuma.

As director on the Cachuma board I am heavily involved in most key issues and have fostered working relationships with neighboring districts, the county and Bureau of Reclamation.

Over the years, I have become a deeply engaged and proactive leader on a local and regional level. On each issue, I have supported the interests of all rate payers, demonstrating independent analysis and calling each issue as I see it. My aim in continuing as director is to further address complex water challenges with the same diligence and diplomacy.

Maureen Foley Claffey

Growing up, my mom, Mary Foley, worked as a public school teacher in Carpinteria schools and my dad, Paul Foley, served on the school board. I’d hear them discuss teacher pay, student discipline and curriculum issues, and together we’d brainstorm ideas for cool field trips around the dinner table. I never realized that I was actually learning about complicated educational issues until last spring, when I began to delve into the world of educational policy in Carpinteria, myself.

But this time, I approached the issue as an art teacher, Red Hen Cannery business owner and English instructor, married to a public school English teacher, James Claffey, and with two children of my own. The CUSD Board’s decisions began to have a real impact on our family’s life after the expanded Transitional Kindergarten program was shut down and I started researching California state educational code on my free time, writing letters and garnering community support. By August, the board voted to bring the program back, and I realized my passion for improving our local schools.

In August, my daughter began Transitional Kindergarten at Aliso School, and my interest in all things school-related now has a laser focus. She makes me believe that Carpinteria kids matter and that all children need equal access to high-quality academic programs. As a school board member, I will make policy decisions that affect all of Carpinteria’s students, families, teachers and school employees with my daughter as my guiding light. Visit maureenclaffey.weebly. com for more.

Rogelio Delgado

My parents provided me with the fundamentals of education, which have remained within our family. They are the reason why I am a proud School Board candidate. My high school diploma led to a UCLA Master’s Degree in Spanish, a Real Estate Broker’s License and currently considering law school.

My wife Monica and I have raised a family. My daughter Andrea is a top National Scholar and a senior at Harvard University. Ana, a senior at CHS, is a GATE student and has received national, state and local awards. Monica is attending CMS, where she is a straight A student with the potential to be a National Scholar. I would like to implement my education values to every student of the CUSD. My reasons for running are to represent the entire community and achieve quality education involving parents, educators, the School Board and the District. We should be one group in order to succeed. I see the need to retain quality teachers to pursue academic excellence and educators should be properly compensated. As a parent, my concern is class size increase. It should be reduced for a better learning environment. Our children from kindergarten to high school should be guided with a proper school curriculum in order to graduate and earn a university degree. I intend to be a liaison between the community and decisions made by the School Board in order to achieve quality education.

My college education, teaching, bilingual interaction and my experience as a parent are absolute values that can be applied to the CUSD.

Election Day is Tuesday, November 8

Steve Bunting

Water is the most precious resource that is publicly managed. Do we have a plan to be 100 percent self-sufficient?

Water prices are too high. I am opposed to large concrete structures that wind from Northern California to Carpinteria.

The district has to sell water from time to time, just as we have to buy water, but I am opposed to selling water to local water districts to allow new water me-

ters in those near districts. The process of providing a generous, high quality supply of water at a reasonable price to Carpinterians should be the primary mission of the district.

Every industry has a set of “best practices” and because of its location; the Carpinteria Valley Water District should aspire to be a model and leader for its customers. I will do my best to help us to continue to be a place where we can take pride in how we manage this precious resource.

I am a retired Independent Financial Advisor with a degree in History from UCSB. I retired as a Major in the U.S. Army, and I flew combat missions in Viet Nam. I was president of the Morning Rotary Club the year we opened Tomol Interpretive Play Area. We have lived in Carpinteria since 1986. Carpinteria Beautiful designated our “water wise” front yard as most beautiful one year.

Conservation does not have to be ugly, or hard; it needs to be smart.

It was an overwhelmingly awesome day for me to see the support of family, friends and community, words cannot express the gratitude my whole family has for you all. Sorry to those who I wasn’t able to talk to, I tried to see all, but again there was such a big turn out.

A great big thank you to the Palms for having us there and a special thank you to all the Carpinteria businesses that donated goods and services that were raffled off. Again thank you all.

From the Cordero family

We love you!

Viewpoint Friends of the Library sees glass half full

By GaBy Edwards, FOL PrEsidEnt

Barbara, our library’s after-school homework-help director, Suzanne Requejo, has developed a popular monthly Family Arts weekend workshop–attended by dozens of families. The big Dia de los Muertos event on Nov. 5 at Seaside Park should be spectacular, with food, art activities, dance performances, and the drawing for the grocery raffle.

Though FOL membership declined in recent years, our numbers are climbing back. Local filmmaker Larry Nimmer has made a pilot short video called Library Stories, a series of interviews of Carpinterians young and old talking about why they love our library. We intend to use it to raise awareness of the many uses of the library.

I want to highlight our special good fortune in the support we receive from the City Council. We were thrilled this past spring when the council voted to extend our contract for the lease of the Seaside

building (home of our bookstore) for the next five years. What a vote of confidence.

Additionally, in the years since the recession, the council has gradually increased its support of the library from $8,000 in 2007 to $35,500 last year. Slated to give the same amount this year, the council voted in their June budget meeting to try to find $10,000 in the next six months to supplement that amount when they heard that the library budget was going to be $30,000 over what we had anticipated. And then the frosting on the cake was the council’s choice of FOL as the city’s Summer 2016 Outstanding Community Partner.

If you feel blessed to be living in Carpinteria (and who doesn’t?), you can feel twice blessed that we have an excellent small-town library and a phalanx of committed volunteers and community leaders working to keep its doors open and its programs thriving.

taste of the town Pacific Village

The financial forecast for Carpinteria Library has been doom and gloom for quite some time, with the gap between funding and need widening every year.

Nonetheless, the hard working board and volunteers at Friends of the Library recognize there is much to be excited about, and as we approach our 50th anniversary in 2017, we want to shout our good news to the additions community.foR noodle loVeRs neW Since the recession, lots of our public ChiCken udon noodle souP institutions to be realistic about singaPoRehave RiCehad noodles & koRean dwindling changsPiCy revenues seafood(gloom!) noodleand souP ing societal needs (doom!).

Our used-book store business is booming, in spite of warnings that sales would drop with each passing year. And library patrons are clamoring for new books on the shelves. The library

is anything but moribund, and we at FOL are galvanized by the challenge of helping our library staff keep abreast of changing community needs.

Our energetic Event and Fund Development committees are hard at work.

This year we won $14,000 in grants and hope to double that achievement next year. We intend to roll out a new business campaign this fall, asking local businesses to partner with us in providing much needed upgrades in the library.

On Nov. 5, we are holding a big grocery raffle (winners get a $500 gift card to either Albertsons or Trader Joe’s), with the proceeds designated to buy desperately needed computers. Tickets are being Casitas Pass Rd sold at our booth at the Avofest, at the farmer’s market, at our used-book store, and at other venues starting this week.

Passion for volunteering becomes a personal journey CVn

mission possible barbara dunlap Mary Crowley began volunteering in Carpinteria while her children were very young, and she’s continued for decades. When her husband nominated her for Carpinterian of the Year in 2015, he compiled a list of more than a dozen local organizations she has served over the years. The Chamber of Commerce honored her dedication by selecting her for that prestigious award.

The groups Crowley has volunteered with include Carpinteria Beautiful, Girls Inc., Carpinteria Education Foundation, Carpinteria Valley Historical Society, Rotary Club and Carpinteria Woman’s Club—and that’s just a sampling. Recently, she’s had to limit her activities due to health reasons, but she remains passionate about volunteering—especially with Relay for Life, a cause dear to her heart.

Q: Why do you feel it’s important to volunteer?

A: I choose to volunteer because our community is so special. Yes, it’s beautiful, but the people here are even more beautiful. Community is the soul of Carpinteria.

I started when my children were in preschool, and I guess I became addicted, as I’ve never stopped volunteering. I helped in classrooms, with fundraisers and with after-school sports and activities.

Q: How does volunteering enrich your life?

A: It has introduced me to new people, points of view, ideas and energy. I’ve learned a lot and had a lot of fun, too. Volunteering also has shown me the warmth, kindness and generosity of others. I’ve been the recipient of so much encouragement and support from our wonderful community.

It’s a Gift That Gives Both Ways Consider a Gift Annuity

Q: You volunteer for a wide variety of causes. Why is Relay for Life particularly important to you—and what roles have you played in it?

A. For the past eight years I was a team member at Relay for Life, and my main duty was to fundraise and raise people’s awareness of the cancer crisis in our lives.

I don’t know anyone who hasn’t been touched or affected in some way, either personally or with a family member or friend. I have been a speaker at some of the relay events and shared my story and motivation. This year, I became a team co-captain, and my duties mostly are to recruit team members and assist them in reaching their personal fundraising goals.

Q: Why did you start to volunteer with this program?

A: I began as a team member in the first Relay because I’d had a horrible year in which I lost at least four friends and acquaintances to cancer. It was so frustrating that there wasn’t anything I could do to help them. I’d lost both of my grandmoth-

ers and my grandfather to cancer and had an aunt and a nephew who had it too, so fundraising with Relay was my way to help fight back against all types of cancer.

After my second year of participation, my daughter got a rare ovarian cancer (she is fine now), and I got an even rarer ocular melanoma. After my initial treatment, my cancer metastasized and now I am undergoing immunotherapy. I feel incredibly lucky as these new immunotherapy treatments have only come about in the last couple of years—due to research and funding supported by efforts like Relay, the American Cancer Society and other cancer-funding organizations. Needless to say, I continue to volunteer because it has become a very personal cause.

Help Wanted

Relay for Life of Carpinteria raises money and awareness to help save lives from cancer. To learn more or to volunteer with Relay, visit cancer.org or call Eric Knight at (310) 498-4096.

Carpinteria to throw rockin’ festival

By Mark Brickley

This weekend the California Avocado Festival will celebrate its 30th anniversary. Entertainment and Operations Director Mike Lazaro remembers the Avofest’s early days. “For the first two years I cooked taquitos for the VFW booth. In my third year, I was asked to plug in extension cords and I‘ve been connecting those cords ever since,” he mused. This year, between Friday, Oct. 7 and Sunday, Oct. 9, over 75 musical acts will perform on Linden Avenue’s four stages. The music begins on Friday afternoon and continues until Sunday evening. “The stars of this year’s festival will be the area’s local musicians. We’re going back to the festival’s beginnings when most of our performing artists had hometown roots. We have more than 30 acts from Carpinteria,” Lazaro said.

Music preview

Last year’s festival celebrated the city’s Golden Jubilee. Surf-rock band The Rincons played Billboard’s top hits from 1965, the year Carpinteria was incorporated. Their good vibrations will return to the Seal Stage this Saturday night at 9 p.m. Rincons’ bassist Roger Gilbert, rhythm guitarist Curtis Lopez and their bandmates also perform as the Dusty Jugs. Country music fans will hear their line-dance favorites on Friday night at 9 p.m. on the Grotto Stage.

Sgt. Pepper and friends outside The Palms. The band plays the Seal Stage on Sunday at 5 p.m.

Another country-flavored act playing the fest is Nate Latta’s Band. Latta describes his original music as “early country with heart,” and his songs have rockabilly sheen. Locals will remember Latta as a former Carpinteria elementary school teacher. His polished tunes will jump off Seal Stage on Sunday at 6 p.m.

I ran into musician Chris Riley at this year’s Carpinteria Triathlon. He plays bass guitar in two local bands. Chris has lived in Carpinteria for 13 years and is a busy guy. He’s a middle school teacher at Howard School, a city lifeguard and pulls beer at Island Brewing Company, in addition to his musical gigs. Chris won’t be playing at Avofest this year because he’s getting hitched. He said his band Soltree will have a great fill-in bassist. “They’re really a fun group and the musicianship is high all around. They have a reggae/ jazz vibe that meets the islands’ groove.

The band’s original music is composed by vocalist Anne Hall, and they throw in some classic reggae covers,” Riley said.

Soltree plays the Seal Stage on Friday at 6:15 p.m.

The Traveling Hurtados will entertain at the President’s Reception on Friday evening.

The Traveling Hurtados are musicians Bobby Montanes, Hector Hurtado and Steve Puailoa. The band is pictured on the current cover of Carpinteria Magazine. The three accomplished guitarists trade leads

and harmony on songs from Tom Petty, George Michael and Elton John. They will entertain at the Festival’s President’s Party on Friday night. Hector also doubles as the bassist for band Superstoked.

His gritty rock act plays the Seal Stage on Saturday at 8 p.m. Bobby and Steve’s classic rock group, Out of the Blue, plays Sunday at 3:30 p.m. on the Main Stage.

Local rock guitarist Connor Daniel Weinstein’s band, Next Door to the Moon, hits the Main Stage on Friday at 3 p.m. In 2014 Connor released his debut album “Invincible.” He played every instrument on the recording including electric and acoustic guitars, bass, drums and keyboard.

It’s impossible to sit still at an Upbeat show. Microphone in hand, Mike “Oreo” Organista prowls the stage in a porkpie hat, as the Upbeat charges through their high energy ska set. The band was formed in Carpinteria in the mid-80s. Vocalist Organista says their Jamaican infused music has evolved over the years. “We started with that 2-Tone sound and were the only band around playing English ska/punk. Reggae is our undercurrent but now most of our music is original,” he explained. Come early–the Upbeat always draws the festival’s biggest crowd.

They play the Main Stage on Saturday at 5:30 p.m. You’ll be bouncing on the soles of your feet.

Dylan Schmidt and the rhythm Souls perform on the Guac & Grotto Stage on Saturday at 6 p.m..

Carpinteria City Manager Dave Durflinger plays bass in two Avofest bands. Hear his act South On Linden, featuring lead vocalist Trish “The Dish” Remley on Seal Stage on Friday at 8 p.m.

The Youngsters play on Saturday at 7 p.m. At Santa Barbara’s 2016 Fiesta celebration, I heard band Redfish perform for the first time. I was knocked out by their musicianship. Redfish will storm the Main Stage at 9 p.m. on Friday. Don’t miss Santa Barbara British Invasion sensations, the Tearaways. I hope they play “Jessica Something,” one of the best original tunes ever recorded locally. The song builds, burns and explodes.

Lazaro says the McDonough Band is flying in from Boston to perform. “They come to town every couple of years. Our festival is the band’s favorite event. They

Backstage with Rick Reeves, Mike Lazaro and Spencer the Gardener Barnitz.

Electric guitarist Rick Reeves embodies the blues. Over the years, his band has opened for some of rock’s biggest acts. Reeves bends notes like B.B. King and plays Jimi Hendrix classics like “The Wind Cries Mary” note-for-note. You also know him as the Main Stage’s long serving Master of Ceremonies. Reeve’s blues trio follows the Upbeat at 7 p.m. on Saturday.

Soulful singer Dylan Schmidt’s reggae vibe is accented by his high step dancing.

Outside of Michael Jackson tribute artists, classic Doo-Wop/Soul groups and Mark Miller of country band Sawyer Brown, Schmidt is one of few lead vocalists who have incorporated dancing into their stage act. Catch Dylan and the Rhythm Souls on Saturday at 6 p.m. on the Grotto Stage.

Sgt. Pepper is the tri-counties’ top Beatles tribute band. Local fans recently packed the Plaza Playhouse Theater as Sgt. Pepper recreated the Beatles last 1966 concert, held at San Francisco’s Candlestick Park. In addition to three great

guitarists, the band has a drummer with real singing chops. Hear their harmonies on the Seal Stage this Sunday at 5 p.m.

Songwriters and acoustic acts will also be well represented at this year’s festival.

Guitarist Bruce Goldish was “discovered” playing in Santa Barbara’s downtown parking garages. He liked the way his chords echoed off the cement walls.

Goldish creates a cathedral of sound with his open-tuned finger picking, and will play the Seal Stage on Sunday at 11 a.m.

Local songwriters Jamey Geston and Xenia Flores with Jonathan will play separate sets on Saturday afternoon at the Seal Stage. Both singers have become skilled guitarists.

Jonathan McEuen (JMAC) is a multifaceted singer-songwriter who can play flat-picked Americana, scorching electric rock riffs and ballads including his noted recording “Ocean.” McEuen’s ferocious falsetto shreds Prince’s R&B classic “Kiss.” His dad is John McEuen, famed banjo player for the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. JMAC will perform at the Grotto Stage on Saturday at 1 p.m.

save their money to rent a house nearby and play all original music.” They’re on the Seal Stage this Saturday at 2:45 p.m.

Lazaro continued, “The Brian Titus Band is also terrific. Watch these guys, you’ll love ‘em. Zac Dorian is from Carp. It’s a whole new project from Zac. It will be a surprise. Get ready. The band Pleasure is also great. They really impressed me.

They rock and jam with a Zappa feel and have great drumming.”

Thanks go out to this year’s Avocado Festival President, Gary Dobbins. Lazaro reminds everyone to carpool, park at Carpinteria High School and take the shuttle to the festival. If you bring your dog be sure drop him/her off at Doggie Daycare, located next to the Lucky Lama Coffeehouse on Carpinteria Avenue. It’s free, like all the festival’s music.

Message from the General Manager Hello Carpinterians, The District is turning 75 this year and we want to celebrate with all of our customers. We will be at the Avocado Festival on Friday October 7th giving out free water bottles, shower buckets and other water conservation items. Also, as a way of saying thanks to our customers we are giving away spray nozzles and conservation shower buckets (while supplies last) for the month of November if you come to the District offices!

Even though I’ve been working for the District for 16 years that’s only a fraction of the 75 years that the Water District has been working for its customers. Year after year the Water District has worked to carry out its mission to serve its customers safe and reliable water. Over the years many challenges have been overcome through diligence and perseverance. As you may be aware one of the biggest challenges we have faced in our history as a water district is upon us now. The record drought in Santa Barbara County that has broken all of the records is putting strain on water supplies. While El Nino pulled some of California out of the drought, Central and Southern California still remain in a deep drought. The outlook for the coming winter is not great. Of course, any rain will help but it will take several years of heavy rain to recover the water supplies. Lake Cachuma, one of our main water supplies, is just about depleted with only 8% of its total volume remaining. With this in mind we continue to look towards conservation to help us stretch remaining water supplies as long as we can. The customers of Carpinteria Valley Water District are the greatest because we asked in 2015 that certain water using activities be limited or completely eliminated and you responded! For that, I am very thankful. Since we declared a drought emergency, customers have cut back on their use by more than 20% which has been critical to preserving the water supply. If this drought continues through another winter, we may come back to you and ask for additional restrictions and we know that we can count on you to do your part.

Just as you have been doing your part, the Water District is diligently working on its part. From improving the reliability of the local groundwater wells to purchasing dry year supplemental water from other State Water contractors around the State, we are doing everything we can to shore up water supplies. A recent deal to purchase 1,000 acre feet of excess State Water from Antelope Valley will replace depleted Lake Cachuma supplies for 2017. Rehabilitation of three District wells is part of improving local groundwater supply reliability.

The District also is doing long-term water supply planning in the shadow of this drought by investigating the possibility of using 1,000 acre feet per year of wastewater that currently flows into the ocean from the Carpinteria Sanitary District Wastewater Treatment Plant. By cleaning this water to a nearly pure level with reverse osmosis and advanced oxidation and then replenishing the groundwater basin with the clean water we can create a new sustainable drought proof water supply in Carpinteria. We believe this would be a very reliable water supply that could help us during future droughts.

I appreciate everyone that has helped make this 75-year-old Water District the great organization that it is. Please stop by at the Water District booth at the Avocado Festival on Friday and say hello.

Regards, Bob McDonald, General Manager Carpinteria Valley Water District

75 Year History

Bradbury Dam

Gobernador Reservoir

South Coast Conduit

Carpinteria Reservoir

Construction of Foothill Reservoir

The formation of the Carpinteria County Water District on February 13, 1941 was a direct response to a concern about groundwater levels in the Valley, and the need to replenish and monitor this precious resource. The initial focus of the District was the development of recharge wells, and, despite the nation’s entry into the Second World War, the District managed to develop three such wells using water from Carpinteria and Santa Monic creeks.

Almost immediately following incorporation, communities throughout Santa Barbara County began discussing the possibility of a stable, regional water source from the Santa Ynez River.

The Cachuma project, as it was later called, was agreed-upon by local water agencies, the County of Santa Barbara and the United States Bureau of Reclamation in January 1947. Carpinteria formally signed an agreement with the County and Bureau in December 1949. Water deliveries from the Tecolote Tunnel began in 1953.

Throughout the late 1940s, 1950s and early 1960s, many of the smaller private water companies in the Valley were incorporated into the District’s service area – including the Shepard Mesa Water Company, the Ocean Oaks Water Company and the Carpinteria Water Company – which served the downtown portion of town. The District continued to contract with other smaller water companies for water delivery.

With the completion of the Cachuma project in 1953, and the filling (and spilling) or the reservoir in April 1958, Carpinteria was poised to have sufficient water to meet growing demands. The 1960s and 1970s saw extensive land development in the Valley, and water demand was projected to reach 6,000 acre-feet annually by 1980. New water distribution pipelines were installed to meet new demands north of the freeway, while many older water lines were replaced in the downtown area, once served by the Carpinteria Water Company.

In May of 1982, water treated at Santa Barbara’s William B. Cater treatment plant began arriving in the Valley. Prior to this, water coming from the Cachuma project was filtered and chlorinated.

This change was a direct result of federal and state water quality requirements, a reality that would resurface in the late 1990s and early 2000s, resulting in additional improvements to District infrastructure during the Capital Improvement Program phase.

The severe drought of the late 1980s and early 1990s lead the District to again search for stable sources of supply. The community-wide vote in June 1991 to participate in the California State Water Project further widened the area from which water was obtained. While seemingly expensive, the District has now become reliant on State Water and the water delivery infrastructure of the State to help meet water demand during the present, record drought period.

Throughout its history, the District – your District – has responded to local water needs with a commitment to maintain essential local water supplies and the willingness to seek water further afield. Changes in the coming years may include reclaimed water and a return to the District’s groundwater recharge roots. Whatever the future holds, the District remains committed to the Carpinteria Community.

Water conservation: Every drop counts As Carpinteria Valley Water District celebrates 75 years, we find ourselves in a fifth year of drought. In normal years, the District relies on three sources of supply – Lake Cachuma, State Water and groundwater. During dry periods and drought, a source of supply that the District comes to depend on is water saved through water conservation efforts. Since the current drought emergency was declared, Carpinteria’s overall annual average water demand of approximately 4,300 acre feet per year has dropped to approximately 3,700 acre feet.

How has this overall demand reduction been achieved? It has been attained through the conscious effort by those that live, work and visit Carpinteria to use water as efficiently and effectively as possible; making conservation a way of life. People in the Valley are taking shorter showers, capturing pre-shower water to water plants, reducing landscape irrigation, installing laundry to landscape gray water irrigation systems or rain water harvesting gardens or collection systems, repairing leaks as soon as possible, and by not serving water at restaurants or washing towels or linens at lodging establishments unless requested. Community members have participated in the District’s rebate programs and replaced old, inefficient high water use toilets and clothes washers with high efficiency low water use models, reduced or removed high water demanding lawns for gardens with plants that require very little water, yet provide visual interest through color, texture and wildlife fluttering about.

Thank you Carpinteria for being water wise and making sure every drop counts.

Let’s continue together to make our water supplies sustainable!

Coastal View News • Carpinteria, California

Can she get help?

A local woman, 52 years old, has been arrested four times in recent weeks on drunk in public charges. The woman is a transient, a deputy’s report states, and “a chronic abuser of alcohol and law enforcement receives numerous calls on a weekly basis regarding (name withheld) defecating, urinating and causing disturbances at various local business.

Usually, upon contact with law enforcement (name withheld) feigns needing medical assistance to avoid being arrested for public intoxication. Over the past month (she) has become increasingly more violent and belligerent towards law enforcement.”

On Sept. 22, a deputy was dispatched to a restaurant on Linden Avenue on a report of an intoxicated female causing a disturbance. When the deputy arrived, he saw the woman drinking a half-emptied 40-ounce bottle of malt liquor. The woman smelled strongly of alcohol and could not stand on her own or care for herself, so the deputy placed her under arrest.

When the deputy arrived at Santa Barbara County Jail the woman refused to get out of the patrol car, but was then “escorted out of the vehicle with the assistance of several custody deputies.”

The woman began swearing and threated to kill all the deputies in the sally port. “Based on my own and fellow deputies’ numerous contacts with (the woman),” the deputy concluded, “it is apparent that her alcoholism has caused an increased strain on law enforcement, fire and EMT personnel who have repeatedly responded to calls for service regarding (the woman).”

“I knew from a recent arrest…”

Not yours

On Sept. 22 at approximately 10 a.m., a man had his car washed on Carpinteria Avenue, and later realized that he’d left his wallet on the roof of his vehicle as he drove away. When the man checked his bank statements online a few hours later, he discovered that someone had used his card at three different businesses in Carpinteria. The person who used the man’s card purchased $17.32 worth of goods at a market, $58.80 at a hardware store and $50 at a discount store.

The man then drove to the market to see if the clerk had any surveillance footage of the illegal transaction. Around the time that bank statements indicated purchases were made, the video surveillance revealed a man, approximately 35 years old, wearing a San Diego Chargers #21 jersey, and a white hat with a mustache and goatee. With him was a woman with a pink shirt and bleach blonde hair.

Later, the man told deputies that he’d seen the male suspect with another male when the man was washing his car, and that he remembered the man because he couldn’t believe “they were doing blow (Cocaine) on the tables outside ...”

The man then saw the woman from the surveillance video riding her bike near Carpinteria and Palm avenues with a

bag on her handlebars from the discount store where his card had been used. The man honked his horn and motioned for the woman to stop and talk with him.

When he asked who the man was that had used his card and where he was, the woman responded that she only knew him as “Donut Man,” and that he lived in the Concha Loma area.

The man drove towards Concha Loma looking for the man he’d seen at the carwash and on the video footage but did not find him, so the man went to his bank to cancel his card and then contacted Sheriff’s deputies. When he spoke with deputies the man said he’d last seen the woman riding her bike south on Palm Avenue. Based on the man’s description of the woman and the direction she was riding on Palm Avenue, the deputy felt he knew the woman based on his numerous previous contacts with her. At approximately 2:50 p.m., the deputy was dispatched to 840 Maple Ave., where the man whose card had been used illegally had detained the woman. As the deputy approached, the man stated that the woman had admitted using the debit card knowing it was stolen, and that the man had made a recording of the woman’s confession on his phone. “I didn’t know it was stolen when I used it,” the deputy reported that the woman told him. He then arrested her.

Recognizing a nearby cart as belonging to the woman, the deputy looked inside and found a bottle of 32-ounce Pacifico beer and a pack of Nerds candy. “It shall be noted,” the deputy wrote, “these are two of the items seen purchased on the security camera by the two suspects.” A man approached who is a friend of the woman, and stated that she keeps her things behind a neighboring residence.

Deputies then found bags from the discount store and the hardware store with receipts inside that match the name of the man whose debit card was illegally used.

The deputy did not find the male suspect, but once the woman mentioned that he worked at a restaurant in town the deputy realized that he knew the suspect from “several recent arrests on him from my Carpinteria deputies.” The man signed a citizen’s arrest form for detaining the woman, and the deputy requested that the DA charge the man seen in the security video for the illegal use of the other man’s debit card.

On Sept. 22 at approximately 8:51 p.m., a deputy driving a marked patrol car north on Palmetto Way observed a male subject sitting in the passenger seat of a parked van. “I knew from a recent arrest that (the man) was still on Santa Barbara County Probation,” the deputy noted. A search of the man and his vehicle revealed an apple that had been used to smoke marijuana, and less than an ounce of marijuana in a cigarette paper. The man did not have a medical marijuana recommendation and was cited for possession of less than one ounce of marijuana in a vehicle.

Three men, three pipes

On Sept. 23 at approximately 10 a.m., a uniformed Sheriff’s deputy was on foot patrol with a Code Enforcement Officer from the City of Carpinteria in the 5400 block of Carpinteria Avenue. The deputy noticed an inhabited encampment on the creek bed. Three males were living in the camp, one of them working on a bicycle and the other two “in and around a tent that was set up.” The deputy noted that he was familiar with all three subjects from having had contacts with them on previous incidents. He also noticed a “green meth pipe,” then learned from a records check that one of the men was on probation with unrestricted search terms.

One of the other men stated that a backpack that the deputies had searched and found an additional meth pipe in, was his. The third man, the deputy noted, “makes his meth pipes from light bulbs and other glass items.” The man then admitted that the light bulb meth pipe the deputy found on the ground, was his. “(Name withheld) asked for a break as he was doing good,” the reporting deputy noted. “He was homeless but trying to get a job. I told him that since he’d claimed the meth pipe was his own, he would get a citation and not be arrested. He thanked me and told me he would contact his his probation officer when one was assigned to him.”

League contests heat up for Rams and Warriors

Cardinals wallop Warriors

The Warriors suffered a head-hanging 55-0 loss to the Cardinals last weekend, adding to a long streak of wins in the Bishop column of the historic rivalry. Coach Van Latham commented, “We were disappointed in how we played, but Bishop Diego is a very talented football team. They were a big factor in how we played. That being said, we are looking forward to the rest of our season. With continued improvement, we feel we will be competitive in the rest of the games on our schedule.

We still have two games to improve before the start of league play.”

The Warriors head out on the road to play Santa Paula this Friday, Oct. 7. Kickoff is at 7 p.m.

CHS seniors Alex Martinez, number eight, and Eduardo Lozano take down Bishop running back John Harris.

Senior quarterback Mikey Garibay finished the game with 27 passing yards.

CHS sophomore Isaac De Alba sprints past a defender.

Wildcats claw Rams

Senior Eduardo Lozano punts the ball in the lopsided loss to Bishop.

The Cate School football team lost its Condor League opener on the road at Villanova 36-32 on Sept. 30. The Rams are now 1-3 overall and 0-1 in league play. The Wildcats remain undefeated at 5-0 and 1-0 in league.

Senior Pierce Lundt found the end zone early for Cate, giving the Rams some momentum in the beginning. Villanova’s offense rolled from there, giving the Wildcats the lead at the half. Despite numerous scoring chances, the Rams weren’t able to find the end zone when they needed to score. “While this loss was frustrating, the hope is that we learn from this and continue to improve. There is a lot of football left to play,” reported Assistant Coach Dave Soto.

Cate is back in action on Saturday, Oct. 8 at Flintridge Prep in La Canada. That game will start at 3:30 p.m.

Epic SUP launches

On the first Thursday of each month Coastal View News publishes the Honor Roll to thank readers and advertisers for their generous support. Since 2009, this support has played a critical role in keeping Coastal View News in the stands each week and full of local news that cannot be found in any other news media. The outpouring of support inspired by the Honor Roll has established a deeper connection between the newspaper and its readers. Additionally, the hundreds of names that appear in the Honor Roll have also sent a message to advertisers—Carpinterians are dedicated to their local newspaper.

NOTICE TO pOTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction.

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence,priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO pROpERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call, (800) 758-8052 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site, www. homesearch.com, for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, T.S.# 99480266. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse.

Oct. 15 from 2 to 5 p.m. In 1995 Dawson became intrigued by the old brick walls of lower Manhattan, and has sought out city walls ever since. “Walls are deeply embedded in our psyche (and soma),” the show’s statement reads. “Architecturally, they have their own life and aging cycles, showing in their faces, outlines of their history, and traces of once-adjoining generations of buildings.” Dawson’s gallery is located at 4646 Carpinteria Ave.

Each has been complicit in the deaths of other human beings but either escaped justice or committed an act that was not subject to legal sanction.

Carpinteria Beautiful doesn’t discriminate by age. Siblings Cora, 4, and Benji Griffin, 2, prove one is never too young to be a community helper. the two young Adopt-aSpotters pitch in with mom Lynn, to keep malibu drive clean, green and beautiful.

City Manager Dave Durflinger gave a short status report on the city to Morning Rotary Club of Carpinteria. Carpinteria employs around 90 year-round staff members and several seasonal positions. it is a small organization in a small town and strongly believes in the values of accessibility, transparency, trustworthiness and compassion as duties are performed, Durflinger said. The city’s main funding sources are property tax, sales tax, and hotel occupancy tax. in addition, designated funds and grants are used for special services. Since much of the town was developed between the 1950s and 1970s, a priority focus now is “long-toothed” infrastructure maintenance and improvement as well as best use of available revenues. To find out more about the club, visitors can attend a weekly breakfast meeting, held each Wednesday from 7 to 8 a.m. at the Carpinteria Woman’s Club, 1059 Vallecito Road.

Bie presents on Moving Wall return

peter bie recently stopped by the Carpinteria morning Rotary Club to talk about the moving Wall’s return to Santa barbara from oct. 12 to 17 at Chase palm park. the moving Wall is a half-size replica of the Vietnam Veterans memorial in Washington, d.C., and has been touring the country for more than 20 years. bie noted the unique, moving power of the Wall over those who visit it. though the memorial in Washington was initially disliked by many for its stark appearance, it has become a beloved national treasure to veterans of all of America’s wars. the moving Wall is the brainchild of John devitt, a Vietnam Veteran who attended the 1982 dedication of the Vietnam Veterans memorial in Washington, d.C. and was inspired to share the positive power of the wall with all those who could not make the trip to the nation’s capital. built by devitt and other Vietnam veteran volunteers, the moving Wall is 253 feet in length, composed of 74 separate frames, and containing the names of the 58,267 proud veterans who died serving their country in the Vietnam conflict. this will be the moving Wall’s sixth visit to the Santa barbara area, and all are welcome. A dedication ceremony will be held Saturday, oct. 15 at 11 a.m., and a nondenominational candlelight service will be held on Sunday, oct. 16 at 6:30 p.m. docent volunteers are needed for the event, and anyone interested is encouraged to contact the Vietnam Veterans of America, Chapter 218 at 284-6372 for more information.

Coastal View News • Carpinteria, California wide-eyed. I am born Negro here (Ohio) and Colored there (North Carolina).” This lyrical prose poem tells the stories of the Woodson family, of being black in America and of our cultural history: all seen through the eyes of a charmingly articulate and perceptive child. Seamlessly she weaves in the voices of Langston Hughes, James Baldwin and Sam Cooke. But it is Woodson’s own voice that emerges sure and strong, giving us her memories and understanding of her complex and often chaotic life—so specific to her time and place and yet somehow universal. It is our life too. Woodson reminds us why we read—to learn, to be amused, to be amazed or to simply enjoy a truly fine book. “Brown Girl Dreaming” received the National Book Award, Coretta Scott King Award and is a Newbery Honor Book.

“Fine, Fine, Fine, Fine, Fine”

by Diane Williams

Surprising, funny and evocative, these super-short stories need to be read more than once to discover the larger meanings. They explore loneliness, passion and the “mysteries of daily life.” In “Cinch,” a homeowner attempts to rid the yard of a gopher. In “Gulls,” a woman watches two birds collide in flight. “The Poet” depicts a woman trying to slice bread to feed hungry house pets. The details captured warp the everyday into touching and haunting situations. Each story is little more than a snapshot that encourages repeated readings revealing new interpretations. The collection draws its title from “A Little Bottle of Tears,” about a married man reflecting on the trials of wedlock. He asks himself if vows can withstand infidelity and suppressed resentments. He answers his own question by repeating the word fine five times, five potentially different meanings—much as the moments described in this collection provide different insights when carefully reexamined.

Book deadline challenge: Final update cVn

the write practice joe bunting A few months ago, I accepted a challenge to finish my book by September 2. The challenge came with stakes. If I missed my deadline, I had to give $1,000 to the presidential candidate I despise the most.

So here’s the news: I finished my book!

The manuscript ended up becoming 38 chapters and 79,183 words long, about eight chapters and 14,000 words more than I had planned. In this month’s column, I want to share what I learned in the last few weeks of finishing my book.

1. Consequences create focus

“By its Cover”

by Donna Leon

Italian culture is thrillingly delicious in Donna Leon’s “By its Cover,” a 2014 installment of the internationally bestselling Commissario Guido Brunetti series.

Leon’s books have achieved worldwide popularity for their stunning setting, fascinating characters and fearless exploration of contemporary Italian culture.

“By the Cover” will be discussed by the Carpinteria Library Book Club on Wednesday, Oct. 19 at 7:30 p.m. at the library, 5141 Carpinteria Ave. The story follows the search for a thief who stole a rare book from a prestigious Venetian library—and then escalates into a search for who murdered a seemingly harmless theologian. The book club is open to anyone interested in discussing the novel. To find out more, call Tara at 684-4314.

Friends of the Carpinteria Library Used Bookstore

One of the biggest things I’ve learned is the power of consequences. Setting a consequence, like writing a $1,000 check for an organization you hate, is one of the best ways to destroy procrastination.

I was amazingly focused on my goal throughout the whole challenge.

The last few weeks were especially stressful as I raced to finish my deadline. But it was all worth it when I finished that last chapter.

2. Writing shouldn’t be emotional

Writing is a soul-baring activity, and as such it can feel both amazing and terrifying. You’re sharing feelings, events, thoughts, stories you may not have shared with anyone before.

However, it can also feel completely normal, mundane even. Your writing is just you after all, and you’re pretty used to you.

This balance between vulnerability and the mundane can set you up for a trap, and I’ve found that writing gets much more difficult if one of two things happens: You over-romanticize the writing process and what you’re writing about, or you’re not content with yourself.

The key is to manage your emotions. Don’t let yourself get too high, too caught up in what you’re doing. At the same time, don’t let your self-doubt and insecurity make you question the writing process itself.

Instead, just write. Just do the work.

Show up every day. It’s not glamorous.

It doesn’t feel that creative or artistic. It’s also the only way to finish.

3. Find the right partner

I wrote my first book in 2010, finishing it about two months after I started dating Talia, who would later become my wife. I’m not sure I could have written that first book without her, but I know I couldn’t have written this book without her.

The right partner doesn’t have to be your spouse or significant other. It might be a writing mentor, your best friend or your parents. However, what I’ve found again and again is that the people you surround yourself with are essential to your success or failure.

4. Beware of writing burnout

Four days after finishing my book, a wave of depression hit me. I’ve been writing and working on creative projects for long enough to know exactly what was going on. I had writing burnout.

Burnout, for me, feels a combination of exhaustion, boredom and meaninglessness.

In the past, I’ve made the mistake of dropping everything in the midst of burnout. I’ve even woken up from my depression months later, wondering why I’m so unhappy and so isolated.

This is the exact opposite of what you should do. If you ever find yourself burnt out at the end of a big project, do this instead: Keep moving. Burnout is a reminder that you need more purpose in your life, but if you stop everything you’re doing, you’ll find it’s really hard to rediscover purpose.

Reach out to others. In the stress of a big project, you probably had to say no to some of the people closest to you.

Reconnect with your friends and family, and start to make new relationships that will help you in the next season.

Grieve. The fastest way to get over something is to go through it. Allow yourself to feel your feelings.

5. The real work is just about to begin

I’m not happy with my book. Of course I’m not. Good writing is rewriting. But really, I’ll probably never be happy with it. What I have in my head will always be better than what I can put on the page.

My standards will always be higher than the skill I have to meet them. That’s okay, normal even. I’m content in the midst of the lack of contentment.

ON THE ROAD

A High Sierra roofing job

In early September, Bradley and Emily Miles hosted a group of volunteers in the High Sierra re-roofing the old Trout Meadow Ranger Station for the U.S. Forest Service. At the end of the four-night trip, the group celebrated with a party at the Miles’ Cow Camp cabin. The ranger station holds special meaning for the Mileses—it’s where Emily proposed to Bradley in November of 1971 (according to Bradley).

CVN in the heart of Texas

Carpinteria locals Marco and Monica Sanchez along with Mike and Veronica Desjardins traveled to Dallas, Texas over the Labor Day weekend to watch the USC vs. Alabama college football game at the AT&T Stadium. They could not leave Texas without experiencing World Famous Billy Bob’s at the historic Ft. Worth Stockyards—the only place where you can ride bulls, two-step, drink beer, buy gifts, shoot pool, party hard and hear the top artists in country, blues and rock. The couples owe a special thanks to Coach Steven Murillo for helping to create great memories.
