Skatepark goes into design phase

Carpinteria Skate Foundation boardmember Peter Bonning delivered a $16,000 check to Mayor Fred Shaw at the May 8 Carpinteria City Council meeting to fund the design of a skateboard park on City Hall property. The foundation has agreed to fund all aspects of the creation of the skate park, including step one, having it designed by reputable firm Dreamland Skateparks, LLC. Bonning said contracting with Dreamland will ensure a “world class” park is built in Carpinteria, one that will become a destination for families from afar. The foundation will need to fund raise further to execute the plan once the blue prints are delivered.

Phone scams crop up throughout county

The Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office is warning residents about two phone scams that are being reported throughout the county. In one, the caller claims to have kidnapped a family member or friend of the victim and demands payment for his or her return. While no actual kidnapping has taken place, the callers often use co-conspirators to convince their victims of the ruse. For example, a caller might attempt to convince a victim that his daughter was kidnapped by having a young female scream for help in the background during the call. Anyone who receives such a phone call should hang up the phone, immediately contact family members and notify law enforcement.

In another recently reported phone scam, the caller poses as a Sheriff’s Lieutenant, provides a fake badge number and may even agree to meet the resident in person at a Sheriff’s station and list the address. The caller tells the victim that there is a bench warrant issued for their arrest because they did not show up for jury duty then offers to resolve the warrant if the citizen purchases a $2,000 pre-paid credit card and provide the card number during a subsequent call. The Sheriff’s office does not call residents over the phone to notify them of a warrant or take any payments over the phone. To report phone scams, call the Federal Trade Commission at 1-877-FTC-HELP or visitftc.gov/complaint.

Council to consider parking lot, ad hoc cannabis committee

When the Carpinteria City Council meets on Monday, May 22, it will consider a wide range of items affecting the town and its residents. The continuation of various assessment districts, an update to city parking lot 2 (located on the east side of Linden Avenue’s 900 block), the creation of a City Council Marijuana Ad Hoc Committee and a Labor Relations Ad Hoc Committee, and the hiring of a $665,000 consultant to prepare the City’s General Plan/Local Coastal Land Use Plan Update and Program Environmental Impact Report are all on the night’s agenda. The meeting is scheduled to begin at 5:30 p.m. at City Hall, 5775 Carpinteria Ave. Members of the public can attend the meeting and speak on anything within the council’s purview.

The Carpinteria Club Inducts Mike Dawson as the First Member of Alumni Hall of Fame at their 50th Anniversary Kids Auction this Saturday!

Mike Dawson, local Carpinterian and Lion, was one of the first Club members of the Carpinteria Boys Club in 1967 at Aliso School and will be the first Boys & Girls Club alumni inducted into the Club’s Alumni Hall of Fame at the 50th Anniversary Kids Auction on Saturday, May 20th.

For over 20 years, Mike has generously donated of his time and treasure to the Carpinteria Club and has been a model alumni for current and past generations. Mike shared a memory of when he was featured in the Carpinteria Herald in 1971 as a player on the Second Grade Basketball Team (see bottom right). During an interview, Mike added that he and his friends enjoyed the Club as a home away from home and a place to “keep out of trouble” after school under the guidance of past Club Director Rich Medel. Between intermural football and basketball games, fun days “playing pool, ping pong,” Mike shared valuable memories with friends through the end of high school. He joined the Men’s Basketball League on Tuesday nights after graduation as a way to “keep in touch” and has stayed connected to the Club ever since. Mike has assisted to the betterment of the Boys & Girls Club by donating raffle items to the auction, volunteering, and advocating on behalf of youth in our community. In 2008, Mike joined the Carpinteria Lions and became Club President in 2011. As his presidential project, Dawson swamped by his fans after making a 20ft hook Mike decided to plant trees throughout Mike shot in the last second of the half. Right to left, Dale Reese, Carpinteria Valley and the Boys & Girls Joey Avila, Mike Sanchez, Phillip Jazo, and Jimmy Mendoza.

Club was one of the locations. This past year, Mike was one of the Lions Club chairpersons responsible for the Festival of Trees. Along with Lion Casey Balch, Mike loved working with Club Director Debra Herrick and her team (see left). Together they raised $23,500 in support of the Art Vice President of Operations, Jamie Collins (top Program at the Carpinteria Club. His favorite part was seeing all the left), Club Director, Debra Herrick (top right) and young Club members with bright yellow Boys & Girls Club shirts. “They Club Kids from Carpinteria Club accepting the net proceeds of 2016 Festival of Trees in December. put a smile on everyone’s faces and their excitement was contagious!”

International exchange program seeks local start

BY JAY BUSHEY

AFS, a nonprofit international student exchange organization, hopes to bring students from abroad to Carpinteria High School during the next academic year.

“We’re kind of known as the ‘granddaddy’ of international high school aged foreign exchange organizations,” said Caren Marre, a Team Development Specialist for AFS. Marre’s claim may sound bold, but with over 70 years of exchanging students between more than 40 countries worldwide, AFS undoubtedly has a rich history.

The roots of AFS date back to 1914, shortly after the outbreak of World War I. General A. Piatt Andrew established the American Ambulance Field Service—a volunteer ambulance program to protect and transport American soldiers fighting in France. “The original AFS members were conscientious war objectors,” explained Marre. “They volunteered their time, and sometimes their lives, to drive into the front lines and rescue soldiers.”

Following the war, the AFS Association was established in 1920 to reunite former AFS volunteers and create friendly relationships between American and French students by sending American students to French universities. Over the next 30 years, the AFS Association funded over 200 students in their travels to and from France for advanced graduate study.

Today, AFS focuses on high schoolaged exchange programs. While AFS has grown in size and scope since its inception, its goal remains the same. “We want to build bridges of peace, communication, and understanding,” explained Marre.

Students from diverse cultural, social, economic and religious backgrounds are welcomed into the homes of host families and immersed in new cultures.

Gary Elkins, former vice principal of Carpinteria High School, is leading the initiative to bring international students to Carpinteria. He and his wife, Jayne, have volunteered as liaisons for the past seven years, serving as intermediaries between international students, host families and schools. “The first step is to find interested host families in Carpinteria,” explained Elkins. “We want to create a real exchange between families and students—not just rent out a room.”

Elkins and Marre both report very good experiences with all the exchange students they’ve encountered and helped.

“They’re absolute rock stars!” said Marre with unmistakable enthusiasm. “The students are really great,” Elkins explained.

“There’s a screening process for the students and host families. We try to make sure that the students are a good fit for the host family and community.”

While the exchanges are well facilitated, they can often be shocking and eyeopening for international students. “We had a boy come to Los Angeles who had grown up in a small Moroccan village, where he lived in a hut and slept on a straw mat,” described Marre. “He had to be taught how to get under the covers on a bed, and he was so fascinated by the vacuum cleaner that he would beg his host family to let him clean the floors for them!”

Marre already has a student in mind for Carpinteria: a straight-A student from Portugal who loves science, aviation and surfing. “He seems like a great fit for the community. But of course, he’ll need a family that shares his passion for surfing or is at least willing to support him in that!” said Marre.

“The community always benefits from being open to the rest of the world,” stated Elkins. Marre believes that this is

Aliso teacher defends principal

I was on the interview panel for the Aliso principal last summer. I felt then, and even more so today, that Dr. Fox’s academic credentials and her experience made her an excellent choice for us. Furthermore, she is a warm, straight-talking, enthusiastic person.

Dr. Fox has rebuilt the damaged morale of our staff, and the children have taken to her like chicks coming home.

Behavior has improved overall. Dr. Fox worked with staff to set up a new, graduated discipline policy. The most important goal is to educate children to recognize bullying, realize the damage it causes, and be firm in choosing not to do it.

You can imagine the shock our staff felt to hear that boardmembers Andy and Jaclyn coerced Dr. Fox into a meeting, then forced her to resign. Andy and Jaclyn spoke to Dr. Fox alone, without any other board members present. Boardmember Rogelio Delgado and Jamie Persoon,

Administrator in Charge, both said they knew nothing of the action taken.

How can two board members take such a drastic action alone? I question the legality of such action. Furthermore, if there were problems with the performance of a new principal, isn’t there a process to address them? Dr. Fox has not been evaluated since her tenure began.

CUSD has been in some turmoil for the past year. First, a very popular new superintendent was summarily forced out, at a great cost in both dollars and in morale. Since then there has been a vacuum of leadership. Too few people have been forced to do too much to keep the ship afloat.

This has to stop. For the sake of this district, the incumbents on the board must start listening to all of their constituents, not just a powerful few. There must be more transparency and fairness in the actions of the board. After all, who suffers most when the employees are in distress?

That’s right, our students.

Felicity Moore Aliso School teacher

Burglary wave hits Carpinteria

Over a dozen Carpinteria Valley businesses have been robbed overnight during the last month—a rash of crime that has exasperated law enforcement.

“It’s been frustrating,” said Lieutenant Mike Perkins, chief of police services in Carpinteria. “We’re trying to develop a strategy for how to deal with it.”

Multiple retailers downtown and on Santa Claus Lane were broken into, as well as nurseries and wholesalers on Cravens Lane. At Porch, Salon Mirame and Florabundance, thieves used sharp tools to force entry through a door and take whatever cash they could find. Both Salon Mirame on Linden Avenue and Florabundance on Cravens Lane were targeted twice.

“Somebody has been working our area pretty hard,” reported Perkins. The similarities among many of the break-ins, along with the clustered timing, indicates that the same group may be behind them, but Perkins said that it could be a couple of criminal crews working the area. Santa

Barbara, Montecito and Ventura are also experiencing similar spikes in burglaries.

Mirame owner Angelica Centina said that the salon’s security alarm hadn’t been set the night of the first break-in three weeks ago; thieves took cash from the register, as well as some retail products. The next attempt was early on the morning of May 15, when the same door was pried open. The alarm rang that time, and nothing in the salon was taken.

“Business owners have to be more alert and more careful about what’s in their business,” said Centina, who has owned the salon for 12 years without a single break-in prior to the two this spring.

At Florabundance, the robberies occurred within a week of one another. A door lock was jimmied around 2 a.m. on May 9, and even though the security system was triggered, thieves found the petty cash box, which they left behind empty in the parking lot, after rifling through employee desks for more money.

They overlooked iPads, speakers and other electronics. “They were just looking for cash,” said Facilities Manager Rhonda

Cherie helps launch a battle ship

Gerri French loves Summerland and loves connecting people with healthy, locally grown foods.

Last month Whitney Avenue neighbor and friend Cherie Ignatius traveled to Pascagoula, Miss. to participate in the official launch of a spanking new guided missile destroyer. The new ship was christened the Paul Robert Ignatius, who is Cherie’s brother-in-law.

A remarkable man, Ignatius was a naval officer in World War II, and later served as Under Secretary of the Army, Assistant Secretary of Defense and Secretary of the Navy. Even more remarkable, Ignatius, now in his 90s, was there for the launch.

Cherie joined several other family members for the ceremony, which was attended by 1,000. She reported that her diminutive sister-in-law Nancy Ignatius (named as the “ship’s sponsor”) had to give the keel four whacks before the champagne bottle broke. “I was so impressed and proud of our Navy,” Cherie said of the experience, “that they’re taking the building of these ships as a personal mission to safeguard and protect our country.”

The guided missile destroyer was the 31st built by Ingalls Shipbuilding in Pascagoula. It was armed with standard missiles, Tomahawk missiles, torpedoes, close-in weapon systems and evolved sea sparrow missiles.

so long on a hot day that I couldn’t help being impressed.

Shelly told me she’d recently completed a quilt wall hanging in commemoration of the Unity Shoppe’s 100th anniversary. It was a recreation of Unity’s flag depicting a mother and two children looking up at a star, and it now hangs inside the State Street shop.

The Unity Shoppe serves as a central distribution center for most of the nonprofits in Santa Barbara through offering a “free grocery and clothing store.”

Twenty-two thousand people are referred yearly by 300 nonprofit agencies. They serve children, the elderly, the disabled and low-income families—many of them working families that need a little help to get by. Shelly says Unity Shoppe “helps people get back on their feet with dignity.”

Last year Shelly made a rainbow quilt to help raise money for Unity’s telethon.

“I wanted to contribute beyond giving a bag of rice,” she said, “and quilting is my passion.” She plans to stitch another quilt for Unity’s next telethon in December.

Cakes are Shelly’s other passion, and she makes them to order, along with home-cooked meals, also made to order.

She can be contacted at shelly@atasteofhomesb.com. Her description of how she prepares a carrot cake made my mouth water!

Hathaway.

That same night, Cravens Lane nurseries Westland and Toro Canyon were broken into, but thieves fled with only tools.

Florabundance’s alarm was retriggered again early on May 14, when the cash box was stolen with a couple hundred dollars in it.

None of the businesses burglarized over the last month had more than $1,000 stolen. The thieves apparently get in and out quickly, targeting cash and leaving most other valuables.

Hathaway, a local resident and 15-year employee of Florabundance, said the flower wholesaler has never been robbed before in her tenure. The double robberies

have left her unsettled. “It’s so unlike this little town,” she said.

Canalino School joined the list of victims this week as well. According to Principal Jamie Persoon, cafeteria staff arrived on the morning of May 15 to discover a broken lock on the cabinet that held the food service cash.

Perkins said local businesses should clean out their cash drawers every night and invest in a good alarm system. Video surveillance systems could help law enforcement round up the thieves more effectively. “An arrest will go a long way to curtail the problem,” Perkins concluded.

Participants on her farm tours learn about things like cover crops, beneficial insects and dealing with pests while sampling fruits and veggies grown on the farms they visit. In an effort to expand consumers’ awareness of the food they eat and its sources, she also leads tours of cattle, chicken and hog farms, farmers markets, restaurants, culinary stores and wineries.

“My goal is to get people to eat healthier,” Gerri said, “and by eating local, fresh foods, peoples’ nutrition will get better.”

The tours, she says, help people to be curious and non-judgmental about where food comes from. This includes eating meat. “If animals are raised well, there’s no reason not to eat meat,” she stated.

Promoting good health through education is a natural for Gerri, a registered dietician and diabetes educator at Sansum Clinic. “Fresh food is culinary medicine,” she said, handing over a brochure called “The Love Food Plan” that urges people to “enjoy eating foods that love you back.”

Gerri lectures and teaches a variety of classes on nutrition and food preparation.

Her next one-day cooking class using local foods is June 3 through the Center for Life-Long Learning (formerly Adult Education). Registration is available online.

Sonya beautifies Summerland

You can often spot Sonya Harris digging, weeding, planting or arranging rocks in downtown Summerland’s small green spaces. Sonya collects hardy succulents and agaves and gives them homes in the vest-pocket flowerbeds scattered around town.

Passers-by take these tidily planted corners for granted, not stopping to wonder who did the work and who might maintain it. Recently I asked Sonya why she stepped up to fill this particular void.

“Because I can,” she said, explaining that there are many things she has no control over, but planting, helping to keep the downtown area attractive and inviting, is both satisfying and doable.

One good thing: Summerland’s smart, generous, hard-working, committed women!

Steven Scott Callos 10/20/1964 – 5/06/2017

Steve Callos died peacefully at Cottage Hospital on May 6, 2017. He was 53 years old.

Steve was born in Long Beach, Calif. and spent his early years in Orange, Calif. before moving to Carpinteria in 1977. Steve was a kind, generous, happy and peaceful soul who had a very special way with animals. He was a member of Carpinteria High School’s Cross Country Team and Boy Scout Troop 50; Steve maintained a lifelong love of the outdoors.

Steve loved cycling and was featured in a front-page story in the Carpinteria Herald newspaper about his solo, unsupported bicycle ride across America just days after graduating from Carpinteria High School in 1982.

Steve is survived by his parents, Lynda Callos of Carpinteria and John P. Callos of Seal Beach, as well as his younger sister

Obituaries Jennifer Callos Paxton (Carp High 1985) and his older brother John D. Callos (Carp High 1980).

Steve struggled for over 20 years battling the psychological and physical impacts of schizophrenia. The Callos family members wish to express their sincere gratitude to Santa Barbara Social Services and Cottage Hospital who both provided such caring support for Steve for nearly two decades.

Steve will be put to rest on May 18 alongside his maternal grandparents in the Carpinteria Cemetery.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that remembrances and memorial contributions be made in Steve’s name to Carpinteria Boy Scout Troop 50 or to the Santa Barbara Humane Society.

Claire Thurmond Roberts 1/27/1920 – 3/30/2017

Claire Thurmond Roberts passed away peacefully at Cottage Hospital on March 30, 2017 at the age of 97. Claire was born at Cottage Hospital on Jan. 27, 1920—when it was still a cottage, as she liked to say.

She was the daughter of Frank Thurmond and Alice Sprague Thurmond, both of Carpinteria.

Claire grew up in Carpinteria and graduated from Carpinteria High School.

She received her BA in Art History from Scripps College in Claremont California.

While at Scripps, she met her husband, Glenn Roberts, who was a student at Pomona College. The couple made their home in La Canada, Calif. where they raised four children. In 1953, they built a beach cottage in Carpinteria and vacationed there every year. When Glenn retired, they moved to Carpinteria where they established an avocado ranch on property Claire inherited from her family.

Claire was an active member of many organizations in La Canada and Carpinteria including the Assistance League, Hospital Guild, the Carpinteria Historical Society, PEO and the Santa Barbara Little Town Club. She enjoyed golf, tennis, painting, quilting, reading and gardening, and she and Glenn enjoyed cruising to destinations all over the world. She loved spending time with friends and family and playing bridge, which she continued to do until the day before she left us.

She is survived by her daughters Glynn Birdwell and her husband Charlie of Encinitas, Calif. and Mary Monroe and her husband Mike, of Edmonds, Wash.; by her son Matthew Roberts of Carpinteria, and grandchildren, Scott (Meredith) and Adam Birdwell, Justin (Celeste) and Nathan (Jordan) Monroe, Aaron and Claire Ann Roberts, Tara (Ricardo), Andrew, Trevor, Sarah and Rosalie Roberts and Janie (Clint) Hartmann. She is also survived by four great-grandchildren and numerous dear friends.

In addition to her husband Glenn, she is predeceased by her sister Lua Safwenberg, brother Alfred Thurmond, son Steven Roberts and daughter-in-law Katie Roberts.

She was enormously loved and will be missed by her family but leaves a beautiful and lasting legacy of caring, love and compassion. A celebration of her life will be held this August. The time and place will be announced in the future.

Obituary

William Michael “Mickey” Germanetti

William Michael “Mickey” Germanetti lost his two year battle with cancer and its complications on May 14, 2017 at Cottage Hospital while surrounded by his loved ones, holding the hands of his” two girls,” his wife and granddaughter.

He was born and raised in Bakersfield, Calif. but had lived in Carpinteria for 53 years, which he called the “nearest place to Heaven.” Mickey was the son of CJ Germanetti and Evah Henington Germanetti. Due to divorce, he was raised by his dad, grandmother and most loved aunt, Mary Germanetti Bisso until CJ remarried to Betty Ruby when Mickey was 12. He would spend summers in Santa Barbara with his mother. Betty was to become one of his dearest friends besides being his stepmother.

After graduation Mick immediately enlisted in the Air Force where he proudly served for six years, spending three of those years living in Brussels, Belgium working with the Belgium Embassy through a NATO program. As there was no American base in the area, he and another airman in this project, Willis Leach, shared a three bedroom flat in downtown Brussels. They became lifelong friends.

He was able to travel around Europe on leaves. He was away from home more than three years on this assignment even signing on for an extra service year to complete this project. He left the military as a Staff Sargent.

After returning home he met his future wife, Roberta, at his family’s welcome home dinner in Carpinteria in November 1957. After love at first sight for both, they married in 1959. Five years the couple lived in Santa Barbara moving to Carpinteria right before the birth of their son, Craig.

Mickey’s career was as a service dispatcher for 18 years at Washburn Chevrolet in downtown Santa Barbara, and he completed his career with 17 years at Ford on Hope Avenue.

After his retirement in 1996, he went on to become very involved in his son’s racing career at Ventura Speedway where Craig was street stock champion for three years. He often worked at the Speedway alongside Craig doing flagging for the races. These years were truly some of Mickey’s happiest times leading him to become a NASCAR fan, especially when slowed down by illness.

Mick was a very talented man in doing woodwork and made many gifts for family friends. He loved “kidding around” and really didn’t like to take life too seriously. Also he was very loving and giving to all.

He is survived by his wife Roberta Rollins Germanetti; son Craig Germanetti and dear friend Janet Vayro; and most beloved granddaughter, Crystal Germanetti; two sisters, Patti Jost (Glenn) and Sandy Pruitt, both of Bakersfield; mother of his granddaughter, Beth Germanetti (divorced from Craig but never from the family, so almost becoming the daughter he never had); brother-in-law Mike and his wife Jeanl Rollins. He is also survived by two people he considered as much a part of his family, his “unofficially adopted grandson” Dylan Ortega of Buellton and his “unofficially adopted son” Shadd Blackwell of Overton, Nev. Not to be forgotten were his best friends, Al and Rebecca Sanchez of Torrance, Calif.

A memorial service will be held in the pavilion at Carpinteria Cemetery on Saturday, May 20 at 11 a.m.

Donations can be made in his name to the building fund at the Cancer Center in Santa Barbara at 300 West Pueblo Street, where Mickey loved everyone.

He would go for treatments and be his happiest. He thought the infusion nurses there to be the most fun, talented and each one his favorite. Our thanks to Dr. Frederic Kass, Oncologist, for his wonderful care.

Donations can also be made in his name to Visiting Nurse & Hospice Care or their Loan Cabinet at 512 East Gutierrez St., SB, CA 93103. Until needed, one never knows what a lifeline is extended to all. Again, a very gifted group of nurses and specialists made such a tremendous difference in our lives.

The teaching of a hug cvn

it takes a village Maria Fisk, PHD Director oF tHe carPinteria cHilDren’s Project

My friend Kate gave me a hug to keep. She’s given me a lot of hugs over the years, but this one is a shawl with a pocket and a kind note inside.

It’s wrapped tight around me now as I type, and its cozy warmth is almost unnaturally comforting, as if her arm were actually around me.

We all need hugs, the real kind and the symbolic kind we can literally carry around our shoulders or metaphorically carry around in our hearts. But to get these heartfelt, lasting hugs, we have to let our true selves shine. Our true, authentic, real selves—even the parts that are vulnerable, questioning, weak, under confident and apologetic. It’s easier for some than for others. If sharing feelings leads to hearing the equivalent of “Suck it up, Buttercup,” eventually you cut back on the sharing and then maybe eventually you don’t recognize your own feelings quite as well as you used to. My experience though, is that it gets easier with practice and that being vulnerable is usually rewarded with kindness and love.

I think it’s easier for little kids to express their feelings because they haven’t yet learned not to. This is good; this is healthy! Yes, wee ones need to learn to manage their emotions and express them appropriately, but we should help them retain their recognition of feelings. We should be sure to reward authenticity with kindness and love. We have to first observe and acknowledge the pain a child (or adult) feels. “I see you are hurt.” “I can tell from your tears you are sad.”

Or, if you aren’t sure, “You don’t seem yourself today. What’s going on?” It all boils down to I see you—really see you and what you are feeling—and I accept it as authentic and valid.

This acknowledgement and validation can be followed by silence. So many times we know what we need to do. We don’t necessarily need anyone to solve our problem for us, and we certainly don’t need problem solving before validation.

Sometimes we just need a hug so we can feel the strength of another propping us

Someone who is willing to see you and stand with you despite the discomfort of seeing you struggle: that’s someone who helps you grow stronger and healthier. That’s what your kids need, over and over. up. Oh so comforting is the connection with another person who sees your human frailty and doesn’t panic or try to stop it or tell you you’re wrong to have those feelings. Someone who is willing to see you and stand with you despite the discomfort of seeing you struggle: that’s someone who helps you grow stronger and healthier. That’s what your kids need, over and over.

So, for folks like me who like clear steps, it goes like this: notice the child’s emotion, acknowledge and validate it, provide silence for the child to sit with and process her feelings, and then—only then—gently help her problem solve.

And along the way, definitely love on that kiddo and give him a hug!

Every drop counts

SUBMITTED BY CARPINTERIA VALLEY WATER DISTRICT We don’t mean to rain on your parade, but despite the area’s above average precipitation this year, water conservation is still vital in our region. In April, Governor Jerry Brown issued an executive order that lifted the drought emergency in most of California; however, Santa Barbara County is still considered to be experiencing drought conditions. For Carpinteria Valley water users, Stage II drought water restrictions will remain in place. While California experienced record rainfall this winter that filled many of the states reservoirs, Governor Brown stressed that water “conservation must remain a way of life,” recognizing that water resources are still limited in thirsty California.

California’s winter floods, rainstorms and the northern Sierra Nevada’s wettest year on record since 1983 has caused most of the water-related conversations to focus on the staggering surface water increases. What often gets overlooked is the vital water supply right under your feet, namely groundwater. Luckily, Carpinteria Groundwater Basin carried Carpinteria Valley Water District (CVWD) customers through the drought when Lake Cachuma’s supply was no longer available in 2015 and 2016.

Although it has been comforting to see Lake Cachuma’s water level rise in recent months, this does not mean that the District will receive its full allotment.

The reservoir’s transformation from its historic low of 7-percent capacity last summer to 50 percent this April was noteworthy, but even with this substantial rise the District will only receive 40 percent of its Cachuma allocation in 2017. Moreover, future Cachuma allotments are expected to decline after 2020 as a result of newly proposed water releases for the benefits of downstream wildlife, sedimentation within the lake and a new understanding about the lake’s drought resiliency. Because of this, it is crucial to maintain and monitor the health of the groundwater basin as it continues to be an imperative source of water.

Because surface water supplies can be highly variable and costly, the District has been examining ways to reduce its dependence on Lake Cachuma and the State Water Project while still allowing the groundwater basin to recover. To explore additional options, CVWD, Carpinteria Sanitary District (CSD), City of Carpinteria, and the State Water Resources Control Board funded a study

to determine if implementing a groundwater recharge project using CSD’s recycled water could be an economical and feasible solution.

The study found that groundwater recharge with full advanced water treatment would vastly improve water supply reliability. Recharging Carpinteria Groundwater Basin with “purified” recycled water from CSD would not only provide a locally controlled drought resistant source of water, but it could also protect the groundwater supply from potential seawater intrusion.

Seawater intrusion is the movement of saline water into freshwater aquifers and is caused by long-term groundwater overdraft. Artificial groundwater recharge in Carpinteria would help to minimize this risk as groundwater continues to be a major source of supply for CVWD and for irrigation in agricultural areas. Furthermore, CVWD is pursuing a project to construct several monitoring wells near the coast, which would allow for early detection of seawater intrusion.

While the recycled water-recharge project is still in the early stages of discussion, the District’s current focus is managing the existing groundwater supply, especially considering anticipated changes associated with the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA) passed by Governor Brown in 2014. Much of this work will require that the District and the groundwater basin stakeholders collaborate on ways to collectively manage the basin in a sustainable way. To support that effort, the District will be holding informational meetings with local groundwater stakeholders this summer to begin the discussion.

We recognize that groundwater is a valuable local resource shared by the residents, agriculture and businesses within Carpinteria Valley. By developing a plan we can ensure groundwater resources in Carpinteria for the future.

We are doing everything we can to make certain the valley’s residents, farmers and businesses have an adequate water supply in the face of droughts, uncertainty in imported water supplies and regulatory changes.

Measure U Update—Rincon/Foothill high schools

By Christian Beamish

In terms of the changes that Measure U projects will bring to Rincon/Foothill high schools, the story is less about structural elements and high-tech classrooms (although both are coming), and more about the unique nature of the programs when the Rincon/Foothill schools move onto the campus of Carpinteria High circa 2020.

“The students with the biggest needs, need the most,” Rincon/Foothill Principal Barnaby Gloger said in explaining the nature of the programs he leads. While that statement may seem obvious at first glance, the principal was expressing the focus he brings to the students he serves.

“The more opportunities there are for Rincon/Foothill students,” Gloger continued, “the better it is for all of us.”

Although it may be easy to generalize about the reasons a student might be enrolled at Rincon or Foothill, “Most students, 90-percent,” Gloger pointed out, “have chosen to come” to the school. The main function of Rincon/Foothill is credit recovery, as once a student fails more than two courses at the high school level, he or she cannot graduate with their class.

“Many students come (to Rincon/Foothill) for a year then return to Carpinteria High School” Gloger said.

One scenario Principal Gloger offered was of a student who may be involved in “Career Technical Education” in either Culinary Arts or the Agriculture program at the high school, but struggles with mathematics or language arts classes.

Once that student comes to Rincon/ Foothill—currently located on their own campus next to the high school but separated by a fence and berm—he or

she cannot continue to participate in CTE classes at Carpinteria High School. Gloger hopes that once the respective schools are located on the same campus, more resources will be available to his students.

“The more we share resources (once Rincon and Foothill relocate to Carpinteria High),” Gloger said, “it might change public perception” of his schools’ mission. “For the kids who don’t do well at CHS, they can kind of retreat to Rincon in a safe, individualized environment” he noted. Rincon High School students go to school until 1 p.m. each day, and most of them work, Gloger said. Foothill students study independently and meet on campus on Wednesday of each week, and Gloger said that most of those students also work full time to help support their families, and/or may be teen parents.

With approximately 30 students enrolled at Rincon High School and 20 at Foothill, Gloger said that some students struggle with anxiety or other personal challenges that make attending a big high school impossible. The programs at Rincon/Foothill “allow them to access their education,” Gloger said. Carpinteria Unified School District provides social and emotion support to students through counselors and therapists available at each campus.

The biggest challenge facing Rincon/ Foothill schools in their eventual move to the existing administration building on the Carpinteria High School campus will be keeping its small-school feel while attempting to integrate, where feasible, with the larger, more “main-stream” institution. One immediate upside of the move will be the shared resources of a one-campus location, namely in custodial and maintenance services as Rincon/ Foothill currently get only one-hour of

custodial work per day.

Rincon/Foothill have three portable classrooms and three teachers to serve all of their students. While the population of Rincon/Foothill ebbs and flows, the number of students at Rincon tends to increase at the back half of each school year. Interestingly, the new CommonCore Standards for students in California focus on project-based learning, which is an approach that has long been part of the program at Rincon/Foothill.

The new space on the CHS campus will be designed concurrently with the new admin building to be constructed from

The entrance to Rincon/Foothill will be on the building’s south side, facing Foothill Road, with a small grass area and the native plant restoration area to distinguish it from the rest of Carpinteria High. All of the 21st-century upgrades that are coming to the other CUSD campuses will come to the one-building campus of Rincon/Foothill high schools in order to serve the students who, as Gloger noted, need the most services to succeed.

Art studios swing open to public PHOTOS BY ROBIN KARLSSON

Long before art is hung on the wall, it’s created in a private space far from curious eyes. But every year, the Carpinteria Arts Center’s Artist Studio Tour pulls back the veil and reveals the spaces where local artists work. This year 30 painters, builders and potters welcomed art tourists into their studios to admire finished pieces along with works in progress. A portion of every art piece sold benefited the nonprofit Arts Center.

Artist Birgitte Ibsen, right, and Dottie Hawkins enjoy Ibsen’s abstract works.

June 1, 2017 will mark exactly 50 years to the day since the Beatles’ historic Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band LP was first released. In celebration, the Plaza Playhouse Theater presents the return of the Southern California pop combo Sgt. Pepper live on stage to perform the entire album, song-by-song, complete with orchestral effects. The Beatles never performed the album live as it would have required bringing along a 40-piece orchestra, but with today’s digital recording magic at their fingertips, Sgt. Pepper will make it sound as though the orchestra is right there. All the members of the band are steeped in the songs of the Fab Four, having played their music for decades. Once the entire album has been performed, Sgt. Pepper will launch into another high-energy set highlighting the classic monster hits of the Lads from Liverpool who shook up the world in the 1960’s and whose legacy remains with us to this day. Tickets for the Thursday, June 1 Sgt. Pepper show at 8 p.m. are $30 general admission and available online and at the theater box office one hour prior to show time.

Vinyl Shack offers ear-pleasing nostalgia Murphy’s Vinyl Shack is often heard before it’s seen. Kevin Murphy, owner and operator of the new-ish record store on the corner of Carpinteria and Palm avenues, likes to sample his wares at window rattling volume until patrons walk through the door. The business is a passion for Murphy, who opened the shop early this year and has since confirmed his suspicion that vintage posters and records are a passion for many residents and visitors to Carpinteria.

“Everyone gets to come in and relive the vibe,” Murphy said, looking around at the walls covered in throwback posters and framed album covers while the tunes pump from the record player alongside the register. “For guys, a vinyl store is a magnet,” he added.

“They’ll slam on the brakes and turn around.”

Before opening Murphy’s, Kevin BOYD worked in sales for 40 years.

What’s new at the harbor seal rookery?

The following counts taken from May 8-14 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

240

High Pup Count

still identifiable as pups

About 1,319 people came to view the seals during volunteer hours. Included were visitors from Finland, China, Mexico, South Africa, Austria, Germany, Canada, Oregon, Colorado, Washington, Arizona, Washington DC, Nevada, Georgia, Florida, Massachusetts, New York, Kansas, Oklahoma, Iowa, New Jersey and Connecticut. A few school groups were noted.

Disturbances

Helicopters caused three flights to the ocean, oil industry activity caused two disturbances, and additional disturbances were caused by an umbrella opening on the blufftop and bicyclists near the pier entry.

Natural History Notes

Possible sea otter sightings have been reported a few times in recent weeks; without a bit more verification the sightings are not certain but would not be surprising. The sea otter translocation program, which required the removal of sea otters from a “no-otter” management zone including the Santa Barbara Channel, ended a couple years ago. Since then sea otter numbers have increased, but mostly just in central California and not as much to the south and north. Nevertheless, sightings here seem likely to increase.

More Info

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 carpsealwatch@gmail.com if you are interested in volunteering.

Rockers reborn: Carp-connected Dishwalla releases album after hiatus

BY PETER DUGRÉ

Over 20 years after its 1995 alternativerock megahit “Counting Blue Cars,” Dishwalla tapped into its creative core to generate Jupiter Road, a new album released May 5 that has local band members feeling like their musical juju has been rejuvenated. According to Carpinteria resident and Dishwalla lead guitarist Rodney Browning Cravens, it was time to get back into the studio after a decade spent touring with other 1990s mainstays like Collective Soul, Gin Blossom and Matchbox 20, among others, to musically reflect on the growth achieved and life lived having rocked out around the world.

“Nobody stays the same musically,” Cravens said. “(Jupiter Road) captures the intellect and growth all of us have experienced just as music fans and listeners.”

Lead singer Justin Fox, who joined the band in 2008 and hasn’t missed a beat in place of original singer JR Richards, also lives in Carpinteria. As with Cravens, Fox said when he’s home from the road he does as Carpinterians do: Lucky Llama coffee, brewery hopping and enjoying friends and family while soaking in the beach town vibe.

He said the band had an itch to get back into the studio. “Going into it, we had a goal,” Fox said. “We had spent the last 10 years touring quite heavily, so we wanted to make sure the album reflected the crowd and the energy of those rock shows.”

The band spent six months recording and refining its vision to produce an album that speaks both to where Dishwalla has been and how it arrived at its present incarnation. Fox said that sometimes life and family and real world (not rock world) responsibilities can distract from the creative process, so they retreated to Joshua Tree for two weeks and occupied the home of singer/songwriter Eric Burdon, the rocker famous from his days as part of The Animals. Burdon lives in Ojai and is Fox’s friend.

Dishwalla has a new album, but is still sought after to perform its 1996 hit “Counting Blue Cars,” which won Billboard’s best rock song that year.

They created a makeshift studio at the remote home and let the music happen.

“It was a trippy experience,” Fox said.

Joshua Tree proved a worthy muse. Fox recounted the creation of one of his favorite tracks from the new album “Miles Away” as a one-day jolt of inspiration.

The band wrote it in one night and in order to capture the mellow, acoustic essence of “Miles Away” on the spot, they recorded it the next morning, Fox draping a blanket over his head when recording vocals for lack of equipment in their desert getaway.

An update on the granular, guitar-driven sound and vibe of mid-90s alternative rock, Cravens said the new album strikes a balance between remaining true to longtime Dishwalla fans and taking some risks to update the band’s catalogue and musical story. “Most people have said it’s a perfect addendum,” Cravens said. “For the core fans it’s similar enough. It feels

creatively and sonically on point.”

Cravens described the making of the music as an all-hands-on-deck collaboration. “It’s a chopping block. We all bring in ideas and chop ‘em up until we get something that satisfies our collective taste,” he said. He attributes the band’s ability to create as a collective to a chemistry that ultimately finds consensus and the best possible sound.

Fox considers the modern, up tempo song “Don’t Fade Away” the most likely to be a hit. “It’s a step into the current radio rock and away from what Dishwalla was known for in the past,” he said.

The Carpinteria-based duo joined

other band members bassist Scot Alexander, keyboardist Jim Wood and drummer George Pendergast on the road for a tour that will take them all around the country through August. Unlike the steady touring of the past decade that had Dishwalla in the comfort zone of rocking out on established songs to established fans, this time around they’ll be testing their new material. “We’ve been playing some of the other songs for so long now that it’s nice; it’s a breath of fresh air,” Cravens said.

Dear Donnie, My daughter has had three serious boyfriends and it has always ended badly—she either got dumped or replaced.

Dear aCCeptanCe, We’re in a new world now where gender labels are more fluid, so don’t look for a label for this new relationship.

Most mothers want their daughters to get married and give them grandchildren, but true mother love means wanting their daughters to experience love in whatever form it takes. Get to know this new love and you may find that you are truly happy for your daughter and become very comfortable with the idea.

No labels, please.

Political correctness has replaced hurtful comments and jokes and that is a good thing. We no longer hear those slurs in polite company, but in private some people resort to it in order to feel superior to others or to get a laugh at somebody else’s expense. Assure your wife it is nothing personal, and before long she may find herself laughing at jokes that used to bother her.

Dear Donnie, For the first time in my life, I am head over heels in love. This is strange since I was married for six years. It was a huge relief when we got a divorce. We were a bad fit. My problem is my career. I have a professional practice here that is very successful and my new lover is suddenly being transferred to Ireland and wants me to go with him. I have worked so hard to get where I am that I’m afraid to give it all up. He is valued at his company and doesn’t want to risk his future by refusing the transfer. We’re in a tough place and need some good advice.

Freshman Ethan Ha look to three more years as a winning member of the Cate tennis team.

BY ALONZO OROZCO

Submit your Sports News at coastalview.com

Senior Kevin Ha’s record for the season is 47-2

Ha brothers clean up the courts

Cate School’s tennis team is riding a phenomenal season toward a CIF Division III championship, and two major reasons for the Rams’ success are brothers Ethan and Kevin Ha. Raised in Carpinteria, Kevin, a senior, and Ethan, a freshman, started playing tennis at an early age.

The boys each started swinging rackets at around 6 years old, said their dad, Ken Ha, whose been playing tennis himself for 15 years and also coaches the sport. The two boys grew up playing at Santa Barbara Polo & Racquet Club and at community courts around town.

The siblings logged quite a few hours on the courts playing with their parents.

“We used tennis to grow,” Kevin said, adding, “we learned so much of life’s lessons playing tennis.”

“We got to know other people; we got to know ourselves,” explained Ken, who along with his wife, Fon, own Carpinteria Nails.

Kevin made quite an impact at Cate from the start. “Coming in as a freshman, (Kevin) has won every single league championship,” said coach Jason Saltouin-Ebin. The senior continued to dominate this season. “I think he’s won 35 out of 36 sets this season,” added the coach. Ethan has also been impressive on the court in his first season. A few weeks ago the younger Ha bested his older brother in the Tri-Valley League

Singles Championship, ending Kevin’s streak of league titles.

The Rams coach attributes the brothers’ success to their “extra drive” to compete. “For us, we started playing tournaments at a really young age, and the competition was always instilled in ourselves, so we always wanted to win,” said Kevin, who will play tennis for Skidmore College of New York starting next fall.

“I think I find my drive to make my parents proud; they pay a lot of money for me to play the sport, and I don’t want it to go to waste,” said Ethan.

For coach Saltouin-Ebin, the team’s accomplishments have come as no surprise. “We worked really, really hard last year to get to where we are right now, and we knew we had Ethan coming in,” he said. To complement the two local phenoms, Cate has dominated doubles play with the number-one team of senior Christian Herman and junior Joseph Thomassen. The Rams have also seen great success from their number-two doubles team of junior Charles Morris and sophomore Brad Gordon, and the number-three doubles duo of senior Mason Mackall and sophomore Charles Xie. “At the beginning of the season, we were really excited this year, and (a CIF championship) was our goal,” said Saltouin-Ebin. Former coach Bob Bonning spent 40 years at the helm, where he developed a long tradition of success.

Saltouin-Ebin, in his second year, is reap-

catapult the Rams to a 18-0 record and a trip to the CIF Division III Semifinals.

How far the Rams go could hinge on the performance of a couple of brothers who board up on Cate Mesa after honing their skills in town.

Carp United go off to a strong start and finished the competition with a 3-1 record.

Facing Culver City in the final the team suffered a 2-1 loss. “We lost a key player to a hamstring injury against Bakersfield, but our girls are relentless and picked up the pace on Sunday morning. Unfortunately we could not convert our opportunities in the final and we came up a little short,” said Coach Jorge Reynoso.

CHS football continues spring practice

The Carpinteria High School football team’s spring practice is already underway.

New Head Coach Rick Candaele has invited the public to come out and get a preview of next year’s team. The Warriors have been running through their drills and will continue scrimmaging at Valley Memorial Stadium from Monday to Thursday from 6 to 8 p.m. until the end of the month. The squad will wind up their session with the Spring Game scheduled for Thursday, June 1.

Nutbelly supports Junior Warriors

The Carpinteria Junior Warriors football program will be holding “A Cook’s Night Out” fundraising event on Thursday, May 18th from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. at Nutbelly Pizzaria, 915 Linden Ave. The restaurant will donate 20 percent of sales on any takeout or dine-in orders. The fundraiser will apply to anyone who mentions it when picking up or ordering. Call 684-3354 to reserve a spot.

On April 29 at approximately 2:45 a.m. a woman saw a man enter the walkway in front of her 9th Street residence and attempt to drag off a cooler with various alcoholic beverages inside. She banged on the window to indicate to the man that she saw him attempting to steal the cooler and he abandoned his robbery attempt, jumped the fence and ran toward Holly Avenue. The woman told deputies that she had never seen the man before and that she would probably not be able to identify him if she saw him again. A K9 unit searched the area but did not find the suspect.

Unsafe decisions

On May 6 at approximately 2:45 p.m. a deputy was dispatched to a motel on Carpinteria Avenue on a report of an intoxicated woman refusing to leave after check-out time and then driving away in a black sports car. The deputy found a car that matched the vehicle’s description parked in front of a drugstore at a shopping center farther west on Carpinteria Avenue. The deputy noted that he smelled alcohol on the woman’s breath when he spoke to her as she sat in the driver’s seat of the vehicle. The deputy could not prove that the woman had driven the car while intoxicated, but she stumbled when she exited the vehicle and could not complete a “horizontal gaze nystagmus test.” The woman had “a hard time” answering the deputy’s questions and admitted drinking two beers at 8 a.m. The deputy believed the woman had driven to the shopping center from the motel, and was therefore “not making safe decisions.” The deputy arrested the woman for public intoxication and left her vehicle parked in the shopping center lot.

Smoking illicit substances

On May 7 at approximately 11:30 a.m. a deputy observed a SUV parked at angle in a parking stall on El Carro Lane.

The deputy ran the vehicle’s plates and found that the registered owner had a warrant for his arrest. Upon contacting the driver, the deputy discovered that he was the registered owner and placed him under arrest for the warrant. The man then told the deputy that he had crystal

meth in the front pocket of his pants and more under the driver’s-side floor mat.

The deputy found the meth both in the man’s pocket and under the floor mat of his vehicle, and also recovered a pipe with burnt residue from “smoking illicit substances.” The man was arrested and taken to Santa Barbara County Jail.

A new tube and tire

On May 8 at approximately 9 a.m. a deputy responded to a call on Walnut Avenue from a 60-year-old homeless man who said another man had muttered derogatory comments and punctured the tire of his bike with a knife. The homeless man had been sitting by a flagpole on Walnut Avenue when the incident happened, and the man he accused of slashing his bike tire then rode away on his own bicycle. The man said he did not know the man who punctured his tire, but that he would press charges if deputies found him. The total damages amounted to $27: $7 for a new tube and $20 for a tire.

Resting nystagmus

On May 9 at approximately 4:20 p.m. a clerk from a business on Casitas Pass Road called the Sheriff’s Office to report an intoxicated man leaving the parking lot in a vehicle, driving eastbound toward a shopping center. A deputy responded to the parking lot of the shopping center and found a vehicle matching the description the clerk had provided and also spotted a man matching the description that had been given of the driver. The deputy reported that he asked the man to sit down and answer some questions. A strong odor of alcohol was coming from the man, and his answers to the deputy’s questions were incoherent. The deputy reported that he observed “resting nystagmus and that (name withheld)’s eyes were glassy.”

The deputy determined that the man was unable to care for his own safety and arrested him for public intoxication. Due to the valuables in the man’s vehicle, it was towed and impounded for safekeeping.

Public Notices ORDINANCE NO. 715 AN URGENCY ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CARPINTERIA, CALIFORNIA ESTABLISHING A MORATORIUM ON COMMERCIAL MARIJUANA ACTIVITIES wHEREAS, pursuant to the City of Carpinteria’s (“City”) police power, as granted under Article XI, section 7 of the California Constitution, the City Council of the City (“City Council”) has the authority to enact and enforce ordinances and regulations for public health, safety and welfare; and wHEREAS, pursuant to its police powers, the City has authority to regulate and prohibit medical marijuana activities, including the establishment of cooperatives and collectives (City of Riverside v Inland Empire Patients Health & Wellness Ctr., Inc. (2013) 56 Cal.4th 729); and wHEREAS, as set forth in Chapter 14.59 of the Carpinteria Municipal Code (“CMC”), the City currently prohibits the establishment, operation or maintenance of medical marijuana dispensaries, as well as the cultivation and delivery of medical marijuana, with the exception of cultivation by a primary caregiver or qualified patient or delivery by a primary caregiver to a qualified patient, when conducted in strict compliance with applicable state law; and wHEREAS, on November 8, 2016, the voters of the State of California approved Proposition 64, entitled the “Control, Regulate and Tax Adult Use of Marijuana Act”; and wHEREAS, Proposition 64 legalizes and regulates nonmedical marijuana in California and requires nonmedical marijuana businesses, including cultivators, manufacturers, distributors, retailers, and testing laboratories, to obtain a state license in order to operate lawfully. The state will not issue licenses if the proposed nonmedical marijuana business violates a local ordinance.

The state anticipates that it will begin issuing licenses for nonmedical marijuana businesses on or about January 1, 2018; and wHEREAS, Business and Professions Code section 26200, which is part of Proposition 64, expressly recognizes the ability of cities to completely prohibit all nonmedical marijuana commercial activities or to regulate such activities; and wHEREAS, under Proposition 64, individuals may possess and use specified amounts of marijuana and may cultivate up to six marijuana plants per private residence. Under Health and Safety Code section 11362.2(b), cities may prohibit private outdoor marijuana cultivation, but may not prohibit completely private indoor cultivation of six marijuana plants or less.

Cities, however, may reasonably regulate private indoor cultivation of six marijuana plants or less; and wHEREAS, as set forth in Chapter 8.14 of the CMC, the City has imposed regulations on the individual cultivation of marijuana for nonmedical purposes in accord with the restrictions of Proposition 64; and wHEREAS, it is imperative that the City maintain local control over all marijuana land uses to the fullest extent allowed by law. The City anticipates that Proposition 64 may encourage the establishment of various marijuana businesses within the City. The Municipal Code does not currently address commercial marijuana activities. While no one may conduct such activities in the City without a state license, express Municipal Code regulations regarding marijuana cultivation facilities, manufacturing sites, transporters, distributors, testing laboratories, and other business activities are necessary to provide clear guidelines regarding the scope of prohibited conduct and minimize the potential for confusion regarding the City’s policies; and wHEREAS, the adoption of an ordinance that addresses commercial marijuana activities will take time and careful consideration and will require input from various community stakeholders and the general public. Until that process is complete, an interim urgency ordinance under Government Code section 65858(a) is necessary to protect the public health, safety, and welfare; and wHEREAS, marijuana establishments and activities often present health, welfare, and public safety issues for cities. Several California cities and counties have experienced adverse impacts associated with and resulting from marijuana dispensaries, delivery services, and cultivation sites. According to these communities and according to news stories widely reported, marijuana land uses have resulted in and/or caused an increase in crime, including burglaries, robberies, violence, and illegal sales and use of marijuana in the areas immediately surrounding such marijuana activities.

Carpinteria residents have complained about odors emanating from large-scale growing operations in the vicinity of the City. Marijuana cultivation sites have been associated with illegal construction, unsafe electrical wiring, excessive water use, and fire hazards; and

wHEREAS, manufacturing of cannabis products can involve the use of chemicals and solvents, and as a result, the manufacture of hash oil concentrate, often added to edibles, drink and liquids, carries a risk of explosion due to the distillation process utilized to extract tetrahydrocannabinol. Bum treatment centers at two hospitals in Northern California reported in 2015 that nearly 10 percent of severe bum cases were attributed to butane hash oil explosions, which was more than bum cases from car accidents and house fires combined; and wHEREAS, in 2015, there were at least five marijuana-related wildfires in California linked to marijuana growing operations; and wHEREAS, it is reasonable to conclude that commercial marijuana activities could cause similar adverse impacts on the public health, safety, and welfare in Carpinteria, and residents have already complained about negative impacts related to odors; and wHEREAS, it may be necessary to adopt regulations on commercial marijuana activities to protect the public against potential negative health, safety, and welfare impacts, and this moratorium is necessary to ensure the orderly and effective implementation of any regulations the Council may adopt; and wHEREAS, an initial period of 45 days will permit City staff to undertake an initial investigation of these matters and recommend a course of action to the City Council; and wHEREAS, California Government Code section 65858 provides that for the purpose of protecting the public safety, health and welfare and without following the procedures otherwise required prior to adoption of a zoning ordinance, the City Council may adopt, as an urgency measure, an urgency ordinance prohibiting any uses which may be in conflict with “a 2035444\ l 058\15647013 .3 contemplated general plan, specific plan, or zoning proposal that the legislative body, planning commission or the planning department is considering or studying or intends to study within a reasonable time.”

NOw, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL HEREBY ORDAINS AS FOLLOwS:

SECTION 1. Recitals Incorporated.

The above recitals are incorporated herein and are each relied upon independently by the City Council in its adoption of this Ordinance.

SECTION 2. Declaration of Urgency.

The City Council of the City hereby finds and declares that, for the reasons set forth in the above Recitals, there is a need to adopt this Ordinance establishing a moratorium on commercial marijuana activities within the City. City staff requires time to study issues surrounding commercial marijuana activities, including evolving state and federal laws, so that it can propose appropriate regulations ensuring that the effects of commercial marijuana activities on the health, safety and welfare of the residents and businesses of Carpinteria are adequately addressed.

SECTION 3. Moratorium.

In accordance with Government Code section 65858(a), and pursuant to the findings stated herein, the City Council hereby: (1) finds that there exists a current and immediate threat to the public health, safety, and welfare requiring this interim Urgency Ordinance; (2) finds that this Ordinance is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, and safety as set forth herein; and (3) declares and imposes a temporary moratorium for the immediatepreservation of the public health, safety and welfare as set forth below: A. Commercial marijuana activities are prohibited in all zoning districts in the City and may not be established or operated anywhere in the City.

B. For purposes of this Ordinance, the following definitions apply: 1. “Commercial marijuana activity” means any business, enterprise, or commercial activity of any kind whatsoever related to marijuana, whether licensed under state law or not, and whether operated for profit or not, including but not limited to: a) Possession, manufacture, distribution, processmg, storing, laboratory testing, labeling, or sale of marijuana or marijuana products; cultivation of marijuana, as defined in CMC section 8.14.020; and transportation or delivery of marijuana or marijuana products within the City, whether originating inside or outside of the City’s jurisdiction, with the exception of transportation or delivery with both an origination and destination point outside of the City’s jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any marijuana activities conducted in accordance with Chapter 8.14 or 314.59 of the Carpinteria Municipal Code, as well as all applicable state laws, are not considered “commercial marijuana activities” prohibited by this Ordinance. b) The association of qualified patients, persons with valid identification cards, or primary caregivers, who associate in order to collectively or cooperatively cultivate, manufacture, distribute, sell, or deliver marijuana or marijuana products for medical purposes.

2. “Marijuana” shall have the meaning

Coastal View News • Carpinteria, California

set forth in Health and Safety Code section 11018, and includes marijuana for both medical and nonmedical use.

3. “Marijuana products” shall have the meaning set forth in Health and Safety Code section 11018.1, and includes marijuana products for both medical and nonmedical use.

SECTION 4: Effective Date and Duration.

This ordinance is an urgency ordinance enacted under Government Code section 65858(a). This urgency ordinance is effective May 8, 2017 and will extend for a period of 45 days at which time it will automatically expire unless extended by the City Council under Government Code section 65858.

SECTION 5: Amendment of Ordinance.

The City Council by ordinance after notice of public hearing and by the affirmative vote of at least four-fifths ( 4/5) of the City Councils may modify, amend, delete or add to this Ordinance upon a finding that such action will implement and enforce the goals, policies, and purposes of this Ordinance.

SECTION 6: Publication.

The City Clerk is directed to certify this ordinance and cause it to be published in the manner required by law.

SECTION 7: Study.

Staff is directed to study and analyze issues related to the establishment or operation of commercial marijuana activities within the City, including but not limited to, evaluating conflicts in state and federal law concerning the validity of the legislation, the potential impacts of such activities on public health, safety and welfare of the community, the desirability of such activities in various zones, and the extent of regulatory controls, if any, to impose on such activities.

SECTION 8: Report.

Staff is directed to provide a written report to the City Council at least ten days prior to the expiration of this ordinance, describing the measures taken to alleviate the conditions that led to the adoption of this ordinance, in accordance with state law.

SECTION 9: Interpretation and Severability.

This Ordinance is intended to be consistent with state and federal law, and is not intended to regulate in any area preempted by state or federal law. If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase or word of this Ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, such decisions shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this Ordinance. The City Council hereby declares that it would have passed and adopted this Ordinance, and each and all provisions hereof, irrespective of the fact that one or more provisions may be declared invalid.

SECTION 10: CEQA Exemption.

The City Council finds that this Ordinance is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, sections: 15060( c )(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment); 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in section 153 78); and 15061 (b)(3) (the activity is covered by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment). The proposed ordinance maintains the status quo and prevents changes in the environment pending the completion of study and any amendment to the municipal code deemed necessary.

Because there is no possibility that this Ordinance may have a significant adverse effect on the environment, the adoption of this Ordinance is exempt from CEQA.

A belfry stood at the front of the building, and former student John Joseph Rodriguez remembered, “For fun the boys used to tie a small thread to the bell, carry it over to the tree, and tie it to a high branch where they could pull it occasionally, and the teacher couldn’t discover how it was being rung.”

By the early 1900s, Carpinteria boasted three tiny schools that served students scattered throughout the valley. In 1913, the district consolidated these educational outposts into one large facility, the Union School. The old schoolhouse on Santa Monica Road was torn down and materials salvaged for a two-story building located on 7th Street across from The Palms.

The Carpinteria-Holland love affair turns 50

Submitted photo

on April 15, 150 Van Wingerden family members gathered at Lions park to celebrate 50 years since the family emigrated from the Netherlands to Carpinteria. the original four dutch brothers—Case, henry, John and William Van Wingerden—left holland in 1967 with their wives and 23 children. having mastered greenhouse farming in the Netherlands, the brothers relied on their experience and willingness to work hard to create dutch brothers, inc., a 16-acre greenhouse operation on Foothill Road that soon became a thriving source of carnations, tulips, anemones, freesias and chrysanthemums. Now the family boasts 50 years of greenhouse growing success in Carpinteria Valley and is deep into its fourth generation. The original nursery has multiplied into many, and the Van Wingerden name has become synonymous with flower growing in Carpinteria.

Questioning Summerland School CVn

a monthly muse melinda wittwer In my book, public schools are sacred.

They offer equal opportunity to any and all who want to work hard. At least that is the goal and one reason why there is so much interest and concern about the quality of our local schools in terms of how they are run, how resources are allocated and how instruction can be improved. With that in mind, I am writing this as an open letter to the Carpinteria Unified School District and to all people interested in the recent comparisons of Summerland School, Carpinteria Family School, Aliso School and Canalino School. In particular, I have many questions about Summerland School as well as much respect for its accomplishments.

I invite answers and clarification of facts from the Carpinteria School District.

Let me make it clear, this is not meant to be an attack on Summerland School.

It is my understanding that Summerland School earns the highest test scores in the district year after year. The quality of its education seems to be a magnet that draws students from other schools.

Also, this school has a healthy core of dedicated parents as a support group, and the school seems to be an integral part of the town of Summerland. But I still have questions I would like answered.

Year after year, watching the number of students in Carpinteria schools decline, I have asked myself why there is a Summerland School at all. Main School was closed several years ago because of decreasing enrollment, while the classrooms in Summerland were portable structures with much need of improvement. Now it seems Summerland School is partially filling its enrollment with transfer students because there are not enough local children. Why not close Summerland School and move those students to the larger schools in Carpinteria? I have heard the rumors that way back when, as part of unifying the local schools into one district, it was agreed that Summerland would always have a school, but I would like to know officially why there has to be school in Summerland. Having to service, staff and maintain this school does not seem to be the best financial decision. For instance, wouldn’t it make more sense for one principal to be able to focus on one school rather than split efforts and attention between two as now happens when the Aliso principal spends 80 percent at Aliso and 20 percent of her time overseeing the Summerland campus?

On the Summerland School website, it states that there are 69 students in four classrooms which averages 17 students per class. How does this number compare to the average class size at Aliso and Canalino schools? Most public schools today have classes ranging from 24 to 30 students and above. Perhaps class size is another reason the Summerland School is successful. I have always thought a good teacher is the most important element for a great educational environment, but the second most important piece is class size.

“Why not close Summerland School and move those students to the larger schools in Carpinteria?”

Wouldn’t it be a worthy goal for all classes in the Carpinteria School District to be 20 or less? If this can be accomplished in Summerland, why not in all the Carpinteria schools?

As far as ethnic diversity, Summerland School’s “Accountability Report Card” states that of the 69 students, 4.2 students are Asian, 9.4 are Hispanic, 51.2 are White, and 4.2 are Mixed Race. How do these numbers compare to the ethnic mixtures in the population of the other Carpinteria schools? Do these numbers reflect the racial mixture in the community?

I would also like to clarify a few issues that affect test scores. Does Summerland School service any special education students or are all special ed programs at either Canalino or Aliso schools? Does Summerland School have any very limited English speaking students or, again, are these students taught at the other schools? The reason this is important is that state testing includes the results of all students. Therefore, a school that has many special education students and/or language-impacted students, will usually see a negative effect on the overall test scores.

Furthermore, what percentage of Summerland students actually go on to be students at Carpinteria Middle School?

In the past, numerous parents love Summerland School, but when their children have to advance to the Middle School, these children are moved to private or religious schools and their families are no longer participants involved in Carpiniteria Unified. In fact, one past school board member resigned soon after she learned her child would have to go on to the Middle School in sixth grade. She was pushing for Summerland sixth-graders to be able to stay in Summerland one more year. When this did not happen, she was done with the district.

In many ways Summerland is a successful school, but at what cost to the rest of the district? Does the Carpinteria Unified School District end up paying more per student to educate the children attending Summerland School than it does to educate pupils at Aliso or Canalino or the Carpinteria Family School? Has Summerland School become more like a private school funded with public dollars? Yes, parents should search out the best educational opportunities for their children, but it remains for the rest of the citizens to advocate for the “best” educational opportunities to be available for the greatest number of all our students. Public education is the gift of equal opportunity. Let’s make sure it’s allocated equally.

Melinda Wittwer first moved to Carpinteria in 1972 and taught mostly junior high students in Oxnard during her 25-year career.

Now retired, she enjoys pottery, writing, books and travel.

Christian Athletes Club enjoys fellowship

Over the weekend of April 21 and 22, students from the Fellowship of Christian Athletes Club at Carpinteria High went on a retreat to San Marcos Christian Camps off Paradise Road. Club leaders Harmony Reed, Cian Figueras and Ian Reed planned the two days of fun and fellowship with “minute to win it” games, paintball, pool time, water balloon fights, night games and a sunrise hike. They also invited two Calvary Chapel pastors to share at different times, led small group discussions and encouraged their peers to grow deeper in their faith in life and in their sport. The FCA Club meets every Monday on campus at lunch with pizza, games and encouraging messages.

Students explore technology

Parent volunteers from Canalino and Carpinteria Family schools led the sixthannual Techsploration event on the Canalino campus on April 21. Local companies contributed their time and equipment to showcase the technologies their industries use, offering students hands-on experience with the various technologies that exist in our community. From bees to automotive parts, protective metal paint to wastewater treatment, images from space observatory telescopes to computer hardware, robotics to 3-D printers, material science to solar energy vehicles, suspension cables, soundboards and assistive technology devices, children from mixed grade levels explored each station with a company representative, parent volunteer and/or college STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) club student.

ON THE ROAD

CVN goes Hawaiian

Alex and Louisa Ornelas took their Coastal View News and two kids, Jade and Jacob, on a trip to Oahu where they visited the Dole pineapple plantation in Wahaiwa. James Dole, founder of the Hawaiian Pineapple Company (which later became the Dole Foods company), came to Hawaii in 1899 and benefitted greatly from the coup d’état that his cousin Sanford Dole and other American businessmen orchestrated against Queen Lili’uokalani in January 1893.

1. First Impression: According to the National Association of Realtors, Millennials have been the largest percentage of home buyers for the last four years in a row. This tech- savvy generation tends to start home searches on the internet; therefore, it is important to have high quality photos and even a video posted on your local MLS and other home buying/selling websites for buyers to see. If the pictures don’t leave a good impression, you might not even get prospective buyers through your front door. Good online representation and curb appeal are crucial. There are no second chances for first impressions.

2. The Price is Right: Sellers sometimes overlook how important the right listing price really is. Here are some common misconceptions: “If we don’t get the price that we list it at then we will just lower the price.” In fact, statistics show that houses with a price reduction history tend to sit on the market longer and in the end sell for less than other similar homes.

“I want to leave in some price room for negotiations.” This may actually lower the number of potential buyers who see your house. Lower demand for your home equals lower sales price. Since more buyers are shopping for their home online, they start their search by entering their desired price range. If you hope to sell your house for $800,000 but list is at $830,000 to build in some room for negotiation, any potential buyers that look for homes in the $700,000 to $800,000 range won’t even know your house is available.

3. Sparse is Best: It is important for potential buyers to walk into your home and imagine themselves living in it. I suggest that my sellers get rid of at least one-third of their stuff. Putting it in storage or even in organized boxes in the garage or a shed can make a difference.

And don’t be fooled—you can’t just stuff it all into your closets and cupboards.

Make sure all your storage space in your home is clean and organized. Potential buyers will snoop. They want to see just what sort of storage the home has to offer, and a cluttered closet or pantry is a major turn off. A sparse house looks bigger and more open.

It may seem harsh for a Realtor to tell you to get rid of your memorabilia, collections and family photos, but you are selling your house not your stuff. The goal of depersonalizing the home is to allow buyers to move in and decorate in their minds—imagine themselves and their things in the space. In my experience this

If this task seems too daunting then consider hiring a home staging.

4. Ready, Set, Sell: Be ready at all times to show. While this can be a major inconvenience, especially to working families with children, it is a must. Do your best to have your home accessible and ready to show when buyers request.

Don’t head off to work with dishes in the sink, unmade beds and a disheveled yard.

You never know when a buyer’s agent is going to call with a request to show. Do your best to accommodate all showings.

The more buyers you show, the more likely your house will sell.

5. Focus on the Heart: The kitchen is a home’s heart—this is so important. In fact, you aren’t even selling your house, you are selling your kitchen. Just kidding, but kind of not. If there is one room you can afford to add some sparkle it should be in the kitchen. If a kitchen has, say, outdated Formica counter tops it could only cost about $2,000 to replace them, but a potential buyer may knock off $10,000 in their offer price because of it. Simple kitchen upgrades include a new coat of paint, new kitchen faucet, new cabinet hardware, steam cleaned tile grout or even just one shiny new appliance.

Set yourself up for a successful sale by retaining a good Realtor and keeping these five steps in mind. Happy selling!
