Briefly

Bank bandit sought for nine robberies

Authorities believe that one man robbed two Carpinteria banks last spring and then at least seven other banks throughout Southern California in the months that followed. Labeled the “Seasoned Bandit,” the man remains at large and is sought by the FBI and law enforcement partners in Los Angeles and Santa Barbara counties. The robber is described as a white male in his 50s or 60s. He wears casual clothing, a hat and sunglasses, and can be seen in bank surveillance photographs being distributed to the press.

The moniker “Seasoned Bandit” was assigned based on the suspect’s apparSUBMITTeD PHoTo ent age and grey-white hair.

Anyone with information about the Seasoned Bandit should contact the law enforcement agencies investigating this case or dial 911. The FBI can be reached 24 hours a day at (310) 477-6565.

Does 92-year-old Charles LoBue plan on retiring from his 35-hour-a-week volunteer commitments any time soon? “No way,” he said. The hard-working community servant just received an award honoring him for 20 years as a volunteer for the Foodbank Santa Barbara County’s Brown Bag program, which supplies free groceries to seniors in need twice a month. But that’s the tip of the iceberg for LoBue. He also gives his time, energy and financial support to a variety of other local causes. He serves on several committees for the Carpinteria Arts Center, whose campaign to create a new home for the arts has reaped the benefit of LoBue’s giving. The main gallery will be named after LoBue. After graduating from Rutgers UniBoyD versity, LoBue went on to a successful Charles LoBue takes a quick career as the Director of International Hubreak from his Foodbank duties man Resources for RCA. Retiring allowed to be honored for his 20 years of him the opportunity to shift into his real volunteering. passion, giving back to the community.

As a 32-year resident of Carpinteria, he has applied himself tirelessly to giving back. In addition to the Foodbank and the arts center, he volunteers for Catholic Charities and the Masons. His long list of honors include the President Obama Award for Volunteerism. He will be 93 in November but plans to continue his fulltime charitable career indefinitely.

Tebbin welcomes 104 with Community Church friends

The Carpinteria Community Church congregation welcomed back long time member Hannah Tebbin to celebrate her 104th birthday on Sept. 3.

The deacons of the church arranged transportation to bring Tebbin from her assisted living home in Goleta for Sunday worship and her birthday celebration.

Tebbin served as an independent Christian missionary in central Mexico for more than 30 years. Upon retirement from her mission work she attended Carpinteria Community Church for decades prior to her move to Goleta. She enjoys living near the Santa Barbara Airport and watching the airplanes overhead.

Homeless clean up in Carpinteria

Being homeless means vulnerability, cold nights, hunger and discomfort––all of which widen the divide between those with a roof over their heads and those without. That divide is about to narrow a little for Carpinteria’s homeless. On Wednesday, Sept. 13, a trailer with two full bathrooms arrived behind City Hall and anyone who wanted a hot, 10-minute shower was invited in. Showers of Blessing will bring its portable showers to town once a week for the next three months in a $3,700 trial run that could be extended to a year.

Ken Ralph, general manager of Showers of Blessing, said that at the three sites where Showers of Blessing now operates, he observes the homeless “clients” go from pre-shower surly to post-shower upbeat. “Their attitude shifts,” he said.

The trailer has two complete bathrooms stocked with fresh towels, washcloths, razors, soaps, shampoo and conditioner.

Each client receives a new pair of socks and underwear. Clean, used clothing is available too.

The trailer serves dozens of clients at each site. “We stay until everyone’s done.

We really hate to turn people away,” said Ralph.

In Carpinteria, a concerted effort is underway to reduce homelessness. Central Coast Collaborative on Homelessness (C3H) connects a variety of groups aimed at decreasing homelessness. The city, local churches, nonprofits and concerned residents have all pitched in to build relationships and earn the trust of the chronic homeless in order to provide them with appropriate resources, like medications and counseling, and ultimately to place them in housing.

Nonetheless, Carpinteria’s homeless population seems to have increased in recent years. Studies point to the dearth of affordable housing as the main culprit for

The Showers of Blessing trailer rolled into Carpinteria this week to begin a three-month trial of weekly showers for the homeless.

California’s rising homeless issue. Drug addiction and mental illness exacerbate the problem.

Ralph emphasized that the showers are accessible to everyone. The point is not to force reform by placing conditions on the support. “We are all about unconditional love. If a person is on drugs or drinking, that’s not a reason not to take a shower,” he said.

Dave Moore, an active participant in efforts to end homelessness locally, said that although some people argue

that serving meals and offering showers simply reduces motivation to find homes, “really it’s to everyone’s advantage to tend to the homeless.” And Ralph said that resources like showers break down the walls between those with homes and those without, making those without feel more human and less ashamed.

In Showers of Blessing’s first year, 2014, the two-bathroom trailer provided 1,500 showers in Isla Vista. In its second year, it added Goleta and provided 3,500 showers.

This year, with a new site in Santa

Barbara, over 5,000 showers will be provided. Ralph said that the trailer could tend to eight sites at maximum capacity.

With every site added, the fixed costs are divided more ways and the cost per site decreases.

The City of Carpinteria will shoulder $2,250 of the three-month trial, and residents have stepped up to raise the additional $1,500 needed. If the trial is successful, the city will consider funding a portion of the $15,000 annual cost for the weekly showers.

Keep Carp Carp

Carpinterians need to wake up to how their city is operating. I recently attended a Carpinteria City Council meeting and spoke against the proposed hotel to be built at the public parking lot by the train station. I can see no upside for the citizens of Carpinteria. I was quite surprised that even with all the public opposition, the City Council voted to proceed with requesting a proposal for a developer to build and operate the project—Councilmember Al Clark being the voice of reason and voting no.

The public was quite clear that the impacts were too great and they did not want the project. This project has been pushed by Matt Roberts, the Parks and Recreation Director. This is clearly a conflict of interest on the part of the city.

The upside for the city is quite clear. If it was successful, the project could create a steady revenue stream to support the city staff, pensions and more pet projects.

What is being missed here is that we already have a great community. Adding a hotel and restaurant to the downtown is not going to make our town better. What makes Carpinteria such a great place are all the little simple pleasures that are available. This hotel is not on the list of great things in Carpinteria.

The parks department should stick to parks, not hotels and restaurants. Get the skate park done; our kids need it.

Peter Lapidus Carpinteria

Thank you, Mr. Clark

Mr. Al Clark, thank you for clarifying what most Carpinterians have been saying about the proposed inn at the railroad tracks (“Railroad inn railroaded in?” CVN, Sept. 7). We don’t want it; it is not what Carpinteria needs, and we have no interest in becoming like the rest of the Southern California beach towns, i.e. an expensive, unattractive, unfriendly, commercial tourist town full of hotels. It feels like the beginning of the end of our small town that we all love because of its small town charm, character and identity.

In addition to pointing out the majority view on the railroaded inn, Councilmember Clark’s proposed an alternative for generating revenue that I like. He stated that “the proposed revenues (from the hotel) come at too high a price.” He stated that a 1-cent sales tax would raise “many times more money than the hotel and would be partially paid by tourists.”

What a great solution!

That 1-cent sales tax is a very small price to pay for keeping Carpinteria, Carpinteria, our small beach town, with caring and friendly people. Let’s continue to be involved in the decision-making process, make our voices heard and hopefully the planning process and our representatives will recognize the majority perspective.

Culinary Crawl: Loved it!

We had the fortune to attend the first Culinary Crawl sponsored by the Carpinteria Valley Chamber of Commerce this past Friday. Two colleagues and I sampled cuisine from several restaurants,

bars, chocolaterias and bakeries we had not previously visited. We also enjoyed the live guitar music and art gallery exhibition at our final destination. I will definitely return soon to enjoy more of these fun places!

The idea of advertising the participating business establishments on white aprons was a stroke of genius. As we walked the streets going from site to site on our list, we were asked by at least five people what was the celebratory event. We had fun explaining the idea of a culinary crawl to people from Pasadena, France, Germany and other distant locales.

We were also so impressed with the graciousness and superlative knowledge shown by chamber representative Joyce Donaldson. She was thoroughly versed with Carpinteria facts, history, businesses and trends in the city. Joyce is an ideal goodwill ambassador for the city and its chamber of commerce.

Art Olguin Santa Barbara

Das is good

I want to thank Das Williams for the wonderful job he’s been doing representing Carpinteria. Somebody wrote a letter to the CVN editor saying that Das is not local. This isn’t true as I’ve known him to live in our area for many decades. I’ve always found Das to be hardworking, responsive, helpful and fair. It’s great having him and his family live here in Carpinteria.

Understanding DACA

President Obama wrote the executive order referred to as DACA. He did this as an executive order because congress could not get the job done. I am referring to all of congress, not just one party. It is not a money bill so it should take a simple majority to pass it. Democrats controlled the House, Senate and executive branches for seven years, and it did not happen.

The problem with DACA is that it is not a law. It confers no legal status to DACA kids. And it can be, and now has been, revoked with a stroke of a pen.

We now have another president that is telling Congress to work it out. President Trump needs a law he can sign, but the law has to be created by the House of Representatives and the Senate. They are our lawmaking bodies. That is their job.

DACA individuals were vetted when they applied for this status. Among other qualifying criteria, they came to the U.S. while under the age of 16, have continuously resided in the U.S. from June 15, 2007 to the present, and have not been convicted of a serious crime. There are 800,000 individuals who have already met this criteria, and who are still living in limbo.

Only our representatives in Congress can confer lawful permanent resident status—which is a legal status. DACA is an executive order, not a law. The Dream Act is the law Congress needs to pass for these individuals. So what should you do? You have three representatives in Congress: one member of the House and two Senators. Salud Carbajal is your representative and Kamala Harris and Diane Feinstein are your Senators. They all have websites and email addresses.

Contact them and let’s get this done.

Viewpoint Patriotism lives and breathes in CHS athletics

By Pat CoonEy, CaRPintERia HiGH SCHooL DiRECtoR of atHLEtiCS

All over the world, education-based athletics programs are loaded with teachable moments. Within the U.S., the National Federation of High School Sports has the goal of guiding state organizations like the California Interscholastic Federation toward age appropriate teachable moments. The mission is shared by Carpinteria High School athletics where instilling patriotism has been one of the important learning outcomes of its programs since the school’s inception in 1913.

The efforts to instill patriotic values are pervasive within the academic and athletic curriculum at CHS. The U.S. flag is proudly displayed according to proper etiquette at events at the pool, gym, softball and baseball diamonds and at Carpinteria Valley Memorial Stadium.

“The Star Spangled Banner” is played beautifully and honorably by the Warrior Band in patriotic observance prior to CIF playoff contests throughout the year. For nearly two decades, Warrior faithful and visitors to Carpinteria Valley Memorial Stadium have walked up the promenade and passed a bronze memorial to the 20 fallen Warriors that lost their lives in the line of duty.

The Warrior tradition of observing a moment of silence prior to each football contest pays tribute to active military, veterans and men and women that sacrificed their lives in uniform. To quote the pregame public address announcement that has been read before football games since 1949, “We give respect in our silence, and give honor in good sportsmanship.” Teachable moments in patriotism are alive and well within the

To quote the pregame public address announcement that has been read before football games since 1949, “We give respect in our silence, and give honor in good sportsmanship.” education-based athletic programs at Carpinteria High School.

This year, the Warrior football team, band and cheer squad will carry the U.S. flag with them as they parade up Warrior Walk, enter the stadium, and take to the gridiron. One deserving student will earn the honor of bearing the flag, and he or she will do so according to flag code as they form the Warrior “C” at the 50-yard line for the CHS Marching Band’s rendition of the National Anthem. To complete this new pregame ceremony, the flag will be properly stored until it can be correctly unveiled by the next Carpinteria High School Warrior earning the honor and responsibility of bearing the national colors. Fantastic teachable moment!

The 2017 Warriors invite active military, veterans and direct family members of the fallen to be honored guests at the next home football game, Oct. 6, versus Santa Paula. Additionally, the Warriors challenge the entire community to join in supporting the education of the current student athletes at Carpinteria High School. Attend in a show of patriotism and experience their trials and tribulations at the pool, in the gym, on the courts, on the diamond, on the course, and in the stadium as the Warriors continue on the path to becoming productive and positive citizens.

Warrior Pride is rich with efforts to pay respect to those that came before and those that established traditions of excellence in academics and athletics at Carpinteria High School. The Warrior spirit that never dies includes patriotism!

Carpinteria Children’s Project: A collection of hope-aholics CVN

I am a hope-aholic. With a tip of the hat to Gloria Steinem for that descriptor, I nearly always see the glass as half-full, the goal as achievable. With the Carpinteria Children’s Project (CCP), I am surrounded by fellow hope-aholics, people who naturally look for the strengths in children and families and want to support them as they take positive steps in their journeys. Our staff and volunteers inspire me because they eat, sleep and breathe teamwork. It’s all about what we can do together. Over the next few months, I’m going to share a bit about what we do at CCP. What really happens over there at the old Main School on 8th Street between Palm and Walnut? Well, it’s now called the Carpinteria Children’s Project and meaningful, inspiring teamwork that strengthens children, families and our community happens every day. We want to spread the word about this treasure in our community and invite you in!

The CCP is best known for our delightful early childhood education classrooms and early elementary afterschool programs. Many know that we are the hub for a number of non-profit and government partners that serve families on our campus. Our Family Resource Center, the focus of today’s column, operates that hub and serves families in our classrooms and those throughout Carpinteria who are not in our classrooms.

Family Liaisons lead our Family Resource Center, which is housed in Bungalow 310 by the parking lot. They enable parents to identify their strengths and areas for growth and to reach out to other providers who can help on their family journey. Importantly, Family Liaisons support this process so that parents are not overwhelmed—but instead empowered—to make a positive difference in their own lives and the lives of their children. They take a clear-eyed look at the needs of families and think to themselves “What team will best support this family? Which service agencies could best contribute to this family’s growth?” Family Liaisons are experts in local resources around medical and dental insurance, nutrition support, family counseling and child development, and they do the research when new needs arise. We help families access healthcare. We provide or help families access child and family counseling.

What really happens over there at the old Main School on 8th Street between Palm and Walnut? Well, it’s now called the Carpinteria Children’s Project and meaningful, inspiring teamwork that strengthens children, families and our community happens every day.

We provide or coordinate adult education through a variety of parenting classes, offered either in English or Spanish. And we have classes to help you learn English or Spanish, too, as well as support groups. We received a grant for something special this year—on nine Tuesday nights starting next week, we will provide a family dinner at 5 p.m. and free childcare from 6 to 7:30 p.m. while parents take their choice of one of four class series. The choices for parent classes are Nurturing Parent in English, Nurturing Parent in Spanish, and Family Literature & Parent Café in English or Spanish. You can register for a class series at carpchildren. org/class-registration_registro-de-clase/ or by calling 566-1621.

In addition to coordinating services for individual families and providing parenting and other classes, our Family Resource Center hope-aholics also contribute to efforts to ensure our community supports all families so they all can flourish. We are connected with other Family Resource Centers throughout Santa Barbara County and more tangentially with those across California and the nation.

Next month, I’ll share more about how that network feeds our work for families locally. In the meantime, feel free to stop by and meet Angelica, Maria, Maria and Chris in the Family Resource Center at the Carpinteria Children’s Project. They do it all with hope, all with an eye for celebrating how families use their strengths to do their best for their children.

Maria Fisk, PhD is an educator and leader who believes in the power of communities to change lives. She is the Executive Director of the Carpinteria Children’s Project (CCP).

CCP provides early childhood education, family support services, and leadership of the Thrive Carpinteria Partner Network of early education and social service providers. Learn more at CarpChildren.org. Maria can be reached at mfisk@carpchildren.org or 566-1600.

“The Big Sick”

Kumail (Kumail Nanjiani) is a Pakistani comedian. You wouldn’t know that he is Pakistani except for the fact that he typically brings it up within 20 second of meeting someone, and it is what his whole comedy routine is about, what his (separate) one-man show is about and what most of this movie is about.

But Kumail’s nationality is not just relevant because it is a centerpiece of the movie; it is also relevant because it bears directly on his options in life, and indeed, in this story. For example, it is understood that Kumail will pray five times a day (like a good Muslim). It is also understood—really, really deeply understood—that Kumail will marry a Pakistani woman, perhaps even of his parents’ choosing.

Sure, Kumail could do otherwise— free country and all that. But then he’d have to deal with annoying little detail of being completely ousted, ostracized, shunned and abandoned by his whole family.

So, when Kumail falls for Emily (Zoe Kazan)—a white girl he meets at a bar—an “uh oh” is lurking. At first it was just a one-night stand, so no big deal as far as his none-the-wiser family goes. But as Kumail and Emily “accidentally” bump into each other with increasing frequency (each promised to be uninterested in a serious relationship … oops), the looming threat of their dueling backgrounds inches its way to the fore.

And yet Emily and Kumail are so adorable. They are both sort of dorky, have a similar witty, sarcastic sense of humor, don’t abide a lot of nonsense, and have just the right number of quirks to make them human yet not annoying.

But Kumail still hasn’t told his family. Emily does not like this.

Kumail does not like that Emily does not like this.

Emily really does not like that Kumail does not like that she does not like this. Kumail really does not understand. Uh oh.

Now, despite the unconventional-seeming relationship, and despite it being urged upon us that “This Is An Unconventional Relationship!” the story up to this point is pretty conventional.

When it really comes down to it, the Pakistanibackground aspect of the story is pretty superficial. We don’t

get any deep insights into Pakistani culture, or into how it fundamentally shapes Kumail’s life or relationships.

We mostly just hear about arranged marriages, naan, Islam and a few other bits of trivia. So the movie just feels like a conventional “two worlds collide” type story that happens to be of the Pakistani variety.

But then the movie takes a turn for the unconventional. And a dark turn at that. Emily gets sick. Really sick. And a (now estranged) Kumail wants to be there. But he has to deal with Emily’s understandably defensive parents. And then of course there are his own parents in the mix. Ugh. As Emily’s dad (Ray Romano) says, “Love isn’t easy.” No joke, Dad. By the end, the story veers back toward conventional. But not necessarily in a bad way—the execution is solid.

Plus, I guess it turns out to be a true(ish) story. I suppose there is only so much that creative license can license.

Still, this movie is at its best when it is on the edgier side. There are some nice, complex moments littered throughout.

For example, whilst having a man-toman, heart-to-heart one night, Emily’s dad tells Kumail that you don’t really know who your true love is until you’ve cheated on him/her. Sounds like an awful thing to say, especially to your daughter’s boyfriend. But maybe there’s a point in there (not about cheating, but about hurt and loss more generally).

Morals aside, “The Big Sick” is distinctively pleasant. The story is interesting, and the characters are infectious. Kumail is understated and funny (though his stand-up is wanting, in my opinion). Emily is kooky in the best sort of way. And Emily’s parents add some flavor, too.

“The Big Sick” does feel a bit like a big studio movie dressed up like an indy movie. But who cares? It’s easy to watch.

“The Big Sick” is rated R for language including some sexual references.

Matt Duncan, a former Coastal View News Editor, has taken physical but not emotional leave from Carpinteria to be a philosophy professor at Rhode Island College.

Crime rises in Carpinteria, recent arrests could help

By Lea Boyd

Beverly Lombardi enjoys a summer day with her children, Bridget, Jimmy and Lisa, in the late 1960s.

To Mom, with love CVN

THE TIMES THAT BIND L I S A O ’ R E I L LY I was 4 years old, sitting at the round dining room table with my mother playing Old Maid, when the phone rang in the kitchen. Mom went to answer and when she returned her face radiated that smile.

“You get to start kindergarten tomorrow!”

The smile should have been enough to reassure me that was a good thing, but the flash of uncertainty I felt must have shown on my face. I remembered not wanting to give up this time I had with her, just me and her alone for an hour or two while Dad was at work, big brother was at school and little sister napped.

She reminded me I was ready—I could write my name and knew my numbers and the alphabet—and the next day we walked the few blocks to school together.

In recent years, she would tell me, “I held your hand while we walked to school, but as soon as we got to the kindergarten yard and you saw all the other kids, you dropped my hand and ran inside without looking back.”

This was in the mid-1960s, in our North Hollywood years. Little square houses lined up neatly on both sides of our long block, every front yard with nicely manicured lawns and big trees, no fences or walls preventing our play from drifting onto our neighbor’s property. On late summer evenings, Dad would whistle when it was time for us go inside, but even then we’d continue our boisterous ways. But I remember one thing always stopped me short, no matter what I was doing. Our daytime mother transformed into an evening creature of glamour, capri pants exchanged for a dazzling cocktail dress, flats for spiked heels, hair teased high, and a drift of perfume intoxicating us all to silence. How could this be the same person who an hour before was so disagreeable about me eating my peas? I think she knew she had us in the palm of her hand on those nights, as she bent to kiss our cheeks and told us to mind the sitter, and left with our dad out the front door with a laugh.

That laugh. My siblings and I would be in the living room watching television, our parents’ voices drifting to us from the kitchen while Mom made dinner, when her laughter would carry to us and I couldn’t help it. I always had to know what she was laughing about,

Beverly Lombardi and her husband, Jim, take a night out in the mid to late 1960s. so I’d jump up and run into the kitchen with a “what’s so funny?” Almost always her answer was the same, perhaps her way of getting a little bit even with her children for our use of the word. She’d sing out, “Noth-iiiinnnnggggg,” again with that smile, and she and dad would laugh again.

I am a personal historian. My goal in writing this column is to inspire you all to share and record the stories of your family. I’ve written about gathering stories from your grandparents, and about your great-grandparents, but today I encourage you to focus on your parents.

For the last two years, between other jobs, I have been working with my dad on a book about his life. That project is now in it’s final stages, and when it was finished, Mom’s was next. But that will now be a book pieced together from family and friends of what we already know, as she was suddenly, senselessly, unfathomably, taken from us much too soon. There is not always time.

Now, only weeks into learning how to continue in this world without her, I wonder at the courage of my 4-year-old self on that first day of kindergarten. I wonder because the only thing I’m certain of 51 years later, is that I am not in any way ready to let go of her hand.

Lisa Lombardi O’Reilly has lived in Carpinteria since 1997 and is a Personal and Family Historian specializing in making heirloom books out of life stories. She is a member of the Association of Personal Historians, the National Genealogical Society and the Association for Professional Genealogists.

Crime in Carpinteria shot up this year, with a 35-percent increase over 2016 in “part-one” crimes like burglary, robbery and assault. A rash of commercial burglaries contributed to that spike. In 2016, the city experienced eight, but as of early September, already 16 commercial breakins have occurred in 2017.

In the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Department’s annual report to the Carpinteria City Council at its Sept. 11 meeting, Lieutenant Mike Perkins said that the arrest of a Long Beach-based burglary crew in early August could reduce the high rate of commercial burglaries that Carpinteria experienced over the first half of 2017.

Four suspects were arrested after breaking into Padaro Beach Grill, then Taco Grande in Casitas Plaza. Intending to flee southbound on Highway 101, they were confused by Caltrans road closures and wound up back on Santa Claus Lane where deputies investigating the Beach Grill break-in identified them and their vehicle as it sped by. The four young men, including two minors, were ultimately apprehended later in Ventura.

Perkins noted that of the 84 commercial burglaries documented in Carpinteria in the last decade, only 14 had alarm systems, 28 had video surveillance and seven had both. Thieves are less likely to target businesses that clearly indicate that they’ve taken those types of preventative measures.

“Part-two” crimes, which include driving under the influence and drug

offenses, have also risen this year, up 13 percent over 2016. Traffic collisions have dropped 13 percent and calls for service are up 9 percent.

The Sheriff’s Department contract will cost the city nearly $4 million this year.

It covers 14.9 full-time staff positions including a portion of a commander and lieutenant, two sergeants, two senior deputies, eight deputies, one detective, one community resource detective and a portion of an office support position.

Asked why crime has risen, Perkins said that most people attribute crime rises here and elsewhere to changes to the prison system that have resulted in criminals spending less time incarcerated for higher level crimes. Once allowed back out into community, many return to criminal activity.

avofest permitted for 31st year

The City Council voted to permit the California Avocado Festival for its 31st year in downtown Carpinteria. The festival, which is one of largest free festivals in the state and one of few that operate in a town center, will open on Friday, Oct. 6 and close on the evening of Sunday, Oct. 8. As usual, its footprint will stretch along Linden Avenue from 6th Street to Carpinteria Avenue. The festival’s cost to the city will be about $5,000 in law enforcement and $15,500 in public works in-kind staff time for street closures and support.

Abstract thinking at the Arts Center

The show “Thinking Abstractly,” juried by Connie Connally, opened Aug. 31 and will be celebrated with an artists’ reception on Saturday, Sept. 16, from 4 to 6 p.m. at the Carpinteria Arts Center, 855 Linden Ave., with music provided by Rick Reeves.

Always on a theme, the Carpinteria Art Center shows begin with an Ingathering of submissions, which are then evaluated by a juror or (jurors) and selections are made.

With work in permanent museum collections, as well as at galleries across the country, the “Thinking Abstractly” juror is a professional abstract expressionist.

“The abstract works submitted for ‘Thinking Abstractly’ were exceptional,” Connally shared. “I understand that entries came from many surrounding counties and as far away as Los Angeles. That speaks to the reputation this exhibition has garnered; artists want to be associated with the Carpinteria Arts Center.” Connally added, “The variety of works for ‘Thinking Abstractly’ was impressive, from printmaking, textiles, sculpture, ceramics, photography and, of course, painting. Artists selected represent all those mediums and they should all be proud to be included; they are in good company.”

Additionally, Connally will be giving an art talk titled: “Landscape to Abstract: How Does It Happen?” on Sunday, Oct. 1, from 1 to 3 p.m. at the Carpinteria Arts Center. Afterward, there will be ample time for a question and answer period.

Carpinteria Valley MuseuM of History

The Carpinteria of 1924 is a place of protective dunes and coastal wetlands—habitats that buffered the little town from storm surge and high tides.

N PE

over the last few weeks, nature has thrown everything it can at the Gulf of Mexico, Baja and Caribbean island nations. tropical storms, hurricanes and earthquakes, each with a list of side effects that sound terrifying in both the immediate and long-term future. While others have been dealing with catastrophic events that make news, a microburst dropped down on santa Barbara’s tourist-laden beaches sunday of labor Day weekend, and just a week later we were treated to a show of thunder and lightning that some of us enjoyed while other hid under the bed. i love a good thunderstorm, but we live in an area where they are practically unheard of, and with recent fire activity, flooding rains can be devastating.

But while we have been thinking about mudslides, weather extremes can also bring intense storm surges that give us a prelude to what rising seas might look like in coastal communities. prior to humans becoming permanent residents of any place, many coastal environments had sand dunes and coastal

O

this means that communities like ours should be mindful of the resources we have that protect our community. Which brings me back to dunes, coastal estuaries and bluffs. on a stormy day with high tides and high surf, if you stand facing the ocean and the mouth of Carpinteria Creek at the state park, you can see on a small scale how an estuary functions. as the ocean rushes into the creek mouth, plants and water flowing from the creek dissipate energy, so that the ocean doesn’t flow upstream. over the course of hundreds of years, countries all over the world have settled in coastal regions and tried to tame the sea with modern engineering. one thing we have learned through trial and error is that the best way to protect

anything is to first look to nature to see how it is done. sea level rise may be happening slowly, but it could increase in the coming years and protecting our coastal dunes and estuaries is an important step to keeping our coastal towns safe now and into the future.

wetlands that dissipated energy from storms and protected inland areas. if you have lived in Carpinteria for a while, you probably remember when the Carpinteria salt Marsh park was restored to wetland habitat. Coastal wetlands are multibenefit. They provide rich, diverse habitat to many species of flora and fauna, act as a nursery to many species of aquatic life, not to mention the visual pleasure they offer us. and they also act as buffers to rising seas, extreme weather and high tides.

Carpinteria is lucky to have sand dunes, coastal cliffs and coastal wetlands that protect us from high tides, but sea level rise poses a different problem.

Contrary to what many people think, all oceans on the planet are not rising at the same rate. and like climate change, there is no debate among scientists that the seas are rising. it will not happen overnight, or even over a month or year. sea level rise is a slow creep, quietly eating away the sand while we are sleeping until suddenly it is in your backyard and you didn’t hear it knock. the debate on sea level rise is about the current rate. is it happening more quickly than in the past? i like to let people do their own research and draw their own conclusions about that. average sea level rise around the globe has been approximately 1.9 millimeters a year over the last 100 years. again, this does not mean each year here along the California coast we have seen that increase, it is an average from all over the planet. What we do know is that the seas are forever changing, and historical data shows that they are slowly rising.

There’s no such thing as free lunch CUSD looks to overhaul food program

By Lea Boyd Last spring, in a classic cart-beforehorse move, Carpinteria Unified School District announced that cafeteria lunches would be free for all at the beginning of the 2017-2018 school year. Unfortunately, that’s not the case.

The district, which serves 1,250 lunches and 700 breakfasts daily in its cafeterias, needed to have 80 percent of its families eligible for a federal free lunch program to financially justify free lunches districtwide. As it was, only about 68 percent of the students qualified, and offering free lunches would have cost the district about $200,000—at a time when the budget belt has been cinched as tightly as possible.

Maureen Fitzgerald, chief business officer at CUSD, said that the free lunch announcement was premature and not vetted properly before going public. “It was kind of a train wreck,” she said. Last year, the district saw a superintendent released two days before school started, and two interim leaders fill the gap before new Superintendent Diana Rigby came on board for this school year. Last year’s child nutrition and wellness coordinator, new to the position, has since left the district.

Fitzgerald said that the entire food program will undergo an overhaul this year. Janet Velarde Loubet was recently hired as the new child nutrition and wellness coordinator. In her last position, she directed food service for Solvang Elementary School, and before that worked in the Carpinteria High School cafeteria and then as lead chef for the Orfalea Foundation’s School Food Initiative.

Food service at schools should be revenue neutral, which is a balancing act considering that ingredient ordering can take place months in advance and no one knows exactly how many kids will buy lunch each day. “Lunch service is a service, not a money maker,” said Velarde Loubet. The district’s service, however, has operated in the red for years.

“We’re working now to find out where the bleeding is,” said Fitzgerald of the food program. The district gets reimbursed by the federal government for students who apply and qualify for the free lunch program. Low income families are eligible. For example, a family of four must make less than $31,980 to qualify for free lunch, or $45,510 for reducedprice lunch.

BOyD

Kindergartners from Angela White’s and Andrea Edmondson’s classes munch on chicken burgers at Canalino School.

To reduce costs, Fitzgerald and Velarde Loubet are analyzing all the expenses.

The cost of lunch isn’t expected to go up, but the cost of those lunches to the district must go down. All options are being considered, said Velarde Loubet, including creative cost-cutting like piggybacking on orders from larger districts to secure better prices.

Of course, cost cutting typically means tradeoffs. “The feds don’t pay enough money to buy all organic and scratch cooking,” Fitzgerald pointed out. She said that the effort to keep cuts out of the classroom has forced the district into tough choices. No one wants to continue using Styrofoam trays, she said, but recyclable materials are costly.

Improvements to the program are already in place. Schools now have salad bars, and Aliso School has a breakfast program that may expand throughout the district.

Fitzgerald, whose job is to understand the numbers, said that CUSD will probably never reach the fully free-lunch threshold, but could possibly bring

down the reduced-priced meals to the free point. It’s imperative, she and Velarde Loubet said, that families fill out

the application forms. Even if they don’t qualify, the information is important for the district to have on file.

The swan sings for Angels Antiques

By Peter Dugré

Last Sunday afternoon, Wayne Babcock held court at his bustling Angels Antiques on Carpinteria Avenue greeting his mostly repeat customers and gently haggling over prices in the cluttered curiosity of his pickers’ paradise. Babcock has spent 30 years collecting antiques, or as he might say “junk,” and it shows in the volume and variety spilling out from Angels—the Victorian home where he also lives among the wares, decorations, furnishings, surfboards, old Hawaiian and nautical kitsch, and miscellany that he has diligently hunted over the decades. You get the sense that Babcock has trouble letting some of his treasures go, a fondness that will soon be stressed as he liquidates everything in preparation for closing the store and selling the landmark property.

“It’s time. It has been 30 years, a good round number. I’m using a sledgehammer to make it happen. I love this shop, but I’ve come to realize that unless I close, I’ll never get anything done,” Babcock said. “I can’t be caretaker for all this stuff anymore.”

What he wants to get done next will still allow him to pursue his passion for picking, but he’s narrowing the focus to surfboards. He owns hundreds of surfboards in every shape and size, a collection that represents a comprehensive history of the sport and its evolution. The boards tell stories of the places and people who rode them, so Babcock will be using his time in the future putting together his definitive exhibit on surfing.

“The surfboard collection got so big and so important that it became kind of a responsibility,” Babcock said. “I’m the holder of history through the boards.”

Zelda Prune, Babcock’s girlfriend and coworker for the past nine years, marvels at the stories of uncovering what seems like an endless number of boards. Babcock had been storing many under the house and pulled them out last winter to prepare the 120-year-old home ahead of anticipated rains.

“He said there were like 30 to 40 under

Babcock house goes way back

For most of its 120-plus years, the Babcock house was known as the Rockwell house. John and Isabel Rockwell purchased the property, along with land on either side, in 1893. With the help of Isabel’s father, the couple built a small clapboard house and began raising a family. As more children arrived—16 in all—rooms were added to the house.

Tragically, John, a mailman, died in 1914 while delivering mail in the floodwaters of a massive rainstorm.

Isabel was forced to sell off most of the property she owned to feed her family, but she held onto the house at 4846 Carpinteria Ave. Eventually, she married a younger man named Coy Rhodes and lived with him in the home until her death in 1951. The Rockwells sold the house a few years later to the Husted family, then to the Babcock family, who converted it into Angels Antiques.

DugRé

Wayne Babcock and Zelda Prune have hundreds, nay thousands, of items to clear out off the Angels Antiques property. readers, go make a deal. there. Then they just kept pulling them out and there were around 200,” Prune said. She pointed out that as they’ve been preparing for the massive sell off—everything is discounted—they’re uncovering more items that have been hidden under the layers of antiques that continuously come and go over the years.

Babcock raised three children at Angels and hustled over the years. When he and

Prune got together, it was a sea change for the business. “There’s definitely the preZ and post-Z era (for Angel’s),” he said.

Babcock had never planned to be an antique dealer or surfboard collector. He had been a gemologist but was laid off in 1986. His mother, Mary Fay Babcock, had purchased the Carpinteria Avenue Victorian and started Angel’s Antiques, so she asked if he’d come help her out.

In Wayne Babcock’s early years at Angels, the shop was decorated every New Year with baby dolls who frolicked around the front of the old house.

Babcock, a lifelong surfer, was reeled in by the promise of being so close to Rincon Point.

“I told her, ‘I’ll give you two winters,’” Babcock said. Instead, he ended up purchasing the property and business from his mom and two winters became 30.

Babcock had a knack for the business and soon became zealous in his scouring of estate sales and bringing his everexpanding inventory to the monthly Rose Bowl flea market in addition to packing Angels to capacity. At the Rose Bowl, he became known as the surfboard guy from Carpinteria, because other dealers knew they’d have a buyer in Babcock if they came across antique boards in their picking.

Collecting is part of Babcock’s constitution. Even though Angels is liquidating, he’s still on the hunt, keeping an eye on estate sale listings and showing up early if he thinks a sale has promise.

“Part of it is the endless quest to find the one thing worth $200,000 or even $20,000,” Babcock said. Asked if he’s found anything like that, he said, “I don’t kiss and tell.”

As much as the things, Babcock said the people he meets through the business will be hard to say goodbye to. There are the regulars like the 90-year-old woman customer who helped to inspire Babcock by telling him, “Just go for it!” about his surfboard exhibit dreams. There’s the stream of eccentrics, pickers and fellow dealers who regularly visit to comb the collection at Angel’s. And there are the occasional celebrities, like Drew Barrymore, who wandered in and delighted at the some nautical antiques, saying, “I want this. All of this. Hi, I’m Drew.”

Also, it’s the connection to the people who love what Angels is offering that gives Babcock conflicting emotions about the big decision to shut it down. “I’m the bad guy, because it’s the end of an institution. People come in, and I tell them we’re closing and they get really sad,” Babcock said.

Warriors notch first victory of season, Morro Bay falls 27-10

BY ALONZO OROZCO

Following a very tough home opener, resulting in a 63-0 loss to Santa Ynez last week, the Carpinteria High School football team returned to Carpinteria Valley Memorial Stadium to host Morro Bay last Friday night, Sept. 8. In a stunning turn of events, the Warriors, behind a stellar defensive effort, walked away with a 27-10 victory to even their record to 1-1. “We had a great week of practice,” said Carpinteria coach Rick Candaele.

“I thought we would play better; it was still a mystery how much better.” It’s the best start for the Warriors since the 2014 season when they also started 1-1.

Neither squad managed to get on the scoreboard in the first quarter, as Pirates kicker Pedro Morales’ field goal attempt sailed wide left to keep the game scoreless with 7:24 remaining in the opening quarter. Morales got another shot in the second quarter, but Vincent Gonzalez blocked the attempt and the game remained 0-0.

Following a Morro Bay first down at their own 30, Carpinteria’s defense clamped down to force a fourth down.

The Warriors then received a huge break when a bad snap on the punt attempt gave them the ball at the Pirate 2-yard line. Running back Leo Vargas punched it in from there for Carpinteria’s first touchdown of the season, a two-yard run with 6:27 left in the second quarter.

The Warrior defense would force a three-and-out, giving their offense good field position on the Pirate 48. Quarterback Vance Keiser found Terrell Richardson over the middle for a 26-yard pass play to put Carpinteria deep into Morro Bay territory. They finished the drive with Keiser lobbing a 10-yard touchdown pass once again to Richardson to put the Warriors up 14-0. The Pirates then came back behind the strong arm of quarterback Aidan Moriarity and the power running and acrobatic receiving of Myles Minnis. Minnis put the Pirates on the scoreboard with a 1-yard run just 22 seconds before halftime to make the score 14-7 at the break.

Morro Bay took the opening drive of the second half to the Carpinteria 3-yard line. Luke Callaway’s sack kept the Pirates out of the end zone, and the visitors would have to settle for Morales’ 31-yard field goal to cut the lead to 14-10 with 7:09 left in the third quarter. Coming up with an interception, they got the

The Warriors responded quickly, running the ball downhill at Morro Bay. Keiser found a big hole off the left side and scampered 64 yards for a touchdown to give his team a little breathing room at 21-10. They carried the lead into the fourth quarter, and Gonzalez’s 67-yard return of an interception for a touchdown sealed the deal. With 2:25 left in the game, the Warriors had clinched their 27-10 victory.

Vargas would finish the game rushing for 97 yards on 16 carries with one touchdown. Keiser completed seven of 20 passes for 72 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions; and Richardson hauled in four receptions for 61 yards and a score.

Carpinteria travels to play Nordhoff on Friday, Sept.15, with the kickoff at 7 p.m.

The Warriors’ numberthree team of Amy Perez/Karla Marin lost their first three games in the first round, but came back to win 6-3 and the subsequent set, 6-0. Perez then paired with Diana Gonzalez to complete the sweep, winning the last set, 6-0, also. Lexi Persoon and Jeannette Carrillo continued their winning ways, dropping a total of just three games on the day. In singles, Josie Gordon completed a sweep, as did doubles tenants Vicky Delk/Hali Schwasnick. Sydney Endow and Jessica Lord each won two sets as well.

September 7 - The Carpinteria High School girls tennis team beat Oxnard in a nonleague match, 15-3. “In singles, Josie Gordon did not start slow, she was solid from the start, and by the end of the third round was playing some of her best tennis all year,” said Warriors coach Charles Bryant. Sydney Endow and Jessica Lord each won two sets but lost to the Yellow Jackets number-one player. In doubles, Hali Schwasnick/ Diana Gonzalez swept, as did Amy Perez/Karla Marin. Jeannette Carrillo/Lexi Persoon won both of their sets together, dropping just two games.

Jr. Warriors of the Week

Carpinteria Junior Warriors is a recreational tackle football league serving boys and girls in Carpinteria from ages 6 to 14 years.

Schedule: Saturday, Sept. 16 Mighty Mights at Ventura High at 12:30 p.m.

Bantams at Vasquez High at 4 p.m.

Sophomores at Ventura High at 4:30 p.m.

Juniors at Vasquez High at 6 p.m.

Seniors at Ventura High at 6:30 p.m. *Home Games played at Carpinteria Valley Memorial Stadium

Mighty Might: Deven Garces, #24, is a secondyear player. He scored two touchdowns in Saturday’s victory and is a natural leader on the field. Garces always looks out for his teammates and gives it his all. Mighty Mights won 36-6 last weekend.

Bantam: Chris “Chango” Jaimes, #2, is a second-year player and was player of game Saturday against the Bulldogs. Jaimes did an outstanding job in a one-sided loss. He was a perfect example of Warrior Spirit Never Dies. He had at least six tackles and three solo tackles and never gave up when things got rough.

Bantams were defeated 0-34 last weekend.

Junior: Jacob Dominguez, #25, is a second-year player. Last Saturday he was named “the finisher” by his coaches as he was in on several hard-hitting open field tackles. He also plays running back and had several positive runs for his team. Dominguez is the captain of the defense, relaying the defensive signals to his team as the inside linebacker. Juniors were defeated 0-28 last weekend.

Senior: Gabrielle “Gibby” Castillo #46, is a returning player and plays fullback and linebacker.

Gibby stepped up big as a team leader throughout the week and continued throughout the game.

Castillo carried the ball well with huge carries for first downs, as well as a hard fought defensive performance that included an interception and deflection. Seniors were defeated 0-22 last weekend.

September 8 - The Carpinteria High School girls tennis team lost a non-league match to Division II Orcutt Academy, 12-6. In doubles, Amy Perez/Karla Marin won two of their three sets, while Hali Schwasnick/Diana Gonzalez and Jeannette Carrillo/Vicky Delk won a set each. “In singles, Josie Gordon won a set and competed well against Orcutt’s number one player in a set that could have gone either way,” said Warrior coach Charles Bryant. Carpinteria’s last point came from Jessica Lord, who won in her last set. “Overall, I was happy as we have had a few one-sided wins lately, and we needed to play a tougher, more experienced team and that is what we got today,” explained Bryant.

September 11 - The Carpinteria High School girls tennis team beat St. Bonaventure in a non-league match, 11-7. “In doubles, the team of the day had to be Jeannette Carrillo/Lexi Persoon as they won their first two sets fairly easily but faced the Seraphs Number-one team in the third round … this was a back and forth battle … until the very end when our girls broke the St. Bonaventure team to pull out a 7-5 win,” said Warrior coach Charles Bryant. Vicky Delk/Diana Gonzalez and Amy Perez/Karla Marin won two sets each with their only losses coming against the Seraphs numberone team. In singles, Josie Gordon swept her sets for the second straight match. Jessica Lord captured the last win of the day coming back from being down four games to five to take the last three games and win 7-5.

September 12 - The Carpinteria High School girls tennis team beat Dunn in a nonleague match, 17-1. Diana Gonzalez paired up with Hali Schwasnick for one win, and then teamed up with Jessica Santillan for the final two set wins. Vicky Delk/ Karla Marin also swept, and Lexi Persoon/Jeannette Carrillo won two sets. Then Persoon paired with Leigh Pluma to take the third set. In singles, Jessica Lord again was down four games to five and again came back and won the match. “Sydney Endow also won both her sets and Vivi Torres split her two sets, but played well in a 7-5 win against the Dunn number-two,” said Warriors coach Charles Bryant. Carpinteria is now 5-2 overall.

Sophomore: Ashton “Z” Zimmerman, #33, a returning player did a great job in Saturday’s game and played a huge role in making big plays. Zimmerman is not afraid to hit and is where he needs to be every time. Sophomores were defeated 0-36.

Girls golf

September 7 - The Carpinteria High School girls golf team hosted Bishop Diego at the Santa Barbara Municipal Golf Course, and came away with a 284 to 296 win.

Seniors Mikayla and Amanda Blair each shot 54s. Sophomore Ariana Argueta-Vega shot a personal best of 60 in the 12-stroke victory over rival Bishop Diego. “Whether it’s a drive or a one-foot putt, every shot is important,” explained Warrior coach Reina Rogers. Lucy Light also shot a 57 for Carpinteria. Bishop Diego was missing two players due to illness, forcing the Cardinals to take two double-pars as part of their team score to start off the match.

September 12 – The Carpinteria High School girls golf team hosted Santa Paula in a match at the Santa Barbara Municipal Golf Club where the Warriors out-stroked the Cardinals by a score of 263 to 340. The low score for the match came from senior Iliana Esquivel, who shot a 42 to beat her personal best of 49. Esquivel’s round included a birdie and three pars. Senior Amanda Blair tallied a 45, which included three birdies.

“Most improved is sophomore Ariana Argueta-Vega, who for the third match in a row, has continued to smash her personal best,” said Carpinteria coach Reina Rogers.

Vega who posted a 59. The next match is today, Sept. 14, at the Buenaventura Golf Club against Foothill Tech.

Girls volleyball

September 7 – The Carpinteria High School girls volleyball team beat Fillmore, 3-1, to record its first win of the year. “The Warriors started off a bit timid; however, after losing the first set, Carpinteria made a comeback and never looked back,” said Warrior coach Dino Garcia. Carpinteria won the game 3-1 to record its first win of the year with game scores of 21-25, 25-22, 25-19 and 25-23.

September 12 – The Carpinteria High School girls volleyball team beat Thacher, 3-0, with game scores of 25-14, 25-17 and 25-11. “Carpinteria had great ball control throughout the game, which set up the Warriors for a win in three,” said Carpinteria coach Dino Garcia. The win puts the Warriors overall record at 2-1, and Frontier League record at 2-0. Carpinteria will play against Malibu tonight, Sept. 14.

NOTICE OF AVAILABILITY OF DRAFT MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION FOR THE PROPOSED Green Heron Spring Residences 1300 Cravens Lane Project 16-1840-DP/CDP Date of this Notice: September 11, 2017 Project Description: Request for a Development Plan and Coastal Development Permit to redesign the 31-unit Green Heron Spring condominium project previously approved by the City Council in November 2007. The project would include dismantling an existing residence, barn and storage shed, the remodel of one residence (to remain) and the construction of 30 new residential condominium units on a 3.89-acre site. The contemplated redesign would make adjustments to the previously-approved site plan/building locations, building floor plans, bedroom counts for selected units and building architecture/elevations. Updated landscape, hardscape, fencing and an entry monument are also included.

The current project description includes the following structures to be built: • 10 two-bedroom units, ranging in size from 1,491 square feet to 1,760 square feet (inclusive of attached one-car garages). These units would be configured in attached townhome clusters with other units and are all designed as single level flats. An additional uncovered parking space would be provided for each twobedroom unit; • 19 three-bedroom units, ranging in size from 2,207 square feet to 2,701 square feet (inclusive of attached two-car garages). Of these units, nine would be configured as part of multi-unit townhome buildings, six would be detached single family dwellings, and four would be configured as duplexes; • One detached, 2,723 square foot, fourbedroom single family dwelling (inclusive of attached two-car garage); • An addition to the existing single family residence (to remain) comprised of an attached 929 square foot three-car garage and a second floor recreation room above.

The total gross square footage of the five-bedroom residence would be 4,445 square feet; and • A 780 square foot open air pavilion to be located within the common village green area. The pavilion would include amenities such as a kitchenette, outdoor grill, fireplace lounge area and outdoor seating areas.

In all, the development would include 16 individual buildings (comprised of 15 residential buildings, including the existing residence to remain, and the new pavilion). The total combined gross square footage of all of the dwelling units would be 69,929 square feet. The cumulative building footprint of all structures would be 43,900 square feet. This equates to a building coverage ratio of approximately 26% of the 3.89-acre site.

Pursuant to the City’s Inclusionary Housing Ordinance, and consistent with the previously approved project, four of the new units would be required to be set aside as affordable units designated for the upper-moderate income category. The four inclusionary units would be distributed throughout the development and are made up of two- and three-bedroom townhome and duplex units. The inclusionary units would be designed to be architecturally consistent with the market rate units.

Vehicle access to the site will continue to be taken from Cravens Lane, at approximately the same location as the existing driveway serving the property. The private drive (Green Heron Spring Drive) will provide two-way access to/from a oneway drive loop around the central village green and pavilion. A couple of small spurs will extend from the main drive and loop to provide access to additional units not otherwise fronting on the main drive.

The spur off the southern end of the loop around the village green will also provide access to a secondary (gated) emergency access entry from the adjacent private roadway immediately bordering the southern edge of the project site.

A total of 74 parking spaces would be provided onsite. Of these, 53 spaces would be housed within garages attached to the individual units. The remaining 21 spaces would be provided as uncovered parking spaces spread throughout the development. Of the 21 uncovered spaces, 11 would provide visitor parking for the project, the remaining 10 spaces would provide the second required parking space for each of the development’s two-bedroom units.

The project proposes to provide common open space areas including a community garden area (in the southeast corner of the project site), a centralized village green with an open air pavilion, an additional passive community open space with seating area at the northeast corner of the project site, native plant areas, walking paths and other passive recreation areas, similar to that of the previously approved project. Like the former iteration of the project, the existing agricultural pond would be enhanced and incorporated into the project as part of the development’s common open space and to serve as an onsite stormwater retention feature.

The area surrounding the pond would be revegetated with native plantings to replace the existing non-native species.

In addition to common open space areas, the redesigned concept contemplates private fenced yard areas and/or porches for each unit.

Consistent with the requirements of the Ellinwood Parcel Overlay District, the project would be designed and constructed to U.S. Green Building Council, LEED for homes, rating of “gold” or better.

The project is also required to preserve existing native trees to the maximum extent feasible, restore the onsite pond (as previously described), and provide a permanent onsite bioretention/bioswale system to treat and retain storm water runoff onsite. The project has been designed to incorporate these required elements. Of the 59 specimen trees identified onsite, the project proposes to remove 11 and impact an additional 25 trees. Removed trees are to be mitigated through replacement plantings. The project site has been designed to include permeable hardscape materials and landscaped swales to capture and retain onsite stormwater runoff. The onsite enhanced pond, as previously described, will also be used to capture and retain stormwater runoff.

Offsite improvements associated with the project include the dedication of additional right-of-way for, and the widening of Cravens Lane. The additional rightof-way width will provide sufficient area for the extension of a public sidewalk, parkway strip, on-street parallel parking and bicycle lane. Various utility and storm drain improvements are also required to either extend service to the project site, or tie into existing facilities in Cravens Lane.

Project Location: 1300 Cravens Lane, Carpinteria, CA 93013 Comments: The City of Carpinteria Community Development Department is soliciting comments on the adequacy and completeness of the analysis and proposed mitigation measures described in the Draft Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND).
