Seaside lawsuit delayed

Developers monitor similar dispute in LA

By Laura Place

DEL

MAR

— The developers of the Seaside Ridge housing project in Del Mar are delaying their lawsuit accusing the city of violating state housing law while awaiting the outcome of a similar court case playing out in Los Angeles.

Seaside Ridge is a 259-unit project planned for Del Mar’s North Bluff. Landowner and San Diego philanthropist

Carol Lazier first proposed the development to the city in the fall of 2022. The nine-building development would include 85 units designated as affordable, including 42 for low- to extremely low-income households.

Despite Del Mar’s desperate need for affordable housing, the city’s relationship with Seaside Ridge developers has been extremely fraught due to disagreements over housing law.

Project representatives have argued that the city is required to approve the project under the state law known as the builder’s remedy because its 6th Cycle Housing Element was not certified when the project was proposed.

While the law has been on the books for decades, developers have used it more recently to push through affordable housing projects in cities that are out of compliance with state housing laws.

Cities split $11.4M to clean up homeless sites

By Samantha Nelson OCEANSIDE —

The cities of Oceanside and Carlsbad will split a $11.4 million state grant to clean up homeless encampments and provide permanent housing and supportive services for homeless individuals living along state Route 78 and the Buena Vista Creek area.

Sal Roman, Oceanside’s Homeless Program Manager, said the grant aims to address encampments through partnerships with community

organizations to create a “streamlined process and pathways to permanent housing.”

The grant will be distributed between the two cities, with Oceanside receiving nearly $6.1 million and Carlsbad $5.3 million. Oceanside plans to allocate approximately $2.8 million for city use, with the remaining $3.2 million directed to Interfaith Community Services, a nonprofit based in Escon-

Crews begin $4M road repair project

By Laura Place

SAN

MARCOS —

Crews are kicking off a sixmonth road rehabilitation project along Rancho Santa Fe Road in San Marcos, bringing several needed improvements to 1.3 miles of the busy roadway.

The nearly $4 million project, funded by Transnet dollars, covers the stretch between Melrose Drive and Lake Ridge Drive. Improvements will include new pavement, roadway restriping, improved signal loops, traffic signal safety cameras, and new ADA curb ramps.

While construction will likely cause commuters headaches over the coming months, city officials say the end result will be worth it.

“This project is a critical step forward for the community and underscores our commitment to a safe and strong San Marcos,” said San Marcos Mayor Rebecca Jones. “We know this is a busy stretch of roadway in our community, which makes the goal of this project — improving traffic flows and ensuring safety during peak hours — that much more important.”

Pre-construction work began earlier this month, before the start of school. The city said work will resume Sept. 3 with concrete demolition and electrical wire installation, which will cause a southbound lane closure and impacts to the southbound bike lane and parts of the sidewalk for the next few weeks.

Crews will shift to work on northbound Rancho San-

ta Fe Road once southbound work is finished. However, two-way traffic is expected to be maintained throughout the project.

“During the duration of construction, residents and commuters can expect traffic delays in the working area and are encouraged to take alternate routes. Residents and commuters can also expect large construction equipment, noise, odors, and occasional lane closures and night work during construction,” the city said.

The project will also utilize a paving technique known as cold-in-place recycling, which removes and reuses existing asphalt during new paving to save money and materials.

“This process uses fewer materials, is more cost efficient, and reduces the amount of heavy equipment and delays on the roadway,” the city said.

Other work over the course of the project will include grading and pouring concrete, roadway utility installation, asphalt paving, traffic signal activities, roadway striping, and traffic loop installation, according to Senior Civil Engineer Emad Elias.

San Marcos officials said the city is committed to communicating about road closures and will inform residents, businesses and schools that will be directly affected by activities ahead of time.

The project is expected to be completed in January, pending weather, according to the city.

Worden to leave council seat

Del Mar revisits short-term rental ordinance Sept. 9

By Laura Place

DEL MAR — Long-

time civil servant and current City Council member

Dwight Worden is hanging up his government hat next month after around 50 years of service in various city roles.

Worden announced Monday that he would resign effective Sept. 24 after battling recent health issues. Worden said he decided it would be better to step down now rather than complete the next two years of his council term.

“I just returned from two weeks in Iceland, which helped persuade me that my health and wellbeing and the City would

be better served by bringing this chapter of my life to a close,” Worden said in a statement at Monday’s council meeting.

The city will have 60 days after his resignation to appoint a replacement to serve the remainder of his term or to hold a special election.

Worden has served on

the City Council since 2014, including two years as mayor. He previously served as City Attorney from 1977 to 1983 and then as special counsel to the city on multiple occasions until retiring from law in 2001.

He then held roles on multiple city committees and as a volunteer until he joined the City Council.

“I want to acknowledge and thank the nine Councilmembers I have served with. It has been a great pleasure for me to work with our outstanding City Manager and staff, present and past, over many years,” Worden said.

He added that while he looks forward to taking a respite, he still plans to be active in the community.

Mayor Dave Druker, another familiar face on the council for the past 20 years, will also step away when his term ends this year. His seat and those of council members Tracy Martinez and Dan Quirk are up for election in November.

Worden said he would

Political stunt just ‘meh’

San Diego County Supervisor Terra Lawson-Remer recently used a cute ploy to show her progressive supporters that she is in their corner.

For the rest of us, it’s meh.

At the July Board of Supervisors meeting, Lawson-Remer advanced a resolution entitled “Fighting Back Against Corporate Homebuyers and Wall Street Landlords.” It was a motion to “study the issue,” not anything real.

The day before that meeting, she participated in a demonstration against Blackstone, a large investment firm with sizable real estate holdings.

That event was held in front of a Blackstone-owned apartment building in Pacific Beach and featured Terra in a chartreuse-colored jumpsuit, bull horn in hand, accompanied by social justice allies from SEIU and the ACCE Institute.

Political theater – not up to AOC’s standards, perhaps, but a clever prelude to her Board of Supervisors move.

Perhaps too clever. Terra’s stunt could backfire. A closer examination of this issue should lead her District 3 voters to recognize that she isn’t being straight with them on housing policy.

Yes, high housing costs are troublesome, the biggest factor in the post-pandemic inflation surge.

If one doesn’t own a house, that’s a problem. But a solid majority of county residents live in owner-occupied housing – they benefit from rising prices. Moreover, the geography of Terra’s 3rd Supervisorial District skews more suburban, with 65-70% home ownership in the affluent coastal North of her district.

Another problem for Terra is that observers who delve into the topic will discover that she plays fast and loose with the facts.

An example would be her misleading conflation of investor ownership of single-family homes with that of multi-family buildings.

She attacked Blackstone as “the largest residential landlord in the U.S., with an estimated 300,000 rental units in their portfolio.”

It seems like a lot until one recognizes the country has something like 128 million households – 300,000 units is about 0.23 % of the total. Similarly, she decried Blackstone’s purchase of 66 properties containing 5,600 units in San Diego, an insignificant portion of the county’s 1.5 million households. Do the arithmetic on that, and you’ll see that’s about 85 units per property — they’re apartment buildings.

Lawson-Remer also neglected to mention that Blackstone paid more than $1 billion for those properties. The seller was the Conrad Prebys Foundation, a benefactor to many progressive causes.

According to Molly Kirkland of the Southern California Rental Housing Association, the portfolio of properties was old and needed improvement, which Blackstone has the resources to accomplish.

The deal was clearly not a mom-and-pop opportunity. But it serves Lawson-Remer to demonize the large investors whom we depend on to finance big projects.

The data do not support the theory that big investors are driving up the cost of single-family homes. Terra misleads voters by claiming that “institutional investors” and “hedge funds” are competing with first-time homebuyers.

OUSD forsakes DoD, military kids

By Brad Tobias

In September 2023, the Department of Defense Education Agency (DoDEA) awarded Oceanside Unified School District a $2 million grant.

Upon accepting this award, the district’s superintendent, board of education and executive staff applauded themselves for a job well done.

According to its website, the school district has three K-8 schools on Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, providing education for 2,500 dependent pupils. Sounds good, right? Let’s take a deeper look at the criteria for the award.

from trusted teachers and friends.

Trustee Eleanor Evans, up for reelection this November, boasts she was a military brat. However, she turned her back on the district’s military dependents by abstaining from her vote to save the school and promote academic success for military pupils.

Another incumbent board trustee seeking reelection, Mike Blessing, carelessly voted for demolishing Reynolds Elementary. It’s bad enough that military kids have to move so often because of their military connection. With the school shutting down, the children had to start fresh at yet another school.

analytics firm Parcl Labs, institutional operators own around 0.73% of the total U.S. single-family housing stock (less than one in 100 homes).

And in the past two years (2022-23) only two units were bought by large investors in the entire state of California, says Melanie Woods of the California Apartment Association.

The broad term “investor” includes any purchaser who is not a natural person. According to a source cited in Lawson-Remer’s memo to the Board of Supervisors (CoreLogic), investor purchases of single-family homes have been trending downward since mid-2021, yet home prices have continued to advance.

And most landlords are still small operators with between one and 10 homes.

The big picture is that San Diego County lacks new housing, in part because development at the periphery of the metro area is restricted.

As Supervisor Joel Anderson pointed out, there has been essentially no new housing construction in the county in the past three years. Couple that fact with the low mortgage rates that prevailed for so long, and San Diego home prices naturally went through the roof.

Lawson-Remer’s attack on Blackstone, etc., serves two purposes. It reinforces her standing with the progressive-activist community she relies on to get elected and deflects attention away from her majority’s responsibility for the lack of supply.

Anderson said it well when he declined to support Lawson-Remer’s measure:

“In my district we need more housing…Without large corporations… none of these projects will be built. If we’re going to say that mom-and-pops are the only ones who can build homes for potential rentals, we’re killing the market and we’re hurting the people that we say we serve.”

Under P.L. 109-364, the Secretary of Defense may utilize designated funds to provide resources to public school districts that educate students from military families. These grants will aid military-connected schools with extra resources to improve STEM-related education for military students.

The process involves checking for eligibility, completing the application, and waiting for approval.

In short, receiving a DoDEA grant is like getting a library card; it’s a worry-free approval. Please note that the DoDEA award is taxpayer-funded. Is the district providing a satisfactory return on investment?

From an academic success standpoint, I would say “no.”

In the 2022-23 CAASSP, the base schools recorded the following results: Stuart Mesa Elementary had 43% English language proficiency and 31% math proficiency, Santa Margarita Elementary had 56% E.L. and 40% math, and North Terrace Elementary had 55% E.L. and 44 % math.

The results are a dismal failure under the standard grading scale. The sadder point is that most of the district’s schools not located on Camp Pendleton have even worse scores.

I am not blaming the certified staff members. Instead, I blame the superintendent and board, whose curriculum and policies stifle academic success. Let’s look at another factor.

Shortly before the application process began, the Oceanside Unified school board nearly unanimously voted to close and demolish Reynolds Elementary, the closest off-base school.

The school’s closure was due to structural concerns for earthquakes, whose modifications would’ve cost less than the total DoDEA grant amount. The decision also displaced hundreds of military-dependent students

On top of the academic standards and mismanaged property, there are also budgetary concerns. The district is facing mountainous issues.

In fact, on the proposed budget, the district’s budget section reports for the 2024-2025 net change in fund balance/deficit spending of $17,999,518, with similar numbers being in red for the following two school years.

Regardless, Oceanside Unified Superintendent Julie Vitale’s salary is more than $357,000 after a series of higher and higher raises. In comparison, the U.S. vice president earns $284,000 annually. It’s safe to assume that a dismal fiscal cliff is coming soon, and likely quicker than we realize. In the same report, the district also projects losses of 470 pupils yearly.

Based on this information, should the DoDEA and taxpayers’ dollars be aligned in this partnership with the district? Again, my answer is no.

Profits are not being fulfilled as they should. But what’s the solution? Withholding future DoDEA grants? Replacing the board of trustees? A new district superintendent? While it may be drastic, I conclude the answer is all the above. The taxpayers are not benefitting from the results of the district leadership’s action. However, the saddest part is that military children, represented by the purple ribbon, are being used for the sake of obtaining additional federal funds, most of which are grossly misused.

The Department of Defense demands perfection from its servicemembers. It should do the same for the grants it awards and results for the military children.

Brad Tobias and his wife have three children in Oceanside schools, and he is an advocate for constitutional freedoms and governmental accountability.

Windsor Pointe firm faces rebuke

Comedy club finds larger venue

Grand Comedy moving to North County Mall site

By Samantha Nelson ESCONDIDO —

North County’s lone comedy club is set to relocate to the North County Mall from its current Grand Avenue location later this year.

Grand Comedy Club and Pizzeria, which has become a local fixture, will move into the space formerly occupied by California Pizza Kitchen at 200 E. Via Rancho Parkway.

By Samantha Nelson CARLSBAD —

The city is considering terminating the management company responsible for overseeing Windsor Pointe due to recent security breaches and ongoing safety concerns at the low-income housing site.

On Aug. 20, the Carlsbad City Council directed the city manager to examine the city’s agreements with Affirmed Housing, the developer behind Windsor Pointe, to determine whether there are legal grounds to remove CONAM Management Corporation from continuing to manage operations at the 50-unit complex located at 3606 Harding Street and 965 Oak Avenue. The council also requested options for bolstering onsite security by moving to round-the-clock coverage.

Windsor Pointe has been a source of frustration since it opened two years ago. The complex, which includes 24 units for low-income residents, prioritizes veterans and their families. Two units are reserved for onsite managers, while the remaining 24 units house severely mentally ill individuals, also with a preference for veterans who are homeless or at risk of homelessness.

The development was funded in part by a $10.1 million grant from the county’s No Place Like Home program, which mandates that the project provide housing for people with serious mental illnesses, such as major depressive disorder, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or post-traumatic stress disorder.

Since its opening in the spring of 2022, Windsor Pointe has attracted significant attention from the Carlsbad Police Department and numerous complaints from nearby residents.

Earlier this year, the City Council directed city staff and the police department to find ways to reduce the number of police visits

to Windsor Pointe while increasing the site’s security.

In April, the San Diego County Board of Supervisors approved a series of recommendations to enhance safety and security at Windsor Pointe. These included utilizing funds from the No Place Like Home program and county reserves to pay for additional security, implementing a more secure visitor check-in system, providing 24/7 mental health first aid-trained staff onsite, and expanding behavioral health services throughout the week.

Despite these measures, security at Windsor Pointe has remained a concern. While security personnel are now present onsite from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. daily, and a 24-hour monitoring service has been installed, gaps in the site’s physical security and video surveillance persist.

On the morning of Aug. 20, Carlsbad police Chief Christie Calderwood visited Windsor Pointe, coinciding with the City Council’s fourth update on the project’s progress since March. Calderwood later reported to the council that she observed a shoeless woman gaining unauthorized access to the Oak Avenue site by throwing her bag over the fence and disengaging the emergency access gate lock from the inside without triggering alarms.

Once inside, Calderwood found evidence of someone sleeping in a building space and discovered several doors with disengaged locks. When she attempted to speak with an employee in the office around 8:10 a.m., the office was unstaffed.

Calderwood then contacted Stealth Management, the video surveillance company, and was informed that footage is not actively monitored unless an incident is reported — contrary to what the police department had believed.

Calderwood eventually located a CONAM employee, who acknowledged that the unsecured doors were problematic, as people had figured out how to disengage the locks by pulling Group grilled

Owner Adam Wasserman, who has been a key figure in the region’s comedy scene for nearly two decades, hopes to reopen the club by early December.

Wasserman, a North County native, began his search for a comedy club venue about six years ago. He eventually discovered a former pizzeria on Grand Avenue with a spacious back room. The space, he realized, was ideal for his vision.

“It’s hard to find a really good spot for a comedy club,” Wasserman said. “That room was perfect.”

The Grand Comedy Club officially opened just a few months before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Despite the challenges of business closures and

Carjack suspect arrested

By City News Service

VISTA — A carjacking suspect was arrested Aug. 25 after a pursuit resulting in a rollover crash in Vista, authorities said.

At about 1:30 a.m. Sunday, deputies responded to reports of a vehicle theft in the 900 block of S. Santa Fe Avenue, according to the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department.

A 2003 Mazda hatchback was stolen from the victim by multiple armed suspects who fled the scene.

The vehicle was located shortly afterward near the intersection of Date Street and Grapevine Road.

A traffic stop was initiated, but the driver fled and after a brief pursuit, the suspect flipped the vehicle in the 300 block of Vista Village Drive near a Raising Cane’s restaurant, the department said.

Deputies were seen pulling the driver out of the vehicle’s window before he was arrested and taken to a hospital, where his condition was not immediately available. It was unclear if any other suspects have been taken into custody.

stay-at-home orders, Wasserman managed to keep the club operating by hosting outdoor shows and adhering to social distancing guidelines until restrictions were lifted.

In recent months, Wasserman has been exploring the possibility of relocating to a larger venue. When California Pizza Kitchen vacated its space, he saw an opportunity.

The current location at 340 E. Grand Avenue seats 140, but the new venue will accommodate up to 200

guests, enabling the club to attract more prominent comedians.

Wasserman intends to transform the new location into a pizzeria and sports pub in addition to the comedy club. Despite the move, the name Grand Comedy Club will remain.

The expanded venue will allow the club to operate seven days a week and offer a wider range of entertainment options, such as sports, karaoke, and live music.

Wasserman is also in

the process of obtaining a liquor license, which will allow for a full-service bar.

Excited about the new location’s potential, Wasserman is particularly optimistic about its proximity to Interstate 15, which he believes will draw San Diego’s vibrant comedy scene northward.

“A lot of comedians move to L.A. to start their careers and end up driving down here for a few shows because there’s more opportunity to get paid for comedy here versus up there where it’s more competitive,” he said.

Wasserman’s deep connections in the comedy industry have already brought famous names to his stage, including Neal Brennan, co-creator and co-writer of “Chappelle’s Show,” Jay Mohr, Dustin Ybarra, Taylor Tomlinson, Zoltan Kaszas — who filmed two specials at Grand Comedy Club — and Morgan Jay, among others. Whether the comedians performing at Grand Comedy Club are household names or upand-coming talents, Wasserman guarantees that guests will enjoy a night full of laughter.

“If you come to my club, it’s going to be a great show,” he said.

La Costa Ave plans greenlit

By Walker Armstrong ENCINITAS —

The Encinitas Planning Commission approved two major development projects last Thursday, greenlighting plans for a 42-home residential community and a boutique hotel proposed along the La Costa Avenue corridor.

Developer Toll West Coast, also known as Toll Brothers, one of the largest homebuilding companies in the U.S., presented its plans for The Cove, previously known as “La Costa 48” and “Weston Subdivision Project.”

The project consists of 42 single- and two-story homes in various architectural styles, including modern farmhouses and coastal contemporary and contemporary craftsman designs. Each home will range from approximately 1,600 to 4,000 square feet, and the community is designed to be all-electric with sustainable features like solar panels and electric heat pumps.

During the meeting, several commissioners raised concerns about the homes’ architectural design, particularly the lack of visual interest in some facades and the distinguishable appearance of the affordable housing units.

Others, during public comment, raised concerns about the development’s potential environmental impacts, such as soil contamination and water runoff.

David Hill, a Batiquitos Lagoon Foundation board member who specializes in water quality management, criticized the developers for encapsulating rather than removing what he said were 6,300 tons of hazardous materials, including organochlorine pesticides, buried beneath the planned homes.

environment and minimal environmental footprint.

During the public comment period, some residents expressed concerns about potential parking issues and the impact of events at the hotel.

“I ask the commission to get clarification on where employees are going to park,” said Scott Campbell, a local resident. “Are they going to park next door in the La Costa 48? Are they going to park on Sheridan?”

The applicant, architect Lindsay Brown, said the project was designed to be small-scale and community-friendly.

CARLSBAD — Carlsbad Police officers, with the assistance of a K-9, seized millions of dollars worth of crystal methamphetamine during a routine traffic stop last weekend.

Carlsbad police stopped Eduardo Limas, 24, of Tijuana, Mexico, for a vehicle code violation around 9:42 p.m. on Aug. 16 on Interstate 5 just north of Las Pulgas Road in Oceanside.

ter, Amy.

Police said that after a piece of luggage fell from their vehicle, Ortiz pulled the car over to the side of state Route 78. The children then entered the freeway in order to retrieve it and were struck by an oncoming vehicle, police said. Ortiz and four of her other children were in the car when the fatal crash happened.

During the traffic stop, a police K-9 discovered approximately 2,563 pounds of packaged crystal meth with an estimated street value of between $1.15 million and $3.08 million, according to Public Information Officer Denise Ramirez.

Limas was arrested and booked into the Vista Detention Facility on charges including transportation of a controlled substance and possession of over 20 kilograms of meth.

He is currently being held on a $500,000 bail.

Prosecutors alleged Ortiz had a blood-alcohol-level of 0.14% two hours after the crash and also lacked a valid driver’s license at the time. It remains unclear what prompted the children to enter the freeway lanes. She pleaded guilty to child endangerment and DUI counts.

“My kids grew up, learned how to ride their bikes on Sheridan, and that’s when I first discovered this property, walking and driving by,” Brown said in the meeting.”This is not a dance hall, this is not a hoot and holler late night drinking establishment, this is going to be what you would expect folks like us to build after this much time and passion has been poured into it.”

“There’s liability involved, and the city of Encinitas is on the hook for that,” Hill said in the meeting. “I respectfully indicate … that monitoring groundwater wells be installed in

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

FOR THE NORTH COASTAL VOLUNTEER SHERIFF’S PATROL

The North Coastal Sheriff’s Station is recruiting for its Volunteer Sheriff’s Patrol. This program involves:

• Conducting home vacation security checks

• Assisting with traffic control

• Patrolling neighborhoods, schools, parks, and shopping centers in patrol cars and on foot

• Visiting homebound seniors who live alone in the communities of Encinitas, Solana Beach, Del Mar, and portions of the county’s unincorporated areas, such as Rancho Santa Fe

• Performing other duties as needed

The primary mission of the volunteers is to serve as an extra set of eyes and ears for the deputies on patrol. To be eligible, volunteers must be at least 50 years old, in good health, and have no significant mobility limitations. Volunteers must pass a background check, have auto insurance, and a valid California driver’s license. Training involves two weeks at the Sheriff’s Academy plus several in-field patrols. Volunteers must commit to four 6-hour shifts with a partner and attendance at one program meeting per month. If interested, please contact the Volunteer Sheriff’s Patrol at (760) 966 3579 to schedule an initial interview.

Despite reservations, the commission moved forward with a vote to approve the project and the motion passed unanimously.

The commission also approved plans for the La Costa Boutique Hotel, a 17room establishment featuring a small restaurant and several sustainable design elements. The hotel aims to provide a low-impact addition to the community, emphasizing a family-friendly

After deliberation, the commission voted unanimously to approve the La Costa Boutique Hotel project, concluding that it met all municipal codes and guidelines.

“I think it’s an exceptional design,” said Commission Chair Stephen Dalton. “I mean, I think if a project of this small scale can’t come into our town, with 17 technical studies, and be approved, it would be a travesty.”

Carlsbad Police K-9s are specially trained dogs skilled in suspect apprehension and narcotics detection who work alongside a police officer handler.

A predawn trench collapse at a construction site across the street from Scripps Ranch High School left a laborer dead on Aug. 28, authorities reported.

The industrial accident occurred at about 4 a.m. at Hoyt Park Drive and Scripps Ranch Boulevard, according to the San Diego Fire-Rescue Department.

The cave-in left the victim trapped under dirt and a “very large’’ concrete pipe that construction crews were installing as part of a water-system project, SDFRD Deputy Fire Chief Dan Eddy told reporters.

A second worker who was in the roughly 20-footdeep trench at the time of the accident was able to avoid getting trapped, Eddy said.

Emergency personnel had to shore up the pit to prevent any further collapses prior to removing the body of the victim, whose name was not immediately available.

“It’s a very technical rescue for us to get the victim back out,’’ Eddy told OnSceneTV. “We’re going to have to use (an) excavator ... We’re also going to bring in a truck to remove a lot of the dirt that’s around there.’’ Firefighters had the victim’s body freed and removed from the trench shortly before 9 a.m..

Encinitas weighs Moonlight Beach skate bowl

By Walker Armstrong ENCINITAS

— On a hot, sunny day at Moonlight Beach, on an empty patch of sand off the beaten path, three 60-year-old skateboarders stand around the perimeter where they hope to realize a life-long dream: building a skate bowl at the beach.

“That’s why we were calling it the ‘Dream Bowl,’ because this would be a dream for any skater,” said Barry Blumenthal, standing beside his colleagues, David Skinner and Doug Marker. “To be in Encinitas, where the weather is just Goldilocks almost all the time, and you got a bowl on the beach, oh, I mean, you’re just inspired.”

A few days later, at a heavily attended Parks & Recreation Commission meeting at City Hall on Tuesday, Blumenthal, Skinner and Marker presented their proposal, emphasizing the need for an additional skate bowl in Encinitas.

“We want to put a professional skateboarding bowl at Moonlight Beach,” Marker said during the meeting. “Encinitas is the mecca of skateboarding, … and by building a bowl here, you’re showing our city and the worldwide skate community that you’re proud of our skateboard heritage.”

The longtime Encinitas residents argued that Moonlight Beach, with its iconic location, ample parking and existing infrastructure, is an ideal site for a new skate bowl. They also suggested the project could attract private funding, easing the financial burden on the city.

The three cited overuse of the existing bowl at the Encinitas Community Park, also known as Poods Park, the requirement to pay to skate the YMCA bowls, as well as the growth in skateboarding’s popularity following its inclusion in the Olympics.

“This [other] bowl is located in Encinitas Community Park, known as Poods, whose bowl can no longer accommodate the amount of skateboarders attending it,” Marker said. “In fact, the bowl will now undergo construction to replace its coping and tile due to overuse.”

The group’s chosen location, a roughly 6,000 square-foot patch of sand in the northeastern corner of Moonlight Beach, is an area where they said few people traffic or hang out.

The presentation highlighted the potential benefits of the skateboarding bowl, including increased tourism, economic impact and the promotion of Encinitas as a skateboarding hub. They also noted that the bowl would cater to a wide range of users, from local skaters to international teams, and would be designed for speed, making it both challenging and accessible.

In response, Blumenthal said the trio needed guidance in order to ensure the “Dream Bowl” could one day become a reality.

“When we picked a location, we’re flying blind,” Blumenthal said. “But there are other locations all around Moonlight that might work as well, we just need help

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CARLSBAD, CALIFORNIA, ADDING CHAPTER 6.15 TO THE CARLSBAD MUNICIPAL CODE TO PROHIBIT SMOKING IN MULTI-UNIT RESIDENCES

SMOKE-FREE MULTI-UNIT HOUSING ORDINANCE

ZCA2024-0004

The proposed ordinance prohibits smoking in multi-unit residential buildings and in the outdoor common areas starting on January 1, 2025.

The proposed ordinance would ban smoking of tobacco and cannabis products, including vaping, inside and outside multi-unit buildings containing three or more units, including apartment buildings, condominiums, townhomes, senior and assisted living facilities and long-term health care facilities. It would apply to both rental and for-sale housing units. It includes an option that would allow for the creation of designated outdoor smoking areas that meet speci c criteria.

The ordinance adds Chapter 6.15 to the Carlsbad Municipal Code titled “Prohibition of Smoking in Multi-Unit Residences.” Some of the more signi cant provisions of the ordinance:

• Applies to existing and proposed multi-unit residences, which includes any rental or for-sale housing development with three or more units (Exception: Hotels, single-family homes with accessory dwelling units or junior accessory dwelling units, and mobile homes in a mobile home park are not subject to this ordinance).

• Smoking would be prohibited indoors, including individual units and associated balconies, porches, decks, and patios.

• Smoking would be prohibited in exterior common areas, such as halls, pathways, lobbies, stairwells, mail areas/rooms, community rooms, playgrounds, pools, laundry rooms and parking lots.

• A designated smoking area could be established outdoors by landlords or property managers but must be su ciently distant – at least 25 feet – from units and other outdoor amenities.

• The ordinance requires smoke-free provisions to be placed in new lease or sales agreements, making smoking a violation of both the agreement and the local ordinance.

• The ordinance allows for enforcement by private individuals against any tenant or owner-occupant violating the ordinance through the use of a civil action for damages or injunction. Statutory damages are set at $500 for each violation. The ordinance does not create a private right of action for a tenant against a landlord.

• Smoking in violation of the ordinance is declared to be a public nuisance.

ALL HANDS ON DECK

By Walker Armstrong ENCINITAS

— The nearly century-old iconic Encinitas Boat Houses, SS Encinitas and SS Moonlight, currently sit empty in critical condition, plagued with structural issues and a lack of funding for necessary repairs, members of the Encinitas Preservation Association told The Coast News.

Built in the late 1920s by local architect Miles Minor Kellogg, these local New England-inspired landmarks, comprised of reclaimed lumber, feature nautical themes, including porthole windows, ship’s wheels, and weathered wood exteriors.

The boat houses, dry docked at 726-732 Third Street, are early examples of California’s “courtyard architecture” along Coast Highway 101. Each home is 15 feet tall and 20 feet long with an area of approximately 1,100 square feet.

Today, the homes, owned by the Encinitas Preservation Association since 2008, are afflicted by foundational issues caused by decades of moisture, poor drainage and deteriorating building materials.

“These boats are collapsing,” said J.T. Knowles, an Encinitas Preservation Association board member. “Every single day, we worry about losing them.”

Potential natural disasters, such as earthquakes or storms, could further exacerbate the homes’ ongoing structural decline, underscoring the

urgency of the repairs.

However, members of the local nonprofit are hopeful that with sufficient support, the houses listed on the National Register of Historic Places can be stabilized and preserved as a lasting tribute to Encinitas’ coastal history.

Salvaged from the wood of the Prohibition-era Moonlight Beach Dance Parlor and Encinitas Hotel built in 1888, both houses are supported by a series of concrete pilings with wooden beams hoisting the hulls.

SS Encinitas, the southernmost house, is now being supported by a wooden cradle to prevent the structure from tilting further.

“The boats are getting to be 100 years old, and it’s pretty amazing the way they’re structurally supported, that they’re still here because it’s just like little four-by-four posts holding them up,” said Bart Smith, president of the Encinitas Preservation Association board. “So, we need to do is figure out a way to shore them up so that they’re supported for another 100 years.”

The interior of both boat houses has warped over the years due to water damage and disrepair, making the wooden floors, walls and ceilings crooked and uneven.

Board members said several temporary measures have already been taken to help stabilize the nautical-themed homes,

such as addressing water intrusion issues and minor structural repairs.

However, since the group lacks the funds needed for a complete res-

toration, these efforts have only served as temporary, stop-gap solutions.

The Encinitas Preservation Association, a nonprofit, faces financial

strain as the properties remain vacant due to safety issues.

With no rental income from the houses, the association is struggling to cover the mortgage, with the only revenue coming from the low-income units at the back of the property.

“The EPA is a nonprofit, and as such, is completely dependent on rent to pay all its bills,” Knowles said. “And now that these are empty, we’re running out of money fast.”

The group is now embarking on an urgent fundraising and grant-writing campaign to secure the estimated $1 million needed to restore the structures.

To support the resto -

ration efforts, the Encinitas Preservation Association plans a fundraising event early next year in partnership with local businesses and community members.

The members said they are also working to secure additional funding through city, county, state and federal grant programs.

“It’s like we’re constantly just playing catch up with the work we’ve done, not really addressing the big elephant in the room, which is the major structural work,” said Sean Englert, an Encinitas Preservation Association board member. “And now I’d say we’re bordering on emergency.”

MEMBERS OF the Encinitas Preservation Association JT Knowles, Sean Englert and Bart Smith hope to raise money to fully repair the iconic but declining Encinitas Boat Houses. The local group purchased the homes in 2008 and, in addition to paying the mortage every month, is solely responsible for repairs. Photos by Walker Armstrong

CITY OF CARLSBAD

Summary of Ordinance No. CS-474 per Government Code §36933(c)

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CARLSBAD, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING A ZONE CODE AMENDMENT AND A LOCAL COASTAL PROGRAM AMENDMENT TO TITLE 15, GRADING AND DRAINAGE, AND TITLE 21, ZONING ORDINANCE OF THE CARLSBAD MUNICIPAL CODE TO COMPLETE VARIOUS MISCELLANEOUS CLEANUP CHANGES

2024 ZONE CODE CLEANUP

ZCA 2024-0001/LCPA 2024-0020/MCA 2024-0001 (PUB 2024-0005)

The proposed ordinance amends portions of Carlsbad Municipal Code, Titles 15 and 21. The amendments are proposed to improve the usability of the code for sta and customers, implement state law, and resolve inconsistencies.

Amendments to Title 15, Grading and Drainage

The ordinance amends Section 15.16.060 “Work exempt from a grading permit” and 15.16.065 “Application for grading plan” to reintroduce a section previously removed during the 2022 Zone Code Clean Up. The amendments also incorporate capital improvement projects initiated by the city or the Carlsbad Municipal Water District into the list of projects that are exempt from certain requirements related to grading permit applications.

Amendments to Title 21, Zoning

• The ordinance amends Section 21.45.090 “Residential additions and accessory uses” to remove Note 2 regarding building separation under Table F. Note 2 is no longer necessary and should have been deleted when Ordinances CS-432 and CS449 were adopted in 2023. Correcting this error provides consistency among standards.

• The ordinance amends Section 21.201.130 “Developments appealable to the coastal commission” to remove the reference to subsection B in Section 21.201.130 A.3. The subsection was added by Ordinance CS-178 in 2012 but did not ever include Item B in the nal adopted language. Correcting this error provides clarity and consistency by removing the reference to a subsection that did not ever exist.

• The ordinance amends Section 21.10.030 “Accessory dwelling units and junior accessory dwelling units” to remove E.12 (pre-CS-449)/E.11 (post-CS-449) from Section 21.10.030. This change provides consistency with state law (Assembly Bill 976) which prohibits a jurisdiction from enforcing any owner occupancy requirements for accessory dwelling units.

• The ordinance amends Sections 21.30.010 “Permitted uses” and 21.32.010 “Permitted uses” to modify the level of permitting required for “Educational facilities, other” in the “M,” Industrial and “C-M,” Heavy Commercial zones. “Education facilities, other” is de ned as training or tutoring not subject to the education code (CMC 21.04.137 “Educational facilities, other”). The change would modify the existing permitting requirements from a minor conditional use permit to a permitted use, consistent with what is permitted in other commercial zones.

• The ordinance amends Section 21.58.030 “Expiration of permits” to revise code language by extending permit approval from two to three years to allow for additional time to exercise a permit. The addition of items B and C provides additional clari cation on what activities constitute “exercised” as conditionally required in the existing code language and consistent with existing process and clari cation on the terms and limits for projects that do not require a building or grading permit.

• The ordinance amends Section 21.10.040, “Home occupations” to update language describing the permitted activities and requirements for dwellings used to host home occupations in the R-1 zone. The amendment provides additional clari cations to the language which had limited interpretability due to a lack of speci city. The proposed language also incorporates standards maintained by the state’s Health and Safety Code.

• The ordinance amends the “Permitted uses” tables of Sections 21.26.010, 21.28.010 and 21.31.030 to add “Mixed Use Development” in the “C-1,” Neighborhood Commercial, “C-2,” General Commercial, and “C-L,” Local Shopping Center zones. This amendment does not permit mixed use development; rather, it calls attention to the zones where mixed use development is already allowed but is not expressly identi ed as a permitted use.

• The ordinance makes changes to the nomenclature denoting “Open Space” zones from “O-S” to “OS” within Chapter 21.33. This minor shift in nomenclature is intended to reduce confusion and create consistency within city publications.

• The ordinance adds a clarifying statement to Section 21.210.030 that discusses the requirements that must be met prior to the removal of habitat permitted under the city’s Habitat Management Program (HMP). The amendment states that habitat removal shall not be permitted until the conditions of the existing CMC Chapter 21.210, the city’s HMP, are satised. The amendment to section 21.210.100 provides additional speci cation of the party responsible for restoring habitat that was removed in violation of Chapter 21.210.

• The ordinance adds Section 21.04.024 to “De nitions” and makes changes to Section 21.07.020 “Permitted uses”, Section 21.08.020 “Permitted uses”, 21.09.020 “Permitted uses”, 21.29.030 “Permitted uses”, 21.36.020 “Permitted uses”, and 21.39.020 “Permitted uses.” The amendments streamline permitted agriculture uses, de ne “agriculture/aquaculture/ ower stands,” and update existing stand uses with consistent terminology. The amendment speci cally includes the addition of “Agriculture” and a related footnote in the “Permitted Uses” tables in the “E-A,” Exclusive Agriculture, “R-A,” Residential Agriculture, “R-E” Rural Residential Estate, and “P-U” Public Utility zones. The amendments also update the “Permitted Uses” tables for the “E-A” Exclusive Agriculture, “R-A” Residential Agricultural, “R-E” Rural Residential Estate, “C-T” Commercial Tourist, “P-U” Public Utility, and “L-C” Limited Control zones.

• The ordinance adds Chapter 21.89 “Substantial Conformance Review” to standardize and update existing Community Development Department protocol for the review of applications seeking a consistency determination. Based on the department’s existing Policy 35, the language and standards included in this chapter outline the process and standards which a proposed project will be reviewed against. Formalizing this process and codifying it into the city’s municipal code increases transparency in review and aligns the city’s discretionary review process with similar processes such as those recently adopted with the city’s Objective Design Standards and established by state law.

A certi ed copy of the full text of the proposed ordinance is posted in the O ce of the City Clerk, 1200 Carlsbad Village Drive, Carlsbad, CA 92008.

PASSED AND ADOPTED at a Regular Meeting of the City Council of the City of Carlsbad, California, on the 20th day of Aug. 2024, by the following vote, to wit:

AYES: BLACKBURN, BHAT-PATEL, ACOSTA, BURKHOLDER, LUNA.

This includes addressing governance and related accountability topics per statute. Once a nal report is completed, the Commission will use the municipal service review over the proceeding ve-year period to (a) guide subsequent sphere of in uence updates, (b) inform future boundary changes and out-of-agency services, and – if merited to meet community needs – (c) initiate government reorganizations, such as special district formations, consolidations, and/or dissolutions.

LAFCO is currently inviting public review and comment on a revised draft report covering the municipal service review. Comments should be submitted in writing (emails preferred and directed to Analyst II Michaela Peters at michaela.peters@sdcounty.ca.gov) no later than Friday, September 20, 2024. Sta will incorporate written comments that are received by this date into the preparation of a nal report, which is expected to be presented to the Commission as early as its October 7, 2024 meeting as part of a separately noticed hearing.

Scripps scientists wrap necropsy of deep-sea oarfish

By City News Service REGION — Scientists

at UC San Diego’s Scripps Institution of Oceanography have completed a necropsy on a deep-sea oarfish, which washed up earlier this month, providing a rare look and scientific data, it was announced Aug. 22.

Kayakers and snorkelers in La Jolla Cove ran into the already dead fish on Aug. 10 -- just the 20th of its species documented to have washed up on California beaches since 1901.

The fish was transported to the NOAA Fisheries’ Southwest Fisheries Science Center in La Jolla. On Friday, a team of scientists from UCSD, Cal State Fullerton, and NOAA were able to examine the short-crested oarfish, performing a necropsy, or animal autopsy, to learn more about the organism.

“Rare encounters like this provide an amazing opportunity to learn more about this species and how it lives,’’ said Ben Frable, ichthyologist and manager of the Marine Vertebrate Collection at Scripps, and part of the necropsy team. “We are fortunate to have a large community of researchers and world-class collection that mobilized quickly to examine and preserve this fish.’’

The fish was an adult male, measuring 12.25 feet long, 1.14 feet in depth, and weighing 74.3 pounds. It had a scaleless, long, ribbon-like, silvery body with dark spots. According to the necropsy data, a long red dorsal fin crest measuring 2.17 feet in length extended from the top of the head.

Often described as sea serpents in history, oarfish can grow to lengths of 30 feet and are the longest bony fish in the world. Oarfish have a mythical reputation as predictors of natural disasters and earthquakes.

Scientists do not know why the fish — which looked to be in good condi-

tion -- washed up where it did, though it is generally thought to have to do with injury, illness and disorientation. Frable said that La Jolla Shores is situated next to two underwater canyons that funnel deep water close to shore.

Samples from the fish will be used for several purposes, including:

• Mapping the first high-quality, chromosome-level genome for the longest bony fish in the world;

• Using stable isotopes and genetic barcoding to better understand foraging ecology, or what the fish is eating and its role in the marine food web;

• Describing the shape and function of the gills and gill rakers -- the elements that the fish use to filter their prey from the water -to look at the filtering anatomy and to inform studies of metabolism and feeding strategies; and

• Describing the reproductive status. This male did not have visible signs of

milt (sperm) and scientists have previously found that oarfish locally are reproducing in June, but not August or September.

Additionally, researchers will analyze organs, tissues and body fluids for potential presence of contaminants such as microplastics and DDT and compare its digestive system with the other species of oarfish.

“This oarfish presents a rare opportunity to obtain fresh samples for genomic analysis, allowing us to study the evolutionary adaptations that enable this species to thrive in deep-sea environments,’’ said Dahiana Arcila, marine biologist and curator of the Marine Vertebrate Collection at Scripps. “This finding also significantly contributes to documenting life on our planet, with each specimen providing valuable data to guide conservation efforts and enhance our understanding of marine ecosys-

BACK INTO FOCUS

Carlsbad author’s book shines light on Gen Z’s mental health crisis

By Samantha Nelson CARLSBAD —

Carlsbad native Aly Vredenburgh has released a new book that delves into the mental health challenges faced by Generation Z, offering insights and solutions to foster “real change” for her generation.

Vredenburgh, 27, has harbored a deep interest in the mental healthcare system since her childhood in coastal North County, where she first gained recognition by winning a middle school science fair for her research on mental health.

This early passion grew as she witnessed both her peers and herself grappling with mental health issues over the years, leading her to identify what she describes as an epidemic.

“I made it my life’s mission to address the epidemic,” Vredenburgh said.

After earning a Master’s degree in social innovation from the University of San Diego, Vredenburgh’s work has been featured in scientific journals and global conferences focused on adolescent mental health. She

currently runs a therapeutic art program for high school students, which she notes has made a significant impact on her clients.

The impetus to write her book came after the loss of her best friend to mental health struggles at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, a tragedy that deeply affected her.

“It was the hardest thing I’ve ever been through,” Vredenburgh said of her friend’s death. “I didn’t leave my bed for a year.”

As she worked through her grief, Vredenburgh felt compelled to illuminate the complexities of Gen Z’s mental health crisis in a way that would resonate widely. This led to the publication of her book, “Out of Focus: Why Gen Z’s Mental Health Crisis is More Complex Than You Think,” in early August.

“I named the book ‘Out of Focus’ because these issues have been out of focus from the media, and it feels like no one is really talking about it – and when they do, they always just blame social media,” she explained. “I felt like I real-

ly needed to talk about all of the factors creating this crisis with my background in social innovation.”

The book addresses several key areas, including the distinct upbring-

cultural, health, social, and technological factors with historical contexts that have contributed to the mental health crisis, systemic corruption exacerbating the issue, the lone -

...These issues have been out of focus from the media, and it feels like no one is really talking about it.”

ing of Generation Z — aka Zoomers, the generation succeeding Millenials — compared to previous generations, the interplay of

liness epidemic, and innovative prevention-focused solutions.

Vredenburgh also highlights the struggle to

meet basic needs as a significant factor affecting mental health.

“A lot of people are not having their basic needs met,” she said. “About 70% of people can barely afford groceries, and with the average cost of therapy ranging from $100 to $200 per month even with health insurance, a lot of people simply can’t afford it.”

She further discusses how older generations’ perceptions of Gen Z have contributed to the mental health crisis, emphasizing that while her book centers on Gen Z, it offers valuable insights for older generations as well.

“It’s important for older

generations to know their part in this,” she said. “Gen Z is different, and they have to meet us where we’re at. We have a lot of ways we can benefit organizations: for example, we’re digital natives, so we’re able to navigate things differently.”

Vredenburgh expressed disappointment at the lack of media coverage on Gen Z’s mental health crisis and hopes her book will spur more attention and action from local leaders and beyond.

“I offer real solutions to lawmakers, Gen Z, and other generations in my book,” she said. “I have a lot of ideas that I think can help us.”

As she continues to promote her book, Vredenburgh is open to speaking at local events on the topic. “Out of Focus” is available for purchase online through Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

Quality beer on tap at Enzo’s BBQ Ale House

I Like Beer

While this summer has allowed me to experience great beers far and wide, there’s nothing like a local treasure.

Enzo’s BBQ Ale House in Oceanside is just such a gem.

Owner and self-proclaimed beer aficionado

Enzo Mistretta has strong opinions about beer, his tap list, and how it should be served. His attention to detail and superbly curated offerings make the beer as much of the experience as his excellent barbecue.

ILB: What was the jour-

ney from Bagheria, Sicily, to Oceanside? How did you end up here making great food and serving amazing beer?

Mistretta: My uncle, who was also my mentor. He imported me from Sicily to Carlsbad. He put me right into the dining room and I learned English immediately. Then he put me in the kitchen. Then he made me a manager where you have to learn to do every job. So, I thank him for teaching me the business.

ILB: And then you opened your own place?

Mistretta: Yes, in 2006, I opened Enzo’s BBQ. A smaller location with four tables. But that helped me get here in this larger place (6,000 square feet versus 800).

ILB: With a much more expansive tap list!

Mistretta: Yes, I had 15 beers at the old place. Now I

$1.00 OFF (exclude tuesday) 760-722-1723

have 30 on draft plus bottles.

ILB: Enzo, let’s talk about quality.

Mistretta: It’s all about quality. Who doesn’t want the best? When I first started this in Oceanside, it was hard. I was one of the first to be serving Belgian ales and German lagers in the proper glassware.

ILB: Glassware is important. It’s part of the craft, isn’t it?

it has the proper aroma and the proper amount of foam to protect the beer from oxidation.

ILB: Any challenges in helping your clientele appreciate what you’re serving and how you do it?

Mistretta: Oh, yes. Especially at first. Trying to educate people has been my challenge. The other thing is service. Presentation is everything. Someone who likes these kinds of beers wants them served properly. A lot goes into training.

280 S.

Mistretta: My philosophy about beer is like wine. Craftsmanship is what matters. If that brewer has done all he can, using the best ingredients, yeast, malts, and method, and years of perfecting the process, then my job as a restaurateur is to deliver it the proper way so

ILB: This lineup of beers seems to be as much for you as for your customers.

Mistretta: Absolutely! My target is for when you walk through those doors, I surpass your expectations. I try to cover all styles as best as I can with 30 taps. There should be something here for everyone who likes beer.

ILB: If they don’t see something they like, they don’t like beer.

Mistretta: For someone who knows beer, it’s like Disneyland! They say, ‘Where have you been all my life!’ These beers are very hard to source. Secondly, they are extremely expensive. The reason you don’t see Delirium Tremens on tap anywhere is the price.

ILB: How often do you rotate your taps to something new?

are always on tap, and everything else gets rotated constantly.

ILB: Do you remember one of the beers that first got you interested in craft?

Mistretta: Mother Earth’s Primordial Double IPA. The flavor was so good and so intense. Another one was the original recipe of Alpine Nelson.

ILB: Beyond the rare exports, you also have a lot of Russian River and local offerings.

ILB: And you’re opening up a new location.

Mistretta: Encinitas soon.

ILB: It’s going to be popular!

Mistretta: Always put the best quality out there, and people will recognize it. It’s hard to get customers to come through that door. So it has to be quality when they get here.

Mistretta: We keep it fun! Some Belgians, like Delirium Tremens and Kwak,

Mistretta: My goal is for when you walk in, you say, ‘Holy moly! I’ve never seen that on tap before.’ And absolutely must have some of the locals. I was the first client of Burgeon [Beer Company] and Belching Beaver. Because when I tasted those beers, I thought, ‘Boy, these guys are up to something!

Enzo’s BBQ Ale House is located at 4141 Oceanside Blvd., Oceanside. The Encinitas location will soon open, so keep an eye out.

A summer classic: Crafting the perfect BLT

Summer, especially August, has always been my favorite time of year to enjoy the bounty of amazing produce that peaks in both California and Michigan.

While California seems to have good produce yearround, the peak for some of my favorite crops is late summer, and that is definitely the case in Michigan.

Here are some of my favorites, along with some detailed preparation techniques.

Since vine-ripe, homegrown tomatoes are my absolute favorite, I always try to find a local source if I’m not growing them myself.

This could be a friend or a small local farm, as it’s rare for a grocery store

to have tomatoes worthy of the task — though heirlooms will do in a pinch.

I want a deep red, fully ripened, juicy beefsteak tomato for my first and most prized dish of late summer: the glorious bacon, lettuce, and tomato sandwich, or BLT as we all know it.

I’ve established that the tomato is the essential ingredient here and why this time of year is really the only time to attempt the perfect BLT.

I’ll make an exception for a beautiful heirloom from one of our fancier purveyors of grocery goodness, which we have in abundance in North County.

Again, either grow them yourself, buddy up to someone who does, or find a farmers market stand with locally grown tomatoes.

Next up is the bacon, an equally important part of the BLT that should not be taken lightly. While there are plenty of decent choices in most stores, I

always go with the thicker-cut, applewood-smoked variety. If you really want to take it to the highest level possible, find a store that sells Nueske’s and go out of your way to get it.

This Wisconsin-based maker of splendid pork products is the gold standard in bacon, and their applewood bacon is the best I’ve had.

The lettuce portion

of the perfect BLT is the universally agreed-upon iceberg. This is really not up for debate, as no other variety can even come close to providing the crisp, crunchy, cool goodness that iceberg offers.

Mayonnaise is the only condiment needed for a BLT, and the general rule of thumb among purists is to use either Best Foods or Hellmann’s.

SusieCakes debuts at The Forum

By Staff CARLSBAD

— A pop -

ular Los Angeles-based bakery, SusieCakes, has expanded its presence in Carlsbad with the opening of its second location on Aug. 24 at The Forum Carlsbad.

Known for its vibrant cupcakes and traditional layer cakes, SusieCakes will welcome customers at 1935 Calle Barcelona.

“We are thrilled to open our newest location at The Forum Carlsbad, a vibrant hub for shopping, dining, and community gatherings throughout the year,” said SusieCakes Founder and CEO Susan Sarich in a press release.

urday from 12 p.m. to 3 p.m., and guests were offered samples of various baked goods, music, face painting, a balloon artist and other family-friendly activities.

Attendees also had the chance to win a free cake for a year and receive a grab bag gift with every purchase. The first 50 guests in line received a SusieCakes-branded coffee mug.

Some might argue for Miracle Whip, but I ignore them. The mayonnaise is there to blend in and complement the other ingredients, not to stand out and distract from them.

Finally, the most hotly debated portion of the perfect BLT is the choice of bread. Let me preface this with my deep appreciation for crusty baguettes, sourdough, or similar artisanal loaves of gluten-laden goodness.

That said, there are two times of the year when what I refer to as spongy white bread is the only way to go.

The first is the day after Thanksgiving, to mold around and hold together the turkey, stuffing, and cranberry sauce sandwich. It’s also the best possible

choice for the perfect BLT. The chances of the ingredients sliding around or out between the bread are plentiful, and who wants that? That said, I do want a bit of crunch to my bread, so I take a page from the British and fry up my spongy white bread in bacon grease to a light toast. It perfectly completes my BLT masterpiece.

Cut the sandwich on the diagonal and serve it up with the sweetest, freshest corn on the cob you can find and your favorite potato chips. I’m also a fan of Vernors ginger ale as my beverage of choice — it’s a Michigan soda you can now find in California stores. And there you have it, the official Lick the Plate BLT to savor in these last days of summer!

“This location is a perfect fit for our bakery, and I’m excited to bring our delicious custom cakes, cupcakes, and other treats to this beautiful space. We love the Carlsbad community and are eager to provide our loyal guests with the convenience of picking up their favorite treats while enjoying all that The Forum Carlsbad has to offer.”

Founded by Sarich in 2006 in Los Angeles’ Brentwood neighborhood, SusieCakes draws inspiration from her childhood memories of baking with her grandmothers, Mildred and Madeline.

In addition to the new location, SusieCakes operates another store in Carlsbad at 7610 Via Campanile, Suite 144. The bakery also has locations across Southern and Northern California, as well as in Texas and Tennessee.

The grand opening celebration was held Sat-

The new Carlsbad bakery will be open Monday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. and on Sunday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.

County to study Prop 36

By City News Service

SAN DIEGO — A divided county Board of Supervisors voted 3-2 on Aug. 27 to direct the chief administrative officer to prepare a report on how Proposition 36 on the November statewide ballot might impact county homeless-services funding and other programs.

The board’s action detoured from the original resolution backed by Supervisors Joel Anderson and Jim Desmond and county District Attorney Summer Stephan, which called on the board to support the measure. Anderson and Desmond voted against the alternative motion by Board Chairwoman Nora Vargas, who was supported by colleagues Monica Montgomery Steppe and Terra Lawson-Remer.

According to Lawson-Remer’s office, the substitute motion directs CAO Ebony Shelton “to work with relevant groups and departments to provide a thorough analysis of how the changes to Proposition 47 through the potential passage of

dido that provides shelter, substance use treatment, and other services to homeless individuals.

Carlsbad will distribute its funds among four agencies, including La Posada de Guadalupe, a local homeless shelter for single men run by Catholic Charities, which will receive $515,025. The Whole Person Care Clinic, part of the Foundry Community Church in Escondido, will receive $790,125 to provide medical services.

The Community Resource Center, an Encinitas-based nonprofit supporting domestic violence survivors and those in need, will receive more than $3.5 million. Carlsbad will use $486,376 directly.

The funding comes from the California Interagency Council on Homelessness’s Encampment Resolution Fund, part of a broader $192 million initiative announced by Gov. Gavin Newsom earlier this year. Oceanside and

Proposition 36 may impact funding for county services, with a specific focus on behavioral health services, housing and development services, and homelessness-related programs.’’

The CAO was directed to return to the board on Oct. 8 “with a multiple-scenario analysis so the board can consider taking a position on Proposition 36.”

Backers say Proposition 36 is needed to correct the unintended consequences of Proposition 47, which voters passed in 2014 and reclas-

Carlsbad’s grant is the only one awarded in San Diego County.

“This program not only has measurable results but also tangible, feasible results,” Roman said during an Aug. 21 council meeting.

“The goal is to really address 100% of encampment residents, hyper-focusing on the targeted area by addressing the needs of individuals with a multidisciplinary team to provide pathways to housing.”

Roman praised the efforts of Carlsbad Housing and Homeless Services Director Mandy Mills and her team in developing the program.

Some residents expressed concern about the treatment of individuals under the program and questioned whether it might merely shift the problem rather than solve it.

“I’m hoping we’re having compassion and humanity when we’re out there sweeping these camps,” said Oceanside resident Sunny Soto, a local chef who pro-

sified some “non-violent’’ felonies as misdemeanors. Recent concerns about organized retail thefts and burglaries have led some to rethink the measure. That led to the development of Proposition 36, also known as the “Homelessness, Drug Addiction and Theft Reduction Act,’’ which is backed by a host of prosecutors and law enforcement leaders. If passed, the measure would: -- classify repeat theft as

vides meals to homeless individuals through Sunny Street Outreach. “It’s not just waste management coming through to make sure these people are herded into these hotel vouchers.”

Others feared the program could push homeless individuals to less visible locations in the community. Roman emphasized that the initiative is not intended to push people away or involve law enforcement.

“It’s not a sweep,” Roman said. “There’s no law enforcement involved; these are all professionals going in and doing the work. They will not move on until each individual is served.”

City Manager Jonathan Borrego clarified that while the program does not include a law enforcement component, the city would not allow illegal activity to continue unchecked.

“The goal is to get people into housing services, but that doesn’t mean that folks out there get a pass to do whatever they want,” Borrego said.

Barrett steps down after lifting others up

sports talk

Dave Barrett lets the numbers rattle around his noggin, the one covered by an Oceanside High baseball cap for nearly five decades.

Barrett is hanging up that cap after directing Pirates baseball since 1978, although it’s just the tip of his impressive accomplishments.

When Oceanside dominated football, spitting out two state titles and 13 CIF San Diego championships, Barrett was barking out assignments as its defensive coordinator for 16 of the 28 years he was an assistant coach.

He’s also too modest to cite his baseball teams’ successes. They won seven league titles and were a CIF San Diego Section finalist three times. Barrett pushed enough right buttons to be ranked fourth on the county’s all-time win list at 656.

No, we didn’t forget

his 14 years as Oceanside’s athletic director, a job with countless demands and much fewer backslaps.

Instead, Barrett reflects on kicking back in lurching vehicles with no seat belts and zero bad vibes. Where the destination was always the same, that special place where sports brings people together for all the right rea-

sons. “I like to think of all the rides in all those yellow school buses with all the different teams over all the years,’’ Barrett said. “There must have been thousands of those, and that’s what I’ll miss the most.’’ Barrett, 72, is tapping

CIF flag football returns to local gridiron

Sage Creek joins league; LCC eyes playoff return

As part of their Genius Project at Sage Creek High School, then-junior softball players Claire Novak and Torri Ramirez conceptualized a Bobcat girls’ flag football team.

Sitting on the outfield grass at Triton Softball Field, right after a 4-3 loss in the 2023 CIF Division III San Diego Section Championship game to Oceanside, Ramirez and Novak pulled head softball coach Tim Trudeau into the project as the inaugural head flag coach for Sage Creek.

“We were still sitting on the softball field at UC San Diego after the championship game and that’s where it all got started,” Trudeau said.

Now, seniors Ramirez and Novak are impact players on the gridiron much as they are on the softball diamond.

“Claire is a multi-sport athlete, she lives to play sports and Torri is a phenomenal scholar athlete –going to Brown to play softball,” Trudeau said. “They live to compete and that’s the biggest thing they are helping me with, showing other girls to have presence on the field, just be here, enjoy the moment and the process.”

Beyond wins and losses, 1-5 in their first six games, Trudeau’s biggest challenge is managing a team, 50 players deep, with no assistant coaches.

“Asking me to try and memorize 50 players names [has been difficult],” he said with a laugh. “Yesterday I was like ‘ladies you got to put on your name tags so I know who you are. It is very challenging but I also look at is if I wasn’t here nobody would be. Claire and Torri worked their butts off to get this going so I want it to be successful and for them to go out with a bang.”

The turnout helped establish a junior varsity squad as well, and Trudeau made the decision early not to trim the roster down.

“I couldn’t do it as a cut sport this time around,” Trudeau said. “If you are trying to build a program from scratch let’s not cut people, let’s get them invested.”

Twelve miles south down El Camino Real, La Costa Canyon has seen a surge in participation.

“Last year, we had about 70 girls in my classroom showing interest,” LCC head coach John DiGiulio said. “This year, we had 120 registered for tryouts.”

The Mavericks went 7-4 in the flag football’s inaugural CIF season, advancing to the semifinals of the Division II San Diego Section playoffs.

Coming into year two

and on the eve of the opening game on Aug. 27, DiGiulio is looking to build on an already strong footing.

“They [the players] came in with a solid football foundation,” DiGiulio said. “Several of them played growing up playing in the local recreational flag football leagues. They knew some of the terminology and basic offensive and defensive sets.”

This hasn’t been the default for every coach in North County.

“Some [players] haven’t played catch with a football a ton in their life,” said San Dieguito Academy head coach Darrin Brown. “Understanding the game – I can’t just say your running a hitch or a go route; It’s trial and error, if you catch better, we move you to offense if you are more athletic, we move you to defense. Our girls come in at lunchtime and we talk through things.”

Brown, the longtime head football coach at La Costa Canyon, was named head man for the SDA flag on Aug. 10. Two days later, he was conducting tryouts.

Last season, SDA went 8-3 and won the San Diego Section playoffs before ending the season with a 27-18 loss to Calexico.

Brown, who coached NFL player David Quessenberry and NFL head coach Kevin O’Connell at LCC, now coaches his daughter, senior wide receiver Joie, the

team’s leading touchdown scorer in 2023.

“It’s pretty cool,” he said.

Key players returning this season for the Mustangs include second-team all-leaguers Mia Pullman, Mackenzie Howard, Rowan McFadden and Mally Ott.

“It’s a great sport,” Brown said. “We went from 30 or 40 teams last year to 80 in the county.”

Up north in Solana Beach, Santa Fe Christian is preparing its second season of flag football under second-year head coach Sona Robinson.

In addition to implementing more structure and new concepts based on last season, Robinson is receiving additional input from the boys’ varsity football team, namely, head coach

Jon Wallace and pass game coordinator Drew Brees.

Team captain and quarterback Haidyn Lorenzen, who returns as the Eagles’ signal caller, will undoubtedly benefit from the brain trust of Wallace and Brees, the latter of whom guided the New Orleans Saints to their first and only Super Bowl victory.

“I’m super excited to see our team compete and have fun,” said Doug Miller, Santa Fe Christian’s athletic director. “The energy is high on the team. The girls have a lot of athletic talent and are all smiles all the time.”

Miller said the Eagles, with a roster of just 22 players, defeated Point Loma in a preseason scrimmage, showing that they can compete with bigger schools.

One of the biggest obstacles for coaches across North County, however, is competing sports and field space.

“A lot of my girls play club soccer,” said Cathedral Catholic head coach Ryan Wiegand. “Depending on the team they play for, they act like they own the girls.

‘You have to come to these practices or you aren’t playing in these tournaments.’

My philosophy is to play as many sports as you possibly can until you can’t play them anymore.” Competing sports and field space have been the biggest obstacles for coaches across North County.

“A lot of my girls play club soccer,” Cathedral Catholic head coach Ryan Wiegand said. “Depending on the team they play for they act like they own the girls.

‘You have to come to these practices or you aren’t playing in these tournaments.’

My philosophy is play as many sports as you possibly can until you can’t play them anymore.”

“We have two football fields and we are practicing on the baseball field right now because we have so many teams: four football teams, three field hockey teams, two flag football teams,” he added.

One hundred nine girls came out this year for the Dons, and with only 44 available jerseys, Wiegand had the unenviable task of

making 65 cuts.

“The turn out was amazing I wish we could keep more girls, it’s just a numbers game,” he said. “[tryouts] were three days of multiple hours running around on the field trying to figure out who could do what. In flag football there are three main skills: pulling a flag, being fast and catching a football.”

Coming off a 13-3 season and a deep playoff run, the Dons offensive engine is quarterback Sinalei Talataina. The senior, an Arizona commit, doubles as a corner infielder with a heavy bat on the softball team.

“She showed up late to tryouts last year,” Wiegand said. “Thank God she did because we don’t do as well as we did without her. Our season will go as far as she takes us. She does it for fun but she’s good.”

Torrey Pines, on the heels of a 16-1 season, remains the team to beat in North County. The Falcons opened the season on August 23 with a 12-6 victory over Del Norte.

But with the growth of the sport, the competition is wide open.

“North County was a little slow to the game last year,” Wiegand said. “I sent out an email looking for three JV games last week and within 30 minutes, I filled the schedule. So many schools are looking for games.”

builder’s remedy projects, has fought back, arguing that the law does not apply in this situation. After the city denied multiple project submittals, Lazier sued the city in February in San Diego County Superior Court.

In March, builder’s remedy prevailed in a Los Angeles Superior Court ruling against the small city of La Cañada Flintridge. The ruling stated that the city violated housing law by refusing to process an application for an affordable housing project that was submitted before the city’s Housing Element was in compliance.

The city has since appealed the ruling in California’s 2nd Appellate District Court. If the appellate court upholds the lower court’s decision, it could set a precedent for other cities like Del Mar.

On Aug. 21, a Seaside Ridge representative said upcoming hearings in their Del Mar lawsuit would be postponed pending the out-

hard enough.

Council members expressed dismay over the situation, questioning both Affirmed Housing and CONAM representatives during the meeting. The representatives indicated that the incident was under investigation.

Michelle Sites, regional vice president for CONAM, said the company was unaware of the door security issues and was looking into reinforcing the hardware to prevent future problems. She also mentioned plans to increase the height of the emergency access gate.

When questioned about the office attendant’s absence, Sites said that only one person works at both locations, starting at the Harding site where she lives before arriving at the Oak site later in the day. Sites added that the employee had called in that morning to report she would be late.

Jonathan Taylor, vice president of asset management for Affirmed Housing, noted that Stealth Monitoring uses newer video moni-

come of the case.

“We requested this continuance to give time for the La Cañada Flintridge case to play out and to give the city of Del Mar another chance to reconsider its position before the courts decide for them,” said Seaside Ridge spokesperson, Darren Pudgil. “The final determination of the suit against La Cañada Flintridge could have far-reaching impacts. Not only could it have a sub-

toring technology that has been effective in the past.

“In this particular case… we’re investigating to find out what the problem was and what happened,” Taylor said.

Council members, however, were not satisfied with the explanations provided by both Sites and Taylor.

“This new technology is not working at all,” said Councilmember Teresa Acosta. “Some of the statements are very frustrating — we see it’s not working, and we want to make sure you see it so that you can make the change and we can continue to work with you to fix this because this is a big problem.”

Councilmember Carolyn Luna echoed this frustration.

“I’m tired of playing this whack-a-mole game,” Luna said. “Something has to change.”

Councilmember Melanie Burkholder, who appeared visibly upset, described Windsor Pointe as “a stain on the fabric of Carlsbad,” expressing disappointment with both the county’s response and the answers provided by Affirmed Hous-

ment at the time a complete preliminary application … is submitted and ‘deemed complete.’”

Similarly to the city of La Cañada Flintridge, Del Mar did not have a certified Housing Element at the time when the Seaside Ridge project was proposed. Del Mar obtained certification from the state Housing and Community Development Department in June 2023, around eight months after the project was submitted.

development standards applied to other projects.

City officials also claimed that the project application changed substantially over the months.

Del Mar and Seaside Ridge developers also disagree on the issue of rezoning. Years prior, the 929 Border Ave. property was identified as one of several backup sites to be rezoned for housing if the city was unable to find sufficient areas to meet their housing numbers.

fore this rezoning had taken place. They cited existing law that requires cities that miss the statutory deadline for bringing their Housing Element into compliance by a year or more to rezone certain sites for affordable housing.

stantial bearing on our project, but also many others throughout California.”

Del Mar officials did not respond to a request for comment from The Coast News about the postponement or the La Cañada Flintridge decision.

The Los Angeles Superior Court ruling concluded that the builder’s remedy applies “if the local agency does not have a substantially compliant housing ele-

ing and CONAM.

In a 4-0 vote, with Mayor Keith Blackburn recusing himself due to ties with a similarly named company, the City Council directed the city manager to review the agreements with Affirmed Housing and explore the possibility of removing CONAM. The city manager was also asked to investigate the cost of providing additional security services between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m., ensuring 24/7 onsite security.

City Manager Scott Chadwick said he would present an amended management plan by October 22.

Despite calls from some residents to either relocate or shut down Windsor Pointe, City Attorney Cindie K. McMahon said there are no feasible legal grounds to close the project.

City officials have denied that the builder’s remedy applies to this project, partially because Seaside Ridge’s application was never deemed “complete” due to missing materials, including rezoning, Local Coastal Program Amendment, coastal development permit, and conditional use permit applications.

Seaside Ridge has stated that these application materials are not necessary, as the project’s affordable units and the builder’s remedy law prevent them from having to comply with local

To prevent this rezone, the state said the city would need to reach an affordable housing agreement with the Del Mar Fairgrounds for the development of 61 units on their property by April 2024. The two parties did reach an exclusive negotiating rights agreement by the deadline, saving the city from having to rezone the other sites at this point.

However, Seaside Ridge claims that this has no bearing on their project, and that HCD made a mistake in certifying the city’s 6th Cycle Housing Element be-

Complicating things further is the fact that last month, the Fairgrounds board voted to pause all affordable housing discussions with Del Mar until the City Council formally opposes a proposed rail route that would run through the Fairgrounds property.

“While we are supportive of housing at the fairgrounds, that proposal now appears to be in jeopardy,” said Pudgil. “Seaside Ridge, on the other hand, is readyto-go and would be completed far sooner than the fairgrounds proposal — several years sooner, in fact.”

According to Pudgil, the two parties will still appear in court for a scheduled hearing in October, but proceedings after that will be delayed until the spring.

GOLDEN AGE OF AIR TRAVEL

At the busy New Chitose Airport in Hokkaido, Japan, everything came to a screeching halt on Aug. 17 after a pair of scissors went missing from a store near the boarding gates, the BBC reported.

The airport canceled 36 flights and delayed more than 200 others, leaving hundreds of travelers doing repeat security checks. Flights eventually resumed, but the scissors weren’t found until the next day — at the store where they went missing.

Social media users were strikingly complimentary and upbeat about the delays, though: “This incident showcased the

safety of Japanese aviation,” one posted. [BBC, 8/19/2024]

UNCLEAR ON THE CONCEPT

— An Applebee’s restaurant in Portage, Indiana, became the site of a scuffle on Aug. 2, USA Today reported. According to the Portage Police Department, officers arrived in response to a report of a verbal disturbance. There they found Shawneesha Cobbs, 28, who had been loudly arguing with the store manager. Cobbs’ companions were under the impression that the restaurant’s $15.99 allyou-can-eat deal applied to the whole group, and when the manager explained that the deal was per person, Cobbs said the menu didn’t specify that. (It did.)

The rabble-rouser then verbally assaulted another couple leaving the restaurant; that’s when she was

placed under arrest and charged with disorderly conduct. [USA Today, 8/18/2024]

— Jeff Daniels lookalike Mayor Benji Cranford of Thomson, Georgia, was arrested on Aug. 14 after a grand jury indicted him for allegedly supplying a 750 ml bottle of Seagram’s Extra Dry Gin to prisoners on a roadside work crew, WRDW-TV reported.

The indictment said Cranford bought the bottle on June 4 and left it in a ditch along the path of the work crew from the Jefferson County Correctional Institution.

Cranford was charged with furnishing prohibited items to inmates and criminal attempt to commit a felony. He bonded out three hours later. [WRDW, 8/14/2024]

IT’S COME TO THIS

Students are headed back to school at H.E.

Charles Middle School in El Paso, Texas, with a fresh restriction on the clothes they can wear, KVIA-TV reported on Aug. 2.

Principal Nick DeSantis sent a letter to families stating that students would no longer be able to wear “black tops with black bottoms,” saying the look can be “associated with depression and mental health issues and/or criminality.”

Sarah Venegas, executive principal for the district, backed DeSantis up: Students will be allowed to wear only blue jeans or khaki pants.

Some parents don’t agree: “I don’t think we should be grouping, and red-flagging kids that just like to wear black,” said Stephanie Rascon.

Mental health expert Krista Wingate suggested that educators might instead “be looking out for different signs of stress or ... anxiety.” [KVIA, 8/2/2024]

out, and there’s no tip-toeing around his hemming and hawing. For the guy in jersey No. 14, who spent his life making a zillion ingame decisions, this one was a mind-bender.

Barrett was the same coach in 2024 as he was in 1978, one who put wind under his players’ wings, even those for whom EGR was more prevalent than RBI or ERA.

EGR?

a felony for people who steal less than $950 if they have two or more prior theft-related convictions, although a third theft charge could be reduced to a misdemeanor (and the fourth conviction would remain a felony); -- allow stolen property values from multiple thefts to be combined to warrant a felony charge if the total exceeds $950; -- allow for an enhanced penalty if an offender steals, damages or destroys prop-

erty via organized theft (with two or more offenders) or by causing losses of $50,000 or greater; -- add fentanyl to the list of hard drugs; -- legalize stricter penalties for drug dealers whose actions result in death or serious injury, and warn them of potential murder charges if continued trafficking results in fatalities similar to the warnings issued in driving under the influence cases; and -- establish a classification that gives those with two prior hard-drug posses-

“Government’s number-one responsibility is to provide safe communities where families and businesses can thrive,’’ Desmond said. “Without safety we don’t have a functioning society.’’

“I do not want to put everybody in jail,’’ he said, adding the intent is to help people. “We can’t continue to live this way. There’s gotta be consequences.’’

During a public hearing, those for and against the Prop 36 resolution had their say. Stephan told supervisors that Prop 47 featured some good policies that Prop 36 would retain while also fixing the features that harm business owners, communities and employees.

She mentioned a perfume business owner whose security cameras were smashed numerous times by thieves and had given up calling law enforcement about a suspect who stole under $950 worth of property.

Stephan also said she spoke with a 20-year-old Ulta store employee who doesn’t feel comfortable at her job because the workplace is no longer safe.

Society speaks through its laws, and “when our laws basically decriminalize activity that’s harmful to these businesses small and large, it is no longer working,’’ Stephan said.

“It’s bittersweet,’’ Barrett said. “Coaching is an all-in business, and you have to be into 100%. My mind tells me I can still go out there and do it like it was 25 years ago.’’

But a keen coach, which Barrett is, knows there’s always a counterpoint to contemplate.

“My body and other circumstances tell me otherwise,’’ he said.

Barrett speaks from his soul, one that he doesn’t mind sharing in showing its vulnerability and a willingness to help others. He’s a man of strong faith, dabbles as a preacher, and he can pluck a guitar.

A chorus that he never tires of humming is of gratitude.

Barrett, who played baseball and football at Oceanside and MiraCosta College, had an impact on numerous students and players. They’re the ones stopping him on the street, ducking in his office, or giving him the baseball whis-

“Extra grace required,’’ Barrett said, with a chuckle. “The amazing thing is that some of the guys with EGR are the ones that come back and are the most appreciative.

“Now they’re husbands and raising families and they tell me they’re the man they are because of me. I am so humbled and honored to have a part in that. But God gave me a good assignment.’’

Maybe it was divine intervention when Barrett started coaching the grandsons of his former players. That’s a long arch of baseball, and now Barrett dives headfirst into what’s next. But not before serving as a springboard of wisdom for so many, including those in Barrett’s English classes.

“He was more than a coach; he was a father figure to all of us,’’ said Jose Hernandez, 39, who was a catcher on two of Barrett’s CIF finalist teams. “It was the way he interacted with everyone and made them feel wanted. He knew how to get the best out of each athlete and student.”

Barrett will help the baseball program, and then there are those citrus trees at his Oceanside home he’s neglected. Instead of tending to them, he’s been revealing his green thumb at Oceanside’s baseball field.

There’s a to-do list on the horizon, and Barrett is waving that home, too. But first, he thanks the wide spectrum of players who once called him “coach.”

“It’s pretty emotional that so many people have reached out to me,’’ Barrett said. “Those are forever relationships.”

Founded by Camille Hastings, the school has become a cornerstone of the community, inspiring over 700 students weekly with her passion for music. Camille’s vision came to life when she first entered the building and heard music playing, and that same enthusiasm continues to drive the school today.

Walking with a purpose along Camino de Santiago

One route. Two journeys.

That’s how MiraCosta College professor Leola Powers describes the six days that she and longtime friend Christie Pickel spent walking the Camino de Santiago in Spain.

“We had seen the ‘The Way’ and said, ‘We should definitely do that sometime,’”

Powers said, referring to the 2010 film starring Martin Sheen, who walks the Camino after his adult son dies. “That was 10 years ago, and we finally did it in April.”

Camino de Santiago (translation: Way of St. James) is a network of trails traversing France, Spain and Portugal (the longest is 500 miles) that meets in the city of Santiago de Compostela in northwestern Spain.

A mix of legend, religion, politics and Hollywood has made the Camino a destination for pilgrims since the Middle Ages. Wayfarers come to contemplate, meditate, make decisions, embrace, let go, remember, forget, accept, reject, feel fulfilled and find answers.

“My main reason was to help me heal from loss of

scenic mountain country, happy and helpful people, and animals – lots of animals.

my daughter in 2019,” Pickel said in a phone call from her home in Asheville, N.C. “Erin was 18 and special needs and the best teacher we ever had. Her impact on people was amazing.”

Powers walked the Camino to support Christie because “I felt she really wanted it and needed it. My goal was to find focus and let go of the unimportant things – to get rid of the clutter in my life. When you’re walking the Camino five or six hours a day, it’s just you and your

thoughts. You get lost in your mind and in the countryside.”

Powers and Pickel met as students at Middle Tennessee State University in Murfreesboro 35 years ago and have remained close despite the distance between their homes. They decided to use a tour company to set the itinerary and transport their luggage each day from hotel to hotel.

“I didn’t want to sleep in a tent,” Pickel admitted.

The women began their Camino journey in Sarria

and walked 72 miles in six days.

“The first day was the longest,” Pickel said. “Fourteen miles. The weather was atrocious. High winds, pouring rain, mud and muck. We giggled and laughed and made our way through it.”

“I took photos of all the surfaces we walked on,” Powers added. “Asphalt, concrete, creek, dirt, grass, gravel, pasture, pebble and mud – lots of mud.”

But there also were the picture-postcard villages,

“We were walking into Lestedo on day two and a farmer was moving his cattle from one field to another,” Pickel said. “A few Camino pilgrims on bicycles came through and spooked the cattle. We helped to guide the cattle to the other field, which was directly across from our lodging for that evening. I grew up raising cattle, so it was absolutely perfect for me.”

The next morning, the women walked out of their hotel as a flock of sheep came through.

“We walked in with the cattle and out with the sheep,” Powers said.

The longtime friends

covered some of the miles together and some alone. They arrived in Satiago de Compostela Plaza separately, but soon met to celebrate their accomplishment and talk about the experience.

Pickel made a donation in daughter Erin’s name to the Pilgrim House Welcome Center, “a place for pilgrims to find respite from their walk and take time to reflect… on their Camino, on life and…on what may lay ahead.”

“For anyone even remotely considering walking the Camino, do it!” Powers said. “It will not be what you expected and more than you could’ve imagined. Everyone’s experience is different. There is no right or wrong way to experience the Camino.”

Tree doctor wins ‘best of’ award two years in a row

Since 1985, Russell Bowman has been delighting residents of San Diego County with his plant and tree expertise.

So, it’s no wonder Bowman Plant & Tree Care Specialists have been named the San Diego Union-Tribune Community Press’ “Best of North County” voters’ poll for tree and plant care for a 2nd year in a row!

He is lovingly referred to as the San Diego “tree doctor extraordinaire” by his clients, Bowman is known for transforming sickly trees and gardens into Disneyesque wonderlands.

Using his own proprietary blend of organic biological nutrition, Bowman feeds plants at night — a technique he picked up during his time as a horticulturist at Disneyland.

“When you feed plants at night, they have enough time to absorb the nutrition, before it is degraded by the sun’s rays,” he said. “That’s why, when most people are winding down their days, eating dinner, and going to bed, we are out feeding plants and trees.”

He’s done more than just care for sick plants and trees, he’s revolutionized both residential and commercial properties by the use of his organic fertilizer

tems.

“Collections like ours play a crucial role in preserving these specimens for future research, ensuring that we can continue to learn from them for generations to come.’’

The fish is undergoing preservation to be added to the Marine Vertebrate Collection at Scripps, one of the largest collections of deep-sea fish in the world.

According to Scripps, given the immense local and global interest, the Birch Aquarium has opened a temporary exhibit with more information on oarfish.

tanks that inject his magical formula through your irrigation systems.

In a very short time, this program pays back through reduced water bills.

“When you give your body proper nutrition, it affects your overall health and boosts your immunity, so you don’t get sick. The same is true for plants and trees.”

Bowman feeds complete “nutrition delivery biology” derived from earthworm castings to replenish the missing healthy soil biology.

This works with a client’s current irrigation system so that each time the landscaping is watered, the needed soil biology is replenished.

“This is the secret to keeping your property looking like a five-star resort.”

Russell is quick to point out that healthy plants and trees are also environmentally friendly. A healthy plant will be more efficient at photosynthesizing sunlight into oxygen and the healthy soil/compost helps bring down uses far less water.

He donates his time and expertise for the trees for the Point Loma Association and gardens at the Rock Church in Point Loma, Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery, the YMCA, Barnes Tennis Cen-

ter, Chili’s Restaurants, Stone Brewery in Escondido, and San Diego Botanic Garden.

He also served with the San Diego Rose Society in Balboa Park for 12 years.

“My calling is to beautify the earth, making trees and plants healthy,” The Master Gardener taught me everything I know. I’ve learned that when you love something, it’s not something you have to do; it’s something you want to do.”

To learn more about Bowman and his services, please contact Russell at 858-499-9417. He provides tree and plant nutritional care as well as ongoing routine garden maintenance.

Russell Bowman abides by all applicable state laws and requirements and does not perform any services that require a licensed contractor.
