DEL MAR — The family of a special needs child is breathing a sigh of relief after the San Dieguito Union High School District board finally approved a settlement agreement on Monday, ending a lengthy legal battle over the child’s school placement.

Under federal law, school districts are required to ensure a free and appropriate public education for all students, regardless of special needs, in the least restrictive environment possible. One way to achieve this is by placing a student at a nonpublic school (NPS) that can offer more specialized services.

For two and a half years, San Dieguito refused the Ogawa family’s request to place their teenage daughter at The Winston School in Del Mar, going against the advice of the rest of her Individualized Education Program (IEP) team and forcing the family to pay out-of-pocket for her tuition.

The settlement on Monday comes just weeks after the district sought to escalate litigation in the case, with the attorneys filing a reconsideration motion for an April 23 ruling from the U.S. Southern California District Court.

This federal ruling upheld a previous state ruling in the family’s favor from August 2022 and ordered the district to reimburse the family for tuition and attorney’s fees.

Woman arrested in crash

Brooks-Fratus, 52, faces felony hit-run in fatal collision

By Laura Place

DEL

MAR

— A woman is facing felony charges after crashing her car into a tree and another parked vehicle, killing the man in her passenger seat, and leaving the scene, the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department reported.

A preliminary investigation reveals that Elizabeth Brooks-Fratus, 52, was driving north in the 2000 block of Coast Boulevard in Del Mar just before midnight on June 18 when her 2019 Maserati Gran Turismo left the road, struck a parked pickup truck and collided with a tree.

Deputies who arrived on the scene found a gravely injured 62-year-old man in the passenger seat of the crashed Maserati, and the driver had left the scene.

The man was rushed to the hospital after deputies attempted life-saving measures at the scene, but he later died from his injuries.

The decedent’s identity is being withheld pending notification of family, according to the Sheriff’s Department.

The woman was located shortly after and taken into custody and received treatment at Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla for injuries suffered during the crash, said Sgt. Jeremy Collis. Authorities did not disclose when and where she was taken into custody.

Brooks-Fratus will be booked into Las Colinas Detention Facility on charges of felony hitand-run, vehicular manslaughter and DUI-related charges.

Residents decry plans for Village Plaza rebuild

By Fiona Bork CARLSBAD

— The city’s planning commissioners once again agreed to continue a public hearing about plans to demolish and replace Carlsbad Village Plaza after a group of residents requested more time to gather evidence opposing the project.

Tooley Asset Services Company, or TASCO, owner of the 4-acre retail center home to Smart and Final, Texas Wine and Spirits, Golden Tee Cocktail Lounge, 7 Eleven and others, plans to supplant the plaza with a mixed-use development consisting of two one-story buildings.

All existing shops, except 7-Eleven, will vacate the plaza, and the buildings will be torn down, City Planner Eric Lardy previously told The Coast News.

The development, billed as sustainable and “transit-oriented,” will consist of 218 apartments, including 27 deed-restricted apartments for very low-income households and a parking structure with 350 parking spaces and electric vehicle parking. The commercial portion will feature restaurants and shops with outdoor seating.

Residents opposed to the proposal are working with Clyde Wickham, a retired engineer for the city of Carlsbad, to develop ad-

ditional evidence related to the project’s negative traffic impacts and the owner’s lack of public outreach. The group requested two more weeks to compile the information before presenting it to the Carlsbad Planning Commission.

Earlier this month, the Planning Commission voted to continue a public hearing after TASCO requested a continuance due to a lack of commissioners. Only five of the seven members of the commission were present at the June 5 meeting due to Commissioner Peter Merz’s absence and former Vice Chair Kevin Sabellico’s sudden departure to run for a San Dieguito school board seat.

The hearing will continue at the Planning Commission’s July 17 meeting.

“I’ve received a number of letters and emails from my fellow residents and I’ve given this a great deal of thought,” Chairman William Kamenjarin said during the meeting. “Out of reciprocity and considering the size of the project I would suggest tonight that we continue this, give the residents an opportunity to present what they have available. I think it’s too important not to.”

The commission’s 5-1 decision to continue the hearing follows a movement spearheaded by residents

of the plaza’s surrounding neighborhood called “Save Carlsbad Village Plaza.”

Martin Danner, a Carlsbad resident who started a petition that has amassed more than 1,600 signatures since April, said the proposed project would demolish Smart and Final, the only grocery store and pharmacy in or near the Village.

According to Danner, 67, and others, the move would create a “food desert,” imposing a disproportionate burden on seniors who would no longer be able to easily access groceries and medications.

The petition also states that the project will destroy local jobs and the city’s only remaining neighborhood hardware store and reduce retail space by 77%, making the cost of new retail spaces “prohibitively high.”

“I depend on the shopping center a lot because it’s really the only one I can get to on my bicycle,” Danner said. “And to lose it would mean that I would have to get a car and go drive to similar services elsewhere. The grocery store, the hardware store, the pharmacy, the cleaners. It’s a disaster for a lot of people.”

During the meeting, Danner said Whickham is working on “innovative

Police: Body of missing hiker found

By Samantha Mason REGION

— After 24 hours of search and rescue efforts, authorities believe they located the body of a hiker who went missing Sunday morning on Black Mountain.

Diem Le Nguyen, 50, went hiking with a group on the morning of June 23 at Nighthawk Trail near 9711 Oviedo Way.

At 8 a.m., the group decided to turn around at the halfway point, but Le Nguyen decided to continue on alone, according to San Diego Police Department Lt. Daniel Meyer.

Le Nguyen is 5 feet 1 inch tall and 105 pounds. She was last seen wearing a black shirt with a pink heart on the front, black pants, a brown hat, sunglasses and a backpack. The SDPD searched the area and utilized search dogs over the weekend.

At 9:15 a.m. on Monday, the body of an Asian female was found a quarter mile from the nearest intersection, SDPD reported.

The San Diego County Medical Examiner’s Office has taken over the case and is working to confirm the identity.

Around approximately 9:30 a.m., Le Nguyen reportedly notified the group that she had reached the trail’s end. Around 10:08 a.m., the woman made a distress call to her family, saying she was “extremely hot and needed water,” Meyer told media outlets.

Court nixes taxation safeguards initiative

By Garvin Walsh

In a unanimous opinion published on June 20, the California Supreme Court made clear that the people of this state are not sovereign but rather subservient to the governing class. The state government’s revenue-raising powers are not to be subject to broad constraints instituted by voter initiative.

The court rejected the already-qualified ballot initiative known as the Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act (TPA). The Secretary of State has been ordered not to put the measure on the ballot. The opinion can be accessed via this link: https://bit.ly/4cvuKBO.

The most significant element of the TPA, intended to preserve taxpayer protections already enacted via initiative and to constrain the growth of the tax burden, would have required a majority of the electorate to approve tax increases or additional fees and charges.

The court’s rejection of the measure relies on distinctions it has previously drawn between the meanings of the words “revise” and “amend.” It echoed an 1894 holding that “the provisions contained [in the Constitution] for its revision indicate the will of the people that the underlying principles upon which it rests, as well as the substantial entirety of the instrument, shall be of a like permanent and abiding nature.

On the other hand, the significance of the term “amendment” implies such an addition or change within the lines of the original instrument as will effect an improvement, or better carry out the purpose for which it was framed.”

The court found that “[t]he TPA would shift so much authority, in such a significant manner, that it would substantially alter our framework of govern-

ment…[accomplishing] such far-reaching changes in the nature of our basic governmental plan as to amount to a revision” of the constitution.

Some comfort may be found in the holding that “[w]hether any individual component of the TPA would constitute a revision standing alone is a question we do not answer here.” A narrow, targeted measure might enable the people to impose further limits on taxation analogous to those of Proposition 13.

The decision also rests on other grounds, including a purported shift of power between the legislative and executive branches, the notion that the proposed measure would impede critical government operations, constraints upon the legislature’s ability to delegate tasks to various agencies, and interference with the administrative process of local fee setting and collection.

While the reasoning behind the court’s opinion is transparent, elements within it warrant dispute or criticism. The lack of a dissenting opinion is also troubling — does that reflect wisdom in the decision or the fact that the court consists of uniformly liberal appointees? Six of the seven justices were appointed by our most recent Democrat governors, with one appointed by former Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.

It is clear from this decision that when it comes to revenue-raising, the people of California (the “electors”) are subordinate to the will of the legislature, not the other way around. While the Constitution asserts that “[a]ll political power is inherent in the people,” the present obstacles to exercising that power, underscored by this decision, render that statement an empty promise.

As a practical matter, the meaning of the court’s

Deadly contents of wildfire smoke

The next time authorities issue a smoke advisory telling residents of California areas previously unaffected by wildfires to stay inside with closed windows and doors until a smoke cloud passes by or dissipates, do it.

That’s the essential message of an authoritative new study that appeared just as this year’s fire season got started, the report indicating death tolls from smoke clouds loosed by past blazes have been exponentially higher than previously reported.

up to 10 times more harmful to people than other sources of air pollution like auto smog or smokestack emissions.

rejection of the TPA is that the achievement of constraints on the legislature’s taxing power will require a two-thirds vote of both houses of the legislature to either 1) put a measure on the ballot for approval by the voters, or 2) hold a constitutional convention, the product of which would also require voter approval.

Let that sink in: meaningful constraint on the taxing power of the legislature will require a supermajority of both the Senate and Assembly to voluntarily diminish their most precious political power. Don’t hold your breath.

As always, the only way for the people to exercise their sovereign power is at the ballot box, infrequent occasions involving costly campaigns that depend upon the favor of both fierce partisans and low-information voters.

Meanwhile, between elections, the legislative process continues behind the scenes, corrupted by the legislature’s self-serving impulse to tax and spend, by the financial support of rent-seekers and lobbyists, and by the lazy impulse to indulge ill-conceived and incompetent interventions concocted by the administrative state.

In California, both houses of the legislature suffer from Democrat supermajorities, lately dominated by the progressive wing of the party. Thus, the constructive give-and-take between parties that might yield better and fewer laws does not occur. The left’s characteristic impulse to expand the government’s power and influence continues unabated.

There is only one way to overcome this cancerous condition: throw the bums out. Deprive the Democrats of their supermajorities by electing enough Republican legislators for the GOP to become a partner in the legislative process.

In fact, the number directly or indirectly killed so far by smoke turns out to be far higher than fatalities from the flames themselves. It’s high enough to match almost precisely the human costs of illicit fentanyl consumption. One difference: The state now offers antidotes for fentanyl poisoning, but there is no easy remedy for the unseen and previously unattributed toll of California’s many fires.

Fentanyl deaths have made lurid headlines, but smoke-related maladies and deaths are sneaking up on Californians who usually regard inhaling smoke as a mere nuisance. It turns out the health effects of wildfires are far worse than that.

So says the report just published in the journal ScienceAdvances, published by the American Association for the Advancement of Science, where UCLA researchers found at least 52,000 persons died over a very recent 11year period from effects of tiny particulate matter left behind in their lungs after inhaling wildfire smoke (https://www.science. org/doi/10.1126/sciadv. adl1252).

That’s an average of almost 5,000 persons per year felled by after-effects of fires started by lightning, arsonists and criminally negligent utility companies, which have already been forced to pay more than $15 billion for physical damages from blazes caused by their faulty equipment.

The UCLA research, from the Luskin Center for Innovation in the school’s Environmental Health Sciences department, raises the suspicion that recent deaths may have been even more numerous than the report indicates, because it covers only the years 2008 through 2018, ending just as the severe wildfire epidemic of 2017 to 2022 was getting started.

“It’s just a major issue at the climate-health nexus,” said Rachel Connolly, the project director.

The report says wildfires produce toxic types of particulates, some of them carcinogenic, that can be

Very small particles floating in smoke can affect both hearts and lungs, causing illness, hospitalizations and premature deaths, wrote the researchers. This can spur temporary problems like coughing, but also potentially fatal effects like emphysema and lung cancer.

Some scientists wonder if wildfires are behind a recent nationwide uptick in adenocarcinomas formed in linings of the lungs, also known as non-small cell lung cancers, in persons who have never smoked. The cause of this increase has not previously been explained.

Dangers from smoke-induced disease do not figure to reduce much soon, the UCLA researchers imply.

What the study calls “questionable wildfire management practices” can combine with longer wildfire seasons to increase “chances of wildfires spreading…toxic smoke,” the researchers said.

What’s more, the tiny particles in smoke can threaten people living far from the actual fires. When winds blew smoke clouds over urban centers like the San Francisco Bay area, San Diego and Los Angeles during the last three years, some people there got sick because the smoke does not lose its particulate content quickly while it travels, the study indicates.

No one knows yet precisely how many long-term illnesses will result from the palls of smoke that hung over San Francisco and the East Bay hills both in 2022 and last summer. Which gives rise to other questions: If serious illnesses that can take many months to manifest arise a year or more after a smoke cloud has hung over a major population center, are those who started the fires behind that smoke liable for health care expenses of the affected? And how can patients prove the smoke cloud was the direct cause of their health problems?

These are dilemmas the courts, filled with judges and lawyers who never studied epidemiology, will eventually decide. No one can yet know if their decisions will be fair or even well informed.

Crews extinguish Torrey Pines-area brush fire

Thousands forced to evacuate near Del Mar Heights

By Laura Place & Claire Strong

DEL

MAR —

A suburban wildfire that charred roughly 20 open acres near Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve, forcing thousands of people from their homes as ground and airborne crews worked to quell the flames, is out today.

Two firefighters were hospitalized with heat exhaustion on Tuesday but have since been released and are recovering at home, according to the San Diego Fire-Rescue Department.

No structures were damaged in the blaze.

Authorities say a spot fire — near the site of a roughly one-acre vegetation blaze that crews had subdued earlier in the day at approximately 10:30 a.m. — reignited about 3 p.m. outside containment lines near the intersection of Carmel Valley Road and Del Mar Scenic Parkway.

At around 4:15 p.m. on Tuesday, San Diego fire officials said individuals were being ordered to evacuate in the area east of North Torrey Pines Road and west of Interstate 5 between Carmel Valley Road to the south and Del Mar Heights Road to the north.

An evacuation warning was also issued for the Del

Mar Heights area. The Del Mar Fairgrounds was designated as a temporary evacuation site.

San Diego Fire spokesperson Mónica Muñoz said during a press conference on Tuesday that by 4:50 p.m., the fire had grown to roughly 19 acres. A plume of smoke was visible over Interstate 5 and most of the neighborhoods in Del Mar.

The Harder family, who live on Via Aprilia, immediately started preparing to leave home after receiving

an evacuation notification from authorities.

“We got an evacuation alert on our phone and through a helicopter message,” said 13-year-old Simone Harder. “We’re packing clothes and spraying the rooftop with water. We’re just trying to get ready.”

Simone's mother, Michelle Harder, said the family of four, including their two rescue dogs, was preparing to spend the night at a hotel.

“We drove past the fire

and saw it raging. The sky was gray with thick smoke. It was so bad," Michelle said.

On nearby Mango Drive, Lisa St. John bundled her three dogs and cat into her car after being told to evacuate. St John urged her husband, who was at work then, not to return home.

"I told him there was no point in coming back, so we’re just waiting," St. John told The Coast News on Tuesday afternoon. "I drove by the area earlier, but we still couldn’t get back in.”

St. John said she wasn’t sure where the couple would stay if they couldn't return home.

Others in the area chose to shelter in place and remain home.

Jezabel Boo and her daughter live on Caminito Verdugo and could smell the smoke and hear the helicopters flying overhead, but wanted to wait before making a decision on whether to leave.

“We’re OK,” Boo said. “We're not in danger, but

it’s better to be safe than sorry. I’m responsible for my daughter and pet, so we might go to a friend’s house for a few hours and see after that.”

Another Mango Drive resident, Jen Massara and her family were left unable to leave their house after deciding not to evacuate earlier in the day.

“You can’t get in or out of the neighborhood,” Massara said, realizing

Jobless rate beats US figure

By City News Service REGION

— The unemployment rate in San Diego County dropped considerably to 3.6% in May, down from a revised 4.1% in April, and above the year-ago estimate of 3.3%, according to figures released last week by the state Employment Development Department.

Last month’s rate compares with an unadjusted unemployment rate of 4.5% for California and 3.7% for the nation during the same period.

Between April 2024 and May 2024, total nonfarm employment increased from 1,562,500 to 1,566,100, a gain of 3,600 jobs. Agricultural employment added 300 jobs.

Leisure and hospitality led monthly employment gains with 2,600 jobs added. The majority of this increase was seen in accommodation and food services, which grew by 1,900.

According to the EDD, five additional sectors saw improvements in employment. Government jobs increased by 1,100, with 91% of that coming on the state government level. Trade, Transportation and Utilities, financial activities and other services each posted a gain of 300 jobs, with construction adding 100 new jobs.

On the negative side, three industry sectors saw month-over losses, losing a total of 1,100 jobs. Professional and business services saw the largest drop, falling by 600 jobs. The loss was evenly split between professional, scientific, and technical services and administrative and support and waste management and remediation services, according to the EDD. Private education and health services fell by 400 and information jobs decreased by 100.

Compared to last May, total nonfarm employment increased by 6,900 and agricultural employment grew by 100.

These gains were led by private education and health services, with 11,400 jobs added, 88% of which came in the sub-sector of health care and social services.

Six other sectors saw gains: Leisure and hospitality with 4,700; government with 4,000; and the remaining 4,200 split between construction, other services, trade, transportation, and utilities, and mining and logging.

Four sectors saw year-over employment losses: Professional and business services with 10,400 lost; manufacturing with 4,200; and the financial activities and information sectors each posting a loss of 1,400 jobs.

Vista boasts new fleet

By Laura Place

— The Vista Fire Department has acquired six new fire engines and a new paramedic ambulance, which are expected to enhance the department’s emergency response capabilities and equip firefighters and paramedics with better tools.

Four of the engines are specifically for structural firefighting and paramedic response, while one is intended for fighting smaller fires and fire mop-ups, and another is tailored for brush fires.

Vista fire personnel, city officials and community members celebrated the arrival of the new equipment on Thursday at the Vista Civic Center. Residents could also see the engines up close, speak with fire personnel, and learn about the trucks’ capabilities.

“We can get to calls more efficiently, and faster. We absolutely need it, and absolutely appreciate everything you guys have done,” said Vista Fire Fighters Association Local 4107 President Frank Wirtz, addressing city officials.

According to Vista Deputy Fire Chief Robbie Ford, two of the engines, the paramedic ambulance and the brush fire engine, were purchased as part of the department’s apparatus replacement schedule. Two other fire engines were purchased “out of sequence” to replace other engines in reserve status from 2003.

One patrol engine was also purchased as an additional piece of equipment. The total cost of the new equipment totaled $4.7 million, paid through the city’s Apparatus Replacement Funds.

“The two purchased out of sequence were non-custom engines on the production line without a buyer. Vista purchased them due to a need to replace aged reserve equipment. This has created a very modern and reliable frontline and reserve fire engine fleet,” Ford said.

The two structural non-reserve engines will enter frontline service at the city’s fire stations 1 and 5. The larger engines hold between 500 and 750 gallons of water, while the smaller

engine for mop-ups holds 250 gallons of water.

Three fire personnel are assigned to each of the main fire engines, and between three and four are assigned to the brush fire engine. Two individuals are assigned to the small fire engine and the paramedic ambulance.

Mayor John Franklin emphasized that the new engines exemplify the city’s commitment to public safety and the council’s financial stewardship.

Doctor patents dyslexia program

By Samantha Nelson CARLSBAD — A Carlsbad

optometrist received a patent earlier this spring for his method of correcting dyslexia and other reading disabilities.

poor reader to properly process visual and auditory patterns.

“Public safety is our very top priority. It’s the thing that we spent twothirds of our city budget on,” Franklin said.

Fire Chief Gerard Washington, who took the helm of the city’s fire department last year, thanked city staff, fire personnel and community members for their support.

“These are the types of things that take care of our personnel — brand-new equipment, support, and training,” Washington said.

Dr. David Bloch, a local optometrist and dyslexia expert, said he discovered a key element that prevents those with dyslexia from reading properly and has created new super tools that quickly correct their reading abilities.

According to Bloch, people with dyslexia face stigma from others who believe their inability to read is because they aren’t smart — but that isn’t the case.

“Students with dyslexia already have the necessary components to read in their head, they are just in the habit of filing the information incorrectly,” Bloch said.

According to Bloch, his students can advance to the same level as their spoken vocabulary in about three months.

Dyslexia is a learning disability that includes difficulty with reading speed and comprehension, spelling and writing. Formerly known as “word blindness,” dyslexia is the most common neuro-cognitive disorder and the leading learning disability in the United States, according to Yale Center for Dyslexia and Creativity.

Reading requires auditory, visual and cognitive skills, and any issues with these skill sets can cause confusion and frustration.

While traditional reading methods use a phonetic or auditory-based approach to teaching reading, research has shown that students with dyslexia have poor phonological awareness, leaving them unable to use sound patterns to learn how to read.

According to Bloch, students with dyslexia are unable to match what they hear with what they see when interpreting text.

“It’s not about needing glasses – it’s about auditory and visual processing,” Bloch said.

Bloch’s Reading Without Limits program teaches the new patent-approved method. The program does not emphasize phonics, sight reading, picture books or verbal cues. Instead, Bloch uses a series of drills to reprogram how the brain stores and retrieves reading information.

These drills “break bad brain habits,” Bloch said, which allows an otherwise

After several years of waiting, Bloch finally received his patent for his method from the United States Patent and Trademark Office in May 2024. He is the first person to have a registered trademark in the category of consultation and treatment services for dyslexia under the name “Dyslexia Buster.” Bloch earned his patent over 160 other patent citations already on file. Bloch has several testimonials from the parents of his students who successfully went through the Reading Without Limits program.

“I was honestly at a standstill with my son,” writes Marianne in a testimonial for Bloch’s Reading Without Limits program. “We were at kindergarten reading levels even though he was in 2nd grade. His dyslexia was frustrating for him.”

According to Marianne, Bloch changed her son’s life.

“Within one month he was bringing me chapter books to read,” she writes. Bloch hopes to help people struggling with dyslexia both locally and beyond. With his new patent, he also hopes to persuade people to trust an eye doctor like himself to help their children learn how to read.

“When I first started, I didn’t necessarily want to treat dyslexia – I just wanted to help kids to read,” Bloch said. “Now I have a passion and a cure.”

Residents push for new skate bowl

By Samantha Nelson

ENCINITAS — A trio of local skateboarding retirees are working hard to convince the city to support the construction of a new public skate bowl at Moonlight Beach.

Encinitas residents Barry Blumenthal, Doug Marker and David Skinner have brought their idea to install a 5,000-squarefoot skate bowl near the state beach to the attention of the City Council and the city's Parks and Recreation staff multiple times over the last several weeks.

According to the group, their proposal has seemingly been disregarded or overlooked.

“We can’t get a response back,” Blumenthal said. “It’s been crickets so far.”

The residents are urging the city to look at other ways to attract visitors to the beach and embrace its unofficial title of "Skate Capital of the World," which its supporters say it rightfully deserves.

“Encinitas is the world’s capital of skateboarding. All the best skateboarders either come or live here – they should be embracing it like a jewel,” Marker said. “This is our sport. Someone is going to claim that title and it should be where it belongs, which is here.”

The skate bowl would also help to ease the crowds at Poods Skate Park, which can get pretty cramped for skaters at times, according to the three men who frequent the park. The group also pointed out that skateboarding is becoming a family pastime for multiple generations.

“You have grandpa, mom and the kids all out there skating,” Blumenthal said. “You have us – three retired guys – who are skateboarding and want this. The dynamics are changing.”

A new skate bowl could also attract professional skateboarders worldwide and serve as a potential location for a national or international competition like the Olympics.

“We need something iconic,” Blumenthal said. “We need to think about the next 20 to 30 years and how we will attract people here over Carlsbad or an-

New LCC athletic facility to open

The MAC is part of Prop AA bond initiative in 2012

By Fiona Bork CARLSBAD —

After 12 years of teaching physical education classes in portable classrooms, a new state-of-the-art athletics facility will open this fall at La Costa Canyon High School.

other beach town. People want to see something cool. We have the Summer Olympics in Los Angeles in 2028. It’s not a reach to say they might come out and hold a competition here."

Blumenthal said the skate bowl must include adequate seating to accommodate a large event, such as an international competition.

According to the group, the city needs to contact the county to request permission to build the skate bowl just like they did with the children’s playground in the early 2000s.

The men also plan to raise the funds privately rather than use public coffers, estimating the skate bowl will cost approximately $500,000. But the group says the city has not responded to their plans.

The Coast News contacted the city for comment. Lois Yum, a spokesperson for the city, said the city had discussed the plans with the group, but the project has not moved forward.

“Our Parks, Recreation, and Cultural Arts Department has discussed with the group and provided information on the available options,” said Lois Yum, a spokesperson for the city. “Currently, there are no official plans to proceed, and no directives have been issued to advance the project.”

Despite the apparent impasse, all three residents vowed to continue pushing the city to build a public skate bowl at Moonlight Beach.

“We’re not going away,” Marker said.

For Blumenthal, having a skate spot on the beach makes perfect sense, given the sport’s history stemming from surfing.

In the late 1940s or early 1950s, California surfers who wanted to continue surfing even when the waves were flat would attach roller-skate wheels to wooden boards that they called “sidewalk surfers” or “land surfboards” to practice their moves on the sidewalk.

“Skateboarding came from the water,” Blumenthal said. “When you’re skating here and you see the ocean, you start connecting all the dots – it’s beautiful.”

Edwin Mendoza, a communications coordinator for San Dieguito Union High School District, said the Maverick Athletic Center, or The MAC, will include PE classrooms, a turf field, an outdoor basketball court and a “cutting-edge” weight room.

The MAC is part of the $449 million Proposition AA bond initiative to upgrade the school district’s classrooms and facilities.

“This is going to be one of the premier workout facilities in San Diego County,” said Principal Justin Conn. “It is a state-of-theart facility and will be everything we need.”

Mendoza said the district gathered input from PE teachers and coaches when creating the new center.

“This top facility will open a lot of opportunities for LCC athletes,” Mendoza said in an email.

Since 2012, the district has completed 67 projects across 11 schools using funds from Prop AA, according to the SDUHSD website. Eight projects in progress will be completed by the end of the year.

John Digiulio, an LCC strength and conditioning coach for 25 years, said he is a member of a committee of parents, staff, administrators and LCC board members who helped develop the complex’s design.

Digiulio said PE classes moved into portable classrooms, which were supposed to be temporary, about 14 years ago to make room in LCC’s gym for expanding the dance studios.

Mendoza said multiple variables go into prioritizing Prop AA projects, and the LCC fitness complex is part of that list.

“It’s been a long time coming,” Digiulio said of The MAC. “I mean, I work with athletes all year and so it’s been something that I think is really needed and it’s going to be beneficial for our students and athletes.”

Digiulio said LCC’s current athletic facility and available equipment have limited coaches’ ability to train athletes, and the new center will better prepare athletes for their respective sports.

The complex will also give coaches more flexibility to train injured athletes working to return to play simultaneously with regular athletes.

“It will rival anything that exists in San Diego County from images that I’ve seen from people who have sent me and worked on projects like this in North

County, Orange County,” Digiulio said. “It’s going to be, I’d say, one of the top facilities in the county.”

Beth Crowder, the director of the LCC Foundation — an independent nonprofit whose board comprises parent volun-

teers — said the group started a fundraiser with a goal of $400,000 to help stock the new complex with exercise equipment.

According to Crowder, the nonprofit is a quarter way to its goal.

“We’ve had so many

amazing additions in the last few years,” Crowder said. “Our principal is phenomenal, and our culture is just phenomenal right now, and we just want to keep leveling up, and that’s what The MAC is going to offer.”

City asks voters to amend Prop H

By Samantha Nelson CARLSBAD —

Last week, a split majority of the City Council approved a ballot measure for the November election asking voters to increase the spending limits under Proposition H.

First adopted by Carlsbad voters in 1982, Proposition H requires voter approval on projects that involve the city spending more than $1 million to purchase or improve property.

The ballot measure will ask voters to increase the expenditure limit to $3.09 million, which is equivalent to the original $1 million threshold approved 42 years ago in today’s dollars. The measure would also add an inflation index to the limit and exempt public safety facilities — for example, a police or fire station — from the limit.

If voters approve the measure, the new limit and other changes would go into effect Jan. 1.

While all council members agreed on the public safety exemption clause of the ballot measure, Councilmember Melanie Burkholder and Councilmember Carolyn Luna felt the change to the expenditure limit didn’t do enough to convince voters to spend city coffers to get the measure on this year’s ballot.

The San Diego County Registrar of Voters esti-

According to Deputy District Attorney David Uyar, cocaine, Xanax and Delta-9-THC were among the substances found in Fish’s system following the crash.

“The Carlsbad Tomorrow Committee recommended that we raise the

in 2024 and will continue to cost more, so the raising of the limit was really just to equate it to today’s dollars,” Acosta said. “I would be happy with raising it more so we could not put some projects on the ballot that we need to get done like the $5 million Luna mentioned but we agreed and had this conversation that $3.09 million was more or less the $1 million in today’s dollars.”

Whale sightings reach all-time high

By Alex Miller OCEANSIDE

— As summer kicks into gear, whale sightings are at an all-time high along the San Diego County coastline.

According to documented observations, Oceanside Adventures, a local whale-watching company, recorded an average of 10 blue whale sightings per day and 152 total fin whale sightings throughout May.

curs every 3-5 years. In the summer, whales typically travel to find cooler waters.

Krill is also a huge factor, as the water is more nutrient-rich from upwellings. Upwellings occur when deeper, cooler water rises to replace warmer surface water pushed away by wind and can happen anywhere throughout the ocean and along the coastline.

“The math does not work for me,” Luna said at the June 18 meeting.

According to Luna, the $3.09 million change to the spending limit wouldn’t change much because most projects in the pipeline are far more expensive and would require voter approval down the line anyway. She suggested a $5 million threshold would more likely work for what the ballot measure is trying to achieve.

Ultimately, Mayor Keith Blackburn, Mayor Pro Tem Priya Bhat-Patel and Councilmember Teresa Acosta together were enough to pass the measure.

Acosta reminded the others that the Carlsbad Tomorrow Committee recommended that the City Council approve a ballot

limit, and the reason is because it’s been stuck at this even $1 million since 1982, and everything costs more

The City Council approved the proposed reforms to Prop H earlier in June after a committee recommendation before returning to approve the ballot measure in its entirety on June 18.

This month, the company has observed an average of 11 blue whale sightings per day and 52 fin whales, the second-largest species. While summer is usually the best time to spot these ocean creatures, this year seems to have more sightings than usual, primarily attributed to La Niña and krill.

The San Diego coast is also home to several underwater canyons. San Diego’s marine life thrives due to these underwater canyons off its coast, which attract whales by providing a rich, dynamic habitat for various marine species. Until the 1900s, blue whales were nearly hunted to extinction for the oil in their blubber. Scientists estimate the species’ population to be about 10,00025,000, with the California coast being their largest geographical home.

SOUTHERN

CALIFORNIA GAS COMPANY NOTIFICATION OF REQUEST FOR COMPENSATION THROUGH THE GAS COST INCENTIVE MECHANISM

A.24-06-005

Why am I receiving this notice?

On June 17, 2024, Southern California Gas Company (SoCalGas®) filed an application (A.2406-005) with the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC). The application is requesting approval of its management of savings incurred during the purchase of natural gas for its customers.

Natural gas purchases are reviewed through a mechanism referred to as the Gas Cost Incentive Mechanism (GCIM). The CPUC authorized the GCIM as a means of encouraging utilities to seek the best rates available for natural gas. Under the GCIM, a target price is set and if the utility secures a better rate, the savings are shared with customers and shareholders. If a higher rate is paid, the utility must absorb a portion of the higher rate. SoCalGas shares the savings with its “Core” customers, that is, customers who rely on the utility for all their natural gas needs, including both gas transportation and gas commodity service.

Why is SoCalGas requesting compensation?

In the latest GCIM year, SoCalGas purchased natural gas at $74.3 million below the target price during the program period of April 1, 2023, to March 31, 2024. Using the CPUC’s formula, SoCalGas has calculated a $13.9 million allocation for its shareholders. This means that these purchases provided customers a benefit of $60.4 million in lower gas costs. In this application, SoCalGas requests that the CPUC approve SoCalGas’ shareholder allocation of $13.9 million.

How could this affect my monthly gas bill?

A typical residential customer’s average monthly bill for 37 therms of gas has already increased by 0.14 cents/month, from $66.62 to $66.75. A typical residential customer’s monthly summer bill for 23 therms of gas has already increased by 0.09 cents/month, from $43.63 to $43.72. The impact on each customer and customer class has varied depending on individual usage. If the CPUC approves SoCalGas’ request, there will be no additional change in customer rates from this application. If the CPUC approves a different allocation for SoCalGas shareholders, the difference will be credited or charged to customers through a rate change in future months.

How does the rest of this process work?

This application will be assigned to a CPUC Administrative Law Judge who will consider proposals and evidence presented during the formal hearing process. The Administrative Law Judge will issue a proposed decision that may adopt SoCalGas’ application, modify it, or deny it. Any CPUC Commissioner may sponsor an alternate decision with a different outcome. The proposed decision, and any alternate decisions, will be discussed and voted upon by the CPUC Commissioners at a public CPUC Voting Meeting.

Parties to the proceeding may review SoCalGas' application, including the Public Advocates Office, which is an independent consumer advocate within the CPUC that represents customers to obtain the lowest possible rate for service consistent with reliable and safe service levels. For more information, please call 1-415-703-1584, email PublicAdvocatesOffice@cpuc.ca.gov, or visit PublicAdvocates.cpuc.ca.gov

STEVE & KRISTIE LEBHERZ - 50 YEARS OF LOVE & MARRIAGE

By Britta Brewer - It was high school football season 1968 and Kristie C. Fischer was leading the cheer team at the Uni vs. Madison game at SDSU. She remembers Steve Lebherz warming up along with his other cat-calling teammates Pete Adams and Tom. Kristie graduated from Madison High and Steve Lebherz from University High School (now Cathedral Catholic). It was the Summer of 1969, and she was dating Tom, but he was leaving for college. She stayed local and attended Mesa Junior College. She saw Steve in the cafeteria and approached him to ask when Tom was coming back. It was the first time they talked. This first college year passed quickly, he played defense for the team, and she finished with a 4.0 GPA. Summer 1970 arrived, and Tom headed back to room up with Steve and Pete in a place on Ensenada Court in Pacific Beach. Her friends moved in across the way and they all quickly began to “hang.”

Steve was reading “The Cherry Orchard” by Chekov on the floor of the apartment and Kristie leaned over to read a quote he wanted to share. Tom’s face popped up in the window. He accused them of cheating and left, never to be seen again. All summer, Steve studied and worked construction. She worked at The Broadway store and on her tan at the beach.

With Tom out of the picture, Pete and Steve both claimed they liked Kristie. So, they did what all best friends do: flipped a coin to see who would take her out. Steve won the toss because “tails never fails.” They’d frequent the Beachcomber where they knew everyone and loved to dance. One of their first dates was to the drive-in movie theatre. They can’t recall which car they were in, her olive green “Mustang Sally” or his blue Ford Falcon, but they attached the speaker to the window. He tried to make a move and offered her a “doobie.” She claimed her good girl status and told him she’d like to go home. Much to his chagrin, he obliged. The following morning, he apologized and asked if they could forget last night and do a “do-over.”

As they got to know each other at her pace, they figured out Steve’s construction job was working for her dad George at Tone Builders. Her dad liked him, but her mom, Ida (Semm), could have tossed him to the curb with his loud personality. Kristie jokes “he’d make money from my dad in the day and spend it on his daughter at night.” She says her mom

grew to love him because he treated her younger brother, Stevie, like his own.

Steve’s parents lived on the top of Soledad Road in La Jolla, his father Dr. Thomas B Lebherz was in Cleveland, Ohio, at the time. Kristie met and fell in love with his mom, Elizabeth (Perkins) and sisters, Liz & Becky. She felt immediate affection for them and upon the four introductions to his brothers Tom, Lou, Rick & Phil soon after.

Steve transferred to the University of the Pacific on a full-ride football scholarship a semester before her and he’d sneak into the coach’s office to make long-distance phone calls to his girlfriend. They wrote each other letters for the full three months they were apart. She studied and worked at Taco Bell on Convoy to pass the time away. She surprised him once by taking a 13hour Greyhound bus ride to Stockton. He simply recalls her arrival in a brown, suede mini-skirt and boots. She claims naivety and, “I was going to see my man!”

On one break, she went up to visit him so they could cruise the state colleges to figure out where she was going to transfer next. They jumped in and literally “jumped” the ’64 Falcon each time they stopped, parking downhill so she could push it for him to pop the clutch to get back on the road. They slept in the car, his rifle in tow, touring schools everywhere in between. She finally decided on Chico State because it was just “too cute.” Her grandfather, a German immigrant and butcher, had left her some money to be able to be the first college attendee for their family. She made him proud.

It’s 1972 football season, she’d drive Mustang Sally back and forth to Stockton for all the home games. He crashed it though driving on Hwy 99 into some rice patties and hit his head in the accident. Four weeks earlier, he was jumped by a New Orleans gang and hit in the head with a bat following an away game. Between these two, it was then he claimed he went coo-coo. Luckily, Sally was still drivable, and he made it to Sunday night film.

She was finishing up her fifth-year teaching credential and his scholarship had run out, so he moved up to Chico where he had enough credits to graduate with a double major in Organic Chemistry and Biology if he took one elective. They decided to take a Shakespeare literature class together. He loved it, she dropped it. In Decem-

ber 1971, he proposed after earning enough money for a down payment on a ring by selling wood during the gas embargo. In May 1972 they walked in their college graduation together and married that June in a last-minute wedding for 300 people. She always wanted to be a June bride and didn’t want to wait an-

other year. They packed up a U-Haul, bought a piece of antique furniture as each other’s wedding gift which they still have, and married at All Hollow’s Catholic Church in La Jolla. Pete (the coin toss loser, but USC stand-out and Browns player) stood as their best man. Susie

(Brodgen) Freer, her childhood best friend, was her maid of honor. Steve said at the wedding toast, “I don’t have any money or a job, but I have the best woman in the world.”

They stayed at the Westgate Hotel in downtown San Diego on their wedding night, and honeymooned in Guadalajara and Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. While there, they asked for directions to the Plaza and some were given. Not feeling right, he had Kristie turn around in the stairwell. He stepped up into a corridor and saw a guy approaching him, but the sheer size of Steve the man running. She exclaims, “No money, no job, but my man had my back!” They returned to La Jolla and he got a job coaching the JV football team at La Jolla High and she as a substitute. PE teacher. His first job was in pharmaceutical sales.

The couple lived on Nautilus Street in La Jolla and snuck in their first

dog, Petey. Their rent was $135/month and their parents gifted them $100/ month for the first year, so they had to come up with the other $35. The Ford Falcon was left behind in a shopping center in Lodi, and replaced by a green VW Bug, the car in which they would bring their children home. They saved up enough money for their first home and moved to North County. They bought a condo in the Park Place Bluffs on Evergreen Drive in Cardiff-by-the-Sea in 1976 for $26,000. It was only a few months later they found out they were expecting their first child. So, of course, they needed to upgrade to a bigger townhome across the park and did so on Sandcastle Drive. They purchased it for $41,000. There they raised their three children, Britta Brewer, Heidi Peddy and “Bo.”

In 1978, Steve and Kristie opened Last Mine Mercantile, an English antique import warehouse

business. Two shipment containers were stolen, so that was the end of that. They then went on to open Guac-Ole. In a kitchen on Trade Street in San Diego, they had a mixer the size of a coffee table and produced the guacamole and salsa for all the professional sports facilities throughout California, including Jack Murphy Stadium and the Sports Arena. The salsa recipe was that of Las Olas Restaurant owner and childhood friend of Steve, Dave Murphy’s mom, and the same recipe you can still go eat.

Around 1983, Steve got his insurance license at the urging of his brother Phil and worked at Prudential and Transamerica until becoming an independent broker around 1986. Kristie was the best mom, involved in all the affairs of her kids driving them around in the much bigger cream VW Camper Van. She worked as the lunch line lady at Cardiff School and devoted her entire life

STEVE & KRISTIE LEBHERZ celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary June 29th, 2024. The local couple began as high school sweethearts and continue their local legacy with a focus on family and a deep love for the community.

STEVE & KRISTIE LEBHERZ - 50 YEARS OF LOVE & MARRIAGE

to making the kids safe and loved. The family’s handprints can be found on the Birmingham sidewalk as one of the donors who made Birmingham Dr. safer at the time.

In 1989, they moved across Santa Fe Dr. to what will always be known as “Big Blue.” They threw parties all the time for all their friends, which they were never short of. Their Oktoberfest celebrations were over the top.

Kristie played Bunco and Steve played softball and the development of Lake Sports Park is a result.

The land was owned by Cardiff School District and Prop 13 had just passed where the state claimed “imminent domain” over all unused education land. Empty parcels on Lake Dr. were just that. George Berkich and Joe Fazio, school district administrators at the time, called Steve up and asked him to create a non-profit to sign a 30-year lease so the town could keep it in their possession. CASA, the Cardiff Adult Softball Association, was developed and bought the land for $1 from the schools. CASA turned around and negotiated with the mayor that once Encinitas becomes a “city” they will donate 10 acres of land to be a park. He was the only citizen to hold a key to ensure the lights were turned off properly as a courtesy for the surrounding neighbors. This was Cardiff they knew, when the schools, city and citizens worked together to preserve what was best for the whole. This is where Steve and Kristie’s kids learned soccer, and forty years later where their grandkids still play football and son and son-inlaw play softball every week.

As the kids grew, they knew to keep them in sports to stay out of drugs. Cardiff was tiny and at the mercy of peripheral, monopolized youth sports teams. For soccer, it was primarily Surf and the San Dieguito Youth Soccer League. Even without knowing soccer, he was a coach at heart and knew there were a ton of kids who wanted to play a bit more competitively. A dear friend Kathy Stanton, 70-year Encinitas native and soccer registrar for decades, Steve and few others broke up these leagues to service all. As a result, the competitive soccer teams in Encinitas, Solana Beach, Rancho Santa Fe, Oceanside, Carlsbad and Leucadia were created. Of course, we had our own new hometown team: The Cardiff Mustangs.

The association to the name goes back to the Lebherz’ as well. Steve’s college roommate, Wolfgang, was the soccer coach up at Cal Poly SLO (The Mustangs) and in honor of him coming down to do summer soccer camps, they named it the

Cardiff Mustangs (also went well as San Dieguito High are the Mustangs, too).

The association to the San Diego Sockers professional indoor league also traces back to the Lebherz’. They had many exchange students over the years, including Miwa and Setsko from Japan who caught the kitchen oven on fire. Nowoki, also from Japan, bowed at the end of Steve’s desk for two hours consecutively asking for forgiveness when caught with a girl under his bed. Of course Kristie was having none of that and kicked him out like she did Steve on their first date.

There was Britta from Germany who they flew over to watch get married and most remarkable is Guti from Spain, here around 1996.

In school to learn golf course management, he was the best soccer player anyone had ever seen. He had gotten kicked out of the indoor soccer league at the Ecke YMCA because he was a literal weapon. In turn, Steve & Kristie urged him to tryout as a walk-on with the San Diego Sockers, when their friend Brian Quinn was coach. He made it! The connection between the S.D. Sockers and Cardiff youth competitive soccer was established. The league’s name has now been changed to the Cardiff Sockers and remains to be coached by them today. Some claim Steve and Mike Pittenger’s voices can still be heard echoing in the berm surrounding the upper Lake Sports Park fields and from where they were thrown off by several referees over the years.

Cardiff community vendors were tight in the late 80s. On what Kristie calls the Valentine’s Day Massacre, Steve caught a 140-pound Marlin in Cabo, had it stuffed and hung it in Las Olas with owner Dave Murphy. Within a few years though, it was stolen right off the wall at lunch by whom was thought to have been a fraternity from UCSD. He met Don Hansen around 1982 playing basketball at the Boys and Girls Club. It took ten years, but Don finally gave him the health benefits account in 1992 which is still in the family book of business today along with Cardiff Seaside Market.

The Lebherz’ always remained focused on their children, worked at their schools, coached their teams, and paid for them all to attend college. Steve single-handedly is responsible for teaching them and four others the employer benefits industry in which they all thrive and support their own families now. They took in every teenage friend of their children as well. The Lebherz door was always open. Their second focus was community. Steve’s pet

name for his wife is “Kristmas.” She absolutely loves decorating for all holidays, but Christmas is the ultimate. One time, she decorated over 30 different themed trees in the house to perfection. Her friends encouraged her to share as they all enjoyed it so much. With that, “Kristmas at Kristie’s” was born. Beginning in 1990, 30-40 crafters would set up booths throughout the yard and for one day crafters would come from all over to buy their wares. Her attention to detail and pure creativity brought so much joy.

The bazaar ran every December until 2002 when she was diagnosed with breast cancer. It was the same month the last of their four parents passed away and the anniversary of enjoying their first grandchild. Generations were shifting and the time passed slowly as she went daily for treatment, but we’re happy to report, she’s been cancer free since. The Lebherz’ continued to give, build and have visions of their community come to life.

They were original contributors to the Magic Carpet Ride public art statue, aka The Cardiff Kook, and own the original art piece still. They, along with their family, were also the original co-owners of the Cardiff Kook Run, sold in 2021. They wanted to share the most beautiful stretch of a running track along the ocean with others while raising money to landscape the area surrounding the statue and create an art walk along the Cardiff Campgrounds fence. It was an effort to relieve the city of more financial burden. Mike & Bette Pittenger, the Mustangs’ coach from above and Cardiff residents for over 40 years, have dedicated and volunteered their time over the last decade to keep it planted and maintained. Thousands came and Kristie headed up the photo booth and costume contest.

Steve was integral in creating the Patrons of Encinitas Parks to help with the much-contended passage to approve the implementation of Encinitas Commu-

nity Park, aka Pood’s. His work allows families to get outside, their grandson to skate, people to walk their dogs, kids to play on playgrounds and youth sports to continue to thrive on the very limited number of local fields we have to share with our growing population.

They now tend to their fruit trees and roses, make dinners for their family to enjoy, and continue to center their attention on their grandchildren’s and community events. You may see them around supporting Chloe, Caleb, Stone, Conrad, Eljae or Eli or putting on Moonlight Beach Half Marathon, Encinitas Beach Run, or The Encinitas Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving Day raising thousands for VANC (Veterans Association of North County) and making hundreds of Thanksgiving Baskets for Military families. Be sure to give them a wave and they will give a hug back. Their love for each other is infectious.

Steve and Kristie will celebrate 50 years married on June 29, 2024. It was a tough loss when Pete Adams, their best man, passed away, however her maid of honor, Susie, and husband Doug, will be joining them at a celebratory dinner at Chart House, their favorite restaurant. May they toast to love, laughter, raising kids, building community, fostering a home for everyone, weathering large storms and change, and doing “do-overs” when life gets tough. Their love and longevity are rare and may we all celebrate with them.

THE MOONLIGHT BEACH RUN is one of the community events produced by power couple Kristie & Steve Lebherz as a way to give back to the community of Encinitas.

FAMILY FIRST is more than just a slogan for the Lebherz family. Steve & Kristie’s Son Bo and their grandchildren Stone and Eli are shown above during the Kook Run, a community event created by the couple to help share the beauty of the Calfirnia coastline.

— Students and teachers from Bobier Elementary said goodbye to their old campus this month and celebrated the start of construction on their brandnew school.

The approximately $74.5 million rebuild is expected to take two years, and is the largest project funded by the Vista Unified School District’s Measure LL bond passed in 2018.

Plans for the new campus include a modern, two-story building with over 84,000 square feet of indoor space and 10,000 square feet of covered courtyard space. Crews will construct 32 classrooms intended for 650 students, adaptable learning spaces, a library/ STEAM lab, synthetic playfield, new parking lots and solar arrays with battery backup.

During the rebuild, Bobier’s approximately 500 students will be relocated to the Beaumont Elementary School campus, which ceased operations at the end of the school year along with Rancho Minerva Middle School.

At a groundbreaking ceremony on June 12, Bobier Principal Melanie Paliotti said the families and staff have made amazing memories at the old campus, and that the new site will allow children to grow and flourish even more.

Over 50,000 residents voted in this year’s Best of North County and it’s time to share the gold and silver contest winners. Congratulations to ALL the winners in this competitive contest. You truly are THE BEST businesses in North County! Visit TheBESTofNorthCounty.com today to see who’s the best of the best, and give them a visit! Also look out for our Winners’ Magazine out next week!

“As we stand here on this beloved campus, it’s impossible not to reflect on the countless memories made over the years,” Paliotti said. “While our surroundings may change, the spirit of being a Bronco remains strong. We eagerly anticipate the exciting opportunities that lie ahead.”

Bobier’s campus was originally built in 1956, and houses several of its classrooms out of portables, all of which will be removed during construction.

Vista Unified Trustee Rosemary Smithfield has been a strong advocate for the project over the years, along with former trustee Debbie Morton. She said the aging campus has experienced ceiling tiles falling

PLANS FOR the new campus include 32 classrooms, a li-

on students, mold, and rain getting inside in the past.

“This school needed so much work,” Smithfield said. “It was through Deb and my constant pestering and being involved every step of the way that we are here today.”

Vista Unified leaders spent several years working in conjunction with Ruhnau Clarke Architects and contractor Bernards, as well as Bobier staff and students, to plan a campus that would help students thrive.

Two Bobier student ambassadors also worked with project architects to give input on plans for the playground and field.

“Even though I won’t be a student at Bobier when the school is finished, I will be glad for other students, like my brother,” said student ambassador Alejandro Morales Mejia, who is entering fourth grade.

District leaders acknowledged that moving Bobier’s community to a new campus will be a difficult transition, but said it’s

a challenge the district is ready for. They also thanked the taxpayers of the district for their trust and support in funding Measure LL.

“I am so excited to have a brand new facility for our students, staff, and families. This new facility will set the bar for future improvements across the district,” said Superintendent Dr. Matthew Doyle.

Vista Unified completed several other Measure LL projects this year, including the Career Technical Education facility at Rancho Buena Vista High School and two new campus buildings at Vista High School. With the $247 million bond nearly used up, district leaders are now considering placing another bond measure on the November ballot to fund even more facilities projects. The board of trustees will decide in July whether to officially place the bond, currently proposed at $364 million with a rate of 4 cents per $100 of assessed value, before voters.

A COLORFUL FUTURE

Palomar College leaders celebrate new Escondido mural, future plans

By Samantha Nelson ESCONDIDO — Palo-

mar College leaders recently celebrated a colorful new mural recently installed at the entrance of the Escondido Education Center by renowned professional illustrator Rafael Lopez.

The mural came to fruition with help from the Escondido Public Art Commission and Sudi Memarzadeh, chair of Del Lago Academy’s arts department.

Ana Marie Velasco, the former chair of the art commission, suggested using Palomar College’s wall as a medium for a new mural in the East Valley area of town.

“(Velasco) had a vision that this wall would be perfect to celebrate Palomar College and add life to the community here,” said Art Commissioner Heidi Paul at a mural celebration event hosted by the Escondido Education Center on June 20.

The arts commission recruited Memarzadeh, who found Lopez for the job.

The mural features the faces of two students, several outreaching hands and two figures grasping for a star in the sky above a silhouette of the school.

“It’s absolutely astound-

ing and colorful, and tells a story that welcomes students to come,” said Art Commissioner Terri Ryan. “Where it was once dull, this mural suddenly brings light to this side of town.”

Palomar College Superintendent and President Star Rivera-Lacey noted the star echoes the comet that serves as the college’s mascot.

“I cannot say enough about how beautiful it is with its bright colors,” Rivera-Lacey said about the mural.

Lopez, who lives in San Diego and Mexico for parts of the year, could not make the mural celebration but said he was hopeful about the future of art in Escondido.

“Hopefully this mural is the beginning of more art and color in the neighborhood,” he said via email.

Rivera-Lacey also shared information about Palomar College’s impact on the region and its enrollment growth over the last three consecutive semesters.

One of the largest single college districts in the state, covering 2,555 square miles, Palomar College’s flagship campus is located

in San Marcos. Three other locations, including the Escondido, Rancho Bernardo and Fallbrook Education Centers, plus two off-site programs at Camp Pendleton and the Vista Detention Facility, are also located in the district.

The college educates approximately 27,000 students annually from diverse backgrounds. Palomar College is also a designated Hispanic Serving Institution, with approximately half of its stu-

dent population identifying as Hispanic or Latino. The college also serves one of the largest military-affiliated student populations in the state.

Palomar has more than 250 programs. At the Escondido Education Center, programs include air conditioning, heating and refrigeration, fire technology, emergency medical technician, paramedic training, and English as a second language.

The school is accredited by the Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges. According to Rivera-Lacey, the school has met all its necessary standards under the accreditation program and recently earned its best accreditation report in history.

The superintendent also said the school has improved its financial standing over the last few years, with healthier reserves and an improved credit rating.

Right now, the goal is to continue growing enrollment back to 1,000 fulltime equivalent students at the Escondido Education Center. The COVID-19 pandemic greatly reduced the center’s enrollment, which once stood at 1,600 full-time equivalent students.

In recent years, Palomar also joined the wave of other community colleges implementing baccalaureate degrees.

Currently, Palomar College offers a bachelor of science in Sustainability in the Built Environment, which trains individuals with the expertise needed to create environmentally, socially responsible and sustainably built structures. Students with this degree will be trained to ensure a building meets or exceeds state and local guidelines.

Rivera-Lacey said the college has at least two or three more baccalaureate degrees coming down the pipeline.

The college is also looking to bring new facilities and other improvements to enhance its offerings.

The school’s Center of Excellence for Health Sciences and Entrepreneurship is considering adding programs including alcohol and other drug studies, social work, psychology, sociology and health sciences.

The college hopes to add a new multi-story classroom building, a parking structure and an Early Childhood Education Lab School (ECELS) building to the Escondido Education Center, which was last renovated in 2012.

City, residents form tax district for road project

Fair officials urge public transit into July 4 weekend

By Laura Place DEL MAR — Residents

of a private stretch of San Dieguito Drive and the adjacent Oribia Road will form a tax assessment district with the City of Del Mar to split the cost of $1.2 million in repairs to the private street after a vote of approval from an overwhelming majority of residents last week.

Twenty-six of the 31 properties along San Dieguito Drive and Oribia Road submitted ballots, with 86.67% voting in favor of forming the assessment district, according to the ballots tabulated on June 17. A majority of at least 50% was required for the agreement to pass.

Under the assessment district, the city and the subject residents will share the $1.2 million cost of repairs in a 70-30 split, with the city taking on around $888,000.

Repairs will include a new 20-foot-wide road, 3.5-foot concrete rolled curbs, improved drainage, and installation of a retaining wall at the bottom of the hill near Racetrack View Road.

“I’m incredibly proud and heartened by the coming together of the neighbors. This is a phenomenal vote,” said City Councilmember Terry Gaasterland.

The vote marks a significant milestone in residents’ push for the city to assist with covering the cost of repairs along the 1,000-foot, severely deteriorated road, which has suffered from potholes, poor drainage and breakdown of the road surface.

In conversations going back two decades, the city has historically taken the position that this portion of San Dieguito Drive is a private street with an overlying public easement, placing the burden for repairs on residents themselves. However, city officials have changed their tune in the

past couple of years, working with residents to figure out how to collaborate to fix the road.

Due to the project’s different benefits for San Dieguito Drive and Oribia Road, assessment fees were weighted differently for the two streets. Each property along San Dieguito Drive will be responsible for $16,924, and Oribia Road properties are responsible for $8,462.

“I am thrilled that the Crest Canyon residents voted to approve this project by an overwhelming margin. Despite the cost to individual residents and

the City, everyone involved was able to work together toward a solution that will provide long-term benefits to all stakeholders including the general public,” said San Dieguito Drive resident Beth Westburg.

Residents can pay the assessment on their property tax bill over 20 years or pay off the entire amount upfront.

This stretch of San Dieguito Drive will also be added to the city’s public road system in the future, making it subject to the same regular repairs as other city roads.

“We need to have a

road that is up to the standards that are provided by the county and the city, so that we can take care of this road into the future,” said Mayor Dave Druker. “I’m very pleased by the fact that it was overwhelmingly passed.”

Utility lines will also be undergrounded along San Dieguito Drive as part of the city’s X1A undergrounding utilities project. Both the San Dieguito Drive project and X1A projects are planned to go out to bid in the coming months, with construction bids to be awarded by November.

Councilmember Dan Quirk was the sole dissenting vote against forming the tax district. Quirk stated that he remained concerned about how the city calculated the cost of public works projects.

“I’m thrilled for the residents of San Dieguito Drive that are gonna get this done. I’m gonna vote no on this, and it’s not because I don’t want this done; it’s because I have concerns big-picture about how the city approaches its public works projects,” Quirk said.

County Fair

San Diego County Fair officials are urging visitors to leave their vehicles behind and take public transportation as the popular summer attraction welcomes larger crowds heading into the Fourth of July weekend.

The 22nd District Agricultural Association, the state board responsible for the annual event at the Del Mar Fairgrounds, is encouraging guests to take advantage of alternative travel options to help reduce traffic.

The 22nd DAA suggested the Fair Tripper, an all-in-one pass that includes fair admission and a round trip on the Coaster, Sprinter, Breeze, or the MTS trolley or bus. Prices start from $16 per adult, and free ADA-accessible shuttles are available between the Solana Beach Amtrak Station and the Fairgrounds.

“It’s a great value, quick and stress-free way to get to and from the biggest and best community celebration of the summer in San Diego County,” said Tristan Hallman, the Fairgrounds’ chief communications officer.

For those who want to drive at least some of the way, there is also complimentary parking at Canyon Crest Academy High School on Del Mar Heights Road.

The suggestion follows reports of gridlock in and around Del Mar on June 19 as thousands of visitors flocked to the fair for Juneteenth. Roads were gridlocked, and multiple collisions in the area made things worse.

The fair runs until July 7 and is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays.

her sophomore year (referred to as K.O. to protect her privacy), said she believes public attention on her family’s situation is what helped the district to change course and settle the case.

“We are relieved and thankful to have reached a settlement, ending this long battle. We were hesitant to go public, but we believe sharing our story brought awareness and the justice our daughter deserves. It is unfortunate it took this long to achieve what is legally required. We can finally focus solely on our daughter and our family, a long-awaited relief,” Ogawa said.

The Coast News contacted all five SDUHSD trustees with questions about the case last week. Community members and other media outlets, such as The Del Mar Times, have also questioned district officials about their escalation of the litigation.

During a closed-session special meeting on Monday morning, the school board voted unanimously, with trustee Phan Anderson absent, to approve a settlement agreement with the family. A notice of settlement was also filed in federal court on June 21.

“The mutual agreement for special education services resolves the dispute with [the] student in exchange for a full release and waiver of claims against the district,” Board

President Rimga Viskanta said Monday.

Kelly Ogawa said she could not share the specific terms of the settlement agreement due to a confidentiality clause but that they are pleased with the outcome.

al and behavioral disorders.

Everyone else on the IEP team, including her parents, expressed that this placement would be inappropriate and even harmful for K.O., as proximity to disruptive behaviors was

They’re just burying us … You’re trying to fight against this huge public institution, but you’re just one family.”

“We hope the district recognizes the impact of its actions and ensures other families do not endure the same struggle,” Ogawa said.

‘They’re burying us’

In early 2022, the Ogawa family sought a new NPS placement for K.O. because her current school, Excelsior Academy, was set to close. She had had an IEP — which maps out instruction and support plans for students qualifying for special education — since the age of three and had a well-established record of extreme anxiety that necessitated a “small, calm, quiet” learning environment, according to the legal filings.

Issues arose when Nathan Molina, the district representative working on the student’s IEP, proposed placement at the San Diego Center for Children (SDCC), which serves children with mental, emotion-

shown to trigger anxiety and “inhibit her ability to make progress on her academic and social goals,” the federal ruling stated.

Her parents did agree to tour the school in early 2022, but this only confirmed their belief that it was not the right fit.

The Ogawas and the rest of the IEP team advocated for K.O. to be placed at The Winston School, a small special education school in Del Mar. Her family felt the school would “foster her continued growth and independence,” and noted that it was closer to their house and would be a cheaper NPS placement for the district than the San Diego Center for Children.

However, the district refused to offer Winston as an NPS placement for the student and continued to stand by its offer of SDCC.

“Molina effectively shut down the team’s discussion about identifying an appropriate nonpublic school for

Student by failing to consider any nonpublic school other than SDCC,” a state Office of Administrative Hearings judge said in her 2022 ruling.

This led the Ogawas to privately place their daughter at Winston in February 2022 and notify the district that they would seek tuition reimbursement.

K.O. has been attending Winston for over two years and is “thriving” by all accounts, her mother said. The district’s refusal to budge made it difficult for her family to believe San Dieguito was acting out of care for the student’s well-being.

“If we would have sent our daughter to San Diego

Center for Children, she would have been traumatized,” Kelly Ogawa said.

“That’s causing harm to a child — they’re not supposed to be doing that.”

Around this time, the Ogawas filed a due process complaint with the state Office of Administrative Hearings, arguing that SDUHSD denied their daughter a free and appropriate education by “predetermining” an offer of placement at SDCC rather than working collaboratively with the IEP team.

SDUHSD officials denied that the offer was predetermined, stating that placement at SDCC was best to meet the student’s needs and insisting that the

district was the sole decision maker about a child’s placement.

However, in August 2022, the OAH judge sided with the family in finding predetermination. The judge also stated in her ruling that she found the testimony of SDUHSD officials — including Molina and Director of School & Student Services Tiffany Hazelwood — not to be very credible.

The district was ordered to reimburse the Ogawas for tuition at Winston and costs of other related services. However, the district refused to comply, and after months of attempting

Riders hit new highs at Bradley Bike Park

Hundreds flock to new 8-acre bike park, pump track

By Laura Place

SAN

MARCOS

— Hundreds of wheels descended on Bradley Park on Monday for the grand opening of an 8-acre bike park and pump track, welcoming riders of all levels, from novice to expert.

Construction of the $1.1 million park began earlier this year. The bike park involved importing 14,000 cubic yards of donated dirt, which Schneider Grading then shaped into a pump track, perimeter trail and jump lines in collaboration with professional mountain bikers Austin “Bubba” Warren of Alpine and Shreddie Eddie Reynolds.

At a grand opening event on Monday, Deven Schneider of Schneider Grading called the new park a work of art.

“It’s just such a pleasure to create things like this,” Schneider said. “I hope you guys like it. We put our heart and soul, truly, into this project.”

hood Reinvestment Grant, and the state Parks and Recreation Proposition 68 Per Capita Program.

Warren, who resides in Alpine and has helped design various bike parks, as well as being a pro biker himself, said he wanted to help create a park that could be enjoyed by pros as well as new riders.

“The city basically came in and said, ‘build what you want.’ That doesn’t happen very often,” said Warren. “We wanted to make it a place for the common person to ride and just have fun … It’s just been a passion job.”

The next-closest bike skills parks with the same level of amenities are located at San Diego’s Pacific Highlands Ranch Community Park, Greg Cox Park in Chula Vista and Sweetwater Bike Park in Bonita.

The land at the southeast corner of Bradley Park was officially designated for a bike park last fall after sitting vacant for decades with limited options for development, largely because of its history as a former landfill. It has typically been used as the gathering spot for the city’s Fourth of July fireworks show.

“He’s making an initial scan, and he’s found some significant issues, but we’re really not prepared at this point to report on it,” Danner said.

Danner said his family moved to a neighborhood within a mile of the plaza about 65 years ago, and he feels connected to the businesses there.

“It’ll be a big loss to the community if these things disappear,” Danner said.

Conversation and planning for the facility kicked off in 2017, following strong pushback to the city’s removal of an unofficial bike jump line constructed by local youth on a protected open space.

San Diego Mountain Biking Association Executive Director Susie Murphy said the hundreds of people who attended the park’s opening on Monday demonstrate the pent-up demand for a facility like this. The organization has been a leading advocate for bike parks throughout San Diego County.

“There’s an obvious need for this kind of riding. It appeals to riders of all ages as young as 3, and probably riders that are 70 … all ages that can enjoy a facility together, from BMX bikes to dirt jumpers and mountain bikes,” Murphy said.

The park’s funding was a massive group effort, with dollars provided by the city’s General Fund, the San Diego Mountain Biking Association, Friends of San Marcos Parks and Recreation, the San Diego County Board of Supervisors’ Neighbor-

However, the San Diego Mountain Biking Association works with other North County jurisdictions to open similar bike parks. Carlsbad’s planned Veterans Memorial Park will include a bike park when it opens in 2025, and Escondido leaders have also approved plans and funding for the John Masson Memorial Bike Park at Jesmond Dene Park.

“We’ve been working on these for like a decade,” Murphy said.

Bradley Bike Park is located at 1587 Linda Vista Drive and is open Tuesdays to Sundays from 10 a.m. to sunset.

“In my own efforts to find any outreach, the applicant’s Facebook page was blank and their website was hard to find,” Wright said at the meeting.

Some residents at the meeting said TASCO’s studies related to traffic and vehicle miles traveled, or VMT, were flawed.

“Think about it intuitively. What you’re doing is you’re eliminating the shopping centers. You’re making residents drive far-

to the neighborhood. How could that possibly reduce the vehicle miles traveled?” Assistant City Attor-

Frost said the Planning Commission does not have jurisdiction to weigh in on the city planner’s determination related to the CEQA exemption since the 10-day window to appeal the finding has passed.

Jonathan Frankel, a TASCO representative, said the company was ready to proceed and requested the commission not continue the hearing. Frankel said resident concerns about traffic, infrastructure and fire hazards were studied “comprehensively.”

“We see no basis based on infrastructure, traffic, fire, etc. to continue the meeting,” Frankel said.

ney Allegra Frost said the public’s request to present more evidence related to the VMT study falls under the California Environmental Quality Act from which the project is exempt.

Savoring the beauty, wines of Antinori Napa Valley

After enjoying an Antinori Wine Dinner at The Butcher Shop, when my recent vacation led me to Napa Valley, I wanted to experience Antinori Napa Valley and the Antinori Italian wines I have previously tried.

Antinori Napa Valley represents a landmark achievement for the Antinori Family, whose winemaking legacy spans over six centuries and 27 generations. Applying their Old-World heritage and knowledge, the family has created NewWorld wines of finesse and refinement from their 1,200acre mountain estate.

Marchese Piero Antinori’s dream of Napa Valley winemaking began in the 1960s and took shape over the years by acquiring high-elevation terrain in the Vaca Mountain range. The unique landscape, reminiscent of his Chianti Classico home, required years of study and continues to be an ongoing pursuit to craft the best expression of these wines.

The vineyards, perched 1,600 feet above the valley floor, benefit from the ideal southwest-facing gradient and a cooling influence from the San Francisco Bay, resulting in complex, multi-layered cabernet sauvignon, cabernet franc, and chardonnay wines of elegance and nuance.

“Te Duce Proficio,” meaning “Following your guide, I flourish,” exemplifies their philosophy and dedication. In fact, Antinori’s Proficio label is the only one that bears Marchese Piero Antinori’s signature.

Antinori Estate Manager Glenn Salva provided a VIP property tour, including its new hospitality center and tasting room, grounds, and wine caves. Salva was originally studying to be an engineer in upper-state New York and noticed a viticultural magazine one night while burning the midnight oil.

He decided in the wee hours of that morning that wine was his calling and never looked back after shifting his major to viticulture/enology.

Marchese hired Salva in 1986 to oversee all aspects of Antinori vineyards. Over his 38 years, Salva was the epicenter of Antinori and a huge part of its success, with projects ranging from overseeing the initial planting in 1986 to digging out their wine caves when the go-to Napa Valley wine cave specialists were tied up with another winery.

Salva purchased mining equipment from a shutting down New Mexico mining company, shipped the equipment to Napa, and figured out how to build caves in a

volcanic mountain.

During our cave tour, Salva shared, “State-of-theart fermentation tanks are wider at the bottom allowing the lees cap to be pushed down and the juice to flow up the sides and over the cap. This provides gentle stirring during fermentation enhancing flavor and structure.”

Our tasting started with the 2022 A26 Chardonnay. A for Antinori and 26 for the generation of Marchese’s daughters, Albiera, Allegra, and Alessia, who share stewardship of Antinori with Marchese. The chardonnay was bright and fruit-forward, with stone fruit on the palate along with peach and pear and a hint of oak.

The chardonnay is grown next to a pond that provides a sink of cool air, bestowing brightness and acidity into the fruit.

The second wine was 2021 Townsend, named after neighbor June Townsend. In 1998, she sold her connecting 40-acre parcel to Marchese, of which 24 acres were planted. In 1999, the parcel was planted with cabernet sauvignon and proved to be one of the best blocks of cabernet sauvignon throughout the estate, using the findings of the Chianti Classico 2000 Project.

The project focused on the ecological value of grape varietals to be planted, rootstock characteristics, vine density, vine training and row azimuth angles, soil management, including cover crops, and clonal selection. Together, these were named the X-Factor principles and used for all Antinori plantings after 2000. The third pouring was the 2021 Cab Franc.

While Antinori was planted with cab franc in 1987, it was not until early 2000, when French clones arrived, that Antinori cab franc was supercharged.

The French clones creat-

ed sensual and perfumed aromatics, robust tannin structure, and supple intensity.

The fourth pouring was 2021 Proficio, the culmination of over 30 years of studying at Atlas Peak.

The wine embodies the pinnacle of quality and expression provided by Antinori’s steepest and rockiest mountainside vineyards. It is dominated by cabernet sauvignon and blended with cab franc for additional layers of structure.

High-end phenolics created a deep purple opaque color. This was an outstanding wine with plum on the palate, layers of complexity, and ultra-silky tannins. Additionally, the charcuterie during the tasting was hand-selected for each of the four tastings.

In closing, Salva shared, “Antinori’s DNA is embodied in Passion, Persistence, Perseverance, and Patience with respect for tradition and an eye for innovation.” Learn more about Antinori Napa Valley at antinorinapavalley. com.

The Butcher Shop Antinori Wine Dinner

The main course of Executive Chef Brian Gist’s five-course dinner was Braciole, an Italian roulade with breadcrumbs, cheese, and

herbs, along with creamy polenta and a red wine reduction/ braising gravy. This was expertly paired with Antinori Super Tuscan Tignanello,

the only other bottle of Antinori wine with a signature.

Marchese Piero decided to have his father, Niccolò Antinori, sign the label as a sign of recognition for his father’s confidence in him. Marchese’s creation of Super Tuscan wine was a marketing genius. Initially, Tignanello was rated as ‘Indicazione Geografica Tipica,’ a rating created in 1992. IGTs were intended to provide a tier above the ba-

sic Vino da Tavola (VdT), aka table wine, for quality wines that didn’t meet the regulations for DOC or DOCG.

The Super Tuscan moniker allowed high-end IGT wines blended in Bordeaux fashion to be a cut above IGT and compete directly with Italian premium DOC and DOCG wines that Super Tuscans were not compliant with.

With Pareja, youth is served

sports talk

Julieta Pareja is a fantastic tennis player and exceedingly polite.

But showing deference to her elders when battling them for a tournament title?

Respect, yes. Being intimidated, though, by those with more candles gracing their birthday cakes?

No way.

The unseeded Pareja, 15, defeated four older and much more decorated rivals en route to the SoCal Pro Series title last weekend at the Rancho Santa Fe Tennis Club.

The Carlsbad kid, if you will, eliminated players aged 36, 26, 18 and 21 to claim her first championship on the three-year old tour created by USTA Southern California.

The seven summer events serve as a steppingstone to bigger tournaments for the players, and they are eligible to earn crucial ranking points on the men’s and women’s tours.

The final feather in Pareja’s cap came when she ousted Kimmie Hance, UCLA’s top singles player, 5-7, 6-1, 6-4, in Sunday’s sun-splashed final.

The win came with plenty of hiccups, after Pareja dropped the first set and then squandered a 5-1 edge in the final set before finishing off the No. 7-seeded Hance, who’s headed into her senior season for the Bruins.

“I was thinking about staying positive,’’ Pareja said, when handling the match’s low points. “I wasn’t thinking too far ahead.’’

The future looks bright for Pareja as she dips her toes into tennis’ deeper end.

The SoCal Pro Series is loaded with talented players, some wise ones with years of experience and others on the younger side with the eternal dreams of what might be.

“When I go on the court I know they are older than me,’’ Pareja said. “But I’m not thinking much about what they have done, accomplished or how old they are. I’m thinking about how to play against them, how to match their game against mine.’’

While Pareja is short on trips around the sun, she’s a bright light when

leaning on her strategy. She has a powerful forehand that opens up the court, but her mind is never closed with contemplating ways to outsmart an opponent.

Pareja proves time and again that the most important six inches on any court is between a player’s ears.

“Every opponent is different and it’s a game to problem-solve on the court,’’ she said.

If a player can do that consistently, at any age, look out.

“It doesn’t matter how old you are,’’ Hance said of Pareja. “If you’re good at the game, you’re good at the game.’’

So is Pareja good? Better take it up a notch, according to Hance.

“She’s a great player,’’ Hance said.

Pareja is off to a great

San Diego Wave fires coach Stoney

By City News Service

SAN

DIEGO

— The San Diego Wave FC women’s soccer team has parted ways with head coach Casey Stoney, the club announced today.

Stoney, who entered 2024 as the longest-tenured coach in the National Women’s Soccer League, leaves nearly three years after being named the team’s first head coach and earning two trophies during that time -- the 2023 NWSL Shield and 2024 Challenge Cup.

Assistant Coach Paul Buckle will serve as interim head coach, and a search for the new permanent head coach is underway, the team said in a statement.

After earning the best regular-season record in the league last year, the Wave are currently tied for ninth place.

“We are immensely grateful to Casey for her commitment to our club and the positive impact she has had both on and

off the pitch.’’ said San Diego Wave FC President Jill Ellis.

“Over the past seasons, Casey has guided us to significant milestones, and her contributions have been instrumental in laying a strong foundation on which to build. The decision to part ways was very hard and not made in haste, but given the ambition of this club, and where we are in our season, we felt a change was necessary at this time.’’

Holiday Bowl leaves Petco for Snapdragon

By

City News Service SAN DIEGO — Following two seasons at Petco Park, the Holiday Bowl college football game will move to Snapdragon Stadium this December, it was announced this month.

The San Diego Padres and Sports San Diego made a joint announcement about the move of the bowl game, which was played from 1978 to 2019 at San Diego Stadium/ Jack Murphy Stadium/ Qualcomm Stadium/SDCCU Stadium before moving to Petco for the 2022 and 2023 games.

victory over Louisville in the 44th annual Holiday Bowl, played Dec. 27, 2023.

Moss set Holiday Bowl and USC bowl game records for touchdown passes and matched the Pac-12 Conference bowl record.

In 2022, Bo Nix threw a 6-yard touchdown pass to Chase Cota with 19 seconds left and Camden Lewis’ extra point kick deflected off the left crossbar and went through the goal posts to complete Oregon’s comeback from a 10-point fourth-quarter deficit in a 28-27 victory over North Carolina.

summer, with a title on her resume, 15 Women’s Tennis Association ranking points in her bank and $2,352 deposited into her ATM.

Not bad for a teenager landing a nearby summer job.

“It was great staying close to home, sleeping in my own bed and playing in such a high-level tournament,’’ she said.

Parjea did more than just play, she won en route to what might be her best summer ever.

The Holiday Bowl was not played in 2020 and 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

“It was our honor to host the Holiday Bowl at Petco Park,” Padres CEO Erik Greupner said in a statement. “Keeping the game in San Diego at a time when there weren’t any other viable options was vitally important to the Holiday Bowl, our community and local economy.

“We will continue our promise to be more than a ballpark by hosting worldclass concerts and events at Petco Park in the future.”

The two games at the home of the Padres have featured a shootout and a narrow, come-back victory.

Redshirt sophomore quarterback Miller Moss threw six touchdown passes in his first college start, leading USC to a 42-28

Nix completed five of six passes for 56 yards on the Ducks’ 79-yard, eightplay game-winning drive that also included a pass interference penalty. The touchdown pass came on a fourth-and-2 play.

“The DIRECTV Holiday Bowl had a great run at Petco Park, and we are so appreciative to the San Diego Padres for being tremendous hosts,’’ said Sports San Diego CEO Mark Neville. “The Holiday Bowl is an important event for San Diego, and the Padres were there for us when SDCCU Stadium was razed. Petco Park is an incredible venue, one for which our community is lucky to have.’’

The Holiday Bowl weekend features a ‘‘battle of the bands’’ with the participating university marching bands, a parade with floats and a “Bowl Bash,’’ with music, games and other live events.

Ihave a huge vegetable garden I work on at the Pine Street Community Garden.

Our Senior Garden Club meets weekly to plant and tend to our raised bed. We do have a restriction regarding the length of plant material; none of the vegetables can hang over the raised beds to interfere with the other 30 gardeners at the site.

In our 20-by-4-foot raised bed, we have found that anything in the winter squash family will flourish, but that it will also grow from 5 to 10 feet in length. Crops such as butternut squash, acorn squash and gourds needed a solution to survive.

So, one of my Senior Garden students, who has been gardening for 30 years, took the matter in her hands and created a lattice on which the crops could climb.

I think I am going to name her design the “Tic Tac Toe Lattice,” because she used six bamboo stakes to create an instant tiny fence.

THE TIC TAC TOE LATTICE

Use six 3-foot bamboo stakes, and place them on the ground in a parallel fashion.

The first three should be a finger’s width apart. The last three will cross over the first three. Tie with green floral tape or brown string, and you have an instant lattice!

PURPOSE OF THE TRELLIS

The purpose of the trellis is to maximize garden space. If you have squash or mini-pumpkins that need 5 to 20 feet to grow, the trellis can maximize the height and support they need to produce the vegetable’s growth.

As the plant grows, the foliage appears first, but as the flowers appear close to the ground, they must be elevated to produce further growth. When left on the ground, they can be attacked by powdery mildew, or worse yet, eaten by the critters that may be in your

yard. Alongside your squash trellis, another could be created to coax cucumbers and Swiss chard up the minifence.

THE FLOWER TRELLIS

There is nothing that will create a splash of color at your front door more

effectively than a climbing vine such as bright blue Grandpa Ott’s morning glory, a golden thunbergia or brilliant red mandevilla. I mention Grandpa Ott’s since it is available from Seed Savers Exchange, but any morning glory will do.

Climbers appeal for several reasons; they grow

rapidly to create a sense of maturity in a new garden, and their scrambling habit brings a sense of elegance to your front door.

All of these vines need something they can curl their tendrils around. That can be accomplished by providing an unobtrusive wire, such a fishing line, or with

an ornamental feature such as a trellis.

When the trellis is attached to a bare wall or entryway column, it will fill up the space as the climbers begin to cover the structure.

THE SIMPLEST

ENTRYWAY PLANTER

When searching for a planter for my Grandpa Ott’s morning glory display, I found an old hanging basket in my backyard and removed the wires and hanger.

The plants had since died in the container, but the base was the perfect size for a brilliant red tomato cage that would act as a trellis. I removed the wires from the basket, and voila! the perfect base for my trellis display.

I planted a dozen morning glory seeds in a circle at the edge of the pot and filled the center with nasturtium seeds.

In two weeks, the morning glory had begun its climb to fame, and the nasturtium were cascading over the edge.

CREATE YOUR TRELLIS GARDEN

Send us photos of your garden creations using unusual materials, and we might just feature them in an upcoming article. Happy gardening!

to enter into a settlement agreement with the district — including offers to waive their reimbursement rights in exchange for NPS placement at Winston — the Ogawas decided to appeal the case to the federal level in the Southern District of California in September 2023.

That court reached the same conclusion in late April, ruling in favor of the family’s Winston placement and ordering the district to pay them both tuition costs and attorney’s fees.

Big spending

The Ogawas hoped the state ruling would end the battle but were devastated to see the district file an appeal shortly after. By then, they had paid tens of thousands of dollars for their daughter’s private placement at Winston, where tuition is just under $39,000, not including costs for additional services.

The family said their special education attorney, Matthew Story, was thankfully working on contingency and very supportive. Storey could not be reached for comment in time for publication.

“We’ve been paying what the district should be paying for Winston, and we’ve been paying it out of pocket for our daughter. That’s a huge financial toll that’s the district’s respon-

Staying in Control: Communicating with Adult Children

Free Seminar on July 9, 2024, from 10:00 to 11:30. Doors open at 9:30 for Boomers, Seniors, and Those Who Love Them.

Are you finding that your now-grown children are beginning to assert control over your life? Do you welcome this engagement, or do you find it frustrating and unnecessary? For those who would like to foster a healthy collaboration with their offspring as they get older, it’s essential to maintain an open line of communication.

Join us for a conversation about how to create healthy and mutually beneficial alliances with your adult

sibility,” Ogawa said in an interview prior to the settlement. “They’re just burying us … You’re trying to fight against this huge public institution, but you’re just one family.”

While the exact amount spent on the Ogawas case is not public, district records indicate that SDUHSD spent considerable sums to litigate this and other special education cases.

According to paid warrants between April 2023 and April 2024, the district paid around $494,000 in legal fees for special education cases and $428,0000 in special education mediation settlements.

Many of these pay-

ments went to special education law firm Orbach, Huff and Henderson, which handled the Ogawa case.

“They probably could have already paid for our daughter all the way through senior year with their attorney fees,” Ogawa said. “Money from paid warrants is all from the General Fund. It should be going to students, and instead it’s going to fighting families.”

Other families, including parent Janice Holowka, have also raised concerns about the district’s continued pushback against the Ogawas. She has spoken at several board meetings, asking trustees to cease what she believes is a gross

misuse of taxpayer funds.

“The district’s attorneys have been leading you down the wrong path, as evidenced by the OAH case that the district lost in August 2022, which preceded the federal case that the district recently lost in April 2024,” Holowka said at the board’s May 16 meeting. “Anybody with special ed knowledge would not have continued to pursue this losing case and continue to torment this family in this manner.”

Viskanta was the only trustee to respond to questions about the case. She said she was not at liberty to comment on privileged litigation matters.

children as you age. This discussion will equip you with the tools to successfully navigate challenging discussions with your children and caregivers regarding the realities of aging.

Are you prepared for the next evolution in your relationship with your adult children? Relationships evolve and change just like people, but navigating those changes isn’t always easy. Complex family dynamics, blended families, and changing social norms impact both the choices we make and how we communicate them.

Don’t miss this opportunity to strengthen your rela-

tionships and gain valuable insights. Join us for a candid discussion about communicating with adult children as you age.

something was wrong when her phone started cutting out and smoke started billowing over her roof. “One of my daughters isn’t with me right now, so she will have to stay with a friend until we find out more.”

Massara was full of praise for the firefighters throughout the ordeal.

“They did an amazing job of coming to the rescue,” Massara said.

A temporary shelter for the displaced was in operation in the late afternoon at Del Mar Fair-

Only a few evacuated residents gathered at the Fairgrounds, which was vacant due to the San Diego County Fair being closed on Mondays and Tuesdays.

According to SDFRD public affairs, as of 5:30 p.m. Tuesday, ground crews and personnel aboard an air tanker and three water-dropping helicopters had halted the spread of the fire at an estimated 19 acres. The cause of the fire was under investigation.
