Sabellico concedes tight race

Allman likely wins

SDUHSD Area 4 seat

By Leo Place

ENCINITAS — San Dieguito Union High School District board candidate Kevin Sabellico has conceded the race for the Area 4 seat to incumbent Michael Allman. Election results continue to show a gap of several hundred votes between the two candidates.

Sabellico, a political consultant and former Carlsbad Planning Commissioner, has 8,566 votes as of Nov. 21, approximately 385 behind Allman. Around 20,000 ballots remain to be counted in San Diego County, with the next update scheduled for Nov. 27.

In a social media statement on Thursday, Sabellico said he wished Allman well in his next term and hoped the board would lead the district with “wisdom and compassion” going forward.

“This campaign, through its trials and tribulations, was rooted in higher principles — principles that transcend any one candidate, any one election. Standing up for academic freedom, fiscal transparency, and equal rights for every student in our district will always be the right thing to do,” Sabellico said.

Allman’s campaign declared victory last week and thanked vot-

Carlsbad bolsters control over airport

By Walker Armstrong CARLSBAD —

The Carlsbad City Council unanimously approved a series of measures on Tuesday evening to strengthen the city’s authority over land use and potential expansions at McClellan-Palomar Airport.

After years of legal disputes and community advocacy, the move marks a critical step in addressing tensions between the city and San Diego County, which operates the airport, over its future development.

The council’s action involves a sweeping update to the city’s General Plan, zoning codes and Local Coastal Program, clarifying the city’s regulatory authority.

The changes aim to prevent unauthorized airport expansions, limit development to existing boundaries as a general aviation facility, codify state definitions of “airport” and “airport expansion,” and require conditional use permits for any new or expanded airport-related activities.

“This is all about local control,” said Mayor Keith Blackburn. “This is a time where the state is slowly chipping away at our local control, and this was an opportunity to hold on to some of it.”

Local oversight

By Leo Place ENCINITAS —

The San Dieguito Union High School District approved a contract with firm CWDL to complete an audit of the district’s four high school foundations following recent questions about financial mismanagement surrounding the Canyon Crest Academy Foundation.

hires

Katrina Young said she was opposed to this and urged against focusing on one foundation. She also claimed that the allegations against the foundation have harmed its fundraising efforts, which in turn hurts student programs.

The original permit, issued in 1980, requires city approval for any changes or developments outside its scope. In 2018, the San Diego County Board of Supervisors approved an update of the airport master plan, which included a shift in the airport’s classification from a B-II medium-sized facility to one capable of handling larger jets (D-III) and a proposal to extend the runway by up to 800 feet.

These changes triggered lawsuits from both the city and a local advocacy group, Citizens for a Friendly Airport (C4FA), over concerns about environmental impacts and loss of local oversight.

In 2021, a partial legal victory by C4FA determined that the county must obtain an amendment to its conditional use permit for the airport before changing its design standard.

Despite the ruling, disputes continued. The county reapproved its master plan in late 2021 after additional environmental analysis but did not seek city approval to amend its permit for the proposed runway extension.

Earlier this year, C4FA renewed its push for stronger city regulations to ensure local control over the airport, prompting the Carlsbad City Council to re-

TURN TO AIRPORT ON 8

Carlsbad’s authority over McClellan-Palomar Airport has been a contentious issue since its annexation in 1978. Under the annexation agreement, San Diego County agreed to obtain a conditional use permit from the city for airport operations and any potential expansions.

The school district board unanimously approved the $65,000 contract at its Nov. 14 board meeting after agreeing to commence an audit in September and issuing a request for proposals last month. CWDL will audit the school foundations at Canyon Crest Academy, Torrey Pines, La Costa Canyon and San Dieguito Academy high schools.

Calls for an audit were spurred by a scathing online report published by two Canyon Crest Academy seniors in September, which alleged financial mismanagement within the Canyon Crest Academy Foundation. The nonprofit is run largely by parent volunteers and supports the high school’s athletics, arts and STEM programming.

In the “Ravens for Transparency” report, students questioned the foundation’s unclear itemization of around $674,000 worth of expenditures in 2023 and the foundation’s practice of taking end-of-year fees from individual clubs, among other concerns.

District management said the school foundations

are important sources of revenue for high schools, and the audit is intended to promote transparency.

“At this point, this is an investment to regain the trust and the transparency in our foundations so that this support can continue,” said Stephen Dickinson, Associate Superintendent of Business Services.

Some community members questioned why the district was spending so much money to audit all four foundations instead of just the CCA Foundation. According to a letter from CWDL, fees for auditing the CCA Foundation alone would come to around $16,460.

Litong Tian, one of the students who published the “Ravens for Transparency” report, shared concerns that the scope was too broad and would not address specific issues with CCAF.

“The goal of the audit has to be to reveal the truth, not to spend a large amount of money in a PR stunt to avoid singling out the CCA foundation,” Tian said.

Trustee Michael Allman also filed an addendum stating that he thought the audit should focus on CCA and answer the specific questions raised by the “Ravens for Transparency” report.

However, Trustee

“I would be greatly concerned if we turn this into, for lack of a better word, a witch hunt, which is kind of how I see the addendum, that we are focused on one school and not all four schools. To single out one would do great harm to that one school,” she said. At a meeting last month, Allman also requested that the board form a committee to oversee the audit process and that he be placed on that committee due to his financial auditing experience.

Opinion & Editorial

Do Ethnic Studies right

By Marcelo Garzo Montalvo

North County

San Diego high school districts have been working to prepare for the rollout of AB101 — the statewide Ethnic Studies requirement.

As an Ethnic Studies scholar from North County, an alumnus of San Dieguito Union High School District, I have some profound concerns for the ways in which this curriculum will be delivered in our communities. My primary concern emerges from witnessing the persistent inexperience and unfamiliarity with Ethnic Studies as a legitimate and well-established field of study, a dynamic which can lead to the continual dilution and distortion of the aims and approaches of this unique discipline.

I ask for teachers, parents, board members, and administrators to seek training in this ground-breaking academic field before making consequential decisions that shape this crucial new curriculum. The Ethnic Studies requirement should not be treated as a burden, but as an opportunity — to truly shift the paradigm of education in our communities.

As a long-term student and teacher of Ethnic Studies I recognize, along with many of my colleagues, this historical pattern of dilution. I have seen these same struggles play out as an educator in high schools, community centers, prisons and universities.

Ethnic Studies represents a fundamental critique of power, and thus, the institutionalization of Ethnic Studies has been shaped by a long series of compromises.

Subscriptions:

One of the most basic compromises perhaps begins with the fact that the term “Ethnic Studies” itself is actually a misnomer. That is, it is an inaccurate, perhaps misleading, term to describe the original project of the 1968-69 Third World Liberation Fronts at SFSU and UC Berkeley. These student movements — eruptions of youth rebellion that were firmly rooted in global calls for decolonization and anti-imperial struggle — demanded interdisciplinary

fields of Black Studies, Native American Studies, Asian American Studies and Chicano Studies.

Collectively, these fields were referred to as “Third World Studies,” a radical knowledge project that is defined by a comparative and critical engagement with white supremacy, settler colonialism, racial capitalism,

Ethnic Studies is not simply the study of ethnicity and ethnic communities per se, but ... a robust and interdisciplinary analysis of power.

and other global structures of power, privilege and oppression. The high school Ethnic Studies requirement has no other origin besides these original student movements and their relevant demands.

In other words, Ethnic Studies is not simply the study of ethnicity and ethnic communities per se, but instead must be understood as a field whose primary purpose is to develop a robust and interdisciplinary analysis of power.

Ethnic Studies should not be confused with parallel projects of diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging. It is not cultural competency, nor is it a depoliticized celebration of ethnic traditions. Ethnic Studies curricula, of course, includes some of this content, but only insofar as it furthers and deepens an understanding of underlying structures of power.

To be sure, the Ethnic Studies requirement is not simply asking us to include more content about communities of color, nor to just add more authors of color to the existing curricula. It is an invitation to reimagine the shape and purpose of education from the bottom up — bringing into question the pedagogies (ways of teach-

CState returns to ‘tough on crime’ california focus

rime has been a seesaw issue in California for most of the last 40 years. Leniency was the vogue for a while recently. But now the balance is back to getting tougher, as polls this fall showed many voters believed property crimes have vastly increased since the 2014 passage of Proposition 47.

The clearest manifestation of this was the strong performance of Prop. 36 on this month’s ballot, drawing a huge 70%-30% majority.

nounced it.

ing), methodologies (ways of studying) and epistemologies (ways of knowing) that undergird dominant paradigms of education and schooling, from kindergarten to PhD.

Thus, as California rolls out Ethnic Studies requirements, without a firm root, training, nor historical memory of this lineage of Third World Studies, we run the risk of reproducing a sort of deception — of continuing to stifle and distort a path-breaking academic field that will undoubtedly shape the future of education.

Part of the promise of Ethnic Studies — and the positive impact that has been demonstrated both academically and socially — comes from the empowerment of students to become agents of change as they transform themselves and their communities through a socially engaged curriculum.

To do this, Ethnic Studies must remain pedagogically rooted in the three guiding principles of the 1968-69 TWLF strikes: solidarity, self-determination and relevant education. Student strikers explicitly pulled these principles from their participation in the grassroots social movements of the time: namely, the international movement against the war in Vietnam, and revolutionary movements for Chicano, Asian American, American Indian and Black Power.

Each of these movements were, and continue to be, stigmatized, criminalized and targeted for their militancy and radicalism. They are dismissed, censored, silenced, erased, banned.

However, for those who support and believe in the promise of Ethnic Studies (especially in these uncertain times), AB101’s mandate must be understood as a truly unique opportunity, that is, perhaps as the only time in the history of California’s public schools statewide, to genuinely integrate, and center, these silenced voices, these perspectives “from below.”

Marcelo Garzo Montalvo, PhD is Assistant Professor of Ethnic Studies at CSU San Marcos

There was also the easy defeat of Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascon, who fell to Republican-turned-independent Nathan Hochman. And the recall of Alameda County DA Pamela Price. If he ever reverts to the GOP, Hochman would become the highest-ranking Republican officeholder in California.

The last time Californians made life significantly more difficult for criminals came in 1994, when the so-called “Three Strikes and You’re Out” measure passed easily in 1994. That result was in part a reaction to the brutal murders of Kimber Reynolds and Polly Klaas in 1992 and 1993.

Polly and two fellow 12-year-olds were enjoying a slumber party in Petaluma when Richard Allen Davis abducted and murdered her. Her body was discovered about two months later, in late 1993. Kimber, 18, was shot and killed in Fresno the previous year. Only 13 months after Polly’s abduction, voters passed three-strikes, which imposed increasingly tough sentences on any criminal’s first, second and third felonies, with an automatic 25 years to life for the third.

Polly’s murderer, convicted in 1996 after a long trial, remains on death row in San Quentin Prison today.

But just a few years later, in 2012, voters decided three-strikes was a bit too much, and passed a Prop. 36 very different from this month’s. It eased sentences for third-strike offenses that were neither violent nor legally designated as serious crimes. Within eight months, 1,000 third-strikers had been freed, with a recidivism rate under 2%, far below the overall average for released convicts.

This was a major step toward Prop. 47, portrayed as the villain in this year’s campaign for the confusingly numbered most recent Prop. 36. Because of the wide belief that Prop. 47 increased crime rates, especially for property crimes, voters strongly favored the new Prop. 36 from the moment sponsoring prosecutors an-

Prop. 47 did reach at least one of its goals, reducing incarceration significantly by reclassifying many drug- and theft-related crimes as misdemeanors, downgraded from felonies that carry more serious penalties. It set the minimum take for a theft to become a felony at $950 per crime.

One result was that felony prosecutions for theft dropped to 7% of their previous levels within eight years. At the same time, say the latest state statistics, the property crime rate dropped slightly (1.8%) between 2018 and 2023. Many take those numbers to mean the number of thefts may have fallen slightly, but the value of what was taken rose greatly.

So comes the new Prop. 36, which allows aggregation of the value of thefts by repeat offenders. That figures to shoot up the prosecution rate for property crimes and raise prison populations, all part of California’s crime seesaw.

Seeking to keep prison populations — and budgets — down, Gov. Gavin Newsom spurred the Legislature to pass several measures in August that accomplish much of what Prop. 36 sought. But it was not enough for voters, who clearly want stricter treatment for criminals like those behind the smashand-grab burglaries that have seen well-organized groups of marauders break store windows and take expensive merchandise that often turns up for sale later on the internet.

As usual, Republicans tried this fall to tar Democrats as soft on crime, even as they were passing their get-tough package of new laws, some of which will now be superseded by Prop. 36, which takes precedence wherever it conflicts with existing laws because it was a voter-backed initiative.

As for Gascon, he never had a prayer of reelection this fall after getting only one-fourth of the vote in the March primary election. His often-controversial moves drew eight primary opponents and the enmity of the potent local Association of Deputy District Attorneys.

So the pendulum has swung to the tough-oncrime side, but it’s anyone’s guess when it may again move back the other way.

Vacant buildings set for demolition in Escondido

City paves way for new eateries with drive-thrus

By Samantha Nelson ESCONDIDO

— The Escondido City Council has approved the demolition of two vacant restaurant buildings, including one eligible for historic designation, to make way for four new drive-thru restaurants along major thoroughfares.

During a Nov. 20 meeting, the council unanimously granted permits for 4G Development & Consulting to tear down the former DiCicco’s Italian Restaurant & Pizzeria at 515 W. 13th Avenue to build a Chick-fil-A. The building, which housed a Marie Callender’s restaurant prior to DiCicco’s moving in, has been vacant since early 2023.

The new Chick-fil-A will feature a drive-thru capable of accommodating 41 cars and outdoor patio seating but no indoor dining. According to the developer, the site was unsuitable for a sit-down restaurant but is ideal for a drive-thru.

Not everyone supports the plan. Jordan Ciervo, who owns another Chickfil-A roughly 1.5 miles away at 1290 Auto Park Way, raised concerns about oversaturation in the area.

“Being a mile down the road doesn’t actually reach

a broader part of Escondido,” Ciervo said. “We would be splitting my current customer base and not necessarily reaching the east or south parts of Escondido that are underserved.”

Ciervo said the new location could force layoffs of “a significant part” of his staff. Despite his objections, the council approved the project in a 4-1 vote, with Councilmember Consuelo Martinez opposed.

A second project, near the intersection of Mission Avenue and Centre City Parkway, will redevelop the site of the former Pho Truc

Xanh restaurant and an adjacent vacant lot into three drive-thru restaurants.

The Pho Truc Xanh building, constructed in 1962 in the Googie architectural style, is eligible for local and state historic designation. However, the council approved its demolition, with city staff noting better-preserved examples of the style exist elsewhere in Escondido.

The development will include a Starbucks, Chipotle and possibly a Pollo Campero, a Guatemalan fast-food chain that signed an agreement with the

developer on the day of the council meeting. The restaurants will share the property with the existing Quality Inn.

As part of the project, developer Nilesh Patel of Stoneview Properties will realign traffic lanes and install a new access point from Centre City Parkway. Improvements include a dedicated right-turn lane into the property and a traffic signal for northbound left-turn access.

“It’s very difficult to access this property off of Mission, so the ingress and egress off Centre City Park-

way is a must,” said Patrick Cox, development director of JPC Properties, a partner on the project.

The council approved the project in a 3-1 vote, with Martinez opposing and Deputy Mayor Christian Garcia recusing himself after discovering a campaign donor had financial ties to the development. Martinez objected to granting $412,000 in fee credits to the developer, arguing it was unfair to waive the charges.

“I don’t feel it’s fair to waive that,” Martinez said, adding that she was also saddened by the loss of both buildings.

Mayor Dane White and other council members supported the fee reductions, citing the benefits of revitalizing a blighted area.

“We need to get rid of the blight, and this is the

best opportunity we have at this time,” said Councilmember Mike Morasco. The projects are expected to generate over $1.5 million in tax revenue for Escondido in the next decade and create more than 125 jobs. Construction is anticipated to begin within the next year.

BESS Moratorium

The Escondido City Council voted unanimously on Nov. 20 to extend its moratorium on new battery energy storage systems (BESS) within city limits for up to 10 months and 15 days as staff works to establish updated zoning regulations and safety standards for the facilities.

The council initially enacted a 45-day temporary ban on Oct. 9 follow-

Chadwick leaves city manager role

By Walker Armstrong CARLSBAD

— After seven years, City Manager Scott Chadwick will leave his position to become the next president and CEO of the Port of San Diego, the city announced this week.

The city said Chadwick’s last day will be Jan. 5, 2025.

“It has been an honor to serve the City of Carlsbad these past seven years.

I am so proud of this organization and what we have been able to accomplish,” Chadwick said in a statement.

“As I continue my own career in public service, I know I leave the city in very good hands, from the crews who start their days before sunrise to our tenured professional staff and department leaders.”

In January 2018, Chadwick joined Carlsbad after managing day-to-day operations for the nation’s eighth-largest city as the chief operating officer for the City of San Diego.

Chadwick’s tenure in Carlsbad included significant accomplishments such as eliminating the city’s structural deficit, building a new fire station, expanding the affordable housing program, and positioning the city as one of the nation’s top 10 digital cities by focusing efforts on “technology projects that impacted residents communitywide.”

Under Chadwick’s leadership, the city also implemented its first long-term strategic plan, launched an open records

portal and developed a high-speed fiber network.

In response to a rising number of collisions involving e-bikes and other mobility devices, the city became the first in the region to adopt its own e-bike safety law. This law contributed to a 13% yearover-year reduction in traffic collisions, including a 20% decrease in incidents involving e-bikes.

“Scott provided steady, professional leadership when our organization needed it most, and, as a result, we’re a safer, more efficient city,” Mayor Keith Blackburn said in a statement. “We are sorry to see him go, but when one of the biggest public agencies in the region taps Carlsbad’s City Manager, you know we’re doing something right. We wish him the very best.”

The city operates under a council-manager form of government, where the council sets policy direction, and the manager oversees daily operations. The council will meet in closed session in the coming days to determine interim and long-term plans for filling the position.

Reflecting on his time in Carlsbad, Chadwick expressed gratitude to city leaders.

“I am proud of what Carlsbad has accomplished and especially want to thank the City Council, past and present, for their strong commitment to developing thoughtful policies, focused on good government, fiscal responsibility and longterm sustainability,” he said. “This foundation will serve the city well long into the future.”

Escondido detective, wife honored for rescue

By Samantha Nelson ESCONDIDO — An

Escondido police detective and his wife were honored last month with lifesaving awards for their heroic actions last Christmas Eve after they rescued an unconscious man from a submerged vehicle.

After dropping off family members in Menifee, Escondido detective Mike Nelson and his wife Janet, a trauma nurse, were driving home at night near Escondido when they noticed unusual activity on the roadway: a shirtless man running around a parked car on the shoulder.

What looked like a possible road rage incident quickly turned into a much more serious situation when the Nelsons noticed the wheels of a vehicle sticking out of a roadside culvert. The couple pulled over to investigate and quickly realized the overturned car and its driver were submerged in water.

According to the Nelsons, the shirtless man said he’d been trying to free the unconscious driver by using a rock to try and cut the seatbelt but had been unsuccessful.

Mike Nelson, armed with a pocket knife, entered the cold water and began

the difficult task freeing the driver in the dark.

“I noticed his feet were stuck between the windshield and dashboard as he was face down,” Mike Nelson said.

Mike carefully maneuvered the man’s body to extricate him from the vehicle. Janet, watching from the embankment with a better vantage point, also played a critical role in the rescue, coaching her husband to open the door wider to pull the man out.

As the rescue unfolded, the man first on the scene believed the driver was dead and eventually gave up. Before leaving, the man reportedly urged Mike to stop his efforts, saying it was useless to continue trying to save the victim.

“That was not going to happen,” Mike said.

Despite the odds, Mike pulled the man up the embankment to safety, where Janet was waiting to assist. The driver showed no signs of life — his skin pale and his pulse absent.

“He was lifeless,” Mike said.

Drawing on their medical training, the couple began performing CPR. A minute later, the driver began coughing up water and breathing again.

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

• Conducting home vacation security checks

• Assisting with traffic control

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

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

• Performing other duties as needed

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

Woman charged for unruly dogs

By City News Service

RANCHO SANTA FE

— Criminal charges have been filed against a Rancho Santa Fe woman following complaints to county animal services alleging her dogs have been roaming unsupervised throughout the community.

Debra Barkley, 68, pleaded not guilty earlier this week to misdemeanor counts of maintaining a public nuisance, which carry a maximum possible penalty of six months in county jail and a $1,000 fine.

Emergency responders soon arrived, stabilizing the victim and transporting him to the hospital. Remarkably, he made a full recovery and was discharged two weeks later.

While the Nelsons never met the man again, they have taken solace in knowing their efforts saved his life.

“Him being alive is good enough for me,” Mike said.

The rescue drew widespread recognition. Menifee Police contacted Escondido Police Chief Ed Varso to alert him of the Nelsons’ heroic actions. The city of Escondido later presented Mike with a lifesaving medal and Janet with a lifesaving commendation.

“I was really stoked that they recognized my wife, too,” Mike said. “She doesn’t think she did much, but when you have a calm voice with a broader view of the situation telling you to think of this or that, like getting the door open more, it helped me to stay focused.”

In October, Mike was also awarded the American Red Cross Good Samaritan Hero Award.

“We were honored to be recognized but also very humbled,” Mike said. “We give the glory to God who gave us the opportunity to save another person.”

The couple, both devout in their faith, believe they were in the right place at the right time for a reason.

The San Diego County District Attorney’s Office said neighbors made more than a dozen complaints about Barkley’s dogs, which were “routinely allowed to escape her property unsupervised and are aggressive to community members, including children.’’

Barkley has also been the subject of complaints from animal activist groups such as the Los Angeles Alliance for Animals, who said neglected, emaciated horses and dogs have been spotted on a separate property, including one horse that died.

In a statement, the D.A.’s Office acknowledged those complaints and said, “Every report of potential animal abuse is taken seriously and is investigated by the Department of Animal Services, and where the evidence supports it, is reviewed by the DA’s Office for criminal charges.

While the charges filed in this case relate to dogs and not horses maintained by Barkley, “the charges allow for a court to order enhanced supervision and monitoring that can ultimately result in the protection of animals on all of Ms. Barkley’s properties,’’ the D.A.’s Office said.

Last April, the Department of Animal Services was dispatched to a property owned by Barkley in the 7600 block of Artesian Road after receiving a call about a horse in distress.

“Animal Services dispatched an officer to the scene and found one elderly horse down and trapped in mud,” the department said. “While the horse’s owner and veterinarian were contacted and responded quickly to provide humane euthanasia, the animal in question had unfortunately expired before euthanasia could be provided.”

Raw milk recalled after bird flu found

By City News Service

SAN DIEGO — The California Department of Public Health is warning the public statewide on Nov. 25 to avoid consuming a specific batch of cream top, whole raw milk produced and packaged by Fresno County-based Raw Farm LLC due to a detection of bird flu virus in a retail sample.

At the state’s request, the company issued a voluntary recall of the affected product, which has lot code 20241109 and a best-by date of 11/27/2024 printed on the packaging. Consumers should immediately return any remaining raw milk to the store where it was purchased.

The CDPH is also notifying retailers to remove the affected product from their shelves.

No illnesses have been reported, but health officials — out of an abundance of caution — said consumers should not consume any of the affected raw milk. Drinking or accidentally inhaling raw milk containing the bird flu virus may lead to illness.

Touching your eyes, nose or mouth with unwashed hands after touching raw milk with the bird flu virus may also lead to infection.

Symptoms of bird flu infection in humans include eye redness or discharge, cough, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, diarrhea, vomiting, muscle or body aches, headaches, fatigue, trouble breathing and fever.

Estrella opens in San Marcos

By Leo Place

SAN

MARCOS

— City leaders and housing officials celebrated the opening of the 96-unit Estrella affordable housing project this week, marking the completion of the two-phase redevelopment of the former Mariposa Apartments.

The County of San Diego partnered with the City of San Marcos and Affirmed Housing to demolish the aging Mariposa complex in the city’s Richmar neighborhood and construct 196 new affordable units split between two projects.

Anyone who has consumed a voluntarily recalled product and is experiencing these symptoms should immediately contact a health care provider.

State health experts have long warned against consuming raw milk products due to elevated risks of foodborne illness. Outbreaks related to consuming raw dairy products have been reported due to Salmonella, Listeria monocytogenes, toxin-producing E. coli, Brucella, Campylobacter and other bacteria.

Raw milk products are not pasteurized, a heating process that kills bacteria and viruses such as bird flu. According to health experts, pasteurized milk and milk products are safe to consume because the heating process kills pathogens, including bird flu, that can cause illness.

The County of Santa Clara Public Health Laboratory has been testing raw milk products from retail stores as a second line of consumer protection. The county identified bird flu in one sample of a Raw Farm product purchased at a retail outlet.

Raw Farm, formerly known as Organic Pastures, has a history of food safety issues. In 2023, its unpasteurized dairy products were linked to a Salmonella outbreak that sickened 20 people in California.

In February, federal health officials traced an E. coli outbreak to cheese products from Raw Farm.

CEO James Frantz said an examination of school district financial records was underway to determine what losses the district incurred through the alleged overpricing. He also said his firm is speaking with several other school districts in San Diego County to see if they might join the litigation.

“Many people within the Oceanside Unified School District and across America rely on affordable insulin for their survival, and it’s unacceptable for pharmaceutical companies and pharmacy benefit managers to manipulate insulin prices for the sake of excessive corporate profits,’’ Frantz said in a statement.

The $51 million Estrella development, which opened on Nov. 20, replaced 30 former Mariposa units with 96 new deed-restricted units for low-income families making up to 80% of the area’s median income. The neighboring 100-unit Alora development, which replaced 71 Mariposa units, opened in 2023.

According to San Marcos Mayor Rebecca Jones, this is the city’s 24th 100% affordable housing development and one of several in the Richmar area. These bring San Marcos’ total number of deed-restricted units to 3,394, equal to around 10% of the city’s housing stock.

Like the Alora project, the units in Estrella are deed-restricted affordable housing for the next 99 years, meaning that they can only be used for low-income tenants during that time.

“These affordable units mean so much more to us than simple numbers. These affordable units mean that more families will have housing security and peace of mind for one less burden, knowing that their housing will remain affordable for years to come as they continue to build lives in our community,” Jones said. “These affordable units bring opportunities for families to grow and thrive, and open new possibilities for them.”

Estrella includes one- , two- and three-bedroom apartments, with two of the 96 units set aside for onsite management. Project-based vouchers, or Section 8 vouchers, were dedicated to 24 of the units, providing those residents with rental assistance from the county.

Residents have access to amenities, including a community building with a kitchen, computer room, barbeque area, four tot lots, a teen recreation area and complimentary onsite services from Compass for Affordable Housing.

Funding for Estrella included $10 million from the City of San Marcos and $2.64 million from the county via federal HOME program funds.

“The County is all in on increasing affordable housing across our region,” said David Estrella, director of the County’s Housing and Community Development Services. “Having an affordable place to live in all parts of the region gives families

the opportunity to live near their kids’ school and recreation areas, helping these families and North County thrive.”

A few blocks away from Estrella and Alora, a similar redevelopment project is also taking place at the Villa Serena apartment

complex.

Led by National CORE, the project is replacing the 1970s-era complex along Richmar Avenue with a 148-unit, 100% affordable development. The first phase was completed in 2023, and the second phase began earlier this year.

These redevelopments of already-existing affordable housing also mean that residents are displaced during construction. At Villa Serena, both phases have resulted in an outcry from residents who were displaced from the old Villa Serena site and forced

Vista mourns death of longtime civil servant

By Leo Place VISTA —

Residents and officials in Vista are mourning the death of former mayor and city manager Morris B. Vance, who passed away after 30 years of contributions to the city.

He was 85 years old.

A Utah native, Vance died on Nov. 21, according to city officials. His work in Vista began in 1981 when he was hired as city manager, a role he would hold for 17 years during a period of massive change in the city.

“The City of Vista is deeply saddened to announce the passing of Morris B. Vance, a dedicated public servant whose con-

tributions to the community have left an indelible legacy,” the city said on Nov. 21.

During his time as city manager, Vance oversaw the formation of the Vista Redevelopment Agency, the development of the Vista Business Park and Industrial Park that now house more than 800 businesses, and the opening of key community facilities such as the Vista Library, Senior Nutrition Center, Wave Waterpark and several fire stations.

After leaving his city manager post, Vance ran for mayor just a few years later in hopes of continuing to improve the city. He was elected in 2002 and served two terms over the following eight years.

Under Vance’s mayoral leadership, the city saw the 2006 passage of Proposition L, which funded Moonlight Amphitheatre renovations, a new sports park, and fire stations, among other important projects. Vista was also recognized as a charter city in 2007.

“Morris Vance’s vision and commitment to Vista have left a profound and lasting impact on our com-

munity,” said City Manager John Conley. “He was a remarkable leader and a beloved member of our city who cared deeply about every resident. His legacy will continue to inspire future generations.”

Vance was also credited with championing community initiatives, including the A.S.K. Vista program, which fostered dialogue between city officials and residents. He was known for prioritizing the collaborative winter homeless shelter Operation H.O.P.E, increasing law enforcement, and introducing the county’s first Community-Oriented Policing Program.

Before his work in Vista, Vance’s public service career began in 1965 as an administrative assistant in Los Angeles, followed by assistant city manager and city manager roles in the cities of Carson and Lomita, respectively.

Vance was also involved in many regional organizations, including the Regional Transportation Planning Authority, the San Diego County Regional Airport Authority, the Encina Wastewater Authority, the Rotary Club of Shadowridge Vista and the Boy Scouts of America.

Vance spent 48 years with his late wife Janice, who passed away in 2011

and with whom he shares two sons, David and Tommy, and several grandchildren and great-grandchildren. He is also survived by his wife Laureen, who he married in 2013.

A funeral service will be held for Vance on Dec. 7 at the Church of Latter-Day Saints at 451 W. Bobier Dr. Flowers can be sent to the church between 8:30 and 9:30 a.m. on the day of the funeral; however, the family requests that donations be sent to Operation H.O.P.E. in Vista in lieu of flowers.

A viewing will take place from 9:30 to 10:45 a.m., and the funeral will be at 11 a.m.

Man struck, killed by car

By City News Service

ESCONDIDO — A pedestrian was struck by a vehicle and killed on Nov. 24 in Escondido.

The fatal crash was reported to the California Highway Patrol at 9:22 p.m and occurred on the eastbound Ronald Packard (78) Parkway east of Centre City Parkway.

visit and update its codes.

“This has been a wellthought-out, well-vetted, Herculean effort,” said Vickey Syage, president of C4FA. “Tonight is a culmination of seven years of work and over $1 million in legal fees spent by both the City of Carlsbad and C4FA over the past seven years.”

Syage criticized the county’s attempts to bypass the original annexation agreement, which granted Carlsbad local control over airport development.

“The county did as it pleased, and the city believed itself powerless to stop it,” she said. “Tonight, we are asking the City Council to take the next step so the city, the county, and the residents never have to go through such an ordeal again.”

Concerns, pushback

Residents and environmental advocates have long opposed airport expansion, citing increased noise, pollution and potential safety risks.

Hope Nelson, a Carlsbad resident, called on the council to remain vigilant.

“My hope is that our City Council will implement the necessary actions in the most aggressive way and to the fullest extent of the law,” Nelson said.

In letters to the city, Jamie Abbott, director of air-

ports for San Diego County, pledged the county’s commitment to working collaboratively with Carlsbad but argued that federal aviation guidelines preempt local authority.

The city’s newly adopted measures rely on state law to assert oversight and ensure that any airport development aligns with local planning standards.

As a result of Tuesday’s decision, some measures tied to local control will be implemented right away, while others, such as changes to the Local Coastal Program, require approval from the California Coastal Commission.

Additionally, the city must remain prepared for potential legal challenges or disputes with the county. The council’s vote also addresses concerns about ongoing efforts to expand airport operations.

Plans for American Airlines to operate flights out of Palomar have drawn scrutiny, and the county is expected to review a contract in December.

“When it’s in the news, we’re going to get credit for it,” Blackburn said. “And I like that.”

If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned o may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying o all liens senior to the lien being auctioned o , before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s o ce or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.

NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown

on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, bene ciary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code.

If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call the number shown below in BOLD, using the REF number assigned to this case on SHOWN ABOVE. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be re ected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. Said sale will be made, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust, with interest thereon, as provided in said note(s), advances, if any, under the terms of the Deed of Trust.

Solana Beach OKs Housing Element programs

By Leo Place SOLANA BEACH

—

The Solana Beach City Council has approved new ordinances implementing housing density and zoning programs required in its Housing Element.

The 6th Cycle Housing Element, which covers the period 2021-2029, outlines housing production requirements for California cities and plans for implementing various programs to facilitate housing construction. Solana Beach is required to permit 875 units in this cycle and adopt 37 specific programs.

At its Nov. 21 meeting, the City Council adopted several amendments to its zoning ordinance, including 11 required Housing Element programs and an updated density bonus ordinance that more accurately reflects state law.

With these adopted changes, the city has checked off 21 of the 37 programs required in this Housing Element cycle, according to Community Development Director Joseph Lim.

“I think we’d all agree, given how challenging it was to get through the Housing Element process, it’s nice that we’re sticking to our guns and delivering what we’re supposed to be delivering and getting this done,” City Councilmember Dave Zito said.

The density bonus ordinance approved by the

council adds language stating that the city adopts the California State Density Bonus Law by reference. Lim said there have been many state-level changes to the density bonus law and that this change is easier than repeatedly amending the city’s code.

One of the 11 changes in the zoning ordinance is an amendment to the city code

to allow and permit manufactured homes and mobile homes in the same manner and zone as conventional housing structures, allowing them to be used as primary or accessory dwelling units.

The zoning ordinance also:

• Adds transitional and supportive housing as an allowed use in areas where

multifamily and mixed uses are permitted

• Changes the city’s definition of employee housing to be compliant with state law

• Amends parking requirements for emergency shelters

• Allows group homes of six or fewer people in single-family residential areas

• Amends the definition of density to be based on gross acreage versus net acreage

• Clarifies the allowed height of buildings in the special commercial zone to include “up to three stories”

with physical and developmental disabilities (fulfills two Housing Element programs)

Lim said that as of 2023, the city had permitted 96 units. This amount does not include units in several other projects, including the 260-unit Solana Highlands Apartments (which will include 32 low-income units), 13 townhomes off Stevens Avenue, eight units within the Ida Avenue apartments, and several single-family dwellings and accessory dwelling units.

“There are several other projects that are in different stages of obtaining entitlements, building permits or being constructed that are not included in the above unit count which will be recorded on future annual reports as they are completed,” Lim said.

for low-income (51-80% of county MFI); 160 units for moderate-income (81120% of county MFI); and 240 units for above moderate-income (120% or more of county MFI).

Solana Beach’s 6th Cycle Housing Element was certified in 2023 after two years of back-and-forth with state housing officials.

Of the 875 units allocated to Solana Beach in the Regional Housing Needs Allocation process, 316 must be for extremely low and very low-income households (those making less than 50% of San Diego County’s median fixed income, or MFI); 159 units

The city initially pushed back against the assigned number of units from the Regional Housing Needs Allocation, joining three other cities in a lawsuit arguing that the San Diego Association of Governments had issued allocations inequitably, but the suit was dismissed in 2021.

Before Nov. 21, the city had adopted 10 other required programs related to accessory dwelling units, affordable housing development on city-owned land, public education, water and sewer resources, and energy conservation.

“The staff has been working diligently to move forward the various programs that are contained in the Housing Element,” Lim said.

Sable was picked up as a stray and taken to a local shelter. When nobody called about her, identified her, or claimed her, she was transferred to Rancho Coastal Humane Society through Friends of County Animal Shelters.

Sable is an active dog who loves her toys.

The $145 adoption fee includes a medical exam, neuter, up-to-date vaccinations, registered microchip and a one-year license if the new home is in the jurisdiction of San Diego Humane Society’s Department of Animal Services.

For information about adoption or to become a virtual foster, stop by Rancho Coastal Humane Society at 389 Requeza St., Encinitas, call 760-753-6413 or visit SDpets.org.

ESTRELLA is pet of the week at the Helen Woodward Animal Center. She is a 2-year-old, 10-pound cat with a black and white coat.

Estrella is shy at first, but once she gets used to her surroundings, she becomes playful and loving. She would prefer a home with children who are 16 and older, but doesn’t mind other cats and dogs.

Estrella’s adoption fee is $115 plus a $36 microchip fee. All pets adopted from Helen Woodward Animal Center are altered and up-to-date on vaccinations and micro-chipped for identification.

Visit Helen Woodward Animal Center at 6523 Helen Woodward Way in Rancho Santa Fe. Kennels are open Wednesday through Sunday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. (by appointment only). For more information, call 858-756-4117, option #1 or visit animalcenter. org.

SPARKY is the San Diego Humane Society’s pet of the week. He is at the Oceanside Campus.

Sparky is a friendly 6-year-old pup who loves nothing more than to fetch tennis balls, get his toes wet and romp around with his favorite humans. He knows commands like “sit” and enjoys attention and affection.

Sparky’s fees are normally $110 but have been cut back to $20 until Nov. 30.

Fees include spay/neuter services, current vaccinations, permanent microchip identification, an incentive for pet insurance and a license for residence in the city limits of Carlsbad, Del Mar, Encinitas, Escondido, Oceanside, Poway, San Diego, San Marcos, Santee, Solana Beach and Vista.

ers for their support.

“Shout out to our huge army of volunteers who worked hard for this victory. Thank you to our community who kept the faith and never wavered,” Allman said on social media on Nov. 15.

Controversy abounded in the Area 4 race, which Sabellico entered in May after dropping his initial Carlsbad City Council bid. Sabellico reported $102,675 in campaign donations, and Allman reported $59,876.

Much of Sabellico’s campaign focus was on attacking Allman, who he branded as “MAGA Mike,” and highlighting his divisive track record in his first term, including supporting a redistricting map that landed the district in a gerrymandering lawsuit and being accused of bullying behavior toward fellow board members, students, district staff and the former superintendent.

In August, Allman challenged Sabellico’s claim of being an educator in his ballot designation, with a judge later agreeing that the designation was “false and misleading.” Sabellico defended the use of the title by stating that he had been hired by the San Dieguito

dates and criticized their opponents for being funded by the San Dieguito Faculty Association, the union representing district teachers and faculty.

“We were up against a very powerful machine in the teacher union backed candidate,” Friis said on social media. “Thank you for supporting me and congratulations to Jodie. I hope and pray the board does right by not just what teacher union leadership want, but what children, parents and taxpayers need.”

While the San Dieguito Faculty Association contributed to Williams, giving $2,025 in monetary donations, Sabellico was their primary beneficiary by far, receiving $54,925 from the association as of Oct. 28.

The association also funded mailers supporting both candidates.

school district, which district officials denied.

Allman was also investigated by the state’s Fair Political Practices Commission related to three complaints that alleged he failed to meet campaign filing deadlines, improperly accepted a $2,500 donation from a developer recently contracted by the district, and could not meet

advertising disclaimer requirements.

In the latter case, Allman accused Sabellico and complainant Bob Ayers of faking the evidence sent to the FPPC.

In the much less controversial but competitive Area 2 race, current Encinitas Union School District trustee Jodie Williams has maintained a steady lead

INTEREST LIST WEBSITE: https://www.liveatfoxpointfarms.com/

Please visit https://www.liveatfoxpointfarms.com/ to register for the interest list which will be open for two weeks only and then close. When the waitlist closes, a lottery will be held in approximately two weeks later, and winners will be contacted in the following weeks via email and notified of their place on the waitlist. The 40 affordable units will have a staggered release for occupancy over the next year and half, which translates to 2-3 units per month becoming ready for occupancy and assuming no construction delays. Four units are immediately available; however, actual occupancy of the 36 remaining affordable units will take a significant amount of time and immediate occupancy should not be expected. Lottery winners will be contacted in sequential order to start the income eligibility process, which takes about four weeks. If lottery winners do not meet the eligibility requirements, then they will not be able to occupy the affordable units, and we will move on to the next lottery winner. Due to overwhelming demand, we will not have the ability to be in contact with all interested parties and will have updates available only on our website. We anticipate having a telephone line available in January 2025 which will be posted on the property website, along with all other updates. We thank you in advance for your patience with us over the course of this exciting lease-up process and wish you the very best! The

ing a fire at a BESS facility on Enterprise Street. These systems, which store energy from the grid and discharge it during high-demand periods, are primarily commercial facilities intended to supply electricity to third parties.

Historically, BESS projects have been allowed in general industrial zones, which typically accommodate heavy industries like oil refineries and power plants.

However, Escondido currently has no specific zoning laws for battery storage sites despite roughly 27 such facilities already operating within the city.

Concerns surrounding BESS facilities include public safety risks, such as fires, explosions and thermal runaway events, and their

board, following the same trajectory by Board President Rimga Viskanta in 2022.

Friis conceded the race to Williams on social media a few days after the Nov. 5 election, as the vote gap between the candidates continued to grow.

Friis and Allman have positioned themselves as parent-supported candi-

limited contribution to economic development, as they are largely unmanned and remotely managed.

“The purpose behind all of this isn’t a permanent moratorium, but I think after a fire, having standards in place would be a good idea,” Mayor Dane White said.

The moratorium follows the council’s earlier resolution in August opposing large-scale BESS facilities like the proposed Seguro project in Eden Valley, located just outside city limits.

Cori Schumacher, political director at IBEW Local 569, urged the council to reject the maximum time-frame ban and instead focus on workforce safety standards for BESS facilities.

Schumacher called for a requirement that only C-10 certified electricians

The SDFA has been involved in past efforts to oust Allman, including leading a failed recall effort in 2021.

handle installation and maintenance at these sites.

A C-10 certification is a state-issued license authorizing individuals or entities to perform high-voltage electrical work.

According to Schumacher, the maintenance workforce on the Enterprise Street facility that caught fire had been replaced by a non-C-10-certified contractor, which she claimed highlighted a significant risk.

“It’s time to ensure the right workforce is doing this work,” Schumacher said.

While the council approved the extended moratorium, staff noted they might not need the full 10 months and 15 days to propose new standards.

The updated regulations aim to address safety concerns while providing clearer oversight of BESS operations in Escondido.

Windansea’s legacy in the eye of the beholder

water spot

My writing of a book about Windansea began in the summer of 1980 when I sat with Windansea local and one of the world’s top surfers, Chris O’Rourke.

O’Rourke, who died from Hodgkin’s disease the following year, told fascinating, cinematic tales. While I never published Chris’s entire story, I’m glad I kept my notes. Two decades after O’Rourke’s departure, Surfer’s Journal requested I do an extensive feature on Windansea.

Woody Brown, who first rode Windansea in 1937, served as a trailhead that led to Mac Meda Destruction Company, Windansea Surf Club, Butch Van Artsdalen, Mike Hynson, Tom Ortner, Brew Briggs and finally, Chris O’Rourke.

The following is an excerpt from “Windansea: Life. Death. Resurrection”:

Nobody drives their car into the shore break or rides Flexi-Flyers out of sewer pipes anymore. The shack, once considered an eyesore reserved for surf bums, is now a historical landmark

visited by tourists snapping those “You won’t believe what I did on my summer vacation” pictures.

Random polling indicates that fewer than five percent of non-locals have heard of the Mac Meda Destruction Company, the fictitious company founded by Jack “Mac” Macpherson and Bob “Meda” Rakestraw, ostensibly to keep Windansea sacred while having more fun than the law allows.

Still, Windansea retains enough badness to get a tooth loosened for being on the right wave at the wrong time.

Modern-day Windansea sometimes generates the melancholy felt when

the house is full but the party is dying. While real fun still happens, the old days are often reenacted by dimly lit luaus and surf reunions, reminding us of an outlaw past.

Some people have more affection for the Windansea parking lot (the Lot) than exists in entire families. After estrangement from wealthy birth parents, many Lot locals find cohesion with other lost souls gravitating to the ocean.

The Lot is where you check the surf and tell the stories. It serves as bleachers from which to observe the main break, the Womp, Big Rock, Middles, Simmons and Dunemere.

At first glance, Win-

dansea waves appear as mushy peaks breaking near shore. Your first paddle out proves this wrong. The peak rises far from the sand and is quick and thick, unloading more water than nearly any other SoCal surf spot.

While Windansea mimics a smaller version of one of the North Shore’s premier spots, Sunset Beach, a few hundred yards south, Big Rock serves up a quarter-scale model of the Pipeline in the shape of a punchy locals-only razor reef. This partially explains why La Jolla surfers rip in Hawaii.

Like all natural wonders, Windansea packs an emotional wallop. Thou-

sands of years of tribal joy and sadness, along with the great rides and wipeouts of Butch, both Woodys, Simmons, and O’Rourke, can still be felt there.

Windansea is located at the edge of a resort town in Southern California called La Jolla. Some say La Jolla is Spanish for “The Jewel,” although Joya, not Jolla, is the correct spelling for jewel in Spanish.

The first known settlers in the area, the Kumeyaay, called the place Kulaaxuuy “Land of Holes.” That may seem appropriate to surfers run out of Windansea by the locals.

In all fairness, Land of Holes probably refers to the area’s many caves, not its most vigilant residents. La Jolla, as it is now known internationally, is a jewel with many caves and an occasional a-hole.

Beyond the Cellar toasts elegant wines, food

taste of wine & food

For wine lovers, Beyond the Cellar at The Lodge at Torrey Pines was an absolute delight. Held in the stunning coastal setting of La Jolla, this event brought together an impressive lineup of wineries alongside gourmet culinary offerings for an unforgettable evening.

With world-class wines and dishes crafted by executive chef Kelli Crosson’s team, the experience was both indulgent and inspiring.

The evening showcased iconic wineries, mostly from Napa Valley and Sonoma County, with Daou Family Estates’ Patrimony standing out as the sole representative from Paso Robles. Having attended countless tastings over the years, I can confidently say this was among the finest — every detail was meticulously curated to wow guests.

Darioush: Roman Palumbo, Darioush’s national sales director, brought his enthusiasm and charm, making each pour feel like a special moment. The 2021 Mount Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon was bold and structured, with layers of blackberry and subtle oak spice.

The 2021 Shiraz from Napa Valley delivered rich, spicy depth with notes of black pepper and ripe plum. The 2023 Viognier, with its lively notes of stone fruit and citrus, added a refreshing balance to the evening’s red-heavy lineup.

Patrimony Estate: Eryn Schnitzer, Patrimony’s SoCal business development manager, showcased Patrimony’s excellence through vertical tastings. Patrimony, the Daou brothers’ exclusive brand and legacy, represents the pin-

nacle of their winemaking journey.

Daniel Daou, master director of winemaking, ensures every bottle reflects the unique terroir of Daou Mountain in Paso Robles. The 2020 and 2021 Caves des Lions blends of cabernet sauvignon and cabernet franc were layered and complex, with hints of dark cherry, cedar, and violets.

The 100% cabernet sauvignons from the same years exhibited incredible depth, velvety tannins, and a long, luxurious finish. Crafted entirely from free-run juice, these wines capture the essence of their Adelaida District estates, limestone-rich soils and meticulous winemaking.

Chappellet: Chappellet president David Francke and his wife Tammy offered an exceptional lineup that demonstrated the winery’s storied legacy in Napa Valley.

The 2023 Signature Chenin Blanc was a delightful surprise, offering floral aromas and a clean, mineral-driven palate. The 2021 Pritchard Hill Cabernet Sauvignon — Chappellet’s crown jewel — expressed bold tannins, deep fruit, and impeccable balance,

standing out among the evening’s offerings.

Far Niente and Nickel & Nickel: Bruce Mooers, Far Niente’s president of sales, brought a tasting experience that paired beautifully with the nearby carving station.

The 2023 Far Niente Napa Valley Chardonnay was crisp and vibrant, while the 2022 Nickel & Nickel De Carle Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon and 2022 Nickel & Nickel Fog Break Atlas Peak Cabernet Sauvignon highlighted the diversity of Napa’s subregions.

The De Carle was elegant, with red currant and fine tannins, while the Fog Break impressed with its intense dark fruit and savory earthiness. The 2018 Far Niente Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon rounded out the tasting, offering bold, balanced flavors that complemented the prime rib perfectly.

Ramey Wine Cellars: Ramey founder David Ramey and his wife Carla poured an impressive selection, emphasizing their focus on terroir-driven wines.

The 2021 Woolsey Road Russian River Valley Chardonnay was elegant and layered, with notes of

apple, pear, and a hint of hazelnut.

The 2017 Rogers Creek Shiraz delivered smoky complexity, showcasing Ramey’s mastery of Sonoma and Napa terroirs. The 2014 Annum Cabernet Sauvignon stood out for its balance, with black cherry, cedar, and a long, velvety finish.

ZD Wines: Teresa D’Aurizio, VP of marketing and sales at ZD Wines, pulled out all the stops to highlight ZD’s extraordinary Abacus Cabernet Sauvignon. This 26th bottling blends decades-old vintages, creating a wine with unparalleled depth and elegance.

At $800 per bottle, it was the showstopper of the evening. Other offerings, like the 2022 Carneros Reserve Chardonnay and 2013 Reserve Cabernet, further showcased ZD’s versatility and commitment to crafting exceptional wines.

Staglin Family: Winemaker Matt Peterson poured a trio of outstanding wines. The 2023 Salus Chardonnay was fresh and lively, with notes of tropical fruit and a creamy texture.

The 2021 Salus Cabernet Sauvignon delivered structured tannins with ripe plum and black currant, while the 2018 Sta-

glin Cabernet Sauvignon was opulent, with layers of dark fruit, cocoa, and a velvety finish with eucalyptus and mint undertones. Each wine reflected Staglin’s focus on sustainability and quality.

Hundred Acre: Dana Madison, Western Regional Sales Manager, presented a selection that captivated the palate. The 2021 Fortunate Son: The Dreamer Cabernet Sauvignon was rich and velvety, while the 2024 Summer Dreams Pinot Noir was vibrant and perfectly balanced.

No wine event is complete without cuisine to match the caliber of the

wines, and Chef Kelli Crosson’s culinary team delivered perfection. Guests were welcomed with sliders featuring Cardiff Crack, salmon salad on croissants, and portobello mushrooms. Inside the main room, an expansive charcuterie table with premium meats, cheeses, crackers, and dried fruits set the stage.

The carving station stole the spotlight with venison lollipops and spice-crusted prime rib, served with a creamy horseradish sauce that added the perfect touch.

Encinitas, city manager agree to part ways

City delays Quail Meadows appeal to mid-February

By Walker Armstrong ENCINITAS —

The Encinitas City Council unanimously authorized a mutual agreement ending Pamela Antil’s employment as city manager effective immediately during a Nov. 20 special meeting.

No cause was cited for the separation, which the city described as an amicable end to her contract. The council also authorized a severance package consistent with Antil’s employment agreement, according to a city release.

“It’s been my honor and pleasure to serve the Encinitas community,” Antil said.

Assistant City Manager Jennifer Campbell will assume the role of acting city manager while the council works with the city attorney and human resources department to find a permanent replacement. The city said Campbell will collaborate with city staff to

ensure current projects and services stay on track.

“During her tenure, Ms. Antil successfully took us through the adoption of the City’s first approved housing element, led the staff through the completion of the El Portal Underpass, Phases 1 and 2 of the Leucadia Streetscape project, and the opening of Pacific View Arts Center,”

Mayor Tony Kranz said in a statement.

“We appreciate Pam’s contributions to Encinitas and wish her the best in her future endeavors,”

In September 2020, Antil was hired following a nationwide search to replace Karen Brust, who retired. Antil was hired with a $250,000 base salary, monthly car and cellphone allowances, and $15,000 paid into a retirement plan.

In October 2023, the council approved a two-step raise for Antil, increasing her base salary to $295,009. The new employment contract stipulates that Antil’s

base salary will increase “at the same time and at the same percentage amount as other city unrepresented (non-union) management employees.”

The contract terms also extend her severance package to nine months, replacing the previous six-month provision, and require an annual performance review to be conducted “no later than July 1” of each fiscal year.

No further details about the separation were disclosed, and the city could not be reached for comment.

Prop 4 funds

The Encinitas City Council held a special meeting Nov. 19 to address stormwater management challenges and plan a strategy for pursuing newly available state funding to help pay for critical drainage projects in Leucadia.

After voters overwhelmingly approved Proposition 4, local governments, nonprofits and businesses across California will be eligible for loans and grants from a $10 billion

bond to help protect natural resources and support climate activities. This includes $1.1 billion for projects to address flood risks through dam repairs and stormwater reuse.

Mayor Tony Kranz described the meeting as a chance to help the incoming council identify projects eligible for Proposition 4 funding and to prepare projects that will help resolve the city’s ongoing stormwater drainage issues.

“My goal with this item is to tee up the opportunity for the new council to have information presented to them that might be valuable in identifying stormwater projects to apply for Proposition 4 grants,” Kranz said.

Kranz spotlighted two previously studied initiatives. The Jason Street Stormdrain Improvements project aims to eliminate chronic flooding, referred to as “Jason Street Lake,” by constructing a new 24-inch storm drain beneath the railroad tracks near North Vulcan Avenue and North Coast Highway 101 in Leucadia.

The proposed storm

drain system will include a curb inlet, a catch basin and new concrete pipes connecting the east and west sides of North Vulcan Avenue. Stormwater will be channeled under the railroad tracks to an existing cleanout, directing the flow northward and eventually to the ocean.

The other project, an underground detention storage facility at Leucadia Roadside Park, aligns with Proposition 4’s emphasis on stormwater harvesting, making it a strong candidate. The project proposes two potential systems to capture and store stormwater runoff.

Quail Meadows

The Encinitas City Council voted during a Nov. 20 meeting to postpone a decision on an appeal challenging the approval of the proposed Quail Meadows housing development, rescheduling the matter for further review on Feb. 12.

The project, set to be built along Quail Gardens Drive, includes a 448-unit apartment complex with 90 affordable housing units,

representing one of the city’s largest contributions to affordable housing.

The appeal was filed by the Supporters Alliance for Environmental Responsibility (SAFER) and Encinitas Citizens for Responsible Development. The groups cited concerns about environmental impacts, stormwater infrastructure and compliance with state and local regulations.

During the council meeting, Brian Flynn, representing SAFER, presented two main arguments. He claimed the project is not exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act and argued it is inconsistent with the city’s Local Coastal Program, making the approval of a Coastal Development Permit inappropriate.

“Because there is a discretionary Coastal Development Permit required for this project, this project triggers CEQA, regardless of the by-right label that it’s been given,” Flynn said, highlighting issues with wildlife assessments, air quality emissions, and cumulative environmental impacts. He urged the council to grant SAFER’s appeal unless these concerns are resolved.

Maria Miller, a spokesperson representing applicant Baldwin & Sons, defended the project’s compliance with state and local standards.

“We worked very closely with environmental agencies,” Miller said. “We walked the sites with them multiple times, every design iteration has been run through staff at the Coastal Commission and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife, so they’re very aware and supportive of the project.”

NATURE’S FRAME

Escondido photographer captures the lives of grebes

By Samantha Nelson

Nearly a decade ago, a routine walk around Lake Hodges transformed the life of an Escondido-based nature photographer.

In addition to serene water and the chorus of birdsong, Escondido resident Krisztina Scheeff stumbled upon an incredible sight: a bird with bright red eyes, stark black-andwhite plumage and a sharp beak seemingly walking across the water.

The bird was a grebe performing its signature water-walking courtship ritual — its feet moving so quickly that it appeared to skip across the surface.

“I was fascinated by them,” Scheeff said.

From that day forward, Scheeff frequently returned to Lake Hodges, photographing and studying the grebes that inhabit the area. What began as a personal interest evolved into a professional passion, leading her to leave her job as a software engineer and launch her business, KS Nature Photography.

Today, Scheeff is a recognized figure in the world of wildlife photography, with her work appearing in National Geographic, Birders Digest, American Wild Magazine, San Diego Audubon Society and many others. She was also named a finalist in the National Audubon Society's Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition.

Earlier this year, Scheeff served as a grebe expert for the BBC Natural History Unit’s ambitious three-year project, “The Secret Lives of Animals,” documenting 77 species across 24 countries. Narrated by Hugh Bonneville, the 10-

part documentary is set to premiere globally on Dec. 18 on Apple TV+.

While Scheeff has led photography tours around the world, including trips to Scotland, Costa Rica and the Galapagos islands, Lake Hodges remains a constant source of inspiration. She always returns to check on the grebes, prompting many of her clients to refer to her as the “Grebe Whisperer.”

“Lake Hodges is one of my favorite places,” said Scheeff, who photographs most everything around the lake during her routine walks.

San Diego County, a biodiversity hotspot, is home to more than 500 bird species, with 247 making appearances at Lake Hodges, according to Friends of Lake Hodges. Both western and Clark's grebes are a year-round presence at the lake, mating during the winter months.

The waterbird's remarkable ability to “walk” on water is a mating display, a synchronized dance performed by potential mates.

“It’s like that bar scene in a movie where they go on the dance floor to meet somebody,” Scheeff said.

Grebes achieve this feat by moving their feet at incredible speeds — 15 to 20 steps per second, far outpacing the fastest human’s five to six steps per second.

Scheeff now shares her love of photography and nature with others, leading tours and workshops locally and internationally. Her workshops emphasize not only technical skills and patience but also the importance of ethical wildlife photography.

“Some people might say, ‘Oh, I want a flying shot, so I’ll chase this bird,’” Scheeff said, explaining what not to do when taking photos of birds and other animals. “You have to be careful – it’s always about the animal’s welfare.”

with Girls Who Click, an organization encouraging more women to pursue nature photography, a field still dominated by men.

Scheeff is also involved

Her deep respect for the natural world stems from her summers in Hungary as a teenager when she hiked and learned about wildlife. After earning a degree in animal science and agricultural engineering from the University of Godollo, she continued her studies at Purdue University.

For Scheeff, her photography is more than art — it’s a way to connect with and honor the natural world.

Boys hoops: Lancers, Knights eye title runs

By Noah Perkins

It’s that time of year again — turkey’s smoked, yams are candied, and the three ball is ready to fly. With basketball season tipping off, The Coast News took a trip around North County to find out who’s who on the hardwood for the upcoming prep boys basketball season.

Freelance

Carlsbad

Coach: Clark Allard

Key Player: Jake Hall

Departures: Tony Duckett, Jael Martin

Previous Record: 30-3, 10-0

Outlook: In 2024, the Lancers took home the San Diego Section Open Division Championship. In the regional semifinal, in the California high school game of the year (or decade or millennia), Carlsbad pushed eventual state champion Harvard-Westlake to the brink before finally succumbing, 73-72.

All-world scorer Tony Duckett, now at USD, missed a game-winner by inches — a moment he recently told The Coast News he still finds himself thinking about.

Losing Duckett and big man Jael Martin is an obstacle. However, senior guard Jake Hall, the team’s leading scorer, returns.

Hall doesn’t blow anyone away with his athleticism or size, but he puts the ball in the bucket as well as anyone in the county, averaging over 18 points per game last year (which is actually down from his sophomore season, where he averaged an eye-popping 26 points per game). The Lancers remain in the mix for a section championship.

El Camino

Coach: Derrick Jones

Key Players: Logan Ardent

Departures: Isaiah Pomare

Previous Record: 16-16, 4-6

Outlook: Uncommitted senior guard Logan Ardent is the engine. He is a physical defender that can create chaos. Ardent also fills up the cup, averaging 10.9 points per game as a junior. Last season, El Camino played .500 basketball without a dominant scorer. Ardent figures to be the guy in 2025.

Fun Fact: In the 1990s, Chris Dade bounced between El Camino, Oceanside and Vista high school basketball teams before playing as a guard at Cal State Fullerton. He later became an all-star in Icelandic professional basketball.

La Costa Canyon

Coach: David Cassaw

Key Player: Mason Jones

Departures: Ryan Quain

Previous Record: 20-9, 6-4

Outlook: La Costa Canyon head coach David Cassaw has won plenty of games with the Mavericks over the past 15 years. Last season, the team advanced to the second round of the Division II state playoffs.

At 6-foot-7, 240 pounds, junior center Mason Jones is poised for a big season. As always, LCC will likely be

in the thick of things come February.

Torrey Pines

Coach: John Olive Key Player: Cody Shen Deparures: Matin Madadkar

Previous Record: 21-9, 8-2

Outlook: Torrey Pines graduated its leading scorer, rebounder, and assist man, but coming off a 20-win season, there is much to be optimistic about. Falcons senior Cody Shen is a big guard, primed for a breakout season after averaging 10.3 points and three rebounds per game last year as a junior.

Six-foot-four junior Tevaris Green scored 25 points per game on 40% from deep at an October showcase. Center Zain Mehio also returns.

Avocado

San Dieguito

Coach: Jason Stewart

Key Player: Jack Melekian

Departure: Jaxen Sladavic

Previous Record: 5-22, 0-10

Outlook: After winning the program’s first Avocado League title in 57 years in 2022, San Dieguito was thrown into the deep end last year after being moved to the Freelance League.

The Mustangs struggled in their debut, going 0-10 in the conference and 5-22 on the season. The good news is they are back in the Avocado League. The bad news is they graduated three of their top players.

Fun Fact: SDA Alum

John Fairchild is credited with being the first NBA player born in San Diego County.

Vista

Coach: Anthony Bolton

Key Player: Gavin Guinn

Departures: Ramses Cathles

Previous Record: 22-7, 5-3

Outlook: The Panthers won 20 games a season ago and returned most of their core contributors. Seniors Gavin Guinn, Ashaun Mitchell, CJ Coleman and Cody Myers bring experience to the floor. Consistency is the word of the day for Vista.

Rancho Buena Vista

Coach: Aaron Abrams

Key Player: CJ Aldrich

Departures: Trent Lotito

Previous Record: 19-12, 8-0

Outlook: The Longhorns came tantalizingly close to the San Diego Section Championship last season, losing by 15 to University City in the Division II Championship game. RBV’s high-scoring, 6-foot-1 junior guard and captain CJ Aldrich returns. Last season as a sophomore, Aldrich averaged 22.4 points, 5.3 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game.

Oceanside

Coach: Brad Hollingsworth

Key Player: Tan Nguyen

Departures: Evan Wolf, Quavon Montgomery, Kalen Kaye

walking double-double, averaging 24.5 points and 10.3 rebounds per game last year. Plus, the team added size, with Jayden Bringas making his varsity debut.

Coastal

Santa Fe Christian

Coach: Matt Carlino

Key Player: Dax Hall

Departures: Jayden Luckett, Brycen MacKenzie

Previous Record: 21-9, 11-1

Previous Record: 11-16, 6-4

Last season, a young Pirates team went 11-16. More seasoned, the Pirates’ sharpshooting trio of Tan Nguyen, Zay Solomon and Wyatt Cann are dangerous when hot. Oceanside senior point guard Nguyen is undersized but pugnacious as a defender and can shoot opposing teams out of games from three.

Fun Fact: Pirates quarterback Joesph Vinup doubles as a guard off the bench.

Valley

Escondido

Coach: Cameron Lee

Key Player: Maddox Mendoza

Departures: Mitchell Lomeli, Ricky Saldana, Jack Hughes

Previous Record: 19-13, 5-5

Outlook: The Cougars struggled in 2023-24, winning 10 and dropping 18. While 6-foot-5 center Maddox Mendoza is a bright spot, more than likely, 2025 is a developmental year for Escondido High.

Sage Creek

Coach: Brandon Dowdy

Key Player: Elijah Stephens

Departures: Zac Peterson

Previous Record: 20-11, 4-6

Outlook: Sage Creek, perhaps more than any other team in North County, is a true dark horse to make a deep run in the state playoffs. The combination of seniors Elias Samady and Elijah Stephens is overwhelming. Stephens is a

Outlook: The Eagles had a successful 2023-24, winning 20 games and advancing to the second round of the Division I San Diego Section playoffs.

SFC graduated both the biggest player on the roster, Jayden Luckett and the team’s best scorer, Brycen MacKenzie. Tough shoes to fill. Junior guard Dax Hall returns after hitting a fortuitous growth spurt.

Hall is a playmaker with the ball in his hands. As a sophomore, Hall averaged 14.1 points, 5.7 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game.

Palomar

San Marcos

Coach: Dante Carrey

Key Players: Jalen Williams, Richie Ramirez

Departures: Mazen El Bissat, Derek Tuason

Previous Record: 26-8, 8-2

Outlook: Dante Carrey returns for his 19th season as San Marcos head coach –that’s on top of the four years he spent as the Knights’ point guard. In 2023-24, the team won 26 games, including four in the postseason, before a Division III regional semifinal loss to Bosco Tech ended the season.

Unselfish big man Mazen El Bissat and guard Derek Tuason graduated. Those absences would be felt more acutely if not for the ascent of sophomore point guard Richie Ramirez. “(Ramirez) has that dog mentality like I had defensively, so we related that way,” Carrey said. Williams and Ramirez

are a two-headed monster in the backcourt and both are capable of scoring at will on any given night.

Last year, Ramirez averaged 13.4 points, three rebounds and three assists per game, while Williams averaged 17.2 points, four rebounds and three assists per game. Come playoff time, San Marcos will be a tough out.

Mission Hills

Coach: Curtis Hofmeister

Key Player: Austin Seeman

Departures: Jack Jillson

Previous Record: 21-9, 9-1

Outlook: The team’s 21 wins for a first-place finish in the Palomar League didn’t translate to postseason success in 2023-24. A pair of transfers from San Marcos add depth, and the team is known for defense. Is there enough scoring to win games in February in a crowded field?

Fun Fact: Freshman Daxton Hyde is the younger brother of former Vista big-man Cyprian Hyde. The younger Hyde is currently in the low six-foot range, but with his brother standing 6 feet, 11 inches, a future growth spurt seems possible (or likely).

Western

Cathedral Catholic

Coach: Graham Bousley

Key Player: Tyler Vosburgh Departures: Ryan Enos, Ty Ingram

Previous Record: 19-10, 6-2

Outlook: As the old adage goes, “You can’t teach height.” The Dons have an overwhelming amount of size with freshman Boone Thompson (6-foot-7), junior Tyler Vosburgh (6-foot-7) and a frontcourt rotation featuring multiple 6-foot-5 players. However, it will be very difficult to overcome the loss of center Ryan Enos to graduation and leading scorer Ty Ingram to the transfer por-

tal.

Girls hoops: Dons, Pirates section favorites

By Noah Perkins

As the 2024-25 high school basketball season tips off, we take a look at North County’s girls’ teams and the players to watch as they aim for league titles and postseason glory.

Coastal

Torrey Pines

Coach: Scott Herrin

Key Players: Harper Kelly, Lily Oliva

Departures: Grace Trusso, Zoe Lau

Previous Record: 16-14, 8-2

Outlook: A heartbreaking overtime loss to Oceanside ended the season in 2023-2024 for Torrey Pines. Always a tough out, the Falcons look to bounce back with Harper Kelly and Lily Oliva leading the offense.

Oliva averaged 8.9 points per game last season but scored 13 points in the Falcons’ 66-22 win over Canyon Crest Academy to start the 2024-25 season on Nov. 19.

La Costa Canyon

Coach: Malcolm Warfield

Key Player: Ali DiBenedetto

Departures: Kierra Colestock

Previous Record: 16-14, 8-2

Outlook: First-year head coach Malcolm Warfield takes over for Ashley Fleming, now the head coach at MiraCosta College. Last season, the Mavericks boasted an impressive eight league wins and an opening-round San Diego Section victory over Academy of Our Lady of Peace in Division I.

Last season, Mavs sophomore Ali DiBenedetto averaged 10 points per game and she will be looking to build upon that effort. But with a new head coach and the graduation of high scorer Kierra Colestock, it wouldn’t be a surprise if the Mavs had a reset year.

Oceanside

Coach: Brian Burnett

Key Player: Martina Griffin

Departures: Jayla Morgan

Previous Record: 21-10, 6-4

Outlook: The Pirates made a deep run at the state level last year, largely behind Martina Griffin’s scoring.

The team has added size with six-foot-two sophomore center Brooklyn Davis and six-foot sophomore center Martha Wong. Alana Hoskins, an additional guard coming via El Camino, gives head coach Brian Burnett a significant amount of firepower. Oceanside is a section championship favorite.

Sage Creek

Coach: Benjamin Lin

Key Players: Addison Femrite, Claire Novak

Departures: Harmony Lawler

Previous Record: 20-11, 4-6

Outlook: Sage Creek is coming off a deep postseason run, but with walking double-double Harmony Lawler graduated, an encore is going to be difficult. Femrite averaged 6.2 points and 4.6 rebounds per game, and Novak averaged five points per game.

Carlsbad

Coach: Donna Huhn

Key Player: Georgia Hawk

Departures: None

Previous Record: 15-14, 4-6

Carlsbad returns nearly its full team from a season ago. As a freshman, Georgia Hawk scored nearly 20 points per game, with a season-high 27 against Imperial. In 17 games, she broke the 20-point mark.

As a freshman last year, Hawk averaged 18.4 points and five rebounds per contest through 25 games, finishing with 534 total points for Lancers.

The team played .500 ball on the season, but with Hawk and the rest of the team a year older, they should add a few to the win column.

Western

Cathedral Catholic

Coach: Jackie Turpin

Key Player: Maddie Moeller

Departures: Alana Brackett

Previous Record: 20-5, 7-1

Outlook: Finishing 7-1 in the Western League, the Dons’ postseason run ended in the regional semifinals with a 54-51 loss to Granada Hills Charter.

Maddie Moeller is a complete player. She has size, creates in transition, rebounds well, has good peripheral vision as a passer and can shoot.

Last season, Moeller averaged 17.5 points, eight rebounds, 4.5 assists and 2.9 steals per game, boasting a 41% field goal percentage.

With top scorer Alana Brackett gone, the Dons will need more from Moeller to repeat as San Diego Section Division I champions and make another deep playoff run.

Avocado

San Dieguito Academy

Coach: Aubree Smithey

Key Player: Romy

Malmquist

Departures: Cami Currie

Previous Record: 6-17, 0-10

Outlook: A tough 20232024 for SDA, who managed only six wins. Senior Romy Malmquist is a talented guard who averaged 10 points and four rebounds per game last season, and junior Lilian Malewicz is a tenacious rebounder, grabbing eight boards per game last year.

More than likely, the team steps neither backward nor forward this season.

Rancho Buena Vista

Coach: Landon Cardenas

Key Player: Camille Dake

Departures: Hana El-Tohamy

Previous Record: 19-12, 8-0

Outlook: Scoring threats Kylie Salazar (5foot-9) and 6-foot Camille Dake give RBV a very big and versatile backcourt. Last season, Dake averaged 14.7 points and 6.7 rebounds per game. Six-foot senior forward Tiaira Richardson added even more size and averaged 5 rebounds per game last year. Length and experience will take the Longhorns a long way.

Vista

Coach: Pat Moramarco

Key Player: Isabella Mosley

Departures: Amelia Sciacca

Previous Record: 22-7, 5-3

Vista looks to build on a strong 2023-24. Difficult, to say the least, after graduating Sciacca, the team’s top scorer and rebounder who averaged 14.2 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 4.1 assists per game over 51 career games. This year, Mosley looks to be a key contributor after averaging 14.4 points, 5.5 rebounds, and 3.6 steals per game in her sophomore season.

El Camino

Coach: James Greer

Key Player: Aleigha Tatum

Departures: Justine Stewart, Alana Hoskins

Previous Record: 7-19, 1-7

With multiple losses by forfeit and only one win in league play, the Wildcats didn’t put their best foot forward last year.

Alana Hoskins, a versatile guard with active hands as a defender, solid shooting range and the ability to score in transition, was the bright spot.

Unfortunately for El Camino, Hoskins transferred to neighboring Oceanside.

Palomar

Mission Hills

Coach: Christopher Kroesch

Key Player: Izzy Medina

Departures: Mariah Brown, Kyara Walter

Previous Record: 23-9, 10-0

Outlook: Undefeated in league play and boasting an impressive Open Division Section Championship win over La Jolla Country Day, Mission Hills was an elite team in San Diego County last year. The rub, they graduated their top five players.

Freelance

Santa Fe Christian

Coach: Vickie Carrington

Key Players: Piper Lenihan, Jennifer Stanion

Departures: Elizabeth Bickley

Previous Record: 18-13, 8-2

Outlook 2025: As a sophomore center, Jennifer Stanion had an Angel Reese-like season, averaging 14 points and 13 rebounds per game – six of those being offensive. Also returning is high-scoring senior guard Piper Lenihan, who averaged 19.4 points per game during her junior campaign. Winners of 18 games, SFC went all the way to the Division IV San Diego Section Championship in 2023-24. The Eagles look even better in 2025.

Valley

Escondido

Coach: Chris Williams

Key Player: Anaya McGlory

Departures: Denise Sanchez

Previous record: 19-13, 5-5

Outlook 2025: Division V San Diego Section Champions a year ago, the Cougars have enough roster continuity to repeat in 2025. Last season, Anaya McGlory was a top scorer and rebounder for Escondido, averaging 11 points per game and 8.2 rebounds per game. McGlory also led the team with an average of two blocked shots per game.

The Cougars will be looking for McGlory to step up to replace leading scorer Denise Sanchez, who graduated. Sanchez led the team last season with 410 total points, averaging 13 points, 4.6 steals and 6.8 rebounds per game.

SAGE CREEK senior Addison Femrite, left, looks to lead the Bobcats after losing top scorer Harmony Lawler to graduation. Carlsbad sophomore Georgia Hawk, center, returns after an explosive freshman debut, leading the Lancers in scoring with an average of 18.4 points per game. Escondido junior Anaya McGlory, right, looks to take the reins for the Cougars after the departure the team’s leading scorer, Denise Sanchez. Good news is McGlory was second to only Sanchez in much of the scoring categories. Photos by Steve Sidell and Rudy Schmoke

Creating holiday decorations from nature’s gifts

When searching for a holiday decoration idea, I usually search my bookshelves for the tried and true versions of Martha Stewart Living Magazine and her holiday DIY books for inspiration. This year, I found this simple but beautifully elegant idea on Martha's website.

I love the “Shiny Natural Materials Ornament,” which uses natural materials from our surrounding landscape.

CREATING SHINY ORNAMENTS FROM NATURAL MATERIALS

To begin your holiday activity, search the woods and parks in North County for natural materials. What you are searching for is trees or shrubs that have unusual pods or leaves that have fallen to the ground or are easily accessible.

I found that the pods of a magnolia tree, acorns from a pin oak, or the seed pods of a bittersweet shrub will work for this project.

My most unusual find was the pods of the Sweet Gum tree, which not only has a rather danger-

DECORATIONS: For the

ideas, look for the

ous-looking round pod with prickly spikes but also has a long stem that makes the perfect hanging device.

One of my favorite shapes is the leaf of the Gingko tree, which looks like a flat butterfly. These amazing trees can be over one hundred years old, so if you have a friend or know of a specimen in a park, seek them out.

Pine cones are certainly more easily obtained in all parts of North County. As you drive through the older areas of your town, you might find a grove of towering pines, with the tallest found on properties of at

least twenty years.

your

The variety that is most successful for this project is the cone of the Coulter Pine or Douglas Fir, the tall standing varieties with long, airy needles and graceful branches.

HOW TO MAKE YOUR SHINEY ORNAMENTS

Natural materials: Gather all the natural materials you found in your search and place them on a large, clean table. Cover the table with a disposable cloth. This project is best done outdoors or in a garage. Paint supplies: Two

spray cans of Metallic Silver and Metallic Gold paint. Acrylic paint can also be used but must be of outdoor quality, such as those from Golden Paints, www.goldenpaints.com. Acrylic paint is used for painting by hand with a brush.

Cardboard boxes: Before spraying the paint, place a few of the natural materials in a small cardboard box to keep the paint from spreading all over the room. Ideally, this could be done outdoors or in a garage.

Process: Line your seeds and pods up in the box and spray each pod or

leaf individually. Allow to dry, then turn over once or twice until all sides are covered. Poke the metal hanger through the top of the specimen and hang it on your tree or wreath.

LEARN FROM THE EXPERTS

I had the pleasure of working with a fellow horticulturist, Gary Barnum, at the Clark Foundation Greenhouse in Cooperstown, New York. He and his staff decorated the historical Main Street at Christmas, and his work became known all over the country. According to Gary, “We

really enjoyed creating an old-fashioned, but new holiday look at the same time. A horse chestnut or a walnut painted gold, with a few pomegranates placed on a traditional pine wreath, create a look at is memorable.”

Samples of his work can be found at www.thisiscoopertown.

Have fun creating your own holiday decorations, and send us pictures of your results! Contact me at janosgarden@gmail.com.

Tips for time-crunched hosts

By StatePoint

While gathering for Thanksgiving is intended to be a joyous occasion, everyone who has hosted the feast knows it can also come with a lot of stress, and expenses.

The good news is that whether you’re a Gen Z-er hosting your first Friendsgiving on a budget or you’re a busy family preparing for guests, there is a lot to be thankful for this year.

Here are a few ways to eliminate stress around holiday prep:

1. Start Early: Get your shopping and other hosting tasks done in advance. For example, don’t wait until the lasy minnute to tidy up your home.

Doing a deep clean in advance can help ensure your kitchen is organized and ready for the big day, and that guests feel comfortable and welcomed. Set the table and do any decorating you have planned the evening beforehand.

AUDIT

with the exception of Trustee Phan Anderson, rejected this idea.

“It is not our job, no matter our expertise, to do the work that we pay — with tax dollars — our staff to do. In fact, doing so calls into question the independence of these efforts and it undermines our staff’s ability to do this job effectively,” Trustee Jane Lea Smith said.

The district’s request for proposals called for the audit to focus on several topics, including foundations’ financial statements,

2. Save on Festive Flair: You can further reduce costs by going DIY with items like centerpieces and seasonal wreaths, or by shopping with retailers offering great value, which provides solutions for flowers, décor, wine and other hosting essentials.

expenditure and revenue reporting, verification of fund balances, and fee structures and their relations to costs.

The RFP also only required an audit of financials from the most recent fiscal year but included a caveat that the selected auditing firm could expand the scope to include other years if deemed necessary.

The CCA Foundation is unique among other school foundations due to its donation allocation practices; 25% of each direct donation to a club or program is allocated to a larger fund for the program’s department.

3. Rely on Friends and Family: Don’t be shy about asking friends and family to contribute food or beverages for your holiday meal.

While the foundation states that this 25% allocation benefits the club originally targeted for the donation by going toward larger program needs, some parents have said they feel like they don’t get to control where their donations go. The foundation’s high salary for its executive director has also raised eyebrows. Former director Joanne Couvrette received the highest pay among all the district’s foundations at $161,000 annually. District officials did not state when the audit would be completed; however, the contract with the audit firm runs through March.

Suspicion Confirmed

Customs officials at the Lima, Peru, airport spotted something unusual about a man boarding a flight on Nov. 8, The New York Times reported.

The unnamed 28-yearold, a citizen of South Korea, was returning home with a planned stopover in France, but he was notable because of his extremely swollen stomach, officials said.

When asked to lift his shirt, he revealed a creepy, crawly cargo: 320 tarantulas, 110 centipedes and nine bullet ants. Each bug had its own plastic bag, all of which were attached to two girdles wrapped around the man’s body.

The 35 adult tarantulas were each about the size of a human hand. All the bugs are native to the Amazon region of Peru, said Walter Silva, a government wildlife specialist. He added that the discovery was “part of the illegal wildlife trafficking that moves millions of dollars.”

The tarantulas are on the country’s endangered species list. The man was arrested with charges pending. [New York Times, 11/16/2024]

Field Report

Norwegian fisherman Harald Engen got a message on Nov. 11 that his 32foot boat’s trawl nets had

snagged something most unusual, the Anchorage Daily News reported.

Turns out the USS Virginia, a 377-foot nuclear-powered submarine, had been chugging away from Tromso, Norway, with a Norwegian Coast Guard vessel escorting it, when its propellers became entangled with the nets. As a result, the Coast Guard had to cut the nets to free the submarine. They assured Engen that he would be reimbursed for his nets. [Anchorage Daily News, 11/18/2024]

Can’t Possibly Be True

KSNW-TV reported on Nov. 17 that Gina Morgan and her husband, Ronnie, felt double the bad luck when they both struck a deer while driving. Not such a weird occurrence near Wichita, Kansas -- but Gina and Ronnie hit the SAME deer while driving in different directions.

“We were in two different vehicles, driving in two different directions, and we managed to hit the same deer,” Gina explained. “It was just at the point where the sun had gone down.”

Damage to Gina’s car was estimated at $6,000; Ronnie’s car had a push bar, so it sustained less impact. [KSNW, 11/17/2024]

Gimme a Sign

Transportation workers in Boulder, Colorado, had to go out on Nov. 19 to take down some “freelance” road signs that had mysteriously appeared in the city, 9NewsTV reported.

The signs, which ap-

peared in four different locations, warned drivers to “Get Off Your Damn Phone” and “Don’t Kill Any Kids Today,” along with other messages.

Boulder Police spokesperson Dionne Waugh said the signs are professionally made and installed, but officials don’t know who put them up.

“I’m guessing that it’s a concerned citizen that is kind of fed up with the behavior they’re seeing in their neighborhoods,” said police commander Darren Fladung. He suggested there are more appropriate ways to get those messages out. [9News, 11/19/2024]

Religious Message

Why settle for a middleman when you can confess your sins straight to Jesus Christ himself? Worshippers at St. Peter’s Church in Lucerne, Switzerland, are baring their souls to a hologram Jesus powered by AI, the Daily Mail reported on Nov. 20.

And already, at least two-thirds of the people who have received the image’s grace have called it a “spiritual” experience. “Though it’s a machine, it gave me so much advice,” one person said -- like, “Your task is not to judge, but to accompany with love.”

The AI Jesus can even speak 100 different languages. It was trained at the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts using the New Testament. [Daily Mail, 11/20/2024]

It’s Come to This Sweden’s minister for

gender equality and work life, Paulina Brandberg, has spoken in the past about her extreme phobia of bananas, The Guardian reported on Nov. 14.

But recently leaked emails have made clear just how far her staff will go to protect her from the yellow fruits. For instance, staff will specify that “no traces of bananas must be in the room” before she arrives.

Brandberg said she was getting professional help with her phobia, but Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson backed her up: “I am disturbed when a hardworking cabinet minister is almost reduced to a phobia and people make fun of it.” [Guardian, 11/14/2024]

Alarming Headline

Passengers aboard an American Airlines flight from Milwaukee to Dallas on Nov. 19 went full-on MacGyver with an unruly Canadian passenger, ABC7-TV reported.

While the plane was in flight, the passenger asked a flight attendant to open the cabin door; when his request was denied, he became agitated. He allegedly rushed toward the door, striking the flight attendant, before other passengers subdued him, eventually duct-taping his wrists and ankles and laying him on his stomach on the floor.

Airport police and FBI personnel met him at the gate and took him for a medical evaluation. [ABC7, 11/21/2024]

Weird Science

University of Richmond professor and neuroscientist Kelly Lambert has been training rats to drive tiny cars since 2019, the New York Post reported.

“Unexpectedly, we found that the rats had an intense motivation for their driving training, often jumping into the car and revving the ‘lever engine’ before their vehicle hit the road,” Lambert said.

She and her fellow scientists concluded that the rats’ excitement was a Pavlovian response to treats and operating the vehicles -- but even when the treats were removed, they were ready to put the pedal to the metal.

“They remind us that planning, anticipating and enjoying the ride may be key to a healthy brain,” Lambert said. [NY Post, 11/17/2024]

Great Art

The duct-taped banana “artwork” just won’t turn brown and mushy and find its way into the bin. On Nov. 20 in New York City, Sotheby’s sold the latest iteration for $6.2 million to Justin Sun, founder of the cryptocurrency platform TRON, WFAA-TV reported.

Bidding started at $800,000. Sun said the art “represents a cultural phenomenon that bridges the worlds of art, memes and the cryptocurrency community.

Who Knew?

Fox News host Jesse Watters has laid down the law regarding man-to-man birthday etiquette, the Independent reported.

On his show, “Jesse Watters Primetime,” on Nov. 20, the host said he would have wished President Joe Biden a happy birthday, but that would break his “rules.” “Men don’t wish men happy birthdays,” he said. He revealed the rule earlier this fall, when he said wishing another Fox host happy birthday “would not be manly.” Watters also apparently has rules about men eating soup and ice cream in public -- “It’s not a good look.” [Independent, 11/21/2024]

News You Can Use

Mourning the end of your vacation? Not to worry! ItalyCommunica is bottling (or canning) the AIR from Lake Como in northern Italy, CNN reported, and selling it for $11. Each can allegedly contains 400 milliliters of “100% authentic air” that tourists can open at home and then repurpose the can as a souvenir pen holder.

... In the coming days, I will personally eat the banana as part of this unique artistic experience, honoring its place in both art history and popular culture.”

SUPERIOR COURT OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA FOR THE COUNTY OF ORANGE

In Re BEACHWOOD MOTEL LITIGATION, Case No. 30-2022-01261800-CU-CR-CXC

NOTICE OF CERTIFICATION OF CLASS ACTION TO: ALL PERSONS WHO RESIDED AT THE BEACHWOOD MOTEL FOR AT LEAST 28 CONSECUTIVE DAYS AND MOVED OUT, OR CHECKED OUT AND RE-REGISTERED, BEFORE 30 CONSECUTIVE DAYS OF OCCUPANCY AT ANY TIME BETWEEN MAY 23, 2018 AND OCTOBER 4, 2024

YOU ARE HEREBY NOTIFIED that the Court granted class certification of the following Class:

All persons who currently reside or formerly resided at the Beachwood Motel for at least 28 consecutive days and moved out, or checked out and reregistered, before the expiration of 30 consecutive days of occupancy from May 23, 2018 through October 4, 2024.

The Court appointed Gerald S. Ohn of Law Offices of Gerald S. Ohn, APC and Yashdeep Singh of Yash Law Group as co-class counsel. Their contact information is listed below.

The lawsuit alleges that Defendants required guests at the Beachwood Motel to move out, or check out and re-register, every 28 days. The lawsuit also alleges Defendants used threats, intimidation, or coercion, including forcing guests to vacate the hotel on the 28th consecutive day, to enforce the policy. Plaintiff alleges that Defendants’ conduct violated California law and that the Class Members are entitled to recover money for the violations. There has been no determination of liability and Defendants deny any wrongdoing.

Defendants have produced records showing who stayed in a unit at the Beachwood Motel for at least 28 consecutive days between May 23, 2018 and October 4, 2024. But Defendants’ records may not be complete. If you did not receive a Notice by mail regarding the class certification, then your name is not on the list of Class Members or there was no valid address for you. Either way, if you believe you should be included in the Class, you must notify Class Counsel (identified below) as soon as possible.

If you fall within the Class definition and do nothing, you will remain part of the Class and will have the possibility of getting money or benefits from the lawsuit. Regardless of whether Plaintiff wins or loses the trial, you will not be able to file your own lawsuit against Defendants about the same legal claims that are the subject of this lawsuit, unless you request to be excluded from the Class by the deadline below

The deadline to request exclusion from the Class is January 11, 2025. To be excluded, you must send an “Exclusion Request” in the form of a letter sent by mail, stating that you want to be excluded from this class action lawsuit. You must include your name and address, and sign the letter. You must mail your Exclusion Request postmarked by January 11, 2025, to Radmer v. Beachwood Motel, c/o Simpluris, PO Box 25226, Santa Ana, CA 92799.

The Court will exclude the Class Member if he or she so requests by the specified date. The judgment in this case, whether favorable or not, will bind all Class Members who do not request exclusion by the deadline above. Any Class Member who does not request exclusion may, if the Member desires, enter an appearance through counsel.

You may write, email, or call Class Counsel at:

Nuclear disaster waiting to happen

An open letter to our North County community, from the Samuel Lawrence Foundation Board of Directors

The Samuel Lawrence Foundation (SLF) is a 501(c) (3) nonprofit that promotes community access to science, education, and the arts. A key focus of our outreach is addressing the health and safety concerns surrounding the potential leaking of toxic radioactive waste at San Onofre.

We care deeply about solving the long-term safe storage of radioactive waste, aka spent nuclear fuel, for several critical reasons:

ENVIRONMENTAL AND PUBLIC HEALTH IMPERATIVE

The accumulation of nearly 200 million pounds of spent nuclear fuel (aka radioactive waste) across 35 U.S. states poses a significant and growing threat to public health and the environment. The San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS) case exemplifies this danger, with 3.55 million pounds of radioactive waste stored precariously close to the Pacific Ocean, major population centers, and critical infrastructure, located on two earthquake faults and in tsunami zone.

The radioactive waste is stored in a 5/8” thin wall stainless steel canisters which are encased in a concrete overpack.

Thin-wall canisters, by design, continuously stream various types of radiation including gamma and neutron radiation out the air vents of their concrete overpacks -- even when there are no cracks in the canisters. The thin-wall canisters cannot and do not stop neutron or gamma radiation from being released into the surrounding atmosphere.

When water / fog enters the vents of the concrete overpack, the thinwall canisters create new radiation, such as radioac-

spent canisters LONG-TERM CONCERNS

• Persistent radioactivity lasting thousands to millions of years

• Genetic damage and increased cancer risks for future generations

NATIONAL SECURITY AND ECONOMIC IMPLICATIONS

Solving this challenge has far-reaching consequences beyond environmental protection:

• Infrastructure Vulnerability: The proximity of waste storage to major transportation arteries and military bases poses significant security risks.

• Economic Burden: The $4.7 billion decommissioning process at SONGS alone demonstrates the enormous financial strain of managing nuclear waste.

• Energy Policy Impact: The unresolved waste issue hinders the development of nuclear energy as a carbon-neutral power source.

This is the first in a series of articles that SLF will be publishing in The Coast News about radioactive waste issue at San Onofre. If you’d like to learn more about the nuclear waste stored at San Onofre, please visit SamuelLawrenceFoundation.org and kindly support us on Giving Tuesday, Dec 3, 2024.

WATER sources

SD Water Authority

A new report from the San Diego Economic Development Corp. (EDC), “Manufacturing in San Diego: Local Impact, Global Reach,” shows the positive effect of the manufacturing sector on our regional economy.

With $47 billion in economic impact across San Diego County, including more than 120,000 good-paying and low-barrier jobs, manufacturing is a cornerstone industry from San Ysidro to Oceanside.

The EDC’s report — sponsored by the Water Authority — highlights the outsized impact of small businesses in the manufacturing sector, careers that pay 31% more than the average regional salary, and the broad range of related industries helping to grow manufacturing in San Diego County. Yet it’s not just about the sector itself but the broader impact it has across the region.

tive water and radioactive carbon particles from the neutrons bombardment of the water and carbon-based particles within the surrounding air. That’s why we say “It’s Everywhere!” when referring to radiation coming from San Onofre. San Onofre has frequent fog. Once the fog flows through the air vents it becomes radioactive. How much radioactive fog are you potentially breath-

ing? Truth be told, the NRC has waived that requirement so nuclear facilities do not measure the radioactive water or radioactive carbon.

IMMEDIATE RISKS

• Potential radiation exposure from accidents or natural disasters

• Contamination of water sources and food chains

• Zirconium fire hazards in densely packed

team impressed guests with lamb and mushroom flatbreads baked to perfection at 700 degrees.

Another room offered fresh oysters and colossal shrimp. Chef Crosson’s team ensured every dish elevated the evening. Reflecting on the night, Beyond the Cellar was a wine lover’s paradise. With extraordinary wines, engaging winery representatives, and impeccable food in an unbeatable setting, it was truly a highlight of my decade in wine writing.

Few of those jobs — or other economic benefits — would exist without the safe and reliable water supplies provided by the San Diego County Water Authority and its member agencies. While sustainable water sources are often taken for granted, they support virtually every manufacturing process in one way or the other, from the region’s famous craft beers to the water used in biotech labs.

To San Diego City Councilmember Raul Campillo, these kinds of jobs have a huge impact for workers in our region.

“That means you’re putting kids through college,” Campillo said at an event unveiling the report.

“That means you’re inventing devices that save lives. That means you’re bringing people here to see what San Diego has to offer and that helps everybody.”

“When factoring in supply chain activities and consumer spending from wages, the sector supports an additional 146,000 jobs across the county,” the report said. “This means that for every 100 jobs added in manufacturing, another 121 jobs are created elsewhere in the economy.”

“Nearly 1 in 10 private sector jobs in the region is a manufacturing job,” Eduardo Velasquez, EDC Senior Director, Research and Economic Development, said.

While the high cost of housing and the lack of developable space does hinder the sector’s ability for bigger growth, the companies in the sector are among the most innovative in the region and are dedicated to finding unique ways to expand even with those constraints.

If anything, I wish it lasted an hour longer to visit every booth. For anyone passionate about wine and food, this is an event not to be missed. Mark your calendars for future Beyond the Cellar events at The Lodge at Torrey Pines.
