ATASCADERO — The City of Atascadero kicked off the month of love with its 19th annual Father and Daughter Sweetheart Dance on Friday, Feb. 9, featuring daughters 12 and under dancing with their fathers or father figures. Saturday, Feb. 3, was for the older crowd. Both nights sold out, with a total of 750 attendees.

“This is my second year,” said father and resident Brian Weise. “My daughter is four. I think it’s great for the community to offer this.”

This year’s theme was Boots and Beauties, and everyone showed up dressed to the country-themed nines for both nights of the dance. The dance, which the City of Atascadero put on, was led by Recreation Coordinator Ashley Zamora, who assists the city with events, and she was so excited to pick this year’s theme.

“It felt like this last couple of years the whole Dolly Disco thing has been really popular.

SAN LUIS OBISPO COUNTY — A relentless atmospheric river storm battered the Central Coast over the weekend, wreaking havoc with heavy rains, strong winds, and flooding in coastal areas.

The storm’s impact prompted Gov. Gavin Newsom to declare a state of emergency in response to the severe weather conditions that ravaged San Luis Obispo County and neighboring areas.

The storm system, which hit its peak on Sunday, unleashed downpours and gusts of wind reaching up to 80 mph, toppling trees and power lines throughout the region. At its height, over 20,000 PG&E customers were left without electricity, with approximately 10,000 customers enduring power outages well into Monday morning.

Road closures due to flooding, fallen trees, and mudslides were reported across San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara counties, causing significant disruptions to transportation

CRIME

ATASCADERO — For the last month, Atascadero’s newest Police Chief Daniel B. Suttles has been serving the community.

With 20 years of law enforcement under his belt and eight years of service in the Marine Corps, Suttles has brought a plethora of knowledge to the city since he officially took over on Monday, Jan. 8, of this year.

Suttles was born in Ohio but grew up in Oregon, near Portland, until the end of high school, when life led him to California and steered him towards a life in law enforcement.

“When I was in high school, I was that kid who wanted to find a career job. I was like, whatever it is I do after high school is going to be my career, but I didn’t know what it was,” Suttles said. “I did know I really liked police work, and that was one of the things I was like, you know, hopefully I

can be a cop.”

Right before graduation, at the ripe age of 17, Suttles headed down to the Beaverton Police Department and asked for an application. He was told that he was too young to apply, but the department suggested that he join the military before coming back to apply four years later.

“So I did that. I went, and I joined the Marine Corps. I joined for four years, but then

after four years, I ended up staying for another four. So, I did eight years in the Marine Corps,” he said. “That was really important for me, especially in hindsight, looking back, because of all the branches of the military and maybe I am a little biased because I was in the Marine Corps, but in the Marine Corps, they push leadership and leadership traits and leadership principles, and they really want you to

understand these things and be able to step in and be a leader.”

During his military career, which started at Camp Pendleton near San Diego, Suttles volunteered for everything he could, including an indoctrination for an STA (Surveillance and Target Acquisition) platoon, which ended up being a sniper platoon. He then went into reconnaissance, which is where CONTINUED ON PAGE A7

Demand grows for organic produce, despite inflation Organic berry growers see strong demand, organic vegetable growers demand varies

By BOB JOHNSON California Farm Bureau Federation

CALIFORNIA — The prospects for organic produce remain strong in these inflationary times, according to leaders of some of the largest grower-shipper operations.

Market strength varies, however, depending on which commodities growers are trying to sell.

“The category is going to grow based on consumer demand,” said Nishan Moutafian, vice president of production at Driscoll’s in Watsonville.

While organic berry growers enjoy strong demand, organic vegetable growers find demand varies depending on the product.

“We feel there is a lot of opportunity on the value-added side,” said Joe Pezzini, senior director of agricultural operations at Taylor Farms in Salinas.

“The value-added side will continue to grow; it depends on innovation.

The commodity side is flat.”

Moutafian and Pezzini made their remarks during a grower roundtable on the state of organic farming during the Organic Grower Summit in Monterey last November. The summit was co-sponsored

by Western Growers Association and the Organic Produce Network, a 6-year-old organization created to bring together organic produce retailers and growers large enough to supply them.

Statistics gathered by the Category Partners farm market data firm highlighted the strongest organic growth categories. The firm noted that organic berry sales increased nearly 7 percent in the third quarter of 2023 compared to the previous year, while organic prepackaged salads were up 5.4 percent.

Sales of organic lettuce, onions and tomatoes were all up less than 4 percent year over year, while sales of organic celery, squash and peaches were down.

Taylor Farms already has a valueadded program in place, but shippers that are relatively new to the valueadded category must navigate questions of how to invest.

“During COVID, we saw a huge

jump in value-added products,” said Briana Giampaoli, organic category manager at Merced county-based Live Oak Farms in LeGrand. “We’re looking at more value-added products, but it requires risk at first to learn what equipment to buy.”

Live Oak Farms grows and ships large volumes of tomatoes and peppers.

Moutafian and Pezzini agreed that maintaining a reliable supply 12 months of the year is essential for strong sales.

“The majority of consumers who buy organic are making that choice in the store,” Moutafian said. “Reliability is a key to getting good placement in the produce department.”

Growers need cooperation of seed companies if they are to provide a steady supply of organic produce.

“In some commodities, like spinach, a lot of effort has been put into disease resistance,” Pezzini said. “In some other commodities, we need the seed companies to put more emphasis on disease and pest resistance.”

Driscoll’s breeds its own berry varieties and conducts trials on organic ground to test disease resistance.

“Our breeding for disease resistance

is an important part of what we do at Driscoll’s,” Moutafian said.

Cooperation with other innovators is important if organic produce is to remain competitive, producers said.

“It’s worth it to take the time to let the innovators integrate with your operation,” Giampaoli said. “It will pay off.”

Western Growers has made it a priority in recent years to serve as a facilitator between technological startup firms, farmers who are willing to host trials and investors who are able to help small firms scale up their more promising ideas.

During its annual Ag Sharks competition, Western Growers gives startups a chance to compete before a panel of growers and investors. The prize is investment capital of at least $250,000.

The three finalists in the 2023 competition included a company with a mobile biochar unit that can produce the soil amendment at a fraction of the cost. Another was a software company that can automate the process of producing reports required by regulators and buyers.

The third was a firm producing material that protects fruit from sun, heat

and wind damage by strengthening the cuticle, or microscopic layer encompassing the fruit.

Despite inflationary pressure, the recent trend in organic produce sales has been promising.

Walt Duflock, senior vice president of innovation at Western Growers, said the organic sector enjoyed $60 billion in sales nationally in 2022, $22 billion of that in produce. There has been a $10 billion increase in sales over four years, he noted.

He also pointed to demographic factors that should help the organic produce market in the next few years.

“Millennials and Gen Z are starting to build their families, and they prioritize health,” Giampaoli said.

There must be a reliable supply of quality organic produce if growers are to benefit from potential growth in the market.

“We need to make sure consumers retain their confidence in the organic label,” Moutafian said. “If the consumer is going to spend that money, they want it to be for something they really want to eat.

There is going to be more demand, and my job is to figure out how to supply that.”

District attorney announces settlement with doctor for unlawful supervision of nurse practitioner Dr. Anika Moore ordered to pay $25,000 in penalties by the court STAFF REPORT

SAN LUIS OBISPO CO UNT Y — District Attorney Dan Dow has announced a settlement in the case involving Dr. Anika Moore for her role in the unlawful supervision of Nurse Practitioner Sarah Erny, who misrepresented herself as “Dr. Sarah.” This settlement marks a crucial step in ensuring compliance with California’s laws regarding medical supervision and patient care.

Moore has agreed to pay $25,000 in penalties following allegations of improper oversight of Erny, who operated an independent medical office in Arroyo Grande, prescribing controlled substances without Moore’s knowledge for a period of two years.

The investigation uncovered that Moore, who practiced obstetrics and gynecology in Massachusetts at the time, accepted the role of supervising physician for Erny in 2018. However, Moore’s involvement was limited, as she only briefly reviewed the collaboration agreement and did not actively oversee Erny ’s practice. Moore claimed she was unaware of Erny’s independent practice and the extent of her prescribing activities, including controlled

substances like testosterone.

Assistant District Attorney Eric Dobroth emphasized the professional commitment undertaken by supervising physicians, highlighting the importance of adherence to California’s requirements. Moore’s failure to adequately supervise Erny’s practice led to potential risks to patient safety and violated state regulations.

Though Moore does not admit liability, the stipulated civil judgment requires her to pay $25,000 in civil penalties and mandates compliance with California laws for any future supervisory relationships with registered nurses in the state.

This case underscores the critical role of regulatory oversight in ensuring patient safety and upholding the standards of medical practice. It was investigated by the Department of Consumer Affairs and the San Luis Obispo County District Attorney Bureau of Investigation, with prosecution led by Deputy District Attorney Kenneth Jorgensen.

For more information about the consumer protection laws or to report suspected violations contact the California Department of Consumer Affairs Consumer Assistance Line toll-free at (800) 952-5210 or visit their website at dca.ca.gov/. Hearing-impaired persons may call TTY (800) 326-229.

PASO ROBLES Resident volunteers are being sought for city’s Supplemental Sales Tax Oversight Committee The City of Paso Robles is seeking five volunteers to join its Supplemental Sales Tax Oversight Committee (SSTOC).

This unique opportunity arises from the community’s support of Measure E-12 and Measure J-20, supplemental sales taxes approved by Paso Robles voters in 2012 and 2020, respectively.

The committee has two distinct roles: oversight and advice. The oversight role is the higher priority: Paso citizens need to know whether the voter-approved supplemental sales tax revenues are being spent on community priorities established by the City Council based on information gained from business and resident surveys and other means. At each regular meeting, the committee reviews the latest accounting for each of the ballot measures, which summarizes funds generated and spent. The committee determines if the funds were spent appropriately, and report that to the council and public. The intent is for expenditures by the city in the priority areas (police, fire and street maintenance) to equal or exceed the revenues generated by the measures.

Committee terms are for three years.

The application period will be open until all positions are filled.

Past SSTOC agendas with linked staff reports can be found here: prcity. com/agendacenter If you are interested in serving on this advisory body, please submit an application here: prcity.com/1181/ Vacancies-and-Applications. All applicants should plan to be available to interview in person.

About Measure E-12: In November 2012, the voters of Paso Robles approved Measure E-12, a half-cent supplemental sales tax (SST), beginning on Apr. 1, 2013, and ending on March 31, 2025. Although E-12 is a general tax — meaning it can legally be used for a general government purpose — the tax was intended to fund the city’s street repair, maintenance, and rehabilitation projects. Since inception, E-12 has provided funding for over 35 different road maintenance projects totaling over $45.7 million, with an additional $30.5 million committed towards uncompleted road maintenance projects.

About Measure J-20: In November 2020, the voters of Paso Robles approved Measure J-20, a onecent SST, beginning on Apr. 1, 2021, and ending on March 31, 2033 (unless ended earlier by voters). It has the potential to generate approximately $12 million each year in sales tax revenues. The main priorities for spending the Measure J-20 SST revenue are for fire and emergency services, police services, and street repair and maintenance.

Paso Robles Municipal Airport launching service improvements Paso Robles Municipal Airport is set to begin operation of a new online portal that pilots can access for aircraft check-in, landing fee payment, and area information, including wine tasting, an events calendar, lodging, and other city-related information.

Effective Feb. 19, as part of an initiative to enhance efficiency and modernize airport operations, the Paso Robles Municipal Airport announces a partnership with Altaport Inc. to help provide a modern solution for the payment of applicable airport fees.

Through the Altaport website, pilots can access the online aircraft check-in, pay landing fees, and find useful information links about the airport and details on the Paso Robles area. A link to the new online portal can be found here: altaport.info/airports/KPRB Signage will be placed around the airport alerting pilots of the new check-in portal which they can access online through their phone, tablet, or computer. To access the portal, pilots can scan the QR code or enter the

website listed on the signs.

The new portal will aid with airport operations tracking, check-in efficiency, and ease of payment of applicable fees for transient operators.

The online portal and fee collection by Altaport Inc. is based on a revenue-share model and comes at no direct cost to the airport. The potential revenue to the Airport Fund is estimated at $77,900 annually for the first two years and $73,800 each subsequent year. Revenue generated from the landing fee program helps provide the best level of service to the flying public and helps with the ongoing costs of airport maintenance.

The landing fees apply to all transient aircraft over 6,000 lbs. operating at the airport. Exceptions to the landing fees include: all based aircraft, federal government, Angel Flight, Life Flight, air ambulance, touch and go operations and non-commercial aircraft under 6,000 lbs.

The landing fee program is in effect per City Council Resolution 23-103, a link to information on the airport’s landing fees can be found here: prcity. com/1187/Landing-Fees For more information, please contact the airport office at (805) 2373877 or airport@prcity.com.

Addis bill aims to bolster emergency preparedness Assemblymember Dawn Addis (D-Morro Bay) introduced a bill that will require mobile-home parks to have more comprehensive preparedness plans to protect vulnerable Californians during emergencies.

Assembly Bill 2022, known as the Mobilehome Emergency Preparedness Act, additionally requires mobile-home parks to make this information easily accessible to all residents.

In recent years, California has grappled with devastating natural disasters, including wildfires and flooding.

Beginning in December 2022, the state experienced severe winter storms, prompting emergency declarations from both the state and federal governments. The Central Coast was hit particularly hard — Monterey, Santa Cruz, and San Luis Obispo counties were all deemed major disaster areas

by President Biden.

“When I was first sworn into the Assembly, our communities faced unprecedented storms, including devastating damage and loss of life,” Addis said. “This was especially the case for residents in mobile home parks and those living in high-risk flood areas.

AB 2022 is an essential, preventative measure to ensure that our communities and neighbors can react, respond, and find safety during emergencies.”

AB 2022 is sponsored by the Golden State Manufactured-Homeowners League and the Legal Aid Network.

“We applaud Assemblymember Dawn Addis for taking on this issue,” said Kendall Jarvis, the lead disaster relief attorney for Legal Aid of Sonoma County. “This bill will address

specific risks faced by mobile and sault Prosecution Team. manufactured home park residents by requiring parks to have working fire Jury convicts man of murder in the hydrants, access to entrance and exit drunk-driving death of 14-year-old points for evacuation, and resident access to gas shut-off valves during an emergency. Legal Aid supports this legislation and truly believes it will help save lives moving forward.”

This bill now awaits referral to a committee in the State Assembly.

Addis authors Student Privacy Protection Act Assemblymember Dawn Addis (D-Morro Bay) introduced Assembly Bill 1971, the Student Privacy Protection Act. “There is a clear and concerning lack of protections for California’s students when it comes to their data privacy” said Addis. “Advances like those in artificial intelligence have surpassed our state’s privacy laws, leaving our students vulnerable to irresponsible uses of their personal data. As technology continues to progress, so should the protections provided to Californians.”

The Student Online Personal Information Act (SOPIPA), established in 2014, prohibits organizations that deal primarily with K-12 education data from selling student data or using a student’s information to amass a personal profile. SOPIPA was a groundbreaking piece of legislation that provided unprecedented protections to students across California, but requires modernization to keep up with exponential growth in the technology sector.

AB 1971 adds education-adjacent institutions, including those that assemble and administer standardized tests, into the existing list of organizations that must abide by SOPIPA. Many of these entities deal almost exclusively with K-12 education data and, under AB 1971, will be held to the same standard of privacy.

AB 1971 now awaits referral to policy committee.

SLO gym owner sentenced to over 300 days in jail

COLE CHARLES CORRIGAN A San Luis Obispo gym owner has been sentenced to over 300 days in county jail after pleading guilty to illegal video recording two patrons of now-closed CCC Fitness and being a felon in possession of a handgun.

San Luis Obispo City resident Cole Charles Corrigan has been sentenced to serve 364 days in jail following his Nov. 28, 2023, guilty plea to two counts of illegally recording patrons within the restroom of now-shuttered CCC Fitness and to being a convicted felon in possession of a handgun. In his guilty plea to illegally possessing the handgun, Corrigan admitted a 2007 felony conviction for possessing narcotics for sale.

Corrigan is also subject to two years of formal probation, including conditions that he submit to a search of his person or property, including electronic devices, submit to periodic drug and polygraph testing, possess no weapons, and undergo sex offender counseling.

At the time of the illegal recording Corrigan was the owner of CCC Fitness in San Luis Obispo. The surreptitious video recording occurred in August 2023. During the investigation, officers served a search warrant on Corrigan’s vehicle and found he illegally possessed a handgun.

The case was investigated by the San Luis Obispo Police Department and prosecuted by Deputy District Attorney Kimberly R. Dittrich of the District Attorney’s Sexual As-

EARNESTO NAVA HERRERA District Attorney Dan Dow announced that a San Luis Obispo County jury has convicted Earnesto Nava Herrera, 27, of murder, gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated, hit and run causing death, driving while under the influence of alcohol causing great bodily injury, and driving on a suspended license.

The jury found Herrera guilty on all charged counts, which included second-degree murder, gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated, hit and run causing death, driving under the influence of alcohol causing great bodily injury, and driving on a suspended license.

During the nearly three-week trial jurors heard evidence that on the evening of March 27, 2021, Herrera, while driving heavily intoxicated, collided with 70 feet of metal pipe fencing and knocked over a tree. He fled in his vehicle and entered Highway 101 using the Tefft Street off-ramp. While driving the wrong direction on the off-ramp, Herrera nearly collided with a vehicle that was exiting the freeway.

The vehicle was able to swerve to avoid a head-on collision. Herrera continued to accelerate northbound on 101 against traffic when he crashed into the victim’s vehicle head-on. The collision killed a 14-year-old and seriously injured two others in the victim’s vehicle.

Herrera fled on foot as his vehicle was disabled. About an hour after the deadly crash, California Highway Patrol located Herrera by using a helicopter with FLIR (forward facing infrared) technology. He was crawling near the freeway in an apparent attempt to avoid detection. Herrera had a blood alcohol level of .164, nearly 2½ hours after the deadly crash.

On Dec. 31, 2020, just three months before the fatal collision, Herrera was arrested for DUI and was read the following admonition: “Being under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or both, impairs your ability to safely operate a motor vehicle. Therefore, it is extremely dangerous to human life to drive while under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or both. If you continue to drive while under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or both, and as a result of that driving, someone is killed, you can be charged with murder.”

“This is a terrible, yet completely avoidable tragedy,” said Assistant District Attorney Eric Dobroth. “As this incident so heartbreakingly illustrates, driving while impaired puts every life on the roadway in peril. We are committed to the aggressive prosecution of those driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs in our community and will charge murder when appropriate. We thank the jury for their focused attention and recognize the psychological impact of serving on a case as tragic as this.”

Please report suspected impaired drivers by calling 911. If you find yourself in a position where you have been drinking or have ingested drugs (legal or otherwise) and suspect that you may be impaired, please do not drive; call a friend or a ride service, or simply stay put until you sober up. If you see someone who is about to drive while impaired, please act. Let’s all be part of the solution.

Herrera faces life in prison at his sentencing, scheduled for March 5 in Department 6 of the San Luis Obispo County Superior Court, the Honorable Michael S. Frye presiding.

P PHYLLIS SMITH 1924-2023

JANET E. (TARBELL) BRYAN 1920-2024 adly, our dear mother, Janet E. (Tarbell) Bryan, 103 years old, of Paso Robles, California, left us on the evening of January 9, 2024, after a long and full life.

Janet was born in Coatesville, Pennsylvania, on February 8, 1920, and grew up there with her parents, Miles and Susie Snyder, brother Ruby Snyder, and her large extended Snyder family on Olive St., more commonly known in town as Snyder Row. In 1940,

aren Diane Riley, my beautiful sister, went to heaven on Jan. 21, 2024.

Karen leaves behind her beloved parents, Albert and Lois Bryant, sister Denise Bryant, brother Donn, nephew Dennan, and his fiance, Judy. She also leaves her partner of 22 years, Joseph Mein, and “stepkids” Jolin, Keegan, Konnor, and Kelsey, as well as her dog Flash

(Butterball) and many loving relatives and cherished friends.

Karen’s gifts were many. Her kindness came naturally, and she could make friends wherever she went. She was young at heart, quirky, fun, silly, and accepting of everyone. She was a free spirit who loved music, dancing, art, and anything new and interesting. She had a beautiful heart and was full of life.

She was cool, smart, witty and outgoing. Her faith was strong, her love was strong, her kindness abundant. She loved life, loved giving, loved laughing, and she loved her family and friends with all her heart. She loved…

Karen’s birthday was February 1. Please keep her in your prayers and heart.

imothy F. O’Mahoney, 76, of Monticello, Iowa, passed away Thursday, January 25, 2024.

Tim was born on October 14, 1947. He served his country in the United States Army, and following his Honorable Discharge from the military, he worked as a Union Pipefitter.

she decided to join the Navy WAVES. After her training in Oklahoma, she was assigned to California and worked in a highly secured logistics office on Coronado Island, keeping track of all of the ship’s movements. Here is where she met Guy Larry Tarbell, who was also a Navy Officer. They married in 1941, and off they went to continue their service in Anchorage, Alaska.

She was honorably discharged from the Navy on October 2, 1944 (Y2C). She got her pilot’s license, which she had hoped to do for the Navy; however, women were not allowed to fly back then. She then, being as ambitious as she was, went on to get her license in Cosmetology.

She loved every minute of her Navy years but moved back to La Jolla, California, and there they began their family. They adopted their first daughter in 1950, Marjorie Susan, who

suddenly passed away in 1958 at eight years old from encephalitis. They adopted their second child, a daughter, Robin Leslie, in 1954. In 1963, Larry accepted a transfer from Riverside, CA, with the State of California, which brought them to Paso Robles, where Janet and Larry were both employed at the California Youth Authority. Larry passed away suddenly in 1968.

It was in 1970 that Janet was introduced to Gene Bryan.

They were married the following April, and together, they enjoyed traveling and golfing.

Janet became an avid golfer with the PRG&CC ladies’ golf club.

Janet was an active member of Eastern Star. She was a member of The First United Methodist Church in Paso Robles as well as Riverside, CA. Janet loved life and enjoyed it to its fullest. From the youngest generation of our family and friends to her fellow centenarians and

everyone in between, She was loved, respected, and adored for the kind, loving lady that she was…not to mention her sense of humor…Oh, yes…that sense of humor! She always left a little sparkle everywhere she went!

Janet was preceded in death by her Father, Miles Snyder; Mother, Susie Snyder; Brother, Ruby Snyder; Daughter, Marjorie Susan Tarbell; Husband, Guy Larry Tarbell; and Husband, Gene E. Bryan.

Janet is survived by her Daughter Robin Tarbell Loudat (Tony), Son Richard Bryan (Nancy), and Son Tim Bryan (Donnie).

ow, I hope you all survived the storm!

Our seasonal creek continues to flow and the sound is a reminder of how quickly it fills and how hearty the run-off is. We had several hours without electricity on Saturday, so we gathered up our flashlights and candles and prepared for the dark. Just at dusk, the lights came on, so we were able to fix all those things that run on electricity, like the clock on the oven.

I have a gas stove whose burners can be ignited with a match, so I made a huge pot of vegetable soup to share with our son Doug and his wife Michele. It was one of those “dump” soups where you use what you have in the pantry, refrigerator, or freezer.

I used a couple of boxes of beef broth, a can of tomato soup (I opened it with an old-fashioned can opener), chopped celery, carrots, potatoes, and onion, a can

of rinsed pinto beans, a large can of diced tomatoes, and seasonings such as parsley, and Brian’s Original Seasoning, to taste. I had some small meatballs in the freezer, so I threw in a few of those. It turned out to be a perfect soup for a stormy night.

I love to cook without a recipe or make a recipe my own by being creative. I’m sure most of you cook the same way. However, if you are a beginner, it’s always best to follow a recipe the first time.

Mark your calendar for the Atascadero Chamber’s Sweethearts Sip and Shop event on Friday, Feb. 16, at 5:30 p.m., in downtown Atascadero, for ticket information visit atacaderochamber.org.

This week’s recipe uses large, firm red peppers, or green if red are not available, stuffed with ricotta and spinach. Check the peppers at the farmers markets in your area, for the freshest ones.

Red Pepper Boats Stuffed with Ricotta and Spinach Ingredients: • 3 large red peppers, halved lengthwise; stems, seeds, and ribs removed Ricotta Stuffing • 12 ounces fresh spinach,

stems removed, washed very well; or 1 10-ounce package frozen leaf or chopped spinach, thawed • 1 container (15 or 16 ounces) ricotta cheese • 2 eggs • 3 tablespoons soft bread crumbs • 1/2 cup grated Swiss or Gruyére cheese • 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese • 1/4 teaspoon salt • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper • 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg • 2 cups tomato sauce Directions: Peppers In a large pot of boiling salted water, blanch the peppers, uncovered, just until crisp-tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain and refresh under cold water. Set aside to drain, hollow sides down.

Stuffing In a large covered saucepan, steam spinach in just the water that clings to its leaves until wilted, about 3 minutes. Drain under cold water and squeeze as dry as possible.(If using frozen spinach, simply squeeze dry.)

just came off the boat. Then I discovered that Harbor Freight is a privately held American company with its headquarters in Calabasas, California.

It’s getting real hard to find a truly American company whose products are made by American hands. Who would have ever guessed that Ben and Jerry’s would sell out to a foreign conglomerate? Selling out doesn’t sound like anything the two aging hippies would do, but they did. And I always thought that Trader Joe’s was uniquely American, selling uniquely American merchandise, until I learned that a giant supermarket chain in Germany owns it.

One of the brands my grandpa proudly sold in his furniture store was Hoover vacuums.

He’d roll over in his grave if he knew Hoover was now owned by the same Techtronic Industries in China that also owns and makes Dirt Devils®. When my wife and I last went to Sears, I told the salesman I wanted to buy a washer and dryer that was made in America, and he laughed in my face. He said whether I bought a Frigidaire®, Kenmore® or any other appliance they were all owned by one or two foreign companies. I said, “What about

Choose a shallow baking dish just large enough to hold pepper halves. Spread about 1/2 of tomato sauce in the dish.

Arrange pepper halves, hollows up, in the dish. Spoon about a tablespoon of tomato sauce into each pepper. Fill each with the ricotta mixture, dividing it evenly and smoothing the tops gently.

Pour remaining sauce over and around the peppers, and sprinkle each with a little Parmesan cheese. Bake until the tops are set and lightly golden, about 30 minutes. Serve hot, spooning the sauce in the dish around the peppers. This dish would make a great side dish for grilled Italian sausage links, sweet or hot, or a combination.

What shall we do with the time allotted to us? Each person has been given the exact same amount of time per day. God has designed a very simplistic plan, it moves from seconds to minutes, from minutes to hours, from hours to days, from days to weeks, from weeks to months, and months to years. Time is just waiting to see when and where it will be put to work. Time is crying out to be developed and allowed to shine with the brightness of God’s glory. Shall we allow each moment to be blown away like autumn leaves during a windstorm? Remember, lost time is never regained.

SWEETHEART DANCE

CONTINUED FROM A1

So I did a kind of spin-off on that to make it a little more age-appropriate and then a lot of pink because of the ‘Barbie’ movie, so it just kind of came together. Disco, Taylor Swift, it’s all incorporated,” Zamora said excitedly.

“Putting it together was fun. The decorating is my favorite, obviously, and then it all kind of falls in place with the help of all of our volunteers from Cal Poly and then some of our [city] staff as well.”

The dance, which took place at the Pavilion on the Lake, sported three adorable cowgirlthemed photo booths in the lobby where dads helped each other take photos with their daughters in front of them. And there was no shortage of disco balls, pink cowgirl hats, and bright decorations hanging from the ceiling in the main part of the building.

“I think it’s amazing. I think it’s so sweet that the dads and the daughters are getting together,

and it’s a lot of fun,” added Zamora.

The emcee and DJ for both nights was Manuel Medina of Medina Light Show Designs. The music vibes were immaculate as he played everything from Taylor Swift to Dua Lipa, with plenty of country songs thrown in, too.

“We wouldn’t be able to do it without our sponsors and the help of our community,” said Zamora, who’s been with the city for a little over two years.

This year’s included presenting sponsor H&R Block and Guest House Grill. The dance’s in-kind sponsors were All Signs & Graphics and Sylvesters.

“It’s a huge community-based event. I feel like everyone looks forward to it every year, and so I hope that it just continues to grow,” stated Zamora.

The Father and Daughter Sweetheart Dance will return for its 20th year on Feb. Fathers and daughters gathered to dance at the Sweetheart Dance on Friday and Saturday last weekend.

NEW POLICE CHIEF

“When it comes to learning, it was a fast track for learning a lot of things. My experience of working with the chief as the adjutant in Glendale and then being the chief in Bear Valley — it was like drinking water from a fire hose,” Suttles joked.

Suttles knew he wanted to move his family to the Central Coast, so he kept his eyes out for police chief positions before learning that Atascadero had an opening. He kept his eyes on the opening for about a year while the city went

through management changes and hopped on applying as soon as the position officially opened up. He said when he looked into the actual department itself, how the APD runs sold him on applying for the position.

“Everything I looked into and researched about this police department got me more excited about it,” Suttles said. “It seemed to be a fit for the type of person that I am, the type of chief that I’ve become. What really drew me to this department was that not only is it in a wonderful place but it’s just a really good department. Quite honestly, where I spent my first 18 years in Glendale was a really wonderful department, and the similarities between the two are pretty incredible actually.”

Suttles also commented on how welcoming the community has been to him and his whole family.

He says that most people instantly feel like new friends and that his main goal as police chief is to enhance the great work that the department is already doing.

“You don’t change things just to change them, you change them for a meaningful impact,” Suttles added. “Therefore if we have something that’s working what I want to work toward is enhancing that or making it grow.”

Welcome to the community.

ing statement that she is committed to making government more transparent, accountable, and responsive to the community, and that she stepped into local public office because she deeply believes in public service.

Both Funk and Moreno agree that homelessness is one of their top priorities when it comes to being District 5 supervisor. Moreno stated that she believes there are three things to focus on where the topic is concerned: accountability, balancing compassion with order, and a coordinator to oversee the issue in the county.

Funk, who has been serving on the Homeless Services Oversight Council, also agreed that accountability is a central issue.

Both Moreno and Funk have spent years of their political career on the Atascadero City Council together. Dantona asked both what that has taught them about working with constituents, collaborating, and maintaining civility with their fellow elected officials.

Moreno stated that it is a team effort and

that she couldn’t do what she does as mayor without the rest of the city staff, the council, and the Atascadero community.

Funk said that she ran for council because she wanted to make sure that Atascadero had a group of people who represented all the facets of the city and wanted to make sure all voices were heard.

Ten out of the 16 questions during the forum were from audience members, and both candidates had a chance to answer them. Even with different political ideologies, both agreed that Diablo Canyon Power Plant needs to be kept open.

“I think it is important that we work together, and I commit to listening to you and to engaging with you,” said Moreno in her closing statement. “I commit to working well with my colleagues on the Board of Supervisors and with staff and listening to you when you come to the dais. It doesn’t matter if we agree on things. What matters is that we’re able to

have a conversation to get to better solutions.”

“I think it’s important that we have leaders at every level who will push back against the elements of our society that are trying to undermine the trust we have in each other,” Funk said in her final statement. “The trust we have to make decisions together, so that we have leaders who are really committed to the government of the people, by the people, and for the people.”

In March, either Moreno or Funk will be elected to the District 5 supervisor’s seat and will be one of the five county supervisors to serve for the next four years in SLO County.

Whichever candidate wins will be crafting policies and managing the county’s financial resources along with the rest of the board.

District 5 covers the communities of Atascadero, a portion of California Polytechnic State University (Cal Poly), California Valley, Creston, Garden Farms, Pozo, parts of San Luis Obispo, Templeton, and Santa Margarita.

he spent the rest of his military career before applying to be a cop.

“When I decided it was time for me to apply to be a police officer, I applied for whoever was hiring,” Suttles said. “Luckily for me, Glendale was the one that offered me the job. It was a perfect fit for me, and it was a wonderful place.”

While working for the Glendale Police Department, Suttles worked a bunch of different assignments, which he slipped into easily given his military background. He worked on its part-time SWAT team and as a patrol officer. He was also a detective and a sergeant for 10 years on patrol.

He also did Internal Affairs investigations, was a public information officer, and then became the adjutant to the Glendale police chief, before his promotion to lieutenant.

Suttles added that it was when he was adjutant to the chief that he grew an appreciation for the job. That was the moment he decided to advance past sergeant. That decision put him on track for becoming Atascadero’s police chief after two years as chief of police in Bear Valley.

the information available to the voters and to the concerned citizens.”

Funk and Moreno took alternate turns, first answering prepared questions and then diving into questions written by SLO County residents in attendance. In total, both candidates answered 16 questions ranging from homelessness in the county to affordable housing, not including their opening and closing statements.

“I am running for County Supervisor because I think the county needs leadership,” said Moreno in her opening statement. “Leadership that will, number one, support public safety in all the ways possible. Two, support policies that promote jobs and housing that help make our county affordable for residents, businesses, and families to thrive, and three, are going to approach homelessness in a way that’s intelligent, compassionate, yet provide accountability.”

Other notable draws include Oxbow from Newcastle, Maine; Omnipollo from Sweden; Lervig from Norway; FrauGruber from Germany; and Garage Project from New Zealand. A complete list of the breweries attending the 2024 Firestone Walker Invitational Beer Fest can be viewed on the event page at firestonewalker.com/event/firestone-walker-invitational-beer-festival/ Since its inaugural event in 2012, the Firestone Walker Invitational Beer Fest has become renowned as one of the world’s most esteemed beer festivals. This year’s edition will once again include live music and food from more than 20 local restaurants and purveyors.

“The Firestone Walker Invitational Beer Fest was born from a dream of creating a world-class festival featuring some of the best brewers in the world,” said Brewmaster Matt Brynildson.

“This is a day when we can set the sales pitches aside and simply share our beers and stories with passionate craft drinkers.”

Proceeds from the fest benefit Paso Robles Pioneer Day, a beloved local nonprofit.

“The proceeds that are raised from the beer fest are critical to the ongoing mission of Paso Robles Pioneer Day, which is to preserve and showcase our local heritage and agricultural roots through events such as the Pioneer Day Parade that happens every October,” said Sarah

Kramer, chairperson of the Firestone Walker Invitational Beer Fest Committee. “Firestone Walker’s generosity in assisting with the production of the beer fest never ceases to amaze us and they have been an incredible partner over the years. We look forward to another great celebration this year.”

Firestone Walker is also planning a slate of monthlong local events leading up to the fest, all designed to bring visitors and the local community deeper into the experience. These will include

live concerts, block parties, and special menu activations with Central Coast bars and restaurants.

Details to be announced in the weeks ahead.

“The Firestone Walker Invitational Beer Fest is an international event with a distinctly local flair,” said Nick Firestone. “Every June, Paso Robles transforms into a central hub for global beer fans. It has become more than a beer festival — it’s a community celebration where we can all gather together in the name of great beer and good times.”

The Play Grove enrichment program will launch in the fall of 2024 for children from 3 to 5 years old. As an extension of One Cool Earth’s seasoned learning model, the program will allow children to grow through outdoor play and exploration in a beautiful garden setting. By incorporating outdoor garden-based activities, children will drive their personal learning and begin to develop a deep connection to the natural world. The program will also prepare them for the next step in their learning journey.

Alongside enthusiastic playworkers, young children will engage in free play, games, intentional curriculum, art, and projects infused with laughter, curiosity, and excitement. With a low student-to-playworker ratio of 1:5, all Play Grove students will receive guided care and attention as they engage with the outdoors.

The playworkers will introduce students to gardening, harvesting, preserving, seed saving, and preparing fruits and veggies, similar to the school-age One Cool Earth curriculum. Serving as facilitators and co-learners, playworkers will be trained in early childhood education skills

A.P.N.: 040-122-073 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address or other common designation, if any, shown above. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. If the sale is set aside for any reason, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the deposit paid. The Purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee, or the Mortgagee’s Attorney. If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may have been released of personal liability for this loan in which case this letter is intended to exercise the note holder’s rights against the real property only. THIS NOTICE IS SENT FOR THE PURPOSE OF COLLECTING A DEBT. THIS FIRM IS ATTEMPTING TO COLLECT A DEBT ON BEHALF OF THE HOLDER AND OWNER OF THE NOTE. ANY INFORMATION OBTAINED

BY OR PROVIDED TO THIS FIRM OR THE CREDITOR WILL BE USED FOR THAT PURPOSE. As required by law, you are hereby notified that a negative credit report reflecting on your credit record may be submitted to a credit report agency if you fail to fulfill the terms of your credit obligations. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: 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 off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, 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 office 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, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. 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 (800) 758-8052 or visit this Internet Web site www.Xome.com, using the file number assigned to this case 2227586. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. For sales conducted after January 1, 2021: NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction.

There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (800) 758-8052, or visit this internet website www.Xome.com, using the file number assigned to this case 22-27586 to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale.

If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by KATHRYN YOUNGBLOOD AND LORI DELUNA in the Superior Court of California, County of SAN LUIS OBISPO. THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that KATHRYN YOUNGBLOOD AND LORI DELUNA be appointed as administrators for the estate of the decedent. THE PETITION requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the administer will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The Independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.

A HEARING on the petition will be held in this court as follows: 02/06/24 at 9:01 AM in Dept 4 via Zoom.

Meeing ID : 160 407 5307 Password: 79513 You may access the Zoom information from the court website at https:www.slo.courts.ca.gov IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.

IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor fo the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the administer (s) appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general administer, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor.

You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.

YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: 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 off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, 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 office 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, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. 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 800-683-2468 option 1 or visit this Internet Web site www.servicelinkASAP.com, using the file number assigned to this case 2023-05826. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction.

If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call 800-683-2468 option 1, or visit this internet website www. servicelinkASAP.com, using the file number assigned to this case 2023-05826 to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse.

Eagles defeat Greyhounds in basketball rematch

The Templeton and Atascadero boys basketball team played a hard-fought contest on Tuesday, Feb. 6, with the Eagles coming out on top 62-53. The Eagles and Greyhounds split their season series, with Atascadero previously beating Templeton 72-70 in overtime. Photos by Rick Evans

Templeton sits atop Ocean League standings with Atascadero in second

By CAMILLE DEVAUL

NORTH COUNTY — In front of a packed gym on Tuesday night, Feb. 6, the Templeton High boys basketball team defeated Atascadero 62-53, in anticipation of battling for a CIF championship in boys basketball.

“Tonight’s (Tuesday) win against Atascadero is the culmination of the tremendous amount of work by a talented group of young men who

strive to get better every day,” said Eagles head coach Lawren Ramos.

Ramos is a THS alumni whose dad once coached football at the high school. Last summer, Ramos pushed the student-athletes hard in anticipation of a great season. Templeton currently sits as number one in the Ocean league standings, with Atascadero in a close second.

“I am very proud of what we have accomplished up to this point,” said Ramos of his team’s nearly undefeated season. “By continuing to sacrifice for each other, this team has the potential to be very special and hang the first CIF basketball championship in Thorndyke Gymnasium.”

In January, the Eagles lost to the Greyhounds

72-70 in an overtime nail-biter.

Star players on the Eagles this season included junior Trevon Carter Givens and senior Ryan McNamee.

Givens broke the Templeton’s single-season rebounding record and, going into Tuesday’s game, had 282 rebounds this season. He also broke the school record for blocks in a season with 74 so far, beating the old mark of 61.

Givens has 15 “double-doubles,” making him a big player to watch.

McNamee was 12 assists away from breaking the record for assists in a season before Tuesday.

He had 101 going into Tuesday’s game. McNamee has made 51 3-point shots this year after setting the school record last year with 77.

For the season, including non-league games, the Eagles are 20-6 and anticipating their entry into the CIF Central Section playoffs.

Givens’s current stats include 14.5 points per game, 11.3 rebounds per game, and 3 blocks per game. McNamee is 14 ppg, 7 rpg, and 4 assists per game.

The best boys’ basketball record in THS history was 21-6 under former head coach Andrew Cherry, whose son Luke Cherry is a senior starter on this year’s team. They are hoping to break that record.

This Friday, the Eagles will play against Nipomo, who holds a 9-17 season record. The Greyhounds will face Lompoc, who hold a 5-15 record for the season.
