n September 2, in a 6-2 vote (Sandra Ibarra and Henry Nickel dissenting), San Bernardino City Council authorized an employment agreement for the city manager position, which will be filled by former County of Riverside Assistant Executive Officer Rob Field.

The base salary of the city manager is $285,000 per year and the position may receive management confidential benefits; the city manager will also receive a vehicle allowance.

“I understand the public is very interested in what we’re doing here. It’s not possible to make this a public forum for hiring a city manger. I feel extremely confident in this person and I’m looking forward to his abilities being utilized in our city, especially in the area of redevelop-

ment,” said Councilmember Fred Shorett. “I’m excited about the opportunity, he’s actually had a status with us and he came out with the highest score during our deliberation.”

One council member who respectfully opposed the employment agreement was Henry Nickel.

“Mr. Fields is going to be the highest paid city manager San Bernardino has ever hired and in the top 10 percent of the highest paid city managers in the state.

I’m happy to compensate the city manager once they’ve demonstrated that they have earned it,” shared Nickel.

“I’m going to reserve my recommendation of salary until it is proven. Every year he’s going to go through a performance review. I cannot approve a base salary until I see excellent perforFields, cont. on next pg.

L e a g u e o f Wo m e n Vo t e r s t o h o s t candidate for um, infor mation on Measure U

T

he League of Women Voters, San Bernardino Area, a non-partisan organization, is hosting a forum for candidates for the Board of San Bernardino City Unified School District. The forum will be on Thursday, September 17 at 5:00 P.M. on the Zoom platform.

Those interested in attending the on-line forum need to register on the League’s website: m y. l w v. o rg / c a l i f o r n i a / s a n bernardino-area The forum will also be available FAFSA High School, where leaders from various school districts throughout Riverside and San Bernardino counties came together to commit to the goal of increasing FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) and Dream Act application completion rates among high school students.

According to BLU Foundation President and CEO and Rialto Unified School District Board member Dina Walker, the nonprofit organization has strived to make the conversation of financial aid imperative for the past 10 years; the movement started to gain traction two years ago across California.

“I want to thank Assemblymember Eloise Reyes because two years ago we came to her and said ‘this is an opportunity for us to do something big.’ and she did not hesitate (to work with us),” noted Walker. “It became a signed bill, AB 2015, to ensure that in 11th grade, in the class they will begin to talk about financial aid, it won’t be something people will only hear about in 12th grade.”

AB 2015 commenced this academic year requiring governing boards of school districts ensure each student receives information on how to properly complete and

Fields mance,” continued Nickel.

Although Nickel has a few reservations, he is confident that Fields will meet the city’s expectations.

“We have some big projects.

California State Assemblymember James Ramos earned the city a few million dollars to update the general plan; it’s a major undertaking to revitalize San Bernardino. We need lots of com-

on the League’s website until November 3.

Candidates for the four seats on the Board are: Incumbents Dr. Margaret Hill, Gwen DowdyRodgers, Mike Gallo and Dr. Scott Wyatt. Challengers are: Tressy Capps, Joette SpencerCampbell, Heather Johnson and Mayra Ceballos. The forum will feature questions from the League of Women Voters, and also questions asked by viewers of the forum. submit the FAFSA or California Dream Act application at least once before the student enters 12th grade.

“Our goal is to make it easier for all California students to go to college; the research is clear, by providing students and families assistance with completing and submitting a FAFSA you significantly increase the chances of that student enrolling in college, this is especially true for low income students,” remarked Reyes, who encouraged the gathered school leaders to focus on a regional approach. “Policy change that changes a student’s experience and success rate happens at the local level.”

Rialto Unified School District Superintendent Dr. Cuauhtémoc Avila shared his experience of being unaware financial aid was an option until the second semester of his senior year at Compton High, but it wasn’t until his college counselor helped him apply for FAFSA that he would benefit from the aid.

On September 26th at 10:00 A.M., another program will be hosted by the LWV. This event will feature speakers on the pros and cons of Measure U, which will be on the November 3rd ballot. Measure U is the proposed repeal of the tax that funds Fire Protection District 5. Again, those who wish to attend this on-line event will need to register on the website of the League of Women Voters, San Bernardino Area. This program will also be available on the website for later viewing.

College Prep Adviser Darrell Jones, despite this being 2020, there still exists a large population of students and families unaware of the assistance available to them.

“We have to normalize the discussion of including financial aid.

Many low income students feel like they just can’t afford it because the conversation about FAFSA or Cal Grant wasn’t had or wasn’t had until the very last minute,” Jones indicated. “Financial aid is a foreign concept… some don’t know about Cal Grants, that’s almost $2,000 on the table… I think financial aid should be a high school graduation requirement for students so we don’t leave money on the table.”

“San Bernardino City Unified is definitely on board because we want our students to have choices, and they cannot have a choice when we say ‘go to college, go to college’ but we don’t give them the tools for them to be able to do that,” Dowdy noted.

According to BLU Foundation

T

he San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools is seeking to enroll students for the 2020-21 academic school year for its 30 state-funded preschool programs for low-income families.

State preschool program enrollment, which normally opens in the spring, was pushed back due to the COVID-19 pandemic. State preschool programs operated by County Schools currently have openings at every site.

The programs will follow distance learning guidelines. Students enrolled will learn and have fun using an age-appropriate hybrid model of daily online interactions with their teacher and independent activities.

Superintendent Randall Bassett noted over the last two years FUSD has increased its FAFSA completion rate by 10% to 72%, above state and regional rates.

“It’s really about knocking down those barriers for our students, and financial aid is one of those things that is a big barrier, but we still

In an effort to help with distance learning, county schools expanded its joint Footsteps2Brilliance mobile platform which helps connect more families to early literacy activities and remote learning materials for students in PK through third grade.

Activities are available in English and in Spanish. Parents can register here.

Income eligibility for preschool programs is based on a sliding scale. Students must be 3 to 4 years old to be enrolled.

San Bernardino City Unified School District Board President Gwen Dowdy-Rodgers emphasized the need for schools to be more proactive in engaging students to meet with their counselors to discuss their future and specific steps that need to be taken to achieve those goals.

“For me college had not been a part of my conversation… it wasn’t part of family culture or family expectation,” Avila shared. “College wasn’t part of the culture because it wasn’t financially accessible… for me it opened up a world of opportunity and led me to where I am today.”

Le g islat ive Se s sion in the Ag e o f COV ID

By Eloise Gómez Reyes - Assemblymember 47th District The end of another Legislative Session and, as always, there was some excitement as we worked to vote on all the bills from both the Assembly and the Senate. We had social distancing and mask wearing; Senators in quarantine; and members of both Houses trying to jockey their bills through the houses. When all was said and done, there were judgments, praises and complaints relating to the conclusion of the people’s business in the Legislature.

In the end it is the leaders who are held accountable and take ownership over the outcomes. Yet, in the days since the Legislative session ended Speaker Anthony Rendon, a man that introduces himself to people as just “Anthony,” has been the subject of unnecessary personal attacks for allegedly not showing empathy to one of his colleagues, by refusing to allow the use of remote voting, an approach that while embraced by the Senate was rightly viewed as a last resort for the Assembly.

I was shocked because the description in no way reflected the man I know, nor the man whose actions since becoming Speaker of the California State Assembly have positively impacted both the Legislature and the State of California.

Needless to say, the characterization of Speaker Rendon, (the man I helped re-elect to be Speaker of the Assembly) whether by design, or due to distance from what actually happened, could not be further from reality. While he has been condemned for the perception that he forced a new mom to return to the Capitol to vote, the reality is that Speaker Rendon has used his time as leader of the Assembly to correct decades of wrongs inside the State Capitol by instituting policies to empower and elevate women leaders and fight for the rights of families. The concept of proxy voting was changed to meet the changing times while finding balance with legal challenges. Maybe we didn’t get it right, but we have a leader and members ready to look at better ways to ensure the Legislature operates safely for members, staff and the public.

As a woman and as a mother I am deeply sympathetic to the challenges of working families attempting to balance career with parenting. That is why I have spent my time in the Assembly advocating for more childcare funding and expanded early childhood education opportunities as a member of the Assembly Blue Ribbon Commission on Early Childhood Education (ECE) created by Speaker Rendon to develop proposals to ease the childcare burden on working families.

In addition to his work to expand childcare and ECE opportunities, Speaker Rendon, has built his speakership on empowering more women than any Assembly Speaker before him.

Due to his leadership and effective campaigning we have the largest cadre of women elected in the Assembly ever. When he was elected

Speaker, he identified that pay parity between female and male staff was inequitable and went about changing Assembly policy to correct this wrong.

He changed Monday sessions from a start time of noon to 1 p.m. Why is that important? Because the parents in the Assembly wanted to drop off their children at school on Monday morning and still get to Sacramento on time for Floor Session.

He ensured passage of the ITINs CalEITC tax credit that specifically benefits low-income working Californians with children, to enable them to keep working.

His tenure has resulted in the implementation of fully paid leave for Assemblymembers with newborn children, something that rarely exists in the business world.

In an unprecedented move he has named women to fill each of the four top Assembly nonelected positions: Chief Administrative Officer, Chief Clerk, Chief Sergeant at Arms and the Speaker’s Chief of Staff. He further ensured women electeds had power within the Assembly by doubling the number of committees chaired by women. I am a beneficiary of that progressive policy change as I currently Chair the Human Services Committee.

In response to the clear failures of the Legislature’s previous approach toward sexual harassment claims, Speaker Rendon created The Legislative Workplace Conduct Unit to fairly investigate allegations, intentionally firewalled away from the Speaker’s control.

I think these facts are important enough, in and of themselves.

However, they don’t begin to capture the character of Speaker Anthony Rendon. He is a man who spends time listening to all people because he cares and actually hears what they say and incorporates it into decisions.

He has accommodated new parents, the mother of triplets and the mothers-to-be. And he is a man who, recognizing the hurt to Assemblymember Buffy Wicks, issued a full apology -no excuses.

In the end, although Speaker Rendon has been a great leader, empowering those around him, pushing progressive policies and protecting staff and members, there will always be someone on the outside looking for a reason to criticize or to elevate the politics of division over the needs of California.

Any leader is subjected to negative comments and criticisms, but recent tweets and columns have turned into an all-out assault on his character as well as attempting to assign to him motives for his actions that have no basis in reality.Those of us in the Assembly, those of us who elected him Speaker, know him better than that.

I would like you to know that, too.

the next infectious disease crisis

Imagine if scientists had seen Covid-19 coming years in advance yet did little to prepare. Unthinkable, right?

Yet that's exactly what's happening with another infectious disease crisis -- the one caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria and fungi.

So-called superbugs already kill more than 700,000 people each year. And the World Health Organization warns that by 2050 the annual death toll could reach 10 million if we don t use the time to get prepared.

The antibiotics and other antimicrobial drugs needed to prevent such a calamity don't yet exist -and they're years away from patients. The problem isn't a lack of willing scientists, but rather a broken marketplace that has made it virtually impossible for researchers to attract adequate funding.

Unless lawmakers take steps to jump-start antimicrobial innovation, the world will soon find itself unprepared for a global health emergency as deadly as Covid-19.

Bacteria and fungi resistant to drugs have been around as long as the drugs themselves. When a patient takes an antimicrobial, microbes generally die. But some can survive, with the potential to become immune to existing antimicrobials.

Innovation in antimicrobials has slowed dramatically in recent years, with higher rates of failure.

In the last two decades, researchers have developed just two completely new kinds of antibi-

otics.

The window for avoiding a superbug crisis that kills millions of people each year is closing quickly. Pulling back from the brink will require a two-pronged approach.

First, we must encourage doctors to prescribe antibiotics as smartly and sparingly as possible. We must also educate patients about what antibiotics can actually do, what they can't do, and their limitations.

Second, we need a large-scale effort to create newer, more effective antimicrobials. That will require addressing the fundamentally broken market for these drugs.

Medicines are incredibly expensive to develop, with median R&D costs for a single antibiotic reaching $1 billion. Pharmaceutical companies can justify such investments only if they have a fighting chance to recoup their costs. But here's the rub: A new, advanced antibiotic is reserved for emergencies, meaning a company would sell relatively few doses of it and almost certainly lose money.

That's why pharmaceutical firms have moved away from antibiotic research in recent years. Four decades ago, there were 18 major drug companies pursuing new antibiotics. Today, there are only three.

Two reforms currently before Congress could help break this research logjam.

The Developing an Innovative Strategy for Antimicrobial Resistant Microorganisms (DISARM) Act would allow Medicare to pay hospitals more for using advanced antibiotics when appropriate. This would raise the demand for more sophisticated medicines, thus giving drug makers the confidence to invest in antibiotics research.

Another bill, the proposed Pioneering Antimicrobial Subscriptions to End Up Surging Resistance (PASTEUR) Act, takes a different tack. It would allow the government to pay a subscription for unlimited access to a new antimicrobial. This, in turn, would enable drug companies to recover their costs, while ensuring that public health authorities have plenty of doses available, if needed.

America's pharmaceutical industry is also prepared to bridge the gap. More than 20 of our country's leading drug companies recently helped launch the AMR Action Fund, a partnership to invest more than $1 billion in antibiotic research and development with the goal of supporting later stages clinical trials so that two to four new antibiotics would reach approval by 2030.

But these companies can't go it alone, and the antibiotics they develop won't be available to patients unless the companies can stay in business. Lawmakers must act to improve the pipeline of new antimicrobial drugs -- and quickly.

If they don't, the world could soon face an infectious disease crisis as formidable as Covid-19.

Kevin Outterson is the founder and executive director of CARB-X and a professor at Boston University School of Law. CARB-X is a global nonprofit partnership that focuses on supporting the developers of promising new antibiotics, diagnostics, and vaccines; it is funded by BARDA, the Wellcome Trust, and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. John Rex is the chief medical officer at F2G Limited, a company focused on treatments for rare fungal diseases, and the founder of AMR Solutions. Both Outterson and Rex are members of the scientific advisory board of the Partnership to Fight Infectious Disease. The opinions expressed are their own and not necessarily those of their companies or organizations.

fter 20 years, Donald Pruyn of Fontana was finally reunited with medals his father earned while serving in WWII. Corporal Murry Pruyn was posthumously recognized with 11 medals and commendations that include the Bronze Star and World War II Victory medals.

Rep. Pete Aguilar (D-Redlands) presented the shadow box containing those medals, photos and honorable discharge papers to Donald, his wife Joyce, and sons Todd and Scott via Zoom on Thursday, Sept.

2.

“It’s not everyday that we get an opportunity to pay tribute to an American hero,” Aguilar addressed the family. “We’re here to honor Corporal Pruyn’s service and his legacy, we’re here to recognize the contributions and sacrifices he made… and to honor the family he would come home to raise in Southern California.”

20 years ago when Donald learned he was entitled to the medals he placed a request to the Army, which approved his application and listed the medals that would be delivered to Donald.

They never reached the family who had moved residences. Concerned they were lost in transit, Donald tried to reach the person who initially provided assistance, but never heard back.

“I kind of gave up on it… I had said I should call my congressman; it would be easier to get through the bureaucracy to get the medals rather than trying to do it on my own again.”

With encouragement from wife Joyce, Donald placed the call.

Three weeks later the medals arrived.

“This is the first time I’ve actually availed myself of constituent services through a congressman’s office… I’m happy about the results, and I thank you and your staff, particularly Matthew (Tovar) for all his good work, to actually get the medals and put

“It’s fascinating to hear actual stories about his time in the army, all I knew was that he was in the war and drove a Half-Track… so to hear all these things makes him more real to me, and makes me not just proud of him and my family, but sorry that I didn’t know him even more,” noted Todd.

Scott conjectured his grandfather died at a time where his stories would have been passed down to Donald, a teen at the time.

“For many years we’ve been very interested in what his experiences were, and it’s also a mystery, we’re getting closer to the solution,” Scott expressed. “I appreciate the work you guys did and the time that you dedicated to helping us solve the mystery, I know it means so much to my dad especially losing his father at that young of an age, to be able to fill out the picture.”

Grito - Mexican Independence Commemoration and Celebration

O

n this day Mexicans all over the world celebrate Mexico’s independence from Spanish rule.

Mariachi bands, Folkloric dancers and local singers and musicians, and the Mexican Consulate will provide the traditional Independence presentation (Grito) Food vendors will be on hand to provide great Mexican entrees.

Come join us for this familyfriendly and educational evening, and anticipated yearly event for all to enjoy.

I

Annually on the evening of September 15th, the night before Mexican Independence Day (September 16), commemorations and re-enactments occur in cities and towns, in every plaza or zócalo all over Mexico; and in Mexican embassies, consulates, and by Mexicans and Mexican-Americans world-wide. It was in 1810 when Father Hidalgo rang his church bell and called upon everyone to fight for liberty. The ensuing war against the Spanish lasted for 10 years, and eventually Mexico won it's independence.

*Not to be confused with Cinco de Mayo, this austere re-enactment ceremony and civic act echoes the bells with which Father Hidalgo called the Mexican people to rebel and fight against Spanish dominance, to establish a new sovereign country.

At around eleven in the evening, the President of Mexico rings the bell of the National Palace in Mexico City. After the ringing of the bell, he repeats a cry of patriotism (Grito) with the names of the important heroes of the Mexican War of Independence who were there on that very historical

5 things you may not know about Mexican Independence Day

n the early nineteenth century, Mexico, with a little influence from the US and France, began talking about a revolt against Spain. Father Miguel Hidalgo from Dolores, Mexico, was a leader of one of the rallying groups. Hidalgo and his officers were planning a revolt for late fall of 1810. The Spanish people found out about the revolt which led the Spanish Government to order the arrest of Hidalgo and his officers. When Hidalgo found out, he called a meeting at his church.

He rang the church bell on the night of September 15, 1810, to call his congregation to mass.

Here Father Hidalgo rallied the people to fight. He gave the speech which is now known as ‘Grito de Delores’, saying “Viva Mexico” and “Viva la independencia!” These famous words have been remembered and are said each year at the Independence Day celebrations.

INDEPENDENCE DAY IS SEPTEMBER 16, NOT MAY 5 In countries outside of Mexico, the holiday Cinco De Mayo is very popular and has gotten labeled as Mexican Independence Day, however, this is incorrect.

The fifth of May actually marks the Mexican victory over France in the Battle of Puebla. September 16th is the day Mexico claimed its independence and began the war against Spain, also known as Mexican Independence Day. INDEPENDENCE DAY IS A

Guanajuato, Mexico. His proclamation that night that all people should band together and fight against the Spanish government, became known as the infamous “El Grito” or Cry of Independence.

EACH YEAR EL GRITO IS REENACTED BY THE CURRENT MEXICAN PRESIDENT

TWO-DAY CELEBRATION. Mexicans participate in “El Grito de Dolores” every September 15 at 11 PM, and the following day they have celebrations much like the 4th of July in the United States with parades, food, and family parties. On the 16th of September schools, most workplaces, and federal buildings are closed.

THE LEADER OF THE MEXICAN WAR OF INDEPENDENCE WAS ALSO A PRIEST. Father Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla, also known as simply, Miguel Hidalgo, was the “Father of the Nation” and rallied his people during mass on the evening of September 15, 1810 in Dolores,

He rings the bell of the National Palace in Mexico City then recites a cry of patriotism, ending with ¡Viva Mexico!, a phrase that Mexicans commonly use to express their love of country. Additionally, other reenactments occur all over the country by officials of towns and cities. They even preform the EL Grito in Puerto Vallarta, recited by the mayor each year.

PEOPLE ALL OVER THE WORLD CELEBRATE MEXICAN INDEPENDENCE DAY, NOT JUST PEOPLE IN MEXICO. Being one of the most important holidays of Mexico, anyone with Mexican roots decorates their house with the flag colors of red, green, and white at this time of the year. Cities with large Mexican populations such as Houston, Texas, and Los Angeles, California have their own Mexican Independence day parades and celebrations where “paisanos”, or fellow countrymen, can join each other in celebration of their country.

moment included, and ending with the threefold shout of ¡Viva México! from the balcony of the palace to the assembled crowd in the Plaza de la Constitución, or Zócalo, one of the largest public plazas in the world.

In both cases, as world-wide, after each line the crowd responds in return by shouting ¡Viva! The bell rings for a second time, followed by the waving of the Mexican flag and the singing of the Mexican National Anthem.

In our local Independence Celebration, our own Mexican Consulate also re-enacts the same civic ceremony by ringing a bell and giving the traditional words, with the names of Mexican Independence heroes included, ending with the threefold shout of ¡Viva México!

Come join in this exciting traditional event with food, music, and live performances; -as well you will be able to watch the live-feed on the large projector screens of the re-enactments and celebrations from the Zócalo in Mexico City, as well as others all over the world.

When making their bids, all bidders except the Secretary must submit a deposit totaling approximately $30,432.27 in the form of certified check or cashier's check made out to the Secretary of HUD. A deposit need not accompany an oral bid. If the successful bid is oral, a deposit of $30,432.27 must be presented before the bidding is closed.

The deposit is nonrefundable.

The remainder of the purchase price must be delivered within 30 days of the sale or at such other time as the Secretary may determine for good cause shown, time being of the essence. This amount, like the bid deposits, must be delivered in the form of a certified or cashier's check. If the Secretary is the highest bidder, he need not pay the bid amount in cash. The successful bidder will pay all conveyancing fees, all real estate and other taxes that are due on or after the delivery date of the remainder of the payment and and all other costs associated with the transfer of title. At the conclusion of the sale, the deposits of the unsuccessful bidders will be returned to them.

All extensions will be for 15-day increments for a fee of $500.00, paid in advance.

The extension fee shall be paid in the form of a certified or cashier's check made payable to the Secretary of HUD. If the high bidder closes the sale prior to the expiration of any extension period, the unused portion of the extension fee shall be applied toward the amount due. If the high bidder is unable to close the sale

within the required period, or within any extensions of time granted by the Secretary, the high bidder may be required to forfeit the cash deposit or, at the election of the foreclosure commissioner after consultation with the HUD representative, will be liable to HUD for any costs incurred as a result of such failure.

The Commissioner may, at the discretion of the HUD representative, offer the property to the second highest bidder for an amount equal to the highest price offered by that bidder.

There is no right of redemption, or right of possession based upon a right of redemption, in the trustor(s) or others subsequent to a foreclosure completed pursuant to the Act. Therefore, the Foreclosure Commissioner will issue a Deed to the purchaser(s) upon receipt of the entire purchase price in accordance with the terms of the sale as provided herein. HUD does not guarantee that the property will be vacant. The scheduled foreclosure sale shall be cancelled or adjourned if it is established, by documented written application of the mortgagor to the Foreclosure Commissioner not less than 3 days before the date of sale, or otherwise, that the default or defaults upon which the foreclosure is based did not exist at the time of service of this notice of default and foreclosure sale, or all amounts due under the mortgage agreement are tendered the Foreclosure to Commissioner, in the form of a certified or cashier's check payable to the Secretary of HUD, before public auction of the property is completed.

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) 280-2832 or visit this Internet Web site WWW.AUCTION.COM, using the file number assigned to case 064700-CA. this 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.
