SDUHSD approves 2016-17 budget BY KAREN BILLING The San Dieguito Union High School District board approved its 2016-17 budget in a contentious 3-2 vote on June 30. Trustees Mo Muir and John Salazar voted against it. The budget includes a projected $129 million in revenue and $136 million in expenditures, a deficit of $6.7 million. The budget meets the board’s recommended 4.5 percent level of

reserve funds, with an end balance of $13 million. The budget reflects an increase in revenue due to an estimated increase in property tax of 5 percent and an increase in state funding under the Local Control Funding Formula. Expenditures are up overall due to the 5.5 percent salary increases approved for all employees, additional staffing at Pacific Trails Middle School and an

increase in counselors, psychologists and social workers. Despite the 3-2 vote, trustee Amy Herman said she appreciated how many of the board’s suggestions were added to the budget this year, such as more class options and sections at Torrey Pines and La Costa Canyon, more counselors and more campus security. “I’m proud of the work this team

did,” Superintendent Rick Schmitt said. “Everything you all asked for we were able to deliver and I’m proud of that. This team made it happen and some of it was daunting…There’s so many good things in that budget that I think will benefit the kids.” Salazar’s concerns were related to the district’s reserve level dropping from $19 million to $13 million and that SEE BUDGET, A22

Citizen-initiated measure headed to November ballot BY KRISTINA HOUCK This November Del Mar residents will get to decide whether voter approval should be required for sizable developments citywide. Rather than adopt an ordinance they didn’t support, the Del Mar City Council on July 5 agreed to place a citizen-initiated measure on the ballot that would require voter approval for development projects in any commercial zone that are 25,000 square feet or larger by amending the community plan, housing This is about element and municipal code. projects of “I recognize the people’s right to uncharacteristic put this on the ballot, and I think it’s huge density that destroy our values an important right,” Councilman Don Mosier said. “I regret that the and the beauty of proposed ordinance wasn’t better Del Mar. written.” A group opposed to the size of Arnold Wiesel, ballot proponent Watermark Del Mar, a proposed 48-unit multifamily complex for the corner of Jimmy Durante Boulevard and San Dieguito Drive, submitted a petition to the city on May 18 with 505 signatures from residents supporting the ballot measure. Only 286 signatures, representing 10 percent of the registered voters in the city, were needed to qualify the measure for the upcoming general election. San Diego County Registrar of Voters confirmed on June 24 that the measure met the required number of signatures. Spearheaded by Arnold Wiesel, who lives near the project site, the measure asks if voter approval should be required for developments in a commercial zone that are 25,000 square feet or larger, allow a density bonus or require a specific plan, a zoning code change or an increase in the building height limit, floor area ratio or lot coverage. “This city has spoken very, very loudly through its petition,” Wiesel said to the council. “You’re supposed to be representative and I’m sure that’s an SEE MEASURE, A19

Rob Coppo selected as new principal of Torrey Pines High The San Dieguito Union High School District Board of Trustees and Superintendent Rick Schmitt recently announced that Rob Coppo is returning to the San Dieguito Union High School District (SDUHSD) to serve as principal of Torrey Pines High School (TPHS). Coppo is currently the Assistant Director of Career Technical Education in the Grossmont Union High School District. Coppo takes over for David Jaffe, who was Rob Coppo recently selected to lead the Rancho Santa Fe School District as superintendent. Coppo is in his 18th year in education and previously served as an assistant principal of Torrey Pines High School from 2008 to 2015. Last year, Coppo led career technical education in the Grossmont Union High School District. Prior to this experience, he was a high school English and video production teacher, a WASC site coordinator, a soccer coach, a technology mentor, and was selected as Teacher of the Year in the Escondido Union High School District. Coppo and his family have long been

a part of the community. Not only did Coppo work at Torrey Pines for seven years, he is also a graduate of the school. As a proud member of the TPHS class of 1986, he will be attending his 30th high school reunion in August. His sister and father still live in the area. Two of his nieces graduated from Torrey Pines, and one more will graduate from TPHS in 2019. Coppo currently lives in La Mesa, where his son will be a junior at Grossmont High School, and his daughter will be an eighth grader at La Mesa Arts Academy. Asked about the transition from his current position in the Grossmont District to the TPHS Principalship, Coppo said: “I have enjoyed working in the Grossmont District and having the opportunity to lead important work around pathways and whole school improvement. It is difficult to leave such a great position, and I will miss the students and staff I was lucky enough to work with over the last year. “As much as I have enjoyed my current position, the opportunity to return to SDUHSD to lead my alma mater is too great to pass up. I feel honored to be chosen to lead a school that means so much to me and my SEE COPPO, A22

Suspect wanted for home burglary and identity theft

San Diego County Crime Stoppers and investigators from the North Coastal Sheriff’s Station are asking for the public’s help to identify and locate a man wanted for using stolen credit cards and a home burglary. The home burglary happened sometime between June 13 and June 16 while a duplex in the 1900 block of Coast Boulevard in Del Mar was being fumigated. The duplex was ransacked and $20,000 worth of electronics, jewelry, purses and credit cards were stolen. Three people live in the duplex and their credit cards were used at a Target, Walmart and Macy’s in Chula Vista on June 15 and June 16. The suspect is described as a Hispanic or white man between 30 and 40 years old. He

stands about 5’10” tall, weighs about 180 pounds with a shaved head and a goatee. He was last seen wearing a white and gray striped shirt, blue jeans and white sneakers. Both of his arms are covered in tattoos and it appears he also has a tattoo on the left side of his neck. He was seen leaving the store in a 2000 gold Jeep Grand Cherokee. Anyone with information on this case should call the North Coastal Sheriff’s Station at (760) 966-3500 or the Crime Stoppers anonymous tip line at (888) 580-8477.

Solana Beach School Board OKs construction, design firms for school improvement projects BY KRISTINA HOUCK In preparing for a potential general obligation bond on the November ballot, the Solana Beach School Board recently approved three construction firms to work on various capital improvement projects. After soliciting a request for proposals from contractor firms, the school district received responses from nine firms and eight of those firms submitted a proposal. Following interviews with the firms on June 20, district staff selected Balfour Beatty Construction, McCarthy Building

Companies, Inc. and TELACU Construction Management. Balfour Beatty Construction built the district’s nearly $28 million Solana Ranch Elementary School in Pacific Highlands Ranch. McCarthy Building Companies is currently rebuilding Earl Warren Middle School in Solana Beach. TELACU Construction Management has assisted the district in planning and constructed a middle school in Vista Unified School District. SEE SB SCHOOLS, A21

Rancho Santa Fe murder victims stabbed by aunt

$100M allocated for highway and rail improvements in North County The California Transportation Commission voted June 30 to allocate $103.7 million to the San Diego region to extend carpool lanes on Interstate 5 (I-5) and add a second track to a portion of the coastal rail line in North San Diego County. The funding will enable the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) and the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) to begin construction on a $700 million package of projects, aimed to accomplish the following goals: · Expand travel choices by extending the carpool lanes on I-5 from Lomas Santa Fe Drive to State Route 78. · Increase the efficiency and reliability of the rail corridor with two double tracking projects across the San Elijo and Batiquitos Lagoons. · Add bike/pedestrian improvements in Encinitas and Carlsbad. The interchanges at Encinitas Boulevard and Santa Fe Drive will be upgraded with new bike/pedestrian paths. · Restore the San Elijo Lagoon, specifically to improve tidal flow and water quality and expand the salt marsh habitat. Construction is scheduled to begin in late 2016. The projects comprise the first phase of the North Coast Corridor Program, a $6 billion investment in infrastructure and environmental improvements along the coast between La

Jolla and Oceanside over the next 30 years. “This transportation corridor is among the most important assets in our region,” said SANDAG Chair and San Diego County Board of Supervisors Chair Ron Roberts. “Once again, we are pleased that by combining state funding with our local TransNet half-cent sales tax, we are able to move forward with much needed improvements that provide congestion relief and enhanced rail services. The vote by the CTC demonstrates the importance of having a dedicated local source of funding to leverage outside dollars to get key regional infrastructure built.” Approximately 25 percent of the North Coast Corridor program funding will come from TransNet, the voter-approved, half-cent sales tax for local transportation projects, which is administered by SANDAG. “The CTC vote marks a pivotal milestone for the North Coast Corridor Program and moves us closer to the start of construction” said Caltrans I-5 Corridor Director Allan Kosup. “We look forward to beginning construction on the first set of transportation and environmental enhancements near Encinitas later this year.” To date, 67 percent of the coastal rail corridor in San Diego County has been double tracked. About $1 billion of rail improvement projects are under SEE IMPROVEMENTS, A20

County fair sets attendance record BY PHIL DIEHL The 2016 San Diego County Fair, which closed with an Independence Day bang Monday, set an overall attendance record of 1,609,481 guests, the most since the fair began in 1880, a fair official said Tuesday, July 5. It also was the longest fair ever, 26 days, a fact certain to have figured in the attendance record and made possible by the calendar, which placed the July Fourth holiday on a Monday. “Any time there is an opportunity to extend the days of the fair, we want to take advantage of that,” said fair spokeswoman Linda Zweig. “It helps us attract more folks locally, and out of town as well.” Dates chosen for the fair — one of the 10 largest in North America — depend on many factors, including allowing time to prepare for the start of the next big event at the fairgrounds, the 40-day summer thoroughbred horse-racing season that begins July 15. This year’s fair attendance surpassed the previous high mark of 1,517,508 set in 2012, when the fair was 24 days long. The fair’s average daily attendance record, set in 2011, was 64,187 people per day for a 22-day run. The 2012 daily average remains second with 63,229, and this year’s 61,903 is third. Fair officials have said 2011 and 2012 were good years for the fair because the county was in the tail end of the Great Recession. “When the economy was down, our

Fairgoers cheer as Bernie Sanders takes the lead to beat the other racing pigs, Hillary Rod-Ham Clinton, Donald Trumproast and Barack-O-Ribs Obama, at the fair. attendance was up,” Zweig said. People who could not afford to leave the county for a vacation went to the fair instead. The coastal climate is always inviting, ticket prices are affordable, and discounts and bargains are easy to find, she said. “The San Diego County Fair gives everybody a chance to escape,” she said. The fair tends to build momentum as it goes along, and Sunday, July 3, was the

biggest day of this year’s run with 96,501 visitors. That includes more than 10,000 people who came to see Calibre 50, the Mexican quartet that performed on the Grandstand Stage. The popularity of grandstand acts is another factor in overall attendance. This year’s theme was “Mad About the Fair,” which combined the classic Lewis Carroll story “Alice’s Adventures in

Wonderland” with a bit of steampunk designed to appeal to all ages. Sales of all things at the fair were good this year, Zweig said, although final numbers for revenue won’t be available for months. This year’s livestock auction, always one of the biggest events, raised $432,031 for 4-H and FFA youths. Food remained as popular as ever at the fair, as shown by statistics in a news release Tuesday from the fairgrounds: Australian Battered Potatoes used more than 7 tons of potatoes; Bacon-A-Fair used more than 21,000 pounds of bacon; the Grill Cheese A-Fair averaged 600 grilled cheese sandwiches a day, up 55 percent from 2015; Biggy’s Meat Market sold 2 tons of ribs; Corn Star sold 50,000 ears of corn; and Pinks sold more than 20,800 hot dogs. Country Fair Cinnamon, one of several purveyors of the sweet, sticky pastries, used 15,000 pounds of flour, 3 tons of cinnamon and sugar, 1,500 pounds of cream cheese frosting and 360 pounds of walnuts. The lost-and-found office also did a brisk business. Among the items there were 58 sets of keys, 114 pairs of glasses, 36 wallets and purses, 217 pieces of clothing including 96 hats, and 138 credit cards. That office, which remains open in the marketing office at the fairgrounds, also collected 221 cellphones, of which 187 were returned to their owners and 34 remained in the lost-and-found as of Tuesday, July 5. — Phil Diehl is a writer for The San Diego Union-Tribune.

Superintendent Schmitt honored by county on last day

BY KAREN BILLING As Superintendent Rick Schmitt conducted his last piece of business, overseeing Thursday night’s San Dieguito Union High School District meeting, County Supervisor Dave Roberts proclaimed June 30 Rick Schmitt Day throughout the County of San Diego. “I think when we look around the state of California and look at well-run high school districts, people think of San Dieguito and they think of you — quite frankly, that’s why you got stolen from us,” said Roberts, who is also a parent of two children in the district. “Everybody that I talk to around the state just praises you. We all admire you, we all respect you.” Schmitt planned to leave the day after his last meeting in Encinitas to start immediately at his new post as

superintendent at the San Ramon Valley Unified District on July 1. Schmitt was a part of the district for 13 years, serving as principal at Torrey Pines High School for three years, six years as the associate superintendent of educational services and one year as deputy superintendent before becoming superintendent in 2013. He thanked the board for their faith in him and the opportunity to serve in all of those leadership roles. Both of Schmitt’s children graduated from Torrey Pines High School and he said he wasn’t expecting to leave SDUHSD, but it was an opportunity to lead a growing school district and to return to the Bay Area where he and his wife started their family many years ago and where much of his extended family currently lives.

Schmitt took time to thank his executive team of associate superintendents, noting that none of the district’s many great accomplishment would happen without his “partners.” He thanked his executive assistant Joann Schultz, noting that he benefited from her 30 years of knowledge of the district, as well as all of the trustees on the board. He also noted he was very proud that three of the district’s leadership team will be going on to superintendent positions: Torrey Pines High School Principal David Jaffe to the Rancho Santa Fe School District; Canyon Crest Academy Principal Karl Mueller to the Coronado Unified School District; and Associate Superintendent Jason Viloria to the Laguna Beach Unified School District. “I have fond memories all around as an employee and a parent,” Schmitt said.

Del Mar Rotary supports Del Mar Lifeguard Rescue Divers The Del Mar Rotary Club’s $5,296 donation of SCUBA gear to the Del Mar Lifeguard Department improves rescue diver communications, navigation and personal safety, and cuts maintenance costs in half. “With this grant, Del Mar Rotary helps lifeguards save lives in Del Mar, and on mutual-aid missions throughout greater San Diego,” said Del Mar Rotary Club President Eric Nelte. “It was great being with the lifeguards today as they tested their new equipment in the cool ocean water . . . and I was

pleased that they found their targe — me! — in record time,” Nelte added. Lifeguard rescue divers rely on sophisticated navigation and communications gear in search, rescue and recovery missions - often in turbulent, low-to-zero visibility situations. Calls include emergency searches for missing swimmers and divers, as well as traffic and aviation accident recoveries. “Thanks to Rotary’s generous donation of four sets of

equipment,” Deputy Chief Mark Rathsam said, “suddenly we are one third of the way to our goal of a single, standardized regulator, inflator, and compass/computer suite for all of our 12 dive team members. “The grant from Rotary makes us better and safer, and lowers maintenance costs by allowing us to use a single vendor for specialty repairs and reconditioning.” For more information, visit www.delmarlifeguard.com and www.delmarrotary.org.

San Elijo Lagoon Conservancy adds canyon trail Steep climb takes hikers to commanding view of San Elijo reserve, ocean

BY PHIL DIEHL The San Elijo Lagoon Conservancy opened a new trail recently that takes hikers through a previously off-limits slot canyon to a high overlook of the surrounding preserve and the nearby ocean. The short trail expands the 7-mile system used by hikers and runners within the 979-acre lagoon ecological reserve at the border of Solana Beach and Encinitas. The reserve is maintained by the conservancy and the county and state parks departments. Annie’s Canyon Trail is “a great addition,” said conservancy Executive Director Doug Gibson. “There are two sections. One is a moderate climb, and the other is a little more difficult.” The slot canyon has always been part of the reserve in a remote area on the eastern end. It was difficult to reach and marked by no-trespassing signs that only “kept out.. the law-abiding citizens,” Gibson said. Others went there illegally to drink and smoke, he said. Some people call the area “the mushroom caves,” a reference to mind-altering psilocybin mushrooms sometimes consumed

Finishing the harder route of the trail, hikers, left, reach the summit of Annie’s Canyon Trail, which offers views to the ocean, part of the trail’s opening ceremony held recently at San Elijo Lagoon Ecological Reserve in Solana Beach and Encinitas. there. The sandstone cliffs were covered with graffiti, carvings and spray paint. “People were destroying this sensitive area,” San Diego County Parks and Recreation Director Brian Albright said Wednesday. “We are

going to change that by opening it up and shining a light on it. It’s no longer off the beaten path.” The high sandstone bluffs are unlike anything else accessible to the public along Southern California’s coastal lagoons,

Albright said. Letting people in and controlling illegal activity provides a positive public presence that keeps the ecological reserve healthy, he said. “One thing that makes the San Elijo Lagoon unique is that the

conservancy is very robust and well established,” he said. “Their volunteer base is stronger than any other lagoon organization that I’m familiar with. It’s a great partnership for us.” A long-time patron of the conservancy donated $100,000 to cover the costs of the trail project, Gibson said. The new pathway is known as Annie’s Canyon Trail in her honor, though the donor wishes to remain anonymous. Conservancy volunteers helped build the trails, clean up years of trash, and install fencing, stairs and switchbacks, he said. They scraped off the graffiti to return the canyon to its more natural state. Now that the area is open to the public, it will be closely watched for any new vandalism. Wildlife cameras have been installed in some areas and could document any destruction. “We think this is the right thing to do,” Gibson said. “It’s a cool thing to get into a slot canyon right along the coast, something created millions of years ago. Every rain event it erodes a little more.” – Phil Diehl is a writer for the San Diego Union-Tribune

CV teen organizes RACE PINK for Breast Cancer walk A Carmel Valley teenager is holding the first annual RACE PINK for Breast Cancer, a walk at NTC Park at Liberty Station on Sunday, July 10 from 9 a.m. - 11 a.m. Kylie Bobertz, who will be a senior this fall at Canyon Crest Academy, is planning the race on her own and all proceeds will go toward the American Cancer Society for breast cancer research. She is passionate about the cause after her mother, Charlene Stein, was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2011 when Kylie was in the sixth grade. “It was really tough, seeing her go through that and wanting to be there for her but not really being sure what to do,” Kylie said. Her mother is now cancer free and Kylie is determined to give back in any way she can. This is Kylie’s first big fundraiser she has attempted for breast cancer research. Last year she honed her skills helping to organize a fundraising event for ReSurf, a mentorship program that teaches surfing to underprivileged children as part of her business management class at CCA. Kylie connected with KIND Snacks, which will provide free bars for everyone who comes out to RACE PINK that morning. The biggest challenge in planning the walk for Kylie was finding the right venue, getting all the right approvals and, now, getting the word out. “I hope to get more sign-ups so we can have a lot of fun and get a big group of

an Diego-based nonprofit Boys to Men Mentoring Network (BTM) launched its summer surf series at Seaside Reef in Solana Beach on June 23. The summer surf nights are a chance for fatherless teenage boys and their mentors to bond, and train for the organization’s annual fundraiser, the 100 Wave Challenge. World Championship Tour surfer and Encinitas resident Damien Hobgood is participating in the 100 Wave Challenge this year, along with legendary surfer and motivational speaker Shaun Tomson and legendary surfer and surfboard shaper Duke Aipa, among others. The goal of the 100 Wave Challenge — which will be held Saturday, Sept. 17 in Mission Beach — is for each surfer to raise at

least $1,000 and attempt to surf 100 waves in one day. There will be sections in the water for long boards, short boards, stand-up paddle boards, boogie boards and body surfers. For more information on the 100 Wave Challenge, please visit 100wave.org. Launched in 1996, Boys to Men is a nonprofit group mentoring program that helps keep young men out of the criminal justice system and improve their access to higher education. It also provides boys a place where they can hear other boys and men tell the truth about the problems they face and a community where boys know they are not alone. BTM has mentored over 6,000 boys and has trained mentors in 24 states.

SDJA football program pushing on amid challenges

BY GIDEON RUBIN Jordan Battaglia is about as staunch a supporter of San Diego Jewish Academy’s football program as you’ll find on the Carmel Valley campus. But the talented three-sport athlete, who’ll be a senior this fall, admits that there are times when he himself has his doubts about where football fits into his demanding academic and athletic schedule. In the end, Battaglia turns the same pitch on himself that he uses for fellow SDJA student athletes he’s trying to recruit. “If you want to go to a Jewish school that has a football team,” Battaglia said, “how are you not playing?” Although it wasn’t clear until earlier this month that the school would be able to field a football team this year, all indications are that Battaglia and the Lions will be playing. Growing concerns about concussions and the growing popularity of lacrosse in recent years are among the factors making it tougher for the school to recruit football players. Keeping up a tradition for a 15th straight season since the school became the nation’s first Jewish day school to field a football team in 2002 has becoming a rallying cry for supporters of the program, who’ve faced daunting challenges since Day 1. “That’s definitely a factor,” Lions coach Skip Carpowich said. “There’s a symbolism to it. Despite the adversity, there’s something extra at our school, an extra meaning because these are Jewish kids and top students that are saying ‘We can have a football team and we’re going to do it.’ ‘’ SDJA has done it, remaining one of the few Jewish Day Schools in the nation to field a football team. “We’re proud of that,” Carpowich said. To say that the Lions program doesn’t have the football tradition of other local schools in one of the state’s most competitive regions would be an understatement. But the Lions do count several players who’ve gone on to four-year colleges among their alumni. Rami Lieberman, a placekicker/punter/receiver who graduated earlier this year, will play at Claremont McKenna, a Division III program

starting this fall. The program’s football alumni includes current Seattle Seahawks long-snapper Drew Ferris. Battaglia, who’s being recruited by several four-year colleges for basketball, acknowledged that few, if any, players on the football team expect to continue their careers in college. No matter. He insists the sport offers important life lessons that everyone involved with the program can learn from. “I learned a lot about being a man, taking responsibility and being accountable,” he said. “More than any other sport, I think (football) teaches camaraderie. In order to win you have to put your teammates ahead of yourself.” Battaglia acknowledged cultural barriers too, noting that few Jewish kids play Pop Warner ball. SDJA has never had a junior varsity team, and the Lions have scrambled to put freshmen on the field with juniors and seniors. “They’re like ‘Oh, I just played middle school flag football for three years, what’s this?’” “Football isn’t really part of our culture,” he said. “For there to be a Jewish football team it really shows something, that even though Jews are a minority, we can play with the big dogs. Like we have throughout our history.”

Battaglia believes the Lions program is helping transform a culture. “That’s certainly one of the biggest aspects in my opinion,” he said. “That’s one of the biggest reasons why we should continue.” For most of SDJA’s history, the football program has played on the 8-man circuit. The Lions went to 11-man football in 2009 before returning to 8-man football two years ago. They’ve struggled the last two seasons, going a combined 1-10-1. But there is still a great sense of pride in continuing the program, which enjoys strong support from alumni and families who understand the value of the program can’t be measured by wins and losses. “I definitely want to be a part of that fraternity that comes back and talks to kids, to try to fill the shoes that are left,” Battaglia said, noting that the football experience develops a toughness that isn’t comparable to other sports. “Especially as a Jew, you need to learn to know how to defend your religion and go out in the world and defend yourself,” he said. Carpowich has about 18 players committed to playing this year, more than enough to field a team in the Ocean League, where most schools face a similar challenge fielding teams from year to year. “If there’s a competitive imbalance there’s a sportsmanship aspect where hopefully more JV players or younger kids get in and they match up with our guys,” he said. Carpowich acknowledged that it may not be possible to field a team every year, but said he believes the school is committed to continuing the program. “The football program at a Jewish day school is very unique when you look around the United States, so it means something from that perspective,” Carpowich said. “It means something in terms of the student experience. “It creates an enhancement to the student experience to have pep rallies, to have homecoming games and to see your school go out and compete and generate school spirit.”

Timothy Sah, B18s winner

Just moments after 16-year-old tennis player Timothy Sah of San Diego completed his goal of winning the 114th Annual SCTA Junior Sectionals in the Boys’ 18s singles division, his mind quickly turned to USTA Nationals events and the rest of his summer plans. “I think this will give me a lot of confidence for the rest of the summer,” said the No. 4-seeded Sah, a Torrey Pines High junior who beat his training partner and Sectional winning doubles partner Ryan Seggerman of Coronado, 6-2, 6-2, on the final day of the tournament played at the Los Caballeros Racquet Club. “We’ve been playing each other since the 12s so I knew what to expect. It’s tough to play someone you know so well. I just

got into a rhythm and tried to play my game.” SCTA Manager of Junior Team Tennis Ken Grassel was on hand to watch the two former Junior Team Tennis teammates Sah and Seggerman, who also captured the 18s Sectional doubles title on Saturday. In fact, Grassel had a team autographed photo showing a younger Sah and Seggerman next to each other in their winning 2013 USTA Advanced 14-and-under National Championship team photo. Sah said he will next turn his focus to doing some training on clay in advance of the USTA National Clay Courts in mid-July in Delray Beach before getting back on the hardcourts where he will play the Kalamazoo Hardcourt

Nationals in August. Sah, who was watched by USC Men’s Tennis Coach Peter Smith once again on Monday, is interested in playing college tennis at USC, UCLA, Stanford or Harvard, but hasn’t yet taken his official visits. Sah’s Torrey Pines High junior classmate Hannah Zhao of San Diego had a bit of a tougher time in her girls’ 18s singles final against No. 3-seeded Nicole Mossmer of La Jolla. Zhao took the first set 6-3 and seemed in control leading 5-1 in the second set. That’s when Mossmer turned up the heat and fought back to 5-4 before Zhao closed her out. “It feels pretty cool to be on the list of so many great past winners of this event,” Zhao said.

OUR READERS WRITE Roundabout concerns An open letter to the Del Mar City Manager and City Council Members: I am concerned about the the plans to go ahead with the roundabout at Jimmy Durante and San Dieguito Road. The paper said that construction is planned for October. My main concern is the access for the emergency vehicles exiting the Fire Station and driving into Del Mar. Has there been a trial run for the fire trucks and paramedics to see if if they can make it through without losing any time? About 30 years ago there was a plan to put roundabouts coming up Via Alta and Van Dyke and then another at Crest and Via Alta. After many, many conversations, the city finally, reluctantly, agreed to do a trial run and guess what - it failed. I realize that Via Alta is not a straight through street as Jimmy Durante but still there is an issue of the emergency vehicle access. What will happen when this is under construction? How will the vehicles get through during this time? A few days ago there was a fire in a home on the hill and the vehicles were here in record time. What will happen if they have to go through that roundabout several times a day? Will they get stuck in the dirt and ex-plantings that had been destroyed by the previous trucks? I don’t understand the urgency in constructing this roundabout. The Breeders Cup will be held at the track in November. People from all over the world will be attending and will they be able to access the parking at the Fairgrounds during this construction?

I would like some of these concerns addressed. I did write a letter to the City Manager and the council about the planting of Torrey Pines at the new city Hall and only heard back from two council members and Kathy Garcia. So , I am hopeful this time to get some solid answers to my concerns – there are many other people that feel this way. Jill Coughlin, A Del Mar resident for 47 years

David Jaffe a great educator Kudos to David Jaffe who was able to serve in the SDUHSD school system for such a long time. School workers like this give me hope that they are passing on this gumption to their students. I have hope for my peers to get a great education from great educators like Mr. Jaffe. I am greatly encouraged. May many more educators do the same. Grant Gilly, Carmel Valley

Pedestrian crossover crucial Shame, shame, shame on the city council for approving One Paseo. I’m not against it per se, but nothing should be built there that involves pedestrians going back and forth between One Paseo and the Del Mar Highlands shopping center without a pedestrian crossover between the two. Having people push the button to get a

green light to cross between the two will cause more traffic problems than anything else. Mark my words, it’s going to be a mess. I brought it up to several people during the planning stages and all I heard back was “there are no current plans for such a crossover”. Well duh! Make plans and make the developer pay for it. The people on the city council are so inept and incompetent it’s unbelievable that this was not at least on the table. Of course they don’t care about the traffic mess this is going to create. They just care about tax revenue, votes, and of course, their nice pension. Jim Cronin

Will of the people subverted The One Paseo process was a good example of how the will of the people (of Carmel Valley) was subverted and ineffective. This was due to a disruptive governmental and communication process within the City of San Diego and also the “deep” reporting of the San Diego Union-Tribune by withholding some of the damaging evidence of what the project will cause. To some degree is is also due to the culture of Kilroy Realty, as the same process was used in Los Angeles Kilroy projects. Contrast that with the process of the Caruso project in Carlsbad that was used. There, because of better business ethics and culture, and good government, the will of the people was effective. John Fiscella, Carmel Valley

PGA Junior League Golf is growing in popularity With the nationwide program exploding in the past few years, 20 facilities in the greater San Diego area will be hosting multiple PGA Junior League Golf teams this season, including Encinitas Ranch, Rancho Santa Fe Golf Course, The Farms and Lomas Santa Fe Country Club. PGA Junior League Golf is designed as a fun, social and inclusive opportunity for boys and girls ages 13 and under to learn and enjoy the game of golf under the direction of PGA and LPGA Professionals who serve as team captains. In all, a record 30,000 kids around the country participated on 2,500 Junior

League teams last year, a 233 percent increase since 2013. Kids wear numbered jerseys and play on teams with their friends, utilizing the two-person scramble format for competition, in order to reinforce the team concept and create a nurturing environment for learning the game, according to a news release. The program has also gained the support of several PGA and LPGA Tour players, including Rory McIlroy, Michelle Wie, Rickie Fowler and Lexi Thompson, who are Official Ambassadors for PGA Junior League Golf. “Golf is a great sport for parents to consider for their

kids, and PGA Junior League Golf brings a fun, team concept to a game that can be played for a lifetime,” said Scott Kmiec, senior director, PGA REACH. “Through PGA Junior League Golf, PGA and LPGA Professionals are providing golf instruction to boys and girls along with teaching them the character skills and values of the game that they can carry into their adult lives.” PGA Junior League Golf is the key youth program of PGA REACH, the charitable arm of the PGA of America.

www.delmartimes.net FROM SOLANA, A1 character of the community and that was our goal all along — to preserve that small-town feeling. We really have worked hard as a community to do that.” It was the seemingly never-ending threat of development that prompted Solana Beach residents, led by a group called Citizens Intending to Incorporate, to seek cityhood. In fact, in its first independent act, the first council booted the county out of city affairs 12 hours early. After learning that San Diego County still legally had control of Solana Beach until the new council was sworn in, the newly elected council members moved up the swearing in ceremony to prevent the county from issuing building permits throughout the day. Mayor Margaret Schlesinger, Deputy Mayor Jack Moore and Councilmembers Marion Dodson, Richard Hendlin and Celine Olson were sworn in at 7 a.m. July 1, 1986 on the beach, with a formal ceremony and party celebrating the birth of the city at 7 p.m. at Solana Vista School. “There were developers who were very frightened of what city of Solana Beach would mean to their projects,” recalled Hendlin, who was one of three founding council members in attendance, along with Dodson and Olson. “And the county was happy to oblige them by continuing to grant permits, even knowing that on June 3 the citizens of Solana Beach had voted to become a city.” Wearing an old T-shirt that advocated cityhood, Dodson explained that the city was incorporated after the third attempt by advocates.

NORTH COAST - JULY 7, 2016 - PAGE A19

“It was really an interesting effort,” she said. “It did pull a lot of different people from all corners of the city together. We worked really hard and we were incorporated.” In its second independent act, the council approved a 45-day moratorium on new building permits. At the time, more than two dozen building permits were pending in Solana Beach. “The shared experience that the five original council members had was such a unique bond,” Hendlin said. “We were starting from scratch. It’s the first city. We had no precedent. What we had together was a vision.” Among many tasks, that first council, Dodson said, approved building a fire station and city hall. “Del Mar is just now planning their city hall after all these years,” Dodson noted. “We worked as a team,” she added. “We had to. We had so much to do, we had to work as a team.” The 30th anniversary of the coastal community was also an occasion to celebrate the legacy that Schlesinger, the city’s first mayor, left behind. Schlesinger died in February at the age of 80. “I believe our city represents the best of what it means to be a city, and Margaret represented the best of what it means to be a representative and an advocate on behalf of our city,” Solana Beach Mayor David Zito said. “Over the years, I learned to respect her ability to listen to others and try to internalize all viewpoints when forming opinions,” Zito added. “Her ability to stick to the facts and empathize with others who had differing viewpoints are traits that I will miss terribly and we’re certainly missing in many of the political discourse

FROM MEASURE, A1 important goal for you. Get on board. Let’s do this. The city just wants to have a say in what happens.” Proposed by Watermark DM LP, a partnership between San Dieguito Land Partners and Kitchell, Watermark includes 48 units that range from studios to three-bedrooms in one- and two-story buildings. The project also includes 108 parking spaces — 96 assigned stalls for the units and 12 guest stalls — in an underground structure, a pool and spa area and a recreation room. The 2.3-acre lot is used for parking during special events at the Del Mar Fairgrounds. Because the land is currently zoned for commercial use, the lot would have to be rezoned as residential to move the project forward. A number of other changes and permits would also have to be approved by the city and California Coastal Commission. To streamline the process, the council voted in July 2014 to allow the developer to use a specific plan. The specific plan process sets a special set of development standards for a specific geographical area, creates a land use designation and zone for the property, and requires opportunities for community participation throughout the process.

that we see today. These traits that Margaret had were key drivers in the formation of Solana Beach and what made the city so great.” Schlesinger played an important part in the city’s incorporation in 1986. She was the top vote-getter elected to the first council that year, and her fellow council members appointed her as mayor. To honor Schlesinger’s contributions to Solana Beach, staff distributed stickers with the city seal and her name. Among various treats for the occasion, there were two cakes, one with the city seal and another with a picture of Schlesinger. Zito said the city will also be creating pins and renovating the mayor’s conference room, which is known as Margaret Schlesinger’s Conference Room. “The appreciation is overwhelming,” said Schlesinger’s daughter, Ann Garrett. “My mom worked so hard for this city.” The people who pushed for Solana Beach’s incorporation did so in part because San Diego County approved plans for a hotel on a piece of coastal property previously known as the Gateway property. The 3.44-acre parcel sits along the east side of Coast Highway 101, across from Cardiff State Beach and south of the San Elijo Lagoon. Known as Harbaugh Seaside Trails today, the parcel that had long been pursued by developers is now forever preserved thanks to donations from the community. Schlesinger was on site for the January 2015 naming ceremony. “I can’t believe this is happening,” she said at the time. “It is just so wonderful. It’s a gift for the community.” Past and current city officials and community members alike proudly highlighted the many ways that Solana Beach has become a

Although Watermark inspired the initiative, Wiesel said in a previous interview that he and his group are looking beyond the proposed project. “This is not about Watermark,” he said at the time. “This is about projects of uncharacteristic huge density that destroy our values and the beauty of Del Mar. It’s about what could happen to the community if the community can’t be involved and have a say.” With the signatures verified, the council had to decide whether to adopt the measure without alteration or place it on the Nov. 8 ballot for a vote. Council members agreed in the people’s right to put the measure on the ballot, but disagreed with the way the measure was broadly written. “I’m a believer in the right of the public to put measures on the ballot,” Councilman Dwight Worden said. “The people’s right of initiative is not a right that government gave them. It’s a right the people kept when they created government and the courts have consistently said it’s fundamental and it’s important.” As an attorney, however, Worden said the way the measure was crafted could lead to conflict, including legal challenge. He, in fact, has written more than a dozen initiatives around the state. “What we have to deal with here is the actual

regional leader. “I think we’ve grown very wisely,” said Gerri Retman-Opper, a Solana Beach resident since 1984, who played a critical role in the successful effort to preserve the Gateway property. “There’s been a lot of good planning. There’s been a real movement to be very careful about how we develop and to ensure that we maintain our beaches and our small-town character.” “Being our own city, being able to call our own shots on our own home, has been so important to maintaining why I came here in the first place and why most of us came here in the first place,” said Councilwoman Lesa Heebner, who has lived in the community since 1976. “I'm really proud of being a part of that.” Many agreed that Solana Beach has set itself a part because it’s been able to develop the community while maintaining the community character. Solana Beach was the first city in North County to get the railroad tracks lowered below street level in the 1990s. In 1994, the city also became the first to complete the Coastal Rail Trail, a path from San Diego to Oceanside. In addition, the city has received awards for its renovation of Fletcher Cove Park and revitalization of Highway 101. “All of these things have been driven by people in our community and probably would not have happened otherwise,” Zito said. Although it’s the second smallest city in San Diego County, Solana Beach has often led the region, and sometimes the nation, on sustainable practices. In 2003, Solana Beach became the first city in the country to ban

wording of this measure,” he said. “If it said what Mr. Wiesel articulated, that the people just want to have a say, it would be fairly straight-forward. But our attorneys have gone through what the draft actually says and there are a lot of problems in it. “I think that those problems will surface at some point in time,” he added. “In my judgment, I could be wrong, major portions of this initiative will be invalidated, perhaps the whole thing. But now is not the time to do that.” In a legal analysis of the initiative called “Voter Approval Requirement for Certain Development Projects,” Assistant City Attorney Barry Schultz found multiple conflicts with state law. According to the report, the initiative potentially conflicts with the council’s administrative authority and single subject rule. The report states that the initiative also appears to be inconsistent with planning and zoning documents, including the community plan, housing element, zoning code, Measure B — a similar voter-approved law in place that governs large developments in the downtown area — and the local coastal program. Finally, there could be fiscal impacts associated with implementation of the initiative if passed, according to the report.

smoking on public beaches. In 2012, Solana Beach became the first city in the county to ban single-use plastic bags. And just last year, Solana Beach became the first city in the county to ban disposable plastic food containers. “So much has been accomplished in the city,” said Mary Jane Boyd, who has lived with her husband, Roger Boyd, in Solana Beach for more than 30 years. “When we came here, they were trying for the third time to get the city incorporated. We were very new and we didn’t know that many people, but it was exciting.” In celebration of the country’s independence and the city’s incorporation, Dr. Ed Siegel led the 29th annual “Patriotic Singalong” later in the evening. “This is very special,” said Siegel, a local psychiatrist and musician, who established the weekly Solana Beach Community Singalong, which will soon begin its 30th season at Fletcher Cove Community Center. Siegel, who has lived in Solana Beach since 1976, proudly said that the Singalong is the longest running weekly community event with at least 1,200 gatherings. At the end of the anniversary celebration, two locals performed “Solana Beach, Our City Proud,” which was adopted as the official city song by the council in February 2006. Siegel co-wrote the song with local lyricist Lynn Salsberg. Lexi Worms, a sixth grader at Skyline School, sang the song with accompaniment by local violinist Marguerite Ostro. “We had a vision to create a city and govern ourselves,” said former Solana Beach Mayor Joe Kellejian, who served for 20 years on the council. “We turned that vision into a reality.”

Watermark includes seven affordable units that will help Del Mar meet the state-approved requirements of its housing element. Schultz said the city is currently 22 units short of meeting the requirements. “When it (housing element) was certified, the major strategy that the state looked at was looking at the rezone to the Watermark site,” Schultz said. “The initiative specifically targets each of your implementation strategies in the housing element and requires that there by voter approval for those rezonings,” he continued. “What that does is it impedes your ability to bring your housing element into compliance with what you said you would do, and it creates an additional burden for affordable housing in the city of Del Mar.” Wiesel said Schultz’s remarks insinuated that people would oppose affordable housing if the public were to vote on development projects. “Talk about speculation,” Wiesel said. “If laws were built on speculation, when would reality ever come to play? Speculation is irrelevant. It’s out the window and it should not be used as a guideline. “I believe, in this great town of Del Mar, there are tons of people that are pro affordable housing, but done in the right environment, SEE MEASURE, A21

FROM MURDERS, A4 was not clear why Amini went to the house. Investigators said someone called 911 about 11 a.m. to report possible child abuse at the home. Nelson declined to reveal what was heard or seen, but he said a couple of juveniles and an adult, acquaintances of Hannah’s, had been in front of her house, then went a short distance down the street to call for help. No calls for help were made from inside the house. Deputies summoned by the call got no answer at the door but saw through a window a woman lying dead on the floor. They broke in and found the other two bodies in other parts of the house. The lawyer, a family friend of Amini and her husband, James Moliere, described her as delusional and suicidal since the death of her brother, who lived in the home with his Russian girlfriend. He died at age 59 after a three-year battle with lung cancer. “She (Amini) had it in her head that friends of her brother were going to blame her for her brother’s death, and perhaps people would come after her in lawsuits, to ruin her financially,” said Carl Starett, an El Cajon bankruptcy attorney. He said Amini’s husband tried twice to have her admitted to a hospital when she became suicidal recently. On June 13 she was talking of harming herself, but refused to accept admission to the hospital, Starett said. Two days later, after she’d visited her brother’s house, a family friend told Moliere that Amini needed help. He took her back to the hospital and she stayed overnight before being discharged. “I wish she’d gotten the help she needed,” Starett said. “We don’t have any information, specifically, about why she snapped. ... The only answer seems to be that she had a severe mental breakdown that wasn’t caught and treated.” Hannah was attending Verde Valley boarding and day school in Sedona, Ariz. In social media postings her many friends remember her as a kind, loving and beautiful girl. She took part in equestrian events at school. Shin looked out for Hannah after her father’s death, according to Leyla Kaya, who used to babysit Hannah and work for Arya. He owned Global Capital Group in downtown San Diego, a mortgage and real estate firm, and for a time owned Cafe Lulu in downtown San Diego. Kaya described Hannah as “savvy” and intelligent, with an interest in politics. Shin, who grew up in La Jolla and went to La Jolla High School, was a successful broker herself, her sister said. Her sister, who spoke to The San Diego Union-Tribune on condition that her name not be published, said Shin and Arya had been neighbors at one time. She said Shin was with Hannah on Sunday, June 26, making dinner for her and a teenage friend. “She had nothing to do with their family stuff,” the sister said in a telephone interview. “My sister was a practicing Buddhist. This is very odd. She’s always talking about cause and effect. I can’t understand how this has happened. …” She described Shin as a caring, strong, straightforward and assertive, yet vulnerable. Shin was unmarried and had no children. Kaya spoke of Shin as sophisticated, sassy, charming and tough. She once sold a house to tennis star Serena Williams. “She went through a rough patch (when Michael was dying),” Kaya said. “She finally felt at peace and felt like her whole life was changing for the better.”

Kaya said Hannah flew into San Diego on Saturday, June 25, and was planning to stay on through the Fourth of July. Kayla was supposed to pick her up, but plans changed and Shin drove down from Los Angeles to get her. Then Kayla, Shin and Hannah ate dinner at Cafe Gratitude in Little Italy, and got yogurt before going to the airport to pick up the girl’s friend, who flew in from Portland, Ore. Shin was happy that weekend, talking about a $70 million project she had just secured in La Jolla, Kaya said. “None of this makes sense. It’s very confusing, shocking,” Kaya said of the killings. “Mia was an innocent bystander. She came to help Hannah.” She said Arya went through a messy divorce, and Hannah lived with Arya and his girlfriend, Marina Ryzhkova. “Everything he could give his daughter, that was his goal,” Kaya said. She added that Arya and his sister never had a close relationship. Ryzhkova returned to Russia sometime after Arya’s death, and signed away her trustee rights to act for his estate in the event that Amini could not fulfill that role, according to Starett. With Amini dead, another family member could step in as trustee, or a professional could be appointed by the court, he said. Starett said he has known Amini’s husband, Moliere, for 35 years. Moliere, a software engineer, was married to Amini for 16 years and they had three sons, ages 10, 12 and 15. She was a stay-at-home mother who also managed rental properties she and her husband owned. Starett said Amini was the trustee of the Michael Arya Revocable Living Trust, and in that role had to manage the estate assets, such as paying the mortgage, utility bills, and Hannah’s tuition. Under terms of the trust, Hannah was to inherit 50 percent of the estate, and the other half was to be split among Amini, Arya’s girlfriend, Marina Ryzhkova, a niece and a nephew. Arya bought the Rancho Santa Fe house for $950,000 in 2014, according to a real estate website. The two-bedroom, three-bathroom home of 2,395 square feet was built in 1986, and is currently valued at $1.32 million, the website said. “There’s no financial incentive I can see for her (Amini) to kill Hannah,” Starett said. He noted California law prevents a murderer from reaping financial benefits from the killing. He also said he knew of no serious dispute within the family over Amini’s role as trustee or her share of the inheritance. “The pressures of being trustee might have gotten to her,” Starett added. “There were some checks that weren’t written in a timely fashion. That could have led to some family friction.” Hannah’s mother, who lives in Oregon, remarried after her divorce from Arya. Starett said public records show that on June 10, she filed a lien against the estate for child support, discovery costs and attorney’s fees totaling $125,246. A judge confirmed an order for the liens to be recorded. Starett said he doubted Amini would have had time to receive mailed notice of the lien before Monday, so it was not a likely trigger for the slayings. He said Amini’s husband is “numb” while dealing with the murder-suicide and their three sons. “He’s got to pick up the pieces and go back to work,” Starett said. “James has told me had he known this would happen, he would have done everything he could to prevent it.” – Pauline Repard is a writer for The San Diego Union-Tribune

FROM WATER, A4 down. “I feel like I’ve served my time as well as I could. I tried to raise issues and it’s time for somebody else,” Gruzdowich said in an interview. “I think we’re best served if we do have turnover in these positions.” Two of the board’s five seats are up for election this year: that of Gruzdowich, in Division 1, which covers Rancho Santa Fe; and Alan Smerican, in Division 2, which straddles I-5 in Solana Beach. Smerican has not announced whether he plans to seek another four-year term. The board’s 3-2 split on key issues such as the three-year rate plan fell along geographic lines - the three-member majority represents divisions on the western, and more densely populated, side of the district, while Gruzdowich and King’s divisions are on the eastern side of the district, which includes larger properties. Gruzdowich said his own property, where he has lived since 1993, covers 2.25 acres. At the same meeting when he announced that he won’t seek another term, Gruzdowich continued to press for changes to the district’s new rate plan, which restructured how costs are allocated among customers. Gruzdowich contends that the math used to calculate the new rate structure is flawed, because it lumps together the larger water users in his and King’s divisions with those who use less water on the west side of the district. The result, he said, is that larger water users are subsidizing the costs of those who use less water, and paying more than their fair share. “I’m sure they think they’re doing the right thing,” Gruzdowich said of the board majority. However, he said, “There’s a fundamental misunderstanding of the math, how it’s applied, and that’s my core issue with the whole approach. If you use math inappropriately, you do not get the right answer.” Gruzdowich wants the board to bring back its rate consultant to conduct additional analysis, specifically, to break the district into two zones, with different rates for the western and eastern parts of the district.

But members of the board majority disagree with Gruzdowich’s position, and say his approach is the one that’s flawed. Director Augie Daddi said the district hired both a rate consultant and legal experts to advise the board as it crafted the new rate structure, which includes four tiers of water use that progressively get more expensive as use goes up. The study showed that higher tiers of water cost more because of their source, Daddi said. “I would not have voted for it if I thought it was not fair,” Daddi said. “To (Gruzdowich), fair means getting the rates down in his division. That’s not my definition for fair,” Daddi said. “We’ve got to get the five directors working together.” Board president Michael Hogan, who also voted with the majority on the rate plan, said he has researched Gruzdowich’s two-zone proposal. “The input I have is it’s a flawed approach for meeting the standard of fair and equitable distribution of costs.” Rather than separating the district by divisions, said Hogan, the district must look at how much water its customers use. Some high users live in the western part of the district, and some lower users live on the east side. “I think usage (by) divisions is irrelevant. It needs to be looked at for the district as a whole,” Hogan said. In the future, Hogan said, he would be open to considering water budgets, a more complex way of setting rates based on the individual characteristics of customers, such as the number of people in a household and the size of their property. But for now, he said, the district has just completed an 18-month process to create its newly adopted rate structure. “I support the process. I think it was fair and equitable, it’s done, it’s completed. We have other things we need to get done,” he said. Gruzdowich, though, said he feels compelled to keep bringing up the issue, using the analogy of an illegal order given to a military officer. “We’ve been given a task and the core baseline for that is math that’s being used incorrectly. So that’s why I won’t give it up because I don’t think it’s right,” he said.

FROM IMPROVEMENTS, A4 development or planned in the corridor over the next few decades, with the goal of fully double tracking the entire 60-mile stretch of the rail corridor within the county. This stretch of the rail corridor is part of what is formally known as the Los Angeles– San Diego–San Luis Obispo Rail Corridor (LOSSAN). LOSSAN is the second busiest intercity rail corridor in the nation, supporting commuter, intercity, and freight services. Train operations on the line include Amtrak’s Pacific Surfliner; the Southern California Regional Rail Authority’s Metrolink; the North County Transit District’s COASTER passenger rail service; and Union Pacific and BNSF Railway freight rail services. Each year, more than 2.7 million intercity passengers and

4.9 million commuter rail passengers (Metrolink and COASTER) travel the LOSSAN corridor. One in every nine Amtrak riders uses the corridor. Averaging more than 700,000 vehicle trips daily, the I-5 North commute corridor serves as a critical north-south link connecting San Diego to Los Angeles County, Orange County, and Baja California, Mexico. The corridor serves as a gateway for commuters, recreational users, goods movement, business centers, and local residents, providing access to 22 percent of the region’s total jobs.

www.delmartimes.net FROM MEASURE, A19 done in the right project, done where you can still maintain sensitivities and qualities that are iconic and cherished by the town of Del Mar and its citizens.” Over an hour and a half, the council considered and discussed three agenda items relating to the initiative. Councilman Al Corti recused himself because he has property adjacent to the project area. First the council accepted a staff report regarding the initiative. Then the council accepted the city clerk’s certificate of sufficiency and voted 4-0 to place the measure on the ballot. Deputy Mayor Terry Sinnott said he was “sad” that the initiative came forward because it was “poorly done.” “It’s a shame that they did not participate or allow the normal process that this city has to air all the problems that a proposed project might have and allow the project to be scrutinized by the community in a normal process,” Sinnott said. “They came forward with this initiative evidentially distrusting those processes and distrusting how those processes would have eventually come out. “It doesn’t do specifically what I think the signatures of the initiative wanted to do,” he added. “I think it does things that’s going to jeopardize a lot of what the city’s trying to do in the area of affordable housing, get us in conflict with state law, cost us a lot of money.” Mayor Sherryl Parks agreed that the

NORTH COAST - JULY 7, 2016 - PAGE A21

people have a right to vote and to express their views, but at the same time, she asked the community to consider the city’s obligation to provide affordable housing. “It’s not going to get any easier for us,” she said. “It’s going to get harder.” The council also briefly considered crafting a competing alternative measure for the ballot. Worden offered to help draft an alternate measure that would have allowed people to vote just on the Watermark project. Among a variety of reasons, including a looming deadline and a crowded ballot, the remaining members of the council said they did not want to move forward with the option. “Even if we get a CEQA exemption it’s going to be a big rush,” Mosier said. “Also, we as a council are limited in how much we can advocate for this, so I think we would be at a competitive disadvantage with the public initiative where there are no such restrictions.” The deadline to submit a ballot measure to the Registrar of Voters is Aug. 12. If the council would have moved forward with a competing alternative measure, it would have had to gone through the environmental review process. The council would have also had to make its decision at either the July 18 or Aug. 1 council meeting. “It’s probably not a smart thing to do,” Mosier said. “The timeframe is too tight,” Sinnott agreed. “I would much rather have this initiative that’s going to the ballot to be standing on its own merits.”

FROM SB SCHOOLS, A2 With the board’s unanimous approval on June 30, staff will now negotiate fees associated with each project and task identified in the district’s Long-Range Facilities Master Plan. The district initiated the master planning process in 2011 and the completed plan, which identifies capital improvement projects districtwide, was presented to the board in 2013. According to the plan, Skyline School, which was constructed in 1955, needs to be reconstructed. Other aging campuses, such as 45-year-old Solana Vista and 30-year-old Solana Highlands, need to be modernized. With a need for school improvements, the district is currently exploring whether to place a general obligation bond on the November ballot to pay for them. If Solana Beach School District moves forward with the bond and it passes, the district plans to start with the Skyline reconstruction. In related news, the school board also unanimously approved a contract with architecture and engineering firm Lionakis. The contract, which is not to exceed $80,000 plus reimbursable expenses, would cover the firm’s design work for interim housing for Skyline students at Earl Warren Middle School. District staff is working closely with San Dieguito Union High School District officials on a formal agreement that will allow Solana Beach School District to use the temporary campus that’s currently at Earl Warren as the middle school is under construction. “Earl Warren, as they move out of that, we move into construction at Skyline,” Solana Beach School District Superintendent Terry Decker said. “Using that campus will require some changes, so we’ll need some architectural services to design those changes. It has to shift a bit.” Lionikis is one of the four architectural firms in

ATTENTION CAR COLLECTORS

the district’s pool of approved architects for the capital improvement projects identified in the Long-Range Facilities Master Plan. Lionikis also designed the reconstruction of Earl Warren and the temporary campus that currently houses its middle school students. “Using them makes a great deal of sense because they know the temporary campus and it also likely will reduce cost to us because they don’t have to familiarize themselves,” Decker said. “They can step right in, take over, design the changes and move forward.” “If we use Earl Warren, it seems like a really practical solution to the problem,” agreed board member Richard Leib, adding that he’s heard concerns from some community members thinking that the district would relocate Skyline students from the Solana Beach school to campuses in Carmel Valley. “There’s definitely a lot of misinformation out there,” he said. “But this is a very good solution in my mind.” Skyline is about a 10-acre campus, compared to Earl Warren’s roughly 40-acre site down the street. Decker explained that a number of the relocatable buildings on the interim campus have to be removed, while others need to be shifted, after the Earl Warren project is complete. San Dieguito Union High School District also has to build a bioswale, a storm water runoff conveyance system that provides an alternative to storm sewers. “So we can’t just walk in and use it as is,” Decker said. “We actually have to make some changes. That would still be far less expensive than building new interim housing.” The district would utilize the space for a year while Skyline is being reconstructed, Decker said. Staff expects to bring a formal agreement to the board in August.

FROM BUDGET, A1 with 82 percent of the budget going to salaries and benefits, it leaves very little to cut should the district need to. “The main reason I voted ‘no’ on the budget is that with a nearly $7 million projected deficit we are quickly spending our reserve funds. If the district does not get the future retirements of teachers it is hoping for (and replacing them with new hires at lower salaries), we will have no other option then but to cut staff which would raise class sizes,” Salazar stated. “I just do not believe this budget is in the best interest of our students or taxpayers.” Schmitt said there will be years when the district spends more than it collects and even during the hardest times, when its reserves were as low as 6 percent, the district was able to deliver and keep all of its programs alive without cutting staff or disrupting student performance. He said the district was able to manage and reduce its costs by doing things like not hiring new people and not considering raises. Salazar questioned how it will work for the district to not consider raises with the language in the teachers’ contract that states SDUHSD teachers must be number one in the county. “Wouldn’t we be required to give everybody a raise if another district pays more?” Salazar asked. Schmitt said it’s not a requirement at all and that particular clause has

been in the contract for many years — in 2012, SDUHSD wasn’t number one but there wasn’t a demand for salary increases which he attributes to the district’s ability to communicate and negotiate with teachers. “Anything contractual is negotiable,” he said. Muir said deficit spending is “not a responsible way to prepare a budget” and said her reason not to support the budget was due to her belief that class sizes will be increased due to the language in the teacher contracts. Muir said many teachers have contacted her and told her the class sizes are too full. “You’ve mentioned that in public numerous times and you’ve been corrected numerous times. You are wrong,” Schmitt said. “We are not increasing, the contract has nothing to do with that. We are actually the healthiest in class size we’ve been in a decade. We’ve actually reduced class sizes. “It’s been explained to you multiple times. You’re wrong, you’re reading (the contract) wrong, no one else reads it that way,” he said. “Pretty much everybody who’s looked at the contract besides you has said that,” Muir said. “I’m not going to argue with you other than to point out that we have not raised class sizes, the record shows that,” Schmitt said. “We believe we’re in great shape. The teachers believe we’re healthy in class size, the parents haven’t complained about it, the kids are thriving.”

Muir remained unconvinced and said they would have to agree to disagree. After the 3-2 vote, Herman asked Associate Superintendent of Business Services and soon-to-be Interim Superintendent Eric Dill what would happen if the majority of the board voted against the budget. Dill said if it didn’t happen on June 30, the end of the district’s fiscal year, the district would be cut off from its financial system. “That’s just one item, just one area that you disagree with, so you would vote against the entire budget and basically shut down our district on that one item?’ Herman asked Muir. “The most important thing in this district is low class sizes,” Muir stated. Herman, SDUHSD Vice President Joyce Dalessandro and SDUHSD President Beth Hergesheimer all expressed disagreement with Muir’s statement: “The most important thing is to serve our students,” Hergesheimer said. “Teachers, curriculum, I mean we could go on forever. You can’t say that’s the most important thing, besides which, it isn’t increasing,” Dalessandro said. Muir stated that everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Several parents in attendance also spoke out about the district’s addition of social workers next year. As outlined in the district’s Local Control Accountability Plan, the district proposes to add a new site social worker role at all of the high

school campuses to help support the counselors. They will also add three mental health providers, each of whom will come with two to three interns to assist. The new social worker and mental health support provider job descriptions were approved by the board at the June 30 meeting. Earl Warren parent Louisa Triandis, an adjunct lecturer in social work at the University of Southern California, said she has seen a real need for more mental health support for students and complimented the district on an excellent plan. San Dieguito High School Academy parent Pamella Franzwa, a social worker who is also a clinical associate professor at USC, also spoke in support of social workers that are uniquely trained to look at the person and the environment and could help bridge the gulf that can happen between the child and the school. She said the new role will serve a “critical function in students’ social and emotional development.” “These days, all kids have a rough go of it and anything you can do to help them to navigate appropriately and get a handle on the feelings and all the stressors that they have now will lead to them becoming more productive members of society and they can be the best they can be,” said Mary Turk, a Torrey Pines parent. “I see a huge benefit and applaud you for having the wisdom to address this issue.”

FROM COPPO, A2 family. I am looking forward to reuniting with the best staff I have ever worked with, as well as the incredible students and families that make Torrey Pines a very special place. “Being a site principal is something I enjoy very much, and it is something I take very seriously. I am happy to be back in a position where I can work directly with students, staff, and families to achieve their goals. It is my hope, my goal, and my driving desire to positively impact students the way a TPHS teacher did for me when I was a student there. I have always been a Falcon, and I will always be a Falcon, and I can’t wait to back.” Coppo said, “I’m very familiar with the history and culture of TPHS, having worked with principals Jaffe and Killeen over a span of seven years. Even during my year away, I’ve been following the successes and changes at TPHS, and I am looking forward to helping guide the school into a new era. It’s a school full of hard working, spirited, intelligent and creative people. I feel truly honored and incredibly lucky to lead such an amazing school in an incredible district.” Coppo started in his new position on July 1, 2016. Visit www.sduhsd.net.

2016 Del Mar racing season offers something for everyone BY KELLEY CARLSON ummer racing at Del Mar once again promises to be a flashy affair, with big hats, colorful silks, musical stars, and the return of the popular racehorse “Chrome.” The 39-day season kicks off July 15 and runs through Labor Day, Sept. 5. “This year, there is especially something for everyone,” from family-oriented activities to food and drink events, music and a new discount program, said Chris Bahr, director of events and promotions. “Everything is back from past years, and we’re doing some experiments. We’re really happy how things have turned out for this year.” Among the highlights is the expected return of California Chrome. The 2014 Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes winner last appeared at the seaside oval almost two years ago, when he won the Grade I, $300,000 Hollywood Derby in his first try on the turf. In 2015, the chestnut horse spent much of his time overseas and took time off to recuperate from injuries, but he seems to be back to his winning ways this year. California Chrome won the Grade II, $200,500 San Pasqual Stakes in his seasonal debut, then traveled to Dubai, where he won the Grade I, $10 million Dubai World Cup, en route to becoming the richest racehorse in North American history. According to California Chrome’s connections, the next stop is the Grade II, $200,000 San Diego Handicap at Del Mar on July 23. If he does well, he could return in the Grade I, $1 million TVG Pacific Classic – and possibly face the champion filly Beholder – on Aug. 20. Bahr said that if all goes

California Chrome is expected to return to Del Mar this season. according to plan, the public will be able to watch California Chrome work out around 7:45 a.m. July 16, just before the start of Donuts Day at 8 a.m. California Chrome likely won’t be the only Kentucky Derby

winner on the grounds, however. This year’s victor, Nyquist, is expected to train at Del Mar, although his next start was undetermined as of press time. Center stage While much of the attention will

be focused on horses during the day, performers from a variety of genres will be in the spotlight on Friday and Saturday evenings. “Hands down, this is the best and most diverse lineup in our 20-year history (of concerts),” Bahr said. Rock band 311 and reggae vocalist Matisyahu are expected to be among the most popular acts, and they’re slated to take the stage on Aug. 13. There will be other reggae artists during the season, as well, including Ziggy Marley (July 30), Pepper (Aug. 26) and The Wailers (Sept. 2). The country music scene will be represented by Chris Young on Aug. 12, while Grammy Award winner Brian Setzer will rock the house on Aug. 6.

Tasting Room Del Mar offers craft beer, boutique wine BY KRISTINA HOUCK raft beer has finally come to Del Mar. Del Mar’s first brewery, Vigilante Brewing, is due to make its debut later this year, and much-anticipated beer-and-wine-centric Tasting Room Del Mar officially opened its doors last month. Spearheaded by father-son duo David and Evan Taylor, Tasting Room Del Mar strives to show customers how vines, hops and harvest are inextricably bound. “We look at ourselves as a three-legged stool,” said co-owner David Taylor. “We elevate each of those to the same level of creativity and high-quality product offering — and that’s craft beer, boutique wine and locally-sourced, farm-to-table food.” Located at the coastal city’s main intersection of Camino del Mar and 15th Street, Tasting Room Del Mar sets up shop in a roughly 2,600-square-foot space that was formerly occupied by Bruegger’s Bagel and Del Mar Flower Company. The former bagel shop and flower stand has been transformed into an indoor-outdoor space that features craft beer taps, a boutique wine list and menu of seasonally-inspired plates. With 55

Tasting Room Del Mar offers craft beer, boutique wine and locally-sourced, farm-to-table food. outdoor seats and 30 spots indoors, the tasting room offers Del Mar ocean views on the open-air patio, as well as coveted dining room seats that look into the kitchen.

The concept also includes a retail bottle shop selling wine and beer. “I think we bring more of a trendy concept to Del Mar,” Evan Taylor said about choosing the

location. “Del Mar is a sit-down, big plate restaurant place with nothing that’s really creating a unique, sustainable, small plate concept.”

Evan had long planned on launching a craft beer concept, while his father, a wine aficionado, had always dreamed of opening a wine bar. “I’ve been drinking wine and eating good for a long time,” said David, who recalled talking with friends about opening a wine bar in the Bay Area more than 20 years ago. “It was time to see about executing on that old idea.” A former Rancho Santa Fe resident, David’s career as an entrepreneur in high-tech start-up companies has spanned more than 30 years in Silicon Valley and San Diego. Most notably, he was the co-founder and CEO of CineForm, a developer of video compression and workflow technology for the professional film and television industry, which was acquired by GoPro in 2011. Evan, who grew up in Rancho Santa Fe and currently lives in La Jolla, has been deeply entrenched in the restaurant and hotel industries of San Diego. At 15, Evan got his start at Dairy Queen before furthering his career with positions at Morgan Run Club & Resort, Red Robin Gourmet Burgers and Brews, and Einstein Bros. Bagels, and accelerating into management with the opening of SEE BEER, B14

NORTH COAST - JULY 7, 2016 - PAGE B3

Whole lotta shakin’ in musical revue at North Coast Rep BY DIANA SAENGER he foot-stomping, roof-raising “Ain’t Misbehavin – The Fats Waller Musical Show,” opens at the North Coast Repertory Theatre, July 13. It’s an award-winning musical tribute to the black musicians of the 1920s and ‘30s. Conceived by Richard Maltby, Jr., and Murray Horwitz, this production is directed by actress, singer, painter, producer and director Yvette Freeman (“Gee’s Bend,” NCRT and TV’s “ER,” “Orange is the New Black”), who has worked with NCRT Artistic Director David Ellenstein for many years. “I’m very excited about this play,” Freeman said. “I ended up in ‘Ain’t Misbehavin’’on Broadway and went on to star in stage productions with national and international companies. Theater is in my bones and I can still sing, but older now, I don’t do the dancing. I think younger people should be performing these shows and older people like me directing and sharing what we know about the business with the next generation.” Based on the signature Fats Waller song, the musical returns audiences to the glory days of the Harlem Renaissance when the Cotton Club and Savoy Ballroom served as playgrounds for high society. Freeman said part of the show’s success is Julia Lehman’s choreography.

La Jolla Cultural Partners

“Julia is an assistant to Arthur Faria, who created the original staging and choreography for the 1978 Tony Award-winning musical ‘Ain’t Misbehavin’,” she said. He received both the Tony and Drama Desk award nominations, and shared the Obie for the original production at the Manhattan Theatre Club. He recreated his work for the 10th anniversary Broadway revival starring the original cast. Faria will be at the show, as will Horwitz and some of the other contributors. Freeman said she is also happy to work with her husband, music director Lanny Hartley. He studied music education at Indiana University and became an accomplished pianist, composer, director and teacher, garnering many awards. It was when he collaborated with Freeman on “Dinah Was” that they fell in love and got married. “This music never seems to be dated because it’s so enjoyable. Why would I continue to work on something if it didn’t inspire people, as it does, from generation to generation? If you’re of the age of the songs, you remember where you were when they came out. If you are younger, you’ll hear words of poetry. Each song tells the story, and this is also the story of Fat Waller’s life. The story goes back to things in the old

She boasted about the “wonderful” all-local cast, which she said she was glad to choose with Ellenstein’s help. “For 20 or 30 years or more, this show has made people happy. They have fun and just love it, so that’s what we

expect for audiences here, as well,” Freeman said. ■ IF YOU GO: “Ain’t Misbehavin’ — The Fats Waller Musical Show,” runs July 13-Aug. 7 at North Coast Repertory Theatre, 987 Lomas Santa Fe Drive, Solana Beach. Tickets from $39. (858) 481-1055. northcoastrep.org

ot all salads are created equal. While some are skimpy heaps of rabbit greens, others are bountiful, beautiful offerings, substantial enough for the main event for lunches or dinners. Here are some classics amped up with hearty, lean proteins and crunchy, sweet and savory goodies to kick off the summer season. Hail Caesar: America’s beloved Caesar salad, popularly prepared tableside at upscale eateries is actually the serendipitous creation of Italian born Caesar Cardini at his Tijuana restaurant in 1924. According to his daughter Rosa, her father whipped up the concoction to feed his famished friends who visited his establishment after a July 4th flurry of patrons left a shortage in the kitchen. He tossed the remaining ingredients, including Romaine leaves, croutons, Parmesan cheese, olive oil, lemon and coddled eggs (boiled in the shell gently for one minute) at his guests’ table for culinary showmanship. Today the eggs are usually omitted in the preparation of a Caesar salad to prevent foodborne illnesses. To transform this classic into a full-on meal, top with a grilled chicken breast. An occasional seafood Caesar with wild caught jumbo shrimps or lobster can be an enjoyable change-up. That’s Greek to Me: The original rustic Greek salad called horiatiki, which translates to “peasant salad” is a blend of Kalamata olives, tomatoes, feta cheese, cucumbers and onions dressed in an herb-infused olive oil. The American version adds chopped lettuce leaves, bell pepper rings, and caper berries in a red wine vinaigrette. Add grilled Alaskan halibut, deep-sea scallops, or a lemon garlic-marinated chicken breast to create an abundant plate. So Nice: The traditional Salade Nicoise from Nice is a Mediterranean treat showcasing fresh market produce, and herbs and spices from the Cote d’Azur. While there are regional variations, a popular version blends butter lettuce with fingerling potatoes, French green beans, black olives, ripe tomatoes, hard-boiled eggs, and a grilled tuna fillet dressed in a mustard vinaigrette. While tuna is typically high in mercury, you can swap it out for safer fish like wild caught salmon, herring, sardines or anchovies. A Yen for Asian: Toss some protein-rich buckwheat or soba noodles with edamame, shredded cucumber, and daikon radish in a sesame soy dressing for a light yet satisfying Japanese salad. For carnivorous cravings add teriyaki flat iron or skirt steak strips (grass-fed and organic, where possible). Best Thing Since Sliced Bread: The Panzanella from Tuscany transforms stale bread into a delightful summer salad by blending cubes of unsalted Italian bread soaked in olive oil and balsamic vinegar with tomatoes, fresh basil, red onions, and cucumbers. Or dial up this classic with chunks of Parmesan cheese or buffalo mozzarella, capers, olives and choice seafood from crab claws to calamari. Can’t Top That: For an extra crunch and

The Kitchen Shrink’s Salmon Cobb Salad ■ Ingredients: • 1 head Romaine lettuce (cut into strips) • 1 head watercress, torn into bite-size pieces • 1 pound grilled wild, skinless salmon, crumbled (marinated in virgin olive oil, lemon juice and desired spices) • 1/4 pound cooked turkey bacon, crumbled • 1 vine-ripened tomato, diced • 1 avocado, diced • 3 hard-boiled eggs, sliced • 1/4 pound goat cheese, crumbled • 1/2 red onion, diced • 1/4 cup vinaigrette dressing ■ The dressing: • 1/4 cup vinegar (champagne, red wine or balsamic) • 2/3 cup extra virgin olive oil • 2 teaspoons spicy mustard ■ Method: Blend vinegar with mustard, oil and seasonings. Toss with lettuces and goat cheese. Place mixture on a large platter. Decorate with remaining ingredients, making mounds or strips across the greens. — For additional recipes, e-mail kitchenshrink@san.rr.com

dose of protein, add a handful of roasted walnuts, pecans or almonds to assorted salads; for sweet notes and an oomph of Vitamin C toss in some grilled peach slices, pineapple spears, mango chunks or fresh figs; and for finishing touches sprinkle sesame or pumpkin seeds along with dried cherries or cranberries on top. More the Berrier: In honor of the recent Berry Good Food Foundation’s annual summer soiree at the jaw-dropping La Jolla estate of founder Michelle Lerach, where a group of dedicated food activists, goat breeders, organic farmers and chefs, restaurateurs and purveyors rubbed elbows and broke bread together—add some antioxidant-rich berries of all varieties to your summer salads. Cobb Up: The traditional Cobb salad created in 1926 by Bob Cobb, owner of the legendary Brown Derby in Los Angeles who threw in everything but the kitchen sink – leftover avocados, tomatoes, chicken, bacon, onions, Romaine lettuce, hard-boiled eggs and blue cheese arranged meticulously on a plate. You can tweak this classic and substitute grilled salmon for the turkey or chicken, turkey bacon for oink bacon, crumbled goat cheese instead of the Roquefort, and an olive oil vinaigrette rather than the blue cheese dressing.

Del Mar’s ‘Remy’ Weinger opens her first art gallery in La Jolla BY KELLEY CARLSON ith several entrepreneurs in her family tree, it’s only natural that Remington “Remy” Weinger would be inspired to branch out with her own business. The 24-year-old artist recently opened her first gallery in La Jolla, which showcases her colorful paintings and fine art photography. Weinger has some strong role models to look up to when it comes to succeeding as a business owner, including her grandmother, weight-loss, weight management and nutrition company founder Jenny Craig of Del Mar. “Being an entrepreneur, she (Craig) gave me motivation to be successful,” said Weinger, who lives in Del Mar and Rancho Santa Fe. “She said to do what you love, and that things have a way of working out.” “Remy reminds me of myself at 24 years old,” Craig said. “I, like Remy, was never afraid to risk failure when success depended on my own efforts and willingness to do whatever it takes to achieve it. While growing up after the Great Depression at a time when most women spent their time in the kitchen, I had dreams of creating my own business, going out in the world and ‘making it.’ Remy is fiercely independent and secure in her judgment in much the same way as I.” Weinger’s artistic path began at a young age, while growing up in Rancho Santa Fe. “Ever since I could hold a paintbrush,

creating art, my parents (Duayne and Michelle Weinger of Rancho Santa Fe) always encouraged me,” she said. But it was during her first photography class at Francis Parker School, when she was a seventh-grader, that it “clicked,” she said. “In painting, you use a lot of water with acrylics,” Weinger explained. “There’s something satisfying about the liquid process … watching (images) appear.” Weinger graduated from Parker in 2010, and attended various schools that allowed her to work in different mediums and gain experience, which included The Art Institute of Chicago, New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts and San Francisco Art Institute. She received a bachelor of fine arts degree from the University of San Diego in February 2015. After college graduation, Weinger worked for interior designer Brittney Pearson of Rancho Santa Fe. One of her jobs was to create a commissioned 5-foot painting for a client’s living room. “I enjoyed it so much, that was my ‘a-ha’ moment, that I could do it for a living,” Weinger said. She started focusing on creating art on a large scale, which she said “made a huge difference.” But because Weinger was working out of her garage, she quickly began running out of space, and the paintings started piling up. Weinger also realized that artwork doesn’t translate through social media in the same way as it does when being viewed in person, so she began looking for empty spaces to establish

She noted that the Village has a significant number of art galleries, there’s a sense of community among the artists, and it’s a destination location for people from all over the world. “It’s been great — I’m getting so much feedback,” Weinger said. Currently, she sells paintings and photographs, but said that eventually she

would like to expand to include mediums such as installations and sculptures. Most of Weinger’s photography is captured on film, although she occasionally works in the digital format, and the pictures are a range of subjects — everything from street and portrait to animals, landscape and food. Weinger said she loves “accidents” such as light leaks and dust spots, and often incorporates them into her work. Weinger also embraces “mistakes” in her paintings, creating around drips and splatters. She is best known for her colorful works, but also uses pastels and black-and-white. Much of Weinger’s painting is done in her gallery space, and passers-by will often see her working next to the window, as she pulls nine-hour days on a daily basis. Her most recent works have been inspired by her photographs and memories of her experiences, and it’s not unusual to see her working on six or seven paintings at one time. Craig praised her granddaughter for her work ethic. “I’ve learned over the years that talent alone won’t necessarily result in material success,” Craig said. “I’m sure most of us know people who are very talented in their skills, but could not turn that into a successful career. It takes hard work, determination and passion to succeed, and the willingness to do whatever is required — things like working long hours and SEE WEINGER, B14

COURTESY

Laughing Pony Rescue, Inc. celebrated the Fourth of July with military donkey ‘Dynamite’ In honor of Independence Day, most Americans celebrated with barbecues, parades, music, American flags and firecrackers. But Laughing Pony Rescue, Inc. (LPR) celebrated with the newest member of the family, a very special military donkey named Dynamite. Dynamite served in the U.S. Military at Fort Irwin, Calif., where he was used to transport dynamite into places the military jeeps and cars could not go. Dynamite completed his service in the military honorably and now it is time for him to retire. Dynamite came to the ranch in terrific health, was well trained and overall a happy donkey. Dynamite spends his days being overly adored and celebrated by the LPR community as his gentle and sweet disposition has won over many hearts. Dynamite will enjoy the ranch until he is

adopted to a loving and committed home although it is a known fact that all the volunteers prefer he become a permanent resident. More information on Dynamite and how you can support and sponsor him can be found on the LPR Inc. website under “meet the ponies.” Although Dynamite has had an easy transition to Laughing Pony Rescue, unfortunately most stories don’t go as smoothly. Laughing Pony Rescue, Inc. is a non-profit organization dedicated to the rescue and rehabilitation of unwanted and abused horses of all breeds. To find out more about how you can help support and sponsor Dynamite or any other horses rescued by Laughing Pony Recue, Inc., please visit www.laughingponyrescue.com .

FROM BEER, B2 Que Pasa Mexican Grill in San Diego in 2011. After serving as the general manager of the restaurant for three and a half years, he went on to work as the operations manager of Chula Vista-based Agave Coffee & Café. Combining their concepts, the two teamed up to create Tasting Room Del Mar, offering more than 120 wine labels and close to 50 beer varieties. The restaurant and bar opened its doors on June 3. “We thought, ‘Why don’t we roll these together,” explained David, who currently lives just east of Rancho Santa Fe in Santaluz. “In rolling them together, maybe we can do something that’s a bit unique that people haven’t really done before.” Tasting Room Del Mar features 28 rotating craft beer taps, supporting local San Diego breweries as well as highlighting other brewers throughout California, across the United States and around the world. The California-centric wine list also changes with the seasons and includes a strong international focus from wine regions in France, Germany and Spain. In addition to beer and wine, the Del Mar spot offers cold brew coffee, kombucha, cider and mead. Tasting Room Del Mar is also equipped with a temperature-controlled cellar,

stocked with about 1,300 bottles of wine and 400 bottles of beer available for sale, including bottles from Cordant Winery, David’s winery in Paso Robles. “Most places that do beer or wine usually don’t do the other one very well. Their focus is one or the other,” David said. “We’re doing both and we pride ourselves on both our beer list and our wine list — and on our food.” Headed by Executive Chef Steven Lona, Chef de Cuisine Jenny Goycochea and Wine Director Rusti Gilbert, Tasting Room Del Mar’s staff is always on hand to help educate customers and provide pairing suggestions. “It’s about having amazing products, but also having the staff that knows about those products, how to pair those products together to enhance the customer experience,” David said. Lona, who hails from Los Angeles, said the restaurant’s menu is focused on sourcing, with all ingredients coming from a 300-mile radius. The carefully crafted menu will rotate every five or six weeks to complement Tasting Room Del Mar’s continuously revolving beer and wine offerings. “It’s a combination of sourcing, creativity, flavor profiles and plating,” David said. “We focused on taste of food rather than full entrée portions,” Lona added. “We wanted to really

reinforce the idea of tasting, kind of in line with the rest of the concept, and we wanted to maintain a focus on modern cooking but drawing from local harvest.” The 14-dish menu includes savory and sweet treats. Some of the most popular small plates include the cheese plate, lamb belly and pork. Customers can also choose a surprise menu. Tasting Room Del Mar’s “Surrender Series” features a three-, five- or seven-course surprise tasting menu. “With the ‘Surrender Series,’ we get to introduce people to some new things," David said. “Our goal is to provide consistency in experience, but not necessarily rigid consistency in menu presentation,” Lona added. “It’s the same place and it’s the same really welcoming environment, but things just change. It’s a great environment to be in because what’s going to happen today will be different tomorrow.” Tasting Room Del Mar is located at 1435 Camino del Mar, Suite D, in Del Mar. The beer, wine and food concept is closed Mondays and open 5-10 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday, 11:30 a.m. to 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday, and 11:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sunday. For more about Tasting Room Del Mar, call 858-461-0124 or visit www.tastingroomdelmar.com.

Michelle Weinger, Remy Weinger and Jenny Craig FROM WEINGER, B5 sometimes being willing to pass up invitations for fun events with friends, or not spending hours texting or on phone calls. Remy keeps her mission in view, and as I heard my dad say many times, ‘She keeps her nose to the grindstone.’ I am very proud of what Remy has accomplished, and perhaps the thing I am most proud of is the woman she has grown to be: a woman of character. That’s the way she conducts her business, with hard work, honesty, passion and dependability. All that coupled with natural talent is the best recipe I know for success. “Because of the times in which

COURTESY

I grew, opportunities were few. I am so happy that young people like Remy who are willing to work hard, focus and not quit until their end goal is achieved, have the opportunity for inordinate success in their endeavors. She is the granddaughter most grandmothers wish for. I am so proud that she’s mine.” Weinger hopes that her hard work pays off, as her goal is to sell her works worldwide. The Rmington Weinger Art Gallery is open from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. For more information, go to remingtonweiner.com.

Spring Maintenance Tips to Get Your Vehicle Up to 100% ahead of El Niño Every year it’s a good idea to incorporate maintenance on your vehicle as part of your general spring cleaning procedure. Potholes, frost heaves, and cold temperatures can all put your brakes, suspension, tires, and battery to the test. You should always make a point to analyze your vehicle at least once a year to make sure that it’s running in

top condition. Doing so can help you avoid a serious issue or being involved in a San Diego car accident. Use the following tips to stay on top of your vehicle’s maintenance this spring. No one wants to be caught in the heavy El Niño rains with an improperly maintained vehicle! Tire Pressure Make sure all your tires have been properly inflated and balanced. This little step goes a long way not just towards minimizing the chances of a flat tire, but it can also improve your gas mileage, too. Brakes Anytime the weather dips, it’s a good idea to look at your brake fluid, parking brake, hoses, and lines. Brake pad changes and a total inspection of the brake system can go a long way

towards helping you avoid accidents and serious issues this spring. In heavy rains, you rely on breaks in great shape to help you come to a stop quickly, even on slick surfaces, so don’t skip over this step. Plugs, Wires and Batteries These components of your vehicle have to work extra hard when it’s cold outside. Make sure you replace old or weak wires, plugs and batteries. Anything over three years old should be replaced completely. Wheel Alignment and Suspension Determine any leaks or wear on your shocks and struts before heading out on the road this spring and summer. Fluid Levels Don’t ignore your engine oil, brake

fluid, transmission fluid, anti-freeze or windshield washer fluid. The brake fluid flush can also be beneficial. Engine Filter When you’re getting your oil change, ask that the engineer filter be looked at carefully to determine whether it needs to be replaced. Hoses and Belts If your hoses are cracked, worn, soft, blistered or brittle, you should replace them. Anything over five years should be replaced even if it looks like it’s in relatively good condition. And finally, make sure you turn on those headlights in heavy rain! For additional tips, advice or legal help, contact us at 858-5512090 or visit our website at https:// seriousaccidents.com/.

PET OF THE WEEK

BETTY BOOP,a 3-year-

old Domestic Short Hair, is looking for a loving home. This beautiful little girl was found as a stray and brought into our care by a Good Samaritan. While in her ﬁnder’s home, we learned that she is a very sweet, mellow cat who enjoys the company of her humans and other cats. She was very fearful of the small dog in the home, so we recommend she go home with a family without any dogs. Since entering our care, Betty Boop has been friendly with everyone she meets, and can be quite affectionate with those she knows best. Betty Boop is available for adoption at San Diego Humane

FROM RACES, B1 Corporation (Aug. 19) and Chromeo (Sept. 3). Alt-rock band Cold War Kids, whose songs include the hit “First,” will entertain fans on July 22, while returning indie pop group Fitz and the Tantrums will perform their soul-influenced tunes on July 29. The concerts will be held in the Seaside Stage area and are free with racetrack admission; however, the cost goes up to $20 for those who enter after the last race. The performances are restricted to attendees ages 18 and older. Each Friday, the track will host a weekly pre-concert party at its Cabana tent just outside the concert area. Radio station 91X will be broadcasting from the tent, and a warm-up band will provide live entertainment. Fan fare Food-centric affairs have proven to be a big hit at the seaside oval, and in 2016, there will be more than ever before. The first one for foodies is the Del Mar BBQ State Championship, set for July 17. More than 50 chefs will compete for cash prizes, and people will be able to buy four, 2-ounce “competition-ready” samples of chicken, brisket, ribs, pork and steak for $10. Next will be a combination of two favorite events from past years – the San Diego Craft Beer Fest and Gourmet Food Truck Festival, to be held July 23. More than 40 food trucks and 100 local and international varieties of brews are expected to be on site. To save 15 percent, patrons can buy Beer Fest wristbands – good for five, 7-ounce samples plus racetrack admission – for $22 through July 17, at www.dmtc.com. The wristband will be $20 after that date and not include track entry. The Western Chili Cookoff will also be back again this season, on Aug. 6. Guests can receive free samples from the cooks throughout the day and vote for their top choices, then meander to the Classic Car Show. About 20 vehicles will be on display, including the world’s most famous unrestored woodie. New to the Del Mar scene is Tacotopia, in which attendees will help

FROM HATS, B1 inside the Stretch Run admission gates. They can enter in the categories of Most Glamorous, Best Racing Theme, Funniest/Most Outrageous, Best Fascinator and Flowers/All Other. The winners of each category will receive $300, along with a Studio Savvy gift basket valued at $250. Second place will net $200, and third place will get $100. The grand prize winner will be rewarded with a one-night stay at the Fairmont Grand Del Mar and a meal for two at Addison Restaurant, valued at more than $1,000. Meanwhile, all participants will receive two free admission passes to return to the races. Those who are looking for “The

determine the top taco in Southern California and Tijuana on Aug. 13. The cost is $25 per person and $20 per child (ages 3 to 10), which covers unlimited tacos from more than 40 vendors and racetrack admission. Another event making its debut is the Pizza & Beer Festival on Aug. 20. Mobile vendors will be on site to serve a variety of pies that can be paired with more than 100 craft brews. Visitors can buy five, 7-ounce brews for $20, or purchase full-size beers. During the meet’s final weekend, on Sept. 3, there’s Spirits & Sliders, featuring more than 20 cocktails and spirits, a cigar lounge and live music. Patrons can buy 10-tab wristbands for $20; 5-ounce cocktails are 2 tabs, and quarter-ounce spirits are one tab. Finally, there’s the Taste of the Turf Club every Sunday, beginning July 24. The $150-per-person fee includes Turf Club seating and admission, a choice of appetizer, entrée, dessert, and bottomless mimosas or bloody Marys. Going for the giveaways The track will hold several giveaway promotions this summer. Kids ages 12 and younger will be able to take home 9-inch Webkinz plush horses on July 17, as part of the “super-sized” Family Fun Day in the infield. On Aug. 27, men and women will be able to walk away with Cobian Aqua Jump sandals that feature a custom Del Mar logo. Finally, on Closing Day, Sept. 5, Diamond Club members will receive free canvas bags. Familiar favorites Quite a few activities will be returning, from Daybreak at Del Mar on weekends (morning workouts and breakfast) to the daily Newcomers’ Seminars that offer free handicapping tips and selections. Race fans can meet their favorite athletes at Jockey Photo Day, from noon to 1 p.m. July 16, and enjoy free coffee and confections during question-and-answer sessions with riders and trainers during Donuts Days, from 8 to 10 a.m. July 16 and Aug. 13. Also, free family activities such as pony rides, inflatable obstacles, face painters and a magic show will be held every weekend in the infield. People who aspire to own racehorses can attend the annual Paddock Sale, which will begin after the last race on July 23. About 30 to 40 “race-ready”

equines will be offered. Potential new owners are encouraged to attend a seminar that morning; RSVP at (626) 574-6620 or www.toconline.com. Those who prefer to spend their money placing bets can participate in the 13th annual Handicapping Challenge on July 23-24, which offers $300,000 in prizes. There is a $7,000 buy-in, with $5,000 designated for a live bankroll and $2,000 toward the prize pool. For more information, contact Bahr at chris@dmtc.com. Del Mar discounts As in the past, Del Mar will continue to offer reduced prices on admission, through Diamond Club promotions (signup is free), season passes and books of parking tickets. But this summer, there will also be deals on food and beverages. “We surveyed our fans, we did focus groups, and we had personal contacts, and they primarily pointed us toward wanting lower prices during a day at the races,” said Craig Dado, Del Mar’s chief marketing officer. “So we’re doing it. We’re offering discounts on all fronts – food and beverage especially, along with other price values for all.” The “50% Bonus” program allows visitors to buy $30 worth of script for $20 each day they are at the races. The script – distributed in $10 chits – can be used for both food and beverage anywhere at the track, and throughout the season. To be eligible, guests must be Diamond Club members and be on their third visit to the track. Also, during “Happy Hour(s) Fridays,” from 2 to 6 p.m. every Friday (except Opening Day, July 15), patrons will be able to buy the track’s signature cocktails for half price. Sunny outlook Track President Joe Harper has positive predictions heading into Del Mar’s 77th season. “We had some circumstances go against us last year, but I see better times ahead,” he said. “We’re opening for the first time on a Friday in forever, and I think that will kick off a terrific starter weekend. We’ve got great racing lined up once more, and a ton of additional events and happenings set to go. You can’t beat a summer at Del Mar, and I can just feel that this one is going to be a winner.”

Party” can head to the Seaside Cabana, and this year, it has been expanded with new partners and activities, Bahr said. For $30 — which includes Stretch Run admission and special access to the event — revelers can enjoy perks such as a dance floor and games tent, gourmet food trucks, a beer garden, prize giveaways, jumbo video boards, and the Red Bull Tour Bus with some of the top DJs in the industry. Other traditional events will be back, as well. The Morgan Lee Band, a country act, will perform the national anthem, and a person or group will “Sing With Bing” before the sixth race. Kids who attend Camp Del Mar — which provides activities for 5- to 12-year-olds all day, for $24 per child — will bounce down the homestretch

on inflatable balls in the Hippity Hop Derby, after the fourth race. Making its debut this year is the Horseshoe Pitch, which will be held on the track near the winners circle. Randomly selected fans will toss oversized horseshoes at a stake, and have an opportunity to win prizes such as restaurant gift certificates. The pitch will be a regular occurrence at the seaside oval during the season. Once more, the feature race on the day’s card will be the $100,000 Oceanside Stakes for 3-year-olds on the turf. It’s often used as a prep for the track’s sophomore championship, the Grade II, $250,000 Del Mar Derby, which is set for Sept. 4. First post on Opening Day is 2 p.m.; admission is $10 for Stretch Run and $20 for Clubhouse.
