Council OKs climate change resolution BY BRITTANY WOOLSEY The Encinitas City Council voted 4 to 1 on March 22 in favor of supporting a national revenue-neutral Carbon Fee and Dividend (CFD) program to help offset the harmful effects of carbon emissions through a financial incentive. Under the CFD program, fees would be applied to all sources of carbon emissions, and the fees collected would be returned to taxpayers as rebates, said city Environmental Commissioner Jim Wang. The goal is to create a financial incentive to reduce carbon emissions, according to a city document.

Encinitas follows Del Mar as the second city in San Diego County to approve a CFD program. Encinitas is also working on an update of its Climate Action Plan, which should be ready for city council consideration in June. Wang urged the council to support the CFD program. “The costs of CO2 are not entirely paid for at the pump,” he said. “This is a way of trying to reduce the carbon emissions.” Many residents also supported the program. Resident Harold Standifer said climate change is one of the most urgent issues facing people today. “[This program] is a proven way

to incentivize widespread movement toward use of renewable energy and utilization to reduce our carbon emissions to help the environment,” he said. “I feel we should all feel a sense of urgency to act now in any way we can to reverse the dangerous course that we are currently on.” Council member Mark Muir, who dissented, said he could not support the motion immediately until he better understood carbon pricing, including the tax fees, but would meet with proponents to learn more. “When I get into something, I need to understand it completely to SEE CLIMATE, A18

BY BRITTANY WOOLSEY Encinitas Mayor Catherine Blakespear forecasted the city’s present as “clear and beautiful” and the future as “bright” in a State of the City address on March 28 at the Encinitas Community and Senior Center. After being introduced by her two children, Blakespear detailed city finances, public safety and housing, among other topics. “By all objective and subjective measures, the state of our city is strong,” Blakespear said at the sold-out event attended by about 250 city officials, businesspeople and residents and hosted by the Chamber of Commerce. “Objective numbers show that we have low crime and high property values. We are fiscally sound and responsible, and boast high-quality public amenities and community gathering places.” The biggest challenge facing the city, she said, is developing a state-compliant housing element for Encinitas. Measure T, the city’s last attempt, failed in the November election. Since then, the city council developed a subcommittee — comprised of Blakespear, Deputy Mayor Tony Kranz, No on T spokesman Bruce Ehlers and former Planning Commissioner Kurt Groseclose — to strategize a plan that would be both law-compliant and please residents. The group is trying to create a plan that stays within two stories, with a goal of achieving more affordable housing, the mayor said. To help meet that target, the city is considering tiny houses and accessory units, she said. “The question will come down to whether it’s possible to achieve the state requirements and meet the needs of the stakeholders,” she said. “We’re working as diligently as possible to do SEE ADDRESS, A18

Encinitas looking to buy more open space BY BARBARA HENRY Encinitas wants to buy more land to set aside as open space, and finding such properties should be a top priority in the coming year for the city’s Parks & Recreation Commission, the City Council decided last week. Over the next several months, the commission will create a list of properties, assess what they

might cost and then evaluate the city’s funding options, the council said March 22. How the city would pay for the land is still unclear. There’s been talk of setting aside $200,000 for open-space purchases in the city’s next budget cycle — but that’s a tiny amount compared to what real estate costs in a coastal town. The city’s money would need to be matched with

other sources of funding, the council said. Encinitas already owns just under 116 acres of open space, split among eight properties. By far the largest of those properties is the 56-acre Indian Head Canyon area on Quail Hollow Drive off Saxony Road. However, city-owned parcels account for only a SEE LAND, A18

Transgender woman alleges discrimination by some Belly Up staff members BY JOE TASH A transgender woman says she was shocked and embarrassed last week when she came out of the women’s restroom during a concert at the Belly Up Tavern, and a venue employee admonished her that she had to use the bathroom corresponding with the gender on her driver’s license. “It was like public shaming for me,” said Nataliya Holmes, 46, of Imperial Beach, who was at the music venue in Solana Beach to see a performance of the group Vaud and the Villains, on Thursday, March 23. “When that occurs in society it affects all of us. None of us want to live in a society where people are treated discriminatorily.” Holmes said she then asked to speak

to the manager, whom she identified as Jeff Keeping, who affirmed what the staff member had told her. Kevin Kish, director of the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH), which enforces state anti-discrimination laws, said that if the exchange happened in the way Holmes described, “it’s a very clear, straightforward violation of state law. There’s really no ambiguity at all.” In California, said Kish, the Unruh Civil Rights Act prohibits discrimination in public accommodations, which includes businesses, and the categories of protected characteristics include gender identity and gender expression, as well as race, religion, sex, disability, ancestry, age, marital status or sexual

orientation. “Nothing in the law says that a person has to use the bathroom based on their driver’s license, so requiring it is a straightforward violation. You don’t have to look a certain way or dress a certain way. The driver’s license is frankly irrelevant,” Kish said. Keeping, the Belly Up’s general manager, did not grant an interview or answer specific questions regarding Holmes’ account of the incident. However, in response to a reporter’s email inquiry, he wrote, “Anyone who knows the Belly Up Tavern is aware of our commitment to the community. In our Venue we are conscience (sic) of the security, safety and rights of all of our patrons and we act accordingly.” SEE TRANSGENDER, A17

Olivenhain Municipal Water District to be honored Olivenhain Municipal Water District staff notified the Board of Directors at its March 29 meeting that it will receive the “District of Distinction” accreditation by the Special District Leadership Foundation at the California Special Districts Association conference in September.

accreditation. OMWD was the first water district in San Diego County to achieve this accreditation, and remains one of only 32 other agencies designated as a District of Distinction.

BY BRITTANY WOOLSEY A Capri Elementary School parent is accused of slashing another parent’s face with a broken bottle at a fundraiser for the school over the weekend. The alleged incident occurred on March 25 at the Hilton Del Mar, where the Encinitas school’s PTA was hosting its Run for the Roses Spring Auction Gala. What was advertised as a “fun evening out with other Capri Families” turned violent when a fight allegedly broke out between the two fathers. “There was a dispute between two parties,” said Officer Billy Hernandez of the San Diego Police Department, which is handling the case. “During the dispute, the victim was struck in the face with a glass.” Paul Pfingst, the suspect’s attorney, said his client was provoked when the victim insulted the client’s wife. “His wife was subjected to intolerable insults and that was what caused this whole sorry event to take place,” Pfingst

Officers responded to Scripps Memorial Hospital Encinitas at about 9 p.m., where they contacted the victim and took a statement, Hernandez said. The man received stitches and was released, Hernandez said. Officers later arrested the suspect, Chad Fuller, at his home on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon, Hernandez said.

Pastor Troy Martin, left, and his wife, Jessica Martin, pose in front of the new home of Venture Church.

Church ‘ventures’ to its own building BY BRITTANY WOOLSEY When Troy Martin moved with his family from the Bay Area to Encinitas in 2012, he had the goal of opening up his own church. Now, his dream is ready to come to fruition. Martin, who took up a job as a basketball coach at San Dieguito Academy, founded Venture Church in Encinitas — first in his home, then at the Encinitas Community and Senior Center — shortly after his family’s move to the area. Martin serves as lead pastor. On April 9, the church will finally open a location of its own at 777 Santa Fe Drive. “We felt like God was leading us to open our own church,” said Martin, who has worked as a pastor for more than 20 years. “When we were getting ready to decide on Encinitas is when I had applied for the coaching job at the high school. That came right at our decision-making time. We figured this is where we were supposed to be. And now, years later, our church is moving into the building right across the street from the high school. It’s all kind of full circle.” At first, the church spread by word of mouth and held services in Martin’s living room with about 30 people. But as membership grew, the services were moved to another member’s house, before eventually settling into the community center in September 2013. “That’s where we really started to grow,” Martin said, adding that the church would meet at the center for two services each Sunday. “We went from 30 or 40 people to 70 or 80.” In March 2014, the church hosted its grand opening to the community. Up until that point, the church was “growing its core,” the pastor said. Now, on Sunday mornings, Venture Church averages between 300 and 350 members. The church’s demographic is multi-generational, with an emphasis on families, Martin said. Youth groups and “kid ministries” are

available to children and teens throughout the week. The church is also planning a trip for 40 people to Mexico in April to build two homes, Martin said. Venture Church’s first service at its new location will take place at 10 a.m. on April 9. The church is planning for future Sunday services at 9 a.m. and 10:45 a.m., Martin said. The pastor said he’s excited to share the church with more people in the area through the new building, which holds about 400 people and formerly housed another church. “It’s been a fun journey,” he said. “Seeing people come to life in their relationship with God and wanting to be authentic is just our whole mission. Our heart of the church is we want to be a blessing to the community here in Encinitas, San Diego and, really, around the world. We just want to be a place where people can be mobilized to serve.” For more information about the church, visit www.venturechurch.tv.

Children learned safety rules of handling farm animals at U.K.Equestrian at Rancho Cielo in Rancho Santa Fe.

Children hold animals at Pammy’s Pony Party and Petting Zoo.

‘Pammy’s Pony Parties and Petting Zoo’ enhances love of animals BY KAREN BILLING Pamela Kramer-Glickman is never happier or more at peace than when she is around her animals — and she is around her animals a lot. There’s her “handsome” quarter-horse Stanley, her Palomino pony Daisy, her Suffolk sheep Julian, Gittel the pygmy goat, her chickens she absolutely adores, and Marla, the pig, who sits under her desk while she’s working at home, warming her toes. These animals and more make up “Pammy’s Pony Parties and Petting Zoo,” which is partially housed at U.K. Equestrian at Rancho Cielo in Rancho Santa Fe. Her parties and petting zoo go on the road while riding lessons and an upcoming summer camp will be held at

Rancho Cielo. “I encourage children especially to be around a horse ranch, they learn so much more than just riding,” Kramer-Glickman said. “They learn compassion for animals and it builds their self-esteem. They learn discipline, accountability and responsibilities. They learn to love and trust an animal as a friend. They have a sense of family and camaraderie with other riders. Age makes no difference.” The ranch was previously owned by Ginger Hill and was called Rancho East. Kramer-Glickman said she was lucky that Hill welcomed her in with her quarter-horse Stanley, her Palomino pony Daisy and her sheep and goat.

“To find a ranch that would let you bring in a baa-ing sheep and goat was unheard of it, as it might scare the horses. Ginger's attitude was it’s just another farm animal. The horses will learn and adjust,” Kramer-Glickman said. In September 2016, Graeme Dixon purchased the 11-acre ranch and renamed it Rancho Cielo — it is now home to about 85 horses in a newly spruced-up facility and barns. Kramer-Glickman was grateful that he allowed her sheep and goats to stay on, sharing the feeling that children could learn a lot from visiting with the animals. “He had a vision of wanting lots of children and grown-ups to learn to ride. He enjoys the sound of the children and the pure joy and

happiness it brings to the ranch,” Kramer-Glickman said. Through the ranch’s business U.K. Equestrian, children can start beginning lessons with trainers Dixon and Shayna Gale and continue to ride either for pleasure or to go on to compete in local shows. Kramer-Glickman has taught horseback riding to children for over 40 years, beginning in her native Canada. She also worked as a veterinary assistant and is an insured horseback riding instructor, camp director and teacher. She has always loved animals and moved to California from Montreal nearly 30 years ago with her childhood horse and her filly. The SEE ZOO, A18

KAABOO 2017 lineup revealed

Tom Petty, Muse, Jane’s Addiction, Pink, Alanis Morissette and more BY GEORGE VARGA KAABOO Del Mar did not lack for star power in 2015 and 2016, when the ambitious new festival’s expansive lineup featured No Doubt, The Chainsmokers The Killers, Cheech & Chong, Aerosmith and Jimmy Buffett. Even so, KAABOO is hoping to up the ante when the upscale music, comedy and gourmet food-and-drink extravaganza returns this fall. The all-ages festival’s third edition at the Del Mar Racetrack and adjacent fairgrounds will be held Sept. 15-17. The list of this year’s confirmed performers includes Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Pink, Muse, Weezer, Jane’s Addiction, David Guetta, Kesha, Ice Cube, Jason Derulo and Alanis Morissette. (For the full lineup and ticket information, visit kaaboodelmar.com; the comedy lineup will be announced this summer.) Jane’s Addiction currently has no other 2017 performances scheduled anywhere, while EDM-pop crossover star David Guetta has yet to disclose any other U.S. festival dates for this year. Pink and Kesha’s KAABOO slots are only the second U.S. dates announced so far for either singer in 2017. Also confirmed to appear are Garbage, Logic, T-Pain, Michael McDonald, Andy Grammer, The Wallflowers, Pete Yorn and DJ Diesel (as basketball legend Shaquille O’Neal is known when he’s spinning music). Red Hot Chili Peppers and Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers are both Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees. So are fellow KAABOO 2017

performers Jackson Browne, Dave Mason and Eric Burdon & The Animals. Performances will take place on four outdoor and two indoor stages, one of which will be devoted exclusively to the festival’s comedy acts. “I think we’ve made it even more well-rounded and star-studded than the two prior lineups,” said KAABOO mastermind Bryan E. Gordon. “There are some acts in there this year that are complete legends and some that are extraordinary, up-and-coming talents. So there’s a lot of variety that should appeal to people, no matter whether you’re 20, 70 or anywhere in between.” Broad appeal has been a goal of KAABOO since its 2015 debut. The festival is the brainchild of Gordon, the Denver-based chairman of The Madison Companies LLC, the multibillion-dollar private investment firm he co-founded in 1996. This year will see KAABOO partnering with Virgin Produced. It is the entertainment

production division of Virgin, the international conglomerate whose holdings range from Virgin Airlines and Virgin Hotels to Virgin Wine and Virgin Radio International. “Virgin will be related with KAABOO in an artist relations and content-production capacity,” said KAABOO’s newly appointed Chief Marketing Officer Jason Felts, who is the CEO of Virgin Produced in Los Angeles. “We’ll be documenting the entire KAABOO experience for people who may not be able to attend. KAABOO encompasses music, (visual) art, comedy and a culinary program. We’ll ensure that we’re documenting all that from a content perspective, so it will be an immersive experience. I went to KAABOO in 2015 with my parents, who live in Del Mar, and it was incredible.” Felts was on board at the festival last year, but in a less prominent capacity. Felts also said he expects big things from the partnership between Gordon and Virgin

Produced, which specializes in movie, television and new media production. “I’ve not seen another brand in my travels, or in my experience working in Hollywood, that is almost the mirror image of the Virgin brand — other than KAABOO,” Felts said. “It delivers a quality product, with value for money. It has a focus on the consumer. And, at the end of the day, the customer comes first.” In a joint phone interview with Felts, Gordon spoke enthusiastically about the festival’s growth and Virgin Produced. He regards the partnership with Virgin as an opportune way to expand “the KAABOO brand” this year and beyond. “We think and hope we’re taking things to the next level,” Gordon said. “Our aim is to try and bring the event and brand not only to the participants who are fortunate enough to be there, but to as many other people as possible, to radiate the KAABOO SEE KAABOO, A16

Adult students captivated by top professors BY LOIS ALTER MARK “You’re now going to experience all the good things about school without the horrible things that used to make me cry, like tests and homework and being called on,” said Katrina Orsini in her welcome to 300 adult students at One Day University Saturday, March 18. Rather than sitting at cramped desks, students were gathered in the comfortable seats of the David & Dorothea Garfield Theatre in La Jolla, eager to hear from four of the top professors in the country for no other reason than simply to learn. One Day University offers day-long events in 58 cities, and this was the second year it was being held in San Diego. Many of the students were also back for their second time. The event curriculum consisted of four eclectic lectures: “Four Books Every Book Lover Should Read,” “The Psychology of Good and Evil,” “Does America’s Political System Still Work?” and “The New Middle East: The Rise of ISIS in an Explosive Region.” “We take polls to see what courses students are most interested in,” explained Steve Schragis, founder of One Day University. “And we visit schools around the country to identify the professors who are winning all the teaching awards and who get the highest ratings from the students.”

It’s easy to see why these professors were chosen. Seth Lerer, Distinguished Professor of Literature at the University of California at San Diego, charmed the audience as he moved around the theater, sharing insightful and often hilarious stories about how to find (and lose) yourself in reading, the way literature teaches you how to read life and gives you a vocabulary for expressing the world, and how reading helps you understand truth through the beauty of words. He explored four classics – David Copperfield, 1984, The Invisible Man, Catch 22 – and recommended four more recent must-reads: The

Sympathizer, The Orphan Master’s Son, The Sense of an Ending and anything by Elizabeth Strout. Lerer talked about the importance of books during this time of great social change, and showed how reading makes you more empathetic. “This talk was new for me, but what it taught me was how deeply engaged many people today still are with the emotional impact of reading and the value of the printed book,” said Lerer, who has taught at a dozen of these events. “Teaching through One Day University provides me with the chance to share the social challenges of reading with an audience of engaged adults – a group with many

courses, “Positive Psychology: The Science of Happiness,” agreed. “I love teaching at One Day U, precisely because the students are not my typical 18-22 year olds,” she laughed. “The One Day U students attend these talks because they want to learn – they are not required to be there! They are smart, engaged, and intellectually curious. Perhaps most importantly, the questions One Day U students ask are uniformly great ones – because they are based on a much broader world view and experience than my typical undergraduates.” Sanderson’s talk was riveting and timely as she explained that evil happens gradually, giving clear examples of how obedience to authority resulted in the mass suicides at Jonestown and desensitization led to the Holocaust. She pointed out that narcissism – the opposite of empathy – is way up right now and that nothing is more damaging than standing by when evil is happening. “The common feature for all of my talks is that I like to integrate cutting-edge scientific research with real-world anecdotes and examples so that people can directly apply information from empirical research to their own lives,” said Sanderson, who is the James E.

WEEK IN SPORTS BY GIDEON RUBIN Baseball: If La Costa Canyon has proved anything this year, it’s that the Mavericks are a resilient bunch. The program had some big shoes to fill after graduating the No. 1 player in Major League Baseball’s amateur draft. And if the early returns are any indication, the Mavericks appear to have adapted to life without the formidable presence of Mickey Moniak in their lineup. Their 3-1 victory over Mission Hills in a in a North County Tournament game on March 24 was their seventh straight win. The Mavericks relied on solid pitching timely hitting, as J.J. Rytz struck out five batters and allowed one unearned runs in a complete game effort, and the Mavericks made the most of six hits and two walks. Spencer Jones was 1 for 3 with one RBI and Marcus Alazard was 1 for 3 with a triple to lead the Mavericks offensively. The victory followed a slugfest with Ramona two days earlier in which Chris Nuveau and Marcus Alazard each had three hits and two RBI to lead the Mavericks in a 12-10 victory. The Mavericks improved to 7-1 overall for the season. ***** Canyon Crest Academy defeated Valley Center 7-2 in a North County Tournament game on March 24. Seth Bernstein was 1 for 3 with a triple and three runs scored. The victory followed a 1-0 win two days earlier in which Hugo Kinebuchi pitched a five-hit shutout to lead the Ravens. The Ravens improved to 7-3 overall for the season.

Pay Tribute to a Loved One

OBITUARIES

Your loved one spent a lifetime making an impact in the community. Let us help you honor their memory and share their accomplishments by creating a lasting tribute. Life Tributes James Peter Gravendyk August 16, 1951 – July 1, 2015

James Peter Gravendyk passed away peacefully at home in La Jolla, California, surrounded by loved ones on June 23, 2015. Jim was born to John and Dorothea Gravendyk on May 10, 1922.

arch was Music in Schools Month, the National Association for Music Education’s annual celebration to promote the benefits of high quality music education in schools. Coincidentally, on March 20, the first of six sessions of a program called Guitars in the Classroom was held in Solana Beach and offered teachers a fascinating introduction to ways they can use music to engage and educate their students. Guitars in the Classroom, or GITC, is a 501(c)3 non-profit dedicated to creating academic engagement through music in public schools. Founded in 1998, GITC focuses on teachers of students in kindergarten through fifth grade. GITC holds numerous training sessions throughout the year. This class was filled to capacity, with 20 teachers, mostly from Solana Beach School District’s Solana Vista School, which serves students in kindergarten through third grade. Solana Vista first-grade teacher Dawniel Malandra organized and recruited for the class. She said she had heard so much about the program and that inspired her to bring it to her school. “I’m excited to create songs together with the kids and draw them in,” Malandra said. “I want to incorporate more music into the classroom.” She said it was beneficial for teachers as well. “When teachers learn together, we can help each other,” she said. The 20 teachers were each given a ukulele and basic instruction on how to hold it, how to strum, its parts, and notes of the strings. Chords, open tuning, and keeping a steady beat were some themes. The Steady Beat lesson included counting by fours and using hand signals and body rhythms to designate the rise and fall of the notes being sung. GITC trainer Stephanie Lewis led the class,

along with Jessica Baron, GITC’s founder and executive director. Together they taught simple songs the teachers could use right away. Baron and Lewis also demonstrated more advanced ways to engage students in music and singing and showed how to incorporate English language instruction into songs. This last demo had teachers in the class visibly excited to see how GITC’s music program provides new ways to impart academic lessons. The class comes with a 44-page workbook that includes basic information on how to play dozens of familiar songs using simple chords, such as: Apples and Bananas (for vowel sounds), BINGO (spelling), and Itsy Bitsy Spider (for movement and rhyming). It’s not just learning to play to entertain and engage the kids, the instructors said. The music program will also incorporate English language and math state standards and be a powerful instructional tool. The other goal is, of course, to get kids excited about playing an instrument of their own and to make music an integral part of their lives. A magic wand The musical experience of the teachers in this beginner class ranged from zero to classical piano expertise. Nearly all taught in the lower grades, although a few taught fourth and fifth grades. One teacher said she was “ready to get out of my comfort zone.” Lewis congratulated the teachers for signing up for the class. “It takes some courage” to get up in front of your students with a new skill, she said. “You’re modeling for your students to see you learning something new.” The teachers were told they didn’t need to know how to read music to play an instrument. “Don’t count yourself out if you can’t read music,” said Baron. “It’s only visual in its

www.encinitasadvocate.com representation. Imagine if kids couldn’t speak until they learned to read.” Baron called the ukulele a magic wand, saying the teachers using the GITC system will see children who are “out of step” or with low verbal ability start to participate with the group and blossom as they begin to strum. “The point is to bring more joy and musicality into your lives, and to transmit that to your students,” she said. Baron said music is like learning a language and will grow new neural pathways in the brain. Katie Zimmer, Solana Vista principal, said she was thrilled with teacher interest in this program. “One of the reasons I am excited about the implementation of GITC is that it equips our teachers with another technique to meet the varied needs of our students,” Zimmer said. “Students learn in so many different ways, and integrating music into the classroom gives students another opportunity to access and learn the curriculum.” Solana Beach School District superintendent Terry Decker, who sat in on the first class, said it was rewarding to see teachers light up when learning something new and exciting. “It’s the same joy as when you see kids light up,” he said. He said he sees his teachers “taking a risk, stepping out, and investing in their craft,” and he applauded their commitment. The teachers are doing this on their own time, and not being paid. It originated as a grass-roots movement which Decker said is the best way to create change. “This grew out of their own interest,” he said. Decker said he had no misgivings about the program. “It’s such a well-regarded program,” he said. It’s research-based instruction which “ties beautifully into what we want kids to learn.” Promoting literacy The Solana Vista GITC sessions were funded by the Coastal Community Foundation, through a $1400 grant from the Betty Scalice Foundation which provides funding for music education for north coastal communities. Baron said the instruments for each teacher (and two for each teacher’s classroom) were donated by outside sources. Once the grant was secured, the program SEE SUTTON, A17

Stop the spending! Water agency requires fiscal reform GUEST OPINION BY MARK MUIR s working families across the San Diego region struggle to make ends meet, the Los Angeles-based Metropolitan Water District of Southern California has no such concerns. That’s because MWD can tax and raise rates at will – and it has done precisely that. Several steps removed from nearly 20 million residents it serves, MWD overcharged ratepayers $847 million more than the agency’s budgets said was needed from 2012-2015. To make matters worse, MWD overspent its budget by $1.2 billion from 2013-2016 on things like buying Bay-Delta islands ($175 million) and turf replacement ($420 million). Anyone who has tried to balance a personal budget won’t be surprised at what happened next: In 2016, MWD authorized $900 million in unplanned debt to help pay for its overspending. These unrestrained fiscal practices have contributed to a doubling of treated water rates at

MWD over the past decade – and ratepayers are about to be on the hook for a lot more unless MWD’s out-of-control spending can be stopped. A new study commissioned by the Water Authority – based on data from MWD and its member agencies – shows MWD’s existing programs and projects can meet water demand projections under all of the hydrological conditions assessed through 2040. That means MWD’s multi-billion dollar plans to develop new supplies are not needed to meet its member agencies’ current or future demands. Instead, MWD’s continued overspending would significantly increase the financial burden on ratepayers and create significant stranded assets. The analysis confirms that MWD is undercounting local supplies being developed by water agencies across Southern California. Long-term water-use efficiency standards being developed by the state will further reduce water sales. It’s important to note that these serious fiscal issues go beyond the illegal rates set by MWD that have been successfully challenged by the Water

Authority in court. A Superior Court judge ruled in 2015 that MWD set illegal rates from 2011-2014, forcing San Diego County ratepayers to subsidize water costs across Southern California. The judge ordered MWD to pay the Water Authority more than $243 million and to set only legal rates in the future. The appellate court is expected to hear the case this spring, with a decision expected later this year. Two additional lawsuits covering rates from 2015-2018 are pending because MWD has refused to limit its rates to the costs of the services it provides. MWD’s fiscal mismanagement has led us to launch an education campaign called “Stop the Spending!” designed to improve fiscal accountability and governance at MWD. Together, we are shining a spotlight on MWD’s flawed business practices in hopes of protecting residents and businesses from needless increases in their water bills. Muir is the Chair, Board of Directors for the San Diego County Water Authority. More information about the Stop the Spending! campaign is at www.mwdfacts.com.

Artists' reception to be held at Off Track Gallery April 8 The public is invited to an artists’ reception Saturday, April 8, from 4 p.m.-7 p.m., at the Off Track Gallery in Encinitas honoring two talented San Dieguito Art Guild members: Yanina Cambareri (watercolor) and Eva Zuzuarregui (jewelry). Born in Argentina, Cambareri, now lives in Encinitas. The daughter of well-known Argentinean artist Pascual Cambareri, Yanina Cambereri studied Fine Arts at Mesa College, concentrating in black and white photography as well as pencil and charcoal drawing. Her favorite medium is now watercolor, she finds excitement in the transparency of the medium and the bold use of color. Her

FROM KAABOO, A5 lifestyle. And not only during the event, but in the months leading up to and after the event.” Gordon bills KAABOO as a “mixperience.” The festival’s previous two editions have offered a range of VIP amenities, from on-site concierges and complimentary food prepared by a private chef to surfing lessons with Rob Machado and a swimming pool with private cabanas overlooking one of the stages. Last year’s edition of KAABOO saw a marked increase in attendance, with an estimated 40,000 people — the event’s daily legal capacity in 2016 — turning out on Sept. 17. That was the day when Aerosmith and The Chainsmokers each drew overflow crowds for their

paintings often reflect local and European landscapes and convey her love for nature. Growing up in Guadalajara, Mexico, Eva Zuzuarregui was surrounded by creative and talented people that influenced her world view through art. She spent her childhood observing her father painting and at a very young age she became interested in learning design with her grandmother, a fashion designer. Leaving her native Mexico 15 years ago, she followed her dream to study art. She fell in love with metals and achieved a BA degree with an emphasis in jewelry and metalwork at SDSU. Living in Carlsbad, she is in constant contact with nature, making

concurrent evening sets on the festival’s largest two outdoors stages. The big crowds led to some bumps, including traffic jams in the parking lot and longs lines of pedestrians on the festival grounds, There was also a melee that occurred when more people than could be accommodated tried to attend a late-night Saturday performance by hip-hop star Ludacris in one of the festival’s indoor performance venues. “The whole layout of the site has been tweaked from last year to try and provide for better crowd flow and a little more of a central core for late-night activities,” Gordon said. “We’re also adding a ride-share terminal, where both Uber and Lyft will be able to pick up and drop off people in a central location. “I think our philosophy has

it her persistent inspiration. Using fold-forming, enameling and repouseé techniques she designs pieces that reflect the environment around her. Refreshments will be served at the reception. All artwork in the Gallery will be 10 percent off the entire day from 10 a.m. to closing. This event is free and open to the public. The Off Track Gallery is owned and operated by the San Dieguito Art Guild, a nonprofit, 501(c)3 organization made up of over 200 talented local artists. Off Track Gallery is located at 937 South Coast Highway 101, Suite C-103, Encinitas, 760-942-3636, OffTrackGallery.com.

And we’ve received generally positive feedback about our programming, which is that people like the diversity They like the mix between legendary rock ‘n’ roll heroes, up-and-coming new artists and established acts in the middle, who are all part of the journey at KAABOO. “Last year, we had attendees from all 50 states and, I think, 33 countries, which was a significant increase from 2015. The word is spreading, because people are telling their friends and family about KAABOO on social media. And word-of-mouth is the best advertising,” For more information, visit kaaboodelmar.com — George Varga is a writer for The San Diego Union-Tribune

FROM PROFESSORS, A7 popular professor. “I always end my talks with specific strategies that people can use and implement in their own lives. My hope is that people will not just find my talks intellectually engaging, but also practical in terms of learning strategies they can use in some way moving forward.” Students had so many questions for her, she had to offer her email address so lunch could be served. Following a box lunch, during which time students discussed what they had learned in the morning, the afternoon session started – and it was just as engaging. Schragis relates to the students’ enthusiasm, which is what gave him the idea to start One Day University back in 2005. “I was bringing my daughter to college in upstate New York, and there were a

dozen professors scattered around campus, giving short talks on the subject they taught,” he explained. “The parents all loved it and thought, ‘This is great! I wish I were the one going to college!’” He bought the URL that night and held the first One Day University event in Westchester County, New York, about 40 miles outside of Manhattan. A decade later, there are more than 100 events a year, and the number continues to grow. More than 66,000 students have attended One Day University, with an impressive 70 percent return rate. The next San Diego event will be held on Oct. 14. Courses will include “The Impossible Presidency: The Rise and Fall of America’s Highest Office,” “Music as a Mirror of History: 300 Years in 60 Minutes” and “The Science of Stress and the Practice of Mindfulness.” For more information and to register, visit www.onedayu.com.

was made available. A minimum of six teachers was needed to start the class, which at first worried organizer Malandra. But a few days before the first session, 20 had signed up, with more on a waitlist. Besides Solana Beach, other North County school districts that have received GITC training include Encinitas and Oceanside. Based in San Diego and active in 32 states, GITC has trained approximately 10,000 Song Leaders who are serving more than 500,000 students each week. The trainers and leadership work closely with teachers to build dynamic curriculum for literacy through music, supplying teachers and students with training, music-driven academic instruction, coaching, educational materials, and access to instruments and musical accessories. Music in the classroom, GITC leaders say, can be used effectively as a key strategy for learning across the academic curriculum. “The inclusion of music increases student engagement in and enthusiasm for learning,” according to the website. “Our work promotes the joy of learning through the power of strumming, singing and

FROM TRANSGENDER, A2 Holmes said she does not know what prompted the staff member to approach her as she left the restroom. She said she looks older than 21, and had not been asked to show her ID when she entered the venue. She believes the Belly Up employees were “profiling me as transgender.” “As a transgender individual in San Diego, I am aware there will be discrimination in different places, but I never would have expected a major music venue would have been discriminatory toward a transgender person,” she said. After the incident, Holmes said she contacted Solana Beach Mayor Mike Nichols, who referred her to City Attorney Johanna N. Canlas, who in turn provided contact information for DFEH. Neither Nichols nor Canlas responded to a request for comment as of press-time. Holmes said she and her wife requested, and received, a refund for their tickets to the concert, and left the venue. Holmes said she plans to file a complaint with DFEH. If Holmes does so, said Kish, the agency will interview her to determine if it has jurisdiction over the alleged violation. If so, the agency would then investigate. If the violation is substantiated, DFEH would attempt to mediate a

FROM CLASH, A2 fundraiser — which was scheduled from 5:30 to 10:30 p.m. — was over in the hotel’s bar. “At the point that I was notified, I was on my way out,” she said. “It was

songwriting. “Think of the power of ‘The Alphabet Song’ to teach young children their letters, and take that to the 100th power. This is GITC.” “I used the ukulele the very next day,” said Dawniel Malandra. “Every student was participating. As we learn more songs and how to write songs, I will be able to tailor our needs and match it with curriculum objectives. I think it will tap in to the students who are auditory and kinesthetic learners and those with an affinity toward music.” Malandra said she told her students she was taking the class. “They were excited to know how it went,” she said. “I think modeling life-long learning is important. I shared my successes and challenges with my new endeavor.” Lefty rights On a personal note, in addition to my obvious lack of musical ability and poor self-discipline, I blamed being left-handed for why I failed at guitar. Teachers always made me play right-handed, which I simply could not do. Air guitar for me is automatically lefty. So I was overjoyed when Jess Baron handed me a lefty ukulele at the Solana Vista training session to practice on. It felt so “right” to go left. Said Baron, “You happen to have a

new friend who is a vocal proponent of left-handed teaching for left-handed people. I have gone on the record many times in guitar education as fighting the mainstream and defending the right of lefties to play lefty.” Music to my ears. As an aside, Decker, who said the only music he could play is the radio, was strumming along with the best of them at the session. I’m looking forward to musical school board meetings in the near future. Early exposure to music for young children becomes more important – and more challenging than ever – with the federal government’s recent proposal to eliminate all funding for the National Endowment for the Arts, which has historically provided modest funding for music instruction in schools. The GITC program strives to promote academic achievement through its innovative approach to music integration in the classroom. Guitars in the Classroom is offering a summer class at Brick 15 coffee house in Del Mar (dates to be determined), and a teacher retreat in Julian Aug. 3-6.

resolution, which could involve working with the Belly Up to train its employees on requirements of state law, with the goal of ensuring that such incidents do not occur in the future. In the case of a lack of cooperation when a violation is determined, said Kish, DFEH could file a lawsuit seeking compliance. Kish suggested that one way to avoid such issues is for establishments, when possible, to have unisex bathrooms. Unisex restrooms are also convenient for people with children, or those with disabilities, he said. Holmes said she had recently been to a concert at a San Diego venue with unisex restrooms, which “makes it obvious that I’m welcome there and nobody’s going to give me any problem.” As to the issue of safety and security in restrooms, Kish said that if a person is harassing others, action can be taken whether the person is transgender or not, and it would not be a civil rights violation. “The reality is the people who are not safe in bathrooms are transgender people,” Kish said, because they can be subject to harassment. Holmes said she wants the Belly Up to admit its mistake. “I want them to take public responsibility for their actions and to change their policy. I want them to be a welcoming environment,” she said.

“The point is to make people understand, we’re just people like anybody else. I live my life no differently than anyone else, why should I be singled out?” The band Vaud and the Villains issued the following statement about the alleged incident: “As a show, we are proud of our tremendously broad and diverse fanbase. Our message of acceptance is evident in our performances. Maybe that is why Nataliya brought this situation to us, and we are glad she did. We would not hesitate to abstain from playing a venue if we knew they maintained a policy that discriminated against anyone. We all thrive in communities where we feel safe and accepted. And we believe that music does more to heal and unite than to divide. When we relayed this incident and our concerns to the Belly Up, they assured us that they do not have any policy that discriminates against anyone, period. We feel given our relationship with the Belly Up and the fact that they seem eager to resolve the matter, that there is hope for a satisfying conclusion here. No one should be made to feel “less than” but in this time of change, it is important to understand and to allow that there will be mistakes and to give those people a chance to fix them. That is how we all conquer this...together and with empathy and compassion.”

unfortunate that something occurred between these two men, but I’m happy it didn’t impact our children and the fundraiser was successful.” Pfingst said Fuller regrets his actions. “Mr. Fuller regrets what happened because it certainly detracted from the

event,” Pfingst said. “He and his wife are committed to the school and the PTA.” The Run for the Roses Spring Auction Gala annually raises money for the school’s enrichment program. More than $55,000 was raised at Saturday’s event, according to Capri PTA’s website.

that, and right now I’m feeling very optimistic about our progress in putting together a new plan that we can take back to the voters.” In finances, Blakespear encouraged the community to shop local. Sales taxes made up 14 percent of the city’s budget last year, she said, and almost half of the city’s $85 million yearly operating budget comes from property taxes. But Encinitas isn’t without its financial threats. The city has faced several lawsuits from developers because it has not yet implemented a housing element, Blakespear said. The mayor also said the city’s budget is balanced, as required by state law, and there is about $31.8 million in reserves. “We are in the enviable position of having a substantial amount of money in our Capital Improvement Program,” she said. “Many cities devote the majority of their revenue to operating expenses and debt service which leaves very little for capital projects.” Encinitas’ capital projects include the Leucadia Streetscape project, rail corridor quiet zones, drainage improvements, street and pavement improvements and a new park in Leucadia. The city has an unfunded pension liability of close to $40 million, but over the last three years has allocated five percent of annual savings toward the unfunded pension liability, which equates to about $1 million, Blakespear said. Additionally, the city sends the state about $4.8 million per year in pension costs, which is a number that is rising, the mayor said. She expects the city council to consider pre-paying additional pension liability during upcoming

tiny bit of the preserved open space land in Encinitas, city Park & Recreation Director Jennifer Campbell said. Other government entities, including the state of California, hold title to some 1,200 acres of open space in town, including the San Elijo Lagoon and the Manchester Preserve. On March 22, the council didn’t suggest any specific properties that should go on the commission’s buy-now list, but they and some audience members had advice on how to rank any potential prospects. Connectivity — how close a new parcel might be to existing open space areas — was mentioned several times as a high-value item. Councilman Tony Kranz said people also typically forget to to calculate how much habitat maintenance work a property might regularly need. He said that ought to be a factor in the commission’s recommendations. Parks Commissioner Doug Goad suggested potential sites should be places that the public can easily get to and use.

Mayor Catherine Blakespear addresses a room of 250 people at Encinitas’ annual State of the City event on March 28. strategic planning sessions. Most of the city’s money last year — 27 percent — was spent toward public safety, Blakespear said. Violent crime citywide decreased 17 percent in 2016 compared to 2015. Blakespear referenced a $100,000 allocation from the city council toward an overtime fund for the San Diego County Sheriff Department’s North Coastal Station to use as needed, with a particular focus on preventing and managing problems downtown. Calls for service downtown decreased by 2.5 percent in 2016. A new sheriff’s station is also expected to open downtown later this year. Regarding fire and marine safety, Blakespear said the fire department responded to 5,883 incidents last year, most of which were medical related. CPR training was also provided by the fire department to all seventh graders in Encinitas, the mayor said. Lifeguards also performed more than

1,000 rescues and provided medical aid to more than 2,000 people. More than three million people visited Encinitas beaches in 2016. Blakespear also touched upon other ongoing city projects, including the updated Climate Action Plan, the revitalization of the Pacific View site, efforts to help alleviate homelessness and efforts from parks and recreation to promote quality of life. She also discussed business development, and said Lazy Acres and the Crack Shack are a “good reminder of change being good.” One of the city’s “biggest priorities” is the Coastal Mobility and Livability Study, which includes quieting train horns, the mayor said. “So is the State of our City stormy or clear?” Blakespear asked in closing. “Let me assure you, it’s clear and beautiful and our future is bright. Much has been accomplished and many opportunities lie ahead.”

Encinitas and its surrounding areas is an awesome community with such a great vibe. Getting to know the community is one of the best parts of the job.

FROM ZOO, A4 horses passed away at the ages of 27 and 25 and a heartbroken Kramer-Glickman wasn’t sure she could ever own a horse again. Her whole life changed after a friend asked her to visit her horse in Del Mar at Far West Farms, owned by Sandy Arledge. At Far West Farms she saw horses and foals everywhere, chickens running around, some goats, a cow, peacocks, rescued rabbits and guinea pigs, and dogs. “I had only seen this many animals in a zoo. All the animals got along, the dogs did not chase the chickens or the horses. The peacocks walk along and did their own thing. Life seemed balanced and in harmony and chickens came when you called their name,” Kramer-Glickman said. She was hooked on the farm life and bought a quarter-horse from Arledge and then got some chickens of her own — she would’ve

never thought that chickens could be such loving creatures. “They had personalities, they were affectionate and I felt like it was Christmas morning every day when I collected their eggs,” Kramer-Glickman said. She became more than just a horse rider but a small farmer, purchasing baby bunnies, a baby goat and helped nurse a baby sheep back to life, bottle feeding it while it lived in her home. As her little farm grew larger, she created Pammy’s Pony Parties and Petting Zoo to take the show on the road. “I couldn’t wait to bring them to preschools, senior homes and share my new experience. There is so much unconditional love all around us,” Kramer-Glickman said. One of the things she enjoys most about her traveling petting zoo is the joy it brings. She watches as children with learning disabilities or people who are overcoming cancer find their strength again and feel powerful by riding a

“It’s not always ideal to have open space and not have access to it,” he said. The council had been asked March 22 to consider forming a new city committee to shepherd the open space project, but instead decided the parks commission was up to the task. Setting up a new group would have required extra work by city staff. “To me, this just seems like a more effective way to proceed,” Mayor Catherine Blakespear said. Councilman Joe Mosca, who previously served on the parks commission, said he thought the panel was definitely up to the task, calling them a “brilliant” bunch of people. Councilman Mark Muir, who originally put forward the idea of having Encinitas focus on open space acquisition in the coming year, asked whether the parks commissioners wanted the job. Several parks commissioners in the audience vigorously nodded their heads in response. --- Barbara Henry is a freelance writer for The San Diego Union-Tribune in Encinitas.

FROM CLIMATE, A1 support it,” he said. “Whatever happens, I think we need to have the conversation with the community about what it does. I think the community should weigh in.” He said he believed it would be difficult to get residents to approve of such a fee. The council deliberated over postponing the vote until after Muir met with proponents in order to achieve a unanimous vote, but ultimately decided to move forward with the motion at the March 22 meeting. The motion to approve support of the program was also amended to formally assign Muir to meet with proponents. Deputy Mayor Tony Kranz supported the program and said he hoped Encinitas’ vote in favor would influence others. “It’s time to show leadership,” he said. “I think we need to continue to work to raise the awareness, not only with our legislators, but also with the members of our community.”

horse or leading as goat; she delights seeing children cradle a chicken or give her big fluffy sheep Julian a snuggly hug. “I’m getting a chance in my senior years to do something I love,” Kramer-Glickman said. Kramer-Glickman loves seeing children coming straight from school to the ranch for lessons or training, caring for their own horses or visiting her sheep and goats. She has led several children through training to get their “Animal Handler’s License.” Having the license allows them to come visit and care for ponies, goats and sheep on the Rancho Cielo property, giving them a sense of responsibility. “When they’re at the ranch, they’re not inside by a computer or playing video games, they’re out in the fresh air. It’s so wonderful,” said Kramer-Glickman, noting the therapeutic feeling she gets from being on the ranch after a busy day, taking a leisurely horse ride in beautiful Rancho Santa Fe. “You go out and you just feel like you’re in a different world. It

doesn’t seem to matter how stressful my day is, I can come here and just exhale.” Kramer-Glickman said beyond that sense of calm and unconditional love, there is so much to learn from being on the ranch. One of her favorite lessons to share with kids is that when they are walking or riding a horse or goat, you have to pick a focus point and go toward it and the animal will follow your lead. “It is my philosophy in life that if you have a plan and look ahead to where you want to go, you’ll get there,” Kramer-Glickman said. U.K. Equestrian is located at 18547 Aliso Canyon Road. Pammy’s Ponies upcoming Summer Equestrian Camp will allow campers to learn about all the basics of horse care through games and activities. In addition to feeding, grooming and equine education they will also get to interact with pigs, sheep, ducks, goats, rabbits, chickens and more.
