Citations on rise for pedestrians crossing tracks illegally in Encinitas

BY JARED WHITLOCK No train was in sight. So a middle-aged couple holding hands near East Jason Street in Leucadia crossed the tracks the morning of May 1.

A stone’s throw to the north, a surfer without shoes carefully stepped across the railway. Ten minutes later, a jogger followed suit.

With few legal crossings in Encinitas, such occurrences are common. But they’re more likely to draw a citation these days.

So far this year, the Sheriff’s Department has issued 29 citations for trespassing on the railroad in Encinitas, a penalty that carries a maximum $1,000 fine and requires a court appearance. In 2014 there were six tickets locally, with none in 2013.

Some residents argue the citations are unnecessary — and unfair, given the lack of legal crossings — while law enforcement officials say tickets are sometimes in order.

“Our biggest concern is making sure people are safe,” said Sheriff’s Sgt. Jason King, who oversees the Encinitasbased Rail Enforcement Unit.

King said the increase in tickets is primarily a function of the unit expanding, resulting in more patrols spotting railway trespassers.

Early last year, North County Transit District approved a new contract that upped the unit from two deputies to five deputies and a sergeant.

The unit handles everything from trespassers to vandals to railway fatalities throughout the region. It patrols buses and transit centers, too.

A March 20 enforcement operation netted 14 citations in Leucadia, while 10 out-of-state visitors were given warnings, according to records.

“The deputies must have felt that giving them a warning was more appropriate in that instance,” King said. He

Photo by Jared Whitlock said that there’s been a push over the past year to inform residents about the dangers of illegally crossing the tracks. Posted “no trespassing” signs also serve as a warning, he added.

King said he doesn’t instruct deputies on when to issue citations, nor are there written Sheriff’s Department criteria.

“It’s basically a deputy’s discretion on whether they feel a citation is appropriate or not,” King said.

A deputy in the unit told the Encinitas Advocate last June that the letter of the law See TRACKS, page 20

BY JARED WHITLOCK The two water districts that serve Encinitas will need to slash their water use under mandatory measures approved on May 5 by the California Water Resources Control Board.

With cuts ranging from 8 to 36 percent throughout the state, the San Dieguito Water District is being ordered to reduce use by 28 percent. The Olivenhain Municipal Water District’s target: 36 percent.

“Times are a little crazy, but we’ll get through it,” said Bill O’Donnell, general manager of the San Dieguito district.

To grapple with the steep cutback, the San Dieguito district board on May 20 will consider higher “drought rates,” which are designed to stabilize the district’s budget to make up for lost water sales.

Currently, the average residential bill is $122.13 bimonthly, and if the board approves the drought rates, this would jump 9.3 percent to $133.45.

The new rates, if adopted, would likely take effect

Big fix planned for Encinitas rail crossing North County cities eye sea-level studies Good news for commuters and pedestrians in Encinitas: The Federal Railroad Administration has approved a $2.2 million grant to improve the railroad crossing at Chesterfield Drive.

The construction program is designed to improve the safety of the busy crossing and will include amenities for autos, bikers and walkers. “I’m so pleased that the federal transportation officials recognized the importance of these improvements,� said County Supervisor Dave Roberts. “They will go a long way toward keeping people safe.�

In August, he lobbied for the Pacific Surfliner Chesterfield Drive Crossing Improvements Project in a letter to Federal Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx.

In the letter, Roberts noted that the railway between Los Angeles and San Diego is the second busiest in the nation and carries passenger and freight trains.

What’s more, Chesterfield is the only legal crossing for more than 1 1/2 miles in both directions and is used heavily by pe-

destrians to access the beach and state campgrounds, Roberts wrote.

The San Diego Association of Governments is coordinating the construction program, which is set to begin in January 2016.

A project description from SANDAG shows that the job includes: • Replacing free-flowing right turn lanes and pedestrian islands with protected sidewalk bulb-outs; • Adding multi-use bike paths with a switchback to reduce the overall grade; • Widened sidewalks; • New railway crossing signals, gates, and signs, as well as new street signals and signs; • Synchronized traffic signals at adjacent intersections.

The improvements build upon the planned San Elijo Lagoon Double Track Project, which calls for construction of 1.5 miles of new double track to create a 4.2-mile stretch of double track across the lagoon to Solana Beach. -Submitted press release

• Bridges, roads, blufftop homes at risk from changing conditions

BY BARBARA HENRY, SPECIAL TO THE ENCINITAS ADVOCATE Rising sea levels could play havoc with North County’s lagoons, eat away parts of Highway 101 and damage blufftop properties in the coming decades.

Carlsbad and Del Mar — two of North County’s five coastal cities — recently have secured grant money to study exactly how much harm rising sea levels may cause to their coastlines, and they both expect to complete their studies in April 2017. The other three cities — Solana Beach, Encinitas and Oceanside — are trying for funding, but haven’t been successful.

Representatives for all five cities gathered Thursday afternoon for the first-ever meeting of the Encinitas Sea Level Rise Subcommittee, a group created by the Encinitas City Council. They shared their concerns, compared state and federal grant options, and discussed plans to create a website that could act as a regional “clearing house� for their climate change-related work in the coming years.

All of them said they expect the issue to have a major impact on their communities far into the future, noting that scientists are forecasting that global temperatures and sea levels will gradually rise throughout the next 100 years as concentrations of greenhouse gases in the Earth’s atmosphere continue to increase.

In Del Mar, beachfront properties aren’t the only places at risk from global climate change, Councilman Dwight Worden said. “We’ve got a $90 million lagoon restoration� project that could be adversely affected if sea levels drastically change, he said.

There’s also the railroad line, fellow Del

Mar Councilman Don Mosier said. “The railroad bridges are vulnerable,� he added, noting that the aging rail bridge across San Dieguito Lagoon already “is not looking good� because high tides lap against the bridge supports.

In Solana Beach, the focus is on bluff protection because the city doesn’t have many low-lying areas, but Encinitas officials worry about what rising sea levels might do to south Cardiff’s portion of Coast Highway 101, which runs over a sand berm across San Elijo Lagoon.

Oceanside officials have both beach and harbor areas to worry about, and the city hasn’t had any success getting grant money simply to study beach sand issues, Mayor Jim Wood said.

He said city officials know that catastrophic events in other parts of the globe can have a direct impact on Oceanside, because the tsunami that followed the March 2011 earthquake in Japan pushed debris onto Oceanside beaches.

North County coastal cities aren’t the only ones in San Diego County worrying about climate change. Imperial Beach has its own climate change study in the works, noted Keith Greer, a senior regional planner for the San Diego Association of Governments. And the California State Parks system is assessing statewide what climate change may do to its properties, said Darren Smith, a state parks environmental scientist.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency also is studying coastal flooding issues, and may be releasing results for central and northern California in the coming months, said FEMA consultant Darryl Hatheway.

Nepal native raising funds for earthquake relief trip

BY JARED WHITLOCK Hem Rai, owner of Earth’s Elements in Encinitas, is asking for help. And time is of the essence.

Rai, 36, plans to lead a relief trip to Nepal’s Sindhupalchok District, which was hard hit by the 7.8-magnitude earthquake that struck April 25. He explained in a May 3 interview that remote parts of Sindhupalchok are in need because most aid efforts have focused on Kathmandu, the country’s capital.

Many in Sindhupalchok lost their homes, and to make matters worse, the monsoon season is approaching. Monsoon rains increase the likelihood of water-borne diseases and landslides, particularly for those without shelter. “Monsoon season creates very challenging conditions,� Rai said. “It’s very important these people get help now.�

He added the group, called Californians for Nepal, will provide blankets, tents, first-aid kits, rice, cookware and other supplies.

To donate, visit gofundme.com/t8gywms. A link to the page can also be found at earthselementsonline.com.

Also, Earth’s Elements, 559 S. Coast Highway 101, is taking donations of sleeping bags, medical supplies and other necessities until Sunday, May 10.

Local doctors, a nurse, a paramedic and others have signed up to join Rai in the quest to deliver supplies and provide aid.

For him, leading expeditions is familiar territory. Rai has guided climbing treks throughout Nepal, Tibet and Bhutan as part of Kirat Treks, his outdoor adventure company that’s a side business.

Rai grew up in the small mountain village of Helwabasi. Though navigating through Nepal’s remote regions, where the relief need is greatest, can be difficult, it’s practically second nature to him. “Growing up, you don’t have to practice to be a mountain guide,� Rai said. “You’re already a mountain guide. You’re born with it.�

Friends and family back in Helwabasi were largely unaffected by the earthquake.

Still, he knows people throughout Nepal who have seen or been affected by the destruction. “People have lost their

decade ago, opening Himalayan Treasures in Idyllwild not long after. Earth’s Elements followed about three years ago.

So far, the relief effort has brought in critical supplies and raised $6,000, including money donated to gofundme.com/ t8gywms and directly to Earth’s Elements.

To maximize funds for those in need, volunteers on the expedition are paying their own way. That said, Rai said the group has about a dozen volunteers so far, and is seeking sponsorships to offset travel costs. “The volunteers are amazing. They’re taking time away from their families to help.�

Rai said the relief effort could last about a month, though potentially longer. Given the uncertainty, he bought a one-way ticket to stay flexible. “They need help. And my belief is life matters — no matter where you’re from.�

As of May 5, the earthquake’s death toll was 7,500, with another 14,500 injured. Those numbers are expected to increase.

The idea for the trip came right after the April 25 earthquake, when an employee of Earth’s Elements put out a jar seeking donations for relief efforts. For Rai, it was a deciding moment. “I thought, ‘If I want to help, then I want to be all the way in or out.’ I decided I could do more.�

Rai’s passion for his home country is well established.

During a stint as a tour guide in India, he dreamt of moving to the U.S. and selling goods made by people in his home village, where craft skills are handed down over generations.

He did exactly that when he arrived in the U.S. about a

Rhoades School student addresses SD council on importance of organ donation dering if the organ would be available in time, and the pain and anguish of watching my mother, the person who has always been there for me, suffer and grow weaker before my eyes. ... The day she received her transplant was the most joyful day of our lives. Over the course of the past few months, we have watched the miracle of transplant make my mom stronger every day.”

The council members were moved by Luke’s speech and raised up “Donate Life” placards to show their support of organ donation. They honored Luke, along with LifeSharing San Diego, with an official proclamation declaring April as Organ Donation Month.

Interim director appointed at Boys & Girls Clubs of San Dieguito

Luke Pusateri, a middle school student at The Rhoades School, addressed the San Diego City Council on April 28 about the importance of organ donation, a subject with which his family is acutely familiar.

Six months ago, Luke’s mother, Lee Ann, was just months away from succumbing to pulmonary fibrosis when she received word that an organ had become available for her.

Mrs. Pusateri immediately underwent double lung transplant surgery, a procedure that saved her life. Luke compellingly shared with council members his family’s experience, highlighting the fact that this organ donation not only saved his mother’s life, but also significantly affected his and his younger sister’s lives. Luke informed the council members that in the last year, close to 100 San Diegans died while waiting for an organ transplant and spoke of his relief was that his mother wasn’t one of them.

“Pulmonary fibrosis is an autoimmune disease that kills 40,000 Americans each year, the exact same number as breast cancer. Lung transplant is one of the only options available to these victims,” Luke told the council. He went on to say, “People often hear the stories of the person who received the transplant, but I wonder if they know the impact it makes on their families. I lived with the fear and uncertainty of waiting for a donor, won-

“Marineke has experience as both a benefactor of the BGC San Dieguito programs, with two kids attending, and as the current director of human resources,” said Lenihan.

“Her direction and consistency allowed for 250 employees to rely on her guidance and support.”

This HR role has also given Vandervort a deep knowledge in all the major aspects of the Club’s operations, key programs and offerings, and people assets to further the BGC mission to all 5,700 kids and families the Club serves annually. In 2013, Vandervort was awarded Administrative Staff of the Year by The Professional Association of the Boys and Girls Clubs of America, representing more than 4,000 clubs around the United States and 52,000 adult professional staff that serve them.

Senior volunteers honored for service The Encinitas Senior Citizen Commission, working with the Encinitas Rotary Club, announces the recipients for the 2014 “Senior Citizen of the Year Award” and “Service to Seniors Award.” This inaugural awards program identifies and celebrates those who have selflessly contributed to community as senior citizen role models or as someone who advocates on behalf of senior citizens.

“Senior Citizen of the Year” is awarded to Betsy Barnhart, who volunteers at the Cardiff Library, Ecke Elementary School, the Community Resource Center, and Interfaith Ministries. She has helped children become lifelong readers by teaching them the joy of books and reading. She is affectionately called “Grandma Betsy.” She has also volunteered with programs to help the homeless and the hungry. Her nominator, Lori Turley, a friend and worker at the Cardiff Library, says “she is an inspiration to all, young and old, and everyone that knows her loves her.”

Barnhart’s secret to longevity, she says, is to drink lots of water, exercise, and do something for somebody every day.

“Service to Seniors” is awarded to Connie McIntire, who volunteers with Meals-onWheels, serves as a board member of the Encinitas Historical Society and leads tours for third-graders at the San Dieguito Heritage Museum. Her nominator, John McLevie, says she has been closely involved as founder and continuing coordinator of two groups formed to support the needs of senior citizens: Extra Zest in Living and Aging Gracefully. Other awards she has received are the Coastal Community Services Award for Human Services, and Founders Award for Hospice in the North Coast.

The recipients will be honored at a City Council meeting at 6 p.m. May 13, with a proclamation, an award, and a perpetual plaque housed at the Encinitas Senior Center. Also, they were the guests of honor May 6 at an Encinitas Rotary Club luncheon.

Local playwright plans to stage his hangman musical, ‘Rope,’ in San Diego

BY PAT SHERMAN For local playwright Mark Sickman, seeing a production go from page to stage means paying close attention to what theater companies are looking for at a given moment.

“It’s a difficult situation for the local playwright,” said the retired Chicago and San Diego advertising professional, who also runs a website for people who write sports-themed poetry, baseballbard.com.

“People like me are writing and scrambling to make contacts and to get our work through the door of the theaters. The theaters, on the other hand, are overwhelmed with submissions. You have to go where you think your work is going to be accepted.”

Although Sickman has submitted to local companies, and has at times had his work accepted, he casts a wide, thoughtful net.

“There are theaters all over the country looking for work,” he said. “I subscribe to a number of industry publications and newsletters, and there are websites where they have listings of theaters that are looking for (specific types of ) submissions.”

That sense of focused diligence has paid off for Sickman, who has had his plays and musicals produced from Los Angeles to Lewisburg, W. Va., and, most recently, at Robert Moss Theater in New York City’s East Village, where his musical “Rope” entered the finals of the Venus Theater Festival, garnering four awards.

Sickman received word last November that “Rope” had been accepted into the festival while he was doing a staged reading (without sets or full costumes) of “Rope” at San Diego’s Tenth Avenue Arts Center, where he also plans to do a full production of the musical in March 2016.

“Having done the reading here first made it a little bit easier to do the production in New York,” he said. “It was very fortuitous.”

Like several of Sickman’s other works, including “Kiss Them and Mark Sickman Wish Them Goodbye” (staged at Coronado Playhouse), “Rope” is based on historical events. His musical “Greenbrier” was set in a luxury resort near the Allegheny Mountains during World War II, where 1,000 Axis personnel and their families were detained for nearly six months. It received standing ovations and sold out the theater several nights when performed in Lewisburg.

Written last year, “Rope” is based loosely on the story of George Maledon, a hangman who oversaw the executions of more than 60 convicted criminals, landing him the moniker “The Prince of Hangmen.”

“He really was very good at his job,” Sickman said. “He had a catchphrase, ‘justice with dignity.’ What that meant to him was that the prisoner had to be made as comfortable as

Teresa Kelsey as Mildred Maledon, the fame-seeking hangman’s wife, in Mark Sickman’s musical, ‘Rope.’ Sickman likens her to an early American version of Kim Kardashian. possible, to be put completely at ease — no sudden movements, nothing frightening. These events typically would draw a large crowd, so he maintained absolute silence from the crowd, spoke in a very practiced and soft voice, and even wore shoes that wouldn’t make noise as he moved across the platform to do his work. He actually conceived of the prisoner as a partner in the event.”

Although the real George Maledon worked in the federal court of Judge Isaac Parker in Fort Smith, Ark., Sickman’s character, William Maledon, plies his trade throughout the southwestern United States. The setting is 1895 in Summit City, Ariz., where Maledon is set to hang his last man, a convicted murderer.

While Sickman eschews the typical spectacle of public executions, his wife, Mildred, revels in the spotlight she has created for herself as the “hangman’s wife,” and is vehementSee PLAYWRIGHT, page 20

Local volunteer helps the Globe Guilders keep theater arts vital

BY KRISTINA HOUCK This year is a special year for the Globe Guilders, the auxiliary group that supports San Diego-based The Old Globe Theater. It is the 25th anniversary of the group’s largest fundraiser, the 60th anniversary of the organization, and the 80th anniversary of The Old Globe.

Local resident Margi Sargis is proud to play a part in the major milestones.

“It’s much more than volunteer work,” Sargis said. “It’s like a family.”

As board president of the Globe Guilders, Sargis is leading the organization as it celebrates its anniversary, along with the silver anniversary of its fashion show and luncheon, “Celebrating Couture 2015,” on May 12 at the Hilton San Diego Bayfront Hotel.

For a quarter-century, the Globe Guilders have brought fashion and fundraising together to benefit The Old Globe Theater.

“Our committee has really put their heart and soul into this year’s fashion show,” said Sargis. “It’s going to be a wonderful event.”

This year’s event will once again feature fashions by world-renowned couture designer Naeem Khan.

Khan’s collections have been showcased in the show for seven years. From Beyoncé to Michelle Obama, his work has been worn by some of the world’s highest-profile celebrities and political figures.

“His designs are fun to look at, and they

make real women look beautiful,” Sargis said.

The fashion show is just one of the volunteer-based group’s yearly fundraisers for The Old Globe Theatre.

Founded in 1955, today the Globe Guilders has more than 200 members who organize fundraisers to support The Old Globe Theatre. With a year-round season of 15 plays and musicals on its three stages, the theater is San Diego’s largest performing arts institution.

Guilders also volunteer in the Globe’s costume shop, education department and special events, and even provide scholarships for theater students.

By becoming a Guilder years ago, Sargis said she took the “back door” to get involved in the arts.

“I got active in Guilders and then I fell in love with theater,” she said. “Now, I look forward to every play. I feel like I’m doing something to support something worthwhile.”

A retired middle school teacher, Sargis said she’s proudest of the theater’s education programs.

Committed to supporting arts education, the Globe offers in-school programs, adult programs and a graduate acting program through its education department.

“I think that the arts are so important, and I don’t just mean the theater — I mean theater, music, visual arts, the opera,” Sargis

The cast of “The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee” at Intrepid Shakespeare Co. — Daren Scott

Age 3 to Grade 12

Intrepid making pitch for new theater

d:

•Encinitas company unveiling proposal — plus a new season

BY JAMES HEBERT, SPECIAL TO THE ENCINITAS ADVOCATE Next Wednesday, Intrepid Theater co-founder Christy Yael-Cox will go before the Encinitas City Council to talk up a project that would represent a huge step in the company’s evolution.

Intrepid, which has been based in Encinitas since 2010, is proposing to develop a new performance space at the Encinitas Ranch Town Center, the shopping plaza along El Camino Real in the north-central portion of the coastal city.

But Intrepid, run by Yael-Cox (the theater’s producing artistic director/CEO) and her husband, Sean Yael-Cox (coartistic chief and director of operations), will be the first to have already been producing regularly in Encinitas. That location, set aside for a potential performing-arts operation when the center was developed in 1994, has drawn interest and (in some cases) formal proposals from at least four theater companies over the years.

The company has staged almost all of its shows over the past five years at San Dieguito Academy (although its most recent production, “The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee,” went up at San Marcos High School).

Intrepid also hosts numerous readings at the Encinitas Library, and the Yael-Coxes live in town.

Christy Yael-Cox’s presentation next week will include renderings of the proposed space, an overview of Intrepid’s business plan and a rundown of the benefits to the community.

She says the city then will either agree to move forward in partnership with Intrepid, or direct city staff to initiate a request for proposals (RFP) for the space.

If Intrepid’s plans do earn council approval (obviously the company’s hope), “we’ll immediately launch the public portion of the capital campaign,” says Yael-Cox. “If it goes to an RFP, we will certainly submit a proposal and work through the process.”

The proposal envisions a two-phase project: First, constructing a small (130 seats or so) theater over the next 12 to 18 months; and then eventually building out a 300- to 400foot space over a span of six to eight years.

Intrepid has been one of the fastest-rising young theater troupes around San Diego County, both in terms of artistic accomplishment and audience draw; the company reports year-to-year revenue increases of 70-75 percent a year since its founding.

Earlier this year, Intrepid won the Don Braunagel Award for Outstanding Work by a Small Theater Company, presented by the San Diego Theatre Critics Circle. The company also won two awards for its production of Arthur Miller’s “All My Sons.” (Full disclosure: I’m a Critics Circle member.)

“Intrepid has grown up in Encinitas over the past five years,” Yael-Cox said. “We are eager to give back to the community that raised us by offering them critically successful theater productions and continually expanding programming in our new space, as well as fill an ever-growing need in Encinitas by giving other local arts organizations a home

f o s

Intrepid Theatre Co. cofounders Christy and Sean Yael-Cox.— Daren Scott to grow.”

Meanwhile, while all this is happening, Intrepid also has a new season in store.

The company actually announced the outlines of its 2015-16 season about a month ago, but since then, production schedules and locations have shifted a bit.

So, a look at the latest lineup and dates: “The Quality of Life,” July 3 to Aug. 2: Yael-Cox directs Emmy Award-winner Jane Anderson’s story of two couples confronting tough decisions amid the backdrop of a natural disaster.

The show’s cast will feature San Diego favorites Jeffrey Jones, Tom Stephenson and DeAnna Driscoll. The piece is a local premiere.

This show and its Shakespeare companion will go up at the Carlsbad Village Theatre in downtown Carlsbad.

“The Winter’s Tale,” July 11 to Aug 2 (in rep with “The Quality of Life”): Sean Yael-Cox directs Shakespeare’s great, tragicomic saga of friendships and families torn apart and renewed. (Plus that famous stage direction: “Exit, pursued by a bear.”)

BY MIKE FREEMAN SPECIAL TO THE ENCINITAS ADVOCATE Action video camera maker GoPro has leased 45,000 square feet in the remodeled former San Diego International Floral Exchange building in Carlsbad — boosting the high-profile company’s local footprint.

Based in San Mateo, GoPro was founded in 2004 by UC San Diego graduate Nick Woodman, an avid surfer who found a better way to capture photos and videos UCSD graduate Nick Woodman founded GoPro in 2004.

The San Mateo-based company is relocating its local on the waves.

Today, GoPro dominates office to a larger building in Carlsbad. — K.C. Alfred the digital camera and camcorder market. It has more than 1,000 employees worldwide. In San Diego County, GoPro employs 80 workers at an older, 13,000-square-foot office building in Cardiff, according to real estate research firm CoStar.

The move to Carlsbad would more than triple GoPro’s office space in North County — raising hopes among Carlsbad officials of significant additional jobs.

GoPro declined to comment, with a spokeswoman writing via email that the company would have more to say this fall as it prepares to move.

“It is an expansion of their current operations,” said Peter Spencer, a partner with Cruzan, which owns the Carlsbad building. “Those folks will be relocating up to Carlsbad. It’s their public relations/marketing group and a technology group that deals more with (video editing) software technology versus the camera hardware.”

GoPro went public last June at $24 per share. Its stock ended trading Wednesday at $52.96 — up 12 percent from the day before — after reporting a 52 percent year-over-year increase in first quarter earnings. Quarterly revenue surged $363.1 million — up 54 percent from a year ago.

Cruzan purchased the former San Diego International Floral Exchange warehouse in 2013 for $12.5 million. Since then, the San Diego real estate firm has been remodeling the structure — just a few blocks from the beach at 5600 Avenida Encinas — into an outdoorcentric office complex.

Called MAKE, the 175,000-square foot complex includes outdoor surf showers, fireplaces, horseshoe pits and a mini-amphitheater for outdoor meetings — as well as a fitness center and other indoor amenities.

“The space has received a lot of attention as of late, and for good reason,” said Brett Ward, managing director of commercial real estate broker DTZ, which represented Cruzan.

“It takes full advantage of the coastal location with interior work spaces that spill outside.”

Encinitas student tops in Don Diego scholarships An Encinitas student won the top scholarship from the Don Diego Scholarship Foundation recently.

Fourteen students from schools all over San Diego County shared $42,500 in funding from the foundation.

“To say this year’s applicants were impressive would be a vast understatement,” said Don Diego Chairman Paul Ecke, who led the Scholarship Selection Committee. “Despite having increased the number and monetary amount of awards, our task was formidable. We received dozens of applications and interviewed many highly qualified and deserving finalists, ultimately awarding 14 scholarships instead of the 13 originally intended.”

Topping all recipients is $10,000 4H/Spanjian Family Hannah Labrie-Smith Foundation winner Hannah Labrie-Smith of Encinitas, who graduates from Cathedral Catholic High School with a 4.29 GPA, 4H leadership/awards, compassionate community and church service, and years of successful competition in Irish dance, polo and other sports, notably track.

“I am so honored and excited to have received this double scholarship from Don Diego!” said Hannah, who was 2013 and 2014 San Diego Track Athlete of the Year. In 2014, she broke Olympic Champion Gail Devers’ 31-year San Diego record in the 300-meter hurdles. Hannah is on track to a fulfilling career as a veterinarian, and will attend prestigious Stanford University, majoring in human biology. Teacher/coach Dan Geiger, who calls Hannah a “once-in-a-lifetime type of student-athlete,” said that besides her love for animals, “Hannah’s strong performance in science leads me to believe she will have no problem accomplishing her goals.”

Eligibility was open to San Diego County high school seniors who participated in the San Diego County Fair and/or other activities associated with the Del Mar Fairgrounds. Recipients will be honored at Don Diego’s exclusive Peter Frampton and Cheap Trick dinner and concert gala on June 10 at the Fair. Tickets are at www.dondiegoscholarship.org.

American folk art treasures find breathing room at Mingei

BY LONNIE BURSTEIN HEWITT The Mingei International Museum in Balboa Park’s latest exhibition, “Self-Taught Genius,” is a tribute to three centuries of American creativity. This selection of 100-plus treasures from the American Folk Art Museum in New York is on a five-city national tour, and the Mingei is its only West Coast stop.

“Self-Taught Genius” features a range of media and styles that will knock your socks off, if you’re wearing socks. Standing before an eight-foot-tall model of the Empire State Building, meticulously crafted out of tiny, interlocking blocks of wood by an unidentified artist, one visitor exclaimed: “I can’t believe no one knows who did this!”

“The story is, it was made by an ironworker who actually worked on the building, that he made it in his New Jersey basement, but we’re not really certain,” said Stacy Hollander, the exhibit’s lead curator, who flew in for the Mingei members’ opening April 17. “We just know it was done before the antenna was added, because the piece has no antenna. And there are no nails or glue holding it together. It’s an amazing feat!”

Hollander, who started as an intern at the American Folk Art Museum 27 years ago and is now senior curator and director of exhibitions, came up with the concept for “Self-Taught Genius.”

“Self-taught doesn’t mean untaught,” she explained. “These artists are as masterful as any fine artists. And once we had the concept, the art works kind of selected themselves.”

She said the exhibit, first shown in New York and then at the Figge Art Museum in Iowa, Flag Gate by unidentified artist, circa 1876 “takes on a different kind of life in each space, since we allow each institution a lot of flexibility in how they arrange the pieces. And it’s very exciting now to see it here.”

The Folk Art Museum’s executive director, Anne-Imelda Radice, also at the Mingei opening, agreed. “I love this institution, and I think the director is one of the best in the country,” she said. “I’m on the board of trustees here, which is very unusual for a museum director, but I’m proud of it, and we hope to be doing other projects together in the future.”

The exhibit is beautifully presented, taking over almost the whole second floor. “These

Art couples Ryan Hietbrink and Christine Knoke (Mingei chief curator/director of exhibitions), and Gayle Kauihou and Dave Hampton (mid-century art curator), with a piece by Mary Smith from one of her “yard shows.” Photos by Maurice Hewitt are iconic pieces, so we gave them as much space as possible,” Mingei director Rob Sidner said. “They needed breathing room.”

He added that they borrowed extensively from the Folk Art Museum for their inaugural show in Balboa Park in 1996.

Founded in 1978 by Martha Longenecker, who developed the ceramics department at SDSU, the Mingei was originally located in University Town Center. Its name, meaning “art of the people,” was coined by one of her mentors, Japanese art historian Soetsu Yanagi, who believed in the importance of art “made by the many for the many.” In 2006, when Longenecker retired as director, Sidner, on staff since 1993, took over. He has greatly expanded the museum’s budget and collection ever since.

The Mingei now has about 120,000 visitors a year, including 8,000 schoolchildren. “In today’s culture, so focused on celebrity and what things cost, we encourage discovery, finding beauty for yourself in the things around you,” Sidner said. “We show art that integrates head, heart and hands, because that’s what we’re all trying to do, become whole human beings.”

“Self-Taught Genius: Treasures from the American Folk Art Museum” is on view through Aug. 16 at the Mingei International Museum, 1439 El Prado, Balboa Park. The museum is open 10 a.m.to 5 p.m. Tuesday-Sunday, Admission: $7-$10 (free on third Tuesdays).

Stoked with a purpose: CCA students organize board fundraiser for ReSurf

BY KAREN BILLING Canyon Crest Academy students hope to help change the world one surfer at a time, getting involved with the ReSurf Project.

CCA sophomore Kylie Bobertz, freshman Jiten Peiris, junior Elliot Cohen and senior Stephanie Sek organized a fundraising event for ReSurf, a sustainable mentorship program that teaches surfing to underprivileged children around the world. As ReSurf works with the local community to refurbish donated surfboards for at-risk youth, the foursome gave the old boards over to a talented class of CCA artists to work their magic.

The resulting 40 works of art will be on display at a fundraising event held at noon May 31 at The Melody League in Encinitas.

“We hope to connect ReSurf with the surfing community around us and help out these underprivileged kids,” said Forty reworked surfboards will be displayed May 31 Kylie.

The event will feature live music from CCA band Sad at a fundraiser at The Muffin, barbecue food and live surfboard painting by artists Melody League in Encinitas. from CCA and the community.

Some of the surfboards created that day and by the CCA art students will be auctioned off at an event in June; others will be donated to an orphanage in Baja Mexico.

The ReSurf event was the result of a project of CCA’s regional occupation program (ROP) business management class.

In the class, students learn about all aspects of running a business, work in the school café The Nest for four months and are required to form groups to start their own company.

Kylie’s group developed a fundraiser rather than a business, forming partnerships not only with ReSurf, but with the art class at school to paint the surfboards.

“Getting the class to do it was pretty easy; Ms. Jackson loved the idea,” Kylie said of the 40 eye-catching surfboards created by Angela Jackson’s Envision visual art class.

Kylie said the most challenging part of their project was coordinating the event in between their busy schedules as teenagers.

Melody League is at 1057 S. Coast Highway 101. For information, e-mail ccartistforResurf@gmail.com.

Desperate under pressure, the Dragons scored a thrilling try in the dying seconds of this overtime and secured the championship by 1 point. It is the first time in the club’s seven-year history that any team has made it to a final, and then sweetened it by coming home with its first trophy. A number of the boys have since been honored by being selected in the Regional All Star San Diego Representative side. Go Dragons!

Rugby is the fastest growing sport in the US and is attracting a growing following with its inclusion in the 2016 Olympics.

‘Radakovich: A Retrospective, Yugoslavia to Encinitas, 1939 to 1992’ Encinitas artists Svetozar and Ruth Clark Radakovich are the focus of an exhibit celebrating their paintings at the Encinitas Library Gallery now through May 31.

An opening reception for “Radakovich: A Retrospective, Yugoslavia to Encinitas, 1939 to 1992” was held May 2 at the Gallery, with viewing of a trailer for the upcoming documentary, “Forging Love and Wearing Sculpture.” A panel discussion followed with artists and art experts James Hubbell, Arline Fisch, Dave Hampton, Jean Radakovich and Francine Filsinger.

Live entertainment was provided by guitar duo Nina and Pablo Aganza.

The Radakoviches played an important role in the San Diego mid-century art community and in California’s Post-Modern Design era.

THE

POSITIVE IMPACT OF CANCER CLINICAL TRIALS Clinical trials have long been vital in studying all aspects of medicine, yet the general public may still have some uncertainty about what they incur.

Educating yourself on what clinical trials could mean for you or your family is key to making an informed decision. One group of physicians, nurses and scientists wants to spread the word that clinical trials are both safe and necessary to our nation’s continued effort against deadly diseases like cancer. cCARE, a medical oncology and hematology group with a location in Encinitas, features ďŹ ve clinical sites and a dedicated staff of medical scientists and research coordinators within its research program.

Dr. Alberto Bessudo heads the cCARE research group and was trained in oncology and hematology at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine. After graduation in 1995, he was appointed to the faculty at UCSD Cancer Center as an Assistant Professor and was active in teaching, clinical and molecular immunology research.

Dr. Edward McClay is the director of the Melanoma Program with over 30 years of experience in melanoma clinical science. He has been a leader investigator in many of the national programs that have resulted in Melanoma treatment progress. “There is a very good opportunity to get involved with these voluntary clinical trials,�

Bessudo said. “It is important to test new treatments, but also test combinations of them as well. These trials improve how we treat cancer.�

A clinical trial is a research study designed to evaluate new treatments. The use of trials is critical when researching medicines to treat cancer. All new drugs and medical devices must go through clinical trials before being approved by the FDA. Bessudo said cCARE’s clinical research programs are instrumental in reinforcing a commitment to quality patient care. “Clinical trials can prolong your life,� he said. “We have expertise, passion and backgrounds to answer any questions you may have.�

According to cCARE, clinical trials play a central role in improving treatment of medical conditions because they lead to higher standards of care. In the United States, all new cancer treatment products must meet evaluation criteria to ensure their alignment with speciďŹ c levels of safety and effectiveness.

Clinical trials are monitored by human subject committees and the FDA with patient safety in mind. They make sure patients are receiving standard of care, in addition to the trial drug hopping for additional beneďŹ t. “We have a number of clinical trials that have recently opened in breast cancer for advanced disease,â€? said Dr. Laurie Frakes, cCARE’s board certiďŹ ed physician in medical oncology. “ People in our area may think they have to travel a great distance to ďŹ nd quality clinical trails. They are available right here.â€?

Frakes’ practice focuses on breast cancer, but also includes general oncology and hematological disorders. She is involved in enrollment for upcoming trials and says the process is simple. “Some of our patients are under the care of another oncologist and referred to us for a trial,� she said. “We work together with their oncologist to bring the best care to the patient.�

Above: Artwork by Cheryl Ehlers, right, is being used to promote the Louisianathemed Gator on the Bay festival, May 7-10.

Left: “Glass Wave” by Donna Rebecca Schichler (above) of Del Mar. The Encinitas Library will feature her work in June.

Encinitas art program coordinator’s work being used to promote Gator fest ‘Liquid Light’ exhibit features local artist Gator on the Bay, San Diego’s Zydeco, Blues & Crawfish Festival, has brought in Encinitas arts program coordinator Cheryl Ehlers to brand this year’s 2015 Festival, which runs from May 7-10 in San Diego.

Peter Oliver productions selected Ehlers as the featured artist to create the artwork and promotional artwork for the four-day event, which features Louisiana music, food and more. T-shirts, posters and prints are available during the event. Visit http://www.sandiegofestival.com.

Ehlers, a Carlsbad resident, is an award-winning and published artist who likes to bring art together with people. Besides coordinating the Artbuzz1 newsletter for artists, she also co-sponsors art activities, and is the owner and art instructor of a nonprofit, The Stardust Art which works with underserved youth in the community. She is the arts program coordinator for Encinitas, where she mounts 50 exhibitions a year for local artists in three galleries.

She is also the curator for the E101 Mainstreet galleries and was named “Volunteer of the Year” for the city in 2014.

One of the engines that drives her art is the freedom to express and communicate. She believes that art at its best is creative, expressionist and emotional, and describes her art as bold and colorful. She believes that “art without emotion is not art, and within everyone, your passions should be applied to that which makes you happy.”

See her art on her website, www.cherylehlersart.com, and at http://youtu.be/ NNra_82J2J0. For more information on Gator on the Bay, www.sandiegofestival.com.

Children’s Primary Extended Care Sports Physicals Coming Soon at our after-hours Locations

Did you know that a sports physical done June through August covers your child for all sports during the following school year?

CPCMG offers sports physicals during the summer to take care of your athlete. For the busy parent, there are sports physicals available in the evening at our after hours locations. August will be here before you know it so call now and avoid the back to school rush.

A healthy partnership for kids and peace of mind for parents.

Curious drivers and pedestrians walking in downtown Encinitas watched the progress last fall as local artist Donna Rebecca Schichler painted the three transformer boxes along the sidewalk in in front of Whole Foods Market, on South Coast Highway 101.

Little by little, she transformed the utilitarian boxes into a fanciful underwater seascape for all to enjoy. Inspired by her coastal surroundings, Schichler creates artwork that celebrates the beauty of San Diego’s North County.

In June, the Encinitas Library Gallery will feature “Liquid Light,” an exclusive exhibit of Schichler’s innovative work. The exhibit includes her collection of textured art, which is inspired by patterns in nature. Schichler creates each piece using a combination of media, including digital tools, paint, photography, sea fans, leaves and recycled glass. A clear resin finish gives each work a liquid luster.

The “Liquid Light” exhibit opening reception will be from 1-4 p.m. June 6 at the Encinitas Library Gallery, 540 Cornish Drive. The free exhibit is on display through June.

A native of Rochester, N.Y., Schichler’s love for the ocean drew her to Southern California. She moved to Cardiff in 2011 to work as a 3D motion graphics designer at Multimedia Graphic Network in Cardiff. Today, she lives in Del Mar and works as an independent artist and designer.

She holds a master of fine arts degree in computer graphics design from Rochester Institute of Technology. She is a graduate of the University of Miami, where she studied digital media and studio art. Visit www.DonnaRebecca.com.

Assistance League of Rancho San Dieguito honors Supervisor Dave Roberts Dave Roberts, San Diego County District 3 Supervisor, was honored for his service to, and financial support of, the Assistance League of Ranch San Dieguito’s Operation School Bell program at the organization’s “April Affair” held April 27 at the Carlsbad Sheraton Resort and Spa. Roberts has had “a direct and positive effect on the chapter’s Operation School Bell program through his recommendation of the County Neighborhood Reinvestment Grant for approval, which provided funding for “Shopping Events” for children in Del Mar, Solana Beach, Cardiff and Encinitas.”

The Assistance League of Rancho San Dieguito is an all-volunteer organization dedicated to making a difference in the lives of children and adults affected by poverty, violence and trauma. Operation School Bell is the organization’s premier program that provides new school clothing to civilian and military children whose families are struggling financially.

This year the chapter’s philanthropic program purchased over $73,000 in new school clothes.

CCA students’ commercial wins prize, goes live Canyon Crest Academy was recognized at the recent Innovative Video in Education (iVIE) Student Film Festival, held at UltraStar Mission Valley. The 14th annual iVIE Awards, honored elementary, middle and high school students for their original video work.

New to iVIE this year was the iVIE SDCCU Redeye competition, which was held in February and featured 17 student teams from 13 San Diego County schools tasked with creating a commercial for San Diego County Credit Union in just one weekend. The winner was Canyon Crest Academy, whose winning commercial, titled “Rainy Day Fund,” aired on a recent NBC San Diego newscast. In addition, each member of the winning team won $500.

San Diego County Credit Union has been the presenting sponsor of the San Diego County Office of Education’s iVIE Student Film Festival and awards for the past six years.

states it’s illegal to trespass on the railway, but deputies typically opt for education and warnings. The deputy said citations are more likely for egregious violations, such as intoxicated people stumbling along the railway.

Resident Micah Bedrosian said he wasn’t doing anything irresponsible or dangerous when he received a ticket in January for crossing the tracks a few hundred yards north of Leucadia Boulevard.

Bedrosian said the deputy at the time told him the violation would result in a $100 to $200 ticket. He added it turned out to be $490 — and worse, a misdemeanor.

A registered nurse, he worried the violation could hurt his future career prospects, though he was able to get the ticket dismissed after going to traffic court and then criminal court.

Bedrosian added that he lives on Vulcan Avenue and he wasn’t notified that Sheriff’s deputies would be transitioning to enforcement.

“I never received a written notice or warning,” he said. “There were no postings they would be ticketing.”

J.P. St. Pierre, who owns Surfy Surfy in Leucadia, said in an email it’s frustrating that friends and neighbors who live east of the train tracks are getting tickets for crossing safely.

“They are simply trying to access the beach and coast highway businesses,” St. Pierre wrote. “Parking is difficult along the coast and it’s ridiculous to get in your car when you can take a short walk.”

He also stated that the Sheriff’s Department should practice good judgment and keep an eye out for individuals who are behaving oddly.

“It’s obvious the group crossing in wetsuits carrying surfboards are not suicidal,” he said. “The nice couple holding hands crossing the tracks are simply going to get coffee.”

He added that the city and North County Transit District “are decades behind in the necessary infrastructure pedestrians need in Leucadia.”

The city in 2013 finished an undercrossing on Santa Fe Drive to cut down on illegal railroad crossings. Yet it has been unable to secure funding for two planned undercrossings in Leucadia and another in Cardiff.

Notably, the $5.4 million El Portal Street undercrossing failed to make the cut among California Active Transportation grant applications last year.

Ed Deane, senior civil engineer with the city, said staff members will apply again in June, adding the city has a better chance this year. That’s because of the recently completed “Let’s Move, Encinitas” plan, which documents needed infrastructure for well-traveled routes throughout the city.

Deane also said the city will soon kick off a rail corridor vision plan that will review the entire corridor to identify preferred infrastructure improvements.

Most of the Encinitas tickets this year were issued in Leucadia, from Leucadia Boulevard to Andrew Avenue to the north, according to records.

Last winter, North County Transit District designated the area around Leucadia Boulevard as one of three focus spots, citing a high number of illegal crossings and train incidents there.

Since 2011, five of the nine train fatalities in Encinitas have occurred near Leucadia Boulevard, according to district records.

The most recent death in the focus area was a suicide. Exactly how many of the fatalities were accidents versus suicides couldn’t be obtained by press time.

Katie Whichard, public information officer with North County Transit District, said the agency’s code enforcement officers report trespassing instances to the Sheriff’s Department.

“Our code enforcement officers work very closely with them to be able to identify hot spots or problem areas,” Whichard said. Sheriff’s deputies have discretion over whether to issue a warning or citation, she noted.

Whichard said that illegal crossings are dangerous not only for pedestrians, but also trains. If a crosser is close, the train has to go into emergency braking mode, so there’s “a small potential for derailment,” she said.

“No illegal crossing could be considered a safe crossing,” Whichard said. “There’s always a risk that someone’s not going to hear or see a train.”

ginia Woolf?,” Oct. 29 to Nov. 29: Edward Albee’s searing saga of marital discord — the play that was so controversial in its 1962 debut that it was denied the Pulitzer Prize for being insufficiently “uplifting.”

Yael-cox directs the production, to be staged at San Diego Rep’s Lyceum Space in downtown San Diego.

“The Real Inspector Hound” and “Black Comedy,” Feb. 12 to March 20, 2016: “Hound,” Tom Stoppard’s satirical riff on the murder mystery, and “Comedy,” Peter Shaffer’s saga of an aspiring artist’s misadventures, make for a natural pairing. The two short productions will run in sequence, with the same actors appearing in both shows. Location is TBA. “Titus Andronicus,” Feb. 20 to March 20, 2016 (in rep with “The Real Inspector Hound” and “Black Comedy”): Shakespeare’s story of revenge and bloodlust should serve as quite a contrast to the two comedies with which it’ll run concurrently. Sean Yael-Cox directs. Location TBA. “Woody Guthrie’s American Song,” June 30 to July 31, 2016: The season closes with this ambitious-sounding musical celebration (a San Diego-area premiere) of the great folk singer-songwriter and his work. Location TBA. Besides the season shows, Intrepid will be running summer programs at the Encinitas Community Centre. The company recently hired a full time managing director, Lee Vincent, and a full time education manager, Brian Mackey.

WATER

continued from page 1

Aug. 1, said O’Donnell.

The district board at its May 20 meeting will also vote on whether to up the Level 2 drought status to Level 3.

On top of Level 2 restrictions like the ban on watering landscaping during the day, Level 3 would require that residents repair water leaks within 48 hours, rather than the current 72-hour rule. And it would mandate that people stop washing their cars, except at commercial carwashes that use recycled water.

As a separate measure, O’Donnell said the district is also likely to limit landscape watering this summer to two days a week. The current restriction is three days a week.

Last week, the district was planning to start a new rate study with the prospect of increasing water rates in the fall. O’Donnell said the district decided to instead put consideration of drought rates on the May 20 board agenda after discussing the matter with a rate consultant.

“We looked at the rates a little bit closer and it will be my recommendation to implement drought rates,” O’Donnell said.

The new state rules are expected to take effect May 15 and will last through at least February. Agencies that don’t comply could be fined up to $10,000 a day. However, O’Donnell said state officials have indicated they won’t resort to fines in the beginning for agencies that fall short of reduction targets.

State officials will gauge whether agencies are meeting cutbacks by using their 2013 water consumption as a baseline.

With record-low snowpack in the state, Gov. Jerry Brown issued an executive order in April to cut statewide water use by 25 percent.

Kim Thorner, general manager of the Olivenhain district, weighed in at the May 5

state water board hearing in Sacramento.

Thorner advocated for, among other things, the state water board to lower reduction targets for local water districts that have invested in alternative supplies, like the Carlsbad desalination plant. The board declined to do so, but Thorner said this could be considered down the line.

The Olivenhain district’s board on May 13 is also due to vote on higher “drought rates” that would increase bills significantly for heavy users, while largely sparing those who use little.

The average Olivenhain district resident uses 22 units of water a month, resulting in a $111.10 bill. Under the proposed drought rates, this would increase 3.2 percent to $114.64.

Also, starting sometime in the next month or two, the district will be quicker to hand out citations for those violating Level 2 restrictions.

Violators currently receive a phone call, warning letter and second letter. If still out of compliance at this point, only then do they receive a fine.

In the future, they’ll receive a single warning, but then be fined upon a second violation, Thorner said. The district’s fine schedule starts at $100 and eventually progresses to $500 for those who remain uncooperative.

Olivenhain district officials are also lobbying the state to revise the district’s target to 32 percent based on updated population figures showing more people in the area. Thorner said she’s confident that will happen, but added the district still has much work ahead of it.

“We’re preparing for a new reality,” she said.

PLAYWRIGHT

ly opposed to her husband’s impending retirement.

“Mildred Maledon is my creation,” Sickman clarifies. “She is an early master at using the media to create an image and an impression. When she travels with Maledon, the first thing she does when she goes into town is she calls on the newspaper. She makes a concerted effort to create this myth. Then, after the event is over, she’ll follow up very carefully to make sure that Maledon himself is described in the most flattering terms.”

The “Rope” score is Broadway, with hints of folk, gospel and country, including two songs sung by Mildred that aptly describe her dark aspirations.

In one song she boasts, “I’m as pleased as can be, with this life of mine/Ladies whisper and compare, but I’m the hangman’s wife — so there!”

“She’s much more of a celebrity than any of (the other ladies) will ever hope to be, so this sort of idea is conveyed in her first song,” Sickman said, stressing that, “In a musical it’s very important that the songs move the story along. They either describe a new event or fill in some background that you need to know to move forward.”

Sickman, who said he typically pays costs upfront and is reimbursed via ticket sales, is in negotiations with Debra Whitfield and Dennis Holland, the director and lead actor from the New York production of “Rope,” and hopes to bring them to San Diego for next year’s production.

His other works include “Taxi to Jannah” (Arabic for “paradise”), a play he describes as “the adventures of a Muslim taxi driver in the United States, all the people he runs into and the discrimination he faces,” which was produced Off-Broadway after Sickman submitted it to a contest and, later, at Fountain Theatre in Los Angeles.

“Space Number Nine,” his dramedy about a divorced couple who wind up vacationing at the same RV park and contemplate a romantic reconciliation, is making the rounds of RV parks in Arizona and California.

“RV parks can be quite luxurious,” Sickman said. “Some of them will have a ballroom and a stage equivalent to anything you’d find in a Hilton. It’s been performed in Lake Havasu, Casa Grande and Mesa, Arizona. We get good crowds for this thing.”

Monthly Update: Bond, enrollment, more

Superintendent Rick Schmitt regularly updates the greater San Dieguito Union High School District community through local media with a monthly update. Topics will include curriculum, facilities, budget, enrollment, safety, and other specific and special interest topics.

Today’s topics: our second Prop AA bond issuance, a HS enrollment survey, and celebrating Rick Schmitt staff.

Prop AA Second Bond Issuance This summer will see the start of our next round of major school construction projects funded by Proposition AA. Projects include demolition and reconstruction of Earl Warren Middle School, building new math and science classrooms at San Dieguito HS Academy, science classroom renovations and technology upgrades throughout Torrey Pines High School, as well as media center enhancements and other site improvements at Oak Crest Middle School. The first classroom buildings at our newest school, Pacific Trails Middle School, will also be completed over the summer to prepare for opening day this fall.

We recently issued $117 million in bonds to fund building projects for the next three years. The strength of the property values in our community and the district’s history of cautious financial management led to a credit rating upgrade for this sale. We issued only current interest bonds (no CABs) and limited the term to 25 years. This conservative strategy kept within our estimated tax rate of $25 per $100,000 of assessed value and resulted in a low payback ratio for the bonds of only 1.7 to 1, which is lower than many mortgages.

Finally, I would like to thank the Prop AA Independent Citizens Oversight Committee members who represent the community to ensure we spend bond funds cost-effectively and only on projects promised to the voters. They recently completed their annual report which will be posted online at www.sduhsd.net/ICOC following board acceptance on May 7.

High School Enrollment Our ongoing work around high school enrollment processes continues to progress. Since March, we’ve hosted six public workshops designed to educate and seek feedback from the community about enrollment processes and options. We had more than 220 K-12 parents and community members attend these workshops, which shared information about the history of high school enrollment in SDUHSD, outlined state law around school enrollment, discussed the role of demographics and community facilities districts (Mello-Roos) in school enrollment, and presented various enrollment options for feedback. Over the last two weeks, we also surveyed current eighth-grade students and families regarding the factors that influenced their decision in choosing a high school for 2015-16, as this data informs our thinking around future high school enrollment options and programs at our high schools.

Our next steps will be to survey our community about various options for enrolling students in our high schools.

We expect to send invitations to this online survey to families by mid-May. After receiving this feedback, we will compile the work of the High School Enrollment Study Group, the feedback from the public workshops, and the feedback from the surveys and present this information to our school board and the community this summer, giving the board time to review and discuss all of the information before making a decision about any changes in our practices or policy. If any changes occur, the earliest that would take

place would be the 2016-17 school year.

Celebrate Employees As superintendent of our world-class school district, it is important to me to recognize and celebrate our dedicated employees and the huge impact each and every one has on each student and their middle and high school experience.

Those experiences include academics, extra- and cocurricular activities, and school culture. Without our employees’ tireless work and ability to adapt to our changing needs, we would not be the outstanding school district we are today.

By most any measure, a good educational experience includes staff partnering with parents to prepare students for the post-high school opportunities and challenges that may lie ahead. Every member of the SDUHSD’s team is essential to delivering the high-quality education our students deserve and our San Dieguito families expect.

This includes teachers, secretaries, custodians, coaches, food services staff, network technicians, counselors, bus drivers, psychologists, administrators, campus supervisors, health techs, library techs, registrars, accountants, construction managers, and many more. SDUHSD has more than 1,000 part-time, fulltime and seasonal employees. Hopefully you will have an opportunity to thank an employee before the year ends. Our employees are grateful for the opportunity to work with your/our children. I know I speak for all our employees when I say, “It truly is a privilege to work for the San Dieguito Union High School District.”

We need the Encinitas City Council, now more than ever!

The process seems flawed, as decisions regarding new home development apparently continue to be made by the Encinitas City Council without any real concern for the current residents of Encinitas, whose lives are impacted by these proposed new developments. All in the name of increasing the tax base.

But what about our neighborhoods, and the people who have worked hard and paid their taxes to live in beautiful Encinitas? It seems to me that we need the Encinitas City Council, now more than ever, to truly represent us and come to our aid.

I have been a home owner in Encinitas for 25-plus years, and now, suddenly, we and our neighbors are in danger of losing our lovely ocean views, privacy, and property values due to a recently approved development by the Encinitas City Planning Committee (Project # 14-047, the proposed subdivision of the lot at 1401 Windsor Rd. and the development of one single-story and five two-story homes).

So unless the Encinitas City Council comes to our immediate defense and exerts some oversight on the development, those of us who live above the proposed development will have our ocean views obliterated by the second stories and rooftops of these new homes. And those who live adjacent to the development will be losing their privacy, while the current feel of the neighborhood will forever be destroyed.

There has been some discussion between the neighbors and the developer(s), who have agreed to lower the pads a foot, so the homes are not quite so obtrusive. Beyond that, our concerns seemingly have not been taken seriously by elected officials, and instead, the development proceeds, for all intents and purposes, unmodified. No real consideration has been given to potentially creative solutions to the issues raised, solutions that would allow all sides to profit, like requiring that the developer put in one-story homes, not the proposed two-story homes. There might not be quite so much profit for the developer, but plenty still, and current residents would still get to keep their views, property values and privacy.

And more important for the future of Encinitas, the Encinitas City Council would demonstrate their concern, and set precedence, for responsible growth. We’re not anti-development, just anti- bad development.

Please, Encinitas City Council, look out for the best interests of all, and not just the special interests of a few, and reconsider your approval of this subdivision as proposed.

Global warming not causing California’s drought Carbon emissions have little effect on the warming and cooling cycles that happen over the centuries. The California drought is no different: The drought is not caused by global warming, and it’s not the first drought, either. For instance, California had very bad droughts in 1862 and 1927, and this one is no different. However, its effects are amplified due to increased population and urban density, which puts a strain on our water resources.
