District declares 40 acres surplus

League champs Park projects

take step back

By MAUREEN ROBERTSON Approximately 40 acres Ramona Unified School District purchased for $1.19 million in 1999 is on the district’s surplus land list.

Three of the district’s five trustees — Rodger Dohm, Kim Lasley and Bob Stoody — supported the recommendation of the Surplus Property Advisory Committee to declare the land behind Ramona High and Olive Peirce Middle schools surplus. Two — Dawn Perfect and John Rajcic — voted present.

“I’m all for putting all property back on the tax See 40 ACRES page 6

(RPRA), which is responsible to make sure all activities meet the insurance and permit requirements of the lease, said RMWD General Manager David Barnum.

Ray Cardona, RPRA president, said the project proponents should have approached RPRA with their plans instead of the water district.

It’s just a matter of steps, he said, explaining, “all comes through us and we refer to the water district.”

Barnum said RPRA must submit insurance certificates and site designs and maps so the water district can review and ensure the projects are compliant with state and local laws.

“We can’t take action from individuals,” he said.

Proponents for three projects recommended for Park Land Dedication Ordinance (PLDO) funds have had to take a step back to go through the proper channels.

Nearly $700,000 is available in PLDO funds for recreational uses in Ramona. The county charges the park fee with residential building permits.

Three of the projects on the eight-item PLDO Priority List — an amphitheater, Ramona soccer field expansion and Girls Softball LED scoreboards — are in Ramona Community Park, which is owned by the Ramona Municipal Water District (RMWD). The water district leases the land to the Ramona Parks and Recreation Association

Ramona Sentinel (and all the newspapers in the new U-T Community News Group) will have a fresh look beginning with the March 6 issue.

Expect to receive two sections in your Sentinel — one large broadsheet “wrap” with lots more room to showcase our news, photos and advertisements, and a smaller “tab” section, “Community.”

The size changes are necessary so we can match the parameters of U-T San Diego’s press drums, which will now be printing the Ramona Sentinel.

You can be sure that all the Sentinel’s trusted features will remain — front-row coverage of public meetings, civic and social events, business and arts news, sheriff’s and fire reports, community calendars, opinion pages, high school and community sports — and, of course,

Firefighters extinguish late-night blaze that spreads from vehicle to garage Fire officials are investigating the cause of a late night blaze that started as a vehicle fire and spread to the garage at 2006 Via Rancho Dos Ninas off Dye Road on Saturday.

No injuries were reported and all of the animals were found safe, reported Cal Fire Capt. Robert Ramirez with the Ramona Fire Department.

Cal Fire/Ramona firefighters responded to the report of a residential structure fire at 10:28 p.m. On arrival, they found a vehicle on fire in front of the home.

The garage attached to the home was about three-quarters on fire, reported Ramirez.

Crews concentrated on extinguishing the garage fire to prevent spread into the main part of the house, said Ramirez.

Occupants of the home had evacuated the house before firefighters arrived but reported they had not found all of their animals — four dogs and eight cats.

Firefighters searching for the possible extension of fire into the main house located some of the missing pets in the smoke-filled home. All pets were found alive and reunited with their owners, according to the report.

Firefighters remained at the scene until 1:30 a.m. Sunday working on salvage and overhaul, noted Ramirez.

On the Agenda Thursday, Feb. 27 Coffee with Constituents hosted by San Diego County Supervisor Dianne Jacob, 8:30 a.m., Ramona Town Hall, 729 Main St. Public invited to bring questions, concerns or ideas about county government or the community.

Creelman Lane residents want road issues resolved

By KAREN BRAINARD A group of residents on Creelman Lane are asking for a curvy portion of their road to be straightened — or to be straightened out with the county as to who owns that particular piece of land.

They say that the countymaintained road curves onto private property before it reaches the San Diego Gas & Electric substation.

Dr. Alireza Falahati who bought his property three years

ago, said he believes the road cuts 30 to 40 feet deep across the width of his land.

He said his Realtor told him the day before closing that she looked at the drawing of the property and that portion appeared to be grandfathered and taken by the county. However, he said, the deed makes no mention of any land dedication to the county.

The matter has become more public because San Diego Gas & Electric plans to build a solar installation on property it owns

Valley Club Mardi Gras March 1 benefits youth scholarships, community projects San Vicente Valley Club invites the public to its Mardi Gras fundraiser on March 1 from 6 to 10 p.m.

“We’ve changed it up a little with dinner and New Orleans band at the San Vicente Resort,” said Claudia Weringa of the club.

Tickets are $45 and are available at the resort, 24157 San Vicente

Road or by calling Sharon Greene, 760-788-6960, or Russ Ann Zazas, 760-788-5571.

A silent auction is planned.

Proceeds from the evening will benefit the club’s community funding and student scholarships.

Guests may come in costume. Mardi Gras masks will be available for $10 each.

at Creelman Lane and Ashley Road. Creelman is a dirt road, and homeowners along the street are asking SDG&E or the county to pave it because construction will stir up a lot of dust and create health hazards.

Falahati, who plans to move to the property full time in June, said he has been out with his children when trucks heading to the utility’s substation at full speed “raise mountains of dust.”

“Our issue is you need to pave the road if you’re going to

use it,” he said.

His neighbor, Bob Romeo, has raised the dust and street alignment issues at recent Ramona Community Planning Group meetings. Romeo said Creelman Lane was created in the 1950s.

According to Falahati, he is not the only property owner affected by the road alignment.

The road also cuts into smaller portions of two other properties, he said.

“This is a matter of principle,” said the doctor, noting that

there is also a potential liability issue if an accident occurred on his property.

Falahati said he has consulted with an attorney who has dealt with similar issues and, after looking at his deed, said he has a case.

For now, however, Falahati, is willing to wait and see how the road issue plays out with SDG&E’s plans and the request for paving.

“If that doesn’t get anywhere then I’m going to demand they give my property back,” he said.

SENIOR CENTER DONATION— Scott Norton, Ramona Real Estate Association president, left, presents a $1,000 check to Pete Bakarich, president of the Ramona Senior Center, as senior center board members Beverly Torres, Nancy Walker and Hazel Cardwell look on. The donation represents proceeds from the real estate association’s Feb. 1 opportunity drawing ticket sales, which totaled $922.

The association rounded up the amount to $1,000.

Montecito High STAR Club makes a difference with Red Out candy grams, anti-bullying effort Next: Spring Egg Hunt with Head Start

By PIXIE SULSER “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.”

This quote by Margaret Mead could be the motto of the Montecito High School STAR Leadership Club, according to club adviser Lyn Hardy.

“The STAR Club, which stands for Support, Teamwork and Recognition, brings together students who exhibit leadership

abilities and who want to plan and implement activities and community service projects,” said Hardy.

The group’s latest project involved teaming with the American Heart Association (AHA) in an effort to spread awareness of heart disease and its prevention as well as to raise funds to help with research.

Ramona schools are no strangers in supporting the efforts of the AHA. Several elementary sites are yearly participants in the Jump Rope for Heart or the Hoops for Heart programs.

Ramona Trails Association has two presentations planned for March 5: Ramona High School’s bicycle team with coach Robert Grace, and a helmet cam video of the Grand Canyon Rim to Rim Ride. The meeting will start at 7 p.m. in Ramona Community Center, 434 Aqua Lane.

The public is welcome.

“We have lots of new and exciting things happening this year,” said Don Wendt, president of RTA. Jan and Glen Morgan, who filmed the Grand Canyon ride on horseback, will present the video.

Family memberships in RTA are $25. For more information, see RamonaTrails.org.

na’s Rotary Club regarding the project.

During the holidays, the students conducted a toy drive for Rady Children’s Hospital and even “had the joy of actually delivering over 150 toys to the hospital rather than just dropping them off or having someone else deliver the donations!”

“Additionally,” shared Hardy, “with the assistance of one of our parents, we sponsored our first Cards for Heroes project providing our students with the opportunity to make holiday cards for veterans and

active duty members. We created and mailed over 100 cards with some of the creations making it to Afghanistan.”

One of the group’s favorite activities is just around the corner. It’s the Spring Egg Hunt which they plan for Ramona Head Start students.

“This is such a fun event, not only for our students, but for the little ones as well,” said Hardy. “I am very proud of this group of young people. They have really reached out this year to think beyond themselves and to make a difference.”

take action against heart disease starting now.

The group’s fundraising efforts included selling a variety of candy grams for delivery on Valentine’s Day and selling red T-shirts to be worn on the campuswide Red Out Event on Feb. 14 to show support for maintaining a healthy heart.

Supporting the AHA is just one of the many activities the Star Club has sponsored this school year.

“Our governing board consists of seven students who meet once a week to discuss activities and/ or projects they feel our student body as a whole would find rewarding or informative,” said Hardy.

This year alone the small group organized the school’s first anti-bullying campaign which included classroom visits, encouraging the signing of an anti-bullying banner and having two STAR Club board members, Sabrina Roberts and Salvador Hernandez, speak to Ramo-

At the secondary level, the emphasis shifts to the education of others in addition to fundraising activities.

In its second year of involvement with the AHA, the MHS STAR Club designed an informational presentation to share with classes on campus.

“Heart disease isn’t just a disease of older people like many think,” shared STAR Club leader Crissy Goldsmith. “It can happen to anyone. In fact, one of our own MHS students just discovered that she has a possible heart condition. Knowing what you can do to live a healthier life is good information for everyone, no matter how young or how old.”

Goldsmith and fellow STAR Club leader Rachel Van Doren explained that, according to AHA educational materials, nearly a quarter of strokes happen to people younger than 65.

Lt. Hank Turner of the sheriff’s Ramona station and Kim Lasley talk about drug use in the community at the sheriff’s Citizens Advisory Group meeting Monday morning.

Citizens focus on drug concerns during meeting with lieutenant

By KAREN BRAINARD Drug issues in the community consumed the bulk of Lt. Hank Turner’s Citizens Advisory Group’s meeting at the sheriff’s Ramona station on Monday.

It was the first advisory meeting led by Turner, who replaced Lt. James Bovet as commander of the station at the beginning of the year.

Kim Lasley and Celeste Young, advisory group members, talked about ways to combat drug use, which Turner said will also reduce crime.

“There is a correlation between drug use and crime,” he said, adding that it leads to burglaries and thefts. “It’s a very expensive habit. You legalize it, you’re still going to have theft issues.”

Turner, who previously served on the sheriff’s Narcotics Task Force, noted that two suspected heroin dealers were among

five people arrested last week on suspicion of drug charges, and a week before a suspected methamphetamine dealer was arrested.

“We will try to stay on top of it,” he said.

According to Turner, driving under the influence of marijuana cases have exceeded driving under the influence of alcohol cases.

With spring break coming up, Lasley and Young talked about the need to educate the public on the social host ordinance, which assigns responsibility to anyone allowing minors, under age 21, to drink alcohol on their property, and could result in citation or arrest, a $1,000 or higher fine, and possible jail time.

In addition to Turner, Lasley and Young, one Ramona resident and Crime Prevention Specialist Barbara Wallace attended the meeting.

Judge denies probation, orders prison in child pornography case

By NEAL PUTNAM A Ramona man was sentenced to three years and four months in state prison after he pleaded guilty to possession of child pornography on his computer and other charges.

Randall Thomas Hook, who will turn 47 on Feb. 28, received credit for already serving 681 days in jail. Probation was denied.

Hook also pleaded guilty to felony possession of methamphetamine and residential burglary, said Deputy District Attorney C.J. Mody. He was fined $3,178.

If he works in prison, a percentage of earnings will apply toward the fine.

Also on Feb. 18, Hook was ordered to register as a sex offender after he is released on parole. He will have to register with a law enforcement agency wherever he lives.

rolls that we declare a surplus,” said Rajcic.

But, he said, “we have a much bigger problem that we’re skirting around. We have declining enrollment ...

Somewhere along the line we’re going to have to make decisions that are not popular with certain groups.”

Perfect did not say why she voted present rather then yes or no, but earlier this month she said she likes of having a buffer of undeveloped land adjacent to the schools.

The vote comes after two meetings of the 7-11 Advisory Committee that trustees authorized in December. The second meeting on Feb. 11 was a public hearing that two Ramonans attended.

Hanson Elementary Principal Chris Gunnett, a member of the school district's 7-11 committee, listens to discussion of vernal pools on school district property behind Ramona High and Olive Peirce Middle schools.

40 acres

Park projects

From page 1 “The consensus was declare the property as surplus,” Assistant Superintendent David Ostermann, who presided over the committee meetings, told trustees at their Feb. 13 meeting.

While the district goes through the state-required process before it can sell or lease the land, the committee recommended having experts knowledgeable in environmental issues and mitigation banks conduct a cursory review of the property to get a better idea of its worth.

“If it was my property, I wouldn’t sell it right now, because I think there are too many unanswered questions,” said committee member Steve Powell, developer and Wood-

crest Homes president. “What do you sell it for?”

He noted inconsistencies in an asset management study prepared for the district

by Eric Hall & Associates in November.

“There could be seven figures easily on the table in the mitigation alone,” Powell said, referring to the 17 acres Ostermann said was unusable because of vernal pools.

Those vernal pools are some of the most pristine in the county, and that could be valuable to someone needing mitigation to build elsewhere, said Powell.

Suggesting a “reconnaissance walk-through” by credentialed land use consultants on the county’s accepted list, “you may end up with, instead of $10,000 an

confirms that a project meets all requirements, it gets approval from the water board to amend the lease with RPRA. The board can amend the lease for several projects at a time, Barnum said.

On Feb. 14, Barnum reported that the district engineer reviewed and approved the plans and site for the LED scoreboards.

In November 2013, the Ramona Community Planning Group recommended the county release a portion of PLDO funds for the scoreboards

and the amphitheater, based on information from the group’s Parks and Recreation Subcommittee that the projects were “essentially funded and ready to go.”

Art Thomsen, project champion for the naturally-designed amphitheater, requested $27,500 for fencing, sod and seed. Jeff Moody, project champion for the LED scoreboards, asked for $40,000 of PLDO money.

Cardona said permits may be needed for the scoreboards and amphitheater. The amphitheater plans

will take a while to review for compliance because it is believed that Indian artifacts are near the site, said Cardona.

The third PLDO project for the park is converting a Ramona Adult Softball field to a Ramona Soccer League field. Cardona said both groups have agreed to the swap and he did not believe there would be additional requirements. That project was not considered ready for PLDO funds by the Parks and Recreation Subcommittee in November.

acre, you may end up with $250,000 an acre in environmental wetlands or vernal pools. It would be nice to know that,” said Powell Previous reports done for the district several years ago are valuable and would need updating, added Powell.

“Half of Main Street in Ramona cannot be developed because it’s got vernal pools,” he noted. “...If there was a mitigation bank that was available, I’ll bet you lunch that those landowners would pay dearly” for mitigation credits, “whether they believe in it our not,” so they could develop their property.

Looking at the asset management study, Powell said, “I don’t think the correct kind of information’s been put together and the correct kind of studies.” The study estimated the value of the nearly 40 acres at $2.2 million to $3.2 million. It estimated the value of the 17.4 acres of environmental mitigation land at $174,000. With the Ramona Terrace Estates for residents age 55 and older adjacent to the property, 200 mobile home sites could be put on the 22.18 acres deemed developable, the study said.

Powell volunteered to make a few phone calls “to see what it would be to do an initial walkover evaluation.”

Cost of the consultants could range from less than $1,000

RS

to $2,500.

Both Powell and Eric Hall & Associates recommended the district not split the land.

Developing the 22.18 acres may need mitigation the vernal pools could provide.

If the district sold the property, what would it do with the money, resident Craig Ellsworth asked at the committee’s public hearing.

If the district’s loan had not been paid off, it likely would go toward the loan, said Ostermann. The district in 2004 borrowed $25 million as a certificate of participation (COP). With interest, approximately $34 million is owed, according to district officials.

That increases to $52 million if payments continue as scheduled through 2032.

If the loan is repaid when — and if — the property sells, Ostermann said he would like to see the money go to facilities — construction or deferred maintenance.

Committee member Larry Bringham, a Ramona High School teacher, said people he has talked with about the COP and a possible bond have said, “we want to see what the district’s going to do to be more solvent ... and it keeps coming up, put the land up for sale.” Letting the community know the district may sell the property would show “we’re doing the right thing,” he said.

Bond contract worth a second look

Some other reasons for 2012 bond failure

R

amona school trustees will meet soon to take another look at a proposed contract with the firm that will work on a campaign for voter approval of a bond, likely in November.

We applaud the school board for responding to member Bob Stoody’s concerns about what a contract might mean after the election.

If Ramona voters approve a school bond, an as-yetto-be-determined debt will shift from the district’s to the community’s shoulders. That makes “after the election” specifics worth meticulous scrutiny.

As a businessman, Stoody has some experience with contracts, but, he admitted, he’s no expert. He asked that an outside firm advise the district to avoid potential pitfalls or land mines.

We believe Stoody’s concern “to make the bond livable, to make it responsible to the taxpayers” is worth the second review. He's shown before that he views public matters with a critical eye. Serving his third term on the board, he is the only member of a previous school board who voted against the district borrowing $25 million in 2004. When asked why, he said he believed the district could have achieved its goals with an $11 million loan.

That $25 million, with interest, has blossomed into $34 million if paid off today and will top $52 million if payments continue on schedule through 2032, according to the district. It’s one of the reasons the district is in fiscal hot water.

Two years ago, when trustees asked voters to approve a $66 million bond, Stoody insisted that reference to the loan — called a certificate of participation, or COP — be included clearly in the proposition on the ballot, so voters had full disclosure.

We understand the enthusiasm school officials have for a bond. They’re tired of tight budgets, and some fear a state takeover if the district can’t pay its bills.

Despite an eagerness to get started on a bond campaign, the board showed consideration for the community two weeks ago by agreeing to have two of its members — Stoody and Dawn Perfect — work with the district superintendent to refine the contract.

Guest Commentary

Don't fall for the guilt trip

By J. DYER The special school board meeting/community workshop held on Jan. 25 exposed our school district’s unwillingness to take the measures necessary to balance its budget.

Their unwillingness seems to be based upon desperation and fear.

The meeting focused on the district’s strategies regarding how it might survive its fiscal difficulties.

What should be remembered from this meeting is that, if everything the district proposed could be accomplished — closing schools, selling properties and getting their next bond measure passed — by their own admission, all of these accomplishments would not solve their long-term fiscal problems.

These strategies are only stop-gap measures to kick their self-inflicted difficulties down the road. These

school officials are operating under the assumption that ultimately you will be required to bail them out of their habitual overspending.

The district is going to throw another bond measure at us in November.

They are hiring consultants to strategize ways to manipulate us into supporting their sixth attempt to increase our property taxes.

Five times we have refused to approve more funds for their fiscally irresponsible organization. They keep spending money to fight our vote because they do not operate as if they have a finite budget. Their bureaucracy is using money it has taken from us to fight us for more of our money.

A tactic used by the district in its attempt to scare us into supporting another bond measure is the threat of a state takeover of the school district. I asked them why the taxpayers

of the community should care about which state bureaucrats run the local state schools. I specifically asked what would change if the state took over the district, since the district must teach what the state mandates them to teach.

We were told a “big” state bureaucrat would come here and be primarily focused on balancing the budget. This state bureaucrat would be able to cut jobs, close schools, and eliminate busing without the approval of a local school board. It appears our district’s biggest fear is to be forced to work within its budget. Our district bureaucrats, who have a history of being unresponsive to the voters of this community and have put the district on the brink of bankruptcy, now are fearful of a state bureaucrat who might be unresponsive to them.

The district also may have expressed an unspoken fear of the teachers union. We were told that in other state takeovers of school districts, the “big” state bureaucrat had to have armed guards protect him as he went about his business of eliminating unneeded services and the See COMMENTARY page 10

Re: “Trustees to review bond consultant’s proposed contract” (Ramona Sentinel, Feb. 20): The article states many reasons why the 2012 bond failed. However, Dr. Graeff and Isom did not mention other reasons such as: 1. There are countless voters who cannot afford to pay more property tax, 2. Many people are disgusted with the district’s mismanagement of money, 3. The bond would free up money for district staff, teacher and administrator pay and compensation increases.

Plenty of opportunity for students exists. Those students who disagree lack the willingness to perform.

Another bond is not about the students. Rather, it is for the adults and their insatiable desire for more personal income at the expense of property taxpayers.

Please explain: What was the message?

I would like to question the message of the cartoon published on the editorial page of last week’s Ramona Sentinel. For those who missed it, the cartoon featured three boys wearing “hoodies” (Trayvon Martin?) and baggy pants (thugs?). The first boy talks about ‘jacking a car (what stereotype is that?); the second mentions everyone’s right to carry a gun *no change yet in effect (recent Appeals Court ruling on California’s strict concealed weapon laws?); the third would rather walk (than be shot and killed? Jordan Davis?).

Just what is the message the cartoonist intended?

More Letters Supports Norvell in Estates election There is an upcoming election for seats on the San Diego Country Estates Board of Directors. It is a very important position, as the board sets policies for the entire San Diego Country Estates. The individuals we place in these seats should be exceptional.

That being said, it is my honor and pleasure to endorse Stephanie Norvell for a position on the San Diego Country Estates Board. I have had the opportunity to work closely with Stephanie over the course of the past two years on the Ramona H.E.A.R.T. Mural Project Board of Directors, and have found her to be in reality as passionate and capable as her reputation.

Stephanie is a long-term resident of the Country Estates and owns several successful businesses. Her commitment is making the best informed decisions for the benefit of all the residents of the San Diego Country Estates, and she is willing to listen to reasonable arguments in making these decisions.

As a resident of the San Diego Country Estates, I would feel very good about Stephanie making those decisions for me and our neighbors, and would request that all those voting in the upcoming San Diego Country Estates Board election cast their vote for Stephanie Norvell.

Norvell will benefit Estates community This is a letter of recommendation for Stephanie Norvell’s run for the board of SDCEA. I started working with Stephanie in 1994, as a lender to her brokerage office. I quickly learned that she is a very hard working person who always works in her client’s best interest.

We worked together for almost 20 years.

Stephanie is the kind of person that makes good things happen. I have no doubt that her actions will benefit our community.

Deputies arrest four on felony charges, seize heroin Deputies from the sheriff’s Ramona station arrested five Ramona residents last week, four of them suspected of felony charges, and seized 7.2 grams of heroin, worth nearly $500, along with .2 grams of methamphetamine and $580 in cash, reported Lt.

union employees providing them.

Is this why our district and board won’t work within their budget? Are they afraid to make the necessary cuts because they fear state union leaders might resort to threatening behaviors? Why else would this armed guard scenario have been brought up? Are they backing away from sound fiscal policies because they fear union intimidation?

At this special school board meeting, the district relied heavily on their own statistics to justify the actions they will be taking. However, they were not as willing to discuss statistics that made them look less than stellar. For example, the district touts its high student test scores and its good academic reputation when it pleads for higher property taxes through a bond measure. The veiled threat is that if we don’t give them more money, they won’t be able to maintain their “high” academic standards.

I went to various websites to try to verify their claim of “high” academic achievement, but I did not find that verification. When our district is compared to other school districts in

standard testing of high school reading, writing and arithmetic skills, it rates in the 50 to 60% range. With a 100% score being the best rating in these district comparisons, our district rates poorly. These same websites show that our district does not consistently meet the state’s academic goals. In a U.S. News and World Report survey of the best high schools, the Ramona district did not make the list of top 600 schools.

The district likes to blame the lower enrollment rates on the housing crisis and the lack of a big business tax base in Ramona. Maybe these dismal academic rankings are responsible for the declining enrollment.

The public school system is inefficient because of its multi-layered bureaucracies. It is ineffective because it does not focus on teaching kids the basic skills necessary for success in the private work world.

The public school system is a money wasting, social engineering driven institution that cannot be redeemed with more tax dollars.

When the local bureaucrats send someone to the door of your home or of your business

begging for money (and part of their strategy is to intrude upon your homes and businesses), be ready for them. Ask them to tell their bureaucrats to work within their budget just like you do. Tell them you will not support their sixth attempt to pass a local bond measure— five “No’s” should be enough.

Don’t fall for the guilt trip they will try to lay on you. You already give their system $8,000 to 10,000/student/year. You are taxed enough.

You have given enough. It’s time for them to begin acting like fiscally responsible public servants.

To end on a slightly different tone, I know there are some good people working in government schools. I know they are fighting the state’s progressive socialist indoctrination of the kids. If these good people can’t show how their efforts are making this district more supportive of parental rights and traditional American values, it will be very difficult to convince the opposition that a state takeover of the schools to force a balanced budget is such a bad thing.

New owner operates Warnock Drive solar installation The 7.5-megawatt solar energy project at Ramona Street and Warnock Drive, originally developed

by Sol Orchard, is now owned by Ramona Solar Equity Holdings.

While it is not unusual for a developer to sell a solar project, it is less common for the project to be

sold a second time, said Hugh Kuhn, director of operations and technology for Ramona Solar Equity Holdings.

According to Kuhn, Sol Orchard sold the project to GCL, a Chinese company with offices in San Francisco. GCL then sold the project to the investorowned Ramona Solar Equity Holdings.

Property owners in the Ramona Street and Warnock Drive area opposed the solar installation, as did the Ramona Community Planning Group. It was approved, however, by the county Board of Supervisors with Supervisor Dianne Jacob, whose district includes Ramona, the lone opposition.

Kuhn said the company spent about half a million

dollars on landscaping to help soften the visual impact of the solar panels.

The electricity generated is being sold to San Diego Gas & Electric and will be consumed in Ramona, he said.

According to Kuhn, Ramona Solar Equity Holdings will operate the plant remotely and maintenance at the site will be on a quarterly basis.

No, but you should probably buy them anyway.

I’ve owned marketbuilding.com since 1995 and have built my business — The MarketBuilding Team — around that name.

Four years ago a loyal client phoned me to report on this conversation with an unknown woman: Woman: Hello, I’m calling from themarketbuildingteam.com and would like to discuss developing your next brochure.

Client: Where’s Rob? Woman: Who’s Rob? I quickly determined that an unethical graphic artist had bought themarketbuildingteam.com and marketbuildingteam.com domains and was trying to pass herself off to my clients as my ad agency.

I was outraged — especially when my attorney reported I had few options. “You didn’t buy those names, so she did,” he advised, adding, “Just sit tight and the problem will eventually go away.”

Naturally, I contacted all my clients to inform them of the situation, and nobody fell for the ruse. A year later she relinquished both domain names and I immediately grabbed them.

My mistake was focusing on saving $25 per year. I never recognized how this meager investment could prevent potentially huge losses to my reputation and my bottom line.

Never again will I make that mistake.

Today those additional domains point to my main website. They’ve been well worth the investment.

Now what about your business? Say you own butlercorp.com and want to prevent a situation like I had.

Only there’s a wrinkle (naturally). You may have noticed that dotcom isn’t the only domain suffix anymore.

Exponential growth on the worldwide web has forced the addition of dotnet, dotgov, dotorg, and dotinfo.

In fact, counting the dotestate, dotphotography, dotguru and dotventures suffixes now going into global use, as well as the unique domains for every country, there are 263 domain suffixes to choose from today. More are coming.

As you’re researching possible business domains, you may find industry-specific names like dotmuseum, dottravel, and even the pornographic dotxxx. Just choose those making sense for your business, without going overboard. Names like bultercorp.com or bulter-corp.com should cover common misspellings.

Finally, skip butlercorp. aq unless you’re planning to open that shave ice shop in Antarctica anytime soon.

Tee, hole and event sponsorships are available for $100, and items are being sought to include in the entrant gift bags.

A special feature at the event will be the opportunity to bid on the mini-mural that Ramona artist Linda Kelly is creating on a wine barrel.

“That’s worth the (entry) fee just to be able to bid on that,” said event organizer, Stephanie Norvell.

Check in at the San Vicente Golf Course, 24157 San Vicente Road, will be at 11 a.m. for a shotgun start at 1 p.m. The $100 entry fee includes lunch, dinner, awards and auction.

“Make your own foursome or individual entries, and incomplete foursomes will be teamed,” noted Norvell.

Not a golfer?

“It’s just $25 for the dinner and the opportunity to bid on the auction items and join in the fun,” she added.

Reservations are due by March 20, but with room for just 144 people, event organizers encourage you not to delay.

For sponsorships and more information, call Norvell at 760-505-5626.

Bulldog girls basketball clinches league title

By BILL TAMBURRINO In a battle for the Valley League title, Ramona High School’s girls basketball team beat Del Norte 4945 on Feb. 21 in the Dawg House to remain undefeated in the league.

The Bulldog girls earned the No. 1 seed in CIF playoffs and were scheduled to play No. 16-seeded Bonita Vista High in the Dawg House on Tuesday night.

The Lady Dawgs entered the Del Norte game with a 9-0 league record while Del Norte had an 8-1 league record. Both teams wanted to be league champs and they played like it.

Del Norte coach Jake McNeely’s game plan was to take advantage of his players’ height and control

the paint and boards, and for 2 1/2 quarters they did just that. The duo of Natalie Davies and Caitlin Cole had 25 rebounds and 12 blocked shots.

Ramona led 13-4 after one quarter of play as the Lady Bulldogs relied on 3-point shots and medium-range jump shots to score. Del Norte made a defensive adjustment and stormed back in the second period, and trailed by 2 points in the 21-19 score at intermission.

The Nighthawks scored the first 8 points of the second half and held Ramona scoreless for the first four minutes of the third quarter. Then Katherine Mauldin took charge. The Nighthawks had doubled her in the low post so coach Ken Scheib made a suggestion

to coach Dan Marshall.

“Ken said to move Katherine to high post,” said Marshall. “That would take one or two defenders out from under the basket and allow Katherine to use her speed advantage over the taller girls and give Ramona a better chance at rebounds. For once Scheib’s idea worked,” he joked.

Ramona’s offense caught fire and tied the score at 35 going into the final eight minutes of league play.

Ramona scored the first 6 points of the final period and Kailey Hill came up with two blocked shots and two steals to go with her 6 points.

Marshall had praise for his team captain: “Christina Barrameda had her best game of the year

when it counted the most.

She came up with some big rebounds (7), steals (5), a blocked shot down the stretch and scored 16 points with two key threes.

Her leadership is one of the big keys to our team’s success.”

Mauldin finished the game with another double double against a quality team in an important game. The junior forward

finished with 15 points, 10 boards, two assists and three steals.

Kylee Scheib came up with the play of the game in the fourth quarter. She was double-teamed at the free throw line and close to getting a held ball call.

Scheib delivered a wraparound bounce pass to an uncovered Mauldin who scored a layup and prevented a 4-point swing at

Wrestling team takes second at CIF; eight wrestlers advance to Masters

By BILL TAMBURRINO Coach David Tomaino’s Valley League championship wrestling team will advance eight wrestlers to the Masters Meet on Friday and Saturday at Mission Hills High School.

The Bulldogs finished second as a team in Division III behind Brawley High School of Imperial County, so technically the Bulldogs are the best Division III team in San Diego County.

“As a team I thought we competed very well,” said Tomaino. “We did our part

in the head-to-head bouts with Brawley, pinning two of their wrestlers in the finals. We just didn’t get any help from the rest of the field. We are still hungry at this point, which is a good sign heading into the Masters.”

Four wrestlers from Ramona advanced to the championship round and three Bulldogs — Arturo Osario, Troy Jordan and Trae Rodriguez — won individual championships.

All won by pinning their opponents in the finals.

Osario pinned Acuna from Brawley in the 138

championship bout in 2:54.

“Arturo is a gamer. He was ready for CIF. He is a senior and you can tell he is making the most of every wrestling match he has left this year,”said Tomaino.

Jordan beat Baeza from Brawley in the 152 championship bout by fall in 2:30.

“Troy came in as the No. 10 seed. We knew what he is capable of and now the rest of the county knows what he is capable of,” Tomaino said.

Trae Rodriguez, at 220

pounds, pinned Ballesteros of Montgomery High School in 4:42. Rodriguez was named Most Outstanding Heavyweight wrestler in the Division III meet.

“Trae has shed some pounds and is looking more quicker and more explosive each bout. He has the correct mind set at this point. He goes out expecting to dominate each opponent,” said Tomaino.

Raul Briseno entered the finals undefeated and lost a hard-fought bout to Eckman of Mt. Carmel, 8-7, to take home a silver medal

Ramona triumphs over Steele Canyon in girls water polo playoffs

By JOE NAIMAN Ramona High girls water polo advanced to the CIF semifinals after beating Steele Canyon 7-4 in the CIF Division II quarterfinals Feb. 21.

The Bulldog girls were scheduled to face No. 1-seeded Valhalla High School Tuesday night at La Jolla High School’s Coggan Pool. The winner advances to Saturday afternoon's championship game at Coggan Pool.

“Really proud of these girls. I think they’ve come together and done good work,” said coach Donnie Williams.

Ramona had played two matches against Steele Canyon earlier in February in the San Diego Open tournament, splitting their win by one-goal final margins. The tournament matches gave the two teams familiarity with each other for the playoffs.

“The more you see people the more they know

your tendencies,” Williams said.

Ramona’s fourth seed in the Division II playoffs gave the Bulldogs a firstround bye.

“We did have a full rested squad,” said Williams.

Fifth-seeded Steele Canyon had a Feb. 19 firstround match — a 12-3 victory over Point Loma.

Holly Smith opened the scoring for the Bulldogs in the quarterfinal, although 10 seconds later the Cougars tied the score. Twenty

seconds after that Cassie Bernas scored to give Ramona a 2-1 lead with less than two minutes elapsed in the game.

“That put them kind of where we wanted them,” Williams said of regaining the lead so soon after Steele Canyon scored the tying goal.

Later in the period, Smith scored a pair of goals 30 seconds apart.

“She really had a great first quarter,” Williams said.

The first period ended with a 4-1 score.

Paulina Bernd scored the second period’s only goal, giving Ramona a 5-1 halftime lead.

“The second quarter was a lot tighter fought,” said Williams.

Steele Canyon’s goalkeeper made nine saves during the first half.

The Cougars had the initial third-period score on a five-meter penalty shot, but Bernd scored on Ramona’s next possession.

Steele Canyon scored the period’s remaining two goals, creating a 6-4 score entering the fourth quarter.

With 4 1/2 minutes remaining, Bernas scored for a 7-4 Ramona advantage.

“I could see our girls were getting a little bit tired,” Williams said.

The coach called a timeout on Ramona’s next possession. “That gave them enough rest,” he said.

Goalie Morgan Wallace

helped the Bulldogs stave off a Cougars power play.

“Morgan came up huge,” said Williams.

The rest of the game was scoreless.

“We got it down under two minutes and just worked our offense, played solid defense,” Williams said.

Wallace had four saves and shared the team lead with four steals. Smith also had four steals. Jocelyn Schwegler had an assist along with her four steals.

“Defense was solid,” Williams said. “I think we did a good job working our halfcourt. We got quality shots.”

Williams noted that the Steele Canyon goalkeeper’s performance was beyond the control of the Ramona players.

“We created the opportunities; that’s all you can ask for,” he said. “We did the work to come out on top.”

Boys basketball earns first trip to CIF since 2009-10 season

By BILL TAMBURRINO The Ramona Bulldogs closed out basketball’s regular season with a loss to Orange Glen on the road and a loss to Valley League Champion Del Norte in the Dawg House.

The Dawgs finish the regular season with a 13-12 record and a 5-5 record in league play.

The team received the No. 13 seed, earning its first trip to CIF since the 2009-2010 season, and will play No. 4 seed Foothills Christian at 7 p.m. Wednesday at Mt. Miguel High School.

Ramona lost to Orange Glen 80-64 in a game that was hard-fought in more ways than one. Colton Harris drew five fouls and was fouled out of the game.

“The Dawgs came in with a good game plan but too many defensive breakdowns and mishaps made it impossible to gain the momentum needed to get over the hump,” said coach David Reichner.

The first quarter was played fairly even but the Patriots led 20-16 after eight minutes. A disastrous second quarter cost the Dawgs the game as Orange Glen outscored Ramona 17-7 and took a 58-45 lead into the lockerroom.

The Dawgs cut the lead to 5 points in the third quarter and outscored the Pats 22-21. Marco Cobian led the Dawgs in scoring with 14 points. Scott Stransky scored 12 points and led the team with five assists. He had two 3-point goals. Blake Seits also scored in double figures.

The freshman swingman scored 10 points and led the team with three blocked shots.

Tanner “T-Bone” Williams came off the bench to lead Ramona in rebounding. Williams grabbed nine boards and scored 5 points.

The Summary will be provided to Trustor(s) and/or vested owner(s) only, pursuant to CA Civil Code Section 2923.3(c) (2).) YOU ARE IN DEFAULT UNDER A DEED OF TRUST DATED 09/12/2005. UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDING AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. NBS Default Services, LLC, as the duly appointed Trustee, under and pursuant to the power of sale contained in that certain Deed of Trust Recorded 09/27/2005 as Document No.: 2005-0832616, of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of San Diego County, California, executed by: BARRY N. SINKOFF TRUSTEE OF THE BARRY N. SINKOFF FAMILY TRUST INITIALLY CREATED MARCH 14, 2005, as Trustor, WILL SELL AT PUBLIC AUCTION TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER FOR CASH (payable in full at time of sale by cash, a cashier’s check drawn by a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association, or savings bank specified in section 5102 of the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state). All right, title and interest conveyed to and now held by it under said Deed of Trust in the property situated in said County and state, and as more fully described in the above referenced Deed of Trust. Sale Date and Time: 03/14/2014 at 10:30 AM Sale Location: At the entrance to the East County Regional Center by statue, 250 E. Main Street, El Cajon, CA 92020 The street address

and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 19002 RANCHO SANTA FE COURT, RAMONA, CA 92065 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. Said sale will be made in an “AS IS” condition, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust, with interest thereon, as provided in said note(s), advances, if any, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, estimated fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust, to-wit: $687,154.12 (Estimated). Accrued interest and additional advances, if any, will increase this figure prior to sale. It is possible that at the time of sale the opening bid may be less than the total indebtedness due. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself.

Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call, (714)730-2727 for information regarding the trustee`s sale or visit this Internet Web site, https://www. lpsasap.com/, for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, T.S.# 9434-1788. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder`s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse.

A Petition for Probate has been filed by RALPH MITTMAN in the Superior Court of California, County of San Diego.

The petition for Probate requests that RALPH MITTMAN be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.

The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.

A hearing on the petition will be held in this court as follows: Date: MAR 18, 2014 Time: 11:00 AM Dept.: PC-1.

Address of court: same as noted above.

If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.

If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California

statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor.

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

You may examine the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

How will you be remembered Ramona lost a valuable asset to the community two weeks ago. Spiritual leader, mentor and pastor to thousands of people in Ramona, Charles Youngkin, died on Feb. 12, 2014.

Pastor Charlie was remembered and celebrated by a full house at Mountain View Community Church last week. I was fortunate enough to get to know Charlie inside and outside the church and I would describe him in three words — passionate, energetic and caring.

No matter what the topic, Charlie had a zeal

and spirit about him that was unmatched. If he was talking or playing sports he was all in and ALL THERE. His passion for sports and authors such as C.S. Lewis, John Piper and some of the theological greats were dwarfed by his passion for people.

At his celebration service people rose one by one to give a testimony of how he changed their lives.

A common theme was how he made each person feel like he or she was his best friend. He cared — truly cared — about what

was going on in people’s lives.

He cared about their eternal well-being, he cared if they were hurting, and he somehow knew when to reach out and what encouraging words needed to be spoken to get one back on track and back in line with their purpose.

He cared about the hurting world and specifically Ramona and set forth direction on how Mountain View Community Church would help rectify those hurts through Worshiping, Connecting, Reaching, Growing and Serving the community.

If you had a chance to be around Charlie, you would find his energy contagious and his spirit unique. One in attendance described how he wore a hole in the carpet pacing vigorously to and fro dur-

ing his sermons. One second he was right in front of you and the next he was 50 yards away on the other side of the stage.

“The Dash,” a book by Simple Truths, is an easy must read for everyone.

The dash on your headstone — what will it stand for and how will you be remembered?

When all is said and done and you’ve seen your last sunrise, when you’ve taken your last breath, what will that thin line between your years stand for? Will it be a hollow line etched in stone, or an overflowing testament of how your life changed others? Now is the time to create your legacy and to work on that small line between the years of your birth and your death.

Pastor Charlie’s line continues on through the lives of the people he touched.

readers. In addition, she was a national presenter in Washington D.C. for the History in Schools program, and is the Department Chair in the Social Studies department.

Darrough has four daughters and one son, but none of her children play tennis.

“Some started when they were small, but they got interested in other sports,” she said.

“Both success and failure are just as important in growing in athletics and in life. One must build upon successes and learn from failures,” said Darrough. “We will work on techniques and strategies.

We will drill, have multiple reps and work on conditioning. There are no secrets or shortcuts to success.”

“We rested Kailey Hill so we needed somebody to step up in the scoring column. Chiara did in a big way!” said Marshall. “Hannah Farhat is a very good 3-point shooter but when she saw how hot Chiara was, Hannah kept feeding her the ball. That is the kind of players we have on this team. Unselfish is an understatement.”

Marshall only had eight players available for the game and they all contributed. Lauren Werhanowicz filled in the rebounding gap as she led all rebounders with 13 boards. She scored 7 points

Marshall rested Barrameda and Mauldin most of the game, but before they went to the bench Barrameda scored 3 points with two steals and Mauldin scored 8 points.

“We played most of the game with only one regular starter in the lineup and never missed a beat. We have been able to give every player on the team quality playing time and every girl has done the job when called upon,” stated Marshall.

Emily Sojourner scored 9 points and grabbed five boards. Molly McLeod scored 7 points and had five rebounds.

Farhat gave Mattern five assists and scored 4 points.

Girls soccer earns ninth seed in CIF playoffs

By JOE NAIMAN The CIF playoff selection and seeding meeting on Feb. 22 gave Ramona High School girls soccer team its first playoff match in three years.

“We’re excited to be in the playoffs,” said assistant coach Deena Vizcarra.

“We’re pretty happy about that, very happy about getting the chance to be in the Division III playoffs.”

Ramona was given the ninth seed and a firstround match Feb. 25 at Horizon Christian Academy. The game occurred after this issue went to press. The first-round winner plays Friday at Escondido Charter.

A 4-1 home win Feb. 19 against Orange Glen and a 4-0 loss Feb. 21 against Del Norte gave Ramona a final regular-season record of 7-9-2, including a 4-6 Valley League mark.

“Very sad to see them go,” Vizcarra said.

came out super strong,” Vizcarra said.

Hoertig passed to Njaa, who scored 30 seconds into the second half. Midway in the second half Njaa took a corner kick that was headed into the net by Lorentz.

“We brought it on strong,” said Vizcarra.

In the Bulldogs’ loss to Del Norte, the Nighthawks had a 1-0 halftime lead.

“We had midfield control, getting first to the ball,” Vizcarra said.

“We actually had a lot more shots in the second half. Our defense played hard,” she noted. “Del Norte’s a little bit quicker.”

Blankenbaker wins mile at Razorback Invite

By JOE NAIMAN In Dylan Blankenbaker’s first collegiate mile race, the 2012 Ramona High School graduate and current University of Oklahoma runner won the college section at the Razorback Invitational indoor meet in Fayetteville, Ark. Blankenbaker lowered his personal record at the Feb. 1 meet by seven seconds and finished the race in 4:10.64.

“I’m really happy with how I competed, and getting a new PR was definitely a plus,” he said.

Technically the Razorback Invitational race was his first actual mile race.

A mile is 1,609 meters, so the 1,600-meter high

it at our level.”

Gainey is a personal trainer at Ramona Fitness Center and has expertise in strength, conditioning and flexibility. The fitness center recently added a golf simulator and swing

analysis program, useful tools for improving a golf game.

“I remember trying out for JV golf and not doing very well. But I got the bug and got encouragement, and now I can give some

of that back,” said the new coach.

At one time when Gainey worked full time in the golf industry he had a 2 handicap.

His handicap is still in the single digits.

Since 1989 the friendly people at Richardson Recycling have enjoyed serving Ramona as a state certified redemption center, buying back all containers with the “CA CASH REFUND” on the label. As a metal scrap yard, they also buy iron and the non ferrous metals such as aluminum, copper, brass, stainless, lead and such items as auto radiators, rims, batteries and bumpers. We even buy white goods (appliance like water heaters, refrigerators, freezers, washers and dryers). For a $10 fee, your old appliance will be picked up from your driveway.

school races are known as the “metric mile” but are slightly shorter than one mile.

The race was also Blankenbaker’s first mile or 1,600-meter race since 2011. Blankenbaker had knee surgery and missed the 2012 high school track and field season. He redshirted as a collegiate freshman last year.

“This was my first time back on the track in a long time,” he said.

Blankenbaker ran in two smaller meets prior to the Razorback Invitational.

Oklahoma’s indoor track season began Jan. 18 with the Oklahoma Sooner Opener meet in Norman, Okla. Blankenbaker ran the anchor 1,600-meter portion of the distance medley relay. On Jan. 25, Blankenbaker ran the 1,000-meter race at the J.D. Martin Invitational meet in Norman. His time of 2:30.52 placed third among the eight runners.

The University of Arkansas indoor track utilizes 200-meter laps, so Blan-

kenbaker and the other runners competed for eight laps and nine meters.

“It was slow at first, but we definitely finished very fast,” he said. “I stayed with the leaders and when it came down to the last lap I took over and just pulled away.”

Blankenbaker took the lead in the final lap with about 110 meters remaining.

The meet included (in order of final men’s team points) Arkansas, Texas A&M, Florida, Oklahoma State, Oklahoma, Florida State, Tulsa, Texas, and Stanford.

“All the schools that we think of that are sports schools, track schools, they were there, so being able to come away with a victory, even in the college section, that was great. It definitely gave me a lot of confidence,” Blankenbaker said.

“It was really good to get a good effort in,” Blankenbaker said. “It’s still early in the year. I think there’s still a lot more to come.”
