Affordable senior housing eyed for 16th Street “ ”

BY KAREN BRAINARD Affordable senior housing could be coming to 16th Street — news that was well-received by the Ramona Community Planning Group. Scott Brown with Chelsea Investment Corporation of Carlsbad, an affordable housing developer specializing in senior, veteran, family and special needs housing, told planners Oct. 6 that the project they

are proposing would replace the 62-unit apartment complex previously targeted for that site. That complex, developed by Lansing Companies, was approved by the planning group in

May 2015. Brown, who noted his presentation was informational only, said they are focusing on affordable housing for ages 62 and older.

“It is an under-served population that is continuing to grow,” he said. “Typically it is also a less intensive use.” The vacant property on 16th Street next to the Ramona Lutheran Church and School is zoned for 62 units, he said, and with the senior housing they get a density bonus. He said they had not yet determined if they would SEE HOUSING, A2

SPECIAL LANDING

As students ooh and aah, Hanson Elementary Principal Chris Gunnett records the U.S. Forest Service Bell 205 A1++ firefighting helicopter as it circles the field behind the school and drops retardant before landing last Thursday morning. The helicopter's visit coincided with Fire Prevention Week and was made possible by U.S. Forest Service Superintendent Todd Gilbreth, who oversees the firefighting crew at the forest service helitack base at Ramona Airport and is married to Hanson fifth-grade teacher Cory Gilbreth. Two forest service firefighting and rescue engines and their crews drove to the school and with the two-man helicopter crew treated students to close-up looks of their vehicles and equipment. Students, who had greeted the firefighters with cheers, applause and three enthusiastic “Hanson Hurrahs,” climbed into the helicopter and trucks as the firefighters talked about the functions of each and answered questions.

Agenda items include: site plan review for cultivation facility at 736 Montecito Way and waiver requests for cultivation facility at 2338 Montecito Road; landscape plan for Vineyard Grant James small winery permit; Arco exterior improvements at 1015 Main St.; Aloha Truss new fence and landscaping; Piva Equipment additional materials lot at B and 10th streets; Kountry Kitchen addition, remodel and parking at 826 Main St.; and agricultural clearing at 1303 Okiv St. Also, a preliminary review for McDonald’s exterior improvements at 1660 Main St. Interested candidates for vacant board seat encouraged to attend. Tuesday, Oct. 18 Ramona Parks and Recreation Association, 6:30 p.m., Ramona Community Center, 434 Aqua Lane.

BY KAREN BRAINARD A small winery is in the works for Highland Valley Road that would include a hospitality center with a tasting room, event space and a commercial catering kitchen. Duane Perrin and his son, Greg, along with an architect from Sonoma were at the Ramona Community Planning Group's Oct. 6 meeting with their plans for Perrin Oak Ranch Winery, 16138 Highland Valley Road. Although the winery is in Escondido it is within the Ramona community planning area. Architect Bennett Martin said the nearest cross street is Starvation Mountain Road. The project would include an

approximate 25,000-square-foot production facility, a 5,000-square-foot partially-covered crush pad, tank storage, a laboratory and a cave. In addition to a tasting room and kitchen, the approximate 12-000-square-foot hospitality center would offer retail sales and office space. A 35.4-acre vineyard is also proposed with the entire project on four lots that total 249 acres. The property already has about 20 acres of vineyards, noted the architect. Martin said from Highland Valley Road drivers would be able to see the property and vineyards but not the tasting room. The proposed hospitality center will be built at the top of a

FROM HOUSING, A1 take the density bonus. “If we did, the maximum we would look for is 18 units to make it 80,” he said. Brown said they are partnering with Serving Seniors, a San Diego nonprofit organization. Noting that they are in the early stages, Brown said he would come back to the planning group with a redesign for smaller units and site plan with more outdoor space and gardens. Planner Scotty Ensign, the group’s representative to the Ramona Design Review Board, asked if the architecture would be the same as what Lansing Companies had created. That architecture reflected a Monterey-style theme. Brown said the current design is not very

ridge, he said. "The winery itself is actually going to be built into the hill, so for the majority of the winery it will pretty much be one story unless you're looking right at the front of it,” he said. Planners wondered about outdoor events and potential sound issues from music. Martin said they are requesting the ability to have weddings on site, but what is allowed outdoors depends on the administrative permit. He added that they are aware of noise concerns. Planners unanimously approved the small winery project. Three members were absent: Eb Hogervorst, Paul

senior-friendly, but they could keep the architecture within the same flavor if that was requested. “We are happy to work with you,” he said. According to Brown, the housing would have a senior center but it would not be open to the community. “This is desperately needed in Ramona,” said Donna Myers. As to who would apply for the affordable senior housing, Brown said typically it would be those with monthly incomes of $450 to $750. “I’m definitely for a change, even if it does result in a few more units. It’s an overall positive,” said planner Torry Brean. Planning group member Richard Tomlinson said he is familiar with Chelsea Investment’s work and praised some of their projects. 1st Place Winner!

Stykel and Elio Noyas. Also on the agenda related to wineries was a request for an administrative permit to grade/clear farmland for vineyard development at Gualtieri Family Vineyard, 1123 East Old Julian Highway. The property owner was not at the meeting but Ian Vaux, owner of neighboring Turtle Rock Ridge Vineyard Winery, said he had advised the owner that grading could cause erosion and instead recommended a grid of holes for planting the vineyards. Since the owner was not present, planners voted to defer the agenda item until next month’s meeting.

FROM PLANES, A1 Smokey Bear will greet visitors, and a 25-foot static cold-air Smokey Bear balloon will be set up for the day. Among other festivities will be a vintage car show, live country music from Del Rio, face painting, balloon making, opportunity drawing, and the opportunity to visit the flight schools, businesses and aviation organizations at the airport. Food will include a pancake breakfast, Mexican fiesta lunch, kettle corn and other snacks and refreshments. Free Young Eagle flights for ages 8 to 17 will be offered, and adults will be charged a fee to take airplane rides. Albertsons, Dunkin’ Donuts, Kahoots, Pacific Executive Aviation, RAE An Automotive Service Co., Sears, Starbucks and the U.S. Forest Service are among event sponsors.

Judge orders ballot changes for Measure B City News Service—The Lilac Hills Ranch development in Valley Center that goes before San Diego County voters in November as Measure B had its ballot arguments slightly changed by a Superior Court judge's ruling. Measure B would allow Accretive Investments to move forward with its proposed development, which would place more than 1,700 homes and 90,000 square feet of commercial space on agricultural land that is currently zoned to hold 110 new homes and no commercial space. Attorneys for the developer wanted language by opponents modified in about two dozen instances, but the judge ruled in their favor in only about half of them. Opponents had wanted to say in their statement that the developer would not have to build a school, but Accretive Investment has already entered into an agreement to build one as part of the project. Opponents wanted to say that the development was in violation of the county's general plan. But the wording was changed to “inconsistent” with

the general plan. “The court supported our concerns about Measure B: It is inconsistent with the general plan, it will not provide affordable housing, and the developer's contributions to address known traffic impacts are a drop in the bucket compared to what it will cost taxpayers to keep traffic flowing,” James Gordon of the No on B campaign said. “San Diego voters are committed to defeating this ill-conceived measure.” The project would place a town roughly the size of Del Mar in a rural area that currently lacks roads, water, sewers and emergency services to support a population of this size, according to opponents. The county's analysis of Measure B indicated that the project would add more than 19,000 daily car trips to regional roads, freeways and highways. Judge Eddie C. Sturgeon issued his ruling on the accuracy of ballot arguments submitted against Measure B on the eve of the registrar of voters deadline for ballot statements.

Planners stick with medical pot recommendations BY KAREN BRAINARD Ramona Community Planning Group did not change its recommended amendments to the county's medical marijuana ordinance, approved by an 8-3 vote Sept. 1, as a motion to reconsider them at last Thursday's meeting failed to drum up enough support. Planners spent about 35 minutes at the Oct. 6 meeting discussing whether new information had been presented that would allow a reconsideration of the Sept. 1 motion with Chair Jim Piva and planner Jim Cooper at odds on the issue. Piva said the threshold for a reconsideration is that there must be new information that pertains to the motion. Cooper said he contacted the county’s legal counsel who advises planning groups and she told him that to take a reconsideration vote additional new information had to be presented that was not the same as what was discussed at the planning group’s Sept. 28 special meeting on dispensaries. At that meeting the owners of three Ramona dispensaries — one licensed and operating and two ready to open — presented a compromise to try to alleviate community

concerns. They agreed to a maximum of two dispensaries in Ramona and to work with schools to educate youth about the dangers of marijuana, and proposed the minimum age to purchase be raised to 21 in the county — state law’s minimum purchase age is 18 — and restrict the number of dispensaries per supervisorial district to four. With that information considered new at the Sept. 28 special meeting and nine of the 15 planning group members attending, a motion was made to reconsider the vote on ordinance amendments. That vote failed 7-2, one vote short of passing. Piva said at the Oct. 6 meeting that not all members had heard that new information and gave the dispensary owners a chance to speak. Ren Bowden, owner of the yet-to-open dispensary at 1210 Olive St., talked about their proposal to raise the purchasing age limit to 21. “Since we’ve been here last, we’ve actually confirmed with a lawyer…that this is a possibility, it is legal and that we’ve got a clear cut path on how this is accomplished,” he said. Although Piva pointed to that as new information, Cooper disagreed, saying, “I’ve heard no new

information at this meeting that was not at the special meeting.” Cooper said the planners were only asked to consider the county’s options for ordinance amendments. “We can agree to disagree,” said Piva. He said they can add comments in their recommendation to the county. The planners had recommended the following regulations for dispensaries: 1) Require separation buffer from residential use rather than residential zone; 2) Increase sensitive land use buffer from 1,000 feet to one mile; 3) Requirement for a major use permit to be obtained prior to siting a medical marijuana collective facility; 4) Limit the number of medical marijuana collective facilities per supervisorial district; and 5) Strongly support an amortization clause for current and future facilities. Piva asked for a motion to reconsider the vote on amendment recommendations. After a pause, Scotty Ensign made the motion, seconded by Piva. The vote failed 6-6 with Cooper, Torry Brean, Donna Myers, David Ross, Rick Terrazas and Richard Tomlinson opposed. Absent were Paul Stykel, Elio Noyas and Eb Hogervorst.

OPINION

www.ramonasentinel.com

OUR READERS WRITE Proud of team, salute to parents I wanted to recognize the Guest Commentary written by Kim Lasley in the Oct. 6 issue. I am so glad that she wrote this piece, mostly because it reflects the values that many young people support even though this is not always being reflected in the media. While I am very proud of the young men on the Ramona High School football team that represented themselves well by respecting our country, I must also salute the parents who have raised these young men. Very pleased to be part of the Ramona community. Catherine Hallett Ramona

Change is needed on the water board This coming election there are three seats up for election on our five-member board. Divisions 1, 3 and 5 will be on the ballot. Outgoing board member Darrell Beck is not seeking re-election, and coming in unopposed in Division 1 will be Jeff Lawler. Jeff I see as a positive move towards a board that can run the district rather a district manager running the board. He brings a wealth of knowledge and business experience. I have been opposed to several of the last rounds of both water and sewer rate increases as well as our paramedic and ambulance rate increase. Not that some rate increases weren’t possibly needed, but how the district arrived at justifying the amounts. What we see from time to time is a board that runs the district, or presently a manager that runs the board. It’s time that we take control again, and vote in a board for the ratepayers. In Division 3 George Foote will also not be running for another term. There are three in the field for this seat, and in Division 5 the present board chair will be facing a single challenger. The fact that the board, in particular the district manager, threw a conflict of interest issue on the table is absurd. The present power is worried that we the people might actually regain some. With seats up for election in both divisions 3 and 5, and the candidates running happen to serve on the San Diego Country Estates HOA board, so what? Yes, Darrell Beck, we will be facing the challenges of both the Montecito Ranch project and Cal Fire. I see this as a management issue. And thank you for your service on the water board. I welcome Jeff Lawler, and urge your support in electing proven community leaders. Let’s get back to reason in management, and elect a board that works for all of us. Rex Gammon Ramona

GUEST COMMENTARY

Failing grades should concern parents Props. 51 and 55 are not the answer BY J. DYER As reported in the Sept. 29 Sentinel, the results of the 2016 California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP) shows that the public school system continues to fail in its primary mission. This failure results from a lack of focus on essential academics. The progressive socialists who run the government schools excel in their infatuation with moral relativism, global citizenship, self-esteem, socialism, radical environmentalism, and bathroom choice. Many students have picked up the left’s envy economics and believe that the top 10 percent of taxpayers, the “rich” who pay 70 percent of our tax burden, don’t pay their fair share. They have been led to believe that socialism works despite the fact that it is has failed miserably wherever elitists have scammed or forced their populations to suffer its consequences. Compliance seems to be valued more than accomplishment as students are flattered for politically correct thinking while their poor performance in basic academic subjects is displayed in the latest Common Core testing debacle. Progressives will probably address this year’s low test scores by manipulating testing documents or “teaching to the test” so next year the appearance of improvement can be shown. If these tactics fail, they will rebrand their social engineering with another lofty sounding

program with the stale, empty promise that their latest bureaucratic empire-building scam is really all about “the children.” Teachers and administrators suffer few consequences for poorly serving their students. Regardless of student performance on this latest government experiment in leftist education, teacher compensation is protected by their strong unions. To help anesthetize parents and students to the government school system’s dismal performance, the system has developed elaborate distractions to mask their lack of accomplishment. Attention will be drawn away from this latest scandalous academic performance by pom-pom girls and Friday night football parties. How about putting that Bulldog enthusiasm toward academic accomplishment where it will benefit all students? For the past year at the Ramona School Board meetings, teachers and administrators have been talking up the latest experimental programs forced on students by state and federal governments. One cheerleader for the school system always emphasizes how enthused and positive everyone is as RUSD employees take on the latest wasteful social engineering projects — as if enthusiasm is equivalent to meaningful accomplishment. A few parents have expressed concerns about these programs, but I have never seen much follow-up addressing these concerns. The government has carefully structured school board meetings so that very little meaningful discussion occurs between the public, parents, and school officials.

FROM DYER, A4

Town Hall said to be haunted for three days

is not receiving enough money to succeed. True to form, this November in Propositions 51 and 55, the progressive socialists are asking again for billions of dollars in tax increases to prop up their misguided and misdirected programs. Giving more money to a corrupt, leftist, morally relativistic state bureaucracy is not a wise move. Ramona is fortunate in that its school board is better than most. They attempt to keep RUSD accountable to taxpayers by questioning the onslaught of spending proposed by teachers and administrators. Due to the nature of our community, I am sure some teachers attempt to mitigate against the state’s socialistic and humanistic propaganda. However, their combined efforts are not enough to change the system’s destructive influence on young minds. Too many parents think it is the government’s job to educate their children when, in fact, it is the parents’ job to see that their children are properly educated. The government is failing your children. It is experimenting with them. While the government tries to get their indoctrination formula just right, many of your kids are being passed from grade to grade without learning the appropriate skills in math, reading, and writing. So, public school parents, how long are you going to keep your kids in a system that is more interested in social experimentation than in effectively teaching the ethics and skills your kids need for stability and success in the world after grade school? While government school teachers and administrators are paid well to do the governments bidding, your children are being cheated out of a more useable, profitable education. J. Dyer is a Ramona resident. S T A T E

Pumpkin patch the start of new ag venture Great Ramona Pumpkin Patch open daily

KAREN BRAINARD In just 90 days, a Ramona couple has planted the seeds for an agricultural venture that has already sprouted a pumpkin patch, petting zoo, rows of vegetables and a cornfield, and is tapped to have a winery and tasting room, children’s play area, and u-pick produce. For the fall season at the farm at 18052 Highland Valley Road, Darrell and Catalina Turner have opened the Great Ramona Pumpkin Patch, where families can buy a pumpkin, choosing from such varieties as big moose, porcelain doll, knucklehead, polar bear, and a gray-blue type. While there are many different sizes, Darrell said he probably has about a dozen 125-pounders. While there, children can visit the petting zoo where friendly goats and chickens greet visitors and keep company with a miniature horse. Carrots growing in a nearby field can be pulled to feed the animals, said the Turners. The couple, who has two children, 5-year-old Sam and 3-year-old Sophia, are making the

venture kid-friendly. “They want to come and work here with dad every day,” Catalina said. Besides visiting with the animals, the children can play in a corn box that is similar to a wood sandbox but is filled with big kernels of dried corn. In the works for the ag venture is a kids’ town with playhouses. The couple said they have a mini firehouse and American Girls-themed playhouse scheduled to come, and plan to get three or four more playhouses. “So it will be a little town over there,” Darrell said, pointing to an area near the petting zoo where he plans to plant grass. They also want the farm to appeal to adults, and that can be served by a wine tasting room and the opportunity to buy produce, noted Darrell. “The idea is eventually people can buy a bottle of wine and produce and kids can play,” he said. The 23-acre property that already had grapevines growing on it was purchased by Andy Milonis, an investor who knew Darrell and asked him if he was interested in farming it. “Didn’t take much convincing,” said Darrell.

KAREN BRAINARD

Darrell and Catalina Turner with their children, Sophia and Sam, enjoy an afternoon at the farm. A specialty produce distributor, Darrell said he has farming experience and had thought about having a place where people could harvest vegetables. He plans to grow a variety of vegetables, including ones that grow in different colors, such as their carrots which come in yellow, purple and orange. For children who are picky about vegetables, seeing the different colors and pulling them out of the ground or picking them off a plant could make them more likely to try them, said Catalina. The Turners are also ready to make their first batch of wine. Among the varietals on the farm are Petite Syrah, Cabernet Franc, Sangiovese,

and Barbera. Helping him, Darrell said, is his neighbor, Alfredo Gallone from Principe di Tricase Winery. “Everybody I’ve met in this (wine) industry is very nice,” said Darrell. The red metal barn on the property will serve as a tasting room, he said. With the Santa Maria Creek running through the property, the Turners are considering calling the venture Santa Maria Creek Farm and Vineyards, and they have plans to do something special for the Christmas season. The pumpkin patch is open daily from 9 a.m. to sunset. For more information, see The Great Ramona Pumpkin Patch on Facebook.

Great ShakeOut drill Oct. 20, 10:20 a.m. The Great ShakeOut earthquake drill, held each year on the third Thursday of October, will take place on Oct. 20 at 10:20 a.m. Participants take part in the mass earthquake drill wherever they are: at home, work, school or in the community. The drill can also be planned for any day and time of the year, said Yvette Urrea Moe with the County of San Diego Communications Office. The main point is to help families, individuals and organizations prepare to survive. A swarm of seismic activity late last month on the southernmost end of the San Andreas Fault had scientists on alert for

a larger quake. Fortunately, the threat did not take form, but it was a reminder that this is earthquake country and a rupture on a fault line is unpredictable, noted Moe. The best way to survive and reduce your chances for injury, should a significant earthquake rattle the region, is to know what to do before an earthquake strikes. Learn the key steps to take: Drop, Cover and Hold On, and practice at least once a year as part of the Great California ShakeOut drill so the reaction becomes automatic. A quick, practiced response can help in the stressful and frightening seconds after a quake hits.

Residents, businesses, schools and other organizations can participate by going to the ShakeOut.org website and registering. So far, 9.4 million people have registered in California and more than 870,600 have registered in San Diego County. During an earthquake, the most important thing to do is to protect your head from items that might fall in the shaking. Drop, Cover and Hold On under a sturdy table or desk. If you are not near a table or desk, drop to the ground and move away from any hanging fixtures, windows, glass or furniture that could topple over, and cover your head with your hands.

Check your home for hazards, such as items that could fall from above. The goal is to secure breakables with wax or putty or rearrange them on a lower shelf; and to secure tall bookcases, televisions, wall art, or hanging mirrors with straps or special hanging hardware to prevent them from falling. All of this equipment can be found at most home improvement stores. Before an earthquake, create a personalized family disaster plan and emergency kit. Be sure to consider medications and special dietary needs for family members such as seniors, infants and pets, when creating the kit. To learn more about how to prepare for an earthquake, visit ReadySanDiego.org or ListoSanDiego.org and click on the earthquake symbol, or visit ShakeOut.org.

Held under the lights in Bulldog Stadium Wednesday night, Oct. 5, the event was attended by families of the cadets and presided over by Senior Naval Science (NS) Instructor Cmdr. Brad Davis and Naval Science Instructor Chief Petty Officer Bob Richardson. “Our Bulldog program has a proud tradition of being recognized as an Area 11

distinguished unit,” Davis said. “This honor is reserved for only the top 30 percent of the 56 Navy high schools in Southern California and Arizona.” The cadets, he said, have had the title for six consecutive years with academic honors, adding that is no easy feat. He invited Ramona High Principal Dr. Rowena Mak to present the 2015-16 Distinguished Unit with Academic Honors Citation to the NS-4 cadets. Leading the Ramona High unit this year is Cadet Jacob Powers as commanding officer, Cadet Alaina Sill as executive officer, Cadet Liseth Salinas as command master chief, and Cadet Christopher Murgia as operations officer. All are seniors.

Cadet Jayme Lasley served as color guard commander for the ceremony. This year’s 120 cadets will compete in a variety of academic, drill, athletic, volunteer support and nautical competitions throughout Southern California, Davis said. In the first event of the 2016-17 school year, the six Sail Academy graduates dominated in the Poseidon Nautical Challenge in Long Beach and finished first overall. On Sept. 10, at Neptune “Day in the Bay” Olympics in Coronado, “our team swam, rowed and smiled all the way to first place overall,” said Davis. A few weeks later, Ramona High’s unit

hosted its first mini-boot camp, training 145 first-year cadets from five area NJROTC schools. The unit’s marksmanship team, captained by Cadet Nichole Lewis finished first overall out of five teams at an air rifle competition and qualified for Area 11 state championships. Serving as guest speaker for the event was the Honorable Timothy Walsh, a San Diego Superior Court judge, who served over 20 years of combined active and reserve military service as a supply corps officer in the Navy and retired in 2008 with the rank of commander. Walsh talked about three words that he told cadets would serve them well: honor, courage and commitment.

Bulldogs score league win on road

Dawgs lose league opener in final second

Team faces Mt. Carmel at home Friday BY JOE NAIMAN The first Valley League win of the 2016 season and the first road victory of the year for Ramona High School's football team was a 35-21 triumph against Westview on Friday. The result gave Ramona a 1-2 Valley League record and a 2-4 overall season mark. "It was a good team win," said head coach Damon Baldwin. The game was the first for Ramona in two weeks. The Bulldogs' homecoming contest Sept. 24 ended in a 28-20 loss to Vista, and the team had a bye Oct. 1. "The Vista game was disappointing," Baldwin said. "They moved the ball quite well. Our defense had a hard time getting off the field." The week off allowed Baldwin and his assistant coaches to focus on what would make the difference between the loss against Vista and the victory at Westview.

"We're working on fundamentals," Baldwin said. "We just made less mistakes in the game that we won." The week off also allowed for the return of quarterback Casey Buggeln, who left the game against Pt. Loma Sept. 2 with an ankle injury. Most of Buggeln's action at Westview involved handing the ball off to the Bulldogs' running backs.

"The flow of the game dictated trying to control the clock a little bit," Baldwin said. Buggeln completed passes of 36, 10 and 4 yards. The Bulldogs rushed 39 times for 191 yards and five touchdowns.

BY JOE NAIMAN A San Pasqual goal in the final second of the fourth period gave the Golden Eagles a 7-6 victory over Ramona in the Bulldogs' Valley League opener Saturday in the Mt. Carmel High School pool. "Tough loss," said Ramona coach Donnie Williams. Although San Pasqual is in the Escondido Union High School District, the Mt. Carmel pool is no farther from the school than Escondido municipal aquatics centers and the water polo program received a favorable rental rate from the Poway Unified School District. The game was the third in a row for Ramona at a Poway district pool and the

second consecutive contest for the Bulldogs at Mt. Carmel. Ramona's match at Del Norte ended as an 8-3 Nighthawks victory on Sept. 26. "We just really struggled with the big pool," Williams said. "We do a lot more swimming, and I think we get a little tired." Del Norte only led by a 2-0 margin after the first period but had advantages of 5-1 at halftime and 8-1 after three quarters. "It was not one of our stronger performances," Williams said. A 10-5 victory over Mt. Carmel in the Sept. 28 game was a better showing for Ramona, whose leads included a SEE DAWGS, A16

the Internet on the go. However, some activities could put your security at risk since not all hotspots offer a secure connection.

As more and more people use WiFi hotspots to stay connected, it’s important to know the basics of how to safely connect to a hotspot.

What can I do to protect my information? • Avoid tasks such as paying bills, accessing your bank information, and using your credit card online when using a public hotspot.

What is a WiFi hotspot? A WiFi hotspot is an Internet access point that allows you to connect to the Internet wirelessly through your mobile device. How does a WiFi hotspot work? A wireless access point communicates with computers or mobile devices using radio signals. The access point is connected to the Internet and usually connected to a router or server. Most current mobile devices will recognize wireless networks that you can connect to. Should I be concerned about my online security when connected to a WiFi hotspot? There are many advantages to connecting to WiFi hotspots, including saving money on your mobile data plan, and accessing

The name, signal strength and security type will display. WPA2, WPA and WEP are three types of secured connections. Others will say ‘unsecured.’ Once connected, be sure to select ‘Public network’ when prompted to select a network location. This will block some common routes for potential hackers. But, remember that even password-protected WiFi hotspots are not as secure as your home network.

• Opt not to save passwords, especially when it comes to your financial accounts such as credit cards and bank accounts. Cox tech installs Cox WiFi hotspots throughout San Diego County.

• Update your device when prompted. Often, these contain security updates to keep your device protected.

How do I know if a WiFi hotspot has a secure connection? Examples of secure connections include hotspotsthatrequireapasswordbeforeyou can connect.Other security settings may be seen by hovering your mouse over each WiFi connection in your WiFi settings.

• Verify that you are connecting to a legitimate connection. For example, Cox enabled WiFi hotspots are named ‘Cox WiFi’ or ‘CableWiFi.’ In other instances, ask an employee the name of the business or store hotspot before connecting.

How do I connect to a WiFi hotspot? Depending on your mobile device settings, your phone may prompt you when wireless networks are available. WiFi connections can be found in the network settings on your mobile device. Often times, coffee shops, restaurants, parks and other public places will provide WiFi hotspots for customers, and may require a password and accepting a terms of use agreement before you connect. To help its Internet customers stay connected with their world wherever they are, Cox Communications has been building WiFi hotspots in the communities it serves. In San Diego, Cox Internet customers have free access to more than 1,000 hotspots countywide, including in Balboa Park and downtown San Diego. Cox Internet customers also have free access to more than half a million hotspots nationwide through CableWiFi. Just find ‘Cox WiFi’ or ‘CableWiFi’ in your WiFi settings. Non Cox customers can access the hotspots through a free one-hour trial. To find a Cox WiFi hotspot, visit www.cox.com/hotspots.

Girls ninth at Southern California Invite

Bulldog spikers win first three league matches

BY JOE NAIMAN Ramona High School's girls placed ninth among 20 Division I teams at Southern California Running Center Invitational cross-country meet at Guajome park on Saturday. Three of the eight schools that finished ahead of the Bulldogs are not in the CIF San Diego Section. "I was pretty happy with their performance," said Ramona head coach Sherri Edwards. The top three runners of each school are in one race, the fourth and fifth runners are in another race, and the sixth and seventh runners compete against each other. The Southern California Running Center Invitational also has novice and junior varsity races.

All races are run on a 5,000-meter (3.1-mile) course. "It's a good race so I can compare everybody's time," Edwards said. Senior Gwen Gibson was beaten for the first time in six races this season. Gibson finished fourth in the race with the top three runners from each school. Chandler (Arizona) High School won the meet as a team and Chandler sophomore Morgan Foster won the premier race with a time of 17:58. La Costa Canyon junior McKenna Brown finished second at 18:08, Carlsbad sophomore Hannah Hartwell took third place for her 18:18 performance, and Gibson had a time of 18:20.

Coach finds team in rebuilding stage Ramona High School girls golf is experiencing a rebuilding year, finds coach Michael Gainey. The team’s record stood at 0-10-1 before its two last regular season matches this week, Oct. 10 against Escondido at Castle Creek Golf Course and Oct. 13 against Fallbrook at home at San Vicente Golf Course. The team tied Valley Center at Woods Valley Golf Course on Oct. 4. Experienced player senior Kaley Glotfelty

medaled twice during the season, he said, but an injury caused her to miss a few matches. She still has a chance at competing individually in the California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) San Diego section championships, he said. The championships are scheduled for the end of this month. Gainey said many of the new players on the team are also pretty new to the game. “We have a lot of interest in the game which is good,” he said.

CELEBRATING 40 YEARS!

BY JOE NAIMAN The first three Valley League matches of 2016 for Ramona High School's girls volleyball team were all victories. The Bulldogs followed a Sept. 27 home win over San Pasqual with road victories Sept. 29 at Valley Center and Oct. 5 at Escondido. Although Ramona prevailed by 25-7, 25-16 and 25-18 scores against San Pasqual, who will host the Bulldogs Thursday, Ramona had a significant loss during the contest. Junior opposite hitter Amanda Donais left the match with a knee injury that is expected to be season-ending for her. "Even though we won our home opener with flying colors, it was a very bittersweet victory," said coach Connie Halfaker. The closer games after the first set reflect the adjustment of playing without Donais. "We were scrambling with our lineup, so we had people in different places," Halfaker said. Outside hitter Karina

Martinez had not yet returned from her injury, and she was unavailable for the match at Valley Center. During the first game against the Jaguars, outside hitter McKenna Marshall twisted her ankle, so she did not play in the other two games. "We were playing with quite a different lineup," Halfaker said. "Everyone pulled together to play in spite of the newness of the rotation." The sets ended as 25-10, 25-17 and 25-11 Ramona victories. Marshall did not play at Escondido, but Martinez returned for that match. "She did a real nice job," Halfaker said. Ramona followed a pair of 25-21 victories over the Cougars with a 25-16 triumph to conclude the match. Half of the Bulldogs' losses for the first seven weeks of 2016 season were handed to Ramona during the Oct. 7-8 Nike California Challenge tournament sponsored by Torrey Pines High School and

played at Alliant University. "It's one of the premier tournaments in the state," Halfaker said. When the tournament began, Santa Margarita High School in Rancho Santa Margarita was the 10th-ranked team in the nation and Mater Dei High School in Orange County was the top-ranked team in the nation. Ramona would lose to both teams during the tournament, although Halfaker noted that the competition at that level will likely benefit Ramona during the CIF playoffs. Santa Margarita and Ramona began pool play against each other. The Eagles prevailed by a 25-6 score in the first set. The Eagles required a 26-24 overscore to capture the second game. "We matched up well," Halfaker said. Pool play for Ramona continued with a 25-17, 30-28 triumph against Del Norte. "It was a real nice win for us," SEE BULLDOGS, A16

6-1 halftime cushion and a 9-2 advantage after three periods. Cooper Smith and Matt Wallace each scored three goals for Ramona. The two Ramona goalkeepers combined for six saves with Tanner Michaelis stopping four shots and Josh Ferry preventing two potential Mt. Carmel goals. Ramona scored first in the game against San Pasqual and also had a 2-1 lead before a Golden Eagles goal created a 2-2 score at the end of the first quarter. The Bulldogs scored the first goal of the second period, but San Pasqual had the other two goals that quarter and held a 4-3 lead when the halftime buzzer sounded. The Bulldogs turned that deficit into a 6-4 lead entering the final period. "We actually had a really nice third quarter," Williams said. San Pasqual had all three fourth-period scores. "It was a tough-played game. Both teams played really well," Williams said. "We had a lot of shots going both ways." The Bulldogs travel to the Clairemont area of San Diego Friday for a non-league game against Clairemont High School.

Halfaker said. "The girls played very well, fought really hard." The Bulldogs concluded pool play and their Oct. 7 matches with a 25-13, 25-9 victory over Laguna Hills High School. "Our tough serving made it difficult for them," Halfaker said. "We were pretty offensively dominating them as well." The 2-1 record in pool play gave Ramona second place among the pool's teams, behind Santa Margarita. Ramona's pool position gave the Bulldogs an Oct. 8 seeding match against Mater Dei.

Carrie met Ron in 1984 and they married on June 25, 2002. She worked at Dudley’s Bakery in Santa Ysabel for 33 years. When she wasn’t working, she enjoyed spending time with her family, which was very important to her. Carrie loved going to the movies, shopping, vacationing or just hanging out at her favorite beach spot, Torrey Pines. She and her husband Ron enjoyed traveling together and attending the many family gatherings. She was loving and kind and always had a smile. although small and delicate in appearance, she was strong, active and enjoyed life; often putting her children to shame on hikes and walks. She is preceded in death by her parents, her two sisters and a brother. She is survived by her husband, Ron Doss; sister, Claudia Hamblin; children, Kim (Jim) Bartlett,

Ramona freshman Amy Brown finished 21st in the race of the top three runners from each school. Her time of 19:47 was the fastest for any freshman girl in any race. Brown passed multiple runners in the final three-quarters of a mile. "She had a great finish," Edwards said. "Amy's progressing nicely." Ramona's other runner in that race, Marissa Talle, had the 47th-place time of 21:24. The girls race with the fourth and fifth runners included a 19th place finish and a time of 21:30 for Lexi Waples and a 23rd-place time of 22:27 for Madison Huckey. Edwards used two Ramona freshmen for the race with the sixth and

teams in the nation back to back days," Halfaker said. Ramona's losses to Mater Dei were by 25-16 and 25-20 margins. "We were real happy with that," Halfaker said. What was not pleasing for the Bulldogs is that Morgan Wilson, who took over as Ramona's starting middle blocker when Gracie Seits moved from middle blocker to opposite hitter after the loss of Donais, twisted her ankle in the first game and missed the rest of the match. The seeding match result placed Ramona in the Silver Division comprised of the tournament's teams seeded ninth

through 16th after the first four contests. Ramona faced Rancho Cucamonga in the first elimination match, and Marshall left the match due to heat exhaustion after the first few points. "I think it took a little bit of a toll on everybody," Halfaker said of another unavailable player. Rancho Cucamonga eliminated Ramona in a 25-9, 25-17 match. "Nothing seemed to go right," Halfaker said. The league and tournament results gave Ramona a 23-6 season record. "Just really proud of the girls playing hard," Halfaker said.

seventh runners; Michaela Meskell had a time of 21:58 which gave her 16th place and Alyssa Davis was the 21st finisher 23:01 after the race began. "I was pretty happy with the way the top seven ran," Edwards said. The novice race is for runners who are in their first season of cross-country. This includes Ramona senior Christina Brown, whose 13th-place time of 23:37 made her the Bulldogs' first finisher. A time of 23:24 gave Sarah Guthrie 29th place overall and the first finish among Ramona runners in the junior varsity race. Ramona's fastest boy was Jack Clough, whose time of 16:58 gave him 29th place in the boys race with the top three runners of each school. "He broke 17 (minutes), so we were excited about that," Edwards said. Cameron Klein completed the premier boys race in 18:10 for 55th place and Billy Miller had a time of 19:12 for 64th place. Mitchell Sutter placed 35th in the boys

4-5 race with a time of 18:52 and Colton Meskell became that race's 43rd finisher after completing the course in 19:54. The boys 6-7 race included a time of 19:38 and 35th place for Gavin Roche and a 45th-place performance taking 20:06 for Marcus Wallace. No Ramona boys ran in the junior varsity race. Junior Sebastian Pazos had also not competed for the Bulldogs before the Southern California Running Center Invitational. He finished 30th in the novice race with a time of 20:41 in his cross-country debut. The Bulldogs do not have a meet this weekend and will next race in the Oct. 21 session of the Mt. SAC Cross-Country Invitational at Mount San Antonio College. "We're just getting ready for Mt. SAC and getting ready for those hills," Edwards said.

The other two Westview touchdowns were on a long pass and on a run against a Ramona blitz. "Defensively we played one of our better games," Baldwin said. "We were able to get off the field and force Westview punts." Ramona had a 28-13 halftime lead. "We didn't play great offensively in the second half," Baldwin said. "We went three and out too many times." This Friday’s game against Mt. Carmel begins a streak of three consecutive Ramona home match-ups. "It's going to be a big challenge," Baldwin said.

PAGE A18 - OCTOBER 13, 2016 - RAMONA SENTINEL

Steve Hermiz is Man About Town BY MAUREEN ROBERTSON Steve Hermiz, manager of Country Wine and Spirits’ three businesses in Ramona, is this year’s Man About Town, Ramona Chamber of Commerce first vice president Sally Westbrook announced. The “penny per vote” contest was part of the chamber’s 46th Annual Ramona Country Fair this summer. The contestant with the most “votes” won. Fifty percent of the money raised went into the chamber’s scholarship program for Ramona students and 50 percent to the charity of each Man About Town hopeful’s choice. Hermiz chose the chamber’s scholarship fund as his charity, so 100 percent of the $2,030 he raised went for scholarships. Close behind Hermiz was Paul Stykel, who raised $1,775. Half went to the scholarship fund and half to Ramona Boys and Girls Club. Also bolstering the scholarship fund was the Motorcycle Rally that chamber director Paul Zawilenski organized for the last day of the country fair. Westbrook said the money raised by the Man About Town contest and the motorcycle show added $3,500 to the Ramona Chamber of Commerce Scholarship Fund. Joe Stupar, the chamber’s executive director, told school board members at a recent meeting that the chamber board had designated $7,000 for scholarships this year, up from $6,500 last year. The $3,500 is in addition to that, so the chamber will be giving more than $10,000 in scholarships to Ramona students. Additional donations to the fund are also coming from chamber members, Stupar told the school board.

FROM CHURCH, A17

KAREN BRAINARD

NEW CHAMBER MEMBER

Laura Wolfe, real estate agent with ReMax Direct, prepares to cut the ceremonial ribbon marking her membership in the Ramona Chamber of Commerce. Joining her for the event at the ReMax office at 1410 Main St. are fellow agents and chamber members.

Dan Erlenbusch. “Our life together is an exciting one.” As the congregation continues its ministry at its Main Street location, “we are preparing to build on our property,” said Erlenbusch. “You have once again noticed bulldozers and dirt being hauled in to our site. We are getting ready to grade the property and move forward with building construction. This will take each of us as we pray for God’s continued guidance and blessing on our construction, and as we offer ourselves in the building process.” Spirit of Joy is doing God’s work in full swing and has a twofold emphasis this month: inward spiritual growth and outward mission, said Erlenbusch. “One of the great encouragements in our faith is to be part of a worshipping community,” he said.

Ten vie for five seats on chamber board The names of 10 Ramona Chamber of Commerce members are on the ballot for the 2017-19 chamber board. Five seats are open. Ballots must be received by Oct. 21 at 4 p.m., and winners will be announced at the chamber mixer at Ramona Disposal Service, 324 Maple St., that evening. Complete biographies submitted by the candidates are on the chamber website, www.ramonachamber.com, under Newsletters, October newsletter. Seeking re-election to the board are Amber Ramirez with Amber Ramirez/Farmer’s Insurance, Kathleen Cole with Jewelry World & Loan and Paul Zawilenski with Chase Bank. Also on the ballot are Brenda Berry with Vine to Vine Tours and Riviera Oaks, Connie Phillips with Ramona Country Yarn Store, Deborah K. Reaza with Accredited Backflow, Eric Vellone with Ramona Town Radio, Karen Domnitz with Century 21 Award, Penny Hale with QuickBooks Solutions and Wayne Miller with Miller Telcom Services.

She has been a chamber board member for nine years, is secretary on the Ramona Senior Center Board, and a Ramona Rotary Club member involved in Rotary’s Music Fest, July 4 Fireworks, Student of the Month Amber and Flags on Main Street. Being involved Ramirez makes Ramona a better community for all, she says. Brenda Berry calls the hospitality industry her passion, and her role at Riviera Oaks Resort & Racquet Club involves promoting, marketing, building and supporting the community. Her Vine to Vine Tours also promotes the community, and she looks forward to supporting and encouraging economic growth and bridging businesses and Brenda creating profitable relationships in Berry Ramona.

Connie Phillips and her husband, Todd, opened the yarn store at 638 Main St. in 2014. Previously a banker for 20 years, she says her business background and experience knitting and crocheting since age 8 allow her to do something she loves. She serves on the chamber’s Economic Development Committee and Connie is committed to generating new business Phillips as well as keeping current merchants strong. Deborah K. Reaza has a 37-year history in management as a registered dietitian in the healthcare industry. She also worked in a family real estate appraisal business with her husband, and the Reazas recently started Accredited Backflow. She supports and promotes all chamber activities through Deborah her participation in the chamber’s Reaza Ambassador program, and she dances with the Ramona Rockettes. Eric Vellone moved to Ramona in 1985, starting third grade here. A single father of three, he worked in the air conditioning and refrigeration industry for 15 years before returning to music. He started Ramona Town Radio, an internet radio station, and the station Eric Vellone has broadcast many chamber events. He sees how the chamber helps people and wants to be more involved and help business grow in Ramona. Karen Domnitz, a Realtor, wants to carry her participation in and energy for the chamber Ambassadors into a seat on the chamber board. Her commitment is to see the community be everything it can be. She volunteers as an art instructor at Hanson Elementary. She Karen delivers supplies and treats to each Domnitz school monthly and donates to a school organization with each property she closes.

Penny Hale

Wayne Miller chamber.

Kathleen Cole, a Ramona resident for 35 years, owns Jewelry World and Loan with her husband, Tom. They work to keep their small business thriving and she says it is important to give back to the community that has supported them. She chose to be involved with the chamber because it is there for the small business owner. As a director she has seen the commitment the volunteers put into the town. Paul Zawilenski, a chamber director for a year, established the chamber’s first Ramona Motorcycle Rally/Show during the country fair. All money raised at the event went to the Chamber Scholarship Program and the Ramona Community Foundation. Co-chair of the Economic Development Committee, he has served on Big Brothers Big Sisters of San Diego County and the Boys & Girls Club. Penny Hale started her bookkeeping and payroll business in 2009. Previously she was a legal secretary and then worked part time in a bookkeeping/office manager job. A chamber Ambassador for seven years, she volunteers at chamber mixers, fairs and other events. She believes her bookkeeping experience gives her an understanding of the unique needs of the small businesses in Ramona. Wayne Miller grew up in the Mt. Helix area and moved to Ramona in 1997, the year he joined the chamber. He owns Miller Telcom Services and Miller Off-Road Products. An off-roader, he volunteers to keep public lands open for public recreation. He believes his years in business and leadership roles in Off-Road for Hope and Tierra Del Sol Desert Safari would be an asset to the

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 this property. NOTICE OF TRUSTEE’S SALE Note: Because the Beneficiary reserves the right to bid less than the total debt owed, it is possible that at the time of the sale the opening bid may be less than the total debt. 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

available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale.

Lockdown no threat to students, says official Ramona High School and Olive Peirce Middle School on Hanson Lane were on brief lockdown Wednesday morning, Oct. 5, but a school district official said there was no threat to students. “There was never a threat to our school or our students,” said Anne Staffieri, Ed.D, superintendent of Ramona Unified School District. The lockdown was called around 10:15 a.m. and lifted about 25 minutes later, she said. According to Lt. Jerry Hartman of the sheriff’s Ramona station, the sheriff’s communication center contacted Ramona High to let the school know there would be increased law enforcement

presence while investigating an incident in the vacant field behind the school. An argument reportedly took place between two males and one pulled a knife on the other, who then called the sheriff’s station, said the lieutenant. The suspect was walking toward San Vicente Road when deputies stopped and talked to him, said Hartman. There was no arrest, he said, adding that if there had been one it would have been a misdemeanor. Although Hartman said the sheriff’s department did not direct Ramona High to impose a lockdown, Staffieri said the school acted on what administrators believed was a directive for a lockdown.

Winding Down BY DAVE PATTERSON

Saving money in retirement

have been noticing antennas popping up around town for the reception of free broadcast TV. These aerials are called HD antennas because they receive the new frequency bands of digital HDTV. This frequency range is shifted slightly from the old analog TV, but the old one might work OK just to see if there is any signal to capture at all. Ramona is in a difficult place for HDTV reception, on the fringe, but many of us have been successful receiving it anyway. The

savings for us is about $75 per month since we switched over from paid satellite TV. Cable companies are using the bundle to keep market share by selling Internet, TV and on-demand services as one. Thus, eliminating just the TV from a bundle may be difficult to do if your cable provider has no competition in your area. We are lucky, however, to have Cox cable and AT&T on our street competing against each other. People can write me if

they wish to explore switching to free broadcast HDTV. We have been saving money on propane lately by barbecuing in the middle of the day. Ramona’s summer heat has the inside of the barbecue at 350 degrees just from the noonday sun. No gas needed! Some people use the barbie to dry fruit, but keeping the ants out may be an issue. One purchase I do not recommend is a camouflaged assault weapon. I purchased one a few months ago, loaded it, put it down and I haven’t been able to find it since. What a waste of money! Straying slightly from my frugality theme, I do not recommend camouflage clothes either. For women a camo top makes them look topless, literally, and seeing anyone moving down the street with no lower torso, camo bottoms on, is very disconcerting. One way to save money is by staying healthy, and my plan is not to get old and

not to get sick. I used to think that my wife and I were getting along marvelously with both of us retired, but recently I have become suspicious that she may be attempting to knock me off! It started with her trying to get me to eat Keenowa, a substance that looks and tastes like tiny Styrofoam balls. Then she added a drink called Kombucha, that tastes like a combination of all the herbs that I find revolting. Next was Kefir, fermented raw goats milk, like the mare’s milk beer they make in Mongolia, and now she’s threatening me with Mung beans, green, ugly and likely to taste bad also. Too many “Ks” like the K in Kommunism, bad stuff if you know what I mean. My suspicions may be right, so keep an eye out for this column to see if I’m still kicking. If you have any ideas to share with our fellow Ramonans, send them to me: dpatterson998@yahoo.com.

One of the positive aspects of working in this community is the number of highly motivated and caring community members. When I have a question or need assistance, I can ask for help and receive it without hesitation.

County reports first flu death A 73-year-old woman who died of complications from influenza was the region's first fatality of the current flu season, county health officials reported. The unnamed woman died Oct. 4 after a brief hospitalization, according to the county Health and Human Services Agency. She was not vaccinated and suffered from existing medical conditions. “This is one of the earliest deaths from seasonal influenza ever reported in the county,” said Dr. Sayone Thihalolipavan, county deputy public health officer. “The seasonal influenza vaccine is widely available and we urge everyone six months of age and older to get it before flu activity increases.” In the last flu season, 68 people died in the county. Most were older patients who already had health problems, and two were children, the county said. The first fatality last year wasn't reported until Oct. 28. Sixty lab-confirmed influenza cases have been reported so far this season in San Diego County, compared to 68 at this point last year. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently reported that influenza activity is low across the country, although localized influenza outbreaks have been reported. The current flu vaccines offer protection against pandemic H1N1, as well as influenza A H3N2 and influenza B strains. The CDC recommends flu shots annually for everyone at least 6 months old. Vaccination is more important for people with weakened immune systems, as well as those who are pregnant, elderly or live with or care for others at high risk. Other suggestions for staying healthy include frequent hand-washing, using hand sanitizers, staying away from sick people, avoiding touching the eyes, nose or mouth, and cleaning commonly touched surfaces. Flu vaccines are available at doctors' offices and pharmacies. People without medical insurance can go to a county public health center to get vaccinated. A list of locations is at www.sdiz.org or by calling 211.

Water supplies will meet 2017 and beyond demands, agency reports

Continued conservation essential to manage supplies As the 2016 water year came to a close on Sept. 30, San Diego County Water Authority officials said that the region’s projected water supplies will be sufficient to meet demand in 2017 and beyond — but continued water-use efficiency remains essential to help the region manage those supplies amid an uncertain outlook for rain and snow this winter. Even if conditions remain dry, San Diego County’s water supplies will meet demands due to drought-resilient water resources such as the Claude “Bud” Lewis Carlsbad Desalination Plant, which produces approximately 50 million gallons of potable water per day, and conservation-and-transfer contracts and agreements for high-priority water from the Colorado River. Those resources and others allowed the water authority to pass the state’s water reliability stress test, which requires water agencies to demonstrate they have adequate water supplies to meet demands even if they experience three additional

dry years. The agency said that regional water savings stayed strong during the summer. From June through August, urban potable water use in San Diego County was 18 percent below the same period in 2013 even though state-mandated emergency water-use reductions were lifted in June and average daily maximum temperatures were 2 degrees above normal. “The San Diego region has a track record of smart investments in supply reliability and water-use efficiency that have proven their worth during five years of drought,” said Mark Muir, whose term as water authority board chair began Oct. 1. “In addition, the commitment our region’s residents and businesses continue to show for saving water is remarkable. The goal going forward is to

maintain the momentum and to Live WaterSmart by eliminating leaks, adopting WaterSmart landscapes and continuing to embrace other water-efficient practices that are becoming the norm.” Muir spoke at a news briefing at the water authority’s Kearny Mesa headquarters to discuss weather and water supply conditions at the start of the 2017 water year, which began Oct. 1. Other speakers included Amanda Sheffield from the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at University of California San Diego, and Dana Friehauf, water resources manager for the water authority. Sheffield said the potential for a La Niña weather pattern to form this fall in the Pacific Ocean is weakening. That makes forecasting the snowpack and runoff levels in major watersheds such as the Sierra Nevada and Rocky Mountains less predictable. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration

has predicted warmer-than-average temperatures across the West through December. Friehauf said that while statewide water supply and weather conditions are uncertain, San Diego County is benefiting from its development of alternative water supplies and major infrastructure since the early 1990s. “These investments have greatly enhanced the reliability of our region’s water supplies, both now and for decades to come,” Friehauf said. “However, we are in a long and hot stretch statewide, and history reminds us that dry spells can last for many years. That means we must always be efficient with our water resources.” No mandatory water-used targets are expected through 2016. A public agency, the water authority delivers wholesale water supplies to 24 retail water providers. Among them is the Ramona Municipal Water District.
