TOP COP At 6 feet 8 inches tall, new Police Chief Scot Smithee is one of the few people who get to look down
on his equine officers. Smithee retired from Gilroy Police and now returns to the department’s top $185,000 a year slot. He had been serving temporarily since January.
Public Servant #1 JUST THE FACTS FROM GILROY’S NEW TOP COP By Bryce Stoepfel Reporter
After a nationwide search, the City of Gilroy didn’t need to look far beyond the city’s limits for a police chief. Last Wednesday, during his official swearing in ceremony at New Hope Church Scot Smithee came out of retirement to become the Gilroy Police Department’s newest police chief. “I decided the day I wake up in the morning and I’m not ready to come back to work, that would be the day that I leave,” Smithee said. “Long story short, that day never came.”

Q: How did you become interested in police work? A: I got my interest in police work with the Atherton Police Department. I was a police Explorer and Cadet before I turned 18. Coming here as a reserve I’d work weekend nights once a week.
I put myself through the police academy in 1985 and was then hired full time. During the week, when I was swinging a hammer in 100-degree heat, I couldn’t wait for the day to be over. I decided, maybe I should try this for awhile. I envisioned myself doing police work for three to five years and then going back to take over the family business building homes. Q: What separates the GPD from others? A: It comes down to philosophy, A department is kind of like a big family. You can extend that to the whole community and Gilroy feels like a big family.

On Monday Chief Smithee, 52, sat down to field questions from the Gilroy Dispatch. He spoke about the changing nature of police work, the role of the press, immigration and the challenge of being a police officer in an increasingly politically polarized world. He spoke of the joys of his work, the difficulties, and dangers, along with the issues that police officers in Gilroy face on a daily basis.

The Gilroy Fire Department has a new flagship to lead its armada of fire fighting equipment. On Monday, before the Gilroy City Council meeting, Gilroy firefighters displayed their new Pierce Quantum fire engine. With a price tag of more than $665,000, the engine is expected to serve the city for at least 20 years.
“This is the first new fire engine we’ve had in this city in the last 12 years,” Fire Chief Alan Anderson said. “We put a committee together to research what the best in the industry was and this is what they come up with.” With a six cylinder Detroit Diesel motor, the capacity to hold 700 gallons of water and seat six firefighters, pneumatic steps, state-of-the-art displays and indicators, it might be hard to choose the coolest thing on the fire engine. “The LED lights for sure,” Anderson said. “We can turn a
neighborhood into daytime with the flick of a switch.” The Pierce Quantum fire engine has hoses, pumps and water, used to apply the muscle needed to combat fires. Fire trucks, as opposed to fire engines, carry the long extendable hydraulic ladders with other special equipment for forcible entry, ventilation and search and rescue. Besides axes and saws, the engine is equipped with a 24-foot extension ladder and a 12-foot roof ladder, along with a ➝ New Fire Engine, 14
Glen View Elementary School will start the school year with a new principal, Christine Pereira Vasquez, who replaces seven-year veteran Corina Sapien. Pereira Vasquez began her teaching career at the Salinas City Elementary School Districtt where she taught kindergarten for five years. She came to GUSD in 2005 to continue teaching elementary students. In her most recent assignment, she was an academic coach for Eliot and Glen View Elementary Schools providing training and support to staff with lesson plans, new curriculum implementation, and professional development. ”I have also continued my own educational journey so that I can continue to make a difference,” said Pereira Vasquez. “I am very excited to be carrying on the school’s vision, working with incredible staff, and making a positive difference for our students and families. ” District Superintendent Dr. Deborah A. Flores praised her. “Through her work as the Academic Coach at Glen View, she has become very familiar with the school and has developed a strong working relationship with staff,” she said. Pereira Vasquez, 39, lives in Gilroy with her husband and two children, Maleah, 9, who will be going into the 4th grade at Eliot Elementary and son Tristan, 15, who will be going into the 10th grade at Christopher High School. She began her new position Aug. 4. Sapien, the former principal who was with the District for 28 years in various capacities, will be Administrator for District Relations representing the Sobrato Early Academic Literacy (SEAL) program. The SEAL program is designed to build the capacity of preschools and elementary schools to develop the language and literacy skills of young Spanishspeaking English Learner children and to close the academic achievement gap by fourth grade. Five schools within GUSD have implemented the SEAL program – Antonio Del Buono, Eliot, El Roble, Glen View, and Rucker Elementary Schools.

hank you, good caller, for asking the question that is top-of-mind for the legions of fans of The Longhouse – one of Gilroy’s most beloved restaurants – located on 8195 Monterey St. Ever since an early-morning kitchen fire raced through the restaurant last July, people are wondering when this local hot spot, offering comfort food at reasonable prices, will reopen. Red Phone caught up with the coowner, Pete Maroudas, who on many days, waits out in the restaurant’s parking lot to reassure the anxious public that he and his nephew and other coowner, Danny Maroudas have every intention of reopening as soon as possible. Restoration has been moving along, albeit slowly, with the work being done by Pacific Reconstruction, which specializes in disaster restoration and insurance repairs of commercial buildings. When Red Phone asked for an estimate of when the restaurant may reopen, Maroudas said, “We are pushing really hard to reopen in the next one and a half months.”
Maroudas took Red Phone inside the building for a tour, pointing out all the work that has been done so far, including a new roof and fresh sheet rock. The bar area, called the Beehive Cocktail Lounge, has been completely remodeled and is ready to go. Next steps are the ceiling and walls which need to be textured and painted, along with installing new flooring. Then, the brand new appliances, booths and tables, which have already been delivered, will need to be installed. “We lost a lot of time with all the rain we had this past winter which delayed the remodel work. Our restaurant is just one of the many projects that our contractor is responsible for and they are doing their best to work us into their schedule. We can’t push them too much,” cautioned Maroudas. Maroudas, who immigrated from Greece to the United States in 1956, has owned the Longhouse Restaurant since 1977. Old timers from Gilroy may remember that the restaurant was formerly the Busy Bee. “The Longhouse is a family restaurant. I want it to feel like home for my customers,” explains Maroudas. “Among our many specialties, we are well-known for our traditional, Greek Lemon Soup. People insist on having it every Sunday. “We appreciate all the concern that everyone has shown us. Immediately after the fire, the first thing people asked was, ‘Is everybody OK?’ Everyone has been very, very supportive - - the police and fire departments as well as the city.” Tom Wagner, the building’s owner, says, “The toughest part is on the Longhouse employees, many of which worked there for many years.” It appears that the employees are just as loyal as the customers, with several waiting and willing to return when the restaurant eventually reopens.

Ariat brings classy horsewear to town WESTERN WEAR SHOP IS THE COMPANY’S FIRST OUTLET By Bryce Stoepfel
Contributed
Buford “Bud” Davis, John Travolta’s character in the 1980 film Urban Cowboy would be home and looking cool, after shopping at the Ariat Outlet Store, a new western wear clothing store at the Gilroy Outlets. The outlet is a new endeavor for Ariat, a brand known for premium boots, equestrian sports wear and clothing with a hip, country flair, offering off-season goods at an appreciable discount. Now South Valley shoppers can find some of the same duds worn by modern day stars like Guardians of the Galaxy's Chris Pratt and Kaley Cuoco from Big Bang Theory. “Besides that Gilroy is near our corporate offices in Union City, Gilroy is home to a robust agricultural community and it made sense to make our first premium outlet store in Gilroy,” said Erica Hess, Public Relations Manager for Ariat International Inc. “We know
that we have a bunch of customer awareness in the area but here we can introduce the brand to so many different people at great, outlet prices. With Gilroy and its agricultural roots, it seemed like a great fit.” Co-owner and founder Beth Cross with Pam Parker started the Union City, California business in 1993, with the goal to make the highest quality footwear and apparel riders will ever wear, Hess said in an email. With locations in Fresno and Lexington, Kentucky the company has been active online and sells its products in many western wear stores. With a corner spot at the Gilroy Outlets, shoppers average a 30 to 50 percent discount or up 60 to 75 percent on specially marked items. Some styles will be sold exclusively at the outlet, but the majority of items are closeout or off-season inventory. During the opening weekend starting on July 29, 2,500 customers came to the 3,200-squarefoot showroom. Since then, it’s drawn 400 shoppers a day buying denim, woven shirts, belts, bags and English riding apparel, suitable for the Duke of Buckingham and his couturier. The name,
GO WEST Ariat, on the East and South, opens its third store in Gilroy’s outlets. Ariat comes from Secretariat, the Triple Crown winning thoroughbred of 1973. “We approach all of our products with the idea of how we can make it better, whether you’re working on the farm or an athlete competing in the rodeo or equestrian event,” said Hess.
Ariat’s high end Two24 designer boots, made with Spanish and Mexican leather, which originally sold from $500 to $250 are available at a 50 percent discount. Woven shortsleeve shirts are as low as $32. The store is still looking for employees. Part timers can
make between $12 to $14 and fulltime can make $14 to $16. Open Monday through Saturday 10 a.m.-9 p.m. and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. the store will have up to four full time employees and another six part time employees.

NOTICE OF EVIDENTIARY HEARING REGARDING PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY’S 2016 ERRA COMPLIANCE FILING (A.17-02-005) Scheduled September 6–7, 2017, at 10 a.m. at the address below: California Public Utilities Commission Courtroom State Office Building 505 Van Ness Avenue San Francisco, CA 94102 SUMMARY On February 28, 2017, Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) filed its 2016 Energy Resource Recovery Account (ERRA) Compliance application with the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC). This Evidentiary Hearing (EH) has been scheduled by the CPUC to review the reasonableness and compliance of PG&E’s utility-owned generation operations as well as other related costs for 2016. BACKGROUND The ERRA is used to record fuel and purchased power costs which can be recovered in rates. PG&E recovers these costs with no markup for return or profit. The purpose of this ERRA Compliance proceeding is to request an increase in rates and to review PG&E’s costs associated with obtaining energy for customers. The CPUC will review PG&E’s costs to ensure compliance with the previously approved forecast and energy purchasing plans as well as compliance with the goal of minimizing costs for our customers. HOW WILL PG&E’S APPLICATION AFFECT ME? In addition to the compliance function of this application, PG&E is requesting a total of $5.69 million related to seismic (earthquake) studies performed at Diablo Canyon Power Plant and California’s Renewable Portfolio Standard. If approved, this amount will be collected in rates from customers effective January 1, 2018. EVIDENTIARY HEARING At this EH the assigned Administrative Law Judge (Judge) will receive the testimony of PG&E, consumer advocacy groups, and other parties to this proceeding. These hearings are open to the public, but only those who are parties to the proceeding may present evidence or testimony and be subject to cross-examination. The hearings and documents submitted during this proceeding will become part of the formal record that the Judge will rely upon in writing a proposed decision to present to the Commissioners for their consideration. After considering all proposals and evidence presented during the formal hearing process, the assigned Judge will issue a proposed decision which may adopt PG&E’s proposal, modify it or deny it. Any of the five CPUC Commissioners may sponsor an alternate decision. The proposed decision, and any alternate decisions, will be discussed and voted upon at a scheduled CPUC Voting Meeting. Please note: The CPUC’s Courtroom is wheelchair accessible. If you wish to attend and need specialized accommodations, please contact the Public Advisor’s Office (PAO) at least five business days prior to the hearing date. Any changes to the dates, times and locations of the hearings will be posted to the CPUC’s Daily Calendar.

OPINION FROM THE WEB Woman sues Gilroy to stop cutting trees, loses As a taxpayer and fifth generation Gilroyan I stand with her! Why should the company doing the removal, get to do the assessment, when there is a conflict of interest? There is an obvious bias in this company's favor. John Alan Kroeger Via Gilroy Dispatch Facebook page
Save the good trees Hopefully they don't cut these beautiful and majestic trees and replace them with a bunch of Crap Mertles (spelling intentional), like the city loves planting. Easy on the eyes but majestic they are not. Definitely not a tree to be planted along a street. They should only be planted as ornamental trees to complement real trees like we have now or sit in front of a house. Christopher Amaro Via Gilroy Dispatch Facebook page
CIty promises to plant more trees than it cuts I am dubious about the follow through. The city took down large trees on the sidewalk in the outlets (right across from McDonalds, to the north) but has never replaced them. The empty squares still sit there several years later.

Terminally ill, but there’s more beneath the surface
H
i neighbors. In no way do I want this to come across as some narcissistic ploy to talk about myself. However, sometimes I wonder about my neighbors and so I figured I’d share a little bit of my story. I’ve been married for 24 years to my high school sweetheart (Santa Clara High), we had our daughter Chelsea at only 20 years old. It was a huge struggle as we were so young and didn’t have a lot of money. We lived and worked in Santa Clara until Chelsea was 5, when we decided to move to Gilroy as rent was less expensive. We lived in the duplexes on Wren/Kern for 10 years. Chelsea, went to Rod Kelley, South Valley and Gilroy High. We bought our first house eight years ago. We were so excited and thrilled to be homeowners. My husband started at the bottom of his company at 18 and now 24 years later holds a prestigious executive position. His hard work finally paid off and we were finally able to breath a bit. I was a stay-at-home mom who worked in almost all of our daughters classrooms, went on field trips, etc. I stayed home with her until she was about a junior in high school and then I studied fitness and nutrition and started working as a freelance personal trainer. I loved it! I was feeling great and loving fitness so much that I was looking into the fitness competition world as something I was interested in pursuing, until I became very, very ill. It was about four years ago, out of nowhere. I became very sick. I weighed merely 84 pounds and pretty much my internal organs were shutting down one by one. I was tossed around to so many doctors and specialists to find out what the heck was happening! So many tests, vials upon vials of bloodwork and X-rays. So, so many. My bloodwork was coming back abnormal yet they couldn’t figure out why. In the meantime, I was unable to walk. My legs and feet were going numb, my feet had pins and needle pain times a thousand. My poor husband had to

literally carry me up and down our beautiful new two-story home and even had to carry me to and from the bathroom as even those short amount of steps were impossible. One of the specialists finally said to me, “Nancy, you are dying. Your body has turned against you and it’s eating it’s way through your organs!” She started me on chemotherapy immediately, six months of it. I couldn’t drive my car so my parents, bless them, sold their house in Santa Clara to come help and be closer to their dying daughter. It would take over a year for me to finally get behind the wheel of my car. So many different medical terms and all of these doctors couldn’t agree on a name for what I have. Some decided that I have a combination of several different autoimmune diseases but still till this day cannot come up with the source. I am unfortunately, still undiagnosed. The head of the neurological department at Stanford University says this disease I have will never get better is a progressive neuropathy that I will have the rest of my life. It attacks my lower extremities and leaves me unable to walk or stand at times. It causes me to sometimes be wheelchair bound so I make my own wheelchair pretty so at least I don’t hate to get in it! Unfortunately, chemotherapy treatment is the only thing that really slows it down. I had had three rounds and a fourth round will begin in November. People who meet me say that by my outer appearance they cannot tell that I am sick. That is because my illness ravages from within. I always try to look nice on the outside so I don’t have to match my inside. I love God so much and I know He has a plan for me. I love to be around lots of family and friends. It’s when I can be most distracted from my illness. On the bright side, we’re awaiting our first grandchild and you can bet that I will fight tooth and nail, with all of my might, to make sure I can stand tall with all of my strength to hold her, play with her, and most importantly for me, walk with her through her precious life.

GIlroy’s biggest housing complex This is insane, that complex is too big and sits along the railroad tracks. It only has one parking spot per unit, so where is the city going to put the additional cars? On the Streets? Has the city begun widening the streets to accommodate the added traffic? What about the rolling blackouts in Gilroy??? What about the water shortage? The public was kept in the dark about this one. Tenth Street is ruined! Miss Garlic Via Gilroy Dispatch.com
More on Alexander Street housing project When I moved to Gilroy I loved the small town atmosphere with shades of Spanish history, agriculture and a hint of early Napa. That's all been taken away by developers from Idaho. I can only hope they select local workers and not import tenants who add to the congestion of local schools and roads. Will be interesting to watch. Lola40 VIa GIlroy Dispatch.com
Feedback on the proposed Great Wolf water park Please do not build this waterpark in that beautiful valley. It's bad enough homes are cropping up along Hecker Pass. An amusement park would bring clogging traffic and spoil the bucolic setting. Build it on the other side of Highway 101. The outlet malls would surely appreciate the additional business.

First Street fixes I'll believe it when I see it. This is the same thing I have been hearing for the last six years. I have no faith in Gilroy leadership anymore. Stop Ruining Gilroy Via GIlroy Dispatch.com
Good news for bicyclists Lots of great stuff is happening in the Hecker Pass Development. The bicycle/pedestrian trail won't end once it reaches Burchell Road and Highway 152 behind the development. The developer is continuing it along Highway 152 all the way back down to Santa Teresa, where it will connect to current bike lanes. A future city project in partnership with Santa Clara County Water District for a bicycle/pedestrian bridge to cross over Uvas Creek and connect to Gilroy Gardens is being advocated by the City of Gilroy Bicycle Pedestrian Commission. Imagine to be able to walk and bike to Gilroy Gardens safely. Zachary Hilton Via Gilroy Dispatch Facebook page

By Bev Stenehjem Reporter
The unincorporated community of San Martin hopes its first Chamber of Commerce will help bring this rural town of 7,800 together and create a stronger identity. Mark Peebles, president, and Trina Hineser, community liaison director for the Chamber, say they want people to know about the community nicknamed “The Jewel of the South County,” and the chamber’s mission, “Building Community to Protect San Martin’s Rural Heritage.” “A lot of people are uninformed as to the many businesses that are in San Martin,” said Peebles, who moved to San Martin a year ago. “These businesses, whether they be home-based or have storefronts, are excited about raising the awareness and the image of San Martin. What we have seen, thus far, as we speak to each business is that they are excited about the potential a chamber of commerce will have for San Martin.” The SMCoC board is a mixture of San Martin business owners and residents. The first businesses to join are South Valley Internet, Seeker Vineyard, Earthtech Landscape, Realty World, The Law Office of Louis F. Doyle and Bay
Area Water Trucks. “These individuals have dedicated their time, energy, and in some cases money towards formulating and working hard to get the SMCoC to come to fruition,” said Peebles. The chamber’s board uses subcommittees for events and business development. The board is made up entirely of unpaid volunteers. Businesses and residents pay a membership fee to fund events, activities and barn-raising projects. “A Chamber of Commerce is intended to bring a broader section of the community together and provide a place for the business owner to give back to the community and gain support from each other,” said Peebles. “In addition to protecting the small town rural character, which makes San Martin special, the chamber hopes to stimulate the economic interest of the residents, strengthen San Martin’s independent and unique identity within Santa Clara Valley, and finally, seek to work in harmony with individuals and business, government and civic organizations within the greater community.” One of the chamber’s first accomplishments, spearheaded by Peebles, was to install new signs along Highway 101, between Morgan Hill and Gilroy, that say “San Martin” and include the elevation and population. The signs were a joint effort between the chamber and Sharon Luna, director of the San Martin Neighborhood Alliance. While many other communities
Peace of Mind
are working hard to grow, San Martin values its rural community and wants to preserve it as much as possible. A town ordinance requires home lots to be a minimum of five acres to assist in keeping the open, rural community. Like many residents, Peebles moved to San Martin to enjoy the open spaces and calmer lifestyle. “Here I've met my neighbors and have conversations with them, while that was not a common thing when I lived Redwood City, Cupertino or Saratoga. There is no other community that I'm aware of in South County that you can still see people riding horses down main roads, or home-after-home with vineyards as the common theme.” Hineser, a resident of San Martin for 17 years said, “I can tell you that my husband and I moved here for the same reasons Mark mentioned above. We know our neighbors and our neighborhoods and overall it is quieter than being in the city.” For years the community has considered incorporating to one of the neighboring cities, Gilroy or Morgan HIll, but has never moved forward on it. The community takes its name from St. Martin of Tours, the patron saint of early pioneer Martin Murphy, who built the first Catholic church in the area. More information about the San Martin Chamber of Commerce can be found at www. SanMartinChamber.org.

SWEARING IN Too many people wanted to see Scot Smithee sworn in to fit in the
police department’s meeting room, so the ceremony was moved to New Hope Church. Seated behind him are former Police Chief Denise Turner and captains Pedro Espinoza, Joseph Deras and Kurt Svardal.
Police try to stretch limited resources as far as they can Chief Smithee, 1 people who have a respect for the community and to know why we are here and why we exist. We exist because the people of Gilroy want to have a police department that helps make the town the way people want it to be. Some people see police work as something you do to people. That's not what I’m looking for. I’m looking for people who feel police work is something you do for people. Q: Do you feel the GPD has enough officers? A: We have several vacant positions available but it comes down to economics, you can never have enough. We need to bring in more people as the town continues to grow and the issues we face continue to become more complex. We recognize that we function off the taxpayer’s dollars and there’s only so many dollars. We’re going to take those resources and do the best job we can do.
and violent crimes have decreased by two percent. When you see double digit increases in property crimes like that, it is significant. Q: Would the GPD consider a downtown substation? A: We did that before but we didn’t get much use off it. We have a station with everything you need a couple blocks away. We’ve been given more attention downtown, particularly on Friday and Saturday afternoon and evening. Q: Has the homeless population been on the rise? A: That’s a huge problem and very complex. From the last homeless count we did there were 752 homeless people in Gilroy. If you go by population, that’s, by far, the most in Santa Clara County.
Q: Is speeding on Santa Teresa Boulevard a pressing concern? A: Traffic issues are our number one complaint. We have a unit of officers on motorcycles whose fulltime job is traffic enforcement. Driving habits have gotten way worse. It’s a huge problem everywhere, not just Gilroy. People follow way too closely and drive way too fast. You can get away with that for awhile, but eventually you’re going to crash. I made a traffic stop myself last week. We did get awarded another traffic officer in this year’s budget but I need to get the position hired. There were more people killed and injured in traffic accidents last year than any other thing combined. There's a direct correlation between how many tickets you write and injuries in traffic accidents. It’s been shown that the more tickets you write, the fewer injury accidents. Last year we had an increase in injury accidents from 130 in 2015 to 159 in 2016. Fatalities dropped from five to three in that span.
Q: Why makes the homeless population so high in Gilroy? A: I think it’s because we have the availability of services. In the winter there are two shelters in the county, one in Sunnyvale and the other here. We get a lot of people from the county here to use the shelter and a certain percentage of them stay. There are different kinds of homeless people from mental health cases, drug and alcohol cases or people who are just down on their luck. The theft that goes along with that has something to do with the increase in crime, along with Proposition 47 and 57 that voters passed which means we can’t arrest them for that. If you go look at the all along the waterways and camps around town, that’s where they go to the bathroom and that’s where they throw out their trash; the environmental impact is huge. We do cleanups every month and there are tons of garbage in the waterways. All that stuff is going into Monterey Bay if we don’t do something about it. They need somewhere to go and there’s an idea of building tiny homes, but that isn’t going to completely solve the problem because of the mental health and drug and alcohol cases. Sometimes they don’t want to live in a place with rules. A lot of them want to do what they want, when they want to do it.
Q: Has crime in Gilroy gone up or down in recent years? A: Property crimes have gone up by 12 percent
Q: What was your best part of being a police officer? A: Everyone gets into this line of work for
Q: Do you compete with other police departments for hires? A: No. The only time we compete with other police departments is for grants and funding.
similar reasons I think. For me, it was to make things better, to help people. Anytime you get a call when you can save someone’s life, or you can help someone from a traumatic experience and you can walk away with that good feeling inside of you, that's what makes it worthwhile. Q: What has changed the most about being a police officer? A: Technology has completely changed how we do business. If I made a car stop 30 years ago, by the time I was finished getting the drivers license, they might have had enough to know if the car was stolen. Now, before I get out of the car I know, it’s instantaneous. We can collect virtually anything. You can walk out of here and we can swab the table and figure out you were sitting there. It’s wild and it’s nothing like what we learned in the police academy. Q: Is the advance in technology a good thing or is it bad for police? A: I think we need to be very careful. After being in law enforcement all these years, my motivation is to catch bad people and hold them accountable. I think there is a very fine line when you have intrusions with cameras. Our Constitution is built on freedom and I think to some extent you're losing a part of that freedom if you’re being watched at all times. No matter how much you refine technology, there will be someone out there looking exploit it. Q: In general, do you think the press has been fair to law enforcement? A: No, I think over the past few years, police work has been beaten up. Sometimes we see things that don’t get reported in the media. The Antifa riot up in Berkeley was very skewed by the media. They had sticks and Molotov cocktails with their faces covered up. The media made it out that the people inside were the ones instigating the incident. That really bothered me and it was opposite of what really happened. Q: Why do you think that happens? A: I think sometimes it’s a political agenda.I hate politics because instead of doing what’s right, they do what furthers the political agenda and I ➝ Chief Smithee, 12

A: We go out and uphold the law and we do that in one of the most diverse places in the world. I think if you believe in what the country is built on, you don’t need to believe in the same things, but we all have to interact in a mutually respectful kind of way. I think sometimes we get too sucked into our own points of view when we communicate with people. I’ve found in this job and traveling around the world, that generally, people are good, no matter where you go. Sometimes when you communicate with people, you need to understand where they’re coming from and why they think that way. If I find out a person has a problem with the police department I want to find out why they feel that way.
Q: How else are you communicating with the community? A: The latest has been the immigration issue and we have a lot of groups in town concerned. There's a lot of fear because of a lot of rhetoric they hear from the media on the national level. People see an ICE officer and they fear being rounded up. That’s just not the case and we want to hear all of those concerns so we can help as much as we can. We also don’t want to sell people on what they want to hear. We need to be honest with people. We tell them what we do, how we do it and what we don't do. Q: Will the GPD cooperate with ICE? A: The answer is yes and no. The misconception is that we assist ICE in rounding people up. We don’t. If we stop you or we have an interaction with you, we don’t even ask if you’re a U.S. citizen. Our job at the local level is to make people comfortable and reduce crime. If we have a segment of our community that is afraid of us because they think we might do something to them, they won’t report crime and work with us and it hurts our effectiveness as a police department. We don’t want to create that atmosphere of fear.
At the same time, we can’t control ICE. It’s a federal agency and they can go wherever they want, including Gilroy and I can’t stop them. If someone asks me if we cooperate with ICE, in the matter of immigration status, the answer is no. If, however, we have someone who is a criminal, that is victimizing people in the community and they also happen to be here illegally, then I’m willing to cooperate with whoever I need to cooperate with to deal with that person. They’ll be held accountable to our local system and then as necessary with ICE so we can get them out of town and stop them from hurting people. Then we need to talk about what kind of crimes. There are low level, silly crimes, that don’t warrant that, but then there are other serious crimes that do that we’ll do whatever we need to do to deal with that person. Q Would burglary count? A: Yes, that’s a felony. Rape, murder, assault with a deadly weapon or even a gang member doing crimes to benefit the gang, we have no qualms using whatever we have at our disposal. We are not going after a mom or dad who has been raising their family here for 20 years.
Q: Recently President Trump during a speech in Long Island encouraged police to be “rough” on criminals. Do you think that kind of rhetoric helps? A: No, I don’t think it helps. We deal with a segment of the population that other people don’t want to believe exists. Sometimes, those people don’t want to cooperate and they resist no matter what. Sometimes we need to use force. I think the law is written appropriately and you only use the amount of force necessary to overcome resistance. Once the resistance is overcome, that’s it. To comment like he did, like ‘Don’t be too nice,’ doesn’t help anything. You don’t want to encourage a physical or violent response, because even though the vast majority of police officers around this country act completely appropriately, there's always someone out there who’s going to see that as a rubber stamp to do whatever you want. The way things are going, one person can do that and we’re all going to take the hit for it. Q: Do you feel there is a militarization in police departments and are military grade weapons and vehicles appropriate? A: I personally don’t see that as a concern. When you have shots being fired and we can’t go out
there without being shot, what are the alternatives? If you use something like an armored vehicle, you drive that in front of people and pull them out in safety. A lot has to do with how people perceive us using it. I don’t know what people think we're going to do with it, but it’s designed to keep people safe, including our own people. Q: Has the kind of police recruit changed over the years? A I think you see the generationional kind of changes but I don’t think that’s unique to law enforcement. I think we see more people who don’t have a lot of life experience. That can be a culture shock for someone who hasn’t done this kind of work. They need to understand that not everything works according to the world they grew up in. Q: Nationwide, the instances of opioid addiction have been on the rise. Is heroin the drug of choice among the homeless? A: There is definitely heroin use there, but I’m not sure if it’s number one. Methamphetamine, in my opinion, seems to be the number one drug here in town lately. 30 years ago PCP and heroin used to be the big things as well as cocaine.

Gilroy gets a $774K engine that can New Fire Engine, 1
The fire engine also boasts a variety of safety devices and by being governed at a top speed of 70 miles an hour, the machine is built with firefighter safety in mind. “This is the first engine that we have that has air bags,” said Fire Captain Randy Wong. “It has full rollover and steering wheel airbags and a knee curtain that would come out if the collision happened on the captain’s side. The advances in technology and the safety features put into this engine is a lot better than what we have now.” While the engine has years of work ahead of it, there’s some eagerness to get it in use. The fire engine is, pretty cool. “It’s a blast,” Wong said of driving the fire engine. “It’s like driving a car, just a lot taller.”

We need it to be reliable and safe for our firefighters to work on.” In February 2016 the city council approved a motion to enter into agreement with Pierce Manufacturing to build the fire engine with a price, including all the equipment, not to exceed $774,193. “It’s user-friendly for the firefighters, it’s easy to operate, and the maintenance is easy for our mechanics,” Anderson said. “It’s a good platform for us to deliver our community service.”

Santa Clara County is looking for someone who rhymes...or not. The county is taking applications for a Poet Laureate, an honorary two-year position whose role is to elevate poetry in the awareness of Santa Clara County residents and to help celebrate the literary arts.The honorary post was created by the Board of Supervisors in 2008. Four Poets Laureate have served to date: Nils Peterson (2009-2011), Sally Ashton (20112013), David Perez (2014-2015), and Arlene Biala (2016-2017). During his tenure, among several projects, Peterson created a 100-line poem called “A Family Album, Santa Clara County, 2009.” Ashton led several projects as well and notably created “Poetry on the Move” that put poetry on VTA railcars and buses. Perez focused on youth arts education and outreach, teaching a
poetry workshop series at elementary, middle and high schools and introducing poetry to the public via a Poetry Booth at high profile public events. Biala has led numerous poetry workshops and has brought a pop-up PoeTREE to events and public spaces, encouraging people of all ages to write lines or short poems. “The Santa Clara County Poet Laureate celebrates the literary arts, engaging poetry enthusiasts and creating a deeper appreciation for poetry in our community,” said Santa Clara County Supervisor Mike Wasserman, who is also chair of the Santa Clara County Library District Joint Powers Authority (JPA) Board. “We encourage poets from throughout the county to apply for the 2018-19 Santa Clara County Poet Laureate post.” The Poet Laureate must be a current county resident who has lived here for for three years and been published or recognized for poetry and literature.

CHRISTOPHER FOOTBALL KICKS OFF PADDED PRACTICE WITH MIDNIGHT MADNESS Cheeto Barrera Sports Editor
Coach Tim Pierleoni sat alone in his office above the boys locker room. Within his closed door, he shuffled through some papers making sure his practice plan was ready to go for his coaches. The clock ticked north of 11 p.m. and Pierleoni was tired but excited for the coming practice. Outside, cars, pick ups and SUVs sat on the basketball courts between the softball diamond and the football stadium. Players congregated together—some wearing their practice jerseys, some in street
clothes—their music playing from stereos. But inside the lockeroom up in the coach’s office, all was quiet. A short hour later, the gym would be abuzz with the excitement of players putting on their gear for the first padded practice of 2017. “Tonight is a fun night just because it’s also a team bonding event where we get to hang out with all of our friends and get that atmosphere,” said returning senior Ethan Crawford. “At the same time we’re getting all excited because this is the first night we get pads and the first night we get to hit.” Crawford said for all of the fun parts of the night, it is still about practice and he said the team knows it needs to flip the switch past the skits and the hanging out and get serious about preparing ➝ Madness, 17

Workouts intensify as season nears Cheeto Barrera Sports Editor
Gilroy is coming off of one of its best seasons in years and the Mustangs are hoping to keep that going as they enter the home stretch of the practice before the Aug. 25 kickoff. Coach Jubenal Rodriguez said the summer workouts have been great and he sees the boys buying into the program just as hard as they did last year that eventually led the Mustangs to a CCS semifinals berth.
“We had some good lifting, some competitions against other schools in 7-on-7 in camps,” Rodriguez said. “I’m happy that’s over and we put the pads on. I just wish we had some sort of competition against another team this weekend.” Gilroy will see a lot of consistency from last year to this one, but there are some holes to be filled. And this past summer, Rodriguez said he saw plenty of guys stepping up to take over those roles.
“Summer went real well,” Rodriguez said. “We had a lot of guys step up where we had vacancies in positions. I’m real excited about where the team is at and to have them coming back.” A year ago, the Mustangs emerged from a 3-7 season to go 8-4 overall, 5-1 in Pacific Division play—in a game decided in the last play—and eventually winning a first round CCS playoff game.

The Department of Kinesiology and Athletics named Erica Chapa the 2016-17 Gavilan College Student-Athlete of the Year Award. Chapa played for the women’s volleyball and beach volleyball teams. The award was presented at the Board of Trustee meeting on Aug. 8 in Morgan Hill and sponsored by Togo’s on First Street. Since 2008, the Rams Athletic Department has recognized and honored its student-athletes for their accomplishments on and off the field. As part of the selection process, special attention was paid specifically to four areas: academic achievement, leadership; athletic contributions; and involvement in the community. Over the course of the 2016-17 academic year, 28 individual student-athletes were recognized for their accomplishments as student-athletes of the month.
As a result, each were honored with a certificate of recognition, compliments of Articulate Solutions and a complimentary lunch gift certificate from Togo’s. Their names were also added to a perpetual plaque that will be displayed in the foyer of the Bud and Jean Ottmar Memorial Gymnasium. Chapa successfully completed 29 out of 29 attempted units, earning both Dean’s and ScholarAthlete honors during the academic year, while posting a 3.38 cumulative grade point average for the year. “On behalf of the Rams Athletic Department, we’d like to congratulate Erica on her accomplishments and wish her the best of luck as she moves forward with her studies and athletic career at CSUMB,” stated Ron Hannon, Dean of Kinesiology and Athletics. “We are extremely proud of her accomplishments on and off the court. But we’re even more excited about the terrific person that she has evolved into while being at Gavilan. She has an unbelievably exciting future in front of her.” She also walked the

As an active member in the community, Chapa has been involved in coaching both indoor and beach volleyball to young people from within our area for the past three years. She has coached players ranging from 14-17 years old offering individual lessons and serving as an
assistant coach for Crush Volleyball Club and Rush Volleyball Club. As a result of her hard work and determination, Chapa will continue her education at Cal State Monterey Bay competing for the Otters in volleyball on an athletic scholarship.

SUIT UP Gavilan football players start to don helmets and pads as they gear up for the stroke of midnight to officially
bring to an end the mandatory dead period in CCS and begin practicing again..
Practice is mad night of passage ➝ Madness, from page 17
for the up coming season, which kicks off on Aug. 25. Even Pierleoni reiterated that while the night is fun and there is a certain casualness to it, there are still teachable moments. His favorite skit of the night was a group that brought up the coaches from the football and cheer squads for a friendly roast. But Coach P noted the kids didn’t take it too far and still opted to show a great deal of respect. “It wasn’t as much of a roast as I thought. There were a lot of positive things,” Pierleoni said. “That’s part
of growing up. That’s part of what we do here. They have to make a decision: It’s got to be appropriate, the new principal is here, we’ve got to make good decisions here. Part of what we do and what I try to do is teach these boys how to make good, responsible choices.” In that moment before practice, however, the players and coaching staff could take a breath. Midnight Madness has fast become a favorite tradition at Christopher from simple beginnings of giving a young team as much practice as possible to a right of passage. “They get better every year. They’re different. It’s all good. It’s neat it started as a way to give the kids a leg up and now it has a mind of its own,” Pierleoni said. Midnight Madness kicks off the first moment that teams are allowed to practice after a 10-day break mandated by the Central Coast Section.
Christopher prides itself as being the first in the section to begin practice. Only because other sections hold a dead period earlier than CCS, the Cougars are not the first in the state to hold padded practices. The night began with a team dinner, followed by athletic contracts and leading to skits with football players teaming up with cheerleaders. Finally, players received their official gold practice jerseys. This year is a little different as the junior varsity team was called up to practice with the varsity squad to help with continuity between the two levels. “There’s always a need sometimes, anytime during the year that you need a JV guy to come up,” Pierleoni said. “Having those practices together makes it easier for him in that transition and for everyone else if they’ve practiced together.”

season, Gilroy will have plenty of seasoned veterans both in the skills positions and up front on the line. “In 2016, they had no choice but to trust me and we ended up having a good season,” Rodriguez said. “Now they took things whole new level in terms of what they brought each day.” Rodriguez said this summer he’s been most impressed with the size of the linemen coming out, joking that he is no longer the biggest guy in the huddle and that he finally has competition in the weight room. “It’s nice to get in the huddle looking up to players and not looking down at offense guards,” Rodriguez said. The line will be led by returning tackle Gabe Santos, who tips the scales at 250 pounds and measuring 6 feet, 1 inch. Joining him are fellow juniors Jordan Amos and Heber Saucedo who add some solid size to the front line for Gilroy. “The O-line has been working very hard in the off season. They started lifting the first day they were able to lift. They can’t wait to compete,” Rodriguez said.

The goal in these final weeks before kicking off against Overfelt in San Jose on Aug. 25 is to continue to fine tune the game plan and make sure everyone is ready to go. Some of that is just getting out there and remembering what got the team to where it is now. Over the summer, Gilroy has received some attention from other media outlets that cover the CCS, including naming Jon Jon Castro one of the quarterbacks to watch in 2017. But Rodriguez said the goal is to make sure none of that goes to their heads. “We haven’t changed anything I since took over program,” Rodriguez said. “All that success does is changes how teams play us now. We’re not going to surprise people anymore. Everyone knows we’re a competitive squad. Every week we know we’ll get every team’s best effort.” Even with the extra hype, Castro will return for his third season on the varsity team, joined by running back Joseph Barnes who took the league by storm a year ago. The team also added Christian Rodriguez who has stepped up since last year along with Richard Perez and Max Pierce.
