Two wildfire fires in Gilroy—one of which damaged two homes off Watsonville Road— burned a combined 15 acres of vegetation the night of Aug. 6, according to authorities. The first fire started along Watsonville Road west of Gilroy about 4:45pm. Four air tankers, two helicopters, and multiple engine companies from Gilroy, CalFire, and Watsonville and Santa Clara County fire departments battled the blaze in windy conditions. They carved a dozer line around the fire to aid containment and protect nearby homes and vineyards. Due to dry grass and winds, firefighters worked to contain spot fires sporadically ignited by falling embers. “Things are actually looking pretty good, but it’s so windy, and the grass

New FEMA aid headed to California By Barry Holtzclaw Managing Editor

58015 02001

Residents of Northern California counties ravaged by wildfires were relieved this week when the Federal Emergency Management Agency announced Aug. 6 it would provide disaster aid for Shasta County.

At the same time that President Donald Trump made California eligible for new disaster aid, he tweeted twice that California water and environmental policies were to blame for magnifying the size of the continuing wildfire disaster. The presidential tweets mystified and enraged state officials, politicians and scientists, but one environmental activist, Herman Garcia of Gilroy, thinks he knows the source of the President’s accusation. In July 2017, Garcia revealed

to the Gilroy Dispatch that the state’s failure to modify 60-yearold water policies had forced the release of water from state reservoirs following October rainstorms. State policy prevented collection of rainwater in reservoirs before Nov. 1, which Garcia argued wasted precious water resources and ignored changes in state rainfall patterns. This prompted promises from state officials to study the issue. California Natural Resources Secretary John Laird didn’t respond to questions this week

about Trump’s accusations, or about the status of his department’s study of Garcia’s concerns. “Our complaint made it all the way to the Oval Office,” a jubilant Garcia said this week, theorizing that word of allegedly wasteful water policies had finally reached the President, prompting the comments in this week’s White House tweets. Others offered an alternative political explanation for Trump’s water tweets: the release by the ➝ Trump Tweet, 13

Fortino Winery is located immediately west and south of the scene of the blaze. Sarah’s Vineyard is just east of the fire location. About two hours after the Watsonville Road fire started, another blaze was reported on the other side of Gilroy, in the area of Roop and Leavesley roads, Temmermand said. That fire started about 9pm and burned 3.5 acres of vegetation before firefighters could extinguish it. The Roop fire was about 70 percent contained by the morning of Aug. 7. No structures were involved in the Roop Road fire, Temmermand said. No injuries were reported from either of the two Aug. 6 fires. The cause of both blazes is under investigation.

By the morning of Aug. 7, the fire was about 90 percent contained, according to CalFire Fire Prevention Specialist Pam Temmermand. The fire burned on both sides of Watsonville Road, from Honeycomb Lane to Highway 152, according to authorities. Dozens of homes along Watsonville Road—from Hecker Pass to Honeycomb—were briefly evacuated. The evacuation was lifted by 7pm, allowing threatened residents to return home. Two homes were damaged due to the flames, which also threatened

Two motorists died in separate traffic accidents in Gilroy late last week— one on foot after he exited his vehicle following a collision on the freeway, and the other a motorcyclist who was struck by a drunken driver on Watsonville Road, according to police. About 9:38pm Aug. 2, Todd Elmore, 53, was driving a black Ford Crown Victoria northbound on

U.S. 101 at an unknown speed, at Leavesley Road in the Gilroy city limits, reads a press release from the California Highway Patrol. For an unknown reason, Elmore lost control of the vehicle in an area where the freeway crosses over Leavesley Road. The Ford collided with the west bridge rail of U.S. 101 at the Leavesley Road overcrossing, police said. The Ford was disabled in the collision, and came to rest facing the wrong direction within a northbound lane of U.S. 101, according to the CHP. Elmore exited the vehicle and moved into the

adjacent northbound traffic lane. As Elmore exited the vehicle, a Toyota Camry was approaching the collision scene from the south, police said. The driver of the Toyota saw the Ford stopped in the traffic lane, and swerved into the adjacent lane to avoid hitting the disabled vehicle. As the Toyota driver turned into the other northbound lane, she saw Elmore running on the freeway but was unable to avoid hitting him, authorities said. The front of the Toyota struck Elmore, causing fatal injuries to the San Jose man. Emergency personnel

attempted to render aid to Elmore but were unable to revive him at the scene, police said. Police do not think alcohol or drugs were a factor in the collision.

Motorcyclist hit by drunk driver

A motorcyclist from San Jose died after he was hit by a drunken driver in an SUV on Watsonville Road near Gilroy Aug. 3, according to the CHP. About 5:30pm, Eduardo Gonzalez, 32, of Watsonville, was driving a Dodge Durango at an unknown speed, southbound on Watsonville Road. As the vehicle

approached the intersection of Pharmer Road, in an unincorporated area of Santa Clara County, Gonzalez allowed the Durango to enter the northbound lane of Watsonville Road, according to CHP Officer Chris Miceli. The vehicle struck a Harley Davidson motorcycle driven by Dillon Oliver, 24, of San Jose. A 23-yearold passenger, also of San Jose, was riding on the back of the motorcycle. The force of the impact ejected Oliver and his passenger from the motorcycle, authorities said. Oliver suffered fatal injuries. Paramedics who arrived on the scene attempted

Preparation Is Essential

Because the timeframes are so short, preparation is key to meeting the notice requirements. Employers should have a process in place to respond to Notices of Inspection. Employers should identify who in their organization would likely receive a Notice of Inspection and confirm that person knows how to respond.

destination. GWC staff are dedicated to this goal knowing they are often the initial contact for visitors to the area and that first impression is so impactful.

And now, for the readers who love data, I want to be sure to include in my article, recently released Gilroy revenue statistics. This week, we received the 2018 second quarter reports from VisaVue Travel. GWC in partnership with Visit California subscribes to these reports to track domestic and international spending in Gilroy by Visa cardholders. For the quarter ending 6/30/18, total domestic spend (excluding Gilroy residents) was $93,629,128 which is a 4.4% increase over prior year. The top three market segments by spend amount were retail, gas and oil and restaurants. International spend for the quarter ending 6/30/18 was $4,026,906 which is a 5.3% decrease from prior year. The top five originating countries by spend amount are China, Germany, Taiwan, Canada & Mexico. The top three market segments by spend amount are apparel & accessories, department stores and lodging. The data in these reports are followed closely by GWC staff to help guide advertising and marketing decisions and are invaluable for analysis purposes throughout the year.

wo back-to-back events last month frame California’s educational conundrum.

it was 73.1 percent and for Latinos, the largest single bloc of K-12 students, it was 80.3 percent.

A Superior Court judge in Los Angeles County rebuffed efforts by state schools Supt. Tom Torlakson and other state officials to block a lawsuit alleging that California has failed to teach reading to some black and Latino children.

Even more alarming, the graduation rate for English-learners was just 67.1 percent, for foster children 50.8 percent and for “socioeconomically disadvantaged” kids 78.8 percent.

The suit, filed on behalf of children in Los Angeles, Stockton and Inglewood, is the latest effort by educational reform and civil rights groups to force the state to intervene in low-performing schools. “In a cruel irony, it is only while incarcerated that some young people learn to read,” the suit, filed by Public Counsel, a public interest law firm, and Morrison & Foerster, one of the state’s top law firms, declares. As they have in previous suits attempting to compel state intervention, Torlakson, et al, contend that the state has provided sufficient funds to local districts, so local educators should bear responsibility for properly educating kids. Gov. Jerry Brown has repeatedly opposed attempts to impose greater state oversight on whether local schools are wisely spending money meant to benefit poor and Englishlearner students and close what’s been termed the “achievement gap.” However, Judge Yvette Palazuelos wasn’t having it, ruling that “the state is ultimately responsible for public education” and allowing the suit to proceed. Predictably, Torlakson’s spokesman, Bill Ainsworth, said “the ruling is disappointing” and implied that it will be appealed. The second event was Torlakson’s release of high school graduation data for 2017, using a new methodology dictated by the federal government. Overall, he reported, 82.7 percent of California students who entered the ninth grade in 2013 were awarded regular diplomas four years later. That overall rate is not horrible, but when one looks at the details, the “achievement gap” persists. Asian students, including Filipinos, graduated at a 93 percent rate, trailed by whites at 87.3 percent, but for black students,

Those three groups are supposedly being helped by the Brown-sponsored program of providing extra money to districts where they are concentrated. “This is the latest in an endless series of wake-up calls to Sacramento, where inertia continues to prevent our public schools from meaningfully improving,” said Bill Lucia, president of EdVoice, an education reform group, adding, “These numbers are alarmingly low, especially for our state’s most vulnerable students.” There’s another important aspect to the graduation report. The big urban districts, such as Los Angeles Unified and Oakland Unified, have particularly low graduation rates, 76.1 percent and 70.3 percent respectively. Both, not surprisingly, have been plagued by managerial, political and financial turmoil. However, smaller districts, especially those in rural areas with very large numbers of Latino students, are doing much better. Students in Fresno County’s Parlier High School, for instance, are 99.1 percent Latino but it had a 94.1 percent graduation rate. Calexico Unified, adjacent to the Mexican border in impoverished Imperial County, is 99.4 percent Latino but had an 88.6 percent graduation rate. There’s a lesson there, and it might be that stricter accountability from Sacramento, as the lawsuit seeks, is needed to crack down on failing districts and compel them to replicate California’s small district successes.

Council OKs North Hecker Pass housing CONSTRUCTION OF 72 HOMES NEAR GOLF COURSE SET TO BEGIN SOON By Jaqueline McCool Reporter

City, contractor gave public mixed signals THREE-DAY SEWER PROJECT AFFECTS FIRST STREET BUSINESSES By Jaqueline McCool Reporter

Some businesses were forced to close their doors during the first days of

August because of sewer upgrade project on First Street. Gilroy city officials spent a couple of days attempting to clarify communications with business owners and residents about the project that began Aug.1 and appeared to have caused widespread confusion and anxiety.

The proposed area for the homes sits between the Gilroy Municipal Golf Course and Santa Teresa Boulevard. The 72-home development was originally designated to have 57 housing units, but developers have transferred 15 units from other housing clusters being developed along Hecker Pass. Four architectural styles will be included in the North cluster: Spanish Craftsman, French Country, Farmhouse and Mediterranean. At the Aug. 6 meeting the council and public were shown illustrations of each of the home styles. O’Strander said that following the City Council vote, the developer may begin work on the project, but plans must comply with what was approved by the council. Don DeLorenzo, operator of the Gilroy Municipal Golf Course, spoke in favor of the project at the meeting. He said Spiering “has really shown (himself) to be a good neighbor of the city golf course.” Developers agreed

to give the golf course $175,000 in anticipation of possible closure or disruptions that may be caused by construction. Proceeding his vote, Councilmember Peter LeroeMuñoz said, “This development exceeds the standards we hold for this region.” On July 2 the City Council narrowly approved plans for another segment of the Hecker Pass development, across Highway 152 from the new houses. The “agri-tourist” development drew opposition from a standing-room-only crowd at the meeting, and eventually was approved 4-3. Susan Mister, Gilroy community member, spoke against the development at the Aug. 6 meeting and said she did not want the North cluster approval to proceed the same way the “agri-tourist” development had. “I strongly urge you to take your time with this project,” said Mister. She urged the council to vote against the additional 15 homes transferred to the North cluster.

The work caused some businesses to close their doors while it was being completed. Ruth Ruiz, a new business owner on First Street, said, “We didn’t know what to do because we couldn’t use the water, so we had to close early. The second time they came by, they said we couldn’t use the restroom after 6 pm.” Ruiz felt the work was hurting her business, Fruteria Vallarta, on the days she had to close. “We just started two weeks ago, so we hope to stay open late,” she said.

Insituform, the contractor, posted signs—which Behzad contradicted with her statements— that said: “While the work is being performed, your sewer service connection will be temporarily sealed off. … To prevent water from escaping through any drain during the specified time period, turn off sump pumps which are connected to the sewer service and please do not wash clothes or dishes, take showers or baths or flush toilets.” Laura Cunningham, head of community

The Gilroy City Council unanimously approved the last phase of the North Hecker Pass project at its Aug. 6 meeting. The project will build 72 singlefamily homes on the east side of Hecker Pass Road and is part of the larger Hecker Pass Specific Plan. The city Planning Commission had accepted the plans for this development at a June 7 meeting, requesting only minor amendments. The commission was concerned with parking at the new neighborhood park, and unsure if the uphill topography would allow all residents to easily walk to the space. What exactly those designated parking spaces will look like will be discussed at future meetings between the city and the developers and monitored by the homeowner’s association.

The commission also suggested the council mandate that the park must be completed at the time of the 37th dwelling’s completion. The council also chose to amend the plans to include a disclosure to families purchasing the homes, making clear which schools children would be attending and that no busing system would be available. The council vote gave the green light for Meritage Homes to begin work on the project. When driving on Hecker Pass Road west of Santa Teresa, the sign for the Hecker Pass North development is surrounded by large piles of dirt. According to developer Skip Spiering, this is utility work being done to prepare for the roundabout that will eventually slow traffic in the middle of CA Highway 152 to help mitigate traffic coming from developments on both sides of the highway. Spiering said that Meritage Homes has begun the utility work on the roundabout.

outreach for the project, told the Dispatch in an email that going forward, there will be continued efforts to keep the public informed about the project. “A public meeting is being planned for late August to invite the public to learn more about the water line project,” said Cunningham. “Notification will be mailed and newspaper ads will be placed.” The next steps of the sewer project began Aug. 6 and are planned

to last through Aug. 20. Cunningham said crews will be performing manhole rehabilitation work that will last from 9am to 3pm. “There will be no impact to residential or business utility services,” said Cunningham. “There will be minimal impact on traffic as crews move along First Street from Wayland Lane to Monterey Road.” More information on the projects can be found at https://yourvoice. cityofgilroy.org/1st-street

Mayor confusion

WADE CROWFOOT

Protect the state’s water resources

n the latest Public Policy Institute of California poll, voters said drought, water supply and water pollution are the state’s most pressing environmental challenges. Californians recognize that water fuels our economy, grows our food and sustains our natural places. Here are some of the perils: • During the recent drought, small communities in the San Joaquin Valley literally ran out of water • Upwards of one million Californians do not have clean and safe water in their homes • Aquifers, which provide between 30 and 60 percent of our annual water supply, are severely depleted • Many farming communities face uncertain water supplies year-to-year • More than 82 percent of California’s native freshwater fish will be extinct in the next century, some studies show Climate change, which brings more frequent and severe droughts and flooding, compounds all this. These facts should compel action. And they have, but only to an extent. During our epic drought, California lawmakers passed the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act to balance our groundwater supplies. That same year, state voters approved a $7 billion bond to fund construction of vital water projects. On June 5, voters approved Proposition 68, providing $2 billion for water projects. These improvements are part of Gov. Jerry Brown’s Water Action Plan to strengthen California’s water future. Most water experts agree that the action plan is a smart path forward. But much work remains. It wasn’t supposed to be like this. In 2012, a state law established access to water as a human right. Six years later, we have failed to deliver this basic right. In response, community-based groups and agricultural leaders have forged a solution to fund

water pollution treatment in poor communities (bonds cannot fund ongoing activities like this). In the closing days of the legislative session, lawmakers should prioritize enacting this Safe and Affordable Drinking Water Fund, originally introduced in Senate Bill 623 by Sen. Bill Monning, whose 17th District includes Morgan Hill and Gilroy, and now part of the Governor’s budget. Another imperative involves the Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers and the Delta. Gov. Brown’s team has been working to bring water users and conservation groups together to craft an agreement that provides greater water predictability to farms and cities while bringing back fish and wildlife populations from the brink of extinction. Failure to compromise will lead to regulatory action and likely litigation, more water supply uncertainty, and further environmental decline. The next governor will take office in less than six months. The new administration should prioritize water and build on progress made by this administration. High on this list should be capturing winter rain by getting more water into aquifers. We waste billions of gallons of water each year that could be captured for use during dry months. Expanding floodplains in parts of the Central Valley can reduce flood risks while expanding habitat for endangered salmon. Farmers would be paid to lend their land for this purpose. A new water bond on the November ballot would provide funding for these and other innovative water solutions. California water issues often get reduced to fish vs. farms, cities vs. rural and north vs. south. These are false choices. We need to meet our water challenges together. Wade Crowfoot, chief executive officer of the Water Foundation, wrote this piece for CalMatters a nonpartisan, nonprofit journalism project based in Sacramento.

To the editor, On the surface, most cities are governed by a council and a single mayor who are sensitive to and directed by the wishes of voters. Beneath the surface, most would admit, there are other forces pressing upon elected officials. Primary among these pressures is money — money for campaigns, money to line pockets, money, money, money. Money from a wealthy few can speak louder than the voices of many voters and can blind officials to the needs of a community. What can citizens do in an attempt to counterbalance the pressure of big money? They can contribute small donations, ask tough questions of candidates, rally friends and neighbors, and vote! Four city council seats are up for election in November, the opportunity to make Gilroy’s government more democratic is coming up soon. A recent issue that has some of us scratching our heads is how common sense was shoved aside in order to approve the Apartment Complex Masquerading as Agri-Tourism (ACMAT) to be built across from the Gilroy Golf Course. Citizens cried out about safety, noise and light pollution, high levels of traffic, immense size, a gargantuan parking lot and the introduction of apartments (I’m sorry, “live-work units”) that many suspect will eventually occupy the entire complex as businesses proposed for the site turn out to be unprofitable. Brave and ethical representatives on the Planning Commission (Tom Fisher, Sam Kim and Rebecca Armendariz) and City Council (Roland Velasco and Dion Bracco) listened to the people and voted to send the project back to the drawing boards, saying even if it fit the letter of the Hecker Pass Plan, it did not fit the intent. But at the Planning Commission other interests brought the vote to a tie and at the City Council the project was approved. Questions have swirled about why some officials voted for approval. One theory is that Gilroy has, in effect, three mayors and that two of these lobbied in favor of the ACMAT project. Both of these two now-unofficial mayors have long favored housing developers, even a project north of town that would have created a bipolar city. One of these mayors resigned after voters rejected his proposal to give him a blank check for shaping up the city as he saw fit. There were rumors he was so stung by this rejection he wanted to move out of state — so much for devotion to Gilroy. The other now-unofficial mayor was appointed to complete his compadre’s term, but was rejected in the next election, as was the giant project north of town (if you want an example of citizens gathering to defeat special interests, look to Gilroy Growing Smarter’s successful campaign to create an Urban Growth Boundary that foiled the bipolar city project). One council member said her vote was to protect the city from the lawsuit someone suggested would come, presumably from a lawyer working for the project. Who really decides the future of Gilroy?

Attendance off 20 percent at Garlic Festival FEW INCIDENTS REPORTED AT 40TH ANNUAL FUN FOOD FEST Staff Report

four for being minors in possession of alcohol and one for furnishing alcohol to a minor, according to police. Two of the detained minors were also in possession of fake identification cards. On Sunday, July 29, police arrested five people on suspicion of public intoxication, according to the press release. Two of these suspects were repeat offenders from the previous day’s Garlic Festival arrests. In addition to these arrests, officers also escorted three Garlic Festival patrons out of the park for disorderly conduct and failing to follow the festival’s rules. Officers from Gilroy, Morgan Hill and Campbell police departments, as well as Santa Clara County Probation, California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation— Parole Services, California Highway Patrol and ABC patrolled the Garlic Festival grounds throughout the event. Competition on the Garlic Cook-Off Stage kicked off on Friday with the Champions for Charity cooking challenge, emceed by MasterChefSeason 7 Winner Shaun O’Neale. Four teams of local first responders competed in three elimination rounds (appetizer, entrée, and dessert) to win $3,000 for their favorite charity.

Attendance at the 40th annual Gilroy Garlic Festival fell off more than 20 percent from last year’s record crowds, despite cooler temperatures. The three-day festival that ended July 29 reported a total of 80,646 guests, compared to 102,667 guests in 2017. Visitors included representatives from Gilroy’s sister city Takko-Machi, Japan, along with several hundred Bay Area residents who rode into town on the weekend on the Caltrain Garlic Train. Foodies and families from across the globe congregated in Gilroy for the annual celebration of all things garlic. In addition to the traditional favorites on Gourmet Alley, the festival’s first-ever signature cocktail, the Garlic Festival Mule, proved so popular that it sold out over the three-day event, according to the festival. 2018 Gilroy Garlic Festival President Todd Trekell said, “I’m truly honored to have served as President for the Gilroy Garlic Festival’s 40th annual celebration. We had a great, easy-going crowd of garlic lovers enjoying garlicky gourmet food and live music—as well as new experiences like the Electric Clove Dance Tent and the Garlic Festival Mule cocktail. It was a thrill to welcome legends like Iron

Chef Michael Symon and Olympic Champion Brian Boitano to join in our celebration.” “I am just incredibly grateful for the dedication of our association and over 4,000 community volunteers who worked so hard to make this event a tremendous success,” he said in a statement. Despite the size of the crowd, police reported just 15 arrests for minor infractions, at the Christmas Hill Park festival site. Gilroy Police reported a total of 15 arrests—all related to alcohol—during the three-day Garlic Festival at Christmas Hill Park. Additionally, police escorted three people out of the festival grounds Sunday for disobeying the event’s rules. Local authorities praised the overall good behavior of the weekend festival crowd and the work of law enforcement officers from multiple agencies in keeping the peace. “There were no reported assaults on festival grounds over the weekend,” reads a press release from the Gilroy Police Department. “The law enforcement presence at the festival helped ensure the event was free of violence and safe for everyone to enjoy.” On Friday, July 27, Gilroy Police arrested two people for public intoxication, the press release says. One of these suspects also had a warrant for his arrest. On Saturday, July 28, Gilroy Police and agents from California Alcohol Beverage Control made eight arrests: three on suspicion of public intoxication,

BUSY WALKWAY Garlic Festival crowds enjoyed cooler

temperatures at Christmas Hill Park.

Garlic Chef Jr. competition, hosted by O’Neale on Friday afternoon, eight young chefs faced off for the chance to win a notebook computer valued at $500. The top prize winner was Addyson Dell, age 6, who needed a stool to reach the stove but still wowed the judges with her Garlic Mac N Cheese with Crispy Garlic Chicken Tenders and Roasted Asparagus. On Saturday, Will Simbol from New York, NY claimed the top prize of $5,000 (and the coveted garlic crown) in the Great Garlic CookOff. This contest, one of the nation’s most prestigious amateur cooking contests, was hosted by Olympic Champion and Food Network star Brian Boitano. Simbol’s winning dish was Savory

Crunchy Freshy Tangy Shrimpy Herby Garlic Lumpia Wrap. Second place was awarded to Lidia Haddadian (from Pasadena, CA) for Roasted Garlic and Potato Pierogis w/Garlic Shallot Bacon Jam, and third place was awarded to Leah Lyon (from Ada, OK) for her A-MAIZ-in Garlic-Chili Buttered Rose' Lobster Tails with Flamenco Pesto. On Sunday, four professional chefs faced off in the Iron Chef-style “Garlic Showdown,” hosted by Iron Chef and co-host of “The Chew” Michael Symon. Contestants had to prepare two dishes using a mystery basket of ingredients that included dried prunes, fresh prunes, and fresh plums – and plenty of garlic, too, of course. For the second year in a row, Chef Carlos Pineda

from the Culinary Academy and Kneaded Bakery at Rebekah's Children's Services in Gilroy won the $3,000 prize and will be donating his winnings directly to the Rebekah’s Children’s Services Culinary Academy.

No opposition as deadline draws near CANDIDACY FILING PERIOD ENDS AUG. 10 Scott Forstner Reporter

With a little less than a week left in the candidacy filing period for the November election, voters may not have much of a choice in selecting local school board trustees. Candidates were running unopposed as of Aug. 7 in 10 of the races for board of education seats spanning the communities of Morgan Hill, Gilroy and Hollister. Linda Tulett, manager of candidate services with Santa Clara County’s Registrar of Voters, said they expect a rush of additional candidates as the filing period nears the Aug. 10 cutoff date. She pointed to the website sccvote.org, where potential candidates can find a guide with the steps necessary for filing for office. The same can be done for San Benito County at sbcvote.us/ registrar-of-voters. “It’s fairly easy to file for a school district (seat),” Tulett said Aug. 2. “Next week, we expect to be crazy. Just like voter registration,

everyone walks in the door thinking they’re the only one who waited until the last minute. I’ve have a couple people waiting at the front counter now, and on Friday, there will probably be 15 at the front counter.” The last day to file for office is Aug. 10. If an incumbent does not run for re-election, the nomination period for that office is then extended until 5pm Aug. 15. “It all depends on the election and the environment of the election,” said Angela Curro, assistant county clerk and recorder for San Benito County, as to how many and how early candidates file. “What we’re seeing is pretty typical. Actually, we had a busy start to nominations, which is unusual. However, not all candidates file early.” In San Benito County’s two largest school districts, all three San Benito High School District trustee area seats have just a single candidate in each race, while four candidates—incumbent Patricia Moore along with challengers Stephen Kain, Brande Barrett and Carlotta Torres—have pulled papers for the three open seats on the Hollister School District board.

San Benito district incumbents Steve Delay (Trustee Area 3) and Juan Robledo (TA4) are seeking re-election. The other incumbent, Bill Tiffany, does not plan to seek office, but Miguel Sahagun Jr. has filed to fill Tiffany’s Trustee Area 2 seat. On the Hollister board, Peter Hernandez will not return as he is in a November runoff for a seat on the County Board of Supervisors. Incumbent Elsa Rodriguez has yet to pull papers. Two challengers, Jason Hopkins and Michael Alcorn in Trustee Area 7, have pulled papers for the two San Benito County trustee area seats on the Gavilan Community College Joint District, with incumbents Lois Locci and Kent Child not planning to run again. In the other two Gavilan races on the Nov. 6 ballot, incumbent Walt Glines (Trustee Area 3, Gilroy) will be up against challenger Edwin Diaz, while incumbent Laura Perry of Morgan Hill is the only candidate who has expressed official interest in her Trustee Area 1 seat. In Morgan Hill Unified School District, five trustee

seats are up for grabs with only two currently contested, as incumbent Gino Borgioli and challenger Heather Orosco pulled papers for Trustee Area 3 while newcomers Robert Guynn and Jill Provencal will compete for the Trustee Area 4 seat. Peter Mandel, John Horner and Vanessa Sutter have filed Trustee Areas 1,2, and 5 without any opposition. “Typically, school offices don’t necessarily file early,” Curro said. “It all depends on the individual.” In Gilroy Unified School District, where four at-large seats are set to expire in November, one incumbent (Linda Piceno) and two challengers (Enrique Diaz and Anisha Munshi) have pulled papers. Incumbent Patricia Midtgaard does plan to seek re-election, while fellow GUSD trustees Heather Bass and Jaime Ross have yet to pull papers. On the county boards, incumbent Claudia Rossi of Morgan Hill, is currently running unopposed for her Trustee Area 7 seat on the Santa Clara County Board of Education, while incumbent Joan Campbell-Garcia (District 3) and Reb Monaco (District 4) are the lone

NOTICE OF PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY’S REQUEST TO INCREASE RATES FOR ELECTRIC TRANSPORTATION PROJECTS IN SCHOOLS AND STATE PARKS (A.18-07-020)

NOTICE OF PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY’S REQUEST TO INCREASE RATES FOR ELECTRIC TRANSPORTATION PROJECTS (A.18-07-021)

SUMMARY On July 30, 2018, Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) filed its Electric Transportation application for schools and state parks with the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC). The application requests an increase in rates of $7.4 million for the following electric vehicle pilot programs: •

Schools: Installation of electric vehicle charging stations in specific schools in Alameda, Fresno, and San Joaquin counties. Along with charging stations and related utility infrastructure, PG&E will host educational events and provide information to increase awareness and knowledge of clean transportation.

•

State Parks: Installation of electric vehicle charging stations and related utility infrastructure at select California state parks for use by both state park fleet vehicles and park visitors.

BACKGROUND PG&E’s application will support California’s goal of increasing the number of electric vehicle charging stations and will help promote the adoption of electric vehicles across the state. Schools and parks are both highly visible locations where people come to learn and observe. Installing electric vehicle charging stations at these locations not only provides easy access to students, employees and the public, but also creates a platform to educate the public on how the use of electric vehicles can benefit California. HOW WILL PG&E’S APPLICATION AFFECT ME? Many customers receive bundled electric service from PG&E, meaning they receive electric generation, transmission and distribution services. Based on rates currently in effect, the bill for a typical residential bundled non-CARE customer using 500 kWh per month would increase $111.59 to $111.61, or 0.02 percent.

SUMMARY On July 30, 2018, Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) filed its Electric Transportation Pilot Project application with the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC). This application requests $4.13 million to expand the electric transportation initiatives offered by PG&E and help California meet the goals outlined in Senate Bill 350: Clean Energy & Pollution Reduction Act (SB 350). The pilot is designed to provide electric vehicle charging stations for moderate to low income residential customers and provide education in these communities to support more customers getting electric vehicles. BACKGROUND The goals of SB 350 are to reduce dependence on petroleum, meet air quality standards, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. In 2017, PG&E and the other California utility companies submitted their first applications under SB 350 to promote widespread electric transportation. In early 2018, the CPUC approved the applications and authorized the utilities to submit applications requesting to increase rates for the approved projects. HOW WILL PG&E’S APPLICATION AFFECT ME? Many customers receive bundled electric service from PG&E, meaning they receive electric generation, transmission and distribution services. Based on rates currently in effect, the bill for a typical residential bundled non-CARE customer using 500 kWh per month would increase from $111.59 to $111.61, or 0.02 percent. Actual impacts will vary depending on energy usage.

Actual impacts will vary depending on energy usage.

HOW WILL PG&E’S APPLICATION AFFECT CUSTOMERS WHO BUY ELECTRICITY FROM A THIRD PARTY? Direct Access and Community Choice Aggregation customers only receive electric transmission and distribution services from PG&E. On average, these customers will see an increase of 0.02 percent.

Departing Load customers do not receive electric generation, transmission or distribution services from PG&E. However, they are required to pay certain charges as required by law or CPUC decision. These customers will not be impacted by this application.

HOW DO I FIND OUT MORE ABOUT PG&E’S PROPOSALS? If you have questions about PG&E’s filing, please contact PG&E at 1-800-743-5000. For TTY, call 1-800-652-4712.

New business delivers its BBQ meals GALA OFFERS BARBECUE MEALS, BUT WITHOUT A DINING ROOM Bryce Stoepfel Reporter

Maybe your Fourth of July barbecue didn’t go off as planned. Burned, undercooked or dropped on the ground and covered with ants—on some backyard chefs the art of the grill is lost. There may be hope on the way. Anand Gala, the owner of nine Famous Dave’s franchises,

including a location in Gilroy, is developing barbecue kitchens, with no seating areas or bars, that specialize in home delivery or catering via Uber Eats and Amazon Restaurants. “It’s a commercial kitchen without a dining room attached,” Gala said. “It is one of the many options when we consider how to bring more of the best barbecue to more people.” What he described as a virtual restaurant, Gala’s kitchens will focus solely on barbecuing— no seats, bar stools, servers, hosts or any other features of

sit-down restaurants. Virtual kitchens serve as a central preparation and distribution center that would use a far smaller space than a traditional restaurant. By reducing overhead, Gala hopes to expand the reach of his restaurants into more areas. “It’s a way we could expand our brand,” Gala said. “A typical full-service restaurant may not work because an area may not have the right density to support a full-service restaurant. It could be a way to test a market with the online delivery, and if it exceeds expectations, we

Ace isis the the place place Ace with the the helpful helpful with hardware folks folks hardware for 90 90 years! years! for

could look into having a full-service restaurant.” New technologies often disrupt and displace longstanding jobs. Last year in March, Pedro Virgen, owner of Union Taxi Company in Gilroy, said that since the arrival of Uber and Lyft, his company went from having eight cabs and a dozen employees to three cabs and two drivers. Gala said this won’t happen with his barbecue kitchens. “We feel that we have the best people, and this does not change that,” Gala said. “We can create

more jobs without cannibalizing existing jobs.” To preserve the barbecue’s quality, said Gala, the faster it gets to customers, the better. “With barbecue, there is an extensive and careful process of cooking and smoking the meat which can take up to four or 12 hours depending on the protein,” Gala said. “We don’t want there to be a degradation of the product, so we would need to limit the delivery radius, or our customers can pick up their food.” While Gala works toward perfecting the

barbecue elements of the virtual kitchen, his company is also working on a smartphone app. “We have an app that we will offer soon that would be an extension of our current online ordering system,” Gala said. “We will also join with other delivery platforms like Uber Eats and Amazon Restaurants.” At this time, Gala does not plan to add alcohol to his delivery plans. “We hope to come to a conclusion within the next several months,” Gala said when asked when the barbecue would be ready.

Gala will focus solely on barbecuing— no seats, bar stools, servers, hosts or any other features of sit-down restaurants Para más detalles llame al 1-800-660-6789 • 詳情請致電 1-800-893-9555

NOTICE OF EVIDENTIARY HEARING REGARDING PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY’S REQUEST TO INCREASE RATES FOR THE ENERGY RESOURCE RECOVERY ACCOUNT COMPLIANCE APPLICATION (A.18-02-015) Scheduled August 27 – September 10, 2018 (excluding September 3, the Labor Day holiday), at 9:30 a.m. at the address below: California Public Utilities Commission Courtroom State Office Building 505 Van Ness Avenue San Francisco, CA 94102 SUMMARY This Evidentiary Hearing has been scheduled by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) to review the 2017 Energy Resource Recovery Account (ERRA) Compliance application filed with the CPUC on February 28, 2018. The purpose of this application is to review costs recorded to the ERRA Balancing Account from the prior year. The application also includes a request to increase rates to recover $4.74 million in costs related to the seismic (earthquake) studies performed at Diablo Canyon Power Plant. BACKGROUND The ERRA is used to record fuel and purchased power costs that can be recovered in rates. PG&E recovers these costs with no mark up for return or profit. The purpose of this ERRA Compliance proceeding is to review PG&E’s costs associated with obtaining energy for customers and approve rate increases for other program costs noted above. The CPUC will review PG&E’s costs to ensure compliance with the previously approved forecast and energy purchasing plans. HOW WILL PG&E’S APPLICATION AFFECT ME? Many customers receive bundled electric service from PG&E, meaning they receive electric generation, transmission and distribution services. Based on rates in effect at the time the application was submitted, the bill for a typical residential nonCARE customer using 500 kWh per month would increase from $111.33 to $111.41 or 0.07 percent. Actual bill impacts will vary depending on electricity usage. Direct Access, Community Choice Aggregation and Departing Load customers will not see a rate increase in the generation component of their bills as a result of this application.

SAVING FISH Herman Garcia says state wastes water.

David Bruce Pinot Noir

CA water wars ignited Trump wildfire tweet Trump Tweet, 1 Board on July 6, following nine years of research, of a controversial final draft plan to increase water flows through the Lower San Joaquin River and its tributaries—the Stanislaus, Tuolumne and Merced rivers—to prevent an ecological crisis, including the total collapse of fisheries. If approved, the plan would shift some water away from the farms and ranches of the Central Valley, raising objections from Republican lawmakers and claims that Democrats and environmentalists favored “fish over farms.” “The San Francisco Bay-Delta is an ecosystem in crisis,”said state Water Board Chair Felicia Marcus. “The board’s challenge is to balance multiple valuable uses of water—for fish and wildlife, agriculture, urban, recreation and other uses.” “Californians want a healthy environment, healthy agriculture, and healthy communities, not one at the expense of the others. That requires the water wars to yield to collective efforts to help fish and wildlife through voluntary action, which the proposed plan seeks to reward.”

The state Water Board will consider adopting a final plan on Aug. 21. The California Water Action Plan was signed into law by Gov. Jerry Brown in 2014, with the goal of moving, by 2019, towards “a more reliable water supply for California’s farms and communities, restoring important wildlife habitat and species and helping the state’s water systems and environment become more resilient.” In July 2017, the Dispatch had reported that Laird promised an investigation into the reported waste of massive amounts of water by the Santa Clara Valley Water District and others, in a move that could impact communities statewide and save billions of gallons of water. Garcia, who had traveled to Sacramento to urge an investigation and a change in current law, is the founding president and CEO of the Gilroy-based Coastal Habitat Restoration and Environmental Education, or CHEER. The conservation nonprofit restores and protects waterways and steelhead trout in the four-county Pajaro River Watershed. Garcia discovered the water-waste incident in October 2016, when

massive amounts of water were released from Uvas Reservoir after three days of rain had drenched the 1,300-square-mile watershed that encompasses all or parts of Santa Clara, Santa Cruz, Monterey and San Benito counties. As for the President’s claims connecting California water policies and wildfires, here is the assessment that Peter Gleick, an Oakland scientist and founder of The Pacific Institute, offered to the Mother Jones website this week: “Both of the President’s tweets reveal a profound misunderstanding of the way California water works. It’s not that we’re diverting water into the Pacific Ocean. The tiny amount of water that reaches the Pacific Ocean these days is what’s left after we’ve diverted the vast majority of our rivers to cities and farms. He just has this completely backward. And furthermore, there’s no water policy that would have made these fires worse. We don’t take water from the forest. The forest provides water to use, and water is allocated to farmers and to cities and a little bit to the fish. And what’s left is in the rivers. And it flows down to our ecosystems.”

PRESIDENT TRUMP’S ‘WILDFIRE/ WATER TWEETS’ Aug.5—”California wildfires are being magnified & made much worse by bad environmental laws which aren’t allowing massive amount of readily available water to be properly utilized. It is being diverted into the Pacific Ocean. Must also tree clear to stop fire spreading!” Aug.6—”Governor Jerry Brown must allow the Free Flow of the vast amounts of water coming from the North and foolishly being diverted into the Pacific Ocean. Can be used for fires, farming and everything else. Think of California with plenty of Water - Nice! Fast Federal govt. Approvals.”

In 2016, Fish and Wildlife suspended the rescue permits across the state for non-governmental organizations, unless they are accompanied by a state-certified biologist. “The state is denying our efforts with burdensome regulations.” Garcia said he collected about 2,000 signatures on a petition supporting the march at last month’s Gilroy Garlic Festival.

A Gilroy-based environmental group says that for nearly two years, revised state regulations have thwarted its efforts to rescue steelhead trout in the Pajaro Valley watershed. Frustrated that the state agencies charged with preserving federal protected fish have effectively ended his group’s fish-rescue

efforts, Gilroy’s Herman Garcia said he will be leading a 150-mile walk from Gilroy to Sacramento next month to draw attention to the issue. The purpose of the march, said Garcia, is to change the California Dept. of Fish and Wildlife regulations and policies regarding Steelhead Trout rescue-and-restoration permits for volunteer like CHEER. CHEER historically has received permits allowing its volunteers to rescue the federally protected steelhead trout.

will donate proceeds from the dance, set for 7-10pm, to breast cancer research. “People have had ideas, like charging $35 for both days, but the county wants to know whether it will be 5,000 people per day or 10,000 people throughout the weekend—they want to know exactly how many people will be there,” Martin said. “They’re worried about the traffic and security, so they want to know exactly what the numbers will be.” Social media have been a boon for the Gilroy Rodeo. Within the last 28 days, almost 40,000 people have viewed the rodeo’s Facebook page, while 14,000 have checked it out. Earlier this week Martin was still working out which beer distributor the rodeo will contract with. The choice between Bottomley Distributing

Now that the Garlic Festival has come and gone, it’s about time for Gilroy’s next weekend event, this weekend. The Gilroy Rodeo is returning after a 62-year hiatus. Tickets are now on sale for the Aug. 11 and 12 rodeo at gilroyrodeo.com. By keeping ticket prices low, along with offering free parking and $5 beer, rodeo organizer Erik Martin aims to make the event at 2365 Dunlap Ave. both affordable and family-friendly. “The whole idea is to make so that you can bring your whole family for

$40 a day,” Martin said. “Where else can you go for $40 a day?” Getting to the point where they can sell tickets has been a rocky road. Securing all the permits from Santa Clara County for security, traffic, bleachers and everything else under the sun has been similar to staying on top of a bucking bronc. Radio ads for the Gilroy Rodeo began two weeks ago. Martin hopes that the reach of the ads, spanning the Bay Area, Sacramento, Modesto, into the Central Valley, and south toward Salinas, will help broaden interest in the revived Gilroy Rodeo. Advance tickets cost $20, kids ages 12 and younger get in for free, and the parking is free. Tickets sold at the gate are $25. Tickets for an Aug. 11 dance are available at the gate for $25. The rodeo

ROUGH RIDERS The reborn Gilroy Rodeo, Aug. 11, and 12, will feature rough stock events, like the bucking bronc. company out of Milpitas and DBI Beverage in San Jose will determine what kind of brew the rodeo will serve since Bottomley serves Anheuser Busch

MIXED MARTIAL ARTS

Submitted

Champ is here ALL BUSINESS Javier Mendez, the head coach and founder of the American Kickboxing Academy (AKA), works the pads with UFC champion and Gilroy resident Daniel Cormier, whose recent knockout of Stipe Miocic made him only the second UFC fighter to hold two belts simultaneously.

GILROY’S CORMIER TRAINS AT AKA IN SJ emanuel lee Sports Editor

Editor’s note: This is the first of a two-part article, with the conclusion in next week’s edition.

bother to point out the photo of himself holding a belt signifying his status as a former kickboxing world champion. Like most of his peers of his generation, Mendez grew up admiring the late Bruce Lee, who became a cultural icon through his acting, directing and martial arts pedigree. “I decided to go to martial arts (at 18) in part because of Bruce Lee,” Mendez said. “He was a huge inspiration to millions of kids and adults, and still to this day he is admired because of his philosophy, what he did and how he was able to do it.” Even though he didn’t grow up with a dream to become a world-class kickboxer—I had zero ambition to be fighter, zero,” he said—combat sports gave him something to do. At 12, Mendez started to participate in open gym boxing sessions in the cafeteria at Sylvandale Middle School in San Jose, under coaches who would give instructions while smoking cigars. “They never showed me anything,” Mendez said, “but it was a start.” Even though Mendez had a father who was never there physically or emotionally, Mendez said it provided him with motivation of what not to be. “I’m going to be a man in every way my dad wasn’t,” he said. Mendez said his dad pitied himself and spent most of his money on alcohol and gambling, often coming home drunk on weekends. Although it was tough to accept, it served a greater purpose, as Mendez developed a chip—check that, a boulder— on his shoulders, allowing him to attack every opponent or goal with a tenacity that he might not have otherwise gained. “I refused to accept my life was going to be like his,” Mendez said. “I grew up around people (outside of my dad) who used the race card all the time. I refused to fall into that line of thinking. I’m not saying it (racism) doesn’t happen; I’m just saying nothing was going to stop

“You will never amount to anything.” Javier Mendez needed to hear those words only once for it to have a profound effect on his life. Mendez was 12 years old when he heard those words from his dad, Norberto, who died in 1999. “He only needed to say it one time,” the 58-year-old Mendez said. “It stuck with me and from there I was out to prove him wrong. That was the driving force that got me where I am today.” That would be as one of the top Mixed Martial Arts trainers in the world. As the founder and head coach of the famed American Kickboxing Academy (AKA)— its current roster includes UFC heavyweight and light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier and UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov— Mendez is at the top of his profession, with no signs of coming down from his perch any time soon. The unlikely story of San Jose and the South Valley area being home and producing some of MMA’s best coaches and fighters—Mendez lives in Hollister, Cormier in Gilroy, former UFC heavyweight champion and AKA member Cain Velasquez resides in Gilroy and AKA manager Bob Cook lives in Tres Pinos—traces back to a father’s words that have served as fuel for Mendez’s insatiable appetite to continually improve and stay on top of the fight game. “My father was somewhat joking when he said those words, but they still stung,” said Mendez, who was born in Mexico but raised in San Jose

and graduated from Andrew Hill High. “My dad never asked me one time how was my grades. He never asked one time what I wanted to do (as a career). It was more like you’re never going to be anything. I’m like, ‘Uh, yes I am.’ I refused to believe that I wouldn’t be anything. I didn’t allow anything to get in the way of what I wanted to do.” Tony Castro, a strength and conditioning coach who trains Velasquez out of his garage and also works with Cormier in a variety of capacities, is a longtime Hollister resident. But how did San Jose and the South Valley area become the epicenter of one of the most fertile training bases for MMA athletes? It all starts with Mendez, who was 12 years old when he got caught stealing a couple of crescent wrenches from a thrift store. The police drove Mendez back to his parents’ house and knocked on the door before letting Norberto know what his son had done. “Oh, you did well,” Norberto told Javier. “He didn’t punish me, so I punished myself,” Mendez said. I swore I would never do that again because it wasn’t something I wanted to do. I’m so glad I got caught because who knows what it could’ve led to. But that is all my dad said. He wasn’t a good father whatsoever, but he did love us.” Tucked in a non-descript strip mall in south San Jose— just minutes away from Morgan Hill—AKA has another moniker: The house of champions. Dozens of pictures adorn the wall above the main training room, displaying the faces of fighters who have trained or are currently training with AKA. The list is downright impressive. In addition to current titleholders Cormier and Nurmagomedov, Velasquez, legendary MMA figure Frank Shamrock, Luke Rockhold, B.J. Penn, Jon Fitch and Cung Le—just to name a few— have toiled on the AKA mats. As Mendez showed a reporter around the facility, he didn’t

ALL-TIME GREAT Daniel Cormier beams with pride after knocking out Stipe Miocic to win the UFC heavyweight championship on July 7. me from where I was going to be. I’m going to keep trying.” Make no mistake: While Mendez was refreshingly candid and vulnerable in talking about his upbringing, he reflected no bitterness or ill will toward his father in the slightest. Despite everything that happened, Mendez said he loved his dad and simply wished Norberto would’ve spent more time with him. And yet who knows what would’ve happened had Norberto turned out to be a better father and praised his son instead of saying Javier would amount to nothing?

Would Mendez have developed that boulder on his shoulder, the very thing that became his calling card and helped carry him to lofty heights as a fighter, head coach and owner? Mendez spent 11 years as a professional kickboxer, winning the ISKA light cruiserweight title in 1992 and the light heavyweight world title in 1995. He’s trained some of the greatest fighters in history in Cormier and Nurmagomedov—and yet he counts the longevity of AKA as his greatest accomplishment and pride.

If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call NATIONWIDE POSTING & PUBLICATION at (916) 939-0772 or visit this Internet Web site www.nationwideposting.com using the file number assigned to this case 205-067170. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.
