More residents of the City of Gilroy are charged with a crime than in almost every other ZIP code in Santa Clara County, according to the District Attorney’s annual report for 2018 released this week. In the report compiled by the DA’s Crime Strategies Unit, 1,982 residents of Gilroy’s 05020 were charged by the DA's office with one or more crimes, according to the report. The only ZIP code in the county that produced more criminal defendants was downtown San Jose, where 2,052 residents were charged in 2018. The report noted a correlation between the five ZIP codes in the county representing the most defendants, and the socioeconomic factors of those neighborhoods. “Looking more closely at our defendant ZIP codes, we find that defendants most

day. The next camping nights at the park, off Hecker Pass Road, are July 6, July 27, Aug. 31 and Sept. 14. For more information, visit https://www.gilroygardens. org/stay/park-camp-nights. More photos, Page 8.
School closing imminent in 2020 DISTRICT WARNS FEWER STUDENTS, LESS AID COULD FORCE CLOSING Scott Forstner Reporter

As enrollment at Gilroy elementary schools continues on a downward trend—which directly affects the amount of state aid they receive—the closing of at least one school is becoming more likely, say school officials. There are 54 empty classrooms
in all at Gilroy Unified School District campuses, according to Mark Good, a veteran trustee and current vice president of the board of education. “That’s a huge amount, and for the last two years, our enrollment has declined. We have almost 400 fewer students,” Good said. “It doesn’t take a lot to figure out that we are gonna have to close a school.” District leaders have estimated a $5 million hit in average daily attendance, with enrollment steadily shrinking despite
the boom of new housing developments within the school district boundaries. The school board already approved nearly $3 million in budget cuts, but it’s not enough. A school closure is estimated to save $750,000 per year, according to staff. “If we don’t start taking action now, we’re going to be in a financial crisis,” said Good, who is one of two school board members (president James Pace being the other) on the Superintendent’s Advisory Committee on Closing Schools. ➝ School Closure, 4

Schools to spend $130M PLAN IS $3 MILLION LESS THAN 2018-19 Scott Forstner Reporter
Deborah Flores Cuts, approved by the board Feb. 14, include nearly $2 million in staff reductions touching various departments, with the rest made by reductions in supplemental programs previously offered by district. “These budget reductions are necessary to maintain fiscal stability, as the district continues to cope with declining enrollment and the corresponding loss of revenue,” according to staff. Enrollment was at 11,118 students in the 2018-19 school term, down from 11,290 from the previous year and 11,483 from the 201617 year. With a loss of 365 students in two years, the district’s average daily attendance allotment ($10,505 per pupil) reduced by $3.8 million, according to the staff report.
Locals in Mt. Madonna graduation SAN JOSE STATE AND CHAPMAN UNIVERSITY ARE DESTINATIONS Staff Report
Priyanka Bharghavan of Morgan Hill was a co-valedictorian of the Class of 2019 at Mount Madonna School, located on Summit Road west of Gilroy.
The 2019 high school graduation ceremony honored 11 graduates on June 13 at the school’s upper campus. Bharghavan will attend the University of California, Berkeley this fall. “My favorite Mount Madonna experience was our recent class trip to India and our stay at the
Sri Ram Ashram,” she said in a statement. In addition to Bharghavan, Mount Madonna School’s Class of 2019 includes Imogen Cockrum of Gilroy, who is headed to San Jose State University, and Samith Lakka, who will enroll at Chapman University in the fall.
Special to the Dispatch
Facing twin challenges of fewer students and less money, the Gilroy Unified School District Board of Education approved an annual budget for the 2019-20 school year that includes nearly $3 million in budget cuts from the previous year and dips into cash reserves. The total general fund revenues expected for the 2019-20 year are $128,946,781, with nearly half (48 percent) coming from property taxes and 36 percent from state aid, according to a June 13 staff report. The Local Control Funding Formula, used by the state to allocate funds by school district, yields in $105.4 million for the district. However, budgeted 2019-20 expenditures for GUSD are nearly $2 million more—$130,639,071— with 42 percent (about $45.5 million) going to certificated salaries, 24 percent ($20.5 million) to employee benefits and 15 percent ($12.7 million) to classified salaries. The deficit budget includes $2.8 million in cuts from 201819 spending levels, which were approved by the district trustees.
Employer pension contributions, CalSTRS and CalPERS, increased by $1.7 million in the general fund, according to the staff report. Also an increased cost for the upcoming year is special education, for which GUSD has $24.2 million budgeted in 2019-20. According to the district’s multiyear projection chart, revenues will increase to $130,624,498 in 202021 and $133,361,992 in 2021-22. However, each future fiscal year will come with $1 million in budget reductions. District staff are moving toward the closing of a school by August 2020, which they estimate will save $750,000. The district’s reserves fund was nearly $10 million at the end of the 2018-19 school year. Along with the budget, the board also approved the district’s Local Control Accountability Plan, which outlines “the goals, services and spending plan that address the needs of all pupils and each significant subgroup of the district.” The LCAP is a three-year plan based on eight state and local priorities: basic conditions of learning; implementation of Common Core State Standards; parental involvement; student achievement; student engagement; school climate course access; and other student outcomes.

New Kumon Center to begin Gilroy tutoring OFFERS MATH, READING HELP FOR STUDENTS Staff report
From the moment Bader Lakhat’s wife, Masuma, opened her Kumon Center two years ago, he saw an impact on the community that he couldn’t ignore. In addition to watching business at the Kumon of Morgan Hill thrive, Bader observed the community’s enthusiasm in helping their children achieve academic independence and freedom— an opportunity that may not have been present before. After working as an electrical engineer for three decades, Bader decided it was time to bring that opportunity to another local town and join his wife as a Kumon franchisee. Today, he is the proud owner of Kumon Math and Reading Center of Gilroy. “By opening this center to
develop children to become better learners, I hope to enable them to teach themselves new concepts,” said Lakhat. “After seeing such great progress at my wife’s Kumon Center, I’m looking forward to having the same positive impact in Gilroy.” Kumon is a national firm that focuses on achieving academic independence for children by instilling principles of self-learning, critical thinking and time management. Students that participate in Kumon often study years beyond their grade level and develop academic freedom With approximately four million students enrolled at nearly 25,000 centers worldwide, a Kuman statement said the company believes there are many opportunities to expand Kumon into new communities. Kumon is an afterschool math and reading enrichment program that serves children in preschool through high school.

Elliott added, “I think there has been an increase in people’s…understanding, which has made people feel safer to come forward, knowing that (others) won't ostracize or demean them.” In 2016-17, Community Solutions aided 131 rape and sexual assault victims in South County, The DA’s office also reported that juvenile crime rose sharply in Santa Clara County, with 798 minors charged with a crime in 2018, compared to 592 in 2017. That's about a 35-percent increase, according to the report. Juvenile crimes showing the biggest increase from 2017 to 2018 are robbery (238 charges in 2018, a 98-percent increase) and carjacking (79 charges in 2018,a 182-percent increase).

The CSU report notes that in 2014, federal authorities updated the definition of rape to broaden the types of cases counted. That redefining of the crime accounts for some of the recent years' increase; but experts agree that victims are more likely to come forward to authorities than in previous years. Erica Elliott, Sexual Assault and Prevention Program Manager of Gilroy-based Community Solutions mental health counseling center, said rape and sexual assault used to be a “taboo topic that people are hidden from.” In recent years, however, the public discussion of sexual assault

The DA also reported that incidents of rape and sexual assault have increased in Santa Clara County over the last year, and experts think the increase is at least partially related to victims' growing willingness to report the crimes. The DA’s annual report also found that while reports of sexual assaults are on the rise in Santa Clara County, authorities are encouraged that victims are seemingly more likely to report their assailant or rapist than they have in the past.
Impact of #metoo
in almost all forms of media has become commonplace, bolstered by the “#metoo” movement and other efforts to support victims. Furthermore, federal authorities have enacted more laws in recent years supporting victims, further encouraging survivors to talk about their incidents, Elliott explained. “Having those conversations helps people,” Elliott said. “When I grew up, I was taught it was a stranger in a scary van. But realistically, 90 percent of sexual assaults happen by people we know and trust. It can happen to anybody. People's response to sexual assault victims has become generally a lot more positive, where I used to hear a lot more victim blaming.”

commonly reside in poorer, more dangerous and less healthy neighborhoods,” reads the report. The median household income in Gilroy is about $90,000 (compared to about $107,000 for the county overall), with a 6 percent unemployment rate (5.7 percent in the county) and 8.4 percent of families living below the poverty line (5.6 percent in the county overall), according to the DA's report. Gilroy Mayor Roland Velasco said the number of defendants from his city says more about the quality of the Gilroy Police Department than any actual crime trends. “I think the report shows that our police officers are proactive, assertive and very busy making arrests and that's reflected in the crime report,” Velasco said. The mayor added that the city council has approved a “pilot program bringing on two additional officers for ‘quality of life’ crimes.”
“These statistics are an invaluable tool in our efforts to prevent sexual assault and other violent crimes,” DA Jeff Rosen said. “We are ever hopeful that more survivors will come forward to let their powerful voices be heard and help us protect our community.” In 2018, the DA's office filed charges for 279 sexual assault cases. These include charges of assault with intent to commit sexual act, rape, statutory rape, pimping, pandering, aggravated sexual assault, child sexual assault and other related crimes. In 2017, the number of such filings was 268. In 2016, sexual assault charge filings was up to 284. In San Jose alone, there were 615 reports of rape in 2018, according to the report. That number has been steadily increasing since 2011, and in 2017 there were 571 rapes reported in San Jose.

The committee has met five times since January, and the next step is to wait and see what kindergarten enrollment is for the first day of school in August. If the student count is down as expected, the committee’s recommendation will be presented to the board at its Aug. 22 meeting, according to Good. The birth rate in Gilroy’s 95020 ZIP code has been on a steady decline, from 1,1019 new births in 2006 to 797 in 2017, according to a June 13 staff presentation to the board. “There’s nothing to indicate that ( kindergarten enrollment) is going to be larger. At that time, we will take a look and see where we are,” Good said. “The reality is we have to close one school, and in the next couple of years it could be two schools if the numbers keep going the way they are.” It wasn’t too long ago that Gilroy school leaders were allocating bond money to build a new elementary school, which was designed and planned off Santa Teresa Boulevard near Ascencion Solorsano Middle School. However, a demographic study killed that plan, and the district focused on renovating its middle schools instead.

Good sat on the school board in the late ’90s, when the district recommended closing San Ysidro School due to safety concerns. At that time, the board voted against the closure, only to have the school close its doors a few years later. “There’s a lot of emotions that go into doing something like that, and if we do close a school, which school are we going to close?” Good said. “No matter what the committee recommends, it is going to be up to the school board to decide.” The committee outlined evaluation criteria with eight elements: 1) There are neighboring schools to receive closing school’s students 2) School enrollment is low 3) Resident populations vs. attending
enrollment for the school 4) General education students are bused to the school 5) Condition of facility and/or operating costs 6) The school has limited capacity for future growth 7) School closure will prevent keeping geographical neighborhoods together 8) School houses district-wide or special education programs “We expect that a decision will be made no later than the end of September for an August 2020 closure,” said Good, adding that the district would more than likely lease out the school rather than sell the land. “Four or five years from now, things can chance and we don’t want to be behind the gun to have to start a new school.”

CA budget: a closer look
C
alifornia’s political leaders, Democrats all, are touting a new state budget that expands spending on services for the state’s poor while building reserves. That’s true, as far as it goes. However, there are some very big caveats in the $213 billion 201920 budget, the first by Gov. Gavin Newsom. The first caveat is that while expanding health insurance coverage (even to some undocumented adults), early childhood education, an expanded earned income tax credit and other services may alleviate symptoms, they ignore root causes of California’s highest-in-the-nation poverty. The most important factor in having 20 percent of Californians living in poverty, according to the Census Bureau, and another 20 percent in near poverty, according to the Public Policy Institute of California, is the state’s ridiculously high cost of living, especially for housing. How high? Recent calculations by the Council for Community and Economic Research reveal that four of the 10 U.S. metropolitan areas with the highest costs of living are in California, topped by San Francisco, 91.4 percent above the national average. Looking at the situation from a different standpoint, California’s high cost of living depresses real personal income growth, according to the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA). While the state’s economy was booming in 2017, and generating record amounts of taxable income for the state treasury, the BEA says in a new report, its “real personal income” growth, adjusted for cost of living, was just 2.6 percent, lower than all of its neighboring states. Los Angeles-Long Beach had the slowest real income growth of any large metropolitan area at just 1.6 percent. While nearly all California living costs tend to be high, housing is particularly so, thanks to our chronic inability to keep up with demand and the Capitol’s chronic inability to reduce barriers to construction. That brings us to the next caveat about
the new budget—the increasingly precarious state of California’s economy. “The California economy is slowing down,” Jerry Nickelsburg, director of the UCLA Anderson Forecast, wrote in a report this month. “The state is, quite simply, running out of people to be employed.” In decades past, when California’s economy was booming and needed new workers, we would see an influx from elsewhere. But immigration has slowed to a trickle, and we actually have a net loss in state-to-state movements, thanks again to our high living costs. Late last year, economists at Cal Lutheran University issued a report on Ventura County, saying its economy is stagnant because of a lack of workers and blaming housing availability and costs for the situation. What’s true in Ventura is increasingly true of the entire state, recent data indicate. The new budget plants the seeds of potentially massive entitlements that could backfire if recession hits. Although Newsom has characterized much of the budget’s new spending as one-time, he is raising expectations that would be politically difficult to ignore in a crunch. Reserves are being built to cushion an economic downturn, but they fall way short of fully closing the gaps that even a moderate recession would create, which explains why the Legislature’s budget analyst recommended diverting more of current operating surpluses into reserves. The Public Policy Institute of California, in its own look into long-term economic and fiscal trends, reminds us that “California’s current mix of revenue streams creates considerable volatility,” particularly since the budget is inordinately dependent on taxing high-income Californians whose personal incomes are extremely variable. Newsom’s predecessor, Jerry Brown, started building reserves and warned in his final budget, “What’s out there is darkness, uncertainty, decline and recession, so good luck, baby.” Dan Walters writes for CalMatters, a non-profit journalism project in Sacramento.

With homelessness worsening, Californians are rightly frustrated that our state, with its abundance of wealth and resources, has not made better progress in helping people get off the streets and into housing. There is plenty of blame to go around. Major contributing factors include the challenges lower- and middle-income families face finding a place they can afford. Los Angeles helped more than 21,000 homeless into permanent housing last year, but the homeless population increased because even more residents lost housing. These challenges exist statewide. More than 2.2 million extremely low-income and very low-income renter households are competing for only 664,000 affordable rental homes. • That leaves more than 1.5 million of California’s lowest-income families without access to housing. Many of these families end up homeless. • Housing affordability and homelessness are critical issues for my organization, the League of California Cities, and the cities we represent. We see firsthand in our cities the struggle of families that cannot afford housing, or homeless ones who need our support. That’s why the League supports a comprehensive package of proposals to fund homeless services and to increase housing production, particularly for low- and very low-income families. The league supported the passage of Proposition 1 in 2018, the $4 billion affordable housing bond, and Proposition 2, a $2 billion bond for supportive housing for homeless individuals. The League of California Cities also supports Gov. Gavin Newsom’s proposals to expedite the allocation of the housing bond funds, provide $650 million to address homelessness and dedicate another $1 billion to increasing the availability of affordable housing tax credits and fund infill infrastructure. The league appreciates efforts of legislative leaders to restore more robust tax increment financing mechanisms in Senate Bill 5. This measure would create the Affordable Housing and Community Development Program and provide cities and counties the resources we need to support affordable housing. When the state abolished redevelopment in 2011, it wiped out the only source of ongoing funding available to local governments to build affordable housing. SB 5 would help fill this gap by establishing a strong partnership between the state and local governments. Specifically, SB 5 would allow cities and counties to maintain property tax increment in dedicated zones where they’ve developed a state-approved plan. SB 5 also would commit $200 million in tax increment funding annually beginning in 2020. Unlike former redevelopment, state approval is required for any investment, ensuring these investments are maximized. SB 5 would create up to 86,000 new and rehabilitated housing units over the next 10 years, targeting extremely low-income families particularly vulnerable to homelessness. The bill also contains strong accountability provisions and state oversight. Because our homeless problem is so closely linked to housing affordability, the league is working with the Legislature and Newsom administration on proposals that would provide incentives to cities to plan, zone and approve more housing. Cities are entrusted with local land use authority. We recognize we have an obligation to do more to plan for and incentivize housing construction. There is no single or easy solution to address homelessness, but building more affordable housing is a major part of the answer. That is why the league strongly supports Newsom’s budget proposals, which provide more resources, and SB 5 to help support the construction of more housing for low- and very lowincome Californians. Carolyn Coleman is executive director of the League of California Cities.

Families camp at the park Dozens of families woke up on the morning of Father’s Day inside the family tent on the grounds of Gilroy Gardens, after a night of fun, food and movies, in the monthly summer adventure begun last year at the City of Gilroy theme park. Here we see, clockwise, from upper left, the Sanchez family, the Bishop family, the Suesue family and the Buckley family.

GILROY DISPATCH

Low- and middle-income families throughout California are not able to find affordable housing, and SB 330 is a proposal that will remove barriers to constructing housing stock we so desperately need. —BILL MONNING
Bill Monning
Cities concerned about CA housing bill LOCAL LAWMAKERS GET LETTERS OF OPPOSITION TO LEGISLATION FROM SOME OFFICIALS Jaqueline McCool Reporter
California city leaders have long prided themselves on the growth plans and housing requirements tailormade for their cities. Gilroy has its own growth measure passed in 2016: Measure H. Now municipalities across California fear their planning could be put to an end if the state Housing Crisis Act of 2019 passes in the California Assembly and moves back to the Senate. The bill, introduced by state Sen. Nancy Skinner (D-Berkeley), would suspend local
housing regulations for 10 years and create time limits for processing housing permits. The bill's introduction was the majority party’s response to Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom’s call in his February State of the State address for municipalities to build more affordable housing options. However, city officials in neighboring Morgan Hill worry that the Housing Crisis Act as written would cause a strain on infrastructure and put an end to years of community planning, including local voter-approved Measure S growth control restrictions. Gilroy Community Engagement Coordinator Rachelle Bedell said city staff was not aware of the Gilroy City Council taking any formal position on the bill.
SB 330 began as a senate bill in the California Senate and has now moved to the State Assembly. There have been amendments made to the bill in the assembly, so if it’s passed in the assembly it will go back to the senate for another vote. Morgan Hill Mayor Rich Constantine sent a letter on behalf of the city to Skinner along with copies to the Assemblymember for the 30th District, Robert Rivas and District 17 State Sen. Bill Monning. “Morgan Hill is committed to quality marketrate and affordable housing and believes that the general concepts in the bill are worthy, although under the proposed legislation, the city would no longer be able to enforce
its voter-approved growth control measure. This very measure is responsible for achieving one of every eight units in town, as permanent deed-restricted housing. Unlimited growth in Morgan Hill, which is still a developing city, places a great strain on the City’s infrastructure,” read the letter. Monning has expressed his support for Skinner's bill, while Rivas said he has not yet made up his mind. The assembly committee hearings on the Housing Crisis Act of 2019 were scheduled for June 19 and July 10. If the committees endorse the bill on July 10, there will be a floor vote on Aug. 11. If the bill is passed through the assembly, then the amended version will go back to the senate for another vote.
The bill is currently in the assembly’s Housing and Community Development Committee and is then scheduled to go to the Local Government Committee. In an emailed statement Monning told this paper, “While I appreciate and respect the City of Morgan Hill’s opposition to Senator Skinner’s Senate Bill (SB) 330, I joined with the region’s legislative delegation in supporting the bill because the state is in the midst of a historic housing crisis. Low- and middleincome families throughout California are not able to find affordable housing, and SB 330 is a proposal that will remove barriers to constructing housing stock we so desperately need.”
30th District Assembly member Robert Rivas said he’s listening to constituent concerns when it comes to the bill. The Democrat, whose district includes Gilroy, said he is set to review it in the Local Government Committee of the Assembly.
Rivas said he’s listening to constituent concerns when it comes to the bill, and said he is set to review it in the Local Government Committee of the Assembly. In a press release from Skinner’s office, Skinner said the bill is necessary. “California’s housing crisis has reached historic levels. The state ranks 49th in the nation when it comes to housing units per capita, and the housing crisis is estimated to cost the state $140 billion a year in lost economic output,” Sen. Skinner said. “The acute shortage of housing also has sent prices skyrocketing, displacing residents from their homes and deepening the state’s poverty and homelessness crises.”

Students serve community
Elementary students at Pacific Point Christian School in Gilroy have been busy with service projects this year. According to elementary school principal Amanda Riley, the club started in December, and the students have done seven service projects this year. The students give up their lunch playtime on Wednesdays to prep the projects, and serve after school the last Wednesday of the month out in the community. Some of the projects include distributing candy canes and caroling at Merrill Gardens, and bringing cards and blue baskets of goodies to the police stations and red baskets and cards of goodies to the fire station. The students also made 200 lunches that were donated to St. Joseph’s Family Center, and sold 200 bracelets to support the SVCC orphanage in Haiti.
Nearly 60 students from Gilroy, Morgan Hill, San Martin, Hollister and San Juan Bautista were among the 166 to graduate from Monte Vista Christian School May 24 in Watsonville. More than 300 students from the five communities attend the K-12 private school.

NOTICE OF PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY’S REQUEST TO CHANGE RATES FOR THE RECOVERY OF ENERGY PURCHASES AND CREDITS FROM GREENHOUSE GAS ALLOWANCES (A.19-06-001) Submitted
SUMMARY On June 3, 2019, Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) filed its 2020 Energy Resource Recovery Account (ERRA) Forecast application with the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) requesting approval to change rates for the following: • Recovery of $2.9 billion in costs related to fuel needed to produce electricity as well as market-based costs of buying energy from third parties to serve bundled load • Setting certain charges for bundled and departing load customers for the recovery of above-market costs of PG&E’s portfolio procured for these customers before their departure, including the Power Charge Indifference Adjustment (PCIA), Ongoing Competition Transition Charge (CTC) and Cost Allocation Mechanism (CAM) • Public policy mandates recovered through the Tree Mortality Non-bypassable Charge (TMNBC) • Return of $391.5 million to eligible customers for the sale of greenhouse gas emission allowances, including the California Climate Credit for residential customers and returns for eligible nonresidential customers Exact amounts are subject to change and to CPUC regulatory approval. PG&E will provide the CPUC with updated amounts later in the year to ensure the most current information is used to set customer rates. BACKGROUND The ERRA is used to record fuel and purchased power costs which can be recovered in rates. While this may result in a change in rates, PG&E recovers these costs with no mark up for return or profit. The purpose of this application is to forecast costs of obtaining energy for customers and also to approve the amount to be returned to customers from the sale of greenhouse gas emission allowances for the calendar year of 2020. If the CPUC approves this application, PG&E will begin to recover its costs in electric rates effective January 1, 2020. At the end of 2020, PG&E will compare actual costs to the amounts forecasted in this application and will incorporate any differences in next year’s application. HOW WILL PG&E’S APPLICATION AFFECT ME? Most customers receive bundled electric service from PG&E, meaning they receive electric generation, transmission and distribution services. This information includes the California Climate Credit for residential customers and greenhouse gas allowance returns for eligible nonresidential customers. Based on rates currently in effect, the bill for a typical residential NonCARE customer using 500 kWh per month would increase from $117.53 to $117.65 or 0.1%. Actual impacts will vary depending on energy usage. Twice a year, in April and October, eligible residential customers will also receive a California Climate Credit in the amount of approximately $36.67, for a yearly total of approximately $73.34. HOW WILL PG&E’S APPLICATION AFFECT NONBUNDLED CUSTOMERS? Direct Access (DA) and Community Choice Aggregation (CCA) customers only receive electric transmission and distribution services from PG&E. PG&E does not purchase energy for these customers. However, as mentioned above, this application addresses recovery of certain costs incurred before their departure. Residential DA/CCA customers also receive the benefit of the California Climate Credit. In addition, eligible nonresidential DA and CCA customers receive the benefit of the greenhouse gas allowance returns. The impact of PG&E’s application on these customers is an average increase of 4.4%. Another category of nonbundled customers is Departing Load. These customers do not receive electric generation, transmission or distribution services from PG&E. However, these customers are required to pay certain charges by law or CPUC decision. The impact of PG&E’s application on these customers is an average increase of 0.2%. Detailed rate information was provided in a bill insert sent directly to customers. 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 1-800652-4712. If you would like a copy of PG&E’s filing and exhibits, please write to PG&E at the address below: Pacific Gas and Electric Company 2020 ERRA Forecast Application (A.19-06-001) P.O. Box 7442 San Francisco, CA 94120 A copy of PG&E’s filing and exhibits is also available for review at the CPUC’s Central Files office by appointment only. For more information, contact aljcentralfilesid@cpuc.ca.gov or 1-415-703-2045. PG&E’s application (without exhibits) is available on the CPUC’s website at www.cpuc.ca.gov. CPUC PROCESS This application will be assigned to an Administrative Law Judge (Judge) who will determine how to receive evidence and other related information necessary for the CPUC to establish a record upon which to base its decision. Evidentiary hearings may be held where parties will present their testimony and may be subject to cross-examination by other parties. These evidentiary hearings are open to the public, but only those who are formal parties in the case can participate. After considering all proposals and evidence presented during the hearings, 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 that is open to the public. The California Public Advocates Office (CalPA) may review this application. CalPA is the independent consumer advocate within the CPUC with a legislative mandate to represent investor-owned utility customers to obtain the lowest possible rate for service consistent with reliable and safe service levels. CalPA has a multidisciplinary staff with expertise in economics, finance, accounting and engineering. For more information about CalPA, please call 1-415-703-1584, email PublicAdvocatesOffice@cpuc.ca.gov or visit CalPA’s website at www.publicadvocates.cpuc.ca.gov.

Teen trains dog at SBHS
Gilroy driver faces charge in fatal crash
RAMIREZ OPENS DOOR FOR GUIDE DOGS FOR THE BLIND Scott Forstner Reporter
SUSPECT REMAINS IN CUSTODY; 16-YEAR-OLD VICTIM IDENTIFIED Michael Moore Editor
Isael Velarde, a Gilroy resident accused of crashing a vehicle and leaving his severely injured passenger to die on the road just north of Morgan Hill on June 6, faces more than 10 years in prison for his involvement in the collision and death, according to authorities. Velarde, 18, was arraigned last week on charges of vehicular manslaughter, DUI causing injury and driving while unlicensed, Santa Clara County Deputy District Attorney Daniel Borca said. For the most serious charge—felony vehicular manslaughter—Velarde could be sentenced to 10 years, eight months in prison if convicted. The Santa Clara County Coroner's Office identified the victim of the fatal Isael Velarde crash as 16-yearold Joey Pineda of Gilroy. The vehicle collision resulting in the charges against Velarde occurred just before 4am June 6, when San Jose police officers responded to a report of a traffic incident with major injuries at Monterey Road and Palm Avenue, according to police. Investigating officers, as well as officers responding from the California Highway Patrol, determined that Velarde was driving a Toyota Camry northbound when he crossed into the southbound lanes and continued north before striking a center median guardrail. A juvenile passenger was ejected from the Toyota as a result of that impact, police said. A passing witness stopped to help and saw a juvenile male lying in the roadway. Velarde fled the scene, with an adult passenger still in the vehicle, just after the witness contacted him. The juvenile was pronounced dead at the scene when officers arrived. Velarde continued driving northbound in the southbound lanes of Monterey Road, according to police. Responding CHP officers located the Toyota, made a traffic stop at Monterey Road and Bailey Avenue and arrested Velarde. Velarde remains in custody at Santa Clara County Jail in lieu of $311,000, Borca said. His next court date is scheduled for July 17 at the Hall of Justice in San Jose.
Special to the Freelance
After learning how a friend in Gilroy started a Guide Dogs for the Blind project, 16-year-old Alexandria Ramirez wanted to do the same thing in Hollister for her supervised agricultural experience. She first needed to get clearance from San Benito High School, because the service animal in training would accompany Ramirez to her classes throughout the day. “FIrst, I presented the idea to the three ag advisers, and they were all on board for it,” said Ramirez, who then introduced her plan to San Benito principal Adrian Ramirez and district Superintendent Shawn Tennenbaum. “They were all supportive of what I wanted to do, and they want to see if this program has the potential to grow as well.” So Ramirez began to bring Michelin, her yellow lab-retriever “Guide Dog mix in training,” onto the SBHS campus to continue training. Michelin’s attended school with Ramirez from May 20 through the end of the year. “It did take a little while for them to get used to me bringing a dog to school so often. All my teachers were on board with it,” Ramirez said. “Some of the students weren’t as informed about service dogs, so it was challenging at times. I had to explain to them that he’s not a pet and don’t call him over to you, and little things like that.” Assistant principal Claire Grissom sent a letter home to high school families notifying them of Ramirez’s project for Guide Dogs for the Blind. “We ask that you embrace our student’s efforts in raising a puppy owned by Guide Dogs for the Blind and who will be trained to perform tasks for people with disabilities,” Grissom wrote. “This dog will be attending school with the student as part of a volunteer project involved in socializing and training a dog who will go on to perform tasks for people with disabilities.” Service dogs like Michelin begin training at birth and continue for the first 15 months of their lives before they are matched with a person in need of their support. The main training facility is in San Rafael, where Michelin returned after school ended to complete his training. For Ramirez’s part, she brought Michelin with her not only to school but wherever she went around town. She taught him “not to get distracted” and “stay focused” while out in the

community. Additionally, Ramirez taught the service dog “how to greet people properly, not jump up on people and remain calm.” “Home life is especially key to their training. They have to be potty-trained, behave well in a crate and not chew on anything,” Ramirez said. “It’s definitely going to be tough [when Michelin goes to San Rafael]. Even though I only had him for a little bit, he’s with me literally every second of every day. I’m going to be sad.” As a member of the local Future Bubbles_quarter_419.pdf Farmers of America (FFA), Ramirez has raised pigs and lambs to show them at the San Benito County and Monterey County fairs, with some livestock going to market. So, knowing that Michelin is going to a home makes it easier to say goodbye, she said.

“I’m so excited because a lot of kids are asking me how they can do it and how they can get involved,” Ramirez said. “That’s what I want to see: other kids get involved for next year.” Ramirez, who just completed her junior year at SBHS, is staying involved with Guide Dogs for the Blind as well. She has her next service animal in training already. “We really want to thank her ag teachers and the school administration for being so supportive and so open to 1 2/12/19 2:50 PM the idea of having these service dogs in training on campus,” said Alexandria’s mother, Michelle Ramirez. “They made the experience very easy. ...We are so very grateful everyone was so open and made this happen so quickly.”

Catching on
COMING THROUGH Dylan McPhillips celebrates with his Sacramento State teammates after hitting a walkoff double in the 11th inning of the penultimate game of the Western Athletic Conference Tournament. The Hornets made history, winning six consecutive games to take the title.
MCPHILLIPS COMES UP CLUTCH FOR SAC STATE BASEBALL emanuel lee Sports Editor
Submitted
Dylan McPhillips’ sophomore season at Sacramento State University started off slow and ended on a high. First, the low. The catcher/designated hitter was out of commission, having undergone right knee surgery in October 2018. Born and raised in Gilroy, McPhillips missed the first month of the season only to come on strong at the end of the season. The 2017 Monte Vista Christian graduate played a key role in the Hornets advancing to a NCAA Tournament regional at Stanford. To get there, Sacramento State had to win the Western Athletic Conference Tournament, which it did in spectacular fashion. The Hornets, after losing their opening game in the six-team, double-elimination tournament, ran off six consecutive wins to take home the championship. It was a historic run, as the Hornets not only became the first team to win six straight elimination games to take home the WAC title, but they also eliminated all five of the other teams in the field. The championship round featured Sacramento State and Grand Canyon, which the Hornets would have to defeat twice after advancing out of the losers side of the bracket. In the first game, with one out in the bottom of the 11th inning, McPhillips hit a double down the left-field line to seal a 4-3 victory to set up a winner-take-all game, which the Hornets won, 5-4. In addition to his game-winning double, McPhillips drove in three runs in a 6-4 win over Utah Valley in an earlier elimination game. But it was the game-winning hit that McPhillips will never forget.
“I remember like it was yesterday,” he said. “I was looking for something that I could elevate and the pitcher threw me a couple of curve (balls) before that I didn’t hit very well. I was thinking fastball, fastball, fastball, and I saw the spin out of his hand, got extended and got a little lucky the ball was fair.” Perhaps it’s no surprise that McPhillips came through in a couple of key situations in the WAC Tournament and in the NCAA Stanford Regional, where the Hornets went 1-2. McPhillips relishes moments where he can be a difference-maker. “Everyone dreams of hitting a walk-off and wanting to be that guy I think boosts your confidence,” he said. “As soon as I get to the plate, I know I’m better than the pitcher. You have to have that mindset going in or it’s not going to turn out well. Confidence is probably 80 percent of the battle and 20 percent is reacting and using your physical ability. But if you don’t have a positive mentality and think you’re the better player, you’re defeated even before you go up to the plate.” The 5-foot-6, 167-pound McPhillips was one of the team’s top players in the Stanford Regional, finishing 4 for 8 over three games. McPhillips made an immediate impact at Sacramento State in his freshman year, starting 38 out of 45 games, all at catcher. This past season McPhillips played some games as a designated hitter, which was nice because catchers are susceptible to getting worn down as the physical demands are high. McPhillips, who is playing this summer for the Wenatchee AppleSox in Washington of the West Coast League, was able to make a smooth transition to the college game because of a solid mental approach. “On the ball field, a lot of freshmen tend to speed the game up,” he said. “Being able to stay calm and collected is the biggest thing that give freshmen success.” McPhillips plans on attacking his goals during the summer
BALLPLAYER Gilroy native Dylan McPhillips has had two strong seasons playing for Sacramento State. season, including being more aggressive as a catcher. For example, McPhillips didn’t do a whole lot of backpicking this past season, but he said that is “an easy way to get an out. I’m working on staying through the baseball and trying to hit a hard line drive to the middle of the field as well. … Summer ball is always fun. I’m coming in to work on some of the things I struggled with during the season so when I come back to Sac I would have made the improvements.”
It’s been a dream ride for McPhillips, who signed his letter of intent to play at Sacramento State in November of his senior year at MVC. It was the lone scholarship offer for McPhillips, but one must wonder why more four-year programs didn’t offer him a scholarship. McPhillips was playing in the Perfect Game World Series—a prestigious showcase tournament—in the summer before his senior year when the Sacramento State coaching staff noticed him.

JOSEPH “GENE” BOURDET NOVEMBER 24, 1922 – MAY 31, 2019
G
ene Bourdet, a native son of Hollister, died of natural causes on Friday, May 31st, at Sutter Memorial Hospital in Roseville, CA. Born November 24, 1922, Gene grew up on Southside with brother Len and sister Janis. The family moved into town during Gene’s high school years where he made all league in both baseball and football. Gene attended junior college in Salinas for a short time before going to Oakland to work in the shipyards. In 1943 he was drafted into the military and was sent to Bozeman, MT for training. There he met his future wife, Eileen Olson. After the war, Gene returned to Bozeman, married Eileen, and finished his education at Montana State College while playing quarterback for the Bobcats. At this time, he and Eileen began a “team” of their own (5 children over the next 13 years). His career included coaching at the high school level in both Fairfield, MT and Livingston, MT followed by a return to his alma mater in Bozeman. There he assisted in coaching both track and football. In 1958, he was appointed athletic director and head of the department for health and physical education. In 1970, Gene moved back to California where he served as athletic director for the Fresno State Bulldogs (1971-1978) and then as athletic director for the San Diego Aztecs (19791983). A heart attack in 1982 prompted Gene to eventually leave athletics. He (with Eileen) made the full circle back to Hollister in 1985 where he worked for his childhood friend, Sonny Paullus, in his real estate company at Ridgemark. For the next 30 years (Eileen passed away in 2008) they enjoyed living near sister Janis Rose and nephew David Grimes (wife Colleen) in the close knit community of Gene’s hometown. As his health declined the difficult decision was made in2015 to move to the Roseville area and live with family. Gene was a Rotarian for 48 years and a faithful member of the Immaculate Conception Church. He will be greatly missed. A service will be held at 10:30 AM on July 2nd at the Immaculate Conception Church in Tres Pinos, CA. Military honors and a reception will follow.

Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law. YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court.
