COUNCIL URGES ACTION ON BIKE PATH BOLLARDS

FATALITY PROMPTS LOOK AT FOSS CREEK TRAIL OBSTACLES

By Christian Kallen

When Santa Rosa chef Rob Reyes died on Aug. 23 by colliding with a bol lard along the West County Regional Trail in Graton, his friends, family and em ployees of the La Rosa res taurant he co-owned were shocked and even out raged that a “safety” fea ture could be fatal. So too were hundreds of local cy clists, the Sonoma County Bicycle Coalition and City Council member (and vice mayor) Ariel Kelley.

The cause of death was given as blunt force trauma to his chest, according to the Sonoma County Cor oner’s Office. At the Sept. 19 Healdsburg City Coun cil meeting after the inci dent, Kelley said she uses the Foss Creek bike and pedestrian path daily, and asked that the city look into the safety issues sur rounding bollards in town, in particular on the Foss Creek Trail.

Public Works Director and City Engineer Larry Zimmer undertook the “Use of Safety Bollards in Healdsburg” study, and had it prepared for discus sion at the Nov. 7 meeting of the council. That meet ing, however, was canceled by technical audio prob lems, and the topic was rescheduled for this past Monday’s council meeting, Nov. 21.

Zimmer’s Public Works recommendation was surprising and straight forward: “Based on cur rent Caltrans design stan dards, it is recommended that many of the bollards on the Foss Creek Path way can and should be removed.” In most cases, only the center bollard

Greyhound Girls Basketball Undefeated

5 0 RECORD HOLDS PROMISE FOR BIG YEAR TO COME

By Christian Kallen

Smith Robinson is rock ing again as the Healds burg High girls basketball team has won five straight in the young 2022-23 sea son. A sixth game Tues day night was canceled because Kelseyville said they couldn’t make it—but the Greyhounds victories have often come against larger schools, and by large margins: 55-13 over Napa, 48-29 over Petalu ma and 65-16 over Lower Lake at the Nov. 12 season opener.

Last year’s team played well too, 8-1 over their first nine games and fin ishing 7-3 in the league

for second place. And coach Steve Zichichi says they’re building on last year’s success. “I am very excited about this team as we are returning all five starters, led by our two returning 1st Team All League players, Hai ley Webb and Itzel Ortiz,” said Zichichi. Other start ers include Allie Espi noza, Ashley Behrens and Maddie Wagner

In fact, Saturday’s game against Rio Lindo was briefly stopped when Ortiz scored her 1,000th career point and was pre sented with a specially decorated game ball. Call ing the benchmark “quite an accomplishment,” Zichichi said, “she can also really do it all. She led our team in scoring the past two seasons and also can rebound with the best of players.”

Coach Zichichi had

nothing but praise for his other starters too, and the handful of players who round out the compact eight-person roster. He said point-guard Webb “controls everything that we do by expertly running our offense and spear heading our defense.” Ashley Behrens leads the team in rebounding, sophomore Allie Espi noza is the team’s leading scorer and Maddie Wag ner “brings senior lead ership to the team” as a four-year varsity player.

Two sophomores, Ruby Leffew and Hannah Sel lard, and freshman Ame lia Wickersham complete the team, and they all are getting playing time.

“This team is so much fun to coach, and makes me look forward to going to practice every day,” said the coach. “They are very business-like once

the lights come on dur ing games, and they have been handily defeating teams from much big ger schools, like Petaluma and Napa High.”

Their schedule begins to get a bit tougher with a Dec. 3 matchup with St. Joseph Notre Dame (Alameda) and the Red wood Empire Invitational Basketball Tournament (REIBT) that follows.

“Our team approach is to take each game one at a time, and the girls have bought into the phi losophy of not overlook ing any opponent,” said Zichichi.

That includes their next home game on Nov. 29 against Middletown, at Healdsburg High, 7pm.

The boys basketball varsity team defeated neighbor Rio Lindo Academy 49-26 on Nov. 17. They will play the

a city, county or state’s gov ernance—and the nation al balance of power as well.

The results of the Nov. 8 election in Healdsburg are all but certain in every race save one, the office of the 2-year seat on the city council. As of Mon day, Nov. 21, Ron Edwards held a 111-vote lead over Brigette Mansell, 1,938 to 1,827.

But at noon the next day, Mansell had narrowed the race, with her 2,012 to Edwards’ 2,072, only 60 votes behind.

Healdsburg’s Agrarian Roots Still Growing

‘ICONIC AGRARIAN BUILDING’ DEFINES NEW NORTH STREET CORRIDOR

By Christian Kallen

Some 90 people filled the upstairs hall at Lit tle Saint, the vegan cu linary compound at 25 North St., to attend the “season finale” of the three-part Design Dia logues 2022 on Monday, Nov. 14. Healdsburg’s ur ban planning entrepre neur Jim Heid produced the series, the second year of this gathering of ur ban professionals, archi tects, designers, planners and those with related interests, presented by CraftWork and the Mill District.

With design entre preneur Rob Forbes

hosting, and Healdsburg Museum’s Noah Jeppson and Weeklys CEO Dan Pulcrano (of the Tri bune ) sharing the stage, Healdsburg’s Commu nity Services Director Mark Themig took the event’s theme to heart: “Updating Our Past for the Future.” His task was made simple by the fact that there was no bet ter example of the topic than the stage he was sit ting on, and the building next door.

The SHED, launched in 2013, was consciously designed to emulate the functional agrarian archi tecture of the old ware house just to the west, along the train tracks with the Purity Products sign. Themig called it an “iconic agrarian build ing,” and pointed out it also served as the inspi ration for the newest city hall, built in 1996-97,

with its corrugated metal siding just a block away.

That entire corridor of North Street, between Healdsburg and Vine, has become testament to the town’s own agrarian roots, which has devel oped into the west down town Healdsburg style, the agrarian vernacular.

A walk into the past

A week earlier, Themig had been walking around the interior of the Purity Building, going over for the hundredth time how it was all going to take shape. “Did you know this used to be a can nery?” he asked. “Can ning was a big industry in Healdsburg at one time.” As was fruit pro duction, and all forms of agriculture—not just wine, and haute cuisine.

Behind a front office far worse for wear, a dou ble door opens into the

warehouse area, where steel girders soar into the dark ceiling and light slants in from low win dows. Aside from dust, a stack of construction material and some longdried paint, it is full of nothing… but potential.

The roof was obvi ously permeable to the elements, and the build ing was as insulated as a tin barn, but there’s something compelling

about a structure that big, over 10,000 square feet under one roof. Almost big enough for a foot ball game, with cheer leaders—but no specta tors. Not unless one took down one wall, which the more people thought about it, the better idea it seemed.

More than half way down the length of the warehouse, Themig stopped and gestured to the ground. “They’ll be demoing it all to ground level, up to about here. We’ll have some steps coming up to this plat form, which can be a multi-use area”—a stage, a demonstration, and with the addition of a kitchen and bathrooms, a social venue.

Sail-like canopies would cover much of the building footprint, both emulating and elevat ing the agrarian roots, but the absent east wall would allow a farmers’ market or other event to spill out into the park ing lot if necessary. The lot would accommodate up to 55 vehicles, and it will be the first part of the project completed, before the warehouse itself is rebuilt in two stages.

The Cerri family built the warehouse in the early 1920s as a grape and fruit distribution facility, next to the train tracks running along the property’s west side.

They didn’t thrive and sold the building in bank ruptcy five or six years later. Other fruit packing and canning businesses took over the structure, including Rosenberg Brothers and Del Monte, before Purity Chemi cal Products became the final commercial owner with its line of agricul tural products.

As Purity slowly went out of business, the city’s redevelopment agency purchased the property in 2004; Healdsburg took final possession in 2013 in the wake of the redevelopment agency cancellation. Then the city began working up several future visions for the acre property known as the Cerri Site Adaptive Reuse Project.

At first it was thought simply building a second downtown parking lot was the smart course—a proposal that would have leveled the building with out a trace. But after sev eral years of community meetings, study groups, focus groups, public pre sentations and open houses, in 2016 the city adopted a plan that pro posed the site as a per manent home for the farmers’ market and a community events facil ity. It would preserve the look of the façade and a portion of the building,

maximize parking and use a rain-permeable sur face for the parking lot.

Standing on the edge of the building’s plinth or platform, Themig pointed out where a large oak once sprawled across one corner of the prop erty. It was to be pre served in the plan, but nature took its course and the tree split and fell in the winter of 201819. The only trees that remain are a couple of dense stands of privet, a relentlessly invasive plant overused in subur ban landscaping, includ ing in Healdsburg.

The opportunity

A few days later, The mig picked up the sto ry at Little Saint. “By 2017, we had done the schematic design, done the community work, made changes and ad justments, but the prob lem was we didn’t have enough money. We had

about $1.5 million, but we needed $5-7 million.”

The community ser vices director made it a mission to track down the difference. “At one point, I started a con versation with Courtney Foley, who lived here in town, and asked if their family would be inter ested in a legacy project.” He then took up the con versation with her sis ter, Lindsay Foley, which concluded two years later when they met with William P. “Bill” Foley himself.

That resulted in a pledge up to $7 million from the Foley Fam ily Charitable Founda tion. (Though Foley has a footprint in Sonoma County through his wine acquisitions and restau rants, his wealth comes from investment bank ing and insurance.)

All they asked was naming rights: Thence forth, the former Cerri-

Rosenberg - Del MontePurity site would upon its reconstruction be known as the Foley Family Com munity Pavilion.

On the verge of the donation’s acceptance by the city, however, afford able housing came up as a social issue, and some wondered if downtown housing was a better use for the city’s prop erty. Themig said the city rejected that course and finally voted, on March 2, 2020, to accept the pledge for the site.

“And what happened on March 15?” prompted Themig. “COVID happened!”

That, understand ably, slowed things down. But as the pan demic’s challenges recede into recent mem ory, Themig said con struction plans are 85% complete, the project is headed for CEQA com pliance and signoff, and it will hopefully break ground next year on its first stage—construct ing the new parking lot.

Among its ben efits are that it revi talizes an underused property, activates a City Hall-Plaza con nection, and—perhaps most visibly—retains the iconic agrarian fla vor of Healdsburg. It’s also flexible: In a large event, North Street could be closed off and the community activi ties could extend into the West Parking lot across the street, where the farmers’ market is held now. It even has potential as a future SMART station, should the aged depot on Hud son Street not prove adequate.

Was this part of a larger plan—or did this new face of Healdsburg evolve on its own? From Themig’s narrative, it almost seemed as if it “just happened”—but it happened in a con scious, thoughtful pro cess that involved the community as well as its professional planners.

“In many ways, you

could say the Cerri building acted as the ‘genus loci’ for that cor ner of downtown,” Heid observed after the event at Little Saint. “Now (the city) is moving for ward with a design that both reflects its agrar ian roots in design, and the town’s agrarian present as home to the farmers’ market.”

Heid, the author of

a book called Building Small on creating com munities, sees the evo lution of the area as “a great example of build ing small….incremen tal, over time, one piece at a time, but when complete the sum is greater than the indi vidual parts, and pro vides a greater sense of place collectively than any one building could.”

By Pierre Ratte

Since Thanksgiving Day 1621, 201 years later there is much for which to be thankful. When sitting down this Thanksgiving, one should take a moment and imagine being by one self. Then one can imag ine the time and effort required to create each

PHOTO OF THE WEEK

thing one uses, eats and enjoys on a single day.

It’s a time to be thank ful, indeed, for all those creating use or beauty that is taken for granted. Oh, what a joy to be thankful.

Thanksgiving is a uniquely North Ameri can holiday, starting with

the Pilgrims’ Mayflower coming to a New World to create a new life. Selfreliant by necessity, the passengers drafted the Mayflower Compact, a social contract of consen sus decision-making, gov erning creation of a new settlement.

This was a unique

document of self-reliant authority and equality, with rights given to peo ple, not king. This con tract laid the foundations of America’s democracy, maturing 200 years later into Massachusetts’ con stitution, which pre-dates and served as a model for the U.S. Constitution.

Fun facts: The Pil grims’ Mayflower was a 106’ long, 25’ wide, fourmasted square rigger. It carried 102 passengers, 25 crew, animals and provisions. It set sail in July. It turned back twice because its inaptly named companion ship, Speed well, leaked.

Shoving off in Septem ber, sailing 66 days at sea, one person died, one per son was born (Oceanus Hopkins), and one person went overboard and was rescued. Approximately 50 passengers were Pil grims and 50 were “Strangers.” Strangers were persons with “skills,” accompanying Pilgrims as contracted help.

Because of this mix and the Mayflower stray ing off-course, causing a breach of contract result ing in a near mutiny of Strangers, Strangers and Pilgrims drafted and all signed the “Mayflower Compact,” pledging a civil and equal society, before disembarking to start a settlement. Row ing ashore by day, return ing to ship at night, lodg ings were built.

In March, the May flower crew returned to England. Approximately 50 people died that first winter. Learning from Native Americans, the settlers had a harvest and celebrated Thanksgiv ing in 1621 with approx imately 90 Wampano ags and Massasoits over a three-day feast. Thanksgiving was made a national holiday by Abraham Lincoln in 1863.

It’s a time to be thankful, indeed, for all those creating use or beauty that is taken for granted.

Bike Path Bollards

needs to remain, said Zimmer, because bol lards “make clear that vehicles are prohibited on the pathway, and pre vent inadvertent entry.

“Additionally, the cen ter bollard will be a phys ical means of indicating to cyclists they are enter ing a street and encour age slowing down,” he continued. Yellow strip ing would be added to the trail 40 feet before the obstacle and sur rounding the remaining bollard, which would be painted with reflective elements.

That solution drew qualified support from Eris Weaver, the exec utive director of the Sonoma County Bicy cle Coalition. In a let ter to the council and public comment during Monday’s meeting, she cited the same authority Zimmer did, the Califor nia Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, but pointed out it rec ommends simple signage and redesigned path entry and other remedial measures before bollards are used. Their advice on bollards was that “Such devices should be used only where extreme prob lems are encountered.”

“Bollards should be the last resort; instead, we’ve stuck bollards everywhere as a first resort,” Weaver told the council on Monday.

“There is no good data regarding the statistical risk of injury from collid ing with a bollard versus the risk of being struck by a driver on a bike path,” she wrote in her earlier letter to the city. “Anecdotally, while I’ve heard many stories about cyclists colliding with bollards, I’ve not heard any locally about vehicles driving on paths.”

Though Weaver’s informed testimony was valuable, Zimmer’s obli gation to run a public works department put less emphasis on imme diacy and more on pro cess. Still, her recom mendations and his were

not that far apart. Zim mer’s study suggested removing all but one bol lard, in the center of the bike lane, in most loca tions where multiple bol lards are currently in use.

One single example where Zimmer favored leaving a bollard in place, at a footbridge over Foss Creek adjacent to Grove Street, drew the most attention in the meet ing, possibly because the location is not far from the City Council Cham bers and familiar to city staff.

Zimmer’s argument for retaining the bol lards—one at each end of the small bridge—was that the footbridge was narrow, not designed for heavy loads, and any vehicle that tried to cross could cause extensive and expensive damage.

But the only way a vehicle could get on the path would be to enter it illegally from an unmarked driveway off Grove Street near the Montessori School in the first place. Why not block access to the trail at that point with bollards? asked Kelley. Though Zimmer expressed cau tion and was doubtful such an obstacle would be simple, he agreed to consider it.

The council and he agreed too and agreed to remove the bridge bol lards but increase sig nage and striping to call attention to the cross ing. “Council felt that the tight bridge crossing and the path curvature war ranted their removal,” summarized Zimmer the next day. “Their conclu sion is logical, and I can not disagree.”

The biggest discon nect appeared to be the timeline Zimmer rec ommended versus the heightened aware ness and concern over the risks. He presented a projection that remov ing about 25 bollards and adding appropriate strip ing would cost $55,000. Any alternatives to the recommended project

“will result in changes to that estimate,” such as an additional $35,000 if new flexible bollards were called for.

The Public Works pro posal suggested delaying the project until it could be scheduled and fit within the department’s contracted work, which would delay any work until Fiscal Year 2023-24 at the earliest, and possi bly a year beyond that.

“Since these bollards have been in place for many years, it is not con sidered urgent to replace them immediately, but that the work can be bud geted and scheduled for a future fiscal year,” read the report.

While four council members were generally supportive of Zimmer and his report, Kelley led the charge to encourage a sooner response than a later one. “I'd love to see this proceed swiftly. I know that often it takes a really long time to get things in motion. So even if we did try to calen dar it for down the road, it sometimes even gets kicked further down the road.”

Mayor Ozzy Jimenez agreed, saying “doing and starting this as soon as possible is some thing I’d be interested in.” Councilmember Eve lyn Mitchel asked if there were funds and human resources available to start the work sooner than the next budget cycle, and Assistant City Manager Andrew Sturm fels said there was a bal ance in Measure T funds that could be accessed. (That measure uses a half-cent sales tax to fund public safety.)

That became the council’s direction to Zimmer—start making plans for bollard removal to begin in the spring, as soon as resources are rescheduled and a bud get amendment could be passed to enable Measure T funds.

“This is a great oppor tunity to demonstrate our desire to be a more bikefriendly community,” said Kelley, “and prioritize the safety of our cyclists and pedestrians.”

“I’m glad that the council asked that the poles on the bridge near Grove Street be removed,” said Weaver the next day. “The approved action will, I think, be an improvement, offer ing a little more space for cyclists to maneuver and making the poles more visible.” But she said the action fell short of her hopes for a comprehen sive study of the use of bollards, which would have required additional study—and funds.

OBSTACLES Ariel Kelley crosses the Foss Creek footbridge on her way to City Hall, dodging the bollards in the middle of the Foss Creek Pathway. She led the effort to remove up to 25 bollards on Healdsburg's bike and pedestrian trails.

Think Small

‘TAKE HEART, TAKE ACTION’ WITH FOCUSED DAILY ACTS

By Daedalus Howell

For those of us in North ern California, some days it seems the world is go ing to hell in an organic, fair trade, artisanally-wo ven handbasket. But that doesn’t mean it can’t be fixed.

Here’s a thought: Our accumulated, collec tive actions are mean ingful on both a micro and macro scale. This has been the driving premise of Daily Acts, a holistic education nonprofit that helps enable “transfor mative actions that cre ate connected, equita ble and climate resilient communities.”

The driving force behind Daily Acts since its inception over 20 years ago is Trathen Heckman, who recently collected what he has learned shep herding moments into movements in Take Heart, Take Action: The Trans formative Power of Small Acts, Groups and Gardens Heckman is a charis matic and passionate pres ence with a mind clearly firing on all cylinders. That said, he deliberately keeps his message human scale. He doesn’t present a single path so much as a process that makes any pathway both imaginable and nav igable. It’s this ability that has made him a sought after speaker at such con ferences as Bioneers and such a beguiling interview for jaded journos.

What follows is a tran script of a recent conver sation (edited for length) that we shared in his Pet aluma backyard, atop a sculpted cob bench, sur rounded by a living sym phony of greenery.

Trathen Heckman: Our core focus is helping people reclaim the power of their daily actions, help ing people, groups and communities to unleash the power of community and address the climate crisis and sustainabil ity inequities, all these big issues we’re facing. And you know the problem is if you look at the news, you could just get over whelmed. There’s just bad news everywhere. And it feels like everything’s so big, it’s beyond our power to influence. And so the core message in Daily Acts and in the book is the transformative power of “small.”

Daedalus Howell: And the power of the indi vidual too.

TH: Yeah, when you find the spot where your heart’s inspiration meets the hurt that you’re called to heal and you’re ineffec tive to try and do it all, and so you focus on the power of your daily actions. You focus on what is in your circle of influence. And when you focus on the things you can influence that are tied with your inspiration, that are tied with issues you care about, that are tied to your values, you increase your power to affect positive change.

DH: You can actually see the influence you’ve made.

TH: Exactly. And it’s self regenerative. And then when you find other like hearts and like minds, that’s Margaret Mead’s quote, “Never doubt the ability of a small group of people to change the world. That’s all that it’s ever been,” you start to see. So as much as there’s all

these big problems and we can’t solve the problems, we’re faced with individ ual action. It has to be col lective action. It has to be policy change; it has to be bigger systemic change. But the only power any one of us has is our small daily actions. You’re one human, and so that’s all the power you have. But when you combine your passions and interests and concerns tied to a bigger cause and you get with other people in small groups, like small groups could have a massively enormous effect.

DH: And that’s the message of Daily Acts.

TH: We started out focusing on educating people about sustainabil ity and permaculture gar dens. Rather than com plaining about what’s going on, we said, “Look, this gray water system helped change city, county and state policy. This is an ecological landscape that’s growing a huge amount of food. It’s harvesting rain, it’s creating habitat, it’s sequestering carbon diox ide emissions out of the air while building healthy soil.” We show the practi cal, tangible examples.

DH: And you also col lect the data, and you go back and you’re able to say to policy makers, “Here are some facts to consider where we are able to man ifest this; what if you put some rocket fuel into this,” so to speak.

TH: At scale. We have a friend of ours, he has an award-winning, local sus tainability landscape busi ness. He ran the carbon sequestration numbers on the Kavanaugh Center garden we did. That’s the first public food forest we installed 12 years ago. At that time, cities were try ing to save a lot of water, but they’re doing it by rip ping up lawn and it goes to the landfill. And so you’re literally taking out what it took nature 500 to 1,000 years to grow, and then it can’t be compost because it’s so dense. It goes to the landfill and then it adds to all these greenhouse gas emissions. So like, “No, no, no.” Let’s save water, but let’s address rain as well. Harvest the rain in the landscape; let’s grow food, medicine, habitat, beauty; let’s have commu nity come and get edu cated and involved.

DH: And the data?

TH: So, he ran the car bon numbers on the dif ference between that and a normal landscape. And it’s really significant. It’s a lot of carbon savings that’s getting sequestered into food, medicine, habitat, beauty. And so you take that one little landscape— a next number we want to do, we’ve been talking

with the city about—well what if we transformed all or even half of the median strips and the small pub lic spaces and the gardens; it’s a big number. One inch of rain on our roof is like 600 gallons of water. An inch of rain on this prop erty is 4,000 gallons of water. An inch of rain on the city of Petaluma, 240 million gallons of water.

DH: That’s incredi ble. How do you galvanize people into action from there?

TH: We started doing education, showing peo ple what’s possible. Then we started teaching peo ple, “Here’s how you build a cob bench. Here’s how you do a gray water sys tem. Here’s how you do a rainwater system.” And then that morphed into going like, “Okay, well we need to start transform ing landscapes with com munity members.” That’s when we did Kavanaugh Center [in Petaluma], and we partnered to transform the Petaluma City Hall. And then that led into doing all of which is cap tioned in the book, that led into doing action cam paigns and going from one garden to 100s of gardens to tens of thousands of actions in projects.

DH: That’s great, but how do we stay sustained?

TH: It’s so difficult out there. There is “activ ist burnout.” They’re like, “It’s enough to take care of family and try to figure out my job.” And they kind of don’t want to wade in because it seems so over whelming. That was a bit of the genesis of writing the book, of sharing our story and our work to help other people, groups and communities do it.

DH: And in a way that’s demonstrative, so readers can replicate a model or at least employ the Daily Acts philosophy in their own way.

TH: And that’s really important too, because it’s not as easy to go, “Oh, just go replicate doing 1,000 gardens like Daily Acts did.” It comes down to like, “Well, what’s our culture and what’s our operating system that enables us to solve problems and come up with solutions the way we do?” …You start small and build. Yeah, you start with yourself. You start with your own garden, then a small public gar den, then a bigger one, then a bigger one, then lots of bigger ones.

“These latest elec tion returns reflect Ron Edwards’ lead,” a resigned Mansell wrote to the Tribune this week. “While I will wait until all the votes are counted to formally con cede, it looks good for Ron. My sincere hope, my intention, is to stay connected and collab orative.” She applauded Edwards “for his hard work, his personal out reach to meet his com munity and his commit ment ‘to be a bridge’ at this critical time of decision-making.”

remained cautiously optimistic. “I want to do a good job for all of Healdsburg if the num bers hold,” he told the Tribune . “If not, I will continue to bring the issues I learned canvass ing to the council.”

There is no such uncertainty in the other city council race for the full 4-year term, which show incumbent Evelyn Mitchell earning re-elec tion and Chris Herrod elected to the council in his first try for the job. Interestingly, Her rod has a slight lead over Mitchell, 2,657 to 2,650, but both will presum ably be seated on the Healdsburg City Coun cil at its Dec. 5 meeting.

However, if the county hasn’t final ized the counting of the

votes, it’s possible the swearing in of the new council will take place at the next meeting, on Dec. 19, said City Man ager Jeff Kay.

Both city measures, Measure L (assigning TOT income) and Mea sure K (creating a can nabis business tax), eas ily won passage, each with over 70% of the vote.

These words from the state secretary of state clarify the post-election day process:

“While media outlets and others may ‘call’ an election contest, or can didates may ‘concede’ to their opponent, on Elec tion Night or in the days following, these calls and concessions are based on the semi-official results and not the final elec tion results. The elec tion results are never final until the secretary

of state has compiled the official statewide results after all county elections officials have reported their official canvass of the votes.”

“By law, California county elections offi cials have 30 days, also known as the canvass period, to count every valid ballot and conduct a required post-election audit. During the official canvass, elections offi cials are required to con duct a public 1% manual tally of the ballots tabu lated by the county’s vot ing system in order to verify the accuracy of the automated count.

REDWOOD TRUST DEED SERVICES, INC., as said Trustee ATTN: ROBERT CULLEN P.O. BOX 6875 SANTA ROSA, CA 95406-0875 By: ROBERT CULLEN, President NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.

NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (800) 683-2468 or visit this Internet Web site: www. servicelinkASAP.com, using the Trustee Sale number assigned to this file, T.S. #22090-PR. 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.
