Happy New Year ! Some cannabis deliveries could be legal NEW LAW WILL ALLOW CANNABIS DELIVERIES TO HOMES Bryce Stoepfel Reporter
➝ Pot Law, 11
Robert Eliason
Personal use of cannabis is legal in California, but it’s still difficult to obtain in many cities and counties. Soon that may change. On Dec. 11, the California Bureau of Cannabis Affairs introduced new rules and regulations, including access to unrestricted cannabis, despite city or county laws that currently ban it. The final decision is not up to the state's Office of Administrative Law, who is expected to hand down a ruling within 30 days. Proposition 64, approved by the state’s voters in 2016, left it up to local governments to regulate production, sale and distribution of cannabis. Faced with bans and restrictions in many localities, some entrepreneurs have started lucrative cannabis delivery services, offering door-to-door delivery products from legal business in one locale to place where cultivation, sale— and deliveries—are banned by local governments. Cannabis industry advocates have
SHOPPING SPREE Morgan Hill Police Capt. Emil Kokesh and Officer Ken Rak were joined by a group of enthusiastic fourth-graders from Jackson Academy of Math & Music at the Dec. 19 Shop With A Cop event at Target.
Kids, cops shop STUDENTS TREATED TO EVENING WITH MHPD, TARGET GIFT CARD Michael Moore Editor
Fifty-two lucky fourthgraders got a chance Dec.
19 to finish some holiday shopping—for themselves and their peers—courtesy of Morgan Hill Police officers. It was the fourth annual Shop With A Cop charity and outreach event, organized by the Morgan Hill Police Officers Association. Before being treated to a $100
shopping spree at Target, the students selected for this year’s program enjoyed a tour of the police station on Vineyard Boulevard, met the city’s K9 police dog, Bosco, and were awed by demonstrations of patrol cars, handcuffs and other tools of the law enforcement trade. After eating dinner
with a dozen-plus MHPD officers, the group rolled up to Target on Cochrane Road in a caravan of Morgan Hill Unified School District buses and police cruisers. Running into the store in order to keep up with the kids, each officer was teamed up with a small group of students to help ensure they stayed
within their budget and purchased everything on their lists. Kia Jones, 9, a fourthgrader at Jackson Academy of Math & Science, said while deciding what to purchase at Target that meeting the city’s K9 officer was the highlight of the evening ➝ Shopping, 15

Trial to Morgan Hill. On May 16, the tour brought nearly 120 of the world’s best cyclists—including some of the sport’s household names like Peter Sagan and Mark Cavendish—and thousands of visitors to downtown Morgan Hill and western foothills of the Santa Cruz mountains. The 21.6-mile loop— which requires competitors to continuously stomp the pedals if they want to get ahead—started and finished in the city’s downtown, and the course route was closed to vehicle traffic. The time trial also featured a cycling festival ➝ Review, 2

As 2018 approaches its end, it seems much of the year’s excitement in the local news has been concentrated in the last few weeks: new elected officials, the county’s purchase of St. Louise Regional Hospital, a nationwide romaine lettuce scare, another chapter closed in the ongoing effort to build a Catholic high school in southeast
Morgan Hill, a mid-November smoky hellscape from Northern California fires, and so forth. This week and next, the Times takes a look back through 2018 and reflects on some of the most memorable, inspiring, harrowing, uplifting and unusual moments in Morgan Hill and South County over the last 12 months. As usual, City Hall was busy throughout 2018— mostly with ongoing development requests, approvals, delays and more. But perhaps the city’s biggest accomplishment this year was attracting the Amgen Tour of California Stage 4 Time
WORLD CLASS EVENT Thousands of spectators lined the opening stretch of the Amgen Tour of California’s May 16 time trial on Monterey Road, cheering each competitor as they rounded the first turn onto West Dunne Avenue to start the 21.6-mile loop. The event broadcast images of Morgan Hill all over the world and brought thousands of visitors to town.

Britton brawl, downtown delays in 2018

downtown, with vendors and giant TV screens broadcasting the event live as they surreally depicted Morgan Hill and the area’s rolling hills and ranchlands for the world to see. The tour’s choice of Morgan Hill as a venue was due to the promotion efforts of the city’s economic development crew and other City Hall officials. “We would love to have you come back to Morgan Hill!” Mayor Steve Tate exclaimed May 16 on the finish line stage, after the last cyclist finished the course. And the tour is coming back to Morgan Hill in 2019: The city will host the event’s Stage 3 finish line May 14.
Police incidents

Morgan Hill Police and other South County emergency personnel responded to some unexpected and, at times, frightening incidents in 2018. One such instance was the April 27 Britton Carnival, where an annual family-friendly fundraiser that draws hundreds of students and parents for fun and games turned into an all-out brawl. Some juvenile patrons of the carnival clashed with local police, who had to call in reinforcements from surrounding cities. The ugly events that transpired cost Britton more than $20,000 in fundraising and a lasting scar on its reputation. The school’s only fundraiser, organized by the Home and School Club, covers everything from assemblies, field trips and dances to sports
RUSH HOUR LANDING In one of the unlikeliest public safety stories of the year, on Feb. 18 a pilot out of Aptos made an emergency landing on U.S. 101 in San Martin. The pilot, Wayne Wright, was flying a single-engine aircraft when the plane’s motor began to fail above San Jose. Wright made a split second decision to make an emergency landing on the median of the freeway, thinking he might not make it to the nearby San Martin Airport. The decision resulted in a safe landing for the pilot and motorists on the ground. programs, athletic equipment and technology. The melee, which involved more than 60 police officers arriving at the scene and the arrest of eight local juveniles brought up on multiple charges, put an end to the longstanding carnival fundraiser for not only to 2018 but quite possibly forever. Then just two days later, on April 29, a Morgan Hill officer accidentally fired his

service gun into the ground during a traffic stop, resulting in injuries to a teenage girl. The accident happened in the area of Llagas and Del Monte avenues at the end of pursuit of a stolen vehicle. The officer, a 23-year veteran of MHPD, was placed on administrative leave following the incident. MHPD asked the Santa Clara County District Attorney’s Office to investigate the shooting,
but that office has not yet released its findings.

Development activity continued in the downtown neighborhood throughout 2018, though not all the projects remain on schedule. City Hall itself acquired more downtown property, with the purchase a $925,000 parcel near the intersection of Depot and

Area immigration attorneys, activists, public officials, clergy members and residents gathered outside the federal immigration office in Morgan Hill Dec. 20 to protest recent reports of “inhumane” treatment of detainees, and to demand the facility be shut down. The protestors also wanted to send the message that residents can support the Rapid Response Network of Santa Clara County, a community of activists and attorneys that works to provide immigration detainees with legal counsel and ensure their rights are upheld. They urged their fellow protestors to “report ICE activity” by calling the response network at (408) 290-1144. Immigration attorney Dorothy Ma described an incident earlier this month when an immigrant detained by officers with the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency was denied due process while forced to sit in a van outside the Morgan Hill field office on Vineyard Court before he was transported to a processing center in San Francisco. ICE officers refused to allow Ma to consult with the client because the field office does not provide a secure meeting area for attorneys or other visitors, said Ma, a staff attorney for the organization Amigos de Guadalupe. An ICE supervising officer told her the client was sitting outside in a van while agents arrested more immigrants to fill the vehicle with more people to be processed in San Francisco, Ma said. The case came to Ma’s attention when the detained immigrant’s mother called her office immediately after ICE officers arrested him. Ma traveled to the Morgan Hill facility that morning to provide “field representation” for the man, even though she was ultimately denied.
Ma estimated the man, who is a recipient of the federal Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, sat inside the van for at least five hours before he was finally transported for processing. During this time, he was denied legal representation while ICE set his bail amount and served him with documents to initiate deportation proceedings. “It is absolutely crucial during this window of time for us to be able to speak with the client, because the clients who are detained and have representation fare better at every stage of the immigration process,” Ma said. “Because there was no secure area (at the Morgan Hill ICE field office), I couldn’t advocate for him for a very important stage.” She added that the constitutional right to due process is not supposed to be delayed or withheld due to the detainee’s custody location. “The right to counsel starts immediately” after arrest, Ma explained. “If they can’t provide basic legal and safety rights here, then this center shouldn’t be existing,” Ma said at the podium Dec. 20 outside the ICE office, in front of about 30 protestors. ICE spokesman Richard Rocha said in response to a request for comment, “The ICE office in Morgan Hill is solely administrative space and does not have space to process or detain individuals, nor is it set up to offer attorney or family visits. ICE routinely stops at the Morgan Hill office to allow detainees an opportunity to use the restroom en route to other permanent ICE facilities where full access to attorneys is provided.” Protestors at the Dec. 20 event held signs with giant letters written in magic marker: “SHUT IT DOWN!” and “We demand due process!” among them. The protest occurred amid growing nationwide concern over federal immigration enforcement practices under President Donald Trump’s administration. Mentioned at the Dec. 20 demonstration was a 7-year-old girl who died last week in federal agents’ custody after she illegally crossed the U.S. border with her father.
Some of those present at the Dec. 20 protest demonstrated in previous protests against ICE outside the Morgan Hill office, which has been at its current location on Vineyard Court since 2016. Mayor Rich Constantine was one of the speakers at the Dec. 20 protest. “I’m here to tell you that the city of Morgan Hill (and) the Morgan Hill Police Department do not condone the actions that are being…perpetrated” by ICE, Constantine began. “I don’t blame the men and women who work for ICE, but their job is being dictated…by this administration. The actions of this administration have made it difficult for this country to fulfill its constitutional rights.” Constantine explained that his parents are immigrants from Jamaica. “They came here the same reason all immigrants come here—because they wanted a better life. And that is what this country was founded on,” he said. The mayor urged the assembled protestors to continue to peacefully resist inhumane immigration policies, by calling their elected representatives and spreading the word. Also speaking at the Dec. 20 protest were Amigos de Guadalupe Executive Director Maritza Maldonado, Advent Lutheran Church Pastor Anita Warner and Rapid Response Network Attorney Coordinator Luis Angel Reyes Savalza. Savalza said at least 15 Mexican nationals have been arrested by ICE agents in Santa Clara County so far in the month of December. These immigrants are often “picked up” by ICE officers while on their way to work. “We know these things because we have a network, to ensure due process is protected for everyone,” Savalza said. “ICE officers have categorically denied their right to counsel, a constitutional right for citizens and non-citizens.” Like other activists present, Savalza implored the crowd to call the network’s hotline any time they see ICE activity in their community. “This is the first step: exposing what ICE is doing,” he said.

Decisions in 2018 will affect the future
L
ots of decisions were made in 2018––some which were entirely or partially within our control and others that were made on our behalf, or in secret, or areas of the world unknown to us. We won’t know the outcomes immediately, but we do know that every decision made influences the future. Facebook made decisions which led to Cambridge Analytica using consumer data without their knowledge. And then Facebook didn’t consider it a breach of privacy and trust until the public––and eventually Congress––found out. Twitter made decisions about its algorithms and what constitutes hate speech and intimidation, effectively preserving the status quo. Consumers made a decision to buy peripherals rather than investing in newer phones that haven’t added features or functionality. The sale of smartphones plateaued worldwide. Apple’s new iPhone XS didn’t wow consumers as expected. Samsung sort of revealed a phone with a foldable screen, but didn’t mention when or whether it would go on sale. Consumers also made decisions about their digital privacy. Overwhelmingly, we decided that the benefits of using our devices far outweighed the drawbacks of third parties scraping and using our data. In the US, Federal Communications Commission Chairman Ajit Pai made a decision to roll back laws intended to protect consumers and the open internet. Cities decided to allow transportation-asa-service companies to set up shop including electric scooters and bikes, along with ride sharing apps. The Supreme Court ruled that law enforcement must get a warrant to access your past location data from wireless carriers and others. It also ruled that states can now force retailers to collect sales taxes during online transactions. Lawmakers in the US decided not to develop a national strategy (or even point of
view) on biology, artificial intelligence and automation. We are currently tracking 300 trends across 25 different industry sectors. Here’s an inventory of some of our initial key findings for 2019: For better or worse, regulation is coming in 2019. Even if proposals for regulation stall or ultimately fail to pass, going through the process will prove a serious distraction and cause pain for big tech companies. China will assert prolific dominance in 2019 across multiple areas: economics, technology, infrastructure, data collection and mining, artificial intelligence, bioengineering and diplomacy. We should anticipate data breaches originating from China rather than treating each case as new and novel. Russia will similarly continue efforts to influence citizens in Western democracies using a variety of techniques. Smartphone sales will start to decline; smart peripherals will see a bump. We expect to see many new kinds of wearables: connected performance clothing, headbands, shoes. We’ll see the convergence of several game changing technologies, such as artificial intelligence, genomics and quantum computing and encryption. We’ll see further consolidation across media and tech. Interfaces won’t just be screens that we look at. In 2019 we’ll begin to see new kinds of interfaces: biophysical, soundwave, light, gesture and of course, voice. We’ll start to reframe conversations around privacy rights in the wake of new connected devices and spatial computing environments. Examples: Who owns the rights to my face? What if my face gets hacked? Do the walls of an office––the physical walls––have the right to privacy?

Local group caters to needy families ‘I LOVE MORGAN HILL’ VOLUNTEERS SERVE DINNER, SUPPLY JACKETS, GIFTS Scott Forstner Reporter
Scott Hinrichs
Dinner for 575 people was gleefully served by members of the I Love Morgan Hill outreach group, which also supplied 850 winter jackets and 600 toys for needy families as part of its eighth annual holiday event. “We can all be in this situation. We’re all one paycheck away,” said longtime organizer Josie Scott. “We want them to feel they are valued, they are loved and it doesn’t matter the situation you are in. You’re loved and important.” At the Cathedral of Faith inside the Morgan Hill Community and Cultural Center, parishioners and other volunteers facilitated a special night that started with a sliced turkey breast dinner served with corn, fruit, bread, salad and dessert—all donated by Martha’s Kitchen. “It’s just so important for us to give back to the community, whether it’s food or staying warm or gifts for the children,” said Lisa Ellis, head of the kitchen brigade since the event’s inception. “It’s great to be able to help families that are in need.” This major outreach project is made possible through the support of I Love Morgan Hill, Cathedral of Faith, Martha’s Kitchen, Golden Eagle Mortgage and Gilroy Elk’s

Lodge No. 1567. “I come back every year because there’s a need within our community,” said this year’s lead organizer Robin Tokiwa, a retired San Jose police officer. “I come to this event to see the joy on the children’s faces when they get a new jacket or a toy.” Attendees must fill out a registration form,
including contact information and number of family members, before entering the community center’s 4,030-square-foot banquet room for a sitdown dinner with festive holiday music to set the mood. After dinner, families made their way to the toy room, where special gifts were passed out to the
children and winter jackets were available in an adjacent room. The special night also included a trip to Santa’s Village, where families were treated to photographs with Santa along with free printouts. On their way out, guests were able to pick up a bag of groceries from the Second Harvest Food Bank. “We meet the needs
of the community, and that gives me great satisfaction,” Tokiwa said. “I believe you should give back in the community you live in. At Cathedral of Faith, we take care of our community first.” The holiday dinner and giveaway is just one of the many outreach events organized by the Cathedral of Faith, including its
family harvest food program where a free dinner is served on the second Tuesday of each month at the CCC. The Cathedral of Faith’s Morgan Hill chapter has grown to more than 250 strong since it was established more than 10 years ago as part of a much larger 12,000-member national movement.

MORGAN HILL TIMES
Tate recognized for clean energy SILICON VALLEY CLEAN ENERGY
Being part of Silicon Valley Clean Energy has been a real experience. This was a totally different subject matter than what a lot of the board had dealt with before, and while it seemed a bit overwhelming at first, I was really impressed by how quickly we all got up-to-speed.
Staff report
After 12 years as the Mayor of Morgan Hill, Steve Tate received high honors for his years of service on the clean energy joint powers authority. The Silicon Valley Clean Energy board of directors passed a resolution to honor Tate at a Nov. 14 meeting. Tate had been a member of the board since the authority began in 2016. Silicon Valley Clean Energy is a communityowned agency that acquires clean, carbon-free electricity

on behalf of residents and businesses. Campbell, Cupertino, Gilroy, Los Altos, Los Altos Hills, Los Gatos, Milpitas, Monte Sereno, Morgan Hill, Mountain View, Saratoga, Sunnyvale and unincorporated Santa
Clara County all use the agency’s services. Tate was recognized in a press release from the board for saving 59.5 million pounds of carbon emissions in 2018 for the city of Morgan Hill. The release also said that Tate’s approval of
2018 electricity rates saved Morgan Hill customers a total of $895,000 on their energy bills. The board recognized Tate for being part of the passing of major decisions like carbon-free power as the default energy choice for
customers, approval of the agency budget and setting a Net Energy Metering program for solar customers. Tate, who retired from elected office as of Dec. 12, said in the press release about his time on the board, "Being part of Silicon Valley
Clean Energy has been a real experience. This was a totally different subject matter than what a lot of the board had dealt with before, and while it seemed a bit overwhelming at first, I was really impressed by how quickly we all got up to speed."

the Office of Administrative Law officially approves our final regulations,” Traverso said in an email. “This should happen early in January.” For Gilroy Mayor Roland Velasco the potential new ruling on cannabis delivery would undercut the city's ability to decide on its own what to do about cannabis. "I think it's another example of Sacramento taking away power from local government," Velasco said. Questions about the legality of the delivery businesses in July prompted the state Bureau of Cannabis Control to the new rule to enable licensed cannabis delivery businesses to offer delivery services everywhere, despite local
restrictions. Until the rule goes into effect, all cannabis deliveries are still illegal in many places, including Morgan Hill, Gilroy and unincorporated San Benito County. Ironically, despite the delivery bans, the cities and counties must allow cannabis delivery services to use state highways and local roads even if they can’t make deliveries to the areas they’re driving through, according to the state. In Hollister, which has begun regulating some cannabis businesses, city cannabis affairs manager Maria Mendez says cannabis delivery would be possible for medical cannabis delivered by a permitted dispensary with a

complained about the restrictions on cannabis delivery, citing the lack of availability of legal cannabis for many Californians. A new state law set to go into effect in January may put the state on a potential collision course with local ordinances and the League of California Cities may challenge the new delivery rules, but without a clearcut definition of what the Office of Administrative Law will decide, what actions they may take is unclear. "It's hard to know until we know for sure," said League of California Cities Communications Specialist Adrienne Sprenger. While many cities and
counties have enacted ordinances that ban cannabis delivery, Alex Traverso the Assistant Chief of Communications Bureau of Cannabis Control contends that state law prevents the banning of cannabis delivery. "Our belief is that statewide delivery is already the law and locals cannot prevent it," Traverso said in an email. According to the new California Business and Profession Code, "A local jurisdiction shall not prevent delivery of cannabis or cannabis products on public roads by a licensee acting in compliance with this division and local law as adopted under Section 26200." “Nothing is settled regarding delivery until

Land use concerns
Conflicting views of local land use continued to dominate many South County residents’ lives in 2018. This was the case with the release this summer of the proposed Cordoba Center’s Environmental

proposal next door hasn’t gotten off the ground. Leal has proposed the “boutique” Granada Hotel at the former site of the Downtown Mall, which has been a patch of untouched dirt for several months. The City Ventures and Sunsweet residential/ commercial projects along Depot Street are active construction sites every day. Those developments will add scores of new residential units to the city’s downtown. Weston Miles Architects in 2018 completed the Granary District of condominiums, offices and commercial shops—including Bike Therapy, the Grape Vine and Running Shop and Hops—along Depot Street near the intersection of East Main Avenue. Restaurateur Dan McCranie has yet to break ground on a rooftop dining and art gallery he proposed to the city in 2016. That project was proposed at the intersection of Monterey Road and Second Street. The property remains a “pop-up park.” And on the other side of Monterey Road at Second Street, the former Royal Clothier and Tryst building has enjoyed an extensive remodel to open a restaurant but remains unoccupied.
BICYCLING BIRD A parrot on a bicycle is an unlikely sight, but it happened in Morgan Hill in 2018. On Aug. 7, students from
San Martin/Gwinn Elementary were treated to a special visit from some famous feathered friends. Julie Cardoza and husband Ed brought their Happy Birds program to the school. The birds performed a unique show featuring more than 25 tricks—including riding a bicycle— for nearly 40 students. Pictured here is Gordon, a 16-year-old blue hyacinth macaw, working on his cycling skills during the Aug. 7 show.
Impact Report. The mosque and community center project is proposed by the South Valley Islamic Community on Monterey Road near California Avenue in San Martin. The project has been in the initial planning stages for years, but the release of the EIR marks a key milestone in making the mosque a reality. After county planning staff and
the public have completed a review of the study of the property, county officials will begin the project permitting and approval process, which will likely last through 2019. This summer’s public hearings on the Cordoba Center EIR again drew standing-room-only crowds. Many San Martin residents worry the size of the project will create
sizable traffic and other impacts that will encroach on their rural lifestyle. Supporters of the project say all potential impacts will be minimized and the mosque and community center will fill an essential need for a religious facility for local Muslims. More recently in Morgan Hill, murmurs of a new Catholic high school in the Southeast Quadrant
came after the Morgan Hill City Council in September approved plans to annex the San Jose Diocese’s land in the area of Murphy and Tennant avenues. However, the county’s Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) rejected the new plan this month, possibly crushing all hope of building a South County Catholic High School. Commissioners
were hesitant to allow the diocese and city to build on the longtime farmland, despite the city’s plan to require the builder to purchase agricultural easements elsewhere in town. In 2019, city and county officials will likely continue to butt heads over what is the best way to preserve farmland while respecting property owners in the Southeast Quadrant.

Cops host future leaders ➝ Shopping, 1
Students at MHUSD elementary schools were asked to vote for their classmates to participate in the Dec. 19 shopping spree based on five criteria: the student is an example for others, is a leader, is self-motivated, is selfdisciplined and is socially responsible, according to the MHPOA. Funding for Shop With a Cop comes from the MHPOA’s annual golf tournament fundraiser, which took place in October this year. The purpose of the program is not only to bring some extra holiday cheer to local students. It is an “opportunity for the future leaders of our community to be awarded and recognized for their hard work and being role models,” reads an MHPOA statement. It’s also a chance for children

thus far. As for what she was looking to spend her $100 gift card on: “I’m buying more stuff for the toy drive than I am for myself,” she said. The shopping spree came with some conditions set out by the MHPOA organizers. Students had to use their gift card to purchase something warm, something for school and a gift to donate to a program that helps disadvantaged kids during the holidays, Officer Ken Rak explained. After picking up those items, the students could spend the balance of their gift cards on whatever they wanted for themselves. Most of them chose toys. The Shop With a Cop program aims to select students who are considered leaders among their fourth-grade peers.

MHUSD requests emergency funding MORE THAN 300 STUDENTS ABSENT ON DAY OF FALSE THREAT Scott Forstner Reporter
Local school district officials were given board permission to try to recover $16,000 in lost Average Daily Attendance funds from the state Department of Education due to special circumstances. “Morgan Hill Unified School District experienced a significant decrease in attendance on Oct. 22, 2018 due to a threat of violence being circulated by social
media listing ‘BMS’ as the targeted location,” reads the staff report. “Staff requests the substitution of estimated days of attendance for actual days of attendance.” “BMS” are the initials of Britton Middle School. However, a Morgan Hill Police Department investigation deemed the Snapchat post was created in another state and there was “no credible threat” to the West Central Avenue middle school. The post that was feared to take aim at Britton read, “Attention Everybody that goes to BMS I will be shooting up the school on Monday afternoon.” Despite the conclusion, hundreds of parents chose
Considering the threat of violence made via social media and the sharing of that information, a perception of an imminent threat was formed. In reality, however, the pre-planning done by the district and local law enforcement greatly mitigated the potential for violence. —MHPD CHIEF DAVID SWING to keep their students home from school that day. As a result, the district lost about $16,000 in ADA funds. On Oct. 22, attendance at Britton Middle School dropped by 318 students from a monthly average of 747 to an actual of 429 due to the threat, according to the district’s “Request for Allowance of Attendance due to Emergency Conditions” filing with the Department of Education. No other district school had a significant decline in
attendance that day. According to state education code, a district may request ADA credits “whenever the average daily attendance of any school district, county office of education, regional occupational center or program has been decreased because of fire, flood, impassable roads or when one or more schools were kept open but experienced a material decrease in attendance because of special circumstances.” The district loses $60
per day per student when an absence from school is recorded for any reason. The average daily attendance value per student for the year is $7,683 for middle school sites. That amount varies by elementary, middle and high schools. Included in the district’s application to the state was a Nov. 19 letter of support from Morgan Hill Police Chief David Swing addressed to County Superintendent of Schools Mary Ann Dewan. “Considering the threat
of violence made via social media and the sharing of that information, a perception of an imminent threat was formed. In reality, however, the pre-planning done by the district and local law enforcement greatly mitigated the potential for violence,” Swing wrote. “The subsequent funding would be beneficial to the Morgan Hill Unified School District to help offset the financial obligations that were created by the potential threat to students and staff at Britton Middle School on

PROTECTING NEIGHBORHOODS FROM THE THREAT OF WILDFIRES
With new wildfires threatening our local communities, PG&E is partnering with our customers in high fire-threat areas to accelerate and expand our vegetation management work. We will be examining and addressing critical vegetation across 7,100 miles of power lines.
In order to keep our neighborhoods safe, PG&E may need to trim or remove vegetation on or near properties in high firethreat areas. PG&E’s action plan includes the following steps: ■ Step 1: Our safety inspectors will be in your neighborhood to determine what vegetation may need to be trimmed or removed. ■ Step 2: If needed, we will mark trees that need to be addressed and contact you to discuss the results of the safety inspection. ■ Step 3: We will perform safety work shortly after the inspection. ■ Step 4: We will plan to begin wood debris removal within a few weeks after completion of the safety work (unless you would like to keep it).
KEEPING YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD SAFE
You can help keep your family and neighbors safe by maintaining defensible space around your home and property. We recommend you regularly trim bushes and trees, remove any dry or dead vegetation and be sure to leave space between trees and plants.
Now, and in the years ahead, we must all work together to be better prepared for wildfires.

know I’m asking a lot of him to play a position he’s somewhat unfamiliar with, but he’s doing a nice job for us.” The Bulldogs play a possession-type game, relying on quick, pinpoint passes. Brown said assistant coach Stuart Harte, who played professionally in England, has been huge in helping the players make the necessary adjustments to play a possessiontype game. Whereas a lot of high school teams like to put their fastest guy up top and play a dump and chase game, the Bulldogs plan to employ a more technical approach that should keep opposing teams on the defensive. “Stuart really knows how to get the boys to play that style, and it’s a beautiful style of play we’re going to stick with,” Brown said. Brown, who graduated from Mitty in the mid-1980s and still to this day keeps in contact and hangs out with some of his former teammates, said he wants to build a culture at Sobrato where the players have such a memorable experience that they’ll want to come back and play the alumni games every year. In fact, Sobrato had an alumni game on Dec. 22, the first time that has occurred for the boys soccer program in recent memory. “I want these boys to have a similar experience here to what I had in high school,” Brown said “I think we’re getting there and the program is definitely on the right track. The JV team looks extremely strong and I know we have a huge amount of freshmen coming in next year.” Brown had each of the players sign a contract before the season started, things that ranged from

Sobrato High boys soccer coach Jeff Brown said he firmly believes in the talent and makeup of his players. The team has given him legitimate reasons for optimism, as the Bulldogs are off to their best start in nearly a decade (they were 3-2-0 through their first five matches). “If everyone can get on the field at the same time, I think we can really turn into something special,” said Brown, who spent the last two years as the Sobrato junior varsity coach. “ We have an extremely talented team that has been plagued by injuries and eligibility issues. But these boys are awesome. Their dedication and attitude is super refreshing.” Ryan Nave, a senior fullback, possesses strong ball-control skills, speed and an unmatched enthusiasm for the game. “I get motivated just watching him play,” Brown said. Hector “Andre” Gutierrez, a junior outside midfielder who can also play fullback, has been coming on strong and scored an important goal in a 3-2 win over the King’s Academy on Dec. 8. Sobrato has three seniors— Nave, Eduardo Gonzalez and Max Brown—who played on the team as sophomores. Brown suffered a season-ending injury in a Dec. 18 match, one of the many
hurdles the team has faced this season. Gonzalez, a senior center midfielder, has excellent ballcontrol skills along with a rifle for a shot. “It’s nearly impossible to take the ball away from him,” Jeff Brown said. Nathan Arnott, a center midfielder and striker, is expected to return from a leg injury in January. Dylan Gallipeo, an all-BVAL West Valley Division first team selection last year, has come back stronger than ever. Gallipeo possesses a strong soccer acumen and knows when to speed things up and when to slow them down. He also has speed and an excellent touch, making him one of the team’s best all-around players. Gabriel Cornejo, a junior wing, has deft ball-control skills and vision, making him a threat to score or make a play that leads to a score on a moment’s notice. Vincent Mancera, a junior center defender, has taken a leadership role on the team and “is basically paving the way to be a captain for next season.” Jacobo Orozco Rodriguez, a senior outside attacker, is expected to be eligible to play on Jan. 3 after transferring to Sobrato for the current school year. Braedon Hoge, a senior goalkeeper, has taken on a huge responsibility converting to play in between the pipes this season. A field player on his club team, Hoge has done been solid in providing steady and consistent play as the team’s last line of defense. “Braedon is so unbelievably dedicated and soft-spoken,” Brown said. “He never misses a practice and is a great kid.

For the players, it’s all about conducting themselves in the proper manner with a professional-type attitude that involves working hard, having fun and never giving up. To keep things fun, the team gets to play music during practices. “If the boys act up, I often threaten to switch the playlist to Taylor Swift,” Brown said. “I haven’t had to go there yet.” Brown, who is also a coach with Orchard Valley and has coached locally for 11 years, said it’s been a pleasure coaching this year’s group. “You have teams that make it tough on you and you have teams that you thoroughly enjoy coaching, and this is one of those teams you thoroughly enjoy coaching,” he said.

Hazel Hawkins Memorial Hospital (HHMH) is pleased to announce a partnership with Pediatrix Medical Group of California, a MEDNAX affiliate that also provides services to Good Samaritan Hospital in San Jose. Pediatric hospitalists from “The importance of this Pediatrix will begin supporting women’s and children’s services at program is placing quality HHMH as early as February 2019. physicians in the Hollister Pediatrix and HHMH will work together to establish a premier community to establish pediatric hospitalist program in Hollister, increasing community continuity of care.” access to top-quality pediatric care. Pediatrix will provide highly trained hospital-based pediatric hospitalists to assist with high-risk newborn deliveries, help determine when a newborn requires transport out for critical care, and support the care of well newborns in the nursery, as well as inpatient children and teens. Pediatric hospitalists will also be on hand to provide onsite consultative services to attending medical staff and ER physicians and to help stabilize patients in emergency situations. Good Samaritan Hospital’s neonatology group has, for many years, been assisting HHMH with the stabilization and transport of high-risk newborns, and supported physicians with telephone consultations. “We have a long-standing relationship with Hazel Hawkins, built over the last 10 to 15 years, and this is the next step,” said Dr. Richard Powers, MEDNAX affiliated neonatologist and Chief of Staff at Good Samaritan Hospital. HHMH pursued a partnership with Pediatrix due to the need for full-time pediatric support at the hospital. Currently most pediatricians in Hollister have established office-based practices and cannot staff the hospital. “Pediatrix has a history and national reputation for providing excellent care to newborns and children,” said Ken Underwood, HHMH CEO. “This partnership will bring experience and vital support to our top-tier Women’s Center and ER, and to children admitted to Hazel Hawkins Hospital”

harlene Veronica Harkness, born August 18, 1930, in Jourdanton, Texas, to Frank and Phyllis Ulcak Kremenek, passed away in San Luis Obispo on December 15, 2018. Shar moved to Morgan Hill with her family in 1949, where she met her future husband, Walt Harkness. They lived in Morgan Hill until 1959, when they moved to Davis, but continued to spend time in Morgan Hill for many years. Shar moved to Avila Beach from Davis in 1999 to be near her son, Michael, after Walt died. Shar taught elementary school for over 30 years, first in Morgan Hill, then in Davis, and then as a volunteer reading aide in Avila Beach. She was an avid reader, loved learning, and art, and music, and games, and passed those loves along to her children and grandchildren. After they retired in 1984, she and Walt traveled the world, and she continued that on her own, visiting almost every continent. Shar was preceded in death by her husband, Walt, and son, Bill. She is survived by her daughter, Jody (Carl) Woodbury of El Dorado; her son, Michael (Pat) Harkness of San Luis Obispo; grandchildren Caitlin Ridge, Benjamin Cassady, Mason Harkness , and Molly Woodbury ; great-grandchildren Skyler and Grayson; and brothers Larry and John Kremenek. A memorial service with immediate family will be held in San Luis Obispo. Remembrances in Shar’s name may be made to the children’s educational fund at www.unicefusa.org.

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.
