Resolute hikers were invited for a New Year’s nature walk at Rancho Cañada del Oro Open Space Preserve in west Morgan Hill, but plans were dampened when heavy rains pounded the Bay Area over the weekend. Though rain canceled the event, docents, deer and turkeys

braved the elements and enjoyed the quiet morning free of fuss. Rancho Cañada del Oro Open Space Preserve includes 12 miles of trails open to hikers, mountain bikers and equestrians. With three levels of hikes and a wheelchair-accessible trail loop, the preserve provides a full nature experience for everyone. Public access to the preserve is located at 4289 Casa Loma Road.

Grower has history of violations OFFICIALS SAY LOCAL WATER QUALITY NOT IMPACTED Michael Moore Editor

Monterey Mushrooms’ history of allowing its farm production waste and other wastewater to flow from its Morgan Hill facility into local

waterways is extensive, according to the district attorney’s civil complaint against the company. Recorded incidents of such wastewater flow from the mushroomgrowing site on Hale Avenue into Fisher Creek and its tributaries date back more than 30 years and have occurred on dozens of occasions observed by enforcement authorities,

the lawsuit filed Dec. 21 by the Santa Clara County DA’s Office states. Similar illegal wastewater dumping practices have been logged at other Monterey Mushrooms facilities in the Central Coast region, and authorities outside Santa Clara County are still working with the company to correct the more recent violations, according to

multiple sources. The local lawsuit addresses suspected violations of state Fish and Game and Business and Professions laws from 2012 to 2017, a timeframe within the statute of limitations for the alleged crimes. Despite the nastysounding nature of the allegations against Monterey Mushrooms, local

Veterans Run raises nearly $15K

Submitted

Even though the annual Nov. 11 Veterans Day Run was canceled due to smoke from fires in northern California, the fundraiser was lucrative for a list of nonprofit organizations. Organizer Charles Weston, a Morgan Hill resident and business owner, said the annual 5K run raised a total of $14,819 to be donated to the following nonprofits that serve veterans: Taji 100, Operation Freedom Paws, Dream Power, Project Hired and Freedom Fest. “I’m a Vietnam veteran and upon return from Vietnam found it very difficult to assimilate. One of the things that saved me in addition to my family and the Vietnam Veterans Center, was my running,” Weston said. Picture above are representatives of some of these organizations receiving the proceeds in a ceremony at Weston’s downtown Morgan Hill office: Kim Moyano, Freedom Fest treasurer; Sharon Winston of Project Hired; Martha McNeil of Dream Power; Weston; and Mary Cortani of Operation Freedom Paws. Before the scheduled Nov. 11 run, 119 runners had signed up for the fundraiser. When given the chance for a refund, none of them accepted the offer. Weston added that sponsorships made up a sizable portion of the total proceeds from this year’s run.

Police investigate sexual assault SUSPECT WAS RELEASED AFTER JAN. 3 ARREST Michael Moore Editor

Accusations that a homeless man sexually assaulted a woman at his makeshift shelter in San Martin remain under investigation, according to authorities. The man has not been charged with a crime, and was released from custody shortly after his arrest last week. The suspect had returned to his shelter on Llagas Avenue, across the street from the San Martin Transfer Station, by the afternoon of Jan. 4. He had been arrested Jan. 2 by Santa Clara County

Sheriff ’s deputies after a woman who had been helping him for several months told police that he raped her inside his shelter, the sheriff ’s office reported last week. When visited Jan. 4 by a Times reporter at his shelter—which is made of a series of tarps and shopping carts—the 43-yearold homeless man presented paperwork from Santa Clara Valley Medical Center in which a nurse described his mental state as “psychotic.” The paperwork, a form titled “Involuntary Patient Advisement” dated Jan. 3, indicated that hospital staff who evaluated him thought he might harm someone. Hospital staff ordered the man to be held up to

72 hours so he could be medically and psychologically evaluated, according to his paperwork. The 72-hour period specified in the form was from the morning of Jan. 3 to the morning of Jan. 6. “You were psychotic, and you allegedly attempted to rape someone,” reads a hospital staff person’s handwritten note on the Valley Medical paperwork. A Santa Clara County District Attorney’s Office spokesperson said the Jan. 2 sexual assault allegations against the man remain under investigation. The DA’s office has not charged him with a crime in relation to the recent accusations. On Jan. 3, the sheriff’s

office released a statement that a suspect had been arrested the previous day on suspicion of sexual assault and false imprisonment. The arrest followed the report from the alleged victim, a woman who had been providing assistance to the homeless man for several months. The woman told deputies that on the evening of Jan. 2, she visited the man’s shelter to deliver food and supplies. She told deputies he raped her inside his shelter. The man was booked at Santa Clara County Jail, according to the sheriff ’s office. His recent paperwork from Valley Medical indicated he was also medically evaluated after his arrest. A printed explanation

of the 72-hour-maximum hold states, in part, “During these 72 hours, you will be evaluated by the facility staff, and you may be given treatment, including medications. It is possible for you to be released before the end of the 72 hours. But if the staff decides that you need continued treatment, you can be held for a longer period of time. If you are held longer than 72 hours, you have the right to a lawyer and a qualified interpreter and a hearing before a judge.” Although a previous Times report named the man, based on the sheriff ’s Jan. 3 press release, this newspaper is currently declining to name him because he has not been charged with a crime.

While talking with a Times reporter at his shelter Jan. 4, the homeless man frequently spoke in incoherent terms. When asked numerous times why he was arrested, he repeated a theory that he was being controlled by professionals in a lab in South Carolina to which he once donated blood. He also failed to coherently say how long he has been living at his shelter in San Martin and whether he knew any nearby residents, including the woman who accused him. Anyone with further information about this case can call the sheriff ’s Sexual Assault Investigative Unit at (408) 808-4500.

DEBIT

A 27-year-old Morgan Hill man died early Monday morning after he lost control of his pickup truck and overturned it on U.S. 101 in south Gilroy, according to authorities. The Santa Clara County Coroner’s Office identified the dead driver as Raul Bueno, Jr. About 12:40am Jan. 7, Bueno was driving a

2007 Nissan Titan north on the freeway, just north of the Monterey Road exit in Gilroy, reads a press release from the California Highway Patrol. For an unknown reason, Bueno lost control of the Nissan and drove off the west edge of the northbound lane of U.S. 101, police said. The vehicle proceeded out of control in a northwesterly direction and collided with a guardrail made of wood and metal. The guardrail is located in the center divide and separates the northbound and southbound lanes of U.S. 101.

The collision with the guardrail caused the Nissan to overturn and come to rest on its right side, police said. Bueno was pinned inside the vehicle. After a lengthy extrication effort by fire department personnel, Bueno was removed from the Nissan. Bueno succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene. Authorities do not think alcohol or drugs were a factor in the accident. The collision remains under investigation, according to the CHP.

Taxpayers fund bond campaigns

lthough state law specifically prohibits public officials from using taxpayers’ money for political campaigning, they have been doing exactly that throughout California. Local governments hire “consultants” to poll voters on what tax and bond measures they would find acceptable, to draft those proposals accordingly and finally, to run so-called “information” campaigns to persuade voters to approve them. It’s so blatant that firms seeking lucrative contracts openly boast of their successful campaigns, eliminating any doubt that they are truly political operatives. The practice has ballooned because local prosecutors and the state attorney general’s office ignore complaints about its illegality. Indeed, local district attorneys often benefit from the higher taxes. Finally, however, we may be seeing some effort to sanitize this very stinky phenomenon which, if left unchecked, will only become more commonplace. Last month, the state Fair Political Practices Commission took a potentially significant action against the Bay Area Rapid Transit District for doing what it and other local governments have been doing. The FPPC voted unanimously to impose a $7,500 fine on BART for failing to report its spending on a bond issue as a campaign contribution. It also asked the attorney general and Bay Area district attorneys to prosecute the transit district for violating the law prohibiting the use of public funds for political campaigns. “It’s not the total (amount) of what was used; it’s the concept of misusing public funds,” FPPC chairwoman Alice Germond said at the commission’s December meeting. “We want to send a warning and not create a precedent that it’s a minor, ‘slap on the wrist’ kind of thing.”

The action stems from a proposed $3.5 billion bond issue, Measure RR, that voters in the three-county district approved two years ago by a 70 percent margin. The “information campaign” for the bond included a video, featuring Golden State Warriors player Draymond Green, that the FPPC said was acceptable, while concluding that two other videos and text messages to voters were clearly advocacy. BART paid a public relations firm, Clifford Moss LLC, $99,000 to craft its measure before the item was placed on the ballot, and the same firm then directed the supposedly independent campaign for the bond measure. The FPPC acted on a complaint from Jason Bezis, a Lafayette attorney. It’s similar to complaints that have been filed about other local bond and tax measures, including those in Los Angeles County, by taxpayer advocacy groups. After the FPPC acted, BART spokeswoman Alicia Trost told the Bay Area News Group that the campaign errors were “accidental.” “We have been and will continue to be committed to following the law,” Trost told BANG. “We accept their finding.” While state law allows agencies to publish accurate information about their proposals, they are not allowed to advocate their passage, and that’s the line that BART and other agencies have obviously and arrogantly been crossing. If they use public money for campaigns, they will, the FPPC implies, be treated like other financiers of political campaigns and be required to file reports. If they file such reports, however, they will be admitting, in effect, that they are violating the law prohibiting such spending. That’s where the prosecutors should come into the picture. They should do their duty, enforce the law and seek personal fines from the officials involved. And the Legislature could, and should, invalidate any local measure that’s passed when those officials ignore the law.

Gavilan kicks off centennial year ‘GAVILAN THROUGH THE DECADES’ SET FOR SEPT. 7, 2019 Staff report

History of Gavilan

Gavilan College was established in 1919 as the San Benito County Junior College, operating under that name until 1963, when a new community college district was drawn that included both San Benito County and southern Santa Clara County. The college moved to its present main campus in 1968. In 1997, satellite sites were added in Hollister and Morgan Hill to augment offerings on the main campus. In 2008, land was purchased in Coyote Valley and San Benito County for the development of additional campuses. In 2017, Phase 1 of the Coyote Valley Center was completed, becoming Gavilan's newest instructional site and the home for South Bay Public Safety Training Consortium police and fire academies. Gavilan College is one of 114 California community colleges, a part of the largest system of higher education in the world.

Gavilan College

Gavilan College will kick off its centennial year with a gala fundraising event looking back at its first 100 years on Sept. 7, 2019, on the Gilroy main campus. “Gavilan Through the Decades” will be held 5:309pm at the 5055 Santa Teresa Blvd. campus in Gilroy. Tickets are now available, as are sponsorships ranging from $500 to $50,000. Gala guests will take a nostalgic and informative stroll through the decades of Gavilan’s history from the 1920s to today. Each decade will feature areas of academia highlighted with education tables, as well as stations with themed food from each decade, wine stations, live music, photo booths, students in period costume, formal portraits, live auction, silent auction, strolling card magician in a tuxedo and a string quartet. When guests check in, they will be given a commemorative wine glass and a program for the evening that contains a map that highlights where each

decade is located and what is taking place in each decade’s area. “We are really looking forward to this celebration, and look forward to welcoming the community to campus for the party of the century,” said President Kathleen Rose.

Local concert to benefit WERC MH SINGER FAULHABER TO ENTERTAIN GUESTS WITH WILD ANIMALTHEMED PERFORMANCE Scott Forstner Reporter

Submitted

A Morgan Hill music teacher and volunteer will combine her two passions to put on a benefit concert to support local wildlife at 7pm Jan. 19 at Advent Lutheran Church, 16870 Murphy Ave. Heather Faulhaber will be joined by Bay Area artists Martin Rojas Dietrich and Justin T. Plank, and accompanied by pianist Anny Cheng for a wild animal-themed performance of art songs and musical theater selections by composers such as John Duke, Aaron Copland, Jake Heggie and Ricky Ian Gordon. Faulhaber is a professional singer, a volunteer at Wildlife Education and Rehabilitation Center and a local voice coach at Music As Language.

WERC’s “Educational Ambassador” animals will be on site at the fundraiser to greet audience members. A reception with the artists will follow the performance. There is a suggested $10 donation at the door, but “we will accept any donation someone is willing to offer,” Faulhaber said. A Morgan Hill resident and professional singer, Faulhaber began volunteering at WERC more than a year ago. “You help take care of animals; you feed them; you help clean up after them. It’s really insightful to see what it takes to take care of these animals in the area.” A silent auction, which includes jewelry pieces created by a local artist, will also be part of the benefit event. WERC, which was established in 1990 by wildlife pioneer Susan Howell, cares for California native wildlife, including songbirds, hummingbirds, birds of prey, small mammals and bobcats. WERC’s ambassadors are often seen at local schools, parades and festivals.

Gilroy Rodeo in permit showdown PROMOTOR HOPEFUL TO GET APPROVAL OF ONGOING RIGHTSTO STAGE RODEO Bryce Stoepfel Reporter

cleared, Martin can focus on expanding the rodeo from two to four days, possibly from Aug. 14-18. “We could start on Wednesday with local roping and barrel racing; we’ll focus on local participation on those days,” Martin said. “Maybe we can add some gymkhana stuff for the kids. It was a jampacked weekend, so we could spread it out.” Due to permit issues prior to the 2018 Gilroy Rodeo, Martin had little time to advertise. Compounding that challenge was a snafu with the online ticket agency. Despite the challenges, the Gilroy Rodeo drew 8,000 attendees. Even with strong ticket

sales, Martin estimated in August that the Gilroy Rodeo lost $20,000. “It needs to be viable. We have the property, but at the same time we don’t want to feed it every year,” Martin said regarding the financial future of the Gilroy Rodeo. “We had a great time, but it depends on how much the county wants every year. We wrote a $45,000 check last year.” The road forward depends on sorting out permits with the county, but unlike last year, Martin has concrete evidence that he can put on a successful rodeo. "It's not pie in the sky anymore; we can show them what we did," Martin said.

File Photo

While the rain may be coming down in Gilroy, rodeo organizer Erik Martin, who staged the return of the Gilroy Rodeo in 2018, already has his eyes on August for the next event. Martin is seeking a special use permit from Santa Clara County, which would allow the rodeo to operate for years to come. But it won't be easy,

and what, according to Martin, should have been completed in 30 days has extended nearly three months due to ongoing wrangling with county officials. Martin is hopeful he’ll get some good news Jan.11 at a meeting with Santa Clara County Planning Department. “I think the good thing is that once you have [the special use permit], you have it for good,” Martin said. “Once we get that, we intend to have the rodeo every year.” The special use permit isn't cheap, with a price tag reaching $100,000. Since Martin is already paying $40,000 to $60,000 in permit fees, the additional cost is worth the price. Once this hurdle is

DA lists scores of violations ➝ Mushroom, 1

Santa Clara County District Attorney’s Office

the city limits—and Fisher Creek flows away from town to the north. “Although the alleged discharges are far to the north of the city’s groundwater supply, residents should understand that the city has and continues to test water quality in order to ensure the water delivered to Morgan Hill is safe,” Tobin said in an email statement. Morgan Hill’s public drinking water is drawn directly from the groundwater basin beneath the city. Fisher Creek flows into Coyote Creek, which flows into the San Francisco Bay. Coyote Creek is home to steelhead trout, California tiger salamanders and California red-legged frogs. The DA’s complaint alleges the environmentally harmful and unfair business practices have been deliberate and pervasive at Monterey Mushrooms, Inc.’s Morgan Hill site. DA Jeff Rosen’s lawsuit is asking the Superior Court for $67 million in damages for Monterey Mushrooms’ alleged repeated violations of the state Fish and Wildlife and Business and Professions codes. The DA’s extensive lawsuit describes in detail and includes photos of how Monterey Mushrooms has allowed, and even manipulated its property to allow the farming operation’s harmful production waste to flow off its property into Fisher Creek in north Morgan Hill. Hay bales used for compost at the site—often

made of used horse stable hay that may contain animal urine and feces—are pictured sitting directly next to the creek in one of the exhibits, with no barrier or collection pond to prevent rain water from washing material into the creek. On one incident in January 2016, Fish and Game wardens observed storm water running off piles of used hay bales, “flowing through an intentionally hand dug ditch and directly into a stream, Fisher Creek,” reads the DA’s complaint. The lawsuit also alleges that employees of Monterey Mushrooms dug up sections of Fisher Creek’s banks, without a permit, to remove weeds. On Feb. 7, 2017, authorities estimated the Morgan Hill site pumped more than 345,000 gallons of wastewater into Fisher Creek. Much of the wastewater pumped into the creek from Monterey Mushrooms’ site, on multiple occasions, contained toxic levels of ammonia, according to the DA’s complaint. In all the DA’s complaint alleges 66 violations of state Fish and Game codes, and one violation of unfair competition laws. The lawsuit alleges Monterey Mushrooms committed the violations in order to cut operation costs. Monterey Mushrooms, one of the nation’s largest mushroom growers, operates other farms in California that fall outside the local jurisdiction. The DA included information about recent violations at these sites as well in the lawsuit, for background information.

LAWSUIT The above photo illustration, presented by the DA’s office as an exhibit in the lawsuit against Monterey Mushrooms,

shows how the grower allegedly diverted stormwater and wastewater from its facilities into Fisher Creek. The photo was taken at the north Morgan Hill facility on Hale Avenue Jan. 31, 2016. The DA’s office added the labels within the picture.

Three other Monterey Mushrooms facilities where the company has allegedly diverted or pumped wastewater into creeks are in Royal Oaks, Watsonville and Arroyo Grande. The company is based in Watsonville. These facilities fall within the oversight jurisdiction of the Central Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board. That board’s Assistant Executive Officer, Matt Keeling, said these three sites have shown “similar types of violations (that) we’re currently working with Monterey Mushrooms to

install an upgraded evaporation pond to the property in order to lawfully deal with production waste. The company asked for an extension on their deadline to install the pond, due to the high cost of the project, but ultimately did not complete the evaporation pond until 2001, the DA’s lawsuit reads. “During the 16 years (from 1985 to 2001), defendants remained in full production and unlawfully discharged their wastewater into (an) unlined percolation pond,” the DA’s complaint says.

Game laws. In a statement in December, Monterey Mushrooms said it was “shocked” by the DA’s lawsuit. A company spokesman said the unpermitted flows of wastewater off the Morgan Hill site in 2016 and 2017 were not intentional, but were the result of torrential rain storms that occurred during the winter months. The DA’s lawsuit also includes a history of Monterey Mushrooms violations at the Morgan Hill site going back to 1985. That year, regulators required the company to

The alleged violations at the Central Coast mushroom facilities date back to 2016, according to Keeling. When asked if wastewater runoff violations are pervasive at Monterey Mushrooms, Keeling said, “It does appear to be so.” The board’s goal at the moment is to make sure these facilities are in compliance with state Fish and

What a difference a year makes. Coming off a middle of the pack finish in the Blossom Valley League’s West Valley Division a year ago, the Live Oak High boys soccer team has legitimate expectations to take the division championship this season. The Acorns returned several impact players from the 2017-2018 team who are a year better and playing in a cohesive manner. “We’re looking pretty good,” said Andres Rosales, who was the West Valley Division Goalkeeper of the Year last season. “We need to keep on talking and communicating, and hopefully we can step it up and make it to CCS and go far if we get there.” With Rosales, sophomore striker Caleb Ojeda, senior midfielder Jesus Duran, and senior defender Connor Dietz all returning, the Acorns are poised for a huge turnaround. Live Oak went 1-1-2 through its first four games of the season, with Ojeda scoring six goals in that span, including a hat trick in a 5-4 win over Santa Clara in a Dec. 19 match. Santa Clara plays in the Santa Clara Valley’s De Anza Division, one of the premier leagues in the section. “That Santa Clara game is where we really showed our talent,” said Ojeda, who had a standout season on the football team in

the fall. “To come up with a result like that against an A-league team, you can tell we’re going to have a better season. Last year, I don’t think we won a game (in non-league before the league season started). We were also coming off two straight losses before playing Santa Clara.” The Acorns led 2-1 at halftime before blitzing the Bruins for three consecutive goals coming out of the halftime break. Two of Ojeda’s three goals came after he blew by the Santa Clara defense and received perfect through balls from Duran, and Ojeda’s other score came when he displayed a Midas touch on a volley off a throw-in. “Jesus gives me amazing through balls that I just have to tap in past the goalie,” Ojeda said. “The ball gets played up from the defense who wins it in the back and then up top. … I’m definitely a speed guy. I’m not the greatest skilled player, so I use my speed to get past defenders.” Rosales has a versatile skill set and will use varying styles depending on the opponent. If the Acorns are facing a kick and chase squad, the 6-foot-4, 190-pounder will stay up and be aggressive to beat oncoming forwards to the ball. If Live Oak is facing a skilled team that utilizes a lot of quick passes, Rosales knows he’ll have to communicate effectively with his teammates—especially his backline—for the Acorns to play to their potential. “I’ll have to get the defense ready and we’ll need to be on the same page,” he said. “My defensive line says I only talk when I get mad at them, which is kind of true. But I have to get on them and get on myself so we can all be at our best.” Rosales knows he’s communicating well with

LIVE OAK IN TO WIN THE BVAL WEST VALLEY AND COMPETE FOR CCS PLAYOFFS

STOPPER Live Oak High goalkeeper Andres Rosales kicks the ball away in earlier action this

season. Rosales was named the BVAL’s West Valley Goalkeeper of the Year last season. his teammates when “I can give them another set of eyes on the back post” on set pieces or corner kicks. “If I don’t do a good job of communicating, that’s how we get scored upon,” he said.

All the stops

Agile, athletic and possessing cat-like reflexes, Rosales can make the routine save and the game-changing ones as well. Playing the sport since age 4, Rosales switched from a field player to goalkeeper in the eighth grade upon realizing he didn’t have the prerequisite speed to excel in the field. Rosales will rely heavily upon Dietz—a standout defender—to organize things in the back and make plays. When he’s not in goal

for Live Oak, Rosales plays for the De Anza Force Soccer Club. In the last club season, Rosales played for the Force’s 17-and-under team that won its league and got promoted to play in a higher National Premier League division for the upcoming season. Rosales got to play for the Force’s Academy team that competed in the prestigious San Diego Surf Cup Tournament in November. “It was one of the best experiences of my life,” he said. “I’m going to try to bring everything I’ve learned in club and help Live Oak win as many games as possible.” Ojeda also started playing soccer at a young age, but he took a break from the sport starting in the sixth grade to focus on

football. However, Ojeda picked up soccer again in his freshman year and hasn’t looked back since. Possessing a goal scorer’s sense and a knack to be in the right position at the right time, Ojeda will have to make adjustments as defenses start gearing their attention toward him. The speedy Ojeda, who scored around seven goals last season, is up for the challenge. In much the same way he made adjustments on the football field, Ojeda has the ability to do the same on the pitch. With a nice blend of returning players along with some key newcomers who played on the junior varsity team that won a division title a year ago, the Acorns seek to make a major move up the standings this season.

OBITUARIES MARILYN KAY MACKENZIE BURBANK July 1940 - December 9, 2018

arilyn Kay MacKenzie Burbank went home to glory on Sunday, December 9, 2018 at the home of her son in Hollister, California after a mighty battle with cancer. Born in July 1940 to William MacKenzie and Francis Peters MacKenzie in San Mateo, California, Marilyn was raised in San Jose and Los Gatos with her brother James.

Marilyn graduated from Los Gatos High School in 1958, hoping to be a veterinarian but instead fell in love and raised three boys—Michael Barry, David Lee, and Shennon Doa—with L. Barry Wells. She helped feed, clothe, and roof these growing boys by working at County Bank of Santa Cruz for 19 years. In 1984, Marilyn moved to Wimer, Oregon on a ranch where her parents had retired. There she met and married Harry Burbank, whom she adored. They spent time hiking and roaming about Oregon until Hars succumbed to lung cancer in 1996. Marilyn’s life was full of activities, talents, volunteering, and critters. Even when health issues crippled her body, Marilyn continued to serve others. This lady could not be conquered nor her generosity contained. With all her good qualities, Marilyn had a fierce streak. Humans and critters alike knew they must yield to the mighty finger! A celebration of this amazing woman is planned for Summer 2019. Marilyn Burbank: fierce, generous, alive. Thank you for a life well lived.
