Industrial project to face impact study RESIDENTS CONCERNED ABOUT TRAFFIC Erik Chalhoub Business Editor
➝ Trammell Crow, 16
Scott Hinrichs
Officials are preparing an environmental report for a project that would be one of the largest industrial developments in Morgan Hill. The city’s Planning Commission held a “scoping” meeting on April 23 for the 61-acre project, proposed adjacent to U.S. 101 at Cochrane Road, near the De Paul Health Center in northeast Morgan Hill. Earlier this year, Dallas-based developer Trammell Crow purchased the property and submitted an application to the city to rezone a majority of the land for industrial use. The project, called the Morgan Hill Technology Center, proposes construction of up to one million square feet of industrial and commercial space, as well as up to 300 housing units. Akoni Danielsen of David J. Powers and Associates, a consulting company that is helping the city prepare the environmental report, said the purpose of the meeting was to provide input on what should be studied about the project proposal. The draft environmental impact report is

Volunteers repair homes MORGAN HILL ROTARY PITCHES IN TO HELP ELDERLY COUPLE Barry Holtzclaw Managing Editor
More than 1,000 volunteers from companies, churches, service clubs and other community organizations spent Saturday, April 27 repairing and rebuilding homes of the needy in Santa Clara County.
Included among the 36 work sites for the countywide Spring Rebuilding Day, an annual project of Rebuilding Together Silicon Valley, were three residences in two Gilroy mobile home park, and another in a Morgan Hill mobile home park. In a thank-you message to volunteers after the event, the sponsoring non-profit said, “Your hard work and kindness to our neighbors, who cannot make these repairs on their own,
have made a huge difference for not only the homeowner but for our entire community.” The Saturday effort laid down 2,332 square feet of carpet, used 570 gallons of interior and exterior paint and cleared 450 cubic yards of debris, according to sponsors. At a house at the south end of downtown Gilroy, a 76-year-old retiree welcomed volunteers from the New Hope Community Church on Saturday. The work crew
repaired her siding, moved debris and installed a safety strap on her water heater. A team of workers from the Rotary Club of Morgan Hill, armed with hammers and paintbrushes, descended on a mobile home off Walnut Drive to help an elderly couple, aged 95 and 87. They painted, replaced carpet and installed smoke detectors. The husband suffers from dementia and prostate cancer, and the wife
suffers from high blood pressure and diabetes. At a mobile home park off Murray Avenue in Gilroy, Lockheed Martin employees helped with repairs to the home of a 90-year-old Army veteran who suffers from kidney failure. Annually, Rebuilding Together provides no-cost safety repairs on over 400 homes. For more information about sponsorships and volunteering, visit rebuildingtogethersv.org.
Cordoba nears approval decision SAN MARTIN PLANNING ADVISORY COMMITTEE TO MEET MAY 16 Jaqueline McCool Reporter
Santa Clara County planners and supervisors could vote this month on plans by the South Valley Islamic Community for a major multiuse project at 1405 Monterey Road in San Martin. In the works for more than a decade, the project’s final environmental impact report (EIR) was published in April.
The final EIR addresses public comments made following the draft report, and will be the subject of a series of public hearings—including the May 23 county planning commission session— in the coming days. The Cordoba Center, if approved, is set to include a mosque, a community building, a cemetery, a maintenance building, a caretaker’s dwelling, a youth camp, a field and playground, a plaza and an orchard. These facilities are proposed on a 15.77-acre lot at the highest point in San Martin, on a space currently zoned agricultural and residential.
One of the biggest points of concern from the public regarding the Cordoba Center has been the proposed cemetery site. San Martin residents had expressed concern over the cemetery's effects on San Martin’s groundwater. The draft EIR stated that the cemetery had the potential to affect groundwater supply if not mitigated, but that there would be a mitigation plan put in place. Santa Clara County Planning Manager Rob Eastwood said planners consulted with the regional water resource board when ➝ Cordoba Center, 14

MHPD CAUTIONS RESIDENTS TO CELEBRATE RESPONSIBLY Staff report
With the upcoming Cinco de Mayo holiday promising to bring alcohol-driven revelry to public places, Morgan Hill police will post additional officers on the streets that evening to combat drunken driving. MHPD said in a press release that Cinco de Mayo is a “reminder to the public to celebrate responsibly and not drive impaired.” From 10pm to 3am May 5, Morgan Hill police will have additional officers on patrol throughout the city, ready to stop and arrest drivers suspected of driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs. “We understand the
importance of this day to many people, but it does not give you an excuse to drink and drive,” Morgan Hill Police Sgt. Ray Ramos said. “There are many options to get home safely that don’t involve you driving.” MHPD urges everyone to plan ahead and use a designated sober driver, ride-share or public transportation, reads an April 27 press release. Police also wanted to remind everyone that “DUI Doesn’t Just Mean Booze.” Prescription drugs, over-the-counter medications and marijuana can all be impairing, especially in combination with alcohol or other drugs. Funding for Cinco de Mayo DUI enforcement is provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

More police on streets for Cinco de Mayo NEWLY SWORN Five new Morgan Hill Police officers took their oaths of office at a ceremony attended by their families
and friends April 16 at City Council meeting chambers. Pictured after the swearing-in ceremony are (left to right) Officers Sarah Una’Dia, Eddy Gutierrez, Sam Huezo, Kira Sareli and Jarred Huddleston.
City welcomes new cops FIVE MHPD OFFICERS SWORN IN AT APRIL 16 CEREMONY Michael Moore Editor
Five new Morgan Hill Police officers took their oaths of duty a couple weeks ago, and the city is looking to fill even more police positions in the coming months. For fiscals years 2018-19 and 201920, the Morgan Hill City Council has approved funding for three new police positions, two of which have been recently filled. The third new position will be open as of July 1 (the beginning of the next fiscal year), and will bring the total number of sworn officer positions to 42 within Morgan Hill Police Department, Police Chief David Swing said. Add in some recent retirements and officers leaving Morgan Hill for various reasons in recent months, and the MHPD is “in a recruiting and hiring mode, so our community will see some new faces on the streets in those black and white police cars,” Swing said.
Sworn in by City Clark Irma Torrez April 16 at Morgan Hill City Council Chambers were five of the city’s newest officers: • Officer Sam Huezo started with MHPD in August 2018. He was hired to MHPD laterally from Salinas Police Department, where he had been working patrol, according to MHPD Sgt. Bill Norman. Huezo is an Army veteran who served in Iraq. In Morgan Hill, he is currently assigned to patrol nights. • Officer Kira Sareli is a recent graduate of the San Jose Police Academy who started working at MHPD in August 2018. Sareli is currently in the local department’s field training program, Norman said. • Officer Sarah Una’Dia was hired laterally from the Santa Clara County Sheriff ’s Office, where she began her law enforcement career in 2017, Norman said. Una’Dia worked courts and the sheriff ’s westside division patrol before joining MHPD. She is currently in the MHPD field training program. • Officer Eddy Gutierrez started with MHPD in March 2019. He previously worked patrol for Oakland PD.
Gutierrez is a Marine Corps veteran who served in Afghanistan, and is currently in Morgan Hill’s field training program, according to Norman. • Animal Service Officer Jarred Huddleston started his career with MHPD in 2018 as the city’s graffiti abatement officer. Before that, Huddleston was active in MHPD’s Police Explorers program. He was recently promoted to animal services officer when the City Council re-established funding for that position. “I’m certainly excited about having our new officers on board,” Swing said. “Each fits well into our organization, and brings a different way of policing. We’re looking forward to adding that to how we provide service.” There are currently two open police officer positions posted on the city’s job opportunities webpage. The starting salary for a police officer-lateral/academy graduate is listed as $93,584.28 to $119,439.84 per year; the starting salary for the temporary police officer recruit position is $7,018.82 per month.

College students may soon be allowed to sleep in their vehicles overnight on campuses across the state, if a new bill being reviewed by the State Assembly becomes a law. The parking proposal measure—proposed by a Palo Alto assembly member to help address a component of the larger homelessness epidemic—would kick in July 1, 2020. The State Assembly’s higher education committee reviewed the bill at a recent session. “We are aware of this bill. It has not yet been passed into law, but If it does, it will apply to all California community colleges, including Gavilan,” said Gavilan spokesperson Jan Bernstein-Chargin. Overnight parking is not currently allowed on the Gavilan campus, Bernstein-Chargin noted.
According to multiple news reports, a survey conducted by the Hope Center concluded that nearly 20 percent of California community college students surveyed reported experiencing homelessness within the past year. “Existing law requires a community college campus that has shower facilities for student use to grant access, as specified, to those facilities to any homeless student who is enrolled in coursework, has paid enrollment fees and is in good standing with the community college district, and requires the community college to determine a plan of action to implement this requirement,” according to the legislative digest for AB302. The new bill would apply to the same group of students “for the purpose of sleeping in the student’s vehicle overnight.” Each college’s governing boards would “determine a plan of action to implement this requirement, as specified” and “impose a state-mandated local program.”
Other parameters of the bill would call for participants to submit an overnight parking form and liability waiver in order to access the overnight parking facilities. “It is an issue for the students involved; they have a difficult time getting a good night’s rest, and face the possibility of being ticketed or awakened during the night if they don’t have a designated place to park,” said Bernstein-Chargin, also a homeless advocate for the Compassion Center in Gilroy. “The issue for the college is in supporting these students and helping them succeed.” The Hope Center surveyed nearly 40,000 students at 57 community colleges, and found more than half felt insecure about their housing situations the previous year, according to one news report. The bill is sponsored by State Assemblymember Marc Berman (D-Palo Alto).

Proposed bill could aid earthquake readiness
T
wenty-five years ago Northridge was hit by a magnitude 6.7 earthquake, killing 57 people, causing more than $20 billion in damage, wrecking homes and apartments. Ghost towns replaced once thriving neighborhoods because many people couldn’t afford to rebuild, and businesses were forced to close. We know it will happen again. Scientists say there is more than a 99 percent chance of another magnitude 6.7 or larger earthquake striking somewhere in California within the next 30 years. To make matters worse, 83 percent of Californians live in areas that are considered high seismic risk zones and are squarely in harm’s way. Seismic codes for our homes were adopted statewide in 1980. The majority of our housing was built before then and is more vulnerable to serious damage in an earthquake. The question is: What are we doing to prepare? Sen. Bob Hertzberg, who district was hit hard by the Northridge earthquake, has introduced the Resilient Homes Initiative, Senate Bill 254. It would authorize the California Earthquake Authority to invest $75 million a year in retrofitting vulnerable homes. As state treasurer, I serve on the California Earthquake Authority’s governing board. Recognizing the urgent need for this legislation, the board voted to sponsor this bill, and I am committed to working with the Legislature to make sure it is enacted. The California Earthquake Authority is unique. It’s a not-for-profit insurance company with a public mission. We have a unique opportunity to increase residential resilience by tapping into the financial strength of the earthquake authority, which is entirely privately funded.

The earthquake authority is able to retrofit about 2,000 homes a year through its Earthquake Brace + Bolt program. SB 254 bill would allow the authority to increase the number of retrofits to 25,000 per year, an unprecedented commitment to increasing our residential resilience. The legislation would allow the earthquake authority to lower its reinsurance costs (that is, the insurance that insurance companies purchase to help cover future losses) and spend the resulting savings on retrofitting homes. In the event of an unprecedented earthquake—one far more damaging than a recurrence of either the 1994 Northridge or 1906 San Francisco disasters—a privately funded financial backstop would kick in to bolster the California Earthquake Authority’s ability to pay claims. This backstop would save the authority about $70 million each year in reinsurance costs. That savings would be invested in retrofitting homes. The earthquake authority would undertake the largest residential retrofit program that California, and perhaps the world, has ever seen, in exchange for the creation of a privately funded financial backstop. And while the probability of the backstop ever being needed is less than one-half of 1 percent, there would be 100 percent certainty that our neighborhoods would become more resilient. In retrospect, we should have endeavored to strengthen more of our homes a quarter of a century ago. But we have the knowledge, resources and resolve to act now, before it is too late. I urge the Legislature to quickly pass the Resilient Homes Initiative.

Re: ‘Homeless college students to sleep in cars on campus?’ While at Cal Poly, I was on a baseball scholarship that paid for tuition and $100 per quarter for books. We practiced year-round, including all day on Saturday and Sunday. I was unable to get a job because there was simply no time to work. My mom worked two jobs and was unable to provide any financial assistance. For a period of three months I slept in my truck (I had a camper shell) outside of the gym. Every morning I would shower inside the PE locker room. I later had teammates who would allow me to “couch surf” for the remainder of the year.

Wasserman seeks sanctuary solution MURDER IGNITES SANCTUARY CITY DEBATE Jaqueline McCool Reporter
The February murder of Santa Clara County resident Bambi Larson by undocumented immigrant Carlos Eduardo Arevalo-Carranza, triggered a continuing debate within the county about local and state sanctuary city laws. At an April 26 legislative conference in Gilroy, County Supervisor Mike Wasserman told a crowd of South County politicians and residents that the county was following state law when it came to releasing individuals to other government agencies. Wasserman’s District 1 includes both Gilroy and Morgan Hill. “I want you all to know, despite what you read in the paper, despite what you see on TV, California law is that no county can honor a civil detainer. All counties must honor judicial warrants; it’s that simple,” said Wasserman. “Somebody comes to our jail and hands us a civil detainer, we say, ‘Sorry, we can’t honor that, according to state law.’ If they hand us a judicial warrant, we hand them the individual in handcuffs.” Arevalo-Carranza stands accused of stabbing Larson Feb. 28 in her San Jose home following two releases from Santa Clara County jail earlier in the month. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) had issued nine civil detainers for Arevalo-Carranza, but the county’s

MORGAN HILL TIMES
Mike Wasserman sanctuary policy does not allow local police to comply with the detainers, only warrants from a judge. The county ordinance has stricter language than the state law, the California Values Act (SB-54), which according to the bill’s text, “would, among other things and subject to exceptions, prohibit state and local law enforcement agencies, including school police and security departments, from using money or personnel to investigate, interrogate, detain, detect or arrest persons for immigration enforcement purposes, as specified, and would, subject to exceptions, proscribe other activities or conduct in connection with immigration enforcement by law enforcement agencies.” The Ninth Circuit Court of
Appeals upheld SB-54 on March 13 after the Trump administration had filed suit seeking a preliminary injunction. Wasserman cited this decision in his remarks at the conference. He said that the county had previously cooperated with immigration officials when warrants were issued, but could not comply with detainers. In 2011, the county passed its civil detainer policy. Wasserman was the only dissenting vote. “Last year ICE came to use three or four times with warrants; we gave them the person,” said Wasserman. “This particular instance, they came to us several times with a detainer, which we said, ‘State law says we cannot accept. Come back with a warrant and we will give you that person.’ And they refused to do so.’ ” The Santa Clara County Supervisors voted 4-1 April 9 to have staff come back with possible amendments to the county’s sanctuary ordinance. In two months, county staff is to present possible changes to the supervisors. Wasserman and Supervisor Dave Cortese made a joint proposal that asked staff to return with recommendations to update the local law. At the supervisor’s meeting, Wasserman voiced support for local law enforcement communicating with ICE about the release dates of specific convicted criminals. Prior to the meeting all county police chiefs, San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo and Santa Clara County District Attorney Jeff Rosen signed a letter urging the supervisors to amend the county sanctuary policy.
Bicycle Safety Month starts on May 1 CITY PREPARES FOR UPCOMING CYCLING EVENTS Staff report
May is National Bicycle Safety Month, and local city officials and police will be marking the occasion with education, awareness and enforcement efforts in the coming weeks. Morgan Hill Police and the California Office of Traffic Safety officials are encouraging motorists and bicyclists to look out for one another during National Bicycle Safety Month. “Traffic safety is a shared responsibility,” said MHPD Sgt. Ray Ramos. “People get around in a variety of ways, including bikes and walking, so it is important that we are aware of one another and do our part to ensure everyone is able to get to their destination safely.” Deaths in bicycle-related crashes are on the rise, according to authorities. In 2016, 138 bicycle riders were killed on California roads, a nearly 25 percent increase from 2011. Among the primary factors in these crashes were failing to yield right of way, speeding, improper turning, using the wrong side of the road and not following traffic signs or signals, reads a press release from Morgan Hill police. The City of Morgan Hill and the Chamber of Commerce, in collaboration with Specialized Bicycles and Bike Therapy, will host a free
Bicycle Rodeo Festival from May 11 from noon to 3pm in the parking lot at the corner of Depot and First streets. To learn more about safe ways to get around, visit morgan-hill. ca.gov and gosafelyca.org.
City gears up for Tour
National Bicycle Safety Month coincides with a number of local events during May that further promote cycling as a fitness activity, mode of transportation or competitive sport. On May 14, the Amgen Tour of California—one of the most prestigious professional cycling races in the world— will once again make its way through Morgan Hill. This time, the city will host the men’s Stage 3 finish line of the annual tour. The 128.6-mile Stage 3 will start in Stockton and finish near the Morgan Hill Outdoor Sports Center on Condit Road. The race will require the closure of numerous street segments and intersections in Morgan Hill from approximately 2:45pm to 3:45pm May 14. To see a detailed list and map of street closure locations and times, visit morganhill.ca.gov/DocumentCenter/ View/24295/2019-DetailedCourse-Closure-Impacts The men’s Amgen Tour features a total of seven stages from May 12 to May 18, starting in Sacramento and ending in Pasadena. The total race distance is 773 miles, and will start with 19 professional cycling teams and more than 200 riders.

As of 02/15/2019, the standard interest rate and APY for a Platinum Savings account in AZ, CA, CO, ND, NM, NV, OR, SD and WA with an account balance of $0.01 and above is 0.05% (0.05% APY). Each tier shown reflects the current minimum daily collected balance required to obtain the applicable APY. Interest is compounded daily and paid monthly. The amount of interest earned is based on the daily collected balances in the account. Upon the expiration of the 12 month promotional period, standard interest rates apply. Minimum to open a Platinum Savings account is $25. A monthly service fee of $12 applies in any month the account falls below a $3,500 minimum daily balance. Fees may reduce earnings.

Offer not available to Private Banking or Wealth customers. 2. Annual Percentage Yield (APY) is effective for accounts opened between 03/25/2019 to 05/31/2019. The 11-month New Dollar CD special requires a minimum of $25,000 brought to Wells Fargo from sources outside of Wells Fargo Bank N.A., or its affiliates to earn the advertised APY. Public Funds and Wholesale accounts are not eligible for this offer. APY assumes interest remains on deposit until maturity. Interest is compounded daily. Payment of interest on CDs is based on term: For terms less than 12 months (365 days), interest may be paid monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or at maturity (the end of the term). For terms of 12 months or more, interest may be paid monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or annually. A fee for early withdrawal will be imposed and could reduce earnings on this account. Special Rates are applicable to the initial term of the CD only. At maturity, the Special Rate CD will automatically renew for a term of 6 months, at the interest rate and APY in effect for CDs on renewal date not subject to a Special Rate, unless the Bank has notified you otherwise. 1,2. Due to the new money requirement, accounts may only be opened at your local branch. Wells Fargo reserves the right to modify or discontinue the offer at any time without notice. Minimum new money deposit requirement of at least $25,000 is for this offer only and cannot be transferred to another account to qualify for any other consumer deposit offer. If you wish to take advantage of another consumer deposit offer requiring a minimum new money deposit, you will be required to do so with another new money deposit as stated in the offer requirements and qualifications. Offer cannot be combined with any other consumer deposit offer, except the Portfolio by Wells Fargo $500 offer, available from March 25, 2019 until May 31, 2019. Offer cannot be reproduced, purchased, sold, transferred, or traded. 3.

If the Portfolio by Wells Fargo relationship is terminated, the bonus interest rate on all eligible savings accounts, and discounts or fee waivers on other products and services, will discontinue and revert to the Bank’s then-current applicable rate or fee. For bonus interest rates on time accounts, this change will occur upon renewal. If the Portfolio by Wells Fargo relationship is terminated, the remaining unlinked Wells Fargo Portfolio Checking or Wells Fargo Prime Checking account will be converted to another checking product or closed. © 2019 Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.

Ed notebook: New Walsh principal LOCAL STUDENTS EXCEL IN COUNTY COMPETITIONS Scott Forstner Reporter
Third-grader wins countywide art contest
Willy Ramirez Salgado, a third-grader at San Martin Gwinn Environmental Science Academy, was one of 26 winners selected by the Santa Clara County Office of Education for the 2019 Young Artists Showcase. More than 100 public and charter school students from 20 school districts within the county submitted their artwork. The top entrees in each grade level from transitional kindergarten through 12th grade were honored for their artistic ability. This year’s theme, “Your Art, Your Story,” encouraged participants to tell their story through their art. Salgado’s artwork was titled “El Tauro.” The medium of the piece is acrylic paint, acrylic canvas panel and brushes. The winning entries will be unveiled at the Young Artist Showcase Celebration at 4:30pm Tuesday, May 21at the SCCOE, located at 1290 Ridder Park Drive in San Jose. “The pool of artwork this year was absolutely incredible,” said Jeannine Flores, visual and
performing arts coordinator for the SCCOE. “Each year, I am blown away by the creativity and pure talent expressed by Santa Clara County students. Thank you to the parents, teachers, principals and leaders who encourage our students to express themselves with authenticity.” The SCCOE accepted 2D, 3D or 4D student artwork to become part of the permanent collection. The Young Artist Showcase Gallery within the SCCOE is the largest collection of adjudicated student artwork in California, with over 900 pieces. Students have the choice of having their original work or a facsimile added to the permanent collection. Included in the collection are paintings, drawings, watercolors, photographs, sculptures and multimedia works. The Young Artist Showcase Gallery is open to the public during business hours. A total of 26 pieces will be added to the collection in 2019.
Pair of Acorns win county viral video contest
Two Live Oak High School students, Connor Dietz and Gavin Vallez, took home first place honors in the County of Santa Clara Public Health Department’s Viral Video Contest.

A San Martin assistant principal will head to another Morgan Hill Unified School District campus next year, with the promotion of Shannon Rafat to principal at PA Walsh STEAM Academy, according to a recent staff announcement. Rafat, an interim assistant principal at San Martin/Gwinn Environmental Science Academy, will begin her new leadership role at Walsh in the 201920 school year. During her career in education, Rafat has served as a bilingual classroom teacher, a teacher on special assignment in math and science, a reading intervention specialist, and interim assistant principal. “My involvement building programs from the initial phase, helping create focused curriculum and working with staff, parents and students in Title I schools has led me to believe that focus academies are crucial to developing hands-on learning opportunities for students,” Rafat said. Rafat was hired in Morgan Hill in 2012 as a teacher at San Martin/ Gwinn, working closely with foundational literacy and coordinating enrichment and intervention programs. In 2015, Rafat became the interim assistant principal, assisting the school with administrative duties related to it’s
expanding K-8 program with both the dual immersion strand and the environmental science focus. “Shannon has a clear understanding of the academic and social-emotional needs of all learners, and her experiences in our district demonstrate her willingness to implement effective programs to address students’ needs,” according to the district’s announcement.
EL TAURO Third-grade artist Willy Ramirez Salgado is one of 26 winners in the Santa
Clara County Office of Education’s Young Artist Showcase. He won with his painting ‘El Tauro,’ pictured above, which he painted in acrylic. The award comes with $1,500 paid directly to the two students and $500 awarded to Live Oak High School for the achievement. The duo was assisted by teacher adviser William Row. Two other groups of students from LOHS student groups that placed highly included Sami Arce, Cynthia Bernardino, Emma Burns, Ana Fuenzalida, Robert Harnette, Skylaire Hudson, Camille Kubota, Kobe Nguyen, Maribel Romo and Travis Tran.
Britton students compete with county’s best
Britton Middle School eighth-grader Ben Hayes, as well as the duo of Rea
Deshpande and Lexi D’Amico, received high praise at Santa Clara Valley Science and Engineering Fair Assocation’s 2019 Synopsys Science & Technology Championship. Hayes’ “Creek Stew” project was selected as an honorable mention. Along with Deshpande and D’Amico, other local students who participated in the county science fair included Martin Murphy’s Alexander Nguyen and San Martin/Gwinn’s Samantha Togliatti. Deshpande also competed in the 2019 Tech Challenge at the Tech Museum, with eighthgrade teammate Paras Gandhi and Corbin Schweigert. The team received a Judges
Choice Award for Rapid Troubleshooting. They competed against 200 middle school teams.

PROPOSED MOSQUE An architect’s rendering shows what the Cordoba Center would look like at the intersection of Monterey Road and California Avenue in San Martin.
EIR addresses mosque concerns Cordoba Center, 1 creating mitigation plans. But there were no existing standards, so experts were hired “to go in and craft a very conservative standard.” For the first five years, Eastwood said there will be a limit of 30 burial sites per year, with annual monitoring of groundwater quality. When the draft EIR on the Cordoba Center was released in July 2018, it began a public comment period. San Martin and Santa Clara County
residents spoke at public meetings, voiced concerns and asked questions about the project. All submitted and spoken comments were addressed in the final report. Eastwood said there were no major changes made to the report in light of the comments; if there had been, the report would have been re-released. The Cordoba Center proposal has been a whirlwind of controversy, momentarily getting derailed and sparking intense comments at public input sessions held
since 2012. The South Valley Islamic Community has applied to build the project at least twice in the last decade, most recently in 2016. The mosque would be the only worship center for the South Valley Islamic Community, which submitted the project proposals. The Islamic community currently meets in a barn in San Martin to worship. The Cordoba Center would serve the Islamic community throughout Santa Clara County and the South Valley.
Hamdy Abbass, an SVIC member and spokesman, said he hoped the final EIR would be enough for the public to see the project has met all of the guidelines required by the county. “After 12 years of struggling to get this project, we did everything that was asked of us by the county and we’re awaiting the decision from the commission,” said Abass. “We hope that people look at the project itself for the merits and not the emotions.” The next steps of the
project include a joint study session for the San Martin Advisory Committee and Santa Clara County Planning Commission on May 2. The planning commission will then hear staff recommendations at a May 16 meeting, and a decision on approval or denial is expected to be made at a May 23 planning commission meeting. Eastwood said the project approval is a planning commission decision, but that the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors would
have to decide on the cemetery permit. However, Eastwood told the Times he believed, “There’s a high likelihood that someone will appeal the planning commission’s decision,” given the project’s controversial history. If this were to happen, Eastwood said there would be 15 days for an appeal to be filed, and then the ultimate decision would go to the Board of Supervisors. Eastwood expected the entire approval process to last about six months.

MH-based lumber co. to pay $375K over sawmill death RAUL LULE DIED IN 2013 AT SONOMA COUNTY FACILITY Michael Moore Editor

A Morgan Hill-based lumber company reached a $375,000 settlement agreement with a Northern California county over the death of a sawmill employee in 2013. The April 25 settlement with the Sonoma County district attorney’s office resolves a lawsuit that office filed against Pacific States Industries that alleged unlawful business practices and violations of worker safety laws in relation to the death, according to a statement from Sonoma County DA Jill Ravitch. “Sonoma County businesses must put safety first, before profits,” Ravitch said in a press release. “To do otherwise is to maintain unlawful business practices with an unfair advantage over businesses that are following worker safety laws.” The DA filed an unlawful business practices complaint in 2016, following a 2014 referral for prosecution by the California Office of Occupational and Safety Hazards (Cal-OSHA), states the press release. That referral followed the death of millwright Raul Lule at Pacific State Industries’ McCray Road sawmill in Cloverdale on April 10, 2013. Pacific States Industries is better known as Redwood Empire Wholesale Lumber Products. The company’s headquarters is located on Madrone Avenue in Morgan Hill. Redwood Empire General Manager Bill Highsmith said in a statement that the April 25 settlement with the Sonoma County DA is not an admission of guilt or
wrongdoing on the part of Pacific States Industries. “Under the agreement, Pacific States Industries will continue, as in the past, to enforce all regulations pertaining to workplace safety in its operations,” Highsmith said. Cal-OSHA’s report suggested the Lule died in a bark conveyor that the employees regularly walked on while unclogging jammed timber material, the DA’s press release continues. The DA’s office conducted an investigation and identified a “culture of production over safety at the mill.” The DA also found that Redwood Empire’s two other facilities in Sonoma County did not have written procedures to guide employees working on and cleaning machinery and equipment, including the bark conveyor where Lule died. The DA noted that the California Code of Regulations requires that companies have written procedures for employees who work on machinery and equipment. Employees are required by state law to shut off machinery and equipment before they service or otherwise work on it if the machinery or equipment could move and cause injury. Under the April 25 settlement, Pacific States Industries and Sonoma County agreed that Pacific States will improve its safety protocol, including maintaining written procedures for employees at the company’s three Sonoma County locations, the DA’s release states. Furthermore, Pacific States agreed to pay a total of $375,000 in civil penalties, restitution and costs, according to the DAs office. Of that amount, Lule’s wife and children will receive $177,500. The DAs office will receive $197,500 for investigative costs and penalties.

expected to be released later this year, when the public will have the opportunity to comment on it. “Tonight’s meeting is not an approval hearing; we are nowhere close to that point yet,” Danielsen said. “This is a very early stage in the process.” The report will look at issues such as traffic, air quality, noise and other anticipated impacts. No tenants have been identified for the project. Rick Kent, president of the Mission Ranch Homeowners Association, said such a project, which is adjacent to the 300-home development, would severely impact traffic in his
neighborhood. He asked for the report to look at ways to mitigate traffic on Mission View Drive. “We would like to make sure we’re not in a situation where Mission View turns into Butterfield Boulevard, and we really have a lot of traffic problems,” Kent said. Stephanie Knauss, who lives in nearby Coyote Estates, said the project, which estimates nearly 200 loading docks for trucks, is “not what Morgan Hill is.” “We did not choose this neighborhood knowing that there’s a potential to have literally the largest trucking distribution center in the region,” she said.

Commissioner Liam Downey said that while he appreciated city staff notifying residents within a 600-foot radius of the project, he felt that more people needed to be alerted. “If we’ve got a project as big as this coming to the city, I think the community in general needs to know more about it,” he said. “We need to find a way to engage them more.” Downey also questioned how the report could adequately address issues without knowing the possible tenants of the project. “I find it hard to understand how you do a proper environmental assessment because of the vagueness,” he said.

ALL-AROUND PLAYER Sobrato High junior utility Alex Percini has contributed to the Bulldogs’ success on the mound, in the field and with the bat. Percini pitched four shutout innings of relief in a 12-2 win over Prospect on April 23. Sobrato entered the week in first place with a 9-1 division record.
BASEBALL
In the pole position SOBRATO HIGH ENTERS THE WEEK IN 1ST PLACE IN BVAL SANTA TERESA emanuel lee Sports Editor
Young talent thrives
The Bulldogs have talented young players who will continue to develop, with Conn being a prime example. As a freshman last season, Conn had no confidence in his swing. However, Conn worked with one of his personal coaches—Gilroy High co-coach Dennis Castro—who helped Conn overhaul his swing to make it more compact. The hard work and change have paid off as Conn has had some productive games, including a game in which he was a home run short of the cycle, a 12-2 win over Prospect on April 23. “Before I had my arms out so I couldn’t hit anything inside,” Conn said. “But after working on my swing change I’m able to hit inside-outside and now it’s mostly mental with sequences and all that. It’s made a huge difference.”
Robert Eliason
With a two-game sweep of previously co-leader Oak Grove two weeks ago, the Sobrato High baseball team catapulted itself into the driver’s seat to win the Blossom Valley League’s Santa Teresa Division championship and with that an automatic berth into the Central Coast Section playoffs. In the same week the Bulldogs swept Oak Grove, Silver Creek defeated the other previous co-leader, Piedmont Hills. Entering this week’s play, Sobrato sat atop the division standings at 9-1, with Piedmont Hills and Oak Grove both a game back at 8-2. The top two finishers in the Santa Teresa Division earn automatic bids into the postseason, and in all likelihood that is the road Sobrato must take to extend its season. That’s because it is highly unlikely the Bulldogs will have enough power points to get into the playoff field should they have to compete with other teams for an at-large bid. “We just have to continue to play the way we’ve been playing,” Bulldogs coach Mitch Martinez said. “If we do, we’re in good shape for the playoffs. Our defense has been good and our pitching has been successful. We always play small ball, but we do get the big hits when we need them.” Especially against Oak Grove, as William Conn, Shane Callison and Justin Rashid combined for six of the team’s eight hits in a 3-2 win over the Eagles on April 16. Joshua Balderas pitched a
complete game, allowing just five hits while walking five in a 102-pitch performance. Three days later, Sobrato pulled away for a 4-0 win behind the pitching of Rashid, who was masterful in a three-hit shutout. Rashid also helped his own cause with two hits and a RBI, while Cooper Callison and Shane Callison both went 3 for 4 with two runs scored. Sobrato has been boosted by the play of Shane Callison, a freshman who was brought up from the junior varsity team in early April. Shane has made an immediate impact in the lineup and could be a factor on the bump as well. “Shane has been a great help, a hitting machine,” Conn said. “He gets on base and we do our best to get him in.” Said Martinez: “I’ve coached Shane since he was 6 years old, so I knew what he was capable of. He came up as a right fielder, but he’s a utility guy who can play a couple of positions. I also see him possibly pitching since he was the No. 1 or 2 for the JV.”
COMING THROUGH Bulldogs junior Joshua Balderas has produced some gems on the mound this season, none bigger than a complete-game performance in a win over previous league unbeaten Oak Grove two weeks ago. The Bulldogs are seemingly peaking at the perfect time. They’ve had their fair share of close losses, with one-run defeats to Live Oak being the most glaring. But the 3-2 win over Oak Grove showed they have the ability to deliver the clutch hit and come up big
when it matters the most. “Everybody wants to get the hit and we’re all hungry to win,” Conn said. “We have confidence and that is helping us along with our chemistry. Chemistry is everything, and we’ve really bonded recently and it’s helped us.”
With no superstars, Sobrato truly relies on everyone in the lineup to do their job. Nick Kettner, Camden Redfield, Will Nikitas, Michael Barone and Alex Percini have all made an impact, with Percini pitching four innings of shutout relief against Prospect.

Local swimmers take league titles ANNIE LY ENTERS CCS MEET WITH 14TH FASTEST TIME IN 100 BUTTERFLY emanuel lee Sports Editor
A
Ethan Caspillo was victorious in 1:38.54. Although Ly didn’t hit any personal-records (PRs), she is swimming well and could be on the verge of hitting her fastest times ever at CCS. “In the 200 IM, I’m hoping to go under 2:09, maybe 2:08 or 2:07,” she said. “In the 100 butterfly, I was close to hitting my best time even though I wasn’t feeling rested. The goal is to make the finals (of the two-day event).” Ly was flat-out dominant in the 200 IM, winning by 7 seconds. She was also strong in winning the butterfly by 2 seconds. Ly had a steely-eye focus in each race, especially in the IM when she had no one close to her by the start of the third stroke.
Owning the race
“It’s my own race and you kind of have to put blinders on and just stay in your lane,” she said. “No matter what is happening around you, you’re swimming your own race and can’t be affected by anything else.” Ly has learned to use the nervousness she feels before every important race to her advantage. “I think nerves are a part of what goes into racing, and I use that to help me go faster,” she said. “If I’m not nervous, I usually won’t do as well. You channel your nerves and surprise yourself at the end hopefully with a good time.” The Sobrato girls relay teams found its best combination of the season, as Ly, Batey, Foster and
Robert Eliason
nnie Ly continues to show why she’s one of the South Valley area’s most versatile swimmers after winning two races in the Blossom Valley League Santa Teresa Division Championships on April 17 at Sobrato High. Ly captured the 200-yard individual medley and 100 butterfly in preparation for the upcoming Central Coast Section Championships, where she enters with the 14th fastest seed time in the 100 butterfly, at 58.51 seconds In the BVAL division finals, swimmers had to compete over two days, with the first being the trials a day before the finals. “In the trials I think I did pretty good for not being tapered for this meet at all,” she said. “I wore my fast (swim) suit, an older one in the finals and hit near my best times, which is good going into CCS. I feel like I can go faster.” Ly was one of a handful of local swimmers who won individual races or was part of a winning relay team. Other Sobrato winners included KellyAnn Lim (1-meter diving) and Jacob Hatch (100 backstroke). The Sobrato girls 400 free relay team
of Ly, Helena Batey, Sofia Aliamus and Molly Foster took second in 3:52.73, easily hitting the CCS qualifying time. The same four girls teamed placed third in the 200 free relay, hitting a CCS cutoff time of 1:45.19. The Sobrato boys 200 free relay team of Hatch, Stephen Parker, Anthony Anderson and Kyle Nguyen placed third in 1:34.62, setting up a potential first-place finish next year as only Nguyen graduates. Hatch had a second-place showing in the 100 free in 49.74 seconds, while Batey had a second- and third-place finish, respectively, in the 200 free and 100 free. Lim easily won the diving competition with 330.30 points. Live Oak, which competed in the Mount Umunhum Division Championships at Gunderson High, saw Karinne Leong perform well yet again, as she won the 100 back stroke in 1:02.75 and placed second in the 50 free in 27.83 seconds. Teammate Lauren Nishikawa placed second in the 200 free in 2:26.62, and Melanie Klem took second in the 100 free 1:06.30. On the boys side, Colin Edgar closed out his career in fashion with victories in the 100 fly (55.95) and 500 free (5:09.89), while Max Klein won the 200 free in 1:59.62 and took second in the 100 free in 54.54. Rhett Thorson placed second in the 200 IM in 2:23.28, and the boys 200 free relay team of Edgar, Klein, Thorson and
HE’S FAST Sobrato senior Jacob Hatch finished in first place in the 100 backstroke and second in the 100 free in the Santa Teresa Division Finals. Aliamus were swimming together for the first time this season. “Relays have been pretty fun this season, but we’ve been switching it up a lot trying to figure out who is best for the relays,” Ly said. “This is a new group dynamic, and I’m glad it worked out for us.” Entering the division finals, Hatch hadn’t hit a CCS qualifying time in his signature event, the 100 back stroke. That’s because this was just the third time he had done the event this season, as he was put in other races to pile up points for the team in the dual meets. Knowing he needed to deliver, Hatch did just that. “I definitely was nervous for qualifying, but still somewhat
confident I was going to make it to CCS,” he said. “There was that side of me that was preparing for the worst. … I’m happy with the way I swam. I felt like it was a good week for me. I’d like to say I was pumped up (after some of the races), but not to the point where everyone could tell.” Hatch was also excited that the 200 free relay team hit a season best in the event, narrowly missing the CCS cutoff time. “I’m proud of my team because they all pulled through, we were right there and almost made it to CCS,” he said. Hatch plays water polo yearround, and uses swimming to enhance his speed, endurance and make him a stronger water polo player.

OBITUARIES CONNIE BENAVIDEZ MARTIN
OLIVE PATIENCE WALKER
NOVEMBER 18, 1948 – MARCH 26, 2019
May 9, 1924 - March 15, 2019
onnie Benavidez Martin was born on November 19, 1948, in Chama, New Mexico. She quietly departed this life on March 26, 2019 at her home in Morgan Hill in the presence of loving family members and her beloved cat Natasha. She was born to Josephine Valdez Benavidez and Jose Samuel Benavidez of Chama, New Mexico. After graduation from Chama High School in 1966, she held various jobs in Santa Fe, New Mexico and Albuquerque, New Mexico. She moved to Glendale, California in 1970, caring for the children of a good friend, where she met the love of her life, Van A. Martin (worked for IBM and FAA pilot) during which time she was an interpreter through her church. They married and settled in Morgan Hill. Connie was a connoisseur of learning and knowledge and attended Gavilan College and West Valley College, and was a dedicated student of classical guitar, flamenco and ballet, as well as other dance forms. She spoke Italian, French and Spanish, which helped her whenever she traveled to foreign countries with Van, or with her church group. She trained, but did not pursue, a nursing career. Her pride and joy was her love of her feline pets, family and friends. Among her loyal friends, she could always count on Sue and Tom Martines, Amber Martines and Esther Lechuga and her daughters. Tom also worked with Van on many projects at IBM. She was very generous and a kind vibrant soul, full of wit and passion for the things she loved, accompanied always by a sunny smile and a sparkle in her eyes.
atience Walker was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, in 1924 to Raymond Lyle and Olive Omakawaikuolaa Miller. Patience attended Punahou School and the University of Hawaii, where she met and married Alan Carl Walker in 1944. They moved to California in 1955 and settled in Gilroy in 1995. Alan passed away in 2006. Patience is survived by her four children, Michael Walker (Arzelia), Deborah Schwarz (David), Andrew Walker and Christopher Walker (Ruthann). She was the beloved grandmother of seven grandchildren and five great-grandchildren. She will be remembered for her devotion to her family, love of nature, lifelong volunteer work, friendly spirit and her intelligence.
C
She was preceded in death by her parents, Jose Samuel and Josephine Benavidez, her brothers, Ramoncito and Michael Stanley; her sisters, Lorraine Jaramillo, Lucille Branch, Esther Jones, and, of course, her beloved husband, Van Martin. She is survived by six siblings, her brother, Sam F. Benavidez, Jr., Mary Maxie Torrez, Nancy Benavidez, Jessie Fisher, Margarita Pomeroy (Horace Pomeroy), and Lilly Lopez (Joe Lopez), in addition to a host of numerous nieces and nephews, one of whom, Emily Pomeroy Locke, Connie appointed as guardian over her affairs. She had devoted friends, Amber Martines and Esther Lechuga and were also her caretakers. We are grateful to Pastor Fred Hill and his wife Carol from her church (United Church of God, Santa Cruz) who came to be with her during her hospital stay and, later, when she was taken home. We thank the Kaiser Permanente hospice medical nurses who took care of her, as well. Memorial services will be held at a later date. Cremation has been handled by Smart Cremation. Connie loved the green, lush village of her birth, Chama, and the beautiful San Juan Mountain range of the majestic Rocky Mountains. It is the Chama River where her ashes and those of Van’s, will be scattered later this summer. Connie brightened the lives of all who knew her. She will forever be remembered by her loving and generous spirit which will continue to live richly in our memories. She was a spiritual woman who lived her life by the tenets of the bible. Her child-like wonderment and joy toward life, her irrepressible drive for excellence in all she undertook are hallmarks of her happy, fulfilled life. For those who knew Connie, and would like to contribute, please forward any loving sentiments that can be read during her memorial service to (emlocke9@yahoo.com). Connie would appreciate in lieu of flowers, to please make contributions in her name to SPCA, an organization that was dear to her heart.
P
A memorial service will be held at 3 p.m., Saturday, May 11th, at the United Methodist Church of Gilroy.

TY HOLMQUIST May 19, 1945 - March 25, 2019
T
y passed on March 25, 2019 with his family at his side in Murrieta, California, at the age of 73.
Ty had been a long time resident of Hollister moving to Temecula in 2016. Ty was born in Deadwood, South Dakota on May 19, 1945 and named Tyrone Patrick Holmquist. His family soon moved to Southern California where he was raised, the oldest of 5 children. Ty joined the Air Force after graduating from high school in 1963 and was stationed primarily in France and Germany in a communication role. He told stories of traveling around Europe with his backpack, on leave, mingling with the locals and learning their language. When discharged, he returned to California and was hired by AT&T for an underground cable communication center outside of San Luis Obispo. That was the beginning of his AT&T career. Ty spent most of his AT&T years as an Account Executive working in several locations throughout California. Ty retired from AT&T after 35 years. He then worked in Real Estate for a few years before starting Country Rose Gallery and Frame in downtown Hollister masking frames for the local artists. After 10 years, he closed the business and started helping his son’s business, Cool Air Solutions, in Murrieta, California. Ty’s many special interests outside of work included SCCA Rallies and SCCA Pro Rallies. Ty was always the navigator and was famous, or infamous, in the Rally Navigator world. Always ready to help others learning the ropes. He won awards in Rally events that then led to a long relationship with the Great American Race (GAR). The GAR is an antique car rally that went coast to coast every year. Ty was a top performer on this event for 25 years with over 10 of these years with his wife Pam in the driver’s seat in their 32 Ford Open Racer. From the time Ty and Pam moved to Hollister in 1997, he was active in the Hidden Valley Homeowner Association. He was generous with his time and willing to drill in and investigate the best solutions to problems. He served as a board member for over 15 years. Ty was also active for many years in the San Benito County Sheriff ’s Mounted Search and Rescue Group. He was funny, sharp, enjoyed having a good time, and loved music. Most of all he enjoyed helping others. Ty is survived by his 3 children; Lisa Carter, Sherry Holmquist, Justin Holmquist and Justin’s wife Melissa Holmquist. Ty had 5 grandchildren; Tyler Holmquist, Hayley Holmquist, Alex Carter, Luke Carter and Julia Carter. Ty had many nieces and nephews and extended family that have found memories of his crazy rendition of Purple Rain and his famous dance moves. A celebration of his life is planned for May 11th in Hollister and July 20th in Temecula 831524-1158 for additional information.
Mother, Grandmother and Great-Grandmother who will be deeply missed. Mary is survived by daughters Debbie Jones, Janet Walker, Karen Walker and Cheryl George and their families which includes 9 Grandchildren and 6 Great-grandchildren. She is also survived by brother Tony Silva, sisters Rose Zgragen, Helen Barnes, Clare Devencenzi and sister-in-law Irene Silva. Mary was proceeded in death by brother Alfred Silva and parents Antonio and Rose Silva. Her love of children, family, and the Lord was apparent in her daily life and her beliefs.
