he city of San Luis Obispo has laws against sitting on a bench for too long, “lodging” on public property, and sleeping in your car overnight. But a recent appeals court ruling could affect those ordinances. The decision states that as long as there is no other option for sleeping indoors, criminalizing NO HOME homeless people for sleeping outdoors is cruel Sleeping in Mitchell Park and unusual punishment. Either way, the SLO might be the only Police Department has always been between option that some people have in a rock and a hard place when trying to do the San Luis Obispo. best thing for the public and its concerns and the homeless population and its needs.

LO County is officially refuting claims that negligent medical care at its jail led to the heart-attack-related death of 60-year-old inmate Kevin Lee McLaughlin last year. In an Oct. 17 response to a lawsuit filed by McLaughlin’s family, a San Francisco-based law firm representing the county and the SLO County Sheriff’s Office denied allegations that jail staff ignored signs that McLaughlin was suffering a heart attack and failed to get him proper medical attention despite his request to be taken to a hospital. McLaughlin died in the jail on April 13, 2017. According to a death investigation report, he complained to jail medical staff that he was having trouble breathing and was experiencing numbness and pain in his arm and shoulder and said he needed to go to a hospital. Instead, he was given Tylenol and sent back to his bed where he died of a heart attack less than one hour later. McLaughlin’s mother and brother filed an administrative claim with the county in October 2017. The county rejected that claim in November of the same year, and the family filed their lawsuit in May of 2018. The lawsuit accuses the county and Sheriff’s Office of negligence and violating McLaughlin’s constitutional rights. In its response, attorneys representing the county and Sheriff’s Office insisted that McLaughlin was not deprived of his rights or privileges. “The defendants, at all times, acted in full conformity with all applicable federal and state statutes and regulations, and exercised reasonable care in connection with services provided at the facility,” the response, written by
attorney Wendy L. Wilcox of the Skane Wilcox law firm, stated. McLaughlin was the 11th of 13 inmates who’ve died in the jail since 2012. McLaughlin’s death occurred less than three months after the high profile jail death of Andrew Holland, which resulted in the county paying out a $5 million settlement to his family. The deaths also sparked a civil rights investigation by the FBI. An FBI spokesperson said that investigation remains ongoing.

As part of Susan Funk’s campaign for an Atascadero City Council seat, she’s proposed a potential vacancy tax to rid the city of empty lots—but the city said that it’s using a different tack and it’s working. Funk said the vacancy tax is just one of many options to address an issue the city is having with vacant properties that are kept in poor, undeveloped conditions by out-of-town landlords. “Our city is very limited in its revenues, and we don’t have a lot of empty land in which additional new businesses and income can come in and develop,” Funk said. “So we really need to have our spaces working productively for the city.” She said the tax could wedge landlords into selling the land or updating a building. The tax idea is a way to get people to talk about alternatives, which Funk said is more important to her than the tax itself. “When people start talking about what are different ways we could attack this problem, we understand the problem better and develop better solutions,” she said. Funk said she started talking about a vacancy tax when she heard the idea from the city’s community development director, Phil Dunsmore, during a strategic planning meeting in February. Dunsmore told New Times that he and other city staff members were asked to bring a toolbox of options to the meeting that could address blight in the downtown area. One of the

desperation that might not be what the city wants. It’s not necessarily the spirit of Atascadero, which is a business friendly environment.” The city is taking a different approach to try to get those lots filled. Dunsmore said city staff speaks with property owners to try and understand their obstacles—whether it might be a zoning issue, parking, or conditions of the building. “There have been a couple of spaces in the heart of downtown that were vacant and blighted for many years but now most of those have been solved, because we’re getting a beautiful La Plaza project,” he said. “Those vacancies are going away except for one or two others.” —Karen Garcia
Midterm voter registration tops 2016 presidential election
With the 2018 general election a little more than a week away, SLO County Clerk recorder Tommy Gong said voter registration has already exceeded that of the 2016 presidential election. As of Oct. 24, Gong said voter registration in SLO County had topped 170,000 people, surpassing the 168,275 registrations recorded in the 2016 presidential election. “It’s a little mind-boggling,” Gong told New Times. “You almost never see registration in a gubernatorial election exceed a presidential one. It’s tremendous.” Gong credited the high numbers to the increasing NEWS continued page 6

use of online voter registration and energetic voter registration efforts in the county. That included Cal Poly’s participation in The Ballot Bowl, a statewide initiative that challenged California universities and community colleges to compete in a “friendly competition” to see which campus could register the most voters. According to data from the California Secretary of State’s Office, Cal Poly SLO surpassed all of the state’s other college campuses, registering 2,754 voters as part of the competition. Both parties are pushing to energize voters. Democrats are framing the midterms as a referendum on President Donald Trump. Republicans are attempting to leverage recent political flashpoints such as the appointment of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh to help them maintain their majority in the House and Senate. “There does seem like there’s an elevated interest in this election,” Gong said. “Certainly, it’s a more elevated interest compared to past gubernatorial elections.” As of Oct. 24, Gong said his office had received more than 21,000 vote-bymail ballots. He predicted that turnout for the election would be between 73 and 75 percent. That number is higher than the 58 percent turnout in the 2014 gubernatorial election, but lower than the county’s 83 percent turnout in the 2016 presidential election. Gong said that his office was finalizing a report on the county’s voter registration numbers, which would be released after New Times went to press. —Chris McGuinness
Morro Bay approves $67 million sewer contract—while a legal challenge looms
The Morro Bay City Council took a big step forward on its new wastewater reclamation facility (WRF) on Oct. 23, voting unanimously to award a $67.2 million design and construction contract to Filanc/ Black & Veatch, a San Diego-area firm. “Signing a contract with the designbuilder for the on-site WRF facilities is a key milestone,” an Oct. 23 city staff report stated. But as the city moves ahead with what’s been a prolonged, contentious project, citizens that same evening threatened litigation to challenge the sewer/water rate increases that will fund the $128 million facility. Residents opposing the WRF allege that the city declined to count approximately 1,000 votes in protest of the Sept. 11 rate hikes ($41 per single-family household) under Proposition 218. In response, the city claimed that those votes were either undated or marked with a date that was prior to its issuing of the proposed new rates, which disqualifies them. If more than half of affected property owners protested the rate increases, they could not have been approved. Morro Bay resident Aaron Ochs, founder of the group Save Morro Bay that formed to oppose the WRF, told the council during public comment that the group would “do whatever is necessary legally to get those votes counted and validated.” “We don’t want to go to court, but if that’s what it takes, that’s what I’m willing to do for the community,” Ochs said during public comment. “I believe these voices that were thrown out should be heard. ... Nationwide, voter suppression
VIEWER DISCRETION is happening. It’s happening in Georgia, Tennessee, and Kansas—but Morro Bay? It’s happening right now in Morro Bay.” Ochs said Save Morro Bay has hired an attorney to review the protest ballots. Another anti-WRF group, Citizens for Affordable Living, posted on its Facebook page on Oct. 22 that it was, “accepting donations pertaining to 2018 Proposition 218. ... Make a note [on the donation] legal fees.” That group did not return requests for comment from New Times. Laura Murray, a Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association attorney, previously sent letters to the city warning that the protest vote was disputed and asking it to preserve records. She confirmed to New Times that “local concerned citizens” had sought independent counsel for “their legal challenge.” The threat of litigation isn’t stopping Morro Bay from proceeding with the WRF project. City Manager Scott Collins told New Times that the city believes it’s on solid legal ground and he added that even if the disputed protests are all counted, due to “errors or duplications” the number wouldn’t likely surpass a majority threshold. “Everybody’s looked at this from a risk assessment perspective and are confident that if there was a legal challenge, it would fail,” Collins said. —Peter Johnson
Local groups condemn Trump administration’s gender memo
Local LGBTQ advocates are raising alarm over a recently leaked memo that revealed the Trump administration is considering narrowly defining gender, a move they say would erode protections and civil rights for the transgender community. Area groups including Tranz Central Coast, the Gay and Lesbian Alliance of the Central Coast (GALA), The Queer Crowd SLO and others joined national outcry over the leaked memo, which said that the Department of Health and Human Services may move to establish a narrow legal definition of gender that would be binary, immutable, and based on genitalia at birth. The memo, obtained by the New York Times, indicated that the definition would be applied to Title IX, civil rights laws that govern gender discrimination in educational programs that receive federal funding. Doug Huemann, chair of Tranz Central Coast, said the policy could have wide ranging and negative impacts if implemented and characterized it as an attempt by the administration to treat transgender individuals “as if they don’t exist.” “This is trying to negate us and treat us like we are subhuman,” Huemann said. “Even if you aren’t transgender, this is offensive. These are American citizens, and they should be supported just like everybody else.” The Queer Crowd, a SLO-based LGBTQ advocacy group, also condemned the memo, stating that the proposal placed already marginalized groups at risk. “For example, when members of our community are unable to receive identification that correctly reflects their gender it makes it more difficult for them to find work, housing, and medical care,” a statement from The Queer Crowd said. “The proposed change would ignore the reality of life for transgender individuals.” In an Oct. 22 statement, GALA said the proposed rule would set a “dangerous precedent,” but also noted that it would not change decisions made by dozens of federal

courts over the last 20 years that affirmed the identities and rights of transgender people. Huemann said that California law may offer some additional protections for transgender individuals as well. Still, Huemann said he worried for transgender people living in states that don’t have the same protections as California. “I know local people who have come out to their families but are afraid to do so in public,” he said. “There’s definitely a fear.” —Chris McGuinness
Teacher sues Lucia Mar for wrongful treatment
A teacher in the Lucia Mar Unified School District claims that the district retaliated against him for speaking out about potential student discrimination. An Oct. 9 lawsuit filed against the district, the city of Arroyo Grande, Ranyee Daley, Charles Fiorentino, Dan Neff, and Michael Smiley alleges that teacher and wrestling coach James Gross was wrongfully demoted from his position and repeatedly mistreated after he discovered that the district was charging students money to participate in schoolsponsored programs. At the beginning of the 2008-09 academic school year, Gross made a discrimination complaint to the district regarding the school’s pay-to-play policy where student athletes are charged to participate in school-sponsored programs, according to the lawsuit. Gross believed that the policy was discriminatory against low-income students who could not afford the fee. After he made the complaint, Gross claims he and 125 other teachers received a layoff notice in March 2009. Gross testified at a layoff hearing on April 28, 2009, where he said the district didn’t notify him properly about his employment classification and couldn’t legally lay him off. Two days later, the lawsuit states, Gross received his first disciplinary action for the alleged misuse of the district’s email system by using it to solicit funds for the wrestling program he coached. Gross’s suit also alleges that the district then tried to push Gross out of his role as the boys’ wrestling head coach and that in December 2013, district Superintendent Raynee Daley placed him on administrative leave to investigate a parent complaint. On Feb. 27, 2014, Gross received a notice of unprofessional conduct and unsatisfactorily performance, according to the lawsuit. Gross claims that all of it was done in retaliation, so he’s suing the district for personal injury, damages, and civil penalties.
by Jayson Mellom
“I strongly believe that both students and employees should be allowed to work, learn, and live in an environment free from retaliation and free from fear of retaliation, especially for engaging in protected activities,” Gross told New Times. “This is an issue of the culture of an organization, and the culture of an organization starts with its management.” District officials did not respond to a New Times request for comment before press time. —Karen Garcia
Paso Robles proposes an upgrade for Railroad Street Paso Robles unveiled the preliminary concept designs to improve Railroad Street at an open house session on Oct. 24. “It’s a street but kind of functions more as an alley and a lot of Pine Street businesses back up to that street,” City Community Development Director Warren Frace said. Aside from a few businesses there isn’t much foot traffic on the road, he said. The idea to revitalize Railroad Street came from a task force the city created to look into improvements that could be made in the city’s downtown area. The subgroup assigned to Railroad decided that more studies should be conducted, so the city hired the Wallace Group to examine parking, dealing with trash and garbage, and implementing economical design elements. The concept shown on Oct. 24 runs the length of Railroad between 12th and 10th streets. The design includes a steel truss gateway sign, murals, outdoor public art displays, crosswalk steel rail bands and pavers, bike racks, night lighting, and vegetation. “It would be nice because there are a lot of blank walls and things like that, so there’s ideas for murals, landscaping, and public art and maybe some railroad theme elements that could be added,” he said. The open house, Frace said, is really just a session to allow the public, property owners, and business owners to come in and give staff feedback. “I’m looking for some sort of direction. You know, they either love the plan and that would be good, or if they don’t like the plan, that’s good, too, because we can go off in a different direction,” he said. ∆ —Karen Garcia

efense attorney Alan Karow walked out of court in Paso Robles on Sept. 17 feeling victorious. A San Luis Obispo County Superior Court judge had just ruled in favor of two of his clients, both Hmong-American farmers growing cannabis in the California Valley. On Aug. 8, San Luis Obispo County had received authorization from a cannabis hearing officer to abate the growers’ plants and impose fines. Karow then filed lawsuits challenging that. Judge Linda Hurst’s decision that morning placed a temporary stay on the abatement orders so she could hear further arguments. The stay could hold just long enough for his clients to harvest their crop, Karow thought. “Those two are hopeful things will work out,” he said after the ruling. Then he checked his cellphone. While Karow was in court, county officials went and abated the cannabis of another Cal Valley client, whom Karow was about to file the same legal action on behalf of that day. It looked to him as if the county was pre-empting the court process, cutting down the plants while they still had the opportunity. Such is life in the topsy-turvy Cal Valley right now, where cannabis grows proliferated a few years ago amid cheap land and a lack of local regulations and where SLO County is currently attempting to enforce a blanket ban against them that was passed late last year. As autumn harvest season reaches its peak, some growers are escaping with a crop to sell while others have fallen to an enforcement system that’s led to dozens of abatements and nearly $1 million in fines levied. Since May, the county has held regular cannabis enforcement hearings, where it tries to obtain abatement orders based on public nuisance determinations. In the quasi-judicial process established this year, an outside officer hired by the county oversees the proceeding and makes a ruling based on the evidence presented. As of press time, the county had held 14 hearings where all 59 rulings tipped in its favor, and $849,700 in cumulative fines were issued to growers, according to a New Times analysis of county data. Karow represents the Cal Valley Growers Cultural Association, a community of about 60 Hmong-American medical cannabis farmers who, Karow says, have essentially invested their livelihoods into their grows. Many are first generation Americans who don’t speak English. According to Karow’s lawsuits, two-thirds of all the growers brought to the county’s cannabis hearings are of Southeast Asian descent. He said that violates the equal protection
clause of the Constitution. “They came here in search of a better life,” Karow said. “They invested everything. Most of them will lose all the money they have.” Karow’s core argument is that the afor the growers to comply with regulations that have changed over time. In September 2016, SLO County supervisors adopted an urgency cannabis ordinance in which Cal Valley growers could cultivate as long as they registered with the county. Then in November 2017, supervisors adopted a new ordinance that completely prohibited growing in Cal Valley. Karow argues that not only did the county make a 180-degree turn in the policy, officials had conducted site visits under the first ordinance where farmers were required to invest in fencing and other materials on their properties to continue. “By pulling the rug out from under them, they basically let a lot of these people invest every penny they have, only to take that investment from them and say you can’t do anything with it,” Karow said. “But worse than that, to fine them thousands and thousands of dollars for acting in a way in which they were approved to do.” Karow said he’s earned three courtissued stays on abatement orders in those cases, which have allowed those growers to harvest. He’s not the only one challenging the county in court. SLO resident Will Powers Jr. has filed a lawsuit aiming to reverse a cannabis officer ruling against his son’s alleged Cal Valley grow, as well as overturn the county’s cannabis ordinance. Powers said he’s seeking a jury trial to rule on the constitutionality of the ordinance. “The key to all of this is due process of the law,” Powers told New Times. “When you get an abatement notice, it says you’re in violation [of county code]. You look at that ordinance and it’s 62 pages and somehow you’re supposed to know what you’re in violation of. That’s not due process.” One longtime resident of Cal Valley, who asked to remain anonymous for safety reasons, argued that the time is long overdue for commercial cannabis to leave the valley, a remote and environmentally sensitive area home to several endangered species and limited water resources. “The county has made it very clear that the urgency ordinance was only temporary and would be in effect only until the permanent ordinance was adopted,” the resident said, echoing arguments made by county counsel. “No one was taken advantage of, misled, or deceived by the county.” ∆ Assistant Editor Peter Johnson can be reached at pjohnson@newtimesslo.com.

Is homelessness a crime?
I
t’s late on a Friday night, and things have been fairly quiet for San Luis Obispo Police Department Sgt. Trevor Shalhoob. Cal Poly’s Week of Welcome is hitting its final stretch, and while the bars are swamped with college students, the dark, quiet section of neighborhood he’s patrolling is calm and nearly silent. His radio crackles to life. Someone calls to report a woman near the downtown area screaming loudly in public. No threats or physical violence. She’s just screaming at the top of her lungs. He can hear her in the background of the transmission. Shalhoob says that he and many of the department’s officers know her. She’s a transient with a mental illness. When she is on her medication, he said, she is reasonable and willing to speak with officers. But when she isn’t, she sometimes screams at people or even objects. It usually frightens passersby and they end up calling the police. Still, her many interactions with the SLO officers don’t end with her being arrested because she isn’t hurting anyone or even breaking any laws. “People need to understand,” Shalhoob says, “it’s not a crime to be mentally ill.” The relationship between the homeless and law enforcement has long been fraught. Officers in departments like SLO’s must address the wider public’s concerns, both real and perceived, about the public health and safety issues raised by a large homeless population, while respecting the human and constitutional rights of individuals who are living on the streets. The tension between those two goals could be further strained after a federal appellate court ruling that may impact the city’s laws about sleeping or camping in public spaces. While some believe that the SLO Police Department is making headway in addressing the needs of the population by instituting programs and policies to connect them with services and support to keep them out of jail, others believe that some of the city’s ordinances still punish the poor and un-housed for simply being homeless. The tug of war between the two viewpoints isn’t lost on SLO Police Chief
SLOPD says it’s made progress in how it deals with the city’s homeless, but some worry the population is still being criminalized BY CHRIS MCGUINNESS Deanna Cantrell. “I get emails constantly from both sides of this argument,” Cantrell told residents at a June 27 forum on homeless issues. “That being homeless isn’t criminal and, ‘You guys are terrible and you’re making everything a crime.’ Then I get it from the other side. It’s, ‘Why aren’t you doing something?’”
The letter of the law
In cities like SLO, the police are usually on the front lines when it comes to interacting with the homeless population. At the forum, Cantrell said that her department regularly fields calls from the public about homeless individuals, even when they aren’t doing anything that might be considered a crime. “It’s not illegal to be dirty. It’s not illegal to have mental illness. It’s not illegal to talk to yourself. It’s not illegal to talk to inanimate objects. It’s not illegal for groups of homeless people to hang out with each other,” she said. “But the police department gets called for all those things.” Cantrell outlined the department’s efforts to assist the homeless population. That includes the use of its Community Action Team (CAT), a pair of officers who regularly work with the city’s homeless, focusing on outreach and helping direct them to services that might help them. The department is also in the process of hiring a mental health professional who will be embedded with the CAT officers as part of a one-year pilot program. “Our goal is really to get them into services first,” Cantrell said. “Secondary to that is enforcement.” Enforcement, of course, is still always on the table. When it comes to the city’s chronically homeless population, the most common enforcement occurs from
minor crimes such as public intoxication, littering, and illegal lodging, as well as citations for violations of the city’s municipal code for aggressive panhandling, public smoking and urination, and public consumption of alcohol or possession of open containers of alcohol. Violating some of those ordinances can end with a misdemeanor arrest in some circumstances, but more often, they result in a citation—what essentially amounts to a ticket and fine. At the forum, Cantrell indicated that such citations were only so effective in addressing residents’ worries about quality of life and public safety concerns raised in connection with SLO’s homeless. The homeless who receive such citations are often repeat offenders. The department’s top 10 offenders in 2017 where charged with crimes more than 470 times. The No. 1 offender was cited with alcohol violations 45 times in one year. “The citations, I’ve got to be honest, probably don’t carry much weight ... the problem is it’s not a very big stick. It’s a toothpick,” she said. Cantrell said that many homeless who are cited ignore the tickets, don’t pay fines, and fail to show up in court. Those add up until the court issues a warrant for failure to appear, which can result in an arrest and a short jail sentence. It’s not the optimal outcome, but Cantrell said that time in jail can also be a chance for homeless individuals suffering from drug or alcohol addiction to get sober, get help for mental illness if they need it, and get connected with support services they may have missed or refused while on the street. “Jail works sometimes,” Cantrell told residents at the forum. “I know you might disagree, but it really does. There’s a purpose for it.” PHOTO BY JAYSON MELLOM
SIGN OF THE TIMES SLO’s homeless population is a fixture of the city. Police say they try to reach out to offer help and services before citing and arrest homeless individuals. Still others worry that some of the city’s laws penalize people because they are homeless.

Criminalization concerns
While Cantrell and the department stress that their approach is to get chronically homeless individuals in SLO help before resorting to citation or arrest, Kelsey Zazanis was skeptical. In August, Zazanis said she was walking near Madonna Plaza when she saw two female police officers accost a homeless man at a bus shelter. The man had a shopping cart filled with trash bags. Zazanis said she watched the two officers force the man to take the bags out of his cart before “forcefully shoving it away.” She decided to intervene. “I asked them, ‘Why are you harassing this man?’” she said. “They said he was breaking the law. I asked them what law he was breaking, but they couldn’t answer me.” Zazanis is one of several co-founders of the local chapter of Food Not Bombs, a group that feeds homeless individuals in Mitchell Park on Sundays. She, similar to the group’s other members, is concerned that police use the city’s laws and ordinances to penalize or harass individuals for being homeless. SLO isn’t the only city grappling with those concerns. A 2015 study by UC Berkley Law School’s Public Advocacy Clinic found that 58 cities in California had enacted as many as 500 laws that criminalized activities commonly associated with homeless individuals. Those included laws governing standing, sitting, and resting in public places; sleeping, camping, and lodging in public areas and vehicles; begging and panhandling; and food sharing. According to the same report, SLO has six ordinances on the books that could be used to penalize individuals for being homeless. At least one of those ordinances had to be amended after it landed the city and police department in court six years ago. In 2012, local attorneys Saro Rizzo and Stew Jenkins sued the city over a zoning ordinance it used to prohibit sleeping in vehicles on city streets. Rizzo told New Times that they brought the lawsuit against the city after reports from their clients that the SLOPD, then under the leadership of Cantrell’s predecessor, Chief Steven Gesell, ramped up enforcement of the ordinance, resulting in multiple homeless individuals receiving citations and having to pay fines. “We heard that the police were doing midnight raids, banging on the windows of vehicles with their batons and telling people to get out of town,” Rizzo said. “I said, ‘That’s wrong.’ We questioned the constitutionality of the application of the law and asked the court to review it.” In July of that year, a SLO County Superior Court judge sided with Rizzo and Jenkins. Stating that—among other reasons—the ordinance and the enforcement actions by the department singled out poor and homeless people for harsh treatment, the judge ordered the police department to immediately cease issuing the citations. The lawsuit ended with a settlement agreement. The city agreed to revise the overnight camping ordinance, limiting prohibited camping hours to between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. and enforcing it as a parking citation. The city also agreed to put up signage on city streets and dismiss any tickets issued under the old ordinance that year. Rizzo said he was happy with the lawsuit’s resolution and felt that the police department, now under Cantrell’s leadership, was doing a better job of

trying to address issues with the city’s homeless population. “I think the attitude of the current chief and the city is much better,” he said. “There’s a much better understanding as to what their rights are.” Not everyone is satisfied with the results of the settlement. After the 2018 election, the recently formed SLO chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America said they will lobby the city to completely repeal the current overnight camping ordinance. “Really, it’s hard to see how this law is applied and not conclude that it targets a vulnerable population,” said Grant Helete, a member of the organization’s homeless issues working group. “This is not the way to address the root issue.”
Martin v. City of Boise
In September, the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that prosecuting homeless individuals for sleeping outside on public property when adequate alternative shelter isn’t available violated the U.S. Constitution’s prohibition of cruel and unusual punishment. The decision on the case, Martin v. City of Boise, was the result of a lawsuit brought against the city of Boise, Idaho, for its ordinances that ban sleeping on public property. The decision applies to all states in the 9th Circuit’s jurisdiction, which includes the state of California. “As long as there is no option of sleeping indoors, the government cannot criminalize indigent, homeless people for sleeping outdoors, on public property, on the false premise they had a choice in the matter,” the court wrote in its majority decision. “As long as the homeless plaintiffs do not have a single place where they can lawfully be, … the challenged ordinances effectively punish them for something for which they may not be convicted of under the Eighth Amendment.” Eric Tars, a senior attorney for National Law Center on Homelessness and Poverty who served as co-counsel on the Martin v. Boise case, said cities impacted by the court’s decision should look at it as an opportunity to address the root causes of homelessness and put in place the best practices to combat it.
“Too often, the knee-jerk response is to try and criminalize them and get them off the street quickly,” Tars said. “It’s a terrible policy, because you are trying to use the criminal justice system to address a social failing.” In an email response to New Times, SLO Police Chief Cantrell said she’d be meeting with City Attorney Christine Dietrick at the end of October to discuss the court’s ruling and any impacts it may or may not have. Depending on how the language of the ruling is interpreted, some of the city’s ordinances might not necessarily apply to the court’s decision, including the current overnight car camping ordinance, which Dietrick said was classified as a simple parking ticket and not a criminal violation. “It’s a parking violation, and that’s an important distinction,” she said. “This case is about criminalizing this type of activity. Under our ordinance this is not a criminal activity.” Other ordinances that might be impacted by the ruling include SLO’s bench ordinance; illegal lodging ordinance; and ordinances against blocking streets, sidewalks, and alleys. Dietrick noted that, unlike the Boise laws challenged in the case, some of SLO’s ordinances only ban such activities for certain periods of time. The overnight camping ban, for example, only applies between the hours of 10 p.m. and 6 a.m., and the city bench ordinance allows them to be used by one person for up to one hour, or up to three hours in a 24-hour period. “There are limitations. Our parks, for instance, are closed for certain hours,” Dietrick said. “Most of the ordinances on the city’s books are focused in terms of the time of the activity.” Tars was skeptical of both arguments. He said that the court’s ruling didn’t distinguish between criminal violations and fine-based citations. He also noted that banning the activity for certain hours still penalized poor and homeless if there was nowhere else they could sleep during those hours. “I’d say it would still be unconstitutional,” Tars said. Other SLO County municipalities are
Like most of the factors surrounding the issue of homelessness, the relationship between individuals living on the streets and the police officers tasked with protecting those same streets is complicated. Local laws, ordinances, and concerns for public health and safety collide with legal battles, court decisions, socioeconomic realities, and individual rights in a complicated web that affects the interactions between the two groups on a daily basis. At the June forum, Cantrell acknowledged that the issue was complex, but said she is remaining committed to respecting homeless people’s rights and to trying to get them help if they wanted it. “Sometimes that takes two or three or four or five tries,” she said. “And we’re not going to give up, none of us are, but it does really require that people meet us halfway.” Dennis Powell, who like Zazanis is one of the co-founders of Food Not Bombs SLO, has seen the interaction between the police and SLO’s homeless firsthand. Powell describes himself as homeless by choice, and, while he acknowledged that the city and police department may have made some gains on how they treated homeless people, he cautioned against using the signs of progress as a reason to look away from the problems that remain. He urged the public to be vigilant. “Even one instance of injustice or unfairness blows the whole thing,” Powell said. “If you see something happening, bear witness to the situation and make sure nothing cruel or unfair is happening.” ∆
questioning whether their ordinances will pass muster in the wake of the court’s ruling, particularly in South SLO County, which has no permanent homeless shelter. Grover Beach City Manager Matthew Bronson told New Times that the city was aware of the court decision and would be reviewing its impact. Staff Writer Chris McGuinness can be “We believe it will place limitations on reached at cmcguinness@newtimesslo.com, how we enforce our camping ordinance in and on Twitter as @CWMcGuinness. the city,” Bronson said. At a Sept. 25 City PHOTO BY JAYSON MELLOM Council meeting, Arroyo Grande Police Chief Beau Pryor also raised concerns, worrying that the ruling would lead to more homeless encampments in his city. “I would anticipate that the face of our community is going to change slightly,” he said. “When we can’t enforce our camping ordinances, the homeless folks that don’t have access to shelter beds could be allowed to set up in our public parks and properties and stay overnight.” As SLO, Grover Beach, Arroyo Grande, and other California cities grapple with how to respond to the 9th Circuit’s ruling, Tars warned against trying to find ways around the decision, stating that cities should see it not as a limitation, but a tool to help communities have a dialogue about how to truly address homelessness. “Unfortunately, communities have shown a lot of creativity in the ways they LOCAL LAWS SLO city does not have an ordinance that bans try to criminalize feeding the homeless in public places, but other laws against overnight vehicle camping, sitting on public benches for too homelessness,” he said. long, and panhandling in public often impact the city’s homeless “Rather than putting so population. much energy into trying

Curbing rent The battle over a ballot measure that could bring rent control to SLO County cities begins to take shape
W
hether they are university students looking for a place to live while pursuing their studies, or working adult residents who just can’t afford to break into the high-priced housing market, living in rental housing is a daily reality for more than 38,000 households in SLO County. This election, those residents and others will get a chance to go to the polls and decide whether they’d like to lobby their respective cities and county to enact rent control laws. The statewide ballot measure, known as Proposition 10, could make that a reality. Supporters believe that the measure would give the state’s cities the chance to expand rent control and offer relief to Californians struggling with the high cost of living, while opponents claim opening the door to rent control will make the state’s housing crisis even worse. If it passes, Proposition 10 will not automatically enact rent control in California cities. Instead, the measure would repeal the Costa Hawkins Act, a 1995 law that put limitations on when and how cities could pass rent control ordinances. Under Costa Hawkins, cities
are not allowed to apply rent control to any units built after 1995, and bans enacting rent control on single-family homes and condominiums. The act also allows landlords to raise rents to a fair market value when a tenant moves out of a rent-controlled unit. If Costa Hawkins were repealed, California cities would have much more flexibility to pass and expand rent control laws. Giving that control back to local municipalities is the reason why Abe Lincoln, a candidate for SLO City Council, says he supports Proposition 10. “I think people prefer to let their communities and cities have more input,” he said. “Rent gouging, people having to move out of their homes because they can’t afford it, these are all concerns from my perspective. I prefer to have as many tools as possible, and I think rent control is one of those.” Yes on 10, the statewide organization supporting the measure, believes that allowing local jurisdictions to pass rent control ordinances is critical to helping Californians struggling to keep up with rent increases, which it says are double that of the national average.
“Skyrocketing rents are forcing families out of their homes and out of the state— creating labor shortages that hurt local businesses,” the Yes on 10 website states. Locally, both the SLO County Democratic Party and the SLO Progressives have endorsed the measure and urged voters to pass it. But not everyone is SLO County shares that view of the ballot measure. That includes SLO County Assessor Tom Bordonaro, who joined more than 43 other California county and city officials urging voters to vote against Proposition 10. Speaking with New Times, Bordonaro said he opposed the measure because he believed that rent control laws would actually make housing more expensive and undermine local and state efforts to tackle California’s housing crisis. “Landlords will have to shift the cost of rent-controlled housing to housing in places that don’t have rent control,” he said. “I understand that rent prices are going through the roof, but I just don’t believe that this is a solution at all.” John Cribb, a local realtor who’s worked in SLO for 31 years, made a similar argument against the measure. Setting price controls on rent, he said, would scare off developers and suppress the construction of new rental housing at a time when the county is already facing a shortage. He also said it would hurt local landlords and property management companies, who would not be able to get a reasonable return on their investment should their city enact rent control. “Regulating and having price control
News
isn’t going to solve the problem,” he said. “[Proposition10] opens the door for that to happen. Supporters of the measure claim such arguments are being used by powerful and moneyed special interest groups trying to scare voters into shooting the ballot measure down. Of the more than $126 million raised in connection with the ballot measure, roughly 83 percent of that money, more than $105 million, has come from individuals or groups opposing the measure. A recent USC Dornsife/ Los Angeles Times poll found that just 41 percent of the likely voters surveyed favored Proposition 10, with 38 percent opposed and 21 percent of surveyed voters remaining undecided. Despite the large amount of money pouring into efforts to defeat Proposition 10, supporters remain hopeful that its success will allow them to take the issue of rent control to their local leaders. Lincoln said that if the measure passes and he wins a seat on the council, rent control would be something “to take a hard look at.” “I don’t believe that rent control is the answer to solving the entire housing crisis, but it is a tool that can help,” Lincoln said. “Anything we can do to prevent people from being displaced and keep people in their homes is something we need to do.” ∆ Staff Writer Chris McGuinness can be reached at cmcguinness@newtimesslo.com.

Creating a hub A lexandra Wallace isn’t your average 26-year-old. She’s a professional photographer who’s been in the field since she was 19 years old and she recently created a magazine. Coyote + Oak is her newest venture. It showcases creative individuals throughout California. The magazine that started about 2 1/2 years ago has garnered enough local attention that Cal Poly students are emailing her to inquire about an internship. “I have to email them back and tell them that I do this in my pajamas on the couch. I wish I could, but this is not what you think it is,” Wallace said with a laugh. “I’m watching YouTube videos on broken down Disneyland rides while I do this, I’m sorry.” The name Coyote + Oak came from a Wikipedia search of California. The words “coyote” and “oak trees” just stood out the most and she matched them up to create the name behind magazine. Wallace has a knack for that—matching things together. As editor of the publication, she matches writers and photographers together to work on her stories. That’s what Coyote + Oak is about for Wallace, an outlet for people to utilize their skills in storytelling and showcase their stuff. She realized that there are
specific outlets for certain niches, like wedding photography, but not always for other creative people. If you’re a wedding photographer, she said, there are a lot of opportunities to get published, or maybe they have an agent or a promoter help to get their work out. “For people that are usually doing something cool in their garage or doing something that isn’t their full-time job, sometimes they don’t have the means to get it out there,” she said. In providing this outlet, Wallace said that she wants her magazine to have a different aspect of storytelling; she wants her readers to feel like they’re there with the source. “I really wanted the voice of the magazine to have a similar tone to a Rolling Stone interview where you’re following the subject around and you know what they’re wearing or you pet their dog,” she said. A story that has really stood out for Wallace was when a writer spent time with a band. “He was just staying with them in the desert out in the middle of nowhere for a few days and just going to shows with them and practices. It was everything I would have wanted in a story,” she said. Getting to actually take a look into someone’s life is what she aims for in the

“I love just getting to see what a person is like in real life,” she added. While there are many positives to being your own boss, creating your own publication, and the satisfaction of linking people together, it doesn’t always come out as planned. Currently Wallace is working on the fall and winter issues of the paper, and it’s a little behind schedule. “I’m a real person and these are real people. These are people with different lives, and they’re just making it work,” she said. For more information about the publication or where to get your hands on a copy, visit coyoteandoak.com.

t’s 2:46 a.m. and I can’t sleep. I have a desperate need to write all of this down. It’s Friday, Oct. 19. To the old couple that blocked me on the sidewalk on Marsh Street in SLO the week prior to the 2016 elections and tried to make me feel unwelcome, you don’t represent the SLO community. Thank you for confirming that day what I had been feeling for months, that racists were feeling emboldened ever since Trump became mainstream and that I had to be more vigilant than ever. To the lady who assumed my friend was using government aid because of the color of her skin and shamed her for having kids and being pregnant again, to you, I will proudly tell you that my friend graduated from college that same month while still working at her 9-to-5 job and taking care of two kids. My friend represents the Latino community. To the guy who thought it was a good idea to have the Confederate flag attached to your car during the Atascadero Cruisin’ Nite in August this year, you don’t represent the people from North County. You turned a family event into an opportunity to show your ignorance and racism. To the people who think that the Confederate flag is just a show of heritage, you should question that heritage and check its racist roots. There were black families watching
HODIN
the show that night, and although I don’t know how they felt that day, my heart still ached. Did the organizers even care? No. This car did at least two rounds while I was there, and I didn’t see anyone stopping the driver. To the old white guy who screamed at me, “You want to take everything away from us!” while I was canvassing at his neighbor’s house the other day on Yerba Avenue in Atascadero, who is the “you” in your sentence? Me, a canvasser for Measure G? Me, a 5-foot-tall brown girl? You brown people? You women? Who is “you”? Regardless of who you thought I was, based on nothing else but my looks, because I had no chance to respond you, no one is taking anything away from you. You still hold the privilege you were born with. Old white guy, I want you to know that absolutely no one else was rude to me while I was canvassing in your neighborhood. I met amazing people, actually, people who I would love to call my neighbors or friends. I met your 98-year-old neighbor from down the street who has lived by herself ever since her husband died six years ago. She told me how she ended up in Atascadero and how she gets by even though she’s 94 percent blind. She was the sweetest. I also met John, your neighbor from two blocks down, who told me that he
had more hope now that he saw someone canvassing at my age. I also met a lovely man who yelled from his backyard: “Yes, we are all voting for Measure G in here. Thank you so much for canvassing. Our entire family supports the measure!” There was also a guy who opened the door and with a smile on his face, accepted the info I was sharing, and said he’d rather keep his voting decision private but appreciated me bringing information to his door. I’m pretty sure that guy is not voting in favor, but he was a polite and nice human being. You, old white guy from Yerba Avenue, you are the exception. An unfortunate, unneighborly exception. Lastly, I would like you all to know that I am by no means defeated by these experiences, nor are my relatives or friends. You are making us tougher, better, wiser. You are showing us that there are two sides of this community, and from my experience in seeing this contrast, I can tell you that the bright/positive/kind side is way bigger, stronger, and luckily getting louder than the negative/racist/unwelcoming side. The majority of the community of San Luis Obispo County understands that we can’t be distracted by bigots like you; we understand that unity, love, respect, and the defense of basic human rights is the only way to go. To that part of the community I ask you: Stay loud. Stay vigilant. Vote. ∆ New Times has a policy of not printing anonymous opinion pieces but made an exception for this one.

Letters The Shredder is a coward
In France, they call them “crows”— people who anonymously trash others by spreading rumors and distorting facts. At New Times, they call it “Shredder.” It does not matter what you call them, their aim is to discredit people. But we are being humorous, said the young man at New Times, you are not supposed to take the Shredder seriously. Really? When you deform other people’s intentions to make them appear mean spirited, as you did with me, it’s supposed to be funny? And when you pretend that a joke was a bona fide statement, it’s supposed to make me laugh? As far as I know, humor does not seek to harm others, only to make people laugh, and what the Shredder is doing is not humor because it seeks to disparage others, especially those who disagree with the Shredder. Worst of all, it is anonymous therefore cowardly, and people who anonymously trash others go much further in their trashing than if they had to face their adversaries. If you have something nasty to say, have the courage to sign it. If you choose to remain anonymous, have at least the decency to be honest in your comments. Odile Ayral San Luis Obispo

COMMENTARY from page 15
I received a robo call that surprised me in its fear-tactic use of the phrase, “for the safety of our city,” I should vote for X, Y, and Z. I know who I’m voting for, and it isn’t someone who would resort to frightening citizens into voting for one candidate over another. Mayor Jim Hill has presented thoughtful position papers on the subject of the FCFA, recycled water, and development— all important issues to our city. These thorough points of view are available on the votersedge.org website for all to see. I encourage my neighbors to read the material from all the candidates running in our city and note the refreshing straighttalk from our current mayor. FCFA was supposed to save our community money, but today its budget has ballooned beyond expectations. It now costs Arroyo Grande nearly $1 million a year over and above the original estimates and is costing considerably more than the failed 2014 measure to collect $1.1 million in property taxes to maintain FCFA services. Mayor Hill has my vote of confidence as the city faces these challenges. Linda Drummy Arroyo Grande
Don’t repeal SB 1
Proposition 6 aims to repeal landmark Senate Bill 1, a 2017 law that allows the first inflation-adjusted increase to the gas tax since 1994 (the added amount averages $0.32 per day/driver according to the state Department of Finance). Since SB 1’s passage we’ve seen our

roads markedly improved, as we whittle down years of deferred maintenance. At least the gas tax is direct: The more miles you drive, the more you pay. With SB 1, all drivers are charged because in 2020 it adds a registration fee equivalent to the gas tax for new electric vehicles. And last June’s vote for Proposition 69 amended the state Constitution to ensure SB 1 gas taxes can never again be transferred to the general fund. (And SB 1 requires past transfers to be fully repaid by 2020.) SB 1’s transparent state-local revenue split is a plus for small counties like SLO. Proposition 6 would send us backward without sufficient revenue for road repair. It also would require statewide votes for gas taxes and vehicle license fees thereby taking away legislative control to accelerate the transition to sustainable transportation. We need to protect California’s

Tiny houses on wheels: SLO’s climate destruction?
Climate change is the result of decisions and actions we make on how much of and how we use the world’s natural resources. The San Luis Obispo’s proposed tiny house on wheels ordinance, created and passed at the direction of the City Council on Oct. 10, blows a hole in San Luis Obispo’s Climate Action Plan and stated goal of creating a “net zero” energy future. The planning staff and commission did not address this goal, leaving energy efficiency entirely at the discretion of the tiny-home builder, without any guidelines or goals stated. This would be a giant step backward in our commitment to attaining a “net zero” community and our city’s adopted Climate Action Plan. The state of California has actively promoted energy efficiency for the built environment since 1978 through Title 24, part 6. Title 24 has been updated over the years to set the stage for our “net zero” built environment, with the 2019 update to fully embracing and promoting net zero homes. California’s energy standards are crucial to reducing green house gas emissions of the electricity and natural gas sectors, and to lowering the costs of energy to consumers. Before the city moves forward with the acceptance of the ordinance as full-time residences in our city, there needs to be appropriate requirements

Al Fonzi makes no sense—again. If a woman alleges that a Supreme Court nominee (Brett Kavanaugh) had sexually assaulted her, the Senate committee reviewing the nominee’s qualifications is not convening a court of law. If that had been the case, the Senate committee’s ruling that Kavanaugh was unquestionably innocent would have been discarded as a mistrial, in light of the extreme bias that existed because the Senate committee was allowed to set up a “rigged” FBI investigation, which was significantly restricted in duration and scope. Further extreme bias existed because Trump held a campaign rally in which he viciously and misleadingly mocked Dr. Christine Blasey Ford’s credibility. Trump’s “lynch mob” rant against Dr. Ford was heard nationwide on TV and radio, while the Senate’s deliberation for Kavanaugh was still in progress. Kavanaugh stated that as a judge he LETTERS continued page 17

would be impartial and would follow the U.S. Constitution. Baloney. In his very first case, Kavanaugh violated both of those promises. On Oct. 11, the LA Times reported, “Kavanaugh sides with [Trump] administration,” in a Supreme Court hearing on due process for deportation of accused “criminal aliens.” Kavanaugh was right in line with Trump’s assertion that such “aliens” have no right to due process to prevent deportation. Justice Stephen Breyer pointed out that the Constitution says “no person” shall be deprived of liberty without due process of law, and Breyer noted that the clause applies to immigrants living in the U.S.A. Funny how the Constitution can be ignored, when it suits a conservative justice such as Kavanaugh. Michael Sullivan

Court’s an expensive way to resolve conflict Referencing the interesting article (“Defending pumping,” Oct. 18) by Peter Johnson, there’s an important lesson that no one seems to be heeding. The lesson is: Courts and lawyers are a very, very expensive way to resolve conflicts (I practiced law for 35 years). It is absurd that folks do not sit down (perhaps with advice from lawyers) and try to reach logical agreements instead. Note the millions of dollars spent on the current conflict in the Paso Robles

That money will substantially decrease the welfare of the citizens there, thanks to the lack of rational insight of the government operatives who fail to see the benefits of logic and negotiated agreements (or simply don’t care, because they’re spending “other people’s” money).

Fear and loathing from Big Oil
Don’t be fooled by the shameful scare tactics of oil company bosses who are flooding the media with misleading claims about loss of jobs and tax revenue. The wording of Measure G spells out the truth: Local oil production and maintenance of existing wells will continue at current levels, taxes will still be collected by SLO County from oil production, and the hardworking people in the oil fields will still be paid. But not paid much, compared to the huge earnings and tax breaks of the absentee oil corporation executives and shareholders. Dirty tricks equals filthy lucre. Sad. Jeanie Middle Class Oceano

Measure G means litigation
M
easure G-18, which would ostensibly ban new oil production and the introduction of “fracking” in the unincorporated areas of SLO County, is an exceptionally bad law with severe economic consequences and potential legal precedent for county residents. If it passes in November, expect its proponents to be further emboldened to propose ever more stringent environmental restrictions upon local residents. The first consequence of course will be the certain lawsuit that will be funded by the taxpayers to defend Measure G. Property owners affected by Measure G restrictions stand to lose millions of dollars in property value as their mineral rights to the oil under their land will be rendered worthless. Similar lawsuits have been filed elsewhere with significant economic consequences for local jurisdictions on other environmental issues. For instance you can expect the same eco-groups to renew their efforts to shut down the off-road vehicle riding areas located in Oceano Dunes, which if successful, would cost South County business communities millions of dollars in annual tourist revenue. Wine tasting rooms aren’t going to make up the volume of business that the off-road vehicle crowd brings to SLO County.
A side effect of such emboldened litigants might be lawsuits against the county for harm caused by the ill-effects of wind-driven particulate matter from the dunes. Litigants might demand that the county compensate them for health damages, at which point county attorneys may consider it’s time to condemn the Trilogy development as unsafe for human habitation, at least in areas identified as being within high concentrations of a dust plume that cannot be mitigated. A principle in hazard reduction is if you can’t remove the hazard from the people, you remove the people from the hazard. No doubt this would cause Trilogy property values to plummet, and the state would likely make its usual bottomdollar offers to compensate displaced homeowners. Blowing dust is already an element of required disclosures in real estate sales in the area. Some demands might be more on the nuisance level, such as banning the use of wood-burning fireplaces. However, natural gas is a “greenhouse gas” and therefore might not be acceptable as a replacement. Other fads of the past might re-emerge, like during the 1970s energy crisis. The governor might decide that outdoor security lighting must be minimized and recreational lighting, such as Christmas decorations, could

be banned entirely. Sound ridiculous? President Carter did exactly that during his one-term presidency in the late 1970s along with imposing national maximum highway speed limits of 55 mph. That wasn’t popular but it stuck around for years. The people proposing Measure G-18 are on a mission, a crusade to save the planet, especially from people like you and me, since we just don’t get it. If we object to the newest version of environmental religion, we are called climate deniers, similar to those who deny the Holocaust against the Jews that occurred in WWII. Measure G proponents are quite earnest in their desire to shut down the use of fossil fuels in California, indeed, across the nation. Billionaire Tom Steyer is leading the crusade with millions of dollars contributed to candidates and initiatives adopting his radical environmental agenda. His agenda will impoverish millions of middle-class people and leave the working class and working poor financially devastated. Measure G proponents ignore the fact that fossil fuels provide 97 percent of the transportation energy we use in California and are required to back up the electrical grid and alternative energy power systems. For every alternative energy plant generating electrical power there is a fossil fuel plant on
stand-by to prevent the grid from collapsing. Proponents of Measure G play on irrational fears of “fracking,” a process not used nor proposed for use in San Luis Obispo County. It isn’t necessary. They also claim that existing oil wells won’t be affected, except they will. When you lease an oil field you aren’t simply drilling one well. When oil pressure drops in a well, it’s required to drill another well within your lease area to compensate. That new well requires a permit, and under Measure G, no new drilling permits will be issued. That’s why Measure G will shut down oil production in SLO County, not today nor tomorrow but within a few years. The economic cost will be hundreds of head-of-household jobs lost, millions of dollars in lost economic activity and a significant hit to the property tax base in the county. Those are the taxes that pay school teachers, police officers, and firefighters and contribute significantly to local city/district budgets. It will also whet the appetite for further extreme measures, especially litigation. We can’t afford more extremism in SLO County. Don’t be fooled and don’t take an unnecessary financial risk: Vote no on Measure G-18. ∆ Al Fonzi is an Army lieutenant colonel of military intelligence who had a 35year military career, serving in both the Vietnam and Iraq wars.

The Shredder
Are you high? R ecreational cannabis business are coming! Hide your children! Block your doors! Arm yourselves! (Or order a pizza! I see you, boo! Pass that dutchie on the left hand side!) The city of SLO is trying to figure out who to let operate a legal pot biz and who to not. I mean, marijuana’s not like froyo or coffee, where you want a shop on every block, right? No way! But there’s got to be a way to do this fairly, to construct some sort of system that will allow the city to let the “right” business people in. Well, never fear, SLO residents, because your local government has it well in hand. They’ve drafted the “Cannabis Merit-Based Criteria and Possible Points” system, and “applicants must receive a minimum score of 70 percent of all available points in order to be issued a Cannabis Operator’s permit,” according to the document. Hmm. A solid C minus, eh? Nice! Let’s take a look. You earn five points if 90 percent of your employees are SLO County residents but only two points if 60 percent are local. Likewise with supplies, you get five points if 80 percent of your supplies are local but only two points if only 50 percent is bought locally. Hey look! You can also earn points by doing “approved community support”—like community service, I guess—or by simply giving $2,000 a month, which is not a bribe,
right? What’s an extra $24K a year to do business in SLO Town, amirite? You can also win points by being poor—10 points when “applicant includes three or more primary principals who have historically earned 80 percent or less of the median local income.” You can earn five more points if you pay employees $3 over minimum wage; another five points if you allow collective bargaining. There’re also points to be earned for sustainable environmental behavior. How’s that for some social engineering? Our illustrious red rose festooned Mayor Heidi Harmon had an idea of her own. She suggested points if you give away marijuana to cancer patients. “Sorry you have cancer, man. Here’s a doobie!” Is it me, or does it seem like “capitalism” is getting weird? What other businesses do we “allow” to do business “only” if they give away their product to the infirm, pay their employees over minimum wage, give money to the local community, do forced public service, and buy supplies from local sources? Hey The Sock Drawer, you need to give socks to the homeless if you want to stay in business in SLO Town! Also, pick up trash and hand over $2,000 to the Downtown Association every month. Sigh. I don’t remember any of this stuff in the voter-approved Proposition 64, which legalized recreational marijuana. I’m all for keeping it local, being
sustainable and environmentally responsible, and all that other awesome stuff, but this point system seems a little bit ridiculous, and it wouldn’t be tolerated if we were talking about any other business, though if Sidewalk Market could give me free beer and tacos, that’d be great! Yes, recreational pot will be lucrative, but you don’t get to milk pot businesses like dairy cows—that’s what taxes are for! Get it together, SLO Town government! Everyone’s going to have to get it together to deal with these ordinances that penalize or criminalize homeless people for, umm, being homeless. That’s thanks to a recent 9th Circuit Appeals Court ruling that basically says if there isn’t anywhere else for a homeless or indigent person to sleep indoors, criminalizing them for sleeping outdoors is considered cruel and unusual punishment. For those of you who aren’t in the know, that’s unconstitutional! Luckily, here in HappyTown, we’ve dealt with court rulings like this before. In 2012, good ol’ Stew “civil rights” Jenkins partnered up with fellow local attorney Saro Rizzo to sue the city over an ordinance that prohibited sleeping in vehicles on the streets. Under ex-SLOPD Chief Steven Gesell (glad that guy’s gone, amirite), police officers use to do
“midnight raids, banging on the windows of vehicles with their batons and telling people to get out of town,” Rizzo said. The judge in that case said the department’s enforcement actions singled out homeless people for harsh treatment and ordered the SLOPD to stop issuing citations. SLO revised its car camping ordinance, which now only prohibits camping between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m.—which is usually when people actually want to sleep—and gives violators a parking ticket. But, umm, guys, doesn’t this ordinance still single out a vulnerable population with nowhere else to go? City Attorney Christine Dietrick explained that the city’s current ordinances only ban things for certain periods of time! They just make them pay a fine for sleeping in their car at the same time that everybody else sleeps or napping on a park bench for too long or lying with their eyes closed in a city park after dark. It’s only when they don’t or can’t pay those fines that they get criminalized! Maybe we could add providing beds for the homeless to that points system the city’s bandying about for marijuana businesses that want to set up shop. City government isn’t addressing it, so we might as well socially engineer it into the private sector. ∆ The Shredder is aghast that SLO can’t figure out that pot is legal.

We know you’ve got an opinion. Everybody’s got one!
This How do you feel about the way the SLO police handle the city homeless week’s population? online m They are way too harsh on them. Being homeless isn’t a crime! poll m The cops should step up enforcement. They let the homeless get away with too much. 10/25 – m I think SLOPD is doing a great job trying to help them while enforcing the law. 11/1 m The cops treat the homeless better than they use to, but there’s still room to improve.

I
n the immortal words of Duke Ellington, “It don’t mean a thing if it ain’t got that swing—doo wah, doo wah, doo wah, doo wah, doo wah, doo wah!” This weekend, the annual Jubilee by the Sea—a three-day hot jazz music festival—returns to multiple South County venues with dozens of acts performing Friday, Oct. 26, through Sunday, Oct. 28. Presented every year by the Basin Street Regulars, who also host monthly hot jazz concerts in the Pismo Vets Hall, Jubilee by the Sea is their premier event, drawing patrons and performers from far and wide. There are too many events to list, but visit pismojazz.com for all the details. A few of the performers include The
Shake ’Em Up Jazz Band, Tom Rigney and Flambeau, Cornet Chop Suey, Tom Hook and the Terriers, and the Night Blooming Jazzmen. Special guest artists will include Carl Sonny Leyland, Bob Draga, and Washboard Steve. This year’s headliner is New York jazz band Professor Cunningham and His Old School, a highly sought-after, awardwinning act that plays jazz in the New Orleans tradition—early jazz and R&B in the style of Sidney Bechet, Fats Waller, Professor Longhair, and Fats Domino. Fronted by reed player Adrian Cunningham, an Australian native based in NYC, His Old School was formed in 2012 and has since won Best Band 2016 and 2017 at Madrid’s World Jam, and Best Band 2017,

Artifacts A dress to remember BY RYAH COOLEY
Port San Luis Lighthouse hosts Murder Mystery Dinner Port San Luis Lighthouse presents its annual Murder Mystery Dinner on Saturday, Nov. 3, and Sunday, Nov. 4, from 4 to 7:30 p.m. both evenings. This year’s production is Murder at the Pie Auction, presented by the Arroyo Grande High School Theatre Department and directed by Sean Blauvelt. This interactive play tells the story of a small town in Alaska reacting to a strange disappearance. Hours before the town’s pie baking competition is about to start, one of the pie judges goes missing. The audience becomes part of the action during the pie auction, in which real pies will be auctioned off to guests. Admission ranges from $54 to $89 and includes an Alaskathemed five-course dinner with complimentary beer and wine. Tickets are available online at my805tix.com. Guests are advised to arrive at the Wild Cherry Canyon parking area by 3:30 p.m., where they will be transported to the lighthouse by trolley. Call (805) 540-5771 for more information.

Each meeting consists of an art history lecture, an artist’s talk, or an art activity and takes place on the first Thursday of every month. Guests are welcome to bring their own lunch to enjoy during the event. Topics of upcoming Art at High Noon events are announced online at sloma.org. Call (805) 543-8562 for more information.
SLO County artists use gowns to tell women’s stories
W
hen she saw it, she knew. That little black dress hanging on the rack at the thrift store was absolutely meant to go home with San Luis Obispo artist Julie Frankel. Well, it wasn’t the dress just yet. But with a few turns of the needle and thread, Frankel knew it could be the dress to capture the spirit of Nina Simone, the musician and civil rights activist, as part of the Short Story Collection: Narrative Gowns and Feminine Histories exhibit, on display at Studios on the Park in Paso Robles starting Nov. 1. The show will feature gowns by Frankel and her longtime friend and collaborator, Atascadero artist Melinda Forbes, in addition to the fabric creations of eight other female artists. Frankel and Forbes began working together about 20 years ago, making artists’ books and hand-sewn gowns. Their pieces are typically displayed on dress forms or as hanging art, though in the past, models have worn them for art fashion shows. “We have complementary skills,” Frankel said. “Melinda is an idea person, and I’m the one at my computer organizing things and planning the date, so it goes well together.” Part of the Short Story Collection will include a grove of green-hued dresses that are more thematic in nature as well as a number of dresses inspired by specific notable women, like Frankel’s Simone dress. The piece, I Put a Spell on You, is a little black cotton number adorned with red stitching that reads, “I’m just a soul whose intentions are good. Oh Lord, please don’t let me be misunderstood.” A red bird flies between the words, and at the bottom of the dress is a red rendering of Simone, looking pensive. “I’m attracted to beauty and pain, so it’s kind of the combination of the two. And that’s why I like Frida Kahlo as well. I think there are a lot of female leaders, nurturers, and role models who embody that combination.” Many of Frankel and Forbes’ pieces can take as long as six months to a year to complete. Forbes said when she makes gowns she almost exclusively stitches by hand. “I find stitching very meditative,” Forbes said. One of Forbes’ pieces, The Rag Picker, is made entirely of scraps of old, used, and faded fabric found on a designer friend’s floor that

THIS AND THAT The Rag Picker by Melinda Forbes is made entirely of scraps, and speaks to the wasteful nature of the fashion industry.
ACTIVIST Musician and civil rights activist Nina Simone’s story inspired artist Julie Frankel to alter a dress with Simone’s likeness and words stitched onto it.
were then hand-dyed and paired with a 1950s corset. Forbes said the dress speaks to the wasteful nature of the fashion industry. “My stories aren’t always inspired by real people,” Forbes said. “My work is inspired by the work I came up with. This is a story about the rag picker who chooses the rejected to make beauty, and that’s where I come from. Much of the material I use is deteriorated. We need to see the beauty in what we already have.” Forbes said what she loves most about working with wearable art is how accessible it makes being creative feel to others. “People say, ‘Well I could do that,’ or ‘I’ve always wanted to do something like that.’ And it’s
like, yeah, do it. Get out your needle and thread and don’t be intimidated. Just start stitching.” While Frankel and Forbes’ work with gowns started before the #MeToo movement kicked off, they say that and the current rise of feminism also play a role in their work. “This is a pivotal moment for women’s stories,” Frankel said. “The experience for us is listening to our own voices as well as channeling the voices of other women throughout history.” ∆ Arts Writer Ryah Cooley likes a dress with a little shimmer and swish to it.

Holding everything together Arroyo Grande author reimagines the Cold War era with magic
I
t’s the Cold War in Berlin, and the only thing that might save us all is magic—and even that has gone awry. Cal Poly alumnus and Arroyo Grande resident W.L. Goodwater thought for sure that someone must have written something on the subject. When he found no one had, he got to work on creating Breach: A Cold War Magic Novel. Goldwater’s debut novel, which comes out on Nov. 9, is the first in a new Cold War fantasy series, where the Berlin Wall is made entirely of magic. When a breach unexpectedly appears in the wall, spies from both sides swarm to the city as World War III threatens to erupt. Karen, the story’s protagonist, is a young magician with the American Office of Magical Research and Deployment, who is sent to investigate the breach in the wall and determine if it can be fixed. But she finds that even magic itself has its own agenda. Goldwater sat down with New Times to talk magic, history, day jobs, and more.
New Times: How would you describe Breach? W.L. Goldwater: Breach is a hybrid between a spy novel and a fantasy novel set in Berlin during the Cold War.
WLG: I’ve been writing since I was a little kid. I didn’t write in college at Cal Poly, but after graduating I got back into it. Breach is probably my sixth or seventh book that I tried to get agents into, but nothing else ever really got interest. NT: What inspired you to write Breach? WLG: It sort of came to me. I had a moment of inspiration. I try to read broadly. A few years ago I was reading a lot of John le Carre, master of the spy thriller, and I was watching Agent Carter, which [shows the] crap and misogyny that women have to deal with. I like the Cold War period, and I’ve always liked fantasy. NT: How does your day job working in software relate to your writing career? WLG: I always wanted to be a writer, but I recognized the economic viability of being a writer. Writing novels and working on software have no similarities really, other than the keyboard. They exercise two different parts of my brain. NT: Who is the target audience for Breach? WLG: Anybody with a wallet. I think fans of spy novels and fans of fantasy can both be engaged. The content of
NT: How did you get into writing?

to let its surprises unfold around you, and man was I surprised. The whole “seven strangers in a hotel” set-up sounded like an Agatha Christie bit, but this film goes wildly and surprisingly off the rails. If you need some touchstones, think the Coen Brothers (Blood Simple, Barton Fink), Joe Carnahan (Smokin’ Aces), and Quentin Tarantino (The Hateful Eight). The hero of the story is Darlene Sweet, a living-paycheck-to-paycheck lounge singer, who we learn in backstory almost made it big. Of all the characters, she’s the most sympathetic, though Father Flynn is a close second. He’s losing his memory, and Bridges delivers a very effective performance. Erivo as Sweet gets to show off her amazing voice, and the film’s soundtrack is filled with great Motown sounds. It’s a stylish, clever thriller with a wallop of an ending.
This is definitely a film I’d watch again, and I also won’t soon forget Lewis Pullman’s performance as the hotel manager. He hasn’t been in a lot of films, but he sure is good in this one. He plays Miles as a man on the verge of a nervous breakdown, and when his backstory hits, it all makes sense. Yes, the film’s pacing it a bit uneven, its story is a bit too unbelievable, but this is pure entertainment. You just have to go with it. (141 min.) —Glen Starkey

Wait ’til Netflix has it NOTHING ........ Don’t waste your time country girl fighting gender norms and sexism in the early 1820s. The film is based on the French novelist Colette, who was nominated for a Nobel Prize for Literature in 1948. This film does more than just showcase a writer on screen hunched over a desk with a burrowed brow scribbling on paper. It does an impressive job of keeping the audience captivated by the novelist’s metamorphosis from a wife kept in the dark to someone challenging her husband for the rights to her writing and freedom. A year before Gabrielle turned 20 years old, she lived at home in the countryside with her mother and father. Her parents found themselves in financial disarray and worried about Gabrielle’s future. They wanted her to marry a prominent literary figure—Henry Gauthier-Villars (Dominic West)—who also happens to be a family friend.
Sexism, constant betrayal, and Willy’s money-driven schemes put a strong wedge between the couple. And while Willy believes that he’s making a change in the literary scene, he forgets his mantra: “The hand that holds the pen holds history.” Colette has a firm grasp on hers as she begins to explore herself, with the help of her lover Mathilde de Morny or “Missy” (Denise Gough), in a grossly sexist and male-dominated world. Colette does more than demonstrate the novelist’s successes; Westmoreland and his late husband Richard Glatzer depict the metamorphosis of a woman’s sexuality and overcoming sexism. Knightly impressively depicts Colette’s abrasive fights, relationships, lavish lifestyle, and internal battles that lead her to reclaim what’s hers—her life as a writer and artist. Colette’s fight for creative ownership of her work and gender roles
pushes her to overcome societal constraints and sexual oppression, and revolutionize literature. (111 min.) —Karen Garcia

SEARCH AND RESCUE American submarine Capt. Joe Glass (Gerard Butler, left) and a group of US Navy SEALs must find and retrieve the kidnapped Russian president, in Hunter Killer. MOVIES from page 45 The film opens in the cockpit with Armstrong in an experimental plane designed to pierce Earth’s atmosphere, reach zero gravity in near space, and then descend back to the ground. It’s noisy, shaky, and chaotic, and it gives you a sense of both the wonder and sheer terror of early space travel. The space race between the Soviets and the U.S. had an existentialist undercurrent—the Cold War was in full force—and the Russians were beating us at every step. It was essential that we reach the moon first. Back on the ground, Armstrong was wrestling with his own demons. With the death of his young daughter Karen (Lucy Stafford) to cancer, Armstrong harbored a secret fatalism. He knew the danger of space travel was real. He had lost colleagues, but stoicism was paramount. Gosling manages to convey all these complications within a man of few words. His Armstrong is intensely focused, and the loss of his daughter drives him deeper into his work. Armstrong’s wife, Janet, is a big part of the story, and Foy is amazing in the role. Janet, too, has to be stoic—she knows her husband might not come back. There’s an amazing scene in which she forces her husband to sit down with their two boys and explain to them the very real dangers. It really is miraculous that the mission was successful. Even though viewers should know the outcome, there’s plenty of tension throughout the film. The spacecraft are rickety, the technology antiquated, but
the heroics are timeless. At the end of the film, the three returning astronauts are quarantined. It’s fascinating to think that three men spent eight days in space, that two of them walked on the moon, and that when they returned they were locked in a glass box with very pedestrian-looking hotel furnishings. What a dichotomy! Of course, there was nothing glamorous about early space travel. (141 min.) —Glen Starkey
FREE SOLO What’s it rated? PG-13 What’s it worth? Full Price Where’s it showing? The Palm, Galaxy I don’t think I’ve ever sweated so much in a movie theater in my life. Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi and Jimmy Chin helm this raw and gripping National Geographic documentary, Free Solo, which chronicles 33-year-old rock climber Alex Honnold’s incredible 2017 ascent up the face of El Capitan, a 3,000-foot-tall rock formation in Yosemite, without protective gear—the first in human history to accomplish the feat. Honnold is already a renowned free solo climber, conqueror of some of the world’s gnarliest climbs (think Yosemite’s Half Dome), before he decides to tackle El Capitan, the mother of all faces. The documentary drops into Honnold’s life as he sets his sights on the climb. We learn about him as a person, what draws him to free solo climbing, and the issues he’s grappling with (like trying to maintain a romantic relationship despite his climbing obsession). The doc is as much about Honnold and

his psyche as it is about the miraculous climb at the end. What makes someone so intent on doing something given the risks? It’s a question that Honnold must grapple with and answer for his girlfriend, Sanni McCandless, as he prepares to face certain death with one tiny slip of the hand, foot, or mind. It’s not just the sheer height of El Capitan’s face that’s terrifying; it’s the technicalities of the climb, which the film crew does an incredible job of demonstrating and explaining as Honnold practices on the various sections of the face beforehand. My favorite aspect of this film is just how raw and authentic it is. There’s no need to overproduce or dramatize this story, and Chin, who seems to lead the cinematography, does a tremendous job at letting the tale tell itself. It’s a very, very real and transparent chronicle of a man driven to do the impossible, but also struggling with the potential consequences. For example, during his first attempt at the climb, Honnold gets cold feet, and the next thing we see is Honnold buying a house with Sanni in Las Vegas. Is he actually going to do it? The story seesaws with Honnold as he takes a nonlinear path to the climb. The film crew appears as shaken as anybody by what they’re doing. They wrestle with the ethical question of whether they’re participating in, or even encouraging, someone’s suicide. Doubts are had and tears are shed as they prepare for the worst-case scenario while trying not to rattle Honnold. It’s a journey you don’t want to miss. The climb itself is some of the most riveting and horrifying, yet inspiring,

Netflix’s newest PHOTO COURTESY OF NETFLIX original series, The Haunting of Hill House, breathes new life into the haunted house genre, taking the well-worn supernatural horror elements we are all familiar with and using them as a frame for what is essentially a tragic family drama. The series is loosely based on the seminal Shirley Jackson novel of the same name, and follows the story of the seven-member Crain family in the past and present. The episodes jump back and forth in time between the childhood of the five Crain family siblings, which is spent in Hill House—the sprawling Gothic mansion their parents are trying to fix and sell— and present, where those same children, now grown, have a fraught and fractured relationship with each other stemming from their mother’s supposed suicide, a traumatic event that forced them to flee Hill House all those years ago.

Luke (Oliver Jackson-Cohen), one of two twins in the family, is a heroin addict who has relapsed so many times that most of the family has simply given up on him. The suicide of Luke’s twin sister, Nell, forces the broken family to come back together and confront what happened to them at Hill House, adding an extra layer of drama and tension to the supernatural storyline. For anyone who’s ever had contentious relationships with their family, the interactions that occur amid all the ghouls and ghosts are instantly relatable. It’s that focus on the family’s drama that makes this series so interesting. At times, it feels like if you stripped away the horror elements of the series, you’d get a show closer to This is Us than The Shining. Introducing the familiar dynamics of family—the secrets, resentments, and bonds shared by its members—grounds the characters and ratchets up the horror elements to a truly terrifying level. The Haunting of Hill House is a prime example of why haunted house stories remain a fixture in horror, and a master class in how to elevate the genre and push it forward in new and interesting ways.

HALLOWEEN
What’s it rated? R What’s it worth? Matinee Where’s it showing? Downtown Centre, Galaxy, Park, Stadium 10, Sunset Drive-In David Gordon Green (Snow Angels, Pineapple Express, Joe) co-writes and directs this sequel to John Carpenter’s Halloween (1978). Completely erasing the continuity of the original film’s seven sequels, serial killer Michael Myers has been locked up for 40 years. Meanwhile, Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis), the sole survivor of the Haddonfield Halloween murders, has been preparing for the day he should ever escape and inevitably come after her. And whadda ya know, he does escape, and just in time for Halloween, too. Just a day before the 40th anniversary of the murders, Myers is set to be transferred to a different prison (what a terrible coincidence). There’s a bus crash and yada yada yada he’s out! Laurie convinces her daughter’s family to join her Halloween night at her house, where she’s devised a bomb shelter of sorts. To withstand the apocalypse? Nope, just Michael. It’s all for Michael. “He’s waited for this night, and I’ve waited for him,” Laurie says at one point. This is where the overthinking on my part begins. I just don’t buy this theme at all. Where did this obsession come from? As far as the first film is concerned, the murders were completely random. The original never implies that Myers chose Laurie, only that she happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. It was Halloween II that made Myers’ choice to pursue Laurie deliberate (the big reveal that they are biological siblings). Imagine a direct sequel to A New Hope that doesn’t acknowledge the events of The Empire Strikes Back. Would they really expect us to simply forget that Vader is Luke’s father? Yet, Curtis’s livid performance suggests a symbiotic relationship between Strode and Myers of Harry Potter/Voldemort proportions. If we’re only given the events of the first film to fall back on, this notion makes absolutely zero sense. It’s as if Green and co-writers Jeff Fradley and Danny McBride couldn’t help but write Strode as the product of the franchise as a whole. Oops! Sloppy writing and inconsistent retconning aside, Halloween is worth watching for the things it does right. The performances, score, and overall

atmosphere are on par with the original, making it a worthy homage. But the best homages still leave room for originality. This one leaves a tiny bit. It’s obvious how much Green and company love the material, but they cross the line between reverence and flat-out plagiarism too often. Still, the predator-becomes-the-prey motif pays off quite well and Curtis wielding a shotgun hunting down Myers is worth the price of admission alone. (106 min.) —Caleb Wiseblood

Tucker is pursued by Detective John Hunt (Casey Affleck) and— despite his “profession”—loved by Jewel (Sissy Spacek). In what’s reportedly Redford’s final onscreen role, we’re handed the true

account of Forrest Tucker, a man whose tale seems taller and trickier than anything that could be true yet whose earnest zeal for life makes the man more than a myth. While he sees the world as his oyster, Tucker’s life has been microscoped and compartmentalized with every car chase, prison escape, and con gone wrong. He’s got to blend in, be nice, and look the part of a normal man. He’s part of a group of over-the-hill ex-cons who haven’t quite scratched their itch for the next great heist. Teddy (Daniel Glover) and Waller (Tom Waits) bring an interesting relationship into the story, and the veteran actors are spot-on in their performances. Robert Redford is one of the greats and this role is no exception, but the most brilliant performance here comes from Sissy Spacek, a beautiful widower who doesn’t mind a bit of nonsense as long as you aren’t trying to pull one over on her. She’s Oscar worthy in this role, and it was so great to see her on screen again. She falls for Forrest immediately—it would be hard not to with his charm—and soon the film becomes just

as much the story of their relationship as it is about his sorted past. Affleck is clearly well loved by director Lowery, and their body of work together holds its own. He’s a driven but wounded detective and family man, and as the game of cat and mouse goes on, you can’t help but wonder how much he really wants to catch the elusive and charming old man. The pure charm and light that bounces off of Tucker leaves even the very bank tellers he’s robbed wondering if it may have been their idea to hand over stacks of bills. He even tries to get Jewel in on the fun by leading her out of a jewelry store without paying for a bracelet she tried on, but his hopes of a Bonnie and Clyde life are quickly squashed when Jewel returns to the store under the guise of forgetfulness and makes him pay for the bangle. Eventually Forrest is caught again, and instead of escaping he listens to Jewel and waits out his sentence, finally getting released and going home with her. Once in the day-to-day mundane of life though, he can’t help but wish for the next big chase, the next mark, and the next escape. Tucker was a man with a larger-thanlife tale to tell, and luckily Lowrey’s rendition of it holds up, and the character is brought into the stratosphere to once again win us over and walk away with our wallets. Superb performances and subtle nods to Redford and Spacek’s film history just add to the fun of this one—definitely worth a trip to the theater. (93 min.) —Anna Starkey

REJECT THIS! Queercore: How to Punk a Revolution screens on Oct. 26, at The Palm Theatre, documenting Homo- and Queercore, the LGBTQ-offshoot of punk rock, including bands like Bikini Kill (pictured). communities. It features appearances by filmmaker John Waters, Sonic Youth member Kim Gordon, Gossip vocalist Beth Ditto, and many other notables. This is a must-see for anyone interested in the punk movement, LGBTQ issues, underground zines, or social history. Much of the film is focused on GB Jones and Bruce LaBruce, who in many ways invented the Homo- and Queercore scenes in Toronto where they made experimental films and put out the underground zine J.D.s. There really was no scene, but their zine made it look like there was, and then bands rose up to fill the void. It’s a pretty remarkable tale of conjuring what you wish for. The burgeoning movement this film chronicles was truly revolutionary—no rules, no symbols, no dress codes … just pure expression. As one interviewee noted, “We didn’t want a church; we wanted a
circus.” High on shock value, Jones and LaBruce’s zine inspired other scenes in San Francisco, LA, and Chicago, where proud misfits did their own conjuring to create the scene they wanted to live. Queercore is filled with little revelations I hadn’t heard before. LaBruce, for instance, claims the term “punk” came from passive boys in jail that got “fucked up the ass,” explaining that punk rock music was inherently sexual and inherently queer. We also learn, however, that as punk became more popular, it became homophobic, attracting angry young men and violent behavior. The Queercore movement sprang up to counteract this homophobia just as punk rock itself sprang up to reject and subvert the dominant cultural paradigm. Along the way we meet bands such
as The Germs, Catholic Discipline, Nervous Gender, Phranc, Bikini Kill, Pansy Division, and many others. The music’s great and the archival footage is amazing, and the critique of “straight” society is insightful and necessary. As another interviewee noted, “straight” didn’t mean heterosexual—it meant narrow-minded. I should warn you that the film is unrated and there are scenes of fellatio as well as a fair bit of nudity. It’s not gratuitous—it’s all part and parcel to the history of this fascinating slice of American culture—but if you’re going to freak out watching a guy blowing another trans guy, don’t go. Of course, you’ll be missing an entertaining and edifying documentary. (83 min.) —Glen Starkey MOVIES continued page 49

Cooper takes a sweeping look at the rise and fall of stardom, the shallowness of the entertainment industry, creativity, substance abuse, family dynamics, and romance. It’s a stunning achievement, and I was most surprised by Lady Gaga, whose acting chops were impressive. I’ve never been a big fan of her music, but her voice is undeniably stunning. Almost every time she sang, the tears welled up. To see the fashion icon with her natural hair color and little to no makeup made her more vulnerable and sympathetic. It’s been driven into Ally that despite her talent, she doesn’t have the looks for stardom. There’s an amazing scene where she overhears her father (a terrific Andrew Dice Clay) explaining to his friends that her looks prevent her from success. When Jack
wanders into a bar after a gig looking for a much-needed drink, he happens upon Ally singing “La Vie En Rose” and is immediately smitten by her looks and talent. Later that night, she surprises him by making up a song about him on the spot. Jack gives her the confidence to believe in herself, to feel love, to feel good enough. His most important lesson to Ally is to be authentic, so when he sees her manager Rez (Rafi Gavron) changing her appearance, adding dancers and choreography to her show, he’s artistically offended, though Ally perceives it as jealousy. They’re disconnecting just when they need each other most. Like all substance abusers, Jack’s behavior is unforgivable—he says terrible things to Ally and embarrasses her with his loutish actions.

Angeles-based tenor saxophonist and producer, is perceived by many as something of a modern day John Coltrane, blending unassailable technical prowess with an entrancing spiritual striving and vision. In addition to his own works, which include his breakthrough album, the universally acclaimed The Epic (2015), he’s also collaborated with the best of the best musicians in LA, like Flying Lotus, Thundercat, and Kendrick Lamar, on their respective masterpieces. Washington came on stage as a sextet, backed by Ryan Porter (trombone), Miles Mosley (upright bass), Ronald Bruner Jr. (drums), Tony Austin (drums), Patrice Quinn (vocals), and Brandon Coleman (keyboards). Coleman also opened for Washington, and he nearly stole the show with his dazzling virtuosity, showmanship, and infectious joy. He was a hit with the ladies in the audience, for sure. But the wonderful truth here is that all seven on the stage were world-class musicians. Washington was generous in empowering each of them to shine right from the beginning with extended solos—almost letting them get loose and comfortable before he even was. Mosley particularly awed on the upright bass, his inspired fingers flying up and down its giant neck with perfect rhythm and precision. I was immediately struck by Washington’s talent as a bandleader. Even at the show’s wildest moments, he was keenly aware of the path of the music, guiding it in the direction he wanted—even with just body language and eye contact. Being the physically largest man on the stage, I pictured Washington as almost a break to chat force of gravity up there, sculpting the musical

In Paso Robles—and across the county—this kind of Italian-made pasta is a cherished treat.

order, too. The fresh pasta, including a charcoalblack, slightly briny squid ink spaghetti neri, is available in the refrigerated case alongside fresh pastas of the day (this might be macaroni, trombe, reginetta Napoletane, zitti, gemelli ... you get the idea). Ravioli stuffed with locally raised lamb and other savory fillings can be found in the freezer case. You’ll also find Atascadero-made Alle-Pia salumi, local honey, olive oil, and imported Italian staples like canned tomatoes and “chocolate salami,” which should be on everyone’s holiday gift list. Nearby, a small table filled with Windrose Farm produce rounds out your dinner plans. In essence, Etto is exactly the kind of shop you’d find in Naples or Parma. Everything is local, everything is delicious, and you can totally have a conversation with the pasta maker while he’s doing his thing. “Kids come in and they are just fascinated, and we always take them back to see the pasta being made,” Terrizzi says. “We all want to know where our food comes from, and that it’s clean and made with care. There are so many parallels to Italy and Paso Robles— the climate, the wine, the food.” The winemaker points out the glass door at the golden hills, illuminated by the late morning light. “I mean, just look outside and over the horizon. We could be somewhere in Italy right now.” ∆

ARROYO GRANDE
Wild, wild, east
It’s hard out there for a black and white ruffed lemur. First, you were born kinda funny-looking, with two-toned blotches all over your fur and intense, orange eyes that bug out of your head. Then, you’re taken from your home. Not cool! Thankfully, there are good natured folks like the animal ambassadors at Zoo to You, who give downtrodden exotic animals a second chance at an enjoyable, healthy life. These conservationists give voice to wildlife by providing a permanent, loving home for displaced, abused, abandoned, or permanently injured wild and exotic animals, and they share these stories through Zoo to You and Wild Things outreach programs. This Oct. 27 and 28 you can support the Paso Robles nonprofit while taking a trip around Eastside Paso Robles wineries. Yes, I am indeed speaking of the annual Halloween Poker Run. Hosted from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. throughout the weekend, the annual Zoo to You Halloween Passport offers up a wild time with exotic animals, complimentary wine tasting, and fabulous prizes. Get your $25 passport stamped at all 46 East participating wineries. Not only does that single ticket pay for all your tasting fees for both days, but you’ll also come face to face with a few furry friends on Saturday. Who knows, perhaps you’ll even come nose to nose with those unforgettable orange eyes. Take a photo, it’ll last longer! Learn more and get tickets at pasorobleswinerieseast.com. ∆ Hayley Thomas Cain is wild about lemurs at hthomas@newtimesslo.com.

ARIES
LIBRA
(March 21-April 19): In her poem “Shedding Skin,” Harryette Mullen compares her own transformation to the action a snake periodically carries out to renew itself. Since you now have an excellent opportunity to undertake your own molting process, you may find her thoughts helpful. (I’ve rendered them in prose for easier reading.) “Pulling out of the old scarred skin—old rough thing I don’t need now—I strip off, slip out of, leave behind. Shedding toughness, peeling layers down to vulnerable stuff. And I’m blinking off old eyelids for a new way of seeing. By the rock I rub against, I’m going to be tender again.” Halloween costume suggestion: snake sloughing its skin.
(Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “There is a season for wildness and a season for settledness, and this is neither. This season is about becoming.” Author Shauna Niequist wrote that. In accordance with the astrological omens, I endorse her perspective as true and useful for you. You’ve zipped through your time of fertile chaos, conjuring up fresh possibilities. When January arrives, you’ll be ready to work on stability and security. But for now, your assignment is to blossom. Halloween costume suggestions: beautiful creature hatching from an egg; strong sprout cracking out of a seed.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): “Only the young and stupid are confident about sex and romance,” says 49-year-old author Elizabeth Gilbert, who has written extensively about those subjects. I agree with her. I’ve devoted myself to studying the mysteries of love for many years, yet still feel like a rookie. Even if you are smarter about these matters than Gilbert and me, Taurus, I urge you to adopt a humble and curious attitude during the next few weeks. The cosmos has prepared some interesting lessons for you, and the best way to take advantage is to be eagerly receptive and open-minded. Halloween costume suggestion: sex researcher, love explorer, intimacy experimenter.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): “My way of learning is to heave a wild and unpredictable monkey-wrench into the machinery,” wrote Gemini author Dashiell Hammett. But I recommend that you use his approach very rarely, and only when other learning methods aren’t working. Most of the time, your best strategy for getting the lessons you need is to put lubricating oil into the machinery, not a monkey-wrench. That’ll be especially true in the coming weeks. I suggest that you turn the machinery off for a while as you add the oil and do some maintenance. Halloween costume suggestion: repair person; computer techie; machine whisperer.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): The great Swedish filmmaker Ingmar Bergman was a Cancerian like you and me. One of the factors contributing to his success was that he put his demons to good use, “by harnessing them to his chariot.” He also testified that he gained control over his demons by taking long walks after breakfast. “Demons don’t like fresh air,” he said. “They prefer it if you stay in bed with cold feet.” I suspect that now would be an excellent time to adopt his advice. Halloween costume suggestion: walk your demon on a leash, or make it into a puppet, or harness it to your chariot.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Throughout the Halloween season, I encourage you to fantasize extensively about what your dream home would look like and feel like if you had all the money necessary to create it. What colors would you paint the walls? Would you have carpets or hardwood floors? What would be your perfect lighting, furniture, and décor? As you gazed out your windows, what views would you see? Would there be nature nearby or urban hotspots? Would you have an office or music room or art studio? Have fun imagining the sanctuary that would bring out the best in you. Halloween costume suggestion: the ultimate homebody.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): “Extraordinary things are always hiding in places people never think to look,” writes novelist Jodi Picoult. That’s crucial for you to meditate on during the coming weeks. Why? Because your superpower is going to be the ability to find extraordinary things that are hiding in places where people have almost never thought to look. You can do both yourself and those you care for a big favor by focusing your intensity on this task. Halloween costume suggestions: sleuth, treasure hunter, private eye, Sherlock Holmes.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): “He believed in magic,” writes author Michael Chabon about a character in his novel The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay. “Not in the so-called magic of candles, pentagrams, and bat wings,” nor “dowsing rods, séances, weeping statues, werewolves, wonders, or miracles.” Then what kind? Chabon says it’s the “impersonal magic of life,” like coincidences and portents that reveal their meanings in retrospect. I bring this to your attention, Scorpio, because now is a favorable time to call on the specific kind of magic that you regard as real and helpful. What kind of magic is that? Halloween costume suggestion: magician, witch, wizard.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): “If adventures will not befall a young lady in her own village, she must seek them abroad.” Sagittarian author Jane Austen wrote that in her novel Northanger Abbey, and now I’m passing her message on to you, slightly altered. My version is, “If adventures will not befall Sagittarian people of any age or gender in their own neighborhood, they must seek them abroad.” And where exactly is “abroad”? The dictionary says it might mean a foreign country, or it could simply mean outside or in another place. I’d like to extend the meaning further to include anywhere outside your known and familiar world. Halloween costume suggestion: traveler on a pilgrimage or explorer on a holy quest.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): PR executives at a beer company offered to pay me a lot of money if I would sneak a product placement ad into your horoscope. They asked me to pretend there was a viable astrological reason to recommend that you imbibe their product in abundance. But the truth is, the actual planetary omens suggest the opposite. You should not in fact be lounging around in a haze of intoxication. You should instead be working hard to drum up support for your labor of love or your favorite cause. Very Important People will be more available to you than usual, and you’ll be wise to seek their input. Halloween costume suggestion: the Ultimate Fundraiser; Networker of the Year; Chief Hobnobber.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): “What kind of idea are you?” asks author Salmasn Rushdie. “Are you the kind that compromises, does deals, accommodates itself, aims to find a niche, to survive; or are you the cussed, bloody-minded, ramrod-backed type of damnfool notion that would rather break than sway with the breeze?” I pose this question to you, Aquarius, because I think you could be an effective version of either idea in the coming weeks. If you’re the latter—the cussed, damnfool notion—you may change your world in dramatic ways. Halloween costume suggestions: revolutionary; crusader; agitator; rabble-rouser.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): “There is no beauty without some strangeness,” wrote Edgar Allen Poe. Fashion designer Rei Kawakubo ventured further, declaring, “Strangeness is a necessary ingredient in beauty.” She also added another nuance to her definition: “For something to be beautiful, it doesn’t have to be pretty.” I’ll offer you one more seed for thought: wabi-sabi. It’s a Japanese term that refers to a kind of beauty that’s imperfect, transitory, and incomplete. I bring these clues to your attention, Pisces, because now is an excellent time to refine and clarify your own notion of beauty—and re-commit yourself to embodying it. Halloween costume suggestion: the embodiment of your definition of beauty. ∆
