downtown area without crossing the freeway. District 1 has a Latino citizen voting-age population (CVAP) of 50.4% whereas District 3 has a Latino CVAP of 43.4%. The minority CVAP for District 3 is 50%. Population deviation refers to the difference in population sizes among districts. The current district map for Santa Barbara has a population deviation of nearly 20%, much higher than the 10% threshold deemed to be constitutional, according to demographer Daniel Phillips. Judge Elizabeth Allen White first nominated the map as the plan to be recommended to the city, saying it “seems to address all the factors we need to look at.” “It’s geographically contiguous, there is an undivided community of interest, there are easily identifiable boundaries, it’s compact and in compliance with Banales,” Judge White said, referring to a stipulated judgment that says the intent should include two electoral districts where Latinos make up a majority of the eligible voters. “We’re minimizing the shifting of voters between districts,” Judge White continued.

The Santa Barbara Independent Redistricting Commission has chosen a district map that will be recommended to the city. The map features updated boundaries for the districts, which elect members of the Santa Barbara City Council. At its meeting Wednesday, the three-judge panel unanimously picked the DEC Community of Interest Plan. It has a total population deviation of 7.4%. Under this map, District 1 is focused on the Eastside community but does have a presence on State Street and East Beach, including the Funk Zone. District 2 includes the Mesa and keeps all of West Beach. That district extends east of Modoc Road. District 3 includes the Westside as well as La Cumbre Junior High School and the Westside Neighborhood Center. District 4 includes a small coastal presence and is centered on the Riviera. District 5 also has a small coastal presence but remains largely in the upper State Street area and includes the airport. District 6 includes the Please see REDISTRICTING on A4

“I just went (to Poland) because I saw there was a lot of people coming in,” said Santa Barbara caregiver Dennis Snitskiy, whom the NewsPress photographed recently at Stearns Wharf. “I just went there to see how I could help.”

By KAITLYN SCHALLHORN NEWS-PRESS STAFF-WRITER

Dennis Snitskiy can’t help but think of the adage: “War brings out the worst and the best in people.” It’s a phrase that reverberated through his mind as he dropped everything to journey to Poland earlier this month, bags

laden with bandages and pain medication and other medical supplies, to help as refugees fled Ukraine. He rented a car, ferrying supplies among various refugee organizations around Kraków, and transported families to safety outside of the city. The war — and the ensuing refugee crisis — is personal for Mr. Snitskiy. He was born and

raised in Ukraine, living for about a decade in Kyiv before moving to Santa Barbara eight years ago. In recent months, Mr. Snitskiy has watched from halfway across the world as his home is invaded and attacked by Russia. Some of the people crossing the border into Poland now, Mr. Snitskiy said, are his friends. “I just went (to Poland) because

I saw there was a lot of people coming in,” Mr. Snitskiy said in an interview with the NewsPress earlier this week upon his return to Santa Barbara. “I just went there to see how I could help. It’s logistical things like … transporting people from point A to point B, bringing medical Please see SNITSKIY on A4

Assembly passes Cunningham-sponsored billto mitigate human trafficking By KAITLYN SCHALLHORN NEWS-PRESS STAFF-WRITER

Assemblymember Jordan Cunningham

The Assembly unanimously passed legislation Thursday meant to cut down on human trafficking in the hotel industry throughout the state. AB 1788, co-authored by Assemblymember Jordan Cunningham, R-San Luis Obispo, would allow city and district attorneys to seek civil penalties on hotel and motel owners if supervisors knowingly or willfully ignored trafficking in their establishments without contacting law enforcement, a national trafficking hotline or a victims support group. “Human trafficking is the fastest-growing crime in the United States, and it is happening in hotels and motels throughout all parts of California,” said Assemblymember Cunningham,

whose district includes northern Santa Barbara County. “AB 1788 will give local prosecutors another tool to save trafficking victims and punish those who try to provide traffickers with a safe haven.” The bill passed the Assembly 65-0. Assemblymember Cunningham said he hoped to see the bill move through the Senate and get the governor’s signature so district and city attorneys can begin to utilize this to crack down on trafficking in “shady hotels and motels.” “What we’ve seen is there’s a gap in enforcement between the federal and local levels,” Assemblymember Cunningham told the News-Press. “I think it’s going to be a great tool in the arsenal as we continue our fight against human trafficking.” Assembly Republican Leader James Gallagher praised

Assemblymember Cunningham and Assemblymember Suzette Martinez Valladares, R-Santa Clarita, the joint author on the bill, for their work. “Republicans are leading the way in fighting sex trafficking,” Assemblymember Gallagher said on social media. The bill is supported by Crime Victims United, the Children’s Advocacy Institute, the California State Sheriff’s Association, the California District Attorneys’ Association, Concerned Women for America and more. It was tweaked from an earlier version to address concerns from the hotel industry and build a bigger support system, Assemblymember Cunningham said. Assemblymember Cunningham is a former San Luis Obispo prosecutor. email: kschallhorn@newspress.com

Christy Lozano’s name will remain on the ballot in the Santa Barbara County superintendent of schools race. Santa Barbara County Superior Court Judge Colleen Sterne ruled this week that Ms. Lozano, a Santa Barbara Unified School District teacher, is qualified to run for Santa Barbara County superintendent of schools despite a lawsuit filed by former Democratic consultant Mollie Culver. Ms. Culver and her attorney, Richard Rios, had contended Ms. Lozano didn’t have an administrative services credential. But Ms. Lozano and her lawyer, John Thyne, argued she’s qualified to serve as county superintendent of schools because of her certificate of eligibility for an administrative services credential. The ruling upheld a decision by Joseph Holland, the registrar of voters, that Ms. Lozano is qualified to run. “We won (the court decision) because it is a fundamental right of every qualified citizen to run for public office, and I am totally qualified for the position of superintendent,” Ms. Lozano told the News-Press Thursday in a statement. Ms. Lozano is campaigning against Dr. Susan Salcido, who’s running for re-election to the position she has held since 2017. “I am happy that Judge Sterne,

who focused only on the law, found that the voters should be the ones who decide elections instead of politically motivated operatives and their attorneys,” Ms. Lozano said. “I am grateful for the support of the many parents, students, neighbors and friends, as well as my own attorney John Thyne, who continues to support me in my campaign to bring common sense leadership focused on our children’s best interests to the school system,” Ms. Lozano said. Judge Sterne’s decision came on Wednesday, the day before ballots needed to be finalized for printing for the June 7 primary election. email: dmason@newspress.com

GOLETA — The city of Goleta is seeking the public’s opinions about a strategy for decent housing, a sustainable environment and economic expansion. That’s outlined in the draft action plan. The plan contains identifiable benchmarks for measuring progress through goals, objectives and community development strategies to meet the city’s housing needs and to provide services to the low-income, homeless and special needs populations. The Draft 2022-2023 Action Plan also sets forth funding allocations for the 2022-2023 planning period, according to a news release. Comments on the plan are being accepted for a public

review period that will end at 3 p.m. May 2. The review period provides an opportunity for the public to offer their views and recommendations to the city on the subject of Community Development Block Grant-funded housing and community development-related activities. The Draft Action Plan can be viewed at www.cityofgoleta.org/ home/showdocument?id=26464 &t=637842320183244174. Comments can be submitted to: City of Goleta, Neighborhood Services Department, Attn: Shanna Dawson, 130 Cremona Drive, Goleta 93117 or emailed to sdawson@cityofgoleta.org.

Oscar winner Anjelica Huston has a message for the California Legislature: Pass a bill banning the expansion of commercial animal feeding operations. Ms. Huston, an actress, producer and author, sent a letter to Assemblymember Robert Rivas, D-Salinas, and other members of the Assembly Agriculture Committee earlier this week encouraging the passage of AB 2764. (Assemblymember Rivas chairs the committee.) “This bill would help protect the state from devastating droughts and deadly heat waves. Factory farms and slaughterhouses are a significant contributor to California’s carbon footprint and are sucking the state’s water supply dry, so adding more of them to the mix would be disastrous,” Ms. Huston said. “A moratorium on building such facilities would also help prevent extreme cruelty to animals — and who wouldn’t support that?” Ms. Huston called the legislation a “bare-bones, commonsense approach to reducing environmental

devastation in the future.” The bill is sponsored by Assemblymembers Adrin Nazarian, D- Van Nuys, and Alex Lee, D-San José. It was referred to the Agriculture Committee earlier this week. “Californians support laws that protect animals, the environment and workers, so it’s no surprise that thousands of people have joined Anjelica Huston in contacting officials and supporting the proposed ban on opening new slaughterhouses and factory farms,” a spokesperson for PETA, the animal rights organization, told the NewsPress. “PETA reminds everyone that a moratorium on these filthy, crowded and dangerous facilities is simply common sense, and if it passes, it could slow our descent into the climate catastrophe.” Ms. Huston, 70, won an Academy Award for her role in “Prizzi’s Honor” in 1985. She has starred in “The Addams Family,” “Crimes and Misdemeanors,” “The Royal Tenenbaums” and “Enemies, A Love Story.” email: kschallhorn@newspress. com

Santa Barbara County reported 35 new COVID-19 cases Thursday. Of those, the highest number, nine, was reported in Lompoc and nearby Mission Hills and Vandenberg Village, according to the Public Health Department. Elsewhere, four cases were in Santa Maria. Neighboring Orcutt had one case. Seven cases were in Santa Barbara and unincorporated Mission Canyon. Five cases were in Isla Vista. Two cases were in Goleta. One case was in unincorporated Goleta Valley and Gaviota. One case was in the South County corridor, which includes Montecito,

Summerland and Carpinteria. The locations of five cases are pending. Seventeen patients are recovering in county hospitals. Another five are recovering in intensive care units. Santa Barbara County now has a total of 85,391 cases, of which 128 are still infectious. The total number of deaths remains at 673. The Santa Barbara County Public Health Department reported that 72.3% of the eligible 5-and-older population is fully vaccinated. Of the entire county population (all ages), 68% is fully vaccinated. All numbers are provided by the health department.

Santa Barbara County sheriff’s deputies, who provide law enforcement for Goleta, will be actively looking for drivers who are in violation of the state’s hands free cell phone law during April, which is Distracted Driving Awareness Month. “Holding your phone and using it while driving is not only dangerous, but also illegal. For the safety of your family and others on the road, put the phone away and focus on driving,” said Sgt. Noel Rivas. According to a 2021 statewide California Public Opinion Survey, three out of four drivers said distracted driving because of

texting was their biggest safety concern. In April 2019, the California Highway Patrol issued nearly 20,000 citations for handsfree cell phone law violations. Under current law, drivers are not allowed to hold a phone or electronic communications device while operating a vehicle. This includes talking, texting, using an app or while stopped at a red light. Using a handheld cell phone while driving is punishable by a fine. Violating the hands-free law for a second time within 36 months of a prior conviction for the same offense will result in a point being added to a driver’s record. If you have an important phone call, text, email, or need to program directions, pull over to a safe parking spot, law enforcement advises. Please see BLOTTER on A4

President Biden to release oil reserves Critics say decision is too little, too late

Lt. Gov. Eleni Kounalakis

California extends eviction moratorium in historic moment By KAITLYN SCHALLHORN NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

With Lt. Gov. Eleni Kounalakis’ signature, California extended its eviction moratorium Thursday through June. The moment was particularly historic: Lt. Gov. Kounalakis is the first woman in California’s history to sign legislation into law. She is serving as the acting governor while Gov. Gavin Newsom is out of the state on a family vacation. “California’s nation-leading rent relief program has provided much-needed relief for more than 220,00 households across the state,” Lt. Gov. Kounalakis said. “Today’s action will provide additional time to thousands more who are in the process of acquiring emergency relief.” AB 2179 from Assemblymember Tim Grayson, D-Concord, and Assemblymember Buffy Wicks, D-Oakland, extends the eviction protections to those who had already applied for state or local assistance by March 31. The bill passed the Senate earlier Thursday. “California is leading the nation’s economic recovery from the pandemic, and we’re committed to ensuring all of our communities can access the supports they need to get back on their feet,” Gov. Newsom said in a statement. “Today’s action preserves important protections so that struggling families can keep a roof over their heads as the state works to provide critical assistance to thousands of households across California.” Also on Thursday, Attorney General Rob Bonta said he has sent “warning letters” to 91 law firms throughout California that represent landlords in eviction cases. He said his office had been informed that some firms and clients may be violating the law in evictions by falsely claiming tenants had not properly notified them of pending emergency rental assistance applications. “We have reason to believe

that some landlords and their attorneys may be filing false declarations to push hardworking Californians out of their homes,” Attorney General Bonta said. “This is unacceptable, and more importantly, absolutely illegal. California families were already struggling with the high cost of housing before the pandemic, and these past two years have already made things worse.” Attorney General Bonta said the Housing Strike Force is investigating these claims and his office will take any necessary action. Attorney General Bonta launched the Housing Strike Force in November, under the California Department of Justice umbrella. Already, California’s $5.5 billion COVID-19 Rent Relief program has helped more than 220,000 lowincome households, according to the Governor’s Office. Advocates, during a recent local League of Women Voters forum, said more affordable housing options are needed in the Santa Barbara area for low- to moderateincome residents as well as greater protections for renters. Stanley Tzankov, co-founder of the Santa Barbara Tenants Union and CAUSE (Central Coast Alliance United for a Sustainable Economy), said landlords have an incentive to remove current tenants in order to re-list their properties at a higher price. Because of this, and the highcost market in general, renters are afraid to voice concerns or maintenance requests to landlords because they do not want to lose their current housing, Mr. Tzankov said. Of Thursday’s historic moment of being the first woman to sign a law in California’s history, Lt. Gov. Kounalakis said, “I remain more determined than ever to ensure that while I may be the first to do so, I will certainly not be the last.” email: kschallhorn@newspress. com

House Republicans open new probe into Twitter, Facebook suppressing Hunter Biden laptop story By SOPHIE MANN JUST THE NEWS

(Provided by The Center Square) — Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee on Thursday announced a new investigation into Facebook and Twitter trying to suppress initial reporting in October 2020 about Hunter Biden’s laptop. In recent days, mainstream media outlets including the New York Times and Washington Post have confirmed the legitimacy of the laptop and its contents, which were initially reported on by the New York Post in the days leading up to the 2020 presidential

election. At the time, Facebook and Twitter suppressed the Post’s article detailing how Hunter Biden appeared to use his father’s position and influence for his and his family’s financial gain. The committee said they will conduct a thorough investigation into social media giants Facebook and Twitter actions to “interfere in free and fair election-related public discourse” on their platforms that worked “to the benefit of President (Joe) Biden and the detriment of former President (Donald) Trump,” according to letters sent to both companies.

(The Center Square) — President Joe Biden announced he would release 180 million barrels of oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve over the next six months in an attempt to stabilize rising costs, but critics question how much the move will help Americans who are struggling to pay for the price at the pump. “After consultation with allies and partners, the president will announce the largest release of oil reserves in history, putting one million additional barrels on the market per day on average — every day — for the next six months,” the White House said in a statement. “The scale of this release is unprecedented: The world has never had a release of oil reserves at this 1 million per day rate for this length of time. This record release will provide a historic amount of supply to serve as a bridge until the end of the year when domestic production ramps up.” Critics say President Biden’s plan is too little, too late. They point to Mr. Biden’s domestic energy policies, arguing the president has slowed oil production since taking office and made the U.S. more reliant on foreign sources of oil. President Biden drew criticism earlier in his administration for calling on OPEC to produce more oil to lower U.S. prices after he halted new leases for oil production on federal lands, stopped construction of the Keystone Pipeline and placed new regulations on the industry. “Laughably, President Biden is set to announce the release of up to 180 million barrels of oil from our strategic reserves to counter surging energy costs,” said Joel Griffith, a policy expert at the Heritage Foundation. “But this is under 10 days’ worth of daily U.S. oil use. Meanwhile, this administration’s ‘war on energy’ continues — by including shuttering pipelines, closing

off swathes of the nation to drilling, and even threatening oil executives with prison for providing the gasoline American business and families depend on.” President Biden, though, has argued the most recent surge in prices is Russia’s fault. Mr. Biden recently announced a ban on Russian oil imports, which account for a small fraction of U.S. consumption. The White House said the Department of Energy will restock the reserve supply, which has roughly 600 million barrels, over the coming years. “This will provide a signal of future demand and help encourage domestic production today, and will ensure the continued readiness of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to respond to future emergencies,” the White House said. “President Biden is coordinating this action with allies and partners around

the world, and other countries are expected to join in this action, bringing the total release to well over an average 1 million barrels per day.” According to the American Automobile Association, the national gas price average is $4.23 per gallon, a major hike compared to the $2.73 per gallon average from the same time last year. California has consistently stayed above the national average. On Thursday, AAA reported the state’s average was $5.90 per gallon. In Santa Barbara County on Thursday, the average was $5.97 a gallon. Neighboring counties were higher. Ventura County’s average on Thursday was $6.03 a gallon, and San Luis Obispo County saw an average of $6.07 a gallon, according to AAA. Critics argue President Biden’s oil reserve plan is a short-term solution that will not solve the

nation’s bigger energy problems. “The Biden team is so beholden to the radical green groups they cannot advocate for the only real, long term solution to high energy prices: production increases,” said Daniel Turner, head of Power the Future, an energy workers advocacy group. “Releasing strategic reserves has not done anything the two times Biden already tried it, but he’s doing it again because that’s what you get from someone who has been in D.C. for six decades: rinse and repeat. “Tapping into the strategic oil reserves for economic relief is like printing more money to fight inflation: Government created problems with government officials calling for more government. There’s never a vision to find a solution. They’re only Band-Aids.” Casey Harper works at The Center Square’s Washington, D.C., bureau.

San Marcos beats Santa Barbara, Dos Pueblos in track By KATHERINE ZEHNDER NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

The San Marcos track team defeated crosstown rivals Santa Barbara and Dos Pueblos high schools Wednesday. The Royals girls varsity beat the Dons 99-36, and the Royals boys varsity defeated the Dons 92-43. The Royals girls varsity beat the Chargers 10321, and the Royals boys varsity beat the Chargers 101-30. “There were some great races on the track and field today,” Coach Marilyn Hantgin told the News-Press in an email. “Jacob Snodgress won the 800 with 1:56.19 and (placed) second in the 1600 with 4:24.11 and was on our winning 4 x 400 team along with Justin Hess, Julian Hicks and Jonas Strand. We ran a season best of 3:24.74. This is a very fast time for this time of the year. “I am so proud of these boys,” Hantgin said. “They ran their hearts out all day. Julian won the open 400 with a personal best of 51.80. Justin won the 200 in 22.91 and anchored both our winning relay teams. He got second in the 100. Justin does not typically run the 100, but he wanted to

compete with the competition in this meet. “Ethan Dwelley won the 3200 with 10:01.71, his first time running it this season. Ethan was so impressive today. What a race, and I think he was surprised how well he did. I wasn’t surprised. Ethan is a very dedicated runner that works very hard,” Hantgin said. “Lucas Chin won the 110 hurdles, high jump, triple jump and was second in the long jump. Lucas is very talented,” Hantgin said. “He has been battling injuries all season. I am really happy he was able to compete today. It was great seeing him excel in his events.” The Royals girls team dominated with Makenzie Fauver winning the 100 hurdles, 300 hurdles, placing second in the triple jump and succeeding on the winning 400 relay team. Ava Carter won the 100 and 200 and was on both winning relay teams. “Kiala Haas and Celina Zambrano did a great job in the 800, 1600 and on the 4 x 400 relay team,” Hantgin said. “These girls are so important to our program. They can run so many different races, I am so lucky to have them on our team. Both of our girls relay teams ran personal best of the season — 50.05 (Ava Carter, Makenzie

Fauver, Ajha Dennis, and Ava Arriaga) and 4:11.22 (Ava Carter, Celina Zambrano, Kiala Haas and Stella Crawford).” SANTA BARBARA DONS VARSITY BEAT LOMPOC 5-2 The Santa Barbara Dons Varsity baseball team beat Lompoc 5-2 Wednesday.

UCSB men’s volleyball team defeats UC Irvine By MICHAEL JORGENSON UCSB SPORTS WRITER

IRVINE — The No. 6 UCSB men’s volleyball team got back to its winning ways on Wednesday night at No. 14 UC Irvine, hitting over .400 as a team for the second time against a ranked opponent this year to beat the Anteaters in four, 25-19, 25-18, 26-26, 25-22. For the third time this season, three Gauchos reached doublefigure kills, led by opposite Haotian Xia’s 16 (.364). It was the secondhighest total of the year for the junior. Also tying his second-best kill total of 2022 was sophomore middle blocker Donovan Todorov with 10 (.500) to go along with a matchhigh six blocks. Junior hitter Ryan Wilcox finished with 14 kills and had six digs, tying Patrick Paragas and Max Gordon for team-high honors.

The Gauchos’ (15-6, 4-2) efficient team hitting percentage of .409 was thanks in large part to a careernight from sophomore setter Patrick Paragas, who averaged the most assists per set (12.0) of his career for a match-best 48 helpers. Junior middle blocker Brandon Hicks had a huge all-around night, going 7-for-9 (.778) on kill attempts for one of his most efficient hitting nights ever. He also tied a seasonhigh with three aces and added four digs and three blocks. FIRST SET, 25-19 UCSB The Gauchos never trailed in set one, using a 4-0 run bookended by kills from Xia and Wilcox to go up 10-5. UCSB continued gaining separation before Hicks put away his first ace of the night to make it 21-13, giving the Gauchos their largest lead of the night. A late 3-0 UCI spurt came to an

end on an Anteater service error to end the set. SECOND SET, 25-18 UCSB UCI (8-12, 1-4) would take a twopoint lead early in set two before the Gauchos turned the tables. They went up 12-9 after back-to-back kills from Wilcox and Todorov capped a 6-2 run. The Gauchos had their highest hitting percentage (.522) of the night while holding the Anteaters to their lowest (.143). UCSB also enjoyed a 3-0 block advantage, the last of which came from Hicks and Dayne Chalmers on the final point to give UCSB its largest lead of the set, 25-18. THIRD SET, 28-26 UCI Xia and Wilcox combined for nine kills as they did in the opening set. However, UCI’s Francesco Sani had eight of his own as the home side overcame a 20-16 Gaucho lead.

FOURTH SET, 25-22 UCSB UCSB put things away with a strong defensive set four, holding UCI to a .188 hitting percentage while the offense posted a .353 clip. For the second time in the match, the Gauchos never trailed. Xia was on fire throughout, tallying six kills on a .500 mark. Wilcox had four of his five blocks as UCSB recorded more than half of its 11 blocks for the night with six in the final set alone. Todorov also went for three blocks and three kills. He, Wilcox and Xia combined for the final stuff to clinch the win, 25-22. The Gauchos and Anteaters will play for a second time this Friday at 7 p.m. at UCSB’s Rob Gym. Michael Jorgenson writes about sports for UCSB.

“We’re taking into account future population growth. We’re preserving the core of existing districts, and I think we’re there.” Both judges Abraham Khan and Melinda Johnson, the chair of the commission, agreed and voted in favor of the map — making it a unanimous decision. Councilmember Kristen Sneddon praised the commission during Wednesday’s meeting, noting the daunting task the three had to undertake. “I think you have pulled off the impossible. You’ve listened to the community, you’ve made adjustments at every meeting, you’ve kept neighborhoods together,” Councilmember Sneddon said. “Really in a city where you might not have been that familiar, you’ve become so familiar and listened to our concerns.” The map will be recommended to the city clerk, who will put it before the city council.

supplies, bringing clothes.” The need is overwhelming, Mr. Snitskiy said. So he approached it just one family at a time. “I cannot solve it myself. I don’t think there’s one person who can solve it,” he said of the crisis. “But if you can do maybe one thing for one family, that will be more than doing nothing. (The need) will not stop until the war stops. The need is going to always be there.” Mr. Snitskiy, 42, works as a caregiver in Santa Barbara, but he’s cut back on that job a bit to act as a consultant for Ukrainians who want to immigrate to the U.S. He’s familiar with the process, since he immigrated not so long ago, and is helping with everything from paperwork to advice. He plans to go back to Poland in the near future, but in the meantime, he is raising money for gas as volunteers transport refugees out of Ukraine. He recently started a GoFundMe account, which can be found here: gofundme.com/f/2022helping-ukrainian-refugees.

But Mr. Snitskiy is also encouraging people who want to help simply to check in on their friends or neighbors who are Ukrainian. “Just support them, tell them you support them, that you’re there to talk to them,” he said. “If you can help, please do.” As he was headed to Los Angeles International Airport to go to Poland a few weeks ago, a bus driver noticed his bags, which were marked as carrying aid to Ukraine. The driver got on the intercom to convey his mundane safety and route message but continued on to say: “We have a man on our bus traveling to help those in Ukraine. All of the tips you give me today on this ride will be given to him to continue to help those in need.” “It was a personal touch and a personal reaction to what’s going on,” Mr. Snitskiy said, recalling the emotion he felt because of this stranger’s generosity. Those interested in finding out more ways to help can contact Mr. Snitskiy at youcanhelp2022@ gmail.com.

The department’s citations were for various vehicle code violations where bicyclists or pedestrians made unsafe choices and the drivers were issued citations for infractions that were unsafe to bicycles or pedestrians. The operation took place within the Goleta city limits during a fourhour operation period. A total of 27 persons was contacted. “Safety is a shared responsibility, with drivers holding the greatest responsibility to keep other road users safe. We hope this operation serves as a

Injury collision involves motorcyclist SANTA BARBARA — The Santa Barbara Combined Communications Center received a report of a serious injury collision that occurred Wednesday between a motorcycle and a white Lexus

SUV at the intersection of Hutash and South Voluntario streets. The call came around 4:45 p.m. Officers, paramedics, and fire department personnel were dispatched to the scene. The motorcyclist appeared to have sustained serious injuries and was transported to Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital Emergency Department for treatment. Due to the seriousness of the collision, the Critical Accident Reconstruction Team responded to investigate this incident further. At this time, the cause of the collision is unknown, and DUI does not seem to be a factor, according to Sgt. Ethan Ragsdale of the Santa Barbara Police Department. — Katherine Zehnder

At Hearts Alive Village in Las Vegas, a special needs kitten shows that all animals can be loving pets even with some shortcomings. Jamie discusses Animal Reiki. We explore how energy can help the pet and the person by sitting quietly with one’s pet, meditating and letting them know you appreciate them. It can build lasting bonds. At Kendall’s Kupboard, a part of Hearts Alive Village, we learn from Julio how their food distribution donations work for families with pets in need. The goal is to help families from having to relinquish their pets because of financial burdens. The amazing adventures of Scooby, the dog, are revealed. It started as a family visit to Las Vegas, and Scooby escaped from the backyard where the family was staying and disappeared. After days of searching the neighborhood, the animal shelters and sanctuaries, the family had to return home without their beloved pet. A year and a half later, Hearts Alive Village in Las Vegas rescued the homeless dog from the County shelter. He instantly won over everyone’s heart with his bubbly personality and adorable manners. They checked him for a microchip and discovered that he had a family who lived thousands of miles away in Minnesota. For the full story, tune in this weekend to AnimalZone and watch how Scooby became lucky while lost in Las Vegas.

CROSSWORD PUZZLE

© 2022 Tribune Content Agency, LLC.

INSTRUCTIONS Fill in the grid so every row, every column and every 3-by-3 grid contains the digits 1 through 9. that means that no number is repeated in any row, column or box. Sudoku puzzles appear on the Diversions page Monday-Saturday and on the crossword solutions page in Sunday’s Life section.

/ . < 6 7 +

Every number in the codeword grid is ‘code’ for a letter of the alphabet. Thus, the number 2 may correspond to the letter L, for instance. All puzzles come with a few letters to start. Your first move should be to enter these letters in the puzzle grid. If the letter S is in the box at the bottom of the page underneath the number 2, your first move should be to find all cells numbered 2 in the grid and enter the letter S. Cross the letter S off the list at the bottom of the grid. Remember that at the end you should have a different letter of the alphabet in each of the numbered boxes 1- 26, and a word in English in each of the horizontal and vertical runs on the codeword grid.

thinking some bizarre thoughts today, Libra. They might lead you in a direction that doesn’t quite pertain to your current situation. Don’t be afraid to explore these strange realms, because they could give you some important insight that you wouldn’t have realized otherwise. SCORPIO — Your thinking is solid and clear today, Scorpio, but other people could challenge your mental power. Don’t let others put seeds of doubt in your head about the way you approach a problem. Keep your mind open to alternative solutions, but don’t beat yourself up for your current mental track. SAGITTARIUS — You could get the feeling that something is wrong today when it isn’t, Sagittarius. It’s probably just your perspective that needs some adjusting. Pull out your binoculars and focus a bit more so you can stand back yet have the power to examine the details closely. Don’t automatically assume there’s a clear distinction between right and wrong. CAPRICORN — Your sensitive nature is likely to pick up a disturbance in your thinking today, Capricorn. Suddenly, a blast of unexpected information could come your way and throw a monkey wrench in your mental process. Try not to get thrown off balance by the sudden jolt. You’ll find that you can incorporate some of this new knowledge in a way that gives you a greater advantage. AQUARIUS — You might experience some mental distractions that pull you in different directions today, Aquarius. There could be a stubborn internal/external battle brewing. Realize that being in the middle is to your advantage. Look at the situation as a way to learn something about yourself and others. Understanding your opposition’s viewpoint will help you. PISCES — It could be difficult for you to think straight today, Pisces. Your brain is probably working in short, erratic bursts that keep you guessing about which way to proceed. Avoid confusion during the day by periodically centering and separating yourself and your feelings from the drama around you. Don’t pretend you understand something if you don’t.

Now arrange the circled letters to form the surprise answer, as suggested by the above cartoon.

-

HOROSCOPE ARIES — Freedom is a key aspect of life today, Aries. You might find that your brain wants to break free and pursue more independent ways of thinking. Don’t worry if such ways of thinking lead you into unknown territory. This is a sign that this is probably where you need to be. TAURUS — People are apt to be as stubborn as you in their thinking today, Taurus. This could be a recipe for disaster if you aren’t careful. Open the floodgates a bit wider and take in more of the opinions of others. Don’t automatically assume that other people have to conform to your viewpoint to resolve an issue. GEMINI — You could find yourself staring at a stranger for just one extra second as you pass on the street today, Gemini. Your tendency toward the new and bizarre is stronger than usual, and you’re being pulled into different mental directions. Go ahead and introduce yourself to that stranger. Perhaps he or she will become a business partner or new best friend. CANCER — As you work slowly and steadily toward your goals, realize that there are apt to be unexpected obstacles along the way, Cancer. You can’t possibly plan for everything, so don’t get discouraged today when some crazy variable pops out of nowhere. Your mental process may be thrown for a loop, and you might find that you go into a frenzy. LEO — It’s generally quite clear that you aren’t afraid to tell people what you think, Leo. Maybe it’s time to be more expressive about how you feel. It could be that your mental process is a bit off today, jolted by an unexpected situation or person. Make sure you incorporate some of your instincts and emotions into your reaction to the situation. VIRGO — Today could be filled with unexpected twists, turns, and bends in the road that you may not be prepared for, Virgo. Apparently someone forgot to install the sign that warns of sharp curves ahead. Be on the lookout for unexpected forks in the road. When you get to them, take them, to coin a phrase. LIBRA — You could be

This may affect your property. Please read. Notice is hereby given that an application for the project described below has been submitted to the Santa Barbara County Planning and Development Department. This project requires the approval and issuance of a Coastal Development Permit by the Planning and Development Department.

PUBLIC NOTICE City of Santa Barbara NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the City Council of the City of Santa Barbara will conduct a Public Hearing on Tuesday, April 12, 2022, during the afternoon session of the meeting which begins at 2:00 p.m. in the Council Chamber, City Hall, 735 Anacapa Street, Santa Barbara. The hearing is to consider a request for designation as a Community Benefit Project pursuant to Santa Barbara Municipal Code Chapter 30.170 and an allocation of 1,614 square feet (net) from the Nonresidential Growth Management Program’s Community Benefit category, for the Cancer Center of Santa Barbara located at 540 W. Pueblo Street (APN 025-090-048). The square footage allocation would allow expansion of the linear accelerator treatment area. The 3.3-acre site is zoned O-M (Office Medical) and has a General Plan land use designation of Office-Medium Density Residential. Public comment may be given in person at the meeting or remotely via zoom.

The development requested by this application is subject to appeal to the California Coastal Commission following final action by Santa Barbara County and therefore a public hearing on the application is normally required prior to any action to approve, conditionally approve or deny the application. However, in compliance with California Coastal Act Section 30624.9, the Director has determined that this project qualifies as minor development and therefore intends to waive the public hearing requirement unless a written request for such hearing is submitted by an interested party to the Planning and Development Department within the 15 working days following the Date of Notice listed below. All requests for a hearing must be submitted no later than 5:00 p.m. on the Request for Hearing Expiration Date listed below, to Kevin De Los Santos at Planning and Development, 123 E. Anapamu Street, Santa Barbara 93101-2058, by email at santosk@countyofsb. org, or by fax at (805) 568-2030. If a public hearing is requested, notice of such a hearing will be provided. WARNING: Failure by a person to request a public hearing may result in the loss of the person’s ability to appeal any action taken by Santa Barbara County on this Coastal Development Permit to the County Planning Commission or Board of Supervisors and ultimately the California Coastal Commission.

On Thursday, April 7, 2022 an Agenda with all items to be heard on Tuesday, April 12, 2022, will be available at 735 Anacapa Street and at the Central Library. Agendas and Staff Reports are also accessible online at www.santabarbaraca.gov; under Most Popular, click on Council Agenda Packet.

Each televised Council meeting is closed captioned for the hearing impaired. These meetings can also be viewed over the Internet at www.SantaBarbaraCA.gov/CouncilVideos.

If a request for public hearing is not received by 5:00 p.m. on the Request for Hearing Expiration Date listed below, then the Planning and Development Department will act to approve, approve with conditions, or deny the request for a Coastal Development Permit. At this time it is not known when this action may occur; however, this may be the only notice you receive for this project.
