Plaza’s next chapter Officials consider removing turf and giving De la Guerra Plaza a hardscape

Attorney general investigates ExxonMobil for plastic pollution By KAITLYN SCHALLHORN NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Attorney General Rob Bonta announced a first-of-its-kind investigation into fossil fuel and petrochemical industries for alleged deceptive practices regarding plastic use. And he’s starting with ExxonMobil. With ocean waves cascading behind him, the California attorney general announced his new initiative Thursday from Dockweiler Beach in Los Angeles near a Chevron refinery. He said people have been “aggressively deceived by some of the largest and most influential corporations” on plastic pollution. “In California and across the globe, we are seeing the catastrophic results of the fossil fuel industry’s decadeslong campaign of deception,” Attorney General Bonta said. “Plastic pollution is seeping into

Grass has stood for nearly a century on De la Guerra Plaza, but Santa Barbara officials say it’s time for the turf to go and give the plaza a new look.

By KAITLYN SCHALLHORN NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Officials are beginning to come to a consensus on reimagining De la Guerra Plaza. The Historic Landmarks Commission and the De la Guerra Plaza Advisory Committee recently met to continue to lay the groundwork on specific design elements and features for the plaza adjacent to Santa Barbara City Hall. “The plaza is functioning more as a back-of-house for trash and recycling and an inadequate parking lot. But it’s not a park,” Brad Hess, Santa Barbara’s principal project manager, said. “I guarantee that when people say, ‘I’m going off to the park,’ they’re not referring to this plaza.” “We have beautiful parks in this city, but really the quest for this project and the advisory committee is to create a beautiful civic plaza that functions really well, that’s appropriate for the setting, that is historic and that can facilitate activities year-round that honestly cannot happen in the current condition and configuration of the plaza,” Mr. Hess said. “We see so much more for this space.” The idea is to flatten the plaza, making it more level and accessible to visitors. Foliage, restrooms, a pavilion and a bubbler have been suggested as elements for the plaza. “Preservation projects, when they work well, provide continuity between the past and the present,” said Dr. Anne Peterson, a member of the advisory committee and executive director of the Santa Barbara Trust for Historic Preservation. “They help bring an important historic resource into the present so it can be used again and loved again by the community. And that requires that it changes.” Although it has caused Please see PLAZA on A4

Groundbreaking on the new Michael Towbes Library Plaza will take place next week. The groundbreaking at the Santa Barbara Public Library, 40 E. Anapamu St., will commence at 11 a.m. Wednesday with light refreshments, speakers and an official shovel ceremony. The Central Library event is expected to conclude around 12:15 p.m. The Michael Towbes Library Plaza is touted as an effort to provide an attractive, accessible and safe outdoor space at the library, which can be used to expand literacy and cultural programs. It will host book, career, college and volunteer fairs; new citizen celebrations; GED graduations; and other

activities for children such as puppet shows and science experiments, according to the Santa Barbara Public Library Foundation. The plaza is a public-private partnership between the city and the Santa Barbara Public Library Foundation. Santa Barbara has contributed more than $1.6 million to the effort, the foundation said. The plaza is designed to be low-maintenance and droughttolerant, and the foundation is creating an endowment fund for care. Additionally, the library will prohibit loitering on the grounds, and the plaza will be designed to be flat and open to discourage vagrancy, according to the foundation. email: kschallhorn@newspress.com

DOS PUEBLOS SOFTBALL TEAM WINS OVER CABRILLO The Dos Pueblos softball team overpowered Cabrillo on Wednesday, winning 9-3. Dos Pueblos laced five doubles among its 11 hits in the road win, with Summer McCeney going 24 with a double and four RBIs while Bella Nuno went 3-5 with two doubles, Jessica Reveles contributed a double and two RBIs and Lacy Spear drove in two runs. Pitching duties were split between Nuno and Kaitlyn Ashby, with the former allowing only one hit over four innings of work and the latter surrendering only a single earned run over three innings. “The team played really well today,” said Coach Mike Gerken. “Bella and Kaitlyn did an outstanding job shutting down their offense. Bella’s velocity was really good. Kaitlyn threw well and was able to use the changeup to keep Cabrillo off balance, getting three come-backers in her 3 innings. When they did put some pressure on us, the defense came through.” Dos Pueblos ends the regular season with a league record of 141 and an overall record of 21-5.

It was senior night for San Marcos, and the Royals played sky high in a 19-0 shut out Wednesday of cross-town rival Santa Barbara in a Channel League game at Warkentin Stadium. Sophomore goalie Megan Taylor of San Marcos got her first shutout, a rare occurrence in lacrosse, needing only one save as San Marcos outshot the Dons 28-1. “We played a solid game, start to finish, and our skill level showed plus our defense really stepped up whenever Santa Barbara had the ball,” said San Marcos head coach Paul Ramsey. San Marcos senior Emma Neal led all scorers with five goals and was one of eight Royals to score in the game. Seniors Alessia Lala and Sofia Martinez-Tomatis and junior KC Springer each scored three goals. “When we got partway through the second half and saw that we were in the hunt for the shutout, our game plan became to take care of the ball and shut them out that way, and the girls really responded to truly close out the game,” added Ramsey. San Marcos improved to 136 overall and 7-3 in the Channel League. The Royals await word about CIF-SS seeds and brackets for the postseason in the program’s highest Channel League finish ever. The Royals are tied for second with Cate School pending the outcome of Thacher at Cate on Thursday. (The results weren’t known at press time.) A Cate win leaves the tie in place, and a Thacher win gives San Marcos second place outright.

Roman Christou had a hat trick along with seven ground balls in the matchup, while Gus Miller put up five goals and seven ground balls and Daniel Finneran put up a career best four goals. Salem Bawaneh contributed 11 saves to help secure the win, while Cal Denier won 17 out of 22 face offs. With the win, Dos Pueblos improves to 2-8 in league play with an overall record of 5-10.

and Orquiola. San Marcos had a good meet at the finals, advancing quite a number of athletes to the CIF prelims. Justin Hess won both the 400m and 200m events, along with contributing to a win in the 4x400m along with Julian Hicks, Jonas Strand and Jacob Snodgress. Snodgress also won the mile and the 800m, while Lucas Chin won the triple jump and finished second in the long jump.

I wish I had five more Kate’s on my team. She is competitive and truly a winner.” Fauver won the 300m hurdles and finished second in the 100m hurdles, freshman Bailey Bingham was second in the 1600m, and Kiala Haas and Celina Zambrano finished second and third, respectively, in the 800m. “So many proud coaching moments today,” said Hantgin. “I really love my team.

Track and field teams from local high schools competed in the Channel League Finals on Wednesday, with a number of competitors advancing to the CIF Division II Preliminaries. For Santa Barbara High, the girls 4x400m team of Laila Goodman, Olivia Gaspar, Naiya Molitor and Mackenna Show ran their fastest race of the season to take home a win and qualify for the prelims, with Show and Goodman also individually qualifying in the 400m with second and third place finishes, respectively. “This group really put it together the last two meets,” said Coach Olivia Perdices. “We’ve gone through a lot of different lineups on this team, so it’s good to see them wrap up league on a high note.” Also qualifying for the girls team were Katherine Hedrick, who ran a lifetime best time to win the 100 hurdles and qualified second in the 300 hurdles, Krystal Valdez with a second place finish in the discus and Gianna Stump with a third place finish in the triple jump.

He also helped bring home a second place finish in the 4x400m along with Cason Goodman, Blaise Snow and Blaise Winston. “That long jump for Davis was clutch and the boys in the relay put together a nice race,” said

Perdices. “Winston and Goodman are both just getting back to racing, and Snow and Flanagin had a lot of work on the day, so there’s room for all of them to run faster.” Jaoquin Greenberg and Jack Ransdell also brought home victories for the Dons, winning the 110m hurdles and the 300m hurdles, respectively. “Those two boys have been working hard to dial those races in, and it’s gratifying to see them take home championships,” Perdices said of the pair.

Westmont baseball GSAC co-champions By RON SMITH WESTMONT SPORTS WRITER

For the first time since 2016, #6 Westmont Baseball (40-9, 24-8) has won a Golden State Athletic Conference title. With a 10-7 win over #9 Vanguard (42-11, 23-9), the Warriors have claimed a Co-GSAC Regular Season Championship with #15 Hope International (3713, 24-8). Today’s game was the completion of a game from last Saturday. In the fourth inning of that game, Westmont protested a decision by the umpires to allow a run to score, even though time had been called. The Warriors’ protest was upheld and the game was resumed today from the point of the protest. What was expected to be a contest of a little over five innings, instead went into the 13th inning and took four hours and five minutes to play. The game was resumed with one out and Vanguard at bat in the bottom of the fourth with a man on second. No runs were scored in the fourth, sending the game to the top of the fifth. Westmont broke the 0-0 stalemate with three runs in the top of the fifth. After Robbie Haw reached on a one-out single to left, he advanced to second when Paul Mezurashi took advantage of a Vanguard miscue. Both runners moved up one base on a wild pitch. Then, with two away, another wild pitch allowed Haw to score and Mezurashi to take third. After Brady Renck walked, Simon Reid singled through the right side to drive in Mezurashi. A throwing error on the play allowed Renck not only to reach third, but also to score. Westmont’s advantage would not last long, however, as the Lions put up five runs in the bottom of the sixth. Chad Sutton delivered a two-run home run to left field and Matthew Land drove a three-RBI double down the right field line. Vanguard took the resulting 5-3 lead into the ninth inning before Westmont’s offense came alive again. Mezurashi was hit by a pitch to lead off the inning, then reached third when Ryan Desaegher doubled down the left field line. Renck produced an RBI on a ground out to short that scored Mezurashi and advanced Desaegher to third. One out later, Thomas

Rudinsky doubled to left, driving in Desaegher. After Josh Rego was intentionally walked, Rudinsky advanced to third on a wild pitch before scoring on another wild pitch. That gave Westmont a 6-5 advantage headed into the bottom of the ninth with Robbie Haw coming into the game to pitch. A lead-off double by Land resulted in a run when Travis Aversa singled to left center to tie the game at six runs each and send the game into extra innings. After neither team scored in the 10th inning, Simon Reid produced a one-out solo home run to right center field in the top of the 11th. However, Joe Johnson answered with his own solo home run to right off of Gabe Arteaga to tie the game at seven. The score remained tied after the completion of the 12th inning, before Westmont notched three runs in the 13th. With one away, Reid was walked and was replaced on the base pads by Jack Fletcher. Fletcher reached second on a wild pitch and went to third when Rudinsky took ball four on a pitch in the dirt. Rego was then intentionally walked to load the bases. The first run came when Patrick O’Neil hit a sacrifice fly to right field that also moved Rudinsky to third. When Rego tried to steal second, Vanguard’s pitcher balked, resulting in Rudinsky scoring and Rego awarded second base. Then Arteaga, who had to bat because the designated hitter had been abandoned by Westmont, singled to center field, driving in Rego. Arteaga went back on the mound with a three-run lead in the bottom of the 13th inning. With runners on the corners and two away, Arteaga got Dane Nakatsuka to fly out to left field, ending the game with a Warrior victory. With the win, Westmont will enter next week’s GSAC Tournament as the number two seed. On Monday, the Warriors will begin postseason play by taking on the fifth-seeded Mustangs of The Master’s (29-22, 15-17) beginning at 10:00 a.m. Ron Smith is the sports information director at Westmont College. email: sports@newspress.com

Foodbank hosts emergency response training this weekend By KATHERINE ZEHNDER NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Starting today and running through Sunday, the Foodbank of Santa Barbara County is hosting a weekend intensive training to train volunteers for the Community Emergency Response Team. “The training program is a 21-hour course that is FEMAcertified,” Anthony Rodriguez, the Foodbank’s operations and disaster services specialist, told the News-Press Thursday about the training in the Santa Barbara area. “The Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) program is a nationally supported, locally implemented initiative that teaches people how to better prepare themselves for hazards that may affect their communities,” according to FEMA. “Since 1993, CERT has trained the public in basic disaster response skills such as team organization, disaster medical operations, fire safety, and light search and rescue. The ability for CERT volunteers to perform these activities frees up professional responders to focus their efforts on more complex, essential, and critical tasks.” Mr. Rodriguez said CERT training helps community members be able to respond during a disaster. “The training is recognized throughout the world,” he told the News-Press. “It started in 1985 in L.A.” Proper training is important to avoid injuring yourself, Mr. Rodriguez noted. “About 100 people were lost in the Mexico earthquake because they weren’t properly trained.” CERT Training is a nine-unit course covering topics such as disaster preparedness, CERT organization, disaster medical operations, disaster psychology,

CERT Training covers topics such as disaster preparedness, CERT organization, disaster medical operations, disaster psychology, fire safety and utility controls, a light search and rescue operation, and terrorism. fire safety and utility controls, a light search and rescue operation, and terrorism. The training includes how to prepare for mental trauma during a disaster. “You have to think about mental and physical (aspects) and be prepared in both ways to get through a disaster,” said Mr. Rodriguez. The CERT training also includes triage work and the first responders’ tagging system for victims: green (walking and wounded), yellow (delayed), red (immediate) and black (deceased). The training’s final exam is a simulated disaster. “The simulation is that we will be at the foodbank warehouse doing a check, and giving the trainees a tour and there are people in a different building. And then there is a large earthquake, someone comes screaming, and there are people trapped,” Mr. Rodriguez said. The training will end with a graduation ceremony at 3:30 p.m. Sunday at the Foodbank’s new warehouse at 80-82 Coromar Drive in Goleta. email: kzehnder@newspress.com

‘Grease’ to open tonight at Pioneer Valley High School By KATHERINE ZEHNDER NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Broadway’s Laura Osnes will join students from the Santa Maria Joint Union High School District on the opening night of “Grease.” The rock comedy will run tonight through May 7 at Pioneer Valley High School amphitheater, 675 Panther Drive, Santa Maria. The curtain will rise at 5:30 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays and 12:30 p.m. Sunday. The May 7 performance will be adapted for the hearing impaired. Tonight’s the only night Ms. Osnes will perform. But all of the shows will feature students from Pioneer Valley, Righetti High School and Santa Maria High School. Set in the 1950s, “Grease” features working-class teenagers at a fictional high school as they navigate the complexities of peer pressure, gossip, politics, personal core values and love. “The best part of this so far has been being able to act, dance and see everyone do the entire play all the way through for the first time,’’ said Pioneer Valley junior Angelina Rocha, who plays Sonny.

Students from schools throughout the Santa Maria Joint Union High School District will perform the Broadway classic “Grease,” tonight through May 7 at Pioneer Valley High School.

“The most exciting for me so far is probably Act One, Scene Five, because that’s where the number ‘Grease Lighting’ is, and there is a lot of song and movement,’’ said Pioneer Valley senior Brian Solar, who plays Kenickie.

“The hardest dance number to learn was ‘Grease Lighting’ because there’s a lot of going up and down the steps and we all have to work together,’’ said Righetti senior Riccardo Sanchez, who plays Roger.

“My favorite song in the production is ‘Grease Lighting.’ I also have a solo and that is always exciting,’’ said Pioneer Valley senior Hunter McCormick, who plays Dood. Principal Shanda Herrera said the show should not be missed. “I’m looking forward to our students seeing this classic story about teenage relationship challenges,” she said in a news release. “The staff and cast have been putting in countless hours to get the costumes, background sets and dance numbers just right. This is really going to be an exceptional show, and I hope that everyone has a chance to see it. “There are also a few surprises in store for viewers,” Ms. Herrera said. Tickets for tonight’s show with the Broadway actress costs $25 for general admission, $15 for students and $50 for front row VIP seats, which come with a merchandise bag. After tonight, prices are $5 less in all categories. To purchase, go to www. onthestage.tickets/show/pioneervalley-high-school/grease-60736. email: kzehnder@newspress.com

Bonta says other companies could be targeted next PLASTIC

Continued from Page A1 purposely deceiving the public about the ability of plastic to be recycled. In fact, Mr. Bonta said, only about 9% of plastics are actually recycled. The attorney general said his office has already subpoenaed ExxonMobil to seek information related to its role in plastics pollution and how it allegedly is “deceiving the public.” A representative for ExxonMobil did not immediately respond to the News-Press’ request for comment. Mr. Bonta said other companies could be next, but his office has started with ExxonMobil because it is one of the biggest producers of plastics in the world and “leaders when it comes to deception.” Fossil fuels are used to make plastics. And demand for plastics is outpacing other bulk materials, such as aluminum or cement, and has nearly doubled since 2000, according to a recent International Energy Agency report. The attorney general’s investigation is the first of its kind in the U.S., Mr. Bonta said. The probe will target companies that his office believes to have caused and exacerbated the global plastics pollution crisis. Mr. Bonta and his staff are investigating the businesses’

million annually for cleanup and prevention efforts, Mr. Bonta said. The attorney general also argued plastics impact individuals’ health since they do not break down into smaller pieces called microplastics. Holding up what appeared to be a credit card, Mr. Bonta pointed to studies that said the average person will consume more than 40 pounds of plastic in a lifetime or about a “credit card’s worth” in one week. “We want to solve this problem,” Attorney General Bonta said. “We want clean beaches and clean waterways and clean oceans. We do not want plastics that cannot be recycled to be pushed out further into our communities to hurt and harm our natural resources and our people and their health.” The Goleta City Council recently moved to restrict single-use plastic throughout the city — which put the Goodland into compliance with a recent state sustainability law. But the city is also working to further regulate singleuse plastic through an expanded polystyrene foodware ban, a move already taken by more than 120 jurisdictions across California. “We are excited that the city is taking steps to reduce its plastic waste and the burden of plastic pollution in the community,” Goleta Mayor Paula Perotte said. “We hope this effort will create a more healthy, sustainable Goleta.” email: kschallhorn@newspress.com

Broad support for incorporation of water feature PLAZA

Continued from Page A1 consternation, most representatives in both groups seemingly agreed to remove the turf from the park. A memo from Post/Hazeltine and Associates noted grass was not an original feature of the plaza but was added in 1924 when a new Mediterranean-style City Hall building was constructed. Councilmember Kristen Sneddon, a member of the advisory committee, said she felt nostalgia for the turf — recalling times she visited the park in the 1980s — but suggested climate change has not made it sustainable any longer. “In 1924, the grass went in; 2024 seems like an appropriate time for the grass to go,” Ms. Sneddon said. “It’s not lightly that I’m recommending that we lose the turf. It’s actually with a great deal

of mourning that we are living in times when it’s necessary.” The hardscape renderings presented at the meeting included a variety of potential surface materials, including stones emulating streets in Spain. Anthony Grumbine, chair of the HLC, encouraged further exploration of materials that could be used as well as an examination of costs, longevity and potential heat effect issues. There was a bit of a kerfuffle over the arcade element — including over what to call it. By the end of the April 22 joint meeting, the only consensus seemed to be that the arcade, as presented, wasn’t quite ready. And maybe “pavilion” was a better moniker instead of “arcade.” Already the structure has been pushed further back from the center of the plaza and has been decreased in size.

Marian Fernald Rapp was born in Los Angeles, California on May 13, 1925. She attended schools in Los Angeles and graduated from Dorsey High School. She attended the University of Southern California for two years, and Woodbury College where she graduated. She was employed in the Los Angeles School District for seven years prior to moving to Santa Barbara, CA in 1956. Marian was employed as an Administrative Secretary at Santa Barbara City College for 29 years before retiring. She was employed there for an additional 14 years on a parttime basis after retirement. She leaves behind two nieces and two nephews. Her beloved brothers Bertram (and his wife Anita) and Robert have passed. Marian adored her cat Keiki (deceased), traveling around the world with her friends, and taking in the beautiful Santa Barbara coastal views. Interment will be alongside her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Austin B Fernald, at Rose Hills Memorial Park in Whittier, California.

roles in perpetuating alleged myths about recycling plastic and seek to determine if they have violated the law. “More and more the oil industry is shifting from producing oil and gas in the transportation sector to moving into plastics,” the attorney general told reporters. “They’ve created new plants to do this; they’ve made massive investments to manufacture petrochemicals that become plastics. The plastic market is growing.” Emily Jeffers, an attorney for the Center for Biological Diversity’s Oceans program, said the attorney general’s investigation was an initial step but more efforts to reduce plastic production are needed. “California is taking a crucial step toward holding oil companies responsible for the vast volume of plastic trash that’s contaminating almost every corner of our planet,” Ms. Jeffers said in a statement provided to the NewsPress. “But ultimately the plastics industry is so polluting on so many levels that it just isn’t compatible for preserving crucial ecosystems or a livable climate. We have to stop producing plastic junk and stop building factories that convert fracked natural gas into cheap plastic.” The Attorney General’s Office also launched a new website Thursday (oag.ca.gov/plastics) to highlight the harm plastic pollution has caused in California as well as globally. Plastic pollution costs California about $500

RAPP, Marian Fernald

Mr. Grumbine encouraged the structure to be pushed back even further, so as not to obstruct the view of the plaza from the steps of City Hall, and recommended consideration of an adobe-style design instead. Representatives from both groups were mostly on board with a water feature, now referred to as a bubbler. It would still remain to be decided how exactly the bubbler would work — how it could be activated and for how long — but the current rendering has it pushed to a back corner with water only reaching 12-18 inches high. The idea is to incorporate a pattern with the bubbler, bringing some color to the plaza. Robert Ooley, a member of the HLC, suggested the pattern should include Chumash imagery to elevate their history. Ms. Sneddon, too, was adamant the Chumash should be

represented in the plaza. “We are not done until we honor the Chumash culture in this plaza,” Ms. Sneddon said. “I very heartfelt believe we have healing to do there, and we need to also be appreciating and celebrating our arts. Those elements have not yet been integrated into the plaza as a whole. I don’t believe this project is ready until those two elements are met.” HLC and advisory committee members expressed approval of how the restroom area is designed to be visually unobtrusive. Mr. Hess said his team would work on an update on surface materials, lighting plans and art and culture incorporation possibilities as well as more work on the pavilion. And thus, the balancing act of De la Guerra Plaza’s past and future continues. email: kschallhorn@newspress.com

Valerie Villa, owner of Images by Valerie Photography, finished up months of hard work with a $1,261 donation to benefit the cats and dogs of Santa Barbara Humane. Ms. Villa raised the money during her second annual fundraiser. She started her Pooch Playoffs benefit after she learned about a group of photographers who hosted their own playoffs on a nationwide scale last year. She then mimicked the event in Santa Barbara County to support Santa Barbara Humane. “In the Pooch Playoffs

More than 1,300 votes were cast over the course of two weeks on the website Images by Valerie to select the cutest dog. Asher, a three-year-old terrier mix owned by the Luikart family, won the competition. Pet House, Blenders in the Grass, Santa Barbara Coastal Candles, Scarlett Begonia and Target Santa Barbara were among the local companies that stepped in to help Ms. Villa create swag bags for Asher and the other top-placing dogs in the Pooch Playoffs. All participants received a monthly planner designed by Ms. Villa, featuring images of the 2021 Pooch Playoffs participants. Ms. Villa entered Asher into an international competition of 28 dogs from Pooch Playoffs around the globe with 4,628 votes cast. Overall, photographers raised $43,568 for their respective animal charities. “We were able to come together in a fun way that everyone could

The choreography is by Kassandra Taylor Newberry, and the music is by Thomas Newman and the Junkman. “It’s not quite hip-hop,” Ms. Kobayashi said. “It has hip-hop pacing in it.” Ms. Kobayashi, who trained with Epris Ballet Studio, Elmhurst School for Dance in Britain and Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre’s graduate program, joined State Street Ballet in 2015. Since then, her roles have included parts such as Clara and the Sugar Plum Fairy in “The Nutcracker.” “I’m creating my career in Santa Barbara, trying to stay positive and work hard every day,” Ms. Kobayashi said. “I’ve been really lucky to work with the company. “A lot of the companies like to have the same style, the same height, so the dancers look the same,” the Japanese dancer said.

“Bubbles” will feature a dance company’s approach to ballroom dancing with “champagne music” popularized by Lawrence Welk.

“But with State Street Ballet, everyone’s so different. They’re from different races and different nationalities. That’s really neat. “I feel I can show my personality on stage and not have

to look exactly the same as other dancers,” Ms. Kobayashi said. “Rodney respects the differences among different dancers.” email: dmason@newspress.com

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.

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.

Don’t change your habits for practices that don’t feel right. C LIBRA — Memories and emotions welling up from the past might excite your creative impulses today, Libra. You may not quite be able to understand what all of this means, but the pictures should keep coming to you nonetheless. It might be a good idea to take some notes, even though you might not comprehend all you write. SCORPIO — A subject you’re researching, perhaps for a class or workshop, might prove more difficult than you expected, Scorpio. The resources you consult might be very scholarly and thus difficult to read. If you can’t find anything comprehensible, try to rent or buy a video on the subject. It’s more important to understand the material than force yourself to approach it in the accepted scholarly manner. It’s also important that you enjoy it. SAGITTARIUS — A neighbor or relative might volunteer to help you with some chores around the house, Sagittarius, but you could sense that his or her heart isn’t in it. This person is probably thinking about things and just needs some kind words and a little advice. Just accept that even though you have help, you’ll probably end up doing most of the work yourself. CAPRICORN — Paperwork involving money could be a real drag for you today, Capricorn. You’ll have to get it done, but you’d rather be elsewhere. It might also seem a little confusing. If you get to it early and concentrate, you should finish it quickly and then get on to what you want to do. AQUARIUS — A contract of some kind, perhaps involving the home, might need some careful consideration today, Aquarius. You could find it a little difficult to understand, as it could be full of fine print and legalese. Don’t be afraid to ask someone with a little more savvy to explain what you’re trying to read. PISCES — You might pick up some rather disturbing thoughts from a friend, neighbor, or relative, Pisces. This person could be upset over something and not communicating his or her feelings. It isn’t appropriate to try to coax this person into sharing with you now. They aren’t upset with you, but they might be if you push!

&RQFHSWLV 3X]]OHV 'LVW E\ .LQJ )HDWXUHV 6\QGLFDWH ,QF

HOROSCOPE ARIES — Some gossip about a friend could reach your ears today, Aries, and it might seem a bit shocking at first. Money could be involved. However, don’t accept what you hear at face value. Whoever got the rumor going is apt to be less concerned with the truth than serving a personal agenda. Call your friend and try to learn the facts without prying. TAURUS — Today you might find yourself the center of attention, Taurus. Friends could ask for some information they know you have. It might involve telling a story or giving practical advice. Whatever it is, you might find it difficult to explain without going into some pretty heavy detail. You can do it! GEMINI — Today you might take up some sort of occult study, such as astrology, numerology, or alchemy that seems like Greek to you at first, Gemini. As a result, you could be tempted to abandon it. Don’t! Once you get past the jargon, you’ll probably find it fascinating. Keep a dictionary handy, and don’t worry if you have to go over something several times. CANCER — A friend might be in such a dour mood that you wonder if this is the same person you know and love, Cancer. During the day you might be tempted to try to analyze what’s going on, but this is apt to raise more questions than answers. Probably this is a case of too many problems hitting your friend at once. LEO — A friend or romantic partner might need your advice, Leo, and want to discuss a few things that you don’t really understand. This could concern this person’s job, which involves a lot of technicalities with which you’re unfamiliar. Don’t be afraid to stop occasionally and ask for an explanation. If you’re going to be of any help, you have to have some idea of what this person is talking about. VIRGO — Today you might read a book on exercise or nutrition that seems a bit unsettling, Virgo. According to the book, you’re doing everything wrong! Remember that what the author is probably outlining is a certain practice that worked for him or her. Everyone is different.

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 Modification application by the Planning and Development Department. The development requested by this application is under the jurisdiction of the Zoning Administrator 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 the Santa Barbara Land Use and Development Code Section 35.82.130.D.7, the Director 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.

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 Modification Application to the County Planning Commission or Board of Supervisors. 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 Modification application.

PROPOSAL: SIGLER DECK PROJECT ADDRESS: 750 MONTE DR, SANTA BARBARA, CA 93110 2nd SUPERVISORIAL DISTRICT DATE OF NOTICE: 4/25/2022 REQUEST FOR HEARING EXPIRATION DATE: 5/16/2022 PERMIT NUMBER: 22MOD-00000-00004 APPLICATION FILED: 2/7/2022 ASSESSOR’S PARCEL NO.: 063-045-001 ZONING: 1.5-EX-1 PROJECT AREA: 1.20 PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Applicant: Sigler, Eric M Proposed Project: The proposed project is for a Modification to allow for a new 1,285-square-foot deck to encroach 37 feet into the required 75-foot front setback. The location is proposed due to the main house location and surrounding sloping terrain and oak trees. The project also includes new landscaping and irrigation, a gas firepit and BBQ. The parcel is served by the La Cumbre Mutual Water District, a private septic system, and the County Fire Department. Access is provided off of Monte Drive. The property is a 1.20-acre parcel zoned 1.5-EX-1 and shown as Assessor’s Parcel Number 063045-001, located at 750 Monte Drive in the Eastern Goleta Valley Community Plan area, Second Supervisorial District.

The City of Santa Barbara Community Development Department proposes amendments to the Santa Barbara Municipal Code Title 30 (Inland Zoning Ordinance) related to review of telecommunications facilities and antennas. The proposed amendments would exempt emergency service antennas from discretionary review (as is currently the case in Title 28 (Coastal Zoning Ordinance)) and establish height limits for them, make technical and clean-up amendments to reflect the recent adoption of Chapter 9.170 (e.g. new definitions), and make other non-substantive revisions. The purpose of this hearing is for the Planning Commission to receive public input and consider the proposed amendments to the Inland Zoning Ordinance and forward a recommendation for adoption to City Council. This is a draft of the amendments and the scope of the amendments may change upon review by the Planning Commission, and upon future review by the City Council. Interested parties may follow the changes as they are posted on the web site. The agenda and copies of all documents relating to the item will be posted on the Planning Commission web page at SantaBarbaraCA.gov/PC. You are invited to attend this hearing.

NOTICE OF PUBLICATIONS ON APPLICATIONS REGARDING PROVISIONS OF TITLE 28 AND/OR 30 OF THE MUNICIPAL CODE OF THE CITY OF SANTA BARBARA (SBMC)

cont’d from A3

The Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering and the United States Department of the Army (U.S. Army), with assistance from the United States Department of the Navy (U.S. Navy) Strategic Systems Programs (SSP), the U.S. Army Rapid Capabilities and Critical Technologies Office (RCCTO) and the United States Army Space and Missile Defense Command (USASMDC), has completed a Final Environmental Assessment / Overseas Environmental Assessment (EA/OEA), prepared in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The Final EA/OEA analyzes the impacts of up to six flight test launches at up to four different launch locations per year, over the next 10 years. The U.S. Army RCCTO and U.S. Navy SSP have identified four alternative launch locations that meet the screening criteria/evaluation factors and the test requirements for vehicle performance and data collection. They also considered the No Action Alternative, as required by the Council on Environmental Quality regulations. The Pacific locations analyzed are the Pacific Missile Range Facility, Barking Sands, Kauai, Hawaiì; Vandenberg Space Force Base (VSFB), California; and Pacific broad ocean area (BOA) impact sites. The Atlantic locations analyzed are the NASA Wallops Flight Facility, Virginia; Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Florida; and Atlantic BOA impact sites. Test scenarios are planned to include BOA impacts of the spent stages and the hypersonic payload, and do not include any land-based impacts. Based on the analysis in the Final EA/OEA, the U.S. Army has determined that the activities associated with the Proposed Action are not expected to result in significant impacts to the environment. Based on these findings, the U.S. Army has prepared a Finding of No Significant Impact / Finding of No Significant Harm (FONSI/FONSH) for the four preferred alternative launch locations. VSFB is analyzed as an alternative launch location in the EA/OEA; however, the Action Proponents have determined that it will not be considered as part of the Preferred Alternative in the FONSI/FONSH. The Final EA/OEA and FONSI/FONSH are available online at http://jfceaoea.govsupport.us and at the following locations: (1) NASA WFF Visitor Center, Wallops Island, VA
