Though the Loma Fire scorched about nine acres of land on TV Hill last week, officials say the risk for mudslides in the area remains low as Santa Barbara heads into summer.

By MADISON HIRNEISEN NEWS-PRESS CORRESPONDENT

Though the burn scar of the Loma Fire looms large over Loma Alta Drive, the risk of a mudslide coming from the area remains very low as Santa Barbara heads into the summer, city officials said Thursday. In the aftermath of last week’s fire, Santa Barbara officials are in discussion over what can be done to support the private property owners whose homes were impacted by the flames. The fire scorched about nine acres of land near the Mesa, and a group of city and county officials met at the site of the fire on Thursday to assess the damage.

Though the fire destroyed vegetation and left ash littered across the soil, Acting Public Works Director Joshua Haggmark said the risk of a mudslide or debris flow remains very low in the area, particularly as Santa Barbara’s rainy season remains months away. “We don’t think there’s a threat to public health, certainly no immediate threat to public health, and we’re going to be doing our due diligence to work with private property owners to come up with a plan to make any changes we need to make before next year’s rainy season, which if it’s like this year, then there’s nothing to worry about,” Mr. Haggmark told the News-Press.

“Solutions to homelessness require the combined efforts of national, state and local governments in partnership with community organizations, faith communities and local businesses,” said 2nd District Supervisor Gregg Hart of the city’s homeless encampment abatement efforts.

In light of a new effort to address homeless encampments due to the fire risk they pose, citywide and countywide discussions have begun on how to collaborate to keep the community safe. The Santa Barbara County fire chief assembled a task force — composed of representatives from all of the fire departments in the county — to develop recommendations on how to best reduce the risk of fires starting in homeless encampments. The County Board of Supervisors will hear these recommendations in the next month, according to 2nd District Supervisor Gregg Hart. “Fire season is now year round,” the supervisor told the News-Press. “As the brush

Barbara is a willing partner with any jurisdiction that wants to implement creative solutions to homelessness in their community.” The county’s Project Roomkey site has been able to take dozens of individuals off the streets and place them in temporary housing over the pandemic. The supervisor provided another solution as well — the Housing Authority. He said more than 225 new Section 8 housing vouchers were allocated to the Housing Authority for the City of Santa Barbara and the county from the federal government. The vouchers can be used to pay rent for people experiencing homelessness who want to come indoors. Mr. Hart said any landlords who have vacant apartments and are interested in working with the

Thespians will make their long awaited return to the stage this summer as the Pacific Conservatory Theatre gears up for live shows under the stars at the outdoor Solvang Festival Theater. PCPA will present “Together — A Musical Journey” from July 21 through Aug. 8 and “Lady Day at Emerson’s Bar & Grill” from Aug. 19 through Sept. 5, both live on stage at the Solvang Festival Theater. This will be the first time in over a year that a live audience will be welcomed to the outdoor stands of the Solvang Festival Theater, and after the hiatus, the actors are itching for their curtain call. “Eager is not a strong enough word,” Mark Booher, the artistic director of PCPA, said during a virtual announcement on Tuesday.

He said the collaborative has been meeting to develop a joint agency approach to addressing homeless encampments throughout the county. He added that there is a consensus developing among elected officials, in that each city and district in the county has a shared responsibility to provide locations to house residents experiencing homelessness. “I believe the best way we can solve this very complex issue is by working together,” Mr. Hart said. “The County of Santa

Youth ages 12-15 have been able to receive the Pfizer vaccine for just over two weeks now, and families are having the talk — the COVID-19 vaccination talk, that is. Parents, even those enthusiastic about the vaccine, are waiting for their children to decide the right moment to get vaccinated. Cottage Health has administered first doses to 2,667 youth ages 12-15, as of Thursday morning. There are approximately 4,800 people ages 12-15 in Goleta and Santa Barbara combined, according to U.S. Census data. “Every family is having their individual battle,” said Christy Philip, an emergency room nurse at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital who has been working the vaccine clinic at Goleta Valley Cottage Hospital. She has three kids, ages 14, 16 and 18. Two have been vaccinated, and she’s letting her

16-year-old son wait and ponder his decision. She was a bit nervous about admitting that she, as a frontline worker, has an unvaccinated child. But then she thought, it might be encouraging to families mulling over their options as well. “I think there are a lot of rumors, and there are a lot of kids hesitant to get the vaccine because of what they’re reading online,” she told the NewsPress. She encourages parents to talk with their children about the vaccine and seek reliable sources, like the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Families can also talk with their pediatrician, she said. “It’s not that I think that it should be all the children’s decisions, but I think the world has been so scary and weird that it’s good to give them space to process,” she said. Her 18-year-old son, a freshman in college at the

State rolls out $116.5 million vaccine incentive plan By MADISON HIRNEISEN NEWS-PRESS CORRESPONDENT

To increase interest in the COVID-19 vaccine, the state announced the rollout of an estimated $116.5 million incentive program Thursday, which will offer inoculated Californians the chance to win up to $1.5 million. The state’s giveaway will award 10 vaccinated Californians a prize of $1.5 million a piece, and 30 others will have a shot at winning $50,000 each. All state residents who have received at least one dose will be eligible for the prizes, and those who have already been inoculated are already entered. In addition to these giveaways, the next 2 million people who begin and finish their vaccine series will be eligible for a $50 prepaid card or

a $50 grocery gift card. “Some Californians weren’t ready to get their COVID-19 vaccine on day one, and that’s okay,” Dr. Tomás Aragón, director of the California Department of Public Health and the state’s public health officer, said in a statement. “This program is designed to encourage those who need extra support to get vaccinated and help keep California safe.” Starting this Tuesday, CVS Pharmacy will also be rolling out their incentives program, which will enroll customers 18 and older who have already received or plan to receive their shot through CVS health in a massive giveaway program with over a thousand prizes. Prizes include a VIP trip to Super Bowl LVI in Los Angeles, a getaway to Bermuda and a 7-day

cruise on Norwegian Cruise Line, among others. “We’re grateful for the millions of people who’ve received one of the well over 17 million doses we’ve administered at CVS Health, but we have a long way to go,” Dr. Kyu Rhee, senior vice president and a chief medical officer of CVS Health, said in a statement. “Getting as much of the population fully vaccinated will bring us one step closer to all the things we’ve missed during the past 14 months, and keep our country moving in the right direction.” The incentives come as the vaccination rate continues to climb across the state and in Santa Barbara County as well. As of Thursday, 51.2% of the county’s eligible 12 and older population is fully vaccinated, which equates

to about 43.3% of the entire population. The amount of new cases remained low on Thursday. The Public Health Department reported seven new cases and no deaths on Thursday. Four cases were reported in Santa Maria, two were reported in Santa Barbara and one was reported in the North County unincorporated area of Sisquoc, Casmalia, Garey, Cuyama, New Cuyama and Guadalupe. All other areas reported no new cases, and the county’s current active case count stands at around 47 cases still infectious. As of Thursday, six people are hospitalized for COVID-19, three of which are recovering in the ICU. email: mhirneisen@newspress.com

Additional death reported in San Jose shooting SAN JOSE — Authorities reported Thursday that an additional victim died in Wednesday’s shooting in San Jose, bringing the death toll to nine people. Officials released the list of the eight victims of the shooting at the Valley Transportation Authority

in San Jose Wednesday evening. The medical examiner announced the ninth victim several hours later, who died at Santa Clara Valley Medical Center after being hospitalized in critical condition. The mayor of San Jose, Sam Liccardo, told national reporters that the gunman knew the people

he shot, with a number of bus and light rail operators among them. The shooter was identified as Sam Cassidy, 57, and the local sheriff reported that he appeared to target his victims. He was armed with two semi automatic handguns and fired 39 rounds. Authorities are still trying to determine the motive.

A San Jose-based community organization called Working Partnerships USA and the South Bay Labor Council set up a fund to support families of the shooting victims. Donations can be made at bit.ly/vtasolidarity. — Grayce McCormick

Revenue from city sales, bed taxes increases SANTA BARBARA — The city of Santa Barbara announced Thursday that revenue from sales taxes and transient occupancy taxes were up in March and April, respectively. The city received $5.5 million in sales tax revenue during the quarter that ended March 31, which is 41% above the same quarter last year. In addition, the city collected more than $1.7 million in transient occupancy taxes for April 2021, about 7% higher than April 2019. City officials noted that the TOT revenues increased because of increased average daily rates,

which are 55% higher than April 2019, with occupancy still slightly down 1.2%. City officials said the increase in sales tax revenue is largely a result of reduced economic activity due to the pandemic and related response that began in the first quarter of last year. The March quarter was 2.2% higher than the March 2019 quarter. “While a decline in nearly all economic sectors in the economy exists, the decline was offset by larger than expected increases in online sales, which resulted in higher sales tax than originally forecasted for the

quarter ending March 2021,” Jennifer Tomaszewski, finance and treasury manager for the city, said in a statement. “As the second largest General Fund revenue, the sales tax budget for fiscal year 2021 is $22.2 million. Staff now project sales tax revenue will end the fiscal year at approximately $21.2 million, approximately 2% less than the budget. Sales tax results for the June quarter — the final quarter of the fiscal year — will be available in August 2021.” Transient Occupancy Tax, also known as bed tax, is charged to guests at short-term rentals

such as hotels and motels. TOT revenues have yet to recover to pre-pandemic levels, as there is still public concern with potential new strains of the virus, efficacy of teh vaccines and impacts to the economy. The city has collected $11.4 million through the first 10 months of the fiscal year, which runs through June 30. With an adopted budget of $17.2 million, TOT is projected to end the fiscal year at approximately $14.7 million, which is 15% below budget.

CARPINTERIA — A boat that washed ashore over the weekend in Carpinteria was successfully removed early Thursday morning from Santa Claus Beach. The Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office and volunteers from Heal the Ocean helped to coordinate the removal of the 45-foot vessel at 5 a.m. Thursday. An excavator and MarBorg truck descended on Santa Claus Beach to retrieve the boat, which washed ashore Saturday after breaking free from where it was originally anchored. To get the boat on to the beach, the Sheriff’s Office coordinated the placement of a ramp over the nearby train tracks to get the excavator and trash truck down to the beach. Officials coordinated with Union Pacific Railroad to ensure no trains would be

coming through the area in the early morning to ensure time to retrieve the boat. After the boat was removed from the beach by an excavator, volunteers collected three full roll-off bins of debris, according to Raquel Zick, the Sheriff’s Office public information officer. As of Thursday, volunteers from Heal the Ocean collected the majority of the insulation and Styrofoam debris that came off of the ship, according to Harry Rabin, a volunteer with Heal the Ocean. Mr. Rabin said he and a few volunteers are coordinating the removal of a few large pieces of debris that drifted about three miles down the coast, which will need to be sawed apart before they are disposed of. — Madison Hirneisen

“We’ve been yearning to get back in direct contact with our audience.” The theater’s inaugural summer show, “Together,” is a theatrical concert that will celebrate the chance to be together after spending a year apart. The show, which is an original concert exclusively created for PCPA audiences, features a collection of popular tunes such as “If You Knew My Story,” “You Will Be Found,” “Slap that Bass” and “Can’t Stop the Feeling.” “After more than a year apart, ‘Together’ is a celebration of being able to share experiences through stories and song,” Mr. Booher said. “It’s a theatrical concert that revels in the simple fact that life is better when we live it together.” The second show of the summer, “Lady Day at Emerson’s Bar & Grill,” will feature actress Karole Foreman as the legendary music artist Billie Holiday. The show portrays one of the late artist’s final concerts in a Philadelphia bar just four months before her death. “Lady Day” paints a portrait of Ms. Holiday through more than a dozen musical numbers and humorous memories of the legendary singer. “At a time in America when race, gender and the opioid crisis are being discussed loudly on a daily basis, Billie Holiday’s life and career are a great example of what it means to not just survive,

Royals show true Gritt to walk off with league softball title By MARK PATTON NEWS-PRESS SENIOR WRITER

Allie Fryklund’s best Senior Day moment came when it got passed on to her sophomore battery mate on the San Marcos High softball team. Catcher Gigi Gritt followed an intentional walk to the Royals’ lone senior by slugging a bases-loaded hit to the right field fence to give the Royals a 1-0, walk-off victory over cross-town rival Dos Pueblos on Thursday. “I was totally confident in Gigi,” said Fryklund, who pitched a twohit, 10-strikeout gem to blank the Chargers for the second time in three days. “I don’t think she gives herself enough credit. She’s a great player, a great catcher. “Every single girl put their heart and soul into this. It was just a great way to be rewarded on Senior Day.” The victory in Thursday’s regular-season finale gave San Marcos (17-4, 14-1 Channel League) an outright conference championship. The Chargers (16-7, 12-3) had entered the week tied for first with the Royals. “It’s so fun to win a 1-0 game … league championship on the line against your arch-rival,” Royals’ coach Jeff Swann said. San Marcos’ lone league loss came the last time it played host to Dos Pueblos. The Chargers rallied for a 5-4 win on April 23. The Royals have won 12 straight games since then.

“That same situation happened in the first game and we ended up losing,” Gritt said. “But to come back like this is amazing. “(Fryklund) is one of the hardestworking kids on this team and I think she wanted that more than anyone. We really wanted to get that for her.” Georgia Wilson, DP’s freshman pitcher, had performed well in the clutch all game, as well. She stranded eight runners through the first six innings, five of whom reached scoring position, and scattered seven hits. “That was a great-pitched game,” Chargers coach Mike Gerken said. “(Wilson) is really composed for a freshman and she’s really good at locating her pitches. It keeps the batters off and they don’t get a lot of barrels on it. But credit to Gigi, she got a barrel on it. “I talk about this game being a game of memories and moments. When we were here last time, we had a moment. This time Gigi has a moment … That’s a moment she’ll have for the rest of her life.” Another freshman, Emma Foster, ignited the seventh-inning rally by working a leadoff walk. Kamilah Morales followed with an infield single. She and teammate Tiana Monaghan both had two hits in the game. San Marcos star Caitlyn Early, who had doubled in her previous at-bat, grounded into a force-out to put runners on first-and-third bases. Gerken

then called for Wilson to intentionally walk Fryklund. Swann considered it to be a case of picking your poison since DP was bypassing a .545 hitter to get at a similarly dangerous, .433 hitter. “There is no one person I’d rather have up there (than Gritt) because of her maturity,” he said. “She’s calm and she has a great understanding of the game. She knows the strike zone. “So that was the perfect player to have in there.” Fryklund, who pitched a perfect game earlier in the season, did have to work out of a pair of early jams. Singles by Riley Monroe in the first inning and Lacey Spear in the second, along with a trio of walks, put four Chargers into scoring position. But Fryklund pitched out of trouble both times before catching her stride to retire DP’s last 15 batters. “It’s Senior Day, and she definitely had the emotion in her pitching,” Gritt said. “She’s one of the most hyped-up persons on our team. She always comes out here and pumps everybody up. She wants to win.” Both teams now await Saturday’s release of the CIF-Southern Section playoff brackets. Swann, who guided San Marcos into the CIF finals in both 2017 and 2018, likes his chances again. “There is so much love on this team that even when kids faltered, there was someone there to pick

Dons’ Haller defends Channel League girls golf crown By MARK PATTON NEWS-PRESS SENIOR WRITER

Santa Barbara High senior Melia Haller rallied with a second-round 77 at the Blacklakes Golf Course to successfully defend her Channel League Girls Individual Golf Championship on Thursday. Haller, who trailed by two strokes entering the final day, finished with a 36-hole 159 to edge San Marcos High freshman Jayla Provance by one stroke. Provance shot a 79 on Thursday to finish with 160. The rest of the Channel league first team was comprised of Santa Barbara’s Lizzie Goss (164) and Ella Williams (177), as well as Dos Pueblos’ Chelsi Ramirez (185) and Victoria Chen (189). Making second team were Santa Barbara’s Aoife Braverman, Santa

Blockbusters are back

IMAGES COURTESY METRO THEATRES

Metro Theatres announces release dates for summer’s big movies

By DAVE MASON NEWS-PRESS MANAGING EDITOR

inally, superhero Black Widow will save the day, the Jungle Cruise will sail and the “Fast & Furious” franchise can race back to the box office. Hit the gas! Fasten your seatbelts because, after being delayed by COVID-19, blockbusters are back. This summer will feel like a more normal one for fans of action, horror and animated films. You can also see a musical (“In the Heights”) and a biopic about the great singer Aretha Franklin (“Respect”). Metro Theatres, which owns movie theaters in Santa Barbara and Goleta, this week announced release dates for everything from “A Quiet Place Part II,” screening today, to “The Suicide Squad,” “Space Jam” and a “Hotel Transylvania” sequel. Blockbusters will screen as well at other theaters throughout Santa Barbara County. Here’s the schedule for movies

at Metro Theatres, which recently reopened the Arlington Theatre, Fiesta 5, Metro 4, Fairview Theatre and Camino Real Cinemas. Opening today • “A Quiet Place Part II.” The Abbott family returns in this 2020 horror sequel, starring Emily Blunt and directed by her husband, actor John Krasinski. Once again, the Abbotts must navigate in a post-apocalyptic world full of blind monsters with great hearing. Don’t make a sound! • “Cruella.” Emma Stone stars as the “101 Dalmatians” villain in this comedy, which also stars Emma Thompson. The film shows how a teenager with the dream of becoming a fashion designer becomes Cruella de Vil. June 4 • “Spirit Untamed.” Elaine Bogan and Ennio Torresan Jr. directed this animated DreamWorks film about how Lucky Prescott’s life changed when she moved from her urban home to a small frontier town.

She becomes friends with a wild mustang named Spirit. The film stars the voices of Isabela Merced, Jake Gyllenhaal, Marsai Martin and Mckenna Grace. • “The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It.” In this sequel, the Warrens investigate a murder that may be linked to a demonic possession. June 11 • “In the Heights.” The Broadway musical comes to the big screen. Directed by Jon M. Chu, the movie stars Anthony Ramos, Corey Hawkins, Leslie Grace and Stephanie Beatriz in a story about Usnavi saving his money and hoping for a better life. Cue the music; start dancing! June 16 • “The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard.” The unlikely duo of Michael Bryce (Ryan Reynolds) and Darius Kincaid (Samuel L. Jackson) team up to save Darius’ wife, Sonia (Salma Hayek). Patrick Hughes directed the movie, which also stars Frank Grillo, Morgan Freeman and Antonio Banderas. June 18 • “Peter Rabbit 2: The

Runaway.” Talk show host James Corden returns as the voice of Peter in this sequel, which shows the married life of Bea (Rose Bryne) and Thomas (Domnhall Gleason). Get set for an adventure! June 25 • “F9.” Justin Lin directs the latest “Fast & Furious” installment, in which Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) and his crew put the pedal to the metal. But speed alone might not be enough as Dominic deals with his younger brother, Jakob (John Cena), who is helping the villainous Cipher (Charlize Theron) against him. Talk about sibling rivalry! The film also stars Michelle Rodriguez, Jordana Brewster, Tyrese Gibson and Ludacris. July 2 • “The Forever Purge.” In this 2021 horror film, a Mexican couple, Adela and Juan (played by Ana de la Reguera and Tenoch Huerta), battles thugs who want to continue the now-outlawed Purge. Everado Gout directed the film. July 9 • “Black Widow.” Scarlett Johansson is back as the popular

Marvel superhero in the longawaited film. Black Widow, aka Natasha Romanoff, gave her life to save the universe in “Avengers: End Game,” but this film is set between “Captain America: Civil War” and “Avengers: Infinity War” and shows more of Natasha’s background. The director is Cate Shortland. July 16 • “Space Jam: A New Legacy.” The first “Space Jam” movie came out in 1996 and teamed basketball great Michael Jordan with Bugs Bunny and his Looney Tunes friends. This time, athlete LeBron James teams up with Bugs and pals, which vary from Yosemite Sam to Daffy Duck, Elmer Fudd, Marvin the Martian, Tweety and Porky Pig. And that’s not all, folks. July 23 • “Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins.” Here’s the story of assassin Snake Eyes (Henry Golding) before he’s recruited by the forces of G.I. Joe. • “Hotel Transylvania: Transformia.” Brian Hull, not Adam Sandler, is the voice of Dracula in the fourth “Hotel

Transylvania” movie. Curious fans will see how Mr. Hull does. Back for the fun are voice actors from the previous movies, including Andy Samberg and Selena Gomez as Jonathan and Mavis, David Spade as Griffin the Invisible Man and Fran Drescher as Eunice. • “Old.” Suspense movie legend M. Night Shyamalan produced, directed and wrote this movie inspired by the “Sandcastle” graphic novel. The film starts with a family on a pleasant tropical holiday. What could go wrong? July 30 • “Jungle Cruise.” Emily Blunt stars with Dwayne Johnson in this movie inspired by the popular Disneyland ride, known for its puns and wonders such as “the back side of water.” But watch out. The jungle is filled with dangerous animals and reptiles (all of whom work for scale). Aug. 6 • “The Suicide Squad.” Margo Please see BLOCKBUSTERS on A7

Diversions horoscope • puzzles

ARIES — You may be called upon to host a gathering in your own home, Aries. At first this could throw you into a panic because you don’t think your house is clean enough. Don’t worry. It’s probably impeccable. You’re the only one who will notice any dust, so don’t sweat it. TAURUS — You feel confident. People can’t help but notice as you radiate a loving, peaceful calm, Taurus. Eyes will turn your way, and complete strangers may come up to you and tell you how attractive you are. Be confident yet humble and you will inspire people just by your peaceful, glowing presence. Take advantage of this wonderful day by enjoying yourself for the beautiful person you are. GEMINI — You may be running into obstacles associated with your goals. You may feel you aren’t getting the support and cooperation you deserve. Today you may sense that people are emotionally distant, with shallow views on certain issues. People you expected to be on your side may turn against you, making you feel betrayed. Try not to take things personally. CANCER — This is a great day for you, Cancer. Unexpected reunions are possible, thanks to the lighthearted aura you radiate. You don’t need to work very hard to bring everything your way. Your sunny personality attracts the fun and good fortune that you most certainly deserve. People are extremely lucky to be in your glowing presence on a day like this. LEO — You may wonder why all the attention isn’t focused on you, Leo. Perhaps you feel cheated and irritable. The more annoyed you get, the more you will drive others away instead of draw them to you. Rather than get upset or angry because attention isn’t coming your way, join with the prevailing happy-go-lucky mood. You will find that your whole day turns around for the better. VIRGO — This is a climactic time for you, Virgo. You may feel like many difficult issues are coming to a head. You may lash out and snap at people who don’t deserve it.

SCORPIO — Today can be a wonderfully productive day for you, Scorpio, if you learn how to compromise. If you insist on doing things your way only, you will run into difficult emotional conflicts. Realize that this can easily be avoided by joining hands with your partner and working together toward a common goal. There’s a great deal of energy here, so don’t waste it on something insignificant. SAGITTARIUS — You will most likely be hungry for attention today, Sagittarius.

You’re on top of the world, so enjoy it, your family, and the people around you. You’re at the forefront of the action and you don’t miss a beat, regardless of the conversation buzzing around you. You’re able to whip out facts and dates at the drop of a hat. Don’t let anyone bring you down or talk you out of your good mood. AQUARIUS — You may feel tense, Aquarius, perhaps because someone close to you disregards the way you feel. You feel as if this person is more concerned with his or her own issues and not concerned about you. Meanwhile, your sensitive, caring heart is well aware of everyone else. You support others and are thoughtful. It’s time to rearrange your priorities. First care about yourself, then others. PISCES — Take extra time to tend to your appearance and show off a bit today, Pisces. Keep your shoulders back and head high. Be the proud person you are. You should feel validated. Your job today is to simply uplift people with your presence. This is no sweat for you. Happiness is right up your alley, so have fun.

Thought for Today

Codeword is a fun game with simple rules, and a great way to test your knowledge of the English language. 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.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO ADMINISTER ESTATE OF: MARILYN BENSON Case Number: 21PR00220 To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of: Marilynn Benson A Petition for Probate has been filed by Kellie Lynn Stoelting in the SUPERIOR COURT OF CALIFORNIA, COUNTY OF SANTA BARBARA. The Petition for Probate requests that Kellie Lynn Stoelting be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent. The Petition requests the decedent’s will and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the court. The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority. A hearing on the petition will be held in this court as follows: Date: 06/24/2021 at Time: 9:00 AM, in Dept.: 5, located at SUPERIOR COURT OF CALIFORNIA, COUNTY OF SANTA BARBARA, 1100 Anacapa Street, Santa Barbara, CA 93101; PO Box 21107, Santa Barbara, CA 93121-1107, Anacapa Division. If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney. If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law. You may examine the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk. Attorney for petitioner: Dennis G. Merenbach Address: 3463 State Street, Suite 543 Santa Barbara, CA 93105 Phone: 805 963-4484

At left, Joshua Haggmark, the acting public works director, met with city officials at the site of the Loma Fire on Thursday to assess the damage and discuss how to support private property owners who were impacted by last week’s fire. At right, city and county officials met at the site of the Loma Fire Thursday to examine the charred terrain and discuss future plans to support property owners.

DEBRIS

Continued from Page A1 The burn scar is causing officials to reminisce on the Thomas Fire in 2017, which ultimately led to the devastating Montecito mudslides after the area was pounded with heavy rain just three weeks later. But because the Loma Fire occurred in May as opposed to October or November, Mr. Haggmark said there is still time to see how much the native vegetation can recover before rain hits the area in the winter. “This is not the kind of hillside where you’re going to get debris flow,” Mr. Haggmark said. “This is not Montecito.” He later added, “The city doesn’t see mud or rock fall being

a risk to the lower West Side neighborhood homes.” If a rain shower could threaten a potential mudslide in the area, Mr. Haggmark said officials would likely close Loma Alta Drive out of “an abundance of caution” to ensure no damage would be done from flowing material. He said officials are also considering putting up a K-rail in the area during the winter months to catch debris, though the city will continue to monitor and study the area. Because the fire occurred on private property, Mr. Haggmark said the city is currently working to support the property owners as they decide how to best secure their property in the future. email: mhirneisen@newspress.com

VACCINES

Continued from Page A1

University of Colorado, Colorado Springs, begged her for the vaccine when he was home during the holidays. He lived in an on-campus residence hall and had to isolate himself for 14 days when his two roommates contracted COVID-19. Ms. Philip didn’t use her position with Cottage Health to speed up her son’s inoculation, but her experience allowed her to better motivate her children and friends to make their appointments. When the pandemic first struck locally, she was worried about bringing the virus home. She changed her clothes and shoes and showered when she returned home after her shifts. She spent time on the phone with loved ones, giving them advice about how to protect their family. Now people have fewer questions, and her recommendation now revolves around the vaccine. Dan Oh, a volunteer at the Goleta Valley Cottage Hospital vaccine clinic, feels “so much safer” now that his 12-year-old son is vaccinated. His son was ready to be vaccinated as soon as the emergency-use authorization extended to his age group. “He certainly was eager and happy to get vaccinated. He knew what it meant to be vaccinated that he could go out and do things,” Mr. Oh told the News-Press. “I feel like he can go do more things and see people, especially going into the summer.

The Loma Fire burned through nine acres of vegetation on TV Hill last Thursday.

A second summer of no camps and activities would be hard,” he said. Most of the parents he knows have a similar perspective. “Some parents are withholding, so it’s not 100%; it’s not universal. I think you have to really respect that and not push that,” he said. He’s noticed less urgency in the community to get vaccinated but says the demand for vaccines is far from over. Last week, the Food and Drug Administration started looking into cases of myocarditis, or inflammation of the heart muscle, in youth that had been vaccinated. Dr. Peter Marks, the FDA’s top vaccine regulator, said he wasn’t sure if the condition was related to the vaccine. “My kids are a little older, but I wouldn’t hesitate to vaccinate my children, just because this is a pretty rare finding and we really don’t know yet if it’s truly related,” he said during a Q&A event Thursday. Neither Mr. Oh nor Ms. Philip noticed side effects in their vaccinated kids, not even sore arms. They both compared the COVID-19 vaccine to the shots for smallpox, whooping cough and the other vaccinations required by schools nationwide. Schools and employers are currently not allowed to mandate a COVID-19 vaccination. If the vaccine receives full FDA approval, not just under emergency use, then proof of vaccination could be required. But, for now, families have time to discuss. email: ahanshaw@newspress.com

Housing Authorities should call the city division at 805-965-1071 or the county division at 805-7363423. Furthermore, the county is “committed to using some of the American Rescue Plan Act funds for acquiring and improving housing sites for individuals experiencing homelessness,” he said. The supervisor did not indicate how much money will be committed to the issue. The final solution Mr. Hart presented was the work of U.S. Rep. Salud Carbajal, D-Santa Barbara, who recently introduced federal legislation to provide grants to support Safe Parking programs. “The Safe Parking program began 20 years ago in Santa Barbara and has become a very successful program locally that has been replicated in many communities across the country,” Mr. Hart said. Safe Parking programs allow for individuals who sleep in their cars a safe place to park and utilize resources such as bathroom facilities and case management. The Safe Parking Shelter and Rapid Rehousing Program, offered through New Beginnings, served 600 people last year. “Solutions to homelessness require the combined efforts of national, state and local governments in partnership with community organizations, faith communities and local businesses,” Mr. Hart said. “Working together, we can get our neighbors safely indoors and provide a path to recovery and hope.” Next door, the city of Goleta is planning ongoing outreach to people who are illegally camping by the Sheriff’s Office and coordinating with CalTrans on efforts to clean up trash, debris and personal belongings.

He then followed his hero, Reginald “Pep” Velasquez (Uncle) into the Navy in 1950. On August 4, 1956 he married the love of his life and next door neighbor, Dolores “Lola” De Alba and had 6 children. Joe worked for Smarden and Hatcher for over 40 years until his retirement. While living with his family in their Goleta home he purchased a piece of land in Carpinteria. A few years later after moving back to Carpinteria with the family he planted avocado trees and built his own home with the help of great family and friends. He enjoyed having avocado-picking parties and paid his family and friends with lots of cold beverages, Lola’s homemade tortillas and a variety of her delicious meals. A funeral service will be held Tuesday, June 1 at 10 am at St. Joseph’s Church. Burial will be immediately following at the Carpinteria Valley Cemetery.

Deanna Major passed away peacefully at her home in Santa Barbara surrounded by her loving family on Monday, 19 April 2021 at the age of 76. Deanna was born May 20, 1944 in Goethenberg, Nebraska, daughter of Doris (née Gerdes) and Jim Knudsen. Jim was killed in action in France, August 18th, 1944. Doris married Nicholas Camblin, Sr. who adopted Deanna and lovingly raised her as his own. She moved to California at the age of 3 and settled in Sacramento at age 7. She graduated from Encina High School in 1962. She attended UC Berkeley before transferring to NYU where she completed her BA degree (Phi Beta Kappa) and then her MA in History with a teaching credential. She worked as a teacher at South Bronx Middle School then moved into the insurance industry in Seattle and later Los Angeles. Deanna met the love of her life, Bill Major, in Los Angeles at a New Year’s Eve party and they married only a few months later September 3, 1977. In the 1980s, they moved to Sacramento for Deanna to work as the president of the family construction company, Camblin Steel Service. They retired to Santa Barbara in 1994. After her executive career, she returned to her earlier passion: fostering a love of art in children. She worked for ten years as a docent at the Santa Barbara Museum of Art, working with children directly through outreach programs as well as through children’s tours and highlights tours. She served on the SBMA Women’s Board for 20 years in various roles as member, membership VP, president, treasurer and parliamentarian and she chaired two major fundraisers (Mysteries & Masterpieces). She was an active supporter of Lobero and Ensemble Theaters. Deanna was a committed Christian who trusted in the Lord. Deanna is survived by her husband, Bill Major; her siblings: Vicki, Nick and Bill Camblin of Sacramento, CA; her children: David Major (Catherine) of Tyler, TX, Doug Major of Studio City, CA, Jeff Major (Kim) of Citrus Heights, CA, Julie McHale of Gilbert, AZ, and Nicole Fraser (Harley Feldbaum) of Geneva, Switzerland; and her ten grandchildren: Cameron, Caylyn, Michael, Andrew, Dylan, Maddox, Nora, James, Paul and Victoria. In lieu of ﬂowers, Deanna may be remembered by donations to the Santa Barbara Museum of Art.

However, Jaime Valdez, the interim neighborhood services and public safety director for the city, said homeless encampments inside Goleta city limits “do not occur with much frequency.” Those that do pop up tend to be out of Goleta’s jurisdiction, such as in the CalTrans or Union Pacific rights of way. “The city is in the process of developing regulations aimed at city-owned open spaces and parks throughout the city to improve public safety and reduce the fire risk on those lands,” Mr. Valdez said. “It is being developed to do so in a humane fashion while also protecting public health and safety. Other approaches to help prevent fire risk include pursuing dry vegetation cleanup to reduce potential fuel for fires.” However, he said COVID-19 poses most of the obstacles in addressing the issue, with restrictions decreasing shelter capacity countywide by 75% and CalTrans implementing a statewide policy prohibiting it from clearing encampments. Mr. Valdez said he hopes that policy will change as the state reaches new levels of openness. In addition, the public safety director said Goleta is constrained by the Martin v. Boise case on moving people who are sitting, sleeping or lying on public property if the city does not have adequate shelter alternatives. “The issue of homelessness is regional and ultimately not limited to one city or jurisdiction,” he said. “As such, it is necessary for all regional partners to work together to address the issue of homelessness in a way that humanely treats those experiencing homelessness while also ensuring and protecting the lives and property of everyone.”
