Wineries lament cannabis grows in Santa Ynez Valley

Public-private partnership serves low-income pet owners

Volunteers scoop dog food into bags for a C.A.R.E.4Paws pet supply distribution. The organization is partnered with Santa Barbara County Animal Services to expand its pet resource centers into Santa Barbara and Lompoc shelters.

By MADISON HIRNEISEN NEWS-PRESS CORRESPONDENT

As the concentration of cannabis cultivation in the Santa Ynez Valley continues to grow, winery managers and vineyard owners are voicing concerns over the impact cannabis operations could have on business. Santa Rosa Road, which stretches from Buellton to Lompoc, was once an area primarily monopolized by vineyards and wineries. But in recent years, the vast agricultural region has become a hot spot for the cannabis industry. Cannabis operations in the

region range in size from about two acres to approximately 86 acres, according to Jeff Wilson, the assistant director of the county’s Planning and Development Department. And despite existing operations, interest in this region remains high for cannabis cultivators. Earlier this month, the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors and the county’s Planning Commission paved the way for Central Coast Agriculture to move forward with a 29-acre project on Santa Rosa Road near Buellton after shooting down an appeal from the Santa Please see CANNABIS on A4

Santa Barbara County Animal Services and C.A.R.E.4Paws, alongside five additional pet-centric nonprofits, are expanding their services to low-income pet owners this Wednesday by opening pet resource centers at the county animal shelters in Lompoc and Santa Barbara. Lompoc Mayor Jenelle Osborn will cut the ceremonial ribbon at 10 a.m. Wednesday at Lompoc’s shelter, at 1501 W Central Ave., opening the new resource center. Goleta Mayor Paula Perotte will perform the Santa Barbara shelter’s ceremony at 1 p.m. Wednesday at 5473 Overpass Road. “We’re really trying to push that we don’t want someone to have to choose between paying bills and feeding their animals or turning their animals in, and so the more locations and areas that we can offer, the better. They can get help for their animals, and they don’t have to turn an animal into the shelters,” Jessica Ortega-Wiebe, Animal Services’ responsible pet ownership program coordinator, told the News-Press. Caring for a pet is expensive, potentially pricing out many members of the community, but Animal Services and its private partnerships provide services ensure that low-income individuals can still receive the love of a furry companion. The pet resource centers are one way pet owners can ensure their animals’ needs are met. The centers are stocked with community donations of dog and cat food and other supplies, and staff can also help sign up for low-cost veterinary care. C.A.R.E.4Paws independently hosts 10 pet resource centers throughout the community, but its partnership with Animal Services amplifies the accessibility of these resources. The organization launched its first center in a county shelter in January 2020, located in the Santa Maria shelter. The center has been self-sustaining and

busy, said Ms. Ortega-Wiebe. Occasionally Animal Services will post on social media that stock is getting low, and community members will quickly replenish supply. The Companion Animal Placement Assistance has sponsored a pet food bank at the shelter in Lompoc since 1997 and was consulted before the new pet resource center partnership launched in its place. CAPA was happy to join in. The following nonprofits have also joined

A three-year economic development plan is headed to the desks of Santa Barbara’s City Council members on Tuesday. As COVID-19 restrictions ease, city staff said it was important to establish a midterm economic development plan with strategies and objectives to support businesses and the city’s commercial districts, revitalize downtown and strengthen the local economy. The plan lays the foundation for a full Economic Development Program, which the city hopes will support social equity and environmental protection while enhancing Santa Barbara. Three strategies drive the plan: supporting local businesses and commercial districts citywide; cultivating a business-friendly city government; and strengthening downtown as the regional hub of retail, entertainment, art and culture, higher education and business. To support local business and commercial districts, the plan suggests to organize business assistance training opportunities, provide promotional support, develop business retention and more. To cultivate a businessfriendly government, the plan aims to communicate and address business and land development processes, along with addressing the need for citywide marketing and an electronic newsletter. Down the line, the city hopes to facilitate downtown housing development and support cowork/creative office and higher education uses. “The adoption of this economic development plan sets Santa Barbara on a strategic path to strengthen the city’s economy and enhance downtown vibrancy,” the plan reads. “This plan establishes a foundation to support businesses, revitalize downtown and enhance the city’s quality of life.” The City Council will also consider a request from Councilwoman Kristen Sneddon and Mayor Pro Tempore Oscar Gutierrez for a presentation from Healing Justice and local black organizations on the benefits of a black/African-American Cultural Resource Center during a regularly scheduled meeting.

The request points out that the council has voiced general support of a center like this, and “has affirmed equity as a core value by declaring racism a public health crisis in summer of 2020.” “Santa Barbara City Council understands the historical significance of investing in this space as a way of honoring the first black resident of Santa Barbara, Jerry Forney, an enslaved man who later claimed his freedom,” the request reads. “City Council believes that this black history is Santa Barbara history and deserving of public acknowledgement and support, best accomplished by establishing a black-centered and led community resource center.” There will also be a public hearing held at Tuesday’s meeting to review the public draft of the city’s 2020 Enhanced Urban Water Management Plan. The 2020 plan confirmed a 2020 target water use of 117 gallons per capita per day, which the city has met. A hearing will also be held for the 2021 Water Shortage Contingency Plan, which responds to water shortages caused by drought conditions and/or catastrophic water supply emergency. The staff report details that a Drought Risk Assessment found that Santa Barbara would still have supplies available at the end of a five-year drought that starts in 2021. “...the city has more than enough water supply to meet demands in normal hydrologic periods,” the staff report says. “During the recent extended drought, city customers achieved 40% conservation in 2016, which was year five of the multiple-year drought. Therefore, the city is confident customers can reduce water demand up to 20% in year five of future multi-year droughts.” The council will adjourn Tuesday’s meeting in honor of former Santa Barbara Mayor Hal Conklin, who died Friday at age 75 after battling brain cancer. Mayor Cathy Murillo requested the flag at City Hall be lowered to halfstaff today for him as well. The meeting will begin at 2 p.m. on Tuesday, and can be viewed on City TV Channel 18 or streamed live at www.santabarbaraca.gov/cap.

Special meeting to review Goleta budgets

Supes meeting cancelled

UCSB expands summer programs

The meeting of the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors scheduled for Tuesday was canceled, as Tuesday is the fourth Tuesday of the month. There will also be no meeting the following week on June 1, due to the Memorial Day holiday. The next convening of the board will be held June 8, and will be the first of two budget hearings in the month of June.

UCSB is preparing for one of its largest summer semesters with robust in-person and online programs — including a summer experience for incoming sophomores designed to mimic the freshman experience. The university expects at least 10,000 students to enroll for summer classes, a number rarely met in past summers. Course offerings are expanding as well, including a variety of first- and secondyear Discovery courses encouraging students to explore other areas. “Some of the things we’re doing this year are designed to address needs that are specific to the situation created by COVID-19, but it all fits in well with our larger vision to expand summer opportunities and accessibility. We really want to make sure that we’re providing opportunities to benefit every student in summer,” Leesa Becka, director of Summer Sessions, said in a news release. “The current situation is pretty unusual, but we’re hoping to make the most of it.” UCSB’s “Second Year Summer” provides the dorm life and opportunities of freshman year to a class of students who spent their first year remotely. In addition to fun activities, the program provides peer mentors and helps students learn about research opportunities and other ways to advance their degree. There are scholarships dedicated to Second Year Summer, so aid-eligible students can join.

Group picnic reservations open GOLETA — The city of Goleta announced last week that it is accepting reservations for its group barbecue areas. The areas have been closed to public access for more than a year, and the reservation program is now open at Stow Grove Park, as well as Jonny D. Wallis Neighborhood Park, which will offer two covered areas that can be reserved for gatherings, according to city officials. The four group areas near the field will remain available on a first-come, first-serve basis. Stow Grove Park and Jonny D. Wallis Neighborhood Park are the only city parks that take reservations. Girsh Park is a private park and Goleta Beach Park is run by the county. “As soon as Jonny D. Wallis Neighborhood Park opened, we received numerous requests to reserve the space for family gatherings and birthday parties,” JoAnne Plummer, parks and recreation manager for the city, said in a statement. “The Parks and Recreation Commission supported a recommendation, and we are pleased to provide these two covered areas as reservable options for the community leaving four other picnic areas open as first-come, first-served.” To reserve a group picnic area, visit www.CityofGoleta.org/ GroupPicnic, or contact City Hall at 805-961-7500. Those interested will need to download the 2021 Group Picnic Area Reservation Application and return the completed form via email to parkreservations@ cityofgoleta.org or mail it with payment to: City of Goleta, Group Picnic Area Reservations, 130 Cremona Drive, Suite B, Goleta, CA 93117. Reservations are for the entire day.

Santa Barbara County reports four new COVID-19 cases The Santa Barbara County Public Health Department detected just four COVID-19 cases Sunday, a decrease of 59% compared to a twoweek average. The county has 49 cases still infectious, down 30% from its two-week average. Public Health has recorded a total of 34,443 COVID-19 cases.

Scholarship Foundation announces awards SANTA BARBARA — The Scholarship Foundation of Santa Barbara announced last week that it has awarded college scholarships totaling more than $8 million to 2,247 Santa Barbara County students for the 2021-22 academic year. Of the $8,023,167 awarded, more than $3.6 million will help support 1,195 North County students, and more than $4.2 will support 1,026 South County students. Scholarship awards for undergraduate students average $3,185. Overall (for both graduate and undergraduate students), awards averaged $3,570, according to Tim Dougherty, director

increase in assessed property value). It is anticipated that values will remain high, though it is assumed there will be a slowdown of real estate sales activity. Overall sales tax revenues are projected to reach $7.3 million in FY 21/22 and $7.6 million in FY 22/23, and overall TOT revenues are assumed to be $10 million for FY 21/22 and $11.1 million for FY 22/23. For reference, TOT was at $11.6 million in FY 18/19, and staff’s current projections assume TOT revenues to reach those levels by FY 24/25. Finally, staff made conservative budget estimates for cannabis business tax revenues for FY 21/22 and FY 22/23, and is currently projecting $2.6 million FY 21/22 and $2.7 million in FY 22/23. The City Council will be asked to consider funding options on a city allocation from the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 in the next few months. Goleta will receive close to $6 million in funding, which is 5.6% higher than the original estimates. The meeting will begin at 5 p.m. Tuesday, and can be viewed on Goleta Channel 19 or online at https://tinyurl.com/goletameetings.

Freshman Summer Start and Transfer Edge, two existing programs, also have scholarships for both in-person and remote offerings. “We realize that after such a strange year-anda-half, our incoming students may be in a lot of different situations. Some may be really excited to come to campus and start connecting with their new community, but others may not be ready for that yet, or may want to leverage their summer in other ways,” Ms. Beck said. The Undergraduate Mentorship Program, which is typically held in the spring for first-year students, will now be available in the summer. The program matches students with a mentor to guide them through campus resources. The Scholar Retention Program, which provides struggling students a summer to catch up academically, will be expanded from around 50 to 300 students. It will be available online this year. “We’d love to see summer become a part of every student’s academic plan, and are working to provide opportunities that will meet a broad range of student needs and goals,” Ms. Beck said. “The needs and opportunities this year are pretty unique, but I’m hoping that we can learn from what we’ve seen and experienced, and carry forward the best parts to support an even broader range of possibilities in future years.” Students who participate in at least one summer semester are more likely to graduate on time, she said. The college had discussed expanding summer’s offerings in years prior, and the challenges of the pandemic made the programs a priority.

Goleta City Council members will convene at 5 p.m. Tuesday in a special meeting to review the preliminary operating budget for fiscal years 2021/22 and 2022/23, along with the preliminary five-year operating budget forecast for the general fund. City staff worked to develop a budget that restores existing levels of service that were temporarily reduced due to the financial impacts and economic uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic, including programs and projects that were deferred. Additionally, the draft budgets address policy direction as provided in the city’s Strategic Plan and each department’s annual work program. Total revenues are projected at $31.5 million in FY 21/22 and $33.1 million in FY 22/23. Revenue growth is primarily due to sales tax and transient occupancy tax returning closer to normal levels and an increase in cannabis tax revenues, according to the staff report. Total expenditures are projected at $31.7 million in FY 21/22 and $32.2 million in FY 22/23, which include one-time expenditures of $1.6 million in year 1 and $1.2 million in year 2.

“While the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have remained throughout FY 20/21, recent occupancy and average daily rate data has shown hotel tax revenue is now gradually trending toward pre-pandemic levels,” the staff report says. “In addition, the city has experienced new cannabis tax revenue in FY 20/21, and it was higher than anticipated. “Staff expects gradual increases over time as additional cannabis businesses with pending applications become operational. However, uncertainty still exists, and it is still unknown how long the economic slowdown caused by the pandemic will linger and the speed of future recovery of our local economy.” The meeting will also explore revenue assumptions, expenditure assumptions, projected fund balance and reserves, an updated five-year forecast through FY 25/26 and unfunded priorities. Property tax is the General Fund’s most stable revenue source and is projected to be $8 million for FY 21/22 and $8.2 million in FY 22/23. Three factors determine the annual change in property tax revenue for the city: inflation, transfer of ownership and Proposition 8 recapture (an additional

SB Unified to present LCAP overview By ANNELISE HANSHAW NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

The Santa Barbara Unified School District will hold its regularly scheduled board meeting, open for public viewing at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday. The district broadcasts the meetings live on its YouTube channel at youtube.com/user/ SBUSDK12. The district will provide an update on the development of the 2021-2024 Local Control Accountability Plan, a threeyear plan that budgets state funding to underrepresented groups. A parent advisory committee has been meeting with district officials to guide this plan. Two committee members called during the last board meeting to express frustration regarding the committee process, particularly upset with the use of LCAP funds for duallanguage immersion programs. The district plans to submit a draft of its plans to the Santa Barbara County Education Office on Friday. It has also scheduled a public hearing during the June 8 board meeting and approval June 22. Board members will also hear about the district’s Early Learning Plan with First Five Santa Barbara County. First Five Santa Barbara County was founded in 1999 after voters passed Proposition 10, taxing tobacco products and funding early childhood development programs. First Five is granting SB Unified $600,000 over the next four years for an outdoor/ STEAM program in the district’s Title 1 schools. Two additional three-year cycles of $450,000 may be added if the district shows satisfactory progress. More details will be shared during the discussion portion of Tuesday’s meeting. In the action agenda, the board will review the district’s Expanded Learning Opportunity plan, which it must submit for state and federal grants. The plan outlines how the district will spend just over $9.7 million to assist struggling students. The document doesn’t provide many specifics but emphasizes the “Summer of Learning,” including community partnerships. District officials attached memorandums of understanding with the following community organizations: Explore Ecology; Girls Inc. of Greater Santa Barbara; MOXI, The Wolf Museum of Exploration + Innovation; One Community Bridge Project; Santa Barbara Bicycle Coalition; Santa Barbara CalSOAP/ CommUnify; Santa Barbara Education Foundation; Santa Barbara Dance Institute; Santa Barbara Public Library; United Boys & Girls Clubs of Santa Barbara County; United Way of Santa Barbara County; and Wilderness Youth Project. The Summer of Learning report, scheduled for 8 p.m., will provide an update on the hiring process. To view the full agenda, go to santabarbara.novusagenda. com/AgendaPublic.

TRAFFIC, CRIME AND FIRE BLOTTER Loma Fire 95% contained SANTA BARBARA — The Loma Fire is 95% as of Sunday, and firefighters are expected to be on site until this evening. Loma Alta Drive is closed today while crews clean up debris that has rolled onto the roadway. The Santa Barbara Fire Department attributes the quick containment to a robust mutual aid system, bringing outside agencies to Santa Barbara to knock down the fire. The Loma Fire began Thursday night, with a high rate of spread because of wind gusts in excess of 50 miles per hour. Structures on the top and adjacent to

the hillside known as “TV Hill” were compromised, and residents evacuated. The incident garnered 22 fire engines from Santa Barbara City, Santa Barbara County, Montecito, Carpinteria-Summerland and Ventura County.

Pandemic put stress on pet owners PETS

Continued from Page A1 and services needed in our county, but together we can form a strong safety net that keeps animals together with their families, in homes rather than shelters.” Animal Services and C.A.R.E.4Paws also have a program that assists pet owners who are inquiring about surrendering their pet to a shelter. A staff member helps the owners access food and veterinary care if they need financial assistance to keep their animal. The pandemic has heightened the needs of pet owners. Since the pandemic’s beginning, C.A.R.E.4Paws has distributed 400,000 pounds of pet food through its Companion Pet Assistance program. This is 100x greater than any previous year’s distribution. Meanwhile, shelters have closed doors and held adoptions by appointment, fostering many pets in homes. “A good part about the COVID19 pandemic is that we have learned so much about how we can make sheltering to be more innovative, more streamlined,” said Ms. Ortega-Wiebe. “Because of COVID, we had to pivot quickly to get the services out there.” Animal Services has provided

drive-through vaccination clinics during the pandemic and thought outside of the shelters’ walls. Soon, it will hold a free microchip clinic, so pet owners can register their dogs through a tiny injectable chip before July 4 (not a dog’s favorite holiday). But, for now, Animal Services is just excited to open the new resource centers. “The Pet Resource Center shelves are filled with food donated by individual community members and local businesses, and we encourage everyone to be a part of this project by continuing to drop off donations at all three shelter locations,” Isabelle Gullo, C.A.R.E.4Paws’ executive director, said in a news release. “Together we can ensure that no cat or dog in our county goes hungry.” Pet resource centers are open for giving and for donations during shelters’ office hours: 9 a.m. to 12:30 and 1:30 to 4:45 p.m. Monday through Friday and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturdays. To find all of C.A.R.E.4Paws’ pet resource centers and access other needs, go to care4paws.org/ petassistance.

Smell, appearance of cannabis operations are at issue CANNABIS

Continued from Page A1

Barbara Coalition for Responsible Cannabis. As the concentration of cannabis operations along Santa Rosa Road continues to grow, it’s provoked anger from vineyard owners and winery managers who say the smell of the cannabis creates a poor environment for customers and the agricultural expansion taints the natural beauty of the Valley. David Lafond, the general manager of Lafond Winery & Vineyards, said he has heard complaints from customers about the smell of cannabis in the area during visits to his business. “It’s tough to have wine tasters in our tasting room when everything smells like skunks,” Mr. Lafond told the News-Press. In addition to the smell, Mr. Lafond said the appearance of the cannabis operations is “completely counter to what (the wine industry) spent 50 years developing.” “Our business is based a lot on tourism and agricultural tourism,” Mr. Lafond said. “People love to come up here and see the agriculture, and the vineyards are very attractive.” Many cannabis growers in the region utilize fences to protect their property and deploy hoop

houses to protect crops from insects and create a greenhouse environment outdoors. Some cannabis operations even hired security guards to stand watch at properties. These security elements and growing mechanisms distract from a natural beauty of the region and is “very disconcerting” to tourist and vineyard visitors, Mr. Lafond said. “I worry about the tourist industry because we’ve worked so hard and the wine industry has worked hard to cultivate the atmosphere and notoriety that people recognize,” Mr. Lafond said. “It’s a beautiful place to come, and the cannabis is not beautiful when it’s covered by hoop houses.” Other winery managers in the area share Mr. Lafond’s concerns. Debra Eagle, the general manager at Alma Rosa Winery and Vineyards, also has concerns that the appearance of the cannabis operations could deter tourists and potential customers from visiting wineries on Santa Rosa Road. Ms. Eagle said the combination of the guards and high security fences deployed by some cannabis operations, including CCA, looks like a “prison.” “How many people after seeing something like that want to come back,” Ms. Eagle told the NewsPress.

SCAR, Howard

MONDAY, MAY 24, 2021

Roy served two years in the Navy in World War II in the South PaciÀc. He was later called into the Marine Corps at the beginning of the Korean conÁict. As a Àrst lieutenant he taught gunnery at Camp Pendleton, then served as a captain in the inactive reserve. After his military service Roy attended Stanford University where he participated on the wrestling team. He graduated in 1949 with a major in economics and a minor in History from Stanford University. He also completed several American Institute of Banking courses. He joined Bank of America in 1951 on a special training program at UCLA executive program on a Bank of American -Giannini Foundation award.

Howard Scar of Montecito passed away at the Casa Dorinda Medical Center on May 15, 2021. He was 90. The cause of death was cancer. Private funeral services were held Wednesday, May 19 and he will be interred at the Montecito Cemetery, next to his wife.

Roy initially served as manager for three Los Angeles area branch operations. He then moved to the B of A headquarters staff in 1954, where he specialized in supervising commercial loan activities. He served a dozen years with B of A in Los Angeles, then in Santa Barbara where he was assigned to their main ofÀce as regional Vice President. In 1963 Santa Barbara became his home.

Howard was born September 24, 1930. Howard grew up in Long Island, New York, the son of Frank and Bertha Scar. He graduated with a BS in Business Administration from Ohio Wesleyan University where he played varsity football, and later earned a Master’s degree. After serving on active duty in the U.S. Army from 1954 to 1956, he married the former Ethel Schechter in 1958, and the two moved to the San Fernando Valley California the same year, where Howard worked for RCA. Their son, Michael, was born in 1959 and their daughter, Susan, in 1960.

Roy joined the Bank of California in 1964 as senior loan ofÀcer and Vice President, commuting to Los Angeles to help organize 15 new, independent banks. After commuting for a year, Roy was named a vice president Santa Barbara National Bank. In 1967 he won “thesis with distinction” honors for his studies at the Graduate School of Banking at Southern Methodist University, Dallas. In 1968 Roy joined the main ofÀce of the Crocker-Citizens National Bank as vice president and assistant manager.

Howard had always wanted his own business. In 1971 he launched an advertising specialty manufacturing and distribution Àrm, Howard Eldon LTD. and won the Walt Disney specialty contract. Many of the original Disney character drawings decorate his ofÀce at the Casa. He and Ethel traveled the world, making business connections and friends while locating jewelry sources. Upon his retirement in 1994, the couple moved to Montecito, eventually settling in the Casa Dorinda in 2010. They had celebrated their 60th anniversary when Ethel passed away in 2018.

Roy continued his education throughout his life with Post Graduate work at Wharton School of Business and Harvard. In 1975 Roy and Myrna moved back to Santa Barbara to help open a new bank: Bank of Montecito, now known as Montecito Bank &Trust. He later became Vice President, Private Banking Division, with Santa Barbara Bank and Trust in their wealth management division, before retiring in 2008.

Howard and four friends, Los Cincos Lobos, made wines which he donated to local charities. The head nurse at Casa Dorinda recounts that when people were sheltering in place in the Medical Center during the Àre, Howie brought a case of wine and the residents had such a good time that when the Àre marshal told them they could go back to their apartments, no one wanted to leave.

His move with Crocker Bank to Stockton is where he met and married his wife, Myrna.

In the Ànal years of his life, he continued as a trustee of the Henry W. Bull Foundation.

Howard and Ethel were active in community organizations and gave to local charities such as The Santa Barbara Foundation and B’nai B’rith.

Roy appreciated the opportunity of being asked to help and was always an active volunteer in his community beginning as a Community Chest worker and Red Cross worker. Among his many charitable activities were Santa Barbara County Heart Association and chairman of the Heart Fund; County Savings Bonds Advisory Committee for the Treasury Department; Board of Directors at Casa Dorinda; Past President and Director, Lifetime Honorary Trustee of the Santa Barbara Trust for Historic Preservation; Past Director, Chairman, Vice Chairman, Secretary for Santa Barbara County Employees Retirement association: Past Director Santa Barbara Reginal Health Authority; Past Director Easy Lift Transportation; Past Director and Àrst President Santa Barbara County Sheriffs Council; Past Director Casa Del Herrero; advisory board member of the Boys and Girls Club of Santa Barbara; Treasurer, Home Owners’ Defense Fund; member, Honorary Member Friendship Center.

He is survived by his son Michael, daughter Susan, daughter-in-law Suzanne, grandson Danny Waxwing, granddaughter Madison Scar, sisters-in-law Gloria Scar and Myrna Walton, nephew Zachary Walton, and nieces Diane Scar and Nancy Scar.

He also made exquisite jewelry and taught jewelry classes at Casa Dorinda. He had sculpted as a student, and took it up again in retirement. He and Ethel spent a month in Carrara, Italy in 2017, working with marble. In his spare time he was a happy golfer and avid player of bocce ball.

KOSTER, Ken

Ken Koster passed away in his home surrounded by family on Tuesday, May 18th at 11:00 pm. Born in Munich, Germany on January 19th, 1964 and moved to Santa Barbara, California when is was 2 years old, he was a true Santa Barbarian. Ken attended and graduated from Santa Barbara High School in 1982, and received his AA after. In 1984 he moved to Oahu, Hawaii and worked in event planning. Soon after he returned to Santa Barbara to start his grassroots tree company, Quality Tree Care. In 1992, Ken married his wife Sue and together they grew the company. Being the 3rd oldest licensed tree company in Santa Barbara, they ultimately bough a 4-acre tropical nursery together which has been home to their family and Quality Tree Care for the past 21 years. There he focused on cultivating rare tropicals and palm trees, always making sure that his nursery was ever growing. Ken’s creativity led him to diversify his business to include full service landscaping. He was very well respected by the community for his love and knowledge of trees. Now 38 years in the business Ken’s vision of being able to pass his legacy down to his family has come true. For the past 18 years Ken had been mentoring his daughter Amanda, teaching her all aspects of the tree business. Taking these experiences with her, she now manages the tree division, while Ken managed the landscape division. Ken received the “Santa Barbara Beautiful Award” in 2019 for his outstanding landscape achievements. In 2020, Quality Tree Care was truly made into a family owned and operated business when his daughter Zoey and son Ethan joined the team. Lead by Ken’s unstoppable ambition, they run the company together today. Ken was a bright man with a huge heart. Nick-named “Boo,” he loved his amazing wife Sue, three children Amanda (34), Zoey (28), Ethan (23), his son-in-law Mitch (32) and beautiful granddaughter Frances Penelope (2), who was named after his mother Penny. He is also survived by his father Paul Koster, stepmother, Janine, and brothers Keith and Jason. Ken loved rock climbing, motocross, skiing, outrigger canoeing, his many friends and tending to his nursery. Ken’s spirit lives on in the trees and ground beneath our feet, and he will be forever missed. Please join us in celebrating Ken’s life on the following days at Welch-Ryce-Haider Chapel on 450 Ward Memorial Dr., Goleta, CA 93111. Visitation: Sunday, May 23, 2021, 11am - 5pm. Memorial Service: Monday, May 24, 2021, 11am with celebration to follow at 2 El Camino Ratel, Goleta, CA 93117

Family, friends, and colleagues will gather at Birnam Wood Country Club to celebrate Roy’s life when Covid conditions allow. Roy’s family ask that any remembrance be sent to Santa Barbara Trust for Historic Preservation or VNA Health. Think of stepping on shore and Ànding it Heaven, Of taking hold of a hand and Ànding it God’s, Of breathing new air, and Ànding it celestial air, Of feeling invigorated and Ànding it immortality, Of passing from storm and tempest to an unbroken calm, Of waking up and Ànd it Home.

In addition to the appearance, the massive size of the cannabis operations along Santa Rosa Road is a primary concern for Ms. Eagle. Unlike Napa County, where commercial cannabis cultivation is prohibited, or Sonoma County, where strict measures limit the size of cannabis operations, Santa Barbara County does not limit the size of cultivation. Instead, the county requires specific permits depending on proposed grows in urban or rural zones. In zones that the county aims to protect for long-term agricultural use, known as Agricultural II zones, the county requires operators to apply for a conditional use permit if cannabis cultivation takes up more than 51% of a plot of land. But without a limit on acreage, Santa Barbara County has unleashed some massive grows in the Santa Rita Hills, inundating Santa Rosa Road with cannabis operations. In an effort to rein in the cannabis industry’s massive expansion in Santa Barbara County, the Board of Supervisors established a policy that caps the total numbers of acres allowed for cannabis grows at 1,575 acres inland, which excludes any cap on operations in Carpinteria. Gregg Hart, second district supervisor, told the News-Press he believes the cap will give the county “a chance to learn about how the (wine and cannabis) industries can co-exist.” For county officials, finding a way to please agricultural workers in the Santa Ynez Valley comes with a significant revenue boost for the county. Cannabis has quickly become one of the county’s largest sources

of revenue, generating $4.2 million in revenue in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020-2021. In comparison, the wine industry generated $1.7 million in economic impact throughout all of 2020. Currently, the county has approximately 3,005 acres of proposed cannabis projects in the pipeline, about 848 acres of which has been approved, according to Mr. Wilson. However, due to the county’s cap, only 1,575 acres will be allowed to be cultivated at one time. Therefore, other cannabis growers who receive a land use permit will hold on to the clearance until land becomes available. Mr. Hart said he hopes this cap will help to appease the agricultural interests of workers along Santa Rosa Road. Though the relationship between cannabis growers and vineyard owners remains contentious, Mr. Hart said he hears the concerns of winery managers and hopes to find a harmonious balance that appeases both new and existing agricultural operations. “I personally respect (winery manager’s) point of views and have tried to balance the county’s responsibility to protect existing agriculture and provide economic choices for the agricultural community so that they can survive and thrive,” Mr. Hart said. “This isn’t a black and white situation — this is a matter of finding balance and accommodation between all the agricultural interests in the country. That’s why we have amended the regulation significantly to accommodate those concerns.” email: mhirneisen@newspress.com

S. sends me a silver dresser set that was a gift to her grandparents in 1900 from the Sturtevant Family of Framingham, Mass., a famous, indeed giant, name in the history of agriculture. Edward Lewis Sturtevant (1842-1898), with his brothers, on a farm of 200 acres in Framingham, developed a study farm, from which resulted his book, “Edible Plants of the World” of 1919; his daughter, whom, I suspect, was the gifter of D.S.’s grandparent’s set, Gracie, was herself a notable artist and botanist who specialized in the bearded iris. (The family archives are in the Missouri Botanic Garden Library.) Why a dresser set for a wedding? This is because it was de rigueur for any real lady’s dresser. And the number of implements indicated just how aristocratic a lady was. These days, when I take out my plastic, tangled Conair brush and plastic comb, and fish for a tooth brush

This silver dresser set is something rare each morning, I am reminded of the great days when a vanity contained such splendor that a plastic comb, if there was plastic in those days, would have been despised. What did a dresser set entail? The heyday of the dresser set was the turn of the last century when you could gift your child a dresser set, your wife, or a newly married lady such a thing. It contained almost everything for grooming: a nail buffer, a brush or two, combs with tortoise shell teeth, a grand mirror with repoussé design containing a beveled mirror and “silvered” glass (difficult to replace these days), a few sizes of powder jars that were made of cut crystal with sterling lids, two sizes of lint brushes; one for cotton, with a flat head, one rounded for wool; perfume bottles with sterling topper, a cuticle knife, and a few

nail files, trinket boxes, and a pin box, and sometimes a hat pin stand. So, the entire wonderful gleaming set could be spread out quite effectively on the dresser and what might be better, on your own sit–down vanity, but nowadays, to find one that is fairly complete is RARE. So, D.S. has a nice little treasure. D.S.’s set is almost complete, and she asks, “Now that I don’t have the bandwidth to display this a treasure, what can I do with the set?” I responded that perhaps she could invest in a customer framer’s craft piece of a Lucite shadow box that had a sleeve so she could polish the set once a year. She responded by asking, “If I can’t do that, how should I store the set?” I replied, “D.S.!!! NOT in BAGGIES or any kind of plastic, as that will severely harm the silver. Those felt bags that we used to have for our silver tableware are the best for

storage.” Kings and noble people had massive dresser sets, and I mentioned that the rare Tiffany dresser set that sold in 2017 at Rago auctions which was 24 karat gold, and consisted of body powder cylinders, a few scent bottles, a soap dish, and the above “ingredients” of brushes, mirror, combs, cuticle knife, files and so on; it sold for over $20,000. Kings and queens and those that thought that they should be kings and queens had dresser sets that included a standing mirror around which may be clustered gold or silver candle wicks for those inevitable night make-up sessions before the ball, along with a little coffee pot, a creamer and sugar bowl, and a little dish for a small snack, along with the “ingredients” previously mentioned. Usually these grand sets were “crested” with the family insignia; D.S.’s is monogrammed. D.S. writes that her Please see GOLD DIGGER on B2

Santa Barbara Education Foundation gears up for Summer STEAM camps SANTA BARBARA — The Santa Barbara Education Foundation has opened registration for STEAM camps, an innovative science camp experience for incoming students in sixth through eighth grade. The camps offer students the chance to explore the fields of robotics, coding, art and culinary through topic-specific sessions that will run June 14 through 18 and June 21 through 25. In the “Portraits and Painting” camp, students will learn how to compose portraits, work with acrylic paint and explore color theory. Another art session, the “Printers Camp” will focus on creating stamps and block prints. During the “Robotics Camp,” students will learn how to build state-of-the-art robots and learn basic coding principles to engage with their unique bots. The two sessions of “Robotics Camp” offer opportunities for both beginners and experienced students. This year’s camp sessions also include two installments of “Cooking 101,” one of the foundation’s newest experiences. The first week of sessions is titled “Tour the Mediterranean,” where students will learn how to make dishes like pizza, pasta and hummus. Then, the second week of sessions is “Sweets Week,” which will teach dessert lovers how to satisfy their sweet tooth

Righetti economics students get recognition SANTA MARIA — U.S. Rep. Salud Carbajal, D-Santa Barbara, recently paid a Zoom visit to Righetti High School economic classes after their success in a competition. Classes at the Santa Maria school participate every semester in an investment game, where each student team is given $100,000 to invest. Last fall, Righetti finished as the second highest school in the 24th Congressional District. After that ranking, the team was chosen to participate in the Capitol Hill Challenge this spring.

The CHS is for the nation’s top 870 schools. “I really enjoyed how much Salud Carbajal told us to keep on searching for opportunities to open doors for us and to have many goals in our lives,’’ senior Madelyne Soto-Gomez said in a news release. “It’s amazing how he came to the United States at 5 years old from Mexico and now helps shape us into a better community.’’ Teacher Joe Graack said RIghetti is honored to be recognized for its financial education.

“Our financial education unit includes covering such topics as 401 retirement accounts, diversification strategies involving stocks, corporate bonds, government bonds and mutual funds. Lastly, we teach students how to file their state and federal tax returns. It is an exciting opportunity for our students to meet with Congressman Carbajal and inquire about policymaking, his support of financial education in schools and capital markets.’’ — Dave Mason

The value of such a set is $1,000, and if it needs at one point to be repaired, the repair (such as to the mirror, the tortoise shell comb, the pounding out of dents) could be JUST as expensive, but I would consider it worthwhile. The finest sets, in my opinion, are the Art Nouveau sets, which usually feature a semi naked woman with flowing hair, a mixture of

naturalism and erotica, peculiar to the Art Nouveau period (19011925).

Venus and Neptune make confusion as you struggle to recognize how you feel about something (or someone). This could seep into the weekend as Mercury retrograde is bound to cause rifts in communication. Just think before you speak, Aries.

your communication zone… while Mercury is about to turn retrograde?? Get your point across now before this happens. Once the weekend hits, you won’t make much progress in communicating your needs.

Scorpio

The lunar eclipse is happening in your intimacy zone, Taurus. What’s that mean? It looks like it’s time to cut ties with someone who isn’t serving your highest good. Use the eclipse energy to your advantage and oust what isn’t working.

The lunar eclipse is highlighting your sector of value. Do you have enough self-worth, Scorpio? Are you bringing enough to the table? It could be a bit of a heavy week for you because of this. Mercury turns retrograde in your intimacy zone—so “the mood” in the bedroom might be stunted for a bit.

Gemini

Sagittarius

Your relationship zone is being highlighted, Gemini. Be careful when you bring up issues with bae. Your partner might not see things the way you do—especially with Mercury turning retrograde in your sign. Stay in over the weekend.

Don’t start anything new this week. More than that, let go of perfection as it relates to your partner, Sagittarius. Neptune and Venus are making things hazy in that area. And you want to get ahead of it,before Mercury turns retrograde.

Cancer

Capricorn

It’s time to stop procrastinating, Cancer. If you’ve been avoiding a task or issue, isn’t it time to face it head on? When Venus and Neptune square one another, secrets may arise. And this is the perfect time to address those issues.

Keep a low profile this week, Capricorn. The eclipse is making things wild. The NeptuneVenus square this week doesn’t help much, as confusion and misunderstandings could take place. And that’s beforeMercury turns retrograde in your routine sector!

Taurus

Leo You might be prone to saying something that will come back to bite you later, Leo. That, plus the fact that Venus and Neptune might make your relationships a little shaky are all things that could let your words get the better of you.

Virgo Stay home this week, Virgo. The eclipse is bringing out all kinds of drama! This is especially true when we’re talking about family. Your love and career life could also take a hit when the VenusNeptune square arises in your relational zone.

Libra Watch out, Libra. The lunar eclipse is directly hitting

The lunar eclipse hits your friendship zone, Aquarius. Something is finally being granted to you! But the Venus-Neptune square could cause hurt feelings and issues of self-worth. Mercury retrograde is hitting your pleasure zone. So, mixed signals or issues with sharing feelings might appear over the next four weeks.

As a Pisces, you’re used to Neptune’s confusing energy. That may be why you’ll be okay when family issues arise due to the Neptune-Venus square. More family drama hits though when Mercury turns retrograde in your home zone.

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.

Righetti teachers write about environment SANTA BARBARA NEWS-PRESS

SANTA MARIA — Righetti High School science teachers Laura Branch and Rebecca Wingerden recently co-wrote “From Local to Global, Calculating and Appreciating the Values of Trees and Forests.” The Santa Maria teachers’ article was recently published in the Science Teacher Magazine through the National Science Teaching Association. You’ll find the article at nsta.org/science-teacher/scienceteacher-mayjune-2021/local-global. This article highlights work the two educators have been doing within the CTE Environmental Resources Pathway. Their goal is to teach students about the importance of carbon sinks. A carbon sink is anything that absorbs more carbon from the atmosphere than it releases – for example, plants, oceans and soil. Students collected data to determine how much carbon is in a tree lab. The results are at rwingerden.com/ecodatum. “Incorporating climate science into teaching is extremely important for students and our planet,’’ Ms. Branch said in a news release. “Why? Students are our next generation. They are our future. They must work to solve climate issues to heal the earth and live sustainably so there is a habitable earth for their children.” — Dave Mason

Lompoc brings refrigeration program back By GRAYCE MCCORMICK NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

The city of Lompoc is bringing back the Keep Your Cool Commercial Refrigeration Energy Efficiency Program in June to encourage commercial business owners to retrofit inefficient refrigeration equipment. The city will be sponsoring these upgrades, covering up to 100% of new equipment and installation costs. Inefficient, dated refrigeration equipment can be costly for business owners, potentially adding thousands of dollars toward monthly energy bills, so upgrading refrigeration equipment can help businesses increase the lifespan of equipment, while saving energy and money.
