Candidates report signs are stolen Dismay expressed over thefts on private property NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

ELECTION 2020

Several local candidates in Tuesday’s election were displeased to find out their signs on private property around town have been repeatedly stolen.

This included two candidates for the Santa Barbara Unified School District Board of Education, one candidate running for Goleta City Council and one for Carpinteria City Council.

Elrawd MacLearn, who is running for the Santa Barbara Unified board, told the NewsPress that approximately 100 of his campaign signs have been removed from where they were placed.

Considering that Mr. MacLearn’s campaign budget is in the thousands of dollars, that his large campaign signs featuring both him and fellow candidate Brian Campbell cost about $15 and that his smaller campaign signs are around $9, 100 missing signs isn’t small potatoes to him.

“They’re starting to make a dent in real money we’ve spent,” he told the News-Press.

Though he wasn’t pleased with the disrespect displayed by those who have stolen his campaign signs, Mr. MacLearn said such actions are a sign that his political opponents view him as enough of a “contender” to resort to theft and that they are “indicative of my campaign success in this election.”

Mr. MacLearn is running for the school board with the goal of turning the administration’s focus away from ethnic studies and sex ed and back to the basics of reading, writing and arithmetic.

He said of the board’s current focus on social issues, “Not to say that those things aren’t important, but if we don’t have the basics in our district, then we can’t even begin to talk about social issues if we have kids who can’t read and don’t understand math.”

Because he takes people stealing his signs as an indication of his campaign’s effectiveness,

Mr. MacLearn is only encouraged to press forward on the home stretch leading up to Election Day. “It really galvanizes me to push harder in these last three days here and win this race,” he said.

Because campaign sign theft has become such a problem, Mr. MacLearn’s campaign has had to find alternative uses for its remaining signs.

The solution his campaign found was holding “pop-ups,” during which he and his team go to shopping centers with signs in their hands and chat with the public.

He said he will “most definitely” be doing pop-ups around town the next couple days.

Santa Barbara Unified candidate Brian Campbell told the News-Press that it was “a shame” that people would steal campaign signs off of his supporters’ property and thereby interfere with their freedom of speech.

Mr. Campbell gave the NewsPress a clip of home security footage that shows what appears to be a woman stealing one of his lawn signs from in front of a supporter’s house, throwing the sign into the back seat of a white SUV, and getting in the passenger seat of the SUV, which takes off thereafter.

“I am disappointed by those that blatantly steal signs,” he stated.

“These ‘adults’ set bad examples for our youth by not allowing other people to have a different opinion and express their constitutional right, freedom of speech.”

In a frenzy of costumes, decorations, music and a lot of Halloween spirit, students of Santa Ynez Elementary trick-ortreated on campus and saw their teachers face-to-face for the first time in a long time.

After hearing that the Cold Spring School District got a costume parade and trick-ortreating approved, teachers, staff and the administration of Santa Ynez Elementary School hopped on the opportunity to throw a Halloween celebration together

for their students.

Friday afternoon, students from kindergarten through eighth grade donned their Halloween costumes and came to campus in their respective time slots, with 20 minutes for each grade.

When students and their parents arrived, they received temperature checks, walked through the quad hallways of campus and met each teacher at their doorways. Soon after the first time slot, skeletons, witches, princesses, sports players and superheroes were buzzing around campus, socially distanced.

Their teachers, also dressed up, slid small, pre-packaged treats down 6.5-foot long chutes made from PVP piping.

“I’ve never seen kids so excited to be back in a school environment,” Maurene Donner, the principal/superintendent, said. “We thought this would be a great opportunity for kids to get dressed up, have a little bit of normalcy and just feel like they’re kids again.”

She said that while her students have been “resilient and adaptive” to online learning,

connectivity issues and lack of assistance at home have made it challenging.

However, small cohorts of students have started to return to in-person learning, and Monday will be day one back to school for kindergarten through third grade, with a noon dismissal five days a week.

Ms. Donner said she hopes to have better student success as they return in person.

Santa Barbara County’s 35 inperson polling locations open for in-person voting today. Hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

They will also be open during the same hours on Sunday, between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. on Monday, and 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Election Day. All polling locations will have full-on COVID-19 safety protocols, said Joe Holland, Santa Barbara County registrar of voters, clerk, recorder and assessor. This includes mask requirements, poll workers behind plexiglass barriers and steps such as cleaning booths after each voter.

Floors are also being marked so voters stand six feet of social distance between each other.

In addition to the 35 polling locations, there will also be 30 dropboxes in which voters can drop their mail-in ballots.

Though those who have yet to vote can go to a polling place to cast their vote in person if they

wish, Mr. Holland recommends that voters fill out their mailin ballot at home and drop it off at the polling locations without actually going inside. Additionally, he suggested voters not use the U.S. Postal Service to send their ballots this late in the election season.

“This close to the election, drop it off at one of our 65 locations,” he advised.

He added that electioneering within 100 feet of a polling place is not allowed. This includes holding campaign signs, telling passersby to vote by a certain candidate, or wearing a T-shirt supporting a particular candidate.

According to Mr. Holland, slogans such as “Make America Great Again” and “Black Lives Matter” do not count as electioneering.

As of Friday, Santa Barbara County had received 117,000 ballots, more than half of the county’s 235,000 registered voters. email: jgrega@newspress.com

City addresses state of Santa Barbara Leaders highlight collaboration amid COVID-19

By GRAYCE MCCORMICK NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

The Santa Barbara South Coast Chamber of Commerce hosted a virtual State of the City address Friday morning for Santa Barbara.

City leaders reflected on the collaboration between city leadership, businesses and nonprofits when the COVID-19 pandemic hit, and the innovative actions taken to save small businesses.

Santa Barbara Mayor Cathy Murillo, City Administrator Paul Casey and City Economic Development Manager Jason Harris provided a summary of the city’s economy since the start of the pandemic.

They also discussed planned projects and the next steps as the city approaches additional reopenings.

“To say that this has been a challenging year does not give significant recognition to the global impact COVID-19 has caused,” Mayor Murillo said. “But Santa Barbara is resilient.”

She mentioned the city’s partnership with United Way that provided small business grants, the business advisory task force, closing lower State Street, emergency food distribution and other emergency actions the city took in March.

“This is a city of determined and hardworking people and we have recovered from past disasters,” the mayor said. “We will recover from this one better, stronger and united.”

In addition, she reflected on the civil unrest that occurred

over the summer regarding the death of George Floyd, as well as examples of how Santa Barbara has addressed both racial and social inequality. She noted efforts included work toward creating a civilian review board for the Santa Barbara Police Department and the decision to rename Indio Muerto Street, among others.

Mayor Murillo covered new initiatives to address homelessness, such as a partnership between Santa Barbara Connect Home and Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital, the police department, Santa Barbara Housing Authority and PATH (a homeless shelter) to identify needs of the population.

She added that the three months of rental assistance provided by the Community Development Block Grants prevented vulnerable residents from falling into homelessness.

The mayor spoke to the average unit density incentive program for new rental housing, which provided 436 new units in the last seven years, with another 302 approved in the future, and the updated accessory dwelling unit standards, which has resulted in 350 ADUs so far.

Finally, Mayor Murillo mentioned plans for 2021 and 2022 involving the Cabrillo Pavilion, the just recently approved Bikeshare program, upgrades to the State Street underpass, park and facility renovation projects,and the future Library Plaza.

“Santa Barbara remains resilient and strong,” she concluded. “Together we will persevere through the challenges

ahead.”

City Administrator Paul Casey echoed the perseverance of the city amid the layoffs and hiring chill of the pandemic.

He outlined the Economic Recovery Ordinance that supported the reopening of many businesses by relaxing certain restrictions and allowing small businesses to operate outdoors.

Mr. Casey also announced his current recruiting for a new community development director, assistant city administrator and fire chief.

Finally, Economic Development Manager Jason Harris, who started his new position the day the city shut down economic activity during the pandemic, spoke to the city’s innovative economic development plan.

“The pandemic has tested our wills in more ways than one, but I’ve been awed by the sheer determination of Santa Barbara,” he said.

Mr. Harris highlighted the Santa Barbara Better Together Fund which provided $150,000 to small businesses in the community, along with the collaboration of the South Coast Chamber, the Downtown Santa Barbara Organization, Visit Santa Barbara and others for assisting businesses.

This State of the City was the second of a four-part series.

Carpinteria was featured in September, and the State of Goleta will occur Nov. 20, followed by the first-ever State of the County on Dec. 11.

CERT volunteer Peter Omoregie provides assistance to the owner of Choi’s Oriental Market, helping him reopen his business in Goleta.

By GRAYCE MCCORMICK NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Numerous members of the Goleta Community Emergency Response Team have taken on a new role to help businesses reopen during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Volunteers trained to prepare and respond to emergencies are now Goleta Business Ambassadors, going from business to business and giving them advice on how to safely reopen complying with COVID-19 guidance.

They joined the Santa Barbara County RISE Ambassador Program to make it all happen, and they’ve successfully served more than 100 businesses, not to mention repeated check-ins.

Michael Baris is Goleta’s emergency services coordinator, and he sends three teams out around the city to provide guidance.

“They’re helping by being someone to double check their business’s work, making sure that all those small details are well-handled by all the businesses,” Mr. Baris told the News-Press. “Whether it’s six feet between chairs and tables, whether it’s tape on the floor or it’s making sure face coverings are worn, it’s just all the odds and ends.”

He said the ambassadors provide educational and CERT volunteers Peter Omoregie and Cecilia Herrera give advice to Dr. Luke Werkhoven on maintaining safety in his office, Eye & Vision Care.

suggestive help, rather than enforcement.

“We understand that our businesses are doing their best out here,” he said. “It’s not their area of expertise, which makes sense. No one has gone through this before, so we’re just there to give a little extra insight.”

The volunteers have received a lot of positive feedback, according to Mr. Baris, and they’ve provided a familiar face for the businesses navigating this difficult time.

“We keep track of our notes and try to see how people have progressed. Over 90% of the time, the managers and owners are happy for the advice and didn’t know something about a specific topic,” he said. “It’s all those tiny details that are so hard to memorize nowadays.”

More than 300 volunteers have graduated from CERT, and ambassadors fluctuate and come in and out, but there are always three teams ready to offer their help.

“It’s great to be part of a countywide effort to put everyone in as good of a place as possible,” Mr. Baris concluded.

Halloween spirit during a pandemic in which fans have largely been restricted to virtual gatherings. For the first time in a long time, 100,000-plus fans didn’t gather as usual this summer at San Diego Comic Con, and comic book enthusiasts are feeling more isolated than usual. “As we all know, it’s been a rough year for everyone, and our community has been hit pretty hard with no comic conventions,�

Mr. Wong said. “When restrictions were lifted a bit, we decided to hold a parking lot sale. “We held our first Bizarre

Bizaar in September and invited local vendors and artists to come out and sell, if they felt safe enough to do so,� he said. “Of course, we had to have it on Halloween, which happens to be on a Saturday this year,� he said.

Mr. Wong said face masks and social distancing will be required and that he hopes to see families as well as people wanting to dress up for Halloween. “We want to have fun, most of all, in bringing the community together.� email: dmason@nwespress.com

The joy and excitement radiating from the staff was indeed apparent. Teachers didn’t hold back on dressing up, and students saw them as everything from a taco to a penguin to a kangaroo. “I know this is a hard time for the students,� Rebecca Reno, the school psychologist dressed up as a witch, told the News-Press. “We like to bring them a little joy and a little fun because right now is the time to concentrate on not academics, but having a good time. “I’m a school psychologist so I know what this is doing to their mental health. This is very important that they have normalcy as much as we can give them.�

While masks covered up the smiles of the students, parents and teachers, the sound of laughter came through. “Most of the Halloween festivities countywide have been canceled, and most families won’t be trick-or-treating,� Anthony Bruemmer, a fourth-grade teacher dressed up as Batman, told the News-Press. “It’s just a great opportunity for kids to be kids, to get to dress up and wear their costumes and enjoy their childhood through these crazy times.�

Checketts vetting a veteran roster in UCSB baseball workouts

By MARK PATTON NEWS-PRESS SENIOR WRITER

Dozens of familiar faces have been working out under some very unfamiliar baseball conditions the last two weeks at UCSB’s Caesar Uyesaka Stadium. “We’ve essentially got everybody back from last year,� said Andrew Checketts, who is gearing up for his 10th season as Gaucho coach. “Everything has been really fluid, and there’s been a lot of adjusting, but we’re used to that during the fall. “We’ve just had to add one more layer with all the safety protocols that are involved in working in groups.�

Of the 40 players who have come out for fall drills, 28 saw action last year.

The COVID-19 pandemic, which brought last season to an abrupt stop after UCSB’s 13-2 start, prompted the NCAA to grant seniors an extra season of eligibility.

A pair of Gauchos— starting shortstop McClain O’Connor and pitcher Conner Dand — have taken advantage of the waiver and returned to school. Dand is now attending graduate school.

The coronavirus also prompted Major League Baseball to reduce last June’s Amateur Draft from 40 rounds to five.

All minor league competition was canceled, as well. That stirred many draft-eligible Gauchos such as front-line pitchers Zach Torra, Jorge Arellano and Conner Roberts, as well as starting field players Marcos Castanon and Jason Willow, to also return to UCSB. Torra, a lefthander from Santa Ynez, made the most of last year’s abbreviated season with a winloss record of 3-0 and earned-run average of 0.36 with 39 strikeouts in 25 1/3 innings. Although undrafted, he did receive freeagent offers from several MLB general managers. “I was pretty nervous about that,� Checketts said. “There was about a 24-hour period where I thought we were going to lose him.�

The $20,000 cap on free-agent signings convinced Torra to rejoin a pitching staff that Checketts said remained in remarkably good shape during the coronavirus lockdown. “Across the board, our returners maximized their down time,� he said. “Our bullpen was flat-out aggressive about it. “Most of the pitchers put on good weight, added velocity and fine-tuned some of their pitches.�

Right-hander Michael McGreevy, one of UCSB’s top relievers as a freshman, went 2-0 as a sophomore starter last year while posting a 0.99 ERA with 26 strikeouts in 27 1/3 innings. He’s stepped up his game even more this fall, Checketts observed. “He hit 96 mph the other day, and it’s not like he’s touching 93 and 94 only once in a while,� he said. “He’s been pretty consistent, and that’s hard to do when you’re only throwing in the bullpen without a lot of adrenalin. “Conner Dand (two saves, 1.23 ERA last year) is up to 94 mph in his bullpens. Chris Troye is up to 94, too, after coming back from elbow surgery, and Rodney Boone (2-1, 2.53 ERA, 31 strikeouts in 21 1/3 innings) has added to his velocity, as well.�

Junior lefthander Jorge Arellano has also stood out. “He’s made a little arm-slot adjustment to three-quarters, has built up his strength, and he’s looked just fantastic,� Checketts said.

Strong pitching allowed UCSB to get off to last season’s fast start.

The Gauchos had a team ERA of 1.84 with 161 strikeouts in just 137 innings while posting five of its 13 wins against Pac-12 competition.

He’s added a few other strong arms, including righthander Clayton Hall, a transfer from Merced College who has “been up to 94, 95 mph and could be a key reliever for us,� Checketts said.

UCSB batted only .237 as a team, but Checketts credited much of that to the stellar pitching

it faced from the likes of topranked UCLA, No. 25 Oregon State, and California.

Willow, who moved from third base to right field last year, hit just .213 but was “basically swinging one-handed because of a shoulder issue ‌ He looks healthy now, which is awesome,â€? Checketts said.

O’Connor and Castanon are back in a crowded middle infield.

The young talent includes redshirt freshman Jordan Sprinkle and true freshman Leo Mosby. Santa Barbara High graduate Nick Oakley has also joined the mix.

Bryce Willits, a transfer from St. Mary’s, will compete at third base with returning starter Cole Cummings. Willits batted .345 to earn Freshman All-America honors for the Gaels but sat out last season after shoulder surgery. “He’s a very physical, lefthanded hitter who moves really well,� Checketts said. “He’s a middle-of-the-order type of hitter.�

He could also move one of them to first base to compete against two-year starter Kyle Johnson.

The battle for the catcher position should also be intense with returning players Mason Eng (.400), Gianni Bloom (.250), Ventura College transfer Omar Gastelum and incoming freshman John Newman from Los Alamitos.

Since COVID-19 protocol requires the Gauchos to remain in small groups, Checketts has kept the younger players as cohorts since they also live together. “The younger groups are a little more challenging for the coaches,� he said. “We have to repeat ourselves four times in four different groups. It’s been easier for those older guys coming back, knowing the systems and the things that are in place.�

But he still has been impressed with Newman and another true freshman, Zach Rodriguez, who played infield at Vista Murrieta High but will probably see more time in the outfield this season. “They look more like 30-yearolds,� Checketts said. “They’re both strong and show really good bat speed and power. We still have to see what they can do against D1 pitching.�

The outfield is crowded, as well, with the return of Willow, Christian Kirtley, Steele Ledford, Nick Vogt, and Michael Marsh.

Kirtley, who experimented at catcher last year, is continuing that attempt this year. Broc Mortensen, a former football star at Ventura High, opened the Gauchos’ eyes as a baseball outfielder for Cuesta College. “He’s a left-handed, slashertype hitter who’s really improved,�

Checketts said. “He’s a good runner and very athletic.�

A lot remains up in the air, however, before UCSB opens its season on Feb. 19 with a three-

Carpinteria announces Rincon Multi-Use Trail

By GRAYCE MCCORMICK NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

The city of Carpinteria announced a notice of preparing for an environmental impact report for the Carpinteria Rincon Multi-Use Trail.

The trail would extend from the eastern end of Carpinteria Avenue to Rincon Beach County Park in Santa Barbara County.

The shared-use trail would be 16 feet wide, a 10-foot wide path

with 3-foot wide paved shoulder on both sides and approximately 2,800 feet long.

It would also include a 160-foot long, 14- to 16-foot wide, clearspan bridge over the UPRR alignment.

The earthwork for the trail construction would require 104,000 cubic yards of cut, 10,300 used for fill on-site and 94,100 to be exported off-site. Also proposed is a storm drainage collection system.

The project aims to improve public safety, provide improved public coastal access and recreational opportunities and enhance non-vehicular travel alternatives.

The city determined that the project could potentially impact the following: aesthetics, biological resources, geology and soils, cultural resources, hazards and hazardous materials, tribal and cultural resources, air quality/greenhouse gas emissions,

hydrology/water quality, noise and recreation.

Carpinteria is encouraging the public to provide written comment on the project through Nov. 30.

Residents can mail their comments to: Nick Bobroff, City of Carpinteria, 5775 Carpinteria Ave., Carpinteria 93013, or email them to nickb@ci.carpinteria.ca.us.

All documents on the project can be viewed at carpinteria. ca.us/public-works/engineeringdivision/rincon-multi-use-trail.

Natural history museum salutes Halloween

There will also be a scoping meeting to solicit oral and written comments from interested parties requesting notice, responsible agencies, agencies with jurisdiction by law, trustee agencies and involved federal agencies.

The virtual meeting will be at 4:30 p.m. Nov. 17 via Zoom. It can be viewed at us02web.zoom. us/j/85412486344.

SANTA BARBARA — “Museum Mysteries: Halloween” is the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History’s proof that there are ways to have fun and spark joy, even during challenging times.

The event features two weekends of festivities for families, which includes “The Case of the Hidden Fossil” through Sunday at the museum, 2559 Puesta del Sol Road.

“The Case of Missing Max” last weekend was a sell-out.

Families are being urged to come in costume to enjoy the museum, which is decorated for Halloween with even more bats and spiders than usual.

Included in the activities will be bottle rocket launches, spooky science experiments, games and more.

Guests can purchase clue kits to turn the visit into a cryptic adventure, revealing and decoding hidden messages and following a scavenger hunt.

Limited availability clue kits include two secret message magnifying glasses, an invisible ink pen, UV light, clues, evidence container, take-home activity and a reusable bag.

The event is free for museum members and included in museum admission for nonmembers. Reservations are required.

For more information, visit sbnature.org.

SIGNS

Continued from Page A1 Press that campaign signs getting stolen has been a problem for her as well. In certain locations, she said her signs have been stolen as much as three times, and that she has had to replace signs at places such as the lawn of the Old Sizzler Restaurant, the Shell gas station on Hollister Avenue and at AC4 Fitness in Goleta.

She added that it was noticeable that whereas her signs have been stolen again and again, other candidates’ signs that stood beside her in these locations haven’t been touched. Though she doesn’t prefer to think that it could be a racially driven slight, she finds it curious that this has only happened to her.

“I don’t like to think that it was racist or because I’m African American, but of course, I feel singled out,” she said.

Carpinteria City Council candidate Mark McIntire had a similar story to tell. A frequent customer of Tyler’s Donuts in Carpinteria, Mr. McIntire put a campaign sign and two campaign pamphlets in the front shop’s window. When he went in on Friday morning, Mr. McIntire was surprised to hear from the shop owner that somebody had removed his campaign materials.

Though understandably unpleased about his campaign

signs getting stolen, Mr. McIntire shared Mr. MacLearn’s view that this indicates his opponents fear he might succeed.

“They’re concerned. They hear the footsteps of the conservative libertarians coming down the hallway at them,” he said.

He added that the unlawful removal of campaign signs carries a criminal penalty of a $1,000 fine or up to six months imprisonment. email: jgrega@newspress.com

TONELLO, Edo

Edo Tonello, a loving husband and father, passed away on October 21, 2020 just a few months shy of turning 91.

He was born to Italian immigrant parents, Rosina and Giuseppe, in Susanville, California. He spent a happy childhood in the close-knit community with his older siblings and neighborhood friends. They enjoyed the simple pleasures of swimming, fishing, sledding, building toys, doing chores, and the camaraderie of small-town life.

Edo moved to Santa Barbara with his family in 1944.

He attended and graduated from Santa Barbara High School. He met his wife, Bruna, the last week of their senior year. Their first date was to the senior prom. They married on October 31, 1954.

Together, they raised three children.

After graduating from high school, Edo spent over 40 years in banking. At Security Pacific Bank, which later became Bank of America, he progressed through many positions, starting as a bookkeeper and ending as Vice President. As a branch manager at many different locations, he supervised staff and helped many secure loans for homes and other endeavors.

His early banking years were briefly interrupted by two years of service in the U.S. Army. Stationed in Okinawa, he was proud to serve his country.

Edo was also proud of the home he provided for his family and where he lived for over 65 years. He helped lay the foundation, built many walls on the property, and lovingly cared for the home. He spent many hours enjoying the view of the city and ocean.

KERN, Richard M. “Dick”

Richard “Dick” Kern of Churchill’s Jewelers in Santa Barbara died peacefully at home on October 8, 2020 surrounded by his family.

Dick was born December 19, 1922 in Santa Barbara to Joseph and Irma Kern, who had moved to Santa Barbara from New York City. While attending Santa Barbara High School, Dick began working for Roy Churchill after school. He was still working at the shop and had finished one year of college at Santa Barbara State College (later named UCSB) when he entered military service and fought with the 76th Infantry Division in Europe as a member of General Patton’s Third Army at the Battle of the Bulge.

Upon returning, Dick went back to work at Churchill’s and also graduated from UCSB with a B.A. in Industrial Science. In 1947 Dick married Dorothy Willson and the couple welcomed triplets in 1955. After Roy Churchill died, Dick purchased the business from his estate. He loved the jewelry business and ran his store successfully for many years with his daughter Lexi Kern Hirst by his side for 43 years. After Dick’s retirement Lexi took over and ran the store. His other daughters are Lee Kern, a professor at Lehigh University, and Lynn Kern Koegel, a professor at Stanford Medical School.

Dick was one of the Optimist Club of Santa Barbara’s charter members. He was very active in the Downtown Organization especially during the planning of the Downtown Revitalization Project. He supported the Jewelry Industry by serving as president and board member of the California Jeweler’s Association, and on the board of Jewelers of America for two terms. He was a member of the Board of Jewelers Mutual Insurance Company for 21 years and was chair for 13 years.

Dick was an avid golfer and longtime member of the Montecito Country Club.

He is survived by Rita, his wife of 36 years, his daughters Lexi Kern Hirst (Ron), Lee Kern (Jack), Lynn Kern Koegel (Bob), stepsons Dar (Teena) and Alex (Monica) Broumand, Grandchildren Ashley, Brittany, Alexa, Taryn, Ryan, Aaron, and Brody.

Dick was a family man, kind, generous, and sometimes uproariously funny. He had a wonderful life and he lived it well.

He will be greatly missed and will live on in our memories.

We want to thank Fidel and Claudia, Dick’s home health aides, as well as VNA Hospice for their excellent and nurturing care.

John William Heaney, passed away peacefully, at home with his wife of 39 years, Kathryn (Rusin) by his side.

John was born in Santa Barbara, CA in 1928 to John Heaney, Sr. (father was originally with Richards, Carrie & Heaney in 1915, which became Heaney, Price & Postel in 1920), and Matilda Arrellanes. On his mothers side, he was considered a “Californio” descendant of Spanish families who first occupied California. John was a member of The National Society of the Sons of the American Revolution.

His great-great-grandfather, Jose Francisco do Ortega, was an officer at the San Diego Presidio before moving to Santa Barbara, where he became Commandant. John was also a member of Los Califorianos. He was a graduate of New Mexico Military Institute and was later commissioned as an officer in Armored Cavalry after graduating from University of California, Berkeley where he took degrees in Political Science & Business Administration. Moving to New York City, he began a career in pharmaceutical advertising & is listed in Who’s Who in Advertising. Taking early retirement in 1991, John & Kathy moved to San Diego, returning to the state he loved so much. There he continued enjoying his many hobbies which included traveling the world, gardening, cruising the back roads with his beloved Miata. John was very involved with St. Paul’s Cathedral, where he leaves many dear friends. His keen sense of humor (he told his Doctor during his last physical, the secret to long life is vodka martinis & cheesburgers!), and kindness will be missed by many.

Casa del Herreroâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s typical annual tradition, Christmas at the Casa, will not be able to occur due to COVID-19.

However, in its place will be an online Christmas boutique silent auction called â&#x20AC;&#x153;Christmas at the Casa: From Our Casa to Yours.â&#x20AC;?

The auction will open Sunday and conclude Nov. 30. It will support Casa del Herrero, located in Montecito.

Silent auction items include decorated Christmas trees by some of Southern Californiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top interior designers, a curated selection of vintage jewelry and elegant antiques, elves to wrap stocking stuffers, and experiences such as a barbecue dinner for 20 at the Casa on George Fox Steedmanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grill, a day at the Rosewood Miramarâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

private club with lunch, an opportunity to cruise the Channel Islands National Park and more.

Funds raised from the event support Casa del Herreroâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ability to complete important conversation projects, maintain the homeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s garden spaces and engage in collaborations that provide education and opportunities for the community.

The support helps keep the Casa doors open to all those wishing to share local history and keep legendary Montecito architect George Washington Smithâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s architecture alive in the community.

HOROSCOPE

ARIES â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Your mind could be going in many directions, Aries.

Direct your energy toward small projects that require intellect. Your energy is likely to come in waves, so use it wisely when you have it, and feel free to take a break when you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t. Tell your boss that you will be much more productive if you have a 20-minute break in the afternoon in order to recharge.

TAURUS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; People will listen to you much more than usual, Taurus. Sometimes when you say something, people hear you but minutes later forget what you said.

Today is different. Your words will penetrate more deeply and end up being disseminated much more widely than ever before. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be stingy with what you have to say.

Give people your full opinion on the situation. Your impact will be significant.

GEMINI â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re apt to disagree sharply with information you receive, Gemini. Perhaps your attitude is a bit selfish, so you arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t able to appreciate ideas that are more humanitarian in nature.

Expand your way of thinking to include the people around you.

You will find that the more you offer yourself to others, the more respected and happier you will be overall.

CANCER â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Climactic events are apt to occur in your life, Cancer. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to condense and solidify your grand schemes and bright ideas in such a way that makes them more practical. Things may be spinning so quickly that you arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t quite sure where to jump on. Worry about that later. For now, what you need to do is express your ideas forcefully and succinctly. Doors will open as a result.

LEO â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to take your communication to the next level, Leo. Expand outward and upward.

For the last three weeks youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve gone through a serious mental process that has helped you define what you stand for and believe in.

Now youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in a phase that urges you to put these ideas into motion.

The expansive quality of the day is profound, so take advantage of it and get moving.

VIRGO â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A new cycle is beginning for you in which you may find yourself throwing away old beliefs and mental processes, Virgo. Out with the old and in with the new. This time of housecleaning is extremely important, for you will find that the same tired old speech that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been working on is suddenly defunct. Pull your resources together and construct a new platform that makes you proud.

LIBRA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; You may feel like +*#!2 +1$)"$youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re on a cliff with your legs

dangling over the edge, Libra.

Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re searching for handholds while your feet struggle to support you on a tiny ledge. You may be swearing that when you get out of this predicament, you will never come this way again. Take heart.

This is all part of the cycle. These necessary challenges only make you stronger and more appreciative of the easy stretches.

SCORPIO â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Someone has suddenly put the fan on high, Scorpio, and papers are blowing everywhere. Neat piles whisked into large swirls of chaos.

Everyone is shouting opinions about what should be done about it. Meanwhile, there are people making demands on you that you just canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t handle. Slow down and communicate your situation to others. They will understand and support your predicament. The wind will die down soon.

SAGITTARIUS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Try not to get tangled in other peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s words, Sagittarius. It could be that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re accidentally misconstruing their statements because you arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t listening closely. Rather, your mind is focused on your own thoughts, even though you snap to attention when something hits you wrong.

Show respect by turning down the volume in your head when someone else has the floor, even if you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t agree with what theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re saying.

CAPRICORN â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a terrific expansive feeling to the day, Capricorn, which you will appreciate more than anyone. For other people, this energy might expand into a headache. For you, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s apt to expand your feeling of success. It also might expand your stomach, so be careful that you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t overindulge. Other than that, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hold back on your activities.

Whatever you do will be very productive.

AQUARIUS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; There might be some unexpected communication coming from a long-lost friend or old roommate today, Aquarius. You never know whom you might run into when you leave the house, so stay alert. An old teacher could be just around the corner. Perhaps a bizarre news story in the paper catches your attention, because there on the page is a photo of the kid who lived next door to your childhood home.

PISCES â&#x20AC;&#x201D; This is one of those days when you just canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait for someone to stop talking so you can say something, Pisces. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s likely you wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even wait. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be surprised if friction results from such strongly held opposing views. People could blow things out of proportion, since everyone is convinced that they are right.

The interesting thing about this situation is that it could result in a productive time.

Everyâ&#x20AC;Żnumber in the codeword grid is â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;codeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 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.

SANTA BARBARA COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING

Alger Appeal of the Frampton Lot Line Adjustment/Recorded Map Modification November 10, 2020 Virtual Hearing begins at 9:00 A.M. On November 10, 2020, the County Board of Supervisors will consider the appeal by Mr. Alger of the County Planning Commissionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s June 10, 2020 approval of the Frampton Lot Line Adjustment and Recorded Map Modification, Case Nos. 19LLA-00000-00003 and 19RMM-00000-00001.

The building envelopes identify the location of future structures, construction storage and staging, while allowing other uses such as grading, utilities, paving, etc. to occur outside the building envelopes. The development envelopes identify the location of site preparation, ground disturbances and construction activities including those for structures, access, easements, subsurface grading, sewage disposal, and drainage components. No ground disturbance, including (a) grading; (b) vegetation removal unless required by the Carpinteria-Summerland Fire Protection District or approved as part of the Fire Fuel Management and Habitat Improvement Plan; (c) ornamental, non-native landscaping; or (d) development is allowed outside the development envelopes, except paving and utilities required for driveway access to serve the development envelopes. Lot A, which is 2.0 acres and currently has building/development envelopes of 0.29 and 0.04 acres, respectively, would have new envelopes of 0.45 and 0.28 acres. Lot B, which is 10.67 acres and currently has building/development envelopes of 0.37 and 0.12 acres, respectively, would have new envelopes of 0.60 and 0.40 acres.

Deadline: Friday, November 6th at 12 noon.

The proposed project is a request for a Lot Line Adjustment (LLA â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 19LLA-00000-00003) & Recorded Map Modification (RMM â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 19RMM-00000-00001) to adjust the property lines and modify the building and development envelopes between two lots for future residential development. No structural development is currently proposed. The size of the lots would not change from 2.0 and 10.67 acres but the lot lines and building/development envelopes would change.
