Officials prepare for weekend rainstorm Santa Barbara County works to secure areas impacted by Alisal Fire By MADISON HIRNEISEN NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

COURTESY SB COUNTY PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT

Crews worked to clear vegetation on Refugio Road on Wednesday ahead of this weekend’s rain storm.

A rainstorm bringing between one to two inches of rain is expected to hit Santa Barbara County over the weekend, and local officials are prepping for the threat of potential flood impacts near the burn scar of the Alisal Fire. The National Weather Service is forecasting a storm to roll through Santa Barbara County from Sunday night through Monday that is expected to bring up to two inches of rain to the region. Rain is also possible earlier in the weekend, with the forecast predicting less than a tenth of an inch of precipitation in the North

County on Friday and Saturday, according to National Weather Service Meteorologist Ryan Kittell. While rain during a drought would typically be welcomed on the Central Coast, local officials are keeping a close eye on the potential for flooding or debris flow in the areas freshly scorched by the Alisal Fire. Fortunately, Mr. Kittell said the Weather Service does not expect this storm to produce “significant, damaging type debris flows.” “We can’t rule it out, but more likely than not, any debris flows would be minor, shallow and more of what we call nuisance-type events as opposed to destructive,” Mr. Kittell told the News-Press.

“Instead of taking down buildings and sweeping out campgrounds, it might impact roads and creeks. So those (would be) the type of impacts as opposed to destruction.” To prepare for potential flooding and debris flow impacts during the weekend storm, county officials are working on Refugio Road and at the Tajiguas Landfill to mitigate potential flood impacts, according to Lael Wageneck, the public information officer for the Public Works Department. “After a fire, these areas during rain are always suspect to flooding or debris flows, so we are making preparations for both currently at the landfill and along Refugio

Creek by Refugio Road,” Mr. Wageneck told the News-Press. Along Refugio Road, crews were on-site Wednesday to clear vegetation near Refugio Creek, Mr. Wageneck said. He noted that the bridge crossing on the road typically floods during rains, but officials are working to make sure water and material can flow easier and won’t get “choked up” at any point during the weekend storm. Crews were also on-site at the Tajiguas Landfill on Wednesday working to install a concretereinforced berm that will divert debris flowing into the upper part of Pila Creek into a sedimentation Please see PREVENTION on A4

Santa Barbara Mayor Cathy Murillo presented a proclamation to the Santa Barbara Harbor Crew Wednesday. The occasion celebrated National Disability Employment Awareness Month and the 29th anniversary between the city of Santa Barbara and Momentum WORK Inc., which connects disabled people to jobs. (Momentum also offers

day services and recreational programs, like adaptive sports.) An enthusiastic Mayor Murillo shouted periodically as she read the proclamation, which ends by calling on other employers, schools and organizations to observe NDEAM too and “openly recognize that people with disabilities add value and talent to our workplaces and communities.” Kevin Smith, director of program services at Momentum, said the harbor respects the crew. The maintenance staff, boat crews

and those who live on the boats know team members. “I know they’re known; they’re appreciated; they’re outside and not hidden away,” he said. “A real person belongs in the community, and that’s what they want.” Crew members, when asked what they enjoy about working at the harbor, told the News-Press they like the people. Brian MacLaren, a crew coach and instructor at Momentum’s Santa Barbara Art Works program, focuses on his team.

“I really really care about the crew, and that’s first and foremost and their well being,” he said. “I just want them to be productive and develop a real work ethic.” He said the harbor is a “nice office” that inspires him to paint. He is working on a series of paintings of the harbor and presented the first to Mayor Murillo Wednesday. She plans to display it in her office.

The Food and Drug Administration Wednesday authorized booster shots of the Moderna and Johnson & Johnson vaccines, taking a major step in distributing extra doses to tens of millions of Americans. The agency authorized the Moderna booster shot six months after the primary series for individuals over the age of 65 and young adults with underlying health conditions or occupational exposure to COVID-19. The recommendation for the Moderna booster shot aligned with the authorization provided for Pfizer boosters a few weeks ago. In addition, the FDA authorized the J&J booster for everyone over the age of 18 who completed the single-dose series at least two months ago. On Wednesday, the FDA also approved “mixing and matching” a booster dose of the vaccine, meaning that those who received the first series of a different vaccine are now eligible for a booster dose of any of the approved shots. “Today’s actions demonstrate our commitment to public health in proactively fighting against the COVID-19 pandemic,” Acting FDA Commissioner Dr. Janet Woodcock said in a statement. “As the pandemic continues to impact the country, science has shown that vaccination continues to be the safest and most effective way to prevent COVID-19, including the most serious consequences of the disease, such as hospitalization and death.” “The available data suggest waning immunity in some populations who are fully vaccinated. The availability of these authorized boosters is important for continued protection against COVID-19 disease.” The FDA’s ruling will now move on to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for consideration by its vaccine advisory committee. The committee is scheduled to meet today to discuss the boosters. If the committee issues a recommendation for the booster shots, it will be left up to CDC

Director Rochelle Walensky to stamp final approval. If she does so, booster shots would be available for millions of eligible Americans immediately. The push for boosters comes as case rates are declining in the U.S., averaging about 80,000 new cases per day, according to data from The New York Times. In Santa Barbara County, the Public Health Department reported 73 new cases of COVID-19, bringing the county’s active case rate to 298 infections. Officials reported 38 new cases in Santa Maria, nine cases in Santa Barbara, and seven cases in both the Santa Ynez Valley and Lompoc. Elsewhere, four cases were reported in the North County unincorporated areas and Guadalupe, two were reported in Orcutt, two in Goleta, two in the South Coast unincorporated areas and Carpinteria, and one case in the unincorporated Goleta Valley and Gaviota. One case was pending a location assignment on Wednesday. The department reported that 37 people were hospitalized for COVID-19 on Wednesday. Thirteen of those patients were recovering in the ICU. According to the county’s latest vaccination data, 78.1% of eligible 12-and-older residents are partially vaccinated, and 70.2% of that same population are fully vaccinated. Of the county’s entire population, 59.4% of people are fully vaccinated. email: mhirneisen@newspress. com

Alisal Fire remains at 97% containment Incident management team finishes job

outbuilding damaged. A full report will be available in coming days. California Interagency Incident Management Team 1 finished its assignment with the Alisal Fire Wednesday evening, a week after it began. “We’re leaving because the fire doesn’t necessitate a type-one team any longer,” Kristen Allison, a public information officer for the team, told the News-Press. The team discusses its exit

By ANNELISE HANSHAW NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

The Alisal Fire remained at 17,281 acres and 97% containment Wednesday as firefighters cool down the northwest edge of the fire’s footprint. A total of 492 personnel were assigned to the fire Wednesday. Damage assessment teams finished up their totals and counted that 12 residences were destroyed in the fire and one

a couple days in advance and ensures everyone agrees before leaving the incident to local agencies. The Los Padres National Forest and Santa Barbara County Fire Department will take back leadership as crews handle a fire that looks much different than a week ago. Inside the fire’s footprint is “mostly completely cold,” Ms. Allison said. There aren’t flames to battle, only warm zones where

dust or wood is retaining heat. “We’re not seeing movement at all; these are isolated pockets of heat,” Ms. Allison said. Firefighters have begun to repair some of the damage done to properties during regrading and mitigation measures. Crews’ fire camp is back to El Capitan, its original location before moving to Earl Warren Showgrounds. email: ahanshaw@newspress.com

Zachary Barker Coughlin was sentenced to the maximum of 20 years, followed by 125 years to life in state prison, Santa Barbara County District Attorney Joyce E. Dudley announced Wednesday. Apart from a reputation of harassment, Mr. Coughlin, 44, drew attention with his modified bus, often called the “Mirror Bus” by Isla Vista residents. He was found guilty July 22 for all 14 counts he was charged with, which include: penetration of an unconscious/intoxicated person, forcible oral copulation, forcible rape, rape of an unconscious/ intoxicated person and kidnap with intent to commit rape. The jury also learned he committed aggravated kidnapping and sexual offenses against multiple victims. Deputy District Attorneys Megan Chanda and Michelle Mossembekker led a six-week trial.

The District Attorney’s Office also thanks those who contributed to a yearlong investigation, Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office Special Investigations Bureau Detectives Kevin McGillivray and Anthony Kouremetis and District Attorney Investigator Matthew Harvill. Victim Advocate Rita McGaw assisted members of the team as they located victims and provided support. — Annelise Hanshaw

Fentanyl exposure at main jail SANTA BARBARA — A fentanyl exposure incident sent eight Santa Barbara County custody deputies and two Santa Barbara police officers to a local hospital as a precaution Wednesday afternoon. The exposure occurred outside the Santa Barbara County Main Jail and within the gated area. The incident “involved” a person who was being booked into the jail, according to the Sheriff’s Office.

None of the exposed personnel were symptomatic, and they did not require hospitalization. — Annelise Hanshaw

Hit-and-run suspect arrested LOMPOC — Lompoc police officers arrested the suspect of a hit-and-run collision in which the driver of a vehicle allegedly struck a pedestrian and fled the scene. Officers responded to the collision Tuesday evening at 6:55. They found a 65-year-old pedestrian down. The victim was lifted to a local hospital and is in serious condition. The vehicle was last seen turning northbound on North H Street from Pine Avenue. Officers used surveillance cameras to follow the vehicle’s direction of travel. They located the car at a nearby motel and watched surveillance to identify who was driving the vehicle. Officers saw the suspect, Michael Moore, near his room and arrested

him. He is charged with fleeing the scene of an injury traffic collision, a felony. The investigation is ongoing. Anyone with information may call the Lompoc Police Department at 805-736-2341. — Annelise Hanshaw

U.S. Rep. Salud Carbajal, D-Santa Barbara, also served with Mr. Centeno on the Board of Supervisors. In a statement, the congressman said Mr. Centeno “consistently demonstrated extraordinary leadership in his public service and worked tirelessly to improve the lives of his constituents.” “Some of my most fond memories of Joe were working with him to establish the Children’s Health Insurance Initiative for uninsured children in Santa Barbara County, build the Cuyama Pool, and partnering to support our agricultural industry,” the congressman said. “Joe was the epitome of a dedicated public servant who worked in a bipartisan way to improve our community. My thoughts are with his family and all who knew him during this difficult time.”

In 2003, Mr. Centeno was elected to the County Board of Supervisors. He served two terms and retired at the conclusion of his second term, ending his public service career that spanned more than 50 years. In honor of his legacy and lengthy career serving Santa Maria, the county decided to name the Santa Maria government building located at 511 E. Lakeside Parkway the “Joseph Centeno Betteravia Government Building” in his honor. Supervisor Steve Lavagnino, who was elected to serve in the 5th District after Mr. Centeno’s retirement, said in a statement that the late official “represented the Fifth District and the City of Santa Maria with distinction.” “Joe put the people first, especially those who came from more humble circumstances,” Mr. Lavagnino said. “His commitment to a life of public service is an example to all of us.”

Randy Rowse for Santa Barbara mayor Santa Barbara desperately needs a leader who not only understands but appreciates business — the lifeblood that keeps the city running. We believe there is no one on the slate better to fill the position of mayor than Randy Rowse — a man who successfully ran a thriving business. This city has had the alternative for decades. As a result, one only has to look at the state of downtown today: “Homelessness” run amok, streets becoming increasingly narrow for cars but extremely wide for bikes and skateboarders, bulb-outs and the canyonization of Chapala. On the horizon, and probably blocking it, are high rises on State and Santa Barbara streets. Get ready for more massive structures built much too close to sidewalks and streets that would make Pearl Chase roll over in her grave. Not to mention, arbitrarily deciding to increase what was height limit of structures and allowing structures to be built too

Congressmen visit Vandenberg Space Force Base By DAVE MASON NEWS-PRESS MANAGING EDITOR

U.S. Reps. Salud Carbajal, D-Santa Barbara, and Adam Smith, who chairs the House Armed Services Committee, visited Vandenberg Space Force Base Saturday. They toured the Combined Force Space Component Command and the Space Launch Complex 6 launch site. During the visit, the lawmakers discussed the need for federal investment to improve the base’s infrastructure to create additional launch opportunities. Rep. Carbajal has repeatedly advocated for this funding in annual defense bills, according to a news release from his office. The congressmen’s tour included Mission Development Zone, an unused strip of land north of Ocean

Avenue. It’s designed to serve as an enterprise zone outside the base. “It was an honor to have Chairman Smith at Vandenberg Space Force Base this weekend so he could witness firsthand the important work being done on the Central Coast to enhance our national security and strengthen our economy,” Rep. Carbajal said in a news release. “Our district is privileged to host the premiere West Coast launch site for military, civil and commercial space operations, and I am proud to have used my seat on the Armed Services Committee to bring home federal resources that help the base fulfill its missions and compete in a 21st century economy.” Rep. Carbajal said he will continue to work with Rep. Smith to secure federal resources to support the base and create good-

paying jobs in the community to offset positions lost when the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant closes. Rep. Smith, a Washington state Democrat whose district office is in the Seattle area, said, “As we work through this year’s National Defense Authorization Act, I will continue to support the Space Force Range of the Future initiative — which this base will play a vital role in.” The House has passed the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2022, which includes funding to improve launch infrastructure at Vandenberg Space Force Base. Following Senate passage, the bill is expected to go through a conference committee before being enacted into law.

Santa Maria Area Transit plans to reassess its current system and make recommendations to its Short Range Transit Plan to address impacts that have impaired the return to preCOVID19 levels. SMAT will present its recommendations in a series of virtual and in-person open housestyle workshops. Six workshops will be held virtually. Area residents can participate during sessions at 2 and 5:30 p.m. (virtual) today; 11:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. (virtual) Wednesday; noon and 3:30 p.m. (virtual) Nov. 19; and noon and 3:30 p.m. (in-person) Nov. 19 in Shepard Hall at the Santa Maria Public Library, 421 S. McClelland St. Complete details regarding the changes can be found at www.smatservicechange.com. Questions or comments can also be submitted before the meetings at www.smatserchange.com. “The Short Range Transit Plan will guide service development for SMAT’s bus system over the next five years,” said Gamaliel Anguiano, transit services manager. “We are very much interested in the public’s input on these ideas aimed at improving

current transit services.” Key objectives of the recommendations include: • Create connections between neighborhoods, medical and educational facilities, and employment centers. • Create routes that can better support local schools (biggest segment of growth). • Where possible, create routes that can be better met by the “limited” range of electric buses. • Create routes that are on headways/schedules that are easily memorable and pulse in and out of the transit center. Key features of the updated Short Range Transit Plan are: • Every route starts at 6:30 a.m. • Most routes are on a 45-minute frequency. • All 45-minute routes sync at the transit center for ease of transfer. • Transfer points at Suey Crossing and Merrill Gardens (north end) and Crossroads Shopping Center (south end of town) will be synced for ease of transfer between routes in addition to the Transit Center. • Create weekday schedules consistent with weekend schedules.

California’s Master Plan for Aging topic for Friday’s virtual forum By MARILYN MCMAHON NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

The Santa Barbara County Adult & Aging Network is hosting a regional online forum about California’s Master Plan for Aging to allow the public to contribute ideas. State Sen. Monique Limón, D-Santa Barbara, and former state Sen.

California’s Master Plan for Aging provides a 10-year strategy to help communities meet them. “We invite the public to attend this virtual forum to learn about the plan and share their input,” said Ms. Finch. “Public participation will help ensure that local voices and local actions guide the allocation of state and federal resources coming to our county.” Organizers want to hear from older adults and people with disabilities, family members and caregivers, healthcare providers, philanthropists, business owners, faith leaders, community organizers, city/ county/state government leaders and representatives from public and private organizations, whose

There are too many arbitrary regulations being foisted upon those businesses still in business — and more coming all the time. It’s taxation without representation for those who own businesses downtown and within the city limits. Business owners pay an inordinate amount of taxes and fees yet have no voting rights if one lives outside the city limits. Basically, it’s punishing those who bring money into the city coffers yet giving windfalls to those who bring nothing — spending $1.6 million to house 50 alleged homeless for four months in hotel rooms — paid for by those who have no say.

basin. With the berm in place, sediment and debris will be diverted into the basin as opposed to following the creek’s normal path down to the ocean, Mr. Wageneck said. These mitigation efforts are expected to be completed by Friday, ahead of Sunday’s storm, Mr. Wageneck said. He added that a crew from Raminha Construction is replacing damaged sections of the storm drain system at the landfill this week, and the work is expected to be completed by Sunday. Santa Barbara city officials are also keeping watch on the weekend storm as the burn scar of the Loma Fire still looms large over Loma Alta Drive. On Monday, officials closed

a portion of Loma Alta Drive to vehicular traffic from now through June 1 to prepare for “storm-related impacts” after the Loma Fire, according to a news release from the city. The road is closed between Coronel and West Canon Perdido streets but remains open for bicyclists and pedestrians Earlier this week, crews installed about 600 feet of k-rail on Loma Alta Drive, which will help to catch any sediment or mud that flows from the hill during storm events, according to the city’s Streets Operations and Infrastructure Manager Jim Dewey. Mr. Dewey told the NewsPress on Wednesday that the city typically sees runoff from TV Hill during rain events. He noted that if the city sees a major rain event, the sediment flow “won’t be significantly

bigger” than the typical amount of runoff, adding that the k-rail recently installed will help catch mud and debris and keep it contained to the street. “As far as anything that is like, a major debris flow, we’re not anticipating anything like that,” Mr. Dewey said. “Just in an abundance of caution we put out the k-rail rail, and that will contain any runoff we have on the road. So it is possible that we get some significant runoff that could affect the apartments below the area, just east of where the burn scar is, but that’s normal for those particular apartments — the apartments that are near Fremont Place.” Officials are planning to hold a meeting next month to provide information to residents about planning for flood-related impacts on Loma Alta Drive. The meeting will be on Nov. 3 at the McKinley

Elementary School Auditorium and starts at 7:30 p.m. During this meeting, Mr. Dewey said officials plan to present a computer water runoff model that shows how various rain events could impact flooding and runoff conditions on Loma Alta Drive. Ahead of this weekend’s storm, officials recommend residents visit readysbc.org/storm-ready for information on the best ways to protect their homes and prepare for potential flooding. A few of the tips for storm readiness include being prepared to leave before roads, creeks and waterways are flowing, considering installing sandbags, and having an emergency plan and disaster kit ready to go. Residents can also sign up for emergency alerts by visiting readysbc.org. email: mhirneisen@newspress.com

other cities, but it does employ people to work for the state in offices, such as California Highway Patrol. Executive Director Judy Linares said the company’s purpose is to integrate people. “We fight to make sure that people have equal rights with their talents and interests,” she said. “Not everyone wants to do a janitorial job, so we work hard at building relationships with all employers based on the talents and interests of the people that we support.” The harbor crew keeps the harbor’s facilities clean every day. Some have been doing the job for as long as 27 years and were honored Wednesday. “The intent of this crew is really to gain skills and move on into another competitive job in the community. But a lot of our crew members fall in love with the work,” Ms. Linares said. Rick Kaufman has been working in the harbor crew for 27 years. He has taken care of the harbor’s trash all 27 years and continues to tackle trash four days per week. Mark Cortez joined the team 10 years ago after someone told him about the job. He enjoys the location and community, so he doesn’t plan to look for other jobs. Gregg Landry, another 27year crew member, is also happy working alongside nice people. “This program is unique because I can’t find another program, anything like it, in the country,” Mr. Smith said. “So we’re pretty proud of that. But it’s kind of bizarre that it’s unique because it works so well.” The employers Momentum work with are welcoming to disabled employees, but sometimes Mr. Smith encounters a company that doesn’t understand. “A lot of what those employers lacked was that experience of meeting and knowing that people with disabilities are doing a great job,” he said. Coach Ben Warren said the crew stays busy cleaning, and he enjoys leading them. “It’s great. We’re at the beach, and we’re cleaning up and contributing and giving back to the community. And everyone puts in a great amount of effort, just as much as they possibly can,” he said. All harbor crew employees earn minimum wage or higher. In late September, Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a law phasing out subminimum wage for disabled employees by 2025. email: ahanshaw@newspress.com

This may not be your top fruit pick, but the selection of dates at our local farmers market is quite exceptional with about a dozen varieties on-hand throughout the season. One of nature’s sweetest fruits, dates function as the perfect energy source to help get you through your day, also providing essential nutrients, such as B-complex vitamins, magnesium and iron. With only 24 calories per date, they are an excellent source of dietary fiber and contain more potassium than bananas. Dates are also one of the best natural sources of potassium. They’re excellent to bring on an afternoon hike for a boost of energy, added to a date milkshake, or to sweeten up your oatmeal or steamed rice. They are also great when stuffed with chevre (or blue cheese) and wrapped in bacon, the Fix of the Week, below. You can currently find dates at all weekly Santa Barbara certified farmers’’ markets from Dates by DaVall Farm. Price averages $8 per pound.

This hearty winter squash is not only delicious; it can be quite enjoyable to eat. Possessing a bright yellow hard outer shell and pale orange flesh, this winter squash is typically enjoyed roasted. To prepare, slice the squash in half, remove the seeds and membrane, and place in a 400-degree oven for about an hour. You can then scrape the flesh with a fork resulting in spaghetti-like strands. This can then be tossed in a tomato-based pasta sauce or topped with brown sugar, butter and walnuts. You can currently find this beta-carotene and fiber packed squash at the weekly Saturday Santa Barbara, Sunday Camino Real, Tuesday Santa Barbara, Wednesday Solvang, and Thursday Carpinteria farmers’’ markets. Price averages $1.50 per pound.

ome people absolutely love dates, while others find them way too intense. Those which fall in the “love them” category tend to restock their pantry each week, shuffling through the array of options to find their perfect specimens. Dates are available throughout most of the year due to their ability for long-term storage, although they are harvested throughout the fall season. The largest concentration of dates is sourced from very arid parts of California, where temperatures average over 100 degrees through a solid portion of the summer and fall months. Areas such as the Indio Valley, Palm Desert and the Coachella Valley are some of the largest date-producing areas. Dates are excellent when eaten as they come, but also can provide a great flavor and texture balance to many of your prepared meals. With such a wide array available from your local farmers, make sure to ask them which would be best depending on the use. Some possess higher sugar levels with creamier textures that are ideal for adding to baked goods, or they can be used as a natural sugar additive to your morning oatmeal. You will find other varieties that are firmer, perfect for dicing and incorporated into your stuffed peppers or mushrooms. They are also great with steamed rice. If you are even remotely fond of dates, make sure to experiment with the many varieties your California date growers have to

offer. This week I prepared some simple bacon wrapped dates stuffed with chevre from the Drake family farm. You can also use blue cheese instead of chevre if preferred. You can also add some almond slivers and/or chopped fresh basil if desired. Sweet, savory and delicious, this one is as easy to prepare as they come. Sam Edelman is general manager of the Santa Barbara Certified Farmers Market Association and host of “Farm to Table,” which airs live 9 a.m. Thursdays on KZSB AM 1290. BACON WRAPPED CHEVRE STUFFED DATES 20 dates (I used Medjool) 1 pound thinly sliced bacon, cut in half 4 ounces blue cheese, crumbled (Santa Barbara Cheese Company, Friday Montecito) Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Remove the pit from each date and cut a small slit on one side. Stuff each with your chevre (and almonds and fresh basil if preferred) and wrap each date with a half piece of bacon. Secure with a toothpick and place on a baking sheet lined with foil. Cook for about 16 minutes, turning dates halfway through so the bacon is cooked evenly. Cook until the bacon is cooked through and slightly crispy. Yield: Serves 20 appetizer bites.

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

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

don’t exist. LIBRA — There’s an inspirational quality about you today that you should make more public. Instead of shrinking into your imagination, you should expand your energy outward to the people around you. Your heart is caring and sensitive. It’s time to earn some public recognition for its loyalty and loving nature. Stand up and take a bow for all the incredible things you do for others. SCORPIO — In many respects, the energy of the day can’t get much better for you. It’s up to you to direct this energy into action that will nourish your soul. There’s a great deal of power and strength behind your emotions. You should make sure that you carry this good feeling with you into every situation from now on. SAGITTARIUS — Consider cooking dinner for a large group tonight. Ask everyone to pitch in some money and you’ll be surprised at the fantastic masterpiece you can create with just a small amount of effort on your part. Set the table with candles and add good music in the background. Even if a dinner party doesn’t sound like a fun idea now, take a leadership role in whatever events come your way. CAPRICORN — Once you take the first step today, the rest of the way will be a piece of cake. Before you know it, you’ll have completed the entire marathon with very little sweat on your brow. The one thing to watch out for is that you don’t run over anyone in your dash to the finish line. Be careful of the runners beside you and treat them as friends and supporters instead of opponents. AQUARIUS — You could feel a great deal of pressure from the people around you to join in their festivities. Perhaps you’re being lured into the frenzy of activity. Don’t feel like you have to be a part of the party if you don’t want to be. The worst thing for you to do would be to pretend that you’re interested when you aren’t. PISCES — You may have so much fun today that you forget to check on the happiness of the people around you. You should feel quite a surge of strength because of the energy of today, but realize that other people may have a hard time keeping up with your fantastic pace. Stop and take a break in order to allow other people to catch up.

ARIES — You may not be terribly impressed with the activity going on around you, but that doesn’t mean you have to be miserable because of it. This isn’t the time to sit back and let others take the lead. If you see something you don’t agree with, step up and make it known. Do what you can to change the course of events by letting your powerful voice be heard. TAURUS — There’s a trajectory of truth to maintain today. If you try to go against the flow, you’ll have a difficult time achieving your goals. You’re much better off setting your sights on something downstream so that you can utilize the incredible force that already has a great deal of momentum behind it. There’s no need to reinvent the wheel on a day like this. GEMINI — You’re competing with someone today as you fight for dominance in a situation. The unspoken battle has begun, and the war won’t end until you’ve successfully claimed your victorious position as ruler of the mountain. Defend your territory if you feel that someone is stepping on it. If you don’t make it known that you’re the boss, someone else surely will claim that spot. CANCER — Don’t hesitate to dive into whatever project or situation suits your fancy today. Your luck will make you victorious in whatever game you choose. Happiness is almost inevitable. Don’t be afraid to share your enthusiasm with others. Your confidence is incredibly inspiring. Others are lucky to be on your team. LEO — Don’t blow things out of proportion today. You’re apt to have a tendency to exaggerate everything to such a degree that you completely lose touch with the true reality of the situation. You could be painting a terrible scene in order to elicit pity from others. Be honest about the situation before you create more enemies than friends. VIRGO — Your emotions are dynamic and extreme today. They’re apt to control every action you take whether you realize it or not. Be aware that it’s best to realize it so you can then control these volatile feelings instead of being controlled by them. This doesn’t mean you should try to ignore them by pretending they

Solar-powered EV charging unit rises in Goleta

GOLETA — Goleta now has Santa Barbara County’s first EV ARC 2020 station for charging electric vehicles. The off-grid, solar-powered EV charger is transportable and can serve as a mobile unit for emergencies. The unit occupies a single parking space at Goleta City Hall, 130 Cremona Drive. Residents and others can use the

unit any time, day or night. It’s free. “We are excited to have taken this first step of many in providing our community with access to clean, reliable energy and supporting the transition to electric vehicles,” Mayor Paula Perotte said in a news release. “We are looking forward to continuing the momentum in addressing climate change and

creating a more sustainable, green Goleta.” The charger was fully funded by the Santa Barbara County Air Pollution Control District 2020 Clean Air Grants Infrastructure and the California Office of Emergency Services Public Safety Power Shutoff Resiliency Programs. The unit can power up to 265

miles of electric driving in a single day. The EV ARC system generates and stores its own clean electricity and delivers that electricity to power EVs, day or night, and during inclement weather and power outages, according to the news release.

Her volunteer work in Santa Barbara included serving on the Women’s Economic Venture board, the Santa Barbara Zoo Planned Giving committee, the Jodi House capital campaign cabinet, the Santa Barbara Mission pastoral council and the communications committee for Discovery Pavilion capital campaign at the zoo.

Museum of Art Women’s board. The Junior League honored Ms. Barnard for her efforts to promote volunteerism, develop the potential of women and improve the community through leadership and action. Ms. Barnard has done all three in her 24 years as executive director of Good Samaritan Shelter. Under Ms. Barnard’s leadership, Good Samaritan Shelter became the largest homeless shelter provider on the Central Coast and the largest drug and alcohol treatment provider in Santa Barbara County. Mr. Barnard currently serves on several boards and committees.
