Canyon on Tuesday and moved toward the burn scar of the 2016 Sherpa Fire, Santa Barbara City Fire Chief Chris Mailes told the City Council. He maintained there was no current threat to Santa Barbara. Chief Mailes said Tuesday that the fire is starting to move down to the ocean area in several places and is starting to trek east, though it continues to burn through Refugio Canyon and to the west of the canyon. Northwest winds of up to 40 mph pushed the fire southeast on Tuesday, according to Chief Mailes. The wind’s speed prohibited crews from utilizing fixed-wing aircraft, though

The fire was 5% contained as of 7 p.m. The Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors declared a local state of emergency Tuesday afternoon in response to the fire. The board also asked that Gov.

Dos Pueblos HS acts as shelter during Alisal Fire By MADISON HIRNEISEN NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

More than a dozen individuals found shelter in the gym of Dos Pueblos High School on Monday night as the Alisal Fire forced evacuations in the area of El Capitan State Beach and closed a portion of Highway 101 and Amtrak rails in north county. About 18 people sought shelter at Dos Pueblos High School overnight Monday, many of whom had been evacuated off an Amtrak train that was headed to stops in northern Santa Barbara County and San Luis Obispo. The temporary shelter was set up by the American Red Cross Pacific Coast Chapter. Passengers on the Amtrak train told the News-Press on Tuesday that they were directed to the shelter after their train returned to Santa Barbara as a result of the Alisal Fire burning in close proximity to the Highway 101 and the railroad tracks. The train returned to Santa Barbara shortly after pulling out of the station Monday, according to passengers. The fire, which began on Monday afternoon near Alisal Reservoir, had burned around 2,000 acres as of 9 p.m. Monday night, but swelled to about 6,000 acres by Tuesday morning.

Staff at Circle Bar B Guest Ranch and Stables were amazed as they saw strangers with horse trailers pull into their ranch off Refugio Road in Goleta. The helping hands — or more importantly, trailers — were sent by the Santa Barbara Equine Assistance and Evac Team Inc, or Equine Evac for short. It took from around 3-10 p.m.

Train passengers join evacuees at shelter EVACUATION

Continued from Page A1

Monday, the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office ordered evacuations for the areas of Refugio, Tajiguas, Arroyo Quemada, Arroyo Hondo and El Capitan Beach State Park, including the campground. A few campers parked their RVs in the Dos Pueblos High School parking lot overnight, while passengers from the train slept on fold-out cots in the high school’s gym. A few other campers who evacuated from the El Capitan campground were able to relocate to the campground at Carpinteria State Beach, according to Jessica Hodge, the disaster program manager with the American Red Cross Central California Region. Passengers on the Amtrak train headed north on Monday evening had the option to either return to Los Angeles on a southbound train or stay in the area overnight with the hopes of getting up to the north county by Tuesday. Originally, Amtrak tried booking hotels for passengers but directed them to the Dos Pueblos shelter when they found out all area hotel rooms were full. Fortunately, all of the Amtrak passengers who stayed overnight were taken to the Amtrak station in Santa Barbara late Tuesday morning, where they were then given transportation to their destinations, Ms. Hodge said. Among the more than a dozen folks who stayed overnight at Dos Pueblos was Noelia Villarreal, a former resident of Santa Barbara County who was visiting the area from Texas. She was headed north on the Amtrak train Monday evening to help out with training at a dental practice in Santa Maria where she used to work. She said that she first heard of the fire when the train captain announced that the Amtrak train would be returning to the station in Santa Barbara as a result of the blaze. When asked what was going

through her mind when she heard the announcement, Ms. Noelia said the captain had very calm communication, which helped to keep passengers at ease. Spending the night in the shelter at Dos Pueblos inspired a desire to serve, Ms. Villarreal told the News-Press, adding that she plans to look into volunteer opportunities with the American Red Cross when she returns to Texas. “This is my first experience ever having to be evacuated from anywhere,” Ms. Villarreal said. “But where I live in San Antonio, we’ve had people come from Houston and Louisiana with those hurricanes. So the experience

of doing something like this (and) being in this situation is something I never thought of, so I’m going to go back and see about volunteering with the Red Cross.” Another Amtrak passenger, Nancy Ochs, was aboard the Monday evening train headed to her home in San Luis Obispo. She ended up staying at the Dos Pueblos shelter overnight with hopes of getting home Tuesday. After arriving at Dos Pueblos around 10:30 p.m. on Monday, Ms. Ochs said the American Red Cross provided everyone with cots and blankets for the night. “All the Red Cross people are really, really quite nice,” Ms. Ochs

told the News-Press. As of late Tuesday morning, all of the overnight guests had vacated the shelter, Ms. Hodge told the News-Press. She said that the shelter remains open, but could be put on standby by the county if evacuation orders are lifted. Dos Pueblos has served as a reference point and shelter place during numerous fires over the years, high school principal Bill Woodard told the News-Press on Tuesday. “We’ve done this many times over the years with fire, so we’re happy to help,” Mr. Woodard said. email: mhirneisen@newspress.com

members and 10 board members. Ranch hands spent the night at the showgrounds, watching the horses. Grace Reilly watched the horses overnight and finally watched them settle down just under 24 hours after evacuation. Circle Bar B’s horses are accustomed to roaming in pasture, so standing in the stalls is out of their routine. She said they can pick up on the stress even though they didn’t encounter any flames. Equine Evac requests owners’ help. The horses need food, water, and the stalls should be clean for the animals. Some animals need medication to calm down. Many of the animals in the stalls Tuesday were from commercial ranches rather than individual residences. Usually volunteers sleep in a second trailer they call the “Hilton,” but it was not yet on site Tuesday afternoon. During the Thomas Fire, there were 1,300 animals at Earl Warren. Equine Evac volunteers slept on cots for weeks. All volunteers must be sworn-in by the county because of liability concerns. Equine Evac is currently fundraising to renovate the livestock facilities at Earl Warren, a facility the nonprofit does not own. It has completed $800,000 in renovation to stadiums and plans to modernize the barns next. Before each renovation, volunteers check the mid-century stalls for any safety concerns and

The fire surrounded the Tajiguas Landfill Monday night, and the biofilter outside the Materials Recovery Facility flared up Tuesday. Public Works describes the biofilter as an “uncovered concrete structure filled with wood chips that receives and filters air from inside the maintenance recovery facility.” The Alisal Fire also damaged the landfill’s drainage, landfill gas collection systems and heavy equipment. As part of a contingency plan, facilities in Ventura County will manage waste collected in the area on a short-term visit, according to a news release from the Public Works Department. Andrew Madsen, the public affairs officer for Los Padres National Forest, told the NewsPress on Tuesday that he’s encouraging people to keep an eye on fire activity in the coming days. Smoke from the blaze was visible in downtown Santa Barbara on Tuesday, and fire officials reported low visibility in Refugio Canyon and near El Capitan State Beach.

The cause of the fire is still under investigation. As a result of the smoke and ash from the fire, the Santa Barbara County Public Health Department issued an air quality watch Tuesday morning for the entire county, including the Channel Islands. If residents see or smell smoke or are in an area with poor air quality, the health department recommends everyone: • Head indoors and remain indoors, as much as possible. • Avoid strenuous outdoor activity. • Close all windows and doors that lead outside to prevent bringing additional smoke inside. • Avoid driving when possible and use “recycle” or re-circulate mode to avoid drawing smoky air into the car. • Drink plenty of fluids to keep respiratory membranes moist. • If you are an essential worker and must work outside during wildfire smoke conditions, the use of a properly fitted N-95 mask

NEWS-PRESS ENDORSEMENT arbitrarily deciding to increase what was height limit of structures and allowing structures to be built too close to sidewalks and streets, dirty sidewalks, shoppers being accosted by petty criminals who never see the inside of a jail, the city’s micromanaging of those businesses that can still operate. 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. If you don’t want status quo governance of Santa Barbara, vote for Randy Rowse. He’s the only candidate who can turn this city around.

Randy Rowse for Santa Barbara mayor

RAFAEL MALDONADO / NEWS-PRESS

The News-Press supports mayoral candidate Randy Rowse in the Nov. 2 election.

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,

The Santa Barbara County Public Health Department confirmed 56 new COVID-19 cases and two deaths Tuesday. The county has recorded a cumulative 43,136 cases and 511 deaths.

There are 406 COVID-19 cases still infectious in Santa Barbara County, according to Public Health’s data. One of the deceased was at least 70 years of age and the other was between the ages of 50 and 69. One had underlying health conditions. They resided in Santa Barbara

WENNERGREN, Scott Douglas Vasilios On October 4th 2021, Scott Douglas Vasilios Wennergren passed away peacefully at the age of 51. Scott is survived by his son Bran Wennergren, soon to be daughter-in-law Liza Mityanina, father Kenneth H Wennergren, mother Corkey Balcom, stepmother Patricia Wennergren, stepfather Brian Balcom, siblings Susan Souza (Kris), Vaughn Balcom (Lindsay), Lainey Balcom (Jon), Ryan Holliday and Danny Holliday (Angela), and niece and nephew Lily Souza and Luke Souza. He is also survived by his partner Heather Lynn Wennergren. Scott was born in Salinas, California on December 17th, 1969. On September 28, 1996, he married Heather Lynn Wennergren and on July 15th, 2001 they excitedly welcomed their son Bran Dorian Wennergren to the world. They settled down primarily in Santa Barbara, California. A philosopher, mystic, and scholar, Scott immersed himself in an extensive anthropological study of the mystic and shamanic practices of various cultures and traditions. This experimentation ranged from working with rainforest healers, to training in Eastern martial arts and mysticism. He conducted an in-depth study of the philosophical, sacred and arcane texts. Drawing upon this knowledge and his own intensive practice he distilled a set of techniques and concepts from the corpus of crosscultural mystic practices, which were published in his book Ars Vercanus in 2014. Scott had a successful career as an IT consultant, but spent much of his free time reading, hiking, and engaging in quality time with his son, who was his main priority. Scott was a writer, herbalist and world traveler who loved to learn about other cultures. He practiced meditation and felt very at peace when he was in nature. He was compassionate, kind, intelligent, and generous and will be deeply missed by his family and friends. A celebration of life was held on Monday, October 11th at 11am at Toro Park at the Quail Meadows site.

UNZUETA, Amanda

Sunrise November 1, 1986 – Sunset October 2, 2021 Our Beautiful, Precious Amanda was born in Solvang, CA to her father J.P. Unzueta of Santa Barbara (departed) and her mother Cindy Martinez of Santa Ynez. Amanda grew up on the Chumash Reservation and attended the Santa Ynez Valley Elementary and High School. She later continued her education as a beautician at the Marinello Beauty School in Ontario, CA. She loved to do make-up and hair since she was a young girl and was excited to learn a new trade. She loved to dance, listen to music, go shopping and had a great sense of fashion. Amanda always liked to reminisce with family and friends about all the trips and adventures they went on. She was the biggest goof ball and always had us laughing. She was a free spirit and did the wildest things some of us couldn’t image doing. She went skydiving for her birthday, bungee jumping at the fair, caught a 250-lb Marlin off the sea in Hawaii, off-roading on the quads, camping, nature, and her favorite place was going for long rides up to Figueroa Mountain and relaxing at the beach! Amanda is and always has been a loving, kind, and positive young spirit. She was quick to lend a helping hand in any way she could. She helped her family as a home health aide in taking care of her grandmother Margaret Miranda (departed), volunteered at the Chumash Pow Wow, helped many friends who were struggling in life, and never complained about anything. Amanda spread her love and positivity where ever she went. Always had a smile on her face even on her worse days. No matter if you were a stranger or familiar, she always said hello and greeted you with respect. She would always be calling all of us to ask KRZ ZH ZHUH GRLQJ DQG ZDV VR VHOÁHVV LQ KHU QHHGV 6KH OLYHG OLIH WR WKH IXOOHVW DQG ZDV fearless. never judged anyone and accepted you for who you were. She especially loved her family; her nieces and nephews Ashlynn & Gil Jr Diaz, Diego & Raymond Robles, Thomas Virgen and Jasiah Quijas. She is survived by her mother Cindy Martinez; Siblings: Aileena (Diaz), Bryan, Denecia, Jimmy, Christopher, Clinton Unzueta. Tina Miranda, Leonard Torres, and Veronica Griego. Her Family Clara & Rosanna Miranda, Carolyn Miranda, Marie Thiessen, Doris Barragan, Peggy Hernandez, Simonette Guevarra, Frank Unzueta, Mark Rodriguez, Bill Pacheco, and many more cousins and relatives. Amanda could light up a room from her beauty and bring a smile on your worst day. She will be dearly missed by All who knew her and come to know.

Noted for natives

Water-saving plants available at Santa Barbara Botanic Garden nursery By MARILYN MCMAHON NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

f you’ve ever considered replacing your lawn or some of your water-loving planting beds with native plants, now is a perfect

time. Not only is the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden’s nursery staff available and skilled at helping guests select the best

native plants for every garden at its annual sale, which is in progress, they are offering free weekly workshops to help ensure success. For the month of October, the focus is on container gardening with California natives. “Let’s Talk Plants” will be meeting at noon Sunday and Oct. 24 and 31 in the garden courtyard for short, informal chats with Matt Straka, nursery manager.

“Native plant containers are great for patios and doorsteps. These can be planted year round, and there are natives that do well in containers for sun or for shade,” he told the News-Press. “In general, you will want to be sure that your native plants have soil with better drainage than ‘typical’ potting soil. So use a citrus mix, cactus mix or amend your regular potting soils with pumice for success.”

He also offers other gardening tips like starting “to broadcast spring wildflower seeds with early rain. This is a good time to spread seed for these to germinate and start growing over winter. Resowing through the winter will give a longer bloom in spring. “If you have persistent problems with gophers and burrowing pests, consider planting with a gopher basket,”

Mr. Straka said. “These are wire cages that you use to cover the roots of the plant. Sometimes these make it more challenging to eliminate air pockets, so be mindful that you pack soil into the basket around the plant and water thoroughly at planting to increase root-soil contact.” He said there are many benefits to planting natives in the fall. “First, as the cooler season

approaches, so does the rain. Most weeds are dormant, creating a less competitive habitat for your newly planted native trees, shrubs and perennials. Additionally, leafeating insects are less active,” he said. “This creates the optimal conditions for native plants to thrive, helping them establish stronger root systems.

spring and summer, with a strong foundation in place, native plants are better able to support new growth and produce bigger blooms.” As the first botanic garden to focus exclusively on native plants, the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden on Mission Canyon Road has dedicated nearly a century of work to better understand the relationship between plants and people. Growing from 13 acres in 1926 to today’s 78 acres, the grounds now include more than five miles of walking trails, an herbarium, seed bank, research labs, library and the public native plant nursery. Teams of scientists, educators and horticulturists remain committed to the original spirit of the organization’s founders, whose mission was: Conserve California native plants and habitats to ensure they can be enjoyed for generations to come. “Native plants are the foundation for healthy ecosystems. They are a source of food, shelter and medicine,” said Joe Rothleutner, director of horticulture and facilities at the botanic garden. “With the simple addition of native plants in your garden or landscape, you will conserve our unique California flora, practice sustainability — lower water and fertilizer needs (saves you money and conserves earth’s resources), provide habitat and food for pollinators and other beneficial wildlife and connect with your California heritage. “No matter what level of gardener you are, fall is an exciting time to get outside and start establishing new plants in your beds. Native plants provide habitat for beneficial insects and attract pollinators which are important for a healthy garden ecosystem. “Even adding a few natives to your garden can have a big impact.” email: mmcmahon@newspress. com

FYI The Santa Barbara Botanic Garden, 1212 Mission Canyon Road, is open daily from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and offers a members-only hour from 9 to 10 a.m. For more information, visit sbbg.org.

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.

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

ARIES — This may be one of those days in which you don’t feel like doing anything and you can’t force yourself. While you’re out you’ll shop just enough to take care of essentials, and at home you’ll probably veg out in front of the TV. Don’t feel any guilt over it. We all need days like this. Take it easy, relax, and you’ll be your old self again tomorrow. TAURUS — Spiritual concepts may seem elusive and incomprehensible today. You might have difficulty focusing on books and your mind could wander during lectures or meditation. Conversation should shed light on what’s unclear to you. Ask friends who follow the same path. If nothing else, you’ll enjoy the discussion. GEMINI — Someone once said that you can’t be too rich, but today you may think this statement is false, at least when it comes to a friend. This person may have just come into some money and be discombobulated by it. He or she may ask your advice, but probably not follow it! Don’t feel bad about it. It’s out of your hands. At least you can manage your own funds. CANCER — A romantic partner may appear to be more concerned with business than with you right now. Some decisions need making, and your friend could be preoccupied with them through most of the evening. Passion for you still runs strong, but it’s been shoved into the background for now. Don’t think that you’ve lost your appeal. Wait until tomorrow and all should be normal again. LEO — You’re likely feeling strong, healthy, and energetic. You might be inclined to take on huge tasks, some of which are more appropriate for three people than one. Be careful. You could take on more than you can handle. The strength and energy you feel now could wilt under too heavy a load. Pace yourself! VIRGO — Today you may be obsessed with romance. Racy novels could be especially appealing, and you might try some experiments with how you look in order to enhance your sex appeal. If you try to schedule an intimate encounter with a partner, don’t be surprised if there are obstacles, such as your friend’s work. You might have to wait until tomorrow! LIBRA — Your household

could be a happy place tonight. Good food and lively conversation heighten the atmosphere as visitors and family members enjoy each other’s company. The only downside is that one of your gregarious friends may be feeling rather quiet tonight, listening when he or she is usually talking. Still, everyone’s having fun, even if it’s in a quieter way. SCORPIO — Too much to do around the house could have you running around like crazy. You may need to make a lot of calls, see too many people, or execute some rather tedious paperwork. This could have your nerves on edge by midafternoon, so take a few minutes for yourself every two hours or so. Step outside in the fresh air. This will calm you and help you stay sane. SAGITTARIUS — Did you celebrate last night? Happiness over a surprising turn of fortune is indicated, but so are a heavy head and hollow stomach from overindulging in food and drink! You probably would have indulged more if the conversation hadn’t been so intriguing. Take it easy today if you can. If you have a hectic day ahead, stay centered. Getting flustered can exacerbate your pain. CAPRICORN — It’s hard to stay centered now. Your mind is on something wonderful that’s happening for you. Yesterday it was a fantasy and now it’s real! You may be walking around in a daze trying to make sense of it all. Eventually you have to come down and face reality again, but there’s no need to do it now. Things like this don’t happen very often. AQUARIUS — An impromptu gathering including some neighbors could take place today. Someone could start a round of gossip, and this could turn you off. You might wonder if they’re going to start in on you when you leave! Don’t stick around. Listening to such talk could give you a headache. Gossip is the last refuge of people who have no life. PISCES — A temporary separation between you and a lover could have you experiencing mixed feelings. You may need some time to yourself, but you’ll miss your friend! Your insecurity could come up, and you may start wondering if there’s someone else with your partner. Concentrate on your projects and enjoy the peace and quiet. You’re making mountains out of molehills.

The Santa Barbara Police Department has been awarded a $228,000 grant to deter dangerous and illegal driving behaviors that increase the risk of crashes.
