Residents and visitors fed up with homeless encampments By DAVE SCHWAB
W
ith proliferating homeless encampments in Pacific Beach tarnishing the community’s image and vibe, residents are looking for answers. "This situation is an utter shame, and downright incompatible with a healthy, thriving beach community,� said Brian White, president of all-volunteer Pacific Beach Town
Council. “The excessive number of homeless encampments and continued degradation in our beach area has created an unsavory atmosphere for residents, families, and vacationers. “Many feel threatened by aggressive behavior being displayed regularly by mentally unstable individuals roaming our streets, alleys, and boardwalks with impunity.� White passed along an email PBTC’s office received recently
‘It's only a matter of time before the adverse effects on tourism become irreversible.’ BRIAN WHITE, PRESIDENT OF PACIFIC BEACH TOWN COUNCIL
from tourists who regularly stay in PB to enjoy the beaches with their family. Excerpts from that email read: "My family and I have been vacationing in Pacific Beach at least four times a year for the past eight years. We try and sympathize with the homeless, but after last week, it
will be the last time‌ All we could see was the (boardwalk) homeless encampments along the sea wall (with tents). Homeless trash and urination were prevalent 24/7.â€? Continued the letter: “Both my wife and daughter were cornered on two separate occasions and cussed
out using the vilest language while crossing the boardwalk to get to the beach. Your city is dirty, filthy, unsanitary, and getting worse. I know there are other visitors that felt the same way. Too bad California, San Diego, and Pacific Beach." “This (letter) is one sample of a growing perception among vacationers and is heavily echoed by our community and those that live here permanently. It's out of control,� said White.

Maruta Gardner Playground opens at Bonita Cove in Mission Beach
O
n Monday, Nov. 9, Mayor Kevin L. Faulconer, Councilmember Jennifer Campbell, and community leaders celebrated the reopening Monday of the transformed Maruta Gardner Playground at Bonita Cove. The playground has been named in honor of Gardner, a longtime Mission Beach community leader who was tragically struck and killed by an impaired driver four years ago while she was painting over graffiti. The Bonita Cove playground replacement effort began as a private initiative launched by the Mission Beach Women’s Club and Gardner. Following the development of projects funded under the Mission Bay Park plan, this replacement project was folded into the larger one to incorporate both the Bonita Cove West comfort station and playground. When Gardner died, Faulconer pledged his support in naming the park in her honor. "Maruta Gardner's impact on this community continues to be felt throughout Mission Beach and, by dedicating Maruta Gardner Park today, we recognize the positive impact she had trying to make this neighborhood a better place every day,” said Campbell. The $3.4 million improvements to the park include the renovation of the half-acre playground, replacement of the comfort station,
a new shade structure, enhanced security lighting, and sidewalk and pedestrian curb ramps to meet Americans with Disabilities Act standards. “Maruta drove us all and renovating the Bonita Cove Playground was one of her last big passions,” said Nancie Geller and Cordelia Mendoza of the Mission Beach Women’s Club. “She succeeded at getting all of our members of the Women’s Club and the City onboard with the project, and today we reopened the beautiful, new playground in her honor. We know that children and families will enjoy playing in this park next to the beach for generations to come.” A former volunteer member of the City’s Park and Recreation Board, Faulconer pledged to build a new generation of parks in San Diego. The four pillars of his plan included improving the regional Mission Bay Park, opening 50 new or improved neighborhood parks in five years, partnering with the San Diego Unified School District to upgrade parks on school property, and producing a new master plan for San Diego’s park system for the first time in over 60 years. “The importance of quality parks and recreational opportunities has never been clearer as San Diego families have taken advantage of them to stay fit mentally and physically during
sustainability and resilience, equity, livability, and connectivity. The development of the Parks Master Plan will help implement the Climate Action Plan by providing a framework for thriving public spaces to be enjoyed by residents and visitors throughout the city.

this global pandemic,” Faulconer said. “The upgrades in Bonita Cove hold special meaning, and we’re proud to name it after a beloved San Diegan who lost her life while trying to make her community a better place.” MISSION BAY PARK Mission Bay Park is the largest aquatic park of its kind in the country and consists of more than 4,235 acres in roughly equal parts land and water. In 2018, Faulconer announced over $40 million in projects planned for Mission Bay Park that are the direct result of two voter-approved ballot initiatives he helped craft to dedicate millions of dollars to improve regional parks.
Then-Councilmember Faulconer helped author Proposition C in 2008 and later, as mayor, Measure J in 2016. Over the next five years, the City will implement several projects for environmental protection and infrastructure upgrades to improve Mission Bay Park, including new and improved playgrounds, comfort stations, and other public amenities. PARKS MASTER PLAN For the first time in more than 60 years, the City of San Diego is creating a new master plan for San Diego’s parks system. The Parks Master Plan aligns parks planning with the City of San Diego’s vision to achieve the shared Citywide goals of
50 PARKS IN 5 YEARS In 2016, Faulconer pledged to build 50 new and improved parks in five years. The City has broken ground or completed 47 parks so far with additional park projects currently in various stages of design or construction bid phases. The City also implemented reconstruction and replacement projects at 43 other neighborhood parks and recreation centers to upgrade lighting, pools, playground equipment, comfort stations, and sidewalk and curb ramps. PLAY ALL DAY PARKS PROGRAM The Play All Day Parks Program is an initiative put forth by Faulconer in partnership with the San Diego Unified School District to create new, shared recreational opportunities for San Diegans by designating school sites for community recreational use during non-school hours. Since 2016, the City and school district have opened 14 joint-use parks and have more than 30 additional sites in various stages of construction or planning phases.

Mixed reviews for parking meter pilot proposal in Pacific Beach By DAVE SCHWAB
S
ome push back was encountered during a Nov. 5 meeting on the proposed implementation of a year-long parking meter pilot study in the densest part of Garnet Avenue’s commercial district in Pacific Beach. Regina Sinsky-Crosby, chair of the PB Parking Advisory Board, presented detailed plans for creating a parking pilot program using new technology, not old-style metal meters. “The Community Parking District was established in Pacific Beach by the City Council in June 2005,” she said. “The goals are to address ongoing traffic concerns and identify issues with PB parking inventory, how difficult it is to park at certain times on Garnet, specifically weekends and prime business hours.” The Parking Advisory Board’s roster is drawn from PB Planning Group, PB Town Council, Discover PB, beautifulPB, and at-large neighborhood delegates representing the four quadrants of PB. “The Pacific Beach community has control over parking in our community,” noted Sinsky-Crosby. “Our community controls when, how, how much, how long metered parking would go into PB. Street parking is a resource we all share.
“There’s not enough available street parking during peak times, especially for retailers on Garnet. Within that two-hour commercial zone, drivers will cruise the neighborhood to find parking. This causes traffic congestion on Garnet and the adjacent streets.” Added Sinsky-Crosby: “The parking pilot is limited to 321 twohour-or-less-time-limited spaces in the commercial zone. CPD paid parking will help solve traffic problems. It’s a management solution and tool. It’s a revenue stream for Pacific Beach that stays in PB. “Benefits are keeping a chunk of that revenue from parking in PB, funding community improvement projects, increasing turnover for prime parking, increasing space availability, reducing traffic congestion, and increasing pedestrian safety.” Based on emailed feedback for the paid parking pilot program, 14 businesses surveyed inside the pilot area are in support and none are against. Twenty-three businesses did not respond to the survey and 10 businesses did not have contact information available. Five businesses outside the pilot zone support and one is against. Based on 13 public community meetings and events held since September, 18 residents have written to the PAC against parking and 15 have written in support. Three have written neutral
AVOIDING FUTURE TRUST OR WILL CONTESTS By: Dick McEntyre and Chris von der Lieth, Attorneys at Law Although most trusts and wills contain a “no contest clause,” disgruntled persons, especially one’s children, who feel they were improperly left out of a decedent’s disposition of property, may still vigorously challenge the provisions of the decedent’s document(s) in question following the deceased person’s death. The grounds for such a challenge can be: (1) alleged fraud or undue influence exacted by the taker under the trust or will; (2) purported lack of mental capacity of the trustor or testator resulting in the estate going to the “wrong beneficiary”; or (3) especially in the instance of children, when a child believes he or she was inadvertently left out (“forgotten”) of the trust or will. Such challenges can slow up the administration of the trust or estate, cause anxiety, and be very costly to all parties involved. To help avoid such a future challenge, when a trustor of a trust or the testator of a will believes there may be future discontent among his or her children, he or she should strongly
consider having a before-the-fact meeting with the children and advise them of his or her intentions regarding the future disposition of the trust and/or estate. While such a meeting may be uncomfortable, in the long run it could be beneficial, since it may well allow the trustor or testator to die in peace, knowing that there should be no challenge to his or her estate planning disposition, with its attendant delays, costs, and anxieties. Further, such a meeting may provide for a reconciliation of those presently estranged children. Another idea which may be helpful is making a videotape of the trustor’s or testator’s signing of the trust or will along with such trustor or testator making a statement of why he or she is making the disposition in question.
The above statements are not to be taken as legal advice for the reader’s particular situation. Richard F. McEntyre practices law in the area of estate planning and administration, having served the San Diego community as a lawyer for over 40 years.

suggestions for the pilot. Reaction to the pilot parking proposal was strong on Nov. 5, both for and against. “Now is not the time for Discover PB to pursue parking meters on Garnet, Hornblend, and Cass streets,” said PB resident Greg Daunoras after the meeting. “Our businesses need all the customers they can without additional cost burdens.” “Parking meters increase turnover, it’s just a fact,” argued one Zoom participant. “We have so much control over how we design this plan.” “Would you like me to come over to your block and put up parking meters without even considering what you’d like?” asked Gordon Froehlich, a Parking Advisory Board member representing PB’s northwest quadrant.
“If you place meters on Garnet in the commercial area people are going to be parking right in front of our house,” insisted another resident living near Garnet’s commercial district. Reacting to a comment about residential parking permits, Sinsky-Crosby replied: "The Parking Advisory Board is not proposing residential parking permits under the current pilot. However these types of annual, residential paid permits have been suggested by residents in several meetings. The Parking Advisory Board will be forming an ad hoc committee to explore residential parking permits in the future. But this is not part of the current pilot.” “Paid parking forces cars into the non-paid areas: That’s just a fact,” argued another participant. “Does it matter to anyone on
the board that the overwhelming majority of the community is vehemently opposed to this?” queried one parking meter opponent. “Nobody wants this. The fact that you’re trying to push this, sneak this through during a pandemic with these little Zoom meetings.” “The resident's opinion that ‘nobody wants this’ is false,” reacted Sinsky-Crosby after the meeting. “Every PB community group that has voted on this issue has voted in favor of the pilot. It is supported by PB Planning Group (9-3 vote on Nov. 11), beautifulPB (unanimous), Discover PB's board of directors (one vote against), and PB Town Council, which voted unanimously in favor.” Brian Curry, co-owner of a PB fitness facility, spoke in favor of the parking meter pilot. “The program is in conformance with the eco-district that we have in PB that discourages motorized transportation and encourages non-motorized transportation in PB, and actually is a companion to the City’s Climate Action Plan,” Curry said. “In the end, money does matter. Many of us have been trying forever to get some type of funding vehicle in PB. To me, the business district is the sore spot in PB. We need to improve our business district. This is an opportunity to do that.” READ MORE ONLINE AT sdnews.com
FAQ’s on proposed Pacific Beach parking meter pilot program Q: When and how will all paid parking infrastructure be removed if the pilot fails at the end of a year? Sara Berns, executive director of Discover PB: If the pilot is unsuccessful, we will coordinate with the Jonathan Carey, Parking Program manager with Office of the City Treasurer, who coordinates all parking meter installations/ removals. Their team is really efficient when installing/removing meters, so it shouldn't take more than a couple of weeks to remove the infrastructure/signage. Q: Are payouts to the communities monthly?
Berns: Community Parking Districts are reimbursed on a monthly basis by the City, but the budgets and annual plans are approved annually by the City Council. Parking districts are also allowed an advance of 15% of their total budget to pay for operations/ projects out the gate each fiscal year. Q: How does the City release the funds? Berns: Advances and reimbursements are wired to the managing entity's account and reimbursements are wired on a net 30 basis.

Q: How does Discover PB manage the funds? Berns: Discover PB would allocate funding each year for their own staff/operations and would be responsible for managing the parking district funds. PB would work closely with my department regarding reimbursements/budgets/annual plans/ acceptable uses of spending parking meter funds, etc., as we currently oversee three parking districts in Mid-City, University Heights, and Uptown as well as seven sub-districts in Downtown The Parking Advisory Board would review and approve the budget to be submitted to the City. Discover PB staff would administer, spending, documenting, and reporting to ensure compliance with City Council policy and approved budget items. The Parking Advisory Board would review and approve any RFP, proposals, and contracts in connection with parking revenue spending. Discover PB has a long history of managing city funding and the reimbursement process. The City requires an approved yearly budget and monthly reimbursement reports, which we would provide via our independently contracted bookkeeper and executive director. We adhere to General Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and are subject to a yearly audit.

Flu activity extremely low this season due to COVID-19 measures By JOSÉ A. ÁLVAREZ
A
total of 18 influenza cases have been reported in the county this season compared to 400 at the same time last year. County health officials believe this is the result of the preventive measures San Diegans are taking to fight the spread of COVID-19. “When the stay-at-home order was issued last season, flu cases dropped dramatically. We’re seeing the same trend this season, and we hope it continues,” said Wilma Wooten, M.D., M.P.H., County public health officer. “It’s clear that wearing a face covering, maintaining social distance, avoiding large crowds and taking other preventative measures are also helping to slow the spread of influenza.” Also, no influenza deaths have been reported this season, which began July 1 and will through June 30, 2021. In comparison, three flu-related deaths had been reported at the same time last year. A total of 108 San Diegans died from influenza last season. A greater number of San Diegans also are getting vaccinated this season compared to the same point last year. To date, nearly 818,660 people
have gotten flu shots compared to 746,095 at the same time last year. A total of 1,234,474 people got a flu shot last season, the highest on record. “San Diegans are stepping up to get vaccinated against influenza and that is also a good thing,” Wooten said. “A flu shot helps to lower the risk of San Diegans getting influenza and the novel coronavirus at the same time and prevent the local health care system from being overwhelmed.” The County Health and Human Services Agency publishes the Influenza Watch weekly report, which tracks key flu indicators and summarizes influenza surveillance in the region. WHERE TO GET A FLU SHOT The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that everyone 6 months and older get a flu shot every year. It takes about two weeks for immunity to develop. The influenza vaccine is now available at doctors’ offices and retail pharmacies and is covered by medical insurance. People with no health care coverage can get vaccinated at one of the County’s six public health centers or a local community clinic. To
find the nearest location, sandiegocounty.gov/iz or call 2-1-1. “The influenza vaccine is safe and effective,” Wooten said. “Get vaccinated now so that you can get protected when influenza begins to spread.” TIPS TO PREVENT THE FLU AND COVID-19 The novel coronavirus and influenza are both spread from person to person, especially indoors and in crowded places. Here are some tips to help you prevent COVID-19 and the flu: • Wash your hands properly and regularly or use a hand sanitizer. • Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, throw it away and wash your hands. • If you’re sick, stay home and isolate yourself from others. • Use a face covering when in public and close to others. They prevent spreading germs and viruses. • Maintain physical distance from others. • Avoid crowded places to decrease your risk of exposure.

Under the testing plan with UC San Diego Health, all employees and students would have access to PCR testing every two weeks on San Diego Unified campuses. Testing frequency would be adapted over time and based on virus and transmission rates, among other parameters. No decision has been reached on whether the testing would be mandatory, as district leaders say they want to assess voluntary compliance rates once implementation begins.

Students and school employees throughout San Diego Unified will receive regular COVID-19 tests with rapid results under a proposed agreement with UC San Diego Health. The testing program is the result of months of collaboration among the district, the San Diego Education Association, and UC San Diego in an effort to keep schools safe as in-person instruction is expanded gradually and in phases. The San Diego Unified Board of Education is meeting tonight to authorize an initial $5 million investment in the testing plan, which includes a joint laboratory services testing agreement with UC San Diego Medical Center. Following approval, the county’s largest school district and UC San Diego Health will select several campuses where testing will begin. Eventually, the program could be expanded to include all 100,000 students within the district and its more than 10,000 staff members. From the beginning of the pandemic, UC San Diego Health has provided expansive and growing COVID-19 testing services to patients, university faculty, students and staff and to external organizations and communities.

La Jolla residents complain about Black Lives Matter messages on bike path By DAVE SCHWAB
B
lack Lives Matter chalk drawings recently created on the popular Fay Avenue Bike Path between La Jolla Village and Bird Rock have touched off a community controversy over the proper place of politically motivated art in public spaces. At La Jolla Parks & Beaches, Inc.’s Oct. 26 meeting, Earl Edwards, athletic director at UC San Diego, was invited to address questions arising from LJPB board members’ comments about the bike path BLM chalk art from a previous meeting. Two board members had questioned the legality of unauthorized chalk art about BLM in the public rightof-way on the bike path. They expressed their personal views that those drawings constituted graffiti, not art while questioning the appropriateness of allowing such politically motivated expression in public places, including rights-of-way. “At our last meeting, Barbara Bry’s office reported that the legal department had determined that the City would cease erasing BLM chalk art in the public right-of-way on the Fay Avenue Bike path because it was protected by the First Amendment,” said LJPB board president Ann Dynes. “I subsequently received

complaints from members of the public contending two of our board members had taken racist positions and calling for their removal. I shared their complaints with those board members and attempted to respond to these complaints. But my explanation was unsatisfactory to those folks (complainants).” Edwards, director of athletics
at UC San Diego since 2000, expressed his views about BLM and its significance to the LJPB board. He noted that a surprising number of things including traffic lights, blood banks, ironing boards, and automatic elevator doors, among others, had all been invented by Black men and women. Edwards talked about why he
became active in speaking out about BLM. “Unfortunately, it was the murder of George Floyd,” said Edwards. “As a Black man, when I watched him being murdered … that was the time I said, ‘OK. This is it. I’m no longer going to be silent when it comes to racism in our society.’” Edwards said he was told early
on, “I had to be twice as good to get the same opportunities as others, and that the best I could do in a career would be a mechanic.” Edwards listed several categories in which, he claimed, Black people and other people of color are not being treated equitably. “Did you know that Black people are two to three times more likely to get pulled over or stopped by police … that a white person is two times as likely as a Black person with the same qualifications to get a job interview … that Black people in hospitals are more likely to not be given more pain medication because of the belief they have a higher (pain) tolerance … or that Black children are more likely to be suspended or expelled from school for the same challenging behavior as white children?” Concluded Edwards: “I encourage all of you to use your influence to combat racism in our society. Our sphere of influence – friends, family, organizations you belong to, the workplace – is greater than you think. Speak up and educate when it comes to racism. I encourage all of you to examine your own biases and consider where they come from. I’m confident, if we all do our part to fight racism and social injustice in our society, that we will end up in a better place.”

La Jolla veteran and Purple Heart recipient reflects on the random chaos of war White Sands resident Bob Tauber was 20 years old when he was injured at The Battle of the Bulge. Bob Tauber can retrieve details from 76 years ago like it was just last week. From his home at White Sands La Jolla senior living community, he fondly reflects on his service during World War II, and his participation in one of its most pivotal conflicts – The Battle of the Bulge. A Chicago native, Tauber originally enlisted in the Navy, only to be rejected due to partial red-green color blindness. Instead, he went to community college, where he was eventually drafted into the Army. “They gave me a choice – infantry or cavalry,” said Tauber, who turned 96 on Halloween. “I knew how to ride a horse, so I chose cavalry. Little did I know it was mechanized, so that’s how I wound up in the 94th Cavalry [14th Armored Division] under Patton.” Tauber, 20 at the time, was part of a fast-moving, lightly armored group whose main job was intelligence. Always the tip of the spear, they maintained constant contact with the enemy to source numbers, weapons, strengths, weaknesses – all without being killed or captured. In the dead of night on New Year’s Eve, 1944, Tauber’s position was attacked in what would become The Battle of the Bulge. Chaos reigned; at times friend only distinguished from foe by the silhouette of a helmet in the moonlight. Armed only with a Thompson submachine gun, Tauber’s orders were to simply slow the advance down. “We couldn’t hold back their tanks,” he said. “We had 37mm cannons, but it was like throwing ping-pong balls at their Tiger tanks.” Sometime during the night, Tauber was hit in the arm by a mortar shell or anti-personnel weapon. With the help of a morphine syrette and a tourniquet, he walked the mile-and-a-half back to an aid station for treatment. He spent nearly a month recovering in a hospital in France, where he confronted the atrocity of what they were fighting against. “They came to my ward and said
they needed volunteers to unload survivors of concentration camps,” he recalled. “That’s one thing I’ll never forget – putting these guys on the stretchers. Some of them never made it to the hospital before they died.” After he recovered, Tauber reunited with his outfit where he finished the war in Bavaria, or so he thought. “I was sent to a replacement depot in France and was told to wait there until a ship came; we were to help with the invasion of Japan. They were estimating a million U.S. casualties. I thought, ‘I’ll never survive this.’” But the atomic bombs scuttled those plans, and the war, and his service, truly came to an end. When he returned stateside, Tauber went back to school where he earned an engineering degree from the University of California at Berkeley in 1949. Eventually, he and his family settled in San Diego, where he started a company that provided custom battery packs for medical instruments, universities, oceanographic equipment, grocery stores and other business in 49 of 50 states. These days, from his home at White Sands La Jolla, Tauber keeps busy with a favorite novel or walking Roxy, his beloved pup, around the oceanfront campus. At various times in the year, and around Veterans Day in particular, he often finds himself reflecting on what he lived through. “When I was 20, I often wondered if I’d live to see 21, to see my family again, to get married, or would I die in this snow-covered forest in Germany,” he said. “Fortunately, I didn’t. You realize that so much in life is out of your control, so many things are going on that affect your life. There were so many comrades in the wrong place at the wrong time. It could’ve been you. You had no control; it was just random chaos.” According to the National WWII Museum, only 2% of the 16 million Americans who served during World War II are with us to share their stories. It’s a reality Tauber knows all too well. “I’m the last one standing [from his friends in his outfit] – they’re all gone, as far as I know.”

8 BUSINESS County moves to Purple Tier; restrictions to start Nov. 14 FRIDAY · NOVEMBER 13, 2020
BEACH & BAY PRESS / LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS
Restaurants, gyms, worship centers, museums must cease indoor operations By DAVE SCHWAB
R
ising COVID metrics have forced the county to slip back from the red tier to the most-restrictive purple tier, which means indoor operations will once again be prohibited at restaurants, bars, fitness centers, worship centers, movie theaters, museums, zoos, and aquariums. Restaurants will once again have to turn themselves inside out, finding creative ways to move outdoors, or close. Many retail businesses will be required now to further limit capacity. Schools will not be permitted to return to in-person learning while San Diego remains in the purple tier. Two weeks of coronavirus case rates exceeding the state-mandated threshold of 7 per 100,000 residents, finally triggered the county’s downgrade from the red to the purple tier. B eg i n n i ng Nov. 14 at midnight: • Restaurants will have to close indoor operations and operate outdoors only. • Fitness centers and gyms must close indoor operations but can operate outdoors. This includes fitness centers in hotels and lodging. • Indoor operations at
retailers will be capped at 25% occupancy. • Hair salons, barbershops, tattoo parlors, and estheticians can remain open for indoor operations, but with social-distancing modifications. • Auto repair, appliance repair, plumbing, and other services can remain open with modifications. • Bars, breweries, and wineries with no food service will have to close. Residents and business owners in Mission and Pacific beaches as well as La Jolla reacted to the news with a mixture of anger, sadness, and resignation. “The tier system is a good measure of how communities are doing in controlling the spread of the coronavirus,” said Janie Emerson of La Jolla Shores. “It is a shame that those who aren’t wearing masks and not social distancing are spoiling the economic recovery for all of us. “This virus is highly contagious and is airborne. For now, the only way to break the vicious cycle of infection is to wear masks and social distance.” Some others, however, expressed disillusion with the present color-coded health protocol system and how it’s being implemented.

"It's truly unfortunate to see our county backslide into a more restrictive tier, and the effect that will have on local businesses that have been playing by the rules and are just barely scraping by,” said Brian White, president of Pacific Beach Town Council. “I respect the public health experts, but the state's chokehold on our local economy is becoming unbearable as livelihoods are destroyed. “Vulnerable segments of our population should protect themselves and take all precautions necessary for their health and safety. At this point, local businesses should be allowed to operate with reasonable safety plans in place." Greg Knight, a Mission Beach small-business owner, was at his whit’s end. “We are simply sick and tired of our business feeling as if it is on a yo-yo with these closings
and openings,” he said. “We are having a hard time planning our business for next week, not to mention next month and next year. We continue to feel as if our business is treading water with bricks attached to our feet.” “We all feel bad for our friends and neighbors who own local businesses,” said Greg Daunoras of PB. “But I do believe the color-coded restrictions do work well.” “Looking at the stats, I would think that if you are older or at a high-risk, you should stay at home,” said PB resident Henish Pulickal. “Let everyone else do what they want, potentially get sick, and speed up the rate of herd immunity. Our hospitals are not overburdened in San Diego, even though it's reported that other parts of the country may have more problems. We can handle more sick people in our healthcare system locally.” PB restaurateur Mark Oliver, who owns Pueblo, shared his thoughts. “The state should coordinate the effort of managing the pandemic protocols, grading each county as they now do,” he said. “This gives each county a point of reference by which to gauge their progress.” Oliver suggested indoor dining
can be made safe “by placing limits on occupancy levels. Eliminating any indoor dining… will cause the permanent closure of many restaurants and the loss of thousands of jobs. The loss of taxes and fees generated by businesses will be setting the county back financially in a way that will impact residents for years to come.” PB resident Paula Gandolfo noted, “U.S. citizens are blowing it. State protocols must include County restrictions. This wildfire is out of control and the vaccines won't come soon enough. Mask-up to interrupt community spread.” Sara Berns, speaking for PB’s business improvement district, said, “Discover PB is disappointed with the move today into a more restrictive tier, being that it is right before the holiday season, which is often a crucial couple of months before our businesses head into slower winter months.” Added Berns: “We are glad to see that health and beauty services will be able to stay open with modifications and most businesses will have some kind of operating ability. We want to encourage people to support businesses now more than ever when considering your holiday See PURPLE TIER, Page 10

Guava Beach Bar & Grill has become a mainstay of Mission Beach community By DAVE SCHWAB
G
uava Beach Bar & Grill has been a mainstay of the Mission Beach restaurant scene for the past 18 years. But it hasn’t always been that way. “It had pretty much been run into the ground,” said eatery co-owner Eric Christiansen of Minnesota who purchased Guava Beach, along with business partner Ben Cseri of San Diego, in 2002. “It had bright fluorescent lighting and the first time we went in there on a Friday or a Saturday night in the middle of summer there was only one person in there – and that was the boy or girlfriend of the bartender.” New ownership quickly turned things around. “We didn’t have a lot of money but we came in and started over, trying to clean it up and rebuild its reputation,” said Christiansen. “We kept a lot of the same staff, established a sense of trust, and changed the menu into an eclectic bar and grill menu that had south-of-theborder influences.” Christiansen said Guava Beach’s
OPEN
FOR
menu today features nachos and lots of tacos, including tasty items like mahi-mahi tuna and deep-fried codfish, as well as food made mostly from scratch. “We also do stuffed burgers, like our old smokey bacon burger made with smoked Gouda cheese,” he said. Mission Beach’s character has changed a lot over the years. “Eighteen years ago it was much more tourist-centered and seasonal with more students,” Christiansen said, adding the restaurant now caters a lot more to locals and their families, particularly during the offpeak non-summer months. And Guava Beach’s restored reputation has endured with Christiansen noting “business has been pretty good,” even during the pandemic.
ancy’s Nails in La Jolla has taken that extra step – or two – in cleansing the salon to comply with COVID health protocols. “Nail salons have been very careful in preparing for the safety and comfort of clients during the pandemic,” assured a masked Holly Nguyen, who’s owned Nancy’s Nails at 721 Pearl St. for nearly 14 years. “We have a lot of regular customers,” noted Nguyen, a Vietnamese native who is known to her clients by her first name only. “The problem now is the pandemic. People are afraid to come.” Holly noted COVID has not been good for business. “A lot of our customers we haven’t seen since March,” she said. The salon owner glanced down a line of plastic-shielded, socially distanced serving stations where female patrons were being closely tended to. She discussed health protocols in place which are strictly adhered to by her, her staff, and all of her clients. “We put guidelines on signs where everyone can see, asking people to keep their masks on and to keep socially distanced while washing their hands before getting service,” said Holly. “We have shields everywhere for the pedicures and manicures. They (clients) are confident.”

“I’m a regular customer, I’ve been coming here every week for seven years,” agreed La Jollan Adrian Roberts, who was in Nancy’s Nails on a Friday afternoon for a little pampering. “I feel very at ease. They’ve done everything beautifully. The shop is meticulous. That’s why I come here.” Since the pandemic, Roberts said she is very careful about only going to places where she feels safe, adding Nancy’s Nails is one of the few. “They have the shields, they have the masks, everything is fine,” Roberts concluded. Roberts added Holly is renowned for her salon Christmas trees, which she said are, “A different theme a different color, every year. And there are very incredible

ornaments which she stores.” Nancy’s Nails was closed when the county was in the purple tier and has been reopened for about two months since the last COVIDforced closure. “If we have to close again, it will be the third time,” said Holly as San Diego County was on the verge of slipping back into the purple tier. A person has to go to cosmetology school to become a nail technician, said Holly, who added applicants must go to Los Angeles to the state board to take a written test to become licensed. She said Vietnamese people often gravitate toward the salon industry because “they are good with hand skills and they’re patient. READ MORE ONLINE AT sdnews.com

shopping … Check out some of your local retailers for online shopping and delivery. In the meantime, we hope people will continue to wear a mask, social distance, and safely plan the holidays so that we can get our businesses back open ASAP.” “It’s going to be tough on PB’s businesses, especially on Garnet,” said Eve Anderson of PB. “However, there is an answer: Wear your masks. If only those visiting our area had worn them earlier, we wouldn’t be in this position. It should be
mandatory at purple level – or even red for that matter –- so our businesses could stay open. They’ve added appropriate precautions and I hate to see them have to shut down again.” Another PB restaurateur, Joe Bettles, feels relatively lucky amid the pandemic. “Kono's is fortunate to have ample outdoor seating and to have had the ability to keep our indoors closed,” he said. “I feel bad for the businesses that aren't in this position. At the same time, I understand that these protocols only work when we all work together to keep everyone safe and healthy. Our priority has been, and continues to be,
BUSINESS the health and safety of employees and customers.” "We can't make the cure worse than the disease,” said Scott Chipman of Pacific Beach. “It appears that is what we have been doing. Lockdowns were intended only to keep hospitals and medical services from becoming overwhelmed. The lockdowns should not be used to try to keep anyone from becoming infected. Now that we have therapeutics and better methods for treatment and death rates are known to be very low per infection, the governor should revise qualifications for the tiers at least one level based on the evolving conditions and treatments.”

“We now have vacation renters from Arizona coming out and staying longer,” he said adding, “We have more families coming in now and students coming in to study with our Wi-Fi.” Though Guava Beach was shut down for a time due to the coronavirus, Christiansen noted he and Cseri used the break to repaint the entire building inside and out. Since re-opening, Guava Beach has enhanced its outdoor dining putting in a parklet adding 10 tables and artificial turf.
Of the restaurant’s ambiance, Christiansen said, “We’re very casual and eclectic with a sports clientele with 13 big TVs. We are home to the Minnesota Vikings, Denver Broncos, and Washington Huskies.” Locals are much more a part of the everyday scene now at Guava Beach, noted Christiansen. “We’ve gotten to know the locals, some of whom come in several times a week,” he said. “We’re like Cheers. They know our names. We know their names. They’re our bread and butter. Without the locals, we would never have survived.” READ MORE ONLINE AT sdnews.com

Property taxes will be impacted by changes to Prop 13 and Prop 58 With five months left to prepare, evaluate and possibly appeal your property taxes buildings and other commercial properties are assessed at full market value when you transfer title to your children.” Paramount is one of the few firms of this kind with unique property tax reduction solutions and proprietary programs to make sure parents can pass down their low assessed value in the future to their children. Even if property is held in an LLC or a trust. Nichols explains: “This year,
Californians face unprecedented tax challenges unlike any year prior, due in part to the COVID shutdown and resulting economic crisis impacting property values and estate planning requirements. However, families with estate planning needs have three months before the doors for California property tax relief from Prop 13 and Prop 58 slam shut – if Prop 19 and Prop 15 become law. Thereby dismantling key tax breaks

Wes Nichols, president of Paramount Property Tax Appeal Service, is ringing an alarm bell right now, suggesting that the deadline is growing closer for property owners in California to look into preparing themselves for all property tax eventualities, concerning potential revisions of long standing, widely utilized tax breaks. Pa ra mou nt i s i nv it i ng California property owners to take advantage of the firm’s unprecedented offer of a free consultation regarding property tax reduction – specifically property appraisal; real property tax appeal, business property tax appeal, and business personal property tax compliance. Nichols announced this week: “Families have to get in now to see us so we can complete their paperwork in terms of locking in their future tax base. Prop 19 is different than the Prop 15 ‘Split Roll’ tax. With Prop 19, folks have until February 2021 to complete estate planning in order to pass down low assessed values to their children. “Prop 19 is designed to eliminate the parent-to-child exemption for properties that are not owner-occupied homes within a year. This means apartment

protected by the Parent-to-Child Exemption, avoiding property tax reassessment. “Folks should understand that by engaging us now, you start the process of setting up your tax appeal; to reduce your overall tax burden. Waiting until you’re too close to the appeals deadline can be a recipe for disaster. Bottom line, we truly do enjoy helping people – middle class and working families, not just wealthy folks.”
In unprecedented fashion, the firm is inviting property owners and families looking to lower their property taxes and/or transfer property to heirs, to get a free evaluation – or to call their office at 858-225-1200 with the option to come in and sit down informally with a property tax specialist, and discuss their property tax and/or business personal property tax issues.

La Jolla High senior misses the sights and sounds of in-school learning
I
have mixed feelings about distanced learning. I like that I can use my own bathroom, wear sweatpants, eat food from my house, and sit barefoot on my couch during my school day. However, that’s about it. I miss school so badly and I don’t like being home this much. I’ve gotten used to dividing up my day because it helps me expend energy and have different chapters in my days. Last year my day went like so. I woke up and got dressed and came to school 10 to 15 minutes early just to hang out with my friends and chat. Then I’d wander into my first-period class and listen to Mr. Tellers and some smart boy discuss a miscellaneous cinematic historical reference or a comical political instance. I’d be in two sweatshirts freezing but enjoying a very easy-going start to my day. Then when first period would begin I had
class and put my phone up in the wall pockets of my enviro class. Some days there were lectures and others there were walks to the beach. Although, sometimes we were improperly dressed for these occasions and would sweat exceedingly through our unneeded layers. Always, once we met at the top of the Westbourne stairs pinkfaced and awkward, the water always seemed to know we were coming and she was completely clear and all the clouds were all hidden. I miss it a lot. Fourth period I almost always arrived early and would sit in the back listening to the wrap-up of my freshman English teacher’s homework instructions. Nostalgia for my freshman year that felt like yesterday and eons ago at the same time filled me up each day and I developed an appreciation and an acknowledgment that my time at this school would be quick. Then I’d wander into his office and sit on his couch and vent about my problems and he would laugh and assure me he wasn’t listening and I’d assure him that he was and that he was my favorite therapist. He’d roll his eyes and shake his head, but I know he enjoyed my perspective on the complaints I enunciated about whatever was happening in the news. Then the ASB student president

but my math teacher was funny and students usually made incoherent remarks that kept you smiling and carried on the period efficiently and enjoyably. Last period, I walked with my friend from fifth grade all the way across campus to the library to my college class that I actually only had twice a week. Which was indeed wonderful. I miss the way we learned. I miss the absence of blue light headaches. I miss making some sort of effort into my outfit and I miss the overflow of caffeine and ADHD medicine. I miss the kids that you’d see and talk to every day in class but not necessarily outside of school. I miss meaningless conversations with your teachers about music. I miss the sea breeze at school and the loud birds after lunch. I miss coming home and telling my parents about what I learned, what someone said, and what events the school had coming up on the calendar. I miss tutoring and club meetings. I miss football games and lunchtime makeup tests. I miss my teachers, my colorfully organized binders, girls complimenting each other in the hallway, and awkward assemblies. I am aware of why we can’t return right now and I do not blame anyone for it... but I miss school. Amaya Bishop is a senior at La Jolla High School.

would begin with instructions and I’d scurry to my sit as they rolled their eyes to because I could never really stop talking. They’d explain what we had planned for the week and what we were to get done. I had my best friends in this class and my favorite people and my favorite adults. Some days we made football posters, others we called venues, and on the prime days we’d go to the village and pick up posters and flyers from Copy Cove. The clock would ring at 12:44 and we’d meander out to lunch. My friends and I sat on the ground in a hodgepodge group where the guys complained about an assignment they forgot about and the girls shook their heads. We sat and stood eating Hot Cheetos, sandwiches, or smoothies dropped off by somebody’s cool older sister, and there was always one girl that had extra energy. She would sort of frolic around as she told a story that the majority of the group wasn’t following. She’d interrupt herself with a burst of infectious laughter leading everyone away from what she was even talking about and laughed uncontrollably as well. Fifth period I walked with a few of my guy friends who had classes near mine and we’d hold our foreheads concerned about whether or not we had math tests. The classroom was always hot

taken notes the night before, so I would sit and listen to my favorite subject and all of the extra stories embedded into the curriculum by Mr. Tellers. In a classroom covered in flags, army helmets, vintage propaganda, the ’70s pop culture posters, and faux shrunken heads, I would sit and drink my first yerba mate tea as my hands began their daily shakes. I had all my seminar friends, track friends, and after school friends in my different classes and I always enjoyed hearing about everyone’s weekends or seeing the artistic kids new drawings. The next period was English. I would trudge up the stairs and wave, smile, or tap my friends on their shoulders in the hallway and stroll into second period. I sat next to one of my closest friends and we were positioned right in the front next to our teacher. She was the sweetest lady ever and I miss her. We’d take notes, and read stories or essays, and in the midst of corrections converse over our weekend plans or homecoming dresses or the new season of “The Bachelor.” Next, I had third period and I would frequent the bathroom to fix my hair and say hello to the usual suspects that gathered there as well. While taming flyaways, spilled gossip would flutter past my ears that I’d pick up bits and pieces of and giggle as I approached my

Former La Jolla restaurateur will be sentenced Nov. 17 By NEAL PUTNAM
A
former La Jolla restaurateur will be sentenced Tuesday, Nov. 17 on 20 sex charges involving four women. The prosecutor said she will be asking for 58 years in state prison. The sentencing of Daniel Dorado, now 62, will be online only from the San Diego Superior Court website, in which viewers can hear the live audio of the sentencing by Judge Charles Rogers. The plan was to have the sentencing in February or March 2021 when people can attend the hearing. But Dorado said in open court Nov. 6 he wanted it over with and that he will make a statement. “I don’t want to prolong this,” said Dorado to Rogers. Dorado said he heard that Rogers is retiring and he wanted Rogers to sentence him since he presided over the three-week trial in December 2019. Rogers told him not to consider his possible retirement. The courthouse is still mostly closed due to the spread of COVID-19, but most of the hearings are broadcast on sdcourt. ca.gov/Criminal with audio-only. People who wish to hear the 9 a.m. sentencing can log onto the website and select Department 1002 in San Diego Superior Court, said Emily Cox, spokesperson for the court. Deputy District Attorney Jessica Coto said at least one victim will speak at the sentencing. The attorneys and witnesses will likely appear remotely and Dorado will appear on a video feed in a room from the George Bailey Detention Facility. His attorney, Kim Santini, said Nov. 6 she has advised Dorado not to make a
public statement at the sentencing. She said she will be asking for probation. Dorado has been in jail since a jury convicted him of 20 counts on Dec. 20. Jurors determined the victims were either unconscious or too intoxicated to give consent. Jurors acquitted him of three counts. Dorado testified on Dec. 11 that all sex acts with eight women aged 22-57 were consensual. He denied drugging the women and said they were lying about being sexually assaulted. Most of the women said they woke up in the early morning hours in either a hotel room, Dorado’s home, or the restaurant itself. One woman said she woke up to discover she was naked on the floor of the Voce Del Mare restaurant at 5721 La Jolla Blvd. The restaurant closed after Dorado was arrested on March 28, 2018. Jurors eventually deadlocked on 12 charges involving three women on Dec. 30 because they ran out of time and jurors who could serve, as all of the alternates became jurors. Dorado was found guilty of six counts of oral copulation, six counts of rape, four counts of digital penetration, and four counts of assault with intent to commit rape. The DA’s office may ask for a second trial on the remaining 12 counts, but if he gets a substantial sentence, they may decide against that. Some of the women were applying for a job with Dorado, and others met him on a dating website. The incidents occurred in 2009, 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2018.

Expanding my professional career and a new beginning in New Hampshire
Doing it Better By Natasha Josefowitz, Ph.D.
In 1971, at one of the monthly lectures held at the child-guidance clinic where I worked, Dr. Marshall Klaus came to talk about his research on maternal infant bonding. He had been to South America and the United States and was now studying the same in Switzerland. As the only bilingual staff member, I became his translator since he could not speak French. After his lecture, he asked if I would be willing to accompany him as his translator during his travels through Switzerland. At the time, I was working on my Ph.D. thesis on children services in French-speaking Switzerland and thought we would have similar interests. I accepted his offer. During the long car rides we talked about his research; I contributed my ideas which he included in his book, “Maternal Infant Bonding.” The book emphasized the importance of this early relationship on the growth and well-being of the child, even into later years. Up on r et u r n i n g home, he called to ask if I would
be interested in meeting an American professor sent from Harvard University to start a satellite business school in Lausanne, as he had done in Calcutta and Amsterdam. He was looking for a social worker to work with him as consultants to a local hospital. I agreed to meet this professor. That evening I met Dr. Herman Gadon, and we decided that we could work together. This was the beginning of our consulting partnership. Herman had many other consulting jobs in both non-profit and industry. In the 1960s encounter groups were taking off in the U.S. and becoming popular in Europe. Living in Switzerland, I had the opportunity to be trained in group dynamics, particularly in the Tavistock Method. So when Herman was approached to lead a week-long encounter group for executives of IBM International in Geneva, I joined him in this endeavor. We were a great team and went on to lead similar groups in other parts of Switzerland as well as in Paris. At the end of Herman’s twoyear assignment in Lausanne, having successfully launched IMEDE, the satellite Harvard Business School, it was time for him to return to the United States, where he helped to start a new business school at the
University of New Hampshire. At the prospect of separation, we both acknowledged that we had fallen in love. Herman asked me to join him as a faculty member at UNH. Herman thought I would fit in as I taught using the casework method while the members of business faculty who were teaching the Harvard case method. Both my children had graduated from high school and were enrolled in American colleges. Sam was seldom home, constantly traveling for his business, while I worked at the Lausanne School of Social Work and the Child Guidance Clinic. After 25 years of marriage, I was faced with a most difficult decision, both professionally and personally. Given the escalating and lengthy number of separations from Sam, I went out on a limb and followed Herman to the United States. I started my new life teaching at the University of New Hampshire (UNH), first as a visiting lecturer, then as an assistant professor, and eventually as an associate professor at the Whittemore School of Business and Economics (WSBE). That f i rst yea r in New Hampshire, we lived like gypsies, staying at the homes of various professors while they went on sabbatical leave. Moving around didn’t matter; we were
happy together. Eventually we were able to buy our own home. It was a little house with the Oyster River flowing through the backyard. In the summer months, Herman would catch trout in the river. In the winter months the river would freeze; we cross-country skied on it together. On snowy days, the roads were not always plowed so we had to ski to our classrooms. UNH was located in the small town of Durham, a lovely rural setting. It was a tight-knit, closed community which made it difficult for me to integrate. When Herman returned to the States with a red-headed Swiss woman and a French accent, it did not go over well in this small community. I was not welcomed at first and was excluded from social gatherings; this was a very tough time for me. UNH President Gene Mills and his wife Dottie made it their business to include me in their get-togethers to ensure that I would be seen as part of the legitimate faculty. I am forever grateful to them both for helping me to be accepted as a member of the university. Natasha Josefowitz is the author of 21 books.

Proceedings suspended in attempted kidnap case in La Jolla By NEAL PUTNAM
All criminal proceedings were suspended Thursday in the attempted kidnapping case of a man who tried to take a baby from a nanny in a La Jolla park and then went to escape into the ocean. Attorney Damian Lowe, who represents Michael Hudson, 51, told San Diego Superior Court Judge Laura Halgren he didn’t think Hudson was mentally competent to understand court proceedings. Halgren ordered that Hudson undergo a psychiatric exam in jail on Dec. 3 and another judge will review the report in a Dec. 17 hearing. If a judge finds Hudson is competent, criminal proceedings will resume, but if he is found incompetent, he would be sent to a state mental hospital for treatment. The incident occurred Oct. 14 at 4:30 p.m. in a park on La Jolla Hermosa Avenue. The nanny told police the man began arguing with her, saying she was Hispanic and the child was white. The nanny told police he said she “can’t have the baby” and told her to leave the baby. READ MORE ONLINE AT sdnews.com
