City’s homeless crisis prompts hiring of new Sr. Advisor MATTHEW HALL Daily Press Editor
City Hall has created a new position with the City Manager’s Office dedicated to coordinating internal efforts to combat homelessness while also working with external government agencies to build regional solutions. The new position comes as homelessness is increasingly at the forefront of civic debate and city leaders said the level of focus and dedication needed to tackle the problem requires its own fulltime staff person.
“Our bandwidth, our resources have been overwhelmed and when that happens we have to start thinking about new ways to address the problem,” said Mayor Ted Winterer. He said City Hall is responding to a reprioritization of issues within the city and growing outcry from residents about homelessness within city limits. “The last couple of months, there’s not a day goes by that I don’t have some kind of outreach from a community member about homelessness,” he said.
Winterer said the new position will help with internal organization but he’s also expecting the new hire to help motivate surrounding agencies to step up their efforts because homelessness is a regional problem. “We do more than our fair share in terms of the resources we provide countywide,” he said. “We need to have someone out there going to other agencies to cooperate on the issue and advocate for other communities to step up. We’re looking for someone with enough experience at different lev-
els of government and relationships with those agencies to be able to open up doors for communication and action.” The early precedent for the role was the hiring of Ed Edelman, a former County Supervisor who was contracted by Santa Monica for a two-year stint to address homelessness within the City. Edelman is credited with making a substantial impact and City Manager Rick Cole said it was a model he referenced when he hired his first Sr. Advisor, Nelson Hernandez, to cover the airport.
Cole said there’s nothing “magical” about the title of Sr. Advisor but he wanted a job description that avoided the word “Czar” and the connotations that title brings. “This is different from the idea that one person is going to take charge of everything because, in my view, that’s actually counterproductive,” he said. According to Cole, homelessness reaches into many aspects of the city’s day to day life but is having a huge impact on local emerSEE POSITION PAGE 7

$658,805 Raised for Local Schools There were 1,195 donors contributed $658,805 to the Santa Monica-Malibu Education Foundation as part of a back-to-school giving campaign spearheaded by a $50,000 match from Santa Monica Place, owned by Macerich, and Kaiser Permanente. The funds raised will support arts programs, instructional assistants and stretch grants in Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District (SMMUSD) schools next year. Many schools use the grants to fund additional arts, science and student health and wellness programs. Donors contributed $157,598 on the last day of the match alone, a new record for the most ever raised from community donations on a single day in the Ed Foundation’s history. “This was a truly wonderful way to start our 2017 – 2018 campaign,” said Linda Greenberg, Executive Director of the Ed Foundation. “Thank you to Santa Monica Place and Kaiser Permanente for their inspiring leadership, to our Flash Match donors for their commitment to our students and to each donor for their dedication to excellent programs for all SMMUSD students.” The $50,000 match concluded September 6 and ran in conjuction with Pledge Days, a back- to – school giving campaign. The campaign also included four one-day, $2,500 “Flash Matches” from local businesses CodeREV Kids, Santa Monica Music Center, Green Brooms Music Academy and That Tutor Guy. “We are thrilled with the response from our local parents and community members,” said Julia B. Ladd, Assistant Vice President, Property Management at Santa Monica Place. “At Santa Monica Place, our goal is to contribute to a vibrant community and we are honored to fulfill that mission by helping to keep neighborhood schools strong.” Santa Monica Place and Kaiser Permanente each contributed $25,000 to the match-
ing funds. “This experience has been incredible,” said Yesenia Monsour, Director of Public Affairs & Brand Communications at Kaiser Permanent. “Our goal was to inspire others to join us in supporting vital programs in schools that are not funded by the state or other sources. The response is a testament to our community’s dedication to ensuring an excellent public education for all our local students.” Ed Foundation donations are funding $2.48 million in SMMUSD programs during the current school year. Fundraising for 2018 – 2019 school year programs will continue through June. - SUBMITTED BY ANN CONKLE, SMMEF COMMUNICATIONS AND EVENTS MANAGER

Ocean Park’s New Walking Wikipedia THE LATE RON ACCOSTA WAS BORN IN
WHEN BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO GOOD PEOPLE BECAUSE OF THE CARELESSNESS OR NEGLIGENCE OF OTHERS. • • • • • • • •
OpinionCommentary
Santa Monica in 1934 and was raised on Main Street where his father was a bookmaker. (Which made for Ron’s unique childhood, to put it mildly.) Seven decades later, Ron, a regular reader of my column, frequently sent me emails as a volunteer “fact checker” when the subject was Ocean Park history. Persistent but charming, Ron insisted we meet in person. (At 7 A.M. no less, when he went for his morning walk!) But it was worth getting up early as he was a treasure trove of great stories of old Santa Monica. As a result I wrote about Ron often, affectionately dubbing him “The Walking Wikipedia of Ocean Park.” Sadly for so many, Ron passed away in March of 2016. But thankfully his historical torch has been passed to a worthy heir, Richard Orton. In fact, tomorrow, Richard will be putting on a 45-minute lecture about Ocean Park history, enhanced by a slide show filled with intriguing photos from our neighborhood’s colorful past. The lecture highly entertaining and free to the public at the Ocean Park Library. Richard lives just a few blocks away on Second Street and we also have a lot in common. (Other than archaic AOL e-mail addresses!) Like me, he’s lived in O.P. since the 1970s, and like me he’s got a million stories to tell. One big difference is he’s got the photos to back it up! Richard and I were sitting at the Coffee Bean on Main Street one recent afternoon, discussing his upcoming lecture when he lamented, “The trouble is, push a button and I blather, I can’t stop myself. I know so much about the history of this neighborhood I sometimes get obnoxious about it.” The stories were so colorful and compelling I encouraged Richard to “blather away.” (One man’s blather is another man’s “please tell me more.”) Sure enough, Richard elaborated about all the changes to the neighborhood, just within our view. Across the street had been the Bible Way Mission. It was a flop house for the drunks that used to populate the dive bars on Main Street such as The Blue Fin and The Circle Bar before it became a hipster destination On the other side of Ashland, was Kilroy’s sandwich stand and on our side of the street, above a showroom for boats, was the legendary Richard Diebenkorn’s art studio. This was the space where he created the “Ocean Park Series,” paintings that ultimately sold for millions of dollars. While Orton
stressed how unique Ocean Park is, actually, he’s pretty unique himself. Growing up in Michigan, Richard couldn’t decide whether he wanted to be an architect, a comedy writer, or a film director. (But he had ruled out cowboy and fireman.) As early as grade school, he started drawing floor plans of houses he liked and by high school he was skilled at home design, layout, and building scale models houses. As for the comedy writer path, Richard’s sent one of his jokes to famed San Francisco columnist Herb Caen, which was later picked up by the Reader’s Digest. Richard was also making 8mm movies, spectacles with stories, titles, special effects, music and some were even produced in CinemaScope. So talented, he was accepted at UCLA Film School. So Richard traveled cross country to Westwood and began Film School. Needing affordable housing, he moved to Ocean Park. Known as “Dog Town,” back then, Ocean Park was the slum of Santa Monica. Rents were so cheap, people were living in the storefront businesses along Main Street growing hydroponic tomatoes in the front windows. As Richard notes in his lecture, Ocean Park’s real beginning came in 1874 when Nancy Lucas bought the land from the Machado family, paying $14 an acre. (Today $14 barely gets you a gourmet hamburger.) Lucas bought 1 sq. miles that stretched from the ocean to 20th Street, and from Pico south to what is now the city border. In addition to his amateur historian status, Richard’s fulfilling day job is selling real estate with Keller Williams in Santa Monica. In so doing he combines his passions for houses, architecture, neighborhood and local history. Richard is a terrific story teller and you will undoubtedly enjoy hearing his “Tales of Ocean Park” tomorrow. I know Ron Accosta would have loved hearing it. (As a bonus, for those who stick around for Q & A after the lecture, Richard will share some of the racier stories of our colorful neighborhood in his “Untold Tales of Ocean Park.”) Seating at the library’s wonderful meeting room downstairs is limited to about 60, so get there on time, or better yet, early. By the way, if you notice one unoccupied chair set aside from the others, that would be for Ron Accosta. The Ocean Park Library is at 2610 Main Street. “Tales of Ocean Park” begins at 3 .P.M.

Los Angeles deputy accused of sexually assaulting inmates BY MICHAEL BALSAMO Associated Press
A Los Angeles County sheriff ’s deputy accused of sexually assaulting two female jail inmates has been arrested, sheriff ’s officials said Thursday. Deputy Giancarlo Scotti, 31, was arrested on suspicion of two counts of rape and two counts of oral copulation under color of authority hours after the alleged incident Wednesday at the Century Regional Detention Center, Los Angeles County Sheriff Jim McDonnell said. Scotti was working the night shift at the jail, which houses about 2,000 inmates, when he went into the cell with the two inmates and engaged in sex acts with them, authorities said. One of the inmates reported the incident to a jail life skills teacher later Wednesday morning and investigators launched a probe, according to McDonnell. The deputy was arrested Wednesday
evening and has been placed on paid leave, McDonnell said. He is due to appear in court next month. The investigation has revealed no evidence so far that the deputy forced himself on the women or threatened them with a weapon, McDonnell said. The women are legally unable to consent to sex because they are prisoners. “This is a violation of the trust the public puts in us,” McDonnell said. “It’s disgusting to us, to anyone who wears a badge.” Scotti did not immediately respond to an Instagram message seeking comment. An effort to obtain a phone number for Scotti was unsuccessful and it was not immediately clear if he had an attorney. The Association of Los Angeles Deputy Sheriffs, Scotti’s union, urged the public to withhold judgment unless the allegations are proven but said there should be “zero tolerance for any law enforcement officer who is proven to have taken advantage of anyone who is in custody.”

gency responders, the library system, parks and the city’s social services employees. He said the default organizational structure of a city, with strongly defined departments, has its benefits but it isn’t always the best system for addressing a multi-faceted problem like homelessness. “That kind of comes with the territory, it isn’t something that’s broken about Santa Monica, it isn’t something that’s a flaw of the way we operate, there are tradeoffs,” he said. The clear responsibilities of a departmental structure help with accountability but it can also create confusion or overlap when an individual’s problems cross into so many different areas. In addition to motivating partner agencies, the new Sr. Advisor will help those multiple internal departments work more efficiently. “Given the increasing gravity of the regional homelessness crisis and its local impact,

having a Senior Advisor for Homelessness as a member of the City Manager’s Office could further our progress profoundly and meaningfully,” said the staff report presented to council this week. “Establishing such a position would locate policy, program, and funding development in the executive office, increase intergovernmental and community relations capacity, and provide community and regional stakeholders with a single point of contact with direct access to the City Manager and Council. Departments would continue to offer, evaluate, and improve the numerous services dedicated to addressing homelessness and implement the strategic goal team’s action plan.” Council approved $135,875 to fund the position for the remainder of this fiscal year and $184,284 for the 2018-19 fiscal year to fund the position.

■ The average human blinks 15 to 20 times per minute, 1,200 times per hour, 28,800 times per day. Our eyes are closed roughly 10 percent of waking hours due to blinking. Women blink nearly twice as often as men. Blinking helps lubricate the eyes and provide protection from dust or other debris, but researchers say it may serve another purpose: Briefly closing our eyes provides a momentary respite for the brain, allowing it to “go offline” and reset itself.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 15)
By PETER GALLAGHER
Strange Brew
By JOHN DEERING
As for that old tie that was holding you back, you get out of it this year, and it’s not even difficult, really; you just shake it off. A health kick in October will increase your vitality. A special relationship inspires you to achieve, but soon it becomes more than just impressing someone. A personal quest has begun. Capricorn and Taurus adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 14, 44, 18 and 20.
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
It’s not the situation that’s stumping you; it’s the way you’re looking at it. Which belief is causing you trouble? Root it out. Misconceptions are obstacles greater than any physical barrier to your happiness.
Building relationships effectively will require a certain coolness in your approach. Don’t be in a rush to add to other people’s lives. Find out what they really need first.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21) TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You’ll get quite a lot done in short bursts of time. It’s a matter of being organized enough to have your task close at hand when things get slow -- the equivalent of bringing your book to the waiting room of the doctor’s office.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21) Tourism isn’t just for travel. In a way, making a friend is like visiting a place you don’t live. And each visit, you get to know your way around that place a little better.
Words can be like keys. Some fit better than others, depending on the lock. You’ll learn what to say to express yourself more precisely and be received with more openness.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) People open up for different reasons. Some want attention. Some want sympathy. The best reason to open up is that it’s part of the natural, slow progression of a relationship headed for a more meaningful connection.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) CANCER (June 22-July 22) You’re deeply in love with the essence of someone, although the rest could be driving you bonkers today. Don’t take it too seriously. This is just a natural part of being close to someone.
Instead of just mentally noting the improvements you want to make, also write them down. There’s no harm in accounting for the fantasy version, too. It’s better to think too big than too small.
Dogs of C-Kennel
By MICK & MASON MASTROIANNI & JOHNNY HART
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You won’t have as much time to solve a problem as you might like. Given the restraints, you’ll have to either opt out or shoot from the hip. If you choose the improvisational option, it will be uncomfortable, but you’ll learn more.
One thing that will stop you from wanting to spend time with people in the future is sharing too much with them in the present. For today, keep your cards close to the vest. There’s no good reason to divulge.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Though hard work can accomplish much, so much more will be accomplished as a direct result of your confidence, ease and a laid-back attitude. Start by asking yourself what is really worth doing.
People will want to know your story, so you’ll get the chance to talk about yourself. Be sure to give a positive takeaway to the ending of your personal anecdotes -- easier to do when you’ve thought it through and assigned one.

Plutonian Perspective It takes a lot of energy to overturn the status quo, and right now that would be energy wasted. What’s needed is not a revolution but an exploration. In the spirit of yesterday’s fortunate solar position to Pluto, the big-picture perspective will connect us with a profound purpose. You’ll have to hike the proverbial mountain to see it.
