Mayoral candidates hold a passion for Oxnard

By Chris Frost chris@tricountysentry.com Oxnard-- The Oxnard Mayoral Forum continues with Richard Linares thanking the INCO for providing candidates a venue to educate voters about the different choices they can make for mayor.

He told the viewers that the forum is a match to see who wins, and hopes that no one walks away with any hard feelings.

“I have nothing but love and respect for you, and I pray for you on a regular basis,” he said. “This is a political race. It’s not about the person who is the weakest; it’s

about the person who shows their greatest strength.”

He also applauded Deirdre Frank and was thrilled that she entered the race.

“If I’m not the next mayor, I would be honored to have you as the next mayor,” Linares said.

He also took issue with Candidate John Zaragoza about

his journeyman label and his experience.

“What has all his experience gotten Ventura County and the City of Oxnard,” Linares asked.

“You were the supervisor of the City of Oxnard, John Zaragoza; you were a council member.

Oxnard is where it’s at for the last 100 years because of its leadership and specifically the last 20 years of leadership. Please, as you continue to come at me with your experience and me making a joke, I am an educated, Hispanic, Latino, gay, Christian. I know my n Mayoral candidates, see page 7

STATEPOINT CROSSWORD THEME: HALLOWEEN

L

ET’S talk about the Fair Political Practices Commission. There is a keyword here, and that is FAIR!!!!

The commission sets the road rules for media outlets, so all candidates get treated the same. This is important. Any media company that favors one candidate over another is a crummy media outlet and should not be supported. Bluntly put, they suck!

Here are the rules: “1) You cannot charge more than your customary rate for comparable advertising. 2) You also cannot favor one candidate over another with your rates. 3) You can give volume or other discounts, so long as they are equally available to all political ad sponsors.�

NEWS Flynn and Ramirez offer solutions to mitigate homelessness

By Chris Frost chris@tricountysentry.com Oxnard-- The Ventura County District Five Board of Supervisors forum continues with Alex Rey Rivera asking Mayor Pro Tem and candidate Carmen Ramirez if she has any outside the box homeless solutions.

H

E also wanted to know if she learned anything from the “tense situations” at Plaza Park and Halaco?

Ramirez and Mayor Tim Flynn are locked in a struggle that could change the county’s voting direction as they compete for the District Five seat. Both candidates, for example, share radical differences of opinion on oil.

Ramirez said homeless people are responsible for half of Oxnard’s police calls, and the county needs a balanced approach.

“People aren’t well, they have no place to go, some use drugs and hurt other people, but many homeless people got priced out of their rental,” she said. “They were priced out of the room they were renting, lost their job, and are living in a car.

We have to have compassion for them. One size doesn’t fit all.”

Ventura County has enough homeless students to fill a high school, she said, which is a tragedy.

“That’s a problem for us,” she said. “They’re not going to be growing up to be productive citizens if they can’t get an education. Out of the box, yes, it’s been difficult.

Nobody seems to want homeless services, except Mr. Tehran in the Fremont neighborhood. I’m not saying you wanted it, but you found there weren’t problems there, and I appreciated that. We have to take steps to house people, and then, we’ll see fewer problems.”

She pointed out that homelessness isn’t solely an Oxnard problem.

“The county has been doing a good job,” Ramirez said. “I’m on the continuum of care, there’s state and federal money, and we need that, so we don’t use our general fund money to provide services to the homeless.

Flynn said one thing that

Oxnard Mayor Tim Flynn

affected him was the inaction of the Oxnard City Council for years on the homeless.

“The thought was if we go down this path, it’s a slippery slope, and it will consume more of the limited resources the city has,” he said. “The Halaco situation made it apparent to me, and the majority of my colleagues that us not doing anything about the homeless situation was costing the city more than doing something about it.

That’s where the opportunity cost switched in the city policymaking.”

He acknowledged that Oxnard is a little bit behind.

“There are no easy solutions,” he said. “Beyond mental health, how about talking about upward social mobility, higher-paying jobs, or just a job for those who are homeless.

Mental health will be my number one priority, and my second priority will be job training and upward social mobility for the homeless.”

Dave Ebbitt asked the candidates what they would do to increase physical and mental healthcare for Ventura County residents?

Flynn said he’s been talking about the Assist Program, which is based on Rachel’s law, which comes from a 2001 California State Legislature public law and allows counties to voluntarily opt-in to service programs for people who resist mental health opportunities.

“Now it’s expanded to eight different categories of people, starting with family members that can request the court to order treatment,” he said. “That’s one of the problems with chronic homelessness in particular serviceresistant individuals. We can probably safely say that a good portion of those individuals who are chronically homeless suffer

Oxnard Mayor Pro Tem Carmen Ramirez

from mental illness, drug, and alcohol addiction, and physical disabilities. I want to put an end to that. It’s chronic homelessness at the core of this problem.”

Ramirez said she went to a wellness center in Thousand Oaks, and there were therapists that spoke Spanish five days a week, and at the Centerpoint Mall, there were therapists on-hand twice a week.

“In Oxnard, there has been a lack of Spanish-speaking therapists,” she said. “I’ve known of people who have worked for the county who are Spanish-speaking that have been poached away because they were offered better compensation.

We need to have a behavioral health workforce that can relate to our community. There are a lot of Spanish speakers who are not literate and don’t have computers.

We need people who can serve people with a need and not find somebody who speaks English and needs mental health. It’s a critical problem, especially now, during the pandemic. People are depressed at every level. You have to deal with it.”

Diana Velzy asked how high on the list climate change is and wanted to know how Flynn and Ramirez would address the problem?

Ramirez said she’s been addressing climate change since before she got elected to the Oxnard City Council.

“We are in a crisis,” she said.

“Look around, read the newspaper, and smell the air. It’s not a distant thing. The climate crisis is here. I’m endorsed by Tom Steyer, who is an advisor to Governor Newsom on business recovery. His main focus is getting people into renewable energy jobs, so we can do our part in California and in the City of Oxnard and our county to address

(Courtesy photo)

climate change with healthier solutions like renewable energy and cleaning up the solution that’s already there.”

She cited the Thomas and Woolsey fires that have devasted Ventura County.

“There are more coming,” Ramirez said. “We have to have our disaster preparedness plans; we have to have our firefighters up to speed. They’re stretched thin right now. One of our firefighters were hurt in the San Bernadino fire. We have to beef up those people and protect the homes and businesses in harm’s way. The only thing that will help is trying to mitigate all that climate change.”

Flynn said that jobs and higherpaying jobs are more important than climate change to the people of Oxnard.

“When you’re in an aircraft, and that aircraft is decompressed, and you lose oxygen, it says that the adult puts the mask over their face first, then you affix the mask over the child,” he said. “That oxygen is our jobs in the City of Oxnard. How can the residents of Oxnard begin to make a transition in this economy of acknowledging that we do have a climate crisis when they can barely feed themselves? Climate change is the last thing on their mind. What’s first on their mind is money and jobs. Once you have that oxygen and can breathe, then we can focus on climate change, and yes, it can be a priority. Jobs are a number one priority, and then at the same time, get around to climate change and act.”

Manuel Herrera said some people in Oxnard blame Flynn and Ramirez for the fiscal problems the city face. Those people maintain that if they can’t solve the fiscal and

structural problems as mayor and council member, why do they think they should be the supervisor?

Flynn said he and Ramirez, along with the other council members, equally share the responsibility of restoring the integrity, honesty, and transparency of the Oxnard City Government.

“You can’t have decades and decades of mismanagement, misappropriation of funds at the highest levels, illegal and unlawful behavior, and in a couple of years; why haven’t you solved Oxnard’s financial problems,” he said. “That is absolutely absurd. It is ludicrous for anyone to suggest that. I take pride in the fact that honesty has been brought back to the Oxnard government, and right now, it is transparent.

People may disagree about the priorities, he said, but they can’t disagree that honesty, integrity, and transparency has been restored to Oxnard’s finances.

“Two-thirds of all the revenue we get comes from property taxes and sales taxes,” Flynn said. “When you have three or four families living in one home, you don’t have enough property tax revenue. When those same families don’t have disposable income, you don’t have sales tax revenue. We have a revenue issue, it needs to be addressed, and upward social mobility is the key.”

Ramirez said it was a council decision to do what it needed to do to get its finances in order, and one thing they did was increase the wastewater rate.

“We all know what the consequences were,” she said. “Four of us, including the mayor and I, were recalled. We survived because we did the right thing. By doing the right thing, we increased the credit rating of our city. It means, ultimately, if we have to borrow money, and we probably will, to fix things like the sea walls and other essential services in the city, it’s going to cost the residents less.

We also did something they said couldn’t be done. We took back our recycling center because it was being run by a vendor who was gouging the residents of the city.

That first year, we saved the city $2 million. We have an audit now that has no material deficits. It takes a long time to fix these things. Our revenue is shrinking, or else we’ll lose more essential services.”

This story will continue on Oct. 23.

Starr compares city finances to the City of Bell

By Chris Frost chris@tricountysentry.com

because it won’t reach the light of day. You need this because it is going to create an important check and balance.”

Herrera responded and said Starr is not creating a check and balance but is changing the power.

“This is a segregation of duties,” Starr said. “Right now, the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) supervises the finance department, but the city manager hires them. You don’t want one person with control over everything. If you have all your eggs in one basket, you’re going to have a problem. You need to split up the basket. Right now, the city manager is going to provide whatever information that is going to make him look best to the council. It’s human nature. I don’t blame the city manager for doing that; it’s the way they’re going to operate. These are human beings. You need other human beings with similar power to create a check and balance.”

Herrera asked if any other cities follow the same model.

“No other government is designed this way,” Starr said. “With the exception of Bell, no other city has had such hideous audit findings, as the City of Oxnard has had in recent years. What other cities are doing hasn’t worked well for us, so we need to do something different.”

Under State law, Starr said the starting premise is that cities elect the treasurer, and the treasurer, not the CFO, is responsible for producing the monthly report.

“This is not an idea we invented,”

Oxnard-- The ballot initiative forum story continues with Manuel Herrera asking what happens if the two finance positions get combined into one.

H

ERRERA asked if that gives too much power to one person.

Moving Oxnard Forward Leader Aaron Starr said the measure provides a check and balance system against Oxnard City Manager Alex Nguyen.

“Today, the city manager controls everything,” he said.

“What you want is somebody else who is answerable to the voters.

The city manager controls all the information flow. He’ll claim the city council can fire him at any time.

If they don’t get the information to know what is wrong, he’ll never be exposed, and he won’t get fired.”

Additionally, Starr said the people who work for the city won’t tell the council what’s wrong, because they’ll get fired.

“When you’ve got an independently elected person, like the city treasurer, who is given the authority to have the internal audits, the internal system of controls, and all the safeguards, you have the opportunity to expose corruption,” he said. “Today, you won’t find corruption at city hall

he said. “This is the default under state law. What happened is the city councils up and down the state has wrestled away that power. This is the default. It gives the treasurer more duties so that he can provide more oversight.”

Given the city’s current financial condition, Herrera said Oxnard would be the guinea pig, and that’s scary.

“Some people might see this as a huge gamble at the worst time,” he said.

Starr asked if Herrera has seen the finance department for the last six to seven years.

“It’s not exactly working out for us,” he said. “There is always a first somewhere. The bottom line is what we have works horribly, and it has worked horribly for years. The city manager wants to tell you that we don’t have any new findings, but what he doesn’t want to tell you is that we still have existing findings. They haven’t been cleaned up yet.”

Forum host Gabriel Tehran asked a submitted question and asked if there is any proof of a problem at city hall and wanted to know if Measure L is a solution in search of a problem?

“We had a District Attorney’s report a while back that said there is lots of corruption at city hall,” Starr said.

Tehran interrupted Starr and asked when the District Attorney’s report happened.

“I think it was in the 2012 range,” Starr said.

Tehran clarified and asked if there is an existing problem

now.

“You don’t have a mechanism to discover it,” Starr said. “You don’t design systems where there are no checks and balances. When there are no checks and balances, you’ll never discover the corruption. It will be all under the table. You want a system with internal controls that work, where you have checks and balances, and segregation of duties.

Otherwise, people being who they are, and people are not angels, you need to credit a system where some people are not honest.”

Starr said many people question how well the city gets run.

“There are no published metrics on how well the departments are doing,” he said. “We’re going to provide a lot of transparency.

You can’t look at every invoice online today. What is so scary about transparency? We want transparency.”

Starr introduced Measure M, the Oxnard Open Meetings Act, and said that’s about having meetings at reasonable times with more information being made public in advance, along with expanded opportunities for public comment.

The council used to have nighttime only meetings, but that changed to daytime meetings in Jan. 2019.

“They created a committee system, where on alternate Tuesdays, they have meetings starting at 9 a.m. through the entire day,” he said. “Today, we have oral staff meetings that are made, and sometimes they blindside the public with new information. There is information that is not always available in the written reports that are presented when the oral staff presentation is made.”

Starr said, sometimes, the staff presentation takes a long time, and some people want to go home, have dinner and take care of their kids.

“It reduces public participation,” he said. “The mayor can reduce public comment time down to a minute per person. That’s at his discretion. The meetings are poorly run and inefficient. We’ve seen instances where the mayor prohibited debate among council members. I remember one instance where Bert Perello tried to make a motion and was shouted down. This is not the way to run a meeting.”

Starr said meetings should start after 5 p.m. on weekdays and after 9 a.m. on weekends if needed.

“There’s going to be exception’s Starr said. “If you’re an advisory committee, like a CAG, they are not subject to this rule. If there is an emergency meeting of the

council, they don’t have to meet at 5 p.m. If there is a closed session, meetings conducted outside of Oxnard, or some extenuating set of circumstances where four-fifths of the council says we can’t meet at this time, they can do that.”

Starr suggested the city pre-record staff presentations and are made available in advance.

“We propose that they are published on the website and available at city hall if they don’t have internet access,” he said. “The public will be informed sooner, and it gives them more time to research, formulate questions, not just for the public, but the council as well. It leaves more time for public comment because, at the council meeting, the staff isn’t reenacting the presentation.

They’re there to answer questions.”

Starr said this means more meaningful time for council deliberations.

“Measure M expands the opportunity to speak,” he said.

“Instead of having one minute to speak, you’ll have three minutes to speak on each subject on the agenda.

It also gives you, as a member of the public, the right to speak on a subject that was considered earlier by a council committee. Right now, under the Brown Act, if a council committee has a hearing on a subject, they are not legally obligated to give you any time to speak about it when it comes to the full council.”

The ordinance also allows the public the same access to visual aids the council does.

“That way, you can do a PowerPoint presentation at the meeting or present video or pictures,” he said.

The Measure follows Roberts Rules of Order, which was the prescribed rules of order until Nov. 2019.

“I don’t know how many decades that was the policy,” he said. “They didn’t know how to use it, but it has always been our policy. Roberts Rules is the most widely used meeting rules in the United States. It’s been around for 144 years. It protects the rights of the minority during a meeting debate. The city mayor will not be able to shout somebody down, and each member of the council has an equal right to speak. When used correctly, this facilitates efficient meetings.”

Council members will need to be trained on Robert’s Rules by a certified professional.

“This does not dismantle council meetings; it only requires that they be in the evenings,” Starr said.

This story will continue on Oct. 23.

TRI-COUNTY SENTRY, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 16, 2020

President Trump continued from page 1

more years. Dozens of cars honked and cheered in support of the event, and the group seemed undaunted by other motorists who drove by screaming obscenities.

Betsy “Ross” Jones pulled the rally together and said when Black Lives Matter got started, she couldn’t do anything because she was bedridden.

“I had fallen, hurt my back badly, and needed surgery,” she said. “I sat in my bed thinking what can I do, and I started this Facebook group, Patriots of Ventura County, and it grew so fast.”

The Patriots of Ventura County are a group of people who love to get together because they all think the same way.

“It’s nice to be around people who are like-minded,” she said.

“When we’re here, and at a rally, we can be ourselves and talk openly about the way we feel about what’s going on in our community. You can’t do that on social media.”

Jones ends up in Facebook jail all the time.

“Just for posting facts,” she said.

“It’s so limited that you can’t say how you feel, so how does Facebook represent you?”

Her problem with Joe Biden is simple, she’s conservative, and he’s liberal.

“Joe Biden needs to retire,” Jones said. “He’s been in office for too long. He’s been there for almost 50 years, and he’s gotten nothing done, and he’s a racist. Aside from that, I don’t think he’s all there mentally.”

During the Vice Presidential debate, Jones said Kamala Harris lied about fracking and refused to answer questions about the green new deal and packing the Supreme Court.

“What’s the point in having a debate if they won’t answer those questions,” Jones said. “Those are the three we want the answers to.”

She didn’t have her mask.

“My daughter has cancer, so I was really afraid about her getting the virus,” she said. “She got it, and it was nothing. She had the sniffles

and felt cruddy for a couple of days.

All the experts said if she got it, she would die. She’s had heart failure, organ failure, and she was fine. All the people who had cancer isn’t going to die from Covid-19. They want you to think that because that’s what get’s people all riled up.”

She’s planning a couple of more rallies before the election.

“We have a caravan every Sunday, as well,” she said. “There are more cars in the caravan then there are people here now. The caravan gets pretty big.”

Jones also started the group because she has black grandchildren.

“I do not like the way the blacks portray them,” she said. “They try to make it look being black is a handicap. I don’t want my grandkids ever to hear that. It’s not true.”

She loves her country.

“I was raised in Iowa, and back there, it seems like everybody is more patriotic,” she said.

“Everybody is patriotic back there.”

Jones was enjoying her first rally after her surgery, but she noted some people helped her make the event happen.

“I saw Mike Stiles waving his flag and said he’s a patriot who loves his country,” she said. “I had no idea how amazing he was and his history of doing promotional rallies like this. He’s a boxer, and it exploded when I had him.”

She also commended Ashlea Aguilar for all her help.

“We have all these free yard signs, and they are beautiful,” Jones said. “We’re proud.”

Ventura City Council District 7 Libertarian Candidate Heather May said in her district, 50 percent of the voters are Democrat, 25 percent are Republican, and 25 percent have no party affiliation.

“Ss you can see today, it’s not a problem, and we’re having a hell of a time,” she said. “I’m like President Trump, and I am a none of the above candidate. If you watch any of the forums and hear what the other people say, I’m talking about common sense policies. There is a

huge homeless crisis, and nobody is doing anything about it. If you go to the city council meetings specifically for the homeless, and you hear their ideas, policies, and what they’re trying to do. They say it takes 600 interactions with a homeless person.

Most people are dead by interaction 600. It could be a million, but it’s not going to change a thing. We don’t need to do anything differently. We need to start enforcing our laws. first things first.”

Kennedy was proud to see all the love and support for the United States at the rally and said right now, with the current times, people are hating America, “It’s so prideful to see so many people out here in Ventura that still love our country,” she said. “I am happy and comfortable.”

She said the big difference between Kennedy and Brownley is that she is here and on the ground.

“I am everywhere,” she said. “I ask people if they know who their congresswoman is, and they don’t know. I’m here, I’m always in the restaurants, I’m spotted, and they know me.”

She pointed out that Brownley is not there, and she doesn’t represent the people because her vote belongs to Nancy Pelosi, and Bownley votes with Pelosi 100 percent of the time.

“I haven’t seen her campaign at all,” Kennedy said. “She just fills in title to this district. The biggest complaint I get is that I call Julia

Brownley’s office, and I don’t get a response. I end up talking to those people.”

Brownley backed out of a debate with Kennedy because Brownley accused Kennedy of not practicing social distancing.

“She was going to be on Zoom, and I opted to be there in person,” Kennedy said. “She canceled it because she said during my fireside chat with Rob McCoy that we didn’t practice with social distancing.

I found several examples of her online without a mask sharing a microphone with other people, and she was not social distancing.”

Kennedy called this election the “literal fight for our country and the children’s future.”

“I have seven-year-old triplets, and I have grandchildren who I want to grow up in an America that I am proud of and the America where I grew up,” she said. “If we don’t fight and adhere to the Constitution, even with the Supreme Court Justice nominee, it’s important to the Constitution.”

Kennedy said the left is upset about that fact.

“We need to live by the Constitution,” she said. “That’s our Bible.”

Kennedy said bringing jobs to CA District 26, and not being Pelosi’s puppet, is the biggest priority.

“I want to bring SpaceX expansion out here to Ventura

County,” Kennedy said. “We have room at the base; we’re close to Vandenberg, so I think this is a prime opportunity for SpaceX to expand. SpaceX was going to leave during the shutdown and go to Texas when Governor Newsome forced them to close. Then he gave in. We have a better tax base than Los Angeles County.”

Cassidy Coultas came out dressed in true Red, White, and Blue attire and wanted to show how much she loves the country and President Trump.

She doesn’t trust Joe Biden.

“I think he’s going to sell us to China,” Coultas said.

She loves how Trump always puts the country first.

“He’s the first president not to take a paycheck, just to support our country,” Coultas said. “He’s getting more done than Obama did when he was in office.”

Kennedy Dutra loves Donald Trump and wanted to show her support.

“He loves this country for what it is and loves the people, no matter what,” Dutra said. “I think he’s the best option for America.”

She, too, doesn’t like Biden.

“He’s a pedophile and doesn’t like Americans,” she said. “He isn’t fit to run America, and he never was.”

Emcee Scott Keighley feels strongly about hosting the rally.

“I think Trump has done a great job and delivered on his promises,” Keighley said. “He’s stood up to the dictators and world leaders and got us fair deals. He’s fighting for the American people.”

He called Biden a career politician who has done nothing.

“All he does is promise,” Keighley said. “He’ll say one thing one day and another thing another day.”

He is a general contractor, and it means a lot to him to step out of his comfort zone.

“I feel strongly about this group and what we represent,” he said.

That person does not deserve to be elected and is, at best, unethical.

What makes it worse is that this candidate will shake your hand, look you straight in the eye, and pontificate integrity while at the same time, will look at rules and say that doesn’t apply to me. Isn’t that just who you want?

I’m sure you’d like to know who pulled this chicanery, but I am going to leave that up to the public for once. I talked about the tax increase on the ballot a couple of weeks ago and called out the whole

city for being unengaged when they needed to be engaged. If people did their job and held their elected officials accountable, it might not have happened.

So, when you’re out there meeting these candidates, ask them, “Did you use trickery to bypass the Fair Political Practices Commission and get an unfair ad deal at the Tri County Sentry?

One candidate will look you in the face and lie because they couldn’t give a frog’s fat a** about you. If that candidate gets elected,

then you get what you deserve.

I will continue to do what I always do and ask the questions that piss off candidates because they’d prefer that you’re left in the dark.

Now I’ve had candidates look at me and say, no problem, I won’t talk to you. They tried that in Compton, so I published the questions and invited the readers to call, make public comments at meetings, and hold them accountable in every way possible.

Needless to say, the “freeze me

out” strategy did not work well for those candidates. In fact, a couple of them called me the devil. I’ll ask all the tough questions to the candidates for our readers, but I always give fair, honest, and unbiased answers. Regardless of what the candidate thinks, the public has the right to know.

We’ll see who has the cajones to interview with me, the guy who follows the Fair Political Practices Commission rules. My email is at the top of this editorial. Drop me a line. I’m waiting......

Frosted Thoughts continued from page 2

to each other.

Just an FYI, in case you are wondering, I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Communications from the University of Northern Colorado. Do you get it? I have a degree in communications!!!

This is a person who wants to set policy, be a budget watchdog, and act in the people’s best interest. That sounds like a noble idea, except that candidate looked at the Fair Political Practices Commission rules and said how can I get around this and get my way.

Finance & Governance offers input about the five-year update process

By Chris Frost chris@tricountysentry.com Oxnard-- The Finance & Governance Committee, Oct 13, offered input about the strategic priorities fiveyear update process.

T

HE item supports the city’s organizational effectiveness strategy.

The purpose of the organizational effectiveness strategy is to strengthen and stabilize the organizational foundation in Finance, Information Technology, Human Resources and improve workforce quality while increasing public transparency.

Deputy City Manager Shiri Klima presented the item to the committee and said in Oct 2015, the city council and senior leadership team held a priority setting public workshop.

At that time, the council determined five strategic priority areas: organizational effectiveness, economic development, quality of life, infrastructure, and natural resources. The council also determined goals and objectives under each area.

“It is good practice to update these priorities every five years,” she said. “The management wanted to bring this to the council this winter. We’re not asking for feedback on the actual priorities

right now. That’s for the winter discussion.

What we’re doing is preparing and asking you about the process and if you are comfortable with this process. Then we can prepare accordingly.”

The city will have a public outreach, and all five committees will consider priorities in Jan. “In Feb, we’d like to have a special meeting of the city council,” she said. “We’d like to do it at a special meeting because this is a lengthier conversation and topic that requires some time. We’d have a special meeting in Feb to discuss these priorities, do a lot of public outreach, and get public input.

Finally, in March, we’ll have the council adopt the priorities that we determined in Feb at a regular meeting.”

With Covid-19 still in the community, Klima said the city would make a concerted effort to have the public outreach be through digital and other methods. Not in person.

“What we would like from you today is to offer feedback on this

ballot. The measure passed by 72 percent of the vote.

Starr then launched a recall campaign against councilmembers Bert Perello, and Oscar Madrigal, against whom Starr is currently running for the District 3 council seat. Mayor Pro Tem Carmen Ramirez and Mayor Tim Flynn were also targeted.

The recall effort failed.

The City of Oxnard filed suit challenging the validity of Measure M and asked the trial court to issue an injunction, arguing that the rate decrease would downgrade the city’s BBB credit rating. This downgrade, the city argued, could have two adverse consequences.

First, a letter of credit provided by Union Bank was set to expire and would not be renewed. The City would immediately owe $16.75 million. Second, an interest rate swap with the Royal Bank of Canada would expire, immediately costing the City $3.7 million.

process,” she said. “Not on the specific priorities you’d like us to focus on.”

During committee comments, Member Vianey Lopez asked what that would look like and if it would happen through public meetings and social media.

“Council Member, that’s a question, and I pose that back to you to let us know what type of outreach you’d like us to do,” Klima said. “We are definitely going to be on the committees, and we can

post some things onto social media if you’d like.”

Lopez said she’d like the city to receive input through a survey or online submission.

“I’d like to have a little bit of this homework done ahead of having these discussions,” she said.

C o m m i t t e e Member Bert Perello said the public outreach piece of the input poses some interesting challenges.

“There has to be some method because of this virus,” he said. “The Zoom, as we are finding with a gentleman, we couldn’t get in touch with him. Sometimes, people are not able to work this.

I hope that social media will be used. I more so hope that with the 50 neighborhood councils we use, we’ll reach out to each and every one of those neighborhood councils. I am aware that some neighborhood council leadership will not do Zoom meetings. I am assuming that there are some members on those neighborhood council boards that would be willing to step up and conduct a Zoom meeting with their

neighborhood and get more of a direct input about what their concerns are. One thing with social media is, are these inputs coming from residents within the City of Oxnard? I would like very much to get input from residents in the City of Oxnard. Sometimes, social media can be hijacked for various purposes. The issue about language barriers, electronic barriers are the concerns that I have with this. I do believe we need to have something done. In the past, it has been a matter of putting stickers on various things, and you bring in people with a strong interest in one specific area and oversaturate a message of importance when it may not have been the fairest way of doing it.”

Chairman Tim Flynn noted that sometimes there is a complete disconnect between the city council, the public, and the staff over the strategic priorities.

“It’s almost like you go through a process like this, and it’s talked about in the agenda,” he said. “On all agenda items, it talks about how a specific agenda item is meeting the strategic priorities of the council. The council almost never revisits these priorities.

Because the priorities are often broad, what this council needs to get its hands around is to determine what the priorities are.

The spending should reflect the priorities.”

The Court granted the city’s request, issuing an injunction preventing the measure from going into effect pending a trial.

With the Measure on hold, the City undertook a review of the rate increase by forming a “Utility Ratepayers Advisory Panel” known as URAP. Starr was among those appointed to the panel.

In an updated rate study report commissioned by the city, Carollo Engineers recommended a 5.25 percent rate increase in each fiscal year 2017/2018 through 2021/2022. The City adopted that recommendation, effective July 1, 2017, as Ordinance No. 2917.

This allowed the city to bring in additional revenue even with Measure M sidelined.

After a hearing, the trial court found Measure M to be valid.

In his ruling, Judge Rocky Baio held that an initiative measures should be presumed valid unless there is clear and unmistakable

unconstitutionality. The court went on to find that the city’s argument that it would be unable to meet financial, in particular bond obligations, was “speculative and premature,” notwithstanding the Carollo study.

The city appealed the ruling.

In a 3-0 decision, the Court of Appeal reversed the trial court holding Measure M to be invalid.

Justice Arthur Gilbert penned the unpublished opinion finding that the Measure was governed by a 1941 law, the Revenue Bond Law (Gov. Code Section 54300 et seq.) which mandates that a wastewater’s utility’s revenue “shall be at lease sufficient to pay” interest and principle on bonds, payments required for compliance with the bondholders requirement of reserves, any local agency obligations and costs of maintenance and operation.

It also requires that the utility operate keep equipment operating

and in good repair. Testimony in the trial showed that the treatment plan hasn’t been updated since the 1970’s and critical components of the wastewater treatment plan regularly fail. Evidence also showed that the plant’s Vietnam era backup generated has repeatedly failed sending sewage into the ocean.

At one point, 219,000 gallons of effluent to spill into the ocean causing the Regional Water Quality Control Board to issue a notice of violation. “[H]ere, the uncontradicted evidence shows that only one reasonable conclusion is possible,” wrote Justice Gilbert. “Measure M violates the Revenue Bond Act of 1941.”

Rejecting Starr’s claim that the city is operating inefficiently, the Court found that “[t]he rates charged under Measure M are insufficient…”

Starr has been ordered to pay costs to the city.

Measure M continued from page 1

in 2016, violated Government Code Section 54300, known as the Revenue Bond Law. The controversy stems from an Ordinance passed by the city council in January of 2016, which raised wastewater utility rates by 35 percent, with annual adjustments going forward. The increase was based on a city commissioned study by Carollo Engineers, which found that the current rates were insufficient to meet obligations of four outstanding bonds. The bonds, which are secured by utility rates, require the city maintain the wastewater system and fix utility rates which are sufficient to yield revenue at least equal to the debt service plus an additional 25 percent reserve.

In response, Oxnard resident Aaron Starr gathered signatures to place Measure M, which called for the return of rate structure that existed prior to the adoption of the ordinance, on the November 2016

TRI-COUNTY SENTRY, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 16, 2020

Suspect arrested for criminal threats and felony evading Oxnard-- On Oct. 13, at approximately 11 a.m., Oxnard Police Officers responded to the 5000-block of San Juan Avenue about a person making threats to harm family members and himself.

O

FFICERS arrived on scene and learned that Rodolfo Martinez, a 27-year old Oxnard resident, had threatened to shoot the mother of his child and mentioned that he possessed a firearm. Martinez fled the scene in a vehicle before police officers arrived.

The officers searched the area and were able to locate Martinez in a parking lot in North Oxnard.

When officers attempted to contact Martinez, he fled in his vehicle. The officers, with assistance from a Ventura County Sheriff ’s Department helicopter unit, pursued Martinez southbound on the 101 Freeway.

Throughout the pursuit, Crisis Negotiators with the Oxnard Police Department and personnel with Ventura County Mental Health were in phone

contact with Martinez. They encouraged him to give himself up to the police.

Once in the City of Thousand Oaks, Martinez entered a shopping center parking lot, stopped the vehicle, and refused to exit the vehicle. At this point, the Ventura County Sheriff ’s Department was asked to assist with the incident.

Martinez then drove from the parking lot and headed in a

northbound direction towards Oxnard. The Ventura County Sheriff ’s Department pursued Martinez and used a vehicle intervention technique to stop his vehicle and safely bring the incident to a conclusion. Inside the vehicle, officers located parts to an assault weapon.

Officers arrested Martinez for making criminal threats and felony evading.

city needs a good leader,” he said.

“As your leader, I am going to bring Oxnard more businesses, a better lifestyle, support for all our youth, the youth is extremely important, and bring jobs.”

He also plans to bring more senior programs to the city.

“Reduce crime rates, increase budget services and continue to work on the environment for the health and well-being of the community,” he said. “I’m terming out from my position at the County of Ventura, but I am motivated to continue to help our city become much more than what it is. Oxnard needs my help. The budget needs a lot of help, and we need a leader who is going to solve city budgets.

We need a leader who is going to bring businesses to downtown, whether it is small businesses, large businesses, and jobs. Without jobs, you don’t have a base. How can somebody eat at a restaurant in Oxnard without a job? That’s important.”

Zaragoza thinks helping the homeless is essential.

“The Board of Supervisors

shared $1.6 million to help the City of Ventura and Oxnard to provide housing, behavioral health, and social support to help unhoused individuals and get them off the streets,” he said. “With our youth, we need to work with the Boys and Girls Club. When I was in Oxnard, we had the Oxnard Youth Employment Service Program.

I trained and mentored many individuals who became public employees.”

He advocates proper housing, healthcare workshops, and activities to help the seniors.

“Our veterans are extremely important,” Zaragoza said. “My whole family is veterans, and I want to make sure they get the housing and support they need.”

He also wants to keep the city clean and get the trash off the medians and gateways.

“Basic cleanliness is important,” he said. “I am your leader, your mayor, and I have devoted my whole life to the beautification of Oxnard and the County of Ventura. I love my city. Vote for John Zaragoza.”

Frank also thanked the INCO

and noted that it benefits the public.

“It’s difficult campaigning in the age of Covid-19, so thank you for giving me access,” she said.

Frank noted that everyone talked about their background and how they got to where they are now.

“My mother is a firstgeneration American,” she said.

“Her parents were from Ukraine.

My grandmother was from Transylvania, and my grandfather was from Ukraine.”

When they arrived in the United States, they spoke no English.

“My grandfather was a baker, and my grandmother stayed home and had seven daughters,” she said.

“My mother and her sisters, none of them went to college. My mother came to Hollywood from Boston, got married, and had three little girls. I was the oldest.”

Frank’s mother divorced in 1959, and Deirdre was six.

“Do you know what it was like being a kid of a divorced mother in 1959,” she asked. “There was no child support then. It was difficult.

She worked two or three jobs, and I never saw her.”

Despite the trouble, Frank said the kids went to college.

“My sister has a Ph.D. in education, and my youngest sister graduated from UCLA and has an undergraduate degree in fine arts,” she said. “I became a lawyer. We were overachievers, all of us. When we do something, we do it.”

She chose to move to Oxnard; she loves the city and plans to stay in the city.

“I protect the beach, I protect Fisherman’s Wharf, and I am a defender of Ormond Beach from the minute I heard about it,” she said. “I am pleased our city manager has thought outside the box to get the Ormond Beach power plant out of here. In two years, we’ll have a trust fund with $25 million to get that off our beach. Talk about enhancing the opportunities for South Oxnard. I want to be part of that.”

She doesn’t have relatives who hail from the city.

“I live here,” she said. “I count, you count, vote for me, and let me be your voice, as abrasive as I might be.”

Mayoral candidates continued from page 1

facts. This time is a limited to have a platform, but please, I would request a longer opportunity to be able to sit with people, and I’ve been waiting for this time.

Everybody wants to hear what Richard has to say because you’ve been hearing my marketing stance.

I don’t have the money that John Zaragoza has, and I don’t have the money Deirdre Frank has. I’m on unemployment and identify with people in the struggle. The bible says in Proverbs 357 to trust in the Lord with all your heart. Lean not on your own understanding, acknowledge him in all your ways, and he shall direct your path. I trust God above everything else.

I wouldn’t have stepped into this position if I didn’t feel that God was behind me. Not everyone who wins American Idol becomes the most famous. Sometimes it’s the second or the third runner up.”

Zaragoza thanked the INCO for the forum and said he decided to run for mayor because he cares for and loves Oxnard.

“I’ve raised my family here, I believe in the city, and I believe the

SENIORS 805 Coronavirus vs the flu: How to tell the difference

Dear Savvy Senior, Can you explain the differences between the coronavirus and seasonal flu? I’m 70-years-old, and usually get a standard flu shot, but would like to find out what else I can do to protect myself this winter.

Worried Senior Dear Worried, Great question! Because of the dual danger of Influenza (flu) and COVID-19, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently warned that this fall and winter could be the worst ever for public health. Understanding this, knowing the differences and

similarities between the viruses, and knowing what you can do to protect yourself is the best way to stay healthy and safe through this difficult time.

Flu vs COVID Because many of the symptoms of flu and COVID-19 are similar, it may be hard to tell the difference between them based on symptoms alone, so testing may be needed to help confirm a diagnosis. With that said, here are some similarities and differences you should know.

For starters, seasonal flu symptoms come on pretty quickly, whereas COVID-19 develops

gradually over a period of a few days and then either fades out or gets worse. Common shared symptoms include fever, sore throat, muscle aches, cough, headache, fatigue and even chest pain. Pinkeye and a dry cough are associated with COVID-19, while it’s now thought that a fever is more likely with the flu, as are diarrhea and nausea.

Many people are having their temperatures taken these days before entering public spaces.

But fever occurs in only half of COVID-19 cases. Fever does not rule out COVID-19, but the absence of fever makes flu unlikely.

You’re also unlikely to have a runny or stuffy nose with the flu, but you may with COVID-19.

What sometimes happens within the nose with COVID-19 is loss of smell and, often as a consequence, loss of taste, too.

To learn more about the similarities and differences between flu and COVID-19, visit the CDC website at CDC.gov/flu/ symptoms/flu-vs-covid19.htm.

How to Protect Yourself While there is currently no vaccine available yet to prevent COVID-19, the best way to prevent illness is to avoid being exposed to this virus. So, stay home as much as you can. If you have to go out, wear a mask and keep at least 6 feet away from other people. And every time you come home, wash your hands with warm water and soap for at least 20 seconds.

There’s also evidence that suggests that people who are deficient in vitamin D may be at higher risk of getting COVID-19, than those with sufficient levels.

So, make sure you take in around 800 to 1,000 international units (IUs) of vitamin D from food or supplements daily, and get outside as much as you can.

And to help guard against the flu this year, you should consider getting a flu shot that’s specifically designed for people 65 and older. The “Fluzone High Dose Quadrivalent” or the “FLUAD Quadrivalent” are the two options that provide extra protection beyond what a standard flu shot

offers. You only need one flu shot, and if you haven’t already gotten it, you should do it now because takes up to two weeks to build immunity after you receive it.

Pneumonia Vaccines If you haven’t been vaccinated for pneumonia, you should also consider getting the pneumococcal vaccines. Both flu and COVID-19 can lead to pneumonia, which hospitalizes around 250,000 Americans, and kills around 50,000 people each year. But these numbers could be much higher this year.

The CDC recommends that all seniors, 65 or older, get two vaccinations – Prevnar 13 and Pneumovax 23. Both vaccines, which are administered one year apart, protect against different strains of the bacteria to provide maximum protection.

Medicare Part B covers both flu and pneumonia shots.

To locate a vaccination site that offers any of these shots, visit VaccineFinder.org and type in your location.

SENIORS 805 Please help ensure our children’s future by voting

By Marian Wright Edelman FOUNDER AND PRESIDENT EMERITA “The Peacemaker taught us about the Seven Generations. He said, when you sit in council for the welfare of the people, you must not think of yourself or of your family, not even of your generation. He said, make your decisions on behalf of the seven generations coming, so that they may enjoy what you have today.”

–Oren Lyons, Seneca Faithkeeper, Onondaga Nation On October 16-18, 2020 thousands of congregations across our nation will celebrate the Children’s Defense Fund’s annual multifaith National Observance of Children’s Sabbaths. This year’s theme is Reimagining Our Future: Justice and Joy for All Children. Although we all must maintain physical distance and our celebrations are taking new forms this year we must strive for social and spiritual connection and work for justice for all children with urgency amidst the extraordinary crises of the COVID pandemic, our entrenched poverty and racism

pandemics, the lack of affordable housing, unequal education, too few employment opportunities, and a Cradle-to-Prison Pipeline® that must be replaced with a pipeline to college and gainful employment.

Our collective national trauma around these profound and challenging concerns demands we reimagine a future where justice and protection for all children are at the center of national concern. We must find new ways to work together to eliminate child poverty and decrease the violence so many children face across our nation who have been left behind. And we must replace callous political leadership that puts the desires of the rich and the powerful ahead of the needs of children and people to ensure equal justice and care for all.

CDF’s annual Children’s Sabbath seeks to inspire action and equip people of faith to take immediate and sustained actions for children left behind. In this critical election year the Children’s Sabbath actions focus on voter education and turnout. Although children can’t vote, adults can and

must vote with children’s needs as a top priority. These final weeks of this election have already shown that our nation is more desperate than ever for leaders whose judgment and behavior are worthy of our children.

CDF recently released a series of guides at our Voting Resource Center to help voters make a plan for voting effectively for children.

This presidential election year presents clear choices voters must make up and down the ballot that will make a profound difference in children’s lives. Please vote for candidates at federal, state, and local levels who will:

• Take care of children and families in crisis amid COVID-19 • End racial and economic inequities and promote racial justice in all our policies • End child poverty now and ensure all families the resources required to provide for their children • Ensure all children and families access to affordable housing • Ensure all children access to comprehensive, affordable health and mental health coverage and care • Ensure families access to affordable quality early childhood services and education

• Promote equitable education policies to close the achievement gap between rich and poor • Enable children and families to remain safely at home and out of the child welfare and juvenile justice system • End the Cradle-to-Prison Pipeline® • Protect children from gun violence • End family separation and the detention of immigrant children.

CDF’s Voting Resource Center includes links to help voters ensure they are registered and know how and where to vote in their states to combat disinformation and discouragement and resist widespread voter suppression tactics.

DINING

Rosemary Cauliflower

Cauliflower makes for a great and healthy side for almost any meal. Although I did not always feel that way. Cauliflower was not one on my favorite vegetables growing up.

I

was usually served it steamed and that is about it. It is hard to love simply steamed vegetables, in my opinion, especially when they tend to smell a little bit like flatulence. But alas, not all was lost and I learned to love this little tree look alike as I learned to cook.

This is a great cauliflower recipe for ease, flavor, and texture. Plus, a nice char always looks really beautiful.

Ingredients - 1 head of cauliflower - 1 Tablespoon vegetable oil - 1 Sprig of rosemary, diced To Cook Cut around the stalk to separate the heads. Cut the heads in half top to bottom. Heat a pan on medium, add oil, and lay heads on the pan flat side down. Let cook for 5 minutes untouched. Mix. And cook til soft all the way through. You can push

a fork into the cauliflower to test if its ready. If the fork goes through easily you are done.

EAT! I hope you enjoyed this dish! If you would like to see more recipes and meal ideas follow me on Instagram @connor.cooks or visit my website www.connorcooksfood. com or email me connorcooksfood@ gmail.com.

FREEDOM BOAT CLUB MAKES

brating the Fall back into Boating event by waiving membership fees until Jan. 2021. The regular price is $325 each month for weekday access or $425 a month for unlimited access. There is a $6,000 one-time entry fee.

“If you refer five people, you get your entry fee back,” she said.

“Down the road, if you want to use

The other day I went to Tinker Beach, where the original Tinker Bell was filmed. It’s hidden back there, a nice little cool cave. That was the best. I anchored the boat and swam to shore with my little innertube and explored for a little bit and looked at all the shells.

When I was swimming back to the boat, I saw four leopard sharks swimming in the water. It was cool to see them up close like that.”

Membership is open to anyone 21 years old and older.

“We get all ages,” Jenni said. “It’s diverse, and we get divers, photographers, and people who love sea life.”

If you’re worried about Covid-19, the Freedom Boat Club is the perfect solution.

“I think it’s the best way to social distance,” she said. “You’re not with random people, and you are your own captain. I have strict cleaning and sanitizing protocols in place after each use. It’s not like a charter. You get to choose where you want to go. You can bring your friends, family, and dogs are welcome too. We love dogs.”

Brian Roberton was on the dock and having a good look up

your entry fee for a downpayment on one of your boats, you can do that. For every person you refer, you get a free month.”

She loves seeing people get out on the water, explore the amazing Channel Islands, and then hear their stories.

“I love new places,” she said.

“I love Santa Cruz, the Chinese Harbor, and also Potato Harbor.

close.

“The name, Freedom Boat Club, piqued my interest,” he said.

“I like being able to take a boat out anytime and go out to enjoy a picnic, deep-sea fishing, scuba diving and come back in, walk-off, and not worry about anything. It’s trouble-free.”

Ventura-- So, you’d love to hit the water and enjoy all the glory of the ocean, except for one problem. THE COST!!!

F

IRST, boats can be expensive, docking it at the marina is more costly, and if it breaks down, you’re left with a vessel that goes nowhere.

The people at the Freedom Boat Club offered simple solutions during its Ventura open house Oct 11, which makes boat ownership obsolete.

Once you pay your entry fee and monthly dues, a member gets unlimited access to every boat in Freedom’s fleet of ships at every location. There are over 225 locations worldwide.

The club takes care of the slip fees, maintenance, insurance, service on the boats, all the cleaning, and if something goes wrong, they take care of the problem. Members have one job, enjoy the water.

The club plans to expand in Oxnard and Santa Barbara.

Club Manager Jessi Price said she worked on the docks for many years, has seen people buy big boats, and there’s always something wrong with them.

“They never leave the slip,” she said. “I moved from San Diego to open this location in June. We have three locations there with 65 boats. I worked at a Freedom Boat Club in Florida, and we had over 100 boats.”

The club has five boats in its Ventura fleet, and number six is coming before Oct. 18.

“We have the Defiance Admiral 220, a Striper and the Key West Center Console,” she said. “We also just got a Duffy, which is 100 percent electric. Each boat has GPS, touch screens, sonar, VHF radios, flairs safety gear, and life jackets. “ Members sign up, pay an entry fee, monthly dues, and are ready to go.

“We have a reservation system and an app, so they can reserve the

boat wherever they want,” she said.

Another important feature about membership is unlimited training with a Coast Guard Captain, so no disasters happen at sea.

“I’ve seen it all,” she said. “If you don’t feel comfortable with anchoring or docking, we’ll sit for hours and practice with you. There are four hours of classroom and offshore training. You can split it up, but if you don’t feel comfortable, there is no time limit. It’s all up to the member. We’re here for you guys.”

Jessi needed the ocean and saltwater to make her soul happy, so the Freedom Boat Club is the perfect fit.

“I love everything about the ocean and sharing that experience with everybody,” she said.

She loves the area and said there are amazing adventures to explore

on the water.

“The Channel Islands are amazing,” Jessi said. “They are the American Galapagos. “It blows my mind how many people live here and have never been out there.

I stumbled across the job online back in Saint Augustine, Florida.

It was right before Hurrican Irma, and I decided that I was moving out to California. They had a Freedom there, so I called the owner, and he took me in.”

Her calling in life is customer service.

“I love meeting new people and making them happy,” she said. “I went to school for business, but I don’t like being stuck at the office.

I like being outdoors and on the ocean.”

If someone still wants to fund their own boating adventure and make a purchase, she said you’d better be ready to spend some serious money.

“I know the boat slips here cost $300 a month,” she said. “With the cost of a comparable boat, you’re looking at between $60,000 and $70,000 for the price. Upkeep maintenance is even more.”

The Freedom fleet is new.

“We don’t let our boats get over two years old before we sell them,” she said.

The Freedom Boat Club is cele-

HEALTH Texas cop charged in shooting of Black man offering handshake

By Jamie Stengle DALLAS (AP)—A Black man who was fatally shot by a white police officer in a small East Texas city had offered a handshake to the officer, asking if he was “doing good,” as the officer arrived at a convenience store to check out a report of a fight, according to a court document released Wednesday.

W

OLFE City police Officer Shaun Lucas has been charged with murder in the weekend death of 31-year-old Jonathan Price, whose funeral will be held Saturday at the high school football field in the city of about 1,500 people located about 70 miles (113 kilometers) northeast of Dallas.

According to the affidavit, written by a Texas Ranger, the entire interaction between the two on Oct. 3 was captured on a body camera. That footage has not been released.

The affidavit said that when Lucas arrived at the convenience store because of a “possible fight” he was greeted by Price, who

asked the officer “you doing good” several times and extended his hand in a handshake gesture. Price apologized for broken glass on the ground, telling the officer someone had tried “to wrap me up.”

The affidavit says Lucas thought Price was intoxicated and tried to detain him. Price said “I can’t be detained” as Lucas grabbed at his arm and used verbal commands.

When Lucas produced a stun gun, Price began to walk away.

After Lucas deployed the stun gun, which wasn’t fully effective, Price walked toward him and appeared to reach out to grab the end of the stun gun, the affidavit said. The affidavit said that Lucas then fired four times, striking Price in the upper torso. Price was later pronounced dead at a hospital.

In a statement Monday announcing that Lucas had been charged, the Texas Rangers said that Price “resisted in a nonthreatening posture and began walking away,” and that the officer’s actions weren’t “reasonable.”

Lucas remained jailed Wednesday on $1 million bond.

Lucas’ attorney, John Snider, has said that the officer “only discharged his weapon in accordance with Texas law when he was confronted with an aggressive assailant who was attempting to take his” stun gun.

Virus imperils AA cofounder’s birthplace, a virtual shrine

By Wilson Ring

Lee Merritt, a Dallas attorney representing Price’s family, has said on Facebook that he was told Price raised his hands and tried to explain what was going on when the officer arrived. Merritt wrote that after the stun gun was deployed Price’s “body convulsed from the electrical current, they `perceived a threat’ and shot him to death.’“ Police haven’t released any details about the reported fight that brought Lucas to the convenience store, but Price’s family and friends said the one-time college football player had intervened in a

domestic disturbance.

His family and friends said Price, a Wolfe City employee, was well-known in the community.

Price, who had played football for Hardin-Simmons University in Abilene, was a personal trainer and body builder with dreams of starting his own fitness center.

Tony Coleman, an Oklahoma City attorney who grew up in Wolfe City, said the community always comes together when someone dies but that the death of Price—known for his bright smile and enthusiasm for fitness—“has touched the community in a way that that it’s never been touched before.”

EAST DORSET, Vt. (AP)— The shrinelike birthplace of one of the two Vermont natives who founded Alcoholics Anonymous is in danger of closing, another victim of the restrictions made necessary by the coronavirus pandemic.

The shutdown from March until midsummer meant no people could stay in rooms in the hotel where AA cofounder Bill Wilson, who according to the organization’s lore, was “born behind the bar” in 1895.

“The house is a symbol of hope. It’s a symbol of humanity. It’s a symbol of our commonality, and it’s a place to feel it, touch it, smell it, experience it,” said Dr. Andrea Barthwell, a former official in the Office of National Drug Control Policy who visited Wilson House in 2003 while promoting an effort of the George W. Bush administration to help people fight addiction.

As someone in recovery, Barthwell said, walking the halls of the Wilson House had a profound impact.

“It would be an incredible loss to have that go down because of COVID,” she said. “COVID has destroyed enough.”

The pandemic shutdown meant recovery groups couldn’t rent the East Dorset hotel for seminars, and the local Alcoholics Anonymous groups that frequently attracted people from nearby states or even farther couldn’t use the meeting rooms.

MOVIE REVIEW

“The Secret: Dare to Dream”

By Bob Garver

drive home the point that this philosophy supposedly works.

There are two additional twists to the movie, both involving the mysterious Bray. The first is that he has a connection to Miranda’s late husband. He’s actually in town to tell Miranda about it, but the right opportunity never presents itself (one time he allows himself to be interrupted by a microwave timer going off; try a little harder, buddy) and later there’s a fallout with her saying “Why didn’t you tell me?” and him saying “I tried…” The other involves Miranda’s romantic life. The movie thankfully avoids the temptation to make a certain character an outright jerk, but then falls into a pit of allowing something else to be way too convenient to avoid complexity.

Watching “The Secret: Dare to Dream,” I bounced between whether to rate it a C- or a D. It’s too cheesy and wedded to its questionable philosophy for anything higher, but too light to really be enraging. I eventually landed on a D because the movie just wouldn’t let the pony storyline go. But then I halfway-sarcastically tried getting The Secret to work by thinking positively about a long-overdue tax refund from the IRS. Lo and behold, the next time I checked my refund status, I was told that after five months, it had finally been approved. Coincidence or not, I have to reward the movie for that. Next up, I want major theatrical releases to return full time so I can see better movies than this.

“The Secret: Dare to Dream” has lingered in prime real estate at the top of my On Demand system’s Movies section for over two months now.

Other movies have come and gone, but apparently this one remains popular. I know the book “The Secret” was popular about ten years ago, but I thought its heyday was long over. I guess the people behind this movie can be grateful that this happens to be an era where the competition is staggeringly

I

T should come as no surprise that I’m not a believer in the philosophy of “The Secret,” which (and I know I’m oversimplifying) is that positive thinking yields positive results.

I suppose it can be effective in that can’t hurt to not sabotage oneself with negativity. But I also know it’s possible to get in over one’s head with a positive attitude, so somewhere in the middle (otherwise known as “realistic”) is probably healthiest. After all, life can’t be that easy, can it? According to this movie, maybe it can be.

Katie Holmes stars as Miranda, a widowed mother of three in hurricane-prone Louisiana. Apart from the obvious, nothing is going her way. She’s buried under a mountain of debt, her job is about to be greatly affected by a storm, her house is falling apart, one of her daughters’ Sweet Sixteen party is getting upstaged, another daughter won’t stop nagging her for a pony, and she has a toothache. Oh, and she just got distracted while driving and plowed into the back of Bray Johnson (Josh Lucas), a visitor from out of town.

Fortunately, Bray isn’t as vindictive as, say, Russell Crowe in “Unhinged.” He offers to repair Miranda’s car, and later her house.

He subscribes to the philosophy of “The Secret,” and gets the family to subscribe to it as well, especially once things start going their way. Pizzas arrive at the house

to spare them from a lousy beans-and-rice dinner, the repairs go better than expected, the daughter comes up with a great idea for her birthday party, and Miranda’s boyfriend (Jerry O’Connell) proposes to her. Seriously, everything starts going right, like one ridiculous reward after another, to

Grade: C“The Secret: Dare to Dream” is available On Demand through online streaming services and likely through your local cable provider. The film is rated PG for language and an injury image. Its running time is 107 minutes.

If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the exis-

tence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.

NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 714-730-2727 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site www. servicelinkASAP.com for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case 00000007573405. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

TRI-COUNTY SENTRY, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 16, 2020

Port wins 10th consecutive award for excellence in financial reporting Port Hueneme- – For the tenth consecutive year, the Oxnard Harbor District, which owns the Port of Hueneme, is being recognized for Excellence in Financial Reporting by the Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA). The award highlights the Port’s FY2019 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) which was strenuously reviewed by professional financial statement preparers, independent auditors, academics, and other finance professionals.

“

AS a public agency, we have a duty to be transparent with our constituents, this continued recognition shows we hold this responsibility with the upmost importance,” stated Jess Ramirez, Oxnard Harbor District President.

“Our Port takes pride in our fiscal responsibility and serving our residents with the highest standards of prudent and thorough record keeping and open and transparent financial reporting,” said Andrew Palomares, the Port’s Deputy Executive Director & CFO/ CAO. “It is an honor to receive our tenth consecutive award, an affirmation of the commitment our Commissioners and dedicated staff have to the integrity of our work.”

According to GFOA,

“The CAFR has been judged by an impartial panel to meet the high standards of the program, which includes demonstrating a constructive ‘spirit of full disclosure’ to clearly communicate its financial story and motivate potential users and user groups to read the CAFR.” The GFOA established the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting Program (CAFR Program) in 1945 to “encourage and assist state and local governments to go beyond the minimum requirements of generally accepted accounting principles to prepare comprehensive annual financial reports that evidence the spirit of transparency and full disclosure and then to

recognize individual governments that succeed in achieving that goal.”

The Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA), founded in 1906, represents public finance officials throughout the United States and Canada.

The association’s more than 20,000 members are federal, state/provincial, and local finance officials deeply involved in planning, financing, and implementing thousands of governmental operations in each of their jurisdictions.

GFOA’s mission is to advance excellence in public finance.

GFOA has accepted the leadership challenge of public finance. To meet the many needs of its members, the organization provides best practice guidance, consulting, networking opportunities, publications including books, e-books, and periodicals, recognition programs, research, and training opportunities for those in the profession.

NEWS Oxnard successfully negotiates new Amazon Fulfillment Center to bring more than 1,500 new jobs with benefits to the city Oxnard-– The City of Oxnard today announced a partnership with Amazon, the global internet retailer, to open a new fulfillment center at the Sakioka Farms Business Park in Oxnard.

Located just off the 101 freeway between Rice Avenue and Del Norte Boulevard, the Amazon project will bring more than 1,500 jobs with benefits to Oxnard when the company launches the facility next year.

“

THIS is a transformational project for the Sakioka property and highlights the strong economic

opportunities in Oxnard,” said Mayor Tim Flynn. “We have been engaging with Amazon in a variety of ways and it’s exciting to see the company now come to build and hire in the City.”

Mayor Pro Tem Carmen Ramirez said, “This couldn’t have come at a better time given the pandemic and the economic downturn. The opportunity to provide reliable jobs with great benefits to more than 1,500 people is a win for the entire community.”

“We are excited to join the community and create more than 1,500 new, full-time jobs with industry-leading pay and benefits at our newest fulfillment center in the state of California,” said Andre Almeida, regional

director of Amazon Operations.

“This facility will utilize Amazon Robotics, with 24 years’ worth of technological innovations. We are grateful for the support we have received from the city and local leaders who have helped make this project possible.”

For years the Sakioka property has been viewed as a potential site for a business park that could attract major employers to Oxnard. The 430-acre property is one of the last large pieces of land in the City with the potential for development. In the past 9 months, City staff worked with the property owners to approve the subdivision of the Sakioka property and related entitlements that allows the transformation of the property for business use,

including the approvals for the new Amazon fulfillment center.

“We’re grateful for the Sakioka family’s time and effort to bring this opportunity to the City,” said Councilman Bryan MacDonald.

“It’s been a complex process, but the dedicated work and collaboration between the City, the Sakioka family, and Amazon have brought a great company to Oxnard that will pave the way for more business developments.”

City staff partnered with Amazon to quickly work through the permit process to advance the project. With the anticipated opening of the fulfillment center next year, the offering of new jobs and additional revenue provides the economic vitality needed to jumpstart economic development

opportunities within the City of Oxnard.

“As a result of the dedicated work of the City Council, the Planning Commission, and City staff, we are opening our doors to one of the world’s largest companies,” said City Manager Alexander Nguyen. “Our teams have worked hard to drastically improve the permitting process and provide the necessary engineering and building safety code checks in order to ensure we can bring the great job opportunities Amazon provides to our community.

Construction of the fulfillment center is expected to begin this month and is anticipated to be fully operational by the end of 2021.
