Herald Day filled with fun, Council puts local firefighter remembered sales tax before voters, wants funds for P&R
By Matthew Malone News Editor
In a celebrat ion of community, Herald Day brought in locals with a car show, an auction, games, unique crafts and the traditional parade. The Aug. 6 event also honored late Herald firefighter Joe Grubba. “The community is what makes it special,” said Robin DeFehr, president of Herald Community Club, which mounts the annual event. The festivities kicked off with the parade, which traveled along Herald and Ivie roads. Area organizations and residents waved See HERLAD DAY on Page 4

Comparing Galt’s current sales tax with the local sales tax cap and with the city’s possible tax rate if both the county and city measures pass and get implemented. If just the city tax passed, Galt’s tax rate would be 9.25%; if only the county tax passed, the rate would be 8.75%.
Sales tax cap might pit Galt against county By Matthew Malone News Editor

Looking over their general-election ballots this year, Galt residents will
possibly see two sales tax measures. One is a 1-cent citywide tax that Galt City Council wants to fund parks and recreation; the other is a half-cent county
tax that would go toward transportation projects. However, if both measures pass, the effect won’t be as simple as adding 1.5 percentage points to Galt’s
sales tax. A legal cap on local sales taxes means state officials would decide whether to implement one, See SALES TAX on Page 3
In a special meeting on Aug. 4, Galt City Council decided unanimously to put a 1-cent sales tax increase before voters. T h e m e m b e r s vo i c e d their reluctance to propose new taxes, but most felt it would be necessary to adequately fund the city’s parks and recreation, and landscaping maintenance. Over the course of the two-and-a-half-hour discussion, the contours of the proposed tax emerged: It would be a generalpurpose 1% sales tax, projected to raise $3.6 million annually. Galt’s current sales tax is 8.25%, and it would rise to 9.25% if the measure were approved. Among cities in Sacramento County, Galt currently has a midrange sales tax. Several cities, like Elk Grove, have the county base rate of 7.75%, and three, including Sacramento, have a rate of 8.75%. The d iscussion initially concerned whether to choose a general or a special sales tax. A general sales tax needs only a simple majority among voters to pass, and the city council controls how the revenue is spent. A special tax needs a two-thirds vote, and the revenue must be spent for the purpose or purposes specified in the text. A poll commissioned by the city showed simple majorities of likely Galt voters in support of either kind of tax, but the special tax was not getting the two-thirds it would need. As a result, Council made plans to consider a general tax while also adopting an expenditure policy. The resolution would declare
Council ’s priorities for spend ing the revenue, but it avoids creating a special tax because it can be amended or overturned by a Council vote. The dra f t spend ing plan that staff presented at the August meeting included three categories of spending: parks and recreation, landscaping and “other quality of life issues.” The quality-of-life section listed the following areas: “911 emergency response and support for public safety, prevention of trash/blight/il lega l du mpi ng on publ iclymaintained property, and road repair, rehabilitation, and maintenance, as deemed necessary by the City Council.” Council Member Jay Va ndenburg a nd Vice Mayor Paul Sandhu said they favored a specia l tax. Sandhu said that the spending policy might persuade him to support a general measure. Vandenburg said the wording of the spending plan was too vague. “The way the resolution is written, it’s just for anything. There’s too many landmines in here,” Vandenburg said, pointing to the mentions of maintenance and road repair. He also pointed to the spending plan’s title, which calls the tax an “essential services measure.” Vandenburg also proposed adding a sunset provision to the measure, but this suggestion did not gain traction. Sp e a k i ng i n publ ic comment, Jerry Sauter said he lives in one of Galt’s lighting and landscaping districts, which receive subsidies from the Genera l Fund because See COUNCIL on Page 3

Something’s lost and can’t be found. And since the missing object is a brand-new Kodak Disk 4000 camera (with exposed film bearing Herald Day’s pictures, yet), the loss causes a great deal of grief to the young lady who owned the camera. It was last seen in the bingo area on Herald Day.

they aren’t able to raise enough money to cover expenses. Sauter asked why the city is asking residents to pay more and said the city is taking “the easiest path possible.” Mayor Shawn Farmer responded that, while the city is doing what it can with the funds it has, the reduced service levels have resulted in complaints from residents. He said other options to raise revenue, such as encouraging growth, are unpopular. On the tax rate, Council faced an additional division. Vandenburg and Sandhu preferred a halfcent tax while Council Members Rich Lozano and Kevin Papineau supported a full cent. Lozano said he had two criteria for his support for putting the tax before voters: “Frivolous spending” had to be gone, and Lozano had to know that the people wanted a tax measure. “Those two things have been – I believe – accomplished,” Lozano said. Farmer attempted to find a compromise; the tax measure needed the
support of at least four council members to go on the ballot. T houg h Papi ne au expressed openness to supporting a half-cent measure, he said it “barely addresses the current shortfall ” in the city’s lighting and landscaping districts without leaving much money to beg in restoring parks and rec services. Earlier in the meeting, Papineau said he was in favor of advancing the measure because of “vital” services that the city can’t fund. “I think it just boils down to, I’ve heard the voice of the people, and I’m ready to put it on the ballot and let them have their say. … How I would personally punch my ballot for the tax is not an issue,” Papineau said. Support ultimately coalesced around the 1-cent general tax, with the stipulation that the expenditure plan be modified so that the funds would be targeted narrowly at parks and rec. Council asked sta f f to remove the quality-of-life section and include a list of the specific parks and thoroughfares whose upkeep

will be supported by the tax. The edited resolution will be presented at a future meeting. The council members voted 5-0 in favor of putting the tax measure on the ballot. Several of them
explained their reasoning as they voted. Sandhu said he voted yes because the measure “ is a better chance for the city, especially parks and recreation, to receive funds through a general
or alone, but he emphasized that neither type of recourse has guaranteed success. Appealing to the Legislature has precedent in the state. In 2022, more than 100 local jurisdictions have sales tax rates above the cap, many in Los Angeles County or the Bay Area.
The cities of Alameda and Albany have the highest rate in the state, at 10.75 cents on the dollar. If Galt’s tax measure were to pass while the county’s did not, Galt would be at the local maximum of 9.25% and have one of the highest sales taxes among the county’s cities.
Sales Tax Continued from Page 1
the other or both. Galt currently has a total sales tax of 8.25%. This rate is divvied up among multiple levels of government. The city of Galt has the 0.5% Measure R tax, Sacramento County charges 0.5%, and these are both on top of the state of California’s base rate of 7.25%. The total sales tax rate in a local jurisdiction cannot exceed 9.25%, which, after the state tax, leaves counties and cities 2% to claim. If both taxes before Galt voters in the general election were to pass, they would take the city above the limit, to 9.75%. The county measure’s odds of success appear favorable. It is similar to two previous proposals that originated in the county board of supervisors. Both had strong majority support, but the first fell short of the two-thirds vote needed to pass, and the second
was dropped when polls indicated it wouldn’t reach that threshold either. Unlike its predecessors, the new county measure is a community initiative, and if it reaches the ballot, it will need only a simple majority, 50% plus one vote, to pass. Galt’s sales tax measure also needs a simple majority. Speaking to City Council members as they deliberated over the proposed citywide tax on Aug. 4, Interim City Attorney Frank Splendorio said the city would have two main options in the event that both measures pass. It could ask the state Legislature to approve an exception allowing it to have the higher rate, or it could wait for an opinion from the state attorney general’s office on which tax to implement. Splendorio said the legislative option is “the most straightforward path forward” for the city, either working with the county
tax measure versus a special tax.” He emphasized that his support was contingent on the money going to parks and rec. Vandenburg said he didn’t support the tax and considered it “rushed.” However, he said he voted yes out of an “overriding comm it ment to a l low
people to decide if they wish to levy the tax themselves.” “I think none of us want to be up here … pushing for a tax,” Farmer said. He said the sales tax measure is a chance for residents to decide how they want to fund services they are requesting.

to the crowd of onlookers from their decorated vehicles, and some handed out candy to children along the way. Sacramento County Supervisor Don Nottoli rode with Ron Jacobson in a red roadster that Jacobson had restored. Herald Day is “kind of like a reunion. People come together that may or may not see each other regularly, but it really has a strong tradition.” Assembly Member Ken Cooley, D-Rancho Cordova, said he had a “blast” greeting constituents and riding in the parade on the Hospenthal family’s tractor. Cooley expressed sadness that, because of redistricting, this would be the last Herald Day he attends as a representative of the community. “I represent about half a million people, but there is no community quite like Herald. And it’s Herald Days. It’s the Christmas

Eve breakfast. It’s the Porch Club. It’s all of these things. What a great day to be in Herald.” There was a range of activities for attendees to try out, such as bingo with the Lions Club. Winners had their choice of a bottle of wine or a pound of bacon. Herald Baptist Church set up a water dunk game, where plenty of children cooled off by getting a bucket of water poured on their head. Vendors sold handmade crafts and foods, including creatively
flavored jams. The “Herald Dayz & Nightz” car show, a new addition to the event, featured classic and vintage cars from multiple decades. A live auction offered bidders more than 80 items to bid on, given by about 30 donors. The dedication of a park bench in honor of late Herald firefighter Joe Grubba was another highlight of the day. Grubba, who served with Herald Fire Protection District for 44 years, died in 2021 at the age of 76.
G r ubba’s d aug hte r, Joanne Bear, and wife, Irene Grubba, led the dedication along with Nottoli. “We know Joe served this community. He loved this community with all his heart and would do anything for anybody, whether he knew them or not. Two o’clock in the morning, 6 a.m. – it didn’t matter what time of day it was; he got a call, he went to help,” Bear told attendees. Bear told the Herald the bench, which faces the play structure at Herald

She said, “It’s very special to see the impact and the ripple effect he had here on people in the community, and then vice versa, the effect that people had on him and the joy he had in serving them.”
Western Service Workers Association celebrates 49th anniversary serving the Sacramento region By Lance Armstrong Valley Oak Press Staff Writer
Western Service Workers Association (WSWA) Sacramento, on July 29, celebrated its 49th year in the Sacramento region, including Galt. This all-volunteer, unincorporated, private, grassroots membership organization focuses on assisting low-income service and domestic workers and their families. I n a d he r i n g t o it s motto, “In Unity There is Strength,” WSWA Sacramento invites professionals, business owners, clergy and students to assist people who are struggling, through a free-of-charge, self-help, 11-point benefit program for low-income workers. That program, which aims to turn around poverty conditions, is made
possible through much support throughout local communities. Features of the 11-point benefit program include emergency food and clothing services, preventative medical care, nonemergency dental care and legal advice. Elena Sanchez, a fulltime volunteer organizer and the operations manager for WSWA Sacramento, praised Galt’s support of the organization’s efforts. “We have a strong base of support in Galt,” she said. “That’s very significant, because our organizing expands throughout the region, and we couldn’t do it without that support.” In celebrating the longevity of WSWA Sacramento, Sanchez spoke about the people who established the organization. “Our organization was founded by chore work-

one, no other interest, save the workers themselves, is served by WSWA,” she said. “So it (was) founded by and for the lowest-paid workers in (the region), starting with domestic workers.” Sanchez stressed that it is the independence of WSWA Sacramento that allows the organization to achieve its many goals to assist low-income, working members. “No government funding at all whatsoever, and then no funding with strings attached,” she said. “From 1973, it has always been by and for low-income, working people. “We say that, when there is a wrong committed, there’s a group of people be-
ing wronged and no one knows better than they do what a solution looks like, because they’re suffering from a lack of solution. So we want the guiding star, so to speak, to always be those most affected by the problems.” Derek Bruner, administrative assistant of WSWA Sacramento, told the Herald that the 49th anniversary of the organization stands as a testament of its strength and resiliency. “We’ve been around since 1973, and we haven’t closed our doors a single time, especially throughout the entire pandemic,” Bruner said. Sanchez mentioned that this organization continues strong through a very chal-
lenging time in its history. “In a very difficult time in our country, we can still come together with people from all different backgrounds to celebrate both the victories, but also to get all pumped for the work ahead,” she said. Sanchez added that it is important to WSWA Sacramento to support the United Nations’ 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which promotes peace, sustainable development, and efforts to eradicate poverty, including extreme poverty. “We advocate for them, we endorse them, we promote them,” she said.

Dr. Ireland
The William Ireland family moved from New York to Galt around 1905. William went to work at the Sego Milk Plant. The two youngest children attended Galt schools. Donald, the youngest son, graduated from Galt High School in 1921. In 1925, he graduated from the College of Physicians and Surgeons Dental School in San Francisco (now the University of the Pacific Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry). After interning for a couple of years, Dr. Donald Ireland opened a practice in Galt. At the age of 40, Ireland enlisted in the Army during World War II. As a member of the 101st Airborne, he was captured during the Battle of the Bulge and spent the remainder of the war as a prisoner of war in Stalag 9C. Upon returning to Galt in 1945, Ireland resumed his practice, passing away in 1975.

Obituaries Dawn Bernice Perry (Perez)
Dawn Bernice Perry (Perez), age 43, passed away at St. Joseph's Hospital in Stockton on July 11, 2022. Dawn was born August 3, 1978 in San Leandro, CA. She lived the last 33 years in the Galt area and the last 6 in Acampo. Known much of her life by her friends and family as “Dawnie-Pooh”, she was the light of the family. Always laughing and finding the good in everyone, she was loved by all. She was kind, loving, funny, beautiful, and most importantly an incredible mother to her 4 babies. She was known for her big personality, kindness to others, great integrity and high principles. She lived life to the fullest and loved to let down her hair and have a good time. Her family was never quite sure what she would say next. Her early years were filled with the joys of the car show circuit through her family's business, a love which never left her and a second family who loved her deeply. The last 20 years of her life have been full of love as she raised four beautiful children. Being a mother was her calling and she leaves behind four kind, intelligent, loving babies who will take what she's taught them and create wonderful lives. In the last 7 years, Dawn and her Best Friend Shana, have raised their 7 children together in the home they shared. They created a beautiful, blended family and lived on land with farm animals, pets, gardens and fresh air for the Children to enjoy. They were so blessed to have each other and support each other through difficult times. The family is so grateful to Shana for making her life a happy one. Dawn is survived by her four children, Gabe, Angelo, Ellie and Cruz Perez and her Best Friend, Shana Moreno and Dawn's 3 “bonus” children, Makayla, Makenzie and Isaiah. She is also survived by her Mother, Donna Perry, Sister, Angi Perry, her Niece, Rhea Traser, Nephew Jaden Traser and many Aunts, Uncles and Cousins. Dawn was preceded in death by her loving Father, Rick Perry. She will lay at rest next to her beloved Daddy and eventually Momma at East Lawn Elk Grove Memorial Park and Mortuary in Elk Grove.

Complex and Galt Community Park. Galt Police Department officers and Cosumnes Fire Department personnel made stops at each of the sites to play games and meet attendees. Representatives from other law enforcement agencies and the military were also in attendance. Arriving at any of the locations, attendees were greeted by party games like cornhole and ladder toss, as well as food from local restaurants and popular music. Branden Heskett, a campus pastor at RiverCity Church Galt, was giving out root beer floats with fellow church members at Meadowview. He looked forward to connecting with the community. “And who doesn’t love root beer floats?” Heskett said. “So it should be a fun night, getting to see everybody come together.” At the sports complex,

Denes Damasdi with Horizon Community Church was encouraging community connection by hosting sessions of Big Talk, a card game designed to get strangers to have deep conversations with each other. “Especially at an event like this, it helps people to get together and talk to people,” Damasdi said. The Galt officers held a friendly competition with cornhole and ladder toss games at the different locations. The tournament culminated at Galt Com-
munity Park with the “tortilla challenge.” The social media challenge has two people fill their mouths with water and play rock, paper, scissors. The winner gets to slap the loser with a tortilla. The ultimate goal for the players is to keep the water in their mouths the whole time. Galt Chief of Police Brian Kalinowski participated in the games throughout the evening, including the tortilla challenge. “I think the tortilla challenge was punishment, and so I took it,” Kalinowski

joked. “But I think it was fun. I think it was a good time. I enjoyed it, and hopefully the staff enjoyed it, too.” Kalinowski said there was “a good cross-section of the department” in attendance, with several recently sworn-in officers and people who are still in training getting to interact
with the community they serve. “I think like every year (National Night Out) is a good opportunity for us to be out in the community, take a pause from the work we’ve been doing and spend some time just talking to folks outside the regular work environment,” Kalinowski said.

tion to its many supporters, WSWA Sacramento held an anniversary dinner celebration with an evening of entertainment and messages of gratitude for the longstanding efforts of those who have strived to continue and expand this organization’s success. Among the entertainers at the July 29 event were DJ Sabor Latino, keyboardist Kevin Sumner, vocalist Ingrid Tejada and the Brazilian Center for Cultural Exchange of Sacramento. Flavio Soria served as the celebration’s master of ceremonies. While standing on the event’s stage at Midtown Church, Sanchez shared some details about WSWA Sacramento. “Our membership is now over 41,000,” she said. “Our office central is located just south of Oak Park, in a building acquired for the benefit of our membership, along with an acre of property that gives us more

recognized that there was a dire need for affordable quality health care services for domestic workers and low-paid worker families. “(As a result), volunteer doctors and other medical professionals formed (the) Coalition of Concerned Medical Professionals, or
CCMP, as an all-volunteer association to demand the right of low-paid workers to (gain) access to comprehensive medical care,” she said. Sanchez commended CCMP for a id ing her organization’s members “through thick and thin”
during the COVID-19 pandemic. Orlando Fuentes, who serves as a director of the Cosumnes Community Services District board, was attending the celebration as a member of the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC), the largest and oldest Hispanic membership organization in the United States. Fuentes explained why he is drawn to the efforts of WSWA Sacramento. “Western Service Workers serves the poor and the poorest of the poor, especially those that fall between the cracks,” he said. “I really admire the work they do. It’s grassroots people. Nobody gets paid, it’s a volunteer organization, and they accomplish great things.” Bernie Buenrostro, who is also a LULAC member, spoke about his organization’s support of WSWA Sacramento. “We have supported them for many years — maybe as many as 10,” he
said. “We collect clothing and provide clothing to their organization. They help the working poor. We’re in favor of that. We like to help in any way we can.” Dave Roland, a strategic planner with the Sacramento Municipal Utility District, told the Herald that attending the July 29 event gave him a greater love for the community and WSWA Sacramento. “Beautiful humanity on parade,” he said. “Because of the wholeheartedness and warmth of the event, I was truly moved to engage and support the workers association as they unite, work and pull each other up by their own bootstraps. I’ve been volunteering (for WSWA Sacramento) since 2019 and it’s been a very good thing in my life.” “They may be small, but they are mighty.” For additional information about the Western Service Workers Association, call 916-456-1771 or visit the website, www. wswasacto.org.

H
appy National S’mores Day. Always celebrated on Aug. 10 (not a suggestion on Holiday Insights why this date was chosen), s’mores are a favorite campsite treat for young and old, kids and adults. If you’ve attended a campfire, chances are there were s’mores. Sticky and gooey, and loaded with sugar and carbs, s’mores are nothing short of delicious. Who was the first person to create s’mores? I don’t know. But I am sure glad they did! National S’mores Day celebrates this tasty summer treat because it’s appropriately observed in August — prime
S’mores: Melting chocolate — and hearts — for 100 years time for camping and campfires (remember to practice fire safety). However, don’t limit your consumption of s’mores to the campfire. They are popular with kids year-round, and can be baked in the oven, or microwave. The origin of s’mores dates back to the 1920s. It’s believed the recipe was created by the Campfire Girls. Girl Scouts soon followed suit, finding it to be chocolatey and delicious. Before long, s’mores became a campfire staple for everyone. S’mores folklore suggests that s’mores got their name right by the campfire. After eating one, young kids chanted,
“Gimme some more!” While much is written about National S’mores Day, Holiday Insights’ research has been unable to verify that this is an officially recognized national day (which requires an act of Congress). Don’t let that stop you from celebrating this day with a few s’mores. S’mores are so yummy, even made indoors over a three-wick candle (Hey, don’t judge! Desperate times call for desperate measures) or the gas stove. I like my marshmallow charred to a dark brown, so it melts the chocolate. And the graham cracker must be fresh and crisp, so it crumbles at first bite.
Yum! Herald Day was a lot of fun. Beautiful cars, tasty food, great array of vendors, interesting parade and lively auction. Picked up some mighty tasty jam from one of the vendors. Glad we bought more than one jar. Tears were shed for the late Joe Grubba at his bench dedication. He was a good guy, always willing to help. Friendly to all, and he knew everyone and their dog. He is missed. It looks like a great bench for sitting and thinking. Take time to have a sit-down on the bench and contemplate your contribution to this world. The horseshoe tournament ended the
day. Everyone else had packed up, cleaned up, and were gone, and the shoe throwers were still at it. It was a good day. Kudos to the “Herald Angels.” The Herald Park holiday tree is decorated honoring school days. It even has a yellow school bus as a tree topper. I appreciate the Angels’ imagination; seeing the tree decorated makes me smile every time I pass the park. We had an early birthday gathering this past Sunday for granddaughter Grace. She will be away at college when her actual birthday arrives in September. We wish her well in her college endeavors. It will be an adventure

Affordable ways to make homes more appealing to modern buyers Home t rend s come and go. Today’s must-have items tend to become tomorrow’s outdated features in the blink of an eye. Ho me ow ne r s who plan to stay in their current homes for years to come needn’t prioritize modern trends over personal preferences. Howeve r, homeowners looking to sell their homes can consider these favored features to increase their properties’ appeal to modern buyers. • Separate laundry room: According to the National Association of Home Builders’ 2021 What Home Buyers Really Want report, a separate room ded icated to l au nd r y wa s the most desired feature among prospective home buyers. Though it might not inspire the awe of an outdoor living room or floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking a wooded backyard, a laundry room fills a direct and universal need. Perhaps that’s why 87 percent of buyers want a room dedicated to laundry in a home. • Exterior lighting: Drive through a modern suburb a n n e i g h b o rhood at night and it won’t take long before you realize the popularity of exterior lighting.
Side-by-side kitchen sinks are sought-after features among prospective home buyers.
And that’s no coincidence, as homeowners everywhere appear to embrace exterior lighting. The NAHB report indicates that exterior lighting is the most sought-after outdoor feature. The good news for prospective sellers is that exterior lighting is an inexpensive and instant way to transform a property at night. Some solar-powered lighting along walkways and outside the front door can make a home feel more safe, while
some uplighting of large trees in the backyard can produce a sight to behold once the sun goes down. • Energy-efficient upgrades: Inflation has driven up the cost of just about everything over the last year-plus, and energy is no exception. So it should come as no surprise that 83 percent of prospective home buyers are looking for energy-efficient windows and appliances in a home. These features save money and benefit
the planet, making them a win-win among buyers. • Patio: Patio spaces have long b e e n p o p u l a r, but that popularity reached new heights during the pandemic. When forced to stay at home for long periods of time, mill ions of people longed for ways to spend more time outdoors without breaking lockdown rules. Patios provide outdoor living spaces, and 82 percent of buyers indicated they wanted
a patio with their next property. • Side-by-side sink: A double or side-by-side sink is among the more affordable features buyers are looking for. At less than $1,000 on average, a side-by-sink is an affordable way to make a home more appealing to modern buyers. Modern buyers want a lot out of their homes, and sellers can do their best to meet those desires while getting the most money for their properties.
The rise in all-electric homes When asked to think of modern homes, many people might think of minimalism, neutral colors, open concept f loor plans, and large windows w i t h o u t t r e a tments. While each of those features are components of modern homes, just what qualifies as “modern” is ever-changing and often a ref lection of what buyers are looking for. And lately, many buyers are looking for allelectric homes. A 2015 study by the U.S. Energy Information Administration found that the number of all-electric homes had increased over the previous de-
cade.
