Board clears way for new countywide septic system regulations RIVERSIDE – The Board of Supervisors tentatively approved new regulations on what type of septic systems may be installed in unincorporated communities throughout Riverside County and who can be hired to handle the work during its Oct. 25 meeting.

In a 5-0 vote without comment, the board expressed support for Ordinance 650.6, which was due for a second and final reading Nov. 1.

The measure is the culmination of six months work by the Department of Environmental Health and centers on a “land area management plan” that specifies the

process for approving and reviewing proposed on-site wastewater treatment systems.

Under the ordinance, all septic tank installations and replacements would be subject to scrutiny and classification, using tiered criteria ranked 0-4.

Tier 0 is a “properly functioning” on-site wastewater tank. Tier 1 is a “low-risk” system, not a public health threat. Tier 2 refers to “alternative methods” for installing a system that otherwise might be in a place where authorities discern an elevated risk of sewage contamination of fresh water channels. Tier

3 requires heightened measures to prevent seepage into water supplies, and tier 4 refers to systems “in failure.”

The ordinance primarily deals with the first two tiers and spells out the permitting process with which a homeowner or business would have to comply.

Under the new regulations, a proposal for a stand-alone septic system would have to include a plot plan, groundwater and bedrock evaluation and results of percolation tests done on-site. A county review would ensue, generally taking 15 working days to complete.

generation, potentially.”

Environmental health chief Steve Van Stockum told Jeffries that a stringent inspection code has to be followed, or the county will risk running afoul water control boards that have the ability to clamp down on construction projects. He said that the San Diego County Water Authority, which over sees pockets of southwest Riverside County, is particularly strict.

The ordinance lays out a multistep appeals process for homeowners and businesses who don’t feel as though they’re getting a fair shake from the county.

The proposal was drawn up in response to a law implemented in 2001, which requires local health agencies to establish criteria for septic tank installations at businesses and residences. Assembly Bill 885 apparently went unenforced until 2012, when the state was sued by private interests alleging the State Water Resources Control Board had not actively ensured compliance.

All work on the system would have to be performed by a “professional of record” and “qualified service provider” registered with the county.

Projects would be subject to permitting fees and annual inspections, according to the Department of Environmental Health.

During a hearing in March on the drafting of the ordinance, Supervisor Kevin Jeffries expressed concern about creating more bureaucratic red tape for residents and businesses by tightening the certification and review process for septic systems, especially by supplying parties with only a limited number of “registered” contractors from which to choose.

Jeffries also worried about the implications for “older communities” within his 1st District, including Meadowbrook and Mead Valley that could be adversely affected by the proposed rules.

“There’s no central sewage system available,” the supervisor said.

Temecula voters split on council race and tax hike Tim O’Leary TOLEARY@REEDERMEDIA.COM Temecula voters recently cast a series of split decisions at the polls.

Voters rejected one incumbent council member as they returned another to office. Meanwhile, the outcome of a proposed sales tax increase continues to hang in the balance.

Mayor Mike Naggar won a fifth term on the City Council, easily outdistancing eight other candidates in the crowded race. Challenger James “Stew” Stewart fended off the rest of the field for the second open seat.

In doing so, the longtime business owner ousted appointed incumbent Michael McCracken.

The outcome of the hotly-contested council race emerged soon after the close of the polls Nov. 8. But for a week afterward, the outcome of a bid to dramatically boost the city’s share of its sales tax receipts remains too close to call.

Measure S – intended to pump $23 million a year into the city’s coffers – appeared to be heading for a defeat after all the election precincts were counted. But then the outcome reversed itself after a large batch of uncounted absentee, provisional and damaged ballots was tallied.

The results of a subsequent ballot count were to be announced as this story went to the printers. The weeklong span between Election Day and the official results has made the race the closest to ever play out in the fast-growing city.

Proponents of Measure S outspent their foes by a vast margin. The current council cast a unanimous vote to put the tax measure on the ballot, and all of its current members had endorsed its passage.

A wave of new results reversed that outcome and Measure S was seen as passing by 311 votes. That margin represented just a sliver of the nearly 29,500 counted Temecula voters who had marked their ballots one way or another on the measure.

But that outcome might change yet again. At the close of last week’s processing efforts, election officials said another 205,000 absentee, provisional and damaged ballots that were collected from across the county still needed to be processed.

The seesaw state of the Measure S election left some city officials reluctant to speculate on its outcome.

Temecula’s voter base represents about 5 percent of the countywide total. As a result, another tally could again tip the scale in such a close election.

Mayor Naggar said in a postelection email that the council would likely regroup in February if Measure S loses. That is when the council will examine revenues and expenditures at the halfway point of the current fiscal year. A longer look ahead would be done when the budgeting process starts about that time for the upcoming fiscal year, he said.

“Regardless of the result, it appears the community is divided on the issue so we will have to navigate both sides,” he said. “Nothing in Temecula is ‘free,’ and everything we spend our money on is what the citizens want.”

Greg Butler, assistant city manager, echoed that perspective in a Saturday afternoon telephone interview.

He characterized his outlook as “cautiously optimistic” after voter support had rebounded for Measure S. He said the final outcome will dictate the city’s next step.

Seesaw returns: Tax measure a toss up Measure S called for a 1 percent sales tax increase. Proponents said the new revenue stream is needed to preserve the city’s high quality of life. The revenues would cover an anticipated future budget gap and be spent on police, fire, public works, planning and a range of other services.

Foes labeled the measure a “political money grab” and warned that its passage could prompt new businesses to locate outside the city.

The Yes on S Committee raised $12,200 for their outreach effort through Sept. 24, according to the latest financial disclosure documents filed with the city. Foes of the measure said they expected to spend $1,000 or less on their signs and other materials.

Election returns that were released after all the voting precincts were counted showed Measure S had been defeated by a mere 170 votes. But those returns were tempered by a county advisory that a vast number of absentee, provisional and damaged ballots had yet to be tallied.

Council race: One incumbent in, one out In the council race, Naggar captured 29 percent of the votes cast to further extend his council tenure.

James “Stew” Stewart snared 17.2 percent, enough to notch his first win in three bids for the council.

Their closest contenders – Adam Ruiz and Ron Bradley – each netted more than 11 percent of the votes cast. The nine-candidate field was believed to be the largest in Temecula’s nearly 27-year history as a city.

Naggar, a development consultant, led the pack in collecting campaign donations with more than $57,000 raised by the close of the last preelection reporting period.

The other incumbent, Michael McCracken, was vulnerable because he was appointed to a vacant seat in April 2015. McCracken, a city parks commissioner for seven years, ran his first race for public office.

McCracken finished sixth with nearly 8 percent of the votes cast.

His defeat earned him a notch as just the third incumbent – along with Sam Pratt and Karel Lindemans – to have lost an election bid since Temecula

became a city in December 1989.

Conversely, Stewart will join an elite field, becoming just the 15th person to serve on Temecula’s council over the city’s history.

Stewart, who owns a string of barber shops, unsuccessfully ran for the council in 2006 and 2008. Then he switched his political focus and won a seat on the Rancho California Water District governing board. He served one term from 2011 to 2015.

Stewart did not accept or receive any campaign donations, according to his disclosure forms. He expected to spend less than $2,000 of his own money on his campaign.

He attributed his victory to his name recognition, his 25 years as a city resident and the close connections he forged over that period.

He said the large field of candidates likely aided him by diluting the vote.

“It really was my perfect storm,” Stewart said in a post-election telephone interview. “I knew I went in with a solid base (of voters) and it proved to be enough.”

Stewart campaigned against Measure S. He had misgivings over certain provisions, including its lack of a sunset clause. He wants the city to drill down on its existing priorities and programs. He said the city should wring some cuts out of its budget before it goes to the voters seeking a tax increase.

“I think there’s more to do,” Stewart said. He predicted that his vast business experience would help the city chart its next steps if the sales tax measure ultimately goes down to defeat.

Stewart also predicted that he may be a lone voice in some key growthrelated decisions that the council will make over the next few years.

He has repeatedly cited concerns over traffic congestion and what he perceives as other erosions in the city’s quality of life. Those misgivings, Stewart said, could prompt him to oppose high-density housing projects.

“I really want to stop as much of it as I can,” he said.

Stewart is expected to be sworn in near the close of the council regular meeting on Dec. 13. McCracken would likely be present for the initial items on the agenda, Butler said. Then Stewart would be sworn in and take part in the council action on committee assignments and leadership roles for the upcoming calendar year.

Mayor Naggar believes McCracken faltered because he had scant name recognition and he did not campaign aggressively. McCracken raised nearly $4,900 by the close of the last pre-election reporting period.

Naggar said it is hard to predict whether Stewart will bring a significant change to the council.

“The learning curve is very steep on growth and infrastructure, but he is more than capable,” Naggar said in a post-election email interview.

CHP to host Adult Distracted Drivers traffic safety program SACRAMENTO – Every year, thousands of people are seriously injured or killed statewide in vehicle collisions caused by distracted drivers. The unfortunate truth is distracted driving collisions are 100 percent preventable, because distracted driving is a choice.

Though there are numerous distractions a driver must manage, cellphone use is the most prevalent. With multiple modes of communication and instant entertainment at their fingertips, drivers are constantly engaging in cellphone use while driving.

To combat this issue, the California Highway Patrol is launching a statewide Adult Distracted Drivers

traffic safety program. This program is made possible through a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety and consists of a yearlong campaign of education and enforcement. By the end of September 2017, the CHP will conduct a minimum of 100 distracted driving enforcement operations and at least 600 traffic safety presentations statewide.

“The CHP wants to encourage every driver to make a conscious choice, every time they drive a vehicle, to not drive distracted,” CHP Commissioner Joe Farrow said. “It’s a simple choice that can have a tremendous impact on the safety of our roadways.”

It is important for drivers to understand that their chances of being involved in a vehicle collision increase exponentially when they choose to drive distracted. Once that decision is made, distracted drivers place everyone on the road in danger. Some of the most common types of distracted driving include: texting, talking on a cellphone, eating, grooming, talking to passengers, operating a navigation system and adjusting the radio.

Funding for this program was provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Local MURRIETA from page A-1 Realtors, reported that housing sales for the year are up 6 to 7 percent and median home prices are up 5 to 6 percent. Inventory (supply is at 2-3 months) has been down for the past three years, helping to fuel the rise in prices. Although prices had dropped 42 percent due to the recession, they have rebounded nicely with the median price of homes rising from $254,000 in 2010 to $385,000 in 2016, representing a healthy gain in equity for homeowners.

“We are one of the most underbuilt counties in California,” said Wunderlich, “short of demand by about 65,000 homes. Our housing affordability is only 41 percent in Riverside County compared with 13 percent in San Francisco where the median price of homes is $1.4

million. Rising prices in both home sales and rentals make it hard on the workforce.”

Wunderlich said that “economic growth is painfully slow at 2 percent annually,” but that job growth at 3.2 percent is just behind Silicon Valley (3.8 percent).

Despite the uncertainty of socioeconomic and political factors, Wunderlich expects a 1.4 percent growth in residential home sales and a 4.3 percent increase in median prices.

school. The district employs 2,180 full-time employees.

The schools are ranking at the top in Riverside County in academic achievement, graduation rates and college readiness. MVUSD is one of only 11 out of approximately 1,000 school districts recognized as a CBEE Honor Roll District with 13 schools named as CBEE Honor Roll Schools, 12 Distinguished Schools, and four California Gold Ribbon Schools. CBEE is the Campaign for Business & Education Excellence.

He cited a robotics team is top in the nation and a Virtual Enterprise team is third in the nation.

According to Kelly, the district’s top three priorities are to increase student engagement and achievement, expand access to Career Technical Education opportunities, and to expand access to visual and performing arts.

They are actively seeking “to create a systematized way that students connect with the business community” and they are exploring programs with the Murrieta Chamber of Commerce.

“Every second-grader will get to learn ballroom dancing,” said Kelly.

Health care: Brad Neet, CEO of Southwest health care Systems, shared his organization’s mission of “Building Relationships That Touch the Heart.” SWHCS has 240 beds, a Level II Trauma Center, Pediatric Emergency Center, a DaVinci® Surgical Robot, a Bariatric Surgery Center of Excellence, and the largest birthing center in the Valley with a Level II Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. SWHCS employs more than

500 doctors and 1,400 employees with an annual payroll of over $102 million. They pay local sales tax of over $1.38 million.

Last year they had more than 100,000 emergency room visits and 16,000 admissions.

“We need to move from competitor-centric to customer-centric and align our inventories accordingly,” said Neet.

Peter Baker, VP of Business Development for Loma Linda University Health System, reported that Loma Linda serves 1.5 million patients each year. Loma Linda has 15,000 employees, 5,000 students, and 750 resident physicians in six hospitals, eight schools and 10 institutions. It has over 800 physicians in 67 specialties.

As part of their “Vision 2020” program, Loma Linda is building a new adult hospital and a new children’s hospital. They are utilizing local contractors as much as possible to stimulate the local economy.

They also are a key supporter of Abbott and spend $3.6 million annually for medical supplies with Medline.

“There is a lack of physician coverage in our community,” said Baker, “There are 346 primary care doctors and there should be 1,000.

There are 38 pediatricians and there should be 100.”

“Kaiser Permanente, founded in 1945, is one of the largest nonprofit health care providers with more than 10.6 million members in the program,” said Vita Willett, Sr VP, Area Manager for Kaiser Foundation, Health Plan and Hospitals.

Locally, Kaiser has 680 physicians and 5000 employees in Riverside and Moreno Valley. The

Hadden acknowledged Murrieta’s ranking as the second-safest city in the nation based on FBI crime statistics for cities with at least 100,000 population. Violent crimes (murders, forcible rapes, robberies and aggravated assaults) have been steadily declining in Murrieta from 122 in 2005 to 99 in 2009 to 68 in 2015.

However, Hadden voiced concerns on the effects of Proposition 47 (reducing certain felonies – specifically drugs and commercial burglaries – to misdemeanors) and AB 109 (providing for early release of prisoners to reduce prison overcrowding) on the recent crime in Murrieta.

“Many of these offenders are aware of the thresholds and know they will be back on the streets in no time,” he said.

According to Hadden, property crimes increased 16.7 percent between 2014 and 2015; violent crimes increased 15.94 percent.

Violent crimes are down 9 percent so far this year.

Hadden also outlined the numerous programs that the MPD is involved with including Citizens’ Academy, Explorer Program, RideAlong, Volunteer program as well as youth programs, like the Police Activities League.

Economic development: “The City Council gave me one mandate: to aggressively pursue economic development,” said Coleman, “The City of Murrieta currently has a population of 114,000, median age of 34, 25 percent with a college degree, high family income, great schools, affordable housing, good quality of life, and room to grow. The city is business-friendly located in the center of Southern California with access to seven airports and a population of over 24 million within 90 miles.”

“We want to become a regional job center focused on health care, STEM and growing small businesses,” said Coleman. “We are forming partnerships to develop skilled workforces.”

In addition to the hospital facilities, Coleman noted the planned health care investments of Rady Children’s Hospital, Anthem Memory Care, Renaissance Villages, Health Care Resort of Murrieta, HealthSouth and Granite Rehabilitation.

Investments by the hospitality industry include Comfort Inn, Hampton, Residence Inn, Courtyard by Marriott and Holiday Inn Express.

Food and Beverage investments include Baron’s Market, Downtown Public, Golden Corral, Le Grange Grill and Cellars, 8-Bit Brewing, Electric Brewing Company, Inland Wharf Brewing Company. Some are slated for Downtown Murrieta development.

New retailers include Marshall’s, CVS and Sleep Train.

Coleman also noted companies involved in manufacturing such as iA Robotics and innovation like aerospace and medical devices.

Citing a 1 percent vacancy rate, Coleman stressed the need for business park development.

“Our Innovation Center represents our commitment to entrepreneurship,” said Coleman. “It provides entrepreneurship training and resources, UC Riverside technology transfer, Tech Coast Ventures, seed capital fund.

“Murrieta is benefiting from over $50 million in direct foreign investment,” said Coleman. The city has hosted delegations from two dozen countries and has established partnerships with the U.S. Department of Commerce and other trade organizations. “We hope to grow locally by exports.”

Lastly, Coleman described three infrastructure projects: the I-215 / Keller interchange, Whitewood Road, and the Clinton Keith Extension to Winchester Road.

“Why Murrieta?” asked Coleman, “Because it is the future of Southern California!”

Hemet Flags of Freedom event honors veterans in Gibbel Park Tony Ault TAULT@REEDERMEDIA.COM

U.S. Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force and Coast Guard members, retired and active who live in or near the Hemet/San Jacinto Valley were honored for their unselfish service in defending our nation Friday, at the Flags of Freedom Fourth Annual Tribute to Our Vets in Hemet’s Gibbel Park.

Military service veterans were seen holding the hands of their families and they walked through the 1776 American Flags flying in the park’s gentle hills making their way to the veteran’s memorial to remember those soldiers, Marines, airmen and soldiers who had fallen protecting their families and homeland.

Earlier a contingent of veterans saluted the flag at the memorial, listing the names of local servicemen who had died in World War I, World War II, Korea and Vietnam.

Decorating the memorial next to the purple heart bronze was a red, white and blue wreath presented by the Estudillo Daughters of the American Revolution.

Several times during the celebration four vintage World War II aircraft flew over the park to the delight of visitors.

On the park grounds were vendors, service club booths, gasoline engine scale model airplanes, bounce houses for the children, more than 25 custom and classic cars, the Hemet Fire and Police Department emergency vehicles, a World War II halftrack with

a mounted 75 mm recoilless gun and 2 and one-half ton truck and many other displays.

The West Valley High School award-winning “Pride of the Valley” competition band and flag team, presented a musical performance based on the tale of Pandora’s Box, whose last gift was one of “hope.”

Contestants in the Hemet/San Jacinto Valley Queens competition coming up Nov. 20 were introduced one by one showing off their patriotic dresses for the occasion.

Members of the U.S Marine Corps cut a birthday cake in front of spectators to celebrate the Corps birthday Nov. 10, 1775, when the continental Marines were established. Marines each year celebrate the Corps birthday with a Birthday Cake cutting and the traditional Marine Corp Ball.

The crowds were drawn to the adjacent Gibbel Park sports field where the Hemet Police Department canine car rolled up with red light and siren to hunt down a “bad guy” in the park. The bad guy, played by another police officer, had the city’s canine officer grab him and drag him down as he tried to flee arrest. The canine demonstration brought applause from the large audience and the Hemet Fire Explorers watching from the railing of the departments hook and ladder truck on display.

The annual Flags of Freedom Tribute to Our Vets celebration at Gibbel Park is hosted by the Exchange Club of Hemet/San Jacinto in partnership with the cities of Hemet and San Jacinto. The celebration started the week before Veterans Day with the placing of 1,776 American Flags in the park to honor the birth of our nation and the military veterans and active duty members who serve in the armed forces. It was June 14,

A father and son observe the memorial in Hemet’s Gibbel Park for the soldiers, sailors, Marines and airman from the Hemet/San Jacinto area who lost their lives in both World Wars, the Korean conflict and Vietnam. The park flying 1776 American Flags, Veterans Day Nov. 11, was a part of the Exchange Club of Hemet/San Jacinto and the cities of Hemet and San Jacinto’s Flags for Freedom Fourth Annual Tribute to Our Vets.

1777, when the Continental Congress resolved “that the flag of the United States be made of 13 stripes, alternate red and white that the union be 13 stars, white in a blue field, representing a new Constellation.”

The local Exchange Club like others throughout the nations have a mission to make their communities better places to live. They espouse core values with commitments to Family, Community and Country. The annual Flags of Freedom on Veterans Day in Gibbel Park is their way to show commitment to our country and to honor our veterans everywhere.

The Exchange Club gave special thanks to the supporters of the 2016 Flags of Freedom Fourth Annual Tribute to our Vets. They included: Curry Copy Center of Hemet; Alpha Wealth Management; Wayne and

Tedx Temecula reverberates ideas worth spreading Stephanie Lai VALLEYSTAFF@REEDERMEDIA.COM

A full house of viewers arrived to the Merc in Old Town Oct. 29 as Tedx Temecula hosted their 5th annual production. Eight local speakers presented speeches centered around their theme “Reverberate” to a receptive crowd of over 300.

Functioning as both a stimulating and social event, the independently organized Tedx event brought together members of the community.

Speeches given focused on various subjects ranging from the art of suffering to phone usage in the Information Age. Speakers Rob Crisell, Mayumi Amargo, Isabella Martinez, John McCabe, David Cruz, Mary Mollway, Daniel Midson-Short, Jonathon Mills gave timely speeches throughout the day.

They were accompanied by speaker and musician Diana Rein. The crowd was given egg shakers to keep time with Rein’s blues music performance.

Beginning about 10 a.m., the audience was greeted with refreshments of doughnuts and iced coffee donated by Dunkin’ Donuts and a photo booth. Much of the event was the product of the community donating their services to make the unusual event a reality. With promi-

nent sponsors such as YESplace, who recorded the entire of the event, and the City of Temecula, Tedx Temecula created a forum for innovation and spreading ideas.

Donated by E.A.T Marketplace, the catered lunch provided an intermission to the speeches midday.

A large whiteboard with sticky notes gave audience members the chance to interact and answer questions along the line of “what will I do tomorrow?” During lunch, every table was provided a small arts and craft station of large Popsicle sticks, rubber bands, and cut straws to create a homemade kazoo-like instrument that worked based on the vibrations formed when used.

The reverberation and the unique “Kazoonika,” as it was called, transitioned the event seamlessly and kept the audience’s minds stimulated.

Along with the photo booth, the reception at the close of the event offered wine tasting on behalf of Oak Mountain Valley. However, for those who purchased the VIP experience, the day was not quite over. Located by the balcony above the theatre, a reserved room gave the VIP’s an opportunity to speak one-on-one with the speakers of the event.

Event coordinator Jim Mclaugh-

lin began preparing for this year’s event almost a year ago. He said, “We’ve been working with our volunteers almost every week this year.” Elaborating on the extensiveness of planning an event to such caliber, he and his team of volunteers worked to set up the event, find the speakers and offer some training. It was not easy.

“Of the people who applied to speak, close to none had experience publically speaking, so our team helped teach them how to do exactly that. There’s a lot of cool new techniques and apps that can connect to a smartwatch and track your heart rate,” seasoned volunteer Justin Velthoen said. He further explained how professional speakers would mentor the chosen speakers and help them shape their speech and feel confident onstage, and in the end, the byproduct of the referenced training techniques was what made the speakers successful.

Mclaughlin’s advice for his speakers and potential applicants filed down to the fundamental level of “Why is your idea significant and what is impactful about it.” As speakers referenced the reverberation, or the echoing, of their topics, the audience was given a greater sense of the innovative thinking in the world around them.

DIPLOMAS from page A-1 camps is sponsored by the Riverside County Office of Education with assistance from the Riverside County Department of Veterans’ Services.

“Our veterans are qualified and well-deserving to receive diplomas,” said county Superintendent of Schools Kenneth Young. “We want to do everything we can to make it possible for these outstanding individuals to share that experience with their family and friends.”

Schedler, a U.S. Army veteran, was the oldest veteran at the ceremony. He was in the California National Guard and was activated to full-time service after the attack on Pearl Harbor Dec. 7. This year will mark the 75th anniversary of the attack that President Franklin Delano Roosevelt called “a date which will live in infamy.” The attack killed more than 2,400 naval and military personnel.

Schedler was at the Battle of Guadalcanal, where he and fellow soldiers “dug foxholes for hours and ... spent a lot of time in them” enduring and repelling repeated wave of attacks by the Japanese. After his wartime service, Schedler became a cabinet maker, working in the business for nearly 30 years.

“After I got into adult life, I said, ‘Oh, boy, I should have stayed in high school,’” he said in a video interview before the ceremony. “‘Course I had to make a living so I did everything that I could to make a little money. I’ll be really happy to finally get my high school diploma.”

Schedler said he always wanted his high school diploma.

“I couldn’t go to college without it,” he said. “I got along in my adult life without it, but I will be glad to get it.”

The nine former service members, some in uniform, were clad in caps, tassels and stoles as they received their graduation certificates during a 2 p.m. ceremony at the Moreno Valley Conference & Recreation Center.

Operation Recognition was initiated in 2007, and since then, more than 300 veterans who reside in Riverside County have received diplomas.

The program is based on California Education Code 51440, which permits the retroactive granting of graduation certificates to honorably discharged or retired veterans who served while the country was on a war footing. All they have to do is sign up.

The Office of Education processes applications every year until the first week of October. To see a full video of Schedler’s story, to learn more about Operation Recognition or to sign up to receive a diploma, visit www.rcoe.us and search for Operation Recognition.

The Chaparral Vista Murrieta boys took important steps in their own progress in the Prelims, which returned to the Riverside City CrossCountry Course last week for the second consecutive year.

For the Pumas boys last week’s results meant a first-ever trip to a final after qualifying sixth in their Division 1 heat as they seek a state-meet berth with one more solid run Nov. 19 at the Finals.

Vista Murrieta’s boys found their way to CIF Finals with a fifth-place finish in their heat. Three other teams in their heat also moved on, including Great Oak, whose teams are ranked No. 1 in the state and third (boys) and fourth (girls) in the nation.

Five others advanced individually, led by one of the Division 1 girls’ qualifiers, Chaparral senior Zoe Jarvis (fourth, 17:57.4) and Paloma Valley’s Tristan Sylva, who also moved on.

Confusion mars election in Riverside County for some Kim Harris VALLEYEDITOR@REEDERMEDIA.COM

An unannounced change in polling places caused confusion for some Murrieta voters last week.

Many people were shocked and surprised to find when they arrived at St. Martha’s Catholic Church to cast their vote that their regular polling place had been moved, including me.

More than two dozen people arrived at the church to cast their vote while my son, who was voting for the first time, tried to find our new polling place on his cellphone to no avail. I took to social media and posted a comment asking for help, and luckily for me, Assemblywoman Melissa Melendez was quick to provide me with a link to the secretary of state’s website, since the county page wouldn’t give me the option to click on my address to reveal the new polling location. A text to Michael Garrison, Vice Chairman at The Republican Party of Riverside was also quickly w w w . m y v a l l e y n e w s . c o m

returned with information.

Upon being asked, an office worker at the church simply said that in spite of their desire to be a polling place for the community, the church was told another location would be used for the general elections. According to the worker, no explanation was given.

I tried calling the Riverside Registrar of Voter’s office to find out what exactly was going on with this and why voters weren’t notified, but the message I received was that all operators were currently busy assisting other callers; this went on for about two hours before

I finally gave up. It was Election Day, so I would imagine they were quite busy.

It might seem silly to some for me to be bothered by this unannounced change, and yeah, it’s even kind of embarrassing for me, but my biggest concern was that all residents get to cast their vote in this election. I have to wonder, do people know how to find their polling place? If they went to their usual spot and voting has been moved to another location, would they know what to do or would they just walk away and not bother? Not everyone has the same resources

that I do, so I would hate to think that a change like this could disenfranchise voters because that is exactly what I felt Tuesday morning. I can’t even begin to describe my son’s disappointment.

This is the ninth presidential election I have voted in – my first in California – and I have never seen a polling place be moved without notification to the voters. But maybe that is something normal here. As a fairly new resident to the state of California – I moved here four years ago – all I can do is go with the flow until I figure these things out, I guess.

Preventing drug addiction and abuse Marie Waldron SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

We can all agree about the importance of keeping kids away from illegal drugs. During October, I again participated in Red Ribbon Week, a campaign that seeks to mobilize communities and to educate millions of children nationwide about the dangers posed by illicit drug use. Since the Red Ribbon campaign began in the late 1980s, millions of students have

benefited from its strong anti-drug message, which helps serve as an antidote to the mixed messages about drugs that seem to permeate today’s culture.

As part of this campaign, thousands of California students have received Red Ribbon certificates over the past few weeks, recognizing them for pledging to live drug-free lives. From Temecula to Escondido, my office delivered over 50 thousand Red Ribbon certificates to elementary, middle and

high school students throughout this region.

But keeping kids away from drugs is only part of the battle. Restoring the lives of adult substance abusers must also be a priority.

That’s why I introduced Assembly Bill 2061, which allows formerly incarcerated persons who complete state-approved substance abuse and rehabilitation programs to participate in public/private partnerships that encourage businesses and nonprofits to hire these individuals. AB

RIVERSIDE – On election night, Riverside County Supervisor Kevin Jeffries (1st District) celebrated the passage of Proposition 54, which will prohibit the Legislature from passing any bill unless published on the internet for 72 hours before vote.

“This is a great victory for residents throughout California, and a perfect example of why the initiative process is necessary” said Jeffries. “I introduced legislation to require bills to be publicly available 72 hours before any vote in each of the three terms I served in the State Assembly, and those in power ensured I didn’t get a single actual

vote on my bills, despite support from newspapers and good government organizations statewide.”

“It was clearly not in the best interests of the Sacramento leadership and the special interest groups who write their bills to allow the public to have the opportunity to review their legislation before it came to a vote, and they were definitely not going to curtail their own power to keep the public in the dark,” explained the Supervisor.

Proposition 54 was put on the statewide ballot by California Forward and a host of other advocates for open government in California, including Common Cause, the

League of Women Voters, the First Amendment Coalition, and the Sunlight Foundation.

Supervisor Jeffries praised the work of the organizations, saying “Only through the hard work of outside organizations without a direct financial stake in these reforms was passage of this law possible.

The initiative process was created to give the people of the State of California the ability to make changes that those in power refuse to make themselves, and passage of Proposition 54 shows that the system can still work.”

LAKE ELSINORE – In a solid victory for local schools and present and future students, voters overwhelmingly said ‘yes” to a $105 million

pathways and technology; to increase energy efficiency, and to improve school safety.

Board President Juan I. Saucedo said, “The greatest impact we can have on LEUSD students now and in the future is securing a dependable, long-term source of revenue to meet our goals for a 21st century education.”

The purpose of Measure ‘V’ is to enhance, expand and provide classrooms, labs and equipment for career and technology education classes, so students are prepared for college and in-demand jobs in fields like health sciences, engineering, technology and skilled trades. The measure also provides funding for improved student safety and campus security systems, including security fencing, security cameras, emergency communications systems, smoke detectors, fire alarms and sprinklers and the facilities and technology needed to support high quality instruction in math and science, among other things.

Built-in taxpayer protections include a citizens’ oversight committee for overall transparency, and annual audits of bond revenues and expenditures. School and administrative salaries cannot be paid from Measure ‘V’ bond funds. Instead, bond proceeds may only be used for designated projects and technology investments outlined in the approved bond resolution.

On average the annual cost to property owners is estimated at approximately $19 per $100,000 of assessed valuation. Depending on the timing of bond issuance, Measure ‘V’ secures a stable revenue source for technology and facilities investment over the next 30-40 years. Interest rates are regulated and would meet all lawful requirements over the life of the bonds.

The district is now preparing a call for applications from interested citizens, businesses, parents, a taxpayer oversight group representative, and other stakeholders to fulfill the requirements for establishing the citizens’ oversight committee within the next 60 days.

On behalf of the Board of Trustees, we thank all LEUSD and school staff, parent and community volunteers, business and civic leaders – and voters – for supporting our bond election effort, and for supporting our kids’ future!

What college students should learn about money Nathaniel Sillin SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

As you prepare for a new year at college, managing your money may be the last thing on your mind. But, college is the perfect time to instill strong and healthy financial habits, such as budgeting and living within your means.

By starting on the right foot with good saving and spending habits, you’ll have a good chance to set yourself up for a life of financial success. Here are some ideas students – with the help of parents, relatives and the school’s financial aid office – can consider while taking the leap into living away from home.

Create a financial plan early on.

Create a general financial plan for your college years right away, and a more detailed budget for the upcoming semester. You can start with estimated costs for tuition, fees, room and board from your

school’s financial aid office and fill in the actual numbers once you know them.

Even with financial aid, most college students need to be frugal as they balance major expenses and a limited income from work or parental support. While you may need to take out student loans, the better you manage your personal and educational expenses the less you’ll have to borrow now, and repay later.

Adjust your budget as you go.

Your focus should be school, but you can also take time to track your money and stick to your budget. A budget can be a tool and a learning opportunity, and particularly during your first few semesters, you’ll likely have to make adjustments as you learn to balance wants and needs. Try to stick with it and remember it’s OK to make changes (and an occasional mistake) as you go.

Parents can discuss how they

manage their personal or family budget and offer suggestions for cutting expenses or finding work.

College students may face many financial firsts, such as signing a rental agreement, purchasing insurance or applying for a loan, and parents can share their experiences and advice.

Making your budget add up.

Learning how to roll with the punches and live within your means are timeless skills. You’ll have to balance academic obligations with a part- or full-time job to increase your income. But, there are often flexible on-campus jobs you can qualify for if you have a work-study grant as part of your financial aid package.

When it comes to saving, there are all sorts of ways to cut costs on necessities and indulgences.

Consider the following three tactics almost any college student can use to spend less money.

Use student discounts. Dozens

Sakata receives ‘Who’s Who’ award AZUSA – Temecula resident and Azusa Pacific University student Christie Sakata was included in Who’s Who Among Students, one of the most highly regarded and long-standing honors programs in the nation. Sakata, an Applied Health major, is honored for out-

standing campus leadership, academics and volunteerism. Sakata joins 94 other APU students receiving the same honor.

Azusa Pacific University is an evangelical Christian university committed to God First and excellence in higher education. With 61

bachelor’s degrees, 40 master’s degrees, 17 certificates, 11 credentials, 8 doctoral programs and 4 associate degrees, the university offers its more than 10,000 students a quality education on campus, online and at seven regional centers throughout Southern California.

Little Lake parents graduate leadership academy

HEMET – Little Lake Elementary staff have partnered with the Parent Institute for Quality Education to encourage and empower parents to become more involved in their child’s education. Last year

86 parents graduated from the program. Throughout the nine-week program, parents were given valuable resources to help with their child’s education and a document that gives their child a guaranteed

entrance into a California state college, if they graduate high school and meet entrance requirements.

The parents who graduated from the program last year were invited to attend the PIQE Year-2 Parent Leadership Academy. The parent leadership academy is a four-week program was offered to further empower parents as leaders, to find ways for parents to get involved at Little Lake Elementary, and to discuss ways to improve their children’s educational journey.

Principal Amanda Niaves is excited to have such passionate parents at her school. She said it is amazing to watch the dedication they have for their child’s future educational goals and the time they are dedicating to ensure their students are on a pathway to succeed.

CLOSER TO HOME, CLOSER TO CAREER

of stores offer students discounts, validated with an official ID, or a .edu email address, and you may be able to save 10 to 20 percent off your purchase. Ask store employees or check online before to see if a store offers a student discount before checking out.

Save on textbooks. Look for alternatives to buying new textbooks, such as renting textbooks, buying used books, purchasing or renting e-textbooks or using the library’s reference copies.

Mobilize your savings. If saving money is just one more thing you don’t want to think about, you can save your spare cash via your smartphone. Thinking about buying a car next summer or saving money for spring break? There are mobile apps that will calculate how much money you can afford to save at a given moment – whether that’s $20 or 10 cents – and will save it for you. You could also set up an automatic weekly or monthly transfer to your savings account through your bank. Chances are you won’t miss the money, and you won’t spend it if you don’t see it in your checking account.

Make a practice of saving for the

future. You’ll want to figure out the best way to use your savings. If you’ve taken out student loans, you could allocate some of the money to early loan payments.

Private and unsubsidized federal student loans accrue interest while you’re in school. Making a payment can help you avoid increasing your debt load and save you money on interest. Plus, unlike with some other types of loans, there’s no penalty for making early student loan payments.

Bottom line, college is an ideal time to instill healthy financial habits.

Business

Graduated and on your own, now what?

Nathaniel Sillin SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

Fall is here and school is back in session but for many graduates, it’s out for good. If you’re a recent high school or college graduate, this might be the first time you’re on your own. Living away from home and paying for your own housing, food and other necessities can be a tough adjustment. But being on your own for the first time is a new and exciting experience and offers a perfect opportunity to set yourself up for success.

Make sure you have the right bank account for you. A lot may have changed since you opened your account, so consider changing your account to find the best one for your needs. If you are still sharing a bank account with your parents, consider opening your own. Opening an account can be simple and it’s possible to do so online or over the phone – but you’ll need a minimum deposit amount and documentation like your Social

Security Number. For helpful tips, see the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s (CFPB) guide on opening a checking account.

Live within your means. As you begin your career it’s essential to have reliable income and use it responsibly. A good budgeting guideline to start with is the 50/20/30 rule. Allot 50 percent of your income to necessary costs like housing, 20 percent to financial goals like repaying student loans and 30 percent to spending money.

Remember that this is a rule of thumb and you can adjust it to fit your needs. Never spend more than you have, and always pay your bills on time.

Figure out taxes. The most important thing to know about taxes is that you must pay them on time or request a six month extension. If you’ve missed the deadline, don’t ignore the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) – follow their guidelines for repayment.

There are multiple ways to pay your taxes and you can download

the IRS2Go mobile app to make payments. Check with your parents before filing: if they claim you as a dependent, you won’t be able to claim tax exemptions. Finally, check if you qualify for special exemptions like a student loan deduction.

Take charge of your student loans. First, confirm your loan status at the official Federal Student Aid website where you can also explore your payment options and estimate how long it will take to repay your loans. Always make the minimum payments on time, and if you’re having trouble paying off your loans, don’t ignore them. Contact your lender, explain your situation and pay as much as you can immediately while prioritizing paying off the rest.

Check up on your health care. Under the Affordable Care Act, you can stay on your parents’ plan until you’re 26. If you aren’t currently on your parents’ plan or wish to leave their plan, you have several options to explore.

Under federal law, if you’re not covered by health insurance you must pay a fee on your next federal tax return. You can explore the different levels of coverage available and estimate how much a plan will cost you at Healthcare.gov, the federal health care website.

Get ready for retirement – yes, really. The younger you start saving, the more valuable your savings are. According to this Bankrate example, starting your savings at age 25 at $2,000 a year will yield a retirement account of $560,000 (assuming your earnings grow at 8 percent every year). But starting10 years later at age 35 will yield just $245,000 at retirement – less than half the money you’d have if you started saving 10 years earlier. The earlier you start saving, the more money you’ll end up with – and if you take advantage of an employer-matched 401(k) fund, you can put away extra money for free.

Charge up your credit score. Building up credit as a young adult is important for big

purchases down the road. Buying a house or purchasing a car are often significantly harder without a good credit score. It’s smart to start building good credit while your expenses are relatively small. For more information, the CFPB has a database of frequently asked questions with everything you need to know about credit cards and credit scores.

Bottom line: Though the transition from student to independent adult may feel overwhelming, you can take this opportunity to get your finances organized and prepare for working life. Building a strong financial foundation early on will help you worry less about your money and allow you to fully enjoy other new aspects of your life after college.

Maritza Farr of Temecula won second-place honors in the “Create a Prints and Wovens Keepsake Challenge” sponsored

by Keepsake Quilting.

Maritza Farr of Temecula won second-place honors in the” Create a Prints and Wovens Keepsake Challenge” sponsored by Keepsake Quilting, known worldwide for their quilting-supply website, full-color catalog and shop in Center Harbor, New Hampshire, all filled with fabrics, kits, patterns, books, tools and notions – everything a quilter could wish for.

Keepsake Quilting initiated the Keepsake challenges in 1989. Since then, quilters from all over the world have participated in twice-yearly competitions, each with a different theme chosen specifically to inspire and challenge.

Entrants in the latest contest received a quarter-yard grouping of six fabrics chosen to challenge their creativity. The finished 30 by 30 inch quilt had to include four of the fabrics and could have two additional fabrics of the quilter’s choosing.

Maritza has been sewing since childhood. Quilting served as a therapeutic outlet during her demanding career in social services, but it was not until she retired in 2012 that she really had time to devote to her passion. When she saw Keepsake Quilting’s announcement for the Prints and Wovens challenge, she decided to enter for the first time.

Using foundation piecing (sewing on a paper pattern), Maritza was able to achieve the pointiest points.

Her expertly executed design and great use of fabric made her quilt extra special.

Born in Puerto Rico, Maritza, whose grandmother was a seamstress, learned to sew as a child, but wasn’t introduced to quilting until she was older and living in the United States. Baby quilts are her favorite quilts to make. She also likes modern quilts and quilts with a different look, the reason why she was drawn to create her graphic Palm Leaf quilt.

Calls began flooding into City of Hemet emergency dispatchers about 5:40 p.m., after witnesses first spotted a single palm tree that was fully engulfed in fire. Several callers told dispatchers they heard multiple pops and explosions from nearby power lines and transformers being damaged by the fire.

Two engine companies, paramedics, and a battalion commander were initially dispatched to the scene of the fire. However, that number quickly grew to include another engine company, Hemet police officers, police volunteers, and other additional resources after the first

Upon arrival, a Hemet Fire battalion commander immediately implemented the Palm Incident Command and began requesting additional resources to the scene. At the same time a fire official called

emergency response from Hemet Police, due to unruly crowds and motorists who were impeding firefighter’s efforts to knock down the blaze and running over fire hoses that were spread across the roadway.

Police officials later updated that

Riverside County Sheriff’s Central Homicide investigators have announced the arrest of a Riverside resident, whom they allege was connected with the murder of a Long Beach man Saturday, Nov. 12.

The body of 21-year-old Eric Thomas Burniston was found in the area of Mojeska Summit and Squaw Mountain Roads, north of Lake Elsinore and south of Corona, in the unincorporated area of Temescal Canyon Nov. 11.

Investigators arrested Dante Danil Carter, 35, for the alleged murder of Burniston, according to Riverside Sheriff’s Sergeant Walter Mendez.

Carter was arrested about 11:45 p.m.

Nov. 12. He was taken into custody without incident and later booked into custody at the Robert Presley Detention Center.

The cause of Burniston’s death has not been released, pending further investigation.

Murrieta Hot Springs Road closed after runaway trailer damages power pole Trevor Montgomery VALLEYSTAFF@REEDERMEDIA.COM

Murrieta Hot Springs Road was temporarily closed in both directions between Margarita and Whitewood Roads after a Southern California Edison power pole was severely damaged by a runaway trailer Sunday, Nov. 13. The trailer was reportedly carrying a dune buggy that came loose from a pickup truck according to a Murrieta Fire official.

The trailer’s impact with the power pole left the pole leaning precariously over the eastbound lanes of the roadway. The accident happened after the trailer carrying the dune buggy became unhitched from a pickup truck that was towing the trailer, according to Murrieta Fire Battalion Chief Steve Kean.

Southern California Edison personnel were summoned to the scene after the non-injury traffic collision to assess the damaged pole and deenergize the power lines so the pole could be replaced, Kean explained in a telephone interview.

The closure was reportedly impacting a number of commercial businesses along Margarita Hot Springs Road, due to patrons not being able to travel between the closures.

Although both directions of travel were initially closed to through traffic, westbound lanes were reopened about 4 p.m., according

to Kean. There was no estimated time available for when eastbound lanes of traffic were expected to be reopened.

There were no reported injuries related to the traffic accident.

A pickup truck that burst into flames on I-215 forced the temporary closure of the northbound lanes of traffic south of Clinton Keith Road in Murrieta Monday, Nov. 14.

A SigAlert issued by California Highway Patrol at 3:25 p.m., was lifted just over 30 minutes later, shortly before 4 p.m. However, traffic remained heavy through the area, with northbound lanes backed up beyond Murrieta Hot Springs.

CHP officers were notified about the vehicle fire about 2:58 p.m., after numerous motorists called 911 to report the blaze.

Callers told emergency dispatchers the vehicle, described as a small, older, blue pickup truck, was stopped in the center divider and had either exploded or burst into flames after either breaking down or hitting the center median.

Several callers reported seeing a man running from the truck just before it erupted in flames.

The intense flames from the burning truck were blocking the No. 1 and 2 lanes of northbound traffic and forced traffic to begin backing up in both directions as other motorists moved slowly past the blaze.

Murrieta Fire Department responded to the location to extinguish the fire and reported finding the truck fully engulfed in flames.

Firefighters set up their rigs on the southbound side of the freeway to fight the blaze, further slowing traffic on both sides of the freeway.

Trupiano’s Italian Bistro – A delicious part of Fallbrook’s fabric

Mama’s Tiramisu – a delicate and lacy delight.

Nathalie Taylor SPECIAL TO THE VALLEY NEWS

I

talian food has always been a combination of boldness and grace. The bold nutty flavors of Parmesan cheese – and the grace of the sweet and cloud-like mascarpone are just two examples of the range of flavors found on the Italian food palette. One culinary master who brings life to food with

this range of flavors – swirling them on his artist’s palette – is Faro Trupiano.

He established Trupiano’s Italian Bistro in 2004; and it has been a success since he first opened the doors. The combination of his love for people, passion for food and penchant for perfection ensures that his success will continue.

Don’t just take my word for it. Over the years, Faro has been honored

A delicious Trupiano’s special is the spinach and ricotta cheese ravioli drizzled with creamy pesto sauce.

with an impressive amount of awards for his innovative entrées.

About 25 percent of the menu items are created by Faro, inspired, in part, by his travels in Italy.

However, the majority of recipes are his mother’s, who has always been an inspiration.

“My mom is the best cook in the entire world and she taught me most everything I know. With limited ingredients, she would produce these awesome meals.”

Faro stays current with the latest trends in the culinary world, occasionally departing from the traditional. Why? Because there are so many regulars, he likes to give them new tastes.

“Ravioli del Giorno” or “Ravioli of the Day,” is a menu special that Faro developed. Because there are so many possiblities that begin with these flat pasta packages called ravioli, he will probably never run out of ideas. The housemade green creamy pesto sauce drizzled over the ravoili was a blast of color on the plate, and made a flashy presentation.

When my fork cut through the soft ravioli, I discovered spinach and ricotta cheese – more color and more flavor! Diced tomatoes and feta cheese complemented this marvelous dish perfectly. These ravioli make you feel like you are sitting around a table in an Italian courtyard surrounded by friends and fragrant air. It has a fresh, back-to-the-garden flavor.

Trupiano’s tiramisu is straight from Sicily by way of Faro’s mother who emigrated from that area of Italy while still in her twenties. “Mama’s Tiramisu” is a delicate delight that begins with ladyfinger cookies layered with mascarpone cheese, then dusted with cocoa.

When I first saw the inventive cocoa dusting design and the enticing dark swirls of chocolate on the plate I thought, “Tempting isn’t the word. This is beyond

“Faro stays current with the latest trends in the culinary world, occasionally departing from the traditional. Why? Because there are so many regulars, he likes to give them new tastes.” tempting.” When I first stuck my fork into the dessert I felt like I was destroying a work of art.

Trupiano’s version outshines any others I have tried. One difference I noticed was the fact that the lady fingers were not completely saturated in alcohol like some I have tasted. Faro said it’s because they lightly dip the cookies in a mixture of Kahlua, brandy and espresso, then let it soak overnight. The cookies are flavored, but not overcome by the alcohol.

“Nothing is overpowering. We want you to taste all of the flavors, not just one,” Faro explained.

The mascarpone is incredibly light, but makes its presence known by the marvelous flavor.

When my fork sliced through the dessert it felt like it was passing through a cloud.

“The Italian translation for ‘tiramisu’ is ‘pick me up’ or ‘lift me up,’” Faro commented, “so it should be light and airy.”

Trupiano’s Italian Bistro has

really become part of the fabric of Fallbrook; and after so many years in the business Faro continues to enjoy it.

“I am thankful for the appreciation and support of the people,” he noted. “The more they give me, the more I want to give them. I feel that with the people of Fallbrook behind me I can do anything. I don’t know what could possibly happen that would ever make me want to leave.”

He describes his restaurant as a “neighborhood – feel good restaurant.” “The day of the election I had an incredibly busy night. There was so much emotion and anxiety because of the uncertainty in the world, but there was certainty at Trupiano’s – people were surrounded by friends and enjoying a feel-good meal.”

Trupiano’s Italian Bistro is located at 945 South Main Avenue, Fallbrook. Contact them by telephone at (760) 728-0200 or find them online at: http://127west. com/trupianos-italian-bistro/.

‘Concert for Heroes’ at Galway Downs Nov. 11 honors Veterans Tony Ault TAULT@REEDERMEDIA.COM

While protestors took to the streets denigrating the election of the nations’ new president in the big cities there was strong unity and comradery among the soldiers, sailors, Marines and airmen who have served or serve our nation at the “Concert for Heroes” Veterans Day Nov. 11 at Galway Downs.

While bands played, Marine and Army veterans, who may have shared a friendly rivalry during wartime, walked arm and arm knowing they had given their all to defending the greatest nation in the world, America.

“Thank you brother. Thank you for your service,” was heard overand-over again by veterans, their families, friends and area residents at the annual concert sponsored by Manzanita Ranch, and this year The Phoenix Patriot Foundation, Gosch Ford, the owners of Galway Downs and others.

The growing celebration of thanks to our veterans saw more and more veterans and their families stroll in to the rocking music of JD Priest, Tim Moyer and Tom Bray, the Barnyard Boyz, Phoenix Patriot Band, Michael Thomas and Friends, Slow Traffic, Jen Householder and nine other local bands as the evening grew on.

The bands, who all gave their performances free that evening, praised and thanked the veterans attending with some proudly remembering their own military service days in World War II, Korea, the Cold War, Vietnam and the Middle East and enjoying the freedom they earned by putting their lives on the line.

“Thank You, Veterans,” the band members shouted as they took the stages.

Two stages, the Patriot Stage in the new Galway Outdoor Amphitheater and the Kentina stage saw the veterans, families and spectators move back and forth to hear both popular and patriotic songs played by the talented musicians.

Children and grandchildren of the veterans romped and played in the green grass in front of the Patriot Stage well into the evening. Glasses were lifted to each other and those still serving in our armed forces at the Kentina.

Present for the event was Ken

Newly-elected 3rd District Riverside County Supervisor Chuck Washington and his wife Kathy stopped by the “Concert for Heroes” at Galway Downs Nov. 11 to thank all U.S. military veterans and their families attending for their unselfish service to the nation. Washington is a military veteran himself.

Smith, owner of the newly designed Galway Down amphitheater and Kentina named after he and his wife. Smith said he was proud to host the Concert for Heroes at Galway and for his friend Johnny Roberts, director of Manzanita Ranch where the “Horses are the Therapy.”

While the Patriot Stage was being readied for the Barnyard Boyz that evening, Roberts, a veteran himself and a cancer survivor, took a seat in front of the stage to take a few minutes to thank all the veterans attending and explain how Manzanita Ranch and its “One Good Day,” program invites veterans, first responders and cancer survivors suffering from Posttraumatic Stress Syndrome and other debilitating diseases to spend a day at the ranch with his horses to get away from the memories that continue to haunt them.

It is a proven therapy for those suffering from their past traumatic experiences. It is the third year “Concert for Heroes” has been held on Veterans Day, the first during the dedication of the Moving Wall at the Duck Pond in Temecula.

Darrin Isham, Phoenix Foundation Musical Director and decorated Navy Seal, brought the microphone out to those “most important VIPs,” some the veterans in the audience shaking their hands and asking them where and when they served and to specially thank them for their service.

Another special guest, newly elected Riverside County 3rd District Supervisor Chuck Washington, a veteran himself and his wife, stopped by to say “Thank You” to the Veterans attending. He added his special thanks to the wives and girlfriends of servicemen and veterans who support and love their husbands during time of war and peace.

There were several special pauses during the 2-10 p.m. special “Concert for Heroes,” playing the “Star

Spangled Banner” opening the event and at sunset when the entire crowd of veterans, their families, friends, patriots and community leaders became silent to hear “Taps” played by Tom Bray. Hands over hearts and heads bowed all remembered and sent their silent prayers to their friends and fellow brothers in arms lost in battle, but never forgotten.

Other bands playing for free at the “Concert for Heroes” at Galway Downs Nov. 11 included Life Time

Rocker, Tim Walsh, Noizee Neighborz, Joe Gillaspie and Ryan Beuter, Ox Roxx, Shoot 4 Tuezday, Off the Vine and Joe and Bernadette.

Plans for next year’s Veteran’s Day Concert for Heroes is already underway and is inviting bands and volunteers who are interested to sign up or who wish to help Manzanita Ranch to contact Johnny Roberts at manzanitaranch.org.

Barona Drag Strip gearing up for Match Race Madness Elizabeth Pulido SPECIAL TO THE VALLEY NEWS

The one and only local drag racing event that is worthy of the title Match Race Madness, is returning to its location at the Barona Drag Strip Nov. 26. Drag racing competitors and spectators alike are anticipating another round of madness for which there is no cure. This fun-filled, family-oriented event is a time for the young and the mature alike to get out into the fresh, fume-filled air, and enjoy the sounds that only nature mixed with pure horsepower can provide. Fans are encouraged to visit with their favorite racers, to learn more about their machines and asking questions, or even to lend a helping hand.

Match racing is not a new sport, having been around since the 1960s.

In an effort to bring true, heads up drag racing to the forefront of

a bracket dominated sport, Steve Sherman, a no-nonsense racer himself, organized a Ford versus Chevy match race which led to a San Diego versus Los Angeles all-out 800 spectator event. Thus, the idea of 20 plus pairs of racers as opposed to one pair came to be, and Match Race Madness was born. What started out three years ago as a match race, is now a spectacular event.

Holding true to its grass roots, heads up drag racing tradition, the racer with the best two out of three races wins. Featured at this event will be AFX cars, imports and motorcycles. Every ticket is a pit pass, so fans can meet their favorite driver and see up close every car or bike that will be racing down the track. Camping is free at this familyoriented event.

To learn more, please contact Steve Sherman, Match Race Madness coordinator, at (951) 551-5118.

PHYSICAL THERAPY

For many teens, their first exposure to prescription painkillers is when they have their wisdom teeth pulled.

However, this rite of passage and the painkillers prescribed to manage the post-surgery discomfort may be the gateway to other problems such as the addiction potential of opioids.

Morphine, OxyContin, Vicodin, Percocet or codeine are some of the opioids commonly prescribed to relieve pain after wisdom teeth are extracted. While opioids can be effective at relieving pain, they are also highly addictive which is why the American Dental Association and associated professional organizations such as the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons are educating their members about the pitfalls of using opioids as pain control substances.

Who can you trust to help you with your Medical Insurance Needs?

TesTimonial “We never realized how much difference it would mean to have the right medical group on your side. My husband is on Medicare and the ‘Medical Group’ he was with was stringing him along for over a year concerning his health issues. Egregious things kept happening and we were more than frustrated. I suggested we talk to Charise about what we were experiencing. I thought perhaps she would know what we should do. When my husband shared what was going on with Charise she took the matter seriously and moved into action; she even made phone calls to his current medical group to see if we could get some satisfaction. After getting nowhere herself she checked out the groups rating. She discovered their customer care rating was so bad they were in danger of losing their insurance companies that subscribe patients to them. She promptly found my husband a new group with excellent ratings. Come this last January 2016 for the first time someone took my husband’s cardiac Arrhythmia and other issues seriously. He was sent to an excellent Cardiologist who promptly sent him to a Superb Electrophysiologist who found what the problem was.

Surgery was scheduled and using an ablation technique, the Electrophysiologist was able to fix his arrhythmia. My husband is doing much better and I believe her caring ways helped to save his quality and quantity of life. The right insurance group is important and having a knowledgeable caring person like Charise on your side is invaluable.” - The Thomas’

frustration is to focus on the real meaning of the holidays. For many people, they have a religious or spiritual purpose, but it can also be a time for showing appreciation for family and friends. Many families, including the children, find satisfaction and joy during the holiday period by sharing with those less fortunate. Whatever your personal interpretation of the season, emphasize it in your family.

The key to happier holidays is taking control of the season and

personally shaping it to make an enjoyable time for you and your family. Simplify things to help minimize the stress and frustration the season can bring, and instead focus on creating memories you can enjoy and cherish.

What parents need to know about opioid abuse Dr. George Koumaras SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

ent. When a gift is personal and appropriate, it’s appreciated because it shows you were thoughtful and that you really care.

Another way to avoid holiday anxiety, especially the type that often comes with that January credit card bill, is to set holiday budgets.

Have a family discussion, with the children included, on spending limits. Consider paying in cash to help avoid starting the year with those credit card blues.

A good way of limiting holiday

BPH Study Participants Wanted

A Harvard research team reported in the Journal of the American Medical Association that dentists are among the leading prescribers of opioid analgesics, particularly for tooth extractions. The study also found 61 percent of 14- to 17-year-olds who had a tooth pulled walked out of the dentist’s office with a prescription for painkillers.

Painkillers, typically prescribed for short term use, are often taken for years after the initial prescription. In fact, research conducted by health outcomes research company and subsidiary of Anthem Blue Cross HealthCore, the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, and the University of Washington found that more than half the people who take opioids for chronic pain are likely to still be taking the painkillers five years later.

As a health insurance company, Anthem Blue Cross is in an especially unique position to help individuals avoid dependence and curb prescription drug abuse because they have real-time access to records for medication use that many doctors and pharmacists do not. This access means they can help flag individuals who may be getting prescriptions from multiple doctors or pharmacies, or whose refill patterns fall outside of established norms. And through their integrated health care approach, they can share this important information with a member’s primary physician.

In April, Anthem Blue Cross launched the Pharmacy Home program. Designed to help reduce addiction to opioids and other prescription drugs, the Pharmacy Home program enrolls high-risk members in a “pharmacy home,”

which limits their drug coverage to one member-chosen home pharmacy. Select exceptions are made where clinically prudent and in cases of emergency.

As a parent, help curb teen prescription drug abuse by taking two simple steps. First, talk to the dentist. If a child has an upcoming dental surgery, talk to the dentist about starting with an over-thecounter pain medicine post-surgery.

If a weaker drug provides relief, there may be no need to take a prescription opioid. If the pain requires a prescription, follow the doctor’s instructions and take the minimum amount needed to cope with the pain. Next, dispose of unneeded medications properly. Those extra bottles of prescription drugs sitting in the medicine closet should be disposed of properly. Hospitals, police and fire departments often host medication take-back days.

Getting unneeded prescription drugs out of the house will not only help a loved one avoid mistakenly taking the wrong medication, it will also keep opioids out of the reach of children and teens.

There are no silver bullets to ending America’s opioid crisis, but taking small steps like these can help keep teens from being the next victims.

Dr. George Koumaras is the dental director for Anthem Blue Cross.

Since joining the company in 2013, Koumaras has been responsible for clinical and dental policy, dental and medical integration initiatives, fraud and abuse, grievance and appeals and professional review.

Before joining Anthem Blue Cross, Koumaras worked for Delta Dental of Virginia in the dental director role and at Aetna in various roles.

Understanding seasonal affective disorder TEMECULA – The tail end of daylight saving time in 2016 occurred Nov. 6, when millions of people turned their clocks back one hour. Few people enjoy turning the clocks back in autumn as much as they enjoy turning them forward in spring.

Turning the clocks forward affords many people, in particular working professionals who spend much of their weekdays working indoors, a chance to enjoy some sunlight when leaving their offices each day. However, once the clocks are turned back, professionals typically find themselves leaving their offices under a cover of darkness.

Some people easily adjust to less daylight, while others experience a condition known as season affective disorder, or SAD. SAD is a disorder related to changes in seasons. According to the Mayo Clinic, the majority of people with SAD begin to experience symptoms in the fall and continue battling those symptoms throughout the winter.

The end of daylight saving time occurred in early November, and the onset of SAD symptoms is no doubt related to the decreased exposure to daylight many people experience once clocks have been turned back. Those who suspect they might be susceptible to SAD can get a better grasp of the condition so they are capable of recognizing and responding to it should any symptoms appear.

What is SAD? Mental Health America, a leading community-based nonprofit dedicated to addressing the needs of those living with mental illness, defines SAD as a mood disorder associated with depression and related to seasonal variations of light.

Though many people may be saddened when the clocks are turned back and the sun sets earlier

than it does in the warmer months, MHA notes that a diagnosis of SAD can only be made after the symptoms of SAD have appeared for three consecutive winters and have gone into remission once spring and summer have arrived.

What are the symptoms of SAD? Simply feeling bummed out that winter is on the horizon does not mean a person has SAD. Some of the more common symptoms of the disorder include depression marked by feelings of misery, guilt, hopelessness, despair and apathy. A loss of self-esteem and feelings of anxiety that include tension and an inability to tolerate stress can also occur. Mood changes that are sometimes extreme – some SAD sufferers experience feelings of mania in spring and summer – changes in sleeping habits, such as a desire to oversleep and difficulty staying awake are common. Some people may experience disturbed sleep and find themselves waking up in early morning when they are unaccustomed to doing so and feelings of fatigue and an inability to adhere to one’s normal routine can also occur.

Who is most likely to suffer from SAD? The Mayo Clinic notes that SAD is diagnosed more often in women than in men, and MHA notes that three out of four SAD sufferers are women. Young people are more likely than older people to get winter SAD, with MHA reporting that the main age of onset of SAD is between 18 and 30.

Symptoms of SAD may worsen among people who have already been diagnosed with clinical depression or bipolar disorder. More information about seasonal affective disorder is available at www. mentalhealthamerica.net.

Prep Your Home for Holiday Travel and Colder Weather Becky LeCompte SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

The holiday season is officially in full swing. Throughout this exciting time of year, filled with cooler weather, baked goods and travels to visit friends and family, it is easy

to forget to properly prepare your home before leaving it unattended.

When homeowners do not properly prepare their homes for absence during the holiday season, they may find bursting pipes and water leaks upon return, not to mention fire hazards, potential

break-ins and higher electricity bills. Spending just a few minutes on their home can significantly reduce the chances of these accidents occurring.

The last thing people want ruining their travel plans this season is household issues that could have been easily prevented. To avoid ruining travel plans and to ensure an enjoyable and relaxing time with your friends and family, prepare the home in advance.

Turn off the water at the main valve. This action can help prevent any unwanted leaks while travel-

ing. Drain the plumbing system if the trip will last longer than a month.

Shut off all electrical components. Unplug appliances from outlets too, like phone chargers, toasters and lamps around the home, and don’t forget the Christmas lights. This step will help save energy, money and could help avoid a sudden circuit fire.

Make sure to disconnect the outside hoses and turn off the outside faucets. If connected during the winter, outside hoses could potentially freeze and become damaged.

Ask someone to check on the home, or consider hiring a house sitter. This supervision could prevent potential break-ins, and if the temperature drops, alleviate problems from developing. Ask a neighbor to glance over everything, especially if the owners will be away from the property for a significant amount of time.

Set the thermostat. Keeping the thermostat set to at least 55 to 65 degrees can help protect belongings, pipes and appliances from freezing during the absence.

Schedule a regular furnace inspection and tuneup with a professional before departure. Proper maintenance is essential all year long to make sure the system is working properly, safely and efficiently. No one wants to come home to a broken furnace.

Take the time to prep the home properly and enjoy travel plans this holiday season. Find a trusted heating and air conditioning company to help prepare the home for upcoming travels and a smooth transition into the colder months ahead. When dealing with electricity and gas, it is always best to call a professional.

Real Estate / Home & Garden

Why property taxes appear to be going up Mike Mason SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS Homeowners have been confused lately, when they received their property tax bills from Riverside County Assessor with tax balances larger than they were last year. Let me explain.

Most all have heard of Proposition 13, or Prop 13. Back in 1978 progressive California voters passed an initiative which created the first property tax laws of its kind, Prop 13.

Before the passing of Prop 13, California property taxes were assessed like they were (and still are) assessed across most of the country

– values were assessed every few years (two to five) and the property was assessed based on the then, fair market value. This meant that property taxes could shoot up dramatically during a boom period where property values rapidly increased.

The campaigning back then was centered on protecting the elderly, so that senior citizens on fixed incomes could budget for their property taxes and not be driven from their homes, because they could not afford rapidly escalating property taxes. It made sense then, and it makes sense to me today. However, please confirm with a trusted tax adviser regarding how Prop 13 affects you and your property(s).

On the second lower level 1BD, bath, extra room & lg living area.

Hemet $135,000

There are two major components of Prop 13 and how it made property tax predictable. What Prop 13 did first, was create a “Baseline” or a Base Value to a property at the time of purchase – typically for the purchase amount. Then to account for rising costs of government and the need to increase a tax base, Prop 13 allows for the Base Value to increase at a maximum rate of 2 percent per year (compounded).

The second major component of Prop 13 is that it limits the amount of tax that the State of California can collect, by fixing the tax rate at 1 percent. Any tax above the 1 percent is local and must be approved by the voters. Seems like every election there is always some sort of budget amendment on the ballot asking for money for the school, police, fire, hospitals, roads or any other area where the local government wants to raise money and spend it. This is why each individual property has a unique property tax rate – it’s not only possible, but common to pay a different tax rate than a neighbor a block or two away – maybe even across the street.

A simple example Without accounting for any of the extra local taxes, let’s say a homeowner purchased a home in the year 2000 for $100,000. The property taxes for the first year would have been $1,000. The second year the assessed value would have increased to $102,000 and the taxes, at 1 percent of the taxed value, would have been $1,020. By taxing the compound balance the taxes the following year would have been $1,040 based on the new assessed value of $104,040. After 10 years of ownership, the Assessed Value would have increased to $121,899 and the taxes due would have been $1,219. The same property, assessed for the new 2015-16 fiscal year would be $134,586.

Annual review The law calls for the County Assessor to review all property values each year. During a downturn to the economy, like we’ve experienced

just a few years ago, there is another law known as Prop 8 that dictates the County Assessor keep the assessed property value in line with local property values. So, if you purchased a home in 2006 for $500,000 with a $5,000 tax bill (at 1 percent) the first year your Assessed Value probably received a Temporary Reduction, under the provisions of Prop 8, somewhere around 2008 or 2009. In some cases, locally we saw assessed values cut the baseline value in half and thereby reducing the annual property tax bill in half, as well.

In some cases, the taxpayer filed an appeal directly with the County Assessor to have their values reviewed and often reduced. In some cases, taxpayers were not content with the review process and appealed the process and had hearings before a Property Tax Appeals Board.

In most cases, the decision of the Appeals Board was final, and could take up to two years to resolve.

In other cases, the County Assessor reduced assessed values and property taxes across the board reducing the assessed value of entire neighborhoods at one time.

Regardless of the method of reduction, each reduction is only for one year at a time and must be reviewed annually.

Temporary reduction As mentioned, the reductions are all temporary. The baseline is the baseline and even though the assessed value was decreasing year after year the baseline value continued to grow by 2 percent each year.

Once property values start to increase, the County Assessor, in their annual review process, should then increase assessed values to be more in line with neighborhood property values. However, the County Assessor can NEVER increase the assessed value of a property above

Another example Let’s look at the homeowner who purchased at the peak of the market in 2006 for $500,000 and had a $5,000 tax bill (at 1 percent Tax Rate). If the homeowner was aggressive with the County and petitioned for a reduction by 2008-09 tax year they may have gotten the value down to $400,000 and only paid $4,000 in property taxes. The 2009-10 saw further decline in value and the home was re-assessed for $300,000.

Then in the 2010-11 tax year, the homeowner was able to petition the County Tax Appeals Board and received another $50,000 reduction reducing their taxable value for half of what they paid for the home and half of the baseline value. Because the economy has been soft through the 2013-14 year, let’s assume the assessed value remained at $250,000.

However, the base line continued to increase. By the 2008-09 tax year, the base line was $520,200 and $530,604 the following year. By the 2013-14 tax year, the baseline value is now $563,081 and for the new 2014-15 tax year, the baseline value is $574,342.

If the County Assessor were to remove all of the temporary reductions and increased the value back to the baseline value, our property owner would now owe $5,744 instead of the $2,000 paid last year at an assessed value of $250,000.

So yes, it might appear as if your taxes have gone up this year. The reality is they’ve just gone back to what they should be. If you disagree with the Assessed Value, read the fine print on your tax bill and file an appeal with the County Assessor, before it’s too late – they have very strict deadlines.

Real Estate / Home & Garden

Rose Care FUNdamentals set up for spring blooms Frank Brines MASTER CONSULTING ROSARIAN

The Temecula Valley is experiencing a welcome moderation of temperatures, and gardens are showing improvement. However, cooler temperatures and more humid nights provide moisture to the vegetation which can create conditions for other problems, such as powdery mildew, white fungi on leaves upper surface, and black spot, dark splotches on leaves.

Roses benefit from a good rinsing to remove accumulated dust, but be sure to keep moisture off the blossoms to prevent yet another fungal disease, Botrytis, which will appear as rot of blossoms and will usually prevent them from opening.

Completing the light mid-season pruning in September or October as suggested in an earlier article pruned out dead and crossing canes and thinned the middle of the plant.

This thinning will improve air circulation through the bush and reduce possible fungal diseases.

The mid-season pruning and fertilizing will encourage a new blooming cycle. Cutting some of the early blooms now and taking inside for bouquets can help ensure having blooms around Thanksgiving. Staggering the bloom cutting, might produce some blooms for your December holiday table even. That word might is the big unknown; the main factor begins with the temperature again. The average first frost date in this area is about Nov. 17.

Make a final application of fertilizer for the year before midNovember. It is recommended to use a fertilizer lower in nitrogen and higher in phosphate and potassium; that is, if your fertilizer has an N-P-K number on it, the first digit will be lower than the other two. If it lacks an N-P-K, read the ingredients or ask your professional nursery person for guidance. To explain, nitrogen encourages foliage growth which something we want to discourage as the plants go into their winter dormancy; phosphate helps build root structure and

resistance to stressful conditions like the cold at this time of year; potassium is a helper of phosphate and aids in bloom quality. For an organic fertilizer, if applied now, it will be readily available when the soil warms and add to the nutrients needed for that spring growth spurt.

Don’t apply fertilizer after midNovember because it will only encourage tender growth that could be damaged by frost. Also, it will forestall the roses going into dormancy as the soil and general environment cool, daylight shortens, etc.

Some people think Southern California lacks distinct seasons, but we do have seasons. They are only discerned by those with a more sophisticated palette. So get out of the house and enjoy the subtle delights of the air, sun, and the rich aroma of our magically misty fall.

With a moment or two to spare, or feeling the need to get away, or when the day cools down, take a favorite healthy beverage, a picnic

basket, and visit Rose Haven Heritage Garden, 30592 Jedediah Smith Road. The cross street is Cabrillo Avenue. The early morning and late afternoon sunlight across the pass is magical this time of year—it even makes the freeway seem a little bit romantic. Other venues are also lovely this time of year; check out the website http:pswdroses.org/ calendat.html.

One last thing to do, when it gets just a bit too nippy out there, start perusing rose catalogs printed and online versions for that next “gotta have” rose variety. The Rose Society will be accepting entries in perfect bloom in the next rose show in April. Also, this time of year many nurseries and garden stores are liquidating their remaining inventory of potted roses, and November is an ideal time to purchase and plant roses.

RCWD launches new crop conversion program TEMECULA – As local farmers begin to make plans for the upcoming growing season, the Rancho California Water District is lending a helping hand.

The District’s newly created CropSWAP program provides financial assistance for agriculture customers who convert high water use crops to lower water varieties. This will not only save water but will provide sustainable options for local agricultural producers.

Qualifying applicants can receive assistance of up to $15,000 per acre converted, depending on the type of crop conversion and their prior water use history. The District anticipates the types of crop conversions most likely to result from the CropSWAP program to be: avocado to wine grape conver-

Go solar.

sions, citrus to wine grape conversions, and avocado to citrus conversions. However, other types of crop conversions that save water will be considered for funding on a case by case basis.

RCWD received a $1 million grant from the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation and a $2 million grant from the Department of Water Resources to fund the new crop conversion program.

The District estimates the total water savings to reach 3,960 acre feet of water over a tenyear period (enough water to serve 7,920 households).

Additional information about the program including a complete list of requirements is available at www.ranchowater. com/CropSWAP.

Pala conducted its annual holiday food drive that concluded last

week and representatives from both charities received the food today.

“As our team members have done for so many community projects, they really came through again to help those in need for this holiday season,” said Bill Bembenek, Pala’s chief executive.
