Auditor reports $295M in dubious agency contracts

REGION — The first of a two-part contracts au dit report was released last week by the Office of the Independent Performance Auditor for the San Diego Association of Govern ments, raising questions over the agency’s handling of hundreds of millions of dollars in on-call and solesource contracts.

RANCHO SFNEWS .com

The regional agency’s audit committee met on Oct. 14 to review and dis cuss the findings of an in ternal audit analyzing 30 vendors and their contract awards between July 1, 2017, and July 1, 2022.

According to the report by Independent Auditor Mary Khoshmashrab, ven dor contracts during this timeframe were frequently missing information, signa tures and itemized break downs of work performed.

The audit also found the “original amount” field was left blank in 447 out of 1,627 total contracts — meaning no dollar amount was assigned to the con tracts. Of 308 on-call con tracts (only pay for services as needed), nearly 88% were missing an original dollar amount.

The auditors analyzed which vendors had the larg est increases (in both dollars

Adventurous Music by the Beach

Carlsbad Music Festival returns for its 18th year on Saturday, November 5, 2022. This year’s one-day, all-ages festival, that runs from 1pm to 9pm, will be held at St. Michael’s by-the-Sea and led by new managing director, Ahmed Dents. The outdoor festival will feature headliner Monophonics, the psychedelic soul, six-member band with lead singer Kelly Finnigan.

In addition, there will be five local San Diego bands presented: Son of Kane (Blues), Chunky Hustle Brass Band (New Orleans Brass Band), Whitney Shay (Blues), Mitchum Yacoub (Afrobeat), and Sabrosas Latin Orquesta (Salsa). Carlsbad Music Festival was founded in 2003 by musician and former artistic director, Matt McBane.

Dents, who also serves as the associate artistic director at the Dea Hurston New Village Arts Center in Carlsbad which will open in December 2022, said, “It is an honor to be working in Carlsbad and deeply involved in the music and arts scene here.”

Dents continued, “I am very excited for the return of the festival this year. I look forward to seeing the smiling faces of all the attendees come together and enjoy the ‘adventurous music by the beach’ with this year’s outstanding lineup of artists.”

Also joining the festival behind the scenes is music industry talent buyer, Steve Kader. “I’ve been a fan of the festival and its eclectic and innovative programming for many years, I’m happy to be on board,” said Kader.

Current Carlsbad Music Festival board of directors’ president, Bryan Meathe, commented, “Carlsbad Music Festival has been a treasured and integral part of the vibrant Carlsbad Village arts and cultural landscape for 18 years. We look forward to its continued growth and momentum through more frequent live opportunities and engaging community outreach.”

ENCINITAS — A local coffee shop owner was shot and injured and another person was wounded during an altercation last Thursday morning involving a tran sient man who had been asked to leave the business located in the 400 block of South Coast Highway 101.

The suspect believed to have fired the gun, 31-yearold Jmar Tarafa, was arrest ed and charged with assault with a deadly weapon and brandishing a firearm in a threatening manner, accord ing to the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department.

Matthew Delarosa, owner of Ironsmith Coffee Roasters, and Tarafa are believed to have gotten into an argument in the alley be hind the coffee shop around 8 a.m. on Oct. 13 after the owner asked the suspect to leave the business.

According to Lt. Chris topher Lawrence, the ar gument escalated into a physical fight and Delarosa pulled out a firearm that was on his person.

During the struggle, the gun was fired once and Delarosa was grazed by the bullet on the back of his head and a bystander was hit in the leg with shrapnel, according to the Sheriff’s release, which also noted it was unclear who actually fired the gun during the in cident.

Tarafa then took hold of the gun, prompting Delaro sa to flee to a nearby fire station. According to Law rence, Tarafa pointed the gun briefly at firefighters, but then placed it on the ground before he was de tained.

Lawrence said Tarafa is believed to have fired the gun, which is why he was charged with assault with a deadly weapon. However, the department is still try ing to obtain surveillance footage from nearby vehi cles to make sense of exactly

what happened.

“We have two sides to a story here,” Lawrence said. “Right now, it’s really just between Jmar’s statement and the shop owner’s, and with surveillance footage, possibly a third narrative will emerge.”

Footage from the coffee shop’s surveillance camera did not provide a view of the incident, according to Law rence. Delarosa is not facing any charges at this time. Lawrence said the case will now go to the District Attor ney’s Office.

“Being a business own er, you’re allowed to carry a firearm in your business,” Lawrence said.

Both Delarosa and the bystander were treated for their injuries and are believed to have returned home, Lawrence said.

Marco San Antonio, owner of One Day Signs directly next door to Iron smith, said Tarafa had fre quently been sitting at one of the coffee shop’s outdoor tables without ever buying anything since the summer.

According to San Anto nio, Tarafa would also occa sionally speak loudly to him self or be seen with sharp objects like knives.

“(Tafara's) definite ly been outside quite a bit before,” San Antonio said.

“Was I surprised it was him? No. But was I surprised to

hear about the whole inci dent? Yes. We live in a pret ty sleepy town, especially along the 101, you just gen erally don't hear about any thing like that happening here.”

According to arrest logs, Tarafa had been arrest ed back in June on suspicion of felony burglary at a resi dence in Encinitas.

Encinitas woman, 62, pleads not guilty to misdemeanor vandalism

A 62-year-old woman pleaded not guilty this week to a misdemeanor vandal ism charge after allegedly defacing more than 50 cam paign signs belonging to En cinitas City Council candi date Dan Vaughn.

Teresa Conkey, of Enci nitas, was arrested on Oct. 2 after witnesses reported observing an individual de facing Vaughn’s campaign signs with black spray paint the previous day along Ran cho Santa Fe Road, Village Park Way and Encinitas Boulevard.

Vaughn is one of four candidates seeking the Dis trict 4 seat in Encinitas.

Conkey’s defense attor ney Scott Salmu told the San Diego Union-Tribune that his client is “a respected member of the community.”

“She has cooperated with law enforcement from the very beginning, and we

look forward to a resolution of this matter in the near fu ture,” Salmu said.

The Union-Tribune re ported that investigators used area surveillance foot age to obtain the suspect’s license plate number before arresting Conkey. Conkey’s charge, which was filed on Oct. 6 by the District Attor ney’s office, was reduced from felony vandalism to a misdemeanor charge.

One-size-fits-all vs. the mega-rich

Onekey principle behind the spate of laws passed in the last two years aimed at increasing Cali fornia’s housing density is that every city in the state is essentially the same.

That’s why new laws have eliminated sin gle-family residential zon ing throughout the state, and not merely in the most sprawling cities and coun ties. That’s why virtually every street in the state with any commercial el ements is now subject to high-rise development, if developers can be found to do the work.

Eligible for Medicare? What to consider when choosing a plan

Asinflation causes us all to stretch our dollars, the major ity of Americans — including San Diego's res idents — are likely focused on finding the best prices without sacrificing quality.

Health care can be expensive, so picking the right insurance plan that meets your individual or family needs can be critical to maintaining a balanced budget.

Right now — during the Annual Election Period through Dec. 7 — people eligible for Medicare have the opportunity to select a plan that provides the af fordability, convenience and benefits they want as well as the quality healthcare they deserve.

For the 6.4 million in dividuals in California who rely on Medicare for their health insurance, I encour age you to make a list of what’s necessary to have in your plan and then think about what else you’d like to have included.

• Network of doctors and hospitals. If you have specific doctors and hospi tals you prefer, make sure they are in network for the plan you select.

• More than medical coverage. Determine what

benefits are important to you, based on your health status and medication re quirements.

Do you want dental, vi sion and hearing coverage? What about prescription drug coverage?

• Additional benefits. If you need transportation as sistance to and from doctors’ appointments; allowances to cover out-of-pocket dental, vision or hearing expenses; access to fitness programs; or services to support your mental health, these are all considerations when select ing a plan.

If you’re interested in receiving care in your home, consider looking into a Medicare Advantage plan with providers that can pro vide care in the home, like CenterWell Home Health which provides care in the home for those with acute or chronic health issues.

• Prescription drug coverage. Prescription drug coverage is included in many Medicare Advantage plans, but it is not part of original Medicare.

Have a list of your med ications handy, so you can compare estimated pre scription costs as you evalu ate plan options. Some plans even offer $0 copays for pre scriptions.

San Diego County Gun Owners wants to send a message that infringing on our freedoms carries big consequences.

Michael Schwartz Executive Director, San Diego County Gun Owners PAC

It’s a one-size-fits-all philosophy that was bound to create major conflict when it began affecting the often-quirky cities that make up much of this cra zy-quilt state.

One of the more ec centric such places is Ath erton, long a haven for the super-rich, sitting in the midst of Silicon Val ley, a short distance north of Palo Alto and Stanford University.

This 5-square-mile city of 7,060 is host to a major contingent of the wealthi est dot-com investors and executives. Its residents include the founder of Net flix; the head of video game maker Electronic Arts; the chief of the financial technology firm SoFi, for which the modern stadium housing both the Los Ange les Rams and Chargers is named; top executives of Google and Apple; and a host of venture capitalists who got fabulously wealthy by investing early in some of those firms and others.

The median home sale price there has exceeded $7 million for the last few years.

Now Atherton is being told by the state it must create 348 new housing units or suffer major losses of state funding for police, fire department, water fa cilities and other public needs.

But how to build that many new units, enough to house 1,000 or more per sons, almost one-seventh the current population, in a town where very few homes occupy less than an acre?

And how to do that and still let many of them be priced affordably in a city where homesite land alone sometimes brings upwards of $8 million, which would raise the price per unit well above the $1 million level already seen in some other areas with high land values?

Advocates of denser housing often call local res idents who oppose dense new housing developments in single-family areas NIM BYs, for Not in My Back yard.

They could find some classics in Atherton, where billionaire investor Marc Andreesen opposes new

multi-family housing near his home, but in a 2020 es say griped about the lack of new housing across the country.

“We should have gleaming skyscrapers and spectacular living environ ments in all our best cities,” he wrote then, according to The Atlantic magazine. But duplexes and three-floor apartment buildings near his own home, uh-uh.

As conflict neared with the density enforce ment unit created this year by state Attorney General Rob Bonta, several Silicon Valley giants with major executives living in Ather ton began trying to buy off trouble.

Meta, the new name for Facebook’s parent, pledged $1 billion to help stave off housing woes on the San Francisco Peninsu la. Google put in another $1 billion. Apple pledged $2.5 billion and Netflix support ed a housing nonprofit.

A letter-writing cam paign with a spate of fa mous signees spurred city officials to cut out the townhouse part of its hous ing plan, which would need state approval to become official.

Instead, the city gov ernment proposed a pro gram encouraging resi dents to build and rent out additional dwelling units (ADUs) on their properties. These “grandma units” could be fenced off from the main part of large prop erties, providing privacy for all.

But it’s doubtful that hundreds of mansion own ers could simultaneously create rental ADUs. For one thing, they would have a hard time finding enough contractors, plumb ers, electricians and oth er tradesmen to build so many units in short order.

This sets up a seem ingly inevitable battle between America’s rich est city, with an average household income topping $400,000, and state offi cials determined to create dense new housing every where for even the poorest people.

Which could lead to a far wider crisis if the den izens of this posh small city should decide to take their marbles with names like Google and Facebook and Netflix and Apple and Nvidia and move them to other places.

Talk about unforeseen consequences of a well-in tentioned policy!

ENCINITAS — A Car mel Valley Middle School teacher’s portrayal of a photo of Adolf Hitler in the classroom and statement to a student that Hitler had “leadership qualities” has caused outrage and calls for action in the San Dieguito Union High School District.

Carmel Valley par ent Dr. Roy David said he learned from his 12-year-old son that his seventh-grade teacher had placed a pho to of Hitler on a classroom presentation board along side historical figures such as Martin Luther King J., Mahatma Gandhi, Eleanor Roosevelt, and Winston Churchill and that it had been up since the begin ning of the school year.

Roy said he reached out to the teacher to ask about the lesson and requested that the image be taken down but did not receive a response. He also claimed that when his son told the teacher that she was trivi alizing the Holocaust, she responded by saying, “Hit ler may have done some bad things, but he had leader ship qualities.”

“Any history teacher who thinks the most teach able aspect of Hitler is that he had strong leadership abilities is not fit to teach and should be fired,” Roy said at the district’s Thurs day board meeting.

Roy eventually went to local news outlets with his story, claiming that the school’s principal had also been slow to take action.

The resounding outcry led to emails and calls from parents, community mem bers, organizations like the Anti-Defamation League, and national Jewish leaders like Rabbi Abraham Coo per, who called on district staff and students to visit

the Museum of Tolerance in Los Angeles.

Carmel Valley princi pal Vicki Kim and Inter im Superintendent Tina Douglas apologized to the district community early in October.

“While our teachers and staff at Carmel Valley Middle School strive to pro vide a quality education to our students and never in tend to hurt or offend any student or family, there are occasions where the the im pact is hurtful, and we must reflect, learn, and refine our teaching practices from these occasions,” Kim said in an Oct. 3 message.

According to Doug las, district leadership has since engaged in listening sessions with local Jewish leaders at Congregation Beth Israel and the Jewish Federation of San Diego. District staff will undergo anti-bias training with a

specific focus on antisemi tism.

Dozens of residents at tended the district board’s Thursday meeting to share their disappointment about Hitler being presented in this way to students and to demand action from the dis trict.

Torrey Pines High School junior Noa Clar stonfeld described at the board meeting their own experiences with antisemi tism, explaining how many students and adults remain ignorant about the impacts of the Holocaust.

“To me and many, this [the Holocaust] is not some

thing that happened long ago,” Clarestonfeld said. “This is something that we lost loved ones to that would still be alive today, and we are seeing echoes of it through the offhanded and ignorant comments, the intentionally antisemitic references and simply the lack of understanding to this day.”

District leaders have not clarified whether the teacher at the center of the controversy, Tabitha Barry, has been dismissed but said the matter was addressed according to district poli cies.

“I want to make sure that everyone knows that the district does take this matter seriously. We have addressed it according to our policies in the district. Because it is a personnel issue, we cannot say more,” Douglas said.

Next steps

Like Roy, many other community members and parents have demanded more information about the lesson's specific nature, in cluding the image of Hitler in that seventh-grade class room.

The district’s educa tional services department has looked into the lesson, unit and teaching meth odologies to ensure they align with state standards. However, with the support of district trustees Michael Allman and Maureen “Mo” Muir, several parents are pushing to have more clar ity regarding what goes on

in the classroom.

This became a point of some contention at Thurs day’s meeting, as Allman and Muir pushed for the board to establish a new committee of parents, un der the oversight of Asso ciate Superintendent of Educational Services Bry an Marcus, to review the curriculum and investigate exactly what was involved in the Carmel Valley school lesson.

“Here’s an opportunity for parents to have a real say in what happens. We owe it to the community to do that,” Allman said. “If everyone in the commu nity knew Hitler’s picture was on the wall, it probably wouldn’t have happened.”

remarks

Other district officials were concerned that form ing a committee would be premature. Douglas said she would like to gather more feedback from the community, students and Jewish leaders via one or more town-hall-style listen ing sessions before deciding the terms for a certain com mittee.

“It sounds like this is a very nuanced committee, and I was thinking some thing a little larger than a committee,” Douglas told Allman. “We’re looking at training, we’re looking at meeting with our school site principals, and my thought process is, we need to have

Swim teacher’s trial to include older case

 Piazza, 19, now faces two charges of child sex abuse

SAN MARCOS — Two separate child sex abuse charges against a 19-yearold swim instructor will be merged into one trial in the coming months after a Su perior Court judge vacated the trial for the original charge on Oct. 12.

Nicholas Piazza, 19, was scheduled to face trial in December after being charged by the San Diego County District Attorney’s Office with sexually abus ing a 6-year-old child in July 2021 while working as a swim instructor at Callan Swim School in San Mar cos.

While out on bail for this charge, Piazza was prohibited from working where children were pres ent and from being in the presence of a child unless another adult was present.

However, he was ar rested on Sept. 29 and charged with sexually abusing another child, age 7, while offering private swim lessons in Rancho Santa Fe in September.

Piazza is currently being held in the Vista Detention Center without bail and faces two counts of lewd or lascivious acts with a child and one act of committing a felony while on bail.

Readiness hearings for both cases are scheduled to take place on Dec. 6, with a preliminary hearing likely to be scheduled soon after.

Deputy District Attor ney Patricia Lavermicocca said the cases cannot be combined until after a pre liminary hearing.

“The hope is to resolve them together,” Lavermi cocca said of the two cas es.“In any child molesta tion case, when you have one victim, the thought for anybody is that the child is lying and that they are try ing to gain something. Now you have two children who

don’t know each other, say ing independently that this swim instructor did some thing to them.”

Piazza faces a poten tial sentence of 18 years if convicted, Lavermicocca said.

Callan Swim School Court documents relat ed to the DA’s 2021 charge state that a six-year-old vic tim informed his mother he had been sexually abused by Piazza in July of 2021, saying that Piazza touched his genitals under his shorts during a swim les son at Callan Swim School.

In early August of 2021, deputies met with swim school owner Brett Callan to inform him of the allegations against Piazza.

Callan agreed to keep him out of the pool during

the investigation, court documents state.

However, deputies “subsequently received information that Nicholas was back in the pool as an instructor approximately a week later,” according to court documents.

When asked about this by The Coast News, an at torney for Callan Swim School sent the following statement:

“Unfortunately, CSS cannot discuss that par ticular incident, given the ongoing criminal proceed ings regarding Mr. Piazza. CSS would like to make it clear that it will continue to cooperate with law en forcement and that it takes all accusations of this na ture very seriously,” the statement read.

A former general

manager at Callan Swim School, Amy Moreno, said she was appalled by how Callan responded to the allegations surrounding Piazza. Moreno said she was disturbed when she learned about the new charges against Piazza this month.

“I found out that he had been arrested again for similar allegations while teaching privately, and I was horrified,” More no said. “When working at Callan Swim School, he taught approximate ly 80 kids a week. I think the community must know [about this] so they can talk to their children.”

According to Moreno, she was on personal leave in the summer of 2021 when Piazza committed the first case of child sex ual abuse during swim les sons.

When she found out about it in October 2021, upon her return, she re membered a similar alle gation from 2020 that had never been reported to law enforcement, but she had kept it in the school’s files.

In this instance, ac cording to Moreno, a child had claimed that Piazza had asked her to reach into his pants, but the parents had opted not to report the allegations to the police and instead had their child moved to a new swim in structor.

At the time, Moreno informed the assistant manager, who happened to be Piazza’s mother, and Brett Callan.

In October 2021, More no said she shared this in formation from the child’s file with the Sheriff’s De partment after hearing about the new allegations against Piazza. Once Brett Callan learned about that, he told her not to return to the school, Moreno said.

Anyone whose child may have been abused by Piazza is urged to contact the Sheriff’s Child Abuse Unit at 858-285-6293. In dividuals can also anony mously contact Crime Stop pers at 888-580-8477.

Realtors forecast weaker housing market

REGION — Expect a weaker housing market in California in 2023 as an on going battle against infla tion creates a small reces sion, keeping interest rates elevated and suppressing buyer demand, according to a forecast recently re leased by the California Association of Realtors.

The baseline scenario of CAR’s “2023 California Housing Market Forecast” sees a decline in existing single-family home sales of 7.2% next year to reach 333,450 units, down from the projected 2022 sales figure of 359,220.

The 2022 figure is 19.2% lower compared with the pace of 444,520 homes sold in 2021, accord ing to the real estate trade association.

The California median

home price is forecast to drop 8.8% to $758,600 in 2023, following a projected 5.7% increase to $831,460 in 2022 from $786,700 last year.

The California median home price is predicted to drop

to $758,600

A less competitive housing market for home buyers and a normalization in the mix of home sales will curb median price growth next year, CAR said.

The forecast did not break down its projections by region.

“With the market shifting as home sales and prices are predicted to

temper next year, buyers and sellers are adapting to the new realities of the market,” said CAR Pres ident Otto Catrina, a Bay Area real estate broker and Realtor.

“As sellers adjust their expectations, well-priced homes are still selling quickly,” he said. “And for buyers: more homes for sale, less competition, and fewer homes selling above asking price, all point to a more favorable market environment for those who were outbid or sat out during the past two

years when the market was fiercely competitive.”

CAR’s 2023 forecast also projects a dip in the U.S. gross domestic prod uct of 0.5% next year, after a projected uptick of 0.9% in 2022.

With California’s 2023 non-farm job growth rate at 1.0%, up from a pro jected increase of 4.9% in 2022, the state's unemploy ment rate will edge up to 4.7% in 2023 from 2022’s projected rate of 4.4%, the association said.

Stubbornly high infla tion and growing econom ic concerns will keep the average for 30-year, fixed mortgage interest rates elevated at 6.6% in 2023, up from 5.2% in 2022 and from 3.0% in 2021 but will remain relatively low by historical standards, ac cording to the forecast.

SWIM FOR CHARITY

North Coast Aquatics swimmers from ages 7 to 18 enjoyed an afternoon of fun

ski pass and didn’t start work until 4 each evening.

Upon my return to Southern California, I heard that inventor Bill Bahne was developing a single snow ski. The monoski was basically a snowboard (which was yet to be invented) except that the bindings were set par allel, like they were with standard skis.

Legendary surfer Mike Doyle (RIP) was the ski’s main test pilot, and while he carved deep surf-type arcs over mountain terrain, Bahne’s ski never quite caught on with the masses.

Inventor, entrepre neur, athlete Tom Simms made surfing on snow a reality for millions around the world after he made a single ski with bindings mimicking a surfing stance.

I took up snowboard ing for a time after being gifted a snowboard in the late ’80s by surfing legend Joel Tudor. After a few at tempts on a hardpacked local mountain, however, I suffered a debilitating

relay Sept. 17, racing to raise money for Kathy’s Legacy, a Carlsbad nonprofit serving children and pets impacted by domestic violence. NCA raised and donated $1,800 to Kathy’s Legacy.

shoulder injury caused by repeated falls on a surface so frozen, I could nearly see my reflection in it.

My collisions hurt, but I soon recovered. I hope that the young woman I plowed into while racing out of con trol down the mountain was as fortunate as I was. Sorry.

While I didn’t contin ue snowboarding, the sport did me the favor of return ing me to the ocean, where a mistimed turn places you gently down into water, rather than slamming you onto ice.

Still, when I look to the east after a cold winter storm, and see the moun tains wearing white caps while the ocean is torn up after being pelted by wind and rain, I think about tak ing a drive to higher eleva tions again.

We live in a wonderful world, don’t we.

Cutting edge just doesn’t cut it for me

Iknow

it would have hurt his feelings if I had laughed out loud.

So I didn’t — but I wanted to.

A 20-something cell phone guy was trying to make me glad that I had to upgrade, even though the “new” phone was badly misbehaving. And because they decided it had to be bigger, it now falls out of my purse and pocket.

I innocently said to him, “Could I please just get another like the one I had? I loved that phone.”

His eyes got wide and his face took on a look of absolute horror and disbe lief. “Well, no!” he gasped. “That would be using old technology!”

Old technology. Two entire years old. Hmmmm. Yeah, what a seditious and distasteful thing for me to even consider.

But the real epipha ny was that he truly and simply was not capable of grasping why anyone would want to stick with technology that was a few years old.

As bright as he may be, it was absolutely, pos itively astounding to him that anyone would not be panting to have the most cutting-edge bells and whistles.

I’ve never really been a bells and whistles kind of gal. No, I don’t want to churn my own butter, but my home is decorated with real and fake antiques. I like big band music as much as Adam Levine. I miss my old refrigerator.

I can manage new technology. I’m just not convinced I should have to. My age plays into this, I know, but that is not the only reason I was content with “old” technology.

It is beginning to look as though upcoming gener ations have lost the ability to be content with some thing that meets their needs and doesn’t break down. I believe they con sider “glitches” as paths to the next fabulous dis covery. If something just works, it means that we haven’t asked enough of it.

I suspect this is the map to the future, but I am here to tell you, being in the midst of it will age you faster than a tanning bed with baby oil.

I expect I will some day be a member of the “vintage phone” club, which meets to show off refurbished, mint-condi tion flip phones painted candy-apple red.

Local officials react to uproar over queer Halloween event

ENCINITAS — Local officials are reacting to an unfolding uproar in Encin itas over a school district's decision to post an online flyer advertising a queer Halloween party.

Last week, parents at the Encinitas Unified School District organized a protest after an adver tisement for Boo Bash, the “queerest free Halloween party for youth and fami lies,” on the school district’s website via PeachJar, a dig ital hub for events and com munications.

The event, scheduled for Oct. 29, will be hosted by TransFamily Support Services and is being spon sored by several LGBTQ+ organizations, including Rich’s San Diego, a popular gay nightclub in downtown San Diego, and Align Sur gical Associates, a gender reassignment surgery pro gram.

Some controversy per sists over the school dis trict’s association with the event. The director of TransFamily Support Ser vices told NBC 7 that the ad vertisement wouldn’t have appeared on the PeachJar platform without the dis trict’s permission.

The district released a statement last week claim ing that Boo Bash was pulled from PeachJar three weeks ago because it did not meet approval criteria, but declined to comment any further.

Last week, Supervisor Terra Lawson-Remer took to social media to express her outrage over local back lash to the Boo Bash event.

“The parents in my home school district (En cinitas Union) protesting the Halloween Drag Show should be ashamed of them selves for pushing hate and intolerance on all of us. This kind of bigotry has no

place in our community.

Trans kids: I see you, I love you, you are welcome here,” Lawson-Remer wrote in a Twitter post. “My threeyear-old and I will be at Boo Bash — queerest free Hal loween party for youth and families! Hope to see y’all there!”

Assemblywoman Ta sha Boerner-Horvath (D-Encinitas) echoed Law son-Remer’s comments in a statement provided to The Coast News.

“Our communities here in Encinitas and La Costa overwhelmingly welcome and support our LGBTQIA+ members,” Boerner-Hor vath said. “This manufac tured controversy stemmed from largely out-of-town, ho mophobic extremists intent on dividing us. They failed — if they had any shame, they’d be ashamed.

“While EUSD did not host this event, district staff and parents fully appreci ate the need to create in clusive, supportive environ

New fiber system to bring fast internet to Escondido

ESCONDIDO — An international, privately owned telecom company is set to install a citywide fiber communications system that will provide more residents access to internet services.

In late September, the Escondido City Council ap proved a right-of-way en croachment agreement with SiFi Networks to allow for the installation of the new system.

SiFi funds, builds and operates open access fiber networks across the United States. The company’s busi ness model installs fiber along every public street at no cost to the city, including Escondido.

According to Deputy Director of Economic De velopment Jennifer Schoe neck, the city’s current fiber networks have been piece mealed together but every thing would be connected under the new SiFi system.

“They are using the latest technology infra structure for the city so that

we’re wired for the future,” Schoeneck said.

SiFi has been install ing fiber systems across the globe since 2014, however it is relatively new to Califor nia.

In addition to install ing new fiber systems that provide more internet ac cess, SiFi offers a subsidized internet access program called FiberCity Aid which currently offers

Gigabyte speed inter net service for as low as $30 per month to qualifying households. The company will also provide fiber ac cess to city facilities at a re duced rate.

Allowing SiFi to build the citywide fiber commu nications system also aligns with both the city’s and SANDAG’s efforts to ad dress the “digital divide” and provide greater broad band access to everyone.

“There are a lot of rea sons why digital divides exist, but we really want to understand what’s happen ing,” Schoeneck said.

ments for all of our youth. We celebrate our diversity here in North County, espe cially because it is the fami ly-friendly thing to do.”

Councilman Tony Kranz also weighed on the controversy, which he called “frustrating” and potentially painful to trans gender students and their families.

“The frustrating thing here is the sensationaliza tion of anything and ev erything when it comes to controversial issues like LGBTQ+ and race,” said Councilman Tony Kranz. “The reality is that the school district had little to do with that event, and it got spun out of control, and people reacted without hav ing all the information they needed.

“My understanding of how it went is from the statement the superinten dent made online. Based upon that explanation, peo ple got it flat wrong. When ever it’s anything to do with

controversial matters, it’s clear that people react with out all the information that they need.”

In addition to being an unjustified overreaction, Kranz warned that the backlash to Boo Bash could harm LGBTQ+ youth, for whom such events might hold significance.

“I have no issues with a private event organized for families of LGBTQ+ chil dren,” Kranz said. “I’m not going to criticize parents who want to decide to par ticipate in events like this. This was not even an event hosted by the school dis trict.

“But when the mob gets moving on things like this, and the usual media outlets propagandize about the is sue, it can really cause some pain and trauma to people in these disfavored groups, and that is to the detriment of not only our community but our country.”

released a statement re garding the incident, at tempting to dispel misin formation surrounding the school’s involvement with Boo Bash.

“I have been saddened to see how our district has recently been portrayed in the media,” Grey said. “I know many of you have also reached out with these con cerns. Unfortunately, there has been inaccurate infor mation spread via television and social media. EUSD is not hosting the event. This is NOT a district event.”

The superintendent not ed that while a EUSD staff member had posted the flier to the PeachJar platform, this had been done without following the district’s cri teria for approving fliers.

“Although this flier was approved in error, and we regret this mistake, we are especially saddened that the situation has negatively impacted families of gen der-diverse children,” Grey said. “It is our intention to

always be safe and inclusive spaces for all children and families. EUSD continues to be steadfast in our com mitment to be a supportive district for all students re gardless of race, ethnici ty, linguistic background, economic class, religion, gender, sexual orientation, and physical and cognitive ability.”

The Coast News reached out to numerous public officials and elector al candidates for this story for comment, however, the majority declined.

One North County elected official, who insist ed on anonymity due to fear of retaliation, said, “The question is not about re specting trans rights or re specting trans children; the question is why are we sex ualizing children through events sponsored by adult nightclubs?”

Last week, Brittany Mayer, a school district par ent who appeared on Fox News to lambast the flyer and the school’s supposed involvement with the queer Halloween party, spoke during a school board meet ing, ripping into district of ficials.

“What is it about a grown man, costumed in a sparkly bra with aug mented boobs busting out, a leather miniskirt barely covering his twerking a-with duct tape on his front while spreading his fish-net ted legs as he writhes on the ground, grinding his groin next to a minor, fam ily-friendly,” Mayer asked the board before demand ing an apology.

“You all played the ac tivist pimp for Align Surgi cal center and for a 21-plus gay bar. It makes you groom ers and activist pimps, and we won’t have those sitting on a school board that over sees the education of our children.”

Ocean Creek to bring 295 apartments near Fire Mountain

By Samantha Nelson OCEANSIDE — In the next few years, a 19-acre va cant lot neighboring the Fire Mountain residential area will be home to a 295-unit apartment complex with a handful of retail options.

The Oceanside Plan ning Commission on Oct. 10 approved the development of Ocean Creek, a residen tial project with apartments ranging from studio to three bedrooms and 30 dwelling units reserved for affordable housing.

The project will be de veloped on a 13-acre grad ing pad, leaving the remain ing six acres primarily open space with some frontage area.

Although the project submitted a density bonus application, which by state law would allow a project to surpass local jurisdictional density limits if affordable housing is provided, the project opted not to increase the number of apartments beyond what local zoning allows.

Developer JPI did not request additional incen tives or waivers as part of its

density bonus application. However, the project did opt for smaller parking require ments under California's density bonus law.

Under local require ments, a sizeable project would require 570 parking

spaces, and the California density bonus law drops that requirement to 374 spots.

Ocean Creek developers have asked for 476 parking spaces, with 10 reserved for its groundfloor retail op tions.

Developers explained that the apartment complex would be transit-oriented given its location right next to the Crouch Street Sprint er Station and access to local bus routes.

According to staff, the project meets many goals the city has already estab lished for future develop ment.

City Planner Stefanie Cervantes said the project meets the purposes of the General Plan’s Energy and Climate Action Element: the project accommodates growth within an already urbanized area, it is consis tent with the city’s Smart and Sustainable Corridor Plan, and it preserves and enhances local natural hab itat of the nearby Loma Alta Creek.

Cervantes also pointed out that the project helps add to the city’s housing sup ply.

“The project provides additional rental housing

stock within the city and is within the transit-oriented area that is served by the nearby Sprinter line and local bus routes,” Cervant es told the city's planners. “The project helps the city meet the Regional Housing Needs Assessment, which assumes that the city will experience a demand of over 5,000 new units over the next eight years.”

Short-term rental hous ing will also be off-limits at Ocean Creek.

“It’s a great project for housing,” said Commission er Louise Balma.

The developer also ar

gued that the project would help alleviate the homeless encampments and activity in and around the vacant lot where the project would take over.

Despite the several box es the project checks, many residents of Fire Mountain remain concerned that Ocean Creek will change the community’s character and worsen existing issues with local traffic.

The project proposes to connect the currently deadend road of South Oceanside Boulevard, a completely dif ferent road that runs paral lel to Oceanside Boulevard, to Crouch Street with a left turn lane to get onto South Oceanside Boulevard from Crouch.

This newly-connected road, according to devel opers, would provide an al ternative access road to the freeway and further west along Oceanside Boulevard, away from the Crouch and Oceanside Boulevard inter section.

Residents are still wor ried about traffic effects going south along Crouch Street and through Fire Mountain neighborhoods past Lincoln Middle and Palmquist Elementary schools to get to Walmart and other large department stores.

“It will cause danger to and from Palmquist and Lincoln,” said Patsy Downs, a long-time Fire Mountain resident.

A local transportation study studied several inter sections and street segments near the project throughout the neighborhood and found that only 15% or 461 trips will travel into and from the Fire Mountain neighbor hood, which isn’t considered a significant increase by lo cal traffic standards.

Commissioners ap proved the project in a 4-1 vote. Commissioner Jeff Symons refused to support the project because the ef fects of cut-through traffic through Fire Mountain to stores like Walmart and state Route 78 weren’t stud ied extensively enough.

Police ID Vista homicide victim

VISTA — Authorities on Monday publicly identi fied a woman fatally assault ed last week in Vista.

Deputies responding to a report of a disturbance found Mayra Mejia, 41, suf fering from traumatic inju ries to her upper body in the 1200 block of South Santa Fe Avenue shortly before 8 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 12, accord ing to the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department.

Paramedics took to the Fallbrook resident to a hos pital, where she was pro nounced dead, Lt. Chris Stef fen said. Her death has been ruled a homicide, though the exact cause remains under investigation, according to sheriff’s officials.

A suspect in the case has been identified, but that name has been withheld “for investigative reasons,” the lieutenant said.

OPD: School threat likely ‘swatting’

OCEANSIDE — Stu dents in three neighbor ing schools were put on lockdown on Friday fol lowing a purported "swat ting" call to the police relaying a threat at one of the schools.

Oceanside police re ceived a call around 11 a.m. on Friday, Oct. 14, about an unsubstantiated threat at Jefferson Mid dle School. In response, the nearby campuses of Mission Elementary School, Adult Transition Program and the Oceans ide Unified district office were put on lockdown while police investigated the threat.

According to Oceans ide Unified Communi cations Director Donald Bendz, police believe the call was phony.

“They believe (Fri day’s) call is part of a nationwide trend known as ‘swatting,’ which is a false report of violence at a school,” Bendz told The Coast News via email. “We are grateful that OPD found no threat.”

Law enforcement across the country have seen an uptick in swat ting calls. Several schools in Southern California, including Oceanside and several Orange County schools, and the Bay Area have recently fallen vic tim to swatting calls as well.

Swatting calls dis rupt schools in session and stoke fear throughout the community. Swatting is also viewed as a crim inal harassment tactic where a fake crisis call prompts emergency ser vices to respond to a vic tim, putting them in po tential danger.

If every person takes one small step toward being more conscientious of the environment, the collective effort will change the planet.

SANDAG reports rise in violent crimes but fewer property crimes

REGION — While overall crime remains low er than in previous years, the San Diego region has experienced the highest mid-year violent crime rates in a decade, according to SANDAG’s mid-year crime report released on Friday.

The report by SAN DAG’s criminal justice re search division, “Crime in the San Diego Region Mid-Year 2022 Statistics,” shows violent crimes, such as homicides and robberies, increased by 4% and 15%, respectively, across San Di ego County when compared to 2021.

According to the re port, aggravated assaults, representing about twothirds of violent crimes re ported to law enforcement in any given year, were the second-highest reported since 2012.

“While these mid-year crime statistics are still relatively low compared to historic highs, we are see ing some increases that the community should be aware of,” said Dr. Cynthia Burke, SANDAG’s senior director of data science. “We know that only about two in ev ery five violent crimes and

one in every three property crimes are reported to law enforcement. The cost of victimization is more than monetary, and it is import ant that we all work togeth er as our communities face a number of different chal lenges coming out of the pandemic, which has affect ed us all in myriad ways.”

Property crime rates were 2% lower in the first half of 2022 compared to the first half of 2021 and 5% lower compared to the first half of 2018. A total of 26,448 property crimes were reported between Jan uary and June 2022, an av erage of 146 per day.

Other notable findings in the SANDAG report in clude the following:

In homicide cases where motive could be de termined, the most common motive was an argument (63%);

16% of robberies and 15% of aggravated assaults involved the use of a fire arm;

Reported domestic vio lence was down 4%;

Motor vehicle theft increased 4%, the sec ond-highest number since 2012;

While reported larce

nies were down overall, theft of motor vehicle parts was up 12% compared to the first six months of 2021;

Burglaries increased by 10% in the first half of 2022, resulting from a 19% increase in non-residential burglaries and a 2% de crease in residential bur glaries.

SANDAG’s mid-year and annual crime reports are based on crime data from every relevant law enforcement agency every month.

For North County cit ies, Encinitas property and violent crimes dropped 4% and 13%, respectively, and overall crime has decreased 5% since last year. Howev er, compared to 2018, the city's overall crime rate has risen 6%, the report shows, with property crimes up 7% and violent crimes down 2% over the last four years.

Since 2021, property crimes in Solana Beach have increased 29%, and the city's overall crime rate has increased by 27%, ac cording to the report. The city’s southern neighbor Del Mar saw property crimes surge by 30% and violent

Carlsbad unveils plans to slow speeds on Tamarack

 Residents, city officials discuss safety concerns

CARLSBAD — More than 50 residents attend ed a traffic safety work shop with the city’s trans portation department on Oct. 12 at Valley Middle School.

City officials gave an overview of temporary and long-term plans to address speed and safety concerns, while residents provided feedback and suggestions after seeking help for months.

The issue of traffic safety exploded locally after the tragic death of a 35-year-old Carlsbad woman in August.

Christine Embree was riding an e-bike on Aug. 7 with her infant daughter, Delilah, when she was struck by a 42-year-old woman driving a Toyota 4-Runner at the intersec tion of Basswood Avenue and Valley Street.

Embree, known to friends as “Chawky,” died the following day, but her 16-month-old child sur vived without injury de spite being thrown from the e-bike.

One week later, an other cyclist, Eric Burns of Solana Beach, was killed on Palomar Airport Road.

The city declared a state of emergency on e-bikes and traffic safe ty on Aug. 23 to free up funds to address the is sue.

“You live in this com munity, and we want to hear your experience,” consultant Kim Hyshka told the audience. “We will better understand from you.”

Hyshka said the top priority is to reduce the speed from Skyline Road to Adams Street, and city staffers also presented a schematic and video of the proposed measures, including speed cushions and raised crosswalks at roughly 400-feet inter

vals.

Tom Frank, the city’s transportation director, said research shows with the installation of speed cushions, speeds drop be tween 4 to 8 mph.

Residents still voiced their concerns about the new traffic safety light (or Hawk light) at the intersection of Valley Street and Tamarack Av enue. Jason Oziel said during the peak drop-off and pick-up hours at Val ley Middle School, the light is inadequate and an “abomination.”

Oziel and others chid ed the city’s decision to install the Hawk light but also called into question its effectiveness in man aging traffic or improving safety since many motor ists may be confused by the yellow and red-light combinations.

Residents also said the size of the light poles and bulbouts are causing vehicles to make wider turns into oncoming traf fic.

“We’re finally at the point where something meaningful might hap pen,” Oziel said.

The meeting also had breakout sessions with residents suggesting var ious solutions and ideas for the city, including roundabouts, speed cush ions and many others.

The city will collect the data and incorporate what it can for its longterm planning, which Frank said would take be tween two to three years.

Still, much of the au dience was pleased with the forward movement on the issue, although concerns remain with the light.

“I think it went real ly well, and Tom sounds great,” said resident Christine Rosenthal, who lives near light. “We should’ve had this meet ing before tearing up the streets and making it ugly. It’s the residents who know how fast people are going.

“I think Tom Frank seems like a great person, and I trust him.”

Padres peaking after Mount Melvin erupts

sports talk

paris

Leadership is some thing that is hard to explain but easy to recognize.

The Padres have it in abundance and it’s among the reasons they’re in the National League Champion ship Series after slaying two 100-win teams in the Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Mets.

Third baseman Manny Machado, of course, is the Padres’ alpha dog between the lines. Yet Machado reserves the title of “cap tain” to someone who would struggle to smack a fastball or squat behind the plate.

Manager Bob Melvin, please take a bow.

In Machado’s eyes, Melvin had a firm grip on the helm of a ship that en countered rough seas. In a season that had its share of white caps, Melvin never tapped out.

The Padres were 5545 through 100 games, 11½ games out of first place in the NL West, hardly what aggressive owner Peter Se idler envisioned with a pay roll nearing $200 million.

There was the con stant drama with All-Star shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr., after he blindsided San Diego not once, but twice, with his unavailability, i.e., a shattered wrist and a sus pension for cheating that

shredded his reputation.

Add the mediocre pro duction of stars Juan Soto, Josh Hader and Josh Bell in the aftermath of their blockbuster acquisitions, and if it wasn’t one thing, it was another.

Melvin, a former big league catcher who was sidelined by prostate sur gery and COVID-19 this year, just kept hanging out signals of accountability and positive vibes.

Then there was the mid-September night in Phoenix when Melvin raised a ruckus in Arizona.

After another lacklus ter performance, Melvin re moved his nice-guy gloves. The manager with an opendoor policy slammed the one in the visitors clubhouse and told his charges to hud dle up.

“Bob got mad for the first time,” Padres second baseman Jake Cronenworth said.

Melvin groused about

the players’ production and interest level. For a man who speaks at a volume re served for church, it was the Padres’ come-to-Jesus moment.

“I think it was the right time and place to kind of light a fire under every body,” Cronenworth said. “And it seemed to work.”

The Padres shined down the stretch and find themselves deep into Octo ber against the Philadelphia Phillies, one step away from the World Series. Maybe the Padres would still have a pulse despite Melvin’s airout and then again, maybe it was his version of CPR that gave them life.

“Very frustrating,” Melvin said after the Pa dres were blanked on Sept. 15. “Didn’t even feel like we put up a fight.”

When Melvin, in his 19th year as a big league manager, quit fuming, the Padres were equally stunned and embarrassed,

looking at Melvin like a mis chievous child does after disappointing his parents.

After months of being his team’s biggest booster with his calm, even-keeled demeanor, Mount Melvin erupted.

The result was a hot lava of emotions that kept bubbling after Melvin exit ed. Machado called a play ers-only meeting after Mel vin delivered his haymaker and suddenly the Padres were no longer the fighter with the stooped shoulders sitting on a stool.

Melvin, 60, earned his coaching stripes under man ager Phil Garner with the Milwaukee Brewers. Gar ner was the holler guy while Melvin was soft-spoken.

They meshed, with Mel vin staying true to his style, then and now. When the Pa dres finally matched their manager’s conviction that winning was all that mat tered, they became a differ ent squad.

“That’s the responsi bility of your leader, your manager, to get the players to buy into that, and I think Bob will do that,” Garner told The Athletic before the season. “It may not happen overnight, it may not hap pen in spring training, but I promise you, it will hap pen.”

It did and the Padres are in sight of the promised land of winning their first World Series. After an im probable season, the Padres are close to their once im possible dream.

Sports weekend gave San Diego goosebumps

Here are the ABCs from another ex citing sports week end…How about those Padres?

AAA+: The city of San Diego and neighboring cit ies countywide, all of whom never wavered in their love and support of their Padres. Beating the Dodgers to ad vance to the NLCS must have tasted sweet. I have been here in Solana Beach since 1977 and have never seen such adulation. I saw people crying…and 98% were Padres fans!

AAA: Our kids and grandchildren, the families hugging and kissing, the rain starting to fall when the Padres trailed the Dodg ers, 3-0. The thoughts of losing came roaring back — San Diego always choked in the past. We didn’t want to go back to L.A. for Game 5. This night was different than any other. We knew they could. The city became monumentally unified.

AAA: El Cajon’s Joe Musgrove pitching lightsout for the Padres in Game 4, giving his team a chance to come back after trailing the Dodgers 3-0 through six innings. The honoring of former Padres pitcher Jake Peavy, who threw the first pitch before the game wear ing Musgrove’s No. 44 jersey (For those who don’t know, Musgrove honors Peavy by wearing No. 44). This was an electric start to a base ball game.

AA: The sports bars like Chief’s Burgers & Brew in Solana Beach and many others along the coast packed fans inside like sardines. This was a mustwatch game.

A+: The San Diego sports fans, who filled Petco Park for both playoff games against the Dodgers, were connected from the moment they entered the ballpark. They cheered everyone, and I mean everyone. Rob Mach ado, UFC’s Dana White, the goose signs and gear (one fan had a goose assembled on his Padre hat) and the rain! Hell, they cheered the San Diego Padres grounds crew. The fans’ spirit was contagious and extremely intense over 48 hours this weekend. Proud to be a part.

A: Petco Park…The best baseball park in the world and a food court that is second to none. This stadi um likely reached the high est decibel level in its histo ry. This place was rocking. You could argue this was the most fantastic weekend in baseball for the Padres since they opened Petco in 2004. This game experience will live with me forever.

A: Alabama-Tennessee football game…Alabama head coach Nick Saban was 17-0 versus Tennessee since 2006. Label this one an in stant classic after the Volun teers defeated the Crimson Tide 52-49. And remember the name Hendon Hooker, the Vols’ QB.

A: The San Diego Pa dres and Philadelphia Phil lies won their respective series from two 100-win teams: Dodgers (111) and Braves (101). The Padres did it twice after eliminat ing the NY Mets (101) in the wildcard playoff round.

B: Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen…now the favorite to win the MVP after taking down Chiefs QB Patrick Ma homes, who threw three in terceptions and beating the Kansas City at Arrowhead Stadium, 24-20.

B: Both New York teams have winning records: Jets (4-2) and Giants (5-1).

B: The Philadelphia Eagles…Now 6-0 with their win Sunday night, 26-17, over the Cowboys.

C: The Dodgers seem ingly take the Padres for granted, possibly overlook ing the series.

D: The Dodgers…111 wins down the drain. During the regular season, Los An geles went 14-5 against the Padres, outscored them 10446, and won the NL West title by 22 games. Now, the Padres are heading to the NLCS against the Phillies.

at

A: The goose who land ed on the field in Game 2 of the NLDS. Was it the Moth er Goose? Former Padres HOF pitcher Goose Gos sage? Most Padres fans be lieved it was a sign of good luck. Now we know. Also, I would like to give an “A “to the good folks who were sar dined inside trolleys going to the game. That’s why we are called America’s Finest City. The people make the city great — people helping one another.

A: The San Diego Pa dres bullpen…These guys were downright nasty. Mar tinez, Suarez and Hader worked their way out of some big situations all week and never folded — not once.

D: Dave Roberts…Let me preface this by saying I have seen the ascending path of Roberts, a resident of Cardiff, going back to his QB days at Rancho Bue na Vista High School and a well-respected former Pa dres player and coach. That said, Roberts pulling pitch er Tyler Anderson in the 5th inning with the Dodg ers leading 3-0 will be sec ond-guessed for many years to come. I will never be mean to this man of Christ and a good human being. It’s only a game. Everyone who meets this guy loves him. But he’ll take a lot of abuse for this loss.

F: The Dodgers, Braves, Green Bay Packers, LA Lak ers, NY Mets manager Buck Showalter…Oh, wait, that was last week…

San Marcos resident thrives on US Blind Hockey Team

SAN MARCOS — The game of ice hockey has opened new doors, experi ences and friendships for a legally-blind San Marcos resident.

Blake Steinecke, a 23-year-old tech profession al and member of the U.S. Blind Hockey Team, was shocked to learn his vision was getting worse during his junior year at San Mar cos High School.

At 16, Steinecke en joyed playing baseball, hockey and lacrosse, all while maintaining a gradepoint average greater than 4.0. However, just weeks after his vision problems began, Steinecke was diag nosed with Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON), a rare mitochondrial genetic disease causing the optic nerve to atrophy, leading to blindness.

“I got the diagnosis and knew I would lose central vi sion in both eyes,” Steinecke told The Coast News. “It’s just so shocking to expect something like that. I was facing this challenge in the future, and I had this initial shock.”

Once gifted with 20/15 vision (an individual is able to see something from 15 feet away that others with 20/20 vision can see from 20 feet away), Steinecke now has 20/800 vision. (For reference, an individual is legally blind if their cen tral vision is 20/200, several magnitudes stronger than 20/800 vision.)

Despite a life-chang ing diagnosis that caused him to question everything from future employment to dating, Steinecke forged a successful career as a stu dent-athlete. Leaning on his faith, Steinecke earned his high school diploma — among the top students in his class — and graduated magna cum laude from Cal State University San Mar cos.

Today, he works for the tech start-up Clusive, which emphasizes computer and tech accessibility for the vi

sually impaired. Steinecke also has a YouTube channel to empower the blind com munity and is an amateur photographer.

“My dreams are differ ent, the way I interact with this world (is different) and there’s this new normal,” Steinecke said. “I’m in this for life, so accepting all that took me years. I found a lot of success and it was in credibly challenging. What helped a lot was having peo ple who believed in me.”

And dating? Steinecke met Amanda Bauer, whose

maiden name is the same as the hockey equipment com pany, and the couple was married last year.

LIVING DREAM ON ICE

While successfully navi gating his academic and pro fessional careers, Steinecke never gave up on sports.

As a member of the U.S. Blind Hockey team (a partner of the USA Hockey program), Steinecke trains twice weekly at Icetown Carlsbad, deftly navigat ing ice-skating drills and maneuvers, whipping shots into the net and improving his overall game.

Steinecke, who plays forward, broke the ice on his sports career after par ticipating in a blind hockey event in San Jose, which landed him an opportunity to play with the U.S. nation al team.

Blind hockey has some significant differences from traditional hockey. The puck, which is made of met al and filled with ball bear ings so players can locate the puck, is significantly bigger than the sport’s tra ditional vulcanized rubber disc.

Players must also pass the puck at least once, signaled by an electronic whistle, before a scoring op portunity. Goalies must be completely blind, while de fensemen and forwards may

be legally blind. Steinecke, who is legally blind with no central vision and limited peripheral vision, can only see a nearby puck due to the contrast between the black disc on white-colored ice.

Many blind hockey players across North Amer ica, including Steinecke, hope the sport will eventu

ally make it to the Paralym pic Games.

Bill Steinecke, who has been his son’s coach for the past several years, said blind hockey is more than a game. The bond between the players has created a family-type atmosphere.

“It’s such a tight com munity and just being

around them is infectious,” Bill Steinecke said. “For me, it was, I can’t change, so what’s next? It was a change in how I communi cated with him. I’m just a big fan. Where I’ve seen him play, it’s amazing. These are things (Blake) never would’ve done if this had not happened.”

RARE LACOSTA PROPERTY NOW AVAILABLE

I’m in this for life, so accepting all that took me years. ... What helped a lot was having people who believed in me.”

Mental health clinic for veterans opens in O’side

OCEANSIDE — A new clinic is now provid ing more access to mental health services for veter ans, active duty service members and their fami lies.

City officials, commu nity members and the Co hen Veteran Network cele brated the grand opening of its new Steven A. Cohen Military Family Clinic at Veterans Village of San Diego (VVSD) on Oct. 5 in Oceanside.

The clinic opened its telehealth services in March but is now seeing patients in person at 3609 Ocean Ranch Boulevard.

The North County clinic is the second Cohen clinic to open in Califor nia, with the first already operating in Mission Val ley and the third set to open later this year in Los Angeles.

The new clinics stem from New York Mets own er and philanthropist Steven A. Cohen’s $275 million commitment in 2016 to launch a network of Cohen mental health clinics across the country for post-9/11 veterans, ac tive-duty service members and their families.

Approximately 33,000 veterans, 40,000 active duty service members and more than 31,000 military family members will be el igible for services through the Oceanside clinic. Na tional Guard and reserve members also have access to the clinic.

The clinic pro vides a range of mental health services, includ ing specialized therapy for depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress dis order and other challeng es presented through a

Cohen clinics also of fer comprehensive case management support and referrals to deal with oth er stresses like unemploy ment, finances, housing, and legal issues.

Akina Goodson is an outreach coordinator and case manager at the Cohen clinic in Oceanside.

“As a case manager, I play an integral role in providing support and continued engagement of care,” Goodson said. “As a case manager/outreach co ordinator, I have the amaz ing opportunity to work throughout our commu nity to not only establish rapport and a helping rela tion but to build and main tain business connections and partnerships that will provide needed services and support to our mili tary community and the Steven A. Cohen military family clinics.”

Goodson, who grew up in a military family and currently lives on Camp Pendleton as a military spouse, is connected to the military community as a volunteer and advocate and knows the needs and challenges of veterans, ac tive duty service members and their families.

“We like to let people know they’re not alone,” Goodson said.

The clinic offers a room for children’s ther apy sessions and several rooms for clinicians to meet with patients.

There is also a commu nity event space that ac commodates up to 49 peo ple and is free and open to the public.

Marcus noted the dis trict already has a parent curricular advisory com mittee, where parent repre sentatives from each school and district officials can un derstand how new textbooks are selected and new materi als are developed.

“We have to stop, as a district, doing reactionary work. It is not helping us get anywhere,” Marcus said. “I think the point of this is, proactively, how do we get in front of this, so we are train ing, educating, growing? That is the work that needs to get done, is the proactive work.”

crime rate has increased by 21% since 2018. Carlsbad saw an 18% increase in vi olent crimes, and property crimes grew by 2% com pared to last year’s statistics.

In San Marcos, violent crime decreased by 1%, but property crimes rose by 21% compared to last year. Escon dido’s violent crime rate rose 6%, but property crimes dropped 1% from 2021.

Students celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month

When the bell rang for lunch on Monday at San Marcos High School, hun dreds of students flooded the quad to find games, a piñata, flower making and ballet folklórico set up by various student clubs.

Student-run Hispanic clubs, including the His panic Student Union and Ballet Folklórico, orga nized the lunchtime event in celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, which runs Sept. 15 to Oct. 15.

While the threat of rain canceled the event on Oct. 14 — it would not have been safe for student dancers to be out on the wet concrete — it was full steam ahead the following Monday as the sun shone down on the quad.

Knights senior and Hispanic Student Union president Jackie Olguin

said the school’s Hispanic Heritage Month is a tradi tion on their campus, and something she and her fel low students were eager to organize for their peers.

“Everybody was very cooperative, and we were all just excited to get some thing in the works,” Olguin

said. “This is definitely something we do annually, and it’s something I’m hop ing will continue through out the years.”

and percentage) between their “original amount” and “current amount.” The report defines the “current amount” as the maximum potential payment to con tractors over the course of their contract, not the actu al paid amounts.

For contracts with both original and current amount fields entered, there was at least a $290 million differ ential between totals. At least seven vendors’ con tract amounts had percent age swings ranging from 100% up to 698%.

For example, Vendor A’s original amount was for $4.5 million and the current amount is $25.3 million for “services” — a 459% in crease.

Vendor B’s contract to tal jumped from $2.8 mil lion to $11.1 million. Vendor P’s contract award spiked 698% from $1.2 million to $10.2 million.

Vendor Z saw the larg est dollar amount increase after its original and cur rent amounts ballooned from $140 million to $204 million, an increase of $63.9 million.

However, the total per centage increase from the original to current amounts for all contracts (not includ ing those with blanks in the “original amount” line) is just 5%.

For all contracts, the original amounts were $576,458,824, and the current amounts total $867,334,056 — a total dif ference of $290,875,232.

None of the vendors, ranging from construction services to public agencies, were identified in the re port.

Major areas of concern

The report also states control measures, correct reporting and subverting the open-bidding process were identified as major ar eas of concern.

The audit also found inadequate administrative standard operating proce dures for both contract ana lysts and project managers.

Neither have step-bystep instruction and the procurement manual has conflicting and outdated policies and tasks.

Other findings include

insufficient training of con tract analysts and require ments to be a project manag er; an itemized breakdown of work performed not required for invoice pay ment; an inadequate con tract management system (CMS) and inaccurate and missing information; inad equate information for solesourced transactions; and material weakness with the identification of on-call and sole-source contracts and

amendments.

The second part of the audit, which won’t be released for several more weeks, will analyze if solic itations are sufficiently ad vertised, requirements and documents are adequate, procurements are complet ed through full and open competition, proposals and bids are evaluated fairly and whether sole-source contracts are justified and meet requirements.

A wealth of history at royal summer house in Copenhagen

hit the road

e’louise ondash

We are standing in one of the cav ernous rooms of Rosenborg Cas tle in Denmark’s capital city Copenhagen.

Our guide, Una Stew art, an ex-pat from Seattle, gives us a lesson in the coun try’s history, which includes a long line of kings. Though Denmark’s monarchs go back centuries beyond the mid-1500s, her narration starts there.

Rosenborg Castle was built between 1606 and 1624 as a summer house by Chris tian IV (1577-1648), who ruled for nearly 60 years. He gets a fairly favorable rating from historians because of his initiation of reforms and the construction of things like the castle.

But the monarch also waged numerous wars (a way of life in the 16th cen tury), and the conflicts were hard on the economy. Chris tian IV also lost territories that previously belonged to Denmark.

Stewart is with us during most of our nearly four days in Denmark, part of a 15-day tour with Od ysseys Unlimited, a smallgroup tour company based in Newton, Mass. Her com

mand of the country’s royal lineage (and the language) is impressive, but she tells us her secret.

“It’s really easy to re member,” she says. “Start with Frederik II (who came to power in 1559), then his son was Christian IV. After that, the names alternate — Frederik, Christian, Freder ik, Christian — until 1863.”

And to keep the num bers in proper sequence, the Frederiks are always two numbers less than the Chris tians.

Easy for her to say, but with some practice, this trick probably helps Danish schoolchildren with their

history exams.

Christian IV’s castle is formidable — room after sumptuous room filled with jewels, ivory, amber and gold artifacts; embroidered wed ding garments heavy with gold and pearls; portraits of royal progeny; heavy furniture with substantial upholstery; centuries-old weapons, crowns, scepters and orbs; and Christian IV’s heavily tiled bathroom with “the lowest of three (castle) toilets, each with its own chute to the moat.”

Could this be one rea son the moat was an effec tive enemy deterrent?

Dirty water aside, the

visuals at Rosenborg are astonishing; at the same time, I’m grateful that our post-Revolution leaders nixed all that resource-suck ing regalia.

Sidenote: Denmark’s current monarch, Mar grethe II, is quite popular. The 82-year-old, third cous in of Britain’s late Queen Elizabeth II, is Europe's lon gest-serving current head of state. Margrethe attended Cambridge and the London School of Economics, and speaks five languages flu ently.

Rosenborg Castle sees 2.5 million people annually, but is not the only attraction

on Denmark’s must-see list: Copenhagen offers many other not-to-miss attractions.

• Nyhavn, the iconic, 17th- and early-18th-century neighborhood with multi-col ored townhomes lining one of the many the canals. The neighborhood serves as a so cial hub for tourists and lo cals who frequent the cafes, restaurants and bars.

It’s an ideal place to people-watch, take in the waterfront and enjoy an ice cream, coffee or a beer from one of Copenhagen’s 100 mi crobreweries.

Sidenote: Nyhavn has immaculate, free public re strooms, despite being un der an urban bridge.

• Tivoli Gardens, the 179-year-old amusement park that has more than white-knuckle thrill rides. There are gardens, color-rich architecture and more than

30 restaurants. We’re not talking corndog stands; we had one of the best meals of our trip in Tivoli Gar dens. And when the sun goes down, the lights go up, and Tivoli takes on a magi cal quality. Only drawback: You’ll have to look closely to see the hanging orchids that create a tunneled arbor near the entrance.

• Karen Blixen Muse um, the home, gardens and personal effects of the wellto-do Danish author, poet and artist about a half-hour north of Copenhagen. Blixen wrote about her experiences in Kenya in “Out of Africa,” which was made into the 1985 film of the same name starring Meryl Streep and Robert Redford.

CHIMNEY SWEEPS, INC SERVING SAN DIEGO COUNTY FOR OVER 30 YEARS

Itwas fortuitous for Coronado’s Bluewater Grill to invite Frank and me for a review of their restaurant this past week since October is Na tional Seafood Month.

A fun fact: Those hav ing the pleasure of dining at the Coronado Bluewater Grill will see a striking re semblance to the Hotel Del Coronado when looking at the restaurant for great reason.

The venue located on Glorietta Bay in the his toric Hotel Del Coronado Boathouse was original ly the model for the Ho tel Del. The space offers

guests pristine fresh sea food with sweeping water views from the waterfront patio under the leadership of Derik Morse, Bluewa ter's general manager, and manager Sean Fryt. Pend

ing available parking at Seafourth Guest Dock, one can even take their boat, as well as bring their fur ry pet friends with them to dinner.

For those not located near Coronado, no need to worry. Bluewater Grill has other locations in Santa Barbara, Redondo Beach, Newport Beach, Catalina Island, Carlsbad, Temecu la and Phoenix, Ariz. All but the last two are either on the water or have ocean/ water views.

What is most intrigu ing about the different lo cations is that no two Blue waters are exactly alike. The restaurant changes its menu four times annu ally to reflect the seasonal availability of seafood and local ingredients.

Additionally, both Frank and I were im pressed with the wine list offered by the glass in ei ther 6- or 9-ounce pours and even more selections

by the bottle.

As one would expect, the white wine was just as extensive as the red wine selections based on the abundance of seafood entrees. I started with the Talbott Kali Hart Chardon nay and Frank the d’Aren bert Hermit Crab Viognier Marsanne blend.

We both thought the Baked Crab & Artichoke dip with tortillas chips was a perfect way to start dinner — we were right! Although our server Betty did make a compelling ar gument for the Maryland Style Crabcakes appetizer that also sounded splendid.

For dinner, we both opted for the Orange and Walnut Crusted Halibut from Alaska topped with a lemon caper butter along side scalloped potatoes and grilled asparagus.

This was a delightful entrée with a flavorful grilled crust and tender flaky fish. I shifted to Fall brook Winery 33 Degrees Bordeaux blend for the hal ibut.

The rich flavors of the fish melded well with the blend. This combo was an A+! You know us, we also had space for a slice of creamy Java Mud Pie.

The main menu offers Seasonal Specials, Today’s Fish, Favorites, Greens, Just for Lunch, Meat & Poultry, Dessert, and a kid’s menu. There are sep arate menus for Drinks, Happy Hour, Kits & Plat ters, and Club Featured items.

The Goods Doughnuts Bean Journal

Where: The Goods Dough nuts, 2965 State St, Carls bad, CA 92008

Open: Tuesday-Sunday, 7 a.m. to sold out (of dough nuts)

What: Zumbar Humming bird Blend drip coffee ($3.25) and glazed doughnut ($3) Tasting notes: But tery-sweet, balanced, choco late, creamy What I’m listening to: Shinyribs, “The Sacred & The Profane”

My buddy Justin is a coffee and doughnut* afi cionado. He is particularly fond of cake doughnuts and strongly believes in dunking. Rid ing bicycles with him to various doughnut shops in North County is likely the only reason I ever started eating doughnuts in the first place.

Justin is my doughnut sensei. I should clarify. He is my doughnut and coffee sensei. His expertise and passion are both together, not one or the other.

Justin is who I’m chan neling when I walk into The Goods on State Street in Carlsbad. An Instagram post tagging Zumbar Cof fee & Tea put the shop on my radar.

Walking down the street, I see the lit-up gold “Donuts” sign first and the white-on-white patio tables blending into the white

wall second. I step across the white honeycomb tiled threshold at the entrance and into an Instagram In fluencer friendly cafe.

The coffee bar is to the right. As my eye runs past the hanging menu, it settles on row after row of dough nuts behind a glass shield protecting them from the heavy breathing and soonto-be sticky fingers. Each column has its own spin ning fan to prevent sug ar-loving winged creatures from alighting.

As I stare through the glass, it is hard to de termine which doughnuts want to be liberated and which might prefer staying in the pose for the adoring gawkers.

Beyond the dough and sugar is the open-ish kitch en — enough that I can see the bakers but not so much that I could sit and watch them work. The doughnuts are the true stars of this shop.

There are doughnuts covered in chocolate, sprin kles, bacon, nuts, and but tercream. There are dough nuts filled with jelly and citrus, and custard. There are cinnamon rolls as big as Thanksgiving serving platter and apple fritters so large they must have played baseball in the ‘90s.

Some doughnuts man age to be gluten-free or veg an, or both. I decide to keep it simple. I ordered a yeastraised glazed doughnut and a black coffee. Sorry, Justin. There were no cake doughnuts on the marble countertop.**

The morning service at The Goods is better than excellent — upbeat and smiley, leaving me feeling upbeat and smiley too. No easy feat considering I have pre-gamed my visit with a cup of coffee at home. I’ve been reading and hearing about the difficulties find ing hospitality industry em ployees, but the staff here is pretty happy in their work.

Perhaps they are just good actors, but the inter actions feel sincere.

They pour me a batch brewed Zumbar Humming bird blend coffee, a com bination of washed and natural coffee beans from

ReBru Spirits (con nected to Thorn Brewing) is a dis tillery that “recrafts” beer from local breweries that was destined to be dumped down the drain.

A brewery might dis card beer for numerous rea sons, including being out of code or a flavor consistency discrepancy. Director of operations Kerin Sovern took a few minutes to an swer some cheers questions about ReBru, their line-up of spirits, and their other sustainability efforts.

Cheers! : Hi Kerin, thanks for helping introduce me to ReBru as a brand and the local distillery. ReBru is distilling spirits using San Diego craft beer as its base. How does that work, and how is it different from how a macro-distillery might start a batch of spirits?

Kerin Sovern: So we take unsold craft beer and up-cycle/repurpose it by turning it into spirits. We are at the whim of local breweries that need to find a home to send their unsold beer.

To dispose of a keg appropriately, it costs any where between $20 to $40 to do so. This process has saved upwards of 10 million pints entering our wastewa ter system.

Cheers!: During the

early days of the pandem ic, it seemed that it would make sense that a lot of beer planned for draft lines would be available, but now, two years later, I would think that breweries have adjusted production. Is it still the case that there is always the beer needed available to you?

Kerin: There is AL WAYS a need for breweries to dispose of their beers. We have seen a little bit of an increase, probably due to the fact that we are now known as the place to send unsold beer.

Lots of our local brew eries are creative and want to try and produce the new est and greatest, and some times those can be a swing and a miss.

Cheers!: What is the relationship with Thorn St Beer, and do you have any

other partnerships with spe cific breweries?

Kerin: We love Thorn. They are right next door, so we are able to help each other out, not just by taking their old beer but through community projects, shared events, etc.

We deal with tons of lo cal brands, from Pizza Port, Stone, Ballast Point, Baja Brewing, and many more. We like to take high-ABV products, so the more juice, the better it is!

Cheers!: The hospitality industry, in general, can be wasteful, but this concept of ReBru seems to be based on the idea of repurposing beer waste. What kind of impact can you as a compa ny have, and are there any other climate or green ini tiatives happening within the company?

Kerin: Absolutely. We

are well connected with many organizations here in San Diego about recycling and giving back to the com munity.

We are always looking to host outreach programs here. We have solar panels on the top of the building as well.

Our motto is to do more, waste less, and we try and live by that [through} our constant recycling. We also pay very close attention to our food purchasing, so we don't have any food waste.

Cheers!: For someone unfamiliar with ReBru, will you explain the theme or vibe of your space in Barrio Logan and what inspired you to pursue that style?

Kerin: We are the jack of all trades. We like to say that we are the Wonka fac tory. Everyone that steps through the door is mind blown that with every turn of the corner, you are expe riencing a new vibe.

We have a speakeasy. Our barrel room is quite lit erally a warehouse where we host live music and com edy shows.

Our sideyard is the same — a large outdoor spot with a smoker that drops jaws with its size and the amazing smoked meats it produces.

Cheers!: If you were to make a drink or a cocktail for someone who had nev er tried your spirits? What would it be and why?

Kerin: I would definite ly do our Sazerac. It is the most spirit-forward cocktail we have, featuring my favor ite spirit that we produce, our California Whiskey.

If I were to entertain someone who has never

been here before, I would implore them to get our flight. We offer tours with a tasting of three spirits for $20 that anyone can sign up for online.

Cheers!: What did we miss?

Kerin: I think just the fact that we are rapidly growing into one of the most premium event spaces in San Diego right now.

We have hosted any where from weddings to comedy shows, to burlesque performances to our mostly doggy festivals!

We actually have a pug one coming up on October 30th called the PugKin patch. Each month there is a breed theme, but we are

open to any and all friendly dogs are welcome.

The best way to keep up to date with our events is by following our Linktr.ee or Instagram: @rebruspirits or @rebrupresents.

Cheers!: What is the best way for SoCal residents to try or buy ReBru spirits?

Kerin: Come on down to 1735 National Ave and see for yourself! We are work ing on distributing it out to the public, but for right now, you can come to visit us in-house!

ReBru Spirits is dog-friendly. Check out its upcoming PugKin Patch event — a pug-themed dog festival — on Oct. 20, at Re Bru Spirits in San Diego.

Jessica Waite: Our Lady of Perpetual Sustainability

sion to change the percep tion of eating for health.

soul on fire susan sullivan

One can’t think about collabora tive, sustainable practices in the local food scene and not think of Jessica Waite and her husband, Davin, lead ing the charge.

I interviewed Jessica, a soft-spoken partner, cat alyst and co-founder of the fabulously popular Wrench and Rodent and The Plot restaurants.

Jessica tends to give most of the credit to her other half, Davin. Trained by master Japanese chefs, the wickedly talented and creative food alchemist has been trail-blazing with zero waste in the kitchens around town.

And it’s no secret this alliance has created some powerful magic that bene fits not only the patrons of their restaurants but the community at large.

The chef and the CEO (who has an MBA from Pepperdine and a pre-med background) are quite the power couple, and why there is exponential growth in sustainability in the restaurant industry.

I watched this dynamic duo set up shop in a non descript hole-in-the-wall part of Coast Highway, like a speakeasy with a crazy name but no sign.

Scrappy and avant-gar de, the two were able to clear obstacles that would keep most people from even starting such an en deavor with their sheer de termination and naivete.

The food scene in Oceanside was just dawn ing, but they had a loyal following from the Fish Joint, and word of mouth

spread fast.

By not having the re sources readily available except to procure the high est quality fish, Jessica had to innovate while running the business side. They decorated in what could only be described as raw art deco with a bit of South ern California surf grunge. Super cool.

Ambiance and music aside, the food was always fabulous and fresh and is like a moving art show if you could get a spot at the sushi bar to behold the master.

“Omakase” was a code word for customers to let Davin do what he wants,

surrender your tastebuds, and prepare to have your mind blown.

Checks were brought to tables in CD holders in a shared space with Bull Taco and a surfboard gal lery. Those were the early days that built the empire and the dream, wagering on the couple’s shared vi sion, one day at a time.

With slim start-up money, the no-waste, farmto-table local regenerative movement was born out of necessity at the kitchen porch of Wrench and Ro dent.

Local farmers and fish ermen brought their finest to support this new endeav

or that was helping put Oceanside on the map for its culinary inventiveness.

In turn, the Waites be gan volunteering at local charitable events, collab orated with other chefs at farm dinners, and attended non-profit gatherings that advocate healthy eating and gardening projects at the local schools to educate and promote the health benefits of plant-based eat ing.

This reciprocity brought on a food move ment in town that has gained the attention of crit ics and culinary innovators far and wide.

These spiritually root ed mavericks started the advancement of this con sciousness by giving access to their passion and grate ful hearts toward their mis

withstood only a few at tacks by determined stu dents before crashing to the ground to the sound of victorious cheers.

Jessica sums up the activism with this state ment: “Sustainability is just deeply rooted in re spect. Let’s be part of nature. Let’s take from nature; let’s give back to nature. Regenerative is just reciprocity. Let’s live in community with nature. Because we are nature, and we are not separate. So why

skills that we hope will in spire and spread out and be duplicated by others, and we end up thriving as a re sult,” Jessica said.

not integrate more respect fully?”

Sharing the philosophy of renewable practices was bred into Jessica growing up in Washington.

A vegan since child hood, she was raised to love and respect the planet and all of creation. A non-waste mentality was the precur sor to the habits that built this movement with the Honorable Harvest philos ophy.

If a fish is to be used for a dish, the entire fish would be gratefully used — zero waste — in honor of the fish giving its life.

A longing to ease suf fering and the imbalance between consumerism and animal consumption, the two collaborated on their next project, which was near and dear to her heart.

The Plot, a plantbased, zero-waste, pur pose-driven restaurant, was born a block away from the Wrench.

A non-waste mentali ty went hand in hand with composting, gardening, and recycling done on-site as a grassroots effort.

“We have created a synergy by combining

“Plant-based eating is not just for vegans or vegetarians,” Jessica said. “Most people can benefit from a plant-based diet or adding more to their pal ate, and it’s so good for the body. Food is medicine.

“We believe that every time someone has a meal, they should experience something that spurs con versations, builds commu nity, supports and uplifts the local farmers and econ omy, creates sustainability, and sets their soul on fire.

“We feel responsible for passing this experience and knowledge on and are grateful for the privilege to be a part of this important global food revolution.”

In the past, the school’s seven or eight different Hispanic student clubs have also hosted celebra tions of Día de los Muertos and Día de los Niños.

“For me, it’s about em powering them [students] to share culture, or it could be something they’re pas sionate about,” Bagheri said.

Sustainability is just deeply rooted in respect. Let’s be part of nature... Because we are nature, and we are not separate. So why not integrate more respectfully?”

BEAN JOURNAL

Ethiopia, Latin America, Brazil, and Sumatra.

I have this same cof fee in my grinder at home. I make it French-pressed. I sit for a moment at the low round table with a faux velvet, puffy booth back with my breakfast and look around.

White is the predom inant color and drenches the counters, chairs, walls, and even the La Marazocco espresso machine.

Accents of gold and teal pop, or is it teal with a dash of emerald? It’s hard to tell because it is early, and my eyes haven’t warmed up yet. Stenciled on the back wall, over a commuter bicy cle propped up on the kick stand, are the words “RISE AND GRIND.” I feel moder ately inspired.

The entire shop shouts upscale yet accessible. It is somehow both city yet suburban, hip yet not offen sive, and visually appealing without leaving a long-last ing impact. I had to refer to photos I took on my phone to remember the physical details.

What stands out is how friendly the staff were to the cranky guy who rolled out of bed to wander down and buy a donut…err, doughnut.

I move outside to the patio. I take a few bites of my doughnut. It is rich and covered with a thick, sug ary glaze. I tear it in half the way Justin has taught me and dip it into my cof fee. I see the glaze bleed off and mingle with the coffee oils that shimmer atop the

THE WORD OUT.

mug.

My first bite is deli cious. It is light and fluffy, which is lovely but not ideal for dipping. To get the exact right combination of coffee and dough, you need the density of the cake dough nut. I don’t dip again, but it is still an enjoyable break fast.

The coffee is rich and brewed well. It accentuates more traditional roasted and chocolate notes without going dark past the point of flavor destruction. Around me, families and coastal tourists make their way into the shop.

They exit moments later with paper sheaths containing a sweet, doughy treat poking out just far enough to nibble on with out losing too many crumbs to the sidewalk passing be neath their Ugg boots.***

I’m enjoying my coffee, but if I don’t stop eating the doughnut, I’m destined to finish it without bringing enough home to share with my still-sleeping wife. If I have to order another, I’ll probably order two, and since I’m already ordering two, I might as well get a half-dozen and a latte for good measure.

With doughnuts and coffee, it is a slippery slope.

I wrap up the rest of the glaze dough in a napkin, press the lid down on my coffee mug, and stand up. I take a big sip to get moti vated for the walk home. It is still sweet from the glaze.

I make eye contact with the staff inside behind the counter. Even though they are ringing up another cus tomer, they smile and wave. I smile and wave and might just be ready to rise and grind.

*Is it donuts or dough nuts? On The Goods web site, it is doughnuts, but in the store window, it is do nuts. Full disclosure, I’ve adjusted my spelling in this column several times.

** I’ve seen him walk out of a doughnut shop that didn’t offer cake dough nuts. His passion is unpar alleled.

*** It’s only about 68 degrees this morning. This morning, I saw more than a few pairs of Uggs combined with puffy jackets.

Meet Griffen Bradds, owner of new CrossFit Rebuild in Encinitas

Griffen Bradds, the owner of CrossFit Re build in Encinitas, wants you to know how CrossFit saved his life.

In his mid-thirties as a critical care nurse, Griffen noticed some of his patients were only 10 years older than he! Alarmed, especially when he realized his lifestyle shared many risk factors such as poor diet and no exercise, he set out to make changes.

After trying different workouts, a colleague in troduced him to CrossFit. A few minutes into his first class, he knew Cross Fit was exactly what he wanted.

A few years later, Griffen and his wife were walking when a driver took a turn too fast and struck them. His wife was knocked unconscious, but he remembered every mo ment of the accident.

Remarkably, he found that the movements he practiced — and some times hated — in CrossFit played a crucial role in his ability to avoid a major catastrophe.

CrossFit saved his life and allowed him to get back home to his kids fast

er than expected.

This was the inspira tion for CrossFit Rebuild. Griffen realized he want ed to create an affiliate for those who need Cross Fit the most – people in their 40s – 70s and older.

“Most gyms focus on the younger athlete. I wanted to bring to the community a dedicated gym for the aging athlete who may have let it all go with fitness and nutrition but wants to make the sec ond half of life their best half.”

Griffen joined the Chamber in August, 2022 to connect with members of the community and market his business. His main goal was to meet other local small business owners, get to know them and see how he could help support their business.

“I’ve been going to the Chamber Member Mixers each month – Cof fee Connections is my favorite so far. I met Nor mandy Solutions who is now helping me with my marketing. A few Cham ber members have be come clients already, and I’m working with others, leveraging their services to help grow CrossFit Re build.”

“Saturdays in Enci nitas are my perfect day. My wife and I walk down to Cardiff or Swami’s and meander along, stopping in shops and restaurants until just before dusk and walk back home.”

“I feel very lucky to live in Encinitas and that I was able to find a loca tion here to open a gym. I truly love where I live, and wanted to give back and serve the community that means so much to me.” crossfit-rebuild.com

TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS:

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

NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 800-280-2832 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this internet website http:// www.qualityloan.com, using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-22-912432-AB. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the internet website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,”

you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call 800-280-2832, or visit this internet website http:// www.qualityloan.com, using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA22-912432-AB to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale.

If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

NOTICE TO PROSPECTIVE OWNEROCCUPANT: Any prospective owner-occupant as defined in Section 2924m of the California Civil Code who is the last and highest bidder at the trustee’s sale shall provide the required affidavit or declaration of eligibility to the auctioneer at the trustee’s sale or shall have it delivered to Quality Loan Service Corporation by 5 p.m. on the next business day following the trustee’s sale at the address set forth in the below signature block.

CITY OF CARLSBAD

ORDINANCE NO. CS-433

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CARLSBAD, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING CARLSBAD MUNICIPAL CODE CHAPTER

1.14 – DISQUALIFICATION FOR CONFLICT OF INTEREST

WHEREAS, the Political Reform Act of 1974 (Cal. Gov. Code Section 81000 et seq.) and its implementing regulations (Regulations, Cal. Code of Regs., Title 2, Section 18110 et seq.) set forth standards for determining whether a governmental decision will have a material financial effect on a public official’s interest in real property; and

WHEREAS, California Government Code Section 81013 authorizes the City Council to impose additional requirements regarding conflicts of interest if the requirements do not prevent compliance with the provisions of the Political Reform Act; and

WHEREAS, the City Council wishes to impose a stricter standard for determining whether a governmental decision will have a material financial effect on a public official’s or employee’s interest in real property.

NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Carlsbad, California, ordains as follows:

1. The above recitations are true and correct.

2. That Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 1.14 is amended to read as follows: Chapter 1.14

DISQUALIFICATION FOR CONFLICT OF INTEREST

Sections:

1.14.010 Purpose and intent.

1.14.020 Definitions.

1.14.030 Conflict of interest—Materiality standard: financial interest in real property.

1.14.040 Penalties and enforcement.

1.14.050 Rules of construction.

1.14.060 Severability.

1.14.010 Purpose and intent.

A. This chapter supplements the provisions of the Political Reform Act of 1974 (Act; Cal. Gov. Code, Section 81000 et seq.) and its implementing regulations (Regulations; Cal. Code of Regs., Title 2, Section 18110 et seq.) by imposing a stricter standard for determining whether a governmental decision will have a material financial effect on a public official’s interest in real property.

B. The city council further finds that this chapter is enacted in recognition of the city council’s authority under California Government Code Section 81013 to impose additional requirements regarding conflicts of interest and that the additional requirements imposed by this chapter do not prevent a person from complying with the Act.

1.14.020 Definitions.

The words and phrases used in this chapter have the same meaning as defined in the Act.

1.14.030 Conflict of interest—Materiality standard: financial interest in real property. A. Section 87100 of the Act prohibits a public official from making, participating in making, or attempting to use the official’s position to influence a governmental decision in which the official knows or has reason to know the official has a financial interest. Section 87103 provides that an official has a “financial interest” within the meaning of Section 87100 if it is reasonably foreseeable that the decision will have a material financial effect on one or more of the official’s interests as identified and distinguishable from the decision’s effect on the public generally.

B. The city council has determined it is reasonably foreseeable that a decision will have a material financial effect on a public official’s interest in real property if the decision involves real property with a property line located within 600 feet or less of the official’s property. This is a stricter standard than the 500 feet set forth in Regulation 18702.2(a)(7).

C. Except as modified by this section, all public officials and designated employees in the city shall comply in all respects and with all provisions of the Act and the Regulations related to identifying a conflict of interest based on the material financial effect of a public official’s interest in real property.

1.14.040 Penalties and enforcement.

Violations of this chapter are subject to the enforcement and penalty provisions of California Government Code Sections 91000-91014. Any person who knowingly or willfully violates any provision of this chapter is guilty of a misdemeanor. The San Diego County District Attorney is the civil and criminal prosecutor for this chapter.

1.14.050 Rules of construction.

The provisions of this chapter shall be construed liberally in order to accomplish the intent and purposes of this chapter and the Act.

1.14.060 Severability.

If any portion of this chapter, or its application to particular persons or circumstances, is held to be invalid or unconstitutional by a final decision of a court of competent jurisdiction, the decision will not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this chapter or the application of this chapter to persons or circumstances not similarly situated.

EFFECTIVE DATE: This ordinance shall be effective thirty days after its adoption; and the City Clerk’s Office shall certify the adoption of this ordinance and cause the full text of the ordinance or a summary of the ordinance prepared by the City Attorney to be published at least once in a newspaper of general circulation in the City of Carlsbad within fifteen days after its adoption.

INTRODUCED AND FIRST READ at a Regular Meeting of the Carlsbad City Council on the 27th day of September, 2022, and thereafter

PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED at a Regular Meeting of the City Council of the City of Carlsbad on the 11th day of October, 2022, by the following vote, to wit:

AYES: Blackburn, Bhat-Patel, Acosta, Norby.

Project Wildlife celebrates 50 years

This fall, San Diego Humane Society is cele brating Project Wildlife’s 50th anniversary. For five decades, this essential program has served as our region’s safety net for wild animals in need.

Since its founding, Project Wildlife has res cued and cared for hun dreds of thousands of in jured, orphaned or sick animals, and has trans formed into one of the larg est wildlife rehabilitation programs in the country.

It all started in 1972 when a group of San Die gans spoke out after wit nessing barn swallows being sprayed by power washers to keep them away from what was then Jack Murphy Stadium in Mission Valley. This early group of wildlife advocates decided it was time to bring wildlife to the forefront of the city’s consciousness.

What began as one North Park home with a backyard space dedicated to helping wild animals in need soon grew into a net work of satellite homes, each with their own aviar ies, pens, kennels or other enclosures to give injured or orphaned wildlife a place to recover before returning them to the wild. Everyday citizens were at the core of caring for these animals in need, volunteering their time and resources to help rehabilitate them.

After officially incor

porating as a nonprofit in 1976, Project Wildlife grew into a network of 70 satellite facilities and 600 volunteers. The largest leap in Project Wildlife’s growth came in November 2014 when it merged with San Diego Humane Soci ety. This merger was also one of the most meaningful milestones in San Diego Humane Society’s history, representing the organiza tion’s commitment to serve all animals, companion and wild.

In recognition of that

commitment, San Diego Humane Society undertook an important mission: cre ating a permanent facility for wildlife in San Diego County. In March 2019, San Diego Humane Society opened a state-of-the-art 5,200-square-foot home for wildlife — the Pilar & Chuck Bahde Wildlife Cen ter. For the first time ever, San Diego now had a facil ity befitting the lifesaving work performed by Project Wildlife every day. Just a year later, Project Wild life welcomed the 13-acre

Ramona Wildlife Center, where they care for apex predators including bears, mountain lions and bob cats.

Today, San Diego Hu mane Society’s Project Wildlife program boasts a highly skilled wildlife med icine team, including an in tern program to train the next generation of wildlife care experts. They care for approximately 13,000 wild animals each year.

Project Wildlife exists because community mem bers saw a need and decid ed to do something about it. Their spirit lives on in ev ery volunteer with an avi ary in their back yard, ev ery citizen who brings in an animal hit by a car and ev ery donor who sends a gift to support wild animals.

Here's to another 50 years of protecting San Di ego’s wildlife.

Partner in Aging will dis cuss “Aging Well in the 21st Century” at 6 p.m. Oct. 25, at the Solana Beach Li brary, 157 Stevens Ave., Solana Beach. First in a series dealing with aging in place for North County seniors and Solana Beach’s initiative to become an age-friendly city.

Surviving in a dying market ask mr. marketing

rob weinberg

America’s

death rate is currently at its highest level in 50 years.

Having lost both my parents within the past 15 months, I’ve seen how con fusing the funeral process can be. Burial, cremation, services, headstones … the seemingly endless list of de cisions is overwhelming.

Geography typically decides which funeral home someone works with, and most markets have a hand ful of options. With limited competition, these service providers rely on Mother Nature to deliver them a steady flow of business.

Empowering children’s lives through martial arts

ENCINITAS — With all the negative influenc es being pressed upon our children these days, there is one positive influence parents can turn to — mar tial arts. One of the newest centers, or dojos, is Premier Martial Arts in Rancho Bernardo, with a second lo cation opening this month in Encinitas.

Owner Morris Lif schutz says, “We special ize in promoting character development in children through the study of mar tial arts. Our unique cur riculum helps our students become well-rounded mar tial artists, mostly by com bining Karate, Tae Kwon Do, kickboxing and Krav Maga.”

Krav Maga is com bat-style self-defense cre ated by the Israeli Defense Forces. It favors practical and realistic movements for quickly disarming a foe who may have a knife or gun or engaging in close-quarter, hand-to-hand combat. Lif schutz says the PMA web site features videos show ing demonstrations, as well as photos, testimonials and blogs.

He goes on to say, “Studying martial arts not only promotes character development and respect for others, but improves fitness, as well as enhanc es confidence, focus, and concentration, which can help to improve a child’s ac ademics.”

For adults, Premier Martial Arts combines the highly effective self-de fense disciplines of Krav Maga and kickboxing. “We also teach techniques us ing weapons such as nun chucks, Bo staffs and Kali sticks.

Born in Vancouver, Canada, Lifschutz has spent a good portion of his adult life in Southern California, especially in the Los Ange

les area, before finding his way to San Diego in 2011. He says he began studying martial arts at age 5. “As a kid, martial arts was the only sport I was able to do well.”

Quickly moving up the various levels, Lifschutz earned a black belt at age 12. By then, having built up his strength and confi dence, he participated in other sports, such as foot ball, wrestling and track.

A fun activity for both children and adults, he says, is PMA’s karate birth day parties. “Our martial arts instructors provide an hour and a half of fun and excitement for the kids, while the parents sit back and watch their children being led through several martial arts games, some of which allow the kids to break boards in front of their friends and watch the birthday child cut the cake with a real Samurai sword.”

“As the owner of Pre mier Martial Arts,” Lif schutz says, “I have very high expectations on how we impact our members. It’s important for me to see them smiling and having fun, but we also want to see them grow in their goals.

One way we accom plish this is by each month

focusing on a brand-new Black Belt Excellence Prin ciple (12 of them), which helps parents see the im pact on their children, es pecially when they choose to do chores like making their beds each night af ter participating in the various character-building disciplines they learned in class.”

“It’s a team effort,” he continues. “Forms are sent home for the parents and schoolteachers to sign off. We want to know that the children are practicing what they learn in the stu dio.”

What makes Lifschutz especially proud is when he sees a shy child transform into a confident individual.

Lifschutz and his team have a special offer for readers of the Coast News. New members can learn more by scheduling a free, private introductory lesson with one of our instructors by texting COAST to (760) 230-3065.

Only America’s pop ulation growth rate has dropped 78% since 1992.

So despite the limited competition, funeral homes will need to grow their mar ket. That’s where pre-sell ing the service comes in.

You probably sell some thing else but stay with me a minute. With funerals costing $7,000-$10,000 on average, they should be marketed like other signif icant expenses. Consumers shouldn’t be doing research when focus is needed on grieving and honoring a life.

An aging population suggests pre-selling funer als is logical. This strategy ensures less stress for loved ones, while allowing the cli ent (i.e., the soon-to-be-de ceased) the kind of service they want.

So … how do you find legitimate sales prospects?

A few thoughts:

• Direct outreach. US Afacts.org reports the av erage age of death differs by race. Target your audi ence by race, messaging everyone over 75 (white), 74 (Asian/Pacific Islander), 67 (Black/Hispanic) or 63 (Native American), suggest ing it’s time to start getting affairs in order and save others the trouble, angst and expense. A quality list broker can help you acquire a good mailing list.

• Alliances. Partner ing with financial planners, trust/will lawyers and life insurance salespeople pro vides a direct pipeline to ad vance planners. Test a will/ funeral package deal to se cure the business before the competition does.

• Semantics. Financial planning is a fancy term for professionals who want to strategize and handle your money. Calling funeral home salespeople exit strat egists or long-term corpo real care specialists might make them appear less neg ative.

Stress positive aspects of advance planning. Dress in more cheerful colors. And tread lightly if using gallows humor.

Every business, in ev ery industry, should con sider coming trends. De mographics, markets and opportunities shift daily, requiring an ability to think differently if you’re going to prosper over the long-term.

And remember: Merely doing things the same way they’ve always been done could lead to lost opportu nities.

With that said, I wish you a week of profitable marketing.
