SHE MAY one day be a member of the Monterey CountyPlanning Commission, but it’s unlikely Janet Brennan will everserve as a representative for the part of the county that includesMarina, Sand City and Seaside — unless she moves there.

Just two weeks after the Carmel Valley resident was nomi-nated by 4th District Supervisor Jane Parker to represent herarea on the planning commission, the Monterey County Boardof Supervisors voted Tuesday 3-2to deny her confirmation afterhearing from residents of the dis-trict who opposed the planningcommission seat going to an out-sider.

Supervisors Simon Salinas,Fernando Armenta and LouCalcagno opposed the appoint-ment, while supervisors DavePotter and Parker supported it.

The first sign of trouble forBrennan’s confirmation came Jan. 11, shortly after Parker nom-inated her for a planning commission vacancy in her district.Potter, 5th District supervisor, initially objected to the nomina-tion on the grounds that because Brennan lives in his district, heshould have been consulted on the choice. Potter didn’t object toBrennan’s credentials — he simply asked to meet with her

CALIFORNIA HIGHWAY Patrol officerMatthew Lieb, 33, received stitches in his head atCommunity Hospital of the Monterey PeninsulaSaturday morning after he pulled from the shoul-der of narrow Carmel Valley Road into the path ofa large truck driven by Cachagua resident TomNason. The collision occurred just west of theturnoff for Tassajara Road.

“Our officer was parked on the westboundshoulder of Carmel Valley Road, and he began toinitiate a U-turn and didn’t see an approachingvehicle also moving in the westbound direction,”explained CHP public information officer BobLehman.

Fortunately, Lieb saw the oncoming Ford F-550 truck at the last minute and managed toslightly correct his patrol car, avoiding a T-bonecrash that could have killed him. Instead, Nason’struck plowed along the side of the CHP cruiser,smashing the door, wrinkling the windshield andmunching the fender.

“It was a big truck, so the officer’s prettylucky,” Lehman observed. The crash occurredaround 8:30 a.m. Jan. 22.

While Lieb was taken to CHOMP for treatment of thelacerations on his head, Nason was uninjured, and histruck sustained moderate damage.

Lehman said collisions involving officers undergo thesame investigation and scrutiny as wrecks caused by civil-ians, and the CHP is looking into Lieb’s crash.

Because making a U-turn from the shoulder of theroadway is against the law — and has resulted in manyserious accidents on the Peninsula — it’s likely the officer

$30,000 lawsuit filed over trapped squirrel’s nutty rampageBy KELLY NIX

A DISORDERLY squirrel that seriously damaged theinside of a Carmel home — breaking China, destroying fur-niture, chewing electrical cords and severing water lines — isat the center of a lawsuit filed against a local real estate com-pany.

In a suit filed Jan. 18, Mary Brinton alleges someoneworking for Estates on the Bay, which Brinton hired to rent

gnawed on wood trim and telephone lines. “As the result of such efforts to extricate and entertain

itself while imprisoned within the home,” according to thesuit filed in Monterey County Superior Court, “extensivewater damage to the kitchen floor was caused.”

The damage, which included lots of gnaw marks anddroppings, amounted to $27,729.13, which Brinton is seek-ing from Estates on the Bay.

“The reason it did so much damage is that it was a female

out her Rio Vista Drive home, left a door open, allowing asquirrel to enter and cause nearly $30,000 in damage.

“A caretaker, unaware of the presence of the squirrel,closed and locked the doors, and the home remained in thatlocked condition for one week,” according to the lawsuit,“during which time said frustrated squirrel, seeking its free-dom, literally wreaked havoc on the home.”

During her week-long, rent-free occupancy of the houselast summer, the rambunctious rodent severed a water line toan ice maker, chewed electrical cords, broke China and

will be found at fault. Citations are rare in crashes unlessthey involve drivers who are unlicensed or don’t have insur-ance, according to Lehman, so Lieb won't get a ticket, butif the investigation concludes it was his fault, he mayundergo some additional training by the CHP. Other cor-rective action could also be taken.

In addition, the CHP will foot the bill for repairs toNason’s truck.

“In this case, the highway patrol will be the one that willcover the cost of that,” Lehman said.

Judge: No more water hookups untildesal plant is finished

By KELLY NIX

MONTEREY PENINSULA residents would faceeven more water restrictions if a proposed decisionissued this week by a judge is approved by theCalifornia Public Utilities Commission.

In a ruling released Tuesday, Administrative LawJudge Gary Weatherford said California AmericanWater cannot provide water for any new uses until adesal plant is built to eliminate overpumping from theCarmel River.

Though the Monterey Peninsula WaterManagement District put a stop to most new connec-tions after a state cutback order in 1995, the latestmoratorium would be even more prohibitive, cuttingoff access to the small amounts of water set aside bysome cities for emergencies and important civic pro-jects.

“Anybody who was going to get water through thecities’ allocations would be affected,” said Cal Amspokeswoman Catherine Bowie said.

It’s possible that even those few homeowners whohave water credits to use for additions to their houses

Prosecution, defense face off before King trial beginsBy MARY BROWNFIELD

THE DEATH of Joel Woods in front of Pacific GroveMiddle School in September 2008 was a tragic accidentcaused by properly used prescription painkillers, not a crime,according to a public defender representing Deborah King,the driver of the BMW SUV that struck Woods as he waspicking up his son from school.

The attorney, Heather Rogers, is so adamant about thepoint that she doesn’t even want Woods referred to as a “vic-tim” in front of the jury as King is tried for murdering him bydriving under the influence.

The verbal question was one of many argued by Rogersand prosecutor Steve Somers in front of Monterey CountySuperior Court Judge Russell Scott Monday.

They sought rulings from Scott on everything fromwhether King’s prison time for multiple DUI convictionscould be raised during testimony, to whether witnesses coulduse the words, “reckless” and “impaired,” not to mention“victim.”

King, who was arrested shortly after the fatal accidentmore than two years ago but then spent several months in amental institution after she was declared unfit to stand trial,appeared in court Jan. 24 in civilian clothes with shackles onher wrists and ankles that were later removed so she could sitcomfortably. Her attorney claims she suffers from chronicpain due to injuries originating from an attempted rape whenshe was a prison guard many years ago.

Regardless, Somers plans to prove King was addicted topainkillers and other drugs — including those that allegedlyimpaired her driving so badly that she hit and killed Woods

with her SUV. He also alleges her five DUI convictions inKern County in the 1990s, the last of which resulted in a two-

Art heist website goes online with details of ‘stolen’ worksBy KELLY NIX

THE TWO men who contend burglars broke into theirformer Pebble Beach home in 2009 and stole as much as $80

“To date, no material witnesses have been contacted, andthe victims of the crime have not been interviewed by detec-tives, who only arrived at the scene of the crime scene fourdays after the reporting of the theft,” according to the site.

The site criticizes the sheriff’s office and cites possiblemotives for not investigating the theft.

The website includes an itemized list of most of theallegedly missing two-dozen pieces by Miró, Matisse,Pollock, Rembrandt, Renoir, Rodin, van Gogh and Rothe,with titles, dimensions and other information.

A 1944 Jackson Pollock painting, 46 inches by 70 inchesand signed by the artist in the lower right hand corner, is

million worth of art launched a website this week in hopes itwill help lead to the arrest of the perpetrators and recovery ofthe works.

The web address is www.pebblebeachartheist.com.In September 2009, Ralph Kennaugh and Angelo Amadio

told the sheriff’s office that someone stole an impressive col-lection of two dozen works by masters Rembrandt, Renoir,van Gogh and other artists from their rental home onSunridge Road.

After the Monterey County Sheriff’s Office looked intothe case, an investigator accused the two men — whoclaimed an estimated $27 million to $80 million in art hadbeen stolen — of insurance fraud, and called the alleged heista “scam” and part of a “criminal enterprise.”

The new website reiterates what Amadio and Kennaughhave told the press before: that officials never investigatedthe alleged heist and didn’t interview them or other potentialwitnesses.

AFTER GETTING direction from thecity council last October that hens should beallowed in town, the Carmel PlanningCommission approved a proposed new ordi-nance Wednesday that would permit resi-dents to keep hens but suggested limiting thenumber of chicken permits to 15 and havingthe ordinance expire in June 2013.

Based on feedback from the commissionduring earlier discussions and the council’ssuggestions, planning and building servicesmanager Sean Conroy presented a law Jan.26 that would permit the keeping of two hensin an enclosure on private property in theresidential district. No roosters would beallowed, the henhouse would be limited to 60square feet and have to comply with rules onsetbacks and site coverage, and permitswould be granted by the planning depart-ment. Chicken waste could not accumulateto the point where it becomes a nuisance, andoutdoor slaughtering would not be allowed.

Commissioners launched their discussionwith the number of birds and agreed twohens would be a good place to start.

“I’m for zero,” commissioner KeithPaterson said. “But that’s just me.”

Resident and realtor Carla Ramsey andCarmel Chamber of Commerce CEO MontaPotter also argued against allowing hens.Potter listed a few hotels in the residentialarea of the city that could be affected, andRamsey worried about their attracting rac-coons and causing problems for landowners.

“I think you’re just buying a lot of trou-ble, here,” she said.

Some commissioners and residentBarbara Livingston wanted hens to beallowed to run loose in their owners’ yards,as long as they don’t cause problems for theneighbors. Commissioner Steve Hillyardpointed out they provide a great means of

getting rid of garden pests like slugs andbugs, and commissioner Victoria Beachcommented that keeping them confined in acage all the time would seem “almost cruel.”

But Paterson said chickens could devas-tate the neighbors’ gardens and are hard tocapture when they escape. That was the rea-soning behind requiring their constant con-finement, according to Conroy, and the com-missioners settled on allowing the hens topeck in their owners’ yards under closesupervision and at risk of punishment shouldthey elicit complaints from neighbors.

Commissioners thought the coops shouldbe smaller. “I have some experience withchickens — I used to live with a bunch ofthem,” Hillyard said. “And two chickensdon’t need 60 feet.” They decided to cut thesize to 20 square feet and limit enclosures to5 feet in height from the ground.

Commissioner Steve Dallas doubted achicken coop could fit on the typical 40-by-100-square-foot lot in Carmel without upset-ting neighbors and causing health and safetyissues. He proposed only allowing hens onlarger properties, but chair Jan Reimers saidthe last time commissioners discussed thatidea, they received criticism for being elitist.

Ultimately, they decided the planningcommission should review applications forhens on small lots, while the planningdepartment could oversee requests for chick-ens on larger properties.

In addition, neighbors within 100 feet ofthe candidate property should receive noticeby mail and physical posting that a residentis applying to keep hens. Also, selling eggswill not be allowed.

After commissioners also decided viola-tions of the chicken rules would beaddressed through revocation or renegotia-tion of the permit, they voted 3-2 to send theproposed ordinance to the council for adop-tion, with Dallas and Paterson dissenting.

Short of cash, state parks has a long list of trails to fixBy CHRIS COUNTS

BATTERED BY storms, scorched by wildfires and sur-rounded by the steepest terrain on the California Coast, thehiking trails in Monterey County’s state parks are under-standably plagued by erosion.

The biggest threat to the trails, though, comes not fromMother Nature, but from Sacramento.

Faced with severe budget constraints, the CaliforniaDepartment of Parks and Recreation has scaled back its fund-ing of trail projects — and the results of those cutbacks canbe seen in trail closure signs up and down the coast.

As the facility manager for state parks in the Montereydistrict, Larry Tierney is charged with overseeing the con-struction, maintenance and repair of trails along the northernhalf of the Big Sur coast. Yet despite the fact that his trailcrew is plagued by a constantly dwindling budget, it is stillmoving forward — admittedly at a snail’s pace — on anambitious slate of projects.

Here is an overview of present and future trail projects inlocal state parks:

■ Point Lobos State Reserve — Compared to other parksin the district, the trails at Point Lobos are in great shape.Instead, the focus here is on making the Bird Island Trailaccessible for people with disabilities. The job is made easi-er by the fact that an accessible restroom is being construct-ed at the trailhead. Improvements to the half-mile route willcost about $750,000 to complete. The work, which will bepaid for with Proposition 84 funds, starts in the spring andshould take about a year to complete.

“What makes this project so attractive is that we were ableto construct the new restroom facility,” Tierney explained.“Also, this is one of the beautiful spots on the coast.”

■ Point Lobos Ranch — a 1,312-acre property which isdensely forested with Monterey pines — was acquired bystate parks in two separate transactions totaling $13 million.The money came from Proposition 117, which was passed byvoters in 1990.

Unfortunately, nearly five years after state parks took pos-session of the property, there is no time table for opening itto the public. With park closures threatened throughout thestate, it’s no surprise that state parks is hesitant to take onsuch an ambitious project. And even if the agency wanted to,it would first need to create a general plan for the park — andthere’s no money available for such a task. But at least there’ssome hope on the horizon. According to Monterey Sectorsuperintendent Dana Jones, the Point Lobos Foundation hascommitted to funding up to half of the plan.

■ Soberanes Canyon Loop — At Garrapata State Park,

the Rocky Ridge and Soberanes Canyon trails merge to forma popular seven-mile loop. Unfortunately, a mile-long stretchof the trail is closed due to erosion. To fix the problem, stateparks plans to build a new section of trail that will incorpo-rate a curvilinear alignment, making it easier for hikers aswell as reducing erosion. Unfortunately, there’s no budget forthe work.

“With the failure of Proposition 21, we’re back to zerofunding on projects like these,” explained Tierney, referringto the failed 2010 ballot measure that would have raised $500million a year for State Parks. And Tierney added thatGarrapata State Park isn’t considered a top priority becauseit doesn’t bring in any revenue.

Despite the closure, hikers can still walk up the RockyRidge Trail to a scenic vista that offers impressive views ofthe Monterey Peninsula and the Big Sur coast. The first 1.25miles of the Soberanes Canyon Trail — which pass throughan impressive redwood grove — remains open as well.

■ Andrew Molera State Park — While the 2008 BasinComplex Fire swept through the upper portion of MoleraState Park, most of the trails within the park were untouchedby the blaze — in large part because most are located west ofHighway 1 where the fire didn’t reach.

The biggest access issue that exists at Molera State Parkinvolves getting across the Big Sur River during the rainyseason to reach some of the park’s most popular trails. In thedry season, temporary bridges accomplish the task.

Tierney reported that his agency is engaged in talks thataim to fix the problem.

“The California Coastal Conservancy is interested in part-nering with us to put in a permanent bridge across the river,”he explained, adding that a conceptual design for the bridgewas created 10 years ago.

■ Pfeiffer Big Sur State Park — The most popular camp-ground in Big Sur, Pfeiffer park suffered badly in the 2008fire. The popular waterfall trail — which leads to PfeifferFalls — is still closed. At first, state parks officials tossedaround the idea of building trail to the waterfall that would beaccessible to people with disabilities, since the waterfall is

By MARY BROWNFIELD

OVER THE strenuous objections of ahandful of residents of a neighborhood nearQuail Lodge, the Carmel Unified SchoolDistrict board voted Monday night to relievecrowding at River School by sending morefuture students to Tularcitos Elementary,relocating the kindergarten to mid-valley,and changing the rules for intradistrict trans-fers. The changes were developed by a com-mittee of parents, teachers, residents, princi-pals and district administrators during inten-sive meetings that began last November.

“It was a difficult decision for the board,”CUSD superintendent Marvin Biasotti saidafter the meeting. “Any action, even noaction, would have resulted in a group ofpeople being unhappy or disappointed.”

The changes approved Jan. 24 will takeabout 100 kids out of River School, with thegraduation of a large fifth-grade class andthe relocation of some 60 kindergartners,bringing enrollment at the start of the nextschool year to an estimated 420. At thebeginning of the current school year, 509students enrolled at River — two dozen morethan projected — and that number had

climbed to 514 by Jan. 20, Biasotti noted.The increases have been caused by a vari-

ety of factors, and they’ve taken CUSD offi-cials by surprise.

“It has been very difficult in recent yearsto predict enrollment at River School,” hesaid. “Therein lies the problem. And becausethe rate of growth is accelerating, predictionsusing averages aren’t reliable.”

One of the district’s main objectives wasto reduce class sizes at River by next fall, notonly to improve conditions for the kidsalready there, but so that if more new stu-dents enter than anticipated, there will beroom for them. Officials also wanted toensure CUSD would not lose state money forclass-size reduction.

Over the course of nine meetings, mem-bers of the committee to study River Schoolovercrowding considered numerous ideasbut settled on relocating the kindergartenclasses to Carmelo School at mid-valley,moving the River School/Tularcitos bound-ary from near Quail Lodge to the easternedge of Carmel Middle School, and requir-ing most district employees who don’t workat River to send their young children toTularcitos, instead.

The committee also recommended grand-fathering in kids who live in the boundarychange area so they can continue attendingRiver School, and their younger siblings canbe enrolled, too, as long as the older childrenare still there. Similar grandfathering wasrecommended for the children of districtemployees.

River School principal Jay Marden saidabout 50 current River School students live

in the area to be shifted to Tularcitos School,but the shift will also ensure any new devel-opment at September Ranch and RanchoCañada will fall within Tularcitos’ zone.

“When we looked at all of the interests,we felt our proposal met every single one,”Marden told the group of residents, parents,teachers and administrators gathered for the

“implied malice” is necessary for a murder conviction.“Nothing more could be done to educate someone of the

dangers of what she was doing,” he said. “Despite thatknowledge, despite that history, she did it again — and didkill someone.”

But Rogers said King’s prior DUIs were for drinking alco-hol, and therefore not relevant to the latest charge.

“What’s really striking around this case are the circum-stances we have today, versus a decade ago,” she said. WhenKing hit and killed Woods outside Pacific Grove MiddleSchool around lunchtime Sept. 2, 2008, she was not drunkand had only taken medications in the amounts prescribed byher doctor, according to Rogers.

Therefore, the old convictions and prison time are“extremely, extremely remote and would be extremely,extremely prejudicial.”

She also said serving time for drinking and driving wouldnot have taught King that driving while taking prescriptionmedications was dangerous.

“Do you dispute the DA’sallegations that she abusedthese medications?” Scottasked Rogers.

“I absolutely disputethem,” she responded.

But Somers said Kingcould not be defended asbeing someone who wasmerely doing what herphysician ordered. “It’s a fal-lacious argument to say thatworking with a doctor who istelling her what to takeabsolves her in this case,” hesaid, because King nevertold her doctor she had a his-tory of addiction to alcoholand drugs.

He also claimed King once faked an ankle injury — goingas far as using black and blue paint to create a “bruise” — inorder to get painkillers. He plans to call King’s former hus-band, to testify about the incident. “No one could paint blackand blue on her ankle and not know she has an addiction,”Somers said.

But Rogers wanted the judge to disallow testimony fromthe man, who was divorced from King 13 years ago, sayinghe is vindictive, hates King and will do anything within hispower to hurt her, including lying in court.

Scott said he would rule on the issues as they arise duringthe trial.

Vocabulary at issueRogers also tried some novel strategies, including asking

the judge to prevent prosecutors and witnesses from referringto Woods as a “victim” in front of the jury, calling the worda “legal conclusion” that could place King in a negative light.She said the death of Woods was accidental, not criminal, andthat only a crime could have a victim.

But the judge disagreed. “‘Victim’ is not a legal conclu-sion — it’s a word people use every day not anywhere nearthis courthouse,” Scott said. He concluded trying to removeit from witnesses’ vocabulary would be “impossible.”

Rogers also wanted witnesses, including a woman whodialed 911, to be forbidden from using the terms, “impaired,”and “reckless” when testifying against King.

But the judge denied that request, agreeing with the pros-ecutor that “reckless,” is merely descriptive. He similarlydenied Rogers’ request to keep “impaired” out of the testi-mony.

The defense attorney also doesn’t want the jury to hearabout an interview conducted by P.G. detectives at King’shome after the accident, because she claimed the officerscoerced King and continued to question her after telling herWoods was dead.

Scott said he would read the transcript and rule on itsadmissibility later.

Opening arguments could take place as early as Friday.The trial expected to last three weeks.

squirrel,” Brinton’s attorney, David Hollingsworth quipped.“It wouldn’t have have been so much if it were a male.”

Though he didn’t specify how much, Hollingsworth said a“considerable amount” in damages in lost rent has alreadybeen paid by Estates on the Bay. The firm’s owner, DeannaGobert, is also listed as a defendant in the suit.

The brokers, however, have not paid for the damage to thehome, according to Hollingsworth.

“The problem was when we contacted the brokerage tosettle things, they said, ‘We are not responsible,’” he claimed.

Estates on the Bay made unrelated news in December2010, after the Monterey County District Attorney’s Officefiled a civil case against Gobert and her sister, Susana Silva,for alleged fraudulent mortgage practices.

A Monterey attorney representing the real estate compa-ny, Bill Daniels, told The Pine Cone Tuesday he wasn’t awareof the squirrel lawsuit, so he made no comment about it.

Despite the rodent’s efforts to escape, it never found a wayout, and the caretaker, after finding the home in shambles,

also found the rodent.“They caught the offending squirrel” and released it,

Hollingsworth said. “They didn’t execute it.”

Historic home taxpayers paid for in ruinsBy KELLY NIX

PACIFIC GROVE imposes strict rules on homeownersto protect the city’s 1,300 historic buildings, even holding anannual tour to showcase the prized buildings. But one of thecity’s own early 20th century historic structures — ignoredfor more than two decades — is falling apart.

Brokaw Hall was designated historic in 1996 after home-owners passed a bond measure to buy it and the property itsits on. Taxpayers are still paying for the purchase.

Since then, however, the duplex, which lies within theMonarch Grove Sanctuary, has seen little or no maintenanceand is crumbling.

“It’s literally falling apart, thanks to the City of PacificGrove,” resident Pat Herrgott told The Pine Cone.

The ramshackle World War 1-era building, which was partof Del Monte Military Academy in the early part of the1900s, was boarded up and hasn’t been occupied since the

mid-1990s. Today, its roof is sagging and awnings are fallingdown. Some say it’s a hazard.

Though there was an effort in the early- and mid-1990s touse the building as a community or education center, the ideanever got off the ground.

In 1990, 69 percent of P.G. residents voted for a measureto purchase 2.2 acres between Grove Acre and Ridge Roadfor $1.4 million from its private owner as part of the ButterflyHabitat Bonds restoration effort. The sale included BrokawHall.

After the purchase, the city decided to tear down theduplex, a plan that was halted after Herrgott and her sister,Sally, told the city the building was historic and thereforeshould be saved.

However, about the same time, the city council rejected aplan to turn the hall into a community center and instructed

Welcome your new 2011 BoardChair, David Sandys

The Chamber is not wasting any time at theoutset of 2011. Before we get into some of thethings planned for 2011, I must thank my pre-decessor, Vicki Lynch, for all her hard workduring 2010 and turning over the reigns withmatters in such good shape. It will be easy tofollow in her footsteps.

We had a great turnout at our first mixer ofthe year. Thanks to the Sunset Center for theirusual outstanding job. Thanks also to Grasing’s

and Cima Collina for catering.I hope you were able to attend our first educational break-

fast of the year on January 25th at the La Playa. The topic was“Marketing to Today’s Consumer” and was presented by theCentral Coast Small Business Development Center.

One of my goals as the board chair this year is to highlightall the different ways the Carmel Chamber serves its members.For instance, just this month, Carmel was featured in a won-derful article in San Joaquin Magazine. Thanks to Monta Potterand Tom Glidden for their efforts. Also, Monta has made sev-eral guest radio appearances, including one for the BBC thatwill be broadcast over all the south of England!!

We’ve got the AT&T coming and once again the Chamberwill be organizing shuttles. Please encourage those you know touse the shuttles. It makes things more convenient for out oftown travelers and it’s a source of revenue for the Chamber.

We’re sending out membership renewals and if you’re not amember, we hope you’ll consider joining. If you are a member,we thank you.

There are many other developments brewing that I plan toshare in the coming months. I’m looking forward to 2011 beingan exciting and productive year for everyone.

or to add a bathroom, for example, might beprevented from using the credits if the mora-torium is approved.

“We are going to have to go to the StateWater Resources Control Board and get clar-ification” on that issue, Bowie said.

Cal Am had requested the moratorium onhookups to make sure water use doesn’t sur-pass state-mandated limits, which wouldexpose the company and its customers tofines.

“We think this underscores the urgencyfor getting a new water project and demon-strates how serious the restrictions are,”Bowie said.

At a public hearing in December inMonterey, opponents of a moratorium,including city mayors, business owners andrepresentatives of the hospitality industry,blasted the proposal, saying it would severe-ly impact business and tourism.

Weatherford acknowledged their con-cerns in his proposed decision, noting thatmany people believe water credits and enti-

tlements should be honored and that impos-ing the a hookup moratorium would result ina serious drop in revenues from temporaryoccupancy, sales and property taxes andhamper cities’ efforts to build affordablehousing.

His proposed ruling would exempt PebbleBeach, Sand City and an area referred to asthe Laguna Seca corridor from the moratori-um. Water use in Pebble Beach is way downfrom historic levels, thanks to the use ofrecycled water on golf courses, so newhookups in Pebble Beach aren’t impactingthe Carmel River, Weatherford said, whileSand City (including the proposed Ecoresortacross from Seaside High School) andLaguna Seca get their water from sourcesoutside Carmel Valley. Projects considered amatter of public health and safety would alsoget exemptions.

On Dec. 2, 2010, the CPUC approved aregional water project, which includes adesalination plant in Marina and would allowCal Am to stop illegal diversions from theCarmel River.

However, the project — if not halted bylawsuits or other delays — won’t be com-plete until at least 2015. The moratorium

would be in effect until a new water projectis online.

Even if the CPUC approves the moratori-um — which it’s expected to do in late

February or March — it’s possible it could beundone if a Santa Clara judge rules in favorof Cal Am and the MPWMD, which sued theSWRCB over the cease and desist order.

P.B. golf, dinner raise $$ for Marine scholarships

Marine Corps CommandantJohn F. Amos

By KELLY NIX

THE COMMANDANT of the Marine Corps — a grad-uate of Carmel High School — will be honored in an eventnext month to raise scholarship money for children of fallenMarines and others.

The inaugural “Patriots at Pebble, Marines Hit the Beach”Golf Tournament and Champions Dinner Feb. 28 supportsthe Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation’s AmericanPatriots Campaign, a program to raise $50 million by 2012.

The event will honor Commandant James F. Amos, who isnot only distinguished as the first aviator to hold the office,but he’s also a CHS alum, class of 1964.

Numerous packages are available for the event rangingfrom $250 for a reserved seat at the Tournament ChampionsDinner and Auction to golf packages from $750.

before a vote on her confirmation. When the supervisors met again Jan. 25, there was little

indication — at least on the surface — Brennan’s confirma-tion would be anything more than a formality. Potter, in fact,came right out and announced he would support her appoint-ment. But as soon as the public comment period began, itbecame clear that the nomination was in serious peril.

The chief objection to Brennan’s appointment was the factthat she doesn’t live in the 4th District, which includes thecities of Del Rey Oaks, Marina, Sand City, Seaside and a por-tion of southwest Salinas as well as an unincorporated part ofthe former Ft. Ord.

“The 4th District was created so we could have represen-tation,” Alvin Edwards, a member of the Seaside CityCouncil, told the supervisors.

Former Seaside City councilman Daryl Choates agreed. “That seat belongs to the 4th District,” he insisted. “We

want someone from the 4th District.”While former Seaside city councilwoman Helen Rucker

offered high praise for Parker, she disagreed with the nomi-nation for the same reason as Edwards and Choates. “Myconstituents feel wounded today,” Rucker said.

Brennan’s supporters, though, countered that other

appointments have gone to residents living outside districts.And they repeatedly recited her credentials.

“Janet is an undeniably capable and experienced woman,”wrote Priscilla Walton in a letter to the board of supervisors.Walton, who is president of the Carmel Area DemocraticWomen’s Club, also spoke at Tuesday’s meeting. “Few indi-viduals in the county are as well qualified as she is in landuse and development planning.”

North County activist Jan Mitchell agreed with Walton’sassessment.

“You have an opportunity to appoint the best qualifiedindividual,” she said. “I applaud supervisor Parker for tryingto do that.”

Several speakers, meanwhile, took issue with Brennan’slongtime affiliation with LandWatch Monterey County, anonprofit group known for its pro-environmental, no-growthviews. Until recently, she was listed as a director for thegroup.

“Where is her allegiance?” asked Ron Chesshire, whosuggested she is still working for the organization as a con-sultant. Chesshire is president of the Monterey/Santa CruzCounty Building and Trades Council.

But North County activist Ed Mitchell observed that otherplanning commissioners have had affiliations with groupstaking political positions, such as the pro-businessRefinement Group.

Several speakers suggested Parker won’t have any troublefinding a qualified candidate in the 4th District and suggest-ed her previous effort wasn’t well publicized. Others, though,

insisted Parker was unable to find a qualified candidate with-in the district who wanted to serve on the commission.

When the comment period began, Parker asked speakersto limit their comments to 90 seconds. Speakers are typical-ly allowed three minutes. Armenta in particular was criticalof the request.

After the public comment period, supervisors Potter andParker left most of the talking to supervisors Salinas,Calcagno and Armenta. Each of the three expressed the opin-ion that districts are better served when they are representedby their own residents.

“We have enough qualified people in each district,”Salinas insisted. “We need to go back and rethink this. Thisis serious stuff. I want to thank Seaside and Marina residentsfor bringing this up.”

Calcagno echoed Salinas’ concerns.“I know that [Brennan] is capable — I’m not even going

to argue that point,” he explained. “But we’ve got districts fora reason. If we continue to go outside of boundaries [to findappointees], the planning commission will be a politicalnightmare.”

Armenta, meanwhile, vowed that he we would supportParker’s next nominee — as long as that resident comes fromthe 4th District. He also suggested a residency requirementbe placed on all commission appointees.

In addition to her work with LandWatch, Brennan is chairof the Carmel Valley Land Use Advisory Committee and anexecutive committee member for the League of WomenVoters of the Monterey Peninsula.

As president of the Carmel MissionFoundation, Wright has been at the forefront of helping withthe latest restoration efforts, including refurbishing the bellsin the tower above the basilica — about which he wrote hisbook, “The Bells of the Carmel Mission,” released lastmonth.

By CHRIS COUNTS

THERE LIKELY isn’t another artgallery in Monterey County that is locatedfarther from civilization, but it’s also doubt-ful you’ll find one in a more spectacular nat-ural setting.

Located about 1,300 feet above the oceanand 2.5 miles up a winding mountain roadfrom Highway 1, the New CamaldoliHermitage in Big Sur is best known for itsresident monks and the famous fundraisingfruitcake they make each holiday season.

But the monastery is also home to sever-al gifted artists aswell as a bookstoreand gift shop thatdoubles as a galleryfor the monks andthe local community.

The gallery willunveil a new show Sunday, Jan. 30, featuringthe artwork by painters Tom Davies andMargaret Rose.

For Davies, whose paintings are a famil-iar sight in local galleries, the show offershim a chance to display both new and oldwork.

“He’s a very vibrant plein aire painterwhose work really captures Big Sur,”explained BeBe, the gallery’s director. “I’vebeen a fan of his work for many years, andI’m thrilled that he’s showing here.”

Davies, a native of England who lives inthe Carmel Highlands and maintains a studioin Garrapata Canyon, came to Big Sur 22years ago. Like so many residents of thearea, he was simply “passing through.”

“I was visiting friends and something justrang a bell,” Davies recalled. “It’s the sameold story.”

Even after two decades on the coast,Davies never grows tired of the local land-scape. It’s his belief that while the mountainsand trees remain essentially the same, his

perception of them continues to evolve. “Ican paint the same scene over and overagain, but I express myself differently eachtime,” he said.

Also, Davies never ceases to be amazedby the ocean.

“The ocean is particularly inspiring,because it’s such a constant presence for ushere on the coast, and yet it is so constantlychanging,” he explained. “To try to captureone moment, while still conveying that con-stant motion, is an irresistible challenge.”

Also exhibited in the gallery is work byFather Arthur Poulin and Brother Emmaus,

Leo Neufeld, DanCronin and KathrinBurleson. If you’reunfamiliar withPoulin’s work, besure to check it out.His impressionistic

Big Sur seascapes and landscapes are simplydazzling.

“He’s a world-class painter,” Bebeobserved.

While the gallery showcases the work oflocal artists, the hermitage showcases thework of Mother Nature. Perched high in thehills above Lucia, the monastery is sur-rounded by dense forests, rocky peaks andthe shimmering sea below. If you’ve neverbeen there, it’s well worth a visit.

“This is a very spiritual place,” Bebeadded. “People come here to heal, renewthemselves and get back to the land. Thisplace is the way Big Sur was when I camehere 30 years ago. It’s so beautiful andpeaceful up here.”

The gallery will host a reception from 2to 4 p.m. The show will be on display untilthe end of May. The hermitage is located onHighway 1 about 55 mile south of Carmel.Turn left when you see the large cross along-

Mobile PigWizard, sweetheart options and peanut butter creativityBy MARY BROWNFIELD

PALO COLORADO resident JonathanRoberts (who recently changed his last namefrom Roveto), also known as PigWizard, hasobtained a coveted spot at the TuesdayMonterey farmers market on AlvaradoStreet, where he hands out samples and sellsfour flavors of sausage — Manchego andartichoke heart chicken, orange poppy chick-en, and hot and mild Sicilian — makingfans happy they always know where to findhim.

But Roberts also hopes to fire up a lunchtruck soon. He purchased one in Oregon a

couple of weeks ago and drove it to theMonterey Peninsula, where he is fixing it upwhile attempting to navigate the complicatedand often frustrating permit process.

Ideally, he’ll be on the road selling hiswares sooner rather than later. According toRoberts, his will be just the second non-tacolunch truck in the area, joining the Babalootruck that makes the rounds turning out greatCuban treats.

In the meantime, visit the Tuesday farm-ers market, which opens at 4 p.m. and closesat 7 p.m. during the winter and 8 p.m. whenthe days are longer. To learn more about themarket, check out

www.oldmonterey.org/farmers.html, and tofind out about PigWizard, look for him onFacebook.

■ New farm joins MPC farmers market

The small operation is now offeringwinter produce, such as root vegetables,bunched and loose greens, brassicas andother vegetables.

According to Monterey Bay CertifiedFarmers Markets, which hosts the MPC mar-ket and a few others on the Peninsula, own-ers Adriana Silva and Chris Tuohig launchedtheir small farm — which initially solelyproduced tomatoes — in 2003. They havesince diversified their crops and also keephens so they can sell fresh eggs on their 20-acre ranch located adjacent to Tynan Lake.They, family members and two dozenemployees work on the farm year round.

■ Valentine’s feast Ventana style

Ten-year-old River School student PaigeHartley invented a new peanut butter sand-wich and has made it to the semifinals of anationwide contest staged by Jif. Afteronline voting on the top 10 is completed Feb.3, five finalists will be flown to New YorkCity for the final vying for the grand prize: a$25,000 college scholarship.

Hartley came up with the unique combi-nation of Jif Extra Crunchy Peanut Butter,mango chutney, plain low-fat yogurt, mildcurry powder, cucumber, golden raisins,chicken breast, cilantro and naan bread. Shenamed her sandwich “Sa-Taysty” and madeit into the finals by scoring well on creativi-ty, nutritional balance, appearance and easeof preparation.

According to her mom, Kristy Downing,Hartley based her recipe “on the tastes ofCoronation Chicken, which she had as achild in England (where she was born) andThai Satay (chicken skewers with peanutsauce). Paige loves the fact that CoronationChicken was made first for Queen ElizabethII, and her middle name is Elizabeth!”

The five finalists will participate in a livejudging in NYC in March, and the grand-

■ New Aubergine chefWith the departure of Christophe

Grosjean back to his native France severalmonths ago, Justin Cogley has stepped is asthe new chef de cuisine at Aubergine restau-rant in the upscale L’Auberge Carmel.

Cogley most recently hails from Chicago,Ill., where he spent four years in the kitchenat the famed Charlie Trotter’s Restaurant. Aschef de cuisine there, he was responsible forthe culinary staff, menu creation, specialevents and instruction of the team. After that,he was executive sous chef at the ElysianHotel.

Cogley described his goal in the kitchenas inspiring guests to “enjoy a broader com-bination of flavors and textures, foods thatpair well with wines.”

Born in Mescaleroa, N.M., Cogley wasjust 12 years old when he began assisting incooking for and catering dinner parties, hint-ing at his career to come.

But before he became a culinary star,Cogley was a star of a different sort: He skat-ed professionally for “Disney on Ice,” whichtook him all over the world.

When he returned to the states, inspiredby the flavors he encountered during hisjourneys, he enrolled at the WesternCulinary Institute, where he achieved tophonors before going to Charlie Trotter’s in2005.

To see what he’s up to now, reserve a spotat Aubergine by calling (831) 624-8578. Therestaurant is located at Monte Verde andSeventh next to Carmel City Hall.

■ Little Napoli’s pizza special

According to restaurateur Rich Pèpe, hisgrandfather, Domenico, immigrated toAmerica from Italy and settled in Hoboken,N.J., in 1911 with only $20 in his pocket andfamily recipes that included the pizza Pèpeserves at his Little Napoli restaurant onDolores Street in Carmel.

To celebrate the Pèpe family’s 100 yearsin America, the restaurant is offering freeSan Gennaro brick-oven pizzas to customersin January and February. The free pizzacoupons are available at Carmel Bakery onOcean Avenue and can be redeemed at LittleNapoli around the corner at Dolores andSeventh.

Meanwhile, Pèpe is working on renovat-ing the building at Mission and Sixth thathoused Piatti for so many years and reportedhe plans to open his latest restaurant venture,Vesuvio, in May.

■ Super Bowl at the trackThe Monterey Bay Race Place at the

Monterey County Fairgrounds will host afree Super Bowl party Feb. 6, with popcorn,

low-priced food like hot dogs, hamburgers,nachos and drinks, and a no-cost footballpool with prizes and giveaways. The 7,000-square-foot space features numerous big-screen TVs, capacious seating and an out-door patio.

The Monterey Race Place is located viaGate 5 at the Monterey County Fairgrounds.For more information, call (831) 372-0315.

■ Rachael at the Rio

After plans to hold a lavish fundraiser atthe Highlands Inn for photographer RachaelShort, who was injured in a car accident inBig Sur during the Halloween weekend lastyear, fell through, Tollner offered the RioGrill and the services of chef Cy Yontz to thegroup planning the fete, Cachaguachef/caterer Michael Jones reported lastweek.

“We were meeting at the Rio when we got

the news, and were grumbling,” he said ofthe team that includes Big Sur Food & Wineand chanterelle festival president TobyRowland-Jones, Molly O’Neal, Gina Westonand Erin Sullivan Kenyon, Short’s aunt.Overhearing their laments, Tollner suggestedthey use his restaurant.

“One of the many reasons to love Tonyand the Rio,” Jones observed. “I always tellpeople that the word, ‘restaurant,’ comesfrom the verb, ‘to restore.’ We used to be asolace and shelter back in the day, and animportant part of not just commerce, butsociety and communication. Some placesstill are.”

So they chose Sunday, April 10, from5:30 to 8 p.m. and are working on the talentto help — hoping Mundaka, Carmel ValleyRanch, Treebones and others might join in.

“All the Photo Mafia are coming togetherfor the auction,” Jones added, since Short isa much loved and talented photographer.

Paige Hartley, 10,hopes her creativetake on the peanutbutter sandwich willwin enough votes inJif’s national contestto earn her a trip toNew York City —and maybe eventhe grand prize ofa $25,000 collegescholarship.

and sidewalks were busy, according toStegman, so she was especially surprised noone witnessed the crime. A woman workingon the window display of a nearby shopv a g u e l yrecalled see-ing an SUVor van, possi-bly off-whitein color, nearher car, butthat was theextent of theinformationshe couldobtain.

“It’s just amazing that somebody didn’treally see anything,” she said.

Carmel police responded within minutesto Stegman’s call and dusted the car forprints, and interim chief Mike Calhounissued a warning about the crime to areabusinesses and eyewear retailers. Stegmanmight have been spotted and followed fromprevious appointments in Santa Cruz orMonterey, according to police.

Stegman said she was shocked by thebreak-in, and she hoped her experiencewould remind others to be cautious andaware of their surroundings.

“I just had no idea this type of theft isgoing on in Carmel,” she said.

Stegman reported the loss to her employ-er and immediately set about canceling herbank account and getting a new card, but sheremains unsettled.

“The samples are bad enough, but whenthey take your purse — now they knowwhere I live,” she said. “And that’s really vul-nerable. It’s really disheartening to thinkthieves have all your personal informationand know about you.”

By CHRIS COUNTS

FOR THE CarmelHigh School girls basket-ball team, 13 is a luckynumber.

The Padres won their13th straight gameWednesday, downingGreenfield High 45-33.

Jule Muegge pacedCarmel High with 14points, five steals and fiverebounds, while SarahAnderson added foursteals and dished off fourassists.

Mackenzie Dooner andAbby Ferrell led the teamwith seven rebounds each.

The Padres extendedtheir win streak to 12games Friday by defeating Santa CatalinaSchool in Monterey.

Anderson — who leads all Monterey Bayplayers in 3-point shooting — had the hothand in the win, sinking six of seven shotsfrom behind the arc. She finished with 20points.

In a game where her shot wasn’t falling,Muegge found other ways to fill up a boxscore. The Monterey Bay’s top scorer record-ed five assists and swiped the ball from heropponents four times.

Dooner, meanwhile, hauled down agame-high eight rebounds and Ferrell added11 points.

The Padres are now 7-0 in league playand 14-2 overall. The team will try for its14th win in a row when it travels to KingCity Friday for its next game, which starts at6:30 p.m.

Johnson dominated his weight class, scor-ing three quick pins. “Nick is wrestling verywell,”coach Russ Shugars said. “He is devel-oping his technique and he is going to verytough as he matures as a wrestler.”

Taylor Hoffman and Joshua Querfurthplaced second in their weight classes, whileJason Moser came in fourth.

On Saturday, Jan. 29, the Carmel Highwrestlers will travel to San Jose, where theywill compete in the Overfelt Invitationaltournament.

Car burglars steal $40K in eyewearwhen sales rep isn’t looking

By MARY BROWNFIELD

A WOMAN selling expensive eyeglass-es in Carmel believes thieves watched herlock her Toyota Prius Tuesday afternoon andthen broke into the car moments after shewas out of sight, making off with thousandsof dollars in samples, along with her Pradapurse, identification, bank card and a cam-era.

Oakland resident Deborah Stegman wasmeeting with Perspectacles owner MikeBrown Jan. 25 when the break-in occurred.Her Prius, which has limo tinting on the win-dows to prevent anyone from seeing inside,was parked just a block from bustling OceanAvenue at Mission and Seventh, but no onereported seeing anyone smashing the rearwindow and emptying the car.

“I was there for a couple of hours andreturned to my car around quarter of 4,opened the back hatch, and everything wasgone,” she said.

Taken were two large, soft suitcases filledwith Modo, Phillip Lim and Derek Lam eye-glasses and sunglasses, as well as trays forthe glasses and Stegman’s purse, which shehad hidden behind one of the seats, and herKodak camera. They overlooked the Droidphone and earpiece in the Toyota’s centerconsole.

Carmel police reported the loss totaled$40,000.

“They broke the window behind the dri-ver’s seat, and that was smashed in,” she said.“Probably, a big SUV just pulled up to theside of the car, and they unloaded every-thing.”

Because no one could have seen what wasin the Prius by passing by, she said, “I had tohave been watched.”

The weather was gorgeous, and the streets

Mayor thanks retiree for four decadesBy MARY BROWNFIELD

KAREN LOVE, the longest servingCity of Carmel employee, was commendedfor her dedication by the city council at itsregular meeting Jan. 4. Love, who wasfinance specialist and payroll clerk, retiredlast Halloween at the age of 67.

Reading the Certificate of Recognitionbefore presenting it to Love in city hall,Mayor Sue McCloud opened by noting thatLove was hired by the city the day afterNASA launched Apollo 10 on May 18, 1969,and observed that during her march upthrough the ranks from accounting clerk tofinancial specialist, Love worked under 10different mayors.

“In 2008, she built a reputation as the IronMaiden, shrugging off a serious heart prob-lem until the payroll was complete, thencoaching her coworkers from her hospitalbed,” she continued. “This heroic perfor-mance was rewarded with a well deservedEmployee of the Year award in 2009.”

McCloud commended Love for her adepthandling of thousands of business licensesand budget documents, and for helping city

employees in payroll and personnel matters.“Armed with a trusty sharp pencil, a yel-

low note pad and her shelves of bindersfilled with decades of experience, she couldcalculate figures faster and more accuratelythan a speeding Excel spreadsheet,”McCloud read. “Karen’s office door wasalways open to employees, and she willinglydispensed sage advice, guidance and a lis-tening ear.”

She also became the resident historianwho could “confidently could tell you howthings were, where things were, and who waswho in this town.”

McCloud closed by thanking Love for heryears of service and acknowledging her“indelible mark on the lives of so many peo-ple.”

With more than four decades of workingfor the city, Love long ago passed the pointof her maximum retirement payout of 2 per-cent of her salary for each year of employ-ment with a cap of 30 years, for which shebecame eligible when she turned 55, makingher unusual among public employees. Sheleft the city at a salary of $70,548, whichputs her annual pension at $42,328.80.

included on the site, which indicates the painting’s prove-nance, letters of transfer from all its prior owners, indepen-dent expert and scientific authentication, insuranceappraisals and other documentation, although the informa-tion is not listed on the site.

“Other details, provenance and identifying markers havebeen excluded from this description to guarantee and protectauthenticity upon recovery,” according to the website.

Individual photographs of the missing artwork are listed,as well as random photographs of parties at Kennaugh’sColumbus, Ohio, and Boston homes taken in the 1990s andas recently as 2009 that show the art on the walls.

The site also has photos of windows and doors of Amadioand Kennaugh’s former Pebble Beach rental home they say isevidence of forced entry into the house, and a lock box thatwas missing and later recovered.

“Other provenance proving both existence and authentici-ty of the artwork has also been recovered since the theft,”according to the website. “This provenance includes, but isnot limited to, past insurance riders, offers on various piecesof art, independent authentication, both expert and scientific,copies of payment and transfers of ownership.”

Also stolen, the men say, was a computer and two wirelesshard drives used to back up records, including the prove-nance for all the artwork, according to the site.

“The purpose of this website is to provide images of thepieces that were stolen during the theft and also to provideinsight into what has occurred since the theft,” the site says.

Amadio and Kennaugh sued the sheriff’s office claiminginvestigators defamed them, but a judge threw out the case,saying sheriff’s officials’ statements were protected by law.

Kennaugh and Amadio are offering a reward of $1 millionfor any information leading to the recovery of all the stolenartworks (not including some automotive memorabilia theysay was also taken) and $5 million for information leading to

the recovery of the works “and the successful arrest and pros-ecution of those responsible for the theft.”

The site includes contact information for the sheriff’soffice, the FBI, Interpol and their Monterey attorney.

Amadio told The Pine Cone, “There is nothing more wecan do but hope some positive press will result and the art isrecovered or an unbiased ethical honest investigation takesplace and the prime suspects looked into,” he said. “Otherthen that, what can we do?”

THE AMERICAN Red Cross Monterey Bay AreaChapter is seeking nominations for the annual Hero Awardsthat recognize community members “who have showncourage, dedication, and character through acts of heroismand kindness.”

The Red Cross wants nominations for Animal RescueHero, Fire Safety Hero, Good Samaritan (adult and youth),Law Enforcement Hero, Medical Professional Hero andMilitary Hero.

Nominees must work or live in Monterey or San Benitocounty and must have acted courageously to save or try tosave someone’s life sometime between Jan. 1, 2009, and Dec.31, 2010. A committee will select the award recipients“based on the degree to which their acts of heroism upholdthe values of the American Red Cross and leave a lasting andpositive impact on the residents of the Monterey and SanBenito counties.” They will be honored at May 14 dinner atthe Naval Postgraduate School.

To nominate someone who fits the bill, visit www.arc-montereybay.org. Submissions are due Feb. 28.

Red Cross seeks hero nominations

To bolster their claims that someone broke into their home andstole tens of millions of dollars in art, Ralph Kennaugh andAngelo Amadio launched a website this week posting dozensof photos of the art. The photos depict Kennaugh’s retirementparty at his Boston home in 2009 (top left), a friend visiting theBoston house in 2008 (middle left) and a 1990s photo offriends at Kennaugh’s home in Columbus, Ohio. The photoabove depicts a window at the P.B. home they say was bro-ken into.

crews to pull out the electrical and plumbing systems in thebuilding and boarded it up, later placing faux windows on thestructure.

Nothing has been done to Brokaw Hall since.“When the city considered themselves stuck with this

building, they just shored it up,” Pat Herrgott said.By neglecting the building, the city seems to have violat-

ed its own ordinance compelling owners of historic buildingsto make sure they are kept in a “state of good repair.”

Pacific Grove planner Sarah Hardgrave told The PineCone the city’s historic preservation ordinance requires min-imum maintenance and upkeep.

Meanwhile, it’s not clear what should be done withBrokaw Hall. Even those in favor of retaining the structurearen’t sure what its use should be or whether it should be torndown or remodeled.

Bob Pacelli, a monarch enthusiast, said if the duplex wasmoved to another location in the city, it would allow for openspace, more flowers and increased sunlight, which he saidwould improve the monarch’s habitat.

However, Esther Trosow believes Brokaw Hall should beremodeled and used as a science or interpretive center.

“While the city has ignored it for a long time to the pointof its being in terrible disrepair, just about any building canbe saved if the will is there,” Trosow wrote in an email mes-sage.

Trosow said she’s had recent offers from volunteers to fixup the building, which she believes is a hazard to passersby.

City budget director Jim Becklenberg said the city would

take action if it finds the building poses a hazard to the pub-lic. “We are trying to evaluate what the best use is for thebuilding and how it can enhance the visitors’ experiencethere,” said Becklenberg, adding that there are no currentplans to tear it down.

Pat Herrgott said she doesn’t hold much hope BrokawHall can be transformed. “Because the city neglected it andrefused to do anything with it, and so many years havepassed,” she said, “it’s virtually worthless.”

RITAFrom page 13A

(“Individual Performance in a Variety or Music Program”)and 1978 (Outstanding Guest Actress in a Drama Series).

While Moreno has graced many of the world’s mostfamous stages, there are few places she would rather be thanCarmel.

“I love Carmel,” she told The Pine Cone this week. “I likeeverything about the place. I love the sound and smell of sea,even if it wreaks havoc on my hair. I hope to retire in Carmel— if I ever retire.”

Carmelites might have to wait a few more years beforeMoreno retires here. She’s simply having too much fun work-ing.

“I just love performing for people,” she said. “I’m prepar-ing an autobiographical one-woman play and I’m going to bedoing it in Berkeley in a few months. I’m very lucky. A lot ofpeople go through life hating what they do. But I love what Ido.”

While Moreno has never performed in Carmel before, shehas worked with Sunset Center’s booking consultant PeterLesnik on many occasions.

“I’ve presented Rita more than any other performer,”observed Lesnik, who is big fan of Moreno’s. “Her ability torelate to an audience is just amazing. I think of her as afemale version of Sammy Davis, Jr. There’s nothing she can’tdo.”

The show starts at 8 p.m. Tickets range from $53 to $78.Sunset Center is located at San Carlos and Ninth. For moreinformation, call (831) 620-2048 or visit www.sunsetcen-ter.org.

Editorial

For real?

IN HIS State of the Union speech Tuesday night, President Barack Obama

made quite a few surprising pronouncements — so surprising that you might

wonder whether he actually meant them, not to mention whether he’ll be able to

carry them out.

The first of these brought immediate, withering criticism from his own party.

And no wonder, because when he spoke to Congress, Obama pledged to do

something that would completely upend business as usual in the capitol, espe-

cially for tax-and-spend Democrats.

“Because the American people deserve to know that special interests aren’t

larding up legislation with pet projects, both parties in Congress should know

this,” the president said. “If a bill comes to my desk with earmarks inside, I will

veto it.”

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid sarcastically dismissed the idea of end-

ing earmarks, calling it nothing more than “a lot of pretty talk,” while House

Minority Whip Steny Hoyer said he “wasn’t very taken” with the idea.

The very definition of an earmark — an appropriation for a local project

inserted by a single member of Congress into an unrelated bill without any

debate — would seem to make it impossible for Obama to fulfill his pledge. Is

he really going to start vetoing major legislation he otherwise supports because

it contains a few billion dollars in expenditures he doesn’t? We sure hope so, but

it’s hard to believe.

Not quite as unlikely, but still a departure for any president from the

Democratic Party, was his promise to “help companies compete by knocking

down barriers that stand in the way of their success,” including lowering the cor-

porate tax rate, which Obama called “one of the highest in the world.” Great

idea! But will he do it?

The president also promised to “freeze annual domestic spending for the next

five years.” If a Republican president promised to do the same thing, the New

York Times would lambaste him for threatening to “slash” important govern-

ment social programs. On this promise, Obama was met with hardly any criti-

cism, not even from the left. Maybe because they didn’t think he meant it? Well,

we certainly hope he did.

And, finally, Obama called for “all our college campuses to open their doors

to our military recruiters and ROTC.” For years, many colleges have barred their

doors to the military and justified it by citing their civil rights objections to the

“don’t ask, don’t tell” policy on gay service members. Of course, for many of

these colleges, that’s just a smoke screen. What they really object to is the very

existence of the U.S. military. From the safety of the ivory tower, it’s easy to pre-

tend evil doesn’t exist and that if we would just lay down our arms, somehow

peace would break out everywhere.

But every president knows better. The world is a place where peace-loving

people still need armed forces to protect them.

“Don’t ask, don’t tell” is no more. But can Obama actually get Harvard and

Stanford to let the ROTC back on their campuses? They’re private institutions,

so his influence is limited.

Still, as with the other promises we just cited, we hope Obama is 100 percent

successful.

L e t t e r sto the Editor

It takes a villageDear Editor,

It is rare when our “village spokesper-son,” Barbara Livingston, and I have any-thing to agree upon. So when we are inagreement, I don’t want to pass up an oppor-tunity to comment.

Barbara is right (Letters, Jan. 24) that thecouncil should look at all sources of newrevenues. And her thoughts about usingusing taxes that affect tourists and residentsalike, as in the meal tax or charging for park-ing, are just those kinds of revenues.

However, using logic that only the “vil-lage idiot” would appreciate, she also callsfor an increase in the TOT by 20 percent sowe can be in “conformity with Seaside andMarina.” This should not be one of ouroptions. Beyond the obvious fact thatSeaside and Marina have distinctly differentbusiness models, and far lower room rates,than Carmel, the revenue numbers of the lastthree years pretty well explain why increas-ing the TOT is a bad idea.

The average room rate in Carmel for2007/2008 was $182.95. The following yearit plunged to $170.03. Occupancy fell from64.7 percent in 2007/2008 to 57 percent in2009/2010. And things aren’t looking muchbetter this year. As of today, 66 percent ofour inns and hotels have vacancies for theupcoming AT&T Pro-Am.

If you look at the hospitality business

today, you will quickly get the picture that itis still in recession. When a patient is on lifesupport, you don’t increase the trauma.There will be a time to increase the TOT, butnow is not that time.

In the meantime, I would love to seeBarbara and the “village rock star,” JasonBurnett, call a town hall meeting to explainto residents that we are not going to solveour budget issues by taxing businessesalone. The budget downturn is a communityproblem and everyone in the “village” willhave to bear their fair share. I am confidentthat we can create a parking system that pro-vides the revenue without compromising the“village character.”

Chris Tescher, Carmel

Why re-try a failed idea?Dear Editor,

For those few of us who are old enough toremember the 1929 stock market crash andthe Great Depression, today’s Republicansolutions to our present state of affairs are aneerie echo of what they did at that earliertime. With Herbert Hoover as president andthe Republicans in control, a program ofstrict government cost cutting and hunkeringdown was vigorously carried out until, bythe time of Roosevelt’s election as presidentthree years later, the country was in neartotal collapse. Unemployment was raging atabout 25 percent, businesses were closingdown everywhere, people were losing theirhouses and farms, bank failures aboundedwith depositors losing everything. It tookanother eight years to recover. Do we reallywant another try at an idea that failed so mis-erably back then?

A GUADALUPE Street resident was hospitalizedSaturday night after she fell underneath her rolling car, whichcame to rest against her legs, according to the Carmel PoliceDepartment.

Rose Carter, 84, had just stepped out of the driver’s seat ofher Jaguar at around 8:45 p.m. Jan. 22 when the car began toroll backward and the open door knocked her down, officerChris Johnson reported. Because the car was on a hill and theparking brake was not activated, it continued to roll backwarduntil the driver’s side wheel came to rest on her legs.

“Her vehicle rolled on top of her,” he said. “She waspinned under the wheel.”

Fortunately, the accident did not prevent her from callingout, and Carter screamed until a nearby neighbor heard hercries for help and came to the rescue.

“He was more or less able to push the car off her,” he said,and was then able to pull the parking brake.

Her screams were heard as far away as the Carl CherryCenter at Guadalupe and Fourth, and several people called911, according to Johnson.

A fire engine and ambulance responded to the accident,and Carter was taken to Community Hospital of theMonterey Peninsula for treatment of minor injuries to herlower extremities.

Time for New Beginnings at Forest Hill Manor

board meeting.After CUSD Board President John

Ellison requested people be respectful ofTularcitos — which, despite its excellentscores on statewide testing, he said had beentreated like a “leper colony” during earlierdiscussions of overcrowding — a handful ofpeople criticized the idea of making RiverSchool’s jurisdiction smaller.

“You’re taking neighborhoods that havebeen established — those people who havesent their kids to River School for 25 years,”said Mitzi Dallas, who lives on Pancho Way.Since the new developments planned for thearea could be years away, she added, “I’mjust not sure what you’re accomplishing.”

Her son, Steve Dallas, also objected to theboundary shift and said property ownersshould be able to opt in to have their childrenattend River School.

Lawrence Samuels, vice president of theBrookdale Homeowners Association thatincludes the Dallas’ street in the neighbor-hood between Quail Lodge and Rancho San

RIVERFrom page 7A

TRAILSFrom page 6A

Carlos Road, said the group “is very muchopposed to this change.” He mentioned arecent homebuyer told him she would nothave bought there if she had known theboundary was going to move.

He also said property values would drop,and he described Carmel Valley Village as aseparate community from the neighborhoodscloser to the mouth of the valley.

Resident Mildred Kline, who has longhad an interest in Carmel schools and sup-ported the bonds passed for improvementsand new construction several years ago, saidshe was impressed with the committee’swork but doubted the importance of keepingclass sizes small.

“I am 91,” she said. “When I went toschool, there were 40 kids in a classroom,and everyone learned very well.”

A woman who recently moved to theQuail Meadows neighborhood fromPennsylvania with her family said they chosethe area specifically because their kidswould be going to River School. She saidpeople who recently bought property butwhose kids who don’t yet attend the schoolshould also be allowed to enroll them there.

“This decision that the committee is rec-ommending will directly impact not only my

first grader, but my soon-to-be kindergart-ner,” she said, adding that the drive toTularcitos would be an inconvenience, sinceshe works at the mouth of the valley.

Via Petra resident Mike Vanoli, who hasthree young children, also adamantlyopposed the boundary move.

And Rob Hall, who lives in the CarmelKnolls neighborhood and therefore won’t beaffected by the recommendations, worriedthe boundary could be moved again in thefuture in a way that would interfere with hisplans to send his children to River School.He wondered if the proposal was a “knee-jerk reaction” to crowded rooms.

‘Stop the bleeding’While River School parent Jim Hamilton

was disappointed at having to abandon aprospective move to the Brookdale neighbor-hood, he said he supported changes that willbe “best for everyone.”

“I’m grateful for what the committee hasdone,” he said. “I think it’s excellent.”

“The No. 1 interest is the experience ofkids in the classroom,” said board memberAmy Funt. “What we have been trying tograpple with is to find a solution that willcurrently ameliorate the problem of over-crowding in the classroom. We hope you, thecommunity, will allow yourselves to bepatient.”

Board member Matt Fuzie made a motionto approve the recommendations, and trusteeAnnette Yee Steck requested special atten-tion be paid to the people who had purchasedproperty in the affected area with the expec-tation their kids would enroll at RiverSchool. Board members agreed considera-tion would be given to those already living inthe region by June 4, when the change willbe made.

“Unborn children will be included underthis policy,” Ellison added.

After the meeting, Biasotti said the dis-trict’s first moves will be to send a newslet-ter to every property owner in the area advis-ing of the pending shift and to attempt out-reach through realtors and other means.

The revisions to the intradistrict transferpolicy will have to be thoroughly evaluatedbefore they can be made, and preparationswill soon begin so Carmelo, the pre-schoolon Carmel Valley Road across from the mid-valley fire station, can receive kindergarten-ers next fall. Classrooms will be remodeled,and a relocatable room from Carmel HighSchool will be installed.

Biasotti strongly supported the commit-tee’s recommendations and said the boardrightfully voted in favor of them as well. “Iam hopeful that over a period of time, thecommunity will see the wisdom of it aswell.”

accessible to people with disabilities, sincethe waterfall is located only about a half-mile from a parking area. But ultimately, theplan was scrapped. Now state parks is simplytrying to reestablish access to the waterfall.According to Tierney, the Save theRedwoods League is going to help fund theproject, which state parks hopes will beginby spring 2012.

Meanwhile, the Save the RedwoodsLeague is funding another trail project in thepark that would travel for about a half-mileto a particularly nice grove of redwoods thenonprofit group purchased and transferred tostate parks. Construction on the future PostCreek Trail could begin as early as this

spring.Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park — Much

of the park was badly burned in the BasinComplex Fire, which started just a short dis-tance away at Grimes Point. Countless thou-sands of trees fell as a result of the blaze,many obscuring the two longest hikingroutes in the park, the Tanbark and Ewoldsentrails. Both have been closed since the fire,but state parks aims to reopen both paths.According to Tierney, his agency is in talkswith the California Conservation Corps torehabilitate the trails. There is no time tablefor the work, but Tierney said the two agen-cies have $500,000 in Proposition 84 fundsavailable to use.

Meanwhile, the McWay Ridge Fire Road— which leads to the Tin House and an idyl-lic picnic spot — is open to hikers.

Catherine was the loving mother of Leslie Barth (Stan) of Esparto, LindseyBressani (Steve) of Folsom, Lorie Lindsey (Michael) of Sacramento, MatthewAlexander (Penelope) of Hillsborough, and Lisa Alexander of San Francisco.

She had 9 grandchildren and 4 great grandchildren. Catherine was affectionately referred to by her grandchildren as Mom and Cath.

Catherine worked beside her husband, Bill, in San Jose as the interior decorator for his custom homes. Many of the residential developments

built by Bill Alexander still exist today and are well known as quality communities in the Willow Glen area. They enjoyed their life on

Mulberry Lane raising their children and entertaining their many friends.In 1965, Catherine and Bill moved their family to Winters, California

to start a new life with the purchase of the Pleasants Ranch. They wereknown in the Winters area for their cherries and later for their California sun-dried tomatoes. Catherine was very involved in the ranch and ran the

packing shed and fruit stand. During the months of May and June, she wasknown as “The Cherry Lady”. Many times Channel 6 Television would arrive at

Pleasants Ranch to do documentaries on the cherry crop and dried fruit operations. Catherine always included everyone at the ranch and she and

Bill loved having friends and family over to enjoy the country life and Bill’s “Monet Garden”. The year 2001 introduced a new chapter into

the lives of Catherine and Bill Alexander when they moved to their final destination together – Carmel, California.

Nothing pleased Catherine more than having the family over for dinner.She will be remembered by her many friends as a fabulous cook, the

consummate party hostess, the one possessing a positive outlook on life, a lover of adventure, a steward of etiquette and sophistication, and a great mother to her children. She also loved the game of bridge

and played golf into her 70s.

Catherine Doane Alexander was respected by everyone that had the privilege of knowing her. Her memory will last forever in the hearts

of all her friends and family. A private family mass will be held.

TOOTH BRUSH FROM3000 BC?

Brushing your teeth proper-ly can prevent cavities, gumdisease, and tooth loss. Poordental health has been associat-ed with heart disease and short-en life expectancy. As long agoas 3000 BC Egyptians madecrude toothbrushes from twigsand leaves. In India and Neemtwigs were used to clean teeth.The first toothbrush like thetype that we use was invented inChina in 1498. The bristleswere coarse hairs taken from ahog’s neck and attached to boneor bamboo handles. The massproduction of the toothbrush in1780’s brought brushing as aregular habit in Europe in the18th century. In the UnitedStates widespread brushing didnot occur until after World WarII. Returning US soldiers con-tinued brush their teeth, as ithad been required in the mili-tary service.

Today we have numerousbrushes to choose from; manu-al, electric, and ultrasonic orbattery operated. Whether youuse twigs or the most sophisti-cated ultrasonic brush it is thethoroughness and the timespent that is the most important.It takes two minutes to thor-oughly brush your teeth. Followa pattern starting on the upperoutside surfaces moving downto the outside lower surfaces.Then start on the inner uppersurfaces and then moving to thelower inner surfaces. Pay care-ful attention to the gum lineand the hard to reach backteeth. Brush the chewing sur-faces and then don’t forget tobrush your tongue to preventbad breath. Brushing strokesshould be down on the upperteeth and up on the lower, hori-zontal brushing should beavoided to prevent toothbrushabrasion. Brush at least twice aday and ask your dentist or den-tal hygienist for tips on yourhard to reach areas.

■ The art of the iPhoneWhile most photographers prefer a more sophisticated camera, Gaston and

Sheila Georis captured images from their recent travels in Mexico with aiPhone.

“What caught my eye was the richness of patterns and colors that giveMexico such warmth,” Gaston Georis explained. “Soon, Sheila started sharingmy visual adventure and my iPhone traveled back and forth from my hand tohers ...”

An exhibit of those images, “I to Eye,” opens Wednesday, Feb. 2, at AristaStudio in Carmel. The studio will host a reception from 6 to 8:30 p.m.

Surprise! Sooty pigeon in the fireplace

WHEN CARMEL Valley residentMichael Lykken heard a scratch-ing sound originating from thechimney of his mid-valley house,he figured there was a bird ontop of the chimney cap. But after looking in the fireplace,Lykken discovered something else.“An egg had fallen down thechimney and had cracked on thebricks,” he said.

And then he saw a soot-cov-ered, formerly white pigeon ontop of the fireplace grate. Thebird, part of a flock of carrierpigeons owned by his parents-in-law next door, was “sitting inthere looking around,” Lykkensaid.

Though he tried to gentlyplace a towel over the bird tocatch it, it got spooked, flew upand perched on a painting of theCarmel Mission. He eventuallycaught the bird in the kitchen andtook it back to his in-laws’ house.

As for the egg? Lykken thinks apredator such as a squirrel stolethe egg from the pigeons’ coopand dropped it when the birdchased after it.
