More than 500 arrests reported in statewide anti-human trafficking operation By City News Service

M

ore than 500 arrests were made in a week-long, statewide anti-human trafficking operation that included personnel from the Los Angeles Police Department and the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, authorities said Tuesday. The 10th annual Operation Reclaim and Rebuild, which was conducted from Jan. 21-27, involved more than 95 federal, state and local agencies, including personnel from the Los Angeles Regional Human Trafficking Task Force. Los Angeles County Sheriff Robert Luna announced the results of the operation at a Tuesday morning news conference at the Hall of Justice in downtown Los Angeles. Luna said authorities made 539 arrests during the operation, including 40

suspected "sexual traffickers or exploiters" and 271 suspected "sex buyers." Also, 54 adults and 11 juveniles were rescued, including a 14-year- old girl, Luna said. It was unclear how many arrests were made in Los Angeles County. "Human trafficking and

child exploitation are devastating crimes that prey on some of the most vulnerable members of our community," Luna said. "This week-long operation demonstrates that if you engage in human trafficking activities, harm our children, and destroy lives, there will

be absolute consequences; and there is no refuge for predators in the state of California," Luna said. In one Los Angeles County operation, task force personnel conducted an undercover "sex buyer" operation on a stretch of Holt Avenue in Pomona, Luna said.

Twelve males, two of whom are registered sex offenders, were arrested on suspicion of solicitation of prostitution, Luna said. In San Diego County, a 17-year-old girl was at the Parkway Plaza Mall in El Cajon when she was approached by a man who told her "she

should be a model" and gave her a business card that had a phone number on it, Luna said. The girl called the number, and she was told that she would be "doing date sex with guys at hotels." The girl told her mother, who contacted authorities, and the suspect was arrested on suspicion of human trafficking of a minor and other offenses, Luna said. Luna was joined at the news conference by Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón, and representatives from the LAPD, the federal Department of Homeland Security and other agencies. Luna noted that although the annual statewide operation is conducted each January, which is Human trafficking Awareness Month, law enforcement personnel work year-round to target human traffickers.

hree city charter amendments will be on the March 5 ballot in Pasadena, officials reminded voters on Monday. The City Council voted unanimously Dec. 4 to put Measures R, S and T on the ballot, enabling Pasadena residents to decide on the proposed amendments. If approved by the majority of voters, the amendments "will enable the City to update outdated codes and language, adapt to changes, eliminate burdensome processes, set limits, and ensure that resources are used effectively, ultimately saving money and benefiting the community," according to a city statement. Officials noted the historical significance of charter amendments in Pasadena. In 1886, the city was officially incorporated and by 1901, Pasadena had become a chartered municipality with an elected mayor determined by popular vote.

uthorities Monday announced a grant designed to help investigators in Los Angeles County track those who are in violation of a "firearm relinquishment order" that is part of a domestic violence restraining order issued by a court. "Today, the Los Angeles Police Department and our partners are proud to announce the successful acquisition of a significant grant aimed at bolstering public safety and reducing the risk of gun violence," the LAPD said in a statement. "The grant, provided by the Judicial Council of California, will enable the implementation of a comprehensive initiative to enhance the relinquishment of firearms by individuals subject to domestic violence restraining orders," the LAPD said. Information on the amount of the grant was not immediately available, according to the LAPD.

os Angeles is grappling with widespread infrastructure and safety challenges, according to recent data. StreetsLA has been tackling a record number of potholes in LA. Spokesperson Dan Halden indicated a significant increase in repairs, "StreetsLA completed approximately the same number of pothole requests as in all of calendar year 2022," from January to March 2023 alone. Halden did not provide the repair costs. Potholes doubled in LA from the previous year, with intense storms as a primary cause, leaving streets in conditions likened to 'Swiss cheese.' Halden's remarks highlight

an urgency for repair. Reporting systems like MyLA311 facilitate quick reporting and tracking of infrastructure issues. Elizabeth Vazquez, a spokesperson for the L.A. County Public Works, echoed the sentiment that the wet season worsens road conditions, with the county's unincorporated areas showing similar trends. Beneath the city's sheen, Caltrans District 7 juggles freeway pothole repair with traffic management. Caltrans spokesperson Eric Menjivar underscored the weight of external conditions on infrastructure wear, stating, "The heavy rainy season Los

Angeles County experienced exacerbates the formation of potholes." He added that the timing for pothole repairs can span "a few hours to days," reflecting the scope of the challenge. The narrative of LA's pothole plight is underpinned by a burdensome

increase in pothole reports - a 133% jump compared to the previous year, further highlighting the city's struggle against nature's impact on its roads. As reported by laist.com, news.yahoo.com and pelhamplus.com.

La Jolla Concours d’Elegance offers spectacular weekend L.A. getaway May S. Ruiz MayChu@att.net

L

ocated about 120 miles south of Pasadena, La Jolla is a wealthy seaside community with a population of approximately 50,000 or close to a third of Pasadena’s. It occupies seven miles of coastline and is home to several venerable educational foundations, including the Scripps Institute of Oceanography and University of California San Diego; historic buildings like the La Jolla Woman’s Club and La Jolla Recreational Center; renowned sports venues such as Torrey Pines Golf course and La Jolla Beach and Tennis Club. It is also the breathtaking setting for the Annual La Jolla Concours d’Elegance, which will be held this year from April 19 to 21. Presented by LPL Financial and major sponsors Panerai, Mercedes Benz, and Sotheby’s, among others, it will showcase classic automobiles from the Roaring ‘20s and Glamorous ‘30s. Celebrating its 18th year, it has been the premier automotive lifestyle event since its inception. Speaking by phone, event chair Michael Dorvillier talks about the event’s less grand beginnings. He relates, “It was created 20 years ago as the La Jolla Motor Cars Classic by a group of community leaders and merchants with the primary objective of bringing business into La Jolla in the month of January when things are usually really, really quiet. Then sometime in 2011 or 2012

the original founders handed ownership of the show to the La Jolla Historical Society.” “Incidentally, the historical society’s executive director at the time was a friend of mine and didn’t know anything about cars,” Dorvillier continues. “I joined the committee the first year to observe and soak up as much information as I could about it. And I realized very quickly they had this really great little car show on a concours venue at this amazing location – Ellen Browning Scripps Park. No other organization can have that entire park for a weekend to themselves, but the show had been there long enough that they kind of had that in their back pocket. However, I wasn’t going to put in my time and energy for a local car show held once a year on a Sunday; I wanted to do a proper concours. Thus, in 2013, the three-day weekend getaway called La Jolla Concours d’Elegance was born.” “Today we have 75 volunteer judges who are from different parts of the U.S., and six or seven of them come from overseas. They’re all specialists in the cars they judge and they want to have La Jolla on their resumé. There are, in fact, quite a few high-end concours around the world. You can go to many different ones around the globe and see worldclass cars that travel from concours to concours. But what makes us stand out and garner global attention is

the experience we offer. Our tagline is ‘world-class cars, world-class experience.’ And La Jolla Concurs d’Elegance has certainly lived up to that claim. Dorvillier remarks, “Last year, we had 21 Duesenbergs on display. Most of them were 1 of 1 – meaning they only ever made one of them. Every single screw, wire, and leather seat was exactly what it would have been when the car was built new. The first five or six Duesenbergs in the line-up were probably worth $100-M. These are pieces of art! You don’t have to like cars to come to our show and love it and want to come back.” That the little La Jolla car show has gone on to become the dazzling and sought-after weekend party is not lost on Dorvillier. He enthuses, “When I took over as chairman, I jokingly said to someone one day ‘Every time I say to my wife let’s go to this car show this weekend, her response is do we really have to go to another one of those?’ It’s usually the last thing a non-car person wants to do. So we purposefully created an experience where if the husband was the car guy and the wife was sick of going to car shows, she was going to be dragging him back next year. And we have succeeded!” It has been a little more than a decade since Dorvillier took the reins of what is now La Jolla Concours d’Elegance. And in that time,

he has met many wealthy yet unassuming people who are just taking in the joys of seeing the most beautiful cars in one place. He marvels, “My best memories involve the people that I’ve met in the car hobby world. When you come to our event, you’re standing there looking at a Bugatti or a Duesenberg that cost anywhere from $10-M to $20-M and you’re talking to the owner. They’re just very down-to-earth people who are truly passionate about their hobby, which is collecting and preserving these pieces of art.” “For a long time, La Jolla was a sleepy town. But

the Concours d’Elegance has livened things up for our community,” declares Dorvillier. “It has helped tourism – people usually arrive on a Thursday and stay for the weekend. Last year we were able to fill 800 hotel rooms; visitors dined in participating restaurants, shopped at clothing stores and various retail establishments; and went into museums. I’m proud to have played a small role in putting La Jolla back on the international map.” “That said, I didn’t do this all by myself,” Dorvillier emphasizes. “Indeed it takes a village to make this happen

– we have a dedicated team year-round and 250 volunteers on the weekend of the event. And I want to make sure they get the recognition they deserve.” Dorvillier and his team have stopped at nothing to put on a once-in-a-lifetime experience. What could be more spectacular than driving down to La Jolla on a beautiful Friday morning this spring with clear blue skies above and the pristine waters of the Pacific Ocean on the horizon and then spending the weekend at the La Jolla Concours d’Elegance? It promises to be one weekend affair to remember!

Orange County Orange County Man sentenced to 140 years in prison for kidnapping, raping 9-year-old girl and female jogger Kevin Michael Konther, 58-years-old from Highland, has been sentenced to 140 years to life in state prison for the brutal, decades-old kidnapping and rape of a 9-year-old girl in Lake Forest and a rape of a female jogger in Mission Viejo – crimes the man tried to blame on his identical twin brother – along with the molestation of a former girlfriend’s daughter. “Only a monster jumps out of the bushes to rape an innocent little girl and then forces her to walk home naked while desperately trying to cover herself with anything she can until she can get home to the safety of her mother’s arms,” said Orange County District Attorney Todd Spitzer. “But raping and humiliating a little girl wasn’t enough for him. When he didn’t get caught he hid in the bushes, stalking his next prey – an unsuspecting jogger who he pulled into the brush and raped. And when he still doesn’t get caught again, he victimized another innocent young girl who had

no idea she was living under the same roof as a monster.” Anaheim Anaheim shares state audit, supports recommendations with adoption underway Anaheim has shared a state audit critical of contract and funding oversight involving Visit Anaheim and the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce and welcomes the report’s recommendations with adoption already underway.

Nearly everyone, I’m sure, knows that the Constitution’s Second Amendment, which gives everyone the right to bear arms, is sacrosanct ... and, like God, it will live forever. Many people, however, may not know that the horrible death and mayhem caused by gun violence is not a relatively recent social aberration. Excessive gun violence in America has a longer history. I found in my clip file a TIME article, dated April 13, 1981, which reported that “Since 1963, guns have finished off more Americans (400,000) than WWII did.” And during that time the U.S. had some 25,000 federal, state and local gun regulations, so scattered and inconsistent as to render them preposterously ineffectual. Does that sound familiar — 43 years later? Has anything changed substantially since 1981? You may call me a cynic, but for years already I’ve lost hope that

this country will ever have less gun violence. What I find absurd is why the law is so selective by protecting mentally ill people’s constitutional right to bear arms, while ignoring their victims’ constitutional right to pursue happiness, which they can no longer pursue because the mentally unbalanced have the right to bear arms with which to kill them. Thus, like all religious fetishes, the consecrated gun will remain the paramount symbol of our country’s freedom. Can anyone fault my fear that mentally unstable citizens can decide whom to kill ... because our laws protect their right to bear arms? I wonder what the rest of the world, most of which have effective gun control laws, thinks of our bloodsoaked land of the free and home of the brave? David Quintero, Monrovia

appy 114th birthday to our Monrovia Fire Department! We have come a long way from a volunteer-based man-drawn cart with a hose and a 50-gallon barrel of water. Our Fire & Rescue Department has grown to a full-time staff of 47 people, two fire engines, one tractor drawn aerial ladder truck, two paramedic rescue squads and one command vehicle. “You’ve come a long way, Baby,” does not begin to do our department justice, as our staff responds to over 4,300 incidents per year. On Jan. 24, 1910, our fire department was established, and a chief was appointed with a salary of $75 per month. The chief and firemen also received $2 per conflagration. A department of exemplary people who put themselves in danger repeatedly to keep us safe should be celebrated every day, but definitely a bit extra on their birthday. Thank you MFD, for your bravery, sacrifice and service. Coming soon: Valentine's Day in Old Town! Make your Old Town dinner reservations now and while you’re at it, reserve a romantic carriage ride. You can even make it a double date. On Feb. 14, from 5 to 9 p.m., a $40 ticket gets you a lovely 15-minute ride through Old Town. The limit is four adults or up to six for families with small children. Make your reservations soon, as the number of rides is limited and may sell out quickly. If you haven’t noticed,

the public parking lots, located between Lemon and Lime, and Myrtle and Primrose are under construction. The lots have been in need of some TLC for some time. Realizing the impact and inconvenience to the public and the business owners, the city is doing their absolute best to fast track these repairs. Pending no weather delays, both lot renovations should be completed by March. Curious about the challenges the city faced last year? Or the accomplishments made? Join city staff at LOOK Cinema on Tuesday, Feb. 13 at 5 p.m. for the State of the City Address. There will be booths with activities and information, followed by the Address at 6 p.m. It is also a wonderful opportunity to learn more about what’s to come for Monrovia in the

future. Speaking of what’s to come, it’s voting season, y’all. We have two council seats up for grabs, as well as the mayoral seat. Collectively, we all need to get our heads out of our apps. Please research and do your due diligence on all candidates prior to voting. Do not vote based on the colors of their lawn signs or just because your friend is voting for them. This is serious business. We hear a lot of complaints about change, development, housing, unhoused, small business support, fees, accountability, transparency, etc. Do not complain. Vote. On Wednesday, Feb. 7, at 6:30 p.m., join us at City Council Chambers or tune in to KGEM for the Council Candidates Forum, followed by the Mayoral Forum.

Listen to the questions our candidates are given and their answers. Learn a bit more about them, their platform and what they stand for. It is my heartfelt opinion that we need to focus on leaders that have a genuine love for Monrovia, its charm, beauty, its residents and the community as a whole. I also think that all of you should be attending City Council meetings or at least watching them on YouTube. When you watch them regularly, you SEE the council. You see what they argue for, about; you see what they support, how they vote on issues that are important to you. These are all the things you need to know BEFORE it is time to vote. It is imperative that we vote for the people that will work hard and fight for the Monrovia we all love.

Medicare certifies hospices in California despite state ban on new licenses By Ava Kofman, ProPublica This story was originally published by ProPublica.

Series: The Hospice Hustle: How a Visionary Movement Became a Plaything for Profiteers asy money and a lack of regulation have transformed a crusade to provide death with dignity into a $22 billion industry rife with fraud, abuse and exploitation. The year 2023 was a banner one for hospice reform. Spurred by media reports, letters from Congress and pressure from lobbying groups, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services increased oversight of end-of-life care. It retooled inspections to focus on quality of care. It made ownership

E

data public for the first time. And, kicking off a plan to visit every hospice provider in the country, its staff made appearances at 7000 sites. Following the tour, the Medicare billing privileges for 46 nonoperational hospices were revoked. In July, the agency also rolled out a special enforcement program to target hospices in Arizona, California, Nevada and Texas — states with alarming spikes in the number of providers. The increase in hospice numbers had raised concerns inside and outside the agency about fraudulent bills for unneeded services and market oversaturation. During its “period of enhanced oversight,” the

agency said, it would scrutinize the claims from new hospices in these states before paying them. These reforms, however, have done little to slow the region’s hospice boom. CMS data from last year shows that these four states continued to drive most of the growth of new Medicare-certified hospices in the country, with two-thirds of all certifications taking place there. The nation’s leading trade groups for end-of-life care have repeatedly recommended that Medicare impose a moratorium on certifying new hospices in counties that have seen an explosion in questionable startups. This

would prevent bad actors from draining Medicare funds, the groups contend, while regulators can investigate fraudulent networks. In response to questions about this recommendation, CMS told ProPublica in a written statement that “if state officials believe there is a hospice issue in their state, they can pursue a state-based hospice license moratorium under their state laws/regulations such as what was done in California.” California, however, offers an example of why this approach may not be working: Last year, the state temporarily banned new hospice licenses altogether after its auditors found evidence of “a large-scale, targeted effort to defraud Medicare,” with providers charging for patients who did not need hospice care or, in some cases, did not exist. But without a federal moratorium on certifications, the large crop of licensees that were established in the past three years can continue to bill Medicare. “The Department of Public Health is doing a fantastic job of trying to clean it up here in California, but they can’t clean it up fast enough if CMS keeps allowing new hospices to charge for patients,” said Sheila Clark, the president

of the California Hospice and Palliative Care Association, a trade group for providers. Indeed, the agency’s data shows that last year it continued to certify hospices located in buildings that have been flagged by auditors and journalists as potential fraud hot spots. In 2023, Medicare certified 15 more hospices at a two-story building in Los Angeles that is home to more than 100 hospices. It also certified three new hospices last year at a Phoenix address that purportedly houses dozens of providers, all of which have materialized in the past two years. CMS said that without “evidence of sanctions” that would authorize it to deny certification, the agency cannot prevent these hospices from entering the program. In a recent blog post it added that “we take our role as stewards of the Medicare Trust Funds seriously, and we work to ensure that taxpayer dollars are spent on highquality, necessary care for each beneficiary.” Hospice fraud doesn’t just drain Medicare reserves. It also harms patients who are not actually dying, since enrollment cuts them off from curative care. Karen Joy Fletcher, communications director at California Senior Medicare Patrol, which runs

a hotline for patients and families, said that hospice fraud continues to be a big problem in the state despite the moratorium. A few weeks ago, for instance, the hotline received a call from Anna Duran, whose mother has been in a nursing home in Los Angeles County since 2010. Duran was surprised to discover that her mother was unable to get her pacemaker checked because she’d recently been enrolled in hospice by a doctor she’d never heard of. Duran, who holds power of attorney for her mother, determined that no one at the nursing home had enrolled her mother — or thought, for that matter, that she was about to die. She had dementia and high blood pressure, but she was still walking. Each time Duran called the number for the hospice business, no one picked up. An analyst from Medicare has now been assigned to untangle the case, but so long as Duran’s mother is still on hospice, she no longer qualifies for her regular physical therapy appointments. Medicare, meanwhile, has paid the hospice more than $7,500. “Nobody knows how this happened,” Duran said. Republished with Creative Commons License (CC BY-NC-ND 3.0).

George Carlin estate files suit in LA over podcast’s alleged AI impression By City News Service

T

he estate of George Carlin has filed suit in Los Angeles against the media company behind an hour-long comedy special billed as an artificial intelligence-generated impression of the late comedian, according to court papers obtained Monday. The lawsuit filed in federal court on Thursday alleges that Will Sasso and Chad Kultgen, hosts of the podcast "Dudesy" -- also the name of their media company -- infringed on the estate's copyrights and

Carlin's name and likeness for "George Carlin: I'm Glad I'm Dead," which was posted on the podcast's YouTube channel. The complaint, brought by Carlin's longtime manager, Jerry Hamza, contends Sasso and Kultgen had no license to use Carlin's likeness or material, and asks that a judge order the podcast taken down. A representative for Sasso and Kultgen could not immediately be reached for comment. Carlin's daughter, Kelly

Carlin, said in a statement that the audio- only stand-up routine "is a poorly executed facsimile cobbled together by unscrupulous individuals to capitalize on the extraordinary goodwill my father established with his adoring fanbase." Carlin died in June 2008. The lawsuit alleges that the internet special "was created through the unauthorized use of Carlin's copyrighted work, (but) is not George Carlin's work." It was generated by use of "a technological process that

also damages the value of Carlin's real work and his

legacy," according to the suit.

California scores 37th in country for K-12 education funding By Suzanne Potter, Producer, Public News Service

C

alifornia ranks 37th out of 48 states for spending on K-12 education - according to a new report from Rutgers University, the University of Miami, and the nonprofit Albert Shanker Institute. The annual School Finance Indicators Database found that California is spending more than 14% less than it did before the great recession of 2008. Report co-author Professor Bruce Baker of the University of Miami said California is considered a "low-effort"

state because its spending on education is not commensurate with its economic might. "They've improved in the last few years, but they were in such a hole for so long because of tax and expenditure limits imposed in the late 70's - Prop 13," said Baker. "So, California's effort is still below the national average." The report finds that 69% of students in California live in underfunded school districts, and 32% in chronically underfunded districts. However, California fares better - ranking 14th in the

country - on shrinking the so-called "opportunity gap," which measures the difference between the highestand lowest-funded school districts. Congress allocated billions to help schools weather the pandemic. Mary Cathryn Ricker, president of the Albert Shanker Institute, said although the federal government did allow states to budget that money into successive school years, the investment is running out and there is no consistent long-term funding plan to

replace it. "Right now, everyone is concerned about the so-called fiscal cliff coming when federal pandemic aid runs out," said Ricker. "But school funding in most states actually fell off a fiscal cliff 15 years ago and never got back up." For the coming fiscal year, California faces a $38 billion deficit. Nonetheless, Gov. Gavin Newsom's $291 billion budget proposal avoids cuts to K-12 schools, which serve almost 6 million students. Disclosure: American Federation of Teachers contrib-

Man arrested in San Pedro for Moreno Valley shooting By City News Service

A

36-year-old San Pedro man has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder for allegedly shooting a man in Moreno Valley last week. Deputies from the Moreno Valley Investiga-

tion Bureau with assistance from the Riverside County Fugitive Warrant Enforcement team served a search warrant Thursday afternoon at a residence in the 900 block of West Channel Street in San Pedro, according to

the Riverside County Sheriff's Department. They arrested Christian Chavez and also allegedly recovered "items related to the shooting," Sgt. Martinez said. The warrant stemmed

from a shooting on Jan. 22, when a victim was found by deputies with a gunshot wound in the 22000 block of Scarlet Sage in Moreno Valley. The victim was taken to a hospital where he remained in stable condition,

officials said Friday, while the suspect fled the scene before deputies arrived. Chavez was taken into custody without incident and was booked at the Robert Presley Detention Center in Riverside with bail set at $1

million. Background information on Chavez was unavailable. Anyone with information regarding the case was urged to contact Investigator Jesus Acevedo at the Moreno Valley station at 951-486-6700.

California embraces tradition in education with cursive writing revival By HeyWire AI

I

n a world increasingly dominated by digital devices, California has mandated a return to tradition with the recent reintroduction of cursive writing in public schools for grades one through six. This requirement, backed by state law, strives to ensure students, by the end of sixth grade, are able to read and write in the once-venerated script. Sixth grader Milo Chang, a student at Orangethorpe Elementary School, finds delight and utility in the practice. "I like it...it's just fancy, how to write, and it's fun learning new letters," said Chang, who also believes cursive has improved his print handwriting. The reintroduction, sponsored by Assemblymember Sharon Quirk-Silva,

was inspired by a conversation with former Governor Jerry Brown in 2016. “Jerry Brown was the governor and he invited a group of us to dinner. I sat right next to him and he said, 'What do you do?' And I said 'I'm an elementary grade teacher,' and he immediately said, 'You need to bring back cursive writing,'" Quirk-Silva recalled. While groundwork for this skill was present in California's Common Core standards, the quality of instruction remained lackluster, prompting poor outcomes. The new law aims to rectify this, leading Orangethorpe teacher Pamela Keller to encourage her students. “A lot of my students will say, 'Oh, it's so hard to write letters.' And so we tell them,

U.S. Constitution. | Photo by Jonathan Thorne CC BY-NC 2.0 DEED

'Okay, this is going to make you smarter. It's going to make some connections in your brain,” Keller explained. Leslie Zoroya, project director for reading language arts at the Los Angeles County Office of Education, echoed the developmental

benefits, noting that cursive writing activates different neural networks beneficial to language development. Cursive also offers a tangible link to the past, allowing the study of historical documents like the Constitution. The California Early

Literacy Coalition and experts like Megan Potente of Decoding Dyslexia CA and Marshall Tuck of EdVoice emphasize the importance of robust literacy, particularly for the state’s most vulnerable students, including many Black and Latino children. Their recommendations for the 2024 legislative agenda revolve around science-based reading strategies to ensure proficiency by third grade and bridge persistent educational gaps. Neuroscientists like Claudia Aguirre and occupational therapy experts such as Kelsey Voltz-Poremba from the University of Pittsburgh suggest cursive may enhance cognitive development and learning outcomes. However, this policy marks a larger global debate

on handwriting's relevance as countries like the UK, Spain, Italy, and France continue to teach cursive, while Finland has discarded it. Mississippi has seen promising results from literacy reforms based on the science of reading. In California, educators and policymakers seek to balance digital literacy with traditional skills, with the exploration of cursive's cognitive benefits ongoing amidst this digital age. As the state grapples with the task of equipping its youth with diverse abilities, one fact remains clear: there's still room for the elegant swirls of cursive writing in the tapestry of education.

PUBLIC HEARING TO RESCIND THE CITY COUNCIL’S APPROVAL ON ZONE CHANGE 22-02 AND SPECIFIC PLAN AMENDMENT 22-01 – On June 27, 2023, the City Council approved Specific Plan Amendment 22-01 and Zone Change 22-02, amending the Zoning Map and Garvey Avenue Specific Plan by changing the zone of the subject properties from Garvey Avenue Specific Plan (GSP) (APNs: 5287-038-018, -019, -020 and -029) and Garvey Avenue Specific Plan, Residential/Commercial (GSPR/C) (APNs: 5287-038-030 and -033) to Garvey Avenue Specific Plan, Incentivized Mixed-Use (GSP-MU) zone, for the development of a seven-story, mixed-use development with 35,105 square feet of nonresidential use and 93 residential apartments, which includes 24 live/work units located at 7849-7857 Garvey Avenue and 7900-7916 Virginia Street. Due to the changing economic landscape which has caused construction and operation of the project to be financially infeasible, the applicant, Green Park Property, LLC, has determined that it cannot move forward with the proposed project. On January 5, 2024, Green Park Property, LLC submitted a letter requesting that the City Council rescind all approvals for the Strathmore Garvey Mixed-Use project. The rescission of the project would revert the zone of the properties from GSP-MU back to its original zone, which are GSP and GSP-R/C.

When an erosion and sedimentation control permit is required by Section 15.40.050, the provisions of said permit shall supersede conflicting provisions of any other permit. The application shall be accompanied by plans and specifications prepared by a registered civil engineer. The developer shall be guided by the principles of erosion prevention described in the following subdivisions or by any other acceptable principles or practices. 1. The erosion and sedimentation control plan should be fitted to the topography and soil class so as to create the least potential for soil loss. Maximum use shall be made of vegetation to minimize inevitable soil loss through land disturbing activity, such as: a. Natural vegetation should be retained wherever possible; b. Where inadequate natural vegetation exists, or where it becomes necessary to remove existing natural vegetation, temporary vegetation or mulching should be installed promptly to minimize inevitable soil loss and to ensure that soil losses are kept below the tolerable limits; c. Erosion control elements shall be implemented as soon as practical in the development process, except that the time elapsed shall not exceed sixty (60) days after the cessation, termination or completion of grading, whichever comes first. 2. Exposure of the soil through land disturbing activity should be held to the smallest practicable area and to the shortest practicable period of time consistent with maximum tolerable soil loss levels. 3. Appropriate provision should be made to accommodate increased storm water runoff and consequent soil loss occasioned by changed soil and surface conditions during and after development. In addition to the use of vegetation and limitations on soil exposure as prescribed herein, such provisions may include, but are not limited to: a. Installing and maintaining sediment basins, debris basins, desilting basins or silt traps to substantially reduce sediment from runoff water. C. Whenever an erosion and sedimentation control permit is required, a security deposit per the current Department of Public Works-Engineering Division fee schedule shall be required to guarantee that provisions of the permit are met. Any measures which are temporary and portable, such as sandbags and Visqueen, may be stored on site so as to not interfere with normal construction activity during dry weather. However, any necessary measures shown on the approved plan shall be in place during any storm event. 1. If those erosion control measures shown on the plan are not in place within twenty-four (24) hours of the prediction of a storm event by the U.S. Weather Service, the City Engineer may issue a Stop Work Notice until such measures installed and Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan is fully implemented. 2. If any sedimentation does collect in the public right-of-way, it shall be cleaned up within twenty-four (24) hours of the end of each storm event, the City Engineer may issue a Stop Work Notice until such measures installed and Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan is fully implemented.

15.40.080 Permit—Issuance. The application and plans and specifications for a permit under this chapter shall be checked by the City Engineer. Such plans may be reviewed by other departments of the city to check compliance with the laws and ordinances under their jurisdiction. If the City Engineer is satisfied that the work described in the application and the plans filed therewith conform to the requirements of this chapter and other applicable laws and ordinances, and that the fee specified in Section 15.40.090 has been paid, the City Engineer shall issue a grading permit therefor. 15.40.090 Permit—Fee. The applicant for a grading permit, under Section 15.40.070, or an erosion and sedimentation control permit, shall pay the following fees to the city: A. Plan Check Fee. Whenever a permit is required by this chapter, the applicant shall pay a fee established by Council resolution to defray the cost of engineering and plan checking. The plan check fee shall be paid at the time of filing the application for the permit. B. Inspection Fee. The applicant shall pay a fee established by Council resolution to defray the cost of engineering and inspection. The inspection fee shall be paid at the time of issuance of the permit. C. If the permit is allowed to expire pursuant to Section 15.40.100, the inspection fee shall be refunded, less any direct costs incurred by the city. D. If all improvements approved under the grading permit, including all public improvements, are not completed by the date shown on the valid grading permit, then an additional inspection fee, equal to the actual cost to the city, shall be required. The amount of such additional fees shall be deducted from the security deposit. 15.40.100 Permit—Expiration. Every grading permit shall expire and become null and void if the work authorized by such permit has not been commenced within sixty (60) days of date the grading permit was issued; except that the City Engineer may, if the permit holder presents satisfactory evidence that unusual difficulties have prevented work from being started or completed within the specified time limits, grant a reasonable extension of time on said permit; provided that the application for the extension of time is made before the date of expiration of the permit and an erosion and sedimentation control permit is obtained when required. 15.40.110 Permit—Denial. The City Engineer shall deny a grading permit in any case where the work, as proposed by the applicant, is likely to endanger any private or public property, result in the deposition of debris thereon, remove or reduce lateral support or interfere with any drainage course. Factors to be considered in making such findings shall include, but shall not be limited to, possible saturation by rains, earth movement, runoff of surface waters, and subsurface conditions such as the stratification and faulting of rock, and nature and type of soil or rock. Failure of the City Engineer to observe or recognize hazardous conditions or to fail to deny the grading permit shall not relieve the owner or his or her agent from responsibility for the condition or damages resulting there from and shall not result in the city being responsible for the condition or damages resulting therefrom. 15.40.120 Inspections. A. The City Engineer shall, when requested, make the inspections required in this section, and shall either approve that portion of the work completed or shall notify the permittee wherein the work fails to comply with this chapter. Where it is found by inspection that the soil or other conditions are not as stated or shown in the application, the City Engineer may immediately order all work to cease until approval is obtained for a revised grading plan conforming to the existing conditions. B. Plans for grading work, bearing the signature approval of the City Engineer, shall be maintained at the site during the progress of the grading work and until the work has been approved. The permittee shall notify the City Engineer or his/her designee in order to obtain inspections in accordance with the following schedule and at least forty-eight (48) hours before said inspection is to be made: 1. Initial Inspection. When the permittee or his agent is ready to begin work on an excavation or fill; 2. Rough Grading. When all rough grading has been completed and at least forty-eight (48) hours before Special Structures and Final Inspections is to be made: 3. Special Structures. When excavations are complete for retaining and crib walls and when reinforcing steel is in place and before concrete is poured; 4. Final Inspection. When all work, including slope planting and installation of drainage and other structures has been completed. C. Compaction of fills which were approved by the City Engineer in accordance with Section 15.36.180 shall be inspected by a registered geotechnical engineer. A report prepared and signed by said geotechnical engineer shall be submitted to the City Engineer upon completion of the work and shall include the following: 1. A contour map showing the original and finished surfaces of the areas filled, unless such map has previously been filed as part of the application for the grading permit; 2. The foundation bearing values recommended for the compacted fill; 3. A description of the materials used in the fill and the procedure of deposit and compaction, including the preparation of original ground surface before making the fill;

LEGALS 4. A plan showing the location of tests made in the fill together with a tabulation of compaction test results; 5. A statement that all work was done in conformance with the provisions of this chapter. Building permits cannot be issued until rough grading (graded soil surface is within six inches of final planned grade or elevation and all rough drainage devices are installed) is complete and approved by the City Engineer or his/her designee. 15.40.130 Special precautions required. If at any stage of the work the City Engineer determines that the nature of the formation is such that further work, as authorized by an existing grading permit, may expose to risk any property or public way, the City Engineer may immediately order all work to cease, and require as a condition to allowing further work to be done, that such reasonable safety precautions be taken as considered advisable by the City Engineer. 15.40.140 Certification by engineer. If, upon final inspection of any excavation or fill, it is found that the work authorized by the grading permit has been satisfactorily completed in accordance with the requirements of this chapter, and any other requirements imposed, the Civil Engineer of record shall so certify. Such certification is required before any building permit may be granted. 15.40.150 Revocation of certification. The City Engineer shall have the power to revoke such certification whenever the work is found to have been materially extended or altered without obtaining necessary permits from the city or that any of the work included in the grading permit has not been maintained in good condition and repair as specified in Section 15.40.040 15.40.160 Liability insurance and certificate. A. Insurance Certificate. A certificate of insurance as required in Division (A) of this section, issued by a corporation authorized to do insurance business within the state, which certificate shall provide that the insurance thereby represented will not be canceled, reduced, or allowed to expire, shall be filed with the city before any permits under this chapter may be issued or authorized. All such insurance certificates shall be submitted to the City Attorney for approval before acceptance by the city. Said insurance shall insure to the benefit of any and all persons or property injured as a result of water or drainage damage, the flow of mud or debris, or earth slides, resulting from or contributed to by such excavation, fill or grading. The certificate shall designate the city as additional insured. B. Insurance Policy. The policy of insurance shall be submitted which fully describes coverages and exclusions. 15.40.170 Excavations. A. No excavation shall be made which creates any exposed surface steeper in slope than two (2) horizontal to one vertical. The City Engineer may require an excavation to be made with a cut-face flatter in slope if the City Engineer finds that the material in which the excavation is to be made is unusually subject to erosion, or if other conditions warrant a flatter slope for stability and safety. B. Excavations shall not extend below the angle of repose, or natural slope, of the soil under the nearest point of any footing or foundation of any building or of the soil under the nearest point of any footing or foundation of any building or structure, unless such footing or foundation is first properly underpinned or protected against settlement in a manner satisfactory to the City Engineer. C. No cut slope shall be constructed over thirty (30) feet in height unless the City Engineer has been furnished satisfactory evidence by a qualified geologist or geotechnical engineer that such slope will be stable. If the soil structure so requires, as determined by the Engineer, terraces not less than five (5) feet in width shall be constructed in all cut slopes at the rate of one terrace for each twenty (20) feet of height (or portion thereof) above twenty (20) feet. 15.40.180 Fills. A. No fill shall be made which creates any exposed surface steeper in slope than two (2) horizontal to one vertical unless supported by an approved Geotechnical Report. The City Engineer may require a fill to be constructed with an exposed surface flatter in slope if such flatter slope is determined to be necessary for stability and safety. B. Unless otherwise approved by the City Engineer, no fill shall be made with materials other than clean soil or earth. C. A written report of the compaction as specified in Section 15.40.120 shall be submitted to the City Engineer for review and approval. D. The City Engineer may request additional test information or may modify or delete any of the above provisions if the site conditions or materials so warrant. However, in no case shall the City Engineer approve a slope steeper than that called for in this chapter without first finding that the steeper slope would lead to an improvement in the overall quality of the development. A steeper slope may be permitted only if two (2) reports prepared by registered soils engineers concur that minimum factors of safety exist for both surficial and gross stability. The cost of both reports shall be borne by the developer. 15.40.190 Retaining walls or cribbing. Retaining walls or cribbing shall be constructed in accordance with the provisions of the Building Code and shall be used whenever necessary to prevent the surface of any excavation or fill from exceeding the maximum allowable slopes set forth in this chapter and requires Building Division approvals. 15.40.200 Drainage provisions. A. Adequate provisions shall be made to prevent any surface waters from damaging the cut face of an excavation or the sloping surface of a fill. All drainage provisions shall be of such design as to carry surface waters to the nearest practical

The City Engineer may require such drainage structures or facilities to be constructed or installed which, in the opinion of the City Engineer, are necessary to prevent erosion damage and to satisfactorily carry off surface waters. B. Where pads or terraces are constructed, surface drainage shall not be permitted to sheet flow over the lower slope. Such drainage shall be carried laterally across the pad or terrace. When required by the City Engineer, terraces shall be paved. 15.40.210 Slope planting. All fill slopes shall be planted with approved ground cover, unless specifically exempted by the City Engineer. In addition, the City Engineer may require planting with approved ground cover for any cut slope to improve stability or to reduce erosion and runoff. In all cases where slope planting is required, approved sprinkler systems shall be installed to adequately water such planting. A landscape and irrigation plan shall be submitted to the Development Review Committee for approval. SECTION 3. To the extent the terms and provisions of this Ordinance may be inconsistent or in conflict with the terms or conditions of any prior City ordinance, motion, resolution, rule or the city or that any of the work included in the grading permit has not been maintained in good condition and repair as specified in Section 15.40.040 15.40.160 Liability insurance and certificate.

LA County tentatively approves sidewalk vending ordinance By City News Service

T

he Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors has tentatively approved a pair of ordinances regulating sidewalk food vendors, including the establishment of fees that the county hopes to largely subsidize, and the ordinances will return to the board for final approval next week. According to Supervi-

sor Hilda Solis' office, there are roughly 10,000 sidewalk vendors selling food in the county, most of them coming from Latino and other communities of color. "Sidewalk vending, including food vending, represents an integral part of the cultural and civic fabric of Los Angeles County," Solis said in a statement. "This is especially true

in the 1st District, where communities like East Los Angeles have long been a hub for food vending. For many residents, especially those from low-income or immigrant communities, food vending represents one of the few economic pathways to attain financial independence and stability." The board approved

two ordinances, the first of which outlines health-permit requirements for "compact mobile food operations," which are smaller operations run from carts or other nonmotorized equipment. The ordinance, which would apply to all vendors in the county — except those in Pasadena, Long Beach and Vernon, which all have their

own health departments. The city of Long Beach last week approved its own sidewalk vending ordinance. Under the county ordinance, obtaining a health permit would require the operator to pay an initial fee, ranging from $508 for a low-risk operation selling

pre-packaged food to $1,186 for higher-risk vendors who prepare and sell hot food, such as a taco stand or hot dog cart. Vendors would then have to pay ongoing annual fees ranging from $226 to $1,000, depending on the type of vending. Solis said she plans to

Law enforcement Partners with the LAPD in the grant include the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department and the Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles. "This multi-agency collaboration signifies a strong commitment to upholding the values of security, integrity, and unity within our City and County of Los Angeles," the LAPD said. The key highlight of the grant initiative is the implementation of a portal designed to "facilitate seamless collaboration among agencies, providing a centralized platform for timely information exchange," the LAPD said.

"Once the court has determined an individual is in violation of a firearm relinquishment order as part of their restraining order, law enforcement will be automatically notified and begin an investigation," the LAPD said. "Swift and decisive action will be taken to confirm the prompt surrender of firearms, reducing the potential for violence, and enhancing overall community safety," the LAPD said. According to the LAPD, the portal is expected to launch in January of 2025. "The grant will provide funding for the department to create a task force to investigate firearms relinquishment

violations sent manually by the court," the LAPD said. Firearms in domestic violence situations dramatically increase the lethality risk, authorities said. "The court is proud to partner with the two largest law enforcement agencies in Los Angeles County to address gun violence in our communities," Superior Court of Los Angeles County Presiding Judge Samantha P. Jessner said in a statement. "With funding provided by this grant awarded by the Judicial Council of California, the court is working to build technology infrastructure so that violations of court orders to relinquish firearms

in domestic violence restraining order cases are timely and efficiently communicated between the court and law enforcement," Jessner said. According to a 2019 analysis by Everytown Research, nearly two-thirds of intimate partner homicides in the United States are committed with a firearm. Also, a study published in the American Journal of Public Health indicates that the risk of homicide for women in abusive relationships is at least five times higher if the abuser has access to a firearm. "As law enforcement leaders, we recognize the significance of receiving the Firearms Relinquishment

Grant," Los Angeles County Sheriff Robert Luna said in a statement. "I firmly believe that obtaining the Firearms Relinquishment Grant is a crucial step towards enhancing public safety. Centralizing the portal will expedite the exchange of information once the court has granted a domestic violence restraining order.

"Collaborating with LAPD and Superior Courts, this grant enables us to forge a united front in addressing domestic violence and supporting the victims. Together, we can enhance public safety, promote responsible gun ownership, and build a stronger, more secure community for all," Luna said.

PaleyFest in LA to feature 'Family Guy' table read, 'Curb' salute By City News Service

A

25th anniversary celebration of Fox's "Family Guy" featuring a live table read and a salute to HBO's "Curb Your Enthusiasm" in its farewell season are among the highlights planned for this year's 41st annual PaleyFest LA in April, officials announced. "The Curb cast and I are looking forward to seeing you all at PaleyFest! Just a heads up, I may not sound like myself," series star and creator Larry David said. "Since shooting ended I've been passing the time by playing the Jew's harp, which has damaged my teeth and given me a pronounced lisp. I have

ordered special dentures from Estonia, but they may not arrive in time. Fingers crossed. In any event, see you there." The 41st annual PaleyFest LA will take place from April 12-20 at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood. This year's selections encompass a collection of "the best programs that television has to offer featuring beloved shows celebrating their farewell seasons and milestone anniversaries, as well new shows certain to take their place among television's most iconic series and current fan favorites," festival organizers said. "We are thrilled to

present this star-studded lineup from award- winning shows to a much-anticipated debut, as well as special anniversaries and farewells to some fan-favorites," Paley Center President and CEO Maureen Reidy said. "We look forward to welcoming television fans back to the Dolby Theatre this April, and we extend our tremendous thanks to Citi and the William S. Paley Foundation for their generous and continued support of PaleyFest LA." Other events planned for this year include a conversation with the stars of Apple TV+'s "The Morning Show," a discussion with the

stars of Netflix's upcoming show "Avatar: The Last Airbender," events honoring Disney+'s "Loki" and CBS' and "Young Sheldon" — which like "Curb" are celebrating their farewell seasons — an appearance by the host of CBS' "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" and a 10th anniversary celebration for NBC's "Late Night with Seth Meyers." Seth MacFarlane, creator of "Family Guy," said, "While I'd been counting on a 24th anniversary celebration at PaleyFest, this is the next best thing, and I'm honored to participate."

A Jasmine (A512126)

Jasmine is a beautiful bull terrier mix. She’s two years old, and full of fun! This beautiful girl is loving, cuddly and can’t wait to meet you! Jasmine has been hanging out in a foster home, and her foster family says she’s doing well. They report that she's an excellent dog. She gets along with everyone in the family and is good with every dog she's met so far. Jasmine appears to be crate-trained and responds to other training as well. She likes her toys but will happily give them to you if you want. What a good girl! She’s only 35 pounds, so she’s the perfect size for snuggling on the couch next to you. Jasmine and all other animals over 6 months old can be adopted for only $14 from February 8 – 18, during Pasadena Humane’s Make Your Heart Happy-Adopt A Pet promotion! All dog adoptions include spay or neuter, microchip, and age-appropriate vaccines. New adopters will receive a complimentary health-and-wellness exam from VCA Animal Hospitals, as well as a goody bag filled with information about how to care for your pet. View photos of adoptable pets and schedule an adoption appointment at pasadenahumane.org. Daily adoption appointments can be scheduled online. New adoption appointments are available every Sunday and Wednesday at 10:00 a.m. Walk-in appointments are available every day from 2:00 – 5:00 beginning Monday, 2/6. Pets may not be available for adoption and cannot be held for potential adopters by phone calls or email.

Canadian man was sentenced Monday to 72 months in federal prison for distributing hundreds of pounds of cocaine out of stash houses in Alhambra. Sam Nang Bou, 41, of Edmonton, Canada, pleaded guilty in December 2022 in downtown Los Angeles to one count of distribution of cocaine, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office. In June 2022, Bou operated two stash houses in Alhambra in which he used to store and prepare bulk quantities of narcotics for distribution and eventual importation into Canada, prosecutors said. On June 28, 2022, Bou knowingly and intentionally transported about 230.6 pounds of cocaine from one of the Alhambra stash houses to a location in Hesperia.

locked the unit with the vehicle inside of it, papers filed in Los Angeles federal court show. Inside of the Dodge Caravan's two hidden trap compartments, Bou possessed about 104.3 pounds of cocaine and 325 grams of methamphetamine, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office. At one of the Alhambra stash houses, Bou possessed storage tubs, dozens of rolls of tape, numerous duffle bags and boxes, vacuum sealed bags, heat sealers, boxes of dryer sheets, scales and a money counter. He also had industrial-size containers of various chemicals used to clean the drugs, coveralls, various sets of gloves, numerous bowls and containers, several masks and a respirator, federal prosecutors said.

Twizzler (A511933)

Two-year-old Twizzler is built for adventure! This stunning beauty is ready to hit the trails for a run or a hike. She is happiest on the go! Twizzler has spent some time in foster homes to help us get a better picture of who she is. The foster families have reported that she is housetrained and very responsive to treats and praise. She would do well in a training class! She is also incredibly affectionate and loving. She’s very snuggly and wants to be right by your side, lay her head in your lap and give kisses. In one of the foster homes, Twizzler had an older dog companion and they got along well, but she may prefer to be the only apple in your eye. Twizzler and all other animals over 6 months old can be adopted for only $14 from February 8 – 18, during Pasadena Humane’s Make Your Heart Happy-Adopt A Pet promotion! All dog adoptions include spay or neuter, microchip, and age-appropriate vaccines.

Pets may not be available for adoption and cannot be held for potential adopters by phone calls or email.

While in Hesperia, Bou handed over four boxes containing the cocaine to a truck driver for exportation into Canada, prosecutors said. Bou engaged in eight other similar distributions of cocaine and methamphetamine from September 2021 to September 2022. In total, for these eight additional distributions, Bou distributed about 752 pounds of cocaine and nearly 1,608.7 pounds of methamphetamine, prosecutors said. In September 2022, Bou operated and controlled a Dodge Caravan with two hidden trap compartments that he used to store bulk quantities of drugs. He also controlled a storage unit in Alhambra, which he rented using an alias. On Sept. 1, 2022, Bou drove the vehicle into the storage unit and

introduce a motion next week aimed at largely subsidizing those fees for low-income vendors, who could have as much as 75% of the healthpermit cost covered. The second ordinance approved by the board sets regulations for vendors, including restrictions on where and when they can operate and requirements for distance between vendors. Vendors would also be barred from connecting to any public utilities such as water and power sources. Under that ordinance,

vendors would have to register with the county and pay a registration fee of $604. That fee, however, would also be largely subsidized by the county Department of Economic Opportunity, which would cover the full cost of the permit in the first year, then reduce it to $100 in subsequent years. "We must do all we can to encourage vendors to register and enter the formal economy," Solis said in a statement. "That includes removing as many financial barriers as possible

that could hinder participation. These vendors are microentrepreneurs in the truest sense, and their net revenues may be such that even a fee of a few hundred dollars represents a significant burden. "I appreciate our Department of Economic Opportunity finding a way to waive the fees for the first year while greatly reducing them in the subsequent years. At the same time, it is critical that we also address the Department of Public Health fees."

The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligations secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of this Notice of Trustee’s Sale is estimated to be $542,063.03 (Estimated). However, prepayment premiums, accrued interest and advances will increase this figure prior to sale. Beneficiary’s bid at said sale may include all or part of said amount. In addition to cash, the Trustee will accept a cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the California Financial Code and authorized to do business in California, or other such funds as may be acceptable to the Trustee. In the event tender other than cash is accepted, the Trustee may withhold the issuance of the Trustee’s Deed Upon Sale until funds become available to the payee or endorsee as a matter of right. The property offered for sale excludes all funds held on account by the property receiver, if applicable. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. Notice to Potential Bidders If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a Trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a Trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same Lender may hold more than one mortgage or Deed of Trust on the property. Notice to Property Owner The sale date shown on this Notice of Sale may be postponed one or more times by the Mortgagee, Beneficiary, Trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about Trustee Sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call Auction.com at 800.280.2832 for information regarding the Trustee's Sale or visit the Internet Website address www. Auction.com for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, CA09000167-23-1. 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 NOTICE TO TENANT FOR FORECLOSURES AFTER JANUARY 1, 2021 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 www.Auction. com, using the file number assigned to this case CA09000167-23-1 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.

In the event tender other than cash is accepted, the Trustee may withhold the issuance of the Trustee’s Deed Upon Sale until funds become available to the payee or endorsee as a matter of right. The property offered for sale excludes all funds held on account by the property receiver, if applicable. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. Notice to Potential Bidders If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a Trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a Trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same Lender may hold more than one mortgage or Deed of Trust on the property. Notice to Property Owner The sale date shown on this Notice of Sale may be postponed one or more times by the Mortgagee, Beneficiary, Trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about Trustee Sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call In Source Logic at 702-659-7766 for information regarding the Trustee's Sale or visit the Internet Website address listed below for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, CA05000349-23-1. 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 NOTICE TO TENANT FOR FORECLOSURES AFTER JANUARY 1, 2021 You

Northwest intersection of Maine Avenue and Pacific Avenue and extends south of Maine Avenue

REQUEST:

A request for a tentative parcel map to consolidate six (6) lots and a vacated street into one (1) 94,634 square foot lot for the development of the Zocalo Civic Plaza project. The site consists of a zoning designation of Mixed Use 1 (MU-1) within the Downtown Transit Oriented Development (TOD) Specific Plan, 2016, located In Downtown Baldwin Park at the northwest intersection of Maine Avenue and Pacific Avenue and extends south of Maine Street; Applicant: City of Baldwin Park; Case Number: TPM 84199).

CEQA: Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), TPM 84199 was analyzed by the 2016 TOD Downtown Specific Plan EIR and Addendum as well as the traffic analysis prepared for this project. Once an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) has been certified for a project, the lead agency shall not require preparation of a subsequent EIR or supplemental EIR unless one of three triggering conditions exists: (1) substantial changes are proposed in the project that will require major revisions of the EIR, (2) substantial changes occur in circumstances under which the project is being undertaken that will require major revisions to the EIR, or (3) new information of substantial importance to the project that was not known and could have been known when the EIR was certified as complete becomes available, and this condition (1,2,or 3) also would lead to new or more significant impacts. (State CEQA Guidelines Section 15162; Public Resources Code Section 21166) The Addendum that was prepared on February 16, 2022, made minor modifications to the approved Specific Plan and resulted in no new significant impacts that were not already analyzed by the EIR. Also, the traffic analysis prepared on August 18, 2022, determined that the project would result in no significant impacts that were not already analyzed by the EIR. Therefore, no further environmental review is necessary per Public Resources Code Section 21166 and/or State CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 because none of the conditions in these sections are triggered by Tentative Parcel Map 84199.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale.

Endeavour shuttle lifted into new upright display By City News Service

T

he space shuttle Endeavour completed its final flight Tuesday, as California Science Center crews hoisted the retired orbiter into the air over Exposition Park and lowered it into place in a one-of-akind launch-ready vertical display. Endeavour, which made its last space flight 13 years ago and has been on display horizontally at the Science Center for more than a decade, was slowly moved Friday from its previous pavilion to a new position next to the under-construction Samuel Oschin Air and Space Center. The 122-foot-long shuttle was later outfitted with a "sling" attached to a 450-foot-tall crane. The

shuttle finally achieved its assisted "liftoff" late Monday night and early Tuesday morning, as the orbiter was hoisted up and over the wall of the new center, then lowered into launch position with two solid rocket boosters and a 65,000-pound external fuel tank known as ET-94, which were already in place. Endeavour was the final piece of the display, and its move completes the California Science Center's "Go For Stack" process of creating the launch-ready exhibition. When the display and the Oschin center are completed, the California Science Center will be home to the only vertical launchready display of a former NASA space shuttle in the

world. The lifting of the Endeavour into place was heavily reliant on calm weather. A similar lift of the 154-foot-tall ET-94 endured several delays due to high winds that developed in the area, and CSC officials were prepared to call an audible if similar conditions occurred Monday night, but the operation began and was completed as planned. The twin rocket boosters were secured in place in early January, combining the aft skirts, or base, with the rocket motors and nose cones the create a 149-foottall assembly. In the end, the display will stand roughly 20 stories in the air, surrounded by the 200,000-square-foot Samuel

Endeavour being lowered into place for the vertical display. | Screenshot courtesy of California Science Center/YouTube

Oschin Air and Space Center, which will nearly double the Science Center's educational exhibition space. The building will include

three multi-level galleries, themed for air, space and shuttle. The new facility will also house an events and exhibit center that will be

home to large-scale rotating exhibitions. An opening date for the $400 million center has not yet been determined.

"In the ensuing years, the city saw significant improvements with the installation of amenities such as sewers, paved streets, and electric street lighting," officials said. "Over the decades, amendments to the Charter helped modernize and improve city governance as times changed and advancements were made." The measures up for voter consideration do not impose new or increased taxes, according to the city. The measures also do not increase costs for utility ratepayers, officials said, noting that Measure R reduces by 4% the "utility transfer" that voters approved in 2020, officials said. To facilitate "financial transparency and public accountability," Measure R if enacted will align the Pasadena accounting method to with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. GAAP is federal regu-

lators' accounting standard of choice and is the standard for U.S.-based companies. "The proposed update to the accounting method will lead to improved financial management and the ability to allocate resources to essential services such as 911 response, fire, paramedic, public health, street repairs, and senior and homeless services," officials said. Supporters of the amendment listed on the city's website were Pasadena Mayor Victor Gordo, former Mayors Bill Bogaard and Terry Tornek, former City Manager Cynthia Kurtz and Pasadena Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Paul Little. No opponents were listed. Measure S would mandate that the City Council set limits by ordinance for contracts, purchases and claim approvals.

"It will maintain oversight, improve City response, and enhance efficiency in executing contracts," according to the city. "Measure S streamlines the procurement process and eliminates a burdensome process for a contractor/business owner and the City, allowing for more efficient handling of contracts to save time and money. The amendments will help identify inefficiencies, unnecessary expenses, and potential waste, ensuring that public funds are used wisely and projects are executed within budget." Measure T seeks to create alternative methods for choosing contractors that are "more efficient, transparent, and accountable for bidding and delivering public improvements," officials said. The amendment's goal is to "attract a broader range of vendors and contractors, foster-

ing increased competition, leading to better-quality services and innovative solutions, and ensuring the best value for its investments." Measure T's "alternative project delivery method" aims to speed up project completion times, allowing the city "to adapt to industry best practices that lead to practical and modern approaches to project management and contract selection while complying with ... regulations," officials

said. "Additionally, allowing for additional contract selection methods, particularly those that improve the chances of hiring local businesses, contributing to the community’s economic development, creating job opportunities, and stimulating our local economy." Supporters for Measures S and T were Gordo, Bogaard, local business owner Gale Kohl, Kurtz and Little. No opponents were listed. The proposed measures

each have accountability provisions that include public disclosure of all spending and annual financial audits while updating outdated language and codes, according to the city.
