ire water conditions, missed deadlines and uncertainty on the Colorado River are complicating critical water decisions in California. No single state, water agency or federal ofﬁcial has shown the power, or the will, to break the deadlock among Colorado River basin states over how to share the dwindling supplies. Years of fraught negotiations have failed to yield consensus even as major reservoir storage plummets to record lows — ratcheting up the tensions, and the stakes, for the states’ negotiators. Now, key agreements for managing the river are expiring at the end of this year. These include agreements reached in 2007 that lasted nearly two decades, which took fewer than three years to craft. This round of talks has already taken longer — and,

so far, produced nothing so durable. The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, the federal steward for the river under the Department of the Interior, last week released a 10-year framework that establishes rough parameters for managing the river, but imposes no speciﬁc long-term plan. The federal provisions include cuts of up to 40% to the shared supply of California, Arizona and Nevada in the lower basin. They also allow releases from Lake Powell, which collects ﬂows from the upper basin, to dip low enough they risk violating a legally required threshold for water deliveries to downstream states. These dramatic cuts are an upper limit for future operations: The federal government plans to roll out more detailed management plans every two years if the states continue their

impasse. The agency will release the first of those plans any day, imposing cuts in the downstream states of California, Arizona and Nevada — an estimated 10% cut to California’s supply through 2028, or roughly 440,000 acre-feet a year. No mandatory cuts are expected in the upper basin states of Colorado, Wyoming, Utah and New Mexico, according to those involved in negotiations. The Los Angeles Times first reported the split. It reflects the limits of federal power and political will: The Interior Department can force cuts in the lower basin, but has no comparable authority to impose cuts in the upper basin states — the limits of which the Congressional Research Service said are See Colorado River Page 03

the subject of “ongoing debate.” This isn’t the long-term plan that California’s water suppliers were hoping for. Building anything to store, move or make more water typically takes decades and billions of dollars. Without longerterm certainty about how states will share the river’s water supply among 40 million people, millions of acres of agriculture, and two states in Mexico — cities and irrigation providers are struggling to plan how to close the gaps. “A cut is never fun, but you can deal with it. But not if you say, ‘Well, we have a cut here, and then maybe a cut in two years, and maybe another cut in two more years,’” said Bill Hasencamp, Metropolitan Water District’s manager of

rcadia City Councilwoman Sharon Kwan denied ties to companies owned by the Chinese government as her council colleagues agreed to her request for a public hearing about the recent allegations. At the council meeting Tuesday, Mayor Pro Tem David Fu and Councilman John Han agreed to Kwan’s request for a future agenda item to address the matter. A date for the hearing is not set, but Fu said it would be “soon,” possibly Oct. 5. An infographic circulating online reported Kwan has seats on the boards of directors of “U.S. subsidiaries of a major Chinese energy company,” Shandong Xinchao Energy Corp. According to the digital flyer that Fu said he “received online,” in July 2025 Kwan was appointed to the board of several U.S. subsidiaries of Shandong Xinchao. Two months prior, Inner Mongolia Yitai Coal Co. acquired controlling interest in Shandong Xinchao, leading to a board shake-up and eventual lawsuits in Delaware and Nevada. “Regarding the directorship Councilmember David Fu is questioning, I served as a director of U.S. companies operating in Texas and received zero compensation — no salary, director fee, consulting fee or other payment,” Kwan said in an email to HeySoCal.com. “I am not aware of these companies ever having business before the Arcadia City Council or benefiting from any vote I cast. I welcome an independent review of my directorship and financial disclosures.” According to The New York Times and other published See Kwan Page 02

reports, the Inner Mongolia Yitai is not a state-owned entity. Its similarly named parent company started in 1988 with small government backing, but the local government fully restructured it in 2001, the Times reported. Fu said Kwan’s “participation in Chinese-owned companies ... appear to be very similar to the allegations against our former Mayor Eileen Wang,” who resigned earlier this year after pleading guilty to participating in an intelligence operation orchestrated by the Chinese military. “I think that what we would like to know is why she did not come forward to discuss these things until her role on this board of directors was disclosed to the public,” Fu said via email. “It does seem strange that she came forward at a very late point in time, after she has been making a lot of attacks against the city and the City Council for failing to act to investigate Eileen Wang, despite the explanation that we are not permitted to take that action under either the City Charter or applicable federal and state law. Given the appearance of her situation, it certainly seems like she would be subject to the same kind of investigation.” Kwan emphatically denied the allegations. “Let me be unequivocal: I have no ties to the Chinese Communist Party or any foreign government,” Kwan said. She added that “Fu’s actions raise a much larger question about his commitment to transparency. When concerns involving Eileen Wang arose, I asked from the Council dais to bring the matter forward for public

West Nile virus: Positive mosquito samples surge in SGV By Staff

ore than 105 mosquito samples revealed West Nile virus activity in the San Gabriel Valley has surpassed the five-year average, prompting officials Thursday to urge residents to take precautions against mosquito bites. The San Gabriel Valley Mosquito and Vector Control District reported the viruspositive samples were collected in cities and unincorporated neighborhoods throughout its service area. District officials said local and state agencies are also seeing higher-than-average West Nile virus detection. The virus is transmitted through the bite of an infected Culex mosquito,

which is most active during dusk and dawn. Vector control technicians are monitoring and treating known mosquito sources, searching for additional sources in areas that have shown elevated mosquito activity and increasing surveillance, officials said. “Although current WNV activity is higher than usual, our teams are purposely equipped to deal with this challenge,” the district’s Director of Scientific Programs Tristan Hallum said in a statement. “We strongly encourage residents to tip out any stagnant water around their homes, toss out any unused containers that can collect water, and protect themselves with

mosquito repellent when outdoors during this holiday weekend.” There is no human vaccine or cure for West Nile virus,

officials said. Residents should eliminate standing water from rain gutters, buckets, discarded tires and other containers,

the district advised. Properly maintaining swimming pools, spas and ponds and changing water in pet dishes and birdbaths weekly are also antimosquito steps to take. When outdoors, residents were also encouraged to use mosquito repellent containing DEET, Picaridin, IR3535 or oil of lemon eucalyptus and wear light-colored, longsleeved shirts and long pants. The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health reported that roughly 1 in 5 people infected with West Nile virus develop symptoms that can include fever, headache, body aches, nausea or a skin rash. Approximately 1 in 150 virus cases develops into severe symptoms.

People older than 50 and those with chronic health problems or compromised immune systems are at greater risk of severe illness, according to the Public Health Department. The local Mosquito and Vector Control District includes 26 cities and unincorporated Altadena, Bassett, Kinneola and Mayflower Village. Residents can report mosquito problems or request more information from the district at 626-814-9466. VectorSurv Maps provide a look at this year’s WNV activity throughout LA County and California.

Pasadena Symphony announces 2026-27 Classics season By City News Service

he Pasadena Symphony will present five programs featuring works by Beethoven, Brahms, Bach and other composers during its 2026- 27 Classics season under Music Director Brett Mitchell. “I’m so pleased during my third season as Music Director of the Pasadena Symphony to continue this great musical journey we’ve been sharing,” Mitchell said. “From timeless works by Bach, Beethoven, Brahms, Rachmaninoff, and Tchaikovsky to more contemporary masterpieces by Joan Tower, Carlos Simon, Jennifer Higdon, and Kevin

Puts, our 2026/27 season has something for every lover of orchestral music, and the orchestra and I can’t wait to share it with you.” The season is set to open Oct. 24 at Ambassador Auditorium with Tower’s “Made in America,” inspired by “America the Beautiful” and presented as part of the orchestra’s commemoration of America’s 250th anniversary. Violinist Benjamin Beilman will perform Barber’s Violin Concerto, and the program will conclude with Brahms’ Symphony No. 1. The Nov. 14 program will feature Beethoven’s Symphony No. 7 and Elgar’s

Cello Concerto performed by Pasadena Symphony Principal Cellist Michael Kaufman.

The program also will include Carlos Simon’s “Fate Now Conquers.”

On Feb. 13, Mitchell will conduct Jennifer Higdon’s “blue cathedral” and Stravinsky’s “The Firebird” Suite, while pianist Clayton Stephenson, a 2025 Sphinx Medal of Excellence winner, will perform Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2. Violinist Simone Porter will return March 20 to perform Vivaldi’s “The Four Seasons.” The program also will include Stravinsky’s “Dumbarton Oaks” and Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto No. 3. The season will conclude May 1 with violinist Paul Huang making his Pasadena debut to perform Tchai-

kovsky’s Violin Concerto. The program also will feature Kevin Puts’ “Millennium Canons” and Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 5, marking the latter work’s return to the Pasadena Symphony stage after more than a decade. Before each performance, KUSC Classical California’s Brian Lauritzen will host a pre-concert conversation with Mitchell and special guests, including soloists and composers. All five programs will be performed at Ambassador Auditorium, 131 S. St. John Ave., with performances at 2 and 8 p.m.

Kwan discussion. I received no support, and David Fu criticized me for raising the issue. ... “That should have taught us an important lesson: when credible questions about foreign influence arise, examine the facts instead of attacking the person asking the questions.” Fu noted the timing of Kwan’s directorships with the Wang controversy. “It appears Sharon was a board member in 2025, if not earlier,” Fu said, referencing the lawsuits reported in the infographic. “This was during the time that Sharon claims that ‘everyone knew’ that Eileen was under a cloud of suspicion,” Fu said. “Sharon is fond of her self-proclaimed status as ‘the whistleblower’ in the Eileen Wang fiasco — which

was of course nonsense; she was promoting Eileen to be on the Olympic Committee in 2025, based on her bilingual status and ‘the international’ thing. “Sharon is equally fond of screaming ‘transparency’ from the rooftops,” Fu continued. “I would think that the people of Arcadia would have wanted to know that despite Sharon’s work for a state-owned company under the control of the Chinese government and Communist Party, she was not somehow compromised, and that Sharon would share that view.” Kwan pointed to recent FBI raids involving a campaign donor and producer of campaign materials for Arcadia Mayor Paul Cheng and Councilman Michael Cao, respectively. James Su, CEO of EDI Media whose home and

office were raided in late July, also donated $500 to Wang’s 2022 campaign. “A search warrant is not proof of wrongdoing, but ... those relationships deserve examination,” Kwan countered. “That is why I have now asked twice from the Council dais for a future agenda discussion concerning foreign influence, campaign contributions and these relationships. I included myself. “Twice I asked. Twice I received no supporting vote. ... I am not accusing Fu, Cheng, Cao or James Su of committing a crime. I am asking for an independent examination of the facts,” Kwan said. “Investigate me first. I volunteer to go first. “Review my directorship, my Form 700 and whether I ever used my council position to benefit these compa-

nies. Investigate whether I have any connection to the (Chinese Communist Party). Then apply exactly the same standard to every councilmember.” Council members and City Attorney Michael Maurer have said the local government does not have the power to investigate campaign finance and deferred to the state’s Fair Political Practices

Commission as the appropriate agency for such an audit. On the online “unsigned poster” Fu referenced, Kwan said it is “built around insinuations (and) is not evidence.” Fu said he questions if Kwan’s “duties or performance (are) influenced by outside forces? If (Wang) was subject to heightened scrutiny because she was apparently coordinating

publicity and propaganda with the Chinese government, then by operating a Chinese government-owned subsidiary engaged in energy production and exploration, is Sharon also subject to some kind of influence by her superiors in Beijing?” Council meetings are available live and archived on the city’s website via tinyurl. com/sr9nedyh.

Colorado River resources. “We need to plan for our future. And this deal does not let us do that.” The future of Southern California’s water In California, where the availability of water is never certain, nature-defying engineering keeps dry parts of the state flush with water even when little falls from the sky. Much of that engineering converges around one Southern California supplier: the Metropolitan Water District. The giant wholesaler imports water from Northern California and the Colorado River to supply cities and other retailers serving 19 million people across six counties. Metropolitan’s imports are so central to the region that when its Northern California supplies dropped to a trickle during the most recent drought, 6 million Southern Californians faced unprecedented water restrictions in 2022. Southern California isn’t facing such serious shortfalls again yet. But uncertainty over the Colorado River compounds the risks the next drought will bring. “There’s a good chance it’ll be as bad as it’s been, and there’s a reasonable chance that it’ll be worse,” said Hasencamp’s colleague, Keith Nobriga, whose job as an operations manager at Metropolitan is helping the district prepare for the future amid climate change. The uncertainty also throws a wrench in Gov. Gavin Newsom’s administration’s water machinations to the north. Metropolitan’s board will play an outsized role in deciding the fates of Sites Reservoir and the Delta tunnel because of the district’s water needs and spending power. Both multibillion-dollar projects, decades in the making, aim to send more of Northern California’s water south. Metropolitan is also planning a large-scale water recycling and reuse program, called Pure Water Southern California, with the Los Angeles County Sanitation Districts. Metropolitan has already committed hundreds of millions of dollars to the Delta

tunnel’s planning costs and about $31 million for Sites. The board hasn’t committed to receiving water or contributing to construction for either yet, though board votes on whether to approve the tunnel and recycled water project could come as soon as next year. Subtracting one part of the equation, such as the Colorado River, could change the calculus for the others. But Metropolitan has to know how much water it stands to lose, and for how long. The consequences of picking the wrong path could leave Southern California thirsty during the next drought, on one hand, or unnecessarily increase water rates, on the other. Nobriga compares his job to insurance planning. The costs of nudging these water projects along, he says, are like paying an insurance premium. “We’ll keep these projects alive. We’ll keep looking down the road,” he said. “And if it gets to a point where we really think these droughts are imminent, then we’ll … construct and pay the big money for one or several of these projects. And we don’t know which ones yet.” Agriculture in limbo California uses the largest share of the Colorado River’s water among the states. And the Imperial Irrigation District uses the largest share of that to supply half a million acres of alfalfa, grasses, winter vegetables and other crops in the southeast corner of the state. As climate change and a megadrought plunged the Colorado River into its driest decades in over a century, the Biden administration struck a deal with the Imperial Irrigation District, trading more than half a billion federal dollars for short-term water conservation. Growers cut irrigation to their alfalfa and other forage crops for weeks at a time, and the district conserved enough water to add more than 12 feet to Lake Mead on the Colorado River, according to Tina Shields, water manager for the irrigation district. Now, those conservation programs are coming to the end of their funding and

regulatory lifetimes. Starting new ones would require new plans and approvals to address the environmental impact of reduced irrigation runoff that feeds the Salton Sea. Seeking those permits and environmental approvals “needs to be done on a longer term, not on a two-year term,” Shields said. “Because it’ll take us at least a year to negotiate, probably longer, the environmental actions necessary to move forward.” In the meantime, negotiations are ongoing with other California water users about how they’ll share the coming cuts, including who is going to pay for it, Shields said. The district has not yet committed to anything. “The district’s perspective is: We’ve done a lot. We’re doing a lot. It’s challenging to do more,” she said. Art of the deal Though the U.S. Department of the Interior has not yet released its plan for the river’s next two years, those involved in negotiations expect that it will call for reductions and conservation in California, Arizona and Nevada similar to what the states proposed in May. The three lower-basin states then must agree among themselves and with the federal government on how to implement it. After that, individual water suppliers in California will seek approvals from their boards for their share of the cuts. Jay Weiner, an attorney representing the Fort Yuma Quechan Indian Tribe, whose reservation lies on both sides of the Colorado River, compared the plan to a BandAid, not a long-term path to sustainability. “To a large extent,” Weiner said, “it leaves us at the mercy of this coming winter.” The Trump administration relied on the states reaching consensus rather than imposing terms — an approach that so far hasn’t broken the deadlock. Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs called for the federal government to step in and broker a deal. But federal leverage looks different in the upper and lower basins. Lower basin stakeholders say there

are other strings the federal government could pull upstream, such as forcing water out of reservoirs, but isn’t. And cloistered negotiations and hardline positions among negotiators have driven an impasse. Arizona negotiator Tom Buschatzke publicly lambasted the upper basin in The Denver Post for failing to propose “One. Single. Gallon.” of mandatory, verifiable reductions. Colorado negotiator Becky Mitchell wrote in The Colorado Sun that had the lower basin states lived within their means, “the reservoirs would not be in crisis today.” Elizabeth Koebele, a political science professor at the University of Nevada, Reno said that negotiations have been most productive when participants had strong working relationships. Without clear federal leadership, she said, the same conflicts keep resurfacing. The fraying relationships, she said, could stem from turnover. But years of constant crisis have also worn people down. “We have been governing in crisis for a long time, and so every time we meet at the table, there’s this big problem to solve,” she said. “The house is on fire.” While the lower basin may sue the upper over deliveries that dip below a legally required threshold, both sides would risk the uncertain outcomes of litigation. “In essence, this federal action has 40 million people living from paycheck to paycheck on water supply,” said Mark Gold, an environmental scientist and board member of the Metropolitan Water District. That paycheck comes due again in two years with the same states, and the same asymmetry of power, still in place. Until then, the interior secretary can still force deeper cuts on the lower basin. No one, right now, is willing to force the upper basin to do the same.

California kills bill regulating Flock cameras even as public rage grows By Khari Johnson, CalMatters This story was originally published by CalMatters. Sign up for their newsletters.

mid a growing nationwide backlash against license-plate cameras, California this week, for the fifth year running, failed to enact regulations on the technology. A bill in the Legislature would have strengthened privacy protections on how license plate data is collected and shared. It also would have guarded against misuse of automated license plate readers by law enforcement officers. But after clearing the state senate the bill was stopped in the Assembly by majority leader Cecilia Aguiar-Curry on Monday, the final day the Legislature meets this year, before it could be introduced for a floor vote. It was one of a handful of bills that enjoyed strong support from lawmakers and looked poised to pass but died under mysterious circumstances. All the bills California lawmakers have proposed since 2022 to reform or update regulations on

California lawmakers have tried and failed five times since 2022 to regulate technology that tracks license plates. Meanwhile, a national backlash against the tech has gained momentum. A protester holds a sign while demonstrating on the corner of Broadway and 14th Street in Oakland on Aug. 20, 2026.

license plate tracking by law enforcement agencies have failed to pass or become law. A similar bill passed last year but was vetoed by Gov. Gavin Newsom. “It’s a really disappointing outcome at a time when

there is bipartisan concern about this mass surveillance tool,” UC Berkeley Center for Law & Technology codirector Catherine Crump told CalMatters. Crump testified in support of the bill in July. Lawmakers pushing

for more regulation of the readers point to police misuse of the data they collect, including illegally using it to help federal immigration enforcers and stalking people. But law enforcement agencies say many of the proposed regulations would cripple a tool they say has helped solve a wide range of crimes. “We were concerned that this bill was going to limit the utility of ALPR data to solve crimes, find missing persons, exonerate innocent individuals, and so the fact that it did not pass, we’re glad for that,” California State Sheriff’s Association legislative director Cory Salzillo told CalMatters. Mounting privacy concerns Failure to pass the bill or even bring it up for a final vote comes at a time when opposition to license plate readers is growing in and beyond California. Police in

Los Angeles and Redwood City and elected officials in California localities like El Cerrito and Campbell have ended contracts with the license plate reader company Flock Safety in recent weeks. Nationwide, more than 200 cities or law enforcement agencies ended license plate reader contracts in August, more than any other month since 2021, according to Secure Justice, a group led by Brian Hofer, a Bay Area privacy advocate who was held at gunpoint after a license plate reader incorrectly told sheriff’s deputies he was driving a stolen car. License plate readers use cameras and artificial intelligence to log the plate numbers of passing cars. The readers are joined into networks used by law enforcement and information from them can be shared locally or nationwide. See Flock cameras Page 05

The tech can locate criminal suspects or missing persons, but it’s also been tied to police misconduct and immigration enforcement in violation of state law. More than 230 California police or sheriff’s departments currently use license plate readers, according to bill author Senator Sabrina Cervantes, a Democrat from Riverside. “It’s unfortunate that Senate Bill 1013 did not get the chance to be voted on before the deadline passed, but I look forward to continuing to fight for the privacy rights of Californians next year,” she wrote in a statement shared with CalMatters. Cervantes argued in July that protections in the bill are necessary to prevent unlawful data sharing, because license plate readers routinely collect information about the movement of millions of law-abiding Californians, and to stop other forms of police misconduct. Lawmakers say license plate readers were unlawfully used by law enforcement officers to stalk or harass private citizens in Los Angeles, Marin, Orange, Riverside, Sacramento, San Diego, and Shasta counties. Enforcement agencies outside of California have put the technology to even more controversial use. Oakland activist Crystal Zermeño, who attended a protest against the technology outside City Hall last month, said she’s concerned about the tech being used to track women who get abortions or by federal authorities. After Cervantes’ bill died, she asked, “How could we not as a state have the political

NBA fines Clippers $30M, suspends owner Ballmer over salary cap violations By City News Service

he NBA fined the Los Angeles Clippers $30 million and suspended owner Steve Ballmer from all league and team activities for a year Wednesday after finding the team circumvented league salary cap rules by arranging outside endorsement deals for star forward Kawhi Leonard and paying his personal expenses. The league also stripped the Clippers of five firstround draft picks, one each from 2029-33. Clippers President of Business Operations Gillian Zucker was suspended without pay for a year, while President of Basketball Operations Lawrence Frank was suspended without pay for six months. Leonard was personally fined $700,000. “The NBA’s collectively bargained system for determining player compensation is a fundamental component of the basketball competi-

tion that the league oversees for the benefit of the teams and players and ultimately the fans,” NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said in a statement. “I am deeply disappointed by the flagrant violations of our rules and by the Clippers’ institutional and leadership failures that led to this misconduct. The severity of the penalties reflects the seriousness of the violations.” The Clippers issued a statement Wednesday afternoon saying team officials “vehemently reject the NBA’s findings, which are the result of a “heavily biased investigation seeking to justify a predetermined narrative rather than facts and evidence.” “What the league told us privately differs from what it announced today publicly, and they have not held themselves close to the standard Commissioner Silver set at the start of this investigation to ensure its fairness and

accuracy,” according to the team. “For the past year, we cooperated fully and in good faith and we will now fight just as hard to demonstrate our innocence. “We intend to vigorously challenge these findings and penalties through every avenue available to us and look forward to an ethical and impartial arbitration process.”

Ballmer and the Clippers have denied any wrongdoing in connection with the team’s signing of Leonard in 2019. But the league determined through an independent investigation that the team facilitated so-called endorsement agreements between Leonard and four companies — Aspiration Partners, Boingo Wireless, Daktronics

and Lockton Insurance. According to the league, the team induced the companies “to enter into these agreements by offering them business from the team.” The team also paid personal expenses for Leonard and his representatives and failed “to report improper solicitations for off-court income opportunities made on Mr. Leonard’s behalf through his thenbusiness manager, Dennis Robertson.” The league’s investigation found that Leonard “violated the circumvention rules by pressuring the Clippers to assist him in obtaining offcourt income opportunities, successfully obtaining those opportunities, and failing to reimburse payments by the Clippers for personal expenses.” In a statement issued through his new agent, Harrison Gaines, Leonard said, “Integrity and respect for this

game are fundamental to who I am. I accept full responsibility for lapses in judgment by people within my inner circle and regret the distraction this situation has caused the fans and my family. I entered into my contract with the Clippers as well as the agreements in question in good faith, fully committed to fulfilling my obligations and with no knowledge of any intent on anyone’s part to circumvent the salary cap. “For 15 years, my priority has been giving everything to my family, the game, and those I share the court with. As I return to Toronto, I am focused on what I can control, closing this chapter, and moving forward with a clean slate,” he said. The Clippers in June reached an agreement to trade Leonard to the Toronto Raptors, but the deal was put on hold pending the outcome of the league’s investigation.

Southern Californians urged to report monarch butterfly sightings By City News Service

outhern California residents were encouraged Wednesday to report sightings of western monarch butterflies as part of an effort to help scientists track the species’ sharply declining population during California Biodiversity Day activities. The California State Parks Foundation is asking residents to photograph monarch butterflies or caterpillars and upload the observations using the free iNaturalist app. California Biodiversity Day will be observed from Saturday through Sept. 13. Information collected

through the observations will help scientists determine where western monarchs are at different times of the year and contribute to the upcoming 30th annual Western Monarch Count. Millions of western monarchs once returned to coastal California each year, but their population has fallen dramatically in recent decades because of factors including climate change, habitat loss, pesticides and disease, according to the foundation. The most recent Western Monarch Count found a

began in 1997. Overwintering is the period when monarchs spend the winter in protected groves, where they conserve energy before mating and migrating north in the spring. “The western monarch butterfly is among the most beloved species in our state,” Randy Widera, director of programs for the California State Parks Foundation, said in the announcement. “Californians can play a critical role in preserving our western monarch butterfly population by advocating for the protection of butterfly

habitats and helping scientists track butterfly locations.” Southern California state parks containing western monarch overwintering groves include Point Mugu and Leo Carrillo state parks, Doheny State Beach, San Clemente State Park and Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve. State parks have hosted at least 20% of the western monarch population at overwintering sites during the 26 years analyzed by the foundation, and in some years the figure has exceeded 50%.

Office has contacted 18 law enforcement agencies about possible or known violations of Senate Bill 34 and filed a lawsuit against the city of El Cajon near San Diego to stop the practice. There are roughly 70 documented instances nationwide where police officers misused automated license plate readers to do things like track their wives, stalk former partners or pursue love interests, according to the Washington Post, including former Riverside County sheriff’s deputy Alexander Vanny, who used Flock

to stalk his former fiancée and was sentenced to six years in prison in February. The technology can also inaccurately label some drivers as criminal suspects, leading to potentially violent confrontations. A Los Angeles Police Department audit released in July found that one out of three vehicles identified as stolen by Flock cameras were inaccurately identified.

Flock cameras will to do this in a moment when all of these [federal immigration enforcement] attacks are happening and we have limited defense?” Cervantes’ Senate Bill 1013 would have restricted state law enforcement agencies to using license plate data only for locating criminal suspects or missing people, would have made police take privacy and cybersecurity training, would have restricted sharing with national databases by default, and would have required the attorney general’s office carry out random audits of

license plate reader activity for misuse. Had the bill come up for a vote, it still might have died, given support for the readers as tools of law and order. Nearly 40 law enforcement agencies and police unions opposed the bill. “It’s a really disappointing outcome at a time when there is bipartisan concern about this mass surveillance tool.”Catherine Crump, UC Berkeley Center for Law & Technology Regulations in the measure had already been weakened, trading a require-

ment that police delete license plate data after 30 days for one that they “archive” it after 60 days, at which point they would need to obtain a warrant to search the data, unless it was connected to an active investigation or vehicle hunt. Police argued that old license plate data had helped solve cold cases and missing people investigations, and some, like the California State Sheriff’s Association, opposed the bill even after it was watered down. Newsom vetoed last year’s bill in part because it would have ordered police to

delete license plate data after 60 days. CalMatters reporting last year and this year found that local law enforcement agencies across Southern California repeatedly shared information with federal immigration agencies, a violation of a state law. A 2020 state audit and investigation by Attorney General Rob Bonta found similar violations of state law that prohibits sharing license plate reader data with out-of-state or federal law enforcement agencies.

UCLA project, immigrant rights group sues DHS over ‘threat’ to voters By City News Service

he UCLA Voting Rights Project and others are suing the Trump administration, alleging the government’s use of federal databases to erroneously target naturalized citizens who are eligible to register to vote interferes with free and fair elections, according to court papers obtained Thursday. Filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, the plaintiffs’ case argues that the Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Justice are interfering with the election process “by using unlawful and inaccurate federal databases to bolster accusations of voter fraud and overreach in election administration,” according to the complaint. The suit follows claims by the White House that more than 278,000 noncitizens are registered to vote nationwide, including 190,832 in California. According to the lawsuit, federal officials have not disclosed the methodology or evidence supporting those figures. A DHS spokesperson said the department’s process was fair. “The department accessed publicly available data from states’ voter rolls and cross-referenced them

with known illegal aliens in our systems,” according to the spokesperson. “It’s not rocket science; it’s an easy step to secure our elections.” DHS stated it is “laserfocused on prosecuting and removing aliens who vote and preventing the dilution of the votes of U.S. citizens. Our message to aliens who vote in American elections is clear: We will find you, arrest you and you will face the consequences -- including criminal charges and deportation.” The lawsuit argues that DHS’s own communications have contradicted such claims. After the agency alleged that nearly 16,000 noncitizens were registered to vote in Nevada, a department official reportedly acknowledged that the figure represented a “ceiling” and that each voter would need to be manually reviewed. DHS subsequently provided Nevada officials with 185 identification numbers associated with voters, the agency stated it was confident were noncitizens. The lawsuit was filed Wednesday by the UCLA Voting Rights Project, joined by gubernatorial candidate Xavier Becerra, the Los Angeles-based Coalition for Humane Immigrant

Rights, and Pedro Trujillo, a naturalized U.S. citizen and registered California voter who lives in Los Angeles and is director of organizing at CHIRLA. “Naturalized citizens, like my mother, are not second-class citizens,” Becerra, voting rights attorney and senior advisor for the VRP and co-counsel in the case, said in a statement. “They have the right to exercise their vote just like all citizens. The Trump administration’s attacks on voting are premeditated, and their schemes to interfere in our November third elections are predictable. Today, we file this action against Donald Trump to defend voters like my mom who believe in free and fair elections.” The lawsuit alleges that the administration may be comparing voter rolls with undisclosed government databases. Because those systems may not reflect when a lawful permanent resident later becomes a U.S. citizen, the complaint argues that databasematching could produce false results that disproportionately affect naturalized voters. Several states are now poised to lose federal funding if they refuse to match their voter rolls

against a system the complaint says is notorious for mislabeling valid voters

as noncitizens. The federal officials have also threatened election officials with

prosecution if they knowingly retain noncitizens on their voter rolls.

New driving game aims to make Southern California teens safer By City News Service

eenagers and soon-tobe drivers in Southern California and across the state can use a new free online driving simulation designed to help young motorists practice making safe decisions behind the wheel, state officials announced Monday. The California Office of Traffic Safety and Caltrans released “The Road Ahead,” a web-based game that places users in simulated driving situations involving distracted driving, speeding and impaired driving. The simulation uses firstperson scenarios in which players make decisions and see the consequences of their choices, according to the agencies. “Teens are still developing the skills and experience they need to navigate the new, exciting milestone of driving,” OTS Director Stephanie Dougherty said. “’The Road Ahead’ is another tool that helps young drivers

step into realistic driving scenarios, make consequential choices and immediately see how those decisions play out.” State officials said teenagers face an elevated crash risk because of factors including inexperience, inaccurate perceptions of risk and overestimating their driving abilities. In 2024, 451 California drivers between the ages of 15 and 20 were involved in fatal traffic crashes, according to OTS. Nationally, 3,208 people were killed in crashes involving distracted driving that year, including 186 teenagers between 15 and 19. The simulation includes three scenarios. “One Look Away” focuses on distracted driving and challenges users to respond to the temptation to check text messages while behind the wheel. “Caught Up in It” focuses on peer pressure to speed while running late, while

“One More Drive” addresses the decision to drive while impaired. Each scenario concludes with safety tips, resources and public service announcements, including two videos created by teenagers focusing on distracted and impaired driving. “`The Road Ahead’ is an engaging, interactive teaching tool that equips new and soonto-be drivers with the skills needed to become conscientious motorists,” Caltrans Director Dina El-Tawansy said. “This practical, videobased experience reminds teens and younger drivers that good choices behind the wheel (create) safer roadways for themselves, road crews and everyone traveling through California.” The agencies also developed a user guide explaining how individuals and groups can use the simulation, along with technical and browser information.

OTS provided nearly $3.5 million during the past year to the California Highway Patrol to expand teen impaired-driving education statewide through programs including Every 15 Minutes and to support distracted-

driving education and the CHP’s Start Smart program, officials said. “Getting behind the wheel is a serious responsibility that demands sound judgment and the ability to adapt to changing conditions,” CHP

Commissioner Sean Duryee said. “These skills develop over time through practice.” The simulation is available free to teenagers, parents, educators, mentors and other California drivers at TheRoadAhead.GoSafelyCA.org.

Trustee Notices NOTICE OF TRUSTEE’S SALE TS No. CA-25-1016772-NJ Order No.: CLRINS25849478 YOU ARE IN DEFAULT UNDER A DEED OF TRUST DATED 8/18/2016. UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDING AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. A public auction sale to the highest bidder for cash, or cash equivalent if deemed acceptable to the trustee, cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, check drawn by state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, or savings association, or savings bank specified in Section 5102 to the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state, will be held by duly appointed trustee.

Trustor(s): IVAN VELIZ, A MARRIED MAN, AS HIS SOLE AND SEPARATE PROPERTY Recorded: 8/22/2016 as Instrument No. 20160995070 of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of LOS ANGELES County, California; Date of Sale: 10/1/2026 at 09:00 AM Place of Sale: At the Doubletree Hotel Los Angeles-Norwalk, 13111 Sycamore Drive, Norwalk, CA 90650, in the Vineyard Ballroom Amount of unpaid balance and other charges: $371,153.15 The purported property address is: 106 S TORREON AVE, AZUSA, CA 91702 Assessor’s Parcel No. : 8615-025-002 All bidders, at the date, time, and place of the scheduled sale, will be required to show satisfactory support to the auctioneer of their ability to pay the amount they intend to bid, unless

arrangements have been made with the trustee prior to the scheduled sale. 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 800280-2832 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this internet website http://www.qualityloan.com, using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-25-1016772-NJ. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the internet website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call 866-645-7711, or visit this internet website http://www.qualityloan.com, using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-25-1016772-NJ to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase. NOTICE TO PROSPECTIVE OWNER-OCCUPANT: Any prospective owner-occupant as defined in Section 2924m of the California Civil Code who is the last and highest bidder at the trustee’s sale shall provide the required affidavit or declaration of eligibility to the auctioneer at the trustee’s sale or shall have it delivered to QUALITY LOAN SERVICE CORPORATION by 5 p.m. on the next business day following the trustee’s sale at the address set forth in the below signature block. NOTICE TO PROSPECTIVE POST-SALE OVER BIDDERS: For postsale information in accordance with Section 2924m(e) of the California Civil Code, use file number CA-25-1016772-NJ and call (866) 645-7711 or login to: http://www. qualityloan.com. The above statutorily mandated notices to Tenant, Prospective Owner-Occupant, and Prospective PostSale Over Bidders are brief summaries of what may be required under Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. Compliance with all relevant provisions will be required. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the sale is set aside for any reason, including if the Trustee is unable to convey title, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the monies paid to the Trustee. This shall be the Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy. The purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Trustor, the Trustee, the Beneficiary, the Beneficiary’s Agent, or the Beneficiary’s Attorney. If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may have been released of personal liability for this loan in which case this letter is intended to exercise the note holders right’s against the real property only.

Glendale City Notices NOTICE OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR DECISION ADMINISTRATIVE USE PERMIT CASE NO. PAUP-006596-2026 LOCATION:

801 NORTH CENTRAL AVENUE (ALMA)

APPLICANTS:

Blake & Ayaz and Arman Bazikian

ZONE:

“(C2)” - Community Commercial

LEGAL DESCRIPTION:

Lot 99 and a Portion of Lots 96 and 100, of Pioneer Investment & Trust Co’s Glendale Place, as per Map Book 8, Pages 122-123

APNs:

5636-013-012 & 5636-013-162

PROJECT DESCRIPTION The applicant is requesting an approval for an Administrative Use Permit (AUP) to allow the on-site sale, service, and consumption of alcoholic beverages, including the on-site sale of beer and wine for off-site consumption (Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control License Type 47), within a 4,846 square-foot (SF) full-service restaurant (ALMA), in conjunction with tenant improvements and exterior remodeling, located in the Community Commercial (C2) Zone, Height District II. CODE REQUIRES 1) The sale of alcoholic beverages requires an Administrative Use Permit in the C2 Zone (Glendale Municipal Code §30.12.020, Table 30.12-A). APPLICANT’S PROPOSAL 1) To allow the sale of beer, wine, and distilled spirits for consumption on the licensed premises, including the sale of beer and wine for consumption off the licensed premises (California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control License Type 47) under a new operator of a remodeled 4,846-square-foot (SF) full-service restaurant. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION The project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as a Class 1 “Existing Facilities” exemption per Section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines because the discretionary permit request involves allowing on-site sale, service, and consumption of alcoholic beverages, including the on-site sale of beer and wine for off-site consumption, within a remodeled full-service restaurant. The project also proposes exterior remodeling and a 2,871-square-foot tenant improvement for a new operator within an existing restaurant tenant space. These improvements will not increase the building’s floor area by more than 50 percent or 2,500 square feet, whichever is less. Additionally, the property does not appear eligible for historic designation at the federal, state, or local level and is therefore not considered a historic resource under CEQA. PENDING DECISION AND COMMENTS: Copies of plans, staff analysis, and the proposed decision letter are available at GlendaleCA.gov/planning/pending-decisions. If you would like to review plans, submit comments, or be notified of the decision, please contact case planner Alan Lamberg at (818) 937-8158 or ALamberg@GlendaleCA.gov . DECISION: On or after SEPTEMBER 30, 2026, the Community Development Director will make a written decision regarding this request. APPEAL: After the Director has made a decision, any person may file an appeal within 15 days of the written decision. Appeal forms are available at GlendaleCA.gov/home/ showdocument?id=11926.

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 800-280-2832 or visit this internet website www.Auction.com, using the file number assigned to this case CA2600294639 Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction if conducted after January 1, 2021, 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 855-976-3916, or visit this internet website https://www. auction.com/sb1079, using the file number assigned to this case CA2600294639 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, by remitting the funds and affidavit described in Section 2924m(c) of the Civil Code, 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. If the sale is set aside for any reason, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the deposit paid. The Purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee or the Mortgagee’s attorney.

LA homeless funding target of federal probe, Bass called to testify in DC By City News Service

he Trump administration Thursday announced an investigation into what it calls “waste, fraud and abuse” of federal funds allegedly linked to the troubled Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority and called on Mayor Karen Bass to testify before Congress later this month. Rep. Tim Burchett, chairman of the House Subcommittee on Delivering on Government Efficiency, summoned Bass to testify at a hearing titled “Fixing Fraud and Failure in Federally Funded Homelessness Services” on Sept. 15. In a letter, Burchett asked that Bass bring documents and communications related to “corrupt contracting and grant-making” by LAHSA, and be ready to discuss allegations of self-enrichment among nonprofits to whom LAHSA has awarded funds.

The DOGE subcommittee is investigating potential waste, fraud and abuse of federal grant funding intended to address homelessness in Los Angeles, according to the letter. “Specifically, the Subcommittee is concerned about the potential misallocation of federal dollars by the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority to nonprofits in Los Angeles and the surrounding area,” Burchett wrote. “Because Los Angeles officials have not adequately protected federal taxpayer dollars, it appears that many nonprofits to which those funds have been allocated are not using them for their intended purpose.” To understand “the extent of the problem and the steps being taken to safeguard federal funds,” Burchett’s letter requested related documents and

information from Bass’ office, and asked for her testimony at the hearing. According to annual data from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Burchett said, California has nearly 182,000 homeless people. Los Angeles County has 73,000 homeless people, and the city of Los Angeles has

more than 45,000 homeless people, an increase of 3.4% from the year prior. LAHSA has received over $1 billion in federal funds since 2021, including $220 million in 2024 alone. U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development officials are investigating LAHSA’s use of federal funds stemming from allegations

of fraud and widespread mismanagement. In June, HUD abruptly suspended further federal funding to LAHSA until officials can show adequate safeguards are in place to protect taxpayer dollars. But last month, a Los Angeles federal judge blocked the decision, finding that the sudden loss of cash would jeopardize housing and services for more than 11,000 people across the region. U.S. District Judge David Carter’s partial preliminary injunction against HUD allows LAHSA access to federal homelessness funding for fiscal year 2026. Also at stake is nearly $241 million already earmarked for the Los Angeles region by Congress, as well as immediate future funding for homelessness in the next fiscal year.

“This has great consequences for the Los Angeles region and impacts the region’s ability to compete with other cities across the country for limited homelessness funding nationwide,” Carter wrote in his order issued in Los Angeles federal court. A hearing is set on the matter in Carter’s courtroom in Los Angeles on Sept. 22. In his letter to Bass, Burchett wrote that homelessness “has grown worse” during her tenure as mayor. “Yet, your administration continues to pursue policies that fail to address the mental health and drug abuse crises perpetuating the cycle of homelessness in Los Angeles,” he wrote. “The result is deteriorating public health, increased lawlessness and a bleak environment for small businesses.”

Former Malibu resident added to FBI’s Most Wanted Fraudsters list By City News Service

Malibu man who defrauded investors out of more than $20 million by lying to them about his technology company’s financial performance has been added to the FBI’s new Most Wanted Fraudsters list and the agency is offering up to $150,000 for crucial information on his whereabouts, officials announced Thursday. Bernhard Eugen Fritsch, 65, founder and chief executive of a Santa Monica-based tech company called StarClub Inc., was found guilty of one count of wire fraud by a jury in Los Angeles federal court in April 2025. He fled months later while awaiting sentencing. Fritsch convinced victims to invest in an app he claimed could help celebrities and social media

influencers monetize their brand endorsements. He also claimed his app would deliver advertising content and share ad revenue with the celebrity poster. Fritsch used much of the investor money to support a luxurious lifestyle that included buying luxury cars such as a McLaren and a Rolls-Royce, upgrading his yacht and renovating his Malibu mansion near Carbon Beach, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office. The FBI seized the yacht and the cars. “Southern California is a target-rich environment for fraudsters -- among them Bernhard Fritsch -- who was convicted of ripping off investors of millions and fleeing the United States prior to his sentencing,” Patrick Grandy, assistant

director in charge of the FBI’s Los Angeles bureau, said in a statement. “Regardless of how long it takes for Mr. Fritsch to serve his sentence, the FBI will unrelentingly seek his whereabouts and is

offering a significant reward of up to $150,000 in exchange for information leading to his apprehension and conviction.” Before he could be sentenced, Fritsch fled to Los

Mochis, Sinaloa, Mexico in June 2025, prior to a bondrevocation hearing. A federal arrest warrant was issued after he failed to appear for the hearing. In September, Mexican law enforcement detained Fritsch, who was found with false identification, in violation of Mexico’s immigration laws. He was released from custody and ordered to check in with the immigration court in Mexico every two weeks. Instead, Fritsch fled to Munich on Oct. 6. Several weeks later, a Los Angeles federal judge sentenced Fritsch in absentia to 15 years in prison, fined him $35,000 and later ordered him to pay $26.8 million in restitution. Fritsch’s girlfriend, Lucinda Jane Weist Manera, 63, of Malibu, pleaded guilty

in June to being an accessory after the fact for helping Fritsch hide from the FBI and then flee to his native Germany to avoid incarceration. The Most Wanted Fraudsters list was created and launched in June by the FBI to generate public interest and assistance with information leading to the location and apprehension of fraud fugitives. A reward of up to $150,000 is being offered in exchange for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of a fugitive on the list, authorities said. The Most Wanted Fraudsters list is separate from the FBI’s traditional Ten Most Wanted Fugitives and was created to focus exclusively on fugitives wanted for major fraud.

Mount Saint Mary’s receives grants for formerly incarcerated entrepreneurship By City News Service

ount Saint Mary’s University announced Thursday it has received two grants totaling $34,556 to develop educational and entrepreneurship opportunities for formerly incarcerated people. The grants include $8,000 from the Yes We

Must Coalition, funded by the ECMC Foundation, to increase success for incarcerated and formerly incarcerated students, and $26,556 from Unite LA, funded by College Futures, to support the university’s Re-entry Entrepreneurship Accelerator project, according to the

university. The university plans to work with academic departments and community organizations to develop an entrepreneurship program that reflects the needs of formerly incarcerated people. The proposed program will include curriculum, support

resources and opportunities to develop entrepreneurial knowledge and skills, according to the university. “Creating pathways to entrepreneurship supports workforce development and opens doors of opportunity,” said Krishauna Hines-Gaither, vice president for strategic

Anaheim councilwoman optimistic about Angels sale By City News Service

n Anaheim City Council member Wednesday said city officials were surprised by a report, which was later retracted, that Rams owner Stan Kroenke intended to build a $2.5 billion stadium to replace Angel Stadium when his purchase of the Angels is completed. “That was the first we heard of it,” Anaheim City Councilwoman Natalie Meeks. The Forbes report on Kroenke’s plans to build a new stadium on the parking lot while the current one is razed for parking was taken down later Wednesday. Meeks said there are many questions and options to consider going forward when the sale is expected to go through by year’s end. “The new owner will be

stepping into the current lease,” Meeks noted. Kroenke “will need to come in and talk to the city at one point and what future is there for the lease, the property, the stadium and all those things,” Meeks said. “We don’t know what their proposal would be at this point,” Meeks said. Angels owner Arte Moreno is leasing the stadium property, so the new owner will have to negotiate with city officials on ownnership versus rental as well as whether to build a new stadium or remodel the existing one. “We all agree that at some point the stadium needs significant remodeling” if the new owner keeps it, Meeks said.

Results of a “fairly extensive assessment of the stadium” are expected by year’s end, Meeks said. “We’ll know what the current stadium situation is then,” she said. Meeks is open-minded about remodeling the stadium or construction of a new one. “I think either one could serve us moving forward,” Meeks said. “As old as our current stadium is, the capacity, the sightlines and things like that are actually very good.” Other issues to consider are how construction at the stadium site would connect to the OC Vibe project, Meeks said. “We will always be thinking how can we connect our destinations and make

them seamless and provide a good experience for those coming to our city,” she said. Overall, Meeks said she was excited about the team’s future.

“I’m a huge Angels fan and have been since I was a kid,” she said. “I’m very excited about the future for them. I’d love to see the team win more and get back in the

playoffs and really provide the fans a winning team... I’m an optimistic person anyway, but I’m very excited and I think we have a great future ahead.”

El Monte reclaims troubled MacLaren site with park, affordable housing By City News Service

community park opened Wednesday and construction began on 202 affordable homes at the former MacLaren Children’s Center in El Monte, transforming a property with a troubled history as Los Angeles County’s emergency shelter for abused and neglected children. Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors Chair Hilda Solis joined El Monte officials and project partners to open the 5.6-acre Hilda L. Solis Community Park and break ground on the adjacent Esperanza Village housing development. The projects are part of the redevelopment of the 13.7-acre former MacLaren site, which had remained largely unused since the children’s center closed in 2003. “This site has a history that we cannot forget, but we also cannot let that history define what comes next,” Solis said. “Together with the City and community members, we imagined a different future for this property: a place where children can play and families can find a safe and affordable place to call home.” MacLaren Children’s Center, commonly known as MacLaren Hall, served for decades as a county shelter

and El Monte officials began working with residents in 2019 to develop a new use for the former MacLaren property. The new park includes a regulation-size soccer field, basketball and tennis courts, a fitness area, walking paths, picnic and children’s play areas, a water feature and an outdoor classroom and performance space. “The transformation of the historic MacLaren Hall site preserves space for community, acknowledges the complex history of this property, and creates a more

hopeful future,” El Monte City Manager Alma Martinez said. Esperanza Village will include 102 apartments for families and 100 apartments for people 62 and older, with the housing serving households earning between 30% and 70% of the area median income. Of the 202 apartments, 154 will be supportive housing for people experiencing or at risk of homelessness and survivors of domestic violence. The family building also will include supportive housing for transitional-age youth. Prima Development also plans to build a health center at the site with a community clinic, senior care center, pharmacy and space for the county Department of Children and Family Services. “While we should never forget the painful past of this site, the effort to create a positive path forward that includes housing stability for diverse people in the region, including youth exiting foster care, young families and seniors, reflects a powerful commitment to the future,” interim DCFS Director Lisa E. Mandel said. The housing development is expected to be completed in 2028.

grant-supported planning process will be used to develop a program model intended to expand access to education, career preparation and entrepreneurship for formerly

incarcerated people. Mount Saint Mary’s, founded in 1925, is a private university with campuses in the Brentwood and Doheny areas of Los Angeles.

for children who had been removed from their homes because of abuse or neglect and were awaiting placement with relatives, foster families or other facilities. The center eventually became the subject of repeated allegations of abuse and inadequate care. A 2001 Los Angeles County civil grand jury report found that criminal background checks had not been conducted on employees for decades and that a subsequent review identified 17 workers with convictions that could

disqualify them from working at the facility. The grand jury also found that allegations of misconduct by staff were not always investigated promptly. MacLaren closed in March 2003 amid litigation over conditions at the facility. County budget documents described the center as an emergency shelter for abused, abandoned or neglected children who could not safely remain at home and said funding was redirected after its closure toward alternative services and placements. In the years since the

closure, former residents have alleged they were sexually and physically abused while housed at MacLaren. Those allegations later became part of a wave of litigation against Los Angeles County involving abuse claims at county-run facilities. The county Board of Supervisors in 2025 approved a $4 billion settlement involving nearly 7,000 childhood sexual-abuse claims stemming from county facilities, with many of the allegations involving MacLaren. Against that history, Solis

strategies for serving students affected by the justice system. Representatives of the participating institutions will attend a gathering this fall at Mercy University in New York,
