WARNING: Failure by a person to request a public hearing may result in the loss of the person’s ability to appeal any action taken by Santa Barbara County on this Coastal Development Permit to the County Planning Commission or Board of Supervisors and ultimately the California Coastal Commission.

If a request for public hearing is not received by 5:00 p.m. on the Request for Hearing Expiration Date listed below , then the Planning and Development Department will act to approve, approve with conditions, or deny the request for a Coastal Development Permit.

Perhaps the most frequent question at the overlook is “Are there pups?” Typically, most pups are born between mid-February and the end of March. Unfortunately, most pups born in ecember or early anuary do not survive, usually due to developmental problems. Think of them as “premies.” Pups continue to arrive in April and often in early May. A pup was born in June one year.

The Carpinteria City Council accepted an $800,000 grant on Monday from the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors to support the well-being of the Carpinteria luffs. The payments will be made in yearly installments of up to , , starting in May . The Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors, under then-First District Supervisor Das Williams, agreed to set aside , for the Carpinteria luffs back in , city staff said. This money will be used for maintenance, trail development and stewardship of the open space. nder the agreement, any work must be completed by une , . The city currently has two bluffs projects in the works as listed in the city’s Capital Improvement rogram — luffs Two and luffs Three. luffs Two already received funding from the California State Parks Grant and Tidelands Trust Fund with a total approved allocation of , . luffs Three is unfunded. Parks, Recreation and Community Services Director Jeanette Gant anticipates the bulk of the grant will fuel projects on the luff s Three parcel funds can be used for other areas, including Carpinteria luffs ature reserve luffs Two , incon luffs luffs Three , and the incon Gateway. The latter was ac uired by the Land Trust for Santa arbara County just under a year ago. s the last segment of bluffs without developed trails, the luffs Three project will largely focus on the development of trails that are safe and accessible. The trails would go through an environmental review process to maintain surrounding ecosystems and the well-being of natural habitats. Conceptual plans also include a public parking lot specifically designated for the incon luffs. Gant assured there will be multiple opportunities for community engagement and feedback for the luffs Three project as it progresses. Staff are also re uired to work closely with the Carpinteria Open Space Management dvisory oard C SM as part of the grant agreement. Staff will provide regular updates to COSMAB at its publicly noticed meetings on the third Thursday of every other month at p.m., held at Carpinteria City all. “It’s very generous and a large amount of money, but with such a large project, I am very confident we will be able to use

Multiple public commenters encouraged the council to use the funds to purchase other bluffs properties, such as the Tee Time property on luffs I, which is privately owned. “I hope that the council will put a priority on these funds for possible ac uisition — people have been mentioning ac uiring a portion of the bluffs. I advocate we really try to buy the four acres that overlook the seal sanctuary,” Carpinterian rturo Tello said, advocating for bluffs ac uisition alongside other commenters on Monday night. City staff said the city cannot purchase property that is not for sale. “I want the public to be aware that this is money that is on a timeline and has to be spent. So, if there aren t parcels that are available for ac uisition, then the money can t be used primarily for ac uisition,” Vice Mayor Mónica Solórzano said, adding, “But if something were to open up, then that could be a consideration.”

City recognizes Human afﬁc ing a eness Month

On Monday night, the Carpinteria City Council declared January 2026 uman Tra cking wareness month in the city of Carpinteria, calling it “an opportunity to recognize the critical role all Santa Barbara County residents play in preventing, reporting, and adjudicating these heinous crimes.” Victim Witness Program Supervisor Tiffany Carty from the Santa arbara istrict ttorney s ce accepted the proclamation and reminded the room of both the severity and relevance of human tra cking in the Santa arbara area. “From 2017 to 2024, 283 human trafficking investigations were conducted within our county, 90% of which involved sex trafficking. f these investigations, 94 human traffickers were identified, and we were able to arrest 59 of these individuals for human tra cking related crimes,” Carty said. She also noted that of the 261 sur-

vivors of human tra cking identified within that same time period, almost half are county residents. The Santa Barbara County Human Tra cking Task Force is a multidisciplinary coalition of law enforcement agencies, community service providers, community advocates and a district attorney witness program. The proclamation specifically recognized the task force as an organization that is dedicated to applying law and resources towards human tra cking investigations and prosecutions. Carty also noted the task force’s diligent work in the county as an organization that offers an array of resources including training, survivor-centered services and public-outreach. “The statistics are astonishing, and it’s something we often forget,” Mayor atalia larcon said after thanking Carty and her team for their work. ––Liv Klein

“One person walked up with hot tea, cookies, and warm gloves, a level of generosity that nearly knocked me over more than the wind. That gesture alone was worth three days on the corner.”

— Andy Patrick

The frog in boiling water

I’ve spent three days standing at the corner of Carpinteria and Linden with a protest sign. n Thursday, I stood alone for three hours — cold, windy, and feeling a bit odd. n Friday, the eace rotest group joined, about strong. nd on Saturday morning, just a handful came out. In that short window I witnessed the full spectrum of merican civic behavior. One woman rolled up her window in a panic, as if a man with a cardboard sign might carjack her at a.m. Someone called me Hitler. A lifted 4x4 intentionally veered toward me to intimidate. Others delivered the classic ﬁnger. Then came the opposite the honks, the thumbs-up, and the uiet smiles that say, “thank you.” One person walked up with hot tea, cookies, and warm gloves, a level of generosity that nearly knocked me over more than the wind. That gesture

alone was worth three days on the corner. But the most striking response was silence from the overwhelming majority, about roughly of the cars. o hostility, no support, not even curiosity. ust blank faces staring at me, light turns green, drive on. As if civic danger is something to be scheduled for later. It reminded me of the old fable place a frog in boiling water and it will jump out immediately. But place it in cool water and slowly raise the temperature, and it will sit until it boils alive. Comfort, more than fear, is what kills it. For years we ve been sitting in that pot, the heat rising degree by degree. ttacks on democratic norms, political violence, media distortion, and authoritarian rhetoric are not “politics as usual.” ubbles forming at the edges. eople, the water is at a rolling boil. It’s time to jump.

High school teachers hit professional milestones BY JUN STARKEY Three Carpinteria High School (CHS) teachers have reached major milestones in their professional careers: Noe Gomez and Audrey Rogan have become National oard certified, and ulie ubio-Shamblin defended her dissertation at the University of Southern California (USC) and is set to earn her doctorate of educational leadership this spring. These achievements were no small feat for the instructors. Gomez and Rogan dedicated more than two years to the process of receiving National Board certification, and ubio-Shamblin has spent three years at USC working towards her doctorate. The three teachers are now in a league of their own ubio-Shamblin is the only CHS teacher to hold a doctorate in education, and Gome and ogan are two of 15 science teachers in California to become ational oard certified this year, according to CHS science department chair Mandi de Witte. “The achievements of Ms. ogan, Ms. Shamblin, and Mr. Gome embody the very spirit we strive to instill in every CHS student — an unwavering commitment to lifelong learning and a dedication to excellence that inspires peers, colleagues, and our entire community,” CHS Principal Gerardo Cornejo told Coastal View News. “Their example reminds us that being our best, personally and professionally, is both a goal and a responsibility. Congratulations to all three for lighting the way.” ubio-Shamblin is a lifelong Carpinterian and a CHS and the University of California, Santa arbara alumna. She also coaches the C S cheerleading team, which she cheered on when she was a student at the high school. She went on to earn her master’s from National University and began pursuing her doctorate about three years ago through the USC Rossier School of Education. USC has seen more than one generation of Shamblins. ubio-Shamblin s daughter rooklyn Shamblin, a current SC student, committed to play basketball at the school when she was in eighth grade, and her son Ty was a wide receiver on USC’s football team. ubio-Shamblin s five-chapter dissertation focuses on the teacher’s perspective on implementing social and emotional learning in small public high schools. Her dissertation also observed the barriers to implementing the learning, including professional development and institutional support. ubio-Shamblin chose her area of study because there is “a bit of missing research, especially at the high school level,” she said. ubio-Shamblin s students, made up of mostly juniors and seniors, have followed her journey closely. She defended her dissertation in front of a committee in December 2025 while also working at C S. hen she finished, ubio-Shamblin

Gome , like ubio-Shamblin, is also a lifelong Carpinteria and CHS alum. He went on to attend Cal Poly San Luis bispo, the niversity of California, avis, Grand Canyon niversity, and the niversity of Massachusetts, mherst. Gomez is currently pursuing his doctorate in education with a focus on science education at Indiana University. Gomez has taught science at CHS since , working with th, th, and th grade students. He and fellow science teacher Rogan decided to work towards ational oard certification several years ago. “The science department at CHS is very supportive of each other,” Gome told Coastal View News. ational oard certification is one of the highest levels of certification a kindergarten through 12th grade teacher can receive. The process to earn certification can take up to five years, though Gome and Rogan were able to complete theirs in two. Teachers are tested on the relevant

Screen time horror show

IT’S ALL SURFING CHRISTIAN BEAMISH Military checkpoints in Mexico always remind me how much I appreciate the freedom of movement we enjoy in the United States. While I love the cultures and surf in Mexico, the young soldiers and their over-si ed assault rifles at the checkpoints make me uneasy. The checkpoints also make me cherish the fact that the U.S. Constitution bars the American military from deploying against its own citizenry. Yet we now have a president who has militarized a federal police force — often kitted out as commandos — that seems to show little restraint when dealing with suspected immigration violations, which are, by and large, civil infractions, not criminal. But people dispute these facts, and argue whether or not a woman driving away slowly from masked ICE agents in Minneapolis last week deserved to be killed. Richard Kenvin is a surfer I admire from San Diego, who is appalled by the death and destruction in Gaza, and now by the shooting death of Renee Good. “ K,” as Kenvin is affectionately known, recently copied and posted a commentary by another Southern California surf-personality named Jonathan Wayne Freeman, who stated that if Renee Good had simply complied with the agents’ orders on that street in Minneapolis, she would not have been killed. Factually, Freeman may be right. But the larger issue is that the aggressive tactics ICE uses make certain that violence and death will ensue. Opposing views on what is real and true run through the surf world just as they do the wider society. And, as in the wider society, the surf-world people who support Trump do so with the same willful ignorance and casual cruelty as the most-ardent MAGA believers. Kenvin posts regularly on Instagram with an unflinching point of view that sometimes runs counter to my own ideal (which I don’t always achieve — certainly not here in this column) of letting people have their own opinion and not adding another shrill voice to the ceaseless noise of our national politics. Also, self-servingly, I generally avoid politicking on Instagram in favor of promoting my surfboard label. But sometimes the bullshit is too objectionable, and I’ll get into it with anonymous morons in the comments section.

he author s Maveric s gun influenced y erican ingenuity. The comments opposing Freeman’s statement on RK’s post ran the gamut from personal attacks to well-reasoned arguments. I wrote that even if Renee Good did not comply with the agents’ orders she did not deserve to die for it, and in another comment, I stated that the immigrants I have known enrich our community, and that I have yet to see ICE apprehending the human tra ckers and drug dealers they were supposedly going after. Someone claiming to have worked in Compton for the past 18-years, whose Instagram link connects to a property management firm, asked me how many immigrants I had living with me, and told me that I lived in a bubble, and that my other liberal friends and I don’t know how it is in the real world. Other comments about the ICE shooting in Minneapolis show that the opposing political camps view the same incident with wildly different interpretations, which reinforces the sense I have of a fundamental fracture in American society. It is likely, however, that this fracture only seems worse than it actually is — amplified and distorted by social media and agenda-driven sources of news. Yes, Trump won the election, and not by a little, but in my opinion, the voting was more about disappointment and disillusionment with Biden than it was enthusiasm for MAGA and this blunt-force trauma response to the di cult issue of illegal immigration in the U.S. But to get back to my San Diego buddy Richard Kenvin: what I’ve always admired about his surfing and the work he has done in magazines and books is his deep interest in California surf history, specifically the design theory of ob Simmons in the late ‘40s and early ‘50s. RK demonstrated how Simmons’ dual keel planing hull from 1947 laid the foundation for contemporary high-performance surfboards. I followed the Simmons concept closely and shaped progressively longer versions of the dual keel board from to , finally taking a template from a 1957 Pat Curren Waimea gun to shape a 9’6” and surf it at Mavericks. The process was a living experiment on a parallel trajectory to the one I’d es-

tablished in building my 18-foot Shetland Isle beach boat “Cormorant.” What capabilities would these “old” designs have? Kenvin and I communicated about these ideas, and he generously included my Mavericks gun in two museum exhibits he guest-curated in Balboa Park and at the Sonoma Museum of Art. RK’s interviews and archival research were essentially a celebration of American ingenuity and regional craft. Simmons’ work, and the work of others like Joe Quigg and Matt Kivlin (the innovators behind the “Malibu Chip” and the pintail designs, respectively) utilized new materials of resin and ﬁberglass developed in II for an industrialized take on the ancient Hawaiian art of he’e nalu, or, wave riding. If we are to hearken back to a supposedly better age, if we are to truly “make America great again,” we will do well to remember the promise of the post-war years, when the American government invested in its citizens both in education and housing. The success of the over-all society (notwithstanding its failure to treat all citizens equally) allowed these young men on the est Coast su cient

The world is seemingly much more complex and dangerous now than it was in the late ‘40s/early ‘50s (although the Communist threat was real enough), but I believe we are poised to come back to equilibrium, find a humane way to manage immigration and move closer to justice and equality for all, once this administration burns itself out with its inane policies. Christian Beamish took leave of his position at Coastal View News in October 2020, to pursue his surfboard business, Surfboards California, full time. He continues his monthly column, and shapes at the surfboard factory showroom at 500 Maple Ave., in Carpinteria. The former Associate Editor of The Surfer’s Journal, Beamish is also the author of “Voyage of the Cormorant,” (Patagonia Books, 2012) about his single-handed expedition down the coast of Baja California by sail and oar in his self-built Shetland Isle beach boat. He now lives with his two children in Ventura.

Best Kids’ Movie: “Elio”

DUNCAN’S REEL DEAL M AT T D U N C A N ew ears is a time for reﬂection — reﬂection on the year gone by, and on the year to come. I don t know what all is to come, movie-wise, in . ut it s worth looking back at , especially because one nice thing about movies is, unlike family feuds brewing over the holidays, it s easy to just forget the bad and bask in the good. The majority of the movies I reviewed in were at least decent. Maybe that s no surprise given that I only review movies once a month, it s up to me what I watch, and, well, you only live once. ven so, there were some letdowns in there, too. I didn t think there was much to “Caught Stealing” besides ustin utler s smile, and I thought “Companion” cashed in on the .I. cra e without having anything particularly fresh or insightful to say. lso, “ ugonia” was kooky and fun for a while, but it faltered in the end. ut forget the bad Let s bask in the good ere are some awards for my favorites

I liked “ ootopia ” all right, but it felt a bit too much like a “run it back” of the ﬁrst “ ootopia.” “ lio” wasn t totally original either, but it had good themes and was touching. couple of good kids movies that I watched but didn t review are “ addington in eru” and, yes, of course, “K op emon unters.” gh, those songs are catchy.

Best Non-Fiction Movie: “Secret Mall Apartment”

“ Complete nknown” was interesting, and, for those sports fans out there, I also liked “ aron odgers nigma.” ut “Secret Mall partment” is something special. ot only is it an interesting story — about a group of artists who built a secret apartment in a shopping mall and managed to live in it for years — it also oﬀers a subtle meditation on the point of art, life and, well, the point of doing anything at all

Funniest Movie: “One Battle After Another”

I made the category “funniest movie” rather than “comedy” because “ ne attle fter nother” is not a comedy. ut it is hilarious. Leonardo iCaprio, Sean enn and enicio el Toro are at their very best, and they have lines that you ll be cackling over for weeks after.

Yes, the happy face emoji and the bold face “thank you” with exclamation point were part of the note — don t want to oﬀend the lummoxes raiding the snack basket. nd this is not a pediatrician s o ce. gain, “ eally ” is the only response I had. Hopefully, the rotten behavior you are witnessing stays at the “Really?” end of the spectrum. If it tips toward the Hannibal Lecter side, do not hesitate to contact the police and/or a mental health professional. You can visit 211santabarbaracounty.org for starters. Lastly, hope is alive and well. Not one to ﬁght for attention, it gets lost in the din and blinking neon of everyday life, but it s there, always ready to take up room.

Feline royalty of Carpinteria

THURSDAY The Hindleys started breeding cats in turn-of-the-century London, specializing in Siamese, which they considered uniquely intelligent. Frances Hindley claimed to have taught one Siamese kitten to stand on its hind legs and dance around the room.

BY STEPHEN BATES

Carpinteria pops up in unexpected places, including the annals of early cat breeding in the United States. Cats Magazine identifies r. Godfrey . indley of “Carpenteria” as “the Far West’s greatest pioneer of Siamese.” e s also in “The Siamese Cat Owner ’s Encyclopedia” and other reference books. lthough r. indley and his wife, Frances, spent only a few months in Carpinteria, they made history. The indleys started breeding cats in turn-of-the-century London, specializing in Siamese, which they considered uni uely intelligent. Frances indley claimed to have taught one Siamese kitten to stand on its hind legs and dance around the room. The couple came to Santa arbara in about 1907 and set to work popularizing the breed. Though Siamese were rare on the West Coast, they were well suited to the region, according to r. indley, because unlike long-haired cats, they offered little refuge to “the monster flea of California.” A physician with degrees from Oxford and the oyal College of Surgeons, r. indley opened a practice. is office hours (2–4 p.m.) left ample time for his more important work. e published an article on the good and bad forms of inbreeding in cats. e also wrote about diseases, including enteritis, a viral infection that was nearly always fatal. There was no vaccine — that wouldn’t come for decades — and no effective treatment. Along with breeding cats and founding the Santa arbara Cat Club, the indleys acted as intermediaries when r. C. C. Parks of Montecito bought three elite “royal Siamese” from London in 1909. One of the females gave birth to four kittens on the voyage to the United States. In Santa arbara, Fanny Stevenson, the

The identity of the woman is unknown. widow of Robert Louis Stevenson, bought one of the kittens, according to the Santa Barbara Independent. The royal cats bunked with the indleys on Chapala Street. Actually, the cats occupied their own mini-mansion, according to the Independent: a seven-room octagonal structure with sliding doors, a skylight, curtained beds, and walls decorated with their pri e ribbons. ut enteritis broke out after a few months and killed all of the kittens and one adult.

CAR • PET • ERIA Meet social Twila

Meet Twila, a two-year-old German Shepherd and Siberian usky mix who loves to play. Twila is looking for her forever home through Santa arbara County nimal Services S C S . Volunteers said she is one of the shelter’s “most social pups.” She loves small dogs and puppies, and helps shy or selective dogs blossom. Volunteers said: “She could play all day and would love a home with another active, playful dog. True to her working-breed roots, Twila is full of youthful energy and would make an amazing hiking, running, and adventure buddy. She just needs someone willing to give her the exercise, structure, and love she’s been missing. In return, she ll ﬁll your life with laughter, loyalty, and endless entertainment. Someone out there is meant for this girl. She’s ready. She’s wonderful. Come see for yourself.” Interested in fostering or adopting Twila She s at the S C S shelter in Goleta at verpass oad. The shelter is open Tuesday Sunday, a.m. p.m. Learn more by emailing sbcassouthfostercoordinator@gmail.com.

In , the indleys expanded their operations by moving to the Carpinteria Valley, where they leased part of Stewart alcott s ranch for their cattery. They suspended wires overhead for the cats to climb and roughhouse in what r. indley called “a wild riot of playfulness.” The indleys proudest possession, according to Cats Magazine, was a male named Guyo, one of the “royal Siamese” that r. arks had imported from London and sold to them. The Santa arbara istorical Museum s Gledhill Library owns a glass-negative photograph of Guyo on a ribbon leash.) A farmer was astounded to learn that some indley cats were worth as much as two cows. “ e had never before even thought of a cat,” r. indley wrote, “except as a thing to take a pot-shot at occasionally.” Indeed, cats from champion bloodlines could cost hundreds of dollars. ut to the indleys, that wasn t the point. If breeders wanted to maximize their profits, Frances indley wrote in the Sunset Cat Journal, they could simply produce what most Americans wanted: long-haired kittens, no matter what breed. “We are in the Cat Fancy — not the Cat Trade,” she declared. The indleys operations were thriving, but after less than a year in Carpinteria, tragedy struck: Frances died of an

unknown illness at age 30. Without his wife and partner, r. indley shut down the cattery and sold most of the cats. Mrs. . G. ykhouse of Grand apids, Michigan, bought a Guyo oﬀspring named omeo lue ell. It won est Cat at the Minneapolis Cat Club show in 1912 and was said to be the ﬁnest Siamese ever shown in the United States — but it, too, succumbed to enteritis. Stewart Walcott leased his ranch to Curtis W. Cate, who relocated his boys’ school there from Santa arbara, so r. indley moved to a cottage on Linden venue and then departed for awaii to open a medical practice. Guyo temporarily boarded with a cat fancier in Kansas City and then joined r. indley. “Guyo is quite a traveler,” reported the Cat Review, “having come from England to San Francisco, then halfway back across the continent, then again to San Francisco, and from there to awaii.” In , r. indley served as a surgeon with the ritish army. ewspapers, including the Carpinteria Valley News, reported that he was killed when his transport struck a mine, but that turned out to be wrong. e remained at the front in Europe for more than three years and then returned to England, where he died in 1944. The wires came down, the cats dispersed, and the cattery became Curtis Cate s school. ut for a short time, the Carpinteria Valley was a center of Siamese breeding. When historians looked back at the pioneers, the indleys of Carpinteria remained on the list. Stephen Bates is coauthor (with Vince Burns) of a pictorial history of Rincon Point, which is available at the Carpinteria Valley Museum of History and elsewhere.

Carpinteria boys basketball hit a rough patch for most of December and January, with the Warriors in the middle of a 10-game drought since Dec. 5.

Carpinteria defeats Santa Barbara at home beach BY RYAN P. CRUZ

Carpinteria’s high school surf team continued its undefeated run through the Scholastic Surf Series, as Carpinteria’s surfers defeated Santa Barbara in a headto-head competition in familiar waters at Carpinteria State Beach on Jan. 10. Carpinteria won the team competition 46-42, advancing to 4-0 this season. Carpinteria’s team will now compete in the final event of the regular season on Sunday, Jan. 25 in Ventura. Santa Barbara had previously held the record with 10-straight years of undefeated seasons in the Scholastic Surf Series. Carpinteria had strong performances across the board, with senior Owen Reeves and sophomore Wyatt Pitterle leading the way with second and third place in the first heat for boys shortboard. Pitterle eventually advanced to claim fourth place overall in the boys shortboard individual. Freshman Maddox Keet showed off style and flair in to take first place the next boys shortboard heat, while junior Luke Donahue was close behind in third. Both fell just short of the finals. Keet put in a clutch performance in the boys longboard competition, battling through tricky drop-in conditions to secure third place with stylish footwork and strong backside turns. In the girls shortboard competition, Carpinteria’s Izzy Scott — who won in each of the three previous events this season — took a slight lead over Santa Barbara’s Eloise Grewe after the first round. Charlotte Cooney, who also finished second in girls longboard, grabbed third place in the first shortboard round before she had to depart for a basketball game later that day.

Sophomore Wyatt Pitterle tucks in on his way to third place in boys shortboard. In the shortboard finals, Scott finished in a close second to Grewe, took first in both shortboard and longboard. Carpinteria’s team win came after a do-or-die performance from Reeves in the body board competition. Reeves needed to place one spot higher than Santa Barbara in order to avoid a tie, and the senior came away in first place with several pocket rides to help claim the win for his team.

Team coach Chris Keet thanked volunteers and parents that helped make the competition feel like “a community victory at our home break.” “Thanks to parent and board members

The Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday recognized pilots — pedal-powered rickshaw drivers with Cycling Without Age, who help riders who have lost the ability to use bikes — and the Cycling Without Age program as a whole for the program’s exceptional public service to the county. The program hit Carpinteria last year through the Friendship Center’s Healthy Aging Hub. Pictured, First District Supervisor Roy Lee at front with Cycling Without Age volunteers and pilots.

A handful of folks gathered at the corner of Carpinteria and Linden avenues — the city’s nicknamed Peace Corner — Saturday, Jan. 10 to protest Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and President Donald J.

The protest in Carpinteria was held the same day as a larger one in Santa Barbara, where hundreds lined State Street to protest the Jan. 7 shooting of a Minneapolis woman, Renee Nicole Good, by a federal agent.
