ESCONDIDO — Bill Horn, a longtime San Diego County supervisor who represented North County, died Friday at age 83 while surrounded by loved ones. According to the county, Horn, who served on the Board of Supervisors for 24 years, left behind “a legacy of public service, leadership and dedication to the community.” “Our thoughts go out to his loved ones and friends at this difficult time,” San Diego County Chief Administrative Officer Ebony Shelton said in a statement honoring HORN the late supervisor. “Bill was committed to the public, as a leader on the Board of Supervisors and as a veteran who served the nation in the military. We honor his memory and the impact he made.” A native San Diegan, Horn was born in his grandparents’ home on the corner of Second Avenue and Elm Street in downtown San Diego. After graduating from San Diego State University, he joined the U.S. Marine Corps and served five years on active duty and seven years in the reserves. He was recognized several times for acts of heroism, receiving the Purple Heart and the Bronze Star Medal with Combat “V.” As the owner of a ranch in Valley Center, Horn’s passion for property rights prompted him to run for the District 5 supervisor seat, an 1,800-square-mile region covering North County from the coast to the TURN TO HORN ON 9

Police halt search for missing nurse By Samantha Nelson
OCEANSIDE — Authorities have suspended physical search efforts on Palomar Mountain for Angelica Brophy, the 44-year-old registered nurse who has been missing for more than two weeks. Brophy, an Oceanside resident, wife and mother, was reported missing to the Oceanside Police Department on July 6. Three days later, her vehicle was found in a parking lot at Palomar Mountain State Park. Authorities said Brophy was last seen at Harrah’s Resort in Valley Center around 3:30 p.m. that day. Surveillance footage lat-
er showed her entering the state park alone in her vehicle at about 4:20 p.m. According to close friend and co-worker Alayna Johnson, Brophy dropped her daughter off at camp the morning she disappeared and was expected to return that afternoon to pick her up. She also failed to report BROPHY for her scheduled shift later that evening at Kaiser Permanente in San Marcos. “With her missing, a piece of
all of us is missing,” Johnson previously told The Coast News. Since Brophy’s vehicle was discovered, the search has involved California State Parks, the San Diego County Sheriff’s Search and Rescue team and the San Diego Harbor Police Department. Search crews combed the 1,862-acre state park between July 9 and July 14, searching on foot over multiple days while dive teams repeatedly searched a pond after investigators were unable to locate Brophy’s cellphone. Despite the extensive effort, authorities found no sign of her.
On July 20, Oceanside Police spokesperson Gina Avalos said the department had no new information but confirmed that organized ground searches have ended for now. “We are still investigating but a physical search coordinated by law enforcement at Palomar Mountain at this point is no longer happening at this time,” Avalos said. Anyone with information about Brophy’s disappearance contact Oceanside Police Detective Ryan Malone at 760-4354537 or the department’s anonymous tip line at 760-435-4730.

We’ve earned Bronze. We’ve earned Silver. But this year, we’re bringing home the Gold. The State Street Farmers Market has been voted Gold in the Best of North County Awards in the Attractions – Things To Do category, and we couldn’t be more honored. What makes this award especially meaningful is that it recognizes the little things that have always made the State Street Farmers Market different. Did you know our market: • Is a true food-only farmers market with no craft, retail, or commercial booths. • Has been an organic-certified market since its inception. Many vendors who aren’t officially certified still follow the same sustainable farming practices but have chosen not to pursue the rigorous certification process. • Is intentionally designed with every booth facing our brick-and-mortar businesses to help activate downtown storefronts rather than block them. • Complements, rather than competes with, local restaurants and retailers. • Is committed to being single-use plastics free, requiring vendors to use BPI-certified compostable products and bags. • Still includes vendors who were with us on opening day—October 16, 1994, nearly 32 years ago. • Has helped launch and grow remarkable local brands, including Bitchin’ Sauce, Prager Brothers Artisan Breads, Kelly’s Croutons, and many others. The Carlsbad Village Association incorporated in September 1994 and launched downtown Carlsbad’s first certified farmers market just one month later. More than three decades later, the market continues to connect local farmers, food artisans, residents, and visitors while helping make Carlsbad Village one of North County’s favorite destinations. This Gold award belongs to every farmer, food producer, musician, volunteer, staff member, and loyal shopper who has helped make the market what it is today. Thank you for this incredible honor. We look forward to continuing to bring you the freshest local products, support California farmers and small businesses, and provide an authentic farmers market experience every Wednesday in Carlsbad Village.

Solana Beach OKs 1% hotel tax increase for ballot Higher rate to generate about $250K annually By Leo Place
SOLANA BEACH — The City Council has agreed to place a ballot measure before voters in November that would increase the city’s current transient occupancy tax rate by an additional 1% to generate more revenue for city services. Solana Beach’s TOT, also known as the hotel tax, has been set at 13% since 2006. It is assessed on visitors staying in hotels, motels and short-term vacation rentals in the city for less than 30 days. The taxes are then collected by the hosts and paid to the city. The hotel tax generates around $1.5 million in annual revenue for the city. The majority of the revenue goes to the General Fund, and the rest is split between business assistance funding, sand replenishment and coastal access. These revenues have funded various city services in the past, including beach nourishment; street and sewer repairs; trash cleanup at beaches and parks; keeping public bathrooms clean; landscaping and tree maintenance in public areas; adding a new ramp, railing and showers at the base of Fletcher Cove; and the planned new lifeguard facility and safety equipment. Council members — with the exception of Jill MacDonald, who was absent — unanimously approved the ballot measure on July 15. They also received the results of surveys asking residents about their quality of life, top city service priorities and their reception to a potential hotel tax increase. “I am supportive of putting this on the ballot and seeing what the folks in our community think about this,” said Mayor Lesa Heebner. The 1% increase is expected to increase TOT revenue by around $250,000 annually. City Manager Alyssa

Muto said while the city is in a good financial position, ongoing uncertainty around federal funding highlights the need for more reliable local revenues. City services also need to keep up with the growing number of visitors to the city’s beaches, officials said. “To promote the visitor-serving businesses and to manage the city resources, we really need to work to maintain that local funding stream that we rely on year over year,” Muto said. Community survey results indicate that the tax increase has a good chance of passing. In a city survey of Solana Beach residents conducted earlier this year, 71% of respondents said they would support the increase. In the survey, 95.7% of residents rated their quality of life as “good” to “excellent,” and 85.7% said they were satisfied with city services. Respondents also identified the following top five city service priorities — keeping trash out of lagoons, waterways and beaches; keeping parks, beaches and trails clean, safe and well-maintained; keeping public restrooms well-maintained and clean; maintaining lifeguards at local beaches; and upgrading coastal lifesaving emer-
gency medical equipment and technology. The city received letters of support for the hotel tax increase from the Solana Beach Chamber of Commerce and the Courtyard by Marriott, a hotel along South Coast Highway 101. Barry Lall, owner of the Courtyard by Marriott, said that while the increase would raise costs for hotel guests, it would ultimately provide more funding for services that benefit visitors. “A modest, visitor-supported revenue source will strengthen the City’s financial position and its ability to weather economic uncertainty, without placing that burden on residents,” Lall said. John Steele, president of the Surfsong Homeowners Association that represents the condo owners
along South Helix Avenue, also offered strong support. Many of the condos are rented out as vacation rentals during the year. “The City of Solana Beach has earned the trust of everybody up and down the block. You have been great stewards of the money we gave you in the past, and there’s no reason to expect you won’t be great stewards of the 1% more we’re about to give you,” Steele said. The measure will appear on the Nov. 3 General Election ballot.
public pool moves toward a reopening in late summer or early fall. In a statement accompanied by a video showing the project’s progress, the city outlined ongoing work at the facility, including finishing the administrative building and mechanical equipment, and installing pool deck light fixtures and shade structure posts. When completed, the project will also include a solar water heating system and a stormwater filtration unit on the west side of the property. The public pool, located on the Carlsbad High School campus, was built in 1982, according to city records. The city closed Monroe Street Pool in March 2025 at the start of the major construction project. Overall, the project will increase the pool’s size and reconfigure it to add 50%
more lanes. The city will also add an 8-foot wall with metal gates to reduce noise for surrounding neighborhoods and upgrade the locker rooms, pool deck, showers and equipment storage areas, according to city records. The project was originally estimated to cost between $15.8 million and $16.5 million, according to city documents. Voters approved Measure J in November 2022, authorizing the city to spend up to $24 million on the project, with the amount adjusted for inflation using the regional construction cost index. — Cameron Adams

A fiscal reckoning
H
erb Morgan isn’t a politician. He’s a retired chief investment officer and financial services executive who oversaw billions in institutional assets. Now he’s running for California State Controller, arguing that California needs a financial professional in the job. His opponent, incumbent Malia Cohen, has no finance background. Drawing on state audits and official state and federal data, Morgan estimates $312 billion to $425 billion in misplaced fiscal exposure over the past five years. The estimates include: $55 billion in improper unemployment payments documented by the State Auditor; an estimated $95-$115 billion in improper Medi-Cal payments using federal methodology; and $24-$37 billion spent on homelessness programs, with auditors finding little accountability for results. His conclusion is blunt: California has one of the nation’s worst records of improper payments and financial controls. “Audits in California tend to happen after the money is already gone,” he said. “That is not accountability.” Past waste is gone; better controls can save billions. The state controller oversees state finances but does not set the spending agenda. Morgan’s platform — real-time oversight, automated fraud detection and a public dashboard that tracks every dollar — deserves attention. But he cannot solve the problem the next governor will inherit. According to the state’s nonpartisan Legislative Analyst’s Office, Sacramento faces a $35 billion annual structural deficit that will confront the next governor in the 2028-29 budget. That is the inheritance. And Sacramento’s proposed response is what voters should fear. Over the past four years, California accumulated roughly $125 billion
in deficits despite nearly 50% growth in personal income tax collections. The Legislative Analyst’s Office says that running operating deficits during a revenue boom signals a structural — not cyclical — problem: spending commitments have grown faster than recurring revenues can sustain. The budget’s May Revision purports to achieve balance through 2028 largely by drawing down
ing reductions of only $1.8 billion — less than 1% of the General Fund. Instead, it relied on roughly $10 billion in annual revenue measures against a $35 billion structural gap. The electoral playbook is primarily spending-driven, and Xavier Becerra, candidate for governor, makes no secret of that. His platform proposes moving California toward universal single-payer healthcare, expanding childcare assistance, and strengthening Medi-Cal — each of which would require sizable spending increases. Becerra points to his experience leading the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, but the federal government operates under fiscal rules that
Whatever candidates promise on the campaign trail, the next governor will inherit the fiscal realities they cannot avoid. reserves, suspending rainyday deposits and relying on additional borrowing. The Assembly’s own budget advisor projects an operating deficit continuing through the next governor’s entire first term. The LAO warns that a market correction on the scale of the 2000 dot-com bust — which it considers the appropriate historical parallel given current conditions — could lead to a $100 billion revenue shortfall. But the reserves that could cushion that shock have already been spent. Most of the General Fund is effectively off limits for cuts. Debt service is automatic, pension obligations are protected, and Proposition 98 guarantees roughly 40% of revenues for K-14 education. The governor has direct leverage over only a relatively small share of spending. Here is where Sacramento’s answer becomes something voters should regard with alarm. The May Revision proposed spend-
bear little resemblance to California’s constitutional budget constraints. More notably, his tenure at HHS coincided with a historic surge in improper Medicaid payments and the continued enrollment of ineligible recipients, raising questions about his record of fiscal oversight. Becerra’s opponent Steve Hilton correctly identifies the problem: a spending surge that pushed spending growth 50% above inflation over a decade, while delivering worsening outcomes on every metric that matters — housing, homelessness, public safety, education. His prescription — return spending to pre-pandemic levels, eliminate income taxes for households earning under $100,000 and pressure a Democratic supermajority into accepting cuts — is more a governing philosophy than a workable budget. Accounting for the TURN TO OPINION ON 20
ocal civil engineer Denis Lougeay uses many outdated and misleading arguments in his July 17 commentary, “Climate policy costs,” to attack the cost of the Encinitas Climate Action Plan, which aims to lower the city’s CO2 emissions. Lougeay argues that because CO2 comprises only 0.0005% of the Earth’s atmosphere, it is too small a component to have an impact on the planet’s warming. Imagine adding a small amount of salt to food to enhance the taste, while adding too much makes it inedible. Let’s examine how we got into this predicament. In 1977, Exxon executives were told by James F. Black, Ph.D., the company’s top scientist, in an internal company document, “that man has a time window of five to 10 years before the need for hard decisions regarding changes in energy strategies might become critical.” Dr. Black’s research determined that, due to the burning of fossil fuels, the planet would begin warming at an unprecedented rate. He was deeply concerned that “this carbon pollution could eventually endanger humanity.” In 1979, Exxon decided to fund additional research and sent out a ship with its own scientists and specialized scientific equipment. Their own model then predicted that Earth’s temperature would rise to dangerous levels due to the burning of fossil fuels and the resulting increase in atmospheric CO2. However, Exxon decided this would hurt its bottom line and, as economists put it, strand its assets underground and severely damage its business model. Consequently, by the late 1980s, Exxon began discrediting climate science and climate scientists. Exxon started lying and greenwashing by funding a large variety of organizations and think tanks, as well as politicians who would support its falsehoods. These tactics are the same as those used by the tobacco industry to avoid regulation. Another claim made by Lougeay is that more CO2 in the atmosphere is good for plants, but please consider that plants were doing quite well before the additional CO2. He also claims there is a “greening trend.” I don’t believe that claim. Recently, while flying from San Diego to Seattle
and sitting in a window seat, I was shocked by the vast areas of blackened forests. Lougeay states that these “catastrophic events ... cannot be linked to slightly warmer climate.” That is difficult to justify given the ever-increasing threat of these events, which climate models have long projected. The benefits of a free-market economy are supposed to include lowering the cost of competing products. That is not happening. While the sun and wind are free, and the
The Encinitas Climate Action Plan is only a very small step in the right direction, but it is a step we must take. overall cost of building and maintaining new wind and solar power plants is much lower than building new coal, gas, nuclear or oil plants — along with the ever-increasing cost of fueling those plants — we are not seeing those benefits. Why? Because the federal government provides what one analysis estimates is “$760 billion annually through subsidies, tax breaks, and unpriced externalities” to the U.S. fossil fuel industry. Many of the recently elected members of the Encinitas City Council hold the same discredited beliefs as Lougeay. I am confident most Encinitas residents understand the risks climate change poses. It is time we elect a more credible and effective City Council. The Encinitas Climate Action Plan is only a very small step in the right direction, but it is a step we must take.

SANDAG identifies transit stops for SB 79
By Leo Place
REGION — The San Diego Association of Governments has adopted a draft map confirming the location of transit stops in the county affected by Senate Bill 79, a new state law permitting increased housing density near specific areas of the transit corridor. As the county’s main metropolitan planning organization, SANDAG was required to release a draft map of transit-oriented development (TOD) stops in the county ahead of SB 79 taking effect on July 1. SANDAG released its map on June 18. SB 79 overrides certain local zoning restrictions to allow low- and mid-rise housing within a half-mile radius of specific transit stops, known as the TOD zone. The largest projects are allowed near Tier 1 stops, which are those served by heavy rail or very high-frequency commuter rail equivalent to at least 72 trains per day, excluding long-distance Amtrak service. Smaller projects can be built within half a mile of Tier 2 stops or of light- or high-frequency commuter rail with 48 to 71 trains per day. The map identifies all Sprinter stops as Tier 2 TOD stops. This includes six stops in Oceanside (Oceanside Transit Center and Coast Highway, Crouch Street, El Camino Real, Rancho de Oro, and College Boulevard stations); three in Vista (Vista Transit Center, Melrose Drive and Vista Civic Center stations); three in San Marcos (Palomar College, San Marcos Civic Center, and Cal State San Marcos stations); and two in Escondido (Nordahl Road Station and Escondido Transit Center). Other cities with affected stops are San Diego, Lemon Grove, Santee, La Mesa, National City and Chula Vista. In the Tier 2 TOD zone, parcels zoned as residential, commercial or mixed-use could be subject to development of up to 80 dwelling units per acre and 55
feet tall within one quarter to one half mile of a transit stop, 100 units per acre and 65 feet in height within one quarter mile, and 140 units per acre and 85 feet tall within 200 feet. SANDAG’s map includes some surprises, with at least one North County transit station notably left out, despite prior state guidance indicating it would qualify as a TOD stop. In an SB 79 advisory released in the spring, the Department of Housing and Community Development said calculating the frequency of trains serving a station must include all commuter rail services that operate the trains, an approach some referred to as “stacking.” Under HCD’s criteria, the Solana Beach Transit Center qualified as a Tier 2 stop due to having an average of 56 weekday trips between the Coaster and Pacific Surfliner. Despite HCD guidance, SANDAG did not include the Solana Beach Transit Center in its map. When asked about these differences, the agency noted that HCD’s advisory served as guidance for metropolitan planning organizations and was not a regulatory document. “In developing the methodology, SANDAG identified areas where HCD’s interpretation in the memorandum differ from statutory language. SANDAG applied current statutory requirements for the development of the methodology used to create the draft map. The methodology reflects SANDAG’s goodfaith application of statutory requirements and may be updated as requirements and data sources change or as errors are identified. If no substantive changes to the methodology are identified, SANDAG will finalize the map,” SANDAG said in a statement to The Coast News. The news is a relief for Solana Beach officials, who have shared concerns about how the small city would be impacted by the type of major development permitted
under SB 79. “I support SANDAG’s draft SB 79 map and respect the sound methodology and adherence to the adopted legislation that was used in its development,” said Solana Beach City Councilmember Jewel Edson, who also represents the city on the North County Transit District Board of Directors. However, some local pro-development groups say the way SANDAG identified some TOD stops runs counter to HCD’s guidance. A joint letter to SANDAG officials from YIMBY Democrats of San Diego County, BuildSD and Circulate Planning and Policy said that SANDAG must designate the Solana Beach Transit Center as a Tier 2 stop because it serves 56 trains per day. They also said SANDAG failed to identify the Oceanside Transit Center as Tier 1, noting that, using HCD’s methodology, the Oceanside Transit Center is served by around 130 trains per day across Sprinter, Coaster, Pacific Surfliner and Metrolink services, far exceeding the Tier 1 service threshold. “SANDAG’s methodology instead applies a single-operator approach, evaluating each commuter rail service independently and concluding that ‘no commuter rail service reaches the threshold of at least 72 trains per day,’ This single-operator reading is inconsistent with HCD’s guidance,” the letter stated. Solana Beach Mayor Lesa Heebner, who is also the chair of the SANDAG Board of Directors, said the map was developed by SANDAG staff and did not include input from the board. “I concur with the SANDAG staff’s findings in preparing their map,” Heebner said.

For Dr. Elona, dentistry has always been about more than creating beautiful smiles. It is about building trust, restoring confidence and helping patients achieve better overall health through exceptional care. A cosmetic and rehabilitative dentist with more than 26 years of experience, Dr. Elona has built a career that blends clinical excellence, intentional practice design and a deeply rooted philosophy of wellness. After immigrating to the United States at age 15, she completed her undergraduate degree in just three years, earned early acceptance into dental school and graduated in the top 10 of her class. Since then, she has focused on comprehensive, cosmetic and rehabilitative dentistry with an emphasis on long term systemic health. Dr. Elona is the founder of Inspire Smiles, a concierge style dental practice built around intentional, value centered care. After acquiring a small patient base from a retiring dentist, she redesigned every aspect of the practice, ultimately quadrupling its value while creating an experience that reduces fear, eliminates friction and delivers world class outcomes. The office itself was also completely redesigned to create a calm, wellness centered environment that reflects the practice’s philosophy and commitment to exceptional care. Today, the space is also shared by other dental and medical professionals who embrace the same elevated standard of patient centered
care. Her impact extends well beyond private practice. Through Inspire Changes, the nonprofit organization she founded, Dr. Elona has provided more than $500,000 in donated dental care to survivors of human trafficking, helping restore both health and confidence to individuals rebuilding their lives. She also leads Inspire Lives, a Certified High Performance Coaching program, and hosts the Live Inspired with Dr. Elona podcast, where she shares conversations centered on resilience, leadership and purposeful living. Whether treating patients, mentoring others or serving the community, Dr. Elona continues to demonstrate that dentistry can be a catalyst for positive change. Her work reflects a modern model of care where clinical mastery, wellness, compassionate leadership and social impact come together to create lasting results for both patients and the community she serves. Her commitment to excellence has established Inspire Smiles as a destination for patients seeking highly personalized, relationship driven dental care in North County, where every treatment plan is designed to improve not only a patient’s smile, but also their long term health and quality of life.

VISTA — The family of 12-year-old Emery Chalekian will have to wait longer for a resolution after a judge unexpectedly recused himself, delaying by more than two weeks a hearing for the man charged with misdemeanor vehicular manslaughter in her death. The diversion motion, originally set to be heard July 16, has been rescheduled for July 31. Eddie Sengendo, 45, a local tennis pro who entered the United States as a political refugee after fleeing Kenya, according to previous reporting by the San Diego Union-Tribune, has pleaded not guilty to a misdemeanor vehicular manslaughter charge stemming from an April 2025 collision that killed Chalekian. Emery, whose entrepreneurial spirit once led her to earn $68 from a lemonade stand inspired by a lemon tree in her family’s backyard in Encinitas, was crossing Encinitas Boulevard in a marked crosswalk when she was fatally struck by a Nissan Xterra, according to the San Diego County Sheriff’s Office. Details related to the circumstances of the collision have been limited. Dozens of supporters and family members of both Sengendo and Emery gathered at Vista Superior Court on July 16 for what many expected would mark the conclusion of the legal proceedings. Victim impact statements were expected to be read by members of the Chalekian family, followed by arguments over whether Sengendo would be granted diversion and, if so, under what terms. Instead, Judge Sim von Kalinowski recused himself earlier that day because of a conflict, according to court documents obtained by The Coast News. Kristin Marshall, the

deputy district attorney prosecuting the case, said no reason was given and that judges generally are not required to explain such recusals. The hearing was then reassigned to Judge Robert Kearney’s already full calendar, prompting the dozens of attendees to move from Courtroom 1 to Courtroom 22. The smaller courtroom quickly became standing-room only. Many of Emery’s supporters wore yellow, her favorite color. Marshall, who wore a sunflower-yellow dress to court, told Kearney that in anticipation of what they believed would happen, the Chalekian family and their friends “did incredible emotional preparation.” “It sounds like the kind of case that needs to have an opportunity for everybody to be heard,” Kearney said. “So we’ll do that.” Jay Temple, Sengendo’s attorney, has previously

‘Trump House’ murder suspect ruled competent
A judge has ruled that Thomas Caleb Butler is mentally competent to stand trial after he allegedly beat a 69-year-old veteran to death outside of his Escondido home in May. Prosecutors allege that Butler, 32, physically attacked Kerry Sheron outside Sheron’s home near the corner of East Mission Avenue and Buchanan Street on May 20. Butler was initially charged with attempted murder, elder abuse, making criminal threats and battery, and he pleaded not guilty to the charges at his arraignment. Sheron died in a hospital two days later, four days after the attack, leading the San Diego County District

Attorney’s Office to file an upgraded murder charge against Butler. However, the court suspended criminal proceedings before he could be arraigned on the murder charge, pending an evaluation by a court-appointed forensic psychologist. On July 17, Judge Kristopher Young reviewed the evaluation results and found Butler mentally competent. The finding means he is able to understand the nature of the criminal proceedings and/or able to assist counsel in the conduct of a defense in a rational manner. “Based upon that report and the evidence and opinion within it, the court finds based on a preponderance of the evidence that the defendant is mentally competent,” Young said at the Central Courthouse in San Diego. Criminal proceedings in the case will resume, and his next hearing is scheduled for Sept. 9. Sheron’s wife, Maria, and other loved ones were present at the hearing. “I’m satisfied with the judge’s finding he is competent to go forward with trial,” said Jim Gillie, a friend of Sheron’s. During the attack, Butler allegedly punched Sheron, causing him to fall to the ground, then struck him several more times after he had fallen. A bystander who attempted to intervene was also injured, according to police, and Butler fled the scene before being arrested a few blocks away. Sheron’s home is well known for its prominent display of American flags and pro-President Donald Trump signs. Escondido police said last month they were investigating whether the attack may have been “politically motivated,” but that they had found no evidence to support that conclusion thus far. “The violent assault and murder of Kerry Sheron outside his own home has left his family and community shaken and grieving for the veteran’s senseless loss of life,” San Diego County District Attorney Summer Stephan said in a June 3 statement announcing Butler’s upgraded murder charge. — Leo Place

Carjacking suspect dies from injuries
A man who was gravely injured over the weekend while allegedly attempting to commandeer a moving tree-trimming truck near Palomar College has died, authorities said Tuesday. Mark Douglas Heninger, 56, was pronounced dead Monday at a hospital, according to the San Diego County Sheriff’s Office. Deputies responding to a reported traffic collision Saturday found Heninger lying in the roadway in the 200 block of South Pacific Street with extensive head injuries. He was transported to a hospital in serious condition. The driver of the truck Heninger allegedly attempted to steal told investigators the suspect jumped onto the driver’s-side running board while the vehicle was moving and was armed with a knife.

OCEANSIDE — Several families staying in a beachfront vacation rental in Oceanside escaped injury early Sunday after smoke alarms alerted them to a fire in an attached garage, authorities said. The Oceanside Fire Department responded at 12:54 a.m. to a reported residential structure fire in the attached garage of a home in the 800 block of Pacific Street, according to Battalion Chief Michael Farnham. Fire crews arrived about four minutes later and found smoke coming from a closed garage door. “Firefighters immediately confirmed that all occupants had safely evacuated the home, deployed hose lines, forced entry into the garage and quickly extinguished the fire, preventing it from spreading into the living areas of the residence,” Farnham said. No injuries were reported among residents or firefighters. Although the fire was contained to the garage, the home sustained significant smoke damage. Utilities were shut off, displacing several families who were vacationing at the short-term rental, Farnham said. Investigators determined the fire originated in an electrical equipment cabinet in the garage, but the specific electrical component that caused the fire had not been identified. The cause remains under investigation.

Escondido library set to open after renovation By Samantha Nelson
ESCONDIDO — Staff and volunteers have spent the past several weeks returning books to the shelves and putting the finishing touches on the Escondido Public Library ahead of its reopening next month. Located at 239 S. Kalmia Street in downtown Escondido, the library has been closed for the past year while the 46-year-old building underwent extensive renovations. During construction, library operations temporarily relocated to storefronts at the south end of North County Mall. The renovations were made possible by a $10 million grant awarded by the California State Library in 2022 to address aging infrastructure, including a deteriorating roof, leaky single-pane windows, damaged ceilings, outdated HVAC systems and accessibility issues. While the grant funded only infrastructure improvements, the city contributed about $3 million from its library general fund to expand the project. The Friends of the Escondido Public Library, Friends of Literacy Services and the Escondido Library Foundation also provided funding for new furniture and equipment. “It was really important to us to ensure that the public got what would appear to be a brand-new library even though it was just a full renovation,” said Assistant Director of Community Services Robert Rhoades. The project included a new roof and HVAC system, plumbing and electrical upgrades, renovated restrooms, new book stacks and carpeting, a reconfigured first floor with additional workspaces, a café and a larger bookstore. The renovation also replaced the library’s aging single-pane windows, which Rhoades said were fragile, leaked and allowed significant traffic noise from Second Avenue inside the building. The new dual-pane windows are insulated, sturdier and allow more natural light into the first floor.

Rhoades said the combination of larger windows and lower shelving throughout the center of the first floor creates a brighter, more open feel while improving safety by giving staff a clear line of sight across the building. The library’s new circular front desk has also been relocated from the wall to a centralized location near the entrance. Other improvements include plastering walls and columns that had exposed concrete, which Rhoades said caused some visitors to compare the building to a parking garage. According to Rhoades, the renovations also consolidated staff work areas, creating approximately 1,200 to 1,500 square feet of additional public space. Before the renovation, the library had virtually no reservable meeting space for individuals or groups. It now offers two group meeting rooms equipped with tables, chairs and televisions, along with two-person and four-person study pods. Both the meeting rooms and study pods are insulated for quiet use and can be reserved free of charge. “We like to say it’s reservable, not rentable,” Rhoades said. “You shouldn’t have to pay for the use of this space. It’s a free public library.” The library also now features an enclosed teen space with two computers, lounge seating and a television that can be connected to gaming systems. Staff monitors the area from an adjacent room through a window.
Another addition is a reservable Activities Space for clubs and other community groups. The main floor also includes new collaborative seating areas. To balance the increased activity, the library added several quiet spaces, including the study pods and a dedicated Quiet Space with comfortable seating. Additional city funding and private donations also allowed officials to expand the scope of the project to include the second floor, which Rhoades said was not part of the original renovation plans. Second-floor improvements include new restrooms outside the children’s library, new shelving, a dedicated Tween Space for children ages 10 to 12 and additional consolidation of staff work areas. Rhoades said the added space also allowed the library’s literacy program to return to the main building on the first floor, complete with its own study pods. The program had previously operated out of a small building at the corner of Broadway and Second Avenue, which will be converted into a downtown station for the city’s park rangers. The library also preserved its murals and the hand-painted student tiles lining the staircase throughout the renovation. Although the city received the state grant in 2022, Rhoades said construction did not begin until 2024 because of staffing shortages. City staffing has in-
City crews are completing restoration work following emergency repairs to a partially collapsed sewer interceptor near the north shore of Agua Hedionda Lagoon after officials declared a local emergency last month to expedite construction on aging infrastructure serving much of western Carlsbad. The emergency declaration, signed by City Manager Geoff Patnoe on June 24 and unanimously confirmed by the City Council on July 7, allowed the city to bypass its normal bidding process and expedite repairs estimated at about $780,000, according to city staff. Construction began July 6, and officials have said there was no sewage spill or disruption to sewer or water service. The damaged pipeline posed an imminent risk of failure and potential sewage leakage into the environmentally sensitive lagoon area if left unrepaired. City officials said the damaged pipe was replaced and successfully tested last week. Crews are now restoring the work site, with the project expected to be completed by the end of this week. The damage was discovered on June 3 during a routine review of closed-circuit television inspections of the city’s main sewer pipelines. Staff identified a partial collapse in the North Agua Hedionda Interceptor sewer line within the Hedionda Point neighborhood. The damaged section affected two Adams Street properties, where city staff coordinated preliminary evacuation planning if the event conditions worsened during construction. The interceptor carries wastewater from neighborhoods along El Camino Real and the north shore of Agua Hedionda Lagoon, then conveys it roughly two miles to the Encina Wastewater Authority treatment plant. The pipeline is located within a city sewer easement on private property that provides public access for maintenance and repairs. Installed in 1966, the damaged section consisted of a 24-inch vitrified clay pipe, or VCP, a material widely used in sewer systems throughout California for decades because of its resistance to corrosion and chemical deterioration. While vitrified clay performs well against chemical attack, it is significantly more brittle than modern plastic pipe. Over decades, repeated soil movement, ground settlement, external loading and aging can cause cracks or joint separation, making older VCP pipelines more susceptible to
structural failure and collapse. Carlsbad continued installing vitrified clay sewer pipe until the 1990s, when the industry largely shifted to polyvinyl chloride, or PVC. Modern PVC pipe is lighter, more flexible and better able to accommodate minor ground movement while maintaining structural integrity. New sewer construction and most replacement projects now use PVC. The city said routine CCTV inspections are intended to identify deteriorating pipelines before they fail. “This yet again highlights the city’s proactive action to monitor and quickly repair infrastructure before issues arise,” Patnoe said in a city statement. “This is why we inspect our systems ahead of rainy weather seasons to minimize any impacts to our community.” Under the California Public Contract Code and Carlsbad Municipal Code, cities may declare a local emergency when immediate action is necessary to protect public health and safety. Because the damaged sewer line lies within a sensitive coastal environment and repair costs exceeded the city’s competitive bidding threshold, the declaration allowed officials to expedite contracting and permitting. The city also notified the California Coastal Commission on June 19. The commission authorized the work as an emergency action, subject to the city’s submission of a follow-up emergency coastal development permit application. A resolution terminating the local emergency is scheduled to go before the City Council on July 28. The Agua Hedionda repair marks Carlsbad’s fourth infrastructure-related emergency declaration of 2026. Previous declarations accelerated repairs to storm damage along coastal bluffs in January, a water main break at Carlsbad Village Drive and El Camino Real later that month, and another proactively identified sewer repair in the Ponto area in May.

Ramona air base back in service By City News Service
RAMONA — Elected leaders and public safety officials today celebrated the reopening of a significantly upgraded eastern San Diego County firefighting air base following a yearlong construction project that paved the way for a new tanker facility. “The Ramona Air Attack Base has long served as a cornerstone of aerial firefighting in San Diego County,” Cal Fire Unit Chief Tony Mecham said. “With these upgrades now complete, the base is fully operational and positioned as a critical hub in Cal Fire’s expanding aviation program.” Among the upgrades is a permanently stationed C-130H air tanker that will be available for use statewide. The tanker will augment the state agency’s San Diego-area fleet of three aircraft: one air attack platform and two air tankers. A reconstructed tarmac and new fire retardant reloading bays replace an aging facility with a modern plant for mixing fire retardant and include other improvements designed to

increase efficiency and support the larger size and operational needs of the new aircraft, officials said. The 69-year-old base is also home to an S-70 Cal Fire Hawk helicopter equipped with a 1,000-gallon water tank, hoist rescue capability and the ability to transport helicopter crews into remote terrain. The project, which began last August, marks a significant milestone in improving wildfire response across San Diego County and the surrounding region, according to fire officials. “The modernization of
Ramona Air Attack Base marks a significant investment in California’s wildfire response, strengthening our ability to respond rapidly and support firefighters with advanced aerial resources when every second counts,” Cal Fire Director Joe Tyler said.

last month. The city now has until the start of the 7th Housing Element Cycle in 2031 to phase in development on these fire-hazard sites or to develop alternative plans to redistribute housing capacity to other sites. Principal Planner Sean Del Solar noted that SANDAG’s map was released after the city’s Planning Commission meeting, but that city staff did communicate with SANDAG for guidance while the map was in the works. “There was a lot of coordination which took place regionally and with SANDAG and other jurisdictions to ensure basically that our ordinance was consistent
with the latest guidance and also those implementation practices throughout the region,” Del Solar said. “Despite these timing considerations, San Marcos is still an early adopter of the comprehensive SB 79 implementing ordinance.” The ordinance takes effect immediately and will also be reviewed by HCD. Planning Division Director Joseph Farace said the city has not received any SB 79 applications since the law took effect on July 1. About half of the TOD zones around the Cal State San Marcos and Palomar College stations fall into the very high fire hazard severity zone, as do smaller areas within the Nordahl Road
of the San Diego area today, blackening several dozen open acres and burning dangerously close to homes before ground and airborne crews could subdue the flames. The blaze erupted for unknown reasons at about 10 a.m. Wednesday along Rainbow Crest Road in the unincorporated Rainbow community, near Mordigan Lane and north of state Route 76. Authorities directed residents of about 10 homes immediately threatened by the fire to clear out of the area and advised others who live in areas somewhat farther from the burn zone to prepare to evacuate on short notice. A temporary shelter was available for displaced residents at the Seventh-day Adventist Church on Old Highway 395 in Fallbrook. At midday, the flames had charred nearly 35 acres. As of 12:40 p.m., firefighters had stopped the fire’s forward progress at an estimated 35 acres. No structural damage or injuries were reported. — City News Service

Council members said they were not happy with SB 79’s implications for the community and its override of city control. Councilmember Ed Musgrove also shared concerns that SB 79 developers will not provide enough parking at their projects, with the justification that residents can just use public transit. “It’s farcical what Sacramento is pushing down on us,” Musgrove said. “I will be supporting this for the sole purpose of maintaining what little control we have over our community and our development, but I’m not happy with it.” SB 79 projects must have a minimum of five dwelling units and a density of at least 30 units per acre. Projects with 10 or more units must deed restrict either 7% of units for extremely low-income households, 10% for very low-income households, or 13% for low-income households. The City Council unanimously approved the ordinance, except for Mayor Rebecca Jones, who said she would recuse herself out of an abundance of caution due to living within one of the TOD zones.

O’side mother gets prison term Feds: Children aided woman’s drug operation By City News Service
OCEANSIDE — A North County woman who helped sell psilocybin with her husband and involved their young sons in growing and distributing the drugs was sentenced today to three years and five months in federal prison. Rebecca Vance, 42, of Oceanside, pleaded guilty along with her husband, Randal Vance, and his friend, Keir Ceballos-Rivera, to participating in a conspiracy to cultivate and distribute psilocybin mushrooms and psilocybin products. Although prosecutors identified Randal Vance as the "ringleader of the conspiracy," they wrote in sentencing papers that Rebecca Vance was "an active participant" who distributed psilocybin capsules and found customers. The couple also had their sons help grow mushrooms beginning when they were 9 and 11 years old, according to prosecu-
tors. Randal Vance admitted in his plea agreement to giving his sons psilocybin capsules every other day and providing his older son with capsules to sell to friends. According to the U.S. Attorney's Office, the defendants produced psilocybin at two locations in Fallbrook and Bonsall and sold the products online. After law enforcement officers searched the Fallbrook and Bonsall properties, seized psilocybin mushrooms and capsules, and arrested the defendants, prosecutors said they deleted text messages and removed websites used to sell the drugs, resulting in additional conspiracy to obstruct justice charges. Defense attorney Kerry Armstrong argued in sentencing papers that Rebecca Vance played a limited role in the offenses and was unaware of the full scope of the conspiracy, including her husband's distribution of hallucinogenic drugs to their sons. Randal Vance and Ceballos-Rivera are scheduled to be sentenced later this year.
CARLSBAD — The Carlsbad Unified School District has submitted plans to upgrade the Pacific Rim Elementary School campus, including new classroom facilities, a solar canopy and a battery energy storage system. The district submitted a Coastal Development Permit application to the city in February and mailed public notices to surrounding property owners on May 11, according to city spokesperson Sarah Lemons. Public school projects are generally required to obtain permits from the California Division of the State Architect. However, because the Pacific Rim campus is within the coastal zone, the project must first receive a Coastal Development Permit from the city. Lemons said the city anticipates the project will require a public hearing before the Planning Commission, which is expected to act as the decision-maker in January 2027 if the review process remains on schedule. The proposed improvements include construction of a solar canopy and a battery energy storage system, or BESS, on the east side of the campus near a bend in Solandra Drive. Lemons said the solar canopy is expected to have a capacity of about 25 kilowatts. The battery energy storage system would be between the size of a refrigerator and a small shed. The proposed BESS has prompted questions from residents in the neighboring Mariners Point community, who expressed concerns about the use of lithium-ion batteries, potential fire risks, cooling fan noise, emergency access, proximity to classrooms and homes, and the possibility of thermal runaway or smoke affecting nearby neighborhoods. Residents discussed concerns within their homeowners association and in email communications with Ryan Murphy of Carlsbad Unified, which were obtained by The Coast News. In written responses, Murphy told concerned residents that the free-standing battery unit, approximately 82.7 inches long, 51.18 inches wide and 97.05 inches tall, would be located 11 feet from the nearest classroom, 11 feet from the adjacent retaining wall and fence, 19 feet from a second retaining wall and approximately 60 feet from the nearest property line. Murphy said the BESS uses lithium iron phosphate batteries and generates 70 decibels of sound, but noise levels would decrease to roughly 35 decibels at the nearest backyard — quieter

than a normal conversation. The unit includes an integrated fire suppression system, active cooling system, battery management system and overcurrent protection, Murphy said. The equipment will be enclosed by fencing and was reviewed and approved through the Division of the State Architect plan review process, including coordination with the Office of the State Fire Marshal and other agencies. Murphy told residents that several alternative campus locations were studied during the design process and that he would ask the design team to re-examine other possible options. The current location, however, meets state building and fire codes, provides required setbacks and emergency access, and is protected from vehicle impacts. The overall project includes a combination of new construction and demolition. Plans call for the removal of 11 portable classroom buildings and demolition of one shade structure. The district also plans to construct a 12,220-square-foot classroom building connected to an existing 1,920-squarefoot structure beneath a continuous roof. According to Lemons, the new build-
ing would stand about 19.5 feet tall. A separate 3,360-square-foot modular classroom building would house a child care program and an additional music classroom. Additional improvements include the installation of a stormwater treatment system, the resurfacing and restriping of asphalt play areas, the replacement of landscaping and interior classroom upgrades.
Firefighters contain U-Haul truck blaze
A fire inside a commercial U-Haul truck parked dangerously close to a propane fueling station was swiftly contained early July 22, preventing a potentially major hazard. The Oceanside Fire Department responded at 4:31 a.m. to the vehicle fire at the U-Haul facility, 802 S. Coast Highway, according to the agency. First-arriving crews found a U-Haul box truck with flames burning inside its cargo area. Officials said the truck was parked directly adjacent to a propane fueling station and an area where additional propane cylinders were stored, cre-
ating a significant safety hazard and increasing the risk of the fire spreading. Firefighters immediately launched an aggressive attack while prioritizing protection of the nearby propane fueling equipment, stored propane cylinders and adjacent rental vehicles. The blaze was quickly contained to the U-Haul truck, preventing it from spreading to nearby vehicles or the highly flammable storage area. The Carlsbad Fire Department, Vista Fire and Rescue, and the Oceanside Police Department assisted at the scene.

VETERAN JOCKEY Umberto Rispoli, far right, pats Journalism after the pair reunited to win the Grade II San Diego Handicap on July 18 at Del Mar Racetrack. Despite stumbling out of the gate,Rispoli said he never lost confidence in the 4-year-old-bay colt. Thousands of race fans turned out in style for Opening Day of Del Mar’s 87th summer racing season on July 17, filling the grandstands and trackside areas for one of Southern California’s signature summer traditions. Attendees embraced the annual celebration with colorful hats, elaborate fascinators and race-day fashion while cheering on the horses, placing bets and enjoying a full day of racing.

both the Kentucky Derby and Belmont Stakes. The spotlight followed him into Saturday’s Grade II San Diego Handicap at Del Mar Racetrack, where Journalism faced an early challenge after stumbling out of the starting gate and falling several lengths behind the five-horse field. Ridden by jockey Umberto Rispoli, the 4-year-old closed the gap before passing The Goat in the stretch to win the $300,000 race by three-quarters of a length. Journalism completed the 1 1/16-mile race in 1:42.65.

el Mar’s 87th summer racing season opened over the weekend at the seaside oval with all eyes on Journalism. Not a reporter, but a 4-year-old bay colt who has become one of Thoroughbred racing’s biggest headline-makers. “That horse won a couple big races last year,” Del Mar Thoroughbred Club Director of Events & Promotions Chris Bahr said. “Journalism will be the one to watch here.” The attention came after a breakthrough 2025 campaign in which Journalism captured three Grade I races, winning the Santa Anita Derby, Preakness Stakes and Haskell Stakes while finishing second in

Rispoli said in remarks distributed by the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club. Trainer Michael McCarthy said Journalism’s ability to recover after the start showed the colt’s quality. “He didn’t look like he was totally set behind. Looked like he kicked the doors a time or two. Looked like he had one foot in front of the other. When the doors opened he went to reset and it caused him to drop down. But Umberto (Rispoli) did a good job of getting him to recover and his class won out,” McCarthy said in remarks distributed by the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club. While Journalism delivered the weekend’s signature performance, Opening Day provided a strong start to the meet. Friday’s Opening Day attracted 21,422 fans to the Del Mar Fairgrounds for the first of 32 racing days scheduled through Sept. 7. Total wagering reached $21,021,373, including $3,011,802 bet on track, according to the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club. The day’s featured race, the $150,000 Oceanside Stakes, saw Proletariat cover one mile on the turf in 1:33.54, matching the stakes record set in 2004. Strident Miss also made headlines by winning the fifth race at 40-1 odds, creating an
$80,363.10 Pick 6 carryover for Saturday. The weekend concluded Sunday with King of Gosford taking the $131,000 Wickerr Stakes, grabbing the lead early under Rispoli and holding it throughout the one-mile turf race. The 5-year-old, trained by Phil D’Amato, finished 1 1/4 lengths ahead of the field while completing the race in 1:34.48 for the eighth win of his career. “When the speed horse next to me at the break stumbled, I said, ‘A h.’ I put my horse on the lead and he went well from there,” Rispoli said in remarks distributed by the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club. “At the top of the lane I asked him and he had a good kick home.” D’Amato said the front-running trip was not the original plan. “Our plan was to stalk, but he broke really sharp and Umberto didn’t see anyone else wanting the lead,” D’Amato said in remarks distributed by the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club. “This is exactly what we needed — a confidence booster.” Looking ahead, another familiar name will add to the meet’s star power: Hall of Fame jockey Mike Smith. “Our jockey colony is one of the best in the world,” TURN TO OPENING DAY ON 20

Veteran Lacayo’s legacy still alive and kicking Strike Force kicker chasing history, hardware
O
By Noah Perkins
ff the top of his head, San Diego Strike Force kicker Ernesto Lacayo isn’t exactly sure how many points he has accumulated over 15 seasons of professional indoor football spread across multiple leagues. But he knows exactly how long he wants his career to last. Seventeen seasons. That’s the number Lacayo is chasing. Reaching that mark would surpass the professional indoor football longevity record currently held by kicker Mark Lewis, the sport’s all-time leading scorer, who played 16 seasons. Lacayo knows Lewis’ career scoring record is likely out of reach — he estimates Lewis has at least 500 more points — but longevity remains a milestone within reach and one that would secure his own place in indoor football history. “Mark Lewis is one of our all-time great arena kickers. Now that I’ve gotten close to it, and I’m here, my goal is to break the record. By getting to year 17, I think that will probably be the end for me,” Lacayo told The Coast News. “I’ve always said I want to be respectful to my wife and everyone who has supported me throughout my career. But everyone keeps telling me, ‘At this point, go break it. Go break the record. Do what you need to do.’” “I already have many records, but the one I can really hold my hat on is the fact that I can break Mark Lewis’ career record — not the points record, because what he’s done is amazing and he is always the pedestal I have aimed at.” While Lacayo continues chasing his own piece of history, he is also helping lead the Strike Force toward a championship opportunity. On Saturday evening at Frontwave Arena, in front of nearly 4,000 fans, San Diego clinched the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference and secured homefield advantage throughout the playoffs with a domi-

nant 70-30 victory over the New Mexico Chupacabras. The win moved the Strike Force to 12-3 on the season and marked the first time in franchise history San Diego earned the top seed in the West. Lacayo contributed 14 points in the victory. “Ernesto has kind of a boring job sometimes because we go for it on fourth down more than any team in the league,” Strike Force head coach Taylor Genuser said. “He’s taken a lot of pride in making his PATs and being effective on kickoffs. He’s a veteran presence for us and does a great job helping the other special
teams units. He knows exactly what he’s doing.” This season, Lacayo has accounted for 113 points, converting 5 of 11 field-goal attempts and 82 of 95 extra-point tries. Lacayo, 37, returned to the Strike Force after helping send the team to the Western Conference championship game in 2025, delivering the game-winning extra point in a back-andforth playoff victory over the Arizona Rattlers. It marked another chapter in his relationship with the franchise. Lacayo also played for San Diego in 2019 and has spent several offseasons training in Carls-
bad with former NFL kicker John Carney. “For me, if I’m ever blessed and grateful enough to make it to the Hall of Fame, I would like to be able to finish with San Diego because it’s the team I’ve played with the most in my career. This is my third year with them,” Lacayo said. “When you go into a Hall of Fame, you always want to attach one team to your name, and I would love to attach the San Diego Strike Force to mine.” “But as we learn in sports, you never know what every year is going to bring. My goal is to finish out here, and along the way, these last
two years, especially heading into my final season, I’d like to groom somebody who can take the next step and continue what I started here.” Lacayo, a 5-foot-8 kicker out of Hastings College, an NAIA program in Nebraska, has never fit the traditional mold of the prototypical kicker. He has instead built his professional career through consistency and reliability. He also credited Strike Force veteran quarterback Nate Davis as one of the best holders he has worked with during his career. “I know they want to get rid of him as a holder, but he’s really good at what he does,” Lacayo said. “He’s one of the top three holders I’ve ever had. He’s very meticulous in what he does. You can just tell from his body of work. “But it’s also my job, just in case he does go down or
we don’t want to risk him, to get some of these guys an opportunity to learn how to hold and get comfortable with it. I always tell these young guys, the more you can do in the special teams aspect, the better chance you have of moving up to the higher levels.” For Lacayo, longevity came with preparation. “I’m actually stronger and striking the ball better than I was earlier in my career,” Lacayo said. “I was 170 pounds when I started playing professionally, but over the years I wanted to add more muscle mass and more weight behind the ball. I noticed I became less injury-prone as I got bigger and stronger.” The Strike Force close the regular season against the Tucson Sugar Skulls at 6 p.m. tonight at Frontwave Arena before hosting Tucson in the first round of the playoffs on Aug. 2.

Theatre School brings summer Shakespeare to life By Leo Place
OLIVENHAIN — All the world’s a stage for The Theatre School at North Coast Repertory Theatre in the summer, as youth actors hold annual outdoor Shakespeare performances throughout North County. This summer’s performances of William Shakespeare’s tragicomedy “The Winter’s Tale” mark the 11th year of The Theatre School’s summer Shakespeare program, featuring free outdoor performances for the community in three coastal North County cities. The Theatre School premiered “The Winter’s Tale” from July 16-18 with performances outside the Olivenhain Meeting Hall along Rancho Santa Fe Road. Additional performances will take place at the San Dieguito Lagoon’s Birdwing Open Air Classroom in Del Mar from July 23-25, La Colonia Park in Solana Beach on July 31 and at North Coast Repertory Theatre in Solana Beach on Aug. 1. Ben Cole, Director of Theatre School Education and Outreach, said all of the venues are slightly different, giving the cast a chance to adapt to different environments. “It’s a unique opportunity that we get to perform outdoors. A lot of student theater is indoors, so we feel very proud to be in three different cities in three different outdoor venues. Each of the stages we have to adapt for each of our performanc-

Podesta, a rising senior at Carlsbad High School, has been with The Theatre School for five years, and this is her second year participating in the summer Shakespeare program. “I get to portray love,
cross-stitch pieces. She also had a deep appreciation for vintage cars and enjoyed admiring their timeless beauty and craftsmanship. One of the things that made Donna uniquely herself was her love for her pet rats, which she cared for with great affection and considered cherished companions. Donna is survived by her husband John Kaitangian, her sisters Uneva Johnson, Terri Lyon and Deena Coffey, and her brother, Thomas (Margie) McLaughlin. She was preceded in death by her parents Don McLaughlin and Nora McLaughlin, her brothers Ronnie McLaughlin and Jordan McLaughlin, and her sister Nancy McLaughlin. Though our hearts are heavy with grief, we are grateful for the many years we shared with Donna and for the love and wisdom she gave so freely. Donna will be deeply missed, forever loved, and never forgotten.

Dolores Welty January 19, 1935 June 18, 2026
Local legend and political activist, Dolores Welty, passed June 18th of 2026, at the age of 91. Dolores was born in Lusk, WY, on January 19, 1935, to Abdon Frank DeCastro and Edna Mae Howard DeCastro. She moved from Wyoming to California at the age of 18 to pursue a degree in English at the University of Redlands. She became a high
school English teacher and raised a family in Southern California, eventually settling in Encinitas. Following her professional career, Dolores spent her retirement as a political activist on a broad range of issues. As a slow growth proponent, she fought property developers in her adopted hometown of Encinitas. As an environmental advocate, she co-founded the California Environmental Law Project, which won numerous landmark environmental justice cases in the Western United States, including forcing the City of Los Angeles to give back the water it stole from Owen’s Valley farmers (an injustice made famous by the movie Chinatown). As a human rights activist, she violated the embargo against Cuba to
ready to go back on stage. All of that adds to the connection with the audience,” Bunyak, 18, said. For Bunyak, the summer performances through North Coast Repertory have inspired a life-changing passion for Shakespeare. They started participating in summer Shakespeare with The Theatre School back in 2020, when the school persevered through the pandemic to perform “The Tempest” via Zoom. Since then, Bunyak has performed main roles in “Much Ado About Nothing,” “As You Like It,” “Hamlet,” the touring student outreach production of “Romeo and Juliet” and now “The Winter’s Tale,” as well as other non-Shakespeare productions. The recent San Dieguito Academy graduate will pursue a Bachelor of Fine Arts in acting at the University of Minnesota this fall. All performances of “The Winter’s Tale” take place at 5:30 p.m. and are free for the community to attend. Audiences are encouraged to bring their own blankets and outdoor seating. The play runs for 90 minutes with no intermission. “It’s live, it’s free and I think it’s really quality Shakespeare acting with teenage performers,” Cole said.

Carlsbad’s Manka delivers real Peruvian cuisine taste of wine & food
P

eru has quietly become one of the world’s great culinary destinations. Its cuisine blends Indigenous, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, African and Italian influences into one of the planet’s most diverse and exciting food cultures. Carlsbad diners can now experience that rich culinary heritage at Manka Peruvian Cuisine, located just a few blocks from Carlsbad Village. After taking over the longtime location of Pollos Maria, owner Jorge Wong spent a year and a half transforming the familiar landmark into an upscale dining destination celebrating the authentic flavors of Peru. The renovation included an updated kitchen, dining room, heated patio and striking murals by Peruvian artist Rudolph Castro. Traditional vessels incorporated throughout the artwork inspired the restaurant’s name. Manka, the Quechua word for “pot” or “vessel,” is deeply rooted in Peruvian

culture and is famously associated with Pachamanca, an ancient feast in which food is cooked beneath the earth. An added convenience is abundant parking, including free public lots, street parking and spaces behind the restaurant, a rarity this close to Carlsbad Village. Shortly after being welcomed by my server, Jonathan Napolis, Wong joined me for dinner and suggested beginning with a refreshing glass of Chi-

cha Morada, Peru’s beloved purple corn beverage infused with fruit and spices. Next came Peru’s signature Pisco Sour, handcrafted with grape brandy, fresh lime juice, Angostura bitters and frothy egg white. Both paired perfectly with the appetizers. Ceviche Manka combined mahi mahi, tender octopus, shrimp, choclo and chulpi corn, sweet potato brulee, fried seaweed and crisp plantain chips in vibrant rocoto tiger’s milk. The anise-infused
sweet potato was the surprise star, its subtle spice reminding me of Thanksgiving. Equally memorable were the Anticuchos de Corazón, tender veal heart skewers grilled over high heat and served with golden potatoes, giant Peruvian corn and chimichurri. Conversation over appetizers revealed the journey that brought Wong from Lima to Carlsbad. Born to a Chinese-Peruvian family, he arrived in Southern California at 19

intending to study engineering before discovering a passion for hospitality at the famed Polo Lounge at the Beverly Hills Hotel. “I would think about the cost of every chair, every table and every kitchen tool,” Wong recalled. “I became fascinated by everything that created the restaurant experience.” That attention to detail is evident throughout Manka. Wong went on to open Mancora Peruvian Cuisine and Las Brasas in Los Angeles before bringing his vision for Manka’s upscale experience to Carlsbad. Executive Chef Julio Arias, whose culinary career includes luxury hotels in Peru and New York’s acclaimed Artesano Peruvian Cuisine, shares Wong’s commitment to elevating authentic Peruvian cuisine. For entrees, Wong recommended Fettuccine a la Huancaina con Lomo Saltado. Tender wok-fired beef was served beside fettuccine coated in a rich, creamy Huancaina cheese sauce, highlighting the Chinese influence that helped shape modern Peruvian
cuisine. Also outstanding was Arroz con Pato, featuring perfectly cooked duck breast served over traditional norteño rice with vegetables and Huancaina sauce. Dinner ended with Cheesecake de Maracuyá, a silky passion-fruit cheesecake topped with passion-fruit syrup, berries, mint and graham crumble. When I asked Wong about the blend of cheeses used, he simply smiled and replied, “It’s a secret.” Whether dining beneath Castro’s colorful murals inside or on the heated patio, Manka delivers an authentic taste of Peru through refined hospitality, handcrafted cocktails and exceptional cuisine.

SAN DIEGO — San Diego County agricultural officials are urging anyone who purchased a desert willow plant from Costco between June 24 and July 3 to check whether it may be carrying two invasive pests. The Broad-headed Sharpshooter and the Glassy-winged Sharpshooter, two insects that spread plant diseases, arrived on some of the plants from a nursery in Texas. The plants were sold at Costco warehouses throughout California, including seven locations in San Diego County. Both pests can spread Pierce’s disease, which has caused millions of dollars in losses to Califor-
nia’s wine grape industry, according to the county. The Glassy-winged Sharpshooter is already present in San Diego County, and California has established management programs for the pest. However, officials said introducing the Broad-headed Sharpshooter, not currently found in California, “could increase the risk of spreading destructive plant diseases to vineyards, orchards, nurseries, landscapes and home gardens.” Agricultural officials have already inspected plants at local Costco warehouses, but about 200 plants sold in San Diego County remain unaccounted for.

Study: E-bike injuries increasing ‘exponentially’ By City News Service
"Families should understand these risks, ensure riders wear properly fitted helmets and provide appropriate supervision and training. Safety education needs to grow as quickly as e-bike adoption and safety is our target for trauma injury prevention and advocacy." In general, e-bikes are heavier and capable of higher speeds than conventional bicycles, factors that may contribute to more serious injuries when collisions occur, the study's authors said. To better understand trends, researchers analyzed data from the California Highway Patrol's Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System, examining collisions involving e-bikes and traditional bicycles from 2018 through 2024. The analysis included 4,035 e-bike collisions and 58,332 collisions involving traditional bicycles. The results found that injuries involving e-bikes occurred among younger riders, who were also more likely to ride at unsafe
speeds. The crashes also occurred more frequently in affluent communities. "E-bikes are here to stay, and they provide substantial benefits to mobility and recreation," said Dr. Jay Doucet, voluntary clinical professor of surgery at the UC San Diego School of Medicine. "However, our study found a dramatic increase in e-bike injuries across California, including a disproportionate number involving children and low rates of helmet use among injured riders. "Parents need to understand what they are buying for their children, and communities and policymakers need to recognize that safety infrastructure, education and policy have not kept pace with adoption. As trauma surgeons, we will continue our advocacy efforts to ensure that the benefits of e-bikes are realized while reducing preventable injuries and deaths." The city of San Diego is the latest local municipality to adopt e-bike regulations,

racing season, celebrating the Year of the Horse in true Del Mar fashion. Opening Day kicked off the extended 32-day summer meet with 10 races, totaling $21 million in handle. Friday’s card began with the one-mile dirt race won by Mighty Kai and jockey Tiago Pereira, who pulled ahead in the final stretch to the roar of the crowd. In the featured $150,000 Oceanside Handicap later that day, Proletariat secured an early lead and took home the winning title in the one-mile race on the turf, ridden by jockey Kyle Frey.
Trainer Mike McCarthy saw three Opening Day victories, with Victorious Dream and Lost Angeles taking back-to-back wins in the second and third races and Detain (IRE) winning the sixth race. “Things kind of fell into place,” McCarthy told the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club. “We got some pretty good rides and the horses were ready to run.” Opening Day is a tradition for many attendees, who come to enjoy the racing action and the trackside fashion. Most in the crowd were dressed to the nines, with many donning impressive hats in hopes of winning the annual Opening Day Hats Contest. “It’s the hats and the outfits. Absolutely. Of course, the races are fun,” said Ariel Green of Las Vegas, whose picnic-inspired look featured a cherry basket purse, salad headpiece, and gingham attire adorned with various foods. Many hats featured motifs in alignment with this year’s contest theme, Hats Off to America. Chun-
SAN DIEGO — As the use of electric bicycles, or e-bikes, has grown dramatically across California, the number of injuries involving them has grown "exponentially," according to a report released Friday by UC San Diego Health researchers. From just two injuries in 2018 to 1,506 in 2024, injuries involving e-bikes are also more likely to be moderate to severe than those involving traditional bicycles. "One of our most concerning findings was the disproportionately high number of injured children involved in e-bike crashes," said Dr. John Austin, general surgery resident and research fellow at the UC San Diego School of Medicine and first author of the study. "E-bikes provide valuable transportation and recreational benefits, but their higher speeds can generate crash forces more comparable to motorcycles than traditional bicycles, leading to potentially severe injuries.

Bahr said. “Mike Smith’s the guy that kind of stands out, and most people now recognize. He doesn’t quite race as much anymore, but he still rides the biggest races.” Live racing resumes Thursday, with Del Mar continuing its schedule of racing Thursday through Sunday before closing on Labor Day, Sept. 7.

savings to roughly $60 billion, a target unlikely to be achieved by a Republican governor facing a Democratic supermajority. Hilton’s contribution is not a detailed fiscal blueprint but
citing previous studies and reports from physicians. Those regulations will take effect in August. "Without a doubt these regulations will save lives," Councilmember Raul Campillo said. "I'm incredibly grateful to everyone who has rallied around this important issue to help keep children and families safe throughout our city." Following this month's approval, the city began a 30-day public outreach campaign before enforcement takes effect, followed by a 60-day warning period before citations are issued. Specifically, the regulations: • Impose a minimum age of 12 for Class 1 and Class 2 e-bikes. • Reinforce helmet requirements and passenger restrictions. Passengers are allowed only if the e-bike is specifically designed to accommodate multiple riders with a permanent second seat. • Allow cited individuals to complete an e-bike safety course instead of
paying a $25 fine. "As a pediatric trauma surgeon at Rady Children's Hospital who cares for injured children every week, I've seen how quickly e-bike crashes can change a family's life," Dr. Romeo Ignacio Jr. said. "Children under 12 simply aren't developmentally ready for the speed, weight and split-second decisions e-bikes demand. This proposal for an age restriction gives families a clear standard, helps schools and community groups teach safety more effectively, and aligns San Diego with national trends toward responsible e-mobility." In 2024, county hospitals recorded 865 emergency department visits and 186 hospitalizations related to e-bike crashes. Earlier this year, San Diego County officials issued an advisory recommending doctors counsel patients and families on applicable laws, screen for e-bike use during injury and well-child visits, and encourage safety training programs.
The California Vehicle Code defines e-bikes as "a bicycle equipped with fully operable pedals and an electric motor of less than 750 watts." It divides e-bikes into three categories: Class 1: Provides assistance only while the rider is pedaling and stops providing assistance at 20 mph. Class 2: Operates via pedal assist or throttle and stops providing assistance at 20 mph. Class 3: Provides assistance only while the rider is pedaling and stops providing assistance at 28 mph. State law allows Class 1, 2 and 3 e-bikes to operate on public roadways and bike paths, according to the San Diego Police Department. However, "high-powered electric motorcycles are not street legal," officials said. "The growing number of severe injuries among young riders makes it clear that deceivingly powerful e-bikes pose a significant danger to children," county Public Health Officer Dr. Sayone Thihalolipavan said.

Favorite Journalism, ridden by Umberto Rispoli, had a tardy start out of the gate but eventually pulled ahead to win his seventh career title in the one-andone-sixteenth-mile San Diego Handicap.

a diagnosis: California has a spending problem rather than a revenue problem. A Republican governor facing a Democratic supermajority Legislature will not close a $60 billion gap by nicely asking lawmakers to cut a third of state spending. What Hilton of-
fers that Becerra does not is the correct framing of the problem, with a willingness to say so publicly. In a race where his opponent wants to expand programs he cannot afford while calling the expansion a fiscal plan, that counts for something. In January 2028, the next governor will inherit a $35 billion structural deficit, depleted reserves, counties already under fiscal pressure, and a Legislature accustomed to balancing budgets with temporary fixes. Most major spending categories will be legally or politically difficult to cut, while revenue will remain dependent on volatile capital gains. Political pressure to increase taxes and fees will be

intense, even as higher-income taxpayers remain the state’s most volatile revenue source. Herb Morgan wants to stop tomorrow’s waste. The next governor must confront yesterday’s promises. Gavin Newsom will depart Sacramento in January, leaving his successor the gift of a budget balanced only in his imagination. Whatever Becerra and Hilton are promising on the campaign trail, that fiction will be the next governor’s inheritance. Garvin Walsh, retired from a career on Wall Street, is a resident of Cardiff-by-the-Sea. He is an elected member of the San Diego County Republican Central Committee.

La Costa Glen duo strikes a chord through song Talent show meeting sparks songwriting duo By Cameron Adams
CARLSBAD — Candy Carrigan heard something she liked in the singing voice of Lyn Hance. Both have lived at the La Costa Glen retirement community for about five years but had never met until a resident showcase three years ago. Carrigan, a multi-instrumentalist with a passion for music production, approached Hance after hearing the former professional singer perform in the show. “She said, ‘I enjoyed your singing, do you ever write lyrics?’” Hance recalled. “I said, ‘Yeah,’ and she said, ‘Would you ever consider listening to my music? Maybe doing something with it?’” The duo hit it off instantly and have been making music ever since. They recently released three original songs about love, change and reflection. “Some of the best advice I had gotten before retirement was, so much of your life is work while you’re still working, so now you need something to motivate you and keep you going,” Carrigan said. “And that, for me, was music. So that’s my motivation.” She said her interest in music began with the Broad-

way show tunes her mother introduced her to. Growing up in New Jersey, Carrigan wanted to play drums in grammar school, but she said: “They wouldn’t let me because girls don’t play drums.” She later took up the saxophone and learned to play the ukulele from a music instructor who also taught her music theory and introduced her to Apple’s GarageBand, allowing her to continue making music while socially distancing
during the COVID-19 lockdowns. “I really haven’t looked back,” Carrigan said. “I just keep going, keep learning, mostly teaching myself.” She now creates music from a workstation in her La Costa Glen home. Hance left her professional singing career behind in her early 50s. She performed with artists including Bob Seger and Question Mark and the Mysterians while living in Michigan. In addition to writing
and recording music, the duo also collaborate on short stories. “We have a lot of laughs when we get together,” Carrigan said. “We’re supposed to be working, but we laugh a lot.” Carrigan releases music under the name Pauciloquent, a word she learned through a game at La Costa Glen that means someone who uses few words. As a natural introvert, she said, expressing herself through music comes more easily than through conversation. Hance said Carrigan will often bring her several pieces of music she has been working on. “Out of those tunes, I hear something that I can do something with,” Hance said. “In other words, shape a melody and words within her music that I can sing to.” Both women said one
benefit of their artistic partnership comes from the self-knowledge they have gained over the years. Hance said they are “beyond being influenced” by other artists and “just do our own self now.” “Rather than trying to please everybody else, you work to make yourself happy,” Carrigan said. “It’s nice to have a place to just come and let it go,” Hance said.
Pharmacists vote authorizes possible strike
Pharmacists at some of Southern California’s major supermarket chains have voted this week to authorize a strike “should one become necessary,” union officials said.
“Last night, hundreds of United Food and Commercial Workers pharmacists represented by UFCW local unions across Southern California overwhelmingly authorized their bargaining committee to call for an Unfair Labor Practice strike ... in response to Ralphs’ and Albertsons’ alleged unlawful conduct during contract negotiations,” the UFCW said in a statement Friday. The vote does not necessarily mean a strike will occur, and parties are scheduled to return to the bargaining table Aug. 6-7. The UFCW said bargaining has been ongoing for four months under an expired contract. The UFCW represents nearly 800 pharmacists who work at Ralphs, Vons, Albertsons and Pavilions in California. “Albertsons, Vons and Pavilions in Southern California have been actively engaged in good faith negotiations with the UFCW regarding our pharmacists since January,” a company spokesperson said. “We respect the negotiation process and remain committed to continuing good faith negotiations with the union until we reach an agreement that is good for our associates, our customers and our company.” Representatives for Ralphs did not immediately respond to a request for comment. — City News Service

LEGALS Coast News legals continued from 11 To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of Melody J. Flangan. A Petition for Probate has been filed by Robert J. Flanagan in the Superior Court of California, County of San Diego – Central Courthouse. The Petition for Probate requests that Robert J. Flanagan be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent. The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority. A hearing on the petition will be held in this court as follows: Date: August 18, 2026; Time: 9:30 AM; in Dept.: 503; Court address: 1100 Union St., San Diego CA 92101, Central Courthouse. https://www.sdcourt.ca.gov/ sdcourt/probate2/probatevh *Court appearances may be made either in person or virtually, unless otherwise ordered by the Court.

The MS Teams video conference links and phone numbers can be found at www.sdcourt.ca.gov/ ProbateHearings. Plan to check in 15 minutes prior to the scheduled hearing time.

This Notice shall satisfy the above-cited separate but related procedural notification requirements for activities to be undertaken by the City of Oceanside. REQUEST FOR RELEASE OF FUNDS On or about 08/25/2026, the City of Oceanside Housing & Neighborhood Services Department will submit a request to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for the release of funds under the Housing Choice Voucher Program, comprised of 50 Project-Based Vouchers (PBV) and 11 Veteran Affairs Supportive Housing (VASH) vouchers authorized under Section 8(o)(13) of the United States Housing Act of 1937, as amended, to undertake a project known as the Olive Park Apartments for the purpose of constructing 199 affordable multifamily residential units in two four-story buildings. All dwelling units would be affordable to low, very-low, and extremely low-income households. The development will be located west of the terminus of Olive Drive, south of the North County Transit District (NCTD) rail line and College Boulevard Sprinter Station, in the Mira Costa neighborhood of Oceanside, California (Assessor’s Parcel Number 162-111-04). The project consists of two four-story residential buildings containing one-, two-, and three-bedroom units. Construction is expected to begin October 2026 and conclude November 2027. The project would provide 382 surface parking spaces and approximately 35,582 square feet of common open space. Federal funding for the project consists of 50 Project-Based Vouchers with and 11 Veteran Affairs Supportive Housing (VASH) vouchers with an estimated annual funding amount of $2,651,220. The estimated total HUD funded amount over 20 years is $53,024,400 The estimated total project cost (HUD and non-HUD funds) is $143,907,702. The City prepared an Environmental Review in accordance with the requirements of 24 CFR Part 58 of the National Environmental Policy Act. An Environmental Review Record (ERR) that documents the environmental determination for the project is on file at the City of Oceanside, Housing & Neighborhood Services Department, 321 N. Nevada Street, Oceanside, CA 92054 where the ERR can be examined or copied Monday through Thursday from 7:30 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. and on Fridays from 7:30 A.M. to 4:00 P.M. FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT The City of Oceanside has determined that this development will have no significant impact on the human environment. Therefore, an Environmental Impact Statement under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) is not required. Additional project information is contained in the ERR. The ERR will be made available to the public for review either electronically or by U.S. mail. Please submit your request by U.S. mail to City of Oceanside Housing, Manuel H. Perez, 321 N. Nevada Street, Oceanside, CA 92054 or by email to mperez@oceansideca.org. The ERR can be accessed online at the following website https://cpd.hud.gov/cpd-public/api/envreviews/downloads/3168?fileName=ERR_900000010519197_Olive-ParkApartments_Oceanside_CA_EA_PN_08192026_1783638000742.docx PUBLIC COMMENTS ON FONSI / NOI RROF: Any individual, group, or agency disagreeing with this determination or wishing to comment on the ERR project may submit written comments to City of Oceanside Housing, Manuel H.

All comments received by 08/08/26 will be considered by the City of Oceanside prior to authorizing submission of a request for release of funds. Commenters should specify which part of this Notice they are addressing. ENVIRONMENTAL CERTIFICATION The City of Oceanside certifies to HUD Los Angeles Field Office that Jonathan Borrego in his capacity as City Manager, consents to accept the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts if an action is brought to enforce responsibilities in relation to the environmental review process and that these responsibilities have been satisfied. HUD’s approval of the certification satisfies its responsibilities under NEPA and related laws and authorities and allows the City of Oceanside to use Program funds. OBJECTIONS TO RELEASE OF FUNDS The HUD Los Angeles Field Office will accept objections to its release of funds and the City of Oceanside certification for a period of fifteen days following the anticipated submission date or its actual receipt of the request (whichever is later) only if they are on one of the following bases: (a) the certification was not executed by the Certifying Officer of the City of Oceanside; (b) the City of Oceanside has omitted a step or failed to make a decision or finding required by HUD regulations at 24 CFR part 58; (c) the grant recipient or other participants in the development process have committed funds, incurred costs or undertaken activities not authorized by 24 CFR Part 58 before approval of a release of funds by HUD; or (d) another Federal agency acting pursuant to 40 CFR Part 1504 has submitted a written finding that the project is unsatisfactory from the standpoint of environmental quality. Objections must be prepared and submitted via email in accordance with the required procedures (24 CFR Part 58, Sec. 58.76) and shall be addressed to HUD at CPDLA@hud.gov or to HUD Los Angeles Office of Public Housing at HUDLOSANGELESOPH@hud.gov. Potential objectors should contact HUD or HUD Los Angeles Office of Public Housing via email to verify the actual last day of the objection period.
