ENCINITAS — A 73-year-old man was struck and killed by a vehicle after getting out of his car to render aid at a multi-vehicle crash on northbound Interstate 5 in Encinitas on Saturday, according to the San Diego County Medical Examiner’s Office. Berhane Woldemicael, of San Diego, was struck about 3:05 a.m. on Sept. 12 just north of Leucadia Boulevard and pronounced dead at the scene at 3:10 a.m., according to the medical examiner’s office. Emergency personnel responded to a crash involving at least three vehicles. Woldemicael, who was involved in the initial collision, got out to render aid before being struck by another vehicle, according to the report. The collision involved at least three vehicles, including a black SUV, a Nissan Sentra and a Honda Civic, according to the California Highway Patrol. Authorities did not immediately specify which vehicle Woldemicael had occupied or which vehicle struck him. The CHP issued a SigAlert at 3:17 a.m. while authorities investigated. His daughter, Meri Williams, provided the correct spelling of her father’s name, which the medical examiner’s report misspelled. In an email to The Coast News, she described him as “truly a pillar of the Eritrean and Ethiopian communities in San Diego.” “He passed away just as he lived: serving others and providTURN TO CRASH ON 6

engulfed in flames. Michael, 73, and Kathryn, 72, died in the fire, along with their dog, Journey. Alvarado was charged with two counts of murder, and one count each of arson causing great bodily injury, arson of an inhabited structure and animal cruelty. Alvarado was arraigned on murder and arson charges, but his attorney requested a mental competency examination, which Superior Court Judge Harry Elias ordered. Dozens of the Austins’ family members attended the April arraignment, when Elias paused criminal proceedings pending the competency evaluation.
Tanya Sierra, a spokesperson for the District Attorney’s Office, said Alvarado can remain in state hospital custody for up to two years. Within 90 days of his commitment, the state hospital’s executive director must submit a written report to the court outlining his progress toward competency. In Alvarado’s case, the report is due no later than Oct. 8.

Carlsbad declares emergency over coastal erosion North Ponto bluff erosion puts roadway at risk By Cameron Adams
CARLSBAD — The city of Carlsbad declared a local emergency Sept. 9 to expedite stabilization of an eroding coastal bluff supporting southbound Carlsbad Boulevard ahead of potential strong El Niño conditions this fall and winter. The declaration followed a geotechnical report received Sept. 8 recommending emergency stabilization of the bluff above North Ponto Beach, north of the bridge at Las Encinas Creek, according to a release. The work calls for extending an existing rock barrier, known as a revetment, approximately 192 feet north to protect the bluff, shoreline and roadway from erosion. Crews could begin placing boulders as early as the week of Sept. 14, pending an emergency coastal development permit from the California Coastal Commission. The National Weather Service’s Climate Prediction Center in College Park, Maryland, said in its Sept. 10 advisory that there is a greater than 90% chance of a very strong El Niño during the fall and winter of 2026-27. The center also estimated a 75% chance that the event’s strength during the October-December period would exceed that of previous El Niño events dating to 1950. The city said it routinely monitors coastal areas under its control. During a June 25 inspection along south Carlsbad Boulevard, staff observed cracks in the pavement on the shoulder and in the bike lane. Staff placed orange cones and caution signs in the area, sealed the cracks to help stabilize the road and prevent moisture from entering the pavement, and began regularly monitoring

the bluff for movement. The city also sought geotechnical expertise to investigate the stability of the bluff and roadway. In mid-July, the city hired an independent geotechnical consulting firm to investigate the site and recommend further action. Beginning in August, city staff met with Coastal Commission staff to discuss the erosion, proposed emergency work and an application for an emergency coastal development permit. The resulting Sept. 8 report recommended emergency stabilization measures, including extending the revetment. “As we’ve seen throughout this year, the city takes a proactive approach to monitoring and maintaining
our infrastructure, particularly ahead of storm seasons, so we can identify potential issues and address them before they become problems,” City Manager Geoff Patnoe said. “We understand this is a heavily traveled roadway, and maintaining its integrity is essential to protect-
ing public safety, as well as property and our coastal environment.” The existing revetment consists of heavy boulders along 1,270 feet of the bluff’s base. Of that total, the city said it installed 750 feet in 2009 and 520 feet in 2015 and 2016. While small cracks and other signs of erosion have appeared in the pavement north of the barrier, the roadway protected by the existing revetment remains stable, the city said. A city spokesperson told The Coast News that the emergency declaration helps streamline contracting and permitting. “The estimated cost of the emergency work exceeds the formal bidding threshold, and the formal bidding process takes approximately four to six months,” the spokesperson said. “The action of an emergency declaration al-
lows the city to move forward with the emergency work immediately.” The city said the work is intended to maintain public safety and coastal access for people walking, biking, driving or visiting the area. Crews would place boulders weighing between 4 and 8 tons each, beginning at the northern end of the existing revetment and extending approximately 192 feet north. Once work begins, motorists could encounter intermittent lane closures and traffic impacts along southbound Carlsbad Boulevard between Palomar Airport Road and Island Way. The city will continue monitoring conditions and provide updates as more information and a work schedule become available. The emergency dec-
laration took effect immediately and remains in place until the Sept. 15 City Council meeting, when council members will consider whether to confirm it. If confirmed, the council would review the declaration at subsequent meetings until ending the local emergency. Separately, the Coastal Commission required a full review in July of the city’s request to extend a permit for part of the existing revetment through 2031 while it seeks funding for a long-term solution. Commission records show that the city received follow-up approval in 2018 to retain previously installed portions of the barrier, as previously reported by The Coast News. The full review has not yet appeared on a commission agenda since the July action.

Get ready for El Niño
E
l Niño has been all over the news recently and will likely stay that way for the next few months, with TV weather-guessers blathering about potential devastation. Some may get tired of hearing about it and want to dismiss it as more hype because they’ve heard it before and it amounted to a big fat nothingburger. But for those of us who’ve been around these parts for more than a few minutes, we remember the El Niño of 1997-1998, which is what this year’s pattern more closely resembles, and let me tell you, that was serious business. Let’s start in the south: Seaside Beach parking lot. The big Seaside Beach parking lot had been an unimproved dirt lot for decades, and the locals loved it. Then, in about 1996 or so, the state hired an architect out of Sacramento, where they have the Sacramento River but not an ocean with tides and stuff, and they designed and built a fancy asphalt parking lot with restrooms near the west edge. They were very proud. In short order, the 1997-1998 El Niño brought a series of storms, one after another, with strong winds, numerous heavy rainstorms, very high tides, and very large swells. What happens is that when the first big waves come, they strip the beaches of sand, and what’s left underneath is the rocks, which are called “cobble." Then, when the next set of storms arrives, there’s no sandy beach to help hold back the wave action, and the ocean not only hurls the cobble onto the parking lots, but also undermines and erodes beneath. At Seaside, this caused part of the new parking lot, including those pretty new bathrooms, to collapse, rendering it unsafe and unusable. The state ended up putting “temporary” fencing around the debacle,
On Patrol Jerome Stocks which stayed there until about 2003, when the city of Encinitas hired a proper beach-knowledgeable firm to design and build it right. That’s what is there now. Moving north to Cardiff State Beach parking lot, aka “The Reef,” that much smaller parking lot suffered a similar fate, and in fact,
projects to try to alleviate the flooding issue, and there has been some improvement since 1997, but nobody can contend with a straight face that the issue is solved. Also of concern, the railroad corridor and Highway 101 between LaCosta Ave and Leucadia Boulevard have been a mess for what seems like ten years now, so let’s hope the city can get this buttoned up before any real storms materialize. The El Niño storms weren't strictly a coastal issue. Further inland, we had serious flooding and road
For many of us, we remember the El Niño of the late ’90s. And let me tell you, that was serious business.”
during that same 1997-1998 storm season, the “cobble” not only covered much of the parking lot, but at times it reportedly had rocks as much as a foot deep, rendering it closed for many days. More importantly, our vital north-south transportation system was affected because Coast Highway 101 was closed many days due to the cobble covering it as well! In downtown Encinitas, the roads and alleyways were often flooded, and many of the alleys, still dirt and rutted, developed deep ponding that could last for days, even after the storms passed. Leucadia’s tall bluffs took a real beating from the cobble being hurled like shotgun blasts into the bluff faces at high tides, and additional bluff erosion and weakening was the unfortunate but natural outcome. Additionally, Leucadia, because of its geography, experienced severe flooding along and west of Highway 101. The city has implemented numerous drainage
closures at the La Bajada Dip as well as at EL Camino Real and Leucadia Blvd. To contend with. I guess what I want to convey is that this really looks more like 1997-1998 than 2005, but Encinitas is in a better position to weather the storms than we were. We have had beach sand replenishment projects and drainage improvement projects, and our first responders are now better equipped and better trained than they were then. But we all need to do what we can to get ready, too. Clean out the rain gutters, trim back tree branches that could damage your roof in high winds, and, if you live in a low-lying area, have sandbags or other protective systems ready to deploy if needed. And if you're driving in a storm, DO NOT drive around any “road closed” or “Flooded” signs. Let’s all stay safe. Jerome Stocks is a former mayor and city councilman of Encinitas. Read more of his commentaries here.
igh-density housing that generates increased traffic and worries emergency responders is impossible to ignore. Meeting state affordable housing mandates while doing the least damage is top of mind for most of us. Doing so requires city leadership experience to manage and understand the complexities of state housing laws. Given this, now is not the time to take a chance on Encinitas mayoral candidate Rimga Viskanta. Her affordable housing solutions are false narratives that ignore the facts. Rather than demonstrating an understanding of state housing requirements, she appears willfully ignorant on the subject to mask her allegiance to Sacramento and developers. Her school board experience does not translate to navigating state housing law. Her background does not come close to opponent Mayor Bruce Ehlers’ 25 years of experience on the Planning Commission, Housing Element Task Force and City Council. Past council members who have endorsed Viskanta created housing plans that fall far short of state mandates, although they did result in more than a dozen lucrative high-density, market-rate developments. A fundraiser for school board candidates, which Viskanta attended, was recently held at the home of a major, well-heeled Encinitas developer. Viskanta’s housing positions and associations indicate that she will follow in prior councils’ footsteps. She has 25 years of experience working with her family’s real estate investment business as an account manager, according to her LinkedIn profile. This firm was criminally prosecuted by the city of Long Beach: “For the first time ever, Long Beach criminally prosecutes a landlord for housing discrimination.” Viskanta has been silent on this issue. Her affordable housing proposals are either inadmissible under state law or legally unworkable in practice. Mayor Ehlers and leaders in other cities across the state have proposed real solutions to rampant overdevelopment and state overreach, but none of Viskanta’s proposals work. Below are her solutions, in bold, in response to a questionnaire asking how she would balance the need for housing with preserving neighborhood character. We have attended numerous housing forums, studied the topic and factchecked Viskanta’s claims: Work with SANDAG to oppose the state agency HCD and negotiate fewer housing units. This is already in the current council’s goals. And if the state
auditor, after four years, can’t force HCD to recalculate inflated housing mandates, how can she? Ensure that traffic and evacuation concerns are addressed. Without legal requirements to mitigate traffic and evacuation plans, developers cannot be forced to address concerns, and she cannot “ensure” their compliance. Build “gentle density, like fourplexes and duplexes” to avoid oversized projects. HCD (Department of Housing and Community Development) does not count this type of project toward our housing requirements. “Gentle density” sounds attractive but won’t get us a single unit closer to meeting our state affordable housing obligations. Preserve “naturally occurring affordable housing” refers to existing homes. But HCD does not accept existing units in our affordable housing plans, only new builds. Work with smaller developers for lower-impact development. How would she legally bar larger companies from doing business in Encinitas? And again, “lower-impact development” isn’t acceptable to the state. Use AB 787 to buy existing buildings and convert them to affordable units. Prohibitively expensive, it would use up most of the annual budget to support and would eliminate basic services such as fire and police to accommodate the $500,000-per-unit subsidy. It is sham affordability that requires just a 10% reduction from luxury housing rates to qualify as “affordable.” For example, a $4,000-per-month unit would be lowered to $3,600 per month, which is hardly affordable for a low-income earner. In the five years since AB 787 became law, virtually no city has used it — and there’s a reason for this. Encinitas is entering our next housing cycle. We cannot afford a mayor who ignores the realities of state housing law. The solutions Viskanta espouses will serve the developer community, not residents. Her solutions are demonstrably infeasible and financially irresponsible and, worst of all, would not increase affordable housing. If elected, Rimga Viskanta would be the first mayor in our history who did not gain experience first as a council member. Now is not the time to play party politics, as her campaign team advocates. We encourage all voters to do their own homework and decide for themselves whether Rimga Viskanta is up to the task of determining the future of housing in Encinitas. Sheila Cameron and Susan Turney are both longtime Encinitas residents.

San Pasqual tribe could reclaim ex-housing site By Summer Hu
ESCONDIDO — A controversial Escondido property located in the San Pasqual Valley could be among the first land returns to the San Pasqual Band of Mission Indians, according to tribe chairman Stephen Cope. For over a decade, the Harvest Hills (formerly known as Safari Highlands Ranch) property has sat undeveloped, largely because of concerns from residents, local environmental groups and other agencies. In 2014, Concordia Homes, the property’s current owner, proposed building 550 luxury homes on the 1,100-acre site just north of the San Diego Zoo Safari Park in unincorporated San Diego County. The vacant property lies east of Rancho San Pasqual and northeast of Rancho Vistamonte. “This will be a highend neighborhood that we are confident is going to be a benefit to city, to the community, and to the people who live here,” said Don Underwood, president of Concordia Homes, during a 2014 City Council meeting. A draft environmental impact report for the project was released in October 2017. However, the project stalled after community agencies and environmental groups warned of threats to native species and the region’s high fire risk, according to NeySa Ely, founder

and CEO of San Pasqual Valley Preservation Alliance. “The fire danger becomes exponential, the damage to the habitat becomes exponential, and you really rally a lot of people to work very hard to stop (Concordia),” Ely told The Coast News. “That’s where we’ve been for the last decade.” Development would also have affected the San Pasqual tribe’s ancestral lands, which encompass the entire property and the broader San Pasqual Valley, according to Cope. In 1891, the federal government passed the Mission
Indian Relief Act to establish reservations for the San Pasqual Band of Mission Indians and other Mission Indian tribes located in Southern California. The act tasked a commissioner with restoring, as far as possible, the tribes’ original lands and villages. However, a clerical error made by the federal government’s Bureau of Indian Affairs resulted in the displacement of the San Pasqual tribe, a member of the Kumeyaay Nation, from their ancestral lands, Cope said. As part of the Mission Indian Relief Act, the BIA
designated the San Pasqual Valley as a township. As a result, the San Pasqual tribe was assigned to a separate township in the Lake Wolford area. “We’re just trying to correct a wrong,” Cope said. In February 2024, Oswit Land Trust, a Palm Springs-based nonprofit land trust dedicated to environmental preservation, signed a legally binding purchase-and-sale agreement with Concordia Homes, according to Bettina Rosmarino, Oswit’s director of land acquisition. After the purchase, Oswit plans to transfer the full
property to the San Pasqual tribe, while retaining a conservation easement to help prevent future development, Rosmarino said. The property is home to many of the San Pasqual tribe’s former villages and cultural artifacts. The San Pasqual Valley itself contains a cemetery where the tribe’s elders were buried in the early 1800s, Cope said. By preserving the region, Cope said he and many others in the San Pasqual tribe hope to “get back our history.” “It’s significant to the heritage and preservation of San Pasqual (tribe) as a whole,” Cope said. The final step is securing the funding needed to purchase the property. However, the process has taken several years, and Concordia has granted several extensions to allow more time, Rosmarino said. Oswit is seeking funding from the California Natural Resources Agency, Wildlife Conservation
Board and California State Coastal Conservancy, according to Rosmarino. The nonprofit hopes to secure tribal land return grants by year’s end to strengthen its application for a third grant from the Wildlife Conservation Board. “If the property does not get conserved — if we can’t align the funding — then the current landowners will develop it,” Rosmarino said. Although the Preservation Alliance is not involved in the negotiations, Ely said the organization strongly supports the purchase. However, Ely said she thinks Concordia may be overestimating the land’s market value, resulting in a higher asking price that is taking longer to secure funding to meet. “If we can close that gap and we can get a little bit more funding and Concordia to be a little bit more reasonable, I can foresee that land potentially being TURN TO TRIBE ON 30

Solana Beach Chamber Welcomes Torrey Pines Senior Jordan Azevedo as Marketing Intern
When you grow up with the Solana Beach ocean breeze in your backyard, giving back to your hometown comes naturally. For Torrey Pines High School senior Jordan Azevedo, that passion takes shape both on the sand and behind the screen. Before joining the Solana Beach Chamber of Commerce as its newest Marketing Intern, Jordan was already a familiar face around local sports circuits. A varsity volleyball captain at Torrey Pines, where he earned Offensive Player of the Year honors, he also competes in beach volleyball and plays club with WAVE Volleyball Club. When he isn’t on the court, you’ll likely find him coaching youth basketball or volunteering, embodying the active, community-first spirit of the local coastline. That same energy now powers the Chamber’s digital presence. Since stepping into his role in May 2026, Jordan has turned his high school coursework in Intro to Business and Marketing into high-impact, real-world storytelling. Tasked with managing social media for both the Chamber and Visit Solana Beach, he uses dynamic short-form videos and event coverage to put a spotlight on the town’s
unique charm. His creative visual push has resonated deeply, generating over 180,000 views and drawing more than 300 new followers across the platform accounts. For Jordan, the heart of the job lies in connection. One of his favorite assignments is producing the Chamber’s “Member of the Week” video series. The role gives a front-row seat to the local business community, allowing him to sit down with neighborhood entrepreneurs, hear their journeys, and share their work with the public. Whether he is showcasing hidden gems for Visit Solana Beach or capturing the collaborative energy of Chamber luncheons, ribbon cuttings, and Cheers to Careers networking nights, his focus remains on highlighting the people who make the city thrive. Supported by a Chamber team that encourages his creative input, Jordan views the internship as more than just a stepping stone for his future career; it is a tribute to the place he has always called home. As he moves through his senior year, he remains eager to keep introducing the community to the vibrant local businesses that give Solana Beach its character and championing local economic growth.

Encinitas weighs bridge repairs By Cameron Adams
ENCINITAS — A new report found that of the 46 bridges owned or maintained by the city of Encinitas, only two were in poor condition, while the majority were rated satisfactory. The assessment outlines a recommended 10-year repair plan estimated at about $5.9 million, including $3.8 million to reconstruct the San Elijo Creek Bridge. The report says the estimates are preliminary and intended for planning purposes. The city maintains nine vehicular deck bridges, 11 storm drain culverts that qualify as bridges and 26 pedestrian bridges, according to city documents. Most of the vehicular bridges were built by Caltrans and San Diego County between the 1950s and 1980s, while the pedestrian bridges were largely built in the early 2000s in line with a city master plan, according to the documents. The city allocated $275,000 for the assessment in June 2025 and awarded the contract to Kleinfelder Inc. in January 2026. Teams led by certified national bridge inspectors conducted hands-on inspections during the week of April 6, with an additional inspection of the Town Center Drive bridge on June 16. Inspectors examined major bridge components, probed timber for deterioration, checked concrete and measured cracks and other defects. Kelly Burnell of Kleinfelder told the City Council at its Sept. 9 meeting that a poor rating “doesn’t mean they’re unsafe.” “Poor means that some of the primary components of the bridge – whether it’s a column or a girder – is starting to show signs of deterioration,” Burnell said. “And that deterioration is not yet affecting the ability of the bridge to perform, but it might in the future. So we need to pay attention to it.” The two lowest-rated bridges were the South Coast Highway 101 bridge over the San Elijo Lagoon in Cardiff-by-the-Sea and the westernmost pedestrian bridge at Leucadia Oaks Park.

Burnell said the Highway 101 bridge is “in a rough spot with the tide running right under it – that’s hard on bridges.” City documents described that bridge as “the most significant structural concern” and said rehabilitation plans are already in the design phase. The report identifies the Highway 101 bridge as the highest priority and says it is already programmed for rehabilitation using federal funds through the Highway Bridge Program. Burnell said the Oaks Park bridge had a “timber structure where primary beams are showing some signs of deterioration.” Most recommended repairs throughout the city address minor issues that do not threaten the bridges’ structural integrity, the report says. Common work includes repairing timber railings or planks, removing debris from drainage channels and minor regrading. Inspectors also found concrete deterioration and signs of water intrusion at some structures. The report recommends early repairs to damaged concrete to help prevent corrosion of the reinforcing steel beneath it. The proposed 10-year plan focuses on completing or beginning recommended work on the 10 highest-priority bridges. Cost estimates assume contractors would perform the work and account for annual cost increases of 5%. Of the remaining bridges, 10 were rated fair, 26 satisfactory and eight good. Burnell said the city’s bridges were in relatively good
condition overall. “We look at a lot of bridges for a lot of cities,” Burnell said. “Overall, the condition of your structures in Encinitas is not too bad. It’s in pretty good shape.”
Man pleads guilty in fatal DUI crash
San Diego Humane Society today after their dramatic rescue from a fire at a senior living community in Escondido. Shortly before 11 a.m. Wednesday, the rescue group’s Humane Law Enforcement team was dispatched at the request of the Escondido Fire Department to assist with evacuated pets at 1225 E. Grand Ave. Residents and their pets were gathered in a community room. Two Humane Society veterinarians also responded to the scene and evaluated around two dozen animals for possible smoke inhalation and other medical concerns, but none required critical care. A total of three adult dogs and eight 4-week-old puppies were rescued from one of the apartments. The dogs were passed through a window to firefighters waiting below. No owner was present at the time of the rescue, according to a statement from SDHS. All 11 dogs were taken to the organization’s Escondido campus, where they were receiving care through the organization’s emergency boarding program. An additional dog was found running near the fire and was brought to the Escondido campus by a community member. “Our hearts go out to all affected by today’s fire,” the SDHS said.

O’side tightens site naming rules By Samantha Nelson
OCEANSIDE — The city will no longer name or rename parks and city facilities after people or groups under a policy change unanimously approved by the City Council on Sept. 2. The staff-recommended change eliminates a provision allowing such names under extraordinary circumstances. The city established its naming policy in 2003, around the time it renamed two parks to honor individuals. The policy outlined three naming categories, in order of preference: geographic location; other considerations, such as topography, plants, or cultural or historical features; and extraordinary circumstances allowing facilities to be named after a person or group. Several parks and facilities were named or renamed under the third category based on one of the following criteria: • A person’s contributions to the city through service or donations. • A person’s lifelong contributions to the city’s quality of life, provided the person was at least 65. • Posthumous recognition of someone who had been dead for at least two years. • Contributions by a person or group covering at least 60% of a facility’s development or maintenance costs, along with an agreement to pay for installing a plaque. According to staff, no parks or facilities have been named through a fundraising campaign. The city also has not recovered the costs of purchasing and installing plaques or monuments when it renamed existing facilities. Each April, staff asks the City Council for a list of facilities eligible for naming. Cesar Chavez Park was among those identified for renaming this year following a New York Times investigation that detailed allegations of sexual abuse and rape against the late civil rights and labor leader, who died in 1993. Eliminating the “extraordinary circumstances” category prohibits naming parks or city facilities after people or groups. The changes also eliminate the option to rename tennis, basketball and vol-
leyball courts, gazebos and meeting rooms. Instead, renaming efforts will focus on parks, recreation centers, community centers, trails, beach property, skate parks and sports complexes. Staff expects fewer requests to rename existing parks or facilities under the new rules. “I like the idea of slowing it down,” Mayor Esther Sanchez said, noting her preference for naming parks after geographic locations. Sanchez said the volume of requests to name parks after people makes it difficult for the city to choose whom to honor. “You want to honor all these folks, but in terms of naming a park or facility, it becomes extremely difficult,” she said. The changes do not prevent the Parks and Recreation Department from honoring people and groups through memorial benches or similar programs.
Voters urged to register, update info before election The San Diego County Registrar of Voters urged eligible residents, especially first-time voters, to register to vote or update their voter information to ensure they receive their mail ballot for the Nov. 3 general election. Sept. 15 is National Voter Registration Day, and eligible residents can register online or request a paper application by calling 800696-0136 or emailing rovmail@sdcounty.ca.gov. First-time registrants should bring either a California driver’s license or state ID number, or the last four digits of their Social Security number. After registration is verified, California voters are not required to show ID when voting in person, according to the registrar. Those already registered to vote should confirm their mailing address and other details by checking their registration status online. Mail ballot packets for the November election will be sent the week of Oct. 5. Anyone who has moved, changed their name or is new to San Diego County should re-register to vote. — City News Service
SAN MARCOS — Bringing to fruition a project that began almost 30 years ago, officials from the city of San Marcos, the county of San Diego, and National CORE unveiled the 63-unit Villa Serena Phase 2 affordable housing project Thursday morning. The new three-story apartment complex, located at 339 Marcos Street in the Richmar Neighborhood west of Twin Oaks Valley Road, offers a mix of one-, two- and three-bedroom units, along with a community room, playground and picnic area, both underground and above-ground parking, laundry facilities, and an on-site manager.å The units come furnished, and each includes an open-air balcony. Combined with the Phase I building across Marcos Street (completed in 2023), the Villa Serena project overall has produced a total of 148 affordable housing units. During a Sept. 10 ceremonial ribbon-cutting, County Supervisor Jim Desmond, a former San Marcos mayor, reflected on his time leading the city. “We were building affordable housing before affordable housing was cool,” he said. Current Mayor Rebecca Jones added, “We have almost 10% of our housing as deed-restricted affordable housing” in San Marcos. “We are changing people’s lives,” Jones said. Councilmember María Nuñez, whose District 1 includes Villa Serena, highlighted her connection to the area. “I grew up in this neighborhood,” she told those in attendance. Nuñez said residents often want to remain in the neighborhood as they grow up and start their own families, and projects like Villa Serena make that possible. Villa Serena is just a few blocks from a transit station, a city park, the senior center, and a market. The San Marcos Boys & Girls Club also offers after-school programs to children and teens living in Villa Serena. The Villa Serena project sits on the site of two apartment buildings built in the early 1970s: the Lido and Imperial buildings. John Seymour, San Diego vice president of acquisitions and forward planning for National CORE, a nonprofit affordable housing agency responsible for developing and managing

Villa Serena, said the organization purchased the two apartment buildings in 1997. “It was in disrepair. We did a moderate rehab in the late 1990s, with the ultimate goal of demolishing and rebuilding,” Seymour said. Seymour pointed out that, in tearing down and building new structures, Villa Serena increased its total apartment footprint on those plots of land by 12. In addition, Phase 2 had five units designated for special-needs residents — adding to the eight units in Phase I. These can be for people with disabilities, or young adults aging out of the foster program as they turn 18. Assistance is provided through the cooperation of the county’s Behavioral Health Services team, National CORE’s HavenCORE property management, and National CORE’s Hope through Housing Foundation. Financing for the $8.3 million in construction costs came from a mix of public and private funds, with the city, county and state contributing through different grants over the years, and low-income housing tax credits also lowering costs. Because construction costs have been paid, a spokesperson for National CORE said the below-market rent will cover operating costs in the years to come, requiring no ongoing subsidies. Eligibility for residence at Villa Serena is set at families making less than 60 percent of the area median income. Applications are accepted at the National CORE Villa Serena website. A spokesperson said some units in Phase I are still available.

Former Angel Paws site cleared for crematorium
Following an often emotional and at times contentious hearing Wednesday night, the San Marcos Planning Commission unanimously approved a permit for Manuel Villanueva, the original owner of the now-shuttered Angel Paws Pet Cremation, to operate a pet crematorium at the same site. Angel Paws closed suddenly a year ago after SDG&E cut off power for nonpayment, leaving many pets’ remains to rapidly decompose without refrigeration. The applicant, Villanueva, told commissioners that after founding the crematorium in 2005, he sold the business to Chris Settle in 2010 but remained as landlord. When the business park manager called him in September 2025 to report a strong, foul odor coming from the business, he contacted Settle. After not receiving what he viewed as an ade-
quate response, Villanueva worked with the city to obtain legal entry to the property and found the remains of more than 100 pets. Villanueva said he returned some pets’ remains to their owners based on identification tags, but the state of decomposition created a health hazard. “We couldn’t keep the pet remains any longer,” he told the commission. Wednesday’s staff report on the conditional use permit application indicated that the city had received 18 letters in support of Villanueva’s application, including letters from local veterinarians and law enforcement canine officers. The report also indicated that pet cremation is consistent with the business park zoning at 120 N. Pacific Street, although the permit requires the operator of any crematorium there to also obtain a permit from the San Diego Air Pollution Control District. In addition, staff said the city had received no complaints during the five years Villanueva operated the business. Of the 13 speakers who addressed the commission, six spoke in support of Villanueva’s application, including a local K-9 officer who had trained his canine partner with Villanueva and a former employee. The business park manager said Villanueva responded immediately and quickly took control of the situation when he called him about the odors at Angel Paws.

New homes force church to Carlsbad By Cameron Adams
CARLSBAD — A longtime church congregation has relocated from Encinitas to Carlsbad. Shadow Mountain Community Church’s former Encinitas congregation has moved its Sunday services to the Pine Avenue Community Center. The congregation worshipped for 71 years under different names at a church across from San Dieguito Academy on Santa Fe Drive, but was forced to relocate after the property owner moved forward with plans to build an approved 51-unit housing subdivision on the site. “Praise God for our new Carlsbad location,” wrote a representative of Shadow Mountain in a social media post. “We’re a small, loving congregation where everybody knows everybody.” Pastor Adam Brodwolf will continue to serve in that role at the newly named North County Campus. Brodwolf told The Coast News that, under Shadow Mountain policy, he could not comment for this story. Brodwolf led an Aug. 23 celebration of the location, which overlooked the Pacific Ocean and housed the congregation for 71 years. The group marveled “at all God has done in this place” while singing “old hymns together” and asked

“God to be with us as we start meeting at our new location in September,” according to a post signed by Brodwolf. The pastor added that he planned to bring traditions such as the “Chili Cookoff” to the new location, where the congregation will also serve coffee and doughnuts every Sunday before services, as it had in Encinitas. The North County Campus plans to meet every Sunday at 10 a.m. Shadow Mountain Community Church operates at five physical locations and offers online services. David Jeremiah serves as senior pastor of Shadow Mountain, which he has led since 1981, according to the
church’s website.
County official warns of property tax scam
San Diego County Treasurer-Tax Collector Larry Cohen warned the public about a scam falsely claiming homeowners can reduce or freeze their property taxes by filing a supposed federal IRS “Form 1098-SR.” No such IRS form or federal property tax relief program exists, Cohen said. The scam claims seniors and other homeowners can freeze or reduce their property taxes or avoid certain local taxes or school bonds. “There is no federal 1098-SR form that freezes
or reduces property taxes. If you receive an unsolicited communication promising property tax savings, take a moment to verify the information through an official government source before providing personal information or making a payment,” Cohen said. The federal government does not determine, cap or freeze local property tax assessments. California governs property taxes through state and local agencies. Scammers may use official-sounding language, social media videos or telephone calls to make fraudulent programs appear legitimate. They may also pressure homeowners to provide personal or financial information or pay a fee for a supposed tax benefit. The Treasurer-Tax Collector’s Office urged property owners to avoid sharing sensitive information or paying fees in response to unsolicited communications and to verify claims directly with an official government agency. “Scammers often rely on urgency and official-sounding language to convince property owners that they need to act immediately,” Cohen said. “If someone contacts you about your property taxes and the information doesn’t sound right, don’t act on the request until you’ve independently verified it.”
Established property tax relief programs include: Proposition 13, which generally limits annual increases in assessed value to 2%, except when ownership changes, new construction occurs or another event requires reassessment. Proposition 19, which allows eligible homeowners 55 or older, severely disabled homeowners and disaster victims to transfer their taxable base-year value to a replacement principal residence. Homeowners’ Exemption, which reduces the assessed value of an owner-occupied principal residence by $7,000. Disabled Veterans’ Exemption, which provides relief for qualifying disabled veterans and, in certain circumstances, surviving spouses. Property Tax Postponement, which allows eligible seniors and blind or disabled homeowners to postpone current-year property taxes. Eligibility requirements apply, the taxes must be repaid and a lien is placed on the property. Anyone who believes they have been scammed was urged to report the incident to law enforcement and consumer protection authorities.

O’side planners OK 41 homes in coastal projects Dr. Seuss awards $700,000 to local learning groups
By Samantha Nelson
OCEANSIDE — Planning commissioners on Monday approved two residential projects in Oceanside’s coastal communities that together will provide 41 units, including six affordable units. The first project is a four-story, 19-unit mixeduse building with just under 700 square feet of groundfloor commercial space proposed for 1032 S. Fremont Street. The site, at the corner of South Tremont and Eucalyptus streets, is a vacant asphalt lot that has been used for years for unlicensed vehicle storage. The project will offer seven one-bedroom units and 12 two-bedroom units. Two units will be reserved for very low-income households and one for moderate-income households. As a density bonus project, the inclusion of affordable units allowed the developer to increase the base density from 10 to 19 units. State density bonus law also allows the developer to request an unlimited number of waivers from local development standards and four concessions. The developer requested several waivers for setbacks, parking space dimensions and height. Under city standards, the area generally has a 45-foot height limit, but the project is expected to be 51 feet tall. The developer's only concession request was relief from the city’s requirement to place utility lines underground. Under Assembly Bill 2097, the developer does not have to provide parking because the project is less than half a mile from a major transit stop, measured in a straight line. However, the project includes 16 regular parking spaces with four electric vehicle chargers and one motorcycle space. Dane Thompson, a senior planner with the city, said the Coast Highway Sprinter station is just a few blocks away. Less than a mile from the South Tremont Street project is another similar project proposed at 1609 S. Coast Highway. The four-story building would include 22 units, split evenly between one- and two-bedroom units. Three units would be affordable, with two reserved for very low-income households and one for moderate-income households. The second project also includes two commercial suites totaling 1,457 square feet, more commercial space than the first project. The project is just south of the Morse Street intersection on a 12,000-squarefoot property with two existing commercial buildings that will be demolished to make way for the development. Like the first project, the second is a density bonus project seeking several waivers and the same concession to forgo under-

ground utilities. Although it also falls under AB 2097, the project includes 19 parking spaces, four motorcycle spaces and four electric vehicle chargers. Both projects will feature bisected structures that appear to be two buildings but are connected as one. Both will also include exterior murals. Aaron Ruby, who represented the developer of both projects at the Sept. 14 Planning Commission meeting, said the bisected design creates more openness and light for residents. “We knew from the beginning that we’re asking a relatively small site to do a lot, so we were very intentional in how we designed it,” Ruby said about the South Tremont Street project. “Our focus wasn’t simply on adding housing. We wanted to create quality homes while also making sure the building responded thoughtfully to the surrounding neighborhood.” The first project received unanimous approval, while the second passed with only Commissioner Jesse Abril opposed. Some community members expressed concerns about the projects’ size and potential effects on neighborhood street parking, given the limited number of parking spaces included. Linda Tisdale, who lives across the alley from the South Coast Highway project, worried about losing access to her home during construction. “If this is going to go on for a year, I don’t know how I’m going to handle it,” she said. Thompson said the alley would not be completely blocked under the city’s right-of-way permits. City Planner Oscar Romero also assured commissioners that Tisdale and other residents might experience blocked access for short periods, but not for entire days or weeks. “Staff will be reviewing and assuring there will be access for the residents,” he said. Tisdale also asked commissioners why they were “selling their souls to the developers,” drawing objections from some commissioners.

The Dr. Seuss Foundation announced it will award $700,000 to 18 local organizations supporting creativity, learning and positive development for children and families. The Arts & Experiential Learning grants include $625,000 from the Dr. Seuss Foundation and $75,000 from the David C. Copley Foundation. The funding follows a separate $2 million round of grants announced in May by the Dr. Seuss Foundation and San Diego Foundation through their Ready to Learn and Bright Futures programs. Those awards included support for organizations and programs in Oceanside and elsewhere in North County. Lifeline Community Services received $15,000 for after-school programming for children in Oceanside’s Crown Heights community. We Strive for Literacy received $40,000 to support its work with the Vista Literacy Collaborative. Other North County recipients in the May grant round included: • California State University San Marcos Foundation, $40,000 for “Play Create Imagine,” an early literacy initiative integrating arts, play and curiosity. • Casa de Amistad, a
Solana Beach nonprofit, $40,000 to expand early literacy programming for underserved students in kindergarten through third grade. • Fallbrook Union Elementary School District, $60,000 for its Ignite the Joy of Reading: First Grade Promise Initiative. • North County Health Project, which operates as TrueCare, $60,000 for its Let’s Read with True Care program serving children up to age 8 and their caregivers. “The Arts & Experiential Learning Grant demonstrates the Dr. Seuss Foundation’s broader commitment to whole-child development and early learning.” — City News Service

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The
LEGALS sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 800-280-2832 or visit this internet website www. ndscorp.com/sales, using the file number assigned to this case 24-03005-SM-CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the internet website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT*: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are a “representative of all eligible tenant buyers” you may be able to purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call 888-264-4010, or visit this internet website www. ndscorp.com, using the file number assigned to this case 24-03005-SM-CA to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as a “representative of all eligible tenant buyers” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. IMPORTANT NOTICE: Starting March 1, 2026, Federal Law may prohibit ZBS Law from issuing a Trustee’s Deed Upon Sale in connection with this trustee’s sale until information about the winning bidder is reported to the U.S. Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network. See, 31 CFR § 1031.320 (https:// w w w. e c f r. g o v /c u r r e n t /
title-31/subtitle-B/chapter-X/ par t-1031/subpar t- C/ section-1031.320). If this trustee’s sale qualifies as a “reportable transfer” under 31 CFR § 1031.320(b), and you, as buyer, qualify as a “transferee entity” under 31 CFR § 1031.320(e)(1) or “transferee trust” under 31 CFR § 1031.320(e)(2), you will be obligated to provide information about the Beneficial Owner(s) of the transferee to ZBS Law or ZBS Law’s designated representative. If you qualify as an exempt entity or trust under 31 CFR § 1031.320(n) (10-(11), you may be required to provide evidence of the exemption supported by a declaration under penalty of perjury. If the Trustee’s Deed Upon Sale cannot be issued due to a qualified transferee’s failure or inability to provide the necessary reporting information, the qualified transferee will be responsible for all fees and costs to re-notice the trustee’s sale. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property,
you may call (866) 266-7512 or visit this internet website www. elitepostandpub.com, using the 24-72123. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (866) 266-7512, or visit this internet website www. elitepostandpub.com, using the 24-72123 to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult
either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.

Carlsbad ballplayer beats cancer, stays in game By Noah Perkins
Carlsbad resident Joe Tarka, 78, remembers April 17, 1960, like it was yesterday. The day the Cleveland Indians traded right fielder Rocky Colavito to Detroit for Harvey Kuenn, the 1959 American League batting champion. Colavito was coming off back-to-back 40-home-run seasons, and to the young Tarka, a native Ohioan, the trade was devastating. “I cried — literally,” Tarka told The Coast News. “I still remember the newspaper, the Cleveland Press, and they made a big splash about it. Rocky’s gone. Harvey Kuenn fizzled out in about two years, and Rocky went on to have a brilliant career.” More than six decades later, Tarka still has the same enthusiasm for baseball as he did the day Rocky went West. Tarka started playing around age 10 in Ohio, eventually joining a travel-
ing league and playing some American Legion and high school baseball. But he gave up the game as a teenager to work for his father, an electrical contractor. He missed baseball. So when Tarka moved to California in 2006, he found his way back to the diamond. At 58, he began playing adult hardball in the Men’s Senior Baseball League in North County. What started as a return to a childhood passion has become a 20-year second act in the sport. Tarka plays second base, the position he considers his strength. He’ll also play third base or the outfield. He practices three times a week and plays on weekends, with a season that typically runs from late February through September. Then come tournaments in places such as Phoenix and Fort Myers, Florida. At 78, Tarka is still playing against men con-

siderably younger than himself. That’s the part that would have been difficult for the 10-year-old boy in Ohio to imagine. It’s also why, when prostate cancer entered his life, Tarka wasn’t willing to simply step away from the game. In 2019, at age 70, he was diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer. Tarka had no symptoms, but his primary care physician, Dr. David Ko of Scripps Coastal Medical Center Encinitas, noticed his PSA level had risen and encouraged him to have it checked. An MRI didn’t find the cancer. Further testing, including a CT scan, eventually revealed three cancerous areas. Their Gleason scores were 7, 8 and 9, putting Tarka in a high-risk category. Tarka underwent surgery to remove his prostate and some lymph nodes. Then came the first comeback. He followed his doctors’ instructions, doing light exercise during his recovery. Once he was ready, he began rebuilding his baseball routine: working out, taking ground balls and going to batting practice. Eventually, he was back in games. But two years later, the cancer returned. His PSA was rising again, although scans couldn’t identify visible disease. Dr. Ramdev Konijeti, Tarka’s surgeon at Scripps

Cancer Center and medical director of the center’s genitourinary oncology program, said the pattern of the rise led doctors to suspect the cancer had returned in the pelvic area where Tarka’s prostate had been. Tarka underwent radiation therapy along with hormone therapy, which suppresses testosterone. The radiation itself wasn’t particularly difficult. “The actual procedure for radiation was like three minutes,” Tarka said. The hormone therapy was another story. He experienced hot flashes, fatigue and weight gain. At times, it made exercising difficult. But he kept moving. “I try to fight that,” Tarka said. “I continued exercising, even though sometimes it was in moderation.” He kept working out and playing baseball when-
ever he could. Konijeti said that commitment mattered. “I would be lying if I said that it’s entirely because of our abilities that he is able to do that,” Konijeti said. “I think on some level, it’s his own baseline functional status and his own degree of motivation that keeps him that active.” But Tarka did. And baseball gave him something else during his cancer battle: perspective. When he eventually told teammates he was going to be away because of cancer, he discovered he wasn’t nearly as alone as he thought. One player had been through it. Then another. And another. “I was amazed how many guys had it, survived it,” Tarka said. Many had kept their experiences to themselves.

Tarka understood why. “Cancer is a funny effect that people, they maybe want to treat you differently and all that because they think you’re real sick,” he said. He didn’t want that. There were moments in the dugout when he would look out at the field and think about the strange reality of his situation. “I’m playing baseball,” he remembered thinking. “I have cancer.” When the cancer returned, Tarka was initially reluctant to undergo another round of treatment. His wife and daughters pushed him to reconsider, and he sought a second opinion. The doctor offered him a different way of looking at what was ahead. “Joe,” Tarka recalled the doctor telling him, “you have an opportunity to live again. You’re getting a second chance.” Tarka knew what he wanted to do with it. He wanted to keep playing. Today, Tarka is cancer-free. He continues to be monitored because recurrence remains possible. But the treatments have not stopped him from doing what he loves. Konijeti said Tarka’s story illustrates an important part of prostate cancer care: treatment isn’t simply about eliminating the disease. Doctors also have to consider a patient’s age, health, goals and the life he wants to continue living. “You work with them to understand, OK, what are your goals?” Konijeti said. For Tarka, the answer was never particularly complicated. He wants to stay active. He wants to compete. And he wants to keep playing baseball. “Our objective always is not only to treat your cancer and keep you alive, but it’s to help you live,” Konijeti said. The boy who cried when Rocky went West is still on the field.

Still Google me?
F
By Rich Henrich
or most of my professional life, digital marketing came down to a simple instruction: Google me. Build the website, rank in search, get the click and hopefully win the customer. For more than two decades, that has been the basic architecture of online marketing. But what happens when the click starts to disappear? That is the shift businesses need to understand now. Consumers are increasingly asking AI where to eat, what to buy, who to hire and where to go. Google itself is answering more questions directly, while platforms like ChatGPT can recommend a business before the customer ever visits its website. The old objective was traffic. The emerging objective is being part of the answer. That means your business can no longer rely on what you say about yourself on your own website. Your expertise, reputation and story need to exist across the broader digital landscape through credible articles, reviews, Google profiles, social media, video, podcasts and other trusted websites. Marketing thinker Mark Schaefer has long argued that as the amount of content increases, trust and human connection become more valuable. Artificial intelligence only accelerates that reality. Machines can generate an almost unlimited amount of information, but they cannot simply manufacture genuine reputation. So perhaps the most important digital marketing question in 2026 is no longer, “How do I get more clicks?” It may be, “Why would the internet believe my business matters?” A website can tell the world you are great. A reputation requires other people and credible sources to reinforce it. The businesses that understand this will spend less time chasing every algorithm and more time building something far more durable: authority. The click may be changing, but trust remains the currency. Rook Digital is a trusted referral partner of The Coast News.

abor Day’s behind us, and retailers are promoting themselves with tie-ins to the fall holidays. Christmas, Thanksgiving, and Halloween are all coming up soon. Seemingly everyone, from Costco to Trader Joe’s, is hustling to capture your attention (and your dollars) ASAP. Strolling into Home Depot recently, I came across a display of plastic dead bodies at the front door. These skeletons were obviously meant as something humerus (pun intended), though I believe the marketing folks missed the mark.
Odd Files I Do Not Like It
It started with some posts and AI-made memes. Now authorities are warning of some strange social schemes. Newsweek reported on Sept. 10 that the Cat in the Hat, the character of Dr. Seuss fame, is at the center of a viral social media trend that has made its way around the globe. Images and videos -- sometimes AI-generated, sometimes of a real person in costume lurking outside of homes and schools at night -of the Cat in the Hat are accompanied by menacing text warning of where the “Cat” is headed next and listing specific people or schools as its next targets. Students in Kansas, Georgia, Alabama and Kentucky have been apprehended and face criminal charges for participating in the hoax, and school districts in Pennsylvania, North Dakota and Minnesota have put their communities on alert. In Canada, the online hoax turned into a real nightmare when a teenage girl in British Columbia was chased by someone wearing a Cat in the Hat costume. She arrived home safely, but authorities are still looking for the perpetrator. “People should understand that behavior intended as a prank can have serious consequences when it causes another person to reasonably fear for their safety,” said Corporal Devon Gerrits of West Kelowna RCMP.

Dumpster Diving
An alleged dumpster diver had to be rescued from a garbage truck on Sept. 2, the LA Times reported. A driver for Recology, a commercial waste collection company, picked up and emptied a dumpster, and then ran the trash compactor before hearing yelling from inside the truck and calling 911. When firefighters arrived, they couldn’t just reach in and pull the man out -- he might have had crush injuries -- or have the driver dump all the trash out, which could have released hazardous material, such as glass, batteries and even vermin. What followed
ask mr. marketing rob weinberg Given the state of today’s world, this horrific scene comes off as poor taste. I’m old enough to remember the 1975-79 systematic killing of 2 million Cambodian citizens by the Khmer Rouge. Leader Pol Pot’s wanton cruelty in the killing fields was in the was a two-hour rescue effort. Paramedics were able to get an IV in the man’s arm while firefighters carefully removed the trash with pike poles. The man was conscious when firefighters reached him, and he was taken to a local hospital. The extent of his injuries was undisclosed; one firefighter suffered a laceration injury during the rescue but is in stable condition. [LA Times, 9/3/26]
news daily. Did I mention these poseable LED skeletons were made in Cambodia? Granted, this display was probably authorized by someone who wasn’t alive in 1979. Still, I’m stumped as to why anyone finds a pile of faux dead bodies funny. Lest you think I have no sense of humor, I’ll also mention the skeleton “I Scream” vendor at Lowe’s that I thought was hilarious. Admittedly, the target market for Halloween decorations is younger than me. However, I can’t help but be concerned about the larger message this display sends.
After all, for decades I’ve heard concerns about senseless violence in cartoons and video games numbing people. And yes, those are platforms and exposure one must actively seek out. But as the largest US home improvement retailer, each Home Depot gets roughly 2000 visitors daily, and they have 2,359 stores. As a good corporate citizen, don’t they have a responsibility? If each store has such a display, that’s an awful lot of violence desensitization. And I find it hard to believe there are no other ways
to creatively present this merchandise. Now consider how much antisemitism is up in the US. Given that November 9 is the anniversary of Kristallnacht, will we next be seeing a gallows with half a dozen skeletons hanging, their arms tied behind their backs…all in the name of making a sale? History matters in your marketing, folks, and a little sensitivity and awareness can go a long way toward improving revenues without upsetting your customers. With that said, I wish you a week of profitable marketing.

Rubber Duckie
An unnamed Italian man made it all the way from Miami to Turin, Italy, with a dried crocodile head in his luggage, The Guardian reported on Sept. 8. The Turin unit of Italy’s financial police squad said in a statement that the man wrapped the head in brown packing paper in an evidently feeble attempt to keep it from the astute eyes of customs officers. The man was swiftly taken into custody upon discovery of the croc, and is accused of smuggling a specimen belonging to a protected species. If convicted, the man could have to pay up to $270,000 USD or face a prison term of up to one year. [The Guardian, 9/8/26]
Police in Chatham County, Georgia, are looking for an unusual suspect. Among his questionable behavior? “Becoming infatuated” with a rubber duck that he played with for 10 minutes while soaking in a hot tub -- uninvited -- at someone else’s home. According to WOTC, video footage from Sept. 1 shows an unidentified male trespassing on private property and going for a dip in the pool before availing himself of the hot tub sometime between 2 a.m. and 5 a.m. He also helped himself to over $1,000 worth of beach towels before riding away on his bicycle. “It’s obviously not the biggest crime we’ve dealt with this month, but it has a lot of ick-factor,” the local police department said in a social media post. “So, we’d like to find this guy so he doesn’t do this to someone else.” [WTOC, 9/9/26]

Encinitas’ Jett Maughan claims junior world title SDA senior wins gold, helps USA earn team silver By Staff
ENCINITAS — Jett Maughan, a 17-year-old senior at San Dieguito Academy, won the boys under-18 title at the 2026 ISA World Junior Surfing Championship in El Salvador, helping the United States earn silver in the team competition. Competing in his first world junior championship, Maughan held off two Australian surfers in the final to claim gold after delivering some of the event’s highest scores, according to USA Surfing. His run included a 9.00-point semifinal ride for a backhand air reverse. Maughan was one of nine surfers on the 12-member U.S. team making their world junior championship debuts and one of four surfers from Encinitas on Team USA. The victory gave him his first world junior title. Fellow Encinitas surfer Dane Libby, 18, com-

peted in the boys under-18 division, while Maddie Stanton, 18, and Victoria Duprat, 17, competed in the girls under-18 division. All four grew up honing their skills at Seaside Reef in Cardiff-by-the-Sea. The nine-day compe-
tition at La Bocana and El Sunzal drew 420 surfers from 56 national teams. Australia won the team title, followed by the United States, Brazil and Peru. Six American surfers finished in the top 10 of their respective divisions.
Maughan arrived with experience competing in Hawaii, Mexico, El Salvador, Costa Rica, Nicaragua and Australia. In an interview with The Coast News before the championship, he credited Encinitas’ competitive surfing community with pushing him to improve. “There’s always someone in the water that is better than you,” he said. “So you always have someone to compare yourself with.” Libby similarly point-
ed to the influence of local surfers Jake Marshall and Levi Slawson, the past two men’s U.S. Open champions. “Watching them grow up and always looking up to them and seeing them do well and also getting to know them has been a huge part of it,” Libby said before the event. “Just having a pretty close surf community in Encinitas.” Stanton and Duprat first met during family vacations in Nicaragua, where they discovered they both lived in Encinitas and shared a passion for surfing. Stanton said growing up alongside other local surfers and watching their careers progress had been meaningful.

“All the girls we used to look up to like Alyssa Spencer and Ella McCaffray are now competing in the big leagues,” Stanton said. Duprat said those hometown connections also helped prepare the surfers to compete as teammates. “I think having a community based around surfing and having everyone who surfs around us really taught us how to work as a group,” she said. Before competition began, team captains Stanton and Libby represented the United States in the ISA Sands of the World ceremony, bringing sand from Lower Trestles. The four Encinitas athletes were among five North County surfers on the U.S. roster. Carlsbad’s Bryce Seshun competed in the boys under-16 division. San Diego’s Zoë Panettiere, 15, added a silver medal in girls under-16, also in her World Junior Surfing Championship debut. The 2024 USA Surfing champion reached the final at La Bocana. U.S. head coach Ryan Simmons said preparation initially centered on selecting equipment suited to the waves at the two competition sites. Once the team arrived, the emphasis shifted to mutual support and helping athletes feel a sense of belonging. Duprat described that equipment preparation before the championship, saying she had called Simmons for advice on which boards to bring because of his familiarity with El Salvador’s waves. Libby credited Simmons with helping him understand how judges score, while Stanton pointed to competitive practice heats that helped the surfers refine their approaches. “The team surfed free and loose and reveled in the epic conditions of El Salvador,” Simmons said in a release. “We brought air game, rail game and intense heat savvy. I couldn’t be more proud of the effort from start to finish.” For Maughan, the championship could offer another opportunity: According to USA Surfing, he will be eligible to return next year to defend his boys under-18 title.

Woolley leads unbeaten Eagles’ dynamic offense By Noah Perkins
SOLANA BEACH — Is Santa Fe Christian senior Chase Woolley the best wide receiver in the county? His head coach and quarterback certainly think so. “Chase Woolley’s the best receiver in the county, and I know people would argue with that, but he played limited time last year,” SFC head coach Jon Wallace told The Coast News before the start of the season. “If you go watch the tape, he doesn’t lose a rep. I think he’s unbelievable.” “Chase is the best receiver in the county, and whatever college gets him hit the jackpot,” Eagles senior quarterback Dax Labrum told The Coast News following the Eagles’ most recent win. “It’s a blessing to have him on my team.” Woolley brought his county-leading 426 receiving yards into Thursday night’s showdown against Isidore Newman School in New Orleans, then tacked on 159 more yards on eight catches, including a touchdown. His longest reception covered 71 yards in a 41-7 victory that moved the reigning CIF Division II San Diego Section champion to 4-0, with the Eagles outscoring opponents 19127. “I’m beyond impressed with our team,” Woolley said. “If you look at our starting lineup on offense and defense, it’s a lot of seniors who have been in school together since sixth grade, and I think we are one of, if not the most, tight-knit teams in the county. We really just play for each other.” Labrum threw five touchdown passes in the victory, finding four different receivers for scores. Woolley caught one touchdown, while Cruz Campbell had three catches for 58 yards and two touchdowns, Jake Squires added
three catches for 54 yards and two touchdowns, and Baylen Brees had four catches for 27 yards and a touchdown. “Looking forward to keeping our foot on the gas,” Labrum said. “We don’t play down to the level of who we are playing. We always play our brand of ball no matter who it’s against.” Brees also threw a touchdown pass to Squires on a trick play, a fitting moment with his father, Drew, serving as SFC’s passing game coordinator on the sideline. Dad Drew Brees, of course, threw 308 touchdown passes at home in New Orleans during his 15 seasons as the Saints’ quarterback. “It was unreal,” Brees said postgame to VSN. “Just looking up at the sky, knowing I grew up here — this is my home. I feel like it’s amazing coming back here. Watching my dad here and now he gets to coach me, I feel like it’s the greatest gift I could ever have.” Next up for the Eagles is a Sept. 18 road game at Army-Navy. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m.

Fallbrook defeats Coastal Academy 27-14
Jayden Brown and Junior Dillon scored touchdowns to help Fallbrook defeat Coastal Academy 2714 on Sept. 11 at Fallbrook High School’s Warriors Stadium. The Warriors improved to 3-1, while the Stingrays fell to 1-2. Coastal Academy quarterback Cody Terpstra opened the scoring with a 4-yard quarterback sneak. The extra point was blocked, leaving the Stingrays ahead 6-0. Terpstra finished with 76 yards rushing and 93 yards passing. Fallbrook took a 7-6 lead on quarterback Easton Lucy’s 1-yard touchdown run and the ensuing extra point. Lucy finished with 56 yards passing and 23 yards rushing in his debut for the Warriors. The Stingrays regained the lead at 14-7 on Kaleb Woytek’s 7-yard touchdown run. Brown scored on a 2-yard run, and Dillon, who rushed for 79 yards, scored Fallbrook’s final touchdown. “Every time we play, our defense has given up a touchdown,” Fallbrook head coach John Hollcroft said. “It’s hard, but we are a second-half team and showed that tonight. We’re playing better teams but haven’t played our type of football.” Hollcroft praised Lucy’s running ability and said the Warriors need to clean up their offense as the season progresses. Fallbrook will host Mount Carmel in its next game. Coastal Academy will host Santa Fe Christian on Sept. 25 at 7 p.m. — David A. Willauer

Encinitas weighs action over lot RVs, containers on property draw citations, concern By Cameron Adams & Christopher Bacon
ENCINITAS — The city of Encinitas is considering legal action against the owner of a parcel where people appear to be living amid at least two RVs, a water tank, shipping containers, heavy machinery and other equipment. County records show Matthew H. Wolff owns the property adjacent to Interstate 5 at the southern end of Playa Riviera Drive. The parcel is zoned Rural Residential 2, allowing for agricultural uses and low-density, single-family detached housing, with a maximum of one primary dwelling per lot under the municipal code. City Attorney Ajit Thind addressed the matter at an August City Council meeting after residents raised concerns about the property’s use for storage. “We are aware of this,” Thind said. “Code enforcement has been out there recently. They’ve issued citations recently, and the matter has been referred to my office as well. So action is imminent.” A city spokesperson declined to comment further, citing legal reasons, when The Coast News asked for

an update on Sept. 10. The controversy was first reported by NBC 7 San Diego. The Coast News could not locate Wolff for comment, whose mailing address is a post office in Point Loma. On Sept. 14, the parcel contained at least two shipping containers, a fifthwheel trailer, an excavator, what appeared to be a motorhome behind a wooden fence and several automobiles. A water tank was also on the property. Some neighbors told

Neighboring resident Conny Carson said the owner had presented himself as a contractor and said he did not need permits for the work he was doing. “Right now he looks like he just brought all his friends in to make a little camp land,” Carson said. “He’s not bothering anybody, you know. It’s his land.”

Deputies seek tips in Encinitas hit-and-run
The San Diego County Sheriff’s Office is seeking help identifying a driver who seriously injured a pedestrian in an Aug. 16 hitand-run in Village Park. Investigators believe a silver 2012-2014 Toyota Prius V struck Mike Eisenberg, 49, in the 400 block of Glen Arbor Drive. Deputies responded shortly after 10:15 p.m., and Eisenberg was taken to a hospital with major injuries. Authorities recovered a part believed to be a passenger-side headlight washer. The vehicle may be missing that part and have additional front-end damage. Eisenberg said he was walking against traffic in a parking lane near Leafwood Place when a vehicle veered toward the road’s edge and struck his lower right side, knocking him onto the pavement. Witness Megan Dietz, who was walking her dog nearby, called 911 after hearing Eisenberg call for help. An MRI report provided to The Coast News showed Eisenberg suffered a complete tear of his right knee’s anterior cruciate ligament, a small fracture near the knee and a likely strain or minor partial tear of another ligament. “My recovery is slow, but I am making progress,” Eisenberg said. “As someone who cherishes the ability to jog, exercise and take walks, it’s really hard to accept being out of commission for so long.” — Jordan P. Ingram
DEL MAR — City officials, including Mayor Tracy Martinez, Deputy Mayor John Spelich and Planning Commissioner Mark Rittenbaum, attended the 22nd District Agricultural Association’s monthly board meeting Tuesday morning and urged the board to reconsider its recent cancellation of an agreement to explore building affordable housing on fairgrounds property. At its August meeting, the fair board voted to end an exclusive negotiating pact with the city about building up to 61 below-market-rate units. The agreement took effect in April 2024 after the City Council ratified it. The 22nd DAA board had endorsed it a month earlier. Martinez largely reiterated the points she had made in an Aug. 21 letter to the fair board: She believed the 22nd DAA’s vote was based on bad information and faulty premises regarding the project’s feasibility. While Martinez and Spelich spoke in diplomatic but forceful terms, Rittenbaum — who said he was speaking as a private individual despite being a commission member — called the decision shameful. Rittenbaum added that the vote displayed “a complete lack of social and moral responsibility.” Another member of the public participated remotely and also urged the fair board to revisit the issue. Because the comments were made during open communication and the issue was not on the agenda, the fair board could not discuss it or take action. During the meeting, the board also heard from Matt Clay, general manager of the Del Mar Golf Center, which leases land on the fairgrounds for its
ADULT DENTISTRY CorrectChoice Dental Group
driving range, miniature golf courses and golf shop. Clay reported that the center continues to invest in the facility. “We’re an entertainment property, and we need to continue to raise our amenities.” He said the 2017 installation of a TopTracer video golf ball tracking system has allowed the center to attract nongolfers. A recent upgrade placed the system in a permanent structure, replacing the earlier temporary shelters. One recent operational change was the departure of The Golf Mart, which closed the shop it had subleased from the center for 30 years just over a year ago and moved operations a few miles away to a new retail location. Clay said replacing The Golf Mart with a similar store would not have made sense, so a smaller boutique shop now occupies part of that space. While summer traffic was down, which Clay attributed to the recent heat wave, he said the center still paid $900,000 in revenue sharing to the 22nd DAA. He anticipates that figure may reach $1 million this year. During open communication, Carla Hayes, co-founder of the Friends of Del Mar Horse Park, gave an informal update on the Horse Park. She said a screwworm outbreak in Mexico is waning and a ban on bringing cattle and horses into the United States has been partially lifted. She said this should lead to increased participation in barrel racing and dressage competitions at the Horse Park over the next year. “We lost one-third of our jumpers the last two years” due to the ban on border crossings by horses, she told the board.

Napa Valley greats headline local wine dinners taste of wine & food
W
frank mangio & rico cassoni
est End Bar & Kitchen recently welcomed 80 guests for a sold-out, fivecourse dinner featuring Groth Vineyards & Winery. Among them were 24 members of the American Institute of Wine and Food’s San Diego chapter, according to Susan Buxbaum, the chapter’s treasurer and a board member. Groth’s West region sales manager, Eric Wooliever, shared the winery’s history and tasting notes, while West End executive chef Carlos Ramirez created the pairings. Groth’s story began in 1981 when Dennis and Judy Groth purchased a neglected 121-acre vineyard along Oakville Cross Road. Before entering the wine business, Dennis worked for Arthur Young, handling its Atari account. He later joined the video game company, rising to executive vice president and chief financial officer after its sale to Warner Communications. Business trips to Paris deepened his appreciation for wine and inspired his vision of owning a winery. Real estate partners Ren Harris and Jean Phillips introduced the Groths to the property. Harris later established Paradigm Winery, while Phillips founded cult winery Screaming Eagle. Groth’s first crush followed in 1982. Its reputation soared when the 1985 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon became the first American wine to earn 100 points from critic Robert Parker. Today, their daughter Suzanne Groth leads the family winery as president and CEO. The dinner opened with the 2025 Sauvignon Blanc, blended with 12% semillon and fermented in neutral oak barrels. Its crisp character and smooth finish complemented a winter citrus and goat cheese salad. The 2023 Estate Chardonnay from Groth’s cooler Hillview Estate in Oak Knoll accompanied a house-made Dungeness crab cake with citrus aioli and cilantro. Originally purchased for merlot, the fog-influenced estate proved equally suited to chardonnay. The 2022 Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon accompanied a slow-braised heritage beef short rib over black truffle risotto with Asian demi-glace and fresh horseradish. Aged 19 months in 50% new French oak and blended with 13% merlot, it offered blackber-

Orin Swift
Vittorio’s Italian Trattoria in Carmel Valley’s Highland Village gave
Frank and me an opportunity to reconnect with the creatively themed wines of Orin Swift Cellars. Breakthru Beverage Group’s Scott Blackburn introduced E. & J. Gallo’s Tyler Williams, who shared the winery’s history and tasting notes. Executive chef Angel Gijon created dishes perfect for pairing. Dave Phinney founded Orin Swift in 1998 and created The Prisoner in 2000. The unconventional zinfandel-led blend became a national phenomenon. Phinney later sold it to Huneeus Vintners under an agreement prohibiting him from making zinfandel for eight years. In 2016, Huneeus sold The Prisoner Wine Company to Constellation Brands for $285 million. Later that year, Phinney sold Orin Swift to E. & J. Gallo. He remains Orin Swift’s winemaker and creative director. Guests were welcomed with the 2025 Blank Stare Sauvignon Blanc, offering Asian pear and citrus notes with added depth from French oak and acacia vessels rather than stainless steel. Blank Stare represented Phinney’s first exploration of white wine after his zinfandel noncompete took effect. The 2024 Mannequin
Chardonnay accompanied a grilled crab cake with cauliflower puree and fennel-dill butter sauce. Nine months in French oak, 27% new, imparted flavors of peach and apple, with hints of lemon pith. Conchiglie al forno (baked shells) filled with ricotta and spinach accompanied Bloodlines Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine’s name was inspired by Phinney’s discovery of generations of winemaking in his family. Its intersecting red rings symbolize Orin, his father’s middle name, and Swift, his mother’s maiden name. The strongest pairing combined grilled bistro beef tenderloin, potato gratin and garlic broccolini with the 2024 8 Years in the Desert. Named for Phinney’s noncompete, the zinfandel, petite sirah and syrah blend offered blackberry, plum and peppercorn notes with soft tannins. Scott and Tyler capped the evening with a bonus pour of 2023 Papillon, one of Orin Swift’s premier wines. The cabernet sauvignon-led Bordeaux blend accompanied chef Angel Gijon’s refreshing mango sherbet. Get more information at orinswift.com. — Column by Rico Cassoni

DEL MAR — Work to widen El Camino Real south of Via de la Valle near the Del Mar Polo Fields and replace the bridge over the San Dieguito River is set to begin in December now that the city of San Diego has awarded a construction contract. The project was approved by the California Coastal Commission more than two years ago. The Los Angeles office of Skanska, a Sweden-based global construction company, announced earlier this month that it won the contract for the $57 million project. In addition to replacing the 84-year-old bridge, the project will widen El Camino Real from two lanes to four for a half-mile south of the intersection with Via de la Valle, ending where the road currently widens to four lanes just south of the existing bridge. Skanska also announced that an equestrian path will be built underneath the new bridge, connecting with the longplanned Coast to Crest Trail. Other improvements include separated bike lanes, new sidewalks, improved traffic signals and riverbank stabilization to improve flood prevention. Work is set to begin in December, with completion planned for August 2030.

Larger cities refine homelessness strategies By Samantha Nelson
REGION — Two of North County’s biggest cities, which also have the region’s largest homeless populations, continue to fine-tune and fund new efforts to move more people off the streets and into permanent housing. Staff members from Escondido and Oceanside presented updates on their cities’ efforts to address homelessness to their respective city councils on Sept. 2.
Escondido
In Escondido, Police Chief Ken Plunkett described positive trends and some improvement, though homelessness remains a challenge. According to the 2026 Point-in-Time Count, Escondido’s unsheltered homeless population dropped from 307 in 2025 to 271 this year, an 11.7% decrease. Volunteers use the count to estimate the number of people experiencing homelessness in each city during the early morning hours at the beginning of each year. The North Inland region’s count declined by 10% overall.
Plunkett, who was sworn in last year, formed the Escondido Police Department’s Community Enhancement Bureau, which consolidates teams focused on homelessness, narcotics, gang violence, school safety and traffic under unified leadership. The bureau includes the Community Oriented Policing and Problem Solving unit, known as COPPS, with three sector officers, four crime suppression team officers and a Psychiatric Emergency Response Team with one officer and one clinician. Plunkett said the bureau conducted its first crime suppression detail in June, targeting criminal activity among the homeless population. During the operation, police made 73 contacts with homeless individuals, issued 18 citations, made 16 arrests, conducted 22 field interviews and re-
moved several encampments and debris. Despite the positive trends, Plunkett cautioned that the city still faces challenges, including the lack of a sobering facility, diminished homeless outreach services and evolving legal challenges that could make it difficult to address homelessness. As part of the staff presentation, the Escondido City Council approved issuing a request for proposals to open a temporary sobering facility and provide homeless outreach services. “Given the current state of homelessness, and effort to enhance community safety, I believe the addition of sobering services will greatly enhance the city's ability to meet stated priorities,” Plunkett said. In 2025 alone, EsconTURN TO HOMELESS ON 30

work that is already underway. City staff members are also checking portable pumps, storm drain pumps and flapper valves. In addition, the city has identified 30 floodprone locations where it will deploy sandbags ahead of large storms. Residents can get up to 10 self-fill sandbags from the city. In the event of a major storm, city staff will deploy street-end barricades, seawall barriers and sand push-ups. Both city and county lifeguard teams will add staff ahead of storms. Roads with a history of flooding will be closed, with warning signs posted in advance. Residents were encouraged to: Trim trees, secure loose outdoor furniture, clean gutters and downspouts and check roof and window seals.
SUSPECT
His most recent diversion review hearing before the fire was March 13, about two weeks before the Austins were killed. A former roommate also sought restraining orders against Alvarado on two occasions. In court documents, she alleged that he threatened and intimidated her after moving in with her in 2024. She also alleged that he punched her friend in the face and struck her with a door while trying to push into the house. A deputy reported being unable to serve Alvarado with a temporary restraining order. The Austins had several children and grandchildren. Family members described them as “loving, compassionate, and endlessly generous.”
DEL MAR — The Del Mar City Council reviewed the city’s storm preparations with staff Tuesday evening as the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration predicts strong El Niño conditions this fall and winter. Assistant City Manager Clem Brown briefed council members on the status of those preparations. He explained that NOAA and the National Weather Service don’t yet have enough information to make specific predictions, but that will change in the coming weeks. “Public works has a longstanding storm checklist that gets activated ahead of every major rain event,” Brown said. The checklist includes clearing storm drains, inlets and channels citywide,

the charges. If he is still deemed incompetent after two years, he would be returned to the local court to determine the next steps. At the April arraignment, the judge also terminated mental health diversion in two prior criminal cases against Alvarado that were ongoing at the time of the fire. According to court records cited in The Coast News’ previous reporting, Alvarado was charged in October 2024 with exhibiting a deadly weapon and in January 2025 with harassment. He was referred to mental health diversion in both cases, allowing him to receive treatment with the possibility of having the charges cleared.

Carlsbad festival one in a melon jano’s
garden
T
jano nightingale
he Carlsbad Village Yoga studio did it again! Now in its 15th year, the annual Carlsbad Watermelon Festival took place on Sunday, Sept. 13, to the delight of over 50 yoga teachers and students, along with guests. For many years, Carlsbad Village Yoga director Candy Cahill and her talented teaching staff have planned and carried off the festival together with the help of many friends. But last year, Candy got married! So this September, she and her new husband, Derek, coordinated many of the activities with the core staff. Candy and Derek Cahill have combined their creative efforts to form My Farm Foundation, which is a community-focused nonprofit organization that engages the public through school gardens, community events and food-sharing festivals. Derek explained, “Our goal is to educate the public about the importance of creating accessibility to healthy food to all North County residents.” This year, the festival
focused on food-related themes, with watermelon as the star, prepared a dozen ways. The Master Gardener demonstration table provided seed-starting supplies and tips on growing vegetables from seed, as well as starting a backyard or balcony vegetable garden. Each year, Carlsbad Village Yoga staff offer activities for the entire family, and this year, Dianna Stein created an arts activity table with a watermelon theme. Beth Van Derwerken stumped all the spelling bee contestants with the final standoff over the spelling of the word “whippoorwill.” No one seemed to know what a whippoorwill was until the final contestant came through. I guess a bunch of city slickers had never heard that distinctive nighttime call of the Midwestern male bird singing his hours-long mating call, “whip-poor-will, whippoor-will!” Candy came through making her favorite watermelon cotton candy for kids and adults and mixed up a slew of nonalcoholic watermelon cocktail spritzers, and Pizza Port provided the beer. She remarked, “We are just so happy that everyone takes part in the Watermelon Festival. It’s our gift to the community of yoga lovers and their friends and family. Fifteen years and going strong!”
From “Cold Canning Cookbook,” by Bruce Weinstein and Mark Scarbrough. Ingredients 1 pound watermelon rind (peel off the green outer layer and remove the red flesh), cut into 1½-inch cubes to total 4 cups ¼ cup kosher salt 2 cups granulated white sugar 1 cup apple cider vinegar 1 tablespoon minced, peeled fresh ginger
to remove water. Pour the cubes into a large saucepan and add enough water to cover them by 2 inches. Set pan over medium-high heat and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low and simmer slowly for 10 minutes. Drain the cubes again in the same colander and rinse to stop cooking. Stir the sugar, vinegar and ginger in the same saucepan set over medium-high heat until sugar dissolves. Bring to a full boil, stirring occasionally. Add the rind cubes and bring back to a boil, stirring often. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until tender, about 12 minutes. Turn off the heat and remove the pan from the burner. Set aside at room temperature until cool to the touch. Divide the rind and syrup between four-pint Mason jars, leaving headspace. Cover and seal. Refrigerate at least two days before serving. To contact Carlsbad Village Yoga studio, call 760-529-2767 or visit the studio at 390 Oake Ave., Carlsbad.
Directions Toss the cubed rind and salt in a large bowl until all the bits are coated. Drain the cubes in a colander set in the sink. Rinse repeatedly in cool water to remove some of the salt. Continue shaking

Sascha and her SAS band filled the afternoon with old favorites and newly composed tunes. As always, the food table theme was watermelon, and true to form, a vast array of homemade specialties filled the serving table. Watermelon salad, watermelon spritzers and the surprise of them all — an old-fashioned watermelon rind relish. If you would like to try your hand at this Southern specialty for your next barbecue, here is the recipe.

Rough waves hit dog surfing contest By Staff
DEL MAR — Surfing dogs drew hundreds of spectators to Del Mar Dog Beach on Sept. 13 for the Helen Woodward Animal Center’s 21st annual Surf Dog Surf-A-Thon, but rough conditions forced judges to cancel the final round. Nearly 100 dogs participated, with some wearing goggles and flotation vests as their owners helped guide their boards into the waves. The rising tide and increasingly rough surf prompted judges to call off the Best-in-Surf final after determining conditions were unsafe for the dogs, according to The California Post. The event, billed as the nation’s longest-running canine surf competition, raised funds for the Rancho Santa Fe-based nonprofit
organization, which operates an adoption center, offers therapeutic programs and advocates for animal welfare. The competition featured 10-minute heats, with dogs evaluated on the length of their rides, confidence and style by a panel of surfing professionals and aficionados. Dogs competed in weight classes, with firstplace finishers scheduled to advance to the Best-in-Surf final. A freestyle contest also let multiple dogs share a board, and owners rode alongside their pets. Organizers had tightened safety procedures ahead of this year’s competition, according to the Post, citing the animal center. Water access was limited to three-person teams: a handler, a center flagger and a retriever. Competing dogs also wore flotation vests.

dido received 693 encampment-related service requests, removed 3,127 cubic yards of debris, incurred $293,000 in abatement costs and stored property for 84 individuals. According to acting Escondido Fire Chief Tyler Battson, about 1,560 of the 19,200 calls for service the city received last year involved homelessness. The city also expects to direct more money toward addressing homelessness over the next few years as it continues to collect Measure I sales tax revenue. Staff originally anticipated a gap in services after Interfaith Community Services said it would not have funding to conduct its own homeless outreach in the city. However, Plunkett received word from Interfaith on the day of the council meeting that the organization had secured funding. He indicated city staff would meet with Interfaith. Staff also anticipates returning to City Council at the end of this month to consider a modification to Interfaith’s conditional use permit for the Turk Center at 555 N. Center City Parkway. The proposed change would allow 18 currently vacant beds to be used for bridge housing. Deputy Mayor Joe Garcia said that as improvements continue, the city’s next step is temporary housing. “That discussion needs to happen,” Garcia said.

Oceanside
Unlike Escondido, Oceanside saw a 13.8% increase in its unsheltered homeless population this year, with 362 individuals counted in January compared with 318 in 2025, according to the annual Pointin-Time Count. Oceanside is North County’s most populous city, followed by Escondido. Despite the apparent increase in its homeless population, Oceanside continues to refine its approach to homelessness and hopes recent changes will make a difference. Earlier this year, the city adopted its new Homeless Evaluation Assistance and Resource Team program, known as HEART. The program created an in-house homeless out-
reach coordinator position to oversee a team of social workers contracted through Interfaith to conduct outreach throughout the city. Previously, the Oceanside Police Department conducted homeless outreach through its Homeless Outreach Team, known as HOT, which used police officers and two contracted social workers to connect people experiencing homelessness with services and resources. The city replaced HOT with HEART earlier this year. The city also increased shelter beds at the Oceanside Navigation Center from 50 to 75 over the summer. Additionally, the city’s safe parking program is doubling its capacity from 25 to 50 vehicles. The nonprofit Dreams for Change operates the program at the North County LGBTQ Re-
source Center daily from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. Measure X, the city’s half-cent sales tax, has provided substantial support for efforts to address homelessness over the past several years. Nearly 14% of its annual budget goes to homeless services. The city manager’s office has also created a byname list to track individuals and their cases. According to Homeless Services Manager Tameka Tates, the city has 526 unduplicated individuals on the list, of whom 324 have been served through outreach, 190 at the navigation center and 130 in the safe parking program. Of those people, 159 were served by more than one city program, and nine used all three services. To help prevent homelessness, the city also has a $29.65 million annual budget for its 1,380 housing choice vouchers, which provide housing for people at risk. Of voucher recipients, 44% are seniors older than 62, and 48% live with a disability. Oceanside staff is also eager to complete four developments that will add 545 affordable housing units to the city’s inventory. Of those units, 56 are for seniors, 309 for families, 179 for singles and couples, and 26 for homeless veterans. The city invested at least $10.25 million in the units, according to staff. The city’s “flagship” project to address homelessness, according to Homeless Program Manager Salvador Roman, is cleaning up homeless encampments along the state Route 78 corridor. In 2024, the state awarded Oceanside and Carlsbad $11.4 million through the California Interagency Council on Homelessness’ Encampment Resolution Fund to address encampments along a 3.6mile stretch beginning near the Buena Vista Lagoon and extending along the cities’ border. The effort has permanently housed 80 people so far, with a goal of housing 197 people by next June. “Without the leadership of our mayor and our council, participation by a number of different resources… we could not be accomplishing what we are able to do,” said Housing and Neighborhood Services Director Leilani Hines.

acquired,” Ely said. “That would be the best outcome for everyone.” Rosmarino declined to disclose Concordia’s asking price for the property. However, the property, if Concordia were to develop it, was valued at over $500 million, according to a 2015 letter Concordia’s lawyer sent to David Gibson, executive officer of the California Regional Water Quality Control Board, asking the agency to not proceed with sediment regulations. Harvest Hills isn’t the only property in San Diego County that has the potential to become the first land return for the San Pasqual tribe. On Aug. 30, a bill authored by Assemblymember David Alvarez (D-San Diego) would return ancestral lands located at the San Pasqual Battlefield State Park to the San Pasqual tribe. The San Pasqual Land Repatriation Act, or Assembly Bill 2770, unanimously cleared the second chamber of the California Legislature and now awaits the governor’s signature. The Escondido City Council also voiced its support for the legislation returning the cityand state-owned parklands to the San Pasqual Band. Concordia’s project application to develop the property is currently considered inactive, according to Assistant Director of Development Services Veronica Morones, who oversaw the project as a city planner at the time. The city has not received communication from Concordia on the proposal in roughly three
years and, if Concordia were to continue with the development project, a new draft environmental impact would need to be conducted, Morones said. Concordia Homes did not respond to multiple requests for comment by email, phone and text from The Coast News about the purchase agreement or the property. The property is home to several native wildlife

The area is home to southern California mountain lions and the California gnatcatcher, both of which were listed as a “threatened” species under the state’s Endangered Species Act in February. If the land is successfully purchased and conveyed to the San Pasqual tribe, Cope said he also hopes the property can be left untouched and eventually be used to share the tribe’s history for education purposes. “We want to keep it as sacred as possible and make sure it’s not disturbed,” Cope said.

ers opposed issuing the permit, often tearfully describing what they viewed as Villanueva’s insufficient efforts to reunite Angel Paws customers with their pets’ remains after Settle was evicted. One resident said Villanueva rejected an offer from distraught pet owners to help identify remains so their owners could be notified. Another, who said he was a retired Marine, said he felt Villanueva had failed to meet his obligations as landlord and angrily told the commission he did not feel Villanueva should be allowed to run a pet crematorium. Commissioner Kevin Norris asked city planning staff whether a conditional use permit is tied to the business or the land parcel and was told it is tied to the land. Commissioner Christopher Carroll asked whether a one-year compliance review included in Villanueva’s proposed permit was standard. Staff said it was not standard and was a precautionary measure in light of what occurred with Angel Paws. Typically, conditional use permits are issued for 10 years with no compliance checkpoints. Asked about the accusation that he refused volunteer assistance from former Angel Paws customers, Villanueva acknowledged

that he had but said the biohazard posed by more than 100 pets’ decomposing remains prevented him from accepting those offers. “There are some good safeguards in place,” Norris said of the proposed permit, which also includes a five-year administrative review. Commissioner Mike Barnett pointed out to the audience, “Who runs a business is beyond the scope of this body.” The commission approved the permit unanimously.
Studio extension
In other action Wednesday evening, the commission considered a proposed conditional use permit extension for the existing sports training video studio in the former recycling plant off San Eli-
jo Road. Originally pitched two decades ago as a cheaper filming location for Hollywood productions, the site has morphed into a facility where athletes can have performance videos made. The permit extension requires the operator to install a long-promised traffic signal at its driveway at 1601 San Elijo Road. In addition, after five years, the operator can request an administrative review for another five-year extension, for a total of 10 years. One neighbor of the facility spoke. While supportive of the application, she asked the commission to consider placing additional road improvement obligations on the facility operator. The permit extension was unanimously approved.
students each year, and they want you to like them. Your teacher is there to answer all of your questions, help curious minds grow and make learning feel like an adventure. It is a job worth roaring about! Teachers love hearing from their students. Draw a picture of your favorite
animal and add the words, “I am excited to learn with you!” Your teacher will feel special and give you a big smile. Pictures from students are like treasures of beautiful malachite butterflies in the rainforest. I hope that you have a magical year. Rexy

ACE Tutoring turns stress into success
T
he backpack hits the floor. A snack disappears. Then comes the question that can change the mood of an entire evening: “What do you have for homework?” For some families, that’s when the negotiations begin. A math assignment becomes a standoff. An essay remains a blank page. A student who seemed upbeat an hour ago suddenly insists, “I’m just bad at this.” For parents, the hardest part may be watching frustration turn into a belief. Helping students change that belief is central to ACE Tutoring, a family-owned business providing personalized tutoring in North County since 2004. Now in its 22nd year, ACE was voted the 2026 Gold Winner for Best Tutoring/Education Services in The Coast News’ Best of North County awards. The recognition celebrates a local resource built around a simple idea: With the right support, students CELEBRATING SUCCESS — ACE Tutoring’s owners celebrate 22 can develop the skills and years of helping North County students build academic skills confidence to move forward. and confidence, along with a 2026 Best of North County Gold
A real person, a fresh approach

face to face with experienced tutors who get to know how they learn, where they struggle and what helps a concept click. Finishing tonight’s homework matters. Under-
standing enough to tackle tomorrow’s assignment matters, too. That means looking beneath the immediate problem. A student struggling with algebra may need to
revisit foundational math skills. Someone overwhelmed by assignments may need a workable plan for organizing them. Support begins with understanding what’s getting in the way. The goal is greater independence — and more moments when “I can’t” becomes “Let me try.”
Help for the next hurdle
Academic challenges change as students grow. ACE supports students from 2nd through 12th grade, adapting instruction to their needs. For younger learners, reading, writing and math tutoring helps strengthen the building blocks that later coursework depends on. Addressing gaps can give students firmer footing before the material becomes more demanding. Middle and high school students can receive help with challenging coursework, including honors and Advanced Placement classes. Math and science bridge courses offer another way to prepare before stepping into a demanding subject. For students approaching college entrance exams, SAT and ACT preparation, along with PSAT support, combines academic review with test-taking strategies
and confidence building. And sometimes, the biggest breakthrough starts with a calendar. Study and organizational skills help students manage assignments, use their time effectively and take more ownership of schoolwork.
Success beyond the report card
ACE families have shared stories of students who struggled with advanced math and science, then went on to strong academic records and admission to universities including UCs and Ivy League universities. Those milestones are worth celebrating. So are the everyday victories: starting an assignment without a battle, asking a question without embarrassment or approaching a difficult subject with less dread. For more than two decades, ACE has worked with local students, parents, schools and community organizations. Its approach recognizes that academic progress involves more than grades. Confidence, consistency and effective habits matter, too.
wait for a disappointing report card to explore support. ACE offers comprehensive academic skills assessments to identify strengths, pinpoint areas for improvement and shape a focused plan. That first step can help families understand what their student needs, whether the goal is catching up, preparing for tougher coursework or making homework feel manageable again. The next chapter doesn’t have to begin with another nightly standoff. Give your student a stronger start before the next report card. Call ACE Tutoring in San Marcos at 760-599-8873 or visit them online at acetutoring.com to schedule an academic skills assessment and take the first step toward calmer homework nights and more confident learning.
