Esmeralda has eyes on Cloverdale resort site

By Christian Kallen

Edge Esmeralda will return to Healdsburg for the month of June, or most of it. The four-

week live-and-work program, described by its organizers as “our flagship popup village,” will take place from May 30–June 27. The program is targeted to those who “are optimistic about the future and are actively working towards a society rooted in human flourishing.”

The Esmeralda group is behind the global Edge pop-up

events, from Austin to Thailand, South Africa to Patagonia, and considers Healdsburg a cornerstone of those conventions.

Unlike the earlier visits to town, this year’s program is also specifically taking a long look at a 267acre parcel south of Cloverdale as a “potential living community of like-minded souls working to improve the world,” or at least

● Winter Jazz Festival brings America’s music home to Healdsburg

Staff Report

Musicians love coming to Healdsburg in June, when the nights are warm and the days are long. The wine is good, the food is good, the jazz-literate audience is attentive and 10 days of music is just about right.

For the past year, Devon Zuegel of Esmeralda Land Company has engaged in talks to purchase nearly 270 acres of land at the south end of sleepy Cloverdale, and to develop it into a new town, or neighborhood, to be called Esmeralda.

What about winter? That’s the question the Healdsburg Jazz executive director, Gayle Okumura Sullivan, asked the Healdsburg Jazz board two years ago. The board responded with a tentative “Yes,” and last January found Jason Moran, Edward Simon, Paula West, Sasha Berliner and others sharing their talent with local audiences.

Former apprentice steps into the frame

● Christina Molina takes over 46-year-old framing shop

By Lily Grace Brauninger

From 28 years as an employee to becoming a first-time business owner, Framing Arts of Healdsburg’s Christina Molina is proud to represent Healdsburg’s longest standing frame shop. Molina, a Healdsburg native, began working at Framing Arts at the age of 17, while still an HHS student. She began as a part-time employee and originally took the job due to her interest in art; however, over time as she was mentored by the previous owners in all aspects of framing, she fell in love with the process.

Framing Arts of Healdsburg is a custom frame shop offering unique sizes, materials and glass—although that is not all it offers. Molina gladly helps her clients with the smaller things, such as adding a wire to someone’s frame or replacing broken glass. These extra touches speak to Framing Arts of Healdsburg’s desire to serve clients with expertise and care, and

have contributed to the shop lasting over 45 years since opening in 1979.

During Molina’s first few years at Framing Arts, Nancy Hains, a previous owner, taught her everything there was to know about framing, and Molina dreamed of someday owning the business. But when the day arrived for the business to be sold, Molina—still adjusting to adulthood and navigating her personal life—decided to decline the offer of ownership, instead helping teach the new owners all she knew about framing.

A couple of years ago the most recent owners informed Molina that they wanted her to take over the business, and Molina officially became owner in January 2025.

During her time as a framer, Molina learned many skills that helped her understand the trade; however, owning a business came with new responsibilities. Understanding the intricacies of running a business has been a challenging experience for Molina but her many years at the

Work on the Presbyterian Church

Now Under Way

The laying of the corner-stone of the Presbyterian Church on Friday afternoon took place with great eclat. The weather was fine and the attendance large. There were representatives from every denomination and the addresses were excellent.

The pastor, Rev. J. C. Burgess, presided and gave out a hymn which was sung by the congregation. The pastor then in a few well-chosen words stated the purpose of the meeting and the symbolic meaning of the cornerstone. The pastor then brought forward an iron box containing the following documents: The first record of the First Presbyterian Church of Healdsburg, dated October 10th, 1858, the names of the organizers,

bath-school room and a spacious kitchen with modern conveniences.

Trowbridge case supported by

Attorney General

W.C. “Bob” Trowbridge says “it certainly doesn’t hurt my case," that the State Attorney General has joined him in the state appeals court to argue that the Russian River should be considered navigable. Deputy Attorney General John Briscoe presented arguments last Thursday before the San Francisco appeals court, asking that it reverse a 1974 Superior Court decision that declared an 11-mile stretch of the Russian River is unnavigable. The appeals court listened to his arguments that the decision endangers public access and rights

to the stretch of river between the Alexander Valley Bridge and Del Rio Woods Park and Recreation District beach.

Trowbridge filed a suit in 1973 when the Del Rio Woods Recreation District partially obstructed the river with a boom to keep the canoeists using Trowbridge’s boats from the Del Rio beach and parking lot. Congestion in the area because of the canoe traffic has long been a sore point with local residents. The Superior Court decision was based on the lowered water level of the river in the summer. Without Coyote Dam, the river would be dry, and therefore unnavigable, ruled Judge Vernon Stoll in 1974.

Healdsburg attorney Francis Passalacqua, representing the Del Rio Woods Recreation District, says the Russian River is in a state of flux because at present the state Department of Fish and Game is recommending rediversion of water from the Russian back to the Eel River, and because Pacific Gas and Electric Co. has not had its license to operate the Van Arsdale dam renewed. Water from the Eel is currently diverted through the Van Arsdale dam to the Russian River, giving it flow in the summer months. Passalacqua believes the courts should not make a declaration that the river is navigable if political decisions can deprive the river of future summer water flows.

The Healdsburg Museum is open for visitors from Wednesday through Sunday, 11am to 4pm. healdsburgmuseum.org.

Drop in interest rates makes buying, refinancing attractive

● Even a small drop can greatly increase your buying power

By Janis Mara

There’s good news for folks looking to buy a home or thinking about refinancing: Mortgage interest rates have fallen to their lowest level in a year.

The average rate on a 30-year U.S. mortgage dropped to 6.17 percent at the end of October, according to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation. Lower interest rates typically mean more buying power for homebuyers and can lower a homeowner’s monthly mortgage payments via refinancing.

“Let’s say you’re house-hunting and you qualified for a mortgage loan for $900,000 at a 7 percent interest rate,” said Daryl Fairweather, chief economist for Redfin.

“If your interest rate goes down to 6.17 percent, it will up your buying power to $1.2 million”—a cool $300,000 increase. “It could put you in a whole different tier.”

The interest rate drops should be especially helpful in areas where more than half the households with the median income can’t afford a house at the median price—the so-called “affordability index.”

Only 9 percent of families with median income in Monterey County can afford to buy a house at the median price —the second-lowest percentage in the state.

In Santa Cruz County it’s just 14 percent. In Sonoma and Santa Clara counties, it’s 19 percent; in Alameda County, it’s 21 percent, and it’s 26 percent in San Benito.

“Even 26 percent is not very high,” Wei said. “It should be 50 percent.”

For the lucky folks who have managed to become homeowners despite the challenges of the market, lower interest rates make refinancing potentially more attractive.

“If you purchased a home for $900,000 with a 7.5 percent interest rate in January 2023 with 20 percent down, your monthly payment would be around $5,034,” Fairweather said.Refinancing with a 6.3 percent interest rate would reset the payment to $4,456—a saving of more than $500 a month.

28 Years Later: The Bone Temple is exactly the kind of movie that one tends to pre-judge before laying eyes on it. It’s the fourth movie in the 28 Days franchise, but also the second in a trilogy that began last June with 28 Years Later. The finale hasn’t started filming, as the studio wants to see if The Bone Temple earns enough money to warrant making a third one.

In my review of last year’s 28 Years Later, I complained that it was innovative but incomplete. Having now seen this middle piece of the trilogy, I can definitely say that The Bone Temple is not only a hugely satisfying film on its own terms, but it makes the first part, 28 Years Later, a more coherent and satisfying movie in desperate need of a final chapter.

28 Years Later: The Bone Temple picks up a few days after its predecessor, with Spike, a still-fantastic Alfie Williams, now entrenched with a group of psychotic predators called the Fingers, who are all decked out like post-apocalyptic versions

of real-life psychotic predators, currently burning in hell, called the Jimmy Saviles. Led by Sir Lord Jimmy Crystal—Jack O’Connell playing his second iconic monster in less than a year, after his charismatically terrifying Irish vampire in Sinners the Jimmys roam across the Scottish Highlands killing most anyone, infected or otherwise, who crosses their paths.

Ralph Fiennes returns as Dr. Ian Kelson, a solitary man researching the virus that turned most of Scotland’s population into rage-fueled zombies, the subject of the original movie, 28 Days Later (2002), while building a massive ossuary in memoriam to those killed in the outbreak. He becomes tentative friends with a massive Alpha zombie he drugs and names Samson, with whom he sits around and gets high with while listening to lots of Duran Duran. The entirety of The Bone Temple is a slow-burn build as we wait for Jimmy and the Fingers to collide with Dr. Kelson and his giant, zombie friend.

● ‘28 Years Later: The Bone Temple’ the second of three in a series — More on page 6

More good news: Interest rates are likely to drop further, though only slightly, according to Oscar Wei, deputy chief economist for the California Association of Realtors.

“I believe that between the end of 2025 and the first three months of 2026 we will likely see some decline in the average 30-year fixed (mortgage) rate, to around 5.75 percent,” Wei said. He noted that there may be fluctuations in the next few weeks.

An important note: It takes about two to four years to recoup the fees for refinancing a home, depending on the closing costs and the monthly savings. If a homeowner plans to sell within a year or two, it doesn’t make sense to refi because there’s not enough time to recoup the charges.

“Take a look at your current mortgage rate and your loan amount before refinancing,” Wei advised. In refinancing as well as buying, there is no arbitrary perfect time—only the perfect time for you. ● 2-Bedroom homes

Healdsburg hoopers overcome injuries

● Better to peak later in season, says coach AJ Crosby

By Caleb Knudsen

Healdsburg’s varsity basketball team plays as hard as any in the county, pulling off the occasional upset while fighting to keep its year record respectable. Second-year coach AJ Crosby said, as the league season began on Jan. 7, “I think we’re starting to hit our stride now.”

Four days earlier the team had broken a dispiriting six-game losing streak by defeating Cloverdale up at their court, 63-57. The effort was marked by the full return of Frank Rea, having recovered

from a football injury, and teammate Ethan Overdorf, who also sustained an injury (less serious) early in the season.

Teague Jasper, who has turned into the leading scorer this year, even hurt his ankle at a birthday party in December.

The early season injuries hurt the team more than it knew at the time. Said Crosby, “At the beginning of the season I thought we were ready for it until all the injuries happened.”

The coach thinks the team has turned a corner. “We’re looking pretty confident going forward, and realize how badly it hurt us,” he said. “Not only schematically and stuff like that, but mentally for the kids; not having those guys in the game.”

In a way, Crosby is glad the injuries came early in the season. “You want to

‘28 Years Later’

Honestly, audiences are going to hate this movie. While it’s never dull and quite funny, not much happens in The Bone Temple. There is still some quite horrific violence, but DaCosta and returning writer—and my personal hero—Alex Garland couldn’t care less about crafting jump scares or making what anyone would classify as a crowd-pleasing horror movie.

Instead, The Bone Temple is a masterclass in internal dread and horror. While the film is fun and exciting, DaCosta and Garland want members of the audience to remember the first time they realized they were going to die, and marinate in that feeling for two hours. As brutal as the film’s villains are, The Bone Temple is also brimming with human empathy, a still quietude and a finale that is legitimately so insanely badass that my jaw hurt from smiling so widely.

be playing your best basketball towards January, February; you don’t want to play your best basketball in November or December,” he said.

Still, the losses have outnumbered the wins. Between the Cloverdale game and last Friday’s game against Elsie Allen, the Greyhounds have won three out of six, losing to league rivals St. Vincent de Paul, Ukiah and Rancho Cotate, with a win against non-league Clear Lake on Jan. 10.

Last week’s home game against Elsie Allen saw the Greyhounds stretch their now-healthy legs and roll to a 30-14 lead at the half. In the second half the Lobos only scored five points, and the game ended with the Hounds running away with it, 64-19.

Sophomore Jasper and junior Overdorf each scored 11 points, but senior Vinny Loupy showed his old form with a 14-point outing. Alo Brooks, a junior, sank two of three 3-point attempts and senior Cooper Conrad did the same.

Their most recent game was Wednesday night this week, Jan. 21, at home against Piner (results too late for press time). The win would settle which team has sole hold of fourth place in the competitive NB-Redwood group, with a good chance to move into third if Ukiah falters.

Following Wednesday’s game the team travels to Petaluma to meet St. Vincent de Paul next Tuesday, then returns home for a Jan. 29 rematch with Rancho Cotate. Those two schools are undefeated in the league to this point.

DaCosta’s direction isn’t as formally daring as Danny Boyle’s, but it’s tonally much more coherent. The dread ratchets up expertly, and I’ll be a little bummed if the third and final film does not move forward. Boyle would be back in the director’s chair, and he’s one of my all-time favorite filmmakers and one of the few that keep moving the horror medium forward. But I really love the tender, chaotic absurdism DaCosta brings to the table.

Hollywood has hurt us before and its greedy distribution models, counterintuitive release schedules and anti-artistic state of being make it difficult for any abused movie lover to trust that the things it feeds us have any real cinematic nutrients. But The Bone Temple is the real deal: a genuinely powerful morality tale that takes us on a dark ride into the best and worst of existence.

It elevates horror into groundbreaking new places, while also treating audience members like intelligent adults who want more than arterial spray from their spooky movies. And Fiennes gives an honest-to-goodness Oscar-worthy performance, and that’s astonishing for a damn zombie movie in 2026.

28 Years Later: The Bone Temple is better than it should be by a pretty wide margin, but I won’t begrudge anyone who doesn’t agree. We’ve been burned before. If Boyle, Garland, DaCosta and company are allowed to make the final film in the trilogy, which is set up beautifully by The Bone Temple, then we’ll have something special and singular on our hands that could be a generational piece of dark, visionary art. Hopefully, Hollywood won’t screw it up first.

That effort has been working its way through Cloverdale’s Planning & Community Development Department, and has obtained several key approvals including a recent Water Supply Assessment (WSA) required by the state. It’s the latest in a series of proposals to develop that south side, according to City Manager Kevin Thompson. “There’s been discussion of some kind of development down there since the ’90s,” he said. “It’s changed over the years. It’s been a golf course. It’s been a horse ranch, or equestrian center.”

The property in question is the Alexander Valley Resort (AVR) site on the southeast end of Cloverdale, accessed via Asti Road. It was approved by the city, almost 20 years ago, to include a golf course, parks, hotel and spa. It’s on the site of a former lumber mill, which must

In other words, don’t let the music die.

Concerns about water supply have been a hurdle to previous projects. However on Dec. 10 Esmeralda did get its WSA approved, as it was backed by the contracted engineering firm and two separate private engineers, and deemed adequate.

“The project in general, although big, uses less water because of the style of homes that are being proposed,” Thompson said. “There are 200 senior units that are apartment-style. And we know from our experience in town that the majority of the water is actually used outdoors,” in lawns and irrigation. “So they have been ultra-efficient in using common areas for water use.”

Even with the WSA, “there are still going to be several public hearings at the planning commission and the city council, so we’ve got a long way to go,” Thompson said.

The next public hearing is Thursday, Feb. 5, an in-person Q&A from 6-8pm at the Cloverdale Veterans Memorial Building. That meeting was suggested by the

If that’s the highlight, it’s not the end. Joel Ross, one of the key talents in the current vibes resurgence in jazz, brings his

city council, and the Esmeralda group readily accepted the opportunity. Stated the city’s announcement of the meeting, “This is an opportunity to hear directly from the developer and get information at the source, while asking questions, sharing comments, or raising concerns directly with the applicants proposing the project.”

The post went on to emphasize that it was not an official city business meeting and would not be recorded or streamed, stating in addition, “and likely no remote participation ability. If you want to take part, you need to join live and in person.”

Who, what, where Esmeralda Institute and the Esmeralda Land Company have published an FAQ on their Esmeralda.org website, tackling a number of questions that residents and neighbors in the Cloverdale area are asking.

It states that the Esmeralda Institute is a 501(c)3 nonprofit dedicated to lifelong learning across generations, inspired by the 150-year-old Chautauqua Institution (a summer learning camp in New York).

The Esmeralda Land Company,

the other partner, is an independent, for-profit company developing the project. It is “backed by patient, values-aligned investors who see this as a unique opportunity to create a special place that will bring new opportunities and energy to Northern Sonoma.”

Esmeralda Institute is a DBA for Adventureland Institute, itself a nonprofit public benefit corporation whose “specific purpose is to provide financial and social assistance to the homeless through the reclaiming and re-purposing of degraded land in America.”

The city manager confirmed that the parcel is inside Cloverdale city limits, and like the “south entry” of Healdsburg, it is not fully plumbed with water, sewage or electrical grid access. In order to build it out as Esmeralda intends to, said Thompson, they would have to complete that access, “but they’re going to have to do it on their dime.”

Framing Arts

— Continued from page 3

shop have made the transition smoother, providing her with much of the necessary business and service knowledge.

Since taking over at the beginning of 2025, a little over a year ago, Molina has made some modifications—including adjustments to the interior of the shop as well as changes to the process of choosing a material or glass—that make the decision easier for the client.

The community’s response has been the most rewarding part of gaining ownership. Since Molina is a long-time employee, many customers are familiar with her and are excited to see her step into this new role. For example, clients looking for a shadow box may come in with sentimental objects, such as baby shoes or military medals, and Molina gets to hear their stories and help them achieve their framing goals. Interactions like these between clients and the owner create the “personable” atmosphere that Molina says appeals to clients and keeps them coming back.

“Every project, conversation, and returning customer reminds me why I love what I do,” Molina recently shared on Facebook. “Thank you to loyal customers and new faces alike for making this journey so rewarding — your support truly means everything to me.”

Molina said her favorite part of the framing process is “knowing that they’re walking away happy, that they’re going to have this cherished piece of art on their wall that’s beautifully framed and honors whatever it is they’re framing.” This is what lies at the heart of framing: The experience of finding and developing the perfect fit for a piece of art, memorabilia or whatever it is that someone wishes to frame.

Framing Arts of Healdsburg is open Tuesday-Saturday in the Vine Street Plaza, at 1067 Vine St. 707.433.9351. Lily Grace Brauninger is a senior at Windsor High School.

ATTN: ROBERT CULLEN P.O. BOX 6875 SANTA ROSA, CA 95406-0875 By: ROBERT CULLEN, President NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code.

If you do not file your response on time, you may lose the case by default, and your wages, money, and property may be taken without further warning from the court. There are other legal requirements. You may want to call an attorney right away. If you do not know an attorney, you may want to call an attorney referral service. If you cannot afford an attorney, you may be eligible for free legal services from a nonprofit legal services program. You can locate these nonprofit groups at the California Legal Services Web site (www.lawhelpcalifornia.org), the California Courts Online Self-Help Center (www.courtinfo.ca.gov/selfhelp), or by

contacting your local court or county bar association. NOTE: The court has a statutory lien for waived fees and costs on any settlement or arbitration award of $10,000 or more in a civil case. The court’s lien must be paid before the court will dismiss the case.
