Qualifications and Experience
QUALIFICATIONS AND EXPERIENCE
Agent Bio Ed Bass | REALTOR® Ed comes to us after a very successful 23+ year career selling real estate in Contra Costa and Alameda Counties. There he represented buyers and sellers of homes from entry level or first time home buyers to many of the highest priced home sales in Contra Costa County, and everything in between. He is excited about this new start, to an old career, in a new location! His experience and connections in the Bay Area with clients, Realtors, title and escrow officers, mortgage brokers, etc. are sure to be a benefit to his clients here, purchasing or selling. Ed’s previous careers were in the Airline industry with United Airlines and before that he played baseball in the Kansas City Royals organization. Sports have always been a passion for him and he feels it helps in his real estate career. Teamwork, detailed preparation, pride in what you’re doing, handling pressure without showing it, being able to adjust if need be, being selfless for a greater good, and getting the job done. These are traits that cross over to his real estate business. Ed has also enjoyed the numerous hours of coaching that he has donated to his community. From soccer to softball and of course, baseball. He’s already found his way to coaching here at R.L.S where in his first year they went all the way to the championship game! It’s in his blood to teach and he has found he’s really good at it! He and his wife Sheri are excited to be part of the community and look forward to this part of their lives.

“Marina Station is a fantastic opportunity to affordably put down roots so that one can enjoy all that the Monterey Bay Area has to offer, while remaining within an hour from Silicon Valley,” he says. “Buyers can purchase a home that is likely larger and less expensive than the house they currently live in, while enjoying the benefits of a master-planned community.”

Thanks to the gorgeous weather, everyone at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am was in a great mood this week, especially during Wednesday’s Chevron Shoot-out, when a team captained by Clint Eastwood (right) defeated Bill Murray’s team. But at least Murray got a selfie with supermodel (and golfer) Kelly Rohrbach (left). We have more pictures on page 12A, and a special section inside.
Pepe: Mayor threatened me, other leaders

AYOR STEVE Dallas, who is under investigation for “the use of offensive language, the reciting of an off-color joke, and a landlord/tenant dispute,” according to city attorney Glen Mozingo, was also accused this week of bullying and making threatening phone calls. Restaurateur Rich Pepe told The Pine Cone Thursday that twice during the past two weeks, Dallas phoned him “in a rant.” When a group of business leaders talked about the investigation during their monthly meeting two weeks ago, Pepe said he shared what he has heard from people who are critical of the mayor or who have unfavorable stories about him either “creeping around” or “bullying” them.

“And that if you are acting that way, you need to go, especially if you’re an executive or an elected official,” said Pepe, who owns two restaurants and a bakery downtown. “I can’t go 5 feet without someone asking me about it.” Pepe said he wasn’t stating his opinion, but was simply summarizing for the group what others have said to him. The next day, “Dallas called me in a rant, saying, ‘If you’ve got something to say, you say it to my face. You’re badmouthing me around town, and if you don’t stop, you’ll never get anything done in this town again,’” Pepe recounted. “I told him to calm down.” The conversation went on a bit more before coming to an end, and the next day, Pepe reached out to Irma Rodriguez Moisa, the attorney Mozingo hired to investigate the claims against Dallas made by Monterey County Vintners & Growers Association executive director Kim Stemler and others, who so far have gone unnamed.
26-YEAR-OLD Dreamer from Salinas arrested in Arizona last week has been charged with a felony count of smuggling four Mexican nationals across the United States border for profit, according to a federal complaint detailing the circumstances of his arrest. On Jan. 29, United States Border Patrol agents patrolling the southern border near Yuma, arrested six people, including Saul Rodea-Castro, a Salinas man who federal prosecutors say was the driver of a Ford F-150 pickup truck that was used to smuggle four Mexicans — all of whom paid big bucks to reach the United States. Rodea-Castro “did aid and abet bringing into the United States said aliens for private financial gain,” according to a Jan. 31 criminal complaint filed in 2pm–6pm United States District OPEN HOUSE | Sat & Sun 2pm–4pm Court, District of Arizona that was signed by Border Patrol agent Travis Joseph and 216 United StatesWay, Magistrate Judge Mirasol Monterey James F.

He “was not willing to answer questions without a lawyer present,” according to the complaint, which indicates that three of the immigrants identified Rodea-Castro as the getaway driver. During their investigation, Border Patrol agents also learned that Rodea-Castro was a recipient of the Deferred Action on Childhood Arrivals, an Obama Administration program that has enabled immigrant children who were brought to the United States illegally by their parents to stay here without fear of being deported. “At that time, the driver was arrested for bringing illegal

Council gives Fink 60 days to get trash area out of Piccadilly Park
HE SOUTH Monterey County man who is a defendant in a $1.5 million lawsuit filed by one of the Chowchilla kidnappers has filed a countersuit alleging he was injured while working in a mine owned by the convict. Frederick Newhall Woods, 66, who is serving a life sentence in a San Luis Obispo prison for his part in abducting 26 schoolkids and their bus driver in the town of Chowchilla 42 years ago, filed suit in November 2017 in Monterey County against real estate broker Michael Bianchi and his wife, Janelle, for allegedly ruining a Christmas tree farm that Woods hired Michael Bianchi to oversee. On Dec. 21, 2017, however, Woods’ Los Angeles attorney, Dominique Banos, amended the lawsuit to list Irene Sugano, a trustee of the Fred Woods Trust, as the plaintiff in the
ANTINETTA LUCA owner David Fink may end up battling the city in court over the council’s decision Tuesday night that a garbage enclosure in Piccadilly Park next to the restaurant has to be removed. Although the planning department and several other city officials signed off on the 111-square-foot enclosure in 2006, senior planner Marnie Waffle said this week that Fink never obtained permission from the council to have the structure on public property. She recommended council members deny it and order Fink to remove the trash area, which they did on a 3-1 vote.
