By this time next week, the Foothills Forever campaign could have enough money to achieve its goal of purchasing the West Mesa of the San Marcos Foothills — thanks to the county. Every member of the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors expressed support Tuesday for a proposal by 2nd District Supervisor Gregg Hart to provide $2 million to the Forever Foothills fund. The board plans to vote on the funding at its meeting on June 8, the day before the deadline for Foothills Forever to buy the property. “It’s really an extraordinary success story,” Supervisor Please see SUPERVISORS on A2

After quite the unusual Santa Barbara Fourth of July last year — beach closures, parking lot closures and no cookouts, yard games or, most importantly, fireworks — city residents can rest assured they’ll get their boomin’ fireworks show this year. The Santa Barbara City Council authorized the waterfront director to execute an agreement with Garden State Fireworks, Inc.

for the 2021 July Fourth and December 2021 Parade of Lights fireworks displays. Garden State Fireworks has put on both shows every year from 2015 to 2019, as 2020’s was canceled. The cost of the show on the Fourth is $55,000, and the Parade of Lights show is $5,500. “I’m really glad that we’re moving into a new pandemic condition where we can allow this,” Santa Barbara Mayor Cathy Murillo told the News-Press. “People will really enjoy it, and

Santa Barbara County’s adjusted case rate reached 1.3 cases per 100,000 residents Tuesday, putting the county within yellow-tier requirements for one week. If case rates stay below the threshold for an additional week, the county will enter the yellow tier June 9. In previous weeks, the county was just short of the yellow tier’s requirement of a case rate at or below 1.9.

The colored tier system will end statewide June 15, opening businesses for normal operations apart from what health officials are calling “megaevents.” Vaccine verification or a negative COVID-19 test will be required to attend events with at least 5,000 people indoors or 10,000 people outdoors. Employers will still be required to follow Cal/OSHA’s current standards, including offering leave for employees exposed to COVID-19. Please see COVID-19 on A2

There will be no stage with bands or live music, food vendors, the parade or the concert. However, with California reopening June 15, there won’t be any restrictions on masks and gathering. The show is roughly 20 minutes long starting at 9 p.m. at West Beach. Other cities in the county have yet to announce fireworks shows for the Fourth of July, except

TRAFFIC, CRIME & FIRE BLOTTER Motorcyclist dies after collision SANTA MARIA — A motorcyclist was pronounced deceased at the scene of a collision with a sedan Monday afternoon around the intersection of Bell Street and Cat Canyon Road. The sedan, a 2005 Honda Civic, was traveling southbound on Bell Street and used a driveway to make a U-turn to start driving northbound. While making a U-turn, the vehicle obstructed the motorcyclist’s path. The

motorcyclist braked heavily and veered slightly leftward before losing control. The motorcyclist hit the driver side of the Civic while being ejected from the vehicle. The driver of the Civic was wearing a seatbelt and was uninjured. Law enforcement does not suspect the driver was under the influence of drugs or alcohol, and a toxicology report will be conducted on the motorcyclist. The identity of the deceased is withheld pending notification of next of kin. — Annelise Hanshaw

to the community and that’s why they got involved … The amount of solid support, from grassroots to somebody who had the ability to give us $5 million and everything in between — we’ve done heavy lifts to protect open space before, but not this fast.” She added that the campaign is not yet over, and there is still money to be raised and loans to pay off. However, the activists can now begin putting together their restoration planning — what Ms. Rose referred to as “phase two” of the program. “Looks like everything’s falling into place,” she said. Along with the inclusion of $2 million for the Foothills Forever campaign in next week’s budget, the board also agreed to consider $100,000 for coastal conservation efforts in the unincorporated areas of North County. Out of the $25.3 million available from American Rescue Plan Act funds restricted to COVID-19 related uses, county staff recommended the board allocate $7 million for a homeless shelter

in Isla Vista unless other funding becomes available, $1.5 million for mental health services and $200,000 for an ARPA economic recovery resource center. The board was also advised to allocate $4 million to the transportation fund and projects, and $4.95 million to Tier 1 Capital Improvement Projects from the $18 million in discretionary ARPA funds. The ARPA funds must be spent or otherwise obligated by Dec. 31, 2024, so board members agreed to take time to understand the needs and find other funding sources to utilize before using up all federal funds. So staff will come back with study sessions periodically between now and the deadline to give presentations on how much money is needed to address childcare needs from pandemicrelated issues, broadband access, workforce housing options and prioritizing CIP projects that have short payback periods. email: gmccormick@newspress. com

that need to be appraised and all the things that are going to be required to make that happen,” Supervisor Hart said. “A $2 million allocation would really cement the momentum that’s under way in this project and make this thing a reality.” The idea was met with unanimous support from all the board members, including Board Chair Bob Nelson. He said that while he hesitated slightly, due to what return could be achieved with the housing built there, he’s critical when the government or executives attempt to take away open spaces from citizens. “I’ve often thought if it was really that big of a public good, then the public should pay for it, and the public is willing to do that here,” Supervisor Nelson said. “The public has put their money where their mouth is on this, so I think I could come around seeing the significant contributions

that have been made from your (Supervisor Hart’s) community.” The board agreed to utilize Santa Barbara County’s discretionary cannabis tax revenue of nearly $9 million to allocate to the fund. Direction was given to staff to return this next Tuesday with an action item. Mary Rose, the campaign director of Foothills Forever, told the News-Press the announcement was “great news.” “Ninety days ago, this was kind of like a few people’s dream,” she said. “It is unprecedented — this community has a legacy of protecting important open space, but we had 90 days.” The property owner offered a deadline extension to June 9 to raise the $18.6 million, and the recent $5 million donation from a longtime local businesswoman got those fighting for the space even closer to their goal. “We’re thrilled that the Board of Supervisors was able to act quickly and help us get there,” Ms. Rose said. “I think they recognized how important it is

She said the library will be taking June 15 (the date Gov. Gavin Newsom proclaimed as the end of the tier system) “with a grain of salt.” Staff limited the building’s capacity to 92 people and is waiting for a greater portion of the population to get vaccinated before opening to more people. Masks are required throughout the visit. Sisters Maria and Anna Alyakrinskaya missed going to the library after the school day this past year. The local high school students felt like part of their routine was gone, and they especially missed the tutoring opportunities provided. They signed up for summer reading alongside their little brother. All programs are offered digitally or outside.

MAJOR, Deanna R.

Deanna Major passed away peacefully at her home in Santa Barbara surrounded by her loving family on Monday, 19 April 2021 at the age of 76. Deanna was born May 20, 1944 in Goethenberg, Nebraska, daughter of Doris (née Gerdes) and Jim Knudsen. Jim was killed in action in France, August 18th, 1944. Doris married Nicholas Camblin, Sr. who adopted Deanna and lovingly raised her as his own. She moved to California at the age of 3 and settled in Sacramento at age 7. She graduated from Encina High School in 1962. She attended UC Berkeley before transferring to NYU where she completed her BA degree (Phi Beta Kappa) and then her MA in History with a teaching credential. She worked as a teacher at South Bronx Middle School then moved into the insurance industry in Seattle and later Los Angeles. Deanna met the love of her life, Bill Major, in Los Angeles at a New Year’s Eve party and they married only a few months later September 3, 1977. In the 1980s, they moved to Sacramento for Deanna to work as the president of the family construction company, Camblin Steel Service. They retired to Santa Barbara in 1994. After her executive career, she returned to her earlier passion: fostering a love of art in children. She worked for ten years as a docent at the Santa Barbara Museum of Art, working with children directly through outreach programs as well as through children’s tours and highlights tours. She served on the SBMA Women’s Board for 20 years in various roles as member, membership VP, president, treasurer and parliamentarian and she chaired two major fundraisers (Mysteries & Masterpieces).

A new chapter unfolds today as libraries reopen their doors to the public in Goleta, Solvang and Buellton. They’re part of the Goleta Valley Library system, where the staff is looking forward to serving patrons again for Express Service. People can walk inside the libraries, where capacity will be limited. Other COVID-19 guidelines will be followed as well. “Our Library Staff have been working hard to prepare for this day. While we are thrilled to reopen, we want to remind the

public that masks are required to enter the libraries,” library director Allison Gray said in a news release. “Also, please be patient as we continue to provide both Sidewalk Service and Express Service. We will gradually increase our hours and the number of people allowed in the buildings. We look forward to pre-pandemic levels of service soon.” Express Service hours are the same as Sidewalk Service: 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Wednesdays through Saturdays. At each site, the entire library will be open except restrooms. Patrons must maintain at least six feet from other people. And

everyone 2 and older must wear a mask. Hand sanitizer and gloves will be available at each entrance. At the Goleta Valley Library in Goleta, patrons will be allowed in on a first-come, first-served basis. They will have 15 minutes to spend inside the library, picking out material and checking it out on a self-checkout machine, using an Express computer, and/ or browsing the Friends of the Library Book Sale.

and now half the people in the county are vaccinated, so people can feel safe finding a spot out on the sand and watching the show.” The mayor estimated that there will be an extra cost of $100,000 to pay for security patrol, traffic control, extra trash receptacles and the subsequent clean-up. However, she said, “This really is a gift to the community.” “I’m excited that we’re doing this. I think people are really looking forward to a fireworks show,” Mayor Murillo said. “I mean, people love fireworks anyway, but as we come out of the pandemic, I think there’s going to be a real sense of celebration.” email: gmccormick@newspress.com

Lucky Lenny Rescue dog inspires pet supplement

Lenny’s owners nursed him back to health, and today he’s doing well.

By MARILYN MCMAHON NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

L COURTESY PHOTOS

Lenny spends time with his owner, Jody Barton. Mrs. Barton and her husband Oliver Barton named their pet nutrition products “Lenny’s” in the French bulldog’s honor.

Lenny’s are a nutrient-rich,100% plant-based pet supplement that is sprinkled on top of pet food. This one, the “Revive” supplement, has “Catch of the Day” on its label.

enny, a French bulldog, once sat in a small wired cage. He was fed only rotten corn and was hours away from being sold to a meat truck in China, a country where they don’t have the same animal protection laws as the U.S. His life changed when Oliver and Jody Barton rescued him and nursed him back to health in Santa Barbara. Their lives changed, too, when the couple — he owns a technology firm and she is in the music industry — created Lenny’s, a nutrient-rich, 100% plant-based pet supplement that is sprinkled on top of pet food. Lenny’s is free of corn, wheat, soy and gluten. The recipes use crueltyfree and vegan ingredients. “Lenny’s is easily accessible, affordable and simple to add to every meal,” Mr. Barton told the News-Press by phone from their home on the Riviera. Lenny’s, which comes in jars, launched last October with three flavors — bacon, chicken and fish. Each is named Function, Prosper

and Revive, respectively, and on the labels are clever phrases like “All bark and no bacon,” “No feathers plucked” and “Catch of the day.” They can be purchased only at www.belikelenny.com for $16.99 each or $49.99 for all three with free shipping. The Bartons have three other dogs — Odie, 15; Olive, 10, and Cash, 2. “They are our beloved fur family, who sleep in our beds, join in our workouts and Zoom video meetings, and travel everywhere with us,” said Mr. Barton. Which is why Nikki Carvey, founder of Road Dogs & Rescue in Lomita, knew exactly who to call when she heard about Lenny and 29 other dogs needing to be rescued in Harbin, China, in September 2019. “Jody and I adopted Cash from Road Dogs and were volunteers there when we lived in Newport Beach,” said Mr. Barton. ”Road Dogs rescues bulldog breeds, and their primary focus is on complicated medical dogs, seniors and special needs puppies. They are the most likely to be euthanized and are often dumped at shelters Please see LENNY on B2

considering his circumstances before he came to live with us.” Mr. Barton noted that in July 2020 they had a foster dog who had been surrendered to Road Dogs and Rescue from a breeder. “One of four major surgeries she needed was an ear canal ablation and would need six to eight weeks to recover and go up for adoption. Adding Lenny’s superfood topper to her meals increased her rate of recovery in half of the time, and we managed to get her adopted within three weeks of her surgeries.” Because of Lenny’s impressive recovery, the Bartons decided that they wanted to help all other pets feel healthier, too, so proceeds from every shaker purchased will go to rescue environments where nutrition is an essential source of rehabilitation in the U.S. “We’re believers that supplements essential to our pets’ modern lifestyles should be accessible and affordable to every pet parent,” Mr. Barton said. “Our ethos is that what we feed our pets should not only taste and do good but not harm or sacrifice a defenseless animal.”

Continued from Page B1 and veterinary clinics. “When the time finally came for Lenny to arrive in our arms in January 2020 and meet the rest of our thriving pack, we realized he was so malnourished, skinny and weak that he needed more than a healthy diet.” The couple struggled to find a product that they could trust for Lenny’s recovery. “He needed plant-based supplements, so we began to do research and shop around for ingredients from various sources, which was time consuming and expensive,” said Mr. Barton. “We decided to create our own formula, and there was improvement within two weeks. He had more energy to walk, and he began to play with the other dogs. He no longer had bad breath. Our veterinarian commented on how healthy he had become

Diversions horoscope • puzzles

By Dave Green

ARIES — If you were in charge of a company’s human resources department, Aries, today you would begin to completely overhaul the recruitment procedure. You would focus more on the human element rather than any diplomas and awards people wave around as evidence of their abilities. Confidence in people combined with trust in your instincts could prove profitable in more ways than you imagine. TAURUS — Taurus, the romantic side of your life may be rocked by a storm of emotion. You may go from intense rage to ecstasy in an instant. The day may instruct you to get hold of your emotions. If you hope to build a stable relationship, it’s necessary to maintain psychological coherence and physical health. GEMINI — The day may be somewhat oppressive, Gemini. It’s possible you will receive some unpleasant news related to your domestic life. Perhaps in the past few years you haven’t been especially careful about your home budget. Or you may have postponed an important maintenance task for too long. While this may not be the day the roof literally falls in, it’s time to take care of repairs. CANCER — You seem frustrated today, Cancer! There’s only one person who could possibly arouse your anger to such a degree, and that’s you. Today’s aspect is favorable for crises of conscience that result in a change of attitude. You’re likely to remember to choose your words more carefully from now on. LEO — This is a contemplative day, Leo. You seem to be developing new techniques, means, therapies, and methods to use in your main occupation. Today you’re likely to question your underlying reasons for so much innovation. Why reinvent the world? Although you may not make any major changes in your activities, you could find new justifications for them. VIRGO — You will have to expect the day to be somewhat frustrating, Virgo. Your friends may insist that you be more cooperative and less individualistic. They could resent your refusal to be part of the team. In fact, your rebelliousness may be earning you quite a reputation! How you deal with these clashes will set the stage for your future. Think carefully before taking action.16, 2015 Monday, November LIBRA — You mustn’t expect

to do whatever you like today, Libra. Quite the contrary! You may be restrained by technical limitations. Perhaps your financial resources will be insufficient. In other words, you won’t be able to follow your usual pattern of taking refuge on a spiritual island and quietly contemplating your inner thoughts. SCORPIO — Science, space exploration, and certain other fields require the participation of all with a very strong team spirit. Stubborn as you are, it doesn’t make you the greatest specialist in group dynamics. Certainly no one would ever accuse you of enjoying working in a group, unless you’re the one in charge. Just such a miracle is possible, Scorpio, provided you take the first step. SAGITTARIUS — What good does it do you to resist change, Sagittarius? Everyone knows that you have trouble adapting to change in the world around you. Unfortunately, that’s life and you can’t do much about it. However, you aren’t powerless. You will find that life is more stable when you can surf the waves of change. Embrace change and make it work for you rather than resist it all the time. CAPRICORN — If you work in a helping profession such as psychotherapy, you’re probably breaking quite a few rules and protocols right now, Capricorn. You may even be going against theories that were a fundamental part of your education. Don’t be troubled by your rebelliousness. It’s important that the status quo be challenged from time to time. It’s people like you who advance the field! AQUARIUS — You don’t have to be a genius or do something extraordinary in order for people to notice you, Aquarius. It’s time you abandon the notion that you can’t play a musical instrument because you don’t have perfect pitch or that you can’t sculpt because you don’t have Michelangelo’s genius! Dare to engage in any hobby or interest that you fancy. PISCES — You aren’t free enough, Pisces. This is especially true in your relationships. With the current astral energy, you can expect to break free of your chains. It’s time for you to participate more in life. Speak your mind. Tell people what you want and when you want it. Surely one of your desires is freedom. Overcome your fear of rejection and ask for it! It really is as simple as that.

Thought for Today

Codeword is a fun game with simple rules, and a great way to test your knowledge of the English language. Every number in the codeword grid is ‘code’ for a letter of the alphabet. Thus, the number 2 may correspond to the letter L, for instance. All puzzles come with a few letters to start. Your first move should be to enter these letters in the puzzle grid. If the letter S is in the box at the bottom of the page underneath the number 2, your first move should be to find all cells numbered 2 in the grid and enter the letter S. Cross the letter S off the list at the bottom of the grid. Remember that at the end you should have a different letter of the alphabet in each of the numbered boxes 1- 26, and a word in English in each of the horizontal and vertical runs on the codeword grid.

City of Goleta wins Hard Won Victory award By GRAYCE MCCORMICK NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

The city of Goleta recently received the Hard Won Victory award from the American Planning Association’s Central Coast Section for its new zoning ordinance, which the City Council adopted on Feb. 18, 2020. The Hard Won Victory award recognizes the positive effect of hard-won victories by professional planners, citizen planners or both working together under difficult, challenging or adverse conditions. The zoning ordinance received this award because “the city established its own rules for development that the public has long sought,” according to a news release. “Adopting the new zoning ordinance was a milestone for the city,” Anne Wells, advance planning manager, said. “It was a culmination of years of hard work and community input, and we are honored to have received the ‘Hard Won Victory’ award.” The city’s new zoning ordinance replaced its existing zoning regulations that were inherited from the county at the time of incorporation. The old zoning ordinance did not reflect the Goleta’s general plan, which governs land use and physical development within the city and establishes policy direction for the city’s growth. The new ordinance revised citywide zoning regulations to implement the general plan and updated development and design standards and permitting procedures. And according to the news release, it helped realize the community’s vision for the future — a safe, beautiful, vibrant and livable community with a robust local economy and a sustainable relationship with the environment. Key personnel involved from the city of Goleta included Peter Imhof, Anne Wells, Andy Newkirk and J. Ritterbeck. email: gmccormick@newspress.com

The Goleta City Council and city staff celebrate the adoption of a new zoning ordinance at the Feb. 18, 2020 City Council meeting.
