PB strip mall’s complete overhaul finalized, ready for surprising lineup
By DAVE SCHWAB
The musical chairs in the Staples-anchored strip mall at 1650 Garnet Ave. between Jewell and Ingraham streets has stopped, with five businesses taking their “seats” and demolition beginning Aug. 1 for an anticipated May 2015 reopening. Kristen Victor, president of nonprofit beautifulPB, said she’s been told by redevelopment project architect Carrier Johnson + Culture that two businesses formerly in the mall — Staples and San Diego County Credit Union
Inside the hookah-lounge craze
(SDCCU) — will be returning along with the addition of Trader Joe’s relocating from 1211 Garnet Ave., a Walgreens pharmacy and PetSmart. Two businesses previously in the mall, Empire Beauty Supply and Salon and Daisy Cleaners, have moved across the street to the property that once housed Pacific Coast Bicycles at 1637 Garnet Ave.

months completely remodeling the retail space, which was “resurrected” and reopened three months ago as a full-on restaurant-lounge. Pharaoh’s serves up food, smoke and beer and wine in its own unique, exotic style. “People come here for

Pros, cons cited after OK of minimum-wage hike Will raising the city’s minimum wage to $11.50 an hour by Jan. 1, 2017 make San Diego more affordable for those with lower incomes, or will it ultimately harm workers by costing them a chance at jobs? That’s the question to be answered after a measure was adopted July 15 by San Diego City Council, which plans to boost the city’s minimum wage to $9.75 in 2015, $10.50 in 2016 and to $11.50 in 2017.

SANDAG seeks public input on trolley plan document, new environmental wrinkle The San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) invites public comment on a supplemental environmental document for the Mid-Coast Trolley extension project that will evaluate a previously unidentified impact on San Diego’s fairy-shrimp population. The fairy shrimp is a federally listed endangered species. Pacific Beach would be nearly at the center of the proposed route between the downtown Santa Fe Depot to the south and the UCSD and Westfield UTC areas to the north, should the plan be ultimately approved. The 45-day public comment period for the document, available at sandag.org/midcoast, ends Sept. 2. The report, a supplement to the draft supplemental environmental impact statement/subsequent environmental impact report (SEIS/SEIR), discloses impacts to a fairy-shrimp population that lives next to a set of railroad tracks during surveys in 2014. The impact statement was circulated for review and comment from May 17, 2013 to July 17, 2013. The locally endangered San Diego fairy shrimp reaches a length of about an inch and is named for the fairylike movements it makes when swimming. Comments on the latest supple-
mental report are limited to the analysis of impacts to fairy shrimp. Responses will be provided in the final SEIS/SEIR, along with responses to comments received on the previously released draft SEIS/SEIR. The SANDAG board is expected to take action on the document later this year. Comments may be submitted in these formats: • U.S. mail: Leslie Blanda, Mid-Coast Project Development Program Manager. San Diego Association of Governments, 401 B St., Suite 800, San Diego, 92101. • Email: midcoast@sandag.org. • Fax: (619) 699-1905. • Voicemail: (619) 595-5620. The project would be funded in partnership by SANDAG (using a regional half-cent sales tax for transportation improvements) and the Federal Transit Administration New Starts Program. Construction is anticipated to begin in 2015, with service starting in early 2019. — Staff and contribution
GUEST VIEW
Opposition organizing against trolley line By JANET POUTRE Residents of what some are calling the East Bay Communities (Bay Park, Bay Ho, Overlook Heights and western Clairemont) are organizing an event they hope will raise the neighborhood’s awareness of the city’s proposed zoning changes to the area around three new trolley stations planned for Morena Boulevard. It’s not the usual rally with impassioned speakers and homemade signs; instead they plan to walk a 10-foot-wide red heliumfilled balloon, raised to a height of 60 feet, down Morena Boulevard. The idea is to help residents visualize the impact of one of the proposed changes, raising the existing height limit for buildings from 30 feet to 60 feet. Organizers also want to express concerns over other citybacked revisions to the community plan. The demonstration is scheduled for Sept. 27 at 10 a.m. Although the new plan has yet to be fully vetted and approved by the City Council, it does include recommendations for increasing the density and reducing the required parking spaces for new development in the area. The argument for reduced parking is that because of the proximity to the trolley stations, and with the proliferation of other transportation options like Car2Go
and Uber, residents of new buildings on Morena will likely have only one car or none at all. The city says it needs to make these changes to be able to attract developers who will provide needed housing. Locals contend the residential area’s infrastructure, much of which was built in the late 1940s through the ’50s, cannot handle the increased traffic new development would bring to the neighborhood. They say parking is already a problem in Bay Park. The trolley stations, at Tecolote Road and Morena, at Clairemont Drive and Morena and at Balboa and Morena, will serve the alreadyapproved Mid-Coast trolley expansion. Expanding the trolley service area is part of an effort by SANDAG (San Diego Association of Governments) and the city to meet state requirements to reduce emissions from vehicles under SB 375. The new trolley line will run from the Santa Fe Depot downtown up to UCSD and terminate at Westfield UTC shopping center. Construction is expected to start in 2015, with riders boarding the first trolley cars sometime in 2019. — Janet Poutre is publisher of the blog ClairemontCentral.com.

Summer ocean gremlins return
Photo by Goulding/jagmediaproductions.com
Bird Huffman Well, it is officially summer, and you know what that means, right? I'm not talking about the longer days and warmer evenings. Not even thinking about the crowds and lack of easy parking anywhere within a mile of the beach. Smaller surf and less of it? Nope. I'm talking about stingrays. The gremlins of the ocean who always appear right around now as the tides drop out to negative lows and water temps climb up into the low 70s. These creatures are nasty, and it has already been near an epidemic year for people getting stung by them. Beach breaks are the most likely place to run into them, but sand pockets in the reefs can harbor these little land mines as well. Though the wound that they inflict is usually just a small laceration, the pain can be a very serious thing to deal with. On rare occasions, the stingray’s barb can actually break off inside of the victim’s body, so great care must be taken to make sure none
GREMLINS OF THE OCEAN Surfers and oceangoers are finding this to be a near-epidemic year for stingray encounters. Though some water enthusiasts espouse the “stingray shuffle” to ward off a potential encounter, beachgoers should, at the very least, walk soft and slow.
of this foreign matter is left in the wound. Treatment for a wound is somewhat limited. It normally consists of putting the damaged area water into as hot as can be tolerated, then adding hot water at regular intervals. I have been told that the poison from the barb is protein based. Down in Mexico, the locals will squeeze lemon juice into the affected area as a way to help neutralize the nasty stuff. Some people can handle the pain better than others, just as some wounds are worse than others. My experiences with being stung have been somewhat lucky, I'd say. The initial sensation was a quick prick and a burning sensation. As the body starts to react to the venom, I felt
that burn grow quickly in intensity and start to spread up my leg. Even with a hot-water soaking, the pain remained steady for nearly three hours. The affected area remained sensitive to the touch or occasional rub for a few weeks after the incident. In 50-plus years of ocean enjoyment, I have only been hit two times. But that’s still more than enough to remind me to stay vigilant at any time of the year while walking out to surf. I shuffle my feet as much as possible. I know a few guys who will slap at the top of the water in an effort to scare the critters away. How effective this can be is unknown. In any event, walk soft and slow,
SeaWorld, animal activists take their war public at airport People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) revelealed it has placed another anti-SeaWorld message at San Diego's airport. The 20-foot-long banner is intended to discourage attendees arriving for this week's Comic-Con International convention from visiting SeaWorld San Diego while they're in town. PETA has been demonstrating against the theme park for years, claiming that the animal theme park’s killer whales are mistreated. SeaWorld has launched an aggressive pushback campaign, detailing the benefits of public education and scientific research that would not ordinarily be available in the wild. PETA’s $24,000 banner, placed near the baggage claim of Terminal 2 at Lindbergh Field, depicts an Orca holding the foot of a man with its teeth. The man, wearing a suit and a “CEO'” label, is supposed to represent the company's chief
executive. The banner, created by Bluewater Productions — a Vancouver, Wash., producer of comic books and graphic novels — includes the text: “He will let you go if you let him go. PETA.” “Comic-Con fans love blood and guts when they’re fake, but at SeaWorld, it’s all too real for comfort,” Bluewater founder Darren Davis said. “The Orcas are desperate to be free. That’s why trainers have been killed and that’s what we’re depicting in this campaign with PETA." David Koontz of SeaWorld San Diego said the theme park has its own advertising at the airport, including wall murals and on baggage claim monitors in both terminals. “Even by PETA’s standards, this ad is as offensive as it is tasteless,” Koontz said. “PETA isn’t concerned with actually helping animals. They are a radical organiza-
tion that continues to spend its money on publicity stunts like the profane Jason Biggs video and advertising campaigns like this for the sole purpose of promoting their agenda.'” Koontz said the park’s killer whales are “healthy and happy, and thrive in our care. The real animal welfare organization is SeaWorld, not PETA, and our trainers, aviculturists, animal-care staff and veterinarians are the true advocates for animals.'” The public can get SeaWorld's point-of-view at www.seaworld.com/truth and www.seaworldcares.com, he said. In May, PETA placed a wall poster in Terminal 2 in which actress and San Diego native Kathy Najimy urged visitors to avoid SeaWorld San Diego. The poster was placed at the airport after the animal-rights organization successfully sued the airport. — Staff and City News Service
News City OKs tougher water restrictions After three successive years of drought, the city has issued a Level 1 alert calling for citizens to voluntarily participate in waterconservation measures, including not watering lawns more than three days a week and watering lawns or washing vehicles only before 10 a.m. or after 6 p.m. during summer months. California is mired in a longterm drought and San Diego is no exception. Noting San Diego’s annual rainfall average recorded at the official measurement station at Lindbergh Field is 10.34 inches, National Weather Service forecaster Jimmy Taeger said the rainfall amount for 2013-14, which ended June 30, was 5.06 inches. Taeger said rainfall levels the previous year in 2012-13 were 6.51 inches and 8.03 inches the year before that in 2011-12. The forecaster said you have to go back to 2010-11 to find the last year when rainfall was at or above normal, with 12.62 inches that year. Recent changes to the city’s emergency water regulations have established new restrictions on water use, as well as stepping up enforcement and penalties. All water waste is prohibited in the San Diego Municipal Code. Wasting water is illegal at all times, even when no drought-response
levels are in effect. Any violations of the water-use restrictions associated with drought-response levels are also treated as water waste. The city may penalize those who continue to waste water with an escalating series of penalties up to and including shutting off water service. When customers continue to waste water after being contacted by the Public Utilities Department’s conservation staff, the city's Code Enforcement Department can step in. Should a customer refuse to stop overwatering, fail to repair a leak or continue other water waste, a code-enforcement officer or waterwaste investigator will fashion an appropriate response. Code-enforcement officers have a variety of remedies to help ensure compliance, including issuing a warning letter, administrative citations ranging from $100 to $1,000, civil penalties up to $2,500 per day for violations, referral to the City Attorney’s Office for civil or criminal prosecution and shutoff of water service., On July 15 California’s Water Resources Control Board voted to impose mandatory water-use restrictions statewide in response to California’s ongoing drought. For San Diego, however, permanent mandatory water-use restric-

tions in place since 2009 already meet elements of the requirements mandated by the state. As a result, the state’s regulation does not require the city to make changes to its emergency water regulations but should serve as a reminder to all San Diegans that using water efficiently, and in compliance with the city’s current water use restrictions, are important to help conserve water during this severe drought condition. “I want to thank San Diegans, who for years have done a tremendous job of stepping up to the plate to incorporate water conservation into their way of life,” said Mayor Kevin Faulconer. “This summer, as we see temperatures climb, we must continue to be mindful of the current drought situation by adhering daily to the city’s permanent water use restrictions,” he said. The city will continue to review the state’s decision and monitor the drought conditions throughout the state to determine if any changes to its drought response level are necessary. In the meantime, the city’s focus will be to reduce water waste by educating residents on how to comply with the restrictions through education rather than an enhanced enforcement system focused on fines.

News QUICKHITS >> TRIAL DELAY GRANTED IN PB PEDESTRIAN’S DEATH
A Nov. 3 trial date has been set for an Air Force veteran accused of gross vehicular manslaughter while under the influence of prescription drugs in the death of a Pacific Beach man on La Jolla Village Drive. The defendant, Soranon Booppanon, is accused of causing the Oct. 23 crash that killed pedestrian George Matteson, 77, and seriously injured his wife, Betty, 74. Booppanon, of San Diego, has pleaded not guilty. Booppanon appeared in San Diego Superior Court on July 14 with her attorney to seek a delay in the trial, which had been set for Aug. 18. She remains free on her own recognizance on the condition she does not drive. Booppanon, 40, was driving to the La Jolla Veterans Administration hospital when she reportedly ran a red light and struck two cars and a truck at the intersection of La Jolla Village Drive and Genesee Avenue, killing Matteson. She was taking a painkiller, valium and other drugs at the time. — Neal Putnam SUSPECT IN ‘REVENGE PORN’ CASE SET FOR TRIAL
A Nov. 12 trial date was set for a
Pacific Beach man who ran a “revenge porn” website, for which he demanded money from women whose ex-boyfriends put their nude photos online. Kevin Christopher Bollaert, 28, pleaded not guilty July 16 when he appeared in San Diego Superior Court to get a trial date set on his extortion and identity-theft case. His websites were shut down a year ago by the state Attorney General’s Office. Bollaert’s lawyer, Alex Landon, has previously argued that Bollaert created a forum and received photos from the public, which responded to the website. Landon maintained the website “may be distasteful,” but he questioned in court whether it was illegal. The 27 counts of identity theft allege that Bollaert posted the names, sometimes phone numbers or identifying information about the women. Bollaert asked for payment of up to $250 to remove the photos from another website called “changemyreputation.com.” Bollaert was ordered to stand trial on all the charges, along with conspiracy allegations, after a four-day preliminary hearing last month. He remains free on $50,000 bond. — Neal Putnam

COMIC-CON’S GROWTH IS NO LAUGHING MATTER
1970 will go down in San Diego lore as the year that featured not one Comic-Con event, but two. The inaugural parley, held March 21, was only meant to raise funds and possibly bump up interest for a future convention. Somehow, the idea took hold immediately, and the minicon morphed into a three-day gala that August, with 300 attending discussion groups and film screenings and featuring sci-fi writer Ray Bradbury as a guest. The rest is history, of course. San Diego’s Comic-Con International is the model for every popular-arts festival of its kind worldwide, with more than 130,000 attending a colossal slate of interviews, films, awards ceremonies and panel talks and infusing about $160 million into the local economy over its single weekend. This year’s edition opened with a preview night on July 24 and runs through Sunday, July 27, with most events taking place in the vicinity of the San Diego Con-

vention Center downtown. Among the favorite events is the Masquerade Awards competition, in which the entrants run with their imaginations in designing their escapist sartorials.

MALL >> CONT. FROM PG. 1
Three other businesses formerly in the Staples mall — Little Caesers and Postal Annex — have left and will not be returning. CVS has an existing pharmacy across the street in the Vons shopping center. “We learned that the project has been in design for three years,” said Victor about the project, which some feel has been shrouded in secrecy. “Some feel that developers should have been more involved in engaging the community in this project,” Victor said. One of those disappointed by how the Staples redevelopment has been handled is Brian Curry, chairman of the Pacific Beach Planning Group (PBPG). Curry dashed off a letter to city planners, noting, “An applicant for a 60,000-square-foot retail center in the heart of Pacific Beach (Ingraham and Garnet) was not required to appear at the PBPG or engage in any community outreach. This situation results in an incredible disconnect on forward planning. It seems planning policy should be revisited to guarantee that the public and PBPG is consulted on any new development in PB, especially with regard to major projects.” Victor said there were two reasons why the Staples redevelopment was not required by the city to come before PBPG for public review.
“Only those projects on the west side of Ingraham Street have to go through coastal review, and this project is on the east side,” she said. “Also because they’re (developers) knocking down the entire building and rebuilding with the same structure.” Vicki Piazza of Carrier Johnson + Culture said the initial idea was to keep half of the building space at the Staples mall and rebuild the other half, which had to be abandoned. “The building, built in 1962, just wasn’t equipped to handle modern big-box retail,” Piazza said, adding leases have not been signed with all five prospective tenants. Piazza said the building will not be completely rebuilt to almost the exact specifications of the older building, but slightly smaller. The architect said Staples has said that its new prototype store which is going into the rebuild is as much as 2,000 feet smaller than its previous space. She said that space could become available for other uses, though Staples could very well find a use for it. Victor said the latest news about the Staples mall rebuild is a positive development. The fact that there is 2,000 extra square feet of space possibly available, Victor said, means “that may allow us to develop that as a community group office to be used by Discover PB (BID), PBPG, PB Town Council and other civic and school
News groups. We’re talking about some sort of civic engagement place, a place with seating for meetings.” Victor said a proposed Decobike bikeshare station planned to go in on the corner of Ingraham Street and Garnet Avenue could possibly be “retooled” so that it could cater to bicycle enthusiasts. “We’re talking about possibly creating a bike shed which people could use to store and repair their bikes which could be part of the bike path that goes through PB,” Victor said. Chris Olson, a member of both beautifulPB and the PBPG, said having community and bike centers in the middle of PB’s business district would “be like a dream come true.” Olson said there is also talk of doing work on the stormdrains in that same area to prevent runoff from polluting the bayfront ecosystem. Reconstruction on the Staples rebuild is expected to be completed by March 2015. “There will be two months after that for companies to go in and do tenant improvements before opening up in May 2015,” Victor said.

“There are many options for hookah bars now. Before, there weren’t many,” he said. Shamas said hookah lounges are popping up all over the country. In San Diego, he said there are as many as 30 concentrated along El Cajon Boulevard alone. A hookah is a multi-stemmed waterpipe used to vaporize and smoke flavored tobacco called shisha, which is passed through a glass water basin before being inhaled. Hookahs are an ancient smoking tradition, originating from the Persian Empire. Hookahs later spread to Egypt in the Middle East and Turkey during the Ottoman dynasty. The smoking apparatus has since gained popularity throughout the world. The shisha is virgin, natural tobacco with flavoring and glycerine, said Shamas. A customer can purchase 250 grams of flavored shisha in a wide variety of flavors, which costs $14 to $20. That amount of shisha will typ-
ically last a group of three people about two hours. Hookah pipes are meant to be shared, said Shamas. He said that’s a big part of the lounge’s appeal. What else is appealing about Pharaoh’s is the food. Fresh fruit and fruit drinks are offered, as well as a full menu and deli. Offerings include salads, sandwiches and panninis for lunch, brunch and dinner. “We’ll be open for breakfast soon once we’ve established ourselves here,” said Shamas. Pharaoh’s is also a great place to people-watch, any time of the night or day, as Shamas can attest. “It’s very social and you can meet lots of new people,” he said, adding there’s a never-ending stream of passersby to gaze at; people of every age, background and walk of life. “It’s a younger crowd at night than it is during the daytime,” said Shamas, noting the lounge
is open late on weeknights, until 4 a.m., and 2 or 3 a.m. on weekdays depending on the turnout to capture that crowd. “We get large groups of 20 people sometimes,” said Shamas. He offers an open invitation for guests to drop in and experi-
ence what a hookah lounge is all about. “Come in and try it at least once,” he said. “It’s very social, very modern. The brands, flavors and tastes of the tobacco are amazing. It’s something different, something unique.”
with Democrats voting in favor and Republicans voting against. Republican Mayor Kevin Faulconer and the San Diego Chamber of Commerce, led by recent past Republican Mayor Jerry Sanders, have opposed the wage increase. “I feel the deal we reached on minimum wage was a fair compromise,” concluded District 2 Coun-
cilman Ed Harris. “I’ve seen the research and data that points to the positive impacts of raising the minimum wage and providing earned sick leave. “By paying a livable wage, we can help avoid paying higher social service costs, and by providing earned sick leave, we support higher employee productivity in the long
term. “I don’t know how people living in San Diego can make ends meet on $1,560 a month,” continued Harris, noting, that “That’s what a full-time minimum-wage earner makes at the current rate of $9 an hour.” $9 an hour, the state's minimum wage law, went into effect July 1.
Supporters of the new minimum wage argue the pay increase helps the impoverished without hurting the local economy. Detractors counter that a higher minimum wage puts employers at a competitive disadvantage, causing them to hire fewer employees, thus hurting the segment of the population that the city is attempting to help.

LIVEMUSIC >> By BART MENDOZA They’re back! After a lengthy hiatus, long-running night spot Brick by Brick has reopened its doors under new management. The venue has been partially remodeled and there has been no time wasted in putting together a terrific lineup, including Drum Wars: An Evening with rock legends Vinnie and Carmine Appice on July 24, The Burning of Rome on July 26 and Fuel on July 31. Plans are for the venue to feature a mix of genres, but with former members of the band As I Lay Dying, who are now owners of Brick by Brick, you can expect rock to feature heavily. The building as a music site goes back to 1975, when Jerry Herrera first opened it as The Spirit. It’s great to see the tradition of great music at 1130 Buenos Ave. continue, hopefully for many years to come. • VINNIE AND CARMINE APPICE: Thursday, July 24 at BRICK BY BRICK, 1130 Buenos

Seniors Helping Seniors Honors Client Who Served as WASP During WWII During World War II, a select group of young women pilots became pioneers, heroes, and role models. They were the Women Airforce Service Pilots, WASP's, the first women in history trained to fly American military aircraft. The WASP program was born in 1942 to create a corps of female pilots able to fill all types of flying jobs at home, thus freeing male military pilots to travel to the front. Thirty-eight WASPS were killed in service in World War II and about 100 of the more than 1,000 WASPs are still alive today. Seniors Helping Seniors is proud to provide assistance to one of these brave women, Beverly Beesemeyer, and honors her service to our country as we celebrate Independence Day.

Sports travel clubs: conflict of a young athlete’s school ties or independent betterment By ED PIPER
Back in the day, the young athlete had it relatively simple: play for the school sports team or play Little League baseball, Pony League and Colt League. There might be a batting cage in town (and there might not be) for organized team trips. Soccer wasn’t quite established in the American youth sports world. Fast-forward to the modern era of heightened attention on sports in our culture, with its ESPN 24hour news cycle. Young people can now get a highlight disk of their best plays, custom-made for college recruiters. Parents may hire a personal trainer for their child to improve individual skills in the sport of their choice. Recruiting starts early, jet-propelled by the Internet and electronic communications. Welcome to the brave new world that young athletes and their parents already know and have been negotiating since at least the 1990s. Enter the travel-team competition, pitting young athletes against visiting organizations that bring unfamiliar names and situations to the events and, with them, the opportunity to underscore success. Joe Palatella, La Jolla High School’s All-CIF volleyball hitterblocker, sees the blue skies of travel team competition and highly skilled coaching that have accompanied his skill development by leaps and bounds since his freshman year. “Since the Mizuno 18-1’s Coast Darrel team is so talented,” Palatella texted, referring to his club team, “we would be playing on the top courts, playing the best teams and getting all those reps. It’s a lot of work. But if you love volleyball and you want to get better, it’s the way to go.” Palatella, a 6-foot, 5-inch leaper entering his senior year as a Viking, points to USC, Texas, South Carolina, Georgia and Miami as colleges with talented volleyball teams he would love to play for next year. He would be the first to talk about the
DEFENSIVE MOVE La Jolla High Viking Joe Palatella, left, and Jack Chapman, center, apply the block against Kamehameha, Hawaii in March. Photo by Ed Piper
enjoyment and success he has experienced on the La Jolla CIF Division III championship team in 2013 and the team’s march to the Division I semifinals in the recently completed 2014 season. Across the La Jolla High campus, Riley Young, headed to Louisiana State University next month to play for the Lady Tigers, sharpened her skills playing for coach Dave Jones, who coaches the boys’ and girls’ teams. Young savored her fleeting times with classmates as a senior this spring and said she enjoyed social activities like the prom that are part of the school experience. “I love how social activities are involved with school,” said Young, who leaves Aug. 17 for Baton Rouge. “I like on the school team how close we all are.” Regarding her club experience, she said, “A club team is good because you can pick the coach you want to play for. The competition is much better than high school is. It’s different not having it tied to campus, because you’re playing with [unknown] girls all around the county versus with the girls you go to school with.” Coach Paul Baranowski, varsity head coach of the La Jolla High boys’ basketball team, sees both sides of the road. Baranowski, with 20-plus years’ coaching, has also directed travel teams. “I have mixed feelings about the
inherent conflict which exists for players,” he said. Sometimes players have to choose to play for the school team or a club team only. CIF recently reaffirmed by vote its rule against an athlete playing for a club team concurrent with the high school season. Club soccer teams have ongoing competition year-round. Some travel squads don’t allow team members to play for their high school teams. Baranowski cited the value of travel teams in the interest of an individual player’s improvement. But he cautioned that families should gain information about coaches before signing up. “My preference,” he said, “is that high school players prioritize school team commitments ahead of club participation.” Jones, the Viking volleyball coach, is also a classroom teacher. Contacted during his teaching day in summer school, he voiced some strong opinions about travel clubs and non-teacher coaches in general. “I think there’s a huge difference between [club and school teams],” Jones said. “The biggest difference I see are the intangibles that are taught in school versus on the club teams. When you look at attitude and leadership [being emphasized], those things come in as factors on club teams, but not as much.”

Residents divided on how to deal with homelessness dilemma
11 By DAVE SCHWAB
Some say eject the bad seeds; others call for compassion, better allocation of resources Social-service providers and police officials detailed efforts to curb homelessness in Ocean Beach recently while at the same time answering to frustrated residents who feel not enough is being done to solve the problem. Both sides of the issue — including advocacy of the need for services and calls for compassion for human rights and outright ejection of the sometimes harassing and violent homeless squatters — were aired during a public forum hosted by District 2 City Councilman Ed Harris on July 10. Local residents packed the Point Loma/Hervey Branch Library community room to hear from public officials and then give their own takes on the homeless situation, which some feel has gotten out of hand. One woman said she felt like a prisoner in her own home, claiming she’s virtually had to lock herself in to keep out homeless vagrants. Another angry resident half-jokingly suggested the homeless ought to be removed from the area and taken somewhere where their appetites for alcohol and drugs could be appeased without disturbing the community. A local restaurant owner said he might have reconsidered locating his business into the area if he’d known the homeless problem there was so severe. A panel of service providers on hand for the homeless discussion included Kalie Standish, PATH-Connections Housing; Piedad Garcia, county Department of Mental Health; Tom Theisen, Regional Task Force on the Homeless;
Milissa Peterman, San Diego Housing Commission; and Sgt. Teresa Clark of the SDPD Homeless Outreach Team (H.O.T.). Standish, associate director of community engagement of People Assisting The Homeless — or PATH — a group of agencies working cooperatively to end homelessness, said putting a roof over street people’s heads is the first step to getting them stabilized and headed back toward leading productive lives. “We’re able to redirect folks,” said Standish of the program, which she said provides an array of services. Standish said there’s been a 70-percent reduction in homelessness in surrounding communities when a comprehensive approach involving wrap-around social services is offered. Meanwhile, Garcia said, “The main challenge for us is to coordinate the efforts of multiple agencies linking the individual with needed services.” Garcia said it’s very difficult to house the homeless because they need to acquire the necessary identification to get the paperwork accomplished, as well as to clean up any legal warrants or financial black marks from their past. Theisen talked about a new homelessness pilot program under way currently in downtown San Diego, which he said involves a “coordinated assessment and housing placement program.” That program, Theisen said, involves volunteers who actively count and assess the homeless to categorize them and their needs. Those homeless
OCEAN BEACH’S DARKER SIDE: AN EXPLORATION GRAPPLING WITH HOMELESSNESS A police officer restrains an unruly homeless man at the seawall in Ocean Beach.

Photo by Jim Grant
people can then be dealt with in a much more individualized and focused way once they’re housed and off the streets. Details of the available programs drew responses from community members and local representatives. “You need to take those pilot programs and bring them to our coast,” said Gretchen Kinney Newsom, president of the Ocean Beach Town Council. “We need them right now.” Cathy Kenton, a business owner in
the Midway area, said their coastal neighborhood “has become the dumping ground” for homeless people displaced from elsewhere in the city. “Our employees do not feel safe coming and going to work in our neighborhood,” Kenton said. Melanie Nickel, chairwoman of the Midway-Pacific Highway Planning Group, said there are four separate types of homeless in the area: people sleeping on the streets in tents, those living in vehicles, those who take to
panhandling on medians and others who lounge in business parking lots. Clark, of the police department’s H.O.T. team, said the key is not only to identify resources for the homeless, but to get the homeless matched up with the appropriate resources. Theisen urged residents to be patient regarding the homelessness situation, saying, “There is no magic solution. If you want to solve the problem, you have to put the resources behind it.”
Police, social services outreach programs play key role in finding solutions The first line of defense in efforts to control homelessness is the San Diego Police Department’s Homeless Outreach Team (H.O.T.). The H.O.T. team consists of police officers, county Health and Human Services Department specialists and psychiatric clinicians from the Psychiatric Emergency Response Team (PERT), a private nonprofit organization. The H.O.T. team is available to assist the community with homelessness-related issues. At a recent public forum hosted by District 2 City Councilman Ed Harris on homelessness issues in the Peninsula area, Sgt. Teresa Clark of the H.O,T. team told residents the key to resolving homelessness is not only to identify resources to aid those out on the street, but to get homeless people to seek out those resources. No easy task, said Clark, since people at present cannot be forced to take advantage of available social services. Clark said one objective of the H.O.T. team is “compassionate enforcement.” “It’s hard to grab people up,” said Clark, noting, “You can’t put them all in the jail system — it just can’t handle it.”
What H.O.T. team members do, said Clark, is help homeless people to “make connections, pull them off the streets and get them more help.” Describing enforcement as “very challenging,” Clark said one resource available for everyone to tap into immediately is to call 2-1-1. That number is an information hub that connects people with community, health and disaster services through a free, 24/7 confidential phone service and searchable online database. “It’s just like calling 9-1-1,” said Clark, who added the 2-1-1 line allows searches for social services, including everything from substance-abuse treatment to child or elder care, food, housing and financial assistance. By dialing 2-1-1, clients are linked with highly-trained service representatives who can help provide a wide range of immediate resources to individuals and families. A recent survey of about 1,100 homeless people downtown revealed that 62 percent were “chronically homeless,” meaning they’ve lived on the street a year or more. About 14 percent of the homeless population are veterans, and as many

Their duties also include dealing with homelessness issues, public drunkenness and finding means to offer the homeless an opportunity to take advantage of programs and services to get them off the street — if vagrants choose to take advantage of such programs.

as 75 percent of them are classified as having serious mental-health problems. Perhaps surprisingly, surveys have found the largest proportionate group of homeless is in the 50-to-59 age range.
Another 12 percent of the homeless population is age 60 or older. Two-thirds of the homeless population is from San Diego or Southern California.
By DAVE SCHWAB
A total of 92 percent of homeless people surveyed, when asked if they would move off the street and into transitional housing given the opportunity, said they would accept. On the city’s website, the SDPD and elected officials recognize there is a fine line between homelessness as a social issue and a criminal issue. It is noted that many homeless are on the street because of substance abuse, mental illness, or both. Often the disorder issues associated with homelessness are criminal in nature — but difficult to enforce. Being homeless is also not a crime, although many kinds of public conduct — public intoxication, loitering, prowling, fighting, trespassing, aggressive panhandling, soliciting, urinating and defecating in public, camping or sleeping in parks, littering, obstructing sidewalks, living in a vehicle parked on a public street, disturbing the peace by loud and unreasonable noises, using offensive words, behaving in a threatening manner — are illegal and should be reported to police. The phone number to call to reach the police H.O.T. Team is (858) 4903850.

sound and look of the band they are honoring are still a special thing. Such is the case with Cheapest Trick, which manages to not only sound pretty close to the real thing, but its guitarist and drummer are dead ringers for the original musicians. The band plays a greatest-hits show, so there won’t be any surprises, but with a catalog of great songs like “Surrender” and “I Want You to Want Me,” no one will be complaining. • CHEAPEST TRICK: Saturday, Aug. 2 at TIO LEO’S, 5302 Napa St. 9 p.m. 21 and up.

Massive post-Fourth of July cleanup targets holiday debris in the beach communities Nearly 650 volunteers gathered at four popular beaches on July 5 to assist with the Surfrider Foundation San Diego County chapter’s annual post-Fourth of July “Morning After Mess” beach series. By midday, Surfrider volunteers had recovered 1,410 pounds of trash and 326 pounds of recyclable material that otherwise would have
been washed into the sea, where it would add to the critical pollution problem devastating the world’s oceans. Surfrider volunteers hosted four cleanups in collaboration with I Love a Clean San Diego and San Diego Coastkeeper on July 5 at the Ocean Beach Pier, Belmont Park in Mission Beach, Crystal Pier in Pacif-
ic Beach and the Oceanside Pier. These cleanup sites were chosen because of the high concentration of beachgoers and notorious reputations for post-Fourth of July trash. Few holidays generate more trash on San Diego County beaches than the Fourth of July. Much of this litter is made up of plastic, which exacerbates the pollution
