De Anza Cove settlement ends 35-year legal dispute with City

A WINNING FORMULA Take one part San Diego's legendary weather and several parts the color and excitement of Christmas, and you have the makings of this year's Pacific Beach Holiday Parade, held Dec. 13 up and down Grand Avenue and environs. Floats, marching bands, color guards, children's groups and crazy driving stunts marked the event – and the area's recent rains made the big day all the more worth waiting for.

WHAT'S INSIDE Some 12 approved bikeshare stations in Pacific Beach are scheduled for installation in the middle of next month, providing residents with an alternative to mainstream vehicle travel for trips that aren't that long and that merely require picking up a transport at one locale and dropping it off at another.

residents are seniors, pointing out that many left the park already prior to the final settlement. “It was very important to be able to fund those relocating, giving certainty, and finality, to a lot of these folks in their golden years,” Zamoyski said. In October, the De Anza Cove Homeowners Association voted to accept the City of San Diego’s terms for settling the case. City Council has approved the settlement. Both sides agreed to the terms of a Superior Court judgment on the amount and terms upon which the City should compensate the tenants. The City’s obligation to compensate the tenants had been established in 2005, and for the nine years since, the principal dispute centered on the amount the SEE COVE, Page 15

By DAVE SCHWAB Mission Bay High School students got the red carpet treatment Dec. 17 in honor of the 10,000th student to have taken part in the ACES after-school tutoring program. “We hit the 10,000th person yesterday (Dec. 16), so we’re celebrating that person today,” said Lisa McDonnell, San Diego Unified School District supervisor for ACES, the After-school Center for Excellence and Support. ACES offers helpful reference materials, access to computers, printers, and supplies, free and healthful snacks, college tutoring from SDSU and UCSD students, specialized help for CAHSEE, PSAT and SAT prep, college application counseling and mentor-

A 35-year legal dispute between the city and tenants of the De Anza Cove mobile-home park has been resolved, with tenants agreeing to voluntarily move out of the park within a year in return for relocation compensation averaging $77,000 per household — $22 million total. Peter Zamoyski of the law firm Tatro & Zamoyski, representing De Anza mobile-home park residents, commented on the settlement. “It was a fair settlement,” Zamoyski said. “Was it as much as we had hoped for? No. But overall, it’s enough to get them (residents) off to a new home and a new place to live and was done in a manner that the court deemed completely fair and reasonable.” Zamoyski noted many De Anza

A landlord who repeatedly allowed illegal marijuana dispensaries to operate from his San Diego properties will pay the City $250,000 as a civil penalty, with an additional civil penalty of $300,000 suspended by the Court so long as he complies with the terms of the stipulated judgment. John Nobel has been named in numerous actions by the City Attorney’s Office as it cracks down on unpermitted dispensaries. As part of a global stipulated court judgment of those cases, Nobel was assessed $550,000 in civil penalties, with $300,000 of that amount suspended, and was

ordered to pay the City for investigative costs of $8,000. The penalties include $80,000 of a $120,000 judgment that previously was awarded the City and that Nobel had appealed. Under the terms of the stipulated final judgment, Nobel may be forced to pay the $300,000 suspended penalty if any of his properties is used for any unlawful marijuana operations or for any use not permitted by the City. In addition, he must ensure that any remaining dispensaries vacate his properties, and he must remove their fixtures, effects and signage. Failure to

Mid-January will mark Pacific Beach bikeshare installation A dozen approved bikeshare stations in Pacific Beach are scheduled for installation in mid-January. “These stations will be activated as part of a rolling launch,” said Chris Biele, of MJE Marketing Services, which is handling publicity for DecoBike. DecoBike signed a 10-year contract in 2013 with the city of San Diego to create a citywide network of 180 bikeshare stations for shortterm rentals. “To date, 59 stations have been installed,” said Biele. “DecoBike would like to have all the stations in downtown and uptown installed before activating the system (about 75-80 stations). This will take until January.” Biele said DecoBike is planning to have a special kickoff event, a concert and a bike ride from Downtown

to Balboa Park, sometime after the first of the year. Biele added DecoBike has a website, decobike.com/sandiego, up and running (including an interactive station map) and that registration is under way. “The first 1,500 members to sign up will get a free bike helmet,” said Biele. DecoBike stations will be located in communities from Pacific Beach to San Ysidro, providing a robust network that will give the public a viable and environmentally friendly transportation choice. The convenience of being able to rent a bike at one location and drop it off at another encourages bicycling as a mode of travel rather than relying on cars. “Whether it’s commuting to work, running errands or simply

Trial set for suicide-by-cop gunman A man shot by police after he pointed a gun in Mission Bay Park will stand trial April 1, 2015 on two counts of exhibiting a weapon in the presence of officers after he waived his right to have a preliminary hearing on Dec. 12. Lance Marshall Tamyo and his attorney agreed that he would stand trial on the charges without requiring police officers to testify in a preliminary hearing about the Aug. 6 incident, in which Tamyo said he wanted to commit suicide by cop. Tamyo, 45, pleaded not guilty before a San Diego Superior Court judge, who then set the trial date. He remains free on $150,000 bond posted after he spent several months in jail after being released from a La

Jolla hospital for his gunshot wounds. On Aug. 6, Tamyo called 911 from his car, saying he was suicidal, had a gun and wanted to “commit suicide by cop.” Tamyo got out of his car and walked around a grassy area holding a gun. He allegedly pointed the gun at numerous officers and at an overhead police helicopter. He was shot at 12:10 p.m. near De Anza Cove. Officers, using shields, advanced with patrol cars driving on the grass until an officer removed Tamyo's gun nearby. Tamyo faces a maximum sentence of three years and eight months in prison if convicted. – Neal Putnam

Ask Ask The The Trust Trust & & Estate Estate Attorney Attorney Question:

SM

I cannot discuss the subject of estate or financial planning with my: Partner, Wife, Husband, or Parents, what can I do?

Information is very important when you plan a talk with your family member. You can set an appointment with the estate planning attorney to determine what is needed, the costs and the ramifications of no estate planning. This advice is specific to your assets and needs. Here are 3 scenarios: If your parents own a home worth $800,000 and have no Virginia Weber planning: at the second death the probate costs and fees would Laskowitz be $40,000 for this court procedure. If that amount of cash is Estate Attorney not available, the home will need to be sold. You have minor children and assets and no Will and Trust: There will be a guardianship set up in court and the judge will decide who will raise your children. At the time that the child reaches the age of 18, they will be in charge of 100% of their money. The home is still in the previous spouses name with your spouse: Without changing the title of the home and doing estate planning, the ex spouse will receive the home and you will have to leave your home when your spouse dies. If you cannot convince them to discuss it, bring them to my office and I will get them to do so.

enjoying a nice bike ride for exercise, automated bike sharing programs fulfill all those needs in a very efficient manner,” said DecoBike. “It’s convenient, easy to use and it’s ‘green’ transportation at its best.” Andy Hanshaw, executive director of San Diego County Bicycle Coalition, a nonprofit promoting bicycling regionwide, said the cycling community is excited about the arrival. “It’s already in Miami, New York City and Washington, D.C.,” said Hanshaw, pointing out bikeshare is “not a competing bike network” but a component of an overall transportation system. “It will encourage people to ride and, ultimately, help the local bike industry,” Hanshaw said, noting Bikeshare’s geared primarily toward short, 30-minute trips that will “fill transportation gaps for many people. I can see it used as a conve-

nience for people to get to local places and to work,” said Hanshaw. Hanshaw said bikeshare is being financed privately by Decobike, which is fronting start-up costs for the station-to-station network, while the city as a partner is invested in promoting the new cyclingsharing program. Many proposed bikeshare stations are near transit stops, which Hanshaw noted “is smart,” because he said it will allow people to complete the “first or last mile” of their commuter trip. With bikeshare, patrons access program bicycles via a network of bike sharing stations around the city. Bicycles can be checked out from any station and returned to any other station. Stations are solarpowered and automated. They will operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Each station will have a map indicating station locations.

By DAVE SCHWAB

Access to bicycles is available with either a membership key fob or a credit/debit card. Patrons can approach any station stocked with bicycles and select the bike number of their choosing. Once selected, they simply approach the bike dock and remove the bike when the LED light turns green, indicating the bike is unlocked. Different membership and rental options will be available. At least two membership options will be offered: “Standard,” with unlimited 30-minute check-outs, and “Deluxe,” with unlimited 60minute checkouts. Short-term rentals will include 30-minute, 60minute and 2-hour options. DecoBike is for riders ages 18 years and older. DecoBike does not provide helmets at stations. Helmets can be obtained from any bike shop or sporting goods store.

Casteel cited for work with air rescue unit The son of a Pacific Beach man was recently selected to receive the Air Rescue Association (ARA) Richard T. Kight award. Senior Master Sgt. Brandon Casteel distinguished himself as a Guardian Angel Operations Superintendent in the United Kingdom from July 1, 2013 to June 30, 2014. During this period, Casteel was vital to the United States Air Force in Europe’s buildup of Guardian Angel forces to perform combat search and rescue in support of personnel recovery operations. As a lead planner for U.S.-U.K. search and rescue exercises, Casteel integrated special operations and rescue forces into a five-platform scenario, strengthening coalition partnerships and refining personnel recovery techniques and procedures. Casteel also organized a highvisibility demonstration involving

Casteel was instrumental in preparing 15 mission-ready pararescuemen, providing the United States Africa Command Commander with rescue forces for six named operations. Jane’s International Defense Review selected him to highlight personnel recovery during Operation Enduring Freedom. Casteel is on active duty in New England. He and his wife Conchita have two daughters and a son. Gary, Casteel’s father, lives in Pacific Beach. The younger Casteel graduated from Spring Valley's Monte Vista High School in 1990. He received a master's degree in criminal justice from Excelsior College in 2014. The ARA is an organization of some 2,500 dedicated retired and active-duty veterans whose goal is to keep alive the spirit of air rescue. The ARA web address is home.roadrunner.com/~airrescu e/. The Kight Trophy is presented annually by the ARA to an activeduty or reserve-component rescueman or woman who has made outstanding contributions to the Air Force’s search and rescue mission. The winner is selected by an Air Force board. Kight was the first commander of the Air Rescue Service in 1946 and is considered the “Father of Air Rescue.” He coined the motto “These Things We Do That Others May Live” and originated this award.

Prelim delayed in CHP vehicle theft case A preliminary hearing was delayed Dec. 17 until Jan. 6 for a woman charged with stealing a California Highway Patrol vehicle in Mission Bay while handcuffed. She drove off with the vehicle and crashed into two cars, causing a major response from several law enforcement agencies on Nov. 6. Attorneys agreed to delay the hearing for Casaundra Rose Lane, 27, because both sides wanted more time to study new police reports,. Lane has pleaded not guilty to theft of an emergency vehicle, felony evasion of police, hit and run and auto theft. Because the car contained a rifle, she was also charged with being a felon in possession of a firearm and ammunition. The incident started after a CHP

officer found that a stolen vehicle had collided with street signs in Mission Bay. Lane was placed in the back seat of a CHP patrol vehicle, but the vehicle did not have bars between the front and back seats, said prosecutor Michael Runyon. The handcuffed Lane somehow drove off in the vehicle. The CHP officer fired shots as she drove off. Runyon said she drove more than 70 miles an hour on Interstate 5 to state Route 163 and then to Interstate 8 until she struck two vehicles in Mission Valley. The car was disabled, and Lane was arrested. Lane, who has a prior felony drug conviction, remains in the Las Colinas Women’s Detention Facility on $255,000 bail. – Neal Putnam

Guilty plea entered in tire-slash case A panhandler who slashed a tire of a motorist on Garnet Avenue has pleaded guilty to a felony charge of carrying a concealed dagger in public. Rex Wayne Manley will be sentenced Jan. 7 in San Diego Superior Court and faces up to a year in jail, according to court records. He pleaded guilty before Judge Michael Smyth on Dec. 8. The maximum sentence is three years. Manley, 48, signed a statement of agreement that his lawyer wrote on a court form, which read, “I unlawfully possessed a dirk or dagger that was concealed on my person.” Nicole Sours Larson wrote about the Sept. 16 incident in the Beach & Bay Press of Oct. 16. Her story says she ignored a panhandler trying to attract attention while holding a sign and flyers as she waited to turn

from Garnet Avenue onto East Mission Bay Drive. Larson wrote that she saw the man kneeling by her front left tire, jabbing at it, before he walked away. Another motorist signaled her to check her tire, which was flattened. Larson wrote she posted an account of what happened on Nextdoor.com. KGTV Ch. 10 reporter and Pacific Beach resident Dan Haggerty read it and then interviewed Larson. He later saw the panhandler and contacted police. Manley was arrested and remains in the central jail without bail. A previous misdemeanor case of contributing to the delinquency of a minor and possession of drug paraphernalia will be reviewed at his sentencing. – Neal Putnam

Free report reveals secrets smart home sellers use to preserve their equity When you decide to sell your home, setting your asking price is one of the most important decisions you will ever make. Depending on how a buyer is made aware of your home, price is often the first thing he or she sees, and many homes are discarded by prospective buyers as not being in the appropriate price range. Your asking price is often your home’s “first impression,” and if you want to realize the most money you can for your home, it’s imperative that you make a good first impression. This is not as easy as it sounds, and pricing strategy should not be taken lightly. Pricing too high can be as costly to a homeseller as pricing too low. A

recent study, which compiles 10 years of industry research, has resulted in a new special report entitled “Homesellers: How to Get the Price You Want (and Need).” This report will help you understand pricing strategy from three different angles.

ship for life, college and career. “We started the ACES program here about 1½ years ago in my classroom with a bunch of volunteer teachers,” said Ron Lancia, ACES program coordinator. “We did it to have a safe, positive place for kids to go every day and interact with their teachers on a different level than they do in the classroom. These kinds of relationships, that’s when the real tutoring and enrichment begins.” Tyrese Reed, the 10,000th ACES participant, said he’s been involved in the program since its start. “I was a freshman, and I had eight classes and it’s kind of hard to balance,” he said about his motivation for participating. “So I came to ACES, and the teachers helped me with everything, really gave me the support system that I needed. Ever since, I’ve been coming here, because I get help — and the resources — for any subject that I need.” Harmony Ordaz agreed that the after-school tutoring program has really been her ace in the hole. “The teachers are really supportive, and they always help you

no matter what,” she said. Asked what subject she needed help in, Ordaz replied, “Calculus. It’s a very rigorous course.” Mission Bay High School principal Ernest Remillard said it’s amazing how far the ACES program has come in less than two years. “It’s been fully supported schoolwide,” Remillard said of the program. “They were running 60 to 80 kids last year, and it can accommodate about 120 students, though 100 is a nice number.” Asked if ACES could be a prototype for other schools in SDUSD, Remillard replied, “We definitely want it to be a model.” The principal added that teachers in the program started out volunteering their time but are now being paid through school grant funding. Currently, about 100 students a day are working at ACES under the direction of a staff of teachers from all content areas. The program’s mantra is “Every student, every time,” which refers to the program’s commitment to engage with every one of the 100-plus students who enters ACES after school to help him and her continue his and her education every single day. ACES is strictly voluntary and is designed after the metaphorical

four suits from a deck of cards. The ace of hearts represents a holistic approach to mentoring, providing access to an array of services to benefit social and emotional growth. The ace of clubs represents a club-community effect, providing a consistent place for students to gather to further their education. The ace of diamonds represents a balanced approach to English/history, math/science, foreign language/fine arts and special populations such as international baccalaureate, English learner or special education students. The ace of spades represents digging deeper through access to one-on-one instruction with expert teachers. Funding is made possible by the 21st Century Community Learning Center (CCLC) After School Safety and Enrichment for Teens (ASSETs) grant. The ASSETs grant is a federal grant adminisered by the state of California that provides five years of funding to establish or expand before- and after-school programs that provide disadvantaged students with more academic enrichment opportunities and supportive services to help the students meet several state and local standards in core content areas.

abide by the stipulated court judgment may also result in a contempt of court citation. The penalty is the largest attained by the City Attorney’s Office since it began using civil enforcement action against dispensaries that operate in violation of City zoning regulations. The City Attorney’s Office has closed down more than 200 dispensaries in the past four years. In that time, Nobel-owned properties in Pacific Beach, the Midway district and North Park were leased to dispensary operators despite the fact that they were not allowed under zoning laws. Four dispensaries operated from a building on Rosecrans Street that is 600 feet from an elementary school, a violation of state law. When an illegal dispensary case is referred to the City Attorney’s Office by the City’s code enforcement division, a court order to close the dispensary is usually obtained within 30 days. The City Attorney’s Office can later seek permanent injunctions and penalties against the property owners and dispensary operators.

In cases such as this, where property owners continue to violate the law despite court injunctions, the City often seeks the maximum permissible civil penalties. To date, City Attorney’s Office enforcement actions have resulted in court awards of more than $1.1 million in civil penalties. “This case underscores that landlords will be held accountable for renting to illegal marijuana dispensaries,” City Attorney Jan Goldsmith said. “There is a process in place for legally zoned dispensaries and that process should be followed.” Nobel was not the sole defendant in any of the 12 cases, as all complaints also named Mahin Nobel. Some also named co-owners Parviz Hakakha and Judith Hakakha. Others named co-owners David Abeles and Melody Abeles. The settlement resolves cases against the following dispensaries in Pacific Beach and the Midway district (principal defendants in parentheses): · San Diego Organic Wellness, 1150 Garnet Ave. (John Nobel, Mahin Nobel); · Fresh Alternative Consulting, Inc., 3045 Rosecrans St., #208

UPSES installs solar power at Portuguese Hall The United Portuguese S.E.S., Inc. has installed a solar-energy system at the Portuguese Hall, located at 2818 Avenida de Portugal. “The ever-rising cost of energy,” S.E.S. president Carl Silva said, “caused the hall management to look at installing a solar energy solution as a means towards less dependency on the energy being provided.” The system consists of 65 solar panels placed on the upper roof of the building. It is designed to provide a savings of nearly $12,000 in the first year from a current

annual energy cost of $28,000. “Savings realized from lower energy cost will allow revenues to be used towards the increasing costs of maintenance of the Hall and provide more services to the community,” Silva said. The contractor is Baker Electric, Inc., of Escondido. Financing help in the form of neighborhood grants was obtained from both the County and City of San Diego. A rebate of $15,000 has been approved by the California Solar Initiative.

Community Wildlife photographer Mangelsen has seen it all; now you can too By DAVE SCHWAB He's taken some four million photographs of animals in their natural states – and wildlife photographer Thomas Mangelsen’s new book, “The Last Great Wild Places,” is a compendium of the finest work from one of the most prolific and award-winning nature photographers of our time. “It’s a 40-year retrospective,”

said Mangelsen, 69, who was in town recently at his Images of Nature Gallery at 7916 Girard Ave., one of eight Mangelsen galleries nationwide. “It includes all my classic images from the beginning to very recently.” The Grand Island, Neb.-born photographer, the son of a 5-anddime store owner, grew up on the

American plains hunting and observing wildlife. His hands-on approach in part explains his uncanny ability to capture candid wildlife photographs. “I rely heavily on my experience to put me in the right place at the right time and watch for the right moment,” he said. Like the picture on Eastern Africa's Serengeti Plain of a pride of lions sauntering toward him on a dirt road. “I was in a Land Rover early in the morning, and lions, 20 or 30 of all different age groups, were coming out of the marsh towards the road,” he said. “I realized this was kind of a cool shoot because you could see all their legs coming right at us, the whole man-versus-lion thing.” Noting he didn’t get his first camera until he was 23 (extremely late for a photographer), Mangelsen added his avocation “just started out as fun and grew into a profession.” He's captured rare moments and vast panoramas during photographic shoots on all seven continents, from shots of Arctic polar bears to images from the deep jungles of South America to pictures of the tigers of India to shots revealing the diversity of wildlife in the American West. Mangelsen talked about his art, wildlife conservation, climate change and future destinations, saying there’s a method to his madness in choosing locales. “I try to choose new places every year and go back to old haunts I’ve become familiar with and fell in love with, like the Serengeti,” he said, adding he’ll be returning to the Serengeti in early 2015. “The more you go back to a place, the better you know it,” said Mangelsen, adding he also returns to spots he feels have great potential for getting shots he missed or would like to get. “The Earth is a big place. I’ll never live long enough to get to all of my bucket list,” he said, adding, “It keeps getting bigger.” But Mangelsen’s interest in wildlife extends well beyond photography. He’s become a passionate conservationist who’s befriended others campaigning for preservation of wildlife and their habitats, like Jane Goodall, who wrote a foreword to his new book. “Twenty-five thousand elephants a year are being poached, mostly for trinkets,” Mangelsen said, adding the same fate is befalling a thousand or more rhinoceri a year, slain for their horns, which are purported to have aphrodisiac qualities. Mangelsen pooh-pooh'd this as “just a stupid myth.” SEE PHOTOG, Page 12

Navy's pipeline plan invites many emergencies The Navy has installed a state-of-the-art fuel storage facility and is preparing a fuel pier to be installed after demolition of the 1950s facility, yet they intend to apply a Band-aid fix and cherry-pick areas of the subject pipeline to repair. This vintage fuel pipeline is the glue that holds the entire facility together. The Navy also proposes to relocate portions of the vintage fuel pipeline along the Rosecrans traffic corridor in Point Loma (the backbone of the Peninsula traffic flow) This does not make economic or operational sense, as it will cause gridlock and catastrophic public safety risks as well as possible structural failures to other vintage service piping, substandard, deteriorating roads, outdated traffic signals and signs designed decades ago for fewer vehicles, all against a background of construction in earthquake country. Additionally, the following existing conditions on the Peninsula only highlights that

TUESDAY · DECEMBER 23, 2014 BEACH & BAY PRESS

Santa works his magic in 24 hours, eh? Humbug!

He's been called everything from Sinterklaas, the Dutch handle for “St. Nicholas,” to Black Peter, whose job it is to whup up on naughty kids no matter the time of year – but you and I and God know him as Santa Claus, the year's glad-hander in chief, who stokes his multi-trillion-dollar empire with nothing less innocuous than eight arthritic reindeer and a flaming red parka he prolly got on special. He's aged fairly well since the 1880s, when the fabled Christmas present story made him the central figure of the secular Western world. His solid reputation precedes him from his days as the bona fide St. Nicholas, an ancient Greek bishop who used to put little presents in people's shoes and who paid young ladies' dowries to save them from the world's oldest profession (i.e., pillowfighting). But the real hooker here is the phonybaloney himself, who royally punks the world every 25th of December with his sleight of hand on land, sea and air. He's sworn his legion of yes-men to secrecy, lining his legacy with the fruits of their labor as they stand at the back of the bus like so many – well – passengers. I beseech you: Don't blame the messenger for what you're about to read, but do embrace his message in the true spirit of the season. Think NASA put one over on the country when it staged those bogus Apollo moonwalks? You ain't heard nothin' yet. Universe Today says the earth takes 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4.1 seconds to complete one axial rotation. That's up a mite from, say, 600,000 years ago, when our day was thought to be about 22 hours long, but it's still nowhere near the time lard-butt needs to

make his rounds. The current day lasts 87,154.1 seconds – and if fatso stops for one of those seconds at each house, he's still only hit that many homes. Assuming each household includes four members, he's parceled his booty to 348,616.4 people, roughly the population of Santa Ana. Given a global population flirting with 7.3 billion, it would take him about 277 days, as opposed to the fabled 24 hours, to complete his passes of one house per second everywhere in the world. Figures don't lie, peeps. While we're at it, let's take a serious gander at that measly excuse for a sleigh, which looks suspiciously like a claw-foot bathtub with a double-wide seat. Claw-foot tubs are made of cast iron and can tip the scales at 300 pounds – couple that with Santa's weight (which the North American Aerospace Defense Command estimates on its website at 275) and the weight of 7.3 billion gifts (assuming each weighs four pounds), and we're talking a little over 14 million tons of payload, which would require two Space Shuttle rockets to achieve escape velocity, or 25,000 miles an hour. True, achieving this speed would leave FatFat the Water Rat and his cargo weightless, which is a partial explanation for his maneuverability – but to get him into space, his eight tiny reindeer would have to generate a force that translates to 3,125 miles an hour apiece. At a paltry 425 pounds each, the guys don't stand a chance in hell getting airborne. Even if they did, breathable air runs out at 65,000 feet – after that, they're instant reindeer steak, with Rudolph's nose the appetizer. I swear: It's not me. It's the physics of the thing.

BY MARTIN JONES WESTLIN

And the elves? Don't even get me started. Northpole.com says that Santa contracts an “unlimited” number of helpers, as it takes a lot of upkeep to prepare for the year's big day. What nobody ever tells you is that, unlike the South Pole (which sits on a continental land mass), the North Pole is one big glob of sea ice, whose shift properties make it nearly impossible to build any kind of station on, let alone one with an “unlimited” cast of characters. The Russians established a weather base there in 2002, and it's generally open for a few weeks in the spring – but with an annual mean temperature of 40, the pole is almost another planet, and the Russians would be hard-pressed to report another class of being beyond the polar bear and her kids. (Full disclosure: Shakespeare says elves are as big as human beings. Assuming that's true, Fatty's charges would be toast before they'd be missed, as humans die long before they literally freeze.) Baseball's “Shoeless” Joe Jackson, who after 1919 crashed and burned in a World Series betting scandal. Alan Freed, the man who coined the term “rock and roll” in the 1950s and was later shamed in a payola controversy. Milli Vanilli. the pop group whose 1990 Emmy was withdrawn following a falsifying of their voices on an album. And, of course, the Apollo moon-walk fakes. Yes, these are among the opprobria that have shaken this nation to its

core over its long and roily history – but the Santa Claus hoax assumes otherworldy implications, as it involves humanity itself. No amount of money, time or holiday cheer weighs in the conversation. In one swoop, and year after year, the planet as we know it is irrevocably doomed. The blame lays squarely at the feet of its seasonal harbinger of faith, hope and trust – and if you listen closely, you can hear his maniacal screed pepper the interminable, weightless irony. God bless us, every one. Seriously. San Diego Community Newspaper Group has expended considerable talent and treasure in the compilation of this story, and its staff and management trust that its readers will take it for the public service it is. The company strongly cautions that this piece contains pointed refutations of a legend central to the world's sense of itself. It thus disclaims responsibility for possible repercussions that might totally mess with your kid's head for, like, a really long time.

REMEMBERWHEN? >> REMEMBER WHEN there was a parade in Pacific Beach that went up Jewell Street? Me neither. Jim McCleary took this photo, I believe around 1963. Mostly I’m sharing it because it’s the only photo I’ve seen of DeFalco’s, precursor of today’s Von’s.

Global warming is something Mangelsen has observed firsthand. “I’ve seen city-block-long glaciers in Antarctica that are half the size they were five years ago,” he said, adding one of his favorite photographic subjects – polar bears – are disappearing from much of their current habitat in the Arctic because ice is disappearing. “They (bears) have to have ice to hunt seals who haul out, who are 90 percent of their diet,” Mangelsen said. “If the ice is gone, seals are gone, the polar bears are gone. It’s very simple.” Speaking of polar bears, Mangelsen spoke of a wildlife shoot he was on with the late Spence

Wilson, who operated the downtown theater The Cove, which many La Jollans of today remember. “Spence saved our lives,” he concluded, noting Wilson’s observational skills as he stood watch with the Navy for enemy subs during World War II. “I was with a National Geographic crew photographing a polar bear mother and her cubs, and a whiteout snowstorm just came up out of nowhere,” Mangelsen said. “I didn’t see them. Spence did and waived his arms (to warn us). There was a polar bear coming, stalking us very intently, and we grabbed our gear and pulled the (truck) ladder up just before the polar bear got there.” Asked when — or even if — he’ll retire, Mangelsen, who lives near Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming,

Thomas Mangelsen is a passionate conservationist whose friend Jane Goodall wrote the foreword to his book. PHOTO BY DAVE SCHWAB

answered, “Just when I die,” adding, “I’d like to die in the field.” To order Mangelsen’s new book, or for more information, visit www.mangelsen.com.

City was required to pay. The legal dispute, which began with a City Attorney’s opinion in 1978, spanned 19 City Councils and eight mayors. With the close of this chapter, the property can return to recreational, commercial and educational uses, as intended by state law, said City Attorney Jan Goldsmith. “Mission Bay was never intended to be a mobile-home park,” Goldsmith said. “It is an active and accessible public park -- the world’s largest water park – and a place for recreation and tourism, for paddle-boarding and picnics. This settlement fairly compensates the tenants who will be displaced, but most importantly, it returns to San Diego 76 waterfront acres we

Tenant compensation will be determined by a combination of factors. In cases where the coach can be physically relocated, the tenant will receive an allowance based on the coach’s size plus $1,660 to defray additional costs. Where it is not feasible to relocate the coach, the tenant will receive a $1,660 moving allowance plus the rent differential for the first four years. Tenants who do not own their coach will receive a $1,660 moving allowance plus an amount equal to two months’ rent for a comparably sized apartment. The property beneath the mobile homes was originally owned by the State of California,

which in 1945 granted it to the City of San Diego as a “tidelands trust” to be used solely for educational, commercial and recreational purposes, to include parks, playgrounds and facilities. Residential uses were not permitted by the terms of the grant. When the City granted a 50year ground lease to a master tenant in 1953, that tenant agreed to use the property exclusively for “a tourist and trailer park,” language that contemplated camper-trailers, not permanent housing. However, De Anza Park soon evolved into a mobile-home park with longterm residents. In 1978, the City Attorney’s Office issued a legal opinion stating that De Anza Park “may be in violation of the tidelands trust [of 1945]” because of its residential users. In 1980, the State Lands

Commission agreed that “residential use of these lands is not a public use,” setting the stage for eviction. The tenants were given a reprieve in 1981 when the state Legislature, in an action that required City concurrence, allowed them to continue living on Mission Bay until the 50-year ground lease expired in 2003. On August 27, 1982, the tenants were notified of an eviction date of Nov. 23, 2003. Nonetheless, the residents did not leave. Instead, they sued, winning a court injunction to prevent the City from enforcing the 1982

eviction notice. Although the City argued that it was not required to compensate the tenants for relocation, the court’s ruling in 2005 was to the contrary. This year, the court set forth the amount and terms of payment. Tenants have 12 months to vacate the park. Future uses of the property will be decided by City Council. The City, however, is bound by the terms of the trust and may only use the property for educational, commercial and recreational purposes, to include parks, playgrounds and facilities.
