New laws on minimum wage, domestic abuse, and police chokeholds in effect By DAVE SCHWAB | The Beacon

New laws on the books in California in 2021 address everything from COVID-19 guidelines, to racial profiling and systemic racism to a minimum wage hike, price gouging, property taxes, domestic abuse and fire protection. Gov. Gavin Newsom signed only 372 new laws in pandemic-plagued 2020, the fewest since 1967. Here are a few of those laws and what they do: * California’s minimum wage rose to $14 an hour for large companies, with pay rising to $13 in workplaces with 25 or fewer employees. * Beginning in April, hospitals must maintain at least a threemonth stockpile of personal protective equipment for their workers or face a fine of up to $25,000 per violation. * Youth football leagues cannot hold more than two practices a week, each lasting no longer than half an hour. An emergency medical official must be present at games, and someone to evaluate injuries must attend practices. * The retail sale of all dogs, cats and rabbits is no longer allowed. Shelter or rescue groups can offer pets for adoption in pet stores, as long as the store isn’t paid to

display the animals. * Employers must provide written notice within 24 hours to workers who might have been exposed to someone with COVID-19, and could face fines for violations. A second law has expanded workers’ compensation help for those who might have contracted the virus on the job. * Skilled nursing facilities must report COVID-19 deaths to public health authorities within 24 hours. * California laws against price gouging now cover sellers who only begin selling a product after an emergency is declared. The law was inspired by those during the pandemic who bought supplies in bulk and then sold them for much higher amounts. * Private insurance companies must now fully cover all medically necessary mental health and substance abuse disorder treatments under the same terms as other medical conditions. * Foreclosed homes can’t be bundled together for sale to a single buyer, as many were during the Great Recession, and tenant or other housing advocacy groups have 45 days to offer a higher price. * California homeowners who are 55 or older can get a property tax break when moving to a new home under a voter-approved law

that blends the taxable value of the old home with that of the new, more expensive home. *A California law that allows a victim of domestic abuse or sexual assault to get out of a housing lease early now includes family members of murder victims and other violent crimes. * Homeowners in high fire hazard areas must create a five-foot “ember resistant zone” surrounding their home and outdoor decks, with guidelines from state officials phased in over the next two years. * Manufacturers of cleaning products sold in the state, including air deodorizers, polishers and floor cleaners, must list all ingredients on labels. * California’s juvenile justice correction centers will stop taking new inmates on July 1 as the state begins to transition responsibility for young offenders to individual counties. * A sentence of probation for most misdemeanors will be limited to a maximum of one year, and probation for a felony will be limited to two years. * Police officers can no longer use chokeholds or any restraint that compresses a person’s carotid arteries. * California’s attorney general must investigate when an officer-involved shooting results in

the death of an unarmed person. * Former prisoners who worked as firefighters through a prison fire camp can petition to have their records expunged and parole waived. * Independent contractors who work for app-based companies such as Uber, Lyft and DoorDash are now eligible for a limited number of healthcare and other workplace benefits, including a guaranteed wage for time spent behind the wheel. * California becomes the first state in the nation to impose

regulations on student loan servicers similar to those for credit cards or mortgages. The law requires companies to inform borrowers about programs that can lower monthly payments or offer debt forgiveness, and it allows consumer lawsuits against companies that don’t comply. * Publicly held corporations — those with shares bought and sold on a stock exchange — that are primarily based in California must SEE LAWS, Page 6

Chris Brisco was well-known to kids and parents throughout the Peninsula area. He ran clinics and summer camps for youngsters at area recreation centers and schools. In addition, he was head varsity basketball for eight seasons and an assistant football coach at Point Loma High School. Brisco died Jan. 16 of an apparent heart attack at the age of 57. During his eight years as head basketball coach at PLHS he compiled a record of 102-103. In Central League play his teams were 56-42, capped by a 12-0 first place finish in 2012-13. Brisco worked as a P.E. teacher at Patrick Henry High School but devoted his life to youth on the Peninsula.

Chris Brisco

He worked with boys and girls in the tee ball, soccer and basketball recreation program at Cabrillo Recreation Center and taught P.E. at Sacred Heart Academy in Ocean Beach. Brisco was a popular assistant football coach for the Pointers, teaching many

freshmen and junior varsity players. "Chris was a loyal, genuine and fun-loving friend," said Mike Hastings, PLHS head varsity football coach during Brisco's time with the team. "His smile would make me smile. He was a transformational coach for thousands of kids during his lifetime. I enjoyed coaching with him for many years and his fun and energetic (public address) announcing of our football games will always be remembered. Rest in peace, my friend." Brisco remained close to the family of Jamal Agnew, a famed Pointer player now a member of the Detroit Lions of the NFL. "You will be missed by family and friends," said Jamal's father Jerome. "You have touched so many lives with your warmth, smile and unconditional brotherly love."

Ask The Trust & Estate Attorney Question:

How does Proposition 19 change our current law?

Prop 19 was passed in November 2020 by California voters and will go into effect on February 16, 2021. Prop 19 changes our current laws regarding parent to child transfers that allow a child to keep their parent’s low property tax basis. Current law allows a parent, or grandparent if the grandchild’s parents have Shannon O’Neill Jones predeceased them, to transfer their primary residence plus a million dollars of factored base year value of other properties to their child (or grandchild if the grandparent is the transferor). Prop 19 restricts the current law to only allow for a transfer of a parent’s primary residence where the child then resides in the property as their primary residence within one year of the transfer. The new law also only allows for transfers of primary residences up to $1million in value. If the residence is valued at over $1million, there will be a partial reassessment of the property to its current fair market value.

Answer:

Contact an estate planning or real estate attorney for guidance on how Prop 19 may affect your real property.

Pointer parents providing Point Loma High seniors with moments, memories By SCOTT HOPKINS | The Beacon

When parents of PLHS Class of 2021 students helped as Class of 2020 parents staged the wildly popular graduation parade last June on Shelter Island, they decided to create some special experiences for their students who have now been homebound for half of their senior year. Class of 2021 students has not been together since the day last March when schools were shut down in the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic. And, despite recent vaccine developments, they may not be together on campus their entire senior year. Under the leadership of Jen Doud and Beth Roach, a group of more than 30 parents has organized "Senior Special" events

to combat the apathy and disappointment of Class of '21 members on the 21st of each month. At each event seniors drive, walk, or bicycle to Plumosa Park in the 2600 block of Chatsworth Boulevard to meet classmates and parents who have arranged with local merchants to offer each a goodie bag. Donations have included Crumble (gourmet cookies), Chick-Fil-A, Ike's (sub sandwiches), Jensen's (smart water), Gourmet Bagger sandwiches, and Pizza Nova. The parent group is excited about a small-plant giveaway in April for Earth Day sponsored by a local nursery. In May, the theme will be "Dads Love Grads" with students' fathers on hand to greet class members. January, February, and March are still in planning and parents are hoping

additional businesses become involved. It is not known if a traditional (the 96th) commencement ceremony in the PLHS stadium will be possible, so the committee is applying for a permit from the San Diego Unified Port District to stage another graduation parade like last year's which proved an overwhelming success. Current seniors have missed everything they've waited to experience, Doud noted, including Homecoming, classroom interaction, athletics, campus clubs and organizations, marching band, orchestra, drama, and likely "Senior Fest" the last day of school and "Grad Night" at Disneyland. Interested sponsors, those with ideas or who want to help may contact Doud at 619-894-1416 or jen_doud@hotmail.com.

RAISING FUNDS FOR POINT LOMA SPORTS CLUB In November 2012, Gary Rubin opened the doors to his brandnew gym, Point Loma Sports Club. Hoping to make this club more than just a gym, he invested much of his time getting to know his members and helping people meet their fitness and personal goals. By 2019, with the help of his daughter Jessica, membership at the Sports Club had grown and the business was on a good track. In late 2019, Rubin was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. In March 2020, COVID-19 forced the shut-down of the gym. When gyms were allowed to re-open, Point Loma Sports Club was one of the first gyms in San Diego to open an outdoor facility. With Rubin’s declining health, Jessica, 24, took charge and faced the challenge of managing the business and the outdoor gym. On Nov. 9, Rubin lost his battle with cancer. Now Jessica is in charge of running this gym and

is more committed than ever to keep the doors open. Another challenge has developed for Jessica, as a result of the storms that hit San Diego this past weekend. The Sports Club’s outdoor tent collapsed as a result of the winds and the fitness equipment was damaged. Enduring many excessive costs in equipment, labor, rent, and everything in between, Point Loma Sports Club is struggling and is seeking the support of the community. The Larry Himmel Neighborhood Foundation has set up a page at larryhimmelfoundation.org/helping-plsc, with all money raised going back to Point Loma Sports Club. The foundation is pledging $3,000 and hoping to raise $10,000 to help a neighbor in need.

chair Cathy Kenton, who is one of 19 members on the Sports Arena Revitalization Community Advisory Board, noted the newly formed board meets on the first Wednesday of every other month. “It’s a very diverse group,” said Kenton about the newly formed advisory board, which last met on Dec. 2, and will meet next for the first time this year on Feb. 3. The broad-based advisory board is comprised of merchants, military, residents, and transportation officials. In August, a City selection committee picked a proposal by Brookfield Properties and ASM Global to redevelop the former Midway District Sports Arena property. Brookfield and ASM plan to transform the 48-acre site into a vibrant community with public parks, new homes, office space, and a modern entertainment venue generating approximately 3,200 jobs and an annual economic impact of more than $300 million.

FRIDAY · January 29, 2021 THE PENINSULA BEACON

By LYNN REASER | The Beacon

The coronavirus continues to pummel San Diego’s residents and its economy. As vaccines slowly move through the County, how much scarring will remain? How fast will confidence and spending resume? How quickly will businesses respond by hiring back former or new workers?

THE ECONOMIC TOLL OF 2020

San Diego’s economy ended 2020 on a somber note. After a few months of improvement, companies cut payrolls again in December and the jobless rate jumped. For the year as a whole, the region lost more than 100,000 jobs. This widely surpassed the 60,000 jobs lost during 2009 at the height of the last recession. The unemployment rate stands at 8.0% compared with close to 3.0% just a year ago. Many businesses have struggled to survive. Typically, 20% of new businesses fail in their first year and 50% in their fifth year of operation. The strains from “stop-start” operations as infection rates waxed and waned probably accelerated these failure rates considerably. For new businesses just starting in 2019, some 40% of them could have failed in 2020 as they ran out of cash. Even established firms closed as owners decided that it was finally time to shut down and retire.

BRIGHT SPOTS

Even as firms have failed, new ones are being formed. In California, 2020 saw new business applications up by 42% at year-end. The region’s economy is slowly clawing its way back. As of year-end, four major sectors had reached employment levels equal or greater than their pre-pandemic totals: construction, business and professional services, retailing (boosted by e-commerce), and utilities. Housing is booming, spurred by low mortgage rates and people wanting more space. Home prices ended the year up 12% relative to a year ago. Stocks soared in 2020,

‘Housing is booming, spurred by low mortgage rates and people wanting more space.’ with the S&P 500 Index ending the year up 16%. Congress passed more COVID relief in December, raising unemployment benefits and sending out $600 checks to most adults. Mayor Todd Gloria has announced the receipt of $42 million of federal funding for the purpose of rent relief.

WHAT TO EXPECT IN 2021

Bouts of optimism and pessimism will define the next several months as San Diegans struggle to emerge from the pandemic‘s scourge. Following are questions and answers to some of the key issues facing us. - How much further will the economy suffer? Vaccination rates need to be accelerated well beyond one million per day or it will take until mid-22 before “herd immunity” can be restored. In the meantime, new vaccine-resistant mutations of the virus could appear. Without a major pickup in San Diego’s vaccine rollouts, the economy will remain substantially shuttered. The first quarter could see further job losses and the second quarter looks like it will at least begin with considerable weakness. - How will President Biden’s economic policies affect the outlook? President Biden wants to provide urgent additional stimulus, proposing an additional spending total of $1.9 trillion. While Congress may not approve full funding, it may pass more than half of the total. Another $1,400 of direct individual payments, more help for the unemployed, and some additional assistance for state and local governments are likely to be included. While some of this money will go into savings accounts, the amount spent will help backstop parts of the region’s economy that are still operating. - Restaurants, hotels, and entertainment venues reopening? Economic lockdowns have slashed more than one-quarter

of payrolls in San Diego’s leisure and hospitality industry. The toll has been severe when you realize that the industry employs nearly one of every seven of the region’s workers. While restaurants recently saw operating rules relaxed, a broad reopening of the entertainment industry is likely to wait until the second half of 2021 or when approximately 75% of the population has been vaccinated. - How will consumers and businesses respond? After more than a year spent primarily in home-confinement, consumers will be eager to return to their pre-pandemic lives. They may retain some of their new habits by working only part-time at the office and continuing their streaming subscriptions. Many may have to start paying for student loans, rent, or mortgages where various forbearance programs have been in effect. The release of pent-up demand will dominate, however, as consumers flock to restaurants, entertainment venues, and even shopping malls. Confidence over a return to “normal” will soar, accompanied by a rebound in spending. Businesses will need to ramp up hiring to meet the resurgence in demand. Firms may initially rely on temporary or part-time workers until they can assess the sustainability of new sales levels. As the economy continues to heal, many of these jobs will turn into full-time positions.

“In order to protect San Diego businesses and their employees that have sacrificed so much during the pandemic, it is necessary to temporarily restrict the fees imposed by third party food delivery companies,” said Gloria. “Capping the per-order fees will ease the financial burden on struggling businesses in our community, will keep food delivery options accessible to consumers, and is an important step to protecting the livelihoods of our neighbors.” Last week, Gloria received a request from Council President Pro Tem Stephen Whitburn along with Councilmembers Marni von Wilpert and Raul Campillo

THE BOTTOM LINE

In 2020, the ability to contain infection rates determined the course of the economy. In 2021, vaccination rate speeds hold the key to a vigorous and sustainable economic recovery. Lynn Reaser, Ph.D., CBE, is chief economist at Fermanian Business & Economic Institute at Point Loma Nazarene University.

Mayor signs executive order capping third-party food delivery fees To help lessen the drastic economic impact of COVID-19 on the restaurant industry, Mayor Todd Gloria signed an executive order on Jan. 25 that will cap the fees third-party delivery apps charge to local businesses. Some of the third-party companies have imposed commissions, fees, and service charges of 30% or more or more to restaurants creating an economic challenge for some small businesses throughout the City of San Diego. The executive order places a 15% delivery fee cap and limits total fees at 18% for third-party delivery apps. The order goes into effect at 11:59 p.m. on Jan. 25.

requesting he take executive action to enact a temporary fee cap on third-party delivery apps operating in the City of San Diego. “Restaurants are part of the fabric of our neighborhoods, and many are at risk of closure,” Whitburn said. “I applaud Mayor Gloria’s quick response to provide this relief, which will help save small businesses and local jobs. Today’s action shows what we can accomplish when we work together for our communities.” While restaurants have pivoted their business models to adapt to curbside pickup and delivery.

The shrimp enchilada at Hugo’s Cocina.

By JUDI CURRY | The Beacon

There have been so many changes to restaurants since March of 2020. Many of my favorites are closed; many of them are restricted only to take-out; some are defying the new rules and serving anyway. I have difficulty going into a place that is knowingly defying the rules for COVID safety. I understand that if they do not make money they will lose everything.

JUDI CURRY/PENINSULA BEACON

But I also understand that losing a life is more important to me than eating indoors in a restaurant that should have been closed. Therefore, any review that I may do is contingent on that restaurant following the safety rules of COVID. Hugo’s has always been one of my favorite restaurants – even when it was Rancho’s. I wondered if during the shutdown and reopening and shutting down

again if the quality at Hugo’s had changed. I am so happy to report that the food was as good as usual; no skimping of ingredients, and I didn’t feel price gouged. I ordered two plates – a shrimp enchilada ($6.95ф) and a shiitake taco ($5.50). Both of these items were ordered ala carte. The enchilada was huge, and I counted nine good-sized shrimp inside the tortilla. The sauce was thick and tasty, and the accompanying lettuce gave it an extra crunch. The taco was also huge. I expected a regular size taco. I was surprised at how large it was. The mushrooms were sliced longways; they were sautéed beautifully, chewing them through the salsa, tortilla and cheese were a delight. There was so much food in these two items that I had the same dinner the next night. The total of the two items was $12.45. I was charged $3.17 for tax and I gave a 15% tip. The delivery fee was waived. The total bill was $17.49, much less than I had been paying all week for other types of food. I really enjoyed the “normalcy” of the food. I bet you will also.

Restrictions eased for restaurants, others businesses in San Diego Hair salons, barbershops, nail salons and tattoo parlors can open indoors; hotels and other lodging can open By JOSÉ A. ÁLVAREZ | The Beacon

After seven weeks of closures, restaurants, museums, theaters and other businesses can resume outdoor operations immediately under state guidance. Hair salons, barbershops, nail salons and tattoo parlors can open indoors. Hotels and other lodging can open. The changes are a result of California health officials’ announcement on Jan. 25 that the Regional Stay Home Order has been lifted for all regions of the state. The state’s four-week intensive care unit bed availability projection for the Southern California region, which includes San Diego County, is expected to be above 15%, the threshold that allows regions to exit the order. “We urged San Diegans to stay at home and most heeded our message,” said Wilma J. Wooten, M.D., M.P.H., County public health officer. “Their actions have helped to slow the spread of COVID-19, kept hospitals and health care workers from being completely overwhelmed and, most importantly, saved lives.” The lifting of the Regional Stay

New Real Estate Office Opens In Point Loma Point Loma has a new Real Estate office located in La Playa. Anne Herrin and Diane Sullivan, long time Point Loma residents and Realtors, have opened a new Compass office at 1021 Rosecrans, which was the prior home of En Concordia. “When we found the spot, we were so excited. The space needed A LOT of LOVE but offered a very cool vibe and the location can’t be beat,” says Sullivan. “My husband, Bob, has done most of the renovation work, inside and out, and we are so pleased with how the office is looking,” noted Herrin. “We now have our very own boutique style office in the heart of La Playa.” “We have moved in and started working while adding the finishing touches of artwork and plants,” said Sullivan. “We also have a wonderful outdoor patio area behind the office, with a table and chairs, which is great for meeting clients during the covid environment. Keeps our clients and us safe,” added Herrin. “It seems like opening an office during a pandemic would not be a good idea, but we thought this is the time to think outside the box. 2020 ended up being a very busy year for Real Estate. It turned out to be one of the best years for myself,” said Sullivan. “Low inventory, pent up buyer demand and

low interest rates have continued to fuel a very hot real estate market,” added Herrin. “We love being in the heart of the Village, just across the street from the old ‘Living Room’ now it is Jennings House. Once life comes back to normal, it will be fun to enjoy walking to dinner to meet friends after work,” stated Sullivan. ”We also look forward to the addition of the decorative anchor lights which Point Loma Association plans on stringing across these two blocks of Rosecrans. This will make Point Loma Village more inviting for businesses, residents and visitors. We know the lights will be a real boost to the area, and we are very excited about the enhancement,” said Herrin. Both Sullivan and Herrin have lived on the Peninsula for most of their adult lives and raised their kids here. They were both very involved in the local schools when their children attended. Both Herrin and Sullivan, with their daughters, were members of MADCAPS, and have always believed in giving back to the community. Herrin is a long-time member of The Thursday Club. She also started the local community Facebook group, Point Loma Connections, in 2010. The group now has over 10,000 members. Herrin is

the administrator and says it has become a great resource for neighbors and the community. “It's a lot of work, but it is very rewarding to see the site used by so many people in Point Loma and Ocean Beach.” Sullivan had taken leadership roles on the Boards of all the schools her kids attended starting with Silver Gate Elementary, Dana, Correia and on through PLHS…. not to mention PLHS Softball and Baseball Booster Clubs. “Staying involved and doing what I can to give back is key.” “We are both so excited to announce the opening of our

office and we would love to have you come on by and say hello. Due to COVID, we have safety in mind always, and have masks and hand sanitizer available,” stated Herrin. “We are thrilled to be open and feel we are so much more a part of the community now. It’s a great feeling,” said Sullivan. ANNE HERRIN 619 379-1496 DRE#01715512

Home Order means that San Diego County is now back in Tier 1, or the Purple Tier, and can return to the rules and framework of the Blueprint for a Safer Economy, the color-coded tiers that indicate which activities and businesses are open based on local case rates and test positivity percentage. The County’s adjusted case rate is currently at 49.6 per every 100,000 residents, which is expected to be reflected on the state’s website tomorrow. The rate is well above the 7.0 case rate that is required to move into the less restrictive Tier 2, or Red Tier. Fifty-four of the 58 California counties are in the strictest level, or Purple Tier. The region’s seven-day case positivity rate is 14.8%, also well above the 7% needed to move to the Red Tier. Counties must remain in their current tier for three weeks and post case rates and testing positivity percentage in the higher tier for two weeks before moving into the less restrictive level. Tier updates are provided weekly on Tuesdays; however, counties can choose to impose stricter rules. Household gatherings are also now allowed, but they should be limited to no more than three households and the interactions must occur outdoors. People must also keep their distance and wear a mask. The 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. curfew remains in effect. “The pandemic is not over, people should continue taking the recommended precautions,” Wooten said. County health officials continue to urge San Diegans to do the following: • When it’s your turn, get vaccinated; • Wash your hands; • Watch your distance around others; • Wear a mask; • When sick, stay home and get tested. Community Setting Outbreaks: • Eight community outbreaks were confirmed Jan. 26: two in business settings, two in TK -12th school setting, one in a daycare/ preschool/childcare setting, one in a government setting, one in a faith-based setting and one in a healthcare setting. • In the past seven days (Jan. 20 through Jan. 26), 53 community outbreaks were confirmed. • The number of community outbreaks remains above the trigger of seven or more in seven days. • A community setting outbreak is defined as three or more COVID-19 cases in a setting and in people of different households over the past 14 days. Testing: • 16,250 tests were reported to the County on Jan. 26, and the percentage of new positive cases was 9%. Read more online at sdnews.com

In 2020 Ocean Beach web designer and graphic artist Josh Utley teamed with fellow Point Loma High School chum Nick Coleman to release a model skateboard deck with custom artwork by renowned artist Steve Nazar. This year, their skateboard enterprise, RMOB Revoked & Co., has come out with another official skateboard deck. The new board features customized artwork for Nico’s, an iconic longtime OB Mexican eatery and breakfast hot spot at 4918 Newport Ave. “As longtime residents of OB, Nico's is a local cultural staple for all, including skateboarders,” said Utley adding one goal for releasing their new board was “to promote local business.” According to Utley, one benefit of their Nico’s skateboard promotion will be to “donate one free skateboard to a kid in-need at a skateboard park or spot for every Nico's skateboard purchased at full value.” The new skateboard deck is available at Nico's, OB Surf & Skate Shop San Diego at 4940 Newport Ave. and at revokedmob.com. “Purchasing one of these skateboards will not only treat you to a brand new deck, but also give back to communities around the world, and support a skater-owned skater-made company,” states RMOB Revoked & Co.’s website, which notes Nico’s skateboards are available for pre-order on the

website with shipping scheduled for April 20. Nico’s skateboard collaboration was originally supposed to be released last summer. However, Utley said, due to trade tensions with China and the pandemic, there has been a wood shortage for certain board sizes. He added big skateboard companies typically get their designs created in China before applying them to U.S. skateboards. “So now those same companies have had to get their graphics done back in the United States, and that has had a significant impact on production timelines,” Utley said. Utley was glad to help out a skateboard-friendly local business. “For me, I can remember my now brother-in-law, who I went to OB Elementary with, getting a note from his mom to buy burritos from Nico’s for lunch rather than eating lunch at school,” Utley said, adding he and his family remain Nico’s regulars. “We eat there once a week,” said the web

designer. “We know people. It’s just an experience because you run into people of all ages who surf and skate: People who just love OB.” Utley approached Nico’s owner Jose with the prospect of having his own signature skateboard, which he noted Jose was unsure about at first. Said Utley: “I explained that, for every board we sell, we can give a board to a kid. That really appealed to him.” Utley worked with Jose to make Nico’s signature board yellow so the restaurant’s trademark red rooster logo would stand out more. What became RMOB Revoked & Co.started as a pact among seven PLHS skateboarding enthusiasts including Utley to produce their own signature board. Utley and his friend’s skateboard odyssey began with them going downtown years ago and filing for a fictitious business name for their future signature board. “We went with the intent of starting our skateboard company, and we didn’t want it to be an unfulfilled promise,” said Utley. Years later, the idea of creating a signature skateboard resurfaced for Utley once he realized, “We could give, or donate, new skateboards to kids who have old skateboards or maybe can’t afford a skateboard. That was our issue growing up.” A generation later, their schoolage dream of starting their own skateboard company and creating their own signature skateboard has finally become reality.

Centennial celebration for The Thursday Club in Point Loma By DAVE SCHWAB | The Beacon

The pandemic hasn’t paused the philanthropic mission of The Thursday Club in Point Loma or prevented the group from virtually celebrating its 100th anniversary this year on Feb. 4. “We’re 100 years old and today we’re still a women’s philanthropic and social organization and really not much has changed, as we’ve stayed true to the mission our founders put forth,” said Francesca Thiem, centennial chair for The Thursday Club, which has a clubhouse building at 1224 Santa Barbara St. in Point Loma. “We’ve had our annual rummage sale the last 93 years, which has taken place in Balboa Park’s Activity Center and takes a week to set up and offers some really good-quality stuff.” Thiem noted however that the rummage sale, Thursday Club’s largest annual fundraiser,had to be canceled this year and last due to COVID and social-distancing restrictions. “But we’re still doing several monthly service projects, like food and clothing drives for the homeless, that our members have organized,” Thiem added. Over the years, The Thursday Club’s March rummage sale has raised millions of dollars for Balboa Park and community beneficiaries while supporting health, children, elderly, homeless, museums, music, arts, veterans, life skills, animals,

education and women's issues, etc. Beneficiaries of The Thursday Club’s fundraising largesse have included the San Diego Food Bank, Leukemia & Lymphoma Society blood drive for children with cancer, New Day Urban Ministries, I Love A Clean San Diego, Jewish Family Services, and others. The Thursday Club’s virtual centennial celebration on Thursday, Feb. 4 is being bolstered by Mayor Todd Gloria’s proclamation declaring that date as The Thursday Club Day in the city. “We had intended on having a live celebration, but instead we’re having a live streaming event instead on our founder’s day on Feb. 4,” said Thiem. “We’ll have a virtual link available and we’ll have dignitaries speak on videos. “It’s really going to be a wonderful time with us getting recognized by community leaders for having raised funds for the San Diego community and the needy through our rummage sale for almost 100 years. We’re also being recognized for our clubhouse, which we’ve rented out and which has allowed us to do wonderful things.” Founded in February 1921, The Thursday Club has had hundreds of volunteers working hundreds of hours to raise hundreds of thousands of dollars to benefit worthy organizations community wide. A social and philanthropic organization from the start, the club was originally founded by four young

married women who were friends in high school and college and decided to form a club as there were no clubs for married women at the time. Since 1921, the club’s goal has remained unchanged: to promote educational, cultural, social, moral and civic activities in San Diego. Founders Mrs. Harold Brucker, Mrs. Robert Neiman, Mrs. Harold M. Royle and Mrs. Cornelius P. Butler were given a lot in the Sunset Cliffs area in 1926 by the Pantages-MillsSchreve Development Co. With funds secured through a bank loan along with building provisions, a white Spanish stucco house with red tile roof was built for the club on Santa Barbara Street. Today, meetings, weddings,

THE McCURDY MINUTE Real Estate Topics Everyone Can Relate To DID YOU RECENTLY PURCHASE PROPERTY? THEN YOU NEED TO KNOW THIS. There is one call you MUST make after buying a home and it is often overlooked... During the home buying process, you work with many individuals: your realtor, the seller’s realtor, the title company, the loan officer, and the home inspector. Now that you have finalized the purchase of your house, there is one more expert you need to call: your estate planning attorney. Here are three crucial steps you should take to avoid complications should your home need to be managed by a beneficiary.

"Don't leave your new home purchase unprotected. There is one more expert you to call: your estate planning attorney."

ALIGN YOUR NEW HOME WITH A NEW OR EXISTING ESTATE PLAN An attorney can help create a plan or review new documents associated with your home purchase in conjunction with your existing estate plan to ensure that everything aligns and works towards your overall objectives. If your existing estate plans include a trust that owns all of your assets, it is crucial that your new home is titled in the name of the trust and not in your name individually (or jointly if married). GENERAL REVIEW & UPDATE OF YOUR ESTATE PLAN Since you have engaged in a new life changing event, now is the perfect time to review your existing plan. This is a great opportunity to make sure that the individuals you have appointed in the crucial roles

of guardian, executor, agent, or trustee are still able to carry out those duties when the need arises. With the passage of time, these individuals may have moved away, died, or otherwise undergone a life change themselves that makes them a less than desirable candidate to act on your behalf. While you are reviewing your estate plans, it is also important that you review the language in the document that clarifies how your property is managed and by whom. Here are two key questions to ask: 1) Do you still want to have your assets divided the same way? 2) Have the needs of your beneficiaries changed over the years? It is your job to ensure that you are protecting and providing for your beneficiaries. Make sure that the provisions are set up for

Liberty Station | Point Loma 619.930.5443 sdestatelawyers.com

the best individualized protection for those recipients. Often they can be grandchildren or not of legal age to sign documents, so make sure you have this properly covered. BUYING IN A DIFFERENT STATE Lastly, if the purchase of your new home is in a different state, you will definitely want to visit an estate planning attorney. By changing states, the documents you previously have prepared may not adequately protect you and your family. Each state has unique laws regarding trusts and estates, you will need to make sure that any documents you are currently relying on are enforceable in your new state. Unenforceable or not- optimized documents can be just as bad as having no estate planning documents at all.

THE PENINSULA BEACON | FRIDAY · January 29, 2021 | PAGE 13

The feat of building such a structure was unconventional. “We had to design equipment to handle problems. The whole idea of a fishing pier was to keep it as low as we could for fishermen pulling up their catch.” Incidentally, engineer Greer Ferver, himself a fisherman, in his draft of the pier addressed the convenience of cutting bait on wider tops of the wooden rails. “Ferver had done his underwater design study the summer ahead, noting four feet of sand on top of the natural sandstone layer

under the area where we put the pier,” the general contractor said. Midway through the build it was necessary to alter the original blueprint after an aggressive January storm washed out three forward pilings and nearly forced a costly crane into the water. Keep in mind that at the time, the pier was still under construction when the sea devoured portions of two, 30-foot precast concrete deck sections. It was then discovered that the natural progression of winter tides took out all that sand from the sandstone ledge, which increased the height of waves that would hit the pier. “To accommodate this revelation, the structural engineer

redesigned the grade of the pier from the destruction point, or from where the pier bends up,” notes the contractor, “thus increasing the grade, or slope, by 1 percent to get above the surf, nearly two-thirds the length of the pier. All in a day’s work…” Curious surfers were discouraged from the dangers of riding through the underside of the pier, but piles at this monstrous construction site intrigued nearly everyone. The contractor holds rich esteem for the community of Ocean Beach, for its early tenacity for want of a pier, and its on-going affection of it. “Everybody loves that pier!” he crows.

Rigid airships had a short and perilous career in the U.S. Navy. From 1921 to 1935 five lighterthan-air reconnaissance vessels sailed the skies then suffered catastrophic structural failure or were scrapped. Airships were a bad idea.
