Buyer found for former Midway Post Office site BY DAVE SCHWAB | THE BEACON The United States Postal Service (USPS) is in negotiations with a buyer for the abandoned Midway Post Office site, once the central mail processing and distribution facility for all of San Diego County. But USPS isn’t divulging any details. “The USPS is in contract with a potential buyer for the Midway Drive facility located at 2535 Midway Drive,” said postal spokeswoman Eva Jackson. “We are still in the due diligence phase, and expect the deal to close within the next few months.” “I confirmed with the USPS district manager that the property has been sold to a consolidator of some kind, and that the USPS will be emptying out the remaining equipment for the new tenant in the next cou-

Redevelopment of OB Veterans Plaza moves ahead ‘(It) will be a powerful visual and a tribute to the veterans.’ TOM PERROTTI OBCDC PRESIDENT

BY DAVE SCHWAB | THE BEACON Ocean Beach Community Development Corporation (OBCDC) is forging ahead with the OB Veterans Plaza redevelopment project, announcing applications are currently being accepted to add veterans' names – living and deceased – to the wall

of a new proposed Veterans Plaza. “The wonderful thing about this project is that it has the full support of all of the community groups in Ocean Beach, as well as the mayor of San Diego, Supervisor Ron Roberts, Councilwoman Lori Zapf and our state as well as our federal representatives,” said OBCDC president Tom Perrotti,

On any balmy summer night, hundreds of people can be found strolling the length of the Ocean Beach Pier. But for one frequent visitor, that stroll remains a struggle. Will Barton steps cautiously along the concrete pathway, counting the benches he passes, always cognizant of how many he reached in his last visit, always pushing himself to reach the next one. For Barton, who turned 23 last month, those pier benches are a measure of the progress he continues to make nearly three years after a deranged fugitive shot him three times and left him to die on a street near Balboa Park.

Cabrillo National Monument Park to double entrance fee Effective Nov. 1, 2015, Cabrillo National Monument (CNM) in Point Loma will increase entrance fees for visitors from $5 to $10 per vehicle for seven-day entry, as well as increasing the annual park pass from $15 to $20 per year. Motorcycles will pay $7 for entry. Pedestrians/bicyclists will be charge $5 instead of $3 for a seven-day visit. It is the first fee increase in 27 years of fee collection at the national park. “This modest increase in fees will allow us to continue to protect, preserve and share the natural and cultural resources here at CNM with current visitors and future generations,” said National Park Service superintendent Thomas Workman. “After carefully considering the impact of a fee increase on visitors and community members, we came to the conclusion that this is the right course of action to improve facilities and services important to visitors.” Park entrance fees have supported a

Midway group listens to pitch from medical marijuana reps BY DAVE SCHWAB | THE BEACON Midway Community Planning Group (MCPG) heard a pitch from attorneys representing medical marijuana cooperatives, who expressed that industry’s willingness to work with the community to help solve local problems, like homelessness. The advisory group in July also got a progress report on MCPG’s ongoing community plan update. Attorney Michael Cindrich, a former district attorney prosecutor who’s now an advocate for the medical cannabis industry with his consulting firm, Green Capital Ventures, told the group he wasn’t there to change anyone’s viewpoint on medical marijuana. Instead, he said he wanted to convey receptiveness by the cooperative industry to work with the community to mutually solve problems afflicting the Midway-Pacific Highway Corridor. The Corridor is a hodgepodge of commercial, industrial, office and warehouse land uses, plus limited residential, in a transitional area bordering Old Town, Point Loma, Pacific Beach and downtown San Diego. “We know (some in) the community’s feelings regarding this type of business,” said Cindrich. “What we want to do is create community improvement, and develop a plan to do that based on cooperation.” Noting medical marijuana cooperatives have worked successfully with com-

munities elsewhere in the state to achieve public improvements, Cindrich said there’s no reason that can’t be accomplished in San Diego. “We want to give back to the community and allow our industry to actually work with the (other) businesses to have a positive impact,” said Cindrich. Noting Midway has a “very large homeless population” and problems with alcohol and drug abuse, Cindrich added there is an “opportunity” to work together for the common good on social problems and other needs, like community beautification.

Business improvement district MCPG chair Melanie Nickel suggested cooperatives could tackle efforts to reestablish a business improvement district (BID) in Midway. “The community used to have a BID that did a lot of good planting trees, doing clean-up projects and working with homeless providers,” noted Nickel. “There is money set aside for this (a BID) but it can’t be used until a nonprofit BID is restarted.” “You (cooperatives) could spearhead it (BID) and use that (new) group as a driving force,” suggested MCPG board member Kurt Sullivan. “A lot of the preliminary work has been done,” added Nickel pointing out a recent MCPG board member, who has left the group, was trying to revive the BID, including creating a new website for it.

After the meeting, Cindrich said his consulting firm is exploring the possibility of restarting a Midway BID adding, if it proves feasible, that the goal would be to “set up the structure of it before handing it off to the community.”

In other action: • Nickel said there is at least one, and likely two, vacancies open on the MCPG group. She said a volunteer, not necessarily an advisory group member, is needed to attend quarterly meetings of the San Diego County Airport Authority on behalf of the group. • MCPG will be dark in August and the group will next meet Wednesday, Sept. 16 at 3 p.m. at San Diego Community College-West City Campus, Room 205 • City staffer Vickie white said work on a draft of MCPG’s community plan update will be ready for public review soon with an eye toward City Council approval in fall 2016. MCPG board member Cathy Kenton questioned the viability of reviewing a draft plan update when the traffic analysis for it is not yet complete. “We’re sitting here spinning our wheels spending money on something that’s not happening,” Kenton said. “So much goes into developing a community plan that it takes a Village,” replied White.

wide range of projects that improve the park and visitor experiences, including rehabilitating trails, offering education programming and removing exotic plants to restore natural habitat, as well as creating a new park film. Additional revenue from this fee increase will upgrade military history exhibits, construct an accessible interpretive shelter at the tide pools and rehabilitate the main public restrooms at Cabrillo’s visitor center. In fall 2014, NPS conducted a nationwide review of park entrance fees. CNM followed suit with its own civic engagement campaign in November 2014. During the public comment period, CNM received 49 formal comments, on an original proposal that could have as much as tripled park entrance fees. Many people felt that the original proposal was too much of an increase all at once. Responding to public comment, CNM modified the proposal to reduce the amounts.

Peninsula planning discusses pocket park, billboard issues BY DAVE SCHWAB | THE BEACON In July Peninsula Community Planning Board (PCPB), after lengthy discussion, tabled a motion to spend more than $800,000 in development impact fees (DIF) for creation of a pocket park at the end of Canon Street. A continuance was granted until the group’s next meeting Sept. 17, to allow time to study other alternative uses for the DIF funds. The group also unanimously backed supporting a motion to hold the Murdock family, owners of the Dolphin Motel and Small Hotel, to honor an allegedly previously made pledge to the community to remove an existing billboard on their property at 1453-55 Rosecrans St. The billboard, owned by Clear Channel Outdoor on a month-to-month lease with the Murdocks, is one of only two remaining in the community, which used to have as many as a dozen or more. Those billboards have since been

removed because they were considered visual blight. District 2 Council staffer Conrad Wear and city parks planner Robin Shifflet filled PCPB in on recent funding that has come through for both design and construction of the pocket park project. Wear noted DIF fees are charged to developers for their projects as community compensation for the impacts of new development. “This money must be spent within five years,” said Wear adding park and recreation facilities are on the list of eligible community projects for DIF funding. Shifflet explained the way the park development process works, is that once those DIF funds are earmarked, the park project will go to the city’s Public Works Department which will hire a consultant and conduct three public workshops to receive community input on what amenities Point Lomans would like to see in a pocket park. “It is roughly a two- to three-year timeline for this,” Shifflet said.

Board member Nicole Burgess disagreed, noting she lives near a pocket park, adding it is heavily used by a crosssection of community members, especially dog walkers. PCPB board members Don Sevrens and Jon Linney, on their own behalf and not representing the planning board, have been lobbying for more than a year to secure support and funding for the proposed Canon pocket park. They most recently secured the endorsement of nonprofit United Portuguese SES to DAVID DICK sponsor creation of a new pocket park.

munity, before committing all of it to the Canon pocket park. The PCPB board was overwhelming in favor of postponing a vote to approve the Canon pocket park until September. Regarding the existing, disputed billboard on Rosecrans, board member Sevrens defended the elder Murdock, Holly, pointing out he is not the “villain” in this but an ex-Marine who fought in Korea who is protecting his interests from the billboard’s owner, whom Sevrens said is threatening to sue to prevent the billboard from being removed from its current location. “They (Murdocks) agreed the billboard would be removed, and it should be removed,” said PCPB board member Jarvis Ross. The group concurred, voting unanimously to draft a letter supporting the billboard’s removal. PCPB will be dark in August and will next meet Thursday, Sept. 17 at 6:30 p.m. at the Point Loma Library’s community room at 3701 Voltaire St.

City Council votes to support zero waste BY DAVE SCHWAB | THE BEACON

As envisioned, the Ocean Beach Veterans Plaza redevelopment conceptual design would recognize coastal veterans with a new plaza that is ‘artistic/beachy’ in design.

will be a source of pride for the entire city of San Diego,” he said. Started in 1993, the OBCDC is a nonprofit created for the benefit of Ocean Beach, which seeks to develop resources for revitalizing the infrastructure of the community applying the OB “spirit.” Ocean Beach Veterans Plaza at the corner of Newport Avenue and Abbot Street was constructed in 1997 as a memorial to honor those who’ve served, and continue to serve, in the military. Over time, the plaza has become worn down due to the corrosive nature of salt air and foot traffic. The plaza is currently in disrepair

with many of the inscriptions, including a Medal of Honor recipient, being so eroded that they have become illegible. In an effort to honor veterans that have a connection with the Peninsula community, applications from 92107 and 92106 ZIP codes representing Point Loma and OB have been given top priority for name inscriptions until Jan. 1, 2016. To preserve the new plaza, fundraising for construction of which is ongoing, there is a $250 maintenance donation that will be taken for each new-name inscription application, which will be applied solely to future upkeep, the OBCDC said. As envisioned, the Ocean Beach Veterans Plaza redevelopment conceptual

design would recognize coastal veterans with a new plaza that is “artistic/beachy” in design. Plans call for an artificial rock wall mimicking Sunset Cliffs’ stratified geology with veterans’ names etched into a series of four granite slabs set into it. Adjacent to the new memorial wall would be inlaid stars representing lives lost in battle. Other artistic flourishes are to include low-lying artistic-themed meandering walls. Regarding updating the proposed veterans plaza, Perrotti said the original design “has changed a little bit, but not much.” Original plaza plans called for a family gathering and overlook area. “They were taken out of the design because of concerns over that area

going too far into the beach and affecting the sand berm that is put up every year,” said OBCDC board member Stephen Grosch. “Instead, the west side of the plaza will reflect the semi-circle entrance on the east side of the plaza.” OBCDC’s president Perrotti said he has personal reasons for being involved with the new project to honor vets. “I have five brothers who were all in the military, and it's my way of thanking them,” Perrotti said. The OBCDC president added he believes the new veterans plaza will be “a powerful message” and “a real tribute to the whole region.” Perrotti said the project could be completed as soon as the end of 2016, if all goes well.

The San Diego City Council’s nine members voted unanimously July 13 to support a proposed zero waste plan with the goal of diverting 75 percent of the waste generated in the city away from landfill disposal by 2020. The city's goal is to reach zero waste by 2040. To get there, government officials acknowledged that the city will need to reuse, recycle and reduce the amount of waste generated within its boundaries by emphasizing education and legislation aimed at waste reduction. The city’s Environmental Services Department has been asked to come up with new ways to reduce the amount of waste that ends up in landfills. Alternatives could include additional organic recycling, revising city recycling ordinances and increasing recycling at city facilities, as well as instituting additional education and outreach. During council deliberations, District 2 Councilwoman Lorie Zapf, who represents the beachfront south of La Jolla, said the whole point of the zero waste proposal is to “try to divert as much as we can.” Noting blue recycling bins typically are the ones that overflow, Zapf asked if residences could have more than one blue trash bin, and if there would be any extra-added cost associated with picking up an extra bin. She was told each residence is entitled to have up to three blue recycling bins, and that they are provided by the city free of charge, though there is a $25 delivery fee. “We have a lot of work to do in our backyards,” noted Zapf, of making the proposed zero waste plan a reality. “I never thought this plan would get here when it was first brought to our attention a couple of years ago,” said Council President Sherri Lightner of District 1, which includes La Jolla. “I think implementation of publicspace recycling must be paired with the city leading by example in incorporating waste-reduction measures in its own facilities,” Lightner said. The city currently diverts 67 percent of its waste from landfills. To meet its 2020 goal, the city will need to divert an additional 332,000 tons of waste annually.

San Salvador takes a ride, to launch over Labor Day weekend The Maritime Museum of San Diego on Wednesday, July 22, transferred the full-sized, fully functional replica of Juan Rodríguez Cabrillo’s Spanish ship the San Salvador via barge from Spanish Landing to Marine Group’s boatyard in Chula Vista. The San Salvador is the embodiment of California’s origin story. The voyage in 1542, with Cabrillo at the helm, established California as one of the places in America’s landscape where citizens can say the country truly began. Crews transferred the San Salvador onto a self-propelled trailer, donated for the project by Marine Group Boat Works, then placed the ship onto a shallow draft barge Wednesday morning for transit to Marine Group’s boatyard. The San Salvador will remain at the boatyard until her debut on Labor Day weekend at the Port of San Diego’s 2015 Festival of Sail, hosted by the Maritime Museum of San Diego. “This is a truly monumental day for the Maritime Museum of San Diego, our dedicated volunteers, generous donors, the San Diego region and the State of California,” said Dr. Ray Ashley, CEO of the Maritime Museum of San Diego. “Recreating the San Salvador has been years in the making. We have celebrated many milestones along the way, but launching the ship is a moment we’ve been waiting for since the beginning.” Built for trade, the original San Salvador was a three-masted ship of 200 toneladas, meaning it could carry 200 barrels of wine.

Four college-bound members of last season's Point Loma High School CIF playoff football team played important roles in the 25th Annual Alex Spanos All-Star Classic football game played July 11 at Mesa College. The summer battle is the longest-running prep all-star game in California, providing graduating seniors from North and South county schools one final opportunity to take the field in front of family and friends as they bid their prep careers farewell. And, there are some important bragging rights at stake too. Wearing white San Diego Chargersstyle jerseys with the famed powder blue vertical stripes and lightning bolts on their pants, Gavin Grady, Cole Kidd, Dan O'Beirne and Jacob Virissimo helped the South team to a convincing 28-0 victory that once again affirmed that the county's best football is not always played in North County. The victory gives the South an 11-10 edge in the game's current North-South format and a five-game winning streak including last year's 21-17 match. Grady shared quarterbacking duties with El Capitan's Brad Cagle, and each guided the South team to a touchdown on its first two possessions. After the South took an early 7-0 lead, a lost North fumble gave the South a short field, and several plays later, Grady connected with El Capitan's Isaiah Capoocia on a four-yard scoring pass that

quickly upped the South lead to 14-0. Kidd's fourth down sack of the North quarterback in the second quarter fired up his teammates, who marched 45 yards for a score, boosting the lead to 21-0 at halftime. In the fourth quarter, the North's most serious scoring threat was thwarted by the stingy South defense and the South moved for its final touchdown. South head coach Ron Burner and staff (El Capitan) were able to prepare their squad during a short two-week

practice period that brought players together from many schools with divergent playing styles. Kidd, O'Beirne and Virissimo were key members of a smothering defense that wreaked havoc on the North's best players, often chasing quarterbacks out of the pocket and delivering stunning hits on running backs and receivers. Kidd and Virissimo reprised their Pointer roles as defensive ends while O'Beirne saw action at linebacker and also played offensive line. The South tallied 10 sacks against the North, seven coming in the first half. "The game was fun," said Virissimo as the four Pointers gathered afterwards. "Playing with and going up against people we don't usually play with was really cool." Grady observed, "You think you're going to bump heads with some of the guys you played against, but everyone came together and they're your brothers all of a sudden." "The two weeks of practice we had showed how football brings people together," said O'Beirne. "During practices, we came together with people I didn't even want to talk to." "It was a great experience to play with and against players I'd heard and talked about," Kidd noted. "We got to bond, and the competition was great." Each former Pointer will have an opportunity to connect with others they haven't met as they continue their football careers. Grady is headed to Chapman University, Kidd to Grossmont College, O'Beirne to Wheaton College and Virissimo to Sonoma State University. Two former professional players with Pointer ties were among those honored on the field in pre-game ceremonies. Former defender Jimmy Wilson, class of 2004, played in the Spanos Classic before moving on to University of Montana. He just signed with the Chargers after four seasons with the Miami Dolphins and served as the South's honorary captain. La'Roi Glover, class of 1992, also played as a defensive lineman in the allstar game before embarking on an honor-filled professional career.

IDW Publishing earns accolades, awards at this year's Comic-Con IDW Publishing, one of the nation’s largest comic book publishers, which opened new headquarters in Liberty Station recently, had 11 nominations – and won three awards – at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con International. Winning the award for Best Limited Series was the captivating series “Little Nemo: Return To Slumberland” from Eric Shanower and Gabriel Rodriguez. This marks Rodriguez’s first Eisner Award. For the fifth year in a row IDW’s landmark Artist’s Edition series was awarded the Best Archival Collection/ Project – Comic Books Eisner Award for the “Steranko Nick Fury Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. Artist’s Edition.” Spearheaded by IDW special projects director Scott Dunbier, this groundbreaking format continues to highlight acclaimed creators’ original artwork. Rounding out the “Genius” trilogy of in-depth looks into the life and work of Alex Toth, “Genius Animated: The Cartoon Art of Alex Toth” edited by Dean Mullaney and Bruce Canwell, won Best Comics-Related Book. “We’re once again honored and thrilled by the Eisner Award recognition,” said Chris Ryall, IDW’s chief creative officer/editor-in-chief. “As with every year, our books are nominated against many other worthy contenders and anything like the Eisner Awards puts so much more attention on the great books being produced across all levels of comics, as well as the inventive, talented creators who make those books,

is a great thing.” The Eisner Awards judges also selected six individuals to be inducted into the Will Eisner Comic Awards Hall of Fame for 2015, one of which was John Byrne. “Just as John Byrne was honored to be admitted to the Will Eisner Hall of Fame, I was similarly honored to accept on his behalf,” said Ryall. “John’s four decades in comics has inspired both storylines of immensely popular movies as well as legions of comic readers and creators, and I look forward to him continuing his creativity with IDW.” Founded in 1999, IDW Publishing is an award-winning publisher of comic

books, graphic novels and trade paperbacks. During the last 15 years, IDW has grown into a fully staffed publishing company, including 50-plus full-time employees and more than 300 freelancers. IDW Publishing is regularly recognized as the No. 4 comic book publisher in the US. Over 80 IDW titles have appeared on The New York Times BestSeller list. In 2014 alone, IDW published over 500 unique comic book titles, and over 200 unique graphic novels. Renowned for its diverse catalog of licensed and independent titles, IDW publishes some of the most successful and popular titles in the industry, including: Hasbro’s The Transformers, G.I. Joe, My Little Pony and Jem and then Holograms; Paramount/CBS’s Star Trek; Nickelodeon’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles; Toho’s Godzilla; Twentieth Century Fox’s X-Files; Temple Street Productions’ Orphan Black; DISNEY comics; Ragnarök from Eisner Award-winner Walter Simonson; and Zombies vs Robots from Chris Ryall and Ashley Wood. IDW Publishing relocated their headquarters and creative team, as well as opening a groundbreaking new San Diego Comic Art Gallery (SDCAG), to Liberty Station on June 1. IDW’s new offices and gallery are located in two renovated former barracks buildings. At 18,300 square feet, IDW is now the largest tenant in the already vibrant Liberty Station arts district.

More than 7,000 Comic-Con attendees left the convention center and descended upon Embarcadero Marina Park South to hear the San Diego Symphony perform a free concert of John Williams’ “Star Wars” music. Prior to the concert, Academy Award-winner and “Star Wars” composer Williams appeared on video to welcome the crowd and say: “The music tonight will be performed by one of my favorite orchestras, the San Diego Symphony.” The enthusiasm was palpable as the

As dusk settled in, Abrams and Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy greeted the crowd and introduced the “Star Wars” franchise’s past and future, bringing out the returning stars of the original trilogy: Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher and Mark Hammill along with cast members of Disney’s upcoming “Star Wars: The Force Awakens.” The glorious concert was performed by the San Diego Symphony, led by the orchestra’s new assistant conductor Sameer Patel. While the familiar and thrilling music soared over San Diego Bay, the crowd roared and cheered with delight as video from past “Star Wars” films played on the big screen.

THE PENINSULA BEACON

BY DAVE SCHWAB | THE BEACON Liberty Public Market, the creation of a 22,000-square-foot artisan mecca in Liberty Station, will reveal its lineup of market artisans on-site Thursday, July 23. Blue Bridge Hospitality, Liberty Public Market’s operating group, in partnership with Liberty Station developer The McMillin Cos., will also present the identity of the public market's first big vendor. The new market’s grand opening is

anticipated in late October. One of San Diego's most ambitious hospitality projects of 2015, the $3 million undertaking will transform a historic 1920s-era warehouse-style building into an indoor-outdoor marketplace housing 30-plus specialty purveyors. What was originally designated for a project called The Shops in the 22,000square-foot wing of Liberty Station’s Building 1 will now become the site of Liberty Public Market. It will be a culinary bazaar spearheaded by Coronado restaurateur David Spatafore of Blue

Bridge Hospitality. The venture was inspired by Spatafore’s visits to Redding Terminal Market in Philadelphia and Granville Island Public Market in Vancouver, Canada. Building 1 at 2816 Historic Decatur Road was originally built as the Naval Training Center’s commissary in 1921.

Coasterra offers waterfront dining on Harbor Island

Airport Authority allows Lyft and Uber to operate at Lindbergh Field

Opening in August, Cohn Restaurant Group is gearing up for the anticipated launch of its most ambitious project to date: Coasterra, the $10 million bayfront modern Mexican restaurant, lounge, and event space on Harbor Island. More than eight years in the making, the 28,000-square-foot venue promises a compelling combination of panoramic views of San Diego’s downtown skyline, carefully crafted Mexican dishes, and a tequila-focused bar program all housed in sleek, modern design. Cohn Restaurant Group partnered with Sunroad Enterprises on this one-of-a-kind project. “We can’t wait to unveil Coasterra to the San Diego community – it’s been a project nearly a decade in the making and we’ve strived to create a truly exceptional venue unlike any in the city,” said David Cohn, founder of Cohn Restaurant Group. “San Diego has earned the reputation of ‘America's Finest City’ for many reasons, and the breathtaking skyline and incredible views of our beautiful bay and downtown are at the top of the list. Pair that with a delicious dining experience and top-notch service at Coasterra, and I think we’ve built something incredibly special.” Tapped to lead the culinary program alongside partner/chef Deborah Scott will be John Gray as the executive chef. With more than two decades of culinary experience at some of the finest restaurants in Latin America, Gray brings a worldly perspective to San Diego’s dining scene. At Coasterra, Gray and Scott are introducing a menu of regional Mexican cuisine with a focus on unexpected flavor combinations with fresh, seasonal ingredients. Sharable starters include ordering from the tableside guacamole cart with specialty add-ins like lobster,

The San Diego County Regional Airport Authority recently signed permits for ridesharing companies Lyft and Uber to begin operations at San Diego International Airport (SAN) as part of a pilot program. The two ridesharing companies will begin operations at SAN immediately, augmenting existing service provided by Opoli. Airport Authority staff has worked with the ridesharing industry over the past year to draft a permit for transportation network companies (TNCs) to operate at SAN. Last Wednesday, the Airport Authority Board adopted a resolution that removes the fingerprinting requirement from the Airport Authority’s background check process for several ground transportation providers, including TNCs, taxi cab providers and shared ride vans or Vehicles for Hire. The TNCs will continue to conduct their own accredited background checks of their drivers. The decision helped facilitate the issuance of TNC permits while still ensuring a level playing field for all ground transportation providers at SAN. The pilot program for all TNCs will run through June 30, 2016, after which the Airport Authority will evaluate how it’s working and determine if tweaks to the process or regulations need to be made. “The Airport Authority always looks for ways to improve the customer experience for our passengers,” said Airport Authority board chair Robert Gleason. “We’re excited to offer the latest indemand transportation options to the traveling public, and we’re doing so while keeping safety as a top priority.” “SAN’s permitting policies for transportation network companies are stringent, and it has taken time to structure a mutually beneficial agreement,” said Airport Authority board member April Boling. “We have sought to ensure a level playing field for all of our commercial ground transportation providers, and I think the current permit achieves that goal. We can now offer a wide variety of ground transportation options that passengers desire, and we look forward to cementing similar agreements with other TNCs in the near future.” “After months of collaborative work toward a permitting agreement, we're excited to announce that travelers will be able to request a Lyft ride at San Diego International Airport," said Bakari Brock, Lyft's director of business development. "We'd like to thank the Airport Authority board and SAN staff for welcoming ridesharing as a safe, reliable, and innovative transportation option for San Diego visitors and residents.”

Great music, food and cool vibes at Humphreys Concerts by the Bay BY JENNIFER GREEN | THE BEACON

Picture this: a warm summer evening spent under the stars, singing along with Lyle Lovett or Crosby, Stills and Nash (or insert the name of 50 or so of your favorite blues, classic rock, oldies, jazz or comedy acts) as you sip divine housemade craft cocktails and gaze out at boats docked at the San Diego Bay. Humphreys Half Moon Inn and Suites’ concert series offers just such an SEE COASTERRA, Page 13 experience for locals and visitors to Shelter Island, nicknamed San Diego’s Hawaiian Isle. From Easter until Halloween, staff have created an intimate music venue, unique not only to San Diego but to the U.S., where you can listen to tunes from the outdoor concert theater. Alternatively, you can take it all in from your boat or kayak, conveniently located adjacent to the stage. This unparalleled setting is a major draw for concert goers, according to Bobbi Brieske, vice president at Humphreys.

DELICIOUS DINNERS “I cook food with flavor. Not stuffy…but delicious,” says Paul Murphy, executive chef at Humphreys restaurant. This food makes your mouth happy: fresh sea scallops seared to perfection; lobster risotto; Yukon Gold potato and asparagus flatbreads are a few of the options on the menu. Murphy has 32 years of cooking experience, but he doesn’t just rely on that to build the concert series menu, which changes an astonishing 30-plus times over the series. He regularly visits his fellow chefs at local eateries, talks to servers and elicits feedback from his foody customers. His advice to those who aren’t lucky enough to get a dinner/concert combination package is to just yell his name from your boat – he’ll come out and chat about the menu with you. Just don’t do it too often or he won’t have anytime to cook!

Artists performing at Humphreys rave about the open-air atmosphere. They shout their helloes to the theater attendees and then out to the “boaties” listening from kayaks, inflatable rafts and

even small power boats. Those who prefer getting an earful of music by just spreading a blanket on the grass outside the venue also contribute to a true neighborhood vibe. Humphrey’s concert series has hosted thousands of artists in a theater that holds just 1,450 adoring fans since 1982. Followers of all types of music and comedy can get up close and personal (the last row is only 110 feet from the stage) with the likes of Melissa Etheridge to comedian Jim Gaffigan (this weekend) to the Buena Vista Social Club and George Thorogood and the Destroyers. The venue was envisioned by a thenUCSD student Marc Geiger (music promoter extraordinaire and co-creator of Lollapalooza). He thought of using the resort’s inner courtyard as a music venue to entertain guests and the community. What started as a smooth jazz haven has exploded into the multifaceted lineup that Humphreys talent buyer hand picks each year. This year’s lineup encompasses three seasons of music and entertainment.

crab, and shrimp, or the Tostada de Atun with soy, garlic and sesame oil glazed tuna, crispy tortilla, creamy coleslaw and cilantro sprouts. Signature dishes include the Mar y Tierra, a savory blend of beef short rib, Oaxacan mole, lobster risotto cake, and charred asparagus, as well as the Tamal de Champinon with crispy criminis, goat cheese, pomegranate seeds, and topped with smoked poblano cream. Coasterra is a destination for the beverage experience in itself with more than

70 labels of agave spirits including highend tequila and artisanal mezcal, a robust wine emphasis on Latin America and Baja varietals, and over a dozen local and Mexican craft beer options on tap. Coasterra’s impressive design comes from a contemporary local architect, the late Graham Downes (Graham Downes Architecture). The mid-century-influenced restaurant features seating for 300-plus people, more than half of which is outside, and comes together with a central inspiration: the views of the San Diego Harbor. Offering a panoramic perspective of

the water and skyline from every vantage point throughout the artfully designed building, the space also infuses modern furnishings, rustic statement pieces sourced from Mexico, and massive abstract murals on the interior and exterior of the restaurant by local Mexican artist Rafael Lopez. Along with the restaurant, Coasterra is home to a unique event center ideal for weddings, business banquets and special occasions. The space will soon feature an outdoor floating event deck that accommodates 500 people standing as well as an airy banquet room, which seats more than 300.

ENJOY THE BEAUTY OF OLD TOWN Stagecoach Days: Celebrating the Wild West in San Diego Free Event Every Saturday in July and August in Old Town Old Town San Diego State Historic Park is celebrating travel and transportation in the era of real horsepower during “Stagecoach Days,” kicking off on July 11. Come join in the old-fashioned fun from the mid-1800s from noon to 4 p.m. on seven Saturdays in July and August. Sponsored by Fiesta de Reyes and Boosters of Old Town, the free event features a different theme each Saturday such as Days of the Vaqueros, Women of the West, Soldiers and Citizens, TwainFest and Taste of the Past. Attendees will enjoy afternoons filled with activities that reflect life in early San Diego and celebrate the West on the move.

Through living history activities and demonstrations, stories and songs, visitors will gain an appreciation for early modes of transportation and daily life.All activities are geared toward children and adults of all ages. “This year’s Stagecoach Days will be the best in our park’s history,”stated Event Coordinator Gregg Giacopuzzi. “We have added many more family-friendly activities to the event this year so visitors will get a true taste of what Old Town was like in the 1800s.” The Stagecoach Days schedule is as follows. July 25-“Days of the Vaquero”- Vaqueros were the first cowboys in California. Highly skilled horsemen and cattle herders, they were an integral part of the

early cattle trade in California. The day will celebrate their natural horsemanship techniques and other aspects of Californio culture. August 1 -“Trades That Shaped Westward Expansion” - As towns developed in the West so did the need for specialized trades and artisans. Old Town San Diego will present pivotal 19th century trades that helped shape the community of San Diego. August 8-“Soldiers and Citizens”- The military has been part of San Diego since its inception. Following the Mexican American War, dragoons, the Mormon Battalion and the Boundary Commission all had an impact on life in San Diego. August 15 - “TwainFest” - This wildly popular festival celebrates literacy and the

literary works of Mark Twain and other 19th-century authors. Excerpts from famous works will be presented by costumed San Diego actors at a variety of park venues throughout the day. Old Town San Diego State Historic Park, with the support of Boosters of Old Town and Fiesta de Reyes, is proud to offer these free activities for adults and children of all ages. The park is located on San Diego Avenue and Twiggs Street in San Diego, and is conveniently located next to the Old Town Transit Center, with Coaster, Trolley, and MTS bus service. Free parking is available at the CalTrans headquarters, just two blocks from the park at 4050 Taylor St. For more information, go to www.parks.ca.gov/oldtownsandiego

munity groups to introduce themselves.” About six months ago, an online auction was held at www.proxibid.com/aaapublicauction for the contents of the former postal building. Proxibid provided online bidding for AAA Public Auction's United States Postal Service District Hub Auction. The sale featured USPS collectibles and various types of machinery. No matter how the abandoned Midway Post Office ultimately is redeveloped, local planners want it to jibe with their community plan now being updated. Previously, Melanie Nickel, chair of the Midway Community Planning Group (MCPG), said the draft community plan lists an office park as the “first choice” for redeveloping the former postal site. She added there’s also an existing need for office space in the area, and for companies working with SPAWAR (Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command) in Point Loma. Nickel has previously said MCPG, which makes recommendations to the city on land-use for the Midway Dis-

ty’s management firm, Corky McMillin Cos. Spatafore said Liberty Public Market will deliver something much different than a shopping mall. His partnership with McMillin will bring about $3 million worth of infrastructure revisions to the space, as well as an outdoor patio area, though implemented without using modern design elements that would alter the historic integrity of the structure. The goal of the new marketplace, announced 10 months ago, is to open with 34 vendors of local origins to include a butcher, fish monger, baker, cheese specialist, juicer, tortilla maker

trict, a hodgepodge of commercial, industrial, office, limited residential and warehouse land uses, wouldn’t mind “some kind of mixed use … or a residential senior center,” on the abandoned postal site. “We want to be sure that whatever goes there does not make local traffic any worse than it already is,” Nickel said. Midway planners have also said they want to see the redevelopment of the old postal building and environs acknowledge its aviary roots, being located in the Dutch Flats Urban Village. Dutch Flats was once the testing grounds of San Diego aviation pioneer Charles Lindbergh. Nickel suggested the nod to the site’s historical nature could take the form of “open space or an historic plaza on the property dedicated to Dutch Flats and Lindbergh,” rather than the establishment of “a museum or gift shop” onsite. “We have no recommendation about whether the building remains or is torn down as part of a bigger project,” Nickel said previously on behalf of MCPG, noting any new construction “would have to observe the 30foot height limit.”

and more. Two separate areas have also been reserved for wine and beer merchants. Previously, Spatafore divulged that the market’s merchant mix was to include Moo Time Creamery, an ice cream and frozen yogurt parlor that is part of Blue Bridge Hospitality’s portfolio. The market lineup might also fold in a couple of food-related merchandisers selling cookbooks and kitchen supplies. Spatafore previously said he hoped to build a test kitchen within the market that would provide additional cooking space for vendors and serve as a demo platform for local farmers. He also foresees it as a rentable option for chefs who want to conduct pop-up dinners and other culinary events.

COMMUNITY Point Loma High to hold 90th Anniversary Gala, will revive the school’s hall of fame BY SCOTT HOPKINS | THE BEACON An upcoming 90th Anniversary Gala celebration of Point Loma High School's history will coincide with the induction of newly elected members of a revived hall of fame that plans to add new alumni annually. The Peninsula's only public high school opened its doors on Sept. 22, 1925 to 386 students in grades 7-12 and a staff of 30 teachers under the leadership of Principal Pete Ross. It is San Diego's third-oldest high school. Today's campus, overseen by Principal Hans Becker, serves a student body of 2,000 with about 125 teachers, staff members and numerous volunteers. The school has presented diplomas to tens of thousands of graduates, and many of them have sent children, grandchildren and even great-grandchildren to the Chatsworth Boulevard campus – perhaps one reason why so many alumni hold the school in such esteem and proudly proclaim its motto: "Once a Pointer, Always a Pointer!" Many of those alumni along with current and former staff members and their families will gather to renew revered friendships, share laughter and honor their alma mater in a festive evening of food, music and nostalgia on Oct. 24 at the San Diego Hilton Resort & Spa, 1775 East Mission Bay Drive. Heading the event are co-chairs Maria Virissimo-Gibson and Dinisa Valadao. They are assisted by Volunteer chair Andrea Justus and Auction co-chairs Paula Cohen and Toni Curtis.

Pointer alum Don Larsen, who pitched a perfect game in the 1956 World Series, returned PHOTO BY SCOTT HOPKINS to visit his alma mater several years ago.

The event's stated goal is "to raise $50,000 to support our school initiatives and continue to provide the best education possible for our students." Event tickets are $85 each until the end of September. They can be purchased at pointlomahighschool90thgala.mydagsite.com. Also on the website, patrons can purchase tables for 10, ranging from $1,000 to $1,500. These can include coaches and former athletes in a "Sports Package" for $1,250.

Hall of fame One highlight of the evening will be the induction of the newest members of the Point Loma High School Alumni Hall of Fame. The hall of fame was begun about 15 years ago and remained dormant until now. Alumni director Kim Jessop Moore identified nine persons who have been inducted to date. They include: Civic leaders, athletes and philanthropists Malin Burnham and Peter Peckham, artists Suzy Spafford and Steven Correia, baseball's Don Larsen, sailing's Lowell North, actress Marion Ross, film editor Joe Hutshing and banker John Rebelo. Information on the hall of fame, including all rules and material needed for nominations, is on the alumni website at www.plhsalumni.org. Nominees must have graduated from PLHS at least 10 years ago and have achieved prominence in their chosen field locally, nationally or internationally who will inspire future students and alumni. Categories include Academics, Athletics, Arts/Entertainment, Professional/Military, Philanthropy/Humanitarian and Science/Medicine. Nomination packets must include all required materials and are due July 31. On Aug. 10, a list of candidates will be posted at www.plhsalumni.wix.com/Fame and sent to everyone on the Alumni News e-mail list. By Aug. 24, people may submit a "statement of support" for nominated candidates. The 500-word maximum endorsement will be considered in the selection process. In mid-Sept. newly elected inductees will be notified by certified mail and the list posted online. Moore is also preparing a timeline of the school's 90-year history for the gala. Any significant events alums feel should be included can be sent to her at pointers@plhsalumni.org.

BARTON CONTINUED FROM Page 1

"I walked halfway down the OB pier the other day," Barton revealed. "I often use the pier to mark progress." As he nears the unpleasant anniversary of the October 2012 shooting, Barton is anything but sullen. Instead, his quick smile and upbeat personality radiate as he reels off some of his most recent accomplishments. "One milestone I've achieved very recently is that I don't need any ankle support, meaning I can wear any shoe, Barton said. "My type of brain injury decreases motion/sensation and stability on my left side. It's called hemiplegia, and lately I noticed my left ankle became so strong I can wear low-top shoes, which is my style." With this new ability, Barton was able to happily discard a brace he wore on his leg for years. That brace "really severely hurt my outfit," Barton said with a smile. "Now I"m able to choose what I'll wear." And, several other major changes have lifted Barton's spirits. "I am now away from my family in an apartment (Sherman Heights) with a caregiver," he said. "I definitely feel far, far more independent. I'm finally in my own environment with a work space and an area to hang out with my friends. and play my music loud. I can go have lunch with my mom or my family can come see me." Barton recently enjoyed walking, with his caregiver mainly observing, from his new home to a nearby taco shop where he relaxed and enjoyed his favorite drink (Jamaica) before walking back to his apartment. And, he has found a girlfriend. While at a surprise party for his cousin, Barton met Kayleb, and the two "hit it off really well." "She's helping me regain my actual self, my actual Will Barton. She's helping re-immerse myself into the world, and she's also an artist. We go to the beach a lot and she walks on the pier with me."

A current focus for doctors is Barton's right arm, which for some time "I couldn't lift against gravity," he recalls. He struggles with a proposed surgery specialists feel may free his right hand from its current state, locked in an awkward position. "I've undergone vast therapy efforts with my right arm," Barton said. "Initially, (medical personnel) were expecting it to have no mobility whatsoever nor regular blood flow and become a degenerative limb that would eventually turn black and be a candidate for amputation." But his arm largely recovered and "I'm able to lift it over my head." While Barton has been told that damaged nerves stop healing after a three-year period, he has doubts about the proposed procedure doctors say would allow him to effectively grasp objects. "I've been trying to steer clear of surgery," Barton said, "because I don't think it's natural. Maybe by connecting some muscle to a tendon I could have some active grasp, but I don't have any knowledge of the outcome, so it's fearful for me. I would love to reach out to the medical community and check the history on nerve/tendon surgery so when I make my decision, it's one I won't regret." Barton, who continues to produce paintings while holding the brush in his mouth, is excited about a new relationship with a company in Germany that pays mouthpainters and markets their work around the world. "There are 800 American members," he said, "and I just signed a three-year contract to become a student member. They will evaluate all my work and progression as an artist. I'm trying to give my work a modern Southern California view, a lifestyle coveted by everyone." While Barton's achievements and recovery continue, costs mount daily for medical treatments, therapy and caregivers. The account originally opened in 2012 by supporters (Friends of Will Barton) at Chase Bank, 1740 Rosecrans St. in Point Loma, remains open and donations are greatly appreciated.

Adventures with Helene

Exploring the coves and caves at Sunset Cliffs BY HELENE GERASIMCHUK | THE BEACON There are so many amazing places in San Diego to explore. Sunset Cliffs is the perfect example of cliffs, caves, and incredible views right in my backyard. One Friday afternoon, my friend and I headed down to the cliffs to see what we could find. We started out walking along the coastline until we reached a big crowd of people cliff jumping. Although technically prohibited, people choose to jump at their own risk. Across the way at a much smaller jump, a girl was building up the courage to take her first leap into the water. Her friends encouraged her by chanting her name, which the crowd quickly picked up on, until she committed to the jump. Others were more experienced and showcased flips and twists. The next spot we checked out was the small beach area that had beachgoers down by the water. This isn’t a common beach spot, as there are no stairs to get down to the sand in a convenient fashion. We kept walking down the trail to a rocky area that led down to the water. The large rocks and low tide provided for a fairly simple climb. When we reached the bottom, we walked a bit along the coast and explored some large caves and cliffs

carved out by the ocean. The sun shining down and warm water temperatures encouraged me to swim out to a large rock that was a short distance away. Once I climbed up to the top, I was rewarded with a grand view of the ocean. There are so many small nooks and coves to explore once you get down to the water. The following weekend, I took my

There are many places to take music lessons in San Diego, but nothing comes close to Rock and Roll San Diego. Located next to the Valley View Casino Center (aka the Sports Arena), it’s a full-service, one-stop location for musicians, offering everything from instrument repair to rehearsal rooms, with music instruction one of the key elements. What truly sets them apart is the caliber of the teachers brought in to work with students, including such music legends as guitarist Johnny Vernazza (The Elvin Bishop Group) and bassist John Avila (Oingo Boingo), as well as rising stars such as guitarist Mike Ruggirello. Ruggirello is a native San Diegan, whose fretwork recently brought him to the attention of Canadian music school, Guitar Workshop Plus, taking part in their inaugural San Diego program at Cal State San Marcos. “It’s a very condensed schedule of practicing, rehearsing, and gigging,” he said. “It's the equivalent to being in the special forces for teaching,” he joked. Ruggirello has already been confirmed as an instructor at next year’s sessions, though in the meantime, he can be found at Rock and roll San Diego, Monday through Thursday and Saturdays. While the subject matter might have been a variable, the odds that he would become a teacher of some sort were always stacked in his favor. “I come from a family of teachers, my late mother is the main influence,” Ruggirello said. “I enjoy being able to explain and describe a musical subject matter.” Direct family influence is also behind his musical instrument choice. “I have been playing guitar 27 years and I've been performing for over 24 years,” he recalled. “I remember my aunt Kim telling me to grow my hair out and get an earring and it would be cool if I played guitar,” he laughed.

More directly, “I was listening to Metallica and the song “The Shortest Straw” came on and I was immediately hooked on how the guitar sounded.” He also cites Jimmy Page, Joe Pass and Ritchie Blackmore as major influences. “I’m a rock player, but I totally dig funk, as well as R&B. Jazz is another passion of mine and also play a lot of acoustic in the Spanish vein, particularly at solo dates.” Interestingly, unlike many players, and despite decades as a performer, Ruggirello doesn’t have a favorite instrument, though he is endorsed by iconic guitar Tremolo manufacturer, Floyd Rose. “I'm still a big kid, so I like new guitars and new amps,” he said. Ruggirello teaches students from beginners to advanced players, but for him one part of the lesson plan is key. “I want my students to always know their intervals,” he said. “I constantly remind my students how important it is to think in intervals and associate numbers with sound. Improvising is key,” he said. “Musicians are the masters of improvising, not comedians.” Ruggirello released a solo album this past December, Vol. 1, but much of his stage time is spent with the rock band Fusebox, who he has performed with for 24 years. While the band has sterling original material, they have also earned a rep for their quirky covers selections. “We play ’80s songs by artists like Joe Jackson, Yaz, Van Halen, Frank Zappa, etc. Our crowd loves our covers because we play tunes that surprise you.” For his part Ruggirello is happy to be able to help the next generation of musicians on their way, while at the same time striving to make an impact on the greater music community. The music business is tougher than ever, but he’s determined to make it his life. “I don't care how tough it gets,” he said. “I will always be out there playing, because I love practicing music and getting better on my instrument.”

After 38 years, Great News closing its doors By KEITH ANTIGIOVANNI There is bad news for generations of Pacific Beach residents and longtime customers as Great News (1788 Garnet Ave.) will be closing its doors for good at the end of July – 38 years after it opened for business at Pacific Plaza. The cooking school officially closed on June 30. “There were rumors that I lost my lease here but none of that is true. My landlords at Pacific Plaza have been great all of these years. I’ve decided to retire. It's time,” Great News owner Ron Eisenberg said. Eisenberg also confirmed that he will not be moving the store to a new location nor does he

we opened the cooking school in 1996,” Eisenberg said. Then after five years of selling cookware, Great News expanded its business again and opened the cooking school. While it was a cooking school, Great News earned the San Diego A-List award for “Best Housewares” eight straight years starting in 2007 through last year in 2014. “When we opened in 1977 I was just a kid,” Eisenberg said. “38 years in Pacific Beach have been good for everyone.” From now until the last day the store will be open (July 31) all items will be on sale.

Home prices in San Diego County edged up 0.6 percent in April, part of a broader increase in housing costs around the country, according to the Standard & Poor's Case-Schiller Home Price Indices released Tuesday. The indices were created by taking the price of housing in 20 large markets across the U.S. in January 2000, assigning them a value of 100, and tracking their subsequent rise and fall. San Diego's index stood at 209.88 in April, representing more than

a doubling in value over 16 years. The increase is the third-fastest in the country, behind Los Angeles and San Francisco, and barely edging out the 209.82 mark in Washington, D.C. The national 20-city index rose 1.1 percent in April to 177.01. For the year, the increase was 4.9 percent. San Diego area home prices are up 4.5 percent since April 2014. "Home prices continue to rise across the country, but the pace is not accelerating," said David Blitzer, managing

director and chairman of the Index Committee at S&P Dow Jones Indices. "Moreover, consumer expectations are consistent with the current pace of price increases," Blitzer said. "A recent national survey published by the New York Fed showed the average expected price increase among both owners and renters is 4.1 percent." He said recent reports indicate that sales of new and existing homes are increasing, and construction starts were higher in May. -- City News Service

OPINION

City should install cigarette butt bins along Sunset Cliffs (This letter was sent to Councilmember Zapf's office, and before that Councilmember Falconer's office, trying to get some help. It was also eventually sent to the Peninsula Beacon.) Dear Councilmember Zapf and Mr. McGuirk: I appreciated Mr. McGuirk's response to my email of last week, and am still awaiting a response as to my concerns about how to combat the huge litter problem on Sunset Cliffs as we await the invasion of the summer hordes. The attached photo of cigarette butts is yesterday's take from 15 minutes of cleaning up a 50 foot stretch along the cliffs. I don't need to tell you that the inevitable destination of these nonbiogradable filters is the ocean. Again, I reiterate my plea that the city install cigarette butt receptacles along the cliffs. When I raised the issue with then-Councilman Faulconer, the response I got was that smoking is illegal on the cliffs and that therefore we could have no receptacles. Until the city is able to enforce the law with expensive humans stationed along the cliffs, I suggest we put receptacles up telling folks that the area is a No Smoking area and that they should put their butts out. On a related note, one of the large cement garbage bins has been removed from its place on the cliffs. I don't know why, but we need it. And while we are at it with my wish list: how about a recycle bin or two on the cliffs? Finally: glass is banned at the beach, but the real damage to the sea life and the ocean are plastic and cans. If and when we get our park rangers, then perhaps we could ask them to enforce a ban on those items as well. As you know, I'm an expert on trash. Thank you, and I Iook forward to doing what I can to help resolve this huge problem. Ruth Hargrove Ocean Beach
