Temecula unites in protest of SDG&E Golden Pacific Powerlink
Julie Reeder Mercy Air landed on the southbound I-15 near Rainbow Valley Road, to transport a victim with life-threatening injuries from a rollover crash. Another victim with life-threatening injuries was taken by ground transport. The SigAlert forced the closure of all southbound lanes of Interstate 15 near Rainbow Valley Road, according to the California Highway Patrol. The crash was reported at 7:46 p.m. Witnesses told dispatchers a vehicle rolled over multiple times on the northbound side before crossing the center divider into the southbound lanes. One caller reported the vehicle was “still flipping” as it crossed the freeway. Dispatch logs indicate the collision involved two vehicles, including a white Infiniti and a Nissan.

Temecula leaders and residents rallied at the Duck Pond on Saturday, August 1, in opposition to the proposed Golden Link Power Project. Valley News/ Michael Scalise/Black Tie Productions photo Julie Reeder Publisher Over one hundred elected officials, business leaders, wine industry representatives and residents stood united last Saturday, August 1, at the Temecula Duck Pond in opposition to San Diego
Gas & Electric’s proposed Golden Pacific Powerlink, arguing that the current route threatens the Temecula Valley’s tourism economy, wine country, scenic character and public safety. The growing coalition includes the Temecula City Council, which has formally opposed
the project as currently proposed, along with Visit Temecula Valley, the Temecula Valley Winegrowers Association and numerous community members who have voiced concerns during public meetings and rallies. At the center of the opposition is SDG&E’s proposed 145-mile,
500-kilovolt overhead transmission line, which would pass through portions of Southwest Riverside County, including areas near state Route 79 South, Vail Lake, Galway Downs and the Temecula Parkway corridor near Temecula Creek.
Four displaced following late-night commercial structure fire in San Jacinto By Kaliegh Murphy
Cal Fire responded to the 600 block of De Anza at 11:19 p.m. on July 31 after receiving multiple emergency reports of a blaze at a commercial property. Upon arrival, the responding battalion chief requested additional resources to manage the incident. Firefighters successfully contained the blaze, preventing further spread. Despite the building’s commercial designation, the fire displaced a family of four. The American Red Cross was requested to the scene to provide emergency assistance and lodging for the one adult and three children. There were no immediate reports of casualties provided in the initial dispatch. Any individuals involved or evaluated at the

Soboba welcomes McDonald’s to the area
Soboba Band of Luiseño Indians
Although it was called a “soft” opening, hardcore McDonald’s fans crowded the parking lot of the newest fast food restaurant’s location in San Jacinto, June 23. Guests of all ages gathered outside for a ribbon cutting and welcome messages by local dignitaries prior to the opening at noon. One month later, the three-day Grand Opening took place with even more fun to offer. Each day had a special theme, with July 23 being a true celebration, July 24 offering Awareness Day to highlight important nonprofits such as FFA and Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC), which help support families staying close to their children while they receive medical care. July 25 was See SOBOBA, page A-2

Temecula residents gather at the Duck Pond in opposition to the Golden Link Power Project. Valley News/Michael Scalise/Black Tie Productions photo POND, page A-2 Community leaders say the towering transmission structures would permanently alter one of Southern California’s premier tourism destinations while introducing additional wildfire concerns in an area already recognized as a high fire hazard. SDG&E says, “California is entering a period of unprecedented growth in electricity demand as more aspects of daily life depend on electricity.” They say the project would “Support a stronger, more resilient electric grid that can deliver energy where it’s needed most,” and reduce transmission congestion that can contribute to higher costs and reduced reliability during extreme weather or emergencies. SDG&E argues that it did not decide on its own to build the project. “The need for new transmission is identified through California’s independent statewide planning process, not by SDG&E.” The company says the California Independent System Operator (CAISO) determined additional
transmission capacity is needed to maintain reliability and support California’s clean-energy goals, while SDG&E’s role is to design, develop and operate the project if it is approved. The Temecula Valley Winegrowers Association voiced their concerns, saying the project would jeopardize decades of investment that transformed the valley into one of California’s premier wine destinations. “Temecula Valley Wine Country is not only an economic engine for our region, but also a protected agricultural destination that families, visitors, and businesses have invested decades into building,” said Mike Rennie, president of the Temecula Valley Winegrowers Association. “Placing massive transmission infrastructure through the heart of wine country threatens the rural character, scenic beauty, and long-term sustainability that make this region so special. We strongly urge SDG&E and state decision-makers to pursue alternative routes that protect our wineries, vineyards, residents, visitors, and wildlife from
unnecessary environmental and wildfire risks.” Opponents argue that the project provides little direct benefit to Temecula while placing significant environmental, economic and safety burdens on the community. According to Visit Temecula Valley and the Winegrowers Association, the transmission line is intended to move electricity across utility service territories rather than serve local customers. The organizations are urging state regulators and SDG&E to consider alternative routes that avoid the Temecula Valley’s agricultural and tourism corridors. The opposition reflects a rare level of unity among elected officials, the tourism industry, agricultural leaders and residents, all of whom say preserving Temecula’s scenic landscapes and internationally recognized wine country is critical to the region’s economy and quality of life. The Golden Pacific Powerlink remains under review by state regulators, who will ultimately determine whether the project moves forward and which route, if any, is approved.
dubbed Hero Day that put the spotlight on first responders and public safety in general. Familiar characters were present at both events. The Hamburglar, Birdie the Early Bird, and Grimace posed for photos with youngsters and made their way through the long line of hungry diners to bring smiles to their faces before the doors were opened for ordering. The newest location is at the Crossroads business area, which is owned by the Soboba Band of Luiseño Indians. For the first day launch, the restaurant reached out to Soboba to request bird singers, a blessing, and Tribal Council remarks. They worked closely with Joe Ontiveros and Jessica Valdez from Soboba’s Cultural Resource Department. The Andreas family offered some Cahuilla bird songs and was joined by several dancers. A blessing was given by Soboba’s Tribal Executive Officer Steven Estrada. Estrada then welcomed everyone, and Tribal Council members Daniel Valdez, Monica Herrera and Adona Salgado were introduced. Estrada said it is nice to have a major brand operation be the first to move into the Crossroads space. “It’s good to see long lines because it just shows the need and use for the community overall,” Estrada said. “Tribal Council had some input on the design, so it complimented Crossroads overall.” He said the June 23 event was not just a ribbon-cutting ceremony but evidence of the Tribe’s resiliency, self-determination, and economic growth. Several years ago, Soboba purchased the off-reservation property, master planned it and put in all the infrastructure. “We are here today welcoming a new business within the valley and into the community,” Estrada said. “They are not just providing economic support for the Tribe but economic support for the community as well by way of job opportunities, all contributing to the local economy so thank you to all who came out today.” June’s opening found many attendees of the ribbon-cutting ceremony and introductions using umbrellas to shade themselves from the heat. But inside, the griddles stayed hot all day long as eager guests ordered their famous cheeseburgers at the special price of 80 cents each. It’s no surprise that they sold nearly 2,000 of them, while serving more than 1,200 customers on that first day. Franchise owners/operators Randell Baremor and Ramin Ghaffari were recognized and applauded by Hemet/San Jacinto Chamber of Commerce and Greater San Jacinto Valley Chamber of Commerce representatives for their investment in the local community. Robert Graves, Director of Operations for a franchise group, spoke on behalf of business partners Baremor and Ghaffari. “We are truly honored to be part of the San Jacinto community,” he said. “From the beginning, our goal has been to be more than just a place where families can come together and share a meal. We strive to be a trusted neighbor, a dependable employer, and a positive force that continues to grow. We believe that a strong business helps build strong communities; that means creating meaningful jobs, providing opportunities for personal and professional development, and supporting our communities.” San Jacinto City Council members Alonso Ledezma, Valerie Vandever and Mayor Pro Tem Clarisa Sanchez were introduced by Mayor Crystal Ruiz, who
presented the franchisees with a certificate of recognition. It read, in part, “The City of San Jacinto welcomes you and recognizes the positive contributions your business will bring to our community. We look forward to your ongoing partnership in serving the residents of San Jacinto for years to come.” Ruiz said, “One of my first jobs was at McDonald’s; they’re like our family. We welcome the partnership between McDonald’s and Soboba, who are the cornerstone of our city.” Hemet Mayor Linda Krupa presented a certificate on behalf of the Hemet City Council to recognize their investment in the valley and wished them “continued prosperity and success in serving the residents and visitors of the valley.” The office of 5th District Supervisor Yxstian Gutierrez recognized McDonald’s commitment and contribution to economic growth in Riverside County. “We are grateful for the warm welcome we’ve received and look forward to serving our community with our delicious food for many years to come,” ARCS Training/HR Manager Elaine Contreras said. Leon Clausen of San Jacinto arrived at midnight on June 23 driving his 1964 Malibu SS. “I had this wild idea to do something spectacular like I was 17 again,” said the 42-year-old classic car enthusiast. I wanted to be the first person in the drive-thru of the new McDonald’s.” Clausen thought driving his classic car to this classic restaurant would be very fitting. He added that security did a great job throughout the night as others arrived to be near the front of the line when the great deals started being served at noon. For his efforts, Clausen was presented with a McDonald’s merchandise gift basket by San Jacinto Mayor Crystal Ruiz at the drive-thru window. On July 23–25 from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. each day, there were prizes, games and special offers to celebrate the official grand opening. All those involved looked forward to sharing great food and great memories with the community. “On behalf of McDonald’s, ARCS Restaurant Management, we would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to our incredible Team. It truly takes a village, and their dedication, hard work, and passion made our Soft Grand Opening a tremendous success,” Contreras said. “Most of all we would like to say thank you to the mayors, City Council members, Chambers of Commerce, Soboba Band of Luiseño Indians and Soboba Tribal Council, and the entire community for their support.” Franchisee Baremor said things are going smoothly and they have been busier than expected. Currently, there are about 55 employees working at the 24/7 site. No stranger to McDonald’s, Baremor has been involved with the fast-food chain since high school and worked for another franchisee in Orange County for 30 years. He partnered with Ghaffari 15 years ago and they now operate 18 stores. “It’s important to us to fit in with the community,” he said. “We don’t want this to be just another McDonald’s. Wherever we go, we have to connect to the community and that includes Soboba. We have been so happy with the way things have been going because we want this to be a destination McDonald’s.” Baremor said that everything See WELCOME, page A-3

City of Temecula Honors Longtime City Manager Aaron Adams’ Legacy of Fiscal Leadership and Exemplary Public Service; Announces Retirement and Succession Plan TEMECULA - The City of Temecula City Council honors City Manager Aaron Adams for a distinguished career of public service and transformational leadership that has helped shape Temecula into one of California’s safest, most family-friendly, desirable, and financially resilient cities. Aaron Adams began his career with the City of Temecula as an intern in May 1995 and steadily advanced through multiple positions and leadership roles before being appointed City Manager in 2012. His faith, devotion to family, and commitment to being “others-centered” provided the foundation for his approach to managing the City, which has centered on “building greatness and maintaining excellence.” As the longest serving City Manager in the City’s history, Adams will officially retire at the end of the calendar year. His distinguished career culminates with one of local government’s highest honors: being named California’s City Manager of the Year for 2026, announced earlier this year by the California City Management Foundation. As Aaron enters his final fiscal year as City Manager, the adoption of the FY2026-2027 budget marks a defining milestone that eliminated all facility debt and other long-term obligations in its first month. This achievement reflects the prudence and long-term financial strategy advanced by Aaron Adams to accelerate payments of the City’s outstanding obligations, along with the City Council’s decisive stewardship of public resources to pay off all debt years ahead of schedule. The result: the City saved taxpayers more than $47.7 million in future interest costs, and strengthened Temecula’s position as one of the most financially sound cities in California. Mayor Jessica Alexander praised Adams’ leadership and lasting impact on the City, stating, “Aaron’s leadership has helped build one of the strongest financial foundations of any city in California, and perhaps the nation. His unwavering commitment to fiscal responsibility has enabled Temecula to eliminate its debt obligations, invest in public safety and infrastructure, and preserve the financial flexibility to protect and enhance our community’s quality of life. Beyond these achievements, he has intentionally developed a strong leadership team and embraced succession planning, leaving the City with the stability and organizational strength to carry forward. On behalf of the City Council and our community, we are deeply grateful for his exceptional leadership and lasting legacy.” Brooke Nunn, Chief Executive Officer and President of the Temecula Valley Chamber of Commerce, states, “Aaron is truly a ‘leader of leaders’ within our community, and under his guidance Temecula has experienced remarkable economic growth. The City’s reputation for fiscal responsibility and a strong budget, coupled with its continued reinvestment in infrastructure and the community, creates confidence among businesses to invest here as well. That environment has helped make Temecula a destination for businesses to establish,
grow, and succeed.” Brooke adds, “Aaron will certainly be missed, but perhaps one of the greatest reflections of his success is that he planned for this moment, developing a strong succession plan for Temecula. And fortunately for all of us, Aaron calls Temecula home, so we know where to find him!” City of Temecula • 41000 Main Street • Temecula, CA 92590 • 951-694-6444 • TemeculaCA.gov As City Manager, Adams oversaw unprecedented economic growth that helped triple General Fund revenues, which he strategically leveraged to strengthen the City’s long-term financial position. The City maintained consecutive balanced budgets, increased General Fund reserves by 148%, and grew its Asset Management Fund by more than 650%. Significant investments included $275 million from Measure S for public safety, infrastructure, and community amenities, while maintaining strong fiscal discipline. Public safety staffing expanded by nearly one-third, and the City’s Capital Improvement Program grew from 49 to 96 projects, representing an increase from $437 million to nearly $1 billion in planned infrastructure investments. The City also secured hundreds of millions of dollars in outside grants and partnerships to maximize local taxpayer resources. These accomplishments were accompanied by 14 years of consecutive Distinguished Budget, Capital Improvement Program, and Annual Financial Report awards from the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) and the California Society of Municipal Finance Officers (CSMFO). Beyond the City’s finances, Adams helped guide many of Temecula’s most transformative projects over the course of his career. These included major Interstate 15 improvements; construction of the Ronald H. Roberts Temecula Public Library, City Hall and Town Square, which helped revitalize Old Town Temecula; and expanded higher education opportunities with California State University San Marcos and Mt. San Jacinto College. Other significant investments included growing the City’s roadway system and providing up to $10 million annually for street maintenance; building new parks, playgrounds, hockey rinks, skate parks, pickleball courts, pump tracks, recreational centers, and multipurpose trails; and purchasing SCE streetlights, saving the City approximately $750,000 annually. These investments were complemented by numerous award-winning programs, community events, and services for youth, seniors, veterans and military families, individuals with special needs, and quality-of-life amenities for all residents and visitors, helping shape Temecula as it grew from approximately 40,000 residents when Adams joined the City in 1995 to more than 113,000 today. Annette Brown, Interim Chief Executive Officer of Visit Temecula Valley, adds, “Aaron’s decades of personal and professional experience in Temecula provided him a unique understanding that being a destination City and the heart of Southern
California Wine Country requires continually investing in public safety, infrastructure, and the beauty of our community.” Brown adds, “On behalf of our Board, we thank Aaron for his longstanding collaboration and commitment to the investments that have helped Temecula remain a premier destination, proudly welcoming more than three million visitors each year.” Adams reflected on the accomplishments as the result of a shared commitment to responsible governance, and states, “None of these accomplishments were achieved alone. They reflect the vision of our elected City Council leadership, our closeknit community stakeholders, our residents, the dedication of an exceptional executive team, and the professionalism of employees across every department. Here at the City, we are committed to long-term planning, living within our means, and making strategic investments that have grown and protected our community amenities while protecting taxpayer dollars. I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to serve the City that I love, and where I raised my family, and I am proud of the strong financial foundation that has been built for the next generation to continue.” Adams adds, “While the projects and services were incredibly important to our City, I will forever be grateful for the lives that I had the opportunity and privilege to affect as a public servant, both internally and externally. These often were life-changing moments for another human being, and I will take away these memories as likely the greatest accomplishment, legacy, and investment I made while working for the City of Temecula.” Adams’ culture of organizational excellence has focused on employee development, succession planning, and advancement from within, contributing to years of labor peace, union support, and strong employee attraction, retention, and morale. Temecula is also a highly sought-after Contract City for public safety. “Deputies specifically request assignment to the Southwest Sheriff Station because of the Temecula City contract, and the unwavering support Aaron and the Temecula City Council have demonstrated towards our law enforcement professionals,” said Temecula Police Chief Mark Rigali. Temecula Fire Chief John Crater echoes the same sentiment. “We have firefighters who specifically ask to work in Temecula. The City’s strong reputation for supporting public safety, established by Aaron and the City Council, allows us to attract exceptional, high-caliber personnel who want to serve here.” Rigali adds” Public safety is a priority, and the City has invested heavily to ensure deputies have the resources and technology necessary to keep Temecula the safe and thriving community it is.” Mayor Alexander adds, “Although Aaron Adams’ tenure as City Manager will conclude in the near future, the vision, values, and strong organizational foundation established during his leadership will continue guiding the City for years to come. To ensure a seamless leadership transition, the Temecula City Council
Aaron Adams. Valley News / Courtesy photo unanimously appointed Assistant City Manager Luke Watson as City Manager alongside Aaron Adams. Having worked closely together for decades, Aaron Adams will continue mentoring Luke Watson throughout the sixmonth transition before concluding his tenure.” Luke Watson’s promotion will become effective in the near term upon execution of his employment agreement at an upcoming City Council meeting. Luke Watson began his career with the City of Temecula in 2004. Over the past 22 years, he has gained extensive operational expertise, strategic insight, and a deep understanding of the organization through a series of executive roles. The City Council’s appointment reflects their confidence in Watson’s proven ability to guide complex municipal initiatives, including land use, long-range planning, development, and municipal operations, all of which will play a vital role in Temecula’s continued evolution. Through his service as Director of Community Development, Deputy City Manager, and Assistant City Manager, Watson has consistently demonstrated sound financial stewardship, organizational excellence, and a steadfast commitment to exceptional public service. Remarkably, both Adams and Watson began their careers with the City as interns; a testament to
Temecula’s longstanding commitment to developing leaders from within. Their shared journey reflects an organizational culture built on mentorship, succession planning, and excellence in public service. On a personal note, Luke has long-established roots in Temecula. He grew up here, graduated from Temecula Valley High School, and is now raising his family within the City. Luke Watson states, “Aaron is an extraordinary mentor, leader, and friend. His vision, integrity, and unwavering commitment to the City of Temecula have established a foundation that has Temecula well positioned for continued success under the next generation of City leadership. I am honored by the trust the City Council has placed in me and humbled to continue building upon the remarkable legacy of excellence that Aaron leaves behind.” Aaron Adams states, “I have had the privilege of watching Luke dedicate more than two decades to serving the City of Temecula with professionalism, sound judgment, and a profound dedication to our community. Luke embodies the values that have long defined this organization: service, excellence, and accountability. I cannot think of a more qualified or capable leader to guide Temecula into its next chapter.”

County renews fire protection and emergency medical services agreement with City of Lake Elsinore Joe Naiman for the Valley News The County of Riverside renewed its agreement with the City of Lake Elsinore to provide fire and emergency medical services for the city. The Riverside County Board of Supervisors voted 5-0 July 28 to approve a new agreement with the City of Lake Elsinore. The agreement will be for a five-year period ending June 30, 2031. Lake Elsinore has contracted with the county for fire protection
and emergency medical services since 1990. The previous contract took effect on July 1, 2023, and was for a three-year period ending June 30, 2026. The county contracts with the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection for firefighting and paramedic personnel, and CalFire transitioned to 66-hour workweeks during the period of the last agreement. The Riverside County Fire Department added one fire captain, one fire apparatus engineer paramedic, and one Firefighter
II paramedic during Fiscal Year 2024-25 to align with the new work schedule. The county will provide 39 full-time personnel including three vacation relief positions. Two engineers, two firefighter medics, and one engineer medic will be assigned to Station 10 in the 400 block of West Graham Avenue. Two captains, two engineers, and two firefighter medics will be based at Station 85 in the 29400 block of Grand Avenue. Two captains, two engineers, and two firefighter medics will work
out of Station 94 in the 22700 block of Railroad Canyon Road. Three engineers, three firefighters, and three firefighter medics will be at Station 97 in the 41700 block of Rosetta Canyon Drive. Three truck captains do not have assignment to a specific station. The vacation relief staff will consist of two firefighter medics and one engineer medic. The county will also provide an executive assistant, a deputy fire marshal, a fire safety specialist, and a fire safety inspector. The city’s reimbursement for
fire protection and emergency medical services also includes shares of support services and fire engine expenses. The estimated City of Lake Elsinore cost will be $12,872,048 for Fiscal Year 2026-27, $13,504,568 in 2027-28, $14,168,679 during 2028-29, $14,168,679 in both 2029-30 and 2030-31. The June 23 Lake Elsinore City Council meeting included the city’s approval of the cooperative agreement.
County Planning Commission recommends converting Winchester commercial area to 148 houses Joe Naiman for the Valley News
The County of Riverside’s Planning Commission has recommended that a 16.5-acre site in a Winchester specific plan area be converted from commercial retail use to 148 single-family residential lots. The Planning Commission’s 5-0 vote July 22 recommended that the Riverside County Board of Supervisors approve a general plan amendment and specific plan amendment to change
the land use designation of the 16.5-acre site from Community Development: Commercial Retail (CD:CR) to 9.5-acres of Community Development: Medium High Density Residential (CD:MHDR) and 6.5-acres of Community Development: High Density Residential (CD:HDR) with the other 0.5 acres being used for roads and walkways. The MHDR area would have 66 homes while also including an expansion to Fieldview Park. The HDR area would include 82 houses. The tract map and plot plan would
also be amended if the Board of Supervisors ratifies the Planning Commission recommendation. Meritage Homes MCL Holdings, Inc., owns the land north of Benton Road, south of Field View Road, east of Moser Road, and west of Washington Street. The Board of Supervisors approved the specific plan in April 1997. The original plan included a total of 4,679 residential units along with areas for commercial, recreational, and school uses. Changes were anticipated, so the Environmental Impact Report
analyzed a scenario with 5,806 residential units. Eight amendments to the specific plan have been approved by the county supervisors. The minimum lot size would be 2,756 square feet for the MHDR planning area and 1,919 square feet for the HDR site. Those exceed the minimum development standards of 2,500 square feet for the 9.5-acre area and 1,900 square feet for the 6.5-acre portion. The parking requirement of 2.5 spaces per unit equates to 370 spaces which would be met by 296
garage and 75 on-street parallel parking spaces. The expansion to Fieldview Park will be by 0.85 acres, and an additional parking lot would be accessed from Washington Street. The Valley‑Wide Recreation and Park District will determine the final recreational facilities which will be added on that area; the preliminary concept includes a tot lot, a minipitch court, a volleyball court, and additional shade structures.
Temecula City Council approves architectural contract for civic center and Old Town parking garage improvements Joe Naiman for the Valley News A 5-0 Temecula City Council vote July 28 approved an architectural services contract for work on the civic center and Old Town parking garage. The action approved a $111,100 contract with Nichols-Melburg & Rosetto, AIA & Associates, Inc. The contract term is for three years, although the city council also authorized
the city manager to approve two one-year extensions if necessary and to adjust the billing rates annually based on consumer price index changes. The city manager was also authorized to approve additional related services of up to 10 percent of the agreement amount, or $11,100. The Civic Center and Old Town Parking Garage project includes security enhancements within the lobby and reception areas of the civic center, exterior
painting, repairs to pre-cast concrete panels, remediation of roof and building-envelope leaks, and a full structural and maintenance condition assessment of the parking garage. A request for proposals for architectural and engineering services was issued June 2. Two proposals were received. The California Government Code requires professional services agreements to be awarded based on demonstrated com-
petence and the professional qualifications necessary for the satisfactory performance of the services required rather on the lowest price. A selection panel comprised of city staff evaluated the proposals based on professional experience, qualifications of key personnel, understanding of the project, technical approach, local and regional experience, staffing capacity, responsiveness, and overall ability to support the
city’s public works objectives. Nichols-Melburg & Rosetto, which is based in Redding, was deemed to be the better firm for the work. NMR was the original architect for the civic center, which provides insight into the facility’s design and construction, and has worked with the City of Temecula in the past. City staff and NMR negotiated a detailed scope of services along with a fee.
Flood control district approves debris removal funding agreement with City of Murrieta Joe Naiman for the Valley News The Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District approved a funding agreement with the City of Murrieta for the removal of debris materials on flood control district
property within the city. The Riverside County Board of Supervisors, whose board members comprise the board of the Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District, voted 5-0 July 28 to approve the funding agreement between the flood control district
and the city. The flood control district’s general manager-chief engineer was authorized to take the necessary actions to implement the funding agreement. The flood control district will pay up to $75,000 each year during the next three fiscal years. The debris to be removed
will include trash, other debris, biological materials, and abandoned personal property. The city has drainage facility maintenance experience and resources, and utilizing the city to remove debris from the flood control district property will also reduce the risk of soil and water
contamination to residential, commercial, and park and recreation facilities near the flood control district property. The Murrieta City Council approved the agreement July 7.

Valley Resource Center, San Jacinto Sheriff’s Station, chambers of commerce, Temecula Sunrise Rotary, Boys and Girls Club, MilVet, Shoes That Fit, Hospice of the Valleys, Professional Women’s Roundtable Joe Naiman for the Valley News During the July 28 Riverside County Board of Supervisors meeting, Community Improvement Designation funding was allocated for Valley Resource Center, the San Jacinto Sheriff’s Station, Temecula Sunrise Rotary, the Boys and Girls Club of Southwest County, MilVet, Shoes That Fit, Hospice of the Valleys, Professional Women’s Roundtable, and the Murrieta, Temecula, and San Jacinto chambers of commerce. The organizations are in two different supervisorial districts, so separate votes were taken for the use of District 3 allocations and District 5 grants. Both votes were 5-0. The District 3 budget of Chuck Washington provided $10,000 to Valley Resource Center, Inc., $5,000 apiece for Temecula Sunrise Rotary Foundation, the Boys and Girls Club of Southwest County, MilVet, and Shoes That Fit, $4,000 to the Murrieta Chamber of Commerce, $3,500 to Hospice of the Valleys, $2,500 to the Temecula Valley Chamber of Commerce, and $1,500 for Professional
Women’s Roundtable, Inc. Supervisor Yxstian Gutierrez used his District 5 budget to allocate $10,000 for the San Jacinto Sheriff’s Station and $750 to the Greater San Jacinto Valley Chamber of Commerce. Community Improvement Designation grants can be allocated to non-profit organizations, public agencies, county departments, or other organizations with programs which serve the social needs of the county’s population. Each county supervisor recommends the allocation of CID funding from his or her district budget, although a majority Board of Supervisors vote is needed to approve that recommendation. The Valley Resource Center in Hemet is a work training center with programs to provide developmentally disabled adults with vocational, social, and behavioral skills to prepare them for employment. The CID funding will support the Art in the Park program which provides program participants with an environment where they can explore their creativity, develop artistic skills, and foster meaningful social connections.
The Sheriff’s Department has annual community engagement events at the San Jacinto station including National Night Out, Trunk or Treat, Shop with a Cop, Cocoa with a Cop, and Candy Cane Lane. The CID allocation will help support those events. Temecula Sunrise Rotary has an annual Community Christmas Dinner which is free to the public. The meals are fully cooked, and the Rotary chapter also delivers meals to homebound senior citizens on Christmas Day. The CID funding will be used for that event which also includes distributing Christmas gifts to low-income families. The Boys and Girls Club of Southwest County has clubhouse locations in Temecula, Murrieta, and Lake Elsinore. The CID money will help cover expenses of the annual Our Kids Rock Gala which raises funds to support the organization’s after-school programs. MilVet is a Murrieta organization which provides workshops and other educational programs to encourage self-sustainability for military veterans, senior citizens, and families. MilVet will use the county funding for
its Military Care Packages Program which provides deployed military personnel with monthly care packages containing essential items to offer comfort and boost morale. Shoes That Fit provides athletic shoes to children in need. The CID grant will support the Shoes for Kids in Need Program which provides low-income children in the Third District with a pair of properly fitting sneakers. The Murrieta Chamber of Commerce includes Wildomar activity. Both Murrieta and Wildomar have State of the City address events which bring civic leaders and residents together to share updates on key initiatives and present the mayors’ visions for the cities’ futures. The CID award will support those State of the City events. Hospice of the Valleys is in Murrieta. The organization provides care to people with life-threatening illnesses. The CID funding will support the Senior Assistance Program which helps cover the direct costs of hospice care for seniors and severely disabled individuals. The activities of the Temecula Valley Chamber of Commerce
include an annual Women in Business Conference and Expo which provides residents with networking opportunities and access to educational speakers and a Student of the Month Program which recognizes high school seniors in the Temecula Valley Unified School District for their academic excellence. Both of those programs will be eligible for the CID grant approved July 28. Professional Women’s Roundtable is based in Murrieta and utilizes relationships, networking, and community involvement to help female professionals. An annual awards banquet recognizes young professional women in the community who are pursuing bachelor’s or graduate degrees and awards scholarships in support of their educational goals. The CID allocation will be used for that banquet. The San Jacinto Valley Chamber of Commerce has an annual Candy Corner Christmas event which includes entertainment and community engagement. The event is free to the public. The CID grant will help fund the costs of that event.

Flood control district approves funding agreement with Wildomar for Sedco drainage line Joe Naiman for the Valley News The Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District approved a cooperative funding agreement between the district and the City of Wildomar for Stage 2 of Line F-2 of the Sedco Master Drainage Plan. The agreement was approved on a 5-0 vote during the July 28 meeting of the Riverside County Board of Supervisors, who are also the board members of the Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District. The flood control district will contribute a maximum amount of $520,000 and will pay up to 61 percent of any utility relocations cost, up to 10 percent of administration costs related to the construction, and up to 10 percent of the bid price for construction
contract change orders. The city will be responsible for all other costs, including permitting. Stage 2 of Line F-2 will alleviate flooding issues, control sediment transport, and protect infrastructure and properties along Lemon Street, Lost Road, and Gafford Road. Approximately 1,200 linear feet of 42-inch and 54-inch reinforced concrete pipe will be constructed. Following the completion of the construction, the flood control district will assume ownership and responsibility for the operation and maintenance of the mainline storm drain facilities greater than 36 inches in diameter, while the city will own, operate, and maintain the associated inlets, connector pipes, and storm drains 36 inches or less in diameter within the city right-of-way.
County approves agreement with Menifee for Briggs Road slurry seal Joe Naiman for the Valley News The County of Riverside will be resurfacing part of Briggs Road, and an agreement with the City of Menifee will allow the county’s contractor to apply slurry seal treatment on 1,936 linear feet of the street within Menifee city limits. A 5-0 Riverside County Board of Supervisors vote July 28 approved the agreement between the county and the city. The city will reimburse the county for the construction and administration costs; including a $3,000 contingency the city’s reimbursement amount would be $34,390. The slurry seal treatment in Menifee will involve two con-
tiguous segments. The segment from Scott Road to approximately 532 feet north of Scott Road is 532 linear feet by 24 feet wide. The segment from approximately 532 feet north of Scott Road to Sharon Way is 1,402 linear feet by 34 feet wide. The city will deposit the $34,390 prior to the start of construction. If unforeseen circumstances cause an increase in the cost the contingency amount does not cover the city will cover those costs. The county will reimburse the city for any unspent portion of the deposit. The city will also issue an encroachment permit to the county at no cost and will pay for the time expenses of a city representative to coordinate the project with the county.

Supervisors approve admission fees for French Valley Discovery Hangar Joe Naiman for the Valley News The French Valley Discovery Hangar and Early Learning Center will hold its grand opening this Saturday, August 8. It is associated with the French Valley Library on Skyview Road and is not a hangar at French Valley Airport three miles away. The County of Riverside operates the French Valley Discovery Hangar, and on July 28 the Riverside County Board of Supervisors approved admission fees for the French Valley Discovery Hangar. The 5-0 vote established a $9.00 entrance fee per person. A 10 percent reduction for a family of four was included in the fee schedule. The new French Valley library is on an 11.33-acre parcel at the northwest corner of Winchester Road and Skyview Road and has approximately 25,000 square feet of space. Construction has been finished and the building has been approved for occupancy. Once the final contract numbers and amendments are confirmed the project’s notice of completion will be brought to the Board of Supervisors for approval. The French Valley Discovery Hangar and Early Learning Center is adjacent to the new
The French Valley Discovery Hangar will have its grand opening this Saturday, August 8, 2026. library and has approximately 13,000 square feet of space. The county’s Office of Development manages the French Valley Discovery Hangar and Early Learning Center. The inclusion of the word “hangar” allows an aviation theme for the handson facility designed to support STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) learning activity through interactive exhibits, historical content, and imaginative exploration. The French Valley Discovery Hangar and the Early Learning Center are in the same building but with different functions; the
Early Learning Center has four classrooms with a capacity for approximately 100 children along with administrative spaces, playgrounds, and a prepackaged food warming kitchen. The $9.00 per patron admission for the French Valley Discovery Hangar is projected to achieve full cost recovery and cover ongoing operations, staffing, lifecycle capital replacement, and a prudent annual contingency while maintaining a stable longterm fund balance, and that rate also preserves affordability and ensures broad community access to the programming.
Temecula City Council approves amendments to massage establishment ordinance Joe Naiman for the Valley News The Temecula City Council updated the city’s massage establishment ordinance. A 5-0 vote July 28 approved a second reading and adoption of the amendments to the ordinance. The city council had approved the first reading and introduction of the amendments July 14 on a 5-0 vote. The ordinance had previously defined massage as the scientific manipulation of the soft tissues of the human body, including bodywork such as reiki, trigger point, shiatsu, cupping, and lymphatic drainage. The amendments delete reiki from the definition of massage while defining reiki as an energy healing technique
aimed at reducing stress, inducing relaxation, and promoting healing by balancing the body’s energy fields. The definition notes that reiki may include the laying of hands above or upon a person’s body, but that manipulation of the soft tissue is not reiki. Previously, only the city council could revoke a massage establishment license if grounds for revocation existed and it was in the best interest of the health, welfare, or safety of the public to do that. The amendments grant the city manager or his or her designee the authority to revoke. The additions also note that the conduct of employees as well as the business itself would be grounds for revocation should any provision be violated.
County approves slurry seal agreement with Hemet Joe Naiman for the Valley News The County of Riverside approved an agreement with the City of Hemet to have the city reimburse the county for slurry seal resurfacing of Whittier Avenue within the Hemet city limits. The Riverside County Board of Supervisors voted 5-0 July 28 to approve the agreement. A county contract to cover the resurfacing of Whittier Avenue west of San Jacinto Street will also include the slurry seal treatment from San Jacinto Street to 800 feet east of San Jacinto Street. The portion of Whittier Avenue within the City of Hemet is 20 feet wide. The city requested that the county include that part
of Whittier Avenue in the construction contract. The agreement outlines the county’s responsibilities and the city’s responsibilities. The county will be responsible for funding the entirety of the work within city limits; a deposit of $11,720 will include additional city payments should unforeseen circumstances cause an increase in the construction cost while any unspent money will be refunded should a contingency amount not be needed. The city will also issue an encroachment permit to the county at no cost and will pay for the time expenses of a city representative to coordinate the project with the county. The Hemet City Council approved the agreement May 20.

Medicare Part D Is Not Going Away By Marc Sigmon, MBA Marc Sigmon Insurance Agency
Far too often, a headline causes panic or concern that proves to be unnecessary. Recent national headlines claiming that a Part D subsidy program is ending—and others questioning whether Medicare Part D itself is going away— do nothing but create undue fear and confusion within an already complex system. The truth is that the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, or CMS, publicly announced this temporary premium-stabilization program in July 2024. It was created to help participating stand-alone Part D plans adjust to changes made by the Inflation Reduction Act. The financial assistance was provided by the government to participating insurance carriers; it was not a consumer-assistance program like Extra Help. Although its conclusion could affect certain plan premiums, it does not mean Medicare Part D coverage or its important consumer protections are ending. Understanding the announcement requires looking back at the Inflation Reduction Act, which became law in 2022. The legislation made several significant changes to Medicare Part D and how beneficiaries pay for covered prescription medications.
Beginning in 2025, the former Part D coverage gap—commonly called the “donut hole”—was eliminated under a redesigned benefit structure. The law also established a $2,000 annual limit on beneficiaries’ out-of-pocket costs for covered Part D medications. Because the limit is adjusted annually, it increased to $2,100 for 2026 and will rise to $2,400 in 2027. After beneficiaries reach the annual threshold, they generally pay nothing more for covered Part D medications for the remainder of the calendar year. Monthly premiums and medications not covered by the plan do not count toward that limit. The Inflation Reduction Act also created the Medicare Prescription Payment Plan. This voluntary program allows beneficiaries to spread their out-ofpocket prescription costs across monthly payments instead of paying a substantial amount at the pharmacy at one time. It does not reduce the total cost, but it may make those expenses easier to manage throughout the year. Another important protection limits the cost of each covered insulin product to no more than $35 for a one-month supply. The Part D deductible does not apply to covered insulin. To help stand-alone prescription drug plans adjust to the redesigned benefit, CMS introduced
the voluntary Part D Premium Stabilization Demonstration in 2025. The demonstration initially provided participating plans with a $15 monthly reduction in the amount used to calculate beneficiary premiums. That reduction decreased to $10 in 2026. CMS announced July 28 that plan sponsors now have sufficient experience with the redesigned Part D benefit to support their 2027 bids. Therefore, the demonstration will conclude Dec. 31, 2026, and the program will return to traditional market conditions in 2027. What does this mean for Medicare beneficiaries? Stand-alone Part D prescription drug plans will remain available. Medicare Advantage plans that include prescription drug coverage—commonly called MAPD plans—will also remain available. The Extra Help program will remain in place as well. Also known as the Part D Low-Income Subsidy, Extra Help is a separate federal program that assists qualifying beneficiaries with Part D premiums, deductibles and prescription costs. The conclusion of the temporary demonstration does not eliminate Extra Help. The effect will not be the same for every beneficiary or plan. The end of the demonstration could contribute to changes in premiums or plan availability,
particularly among stand-alone Part D plans. Finalized 2027 premiums, formularies and pharmacy networks must be reviewed before anyone can determine how an individual beneficiary will be affected. The 2027 Part D base beneficiary premium will be $41.33, compared with $38.99 in 2026. This figure is used to calculate plan-specific premiums; it is not necessarily the amount a beneficiary will pay. I remain actively involved in insurance advocacy, meeting with legislators, their staffs, regulators and industry leaders in Sacramento, Washington, D.C., and throughout our region. This involvement helps me remain informed, share the experiences of the people I serve and help our community understand how policy decisions may affect their coverage. Nothing in Medicare is guaranteed to remain unchanged from one year to the next. Do not change your coverage because of a headline. Review your Annual Notice of Change, prescriptions, formulary, pharmacy network and estimated annual costs. Please seek the advice of a licensed insurance professional to understand how any changes or individual circumstances may affect your coverage. About the Author Marc Sigmon, MBA, is the

MSJC Student’s Veterinary Internship in Italy Inspires New Career Path Menifee—What began as a dream to study abroad has become a defining milestone in Mt. San Jacinto College (MSJC) student Harleigh Hinks’ journey toward a career in veterinary medicine. Hinks, a biology major from Nuevo, recently completed a month-long veterinary internship in Italy, where she shadowed veterinarians, observed surgeries, participated in hands-on clinical procedures, and experienced a different approach to animal care. The experience not only strengthened her academic goals but also inspired a new professional direction: becoming an equine veterinarian. “I wanted to study abroad, but I didn’t know where,” Hinks said. “I did my own research, found veterinarians in Italy, applied, interviewed, and was accepted. It was absolutely worth it—100 percent.” Hinks is completing her biology coursework before transferring to Cal Poly Pomona to pursue pre-veterinary studies. Her longterm goal is to earn a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) degree and build a career caring for animals. The internship was offered through the Doctors in Italy Fellowship Program, an international educational initiative that provides aspiring healthcare professionals with opportunities to shadow physicians and veterinarians while gaining cross-cultural experience. Founded in 2018, the program partners with hospitals, veterinary clinics, and animal rescue organizations across Italy to help students develop clinical insight, cultural awareness, and a broader understanding of global healthcare. Although participants train throughout Italy, the program is conducted entirely in English, with translators available when needed, making it accessible to students from around the world. Participants also take part in organized cultural activities that complement their professional experience. The four-week internship took place in Florence and Milan, providing exposure to two distinctly different veterinary environments. During the first two weeks in Florence, Hinks worked with the Italian Horse Protection (IHP), where she gained hands-on experience caring for horses and other large animals. “We learned how to perform ultrasounds on horses, draw blood, and observe the daily treatments the animals received,” Hinks said. “It was very hands-on, and the veterinarians were incredible teachers.” In Milan, the experience shifted to a veterinary hospital specializing in companion animals. There,
she observed surgeries, anesthesia procedures, patient preparation, and the collaborative work of veterinary teams, including surgeons, laboratory technicians, and veterinary support staff. “The experience allowed me to see every role within a veterinary hospital,” Hinks said. “Seeing the different specialties helped me realize that becoming an equine veterinarian is exactly what I want to do.” Already an experienced horse owner, Hinks said the internship confirmed that working with horses is where her passion lies. “I do have horses of my own, so everything just came together,” she said. One feature Hinks especially appreciated was that the entire program was conducted in English, allowing her to fully immerse herself in the clinical experience while living abroad. “Everything was in English,” Hinks said. “If somebody wasn’t very fluent in English, they would have a translator. It was very easy to follow along.” Beyond the clinical experience, the program immersed students in Italian culture through organized excursions and activities. Hinks visited iconic landmarks including the Duomo in Milan, Michelangelo’s David in Florence, and the Leaning Tower of Pisa, while also participating in Italian cooking classes that gave students a deeper appreciation for the country’s culture and traditions. One aspect of the experience that left a lasting impression was the compassion she witnessed among Italian veterinary professionals. “The bedside manners they have there is so different,” Hinks said. “You can tell how much they truly love their animals.” The experience has already begun opening doors back home. Since returning to California, Hinks has applied for several veterinary internships and says local veterinarians have expressed interest in helping her continue building her clinical experience. “After my experience out there, it’s definitely easier to get an internship here,” she said. “I’ve already applied to a few and talked to a couple of veterinarians, and many are interested in having me on board and learning with them.” For Hinks, the experience reinforced the value of stepping outside her comfort zone and pursuing opportunities beyond the classroom. “I highly recommend it,” she said. “The student coordinators were amazing. You’re never alone, you can reach them 24/7 if you need help. It was an unforgettable experience.”

“Spider-Man: Brand New Day” By Bob Garver When we last left Peter Parker aka Spider-Man (Tom Holland), back in 2021, he had to submit to a spell from Doctor Strange that would make the world forget he ever existed. His Aunt May (Marissa Tomei) had died, so he had no family left, but he had to watch his friends Ned (Jacob Batalon) and MJ (Zendaya), go off to college without him, blissfully unaware of what they meant to him. As we rejoin Peter in “Spider-Man: Brand New Day,” he’s mostly turned himself over to superhero work full-time. There are plenty of dangers around New York City, from minor thugs to supervillains like Scorpion (Michael Mando) to people who just need rescuing. Peter is always happy to swing in and save the day as Spider-Man, but the years of anonymity are taking their toll on the human side of him. Peter has some help. He coordinates with Detective Jean DeWolff (Liza Colón-Zayas), as a liaison to the NYPD. A supposedly benevolent organization called Damage Control, led by Bill Metzger (Tramell Tillman) deals in superhero affairs. Fellow vigilante Frank “The Punisher” Castle (Jon Bernthal) keeps an eye on things, though Peter disagrees with his violent tactics. If he gets really desperate, he can call upon Yelena “Black Widow” Belova, the leader of the New Avengers. Even Bruce “The Incredible Hulk” Banner (Mark Ruffalo) is still in play, wearing a device that prevents him from Hulk-ing up, though it can be disabled. But these people are “allies” at best; Peter misses having friends. Eventually a threat presents

itself that stumps Peter, his allies, and even his enemies. Somebody is possessing the bodies of whoever they please – often average citizens, though it can be a familiar face if specific deception is required - and wreaking havoc throughout the city. Their ultimate target seems to be Damage Control, which itself may not be on the up-and-up, as if Spider-Man battling the company’s ninja security team in all the film’s advertising wasn’t enough of a giveaway. The person behind the possessions is a shadowy figure, and it’s little secret that Sadie Sink of “Stranger Things” has been cast in a shadowy role, so the real question is, who is this character beyond someone played by Sadie Sink? Peter tries to keep from becoming possessed himself, but his biology betrays him, and soon the villain learns that he’s still pining after MJ. He tries saving her impersonally as Spider-Man, but it soon becomes apparent that Peter Parker can’t stay out of her life forever. And this leads to some good conversations about what these characters are, what they’ve been, and what they can and can’t be going forward. It’s some of the best acting I’ve seen from the MCU in a long time. Also, Bernthal with his jaded attitude is everything you could want in a perfectly-cast Punisher. And yet, I’m not recommending “Spider-Man: Brand New Day.” It’s an apologetic sort of non-recommendation, as the movie does a lot right, especially with its three(!) carryovers from “The Odyssey.” But for every scene where the movie admirably lets the actors and dialogue breathe, there are too many more that are just dull MCU retreads. Like how Damage Control is just the latest corrupt human organization to think that they can get away with crimes against superpowered individuals. Or how the villain is temporarily stopped the way most MCU villains are stopped in this era. Or how characters like (the new) Black Widow and The Hulk are wedged into the film to remind fans that they’re still a part of this franchise despite the story not needing them. Or, perhaps worst of all, how the film seems preoccupied with setting up more MCU installments down the road than making this installment particularly memorable. Compared to the satisfaction I got from 2021’s “Spider-Man: No Way Home,” this movie… I won’t say “doesn’t have legs,” but is maybe a few legs short of an arachnid. Grade: C “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” is rated PG-13 for sequences of action/violence and some language. Its running time is 145 minutes. Contact Bob Garver at rrg251@nyu.edu.

Believe Me... You’ll Never Be Able to Fuhgeddaboudit By Tony Reverditto Some restaurants impress you with exceptional food. Others captivate you with remarkable hospitality. Then there are those rare places where every detail— from the atmosphere and cuisine to the people behind it—comes together to create an experience that lingers long after the evening has ended. Fuhgeddaboudit Restaurant & Bar in Wildomar is one of those places. Located near Angelo’s Brick Oven Pizzeria in the Hidden Springs shopping center, Fuhgeddaboudit is the realization of owner Faith Catalano’s vision to create a sophisticated neighborhood restaurant and wine lounge where outstanding cuisine, thoughtfully selected wines, handcrafted cocktails, live entertainment and genuine hospitality come together beneath one roof. While her husband Angelo had already built a loyal following next door with his celebrated pizzeria, Faith envisioned something entirely different—a chic retreat where guests could unwind, discover remarkable wines, linger over superbly prepared cuisine and enjoy an atmosphere that feels both mysterious and comfortably welcoming. The story behind the restaurant’s name is every bit as memorable as the name itself. Faith explained that after countless brainstorming sessions, she and Angelo simply couldn’t agree on what to call the restaurant. Frustrated, she finally thought to herself, “Forget it.” Then inspiration struck. She realized that after a long day, that’s exactly what people want—to forget about work, relax, enjoy great food and spend time with family and friends. The phrase immediately resonated. Faith created the logo, inspired by the expressive hand gestures she and Angelo naturally use in conversation, while Angelo added the finishing touch by choosing the playful New York-inspired spelling: Fuhgeddaboudit. The result is a name that perfectly captures the restaurant’s personality while remaining impossible to forget. Faith and Angelo’s own story is equally inspiring. The couple married on April 10, 2024, then opened Fuhgeddaboudit just four days later on April 14, beginning both a marriage and a new business venture in the same remarkable week. Today, their shared passion is reflected throughout the restaurant and in the genuine warmth that greets every guest who walks through the front door. Faith’s years of experience in the hospitality industry are evident in every aspect of the dining experience. She personally curated the menu, drawing from years of industry knowledge to create a collection of dishes that balances familiar comfort with elevated presentation. It is immediately apparent that she understands not only exceptional food, but also what keeps guests returning. That philosophy extends well beyond the menu. Together, Faith and Angelo have maximized every square foot of the restaurant, creating an intimate setting that feels both spacious and inviting. Rich black walls provide a cozy, cave-like ambiance while elegant lighting, contemporary finishes and comfortable seating encourage guests to settle in and enjoy the evening. The playful Fuhgeddaboudit theme appears throughout the restaurant—from the décor and television programming to a humorous surprise tucked away in the restroom that leaves first-time visitors smiling. The spacious bar anchors the dining room beautifully, and Faith shared that the restaurant will soon expand its already impressive wine and beer offerings by introducing a full-service bar. Wine remains at the heart of the Fuhgeddaboudit experience, with a substantial collection
complemented by tasting events, live music and thoughtfully curated wine dinners that have transformed the restaurant into one of Wildomar’s favorite social destinations. Back in May 2026, that journey took an unexpected turn when a Range Rover accidentally crashed through the front of the restaurant. For many independent businesses, such an event could have been devastating. Fortunately, no one was hurt. Faith, Angelo and their dedicated team embraced the challenge, restored the restaurant and welcomed guests back with the same warmth and enthusiasm that had earned the
community’s loyalty from the very beginning. Their resilience has become another chapter in a story already defined by perseverance, passion and heartfelt hospitality. Our evening reflected everything Faith envisioned. Service was warm, attentive and refreshingly personal. Faith checked on guests throughout the evening while Megan seamlessly balanced tending bar and providing outstanding table service, creating the kind of welcoming atmosphere that makes diners feel less like customers and more like friends gathering for an unforgettable meal. The upcoming addition of a full-service bar in August promises to make the experience even more inviting. To kick off the evening, John selected a crisp Rombauer Sauvignon Blanc, whose bright citrus notes paired beautifully with our opening courses. I began with a dry, fruit-forward Miro Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon, later transitioning to a velvety Zenato Ripassa Valpolicella Superiore just before my Filet Mignon arrived. It proved to be the perfect companion for the rich flavors that were about to follow. Our culinary adventure began with my favorite dish of the evening, the spectacularly presented Salmon Stack, where tender baked salmon rested atop sliced avocado and fragrant jasmine rice, finished with a delicate teriyaki glaze and a squeeze of fresh lime that brightened every bite. Equally impressive was the Roasted Cauliflower, served bubbling in a skillet beneath a rich mushroom and Gruyère sauce that transformed this humble vegetable into an elegant and deeply satisfying appetizer. The momentum continued with the Filet Mignon Skillet, featuring tender bites of perfectly prepared filet crowned with buttery Gorgonzola and accompanied by house-made crostini that provided the ideal contrast of texture. Rich without being heavy, every bite demonstrated the careful balance of flavors that has become a hallmark of Faith’s curated menu. Equally memorable was the Tuscan Shrimp Skillet, showcasing succulent shrimp nestled in a luxurious sun-dried tomato cream sauce with fresh spinach. Served bubbling hot alongside warm house-made bread, the velvety sauce was simply too good to leave behind, making each slice an irresistible invitation for one more dip. Before he left for the evening, Angelo insisted we try the night’s special—Filet Mignon accompanied by the restaurant’s indulgent Truffle Mac & Cheese, where house-made pasta was enveloped
in a silky four-cheese sauce, finished with toasted brioche breadcrumbs and a fragrant drizzle of truffle oil. It elevated a familiar comfort food into a sophisticated side worthy of the spotlight. The beautifully prepared steak, topped with microgreens, paired perfectly with the rich mac and cheese. Just when we thought the evening had reached its perfect conclusion, Faith surprised us. Although we had ordered only the Chocolate Molten Lava Cake, she wanted us to experience the full breadth of the dessert program and graciously presented three of the restaurant’s signature desserts. The Bread Pudding, served warm with creamy vanilla gelato and fresh berries, delivered comforting flavors with an elevated presentation. The Lemon and Vanilla Crème Brûlée featured a delicate caramelized sugar crust that gave way to a silky, citrus-kissed custard, while the Chocolate Molten Lava Cake, also accompanied by vanilla gelato and fresh berries, provided the rich, decadent finale every chocolate lover hopes for. Exquisitely plated, the desserts demonstrated that the same attention to detail extends from the first course to the last. As we admired the impressive trio, Faith smiled and mentioned there are four additional desserts waiting to be discovered. After experiencing these three, another visit is already on our calendar. Throughout the evening, what impressed me most wasn’t simply the quality of the food, but the genuine pride that Faith and Angelo have poured into every aspect of the restaurant. Their commitment is reflected in the curated menu, attentive service, welcoming atmosphere and sincere desire to ensure every guest leaves with a memorable experience. It’s a philosophy that cannot be manufactured—it comes from owners who genuinely love what they do. Continuing that tradition, Fuhgeddaboudit will host its next Rails & Reserves Wine Dinner on Sunday, August 23, with seatings at 1:00 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. The event is part of a six-month rail-themed culinary journey that begins each June with destinations outside the United States before making its way home for a November Friendsgiving finale inspired by the places and flavors discovered along the route. August’s stop features a thoughtfully prepared five-course menu paired with exceptional Chilean wines. Reservations are required, seating is limited, and may be made by calling (951) 457-0827 after 4:00 p.m. At $75 per person, it promises to be another memorable stop aboard this unique culinary adventure. Sometimes the most memorable dining destinations are built on far more than an outstanding menu. They are shaped by vision, strengthened by adversity and sustained by genuine hospitality. Fuhgeddaboudit Restaurant & Bar truly embodies all three, making it one of Southwest Riverside County’s most compelling culinary destinations. And perhaps that’s the greatest compliment I can give. A restaurant whose name playfully suggests you should “forget about it” is, ironically, one that you’ll remember long after the last bite.

HOME & GARDEN
Start your own pumpkin patch before autumn arrives By Tallulah Laurenson Valley News Intern
Every year, thousands of people search through pumpkin patches and grocery store bins to find the perfect pumpkin to carve, decorate, or bake. But this year, instead of purchasing a pumpkin from local supermarkets, try putting some gardening skills to use. Even though autumn is still a month or two away, now is the time to prepare for that spooky and gratitude-filled season. Why plant now? Halloween and Thanksgiving are only a few months away, giving ample time to begin growing pumpkins in your backyard. Pumpkins take 85120 days to mature, depending on the variety. The average time, though, is 90-100 days – just in time for Thanksgiving if you begin planting now! For most large carving pumpkins, planting in late summer is too late for a fully mature Halloween pumpkin, although smaller varieties may still have time to develop. Additionally, if you plant at the right time, your pumpkins may be in a beautiful stage of growth, with crawling vines and tiny pumpkins just beginning to appear—creating a festive autumn display before harvest even begins. Growing pumpkins The first step to growing pumpkins is finding enough space in your garden. Pumpkin vines grow aggressively and can require 15 to 100 square feet of growing space per plant, largely depending on the size of the pumpkins at maturity. Therefore, you should space pumpkins away from other plants to keep your garden organized. Begin planting a few seeds every 2-5 feet. The seeds should be an inch deep, planted in warm, fertile soil. Pumpkins tolerate hot weather, but they grow best with consistent, deep watering, especially during flowering and fruit development. Gardeners should also remove weeds regularly to keep plants from battling for nutrients.
Varieties of pumpkins
As mentioned earlier, there are many varieties of pumpkins, and depending on the kind you are growing, this can directly affect how long it takes for them to mature. The process of pumpkin growth begins with planting and nurturing the seeds; then the vines will begin to spread and small flowers to appear; then the process of pumpkins growing larger and larger and changing in color will begin; and when the color is bright and the rind is solid, gardeners will harvest their home-grown pumpkins! According to the University of Illinois Extension, Autumn Gold is a popular pumpkin variety that matures at about 90 days and typically weighs between 7 and 10 pounds. The Autumn Gold variety tends to be the typical, idyllic pumpkin. Mississippi State University provides examples and descriptions of other pumpkin types that differ in weight and growth time. For example, another well-known variety is the Jack-O-Lantern pumpkin, averaging 100 days to mature and 7 to 10 pounds—similar to the Autumn Gold. While these varieties are a typical weight and growth time, other varieties can be much smaller, also decreasing the time it takes for them to reach maturity. Miniature versions such as JackBe-Little, Munchkin, and Sweetie Pie pumpkins can mature in 75–95 days and typically weigh less than 1 pound, according to information from Mississippi State University Extension. Larger than miniatures, but smaller than Autumn Golds or Jack-O-Lanterns, are the Spookie, Triple Treat, Darling, Early Abundance, and Small Sugar pumpkin varieties. Their weight range is 5 to 8 pounds, taking 85 to 100 days for growth until harvest time. Lastly, are the larger pumpkin varieties. These pumpkins weigh in at around 10 to 25 pounds and average 100 days to grow. This category of pumpkin includes Casper, Cushaw, Early Giant, Mustang, Jumpin Jack, and Connecticut Field, as stated by Mississippi State University Extension.
Caring for your pumpkins Pumpkins are monoecious, meaning they produce male and female flowers separately, but on the same plant. The first few flowers will die off quickly; these are the male flowers. The female flowers will continue developing and begin growing pumpkins as long as they are receiving pollen from the male flowers. This will depend on the number of pollinators in your backyard. Also, be sure to watch out for powdery mildew and infestations of beetles and squash bugs. These are the most common issues when growing pumpkins.
Ready for a homegrown fall When growing pumpkins, learn a little about the variety of pumpkin that you are growing. Understanding its growth habits, maturity timeline, and care requirements can help gardeners produce healthy, high-quality pumpkins. If time is limited, the smaller varieties can be a great help because of their quicker harvest time. Expect to see sprouting pumpkins and extra seasonal charm this fall when you drive through your own town!

Bright orange trailer stolen in Anza recovered with contents intact
Diane Sieker Staf f Writer
A trailer reported stolen from an Anza property has been recovered, and its owner says everything inside was returned untouched. The Riverside County Sheriff’s Dispatch was contacted Saturday, July 25, after Fidel Lucero reported that his bright orange box trailer had been stolen the previous day from his property in Anza. Photos of the distinctive trailer quickly circulated on social media, drawing the attention of community members while Riverside County sheriff’s deputies investigated the theft. At 9:22 a.m. Sunday, July 26, deputies were dispatched to the area of Charlie Ann Lane and De Silva Road in Anza where the stolen trailer was located. Two people at the location were detained while deputies investigated, but authorities later determined they were not involved in the theft. According to the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department, no arrests have been made and the investigation remains ongoing. The trailer was returned to Lucero, and no additional details about the theft have been released. Lucero said the trailer’s bright orange color likely helped lead to its recovery. “I was thinking of wrapping it in a different color, but I changed my mind,” he said. He also said all of the trailer’s contents were recovered intact. He and his family expressed their appreciation for the prompt response and efforts of the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department in recovering his stolen property. Diane Sieker can be reached by email at dsieker@reedermedia.com.

Fourth Annual Goldie Fest announced for August 13 Diane Sieker Staf f Writer
Keep Anza Weird will host the fourth annual Goldie Fest under the new moon Thursday, August 13, at the Anza Farmers Market. “We’ll celebrate all the strange, spooky and downright entertaining things that make life in the hills of Anza so memorable–including a few neighbors who are, let’s say, a little unique,” said event organizer Annika Knöppel. Since even before the 1980’s Anza has been known to be a UFO hotspot and gained notoriety worldwide, according to Knöppel. “Goldie is Anza’s resident UFO golden orb that has been seen entering, exiting and circling the Cahuilla Mountain area.” The event will be held at the Anza Farmers’ Market under the red and white tent, celebrating Goldie, paranormal happenings, ghosts and other weird and wonderful things. “Come mingle and shop with our regular Anza Farmers Market craft and food vendors,” Knöppel said. “Then share your unusual experiences under the tent–swap spooky tales and enjoy telescope viewing, courtesy of the Temecula Valley Astronomers after dark.” Goldie Fest starts at 4 p.m and goes until darkness sets in–because in Anza, the weird really starts shining after sunset. The Anza Farmer’s Market is located in the field next to Overland Realty at 56333 St. Hwy. 371 in downtown Anza. Ample parking is available. To be a vendor, please email anzafarmersmarket@gmail.com for a vendor application. Contact Annika Knöppel for more information at (951)234-1314, text preferred.
