La Jolla Parks and Beaches discuss beach fi res around Marine Street

By DAVE SCHWAB

In September La Jolla Parks and Beaches, Inc. vetted an idea from two board members for getting a better

handle on controlling beach fires at Marine Street and elsewhere in La Jolla.

LJPB board members Ken Hunrichs and Melinda Merryweather have collaborated on one possible educational solution to problematic beach fires: posted stickers on beach entrance signs.

Reporting on a working group recently established to combat nettlesome beach fires causing burns and air pollution, Janet Stratford Collins said: “We’ve received over 200 emails. They fall into three categories, those who want beach fires to stay with no new regulations, those wanting to make beach fires safer, and those who want to ban them.”

Added Stratford Collins: “A lot of our signs posted at beach entrances are nega-tive – no glass, no beach fires, no alcohol, etc. We’ve got a proposal for a prototype sticker, now being worked on with Dan Daneri of City Parks, that’s positive. It says, ‘Beach fires allowed 5 a.m. to midnight.’ It goes through what is the proper way to do a beach fire, in rings or with personal bar-becues, stating current beach regulations requiring the use of charcoal, clean wood or paper products, and no trash.”

Stratford Collins noted the working group is suggesting the prototype stickers could be used to amend beach entrance sig-nage making them more easily and clearly

understandable by beach patrons.“There’s been a lot of back-and-forth on

beach signs,” concurred LJPB president Ann Dynes.

LJPB board member John Shannon point-ed out a possible deficiency with proposed stickers.

“People don’t read signs the way they used to,” he said. “Maybe there should be something more like a map that shows what’s allowed, and what’s prohibited. There’s a lot of value there.”

Added Shannon: “Whenever we do these draconian things telling people what they can’t do; they will just do whatever they want anyway. If we tell people, ‘This is what we allow,’ then they’re encouraged (to comply).”

Board member John Leek noted: “City Parks with their rangers is the first respond-er for anything on the beach. However, they don’t have the budget to have rangers parked on every beach or any beach. The only reason police go onto the beach is be-cause of an emergency, and there were no rangers available to take care of the situa-tion because of budget problems.”

Resident Dorie DeFranco said: “All parts of the City are working under the same mu-nicipal code. If you change conditions on one beach, it changes for all the City beach-es. And if you do call the non-emergency number and report an illegal beach fire, it gets routed through police dispatch and goes to the fire department. Police do not ever come.”

PB Community Collaborators give updates on organizations’ projectsBy DAVE SCHWAB

In October, PB Community Collaborators – a loose-knit group of civic organizations

representing local schools, the li-brary, Discover PB, and the town council – met via Zoom to dis-cuss current events in the midst of COVID.

Mary Lou Benzel, president of PB Woman’s Club, talked about the club’s ongoing charity work while dispelling rumors that their clubhouse was being turned into a homeless shelter.

“We’ve been working with our favorite charity, Stand Up

For Kids, that supports homeless teens,” Benzel said. “We’ve been supporting them for close to 13 years to give them things like food and clothing and baskets of good-ies at holiday time.”

Regarding homeless services, Benzel said, “Quite a stir was created on Next Door when we brought in a (temporary) trailer to allow the unhoused to take showers, and it was immediate-ly assumed that we were turn-ing the PB Woman’s Club into a homeless shelter, which we are not.”

Added Benzel: “The PB

Woman’s Club has also become too expensive for us to maintain, so we put it up for sale thinking that was the best thing we could do to still serve the community. We don’t need a physical place to do it. We’ll still be around, prob-ably bigger and better than ever, without the burden of a 100-plus-year-old house to maintain.”

Ron Walker of Pacific Beach Town Council noted that the council was not been able to do Concerts on the Green and graffiti cleanup this year due to COVID.

“That has really been unfortu-nate, but we’ve been doing some other community improvement projects like power washing side-walks on Garnet, and weed abate-ment on Mission Bay Drive and Soledad Mountain Road,” Walker said. “We’ve also been advocat-ing for park curfew hours, and pressuring the City on (creating) a sidewalk vending ordinance. We’ve also collaborated with the PB Planning Group and Discover PB on starting a Garnet block captain program.”

Christine Wainwright of PB Library gave an update on the status quo of libraries citywide.

“We’ve expanded service at all 36 branches to Monday through Saturday, 9:30 a.m. to 1 p.m., and 2 to 5:30 p.m. with an hour off for lunch from 1 to 2 p.m.,” Wainwright said. “Our book drops are all now open 24 hours.”

The librarian added that the PB Taylor Branch is not yet open for limited indoor patron usage, pointing out that La Jolla and Point Loma branches are, though with notable changes.

“You’re not allowed to handle books on shelves,” Wainwright said. “Staff goes in and pulls books for patrons now like our contactless pick-up service.”

Wainwright added mail ballot drop-off service staffed by County Registrar staffers is being con-ducted now throughout the Nov. 3 election at all 36 City library locations from 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Saturday. “Mail ballots will be driven over to the Registrar, you don’t need to worry about them getting lost,” she said.

Sara Berns, executive director of Discover PB, said the business improvement district has had to reformat its fall Beachfest,

turning it into a Best of the Beach Fish Taco Contest with tickets on sale now at pacificbeach.org.

“You can visit six participat-ing restaurants over the next six weeks and submit your (best of) vote online,” Berns said. “Also at our farmers market on Tuesdays, we’ll have arts and crafts vendors usually at Beachfest featured ev-ery week during October. We’ll al-so be doing the same thing with local PB merchants and vendors in November, encouraging people to shop small and local before the holidays.”

Speaking for Friends of Pacific Beach Secondary Schools, Love Zubiller said: “Our hands are tied with fundraising as well because our kids aren’t back on cam-pus yet. But a Mission Bay High School student has designed a PB T-shirt and 20% of sales are going to FOPBSS,” she said. “MBHS al-so is selling masks that are black with a little pirate on them. And if you know students who need breakfast and lunch, they’re be-ing offered at MBHS.”

CITY’S FULL PARKING ENFORCEMENT RESTARTS

The City of San Diego wants to make sure residents and visitors are aware that all parking regula-tions will again be enforced across the city started on Thursday, Oct. 15. Restarting parking enforce-ment will allow for increased turnover at parking meters and businesses, ensuring accessibili-ty for patrons visiting local stores and restaurants. Although street sweeping has continued during the public health emergency, the resumption of enforcement will allow City sweepers to once again sweep debris and dust pollution along the curb line to maintain improved water quality and great-ly reduce the potential for flooding as the rainy season approaches. View an interactive map and street sweeping schedules by vis-iting tinyurl.com/ycwn5cjp.

FREE FLU SHOTS AVAILABLE AT COUNTY CLINICS

The County of San Diego is ramping up its flu vaccination efforts to lower the risk of San Diegans getting influenza and the novel coronavirus at the same time and prevent the local healthcare system from being overwhelmed. Every year, the County sponsors free vaccina-tion clinics throughout the region where you can get a flu shot. Six clinics will take place in October and early November with vaccine available for adults and children ages six months and up.

“The clinics are free and pri-marily for people with no medical insurance,” said Wilma Wooten, M.D., M.P.H., County public health officer. “We want everyone to be protected against the flu and its possible complications.”

The upcoming clinics will be open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at: Oct. 22, North Central Public Health Center – 5055 Ruffin Road; Oct 24, South Public Health Center – 690 Oxford St., Chula Vista; Oct. 28, Central Public Health Center VIP Trailer – 3177A Oceanview Blvd.; Oct. 29, East Public Health Center – 367 N. Magnolia Ave., El Cajon.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends that everyone six months of age and older get flu shot every year. The flu vaccine is safe and effective. People with no healthcare coverage can get vaccinated at a Community Health Center or County public health center throughout the flu season. For a list of locations, visit sdiz.org or call 2-1-1.

DON’T WAIT UNTIL ELECTION DAY – VOTE EARLY

The Registrar’s office reminds you that you can make voting decisions and complete your mail ballot in the comfort and safety of your home. Remember to sign and date your envelope, seal your completed ballot inside and return it to a trusted source. You can re-turn it by mail, no postage needed, or at one of 126 mail ballot drop-off locations around the county.

Pacifi c Beach Woman’s Club’s historic building for saleBy DAVE SCHWAB

Pacific Beach Woman’s Club observed two ma-jor milestones this year:

The club celebrated its 125th an-niversary, along with putting its 109-year-old historic clubhouse up for sale for the first time en-tertaining offers starting at $1.5 million.

“COVID didn’t help, but the building was getting to be so old, and we’ve fixed all the small stuff, but we can’t save enough money to fix any of the big stuff,” said PBWC president Mary Lou Benzel. “There are property taxes and utilities and general maintenance fees to be paid. And we can’t have the three fundraisers we have every year, so we don’t have any way to raise that money.”

Added Benzel: “It just became evident that with COVID we weren’t going to be able to han-dle it (overhead). It wasn’t an easy decision. And there are still a few members who are upset. The new board took over in June, and it was shortly after that we start-ed talking about it and we said, ‘Let’s just put it up (for sale) and see how much we can get for it.’”

Built in 1911, the 3,528-square-foot property at 1721 Hornblend St. is on 0.22 acres. It is a non-tra-ditional dwelling.

Pointing out the clubhouse property was originally a lemon grove and was zoned agricultur-al, Benzel added: “It’s never been a residence. It was built as a meeting place and it has no bedrooms. It’s a huge meeting hall with a foyer and an office and stage at the back end of it. And, because it’s a historical building, whoever buys it can’t change the outside of it.”

The PB Woman’s Club was es-tablished in 1895 to enrich the lives of the women living in the area. Several women met at the home of Mrs. Rose Hartwick to establish the club rules and reg-ulations. The clubhouse was built on land donated by several mem-bers and has served as a gather-ing place ever since.

During the early years, the club participated in many phil-anthropic causes, including roll-ing bandages during World Wars

I and II, entertaining the troops, and establishing the first public library in Pacific Beach.

Today, Woman’s Club members support various causes and are active in many civic and com-munity events and activities, in-cluding hosting musical perfor-mances. In 2019, beneficiaries of PBWC’s generosity included the Polinsky Children’s Center, Toys For Tots, Concerts on the Green in PB, the Surfrider Foundation, scholarships at Mission Bay High School, an annual fishing derby on Crystal Pier, and Veterans Standdown.

PBWC also wants to squelch rumors that the clubhouse could become a homeless shelter.

“The club is not going to be turned into a homeless shelter no matter who purchases it, that is not the plan for it,” said PBWC board member Ellen Citrano. “The building is on the historic register, so the city has a lot to say on what the outside of the building looks like, and the City Planning Department would have to approve any permitting for oth-er issues.”

Benzel feels giving up the club-house won’t be a hindrance to PBWC.

“I don’t think it will affect us at all,” she said. “Though the down-side is we will not have a perma-nent place, so we’ll have to meet at the library or the YMCA when it’s finished, or even Rose Creek Cottage. We’ll still be able to ful-fill the club’s mission of providing service to the community. Giving up the clubhouse won’t stop us

from what we’re doing. It will just give us more funds to make significant contributions to the charities we sponsor.”

And there’s a possibility, how-ever remote, that the clubhouse could be moved to another suit-able site if one could be found.

“We’re exploring the possibili-ty of moving the structure some-where else,” noted Benzel.

Concluded Citrano: “We are going to stick around in Pacific Beach for another 125-plus year and be a great community partner as we always have been. We may just not have brick and mortar to surround us, but we’ve got love and caring to go all around.”

County Registrar discusses

election process during pandemicBy DAVE SCHWAB

On election Tuesday in November, the County Registrar becomes the

single largest employer in San Diego County for that day. That and a myriad of other election insights were offered by County Registrar Michael Vu at a recent Zoom meeting sponsored by the San Diego Taxpayers Association and moderated by SDTA presi-dent/CEO Haney Hong.

With the Nov. 3 General Election less than a month out, Vu present-ed on this one-of-a-kind election, before answering questions about election-process fundamentals. He said there will be numerous changes this year due to COVID.

“The pandemic has shifted the entire model for us at the Registrar of Voters,” said Vu. “We are send-ing a mail ballot to every single one of the approximately 1.9 mil-lion registered voters, and nearly 2 million sample ballots, which is a significant milestone. This is a really important election. We an-ticipate we’ll need 4,500 seasonal staff members including 1,200 seasonal poll workers to assist our 65 permanent employees.”

The election process has already begun.

“We actually have already start-ed getting ballots back from people

in the military and overseas,” Vu said adding, “Now is the time to get prepared and make sure all our ducks are in a row in terms of updating residents correct mailing addresses.”

Organizing and running a pres-idential election process is stagger-ingly complex.

“We have about 196 election contests and 37 local measures on the County ballot with lots of ju-risdictions overlapping including City Council, Congressional, State Assembly and Senate, community college, high school, and health-care districts,” noted Vu. “We have 842 ballot types with 4,210 variations on the ballot that have to go out in five federally covered languages.”

Turnout for presidential elec-tions every four years is typically high.

“A presidential election is the largest in the four-year cycle,” said Vu. “The highest percentage turnout was in 2008 with 84%. In the 2016 election, we had 81.5%. We have been preparing for this for years. And then the pandemic happened.”

New health protocols including required social distancing have significantly altered the in-person voting equation, noted Vu.

“In the past, we’ve had 1,549 voting precincts and 69% of those were reporting to private facili-ties: garages, pet grooming stores, pizza parlors, funeral homes,” he said. Vu added his office wanted to avoid a “level of uncertainty” this time around in terms of the poten-tial for a private entity denying ac-cess at the last minute to a polling station due to the pandemic.

“We had to really think, ‘How are we going to be able to facilitate this election?” asked Vu. “And we couldn’t use a lot of the smaller spaces, like a person’s garage, be-cause it’s just too small to facili-tate any level of social distancing when you know there’s going to be a surge of voters.”

New leadership to re-focus beautifulPB’s vision for communityBy DAVE SCHWAB

An all-volunteer, pub-lic nonprofit charity, beautifulPB, has a new

board and a refined vision but the same mission: to create a sustain-ably beautiful Pacific Beach that other communities can emulate and replicate.

“We’re not working on a com-plete revamping of the organi-zation but are trying to refocus our efforts to build some new mo-mentum,” said new group presi-dent Katie Matchett, noting she’d like to tie in accomplishments from other civic groups in town “who’ve done a lot of great work.”

Pointed out Matchett: “We’re a little unique in that we have this focus on sustainability. Now we need to take that unique focus and figure out ways we can use that to benefit PB, and be a really efficient organization and achieve those goals.”

The new beautifulPB board al-so includes Joe Bettles, vice presi-dent; Matt Winter, past president; and board members Chris Olson, Paul Viani, Rick Menolez, Paula Gandolfo, and RJ Kunyz.

BeautifulPB recently com-pleted two community projects: The sixth annual PB Counts of the community’s traffic mix in August, and a bike registration/community bike ride held earlier this month promoting public art

murals and other PB highlights.“Registering bikes is a way

to prevent bike theft. It was a multi-purpose event in the com-munity to get people out riding bikes and experiencing the com-munity that way,” said Matchett. “We held our sixth annual PB Counts in August, where we do traffic counts with volunteers standing at locations in west PB near the beach along Cass and Garnet and into some residential neighborhoods.

“They report all the bikes, scooters, skaters – anything pass-ing by to give us a sense of how people are moving around in PB. It gives us a snapshot of a typi-cal summer weekend afternoon. And after six years, we can start to see what (traffic) patterns are developing.”

Matchett said beautifulPB is keenly aware of remaining true to its core mission.

“We do really want to continue to focus on sustainability and to

have mobility and active trans-portation fit under that umbrel-la, getting people to get around by biking and walking rather than driving,” she said. “But we also want to incorporate a prom-inent and new focus on (achiev-ing) equity. We want to take the lead and look for ways to pro-mote equity in our community.”

Matchett noted the recent drive to rename a PB park for William Payne, the community’s first Black teacher, is a step in the

direction beautifulPB wants to pursue. “We’re looking for other ways we can bring equity into the work we’re doing and pro-mote equity in our community,” she said.

An effort has been underway for several years by beautifulPB to turn the beach community into a full-f ledged EcoDistrict. An EcoDistrict is an urban plan-ning term denoting the objec-tive of attaining “sustainable development” while reducing the ecological footprint and impact of community proj-ects. Since 2016, beautifulPB has been exploring pursuing EcoDistrict certification, a new process-based urban develop-ment standard for neighbor-hood-scale projects promoting both environmental sustain-ability and climate protection.

“The EcoDistrict, similar to LEED certification (for buildings), is one of the things we’re trying to sort out,” said Matchett. “There are a number of criteria that need to be met before you can become certified. We may continue to work through that process.”

BeautifulPB has another ulti-mate objective.

“We’re really working for ways to bring some value to our com-munity,” concluded Matchett. “And we’re also working to find the time, money, and people to complete our projects.”

Planning Commission sends short-term rental proposal back to committee By DAVE SCHWAB

Following lengthy testi-mony, the City Planning Commission Oct. 8 voted

4-3 to send a short-term rental compromise proposal by District 2 Councilmember Jennifer Campbell back for further review.

In carrying the matter over, the seven-member commission presented a long list of questions to be answered. Those included a request for more details of the council member’s plan including information on fees and a lot-tery to include short-term rental

operators under a proposed unit cap, as well as specifics on how a new ordinance would be enforced.

If successful in passing mus-ter with both the Planning Commission and the City Council, Campbell’s proposal would take ef-fect Jan. 1, 2022.

Campbell’s plan has stirred strong emotions on both sides since it was first proposed three months ago. As outlined in a memorandum of understanding, her proposal claims to reduce the volume of whole-home short-term rentals, while creating legal

inventory for short-term rentals platforms and local operators that comply with the new rules.

After two hours of back-and-forth public debate, during which proponents argued Campbell’s proposal was reasonable and preferable to the non-sustainable status quo, while opponents insist-ed STRs don’t belong in residential neighborhoods, planning com-missioner Matthew Boomhower moved for a continuance.

“We absolutely need to regulate

CAMPBELL’S PROPOSAL District 2 Councilmember Dr. Jennifer Campbell’s compromise short-term rentals memorandum would:

• Establish four tiers of STRs in the City of San Diego, ranging from home-sharing to whole-home rentals.

• Cap whole-home STRs at 0.7 percent of the City’s housing stock (based on SANDAG’s annual Demographic and Socioeconomic Housing estimates), which would equate to 3,750 permits today – reducing whole-home STRs by 70 percent or more based on the City Auditor’s esti-mation that 16,000 STRs exist today.

• Establish two-night minimum stays for most whole-home rentals.

• Allow residents a maximum of one per-mit, per person.

• Adopt the Mission Beach Town Council’s recommendation to permit up to 30% of the housing units in the community to be used as whole-home STRs (1,086), which will be in addition to the city-wide cap.

• Allow all residents to home-share.

• Allow part-time STR operators to obtain a permit at lower annual fees to ac-commodate high visitor events such as Comic-Con, Pride or December Nights.

• Create a detailed Good Neighbor Policy with strict enforcement guidelines, a fine structure for violations, and a per-mit revocation standard for repeated violations.

short-term vacation rentals,” said Boomhower. “I don’t believe there should be a complete ban. But I al-so don’t believe that the current wild west free-for-all is sustain-able. I absolutely know that there are bad actors out there. But I al-so know that there are short-term hosts who follow the rules and need additional income.”

Added Boomhower, “I also think Councilwoman Campbell and her staff should be complimented for trying to solve this issue. Not ma-ny politicians would have had the guts to actually try and take this one on. But I’m not sure how we

can be expected to vote on this in its current form.”

“It’s important that we have something on the books, some-thing that actually creates some kind of structure and frame-work,” replied Campbell’s chief of staff Venus Molina.“We’ve gone through a lot of scenarios to ac-tually get to where we are right now. We do feel strongly that a lot of the tools, the small details, will be fleshed out and bring about some processes over the next year to make this work.”

Commissioner Vicki Granowitz, who seconded Boomhower’s continuation motion said, “Residential zoning is residential zoning. Whole-house rentals are

an inconsistent land use in a res-idential zone. And we’re trying to make those work. I am willing to try and find a compromise.”

“This isn’t the first time we’ve looked at this,” said planning commission vice-chair James Whalen. “There is nothing in commissioner Boomhower’s comments opposed to having rules to pull together to address the problems – and benefits – of short-term rentals.”

Several beach residents testified on Campbell’s proposal.

“Our own council voted very strongly in favor of our own pro-posal, which Jen Campbell took key components from and includ-ed in her proposal,” said Mission

Beach Town Council president Matt Gardner. “Our proposal included fines and revocation of permits for bad actors.”

“We urge you to reject this ill-advised ordinance,” said Brian White, Pacific Beach Town Council president. “Our council was not consulted at all on the STR issue, and the same goes for many other community groups. We remain opposed to this ap-proach, taken before an uncertain mayoral election, by legalizing ho-tel operations in our residential zoned communities. The residents have had no input, no seat at the table.”

“This ordinance does not have strict requirements, there is

absolutely no maximum occupan-cy,” said Greg Knight of Mission Beach. “There is no way to com-ply with illegal dwellings. And we need enforcement.”

“We cringe at housing that’s converted to short-term rent-als,” said La Jollan and District 1 Council candidate Joe LaCava. “We are horrified that apart-ments are being replaced with mini-hotels. San Diego should follow other coastal cities treating STRs as commercial operations: They are.”

Planning commissioners sub-sequently set Dec. 3 as the date for the council office and City staff to return with a more developed STR compromise plan.

PACIFIC BEACH SURF CLUB DONATIONUnion Bank Pacific Beach

branch manager Catherine Principato recently presented a check to Ron Greene, Pacific Beach Surf Club president, for the philanthropy work the PB Surf Club has provided to the Pacific Beach community, such as StayHomeSD, Pacific Beach Middle School Surf Team, Mission Bay High School Surf Team, and the Pacific Beach Middle School Orchestra Music Program.

MISSION BAY PARK ON-LEASH DOG HOURS

“Our all-volunteer PB Town Council is seeking increased hours for on-leash dogs in Mission Bay Park,” said PBTC president Brian White. “We believe the cur-rent hours are too restrictive, so we're proposing that the City of San Diego to loosen up the hours a bit to give dog owners a little more time in the mornings and evenings to enjoy the bay with their pups. Changing the hours to 10 a.m.-4 p.m. year-round (for "Dogs Not Allowed") would pro-vide more consistency as well.”

Mission Bay Park Committee on Oct. 6 endorsed, in principle, extending on-leash dog hours and that meeting can be viewed on YouTube.

New Compass Real Estate offi ce opens on Cass StreetBy DAVE SCHWAB

Pacific Beach agents Scott Booth, Nicole Christensen, and Steve

Springer teamed recently to open a new Compass Real Estate office at 4688 Cass St.

“We’re residential agents who do a little bit of commercial,” said Booth. “Springer and I ba-sically took over the lease and did a pretty comprehensive ren-ovation of the inside and outside of the building, which is a little over 1,000 square feet. So we now have our own little national bro-kerage on Cass and Diamond.”

The timing of the trio is good. Business is booming.

“When all this (COVID) hit in March, we weren’t sure what was going to happen,” admitted Booth. “But since pretty quick-ly afterward it’s been full steam ahead. Stuff is selling for well over the listing price, and there are lots of offers on most listings.”

More than six months after the initial coronavirus lockdown, Booth noted: “We’re still very busy. That’s even become more so in the last four or five months. If it (market) tracks the way it’s been going, it’s going to be one of my best years, if not my best year ever.”

Why an upturn with the virus downturn?

“A big part of it is interest rates just hit record lows again, and

a lot of people are now working from home, and a lot of compa-nies are saying, ‘You can live where you want,’” replied Booth. “We’ve also got a lot of people who are pulling the trigger on buying who want more space, a bigger place, or a third bedroom.”

A business uptick has been a silver lining in a rapidly chang-ing real estate landscape, with pandemic health protocols forc-ing agents to change how they operate.

“We can’t do open houses any-more so we’ve had to do virtual showings,” noted Booth. “And we have to always wear masks and have to sign more forms even to show a property to buyers. And

buyers have to get pre-approved and pre-qualified before they’re allowed to even see a property.”

Booth grew up in PB, noting his family has lived there since the ’40s.

“I have a couple of kids going to school in PB, and 90% of my busi-ness is here in PB,” he said add-ing of his new office, “It’s a great location near coffee shops and a bakery that just opened. A lot of the locals that live in PB drive up and down Cass several times a day going to the post office or the coffee shop. This location fell into our lap. So we swept it up. We like the vibe on Cass Street.”

Strategic Habitats converting shipping containers into inexpensive housing

By DAVE SCHWAB

A member of Stu Segall Productions television and movie studio is

championing an innovative, afford-able long-term housing solution for San Diego homeless families.

An SDSU and La Jolla High grad who grew up in La Jolla and remains active in the communi-ty, Cory Segall is now involved in exploring new avenues to pursue re-purposing Segall Production’s products and services.

With the introduction of Strategic Habitats, a rehabili-tative housing project, Segall is converting 40-foot-long shipping containers, previously created as training facilities at military bases, into highly serviceable, relatively inexpensive homeless housing.

“With our 18 years of experience in renovating shipping containers, we wanted to do something to help the homeless,” said Segall, who al-so works for Compass Real Estate in the residential market. “It’s 30 to 40 percent cheaper and much faster, to convert shipping contain-ers than to build new construction at a cost ranging from $400,000 to $600,000. We’ve had quite a few people, including different city council members, coming through to see our existing duplex container site in Kearny Mesa.”

Added Segall, “We’ve done tens of thousands of these shipping containers all over the country and the world. We know exactly what to do in building these fast-er, better, cheaper, and to have people live in them.”

Segall noted Strategic Habitats has also been working with local churches, and the Alpha Project providing homeless job training, to find new homes for their cut-ting-edge, converted containers.

Addressing the amenities of container homes, Segall said, “They are retrofitted for electri-cal and plumbing, and best of all they’re movable, not permanent structures, which the City likes.

San Diego Unifi ed removes Trump letter from food baskets

San Diego Unified is removing a letter from President Donald Trump inserted into food baskets because it significantly diminish-es the scientifically-backed im-portance of wearing a mask to protect against the transmission of COVID-19.

The letter from President Donald Trump was placed into boxes of free groceries to be dis-tributed to some 50 million fam-ilies nationwide by school dis-tricts under the USDA Farmers

to Family program. The state’s second-largest district is taking the unprecedented step of remov-ing the letter in order to protect local families from being misled on how to best safeguard them-selves from possibly becoming infected.

“Science is clear: wearing a mask works to prevent the spread of the coronavirus,” Superintendent Cindy Marten said. “Masks are required in California and on every San

Diego Unified school campus. It is not optional, as the President wrote in his letter.”

Trump’s letter recommends that Americans practice social distancing “and consider wear-ing a face covering in public.” Medical experts call masks es-sential to fighting the spread of COVID-19. Many states, includ-ing California, counties and cit-ies mandate masks and social distancing.

Team California wins Nissan Super Girl Surf Pro competitionThe Nissan Super Girl Surf

Pro World Surf League (WSL) specialty event crowned Team California the overall victors and Team Lakey for their individual efforts. Pristine, four-to-six foot swell delivered immaculate con-ditions for some of the world’s best women to showcase their talents with Lakey Peterson and hometown hero Caitlin Simmers leading the charge to the finish line – making her the youngest Super Girl in the event’s prolific history. Joining the list of victors, Alana Nichols and Faith Lennox claimed the iconic Super Girl cape in the adaptive surf competition, further inspiring young women everywhere to get in the water.

All the bragging rights for Team California and Team US came down to the final heat between Team Sage, featuring Championship Tour (CT) veteran Sage Erickson

and notable Qualifying Series (QS) competitor Tia Blanco, facing off against Team Carissa which in-cluded four-time WSL Champion Carissa Moore and the event’s youngest surfer Vaihiti Inso, 13. Team Sage stood their ground after Team US claimed the two previous heat wins and clutch surfing from Blanco secured a victory despite Moore’s spectacular 9.63 (out of a possible 10) in the dying minutes to renew a fading hope.

“Oh my gosh, Tia (Blanco) did so amazing under pressure and did this huge turn so close to me and I was so happy she made it,” said Erickson. “Carissa (Moore) seemed to kind of struggle this event and we knew she’d want to get some big scores in that last heat. Unfortunately I gave her that 9 because we had priority but it all worked out (laughs).”

“Nissan Super Girl Pro is

always one of my favorite events, it’s all about women empower-ment and it’s always a good time,” said Blanco. “It was a lot of work but I had such a blast today and just so blessed I got paired up with Sage (Erickson). She was so calm out in the heats and made sure I was confident the whole time and I loved competing with her the whole time. I think we’re all just so grateful that there has been this event and it’s been awesome to prepare for something.”

Team Lakey couldn’t be stopped on finals day with three big wins to help catapult Team California toward victory with the 14-year-old local competitor Simmers earning a flawless week-end of competition – not losing a single heat. The duo marched through Sunday’s pumping con-ditions, each dropping immac-ulate scores when they needed

them most – Peterson a 9.00 in Round 2 alongside Simmers’ 8.00 in Round 1 and clutch 7.50 in Round 3. Notable victories in-cluded wins over Team Zoe, Team Tatiana, and the event-clinching heat over Team Caroline.

“Today was really fun with the

waves getting way bigger and better with that hurricane swell so Caity (Simmers) just gave me some of that local knowledge and told me where to go,” said Peterson.

17FRIDAY · OCTOBER 16, 2020BEACH & BAY PRESS / LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS

Facing the cultural challenges of my new life in Switzerland in 1965

My last column about my life story was published a cou-ple of years ago. I had gradu-ated from Columbia University at age 38, the oldest member of my class, with a master’s in clinical social work. Two weeks later was my son Paul’s Bar Mitzvah.

My husband’s business was taking him more often to Europe and Asia, and it made no sense for us to stay in America. Our family would be able to spend more time together if we lived in Europe. Switzerland seemed to be the most central, and it was the country Sam felt most at home in because he had gone to school there. He wanted his children to have the same education he had.

The apartment had been sold and the furniture shipped overseas. The day after the Bar Mitzvah, our entire family was on a ship sailing to Europe. Thirty of our friends were at the dock send-ing us off; everyone was crying, including all of us. The trip was uneventful; we were both sad to leave and anxious about our upcoming adventure. The ship docked at Le Havre. We drove to Paris and took a plane to

Lausanne. Lausanne is a lovely city on Lake Geneva. We were able to sublet the apartment of a friend.

My first encounter with the Swiss culture was when I went to the school to register my children. Swiss schools offered two options: a humanities or a science track — both leading to college. Nina opt-ed for the science track; she was the only girl in that section for the entire four-year program. Paul, on the other hand, elected the humanities track. When I asked about lunches at the school, the school director looked at me hor-rified and said, “What madame, you don’t want your children to come home to eat lunch?” Oops. I did not know that all children went home for lunch and then re-turned to school. Not only were students sent home for lunch, but husbands would leave their work and come home for the main meal of the day. (I remember my father also coming home for lunch in Paris in the 1920s.)

Lunch was called “dinner” and dinner was called “souper” (which de facto meant soup with some bread and cheese or cold cuts with a salad and fruit). In the 1960s most women in Switzerland would market every day to be sure that the baguettes were fresh. Our family’s favorite dish turned out to be fondue, dip-ping pieces of bread into warm, melted cheese.

I wanted to use my newly mint-ed social work skills and found a job teaching the principals of case work, which had never been taught in the local school of social work. It was a professional school not affiliated with the universi-ty. Students stood up whenever I entered the classroom, and they were to be called by their last names preceded by mademoiselle or monsieur.

I translated all my class notes from Columbia into French. Case work is the presentation of a prob-lem, which students need to find the best way to help the client to resolve. It was challenging to teach this method, which included starting where the client is and including him or her in finding a solution. Swiss students were raised in a more authoritarian culture. Traditionally, the social work-er was the authority; he or she knew best and told the client what to do and how to do it. The students had difficulty participating because they were accustomed to just being lectured to. When I presented a case, they wanted to know what I thought about it. The hesitancy was due to the fear that they might answer wrong.

I reassured them that wrong answers are good because that is how we learn, but I was not really believed. It took a semester to overcome their

reluctance to participate. It soon became known that I had a strange way of teaching and other teachers would come to classes to observe. This same thing happened few years later when I taught at the University of Lausanne

After the students gradu-ated, most of them had jobs. I supervised them on a weekly basis, discussing their case-load. With time, these stu-dents would become supervi-sors themselves. I organized a graduate class for supervisory training. I particularly enjoyed the personal coaching aspect of this curriculum. What an incredible opportunity and challenge to be able to offer new classes to my Swiss students.

Moreover, I wanted to become a member of the Academy of Certified Social Workers. I found an American woman living in Geneva who was an academy member and was willing to supervise me. The process took many months of driving to Geneva every week. This is how I can put “ACSW” after my name.

Scream Zone open at Del Mar Fairgrounds

San Diego’s fright fest, the Scream Zone, is taking the scares to the streets in Drive-Thru Scream Zone: Road Kill, through Oct. 31 at the Del Mar ‘Scaregrounds’ Fridays and Saturdays 7-11 p.m.

and Sundays-Thursdays 7-10 p.m. at 2260 Jimmy Durante Blvd.

The Scream Zone has been tempting ter-ror-lovers for the past 23 years, but the 2020 event will take a whole new spin. To comply with COVID-19 health and safety protocols, guests will experience the frights from the dis-comfort of their own automobile. Vehicles will weave through a mile-long course trans-formed into scenes from classic horror films and the demented minds of the Scream Zone’s imaginative creators.• Yield to your worst nightmares as you en-

ter Conjuring Row, where paranormal is the norm.

• Keep your doors locked and windows up tight as you pull into the Dead End Truck Stop, be-cause this is Satan’s service station.

• Wave to your neighbors – Freddy, Jason and Chucky. All of your favorite fiends live (and die) at the intersection of Horror Icon Way and Nightmare on Elm Street.

• Continue your joy ride down Clown Alley. From Poltergeist to Pennywise, coulrophobia is no laughing matter!

• There’s only One Way out, and it’s through this deadliest of drives on our Fury Road. At the Drive-Thru Scream Zone: Road Kill,

the only roadside assistance coming to your aid is a triple threat of zombies, serial killers, and killer clowns. Visit thescreamzone.com for more information. All passengers must have their own seatbelt. Only standard-size vehicles can be accommodated. Motorcycles and oversized vehicles – such as RVs, limousines or buses – can not be accommodated.

The Athenaeum presents ‘Zandra Rhodes: Some Artworks’ in La Jolla

The Athenaeum is presenting “Zandra Rhodes: Some Artworks” exhibiting a collection of paint-ings, drawings, and prints, along with small items hand-painted and designed by Zandra Rhodes. All of these fabulous items will be for sale. She has been a lifelong friend of The Athenaeum and has previously featured several ex-hibitions here, which were “The Kaleidoscopic World of Zandra

Rhodes” (1996), “Making Magic in San Diego” (2001), “Diving for the Pearls in San Diego” (2006), and “Verdi’s Aida Through the Eyes of Zandra Rhodes” (2010).

The Athenaeum is asking that people call and make an appoint-ment because they can’t have a lot of people in attendance at once. They expect to show exhibitors around in small groups. Currently they have an exhibition about the pandemic and the protests at their branch in Logan Heights and this is also by reservation only.

The Athenaeum has scheduled local artists for the whole 2021 year and hopes they will be able to show exhibitions again by the beginning of the year. They also have their an-nual juried show and an exhibition concerning the Stuart Collection

on the UC San Diego grounds. It is the 40th anniversary of the Stuart Collection and the 50th for the Geisel Library next year.

If you are not familiar with Rhodes, Sandra Maas just inter-viewed Zandra in her London home. Maas is a talented veteran journal-ist and newscaster and this was for her Trailblazing Women series with the Women’s Museum of California. This amazing interviewer gives you an in-depth look at Rhodes via zoom during her illustrious career and asked Zandra questions you have always wanted to know the answer to.

Questions such as what is your fa-vorite accessory that you can’t live without? She said that it was jewelry by Andrew Logan and she held up one of his pieces that she was wear-ing. Another question was if you

could dress anyone who would it be and what movie star would you like to dress? Take a peek at this in-terview for the answers to these and more questions, trailblazing-wom-en-with-sandra-maas.

Zandra just recently celebrated a retrospective named “50 years of Fabulous” at the Fashion and Textile Museum in London. It was due to open in Scotland this month but has been postponed until next year. Rhodes also just celebrated her 80th birthday af-ter 50 years in fashion and has a launch scheduled in 2021 with IKEA. Some of the stand out achievements for Rhodes was being bestowed the title of Dame Zandra Rhodes by the Queen.

In addition to being a fash-ion designer she has designed the costumes for the opera: The

Magic Flute, the costumes and the sets for the operas Pearl Fishers and Aida.

To make an appointment to view or purchase items in this exhibit, call 858-454-5872. Ask for Jocelyn from Monday-Thursday and Courtney on Friday.
