mong other endeavors, I

spent 2014 writing obituaries.
In some cases, families send me an account of their loved ones life that is
ready to go, save for a few style changes.
Other times, its a collaborative effort,
with me sleuthing out a few pertinent
facts or quotes from the Internet or coaxing out some colorful details in an interview.
Either way, its a task I take seriously.
After all, an obituary is someones last
hurrah. Whether its a modest list of the
milestones in a life or a sprawling patchwork of events, traits, habits and hobbies, your obituary is your biography.
Your story isnt only going to be read
by friends and family members. Along
with the police blotter, obituaries are the
most widely read section of a newspaper.
We want to read about how other people
have lived, because we are all in the
process of deciding how we should live.
When I share that I am an obituary
writer, the news is generally greeted with
a telling, Oh, with the intonation betraying surprise and pity. And why not?
In countless movies, aspiring journalists
finds themselves and their talent hidden
in the dreaded obit beat. Its up to the
tenacious protagonist to demonstrate his
or her reporting chops in order to escape
from editorial purgatory.
Im not that kind of journalist.
I find reading, and writing, a good
obituary to be as uplifting as a self-help
book. The world cant be all bad when
its filled with people like Betty Slaboda,
better known as Grandma Betty,
whose obituary graced the COURIER at
the start of 2013. Shortly before her
death, a grandson asked the 98-year-old
matriarch what it was like to have lived
so long. Her reply is priceless: Oh,
honey, it all went so fast.
It certainly helps that the COURIER
has a longstanding tradition of respect
for the dead. There are some limits, but
its an honor to be able to tell families,
There is no per-word limit. Include
what you feel is needed to tell the story.
Id like to share with you the biggest
lessons Ive gleaned from a year of
telling stories.
Ive discovered that its all about the
small stuff. Yes, the big thingseducation, career, creative undertakings and
recognitionare important. But the
things that people remember most fondly
are the little details. They are certainly
what I recall most when the names begin
to blur together.
It matters that Bill Chetney, whose
obituary ran at the start of this month,
had a venerable career. It is his knack for
celebration, however, that strikes me:
Mr. Chetney loved to entertain, and
many functions were held at the Chetney

home on Lafayette Road. . .New Years
Day parties went from morning to night.
Birthdays could transform the backyard
into Chetney Beach or a pirates cove. A
move or a remodel became an event,
filled with friends and food. A good time
was had by all.
What better tribute is there? In a world
plagued by crime, environmental crises,
economic uncertainties and war, we need
good times.
Ray Eberle (August 2014), a lifelong
baseball lover who was dubbed
Mickey by his family for his hot bat
and beautiful blue eyes, was an accomplished college administrator. He also
shone at home, however, as a standout
patriarch: He was an indulgent and loving grandfather, soothing cranky babies
(and their parents), playing catch, reading stories and buying everyone ice
cream.
It is likely that Dan Rhoades (January
2014) shared many words of wisdom
with the students he taught at the Claremont School of Theology. His sons,
however, remember his favorite phrase,
which he used as a humorous affirmation. He told them repeatedly, Youre a
good man, Charlie Brown. It may have
been silly, but it must have been nice to
hear.
Margaret Boggess, who died this May
at a venerable 100 years old, was a true
artist in the garden and, whenever anyone visited, she would present them with
a jar of homemade jam or can of pickles.
She was also down-to-earth figuratively
speaking, with a granddaughter sharing
that, She was a very poised woman but,
as she used to say, she loved a beer

straight from the can now and then.
After reading in the same obit that the
late Mrs. Boggess, an able seamstress,
used to say, handiwork is a womans
sanity, I even ventured to Michaels.
Realizing there was no handiwork in my
life, I purchased some wooden hoops,
fabric and embroidery floss and started a
needlework project. After all, Mrs.
Boggess was able to keep it together for
a century and, as an often-stressed working mother, I am open to posthumous
suggestions.
I could go on and on, but this is not intended to be a laundry list. It is, instead,
my tribute to the small ways we triumph
and shine every time we make someone
laugh, even if its just ourselves; every
time we inject a bit of fun into drudgery;
and every time we make someone feel
important.
I have my own memories of my own
loved ones who have died and, again, its
the quirks I cherish.
Its the way my grandmother, Roberta
McCarty, loved to recite Edgar Allen
Poes Annabel Lee, the words inevitably bringing her to tears. Its the
way my grandfather, Clyde McCarty,
took advantage of the privacy of his
ranch in Redding, occasionally riding
around on his tractor wearing only
Speedos. (I know, its not a dignified anecdote, but its indicative of his casual
charm.)
Im also touched when I remember
the way my great-aunt Florence Iavelli,
who lived through the Depression, always made sure I was nourished. As we
waited for our food at a restaurant, she
would pour me a small portion of the
cream intended for coffee, urging me to
drink it.
I will find myself writing many more
obituaries at the COURIER in the coming year, and I will keep looking for
those anecdotes that amuse or move me.
And while it is my sincerest hope that
you dont have to lose someone you
love, if it happens I will be glad to tell
their story.

CITY NEWS
Water issue took Claremont by storm in 2014
he year ended much as it began for

the city of Claremont, in litigation
with Golden State Water Company.
Only this time, the water table has turned
and its the City of Trees doing the suing.
After years of discussion and hard work,
Claremont has taken the next step in its
battle for control of the local water system
and filed an eminent domain lawsuit
against its owner and operator, Golden
State Water Company.
Boy, what a difference a year makes!

In December 2013, the city was left to answer to
Golden State after the company filed a Writ of Mandate
against Claremont, seeking the release of the citys feasibility study. The privately-owned water company alleged the city lacked transparency and had not complied
with the California Public Records Act and instead rejected requests to produce documents that supported
charts and graphs shown by the city at a public meeting
in November 2013.

fter nearly a year of

input from city officials, community
members and park consultants,
the Claremont Hills Wilderness Park (CHWP) Master
Plan is beginning to take
shape, with a draft scheduled
for review in March 2015.
The process has been challenging,
with hits and misses along the way, but
residents remain hopeful their concerns
will be addressed.
In December 2013, the city contracted

with MIG Consulting to work with staff
and the community in preparing a comprehensive master plan for the CHWP,
seeking to strike a balance between environmental conservation and passive
recreational use. In addition, MIG was
asked to update the current management
plan for thecity-owned 2,000-acre preserveand incorporate various documents
and agreements that guide its operation
and maintenance.
One of the first steps in developing the
CHWP Master Plan included creating a
Technical Advisory Committee (TAC),
whose members were appointed by the
mayor. The TAC is comprised of 11

community members representing
neighborhoods, conservation groups,
recreation and open space users, as well
as the community at large. Some residents have been critical of the composition of the group.
There are no plant or wildlife experts,
no geologists, no trail development experts, no county fire department personnel, almost none representing users

McHenry noted in a viewpoint published
in the COURIER. In fact, its composition makes it more of a political action

The parks increase in popularity has
remained a top concern for residents and

Claremont Wilderness Park has skyrocketed from a reported 30,000 visitors
in 2006 to an estimated 500,000 annually,

September. With the assistance of numerous volunteers, MIG collected its

aby-talkers, black cats

and all-around bad guys
and gals are just a few
of the off-the-wall features that
turned up in this years Claremont crime log. From Oak
Park Cemetery vandals to a
teen with a car full of cannabis,
heres a look back at the crime
stories that made headlines in
2014.
January
A hot air balloon over the City of
Trees kicked off the New Year for
Claremont police, who received numerous calls on January 11 regarding an
unusual traffic hazard. The wayward
balloon had taken off from Cable Airport as part of the annual air show and
made an emergency landing in the
Claremont High School parking lot,
mere feet away from a light pole. The
operator planned to land at The Claremont Colleges but, as he explained to
officers, I go wherever the wind takes
me. Unfortunately for him, it wasnt a
valid enough excuse for an aircraft accident investigator, who reported the illegal parking job to the Federal
Aviation Administration.
February
A female driver decided it was a
good idea to go off-roading through
Oak Park Cemetery on February 23,
leaving behind quite a bit of damage:
three smashed gravestones, a broken
water pipe that was shooting water into
the air and tire marks across the grassy
area. Investigation revealed that the
woman, Rosa Perez, was driving under
the influence with two children in her
car, according to police. Detectives
identified Ms. Perez in July as the
driver of the white Honda and she was
later charged with vandalism and child
neglect.
March
The community was rattled when a
12-year-old Claremont girl was physically and sexually assaulted in her own
home. The preteen was home alone on
March 20 when she was awoken from
her sleep due to strange noises. Based
on evidence found at the scene, 34year-old Joseph Chandler Davall was
arrested on April 19 at his Yucca Valley
home. The date farmer was charged and
plead not guilty to seven felony counts
in Los Angeles County, including two
counts of aggravated sexual assault of a
child; one count each of forcible rape;
sexual penetration by foreign object;
and assault to commit a felony during
the commission of first-degree burglaries. Trial is scheduled to begin in
Pomona on January 5.
April
Police were greeted with a couple of
bizarre scenes at Oak Park Cemetery on
April 1 after discovering blood and
feathers leading up to the remains of a
decapitated rooster. A bloody kitchen
knife, held as evidence by Claremont

police, was found underneath a tree in
the south portion of the cemetery. The
following day, three gravestones were
reported missing, each containing a
bronze placard. There were no witnesses or suspects in either crime.
May
The Claremont Police Department
made local headlines on May 5 following an officer-involved shooting. Lt.
Jason Walters shot suspect Marcel Herrera while patrolling in search of a reported stolen vehicle. As the officer
drove closer to the vehicle, the car sped
away. Moments later, police located the
car, which appeared to be empty and
approached it on foot. The driver, Mr.
Herrera, suddenly put the car in reverse
toward the officer, at which time the officer shot at the vehicle, striking the 24year-old in the upper torso. Mr. Herrera
entered a plea of no contest to two of
the three felony counts against him, including assault upon a police officer
and unlawful driving or taking of a vehicle. He will spend upwards of three
years in jail for his crime.
June
Justice was finally delivered to a former child psychologist convicted of inappropriately touching children.
Thomas Gary Amberson, 58, pled no
contest on June 23 to two felony counts
of performing a lewd act upon a child.
He was sentenced to eight years in state
prison and must register as a sex offender for life. The Upland resident had
a practice in Claremont and one of his
patients revealed to his parents that the
defendant touched him inappropriately
during therapy sessions in 2010. The
case was investigated by the Los Angeles Police Department.
August
Two middle-aged ladies started their
Girls Night Out a bit early and were
arrested in the afternoon for being
drunk in public. Officers responded to
the 1300 block of North Towne Avenue
after receiving a call around 12:30 p.m.
regarding two women who were asking
patrons for money and appeared impaired after a witness observed the pair
stumbling into a glass storefront window. Officers made contact with San
Dimas residents Jennifer Williams, 41,
and Lisa McIntyre, 45, and determined
the women were indeed intoxicated.
Ms. Williams tried to baby-talk her way
out of trouble by repeatedly changing
the tone of her voice to that of a small
child and then admitted to having a
wittle vodka earlier, police reported. In
a preliminary alcohol-screening test,
Ms. Williams blew a 3.1, nearly four
times the legal limit. In addition, police
discovered Ms. McIntyre had an outstanding warrant for her arrest. The gals
were booked and released on bail with
a citation.

Rust was spotted in a church parking
lot and approached by police around 6
a.m. after smelling the odor of marijuana coming from his vehicle. The 19year-old told police he delivered for a
marijuana dispensary and a search of
his car revealed he was well-stocked
with 13 plastic bags containing marijuana, baked goods containing marijuana, a vaporizer containing a black
tar-like liquid concentrated cannabis
and $445 in cash. Mr. Rust was unable
to provide any documentation that he
worked for a dispensary or that he was
allowed to possess such a large amount
of marijuana. The Inglewood man was
arrested and released on $20,000 bail.

Road rage reared its ugly head off the
210 freeway and Base Line Road on
September 20, resulting in a fight on
the freeway shoulder and an off-duty
officer drawing his weapon on the enraged drivers. Around 6:43 p.m., two
drivers who had been brake-checking
and cutting each other off on the freeway had finally had enough when 24year-old Jancarlo Gutierrez pulled to
the shoulder to let the other driver pass
by. The other driver, who is considered
the victim in the incident, followed suit
and approached Mr. Gutierrez car. According to Lt. Mike Ciszek, the pair exchanged a few obscenities before the
victim allegedly began punching the
suspect repeatedly in the face and
wouldnt let him out of his vehicle. Mr.
Gutierrez then grabbed a knife from the
car and slashed a four-inch laceration
into the victims left arm, causing him
to step back and enabling Mr. Gutierrez
to leave his vehicle. The men continued
to fight outside the car until an off-duty
police officer stopped and ordered both
to ground by gunpoint. Mr. Gutierrez of
San Bernardino was arrested for assault. No charges were filed against the
other driver, as it was determined he
acted in self-defense.
October
Claremont High School cafeteria
worker Vanessa Tinoco was arrested on
October 6 and charged with oral copulation of a person under 18 and unlawful sexual intercourse. The Pomona
resident initially entered a plea of not
guilty but changed her plea to no contest on December 22 as part of a deal
with Los Angeles County prosecutors.
The 33-year-old food service worker
was sentenced to three years formal
probation with a three-year suspended
prison sentence. Ms. Tinoco will serve
one year in county jail and must register as a sex offender upon her release.
One count of oral copulation of a person under 18 was dismissed as part of
the plea deal. The court also issued a
stay-away order of protection for the
victim.

A knife-wielding woman attacked a
pest control man after a bee outside a
Village business allegedly stung her.
According to Lt. Ciszek, the commercial pest control technician was hired
by a private business located on the 200
block of Yale Avenue to remove bees
from a tree when the suspect, Pomona
resident Samantha Watt, confronted
him. The suspect told police the incident began after she was stung by a bee
and was trying to get the victim to get
her antihistamine and demanded that he
take her to the hospital. When he refused, the 29-year-old woman allegedly
pulled out a 12-inch knife and began
chasing the victim around the street.
When asked if she was going to stab
the victim, Ms. Watt responded, F*ck,
yeah. He had it coming. Hes a shitty
person! Ms. Watt was arrested for assault with great bodily injury and was
transferred to Century Regional Detention Facility on a medical issue. She
was later charged with misdemeanor
assault with a deadly weapon and entered a plea of not guilty. A pretrial
hearing was set for December 29.

nabbed the award after reducing the
amount of waste produced at the school
by 95 percent, going from nearly 1,000
bags of trash per year to less than 100.
Vista shared the top honors with Parrass Middle School in Redondo Beach,
with both schools beating out 22 other

The school is using the money it won
to create an outdoor kitchen at the garden site, where students can taste the
fruits of their labor.
Modeling excellence
In November, the Claremont Unified
School Districts continuation school,
San Antonio High School (SAHS), was
named a Model Continuation School.
The honor is jointly awarded by the California Department of Education and the
California Continued Education Association.
SAHS garnered the title after its application, detailing the strengths of the
campus, caught the attention of the
Model Continuation School board. They
paid a visit to the campus and were duly
impressed.
Principal Sean Delgado said that the
elements of the schools culture that he
stressed in the application included the
widespread use of technology, the many
beneficial community partnerships
such as the use of Claremont Colleges
interns to help run the high schools large

Mr. Delgado said of the coup.
A pretty good gig
Claremont schools have been obtaining iPads at a fast rate, given that under
the new Common Core standards, state
testingwhich will begin this spring
will be undertaken online by students
using tablets.
In the past year, CUSD has gained 600
new iPads, taking the number of tablets
available to students to a grand total of
2,600. This is on top of the 2,000 or so
desktop or laptop computers at various
Claremont school sites.
The purchase of the tablets, which is
expected to continue as needed, albeit at
a slower pace, has been underwritten by
a combination of district funding, contributions from the Claremont Educational
Foundation and fundraising on the part
of Parent Faculty Associations at various
schools. San Antonio High School is
ahead of the curve, with an iPad in the
hands of nearly ever student.
Kids in Claremont schools are currently becoming accustomed to using

iPads for educational purposes via apps,
including some whose aim is to help students create media-rich presentations.
Sometime in the future, CUSD students
may also find themselves perusing their
textbooks on iPads.
Aware that digital education is the
wave of the future, the district has made
sure that the majority of iPads it purchases have 32 gigabytes of memory in
order to support computerized textbooks,
according to Director of Technology
Damon Rapp.
In addition, while CUSD textbooks
are currently all print versions, any new
textbooks selectedincluding the California GO Math! series adopted this
year for K-6 studentsmust have a digital version available for future use.
Get on board
In November 5, 2013, four candidates
ran for three spots on the Claremont Unified School District Board of Education.
The winners, incumbent Steven Llanusa
and newcomers Dave Nemer and Nancy
Treser Osgood, first took their places at
the dais at a December 2013 school

board meeting. Mr. Llanusa also had the
distinction of being named president of
the school board.
At a school board meeting held on December 18, 2014, Mr. Nemer and Ms.
Treser Osgood expressed their satisfaction with their first year on the board,
which they characterized as a learning
experience. Mr. Nemer, joking that he
had been a tabula rasa or blank slate at
the beginning of his freshman year,
thanked the senior board members and
district personnel for showing him the
ropes. Ms. Treser Osgood expressed special gratitude to Mr. Llanusa for his collaborative spirit, warmth and humor.
Nothing that Mr. Llanusa often writes
a limerick befitting transitional times on
the board, board member Hilary LaConte tried her hand at a rhyme in honor
of the outgoing president: There once
was a pres named Steven/Who had us all
achieving/The year was so smooth/No
room to improve/So thanks to our pres
named Steven.
Mr. Llanusa said he was flattered but
insisted that credit for the smooth year
go to the entire board, a sentiment he repeated in a subsequent COURIER interview.
The board has functioned so well as
a whole, and I think that sort of cooperation has permeated throughout the district.
Assistant superintendent bids adieu
November 20, 2014 marked the last
board meeting for Assistant Superintendent of Educational Services Bonnie
Bell, whose four-and-a-half years with
the district have coincided with one of
the most transformative periods in curriculum in recent history.
Ms. Bell presided over the districts
transition to the new Common Core curriculum, organizing staff training and a
number of meetings familiarizing parents and other stakeholders with the new
form of curriculum and assessment.
Ms. Bell will become Superintendent
of the Lowell Joint School District in the
Whittier/La Habra Heights areas. She

responded to a battery call at Walters
around 1:20 a.m. where they arrested
26-year-old Kayvan Fard. The Los Angeles resident had been involved in an
altercation with another customer and
when security intervened, he punched
them in the face. Mr. Fard briefly lost
consciousness after the fight and had to
be transported by ambulance to Montclair Medical Hospital. When the officer returned to his vehicle around 2
a.m., he heard heavy breathing then
saw 25-year-old Vanessa Zambrano,
who was dressed in a black cat cos-
tume, passed out in the back seat. The

San Marcos resident was arrested for
being drunk and disorderly and released
on $250 bail.
December
The year closed with the arrest of
two suspects wanted in the December 2
robbery of the Arco AM/PM gas station
at the corner of Foothill and Claremont
Boulevards. 27-year-old Carlos Montejano and 23-year-old Christopher Devora, both from Los Angeles, were
captured by LAPD on December 18
and remain behind bars. The suspects
simulated a handgun under their clothing and demanded money from the register. The clerk complied then the
robbers fled on foot east through the
parking lot.

WATER FIGHT/from page 3
Takeover, issued a cease-and-desist demand against the

city, claiming that the mailer was advocacy-oriented and
violated the laws against using public funds for campaign materials.
he weeks leading up to the election

offered many opportunities for
Claremont voters to learn about the
ballot measure.
The Claremont Chamber of Commerce hosted a seminar in September. The following month, Active Claremont hosted a two-hour forum at the Hughes Center.
Freeman Allen, in favor of the ballot measure, argued
the purchase would lower water bills, allowing the city
to set its own water rates and look towards future provisions for water reclamation. Mark Sterba, against the
measure, argued the citys feasibility study is flawed,
and that ratepayers would be taking on an enormous
debt without knowing how the system would be run.
Just prior to the election, Golden State released its
second analysis of the Claremont water system in draft
form. The draft analysis included a review of the 150
miles of pipe, 17 wells, 11 reservoirs, 11 booster stations
and 11,065 customer meters that make up the Claremont system, which estimated the replacement value of
the system to be $222,772,010.
Regardless of the $222 million price tag given to the
water system by Golden State, Claremont voters overwhelmingly passed Measure W on November 4 with 71
percent in favor, a significantly higher percentage than
needed to move forward with the potential acquisition.
Given the green light by voters, the city didnt waste
any time in moving forward with eminent domain. Two
resolutions of necessity were prepared for the city councils consideration, one governing the interests of the
Claremont system located within the city and a second

Claremont to discuss the November water bond measure.
for the small portions of the water system located outside of the city in parts of Montclair, Upland and
Pomona as well as a small, unincorporated area of Los
Angeles County.
The Claremont City Council unanimously adopted
both resolutions on November 25, authorizing the citys
proposed acquisition of Golden State Water Companys
Claremont water system by eminent domain.

As we move into 2015, the legal battle for ownership
of the Claremont water system will get messy. Theres
no quick fix and an eminent domain fight could take
years in court. Regardless, for 71 percent of Claremont
voters, its well worth the fight.

WILDERNESS PARK/from page 3
surveys, conducted on varies dates and

times from late spring through mid-summer 2014.
An understanding of the magnitude of
park visitation may be sufficient to develop policies and implementation actions if the goal of the master plan is to
manage the impacts associated with park
usage rather than establishing a maximum number of visits per year, says
MIG.
Given the current impact on those who
live closest to the nearly 2,000-acre preserve, managing it would be a welcome
idea. The growing number of visitors has
created an equally concerning issue of
traffic congestion, safety and enforcement. Packed parking lots have led to
street parking and cars jammed bumperto-bumper along adjacent streets.
In April 2014, the city council attempted to solve the problem by adding
additional permit parking-only zones on
three residential cul-de-sacs next to the
wilderness areaHolyoke Place,
Macalester Place and Forsyth Place.
These permit parking zones are expected
to sunset in September 2015, along with
a slew of other wilderness loop parking
restrictions, as the city works on an overarching master plan to solve lingering
parking problems. Realizing this was
only a temporary solution, the city council issued a moratorium on further parking restrictions until the master plan has
been adopted.

Park visitors fill out survey forms at the Claremont Hills Wilderness Park in July.
Volunteers with the city counted park visitors and asking them to provide some
details about their use of the park.
Feedback from the community has

been considered creating the CHWP
Master Plan. Several meetings were held
throughout the year, with many residents
speaking out on the conditions of the
trail. While not wanting to limit the number of people who use the park, many
voiced that is has become increasingly
difficult to share the paths. Retractable
dog leashes, and hikers wearing headphones unaware of approaching cyclists
as well as discarded water bottles and
other trash are also said to be a part of the
problem.
All of these factors may also be having

an affect on the park as a whole.
Bonterra Psomas, an environmental
planning and resource management service, conducted a baseline environmental
assessment and identified areas in the
park where disturbance has affected environmental conditions. Although the
study area was found to be in overall
good condition, several areas need to be
addressed, including the use of unauthorized trails as well as the presence of litter and human waste.
Strategically placed port-a-potties were
available in the park earlier in the year,

only to be removed. They were replaced
by city council in hopes of solving the human waste problem. Trash cans located
throughout the park have proved to be a
temporary solution, although MIG suggests the city consider bear-resistant containers for the master plan.
The location of the wilderness area in
a high fire risk zone has caused additional concern. The park has been closed
six times this year due to drought conditions and high winds, a prime recipe for
wildfire. Closing the park during such
conditions can take Community Services more than four hours to complete.
The city council approved a temporary modification to the CHWP Management Plan, authorizing the city manager to automatically close the park
during a Red Flag Warning for the San
Gabriel Valley as issued by the National
Weather Service. The policy is also under
review to be a permanent part of the master plan.
A Technical Advisory Committee
meeting regarding the Wilderness Park
Master Plan will be held at 6 p.m. on
January 12, 2015 in the Padua Room at
the Hughes Center. Members will summarize input and narrow down plan options as well as provide more cost analysis. The meeting is open to the public.

My freshman year on the school board: A learning experience

by Dave Nemer, CUSD school board member
never thought I would run for school board, but

everything changed in July of 2013, when I heard
that two incumbents might be stepping down. I
was concerned about the schools, and intrigued
by the possibility of taking on a new role. After several
weeks of doubt and fear, countered by unwavering encouragement from my loving wife, I finally filed election papers the day before the deadline.
My campaign was disorganized, a day late and a dollar short until the home stretch. But perseverance, the
efforts of key supporters and a positive response from
voters ultimately delivered a win. I was surprised. If I
had known I was going to win, I would have enjoyed the
campaign more. The next day, I felt overwhelmed, but I
didnt have much time for that. There was work to do,
and a steep learning curve to climb. I already knew quite
a bit about issues and people in the district, but I didnt really know how the school board functioned.
I received immediate help from the school board
members and Superintendent Elsasser, and I began to figure things out. In December, we all attended the annual
California School Board Association conference, which
was very helpful. In one particularly memorable training
session, new board members were told, First youre
sworn in, and then youre sworn at. I am happy to report
that so far I have not experienced the second part, at least
not in my role as school board member.
I definitely had lucky timing. My freshman year coincided with positive developments in the district and improved revenue from the state. CUSD students were
successful in a wide range of achievements. The new
Common Core State Standards, though challenging for
students and extra work for teachers, progressed from a
VIEWPOINT
feared ordeal to an increasingly viable array of educational practices. Restored funding was finally available
for employee salaries and programs that had been financially squeezed for many years. With community involvement, new local control procedures were effectively
implemented by the district.
All of my work-related relationships were positive and
constructive. I have been especially lucky to work with
Jim Elsasser in my first year. The board itself was a good
fit, and continues to function well as a team. It is important to note that all school board decisions are group decisions. We dont always agree on everything, but that is
a strength as long as we keep moving forward as a team.
Much of what board members do involves simply supporting, encouraging and publicly appreciating the great
things that are always going on in the district. This is fun
and easy. We visit schools and attend events. We smile,
wave and make positive comments, and we usually receive encouraging feedback in return. This is an enjoyable aspect of serving as an elected public official.
However, the work of school board members is not all
sweetness and light, because we are concerned about the
roughly 7000 students and their parents, the 650 or so
employees, and a highly vocal community. It is inevitable
that within this domain there is always someone, somewhere, who is unhappy about something, and expects us
to fix it.
We do all we can to address concerns, but most minor
issues are not subject to direct control by the school
board. We cant micromanage. And in most situations,
we cant even speak as freely as we might want to, which

has been extremely challenging for me. Before I was
elected, I could say whatever I wanted to say about practically anything. And I exercised that freedom frequently.
I wrote dozens of letters to the COURIER, spoke openly
at school board meetings and other public forums, and
talked uninhibitedly with friends. But now, ironically
enough, I cant communicate freely most of the time, for
the following reasons:
Anything discussed by the school board in closed
session is confidential and cannot be divulged. This includes information pertaining to personnel matters, real
estate deals, contract negotiations or legal proceedings.
Communication that might seem to be perfectly natural and appropriate could violate the well-intentioned
yet complicated Brown Act (Californias Open Meetings
Law).
Anything I might say as a private individual can,
and will be, perceived as a statement representing the
school board, even if I include clear disclaimers indicating that I am only speaking for myself.
The official spokesperson of the school board is the
president. Public comments about important or complicated issues should come from the spokesperson.
Some issues are not within the purview of school
board members. We are essentially responsible for longterm planning and direction, not day-to-day operations.
Our best response to day-to-day concerns is to refer them
to the superintendent.
Board members personal opinions have to be expressed carefully, or withheld, to avoid damaging the internal dynamics of the board. This is like being married
to five people (including the superintendent). We all need
to be considerate of our spouses and maintain positive
relationships for the sake of our 7000 kids.
Even if all of the above are taken into account,
sometimes it is unwise to speak freely because the timing isnt good. Patience is a virtue.
So I usually keep myself muzzled, for the good of the
cause. Other challenges include trying to remember the
names of hundreds of people Ive met since taking on
this role, and being prepared to spring into school board
mode with little or no noticeno matter what I might
be doingwhether shopping at Trader Joes, pulling
weeds or walking our dog Maxo. I also have to be more
careful now with my attire and humor, seriously.
In many ways, this is a character-building experience,
all for the good. What matters most is the opportunity to
work constructively in a leadership role to address our
most important responsibility, educating our kids for the
future. Thank you, Claremont.

audiences on their feet in every corner of

Pavilion stage in a toe-tapping, hand-clap-
16
ping extravaganza. Buddy is the story of

Buddy Holly, who changed the face of
popular music over 55 years ago. The musical highlights the last few years of
Buddy Hollys life and how he and his
high-school friends, the Crickets, turned
country music upside down and created a
unique-style of sound which some called
the devils music. From Buddys frustrations at Decca Records to his success at
the Apollo Theatre, Buddy artistically
portrays the music and the man who forever changed the nation. It recreates his

CUSD/continued from page 5
a 30-year-plus career in education, beginning with a tenure as classroom

teacher.
At the December 18 school board
meeting, Kevin Ward, assistant superintendent of human resources, presented a
candidate for the post of assistant superintendent of educational services for
board approval. Out of 43 applicants, six
of whom were interviewed, Myrlene
Pierre was recommended for the job.
The board unanimously approved her
appointment to CUSD.
A feature on Ms. Pierre will appear in
an upcoming COURIER.
Making new princi-pals
There was also a change-up at various
elementary schools this year.
When Mountain Views principal
Clara Dehmer became assistant principal
of student services at Claremont High
School last February, Natalie Taylor
who spent a decade as a classroom
teacher at Oakmont Elementary
Schoolstepped in as interim administrator. At the beginning of this year, Ms.
Taylor became Mountain Views official
leader.
Ms. Taylor started as a substitute, exclusively working in CUSD, and never
looked back. Among her accomplishments is introducing a new, streamlined
mission statement for the school:

Mountain View believes all learners can
reach individual academic success
through critical thinking and collaboration.
The Chaparral Roadrunners also received a new leader in the form of Principal Lisa Yamashta. While at USC, Ms.
Yamashita changed her original college
major from chemical engineering to education, her science background is likely
to help her get students excited about
STEM subjects (science, technology, engineering and math), which are considered more important than ever.
Mr. Ward noted that Ms. Yamashitas
strength at working with special education students and English learners was a
key reason for her hiring.
Play therapy
St. Patricks Day was a lucky day for
kids at Danbury Elementary School,
Claremonts K-6 site specializing in educating kids with physical disabilities
and health impairments. Danbury held
an open house that day, showcasing its
new Occupational Therapy Clinic.
Checking out the new digs, school
board member Dave Nemer dubbed it
stealth therapy, because the room features a state-of-the-art gym that looks
more like a playground. Kids can soar on
swings, roll in a barrel, grapple their way
up a climbing wall and balance and
18

Jenny Blacksher during an open house for the Occupational Therapy Center at
Danbury Elementary School in March.
bounce on a large inner tube. The Occupational Therapy Clinic, which took
about three years to createfrom concept to completionalso includes an office, a conference room and a speech
therapy room.
They are also enjoying the expertise of
some new personnel at Danbury, including two occupational therapists, Elyse
Steffens and Jeniffer Blacksher. With
Danburys 75 students, as well as special
education students from other CUSD
sites, receiving therapy locally as opposed to being transported to other OT
gyms, the district will save an average of
$160,000 per year, according to Danbury
Principal Stephen Hamilton.
At your service
This August, just before school
started, CUSD held an open house for its
new Service Center, located on the same
property as the districts Kirkendall Education Center.
The 8,400-square-foot steel manufactured building, with a customized interior, is considerably more streamlined
than the districts previous Service Center, a 70-year-old monstrosity that was a
sprawling 10,000-square-feet-plus in
size.
You had to go from room-to-room
and everything was open. It was like a
catacomb, Service Center Director Rick
Cota said.
The old Service Center property was
sold at auction in May of 2013 and
fetched a $7 million price from homebuilder D.R. Horton.
The cost for construction of the new
Service Center came in a bit over the
$1.6 million bid. Mr. Cota said he and his

department are pleased with the results.
It feels efficient, he said. Theres no
waste of space.
Up on the rooftops
With California experiencing a historic drought, everyone has been praying
for raineveryone except for administration at Claremont High School and the
staff of the CUSD facilities department.
This is because, for years, Claremont
High School has experienced serious
leakage problems on roofs throughout
the campus.
Those whose spirits have been dampened by the ongoing problem will be relieved to hear that at the last school board
meeting of 2014, the board voted that the
district can send roofing improvements
at CHS to bid.
The Garland Company has inspected
the roofs at CHS and concluded that,
with the exception of roof on the newlyrenovated Don P. Fruechte Theatre for
the Performing Arts, which celebrated its
grand opening in March of 2013, every
roof on the campus must either be replaced or repaired.
The folks at Garland say the job will
cost the district about $2 million, which
will come out of the districts Capital Reserves. District personnel and the board
are eager to see what kind of bids come
in for what is widely agreed-upon as
CUSDs most pressing capital project.

Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness
of the street address and other common designation,
if any, shown herein. Said sale will be held, but
without covenant or warranty, express or implied,
regarding title, possession, condition, or encumbrances, including fees, charges and expenses of

heretofore executed and delivered to the undersigned a written Declaration of Default and Demand for Sale, and a written Notice of Default

property lien, you should understand that there are
risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You
will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction
does not automatically entitle you to free and
clear ownership of the property. You should also
be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be
a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the
auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned
off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that
may exist on this property by contacting the
county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for
this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender
may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust
on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY
OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of
sale may be postponed one or more times by the
mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to section 2924g of the California Civil
Code. The law requires that information about
trustee sale postponements be made available to you
and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present
at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale
date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the
rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (619)590-1221 or visit the Internet Web Site WWW.DLPPLLC.COM using the
file number assigned to this case 1384417-31. Information about postponements that are very
short in duration or that occur close in time to the
scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected
in the telephone information or on the Internet
Web Site. The best way to verify postponement
information is to attend the scheduled sale. FOR

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
California Municipal Finance Authority
PACE Program
THE CALIFORNIA MUNICIPAL
FINANCE AUTHORITY GIVES
NOTICE that:
1. Intention to Form a Contractual Assessment Program; Proposed Boundaries.
Pursuant to a resolution entitled `À Resolution Declaring Intention to Finance or Refinance the Installation of Distributed
Generation Renewable Energy Sources, Energy Efficiency Improvements, Water Efficiency
Improvements,
Seismic
Strengthening Improvements, Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure and Other Work,
Infrastructure or Improvements Authorized
by Law,`` adopted on December 12, 2014
(the ``Resolution of Intention``), the Board
of Directors (the ``Board of Directors``) of
the California Municipal Finance Authority
(the `Àuthority``) has determined that it
would be convenient, advantageous, and in
the public interest to designate an area,
which shall encompass the entire geographic
territory within the boundaries of every California county and city that is a member of
the Authority (collectively, the ``Covered Jurisdictions``), within which the Authority
and property owners within the Covered Jurisdictions may enter into contractual assessments to finance or refinance the
installation of distributed generation renewable energy sources, energy efficiency improvements, water efficiency improvements,
seismic strengthening improvements, electric vehicle charging infrastructure and such
other work, infrastructure or improvements
as may be authorized by law from time to
time that are permanently fixed to real property, all in accordance with Chapter 29 of
Part 3 of Division 7 of the Streets & Highways Code of the State of California, as
amended (``Chapter 29``) (the `Àuthorized
Improvements``).
The Authority will not enter into contractual
assessments to finance or refinance the installation of Authorized Improvements with
the owner of any property in a Covered Jurisdiction until such Covered Jurisdiction has
provided consent as set forth in the Resolution of Intention.
The Resolution of Intention, including the
exhibits thereto, is on file with the Secretary
of the Board of Directors and reference is
made thereto for the particular provisions
thereof.
2. Report. Pursuant to the Resolution of Intention, the Board of Directors ordered
preparation of a report (the ``Report``) at or
before the time of the public hearing that
contains all of the matters described in Sections 5898.22 and 5898.23.
3. Contract. Chapter 29 authorizes the Authority and property owners within the Covered Jurisdictions to enter into contractual
assessments to finance or refinance the installation of Authorized Improvements. The
Report will contain a draft contract (the
``Contract``) specifying the terms and conditions that would be agreed to by the Authority and property owners within each
Covered Jurisdiction.
4. Financing Provisions. The Board of Directors determined in the Resolution of Intention that it is in the public interest for the
Authority to finance or refinance the installation of Authorized Improvements in each
Covered Jurisdiction. Under Chapter 29 and
the Improvement Bond Act of 1915, the Authority may issue bonds that are payable by
contractual assessments and the Authority
may advance its own funds to finance work
to be repaid through contractual assessments, and may from time to time sell bonds
to reimburse itself for such advances.
5. Public Hearing. A public hearing will be
held at 11:00 a.m., on January 16, 2015, at
City Hall, 200 S. Anaheim Blvd., 6th Floor,
Anaheim, California 92805, for the purposes
of allowing interested persons to object to or
inquire about the proposed contractual assessment program or any of its particulars.
The public hearing may be continued from
time to time as determined by the Board of
Directors for a time not exceeding a total of
180 days.
At the time of the hearing, the Report will be
summarized and the Board of Directors will
afford all persons who are present an opportunity to comment upon, object to, or present
evidence with regard to the proposed contractual assessment program, the extent of
the area proposed to be included within the
program, the terms and conditions of the
draft Contract, or the proposed financing
provisions.
6. More Information. For additional information, please contact Anthony Stubbs, California

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
IMPOSING AN INTERIM URGENCY
ORDINANCE REGARDING
A MORATORIUM ON ALL NEW
MASSAGE ESTABLISHMENTS
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN, that the City
Council will hold a public hearing to consider
an Interim Urgency Ordinance establishing a
moratorium on all new massage establishments, as well as all new businesses that provides massage therapy as an ancillary service
to the primary use within the City of Claremont. The hearing will be held on Tuesday,
January 13, 2015, at 7:00 p.m., in the City
Council Chamber, 225 W. Second Street, at
which time all interested persons are invited
to appear and be heard.
The Citys current zoning regulations associated with massage establishments was previously amended to be in compliance with SB
731, which is now outdated with the recent
adoption of AB 1147. As a result, there is an
immediate need to amend the Citys zoning
code to reestablish regulations which are compatible with the intent of various commercial
districts within the City. The adoption of an
urgency ordinance would temporarily prohibit
the issuance of all applicable entitlements and
permits for new massage establishments while
staff works on code amendments regarding
this specific use.
NOTICE IS FURTHER GIVEN, that the Director of Community Development has determined that this matter is not subject to
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)

will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a
project as defined in Section 15378) of the
CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no
potential for resulting in physical change to the
environment, directly or indirectly. Therefore,
no further environmental review is necessary.
If you would also like to be notified electronically about this matter in the future, please
provide your email address to Associate Planner Luke Seibert at lseibert@ci.claremont.ca.us, or by contacting me directly at

It has been another fantastic year for Claremont real estate! 2014 was a bit unique
in that the market was strong and home sales were up month after month, with very
few seasonal dips and peaks. Resale inventory (homes sold by homeowners) was
relatively low this year. Resale home sales accounted for 349 of total sales, while the
rest were the result of the new home sales spread out among the various new home
communities that Claremont gained this year. Overall market prices rose 8 percent
on average over 2013, which is a rather large gain, compared to the 3-5 percent
value gain attributed to a more normal market trend. This year, I decided to include
a new statistic, which is the number of home sales that were underwater short
sales. Amazingly, out of 363 homes sold, only 10 were short sales, which made up
only 2.7 percent of our total sales! Interest rates remained low this year, and fluttered
between 4 and 4.5 percent, while usually hugging closer to 4.25 percent. I am hopeful that interest rates will remain low in 2015, as that should continue to spur growth
in the real estate market.

I can't say enough about Mason's easy-going professionalism. I have

worked with many real estate agentsbuying and selling a homesome
good and some not so good, but Mason stands above the rest. Although a
busy agent, he made us feel like we were his only clients. It is obvious that
Mason takes pride in his work and helped us through what has usually
been a very stressful process. We were always informed, updated and met
personally when needed. There was never pressure, unnecessary stress or
unanswered questions. I will recommend everyone I know to Mason!
