Officials grapple with the future for Seton

Service obligations and sky-high health care
costs weigh heavily for county supervisors
By Anna Schuessler
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
In the wake of troubling financial
news from the operator of Seton
Medical Center in Daly City and Seton
Coastside Medical Center in Moss
Beach, county officials are grappling
with the role the two major health care
facilities play for county residents and
whether purchasing their multi-mil-
lion dollar operations is a viable
option.

Opponents of a white nationalist-led rally marking the one-year anniversary of the 2017
Charlottesville ‘Unite the Right’ protests.
Marches mark anniversary
of deadly far-right protest
By Michael Kunzelman
and Sarah Rankin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. — A year after a
deadly gathering of far-right extremists in
Charlottesville, a few dozen white national-
ists marched Sunday across from the White
House, their numbers dwarfed by thousands
of counterprotesters, while the mother of a
woman killed at last summer’s protest said
the country continues to face unhealed racial
wounds.
The events, largely peaceful though tense
at times in Charlottesville and Washington,
were part of a day of speeches, vigils and
marches marking the anniversary of one of
the largest gatherings of white nationalists
and other far-right extremists in a decade.
In Washington, dozens of police in bright
yellow vests formed a tight cordon around
the small group of white nationalists, sepa-
rating them from shouting counterprotest-
ers within view of the White House.
President Donald Trump wasn’t at home —
he has been at his golf club in New Jersey
for more than a week on a working vacation.
Jason Kessler, the principal organizer of
last year’s “Unite the Right” event, led the
Sunday gathering he called a white civil
rights rally in Lafayette Square. Kessler said
in a permit application that he expected 100

to 400 people to participate, but the actual
number was far lower: only around 30.
Counterprotesters, who assembled before
the rally’s scheduled start, vastly outnum-
bered Kessler’s crowd. Thousands showed up
to jeer and shout insults at the white nation-
alists.
Makia Green, who represents the
Washington branch of Black Lives Matter,
told Sunday’s crowd: “We know from experi-
ence that ignoring white nationalism does-
n’t work.”
By about 5 p.m., those in Kessler’s group
packed into white vans and left, escorted by
police.
Earlier this month, Facebook stunned and
angered counterprotest organizers when it
disabled their Washington event’s page,
saying it and others had been created by
“bad actors” misusing the social media plat-
form. The company said at the time that the
page may be linked to an account created by
Russia’s Internet Research Agency — a troll
farm that has sown discord in the U.S. — but
counterprotesters said it was an authentic
event they worked hard to organize.
Earlier in the day in Charlottesville, the
mother of Heather Heyer, a 32-year-old para-
legal who was killed when a car plowed into
a crowd of counterprotesters during last
year’s rally, said there’s still much healing
to be done.
One year later, Trump
still fuels racial divide
By Julie Pace,
Steve Peopes and Zeke Miller
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — There has been no reset,
no moment of national healing.
One year after blaming “both sides” for vio-
lent clashes between white supremacists and
counterprotesters, President Donald Trump
still flirts with racially tinged rhetoric — and
feels little blowback from Republican leaders
or GOP voters when he does. Black leaders
and Democrats argue Trump’s tone and actions
on race have gotten even worse in the months
since the clashes in Charlottesville, Virginia.
The result is a starkly segregated political
landscape where there is scant punishment for
racially loaded rhetoric and, at times, clear
reward.
Democrats are pinning their hopes of flip-
ping control of Congress on mobilizing lib-
erals and minorities, particularly black vot-
ers. And Republicans’ best chance of holding
off a Democratic wave is strong turnout
among the conservative white voters who
helped sweep Trump into office and often
cheer his willingness to dive into hot-button
issues with racial overtones.
Trump has told associates that he believes
at least one of those issues — his criticism of

Trump’s rise to power can be traced through
a series of statements that invoke racial
stereotypes. In 1989, he called for the death
penalty for the Central Park Five, five black
and Hispanic teenagers accused of raping and
beating a white woman; they were later exon-
erated through DNA evidence, but Trump has
suggested he still believes they’re guilty. For
years, Trump promoted the lie that President
Barack Obama was born in Kenya. Over the
past year, from his perch in the White House,
he’s repeatedly questioned the intelligence of
prominent black figures, including Rep.

LeBron James and CNN anchor Don Lemon,

South City adopts commercial linkage fees
Officials establish additional builder payments to address affordability concerns
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Building in South San Francisco will
come with a slightly higher price tag under
a decision to combat the local affordability
crisis with a new fee paid by those propos-
ing commercial developments.
The South San Francisco City Council
unanimously approved introducing com-
mercial linkage fees to be paid by develop-
ers proposing to build retail or commercial
space and hotels, according to video of the
meeting Wednesday, Aug. 8.
Officials expect the fees over the next
couple years could generate between $5 mil-
lion to $15 million, which will flow into a
fund designed to facilitate construction of
more affordable housing opportunities.
Councilman Pradeep Gupta said he appre-
ciated the fees as another tool for officials
seeking to offset the skyrocketing cost of
living plaguing so many in South City.
“It won’t in my mind solve the problem,
but it is a step in the right direction,” he
said.
Under the decision, builders will be
required to pay $5 per square foot of new
hotel space; $2.50 for restaurant or retail
square footage and $15 for the same amount
of office, medical or research and develop-
ment space. Exemptions will be available
for public services such as schools, church-
es or other nonprofits deemed suitable by
officials. Discounts or waivers may also be
available to builders willing to make sepa-
rate financial contributions, pay prevailing
wage or offer other conciliations.
The issue of exemptions did raise the eye-

brows of some councilmembers, who cri-
tiqued a proposal to waive the fee for those
seeking to build new retail space down-
town.
Vice Mayor Karyl Matsumoto said she
believed the downtown exemption was
unfair to those elsewhere in the city, and
councilman Mark Addiego shared a similar
perspective.
Alex Greenwood, Economic and
Community Development director, said
officials sought the downtown waiver as a
means of fostering further growth in the
central shopping district which is amidst a
revitalization period.
He characterized the rebirth of downtown
as a fantastic success, but also noted the
region is only a few years beyond the time
when it was a much less attractive destina-
tion.
While Greenwood suggested the down-
town exemption would be aligned with
other efforts designed to catalyze business
growth, councilmembers ultimately agreed
the relief should be granted on a case-by-
case basis.
Concerns over hampering business were
also cited by city officials when justifying
the rate levels proposed, claiming the right
balance must be struck in identifying a fee
which will raise adequate revenue while not

(Near El Camino)
San Mateo
— Councilman Pradeep Gupta
dissuading development interest.
Nell Selander, Economic and Community
Development deputy director, said the rates
are competitive with other nearby cities.
For context, developers in Redwood City
are required to pay $5 per square foot of
hotel, retail and restaurant space and $20 for
the same amount of office or research and
development space. In Foster City, it is
$12.50 for hotel square footage, $6.25 for a
square foot of retail and restaurant space and
$27.50 for office or research and develop-
ment space. Menlo Park charges no addi-
tional fee for hotel, restaurant or retail
space and $16.90 per square foot of office or
research and development space.
Despite the effort to identify the correct
fee amount, Addiego said he believes the
rates could have been pushed higher, espe-
cially considering the city’s reputation as a
global hub of the booming biotechnology
industry.
“I’m a little disappointed in the number,”
he said. “I don’t think we think highly
enough of ourselves.”
Officials noted though the rates can be
adjusted in future years following their
establishment.
Revenue generated could be allocated
toward helping build affordable housing,
or preserve existing units, with assis-
tance from the city’s affordable housing
fund. It can also be used to acquire land
where affordable projects might be built

source of loan financing.
With an understanding the fees will not be
a silver bullet for fixing the city’s afford-
ability problems, Gupta said he believed
the initiative is worth adopting.
“I fully support linkage fees and I think
this is a good starting point,” he said.
In other business, officials discussed the
amended flood plain maps to be implement-
ed by the Federal Emergency Management
Agency. Under the FEMA proposal, 187
new commercial and residential parcels on
the east side of Highway 101 would be man-
dated to hold flood insurance, while another
854 parcels currently in the plain would be
removed.
The boundaries are determined by revi-
sions from the federal agency initiated in
2012 according to coastal hazard analyses.
City officials fought the proposal, but were
overruled, and the new maps are expected to
be implemented next year.
Councilmembers said they will defend
residents’ best interest throughout the
process, which is expected to take the next
step forward when federal officials host a
discussion of the issue later this year.
Also at the meeting, City Manager Mike
Futrell said Genentech offered a $1 million
incentive if the construction firm rebuild-
ing the bridge along South Airport
Boulevard at North Access Road just north
of Interstate 380 finishes early.
The bridge closed in May for emergency
repairs and was projected to be completed in
November. Officials suggested work is
ahead of schedule and may be done sooner
than initially expected.
Futrell said city officials tried to make a
similar bonus available when the project
started, but the offer was rejected by
Caltrans, leading to the local biotech titan

Against all odds: Democrats
put money into longshot races

HOUSTON — Thara Narasimhan, who
hosts an Hindu radio program in Houston,
has already given $1,200 to a Democrat run-

Olson, who once drove around his solidly
conservative Texas district with a “NEVER
HILLARY” bumper sticker on his pickup.

“It’s not the question of why I have to sup-

night. “Unless you put some faith in it,
you’re not going to make it work.”

features a seasonal array of colorful irises and California
poppies. In addition, the view from the hill is spectacular,
well worth a hike, which is tough in spots, to the point
that it can feel like playing slip-and-slide along the trek
to the trailhead for the Letters Trail that runs along the
base of the letters.
One of the five trails is named for Alphonse Seubert, an
original member of the South San Francisco Beautification
Committee. Seubert was known as “Mr. Sign Hill” because
of his work on the landmark, which included helping to
develop the trails. Seubert, who died in 2006, was a regu-
lar on the hill, often spotted watering seedlings he had
planted.
The 45 acres the city owns in the Sign Hill area were
recently increased by 21 acres, thanks to a donation of
land by the Ross and Colleen Liberty family and the hard
work of such activists groups as Friends of Sign Hill and
San Bruno Mountain Watch. Plans call for naming the
newly-acquired open space “Friends of Liberty Park.” A
suggestion for future plans: How about a few benches, so
weary hikers can rest while enjoying the breath-taking
views?

county residents. Pine noted the
health care provider’s exploration of
its finances in the coming weeks is
further complicated by service obliga-
tions set by then-attorney general
Kamala Harris in 2015 when the hedge
fund struck a deal to purchase six hos-
pitals — which also include O’Connor
Hospital in San Jose and St. Louise
Regional Hospital in Gilroy, as well
as St. Francis Medical Center in
Lynwood and St. Vincent Medical
Center in Los Angeles.
Aimed at ensuring the safety-net
hospitals continue offering services
for at least 10 years, the transaction
was considered by some to be the
largest and most complex nonprofit
hospital transaction in California’s
history.
“It’s a very dynamic and unpre-
dictable situation, ” said Pine. “So
how this all unwinds or how this all
transpires is anybody’s guess.”
But Pine said that what is clear is the
critical nature of the services provided
at both the facilities, especially the
skilled nursing and long-term care.
In addition to an emergency room
serving some 27,000 patients a year,
the Daly City facility offers more than
350 licensed beds as well as cardiovas-
cular services, oncology and outpa-
tient care including clinical lab, diag-
nostic and imaging services. A skilled
nursing facility, the 116-bed coastside
hospital also offers the only standby
emergency department along the 55-
mile coastal stretch between Daly
City and Santa Cruz, according to
Verity Health.
Pine also expressed concerns about
the possibility of losing the ventila-
tors and specialized outpatient servic-
es provided at the facilities should
they be shuttered or sold, pegging
them among the services officials will
be monitoring as Verity Health evalu-
ates its options.
“I think the county would be willing
to look at any financially viable
approach to maintain those services,”
he said.
David Canepa, who represents north
county’s District 5 on the Board of
Supervisors, said he has been in talks
to prepare for all possible scenarios
with Supervisor Don Horsley and lead-
ers of the San Mateo County Health
System and the Health Plan of San
Mateo, an independent, quasi-govern-
ment agency which functions as a
health maintenance organization and
offers a comprehensive network of
health care providers.
The group has considered several
possible outcomes coming out of
Verity Health’s financial assessment,
Canepa said. That includes the opera-
tors’ closure of the facilities, he added.
He said he is focused on ensuring there
are no changes on the conditions put
in place by Harris in 2015, which
mandate the facilities continue to
operate until 2025.
County’s financial contribution
Canepa noted the county has already
dedicated some $40 million to the
facilities since they were acquired by
Verity Health. Included among the
county’s contributions is $15 million
dedicated to a $65 million seismic
upgrade project for Seton Medical
Center, one of the agreements laid out
when BlueMountain Capital struck a
deal with its former operator, the non-
profit Daughters of Charity, according
to a previous county staff report.
In weighing the county’s ability to
purchase the facilities or commit even
more funds to their operations,
Canepa couldn’t rule out the possibil-
ities. But he said it’s the owner’s
responsibility to live up to the condi-
tions it agreed to and noted any entity
contemplating purchasing the facili-
ties will have to consider those terms,
as well as the high cost of offering
health services.
“The county … has given them mil-
lions and millions of dollars and now
is the time for them to follow their
commitment that they made when
they acquired the hospital,” he said. “I
want to make sure that the operator
continues to operate in our city, but I
also have a fiduciary responsibility to
make sure that the county’s budget
isn’t decimated.”
Horsley, whose District 3 includes
the coast and Seton Coastside, was not
keen on the county stepping up its
financial obligations with regard to
the two facilities, emphasizing that
the owner knew what it was getting
into when it committed to the sale
terms.
Two counties, two situations
Horsley has heard officials in Santa
Clara County may have reasons to be
interested in purchasing the two Santa
Clara County facilities Verity Health
owns to make way for expanded coun-
ty-operated health care services. Santa
Clara County officials contemplating
THE DAILY JOURNAL
a purchase of the O’Connor Hospital
in San Jose and St. Louise Regional
Hospital in Gilroy may not be facing
the expensive retrofit project required
for the Seton Medical Center, Horsley
added.
Though he acknowledged Seton
Medical Center provides a valuable
service to the Daly City community
and officials are interested in seeing it
continue to operate, he was less sure
about committing much more than
what officials have already con-
tributed.
“We’re not going to buy it and we’re
not going to do a heavy subsidy,” he
said. “We believe that there’s a com-
mitment on their part to keep that
facility going with all lines of serv-
ice.”
Horsley said coastside residents in
need of a trauma center are generally
taken to emergency departments at
other hospitals — including Seton
Medical Center, San Mateo Medical
Center or Sequoia Hospital — before
they are taken to the standby emer-
gency room at Seton Coastside. He
added the county-operated Coastside
Clinic in Half Moon Bay, which the
county secured when it purchased the
property last year, also provides
health care for those on Medi-Cal or
with no insurance.
Wait and see
For Supervisor Carole Groom, prox-
imity to residents for whom the San
Mateo Medical Center is a burden to
reach weighed heavily. As did the
coastside facility’s provision of
dozens of long-term care beds, which
she said have been in increasing
demand as the county’s population
ages.
Groom was joined by Supervisor
Warren Slocum in noting the critical
nature of the services for their commu-
nities and a desire for them to contin-
ue operating. But they also acknowl-
edged they would have to wait until
more is known about Verity’s Health’s
position before taking a firm posi-
tion. If supervisors are faced with
weighing a purchase of the facilities,
Groom said a trend toward fewer opera-
tors in the health care market, as well
as how the services county residents
currently access at each one could be
found at nearby hospitals, would be
top of mind.
“I think we have a lot of work cut out
for us,” she said. “We’d have to really
look at those numbers and do a lot of
number crunching and see how that
looked.”

Ending the war in Afghanistan
Orange County Register
T
he Trump administration has
reportedly instructed its top diplo-
mats to engage in direct talks with
the Taliban. That’s a welcome and impor-
tant step toward ending the wasteful war in
Afghanistan.
A preliminary discussion was held last
month in Qatar, the Washington Post
reported, after The New York Times broke
the initial story. “We agreed to meet again
soon and resolve the Afghan conflict
through dialogue,” a Taliban official said.
While it is too soon to say what might
come of such talks, engaging with the
Taliban is a critical development in wind-
ing down the conflict.
After all, according to a BBC study pub-
lished earlier this year, the Taliban remains
active in 70 percent of the country even
after 17 years of conflict.
At the very least, the effort should be
made to seek a peaceful resolution to the
war in Afghanistan.

Helping minority entrepreneurs
Editor,
I am a senior at Lynbrook High School
in San Jose. After reading Anna
Schuessler’s March 12 story “Bridging
the opportunity gap for minority entre-
preneurs,” I was inspired. As someone
who may wish to one day lead a startup, it
was uplifting to read about the newly
launched San Mateo Hispanic Chamber of
Commerce’s efforts to recognize minority
entrepreneurs.
In particular, learning about Laura Perez
Ehrheart, a strong female leader in the
consulting industry, was empowering
because I often hear how women are
underrepresented in companies. I was fas-
cinated by how Ms. Ehrheart is helping
lead the effort to introduce the Hispanic
Chamber of Commerce. In today’s com-
petitive market, startups are doing all
that they can to survive, and resources
like the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce
are vital to helping minority entrepre-
neurs as they start up their businesses.

The sudden death of XXXTentacion
Editor,
The sudden death of XXXTentacion
sparked a range of reactions to the con-
troversial rapper’s death. While some
fans paid homage to the “YOUNG KING,”
an outpouring of outrage flooded social
media. Many people condemned
XXXTentacion’s behavior, but argued for
forgiveness on the grounds that people
can repent and change.

prospects for a diplomatic resolution, or
any resolution, for that matter — has
proven to be a deadly, costly and futile
effort.
For 17 years, the United States has been
bogged down in Afghanistan with little to
show for it.
Even the notion that the U.S. must
remain there to prevent Afghanistan from
becoming a “safe haven” for terrorists falls
apart when one realizes Afghanistan is still
a safe haven for groups that want to do
Americans harm.
“The Afghanistan war is almost old
enough to vote, and we have more groups
that want to launch attacks against the U.S.
operating there than we did when we start-
ed,” Caitlin Forrest from the Institute for
the Study of War told The New York Times.
ISIS, for example, did not exist when the
U.S. launched its quixotic “war on terror,”
yet it now operates in countries around the
As a fan of rap, I have watched as

exhibited major personality flaws, some
even committing horrific crimes. Public
discourse surrounding XXXTentacion’s
death prompted me to examine how we
determine whom and when to forgive.
Mahatma Gandhi left a powerful legacy of
peaceful activism, yet his aberrant sexual
behavior is largely disregarded by the
general public. Bill Cosby’s television
appearances trampled racial barriers, yet
recent sexual assault allegations have led
many to believe that his legacy has been
tarnished forever. At what point does a
person’s positive impact outweigh their
wrongdoings, and vice versa? To me, who
we choose to forgive reveals a lot about
our individual values and outlook on the
world.
On the day of XXXTentacion’s death,
Spotify — a platform that had once
banned his music due to “hateful conduct”
— sponsored and promoted a “This is
XXXTentacion” playlist. I would like to
consider this shift in tone as an act of for-
giveness, one made easier by the rapper’s
tragic death, which has put an abrupt end
to his explosive music career.

American blood and treasure has been
expended in pursuit of a conflict that has
long since lost any discernible set of
goals. And, victory in Afghanistan has
been elusive in large part because what vic-
tory would actually entail hasn’t properly
been defined.
President Trump, to his credit, has repeat-
edly expressed criticism of America’s wars
in the Middle East and Afghanistan. In
April, Sen. Rand Paul, R-Kentucky, told the
Washington Post that the president was
inclined to end the war in Afghanistan.
“The president told me over and over
again in general we’re getting the hell out
of there,” Paul said. “I think the president’s
instincts and inclination are to resolve the
Afghan conflict.”
Perhaps the talks are a sign of things to
come.
If President Trump can preside over the
end of the war in Afghanistan, it will be a
commendable achievement which will save
American lives and taxpayer money.
The sooner the war ends, the better.
ignore our own responsibility in the use
of fossil fuels and place the blame for
global warming on those who supplied
what we demanded?” Certainly, we all are
responsible for greenhouse gas emis-
sions, but we are all responsible to differ-
ent degrees.
Fortunately, we can allot responsibility
fairly by levying a fee on emissions.
Buyers and sellers responsible for emis-
sions would pay the costs of climate
change precisely to the extent they are
responsible.
This fair accountability is a core com-
ponent of Citizens’ Climate Lobby’s
(CCL) Carbon Fee and Dividend proposal
which sets a progressively rising fee on
fossil fuel emissions. The revenue from
the fee would be distributed to all house-
holds equally to protect consumers from
increasing prices.
An economic study of CCL’s proposal
conservatively showed that 58 percent of
households would financially benefit,
especially low-income Americans who as
a group pollute less. Additionally, 19 per-
cent of households would break even.
CCL’s proposal would create jobs, spur
economic growth and reduce emissions by
33 percent in 10 years and by 52 percent
in 20 years.
Everyone in Judge Alsup’s court agreed
that climate change is a grave problem
and human activity is mainly responsi-
ble. Congress must address it with effec-
tive legislation like CCL’s Carbon Fee
and Dividend proposal.

At the DMV
I
spent an afternoon at the DMV last
week helping an elderly friend who was
turning in her license and needed anoth-
er ID because she was no longer allowed to
drive. She had made an appointment well in
advance for 1:20 that Wednesday afternoon.
We knew to arrive a little bit early but lost
some time because of the detours on
Amphlett Boulevard.
We arrived at the DMV office a little after 1
p.m. I told my friend to wait while I found
where we should go. I guessed (incorrectly)
since we weren’t there to renew a license,
there must be some special line. It took a
long time to find anyone to answer a ques-
tion and I was pointed to a long line which
said FOR APPOINTMENTS ONLY. I found a
seat for my friend and we waited and waited.
Finally,
we were
called to the
desk and told
to go to
counter 13 (I
felt right
away this
was a bad
omen). I told
my friend to
stay seated
and I waited a
bit for the
DMV rep at
counter 13.
She said I
had to fill out
a form on
one of their computers and then come back
to her. It was a challenge. I put in the wrong
answer and ended up in an endless loop.
When the DMV person was finally able to
help, I had to run back to my friend to get
her Social Security number and her license
number. After about 30 minutes, the task was
complete and I was given a sheet of paper
that said check in time 1:54 p.m. and was
assigned number F076, a number I will never
forget.
By this time my elderly friend was in a
dither. What was happening? Why was it
taking so long? So we sat and were trans-
fixed by the numbers. There is a screen with
many numbers which I thought was a clue to
our placement. There were Bs being called
and occasional Fs. After about an hour of
this, I hunted up the clerk at counter 13 and
asked what was happening. She said there
were 13 people ahead of us. Luckily, my
friend had brought reading material. I had
not. Even looking at my mobile phone and
checking mail made me dizzy. I was in a
dreamlike world waiting and waiting for a
magic number to be called. Eventually F075
was called and I had a sudden hope we might
be, if not next, maybe the next after that, or
the next after. All good things must come to
an end. Our number was called. My friend got
a temporary ID and had her photo taken. She
looked pretty sad by then. And we were off.
***
Advice to the DMV and those doing busi-
ness there. Please provide detailed instruc-
tions when you make an appointment
online. It would have saved so much time
and angst if we went to the right place in the
first place. Also it would have been much
easier and quicker and have taken up less
staff time if we could have completed the
necessary form online.
***
Thank goodness I had my license renewed
last year. But even that was a challenge. I
couldn’t get an appointment in time before
my license expired (one needs to make that
appointment months in advance) so on
advice from those in the know I got in line
at 7 a.m. for those without appointments.
And when the doors finally opened the line
moved slowly but surely. It was actually a
much smoother process than the one last
week.
The DMV has been under attack for the
long lines resulting from the need for special
driver’s license IDs to use at airports by
2020. They are adding more staff and said
they were putting in kiosks to help shorten
the wait. Again, specific instructions before
arriving at DMV would be helpful to all con-
cerned.

Rent control fueling costliest
fight on California 2018 ballot
By Sophia Bollag
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO — A Los Angeles-based
health care nonprofit known for funding
controversial ballot measures is waging an
expensive battle with the real estate indus-
try over rent control in California.
The AIDS Healthcare Foundation has
poured more than $12 million into a
November initiative it’s spearheading to let
cities and counties regulate rental fees in
buildings that state law currently shields
from such control.
A $10 million contribution the founda-
tion reported Wednesday made the initiative
the most expensive on the 2018 ballot so
far.
Started in 1987 to provide hospice care to
AIDS patients, the AIDS Healthcare
Foundation has grown into a global health
care organization similar in size to Planned
Parenthood. The group also has waded into
politics, bankrolling measures ranging
from prescription drug pricing to housing
policy, as well as lobbying at the state and
federal level.
Supporters say the rent control measure
will protect low-income people from being
priced out of their homes, while opponents
argue it will decrease housing supply in a
state facing a severe shortage.
Opponents have raised $22 million,
mostly from rental companies and the
California Association of Realtors.
The measure would repeal the Costa
Hawkins Rental Housing Act, a law that
banned rent control on single-family
homes and all housing built after Feb. 1,
1995. Costa-Hawkins also prohibits cities

the foundation can spend money on politi-
cal causes related to their mission.
The housing shortage in the nation’s
most populous state directly affects peo-
ple’s health, said Michael Weinstein, the
foundation’s president. A lack of shelter can
make people sick and prevent them from
accessing care.
“We’re in an emergency crisis situation,”
Weinstein said. “We have to do something
to stop the displacement.”
The rent control campaign is part of a
larger move by the nonprofit health care
provider into housing issues.
Last year, it spearheaded an unsuccessful
Los Angeles ballot measure to restrict large
developments. Weinstein said the goal was
to kneecap efforts to build only luxury
high-rises.
Opponents said the measure would have
decreased LA’s housing supply. They also
point to the foundation’s attempts to block
a high-rise development that will overshad-
ow the organization’s downtown headquar-
ters, suggesting a personal motivation.
Weinstein said the organization’s effort
was prompted in part by development in the
foundation’s Hollywood neighborhood
where they could see gentrification first-
hand. But he said he has nothing to gain
personally from the housing policies the
foundation supports.
The foundation was also a driving force
behind Proposition 61, the most expensive
initiative on the California 2016 ballot. It
spent $19 million on the unsuccessful bid
to lower prescription drug prices, which
drew fierce opposition from pharmaceutical
companies and others. The foundation also
mounted a similar unsuccessful initiative in
Ohio in 2017.

Learn new offense?
Titans’ Gabbert on
eighth in eight years
By Teresa M. Walker
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NASHVILLE, Tenn. —
Quarterback Blaine Gabbert quick-
ly stopped the reporter asking him
about learning his fourth offense
in four years.
“Eighth in eight years,” he said.
The Tennessee Titans, who
signed Gabbert in March to back up
Marcus Mariota, are the fourth team
that the quarterback has played for
since being drafted by Jacksonville
in 2011. But coach Mike Vrabel is
his ninth different head coach and
has the eighth different scheme that
Gabbert has had to learn since he
entered the NFL out of Missouri.
“There’s going to be bumps in
the road,” Gabbert said. “We’re
installing new plays every night,
but at the same time it’s about mas-
tering all the little things. Not get-
ting ahead of yourself and kind of
run the system.”
It’s a bit of a coincidence that
Gabbert finds himself back in the
AFC South where his professional
career began. The Jaguars drafted
him at No. 10 overall in 2011, two
picks after Tennessee selected quar-
terback Jake Locker out of
Washington. Locker retired from
football when his rookie contract
expired in March 2015, and Gabbert
already was in San Francisco with
his second team, preparing to work
with his fifth different head coach.
“Football careers go many differ-
ent ways,” Gabbert said. “That was
eight years ago.”

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — The

and defensive end Dante Fowler on
Sunday for violating team rules
and conduct unbecoming a Jaguars
football player.
Neither one will make the trip to
Minnesota on Tuesday for two days

In that span, Gabbert has played
for Jack Del Rio, Mel Tucker, Mike
Mularkey and Gus Bradley in
Jacksonville before being traded to
San Francisco, where he played for
Jim Harbaugh, Jim Tomsula and
Chip Kelly. Then he went to Arizona
last season to play for Bruce Arians,
starting five games and going 2-3,
with one of those wins coming in
December against Tennessee.
As Gabbert churned through dif-
ferent head coaches, the Titans had
their own revolving door at quarter-
back: Locker, Matt Hasselbeck,
Rusty Smith, Ryan Fitzpatrick,
Charlie Whitehurst, Zach
Mettenberger, Alex Tanney and
Mariota — Tennessee’s second quar-
terback drafted in the first round in a
five-year span. Matt Cassel started
a game in each of the past two sea-
sons with Mariota out with injuries.
That led the Titans to release
Cassel in March, looking to
upgrade Mariota’s backup. They
went from Cassel, who was 35 last
season, to Gabbert, who turns 29 in
October. Gabbert said he was per-
suaded to join the Titans after sit-
ting down with Vrabel , general
manager Jon Robinson, offensive
coordinator Matt LaFleur and quar-
terbacks coach Pat O’Hara.
“They’re great guys, and that
was something I wanted to be a

The Titans get a quarterback who

Gabbert has had to be a quick learn-

48 games, throwing for 8,437 yards

than Cassel, having run 170 times
for 631 yards with three TDs.
Gabbert was 9 of 15 for 76 yards

Bay in the preseason opener .

been with a lot of teams, so I think

But both players know there’s
plenty of more work needed to
make the roster.
“You can’t get too high off one
play when you have a whole sea-
son ahead of you, ” James said
Sunday. “If that was the Super
Bowl then wow, I’m celebrating.
But that was just preseason.”
James has taken advantage of an
injury to Trent Taylor, who has
been limited following offseason
back surgery that kept him out of
the first exhibition game.
James got on the field early,
catching the first pass from
Garoppolo to convert an early
third-down out of the slot and then
catching the game-winning TD
from Nick Mullens.
James was prolific in college,
catching 212 passes for 2,959
yards and 20 touchdowns his first
two seasons at Middle Tennessee
State. But a broken collarbone
limited him to five games last year
and he wasn’t picked until 240th
overall.
With Marquise Goodwin and
Pierre Garcon solidified as starters,
James is competing with Taylor,
Kendrick Bourne, Aldrick Robinson
and Aaron Burbridge for a backup
spot on the 53-man roster.
James showed his versatility
with a 33-yard kick return in the
game against Dallas, but he was
best as a receiver, with Niners
quarterbacks having a 150.4 rat-
ing when targeting him, according
to Pro Football Focus.

that I think you guys can all see is
he’s fearless with the ball in his
hands, ” coach Kyle Shanahan
said. “He’s making good cuts and
getting himself after the catch.”
Taylor had barely played organ-
ized football before getting drafted
223rd overall by the Niners in
April. He played only one year in
high school and had just limited
experience at Temple because of
injuries.
That’s why it was so important
for Taylor to get as much time as
he did against the Cowboys. He
played 32 defensive snaps in all,
starting at defensive end in place
of the injured Arik Armstead and
playing through the fourth quarter.
He had a few misplays early but
delivered the sack that helped set
up the game-winning drive.
Taylor just hasn’t done much of
it. He went down with season-end-
ing knee injuries in 2015 and ‘16
and played just 15 games in all on
defense in college. He showed
promise as a senior last year with
40 tackles, including 10 for loss-
es, in 12 games for the Owls.
He matched up well against No.
6 overall draft pick Quenton
Nelson of Notre Dame and had 4
1/2 tackles for loss against unde-
feated Central Florida to get on the
draft radar.
He has been impressive in camp,
which carried over into his first
game action as a pro when
Shanahan wanted to get him snaps
with the starters to see how he’d
fare against tougher competition.
“His arrow is going up,” defen-
sive coordinator Robert Saleh said.
“He does everything right. He
plays violent, relentless. He
fought his tail off against the big
O-line with the 1s. As the game
wore on, the expectation was that
he’d become more dominant and he
did. ... He took a really good step.”

Rookie sensation continues to shine LowrieA’shits
By Michael Wagaman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — A year ago,
Dereck Rodriguez was down in
Double-A ball, a converted outfield-
er hoping to take a new path as a
pitcher.
A non-roster invite to spring
training, Rodriguez finally got the
call to the majors in late May.
Since then, he’s sparkled.
Rodriguez threw seven innings
of two-hit ball to continue his fine
rookie season and San Francisco
beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 4-3 on
Sunday.
“He finds a way,” Giants manager
Bruce Bochy said. “He’s just been
so consistent getting us deep in the
game. What a job he’s done since
he’s come up. It’s a great story.”
Rodriguez (6-1) faced three bat-
ters over the minimum, allowing
one run with four strikeouts and a
walk. Both hits off him came in the
second inning.
The 26-year-old righty has a 2.25
ERA, lowest among NL rookies.
“He stayed off the barrel,” Pirates
manager Clint Hurdle said. “I didn’t
think we got caught up in over-
swinging at all. We were trying to
square him up, trying to hit it hard
where he pitched it. We were unable
to do a whole lot of that.”
Rodriguez has been San
Francisco’s most consistent pitch-
er this season. He is tied for the
team lead in wins and has allowed
two runs or fewer in each of his last
eight starts.
“After every start I sit back and
look at what’s been happening the
last couple of months,” Rodriguez
said. “From where I was this time
last year to where I’m at this year,
it’s a big change.”

With five consecutive wins,

the year.
“You look at how consistent he’s
been, you look at the numbers,
without question he has to be in
that talk and consideration,”
Bochy said. “He’s doing all he can
do and more than we thought. We
knew he would be pretty good but

Now called AT&T Park, Bonds knows what
he meant to this place.
“I think the park thing is more to me than
the number thing, because I built this park.
That’s all,” Bonds said. “When I walk in
this ballpark, I know whose house it is.”
Surrounded by former teammates and man-
agers, Hall of Famers and his family, Bonds
had no words as he mentally prepared for his
number retirement ceremony.
“Shhhh,” the slugger said smiling, then a
few minutes later repeated three times, “I

Bonds became the 10th Giants player in
franchise history to have his number
runs.
“I knew it was coming at one point. No
one’s wearing it,” he said. “... What they did
is fantastic and how they did it was first
class.”
In July 2015, Bonds said he had a huge
“weight lifted” when federal prosecutors
dropped what was left of their criminal case
against him after a nearly decade-long
steroids prosecution. Bonds needs to be on
75 percent of Hall of Fame ballots to be
enshrined in Cooperstown. He was on 56.4
percent of Hall ballots this year, up from
53.8 percent last year. He had just 36.2 per-
cent in his initial appearance.
“Sure, it would mean a lot to anybody, for
all the years I’ve worked and what I’ve done,

said while remembering his late father,

Giants great Willie Mays, Bonds’ godfa-

of Fame.
“When people talk about, ‘Oh, who’s the
best ballplayer in the world?’ I don’t care,”
Mays said. “I played my 20 years, 22 years,
whatever it might be. Give somebody honor
that deserves to be in the Hall of Fame. The
Hall of Fame is a type of fraternity that,
when you get there, you’ll say, ‘Man, how

“Vote this guy in!” Mays added.

Baker managed Bonds from 1993-2002.
He recalled watching Bobby Bonds in

inating, you’re going to give up a few sin-
gles,” Fleischli said. “That’s the mentality
test.”
Fleischli said he wasn’t surprised he lost a
tick on his fastball, which he estimated sat
crisp though, and even used the extended
outing to showcase his curveball, a pitch he
did not throw in the previous game.
“Coming off the mound Friday, it wasn’t
the best outing I had, but it is confidence
inspiring to have all your teammates pick
you up when you come off the field,”
Fleischli said.
For King, this marked his second appear-
ance in the Area Code Games. Last season,
he played in the Underclass Area Code
Games, a separate tournament of incoming
high school junior held concurrently at the
MLB Youth Academy in Compton.
This year, King enjoyed a banner summer.
His summer travel team, Nor Cal 2019-
Pleasonton, wrapped up a Perfect Game
World Series title July 23 in Peoria, Arizona;
Fleischli’s team, Trosky National Team
17U, took third place in the tourney.
King was Nor Cal’s starting pitcher in the
it out of the first inning. In fact, he didn’t
record a single out. But Nor Cal rallied back
for a 12-4 win over USA Prime Elite 17U.
“I was basically out of gas,” King said. “I
didn’t come out throwing low 90s like I usu-
ally do. I was throwing balls and wasn’t
pitching very well. … [The team] just picked
me up right there.”
King bounced back in one pitching
appearance last week in Long Beach. In
Monday’s opener against the Area Code
White Sox, the right-hander worked two
innings, allowing out run on two hits while
striking out five.
In three games behind the plate, King
went 2 for 5 with a pair of doubles.
“Overall, I think I did just fine hitting
against those guys,” King said. “I mean, I
would have loved to go 5 for 5 with five HRs
… but those guys are hardcore.”
With the 2018 summer showcase circuit at
a close, many incoming senior athletes have
Last fall, King verbally committed to play
baseball at Washington State on a partial
athletic scholarship. A two-sport athlete
through his first three years at Woodside,
King said he will not play football this sea-
son to focus on getting ready for his senior
baseball season.
Fleischli has yet to commit, but said he is
in the process of weighing several offers. In
2018, SHP graduated two pitchers who are
moving on to Division I baseball programs
— Angelo Tonas to Georgetown, and
Dominic Cacchione to Arizona State.
“I’ve had offers throughout the summer,”
Fleischli said. “I’m not really in a position
to be pressured to find a school. For me, it
was more like, I have an opportunity to play
at the [Area Code Games] and play against
the best players. … So now I want to make
the best decision going forward from there.
… I’m in a pretty good spot now. I just want
to find a place where I want to play at.”

Ledecky will tackle all
four distances in Tokyo
By Stephen Wade
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TOKYO — They’ve added a new swimming
event to the 2020 Tokyo Olympics — the
1,500 meter freestyle — and Katie Ledecky
plans to be racing it.
This could pose a problem, even for the five-
time Olympic champion and 14-time world
champion.
She won the 200, 400, and 800 two years
ago in Rio de Janeiro. Now add to that the
1,500. So is Ledecky planning to perhaps
drop the 200, maybe her weakest race, and
focus on the longer distances?
She lost the 200 a few days ago in the Pan
Pacific Championships, her only blemish on a
strong showing this week in the Japanese cap-
ital.
“I don’t anticipate trying to drop any of
them,” she said Sunday after winning the
1,500 at the Pan Pacs on the final day of the
four-day meet.
The meet serves as a dress rehearsal for the
Olympics in two years and is the biggest meet
of the year for swimmers from the Pacific
region.
It was held at the Tatsumi swimming center,
which is only a five-minute walk from the new
Olympic aquatic center under construction. It
should be completed early in 2020.
Certainly Ledecky won’t drop the 1,500. Her
time of 15 minutes, 38.97 seconds, was the
10th fastest in history. She now owns nine of
the top 10 times in that event — and the world
record.
Call for firing of Maryland coach
BALTIMORE — The attorney for the fam-
ily of the University of Maryland offensive
lineman who died after a strenuous offsea-
son workout is calling for Terrapins foot-
ball coach DJ Durkin to be fired, citing the
abusive culture of the program and the
SPORTS
“It’s something that makes training really
challenging and exciting for me to compete in
the shorter races,” she said. “So I have no
plans of dropping anything. Plans could
change, but I think I still have a lot in me.”
As a trial for Tokyo, Ledecky is likely to
swim all four next year in the world champi-
onships in South Korea.
“I think I’m very experienced swimming
those events,” she said. “I think I know how to
manage my races and manage my energy.”
The United States was overpowering in the
pool at the Pan Pacs — especially on the final
day. The meet wraps up Tuesday with the out-
door distance events.
The Americans won 18 gold medals, ahead of
Australia with eight and Japan with six. The
Americans also led the overall medal table
with 43.
China, the Pacific’s other swim power,
largely skipped the meet to focus on the Asian
Games, which open in a few days in Jakarta,
Indonesia.
The meet was extra important for American
Ryan Murphy. He took the 200 backstroke in
1:53.57, edging Japanese Ryosuke Irie in
1:55.12 and American Austin Katz in 1:56.00.
Murphy also won the 100 backstroke earlier in
the meet.
Other American winners on Sunday included
Kathleen Baker in the 200 backstroke, Zane
Grothe in the 800 freestyle, Michael Andrew in
the 50 freestyle, and Micah Sumrall in the 200
breaststroke.
Cate Campbell of Australia completed her
double, winning the 50 freestyle in 23.81. She

holder in the 200 breaststroke, delighted local
fans with his win in that event. He clocked

is 2:06.67.
In the final relays, Australia took the
women’s 400 medley in 3:52.74, ahead of the

U.S. claims softball
world championship
By Jim Armstrong
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MAKUHARI, Japan — Kelsey Stewart
drove in the winning run in the bottom of
the tenth inning as the United States beat
Japan 7-6 in the final of the women’s world
softball championship on Sunday.
Stewart’s single down the third base line
scored the runner from
third as the defending
champions rallied with
three runs in the tenth off
Japan starter Yukiko
Ueno.
Aubree Monroe and
Michelle Moultrie also
drove in runs in the tenth.
Kelsey Stewart “They always find a
way to come back,” said
U.S. coach Ken Eriksen. “I tell them ‘don’t
get too wrapped up in what your swings
looks like, what your pitch is supposed to
do. Just play softball.”’
The tournament doubles as a qualifier for
the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. The U.S. secured
its spot in the Olympics earlier Sunday when
Japan beat Canada 3-0. Japan is automatical-
ly in the 2020 tournament as host.
Softball and baseball were dropped from
the Olympic program after the 2008 Beijing
Games but have been restored for 2020.
Sunday’s final was a re-match of the gold
medal game at the 2008 Olympics that
Japan won by a score of 3-1.
Ueno also went the distance in the win
over Canada, striking out seven while giv-
ing up four hits and no walks.
Monica Abbott, the fifth U.S. pitcher
used, picked up the win despite giving up
two runs on one hit over the final two
innings.
The countries that don’t qualify for the
six-team Olympic competition at the worlds
might have a second chance at continental
tournaments next year.

‘The Meg’ is the studio’s best opening this year.
‘The Meg’ chomps $44.5 million,
‘BlacKkKlansman’ opens strong
By Jake Coyle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Adding to Hollywood’s
sizzling summer, the shark thriller “The
Meg” opened well above expectations with
an estimated $44.5 million in ticket sales,
while Spike Lee had his best debut in a
decade.
“The Meg” had been forecast by some ana-
lysts for closer to half that total. An
American-Chinese co-production between
Warner Bros. and China’s Gravity Pictures,
it also debuted well overseas, taking in
$50.3 million in China and totaling $96.8
million internationally, according to studio
estimates Sunday.
With an international cast led by Jason
Statham and featuring Li Bingbing, Rainn
Wilson and Winston Chao, “The Meg” cost
at least $130 million to make.
Following hits like “The Shallows” and
“47 Meters Down,” the shark movie — 43
years after Steven Spielberg’s “Jaws” — has
been showing surprising bite at the box
office. Jeff Goldstein, distribution chief for
Warner Bros., said late summer was ideal
timing for “The Meg.”

totaling $168,584 plus a contingency of
$25,300.
The city regularly receives positive feed-
back about the dog park and its synthetic
turf but, partly due to the age of the turf and
lack of infill, dog walkers have complained
it sometimes smells strongly of urine. The
park also appears to be prone to puddles
after it rains.
Parks Manager Frank Fanara said that will
soon change.
“What’s currently there is older technolo-

“This was a fun, dumb popcorn movie that
just looked interesting to the public every-
where around the world,” Goldstein said.
“We dug our heels in and said: This is the
right time to go. The last movie, as kids are
going back to school, all the big block-

what we’re putting in now is a more specifi-

shorter pile height and the infill installed
helps with odor.”
The new turf is called TigerTurf and Fanara
said it’s “not too much more expensive”
than what’s currently there. According to
the report, it’s heat and frost resistant and
will drain up to 30 inches of rain per square
yard per hour “if the base material allows.”
“Drainage throughout the whole park
should be improved significantly,” Fanara
said.
For infill, a product called envirofill will
be installed. It’s a naturally occurring sand

and mildew, and as a result, odors, according

which on Wednesday will release the highly
touted “Crazy Rich Asians,” “The Meg” is
the studio’s best opening this year, besting
even Spielberg’s own “Ready Player One.”
After two weeks at no. 1, “Mission:
Impossible — Fallout” slid to second place
in its third weekend with $20 million. The
Paramount Pictures release starring Tom
Cruise has pulled in $162 million in three
weeks.
Lee’s critically acclaimed
“BlacKkKlansman” also opened strongly
with $10.8 million in 1,512 theaters. The
Focus Features release, which took the
Grand Prix at the Cannes Film Festival in
May, was timed to the anniversary of the
violent clashes between white nationalists
and anti-racism counter protesters in
Charlottesville, Virginia. Lee’s film, pro-
duced by Jordan Peele (“Get Out”), is a true-
life tale of African-American police detec-
tive Ron Stallworth (played by John David
Washington, son of Denzel), who in 1979
infiltrated a Colorado Springs, Colorado,
cell of the Ku Klux Klan.
This will be the second time the turf has
been changed since the park was construct-
ed, Fanara said. The new surface will last
about 10 years.
The project also entails an extra $27,450
in furnishings, including new benches and
tables, new fabric for the shade structure
plus a paint job. Fanara said the plan is to
“jazz up the colors” with a red and blue
theme, and decorative dog silhouettes will
adorn the fences. 
“It will still have the same layout, but
we’re trying to make what’s there better,” he
said. “It’ll be a brighter and more cheerful
place.”

Having a plan
A
ll experts say that Bay Area resi-
dents should have a stash of sup-
plies adequate to live completely
self-sufficiently (no stores, no power, no
nothing) for three days in the case of a
major earthquake. Useful, of course, also
in case of fire or
other disaster, this
advice must
include taking care
of our animals in
such an event.
Let’s think
through what that
would mean.
First, supplies
are not going to be
helpful if they’ve
spoiled during storage or are inaccessible
because of property damage. You’re in the
position to judge what works best for
you, of course, but typical solutions
include large, shallow covered plastic
boxes which slide under a bed and metal
garbage cans stored outside sealed with
weatherproof tape. Contents? Food is the
obvious, but to make sure it remains
fresh, think of rotating with what you
keep on hand (i.e., the bag you bring
home from the store goes into the storage
kit, the older bag from the kit goes into
the kitchen). Cans need a can opener, and
all food needs a bowl. One gallon of water
per day per person is the recommendation
for us, and while your pet likely will not
need as much any extras may prove useful
in terms of rinsing an animal exposed to
chemicals, flood waters, etc.
A spare of everything you use every day
should be included: litter, litterbox, col-
lar, leash (and carriers for cats and small
animals), garbage bags (a full box of
them is a good idea). Add medications
(stored within a moisture-proof container
inside the larger kit), medical records and
even a first aid for pets book plus the
bandages, etc., it will recommend, plus
the contact info for your veterinarian,
grooming supplies, paper towels and
something soft like an old towel for the
interim bed. Let’s all hope this falls into
the better safe than sorry category, but
planning for our family in the time of a
crisis is always time well spent.

Humane Society & SPCA.
no longer be necessary; Mayor Sam Hindi
said saving water was part of the goal of the
project.
Other surface options, including natural
grass and decomposed granite, were rejected
by the council and residents alike because
they require too much maintenance, among
other reasons.
“We have a first-class dog park and we’d
like to keep it that way,” said resident Norm
Kirby. “We’re all pleased that the dog park
will be repaired and upgraded and we’re all in
agreement that the artificial turf is a great
product — the dogs love it, it’s easy to
clean up, it’s sanitary and odor free.”
Fanara said the dog park will be closed for
about three weeks while the improvements
are installed, which he hopes will occur
mid-September.

Continued from page 1
utilities to act responsibly and pro-
tect ratepayers from bearing the cost
when they are negligent.
It also takes aim at Pacific Gas and
Electric, which Hill said has been
working with state legislators since
January to shape proposed legisla-
tion that could change the set of regu-
lations it faces and carve a path for
the utility to pass its costs onto
ratepayers.
As the state Legislature reconvenes
in Sacramento from a summer recess
this week, Hill is aware legislators
will be focused on those bills that
seek to address the role utilities will
play in assuming responsibility for
the destruction left in the wake of
these fires. Those bills include his —
which Hill is hoping will ensure the
commission can continue to require
utilities to provide reasonable service
at rates it deems to be reasonable as
dictated by the California
Constitution — and three other bills
he feels would let Pacific Gas &
Electric off the hook for the damages
it faces from the devastating wildfires
that ravaged Northern California in
recent years.
“I believe that the system works
today and works quite successfully for
everyone,” he said.
It’s not the first time Hill has taken
on PG&E in a quest to hold the utility
accountable. As the eighth anniver-
sary of a 2010 gas pipeline tragedy
that killed eight people in San Bruno
draws nearer, Hill said he’s reminded
of the beginning of his crusade,
which started with news of the Sept.
9, 2010, explosion of a PG&E natural
gas pipeline he initially thought was
an accident.
After a month or two of investiga-
tions, Hill said it became clear the
incident was not an accident, and was
caused by the utility’s negligent
actions, which included diverting
funds from safety measures and direct-
ing them instead toward line items
like executive compensation. Framed
on Hill’s desk in Sacramento are the
names of the eight who lost their
lives that day.
“That’s the reminder that if they go
unchecked, unmonitored and unregu-
lated, it’ll happen again most assured-
ly,” he said.
Though Hill does not believe it
should have taken the loss of eight
lives to incite the utility to turn
things around, he credited PG&E for
responding to pressure from legisla-
tors and the commission and doing
the right thing in creating a state-of-
the-art gas system after the San Bruno
explosion.
Electrical safety
Acknowledging the utility made
strides on its gas program, Hill argues
it failed to apply the same lessons to
its delivery of electricity, noting
dozens were killed in the North Bay
fires last year and that of the 16 fires
that have been investigated by Cal
Fire, 11 involved PG&E equipment
and may have been caused by the util-
ity’s negligence.
Hill said the utility’s practices with
regard to reclosers — devices that can
recharge a wire with a fault in it to see
if it can send power through and help
avoid, in some cases, a power outage
— have not demonstrated it has
learned its lesson with regard to its
electric utility. Because power sent to
a downed wire during dry and hot con-
ditions may start a fire, the utility
could reduce the risk of fire by shut-
ting off reclosers in wildfire condi-
tions.
Though PG&E shut off only 38
reclosers during the October fires,
Hill said the company improved its
practices during December fires by
shutting off some 4,000 devices, one
step in several the utility is now tak-
ing that Hill said have come too late.
“They will pay a price for that and
they should,” he said.
Comprehensive reform
PG&E spokeswoman Lynsey Paulo
said the utility is focused on working
toward comprehensive reforms that
can support victims who are piecing
their lives together, ratepayers and
continued investment in wildfire pre-
vention, infrastructure and clean ener-
gy. Though Paulo said the company
has not taken a position on Hill’s
bill, she noted some of the state’s
existing liability laws leave cus-
tomers, communities and energy com-
panies facing uninsurable risks even
when they’ve followed compliance
laws and threaten critical future
investments in a safer and cleaner
energy infrastructure.
Among the existing laws Paulo
pegged as in need of reform is the
application of inverse condemnation
liability to events caused by a pri-
A
1 D
F >
6 >
0 6
which finds a utility may be liable for
property damages and related costs
associated with an event like a wild-
fire if its equipment is found to have
been a substantial cause of the fire’s
damage, even if the utility followed
established inspection and safety
rules.
The utility has maintained that
allowing unlimited liability under
inverse condemnation undermines the
financial health of the state’s utili-
ties, which negatively affects cus-
tomers and the state as a whole,
according to a Jan. 3 press release
issued after Hill’s bill was introduced.
“Climate change is really leaving
California increasingly vulnerable to
wildfire,” she said. “Yesterday’s laws
are not going to protect California
from tomorrow’s devastating fires.”
Other considerations
Hill also takes issue with use of the
inverse condemnation doctrine,
alleging it assumes utilities can
recover costs through the rates they
set, based on the idea that the utility’s
assets are public goods and should be
spread among ratepayers, who are
receiving their benefits. He agreed the
benefits ratepayers derive from a util-
ity’s assets should be considered, and
is suggesting through his bill the
Public Utilities Commission be given
broader authority to assign a portion
of a wildfire’s responsibility to a util-
ity as it sees fit instead of having to
weigh whether it is 100 percent
responsible for a given set of dam-
ages.
Acknowledging the poles support-
ing PG&E’s power lines are shared by
other utilities, such as telecommuni-
cations providers, Hill said the
approach could allow the commission
to include those factors in its deci-
sion-making process and assign a
percentage of the responsibility to
the utilities whose assets may have
been involved. He said insurance
companies and major utility users
such as manufacturers have also spo-
ken out against legislation that
allows utilities to pass costs to
ratepayers given the burdens they will
have to assume if they remain in
place.
Hill noted legislators have several
factors to weigh — including PG&E’s
profits, ability to pay for losses and
the standard they want to set in the
face of future disasters — in their final
weeks in Sacramento before the leg-
islative session ends. Having studied
different ways to regulate utilities for
the better part of eight years, Hill is
hoping his fellow legislators consid-
er the reality of what’s next if they go
unchecked.
“I’m hoping that … the facts will
speak to them as they have to me,” he
said.

tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of Adnan Abdel Tamimi. A

ta Tamimi be appointed as personal rep-
resentative to administer the estate of
the decedent.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ister the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: AUG. 27, 2018 at
9:00 a.m., Department 28, Superior
Court of California, County of San Mateo,
400 County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063.
If you object to the granting of the peti-
tion, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hear-
ing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent cred-
itor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representa-
tive, as defined in section 58(b) of the
Calilfornia Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal de-
livery to you of a notice under sectioin
9052 of the Callifornia Probate
Code.Other California statutes and legal
authority may affect your rights as a
creditor. You may want to consult with an
attorney knowledgable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-

ing heard unless you respond within 30
days. Read the information below.
You have 30 CALENDAR DAYS after
this summons and legal papers are
served on you to file a written response
at this court and have a copy served on
the plaintiff. A letter or phone call will not
protect you. Your written response must
be in proper legal form if you want the

court form that you can use for your re-
sponse. You can find these court forms
and more information at the California
Courts Online Self-Help Center
(www.courtinfo.ca.gov/selfhelp), your

fee, ask the court clerk for a fee waiver
form. If you do not file your response on
time, you may lose the case by default,
and your wages, money, and property
may be taken without further warning
from the court.
There are other legal requirements. You

South City as Councilman Mark Addiego
said the most recent project budget estima-
tion reached $210 million, up from the
roughly $150 million expected last year.
“It’s frightening what is happening in
the construction industry as we try to put
together architectural and construction
drawings and go into the marketplace for a
contractor, because things are moving so
rapidly,” he said.
The skyrocketing costs have been attrib-
uted to labor and material shortages invit-
ed by the state and region’s building boom,
and Addiego suggested the financial woes
could worsen due to trade tariffs imposed
by the White House.
“This is not the best time to try to be
going into the marketplace and trying to
spend $210 million,” said Addiego, who is
on the subcommittee charged with plan-

ning the center.
Price jumps have forced design revisions
of the campus intended to host a new
library, parks and recreation department as
well as police and fire stations proposed
on city property near El Camino Real and
Antoinette Lane.
Most notably, officials are examining
building surface parking rather than a
underground lot, as recent projections
show every 10 subterranean spaces cost
about $1 million, said Addiego.
The move away from underground park-
ing alarmed some residents who spoke at
the most recent City Council meeting and
encouraged officials to find space in the
budget for the underground lot.
The most passionate requests came from
members of the special needs community,
who said underground parking greatly
enhances accessibility to the public
amenities.
Other residents were more harsh in their
criticism, suggesting the designs deviated
from the vision promoted by officials
when campaigning for the sales tax
increase primarily financing the effort.
“This is not what we asked for and this is
not what we voted on,” said Jeanette Holt,
who was among the handful of residents
who sharply critiqued the project plans,
according to video of the City Council
meeting Wednesday, Aug. 8.
Betty Bettaglia shared similar frustra-
tions, suggesting the project is different
from the one she initially supported.
“I’m really not too excited by what I
see,” she said.
Both Bettaglia and Holt are advocates for
the Parks and Recreation Department, and
urged officials to assure equal considera-
tion is given to both their interests and the
new library to be built at the site.
Recent plan amendments tacked on an
additional 5,000 square feet to the library,
which Addiego said would be flexible space
available for use by both departments and
intended to build synergy between the two.
Addiego said officials accepted the revi-
sion, which is expected to cost about $5
million, after learning the new library
would be roughly the same size as the

existing facility.
He said the additional space is needed to
accommodate projected population
growth, with an expectation that a library
the same size as one built decades ago will
likely be inadequate over the coming
years.
Acknowledging the additional space fur-
ther bumps up the budget, and heightens
the sensitivities of residents in the
process, Addiego likened the challenges
before officials to a family trying to man-
age limited resources.
“It’s like when you are building a house
and your kid wants a pool and your wife
wants a top-of-the-line kitchen and grand-
ma wants her own suite with a private bath-
room,” he said. “There are not enough dol-
lars, so someone will be disappointed.”
To address these differences of opinion
on priorities under the budget restrictions,
Addiego said officials will soon host a
study session allowing community mem-
bers to learn more about the project.
“We have to reacquaint the public,” he
said.

New U.S. sanctions could pitch Russia relations to new low

By Susannah George
and Vladimir Isachenkov
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Russia typically brush-
es off new U.S. sanctions. Not this time.
The Trump administration announcement
of export restrictions in response to accusa-
tions Moscow used a nerve agent to poison
a former Russian spy in Britain sent the
ruble tumbling to a two-year low and drew a
stern warning from its prime minister.
While the initial sanctions may have a lim-
ited impact, a second batch expected within
months could hit the Russian economy
much harder and send already tense relations
into a tailspin.
If sanctions are expanded even further
to target Russia’s top state-controlled
banks, freezing their dollar transactions
— as proposed under legislation intro-
duced in the Senate this month — it
would amount to a “declaration of eco-
n o mi c war, ” Rus s i an Pri me Mi n i s t er
Dmitry Medvedev said Friday.
So much for President Donald Trump’s
hopes for better relations with Moscow.
On his watch, the U.S. has imposed a slew
of sanctions on Russia for human rights
abuses, meddling in the U.S. election and
Russian military aggression in Ukraine and
Syria. For the most part, they have pun-
ished Russian officials and associates of
President Vladimir Putin rather than target-
ing broad economic sectors.
In 2014, both the U.S. and European
Union introduced sanctions that restricted
Russia’s access to global financial markets
and to equipment for new energy projects.
Those measures were punishing, but the
sanctions announced by the Trump adminis-
tration this past week could be even worse.
The restrictions were triggered under U.S.
law on chemical weapons following a for-
mal U.S. determination that Russia used the
Novichok nerve agent to poison former
Russian spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter
in the English city of Salisbury in March.
