Developer breaks ground on new housing complex
COURIER photos/Steven Felschundneff Workers knock down the last of the native fieldstone walls during demolition of the Pitzer Ranch foremans house on Wednesday in Claremont. The residence was built in 1915 to house the foreman, who managed the citrus groves owned by the Pitzer family. The historical significance of the structure was noted and archived by the Library of Congress in a Historical American Building Survey conducted in 1987. Two additional stone buildings, the pump house and barn, were saved and included in the developers plans.
onstruction on the 3.31-acre Citrus Glen at Pitzer Ranch housing development broke ground at the southwest corner of Base Line Road and Monte Vista this week.
Originally approved in 2007, Citrus Glen at Pitzer Ranch, developed by Taylor Morrison, will include 50 townhome-style condominium units, 7 of which will be sold as moderate-income housing. Two historical stone buildings located on the sitethe pump house and the barnwill be preserved and incorporated into the housing complex. The pump house will be used for storage, while the barn will be restored and used as a rentable community space. Claremont Heritage was consulted during the project and lent their support to the developers plan. While 2 of the structures will remain intact, the original Pitzer Ranch foremans building was demolished Wednesday because a buyer for the historical structure was not found. The house was advertised for auction in the COURIER from March 22 through April 12, but no bids were received. As the developer seeks to get rid of one historic rock structure, they look to add a stone assemblage of another kind to the property. The project layout includes the building of a rock wall and mosaic on the very corner of Base Line and Monte Vista, according to James Sink, chair of the Claremont Architectural Commission, in a previous interview. Local artist Alba Cisneros, a colleague of Millard Sheets, will produce the mosaic.

Annies big day

Dear Editor: Like so many other proud Claremont families, today we celebrated the graduation of one of our family members. Our granddaughter, Anabelle Monroe, is a member of Claremont High Schools Class of 2013. We attended the culminating event and cheered as our Annie received her diploma. We were among thousands of people, families and friends, acknowledging the accomplishments of these now young adults. However, our Annie has achieved what we think is a unique feat! Since her first day of kindergarten at Sumner Elementary through todays event at Claremont High School, Annie has never been absent from school. She has had perfect attendance for all 13 years! Congratulations, Annie, for your perseverance. Hey, Claremont Unified School District, hows that for bringing in her ADA?

Drive like my neighbors

Dear Editor: Where can I get one of those NASCAR-approved Claremont drivers licenses like so many of my neighbors have? You know, the ones that allow you to drive at nearly twice the speed limit in residential neighborhoods, blast through stop signs without a care and make right turns on a red by merely slowing your vehicle? I am told when riding a bike with these little beauties, you are not held to any rules of the road. Stop signs can be run through, as well as red lights, as long as no one is approaching the intersection from the opposite direction. So, will these special drivers licenses also get you out of jail after hitting someone while driving under the influence of one of these little babies? I just cant wait to get one, so that I can drive like so many others do in our fair city.

Strawberry Patch likely to get townhome makeover
he undeveloped lot at Base Line Road and Towne Avenue, known to many as Claremonts Strawberry Patch, may be getting a makeover similar to other vacant stretches along the north Claremont Highway.
Planning commissioners Tuesday conducted a preliminary review of developer City Ventures plan to build up the empty 6-acre lot with townhomes. Similar townhome developments will fill vacancies along Base Line Road at both Padua and Mountain Avenues. The City Ventures development will feature 95 craftsman-style dwellings, outfitted with solar panels, sprawled across the property. Its a different concept than originally proposed to the commission last July. City Ventures opted to change their initial vision for the proposed development after receiving feedback on the original plans. Instead of a mixed-use and residential development to take up just the western portion of the lot, the developer is proposing to build a multi-family residential community on the entire open space. The developer steered away from commercial or mixed-use development because of constraints placed on the lotdue to the propertys small size and limited access to the adjacent streets. In order to go ahead with this new vision of a solely residential development, a zoning change will be required as the western portion of the space is currently designated for mixed-use development. While City Ventures hopes to change this designation, Barbara Kermode, a resident in the unincorporated portion of Claremont near the development site, hopes the developer will consider including commercial property in their plans. Ms. Kermode believes including some sort of a commercial service on the property, like a gas station, will relieve a burden on her and her neighbors as she says they are currently inundated with requests for services from people exiting the freeway. Our door [gets knocked on] day and night with people wanting water, tools, a phone, car jacks. We are not a service station, we are a resident just like everybody else is, Ms. Kermode said. We are being dumped on. While sympathetic to Ms. Kermodes plight, Janet Peddy, director of finance, planning and operations at The Webb Schools, is supportive of a solely residential development. A commercial use so close to our campus is a further encroachment on our way of life as a boarding school, Ms. Peddy said. We are already feeling that impact from Towne Avenue...We would like to see the community stay residential if development must happen.
COURIER photo/Collette Weinberger Claremonts Strawberry Patch is soon to be remade into a multi-family residential community, which will include 95 townhomes to fill the entire vacant lot. Due to the limited space and the propertys size, the developer, City Ventures, has steered away from a commercial or mixed-use development.
Resident Joseph OToole, supportive of keeping the space residential, suggested providing future townhome residents with a buffer from the traffic of Base Line and nearby 210 freeway. Being so close to a main highway and freeway could create opportunity for crime, Mr. OToole asserted. If I lived there, I would want a gate, he said. Still others questioned the legality of establishing the property because the county had rejected a previous residential project on the same plot because of freeway health concerns. Associate Planner Luke Seibert clarified that project was rejected because it was labeled as affordable housing. The county had withdrawn its funding of the project because of concerns over environmental justice, which argues against the purposeful placement of affordable housing complexes in less-desirable areas. City Ventures is not an affordable housing development, though 13 of the spaces will be reserved as moderateincome housing. Further concerns with the amount of parking spaces were dispelled by city officials, who said the developer more than meets the requirements in providing 2 parking spaces per household in addition to 40 visitor spaces. While the Strawberry Patch Claremonters have come to know and love may soon be a part of the pasta concern to several residents present on Tuesday nightthose beloved berries are not being totally uprooted. Though the owner of the patch may not be able to sell his berries from Towne and Base Line, he continues to sell at the Methodist Church in La Verne. And for
the past year and a half, he has taken to growing his strawberries just down the street at the residence of Councilmember Corey Calaycay. Commissioners appreciated residents concernCommissioner Martin McLeod shared his own memories of the Strawberry Patchbut, were pleased with City Ventures initial development plans, despite the sites constraints. This actually looks like an advantageous site, Commissioner KM Williamson noted. Nintey-five units is
a lot, but I think they are doing a very admirable effort in accommodating the parking. While the Planning Commission was tasked with giving the plan a preliminary lookover, City Ventures development is far from finished with commission and government review. It will return for another review by the Planning Commission in the fall, with final say to be given by the city council. Beth Hartnett

Survey results needed to tweak parking regulations
espite concerns over parking at the Claremont Hills Wilderness Park, the citys efforts to survey the problem have been received with limited interest, according to Claremont officials.
Of 220 surveys mailed out to residents living on streets near the bustling park, only 81 surveys37 percentwere returned, City Manager Tony Ramos shared. Since the opening of the parks expanded north parking lot, and enforcement of the lots now metered parking, many locals have vocalized concern that eager Wilderness Park hikers are finding loopholes to avoid paying. In recent months, several residents living near the
park, particularly those on Pomello and Mills, have shared with the Claremont City Council that Pomello Drive, just south of Mt. Baldy Road and the southernmost lot, has become an alternativeparking destination. In an effort to address fear over displaced parking problems, city officials first sought to survey those directly impactedthe residents of the neighborhoods adjacent to the parkwith the goal of issuing permit parking for some streets while outright restricting parking on others. Based on the feedback of the select surveys that were returned, it is clear there is a significant problem perceived on Pomello Drive and Mills Avenue, according to Mr. Ramos. When it comes to other nearby streets, however, the probWILDERNESS PARK SURVEY continues on page 9

City wants updated information on Gold Line plan
laremont officials are calling out the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) for lack of transparency as the MTA board prepares to approve changes to a multi-million dollar expenditure plan, which includes the expansion of the Gold Line light rail.
This Thursday, June 27, the board will consider amending the expenditure plan approved by voters in 2008 as part of the Measure R Traffic Relief and Rail Expansion. Measure R imposed a half-cent sales tax increase in order to fund critical highway and transportation projects throughout the county, including the Gold Line. The current expenditure plan details transportation projects throughout the county over the next couple decades. The board would like to accelerate the plan by an average of 10 years. While accelerating the plan sounds good in theory, the boards proposed plan does not accurately reflect how this will be accomplished, Claremont officials say. The proposed plan is incomplete in some cases, and incorrect in others, Mayor Opanyi Nasiali wrote in a statement on behalf of the city of Claremont. The expenditure plan was put together in 2008, and since that time extensive study has been conducted on many of the transit projects, Mr. Nasiali continued.
Regrettably, the proposed amendment does not provide information about the additional cost associated with accelerating selected projects. The proposed plan lists the cost estimate of an I-405 connector project as To Be Announced while Metros financial plan identifies it as $2.5 billion, Mr. Nasiali noted. The price point for the West Santa Ana Branch Project, connecting Orange County to Los Angeles via a railway, is also listed as pending GOLD though its been previously identified as LINE an estimated $605 million endeavor. Mr. Nasiali calls for actual cost estimates to be provided for both projects, and for the dollar amount of Measure R funds to be identified for each project, before approval of the plan. Sam Pedroza, Claremont council member and first vice chair of the Metro Gold Line Foothill Construction Authority board, noted that the plan does not accurately reflect the actual cost of the Foothill Extension Project. The expenditure plan lists the project as a $758 million venture. However, Mr. Pedroza pointed out that the actual current estimate is $1.71 billion, reflected in an update to the expenditure plan first discussed in 2012 and approved by the Foothill board this past April. While MTA officials say there is no more money left than the $758 million already allotted for the Foothill Extension through Azusa, Mr. Pedroza says it isnt about receiving more Measure R money, but having the expenditure plan accurately reflect the funding gap that needs to be filled in some way.
We arent asking for more Measure R dollars. We are just asking to be properly identified on the expenditure plan so we can say, We have an 800 million funding gap, we need to go out and help find funds and Metro, you need to help us. Other eastern Los Angeles County cities are joining in on the plea to the Metro Gold Line Foothill Construction Authority. Glendora, San Dimas and Pomona have also written to Metro, asking them to update the expenditure plan before moving forward with any Measure R changes. Mr. Pedroza hopes others will follow suit. Its a governance issue, Mr. Pedroza said. [This proposed plan] is misleading and not transparent. Its not telling the real story. Metro and Supervisor Michael Antonovich, chairman of the Metro board of directors, declined comment on the matter until the board meeting on June 27. The public is invited to sit in on the Metro boards review, which takes place at 9 a.m. in the Metro Boardroom, located at One Gateway Plaza in Los Angeles. Those unable to attend the meeting may send written comments through Thursday, June 27. Letters must be addressed to Board Administration, Metro, One Gateway Plaza, Mail Stop 99-3-1, Los Angeles, CA 900122952.

Police arrest suspect in armed robberies

A civil disturbance at the Claremont Lodge on Wednesday led police to the arrest of a man wanted for 2 armed robberies in Claremont. Suspect Davis Palomino, 26, of La Puente was being held at the Claremont jail pending his appearance in court today. Mr. Palomino is suspected of holding an employee of Yum-Yum Donuts at gunpoint last Friday, June 14, and making off with an undisclosed amount of cash. The following day, police believe Mr. Palomino was involved in the armed robbery of a pedestrian on Second Street, displaying a semi-automatic handgun and demanded the victims cell phone before fleeing. Though Mr. Palomino evaded arrest for a few days, it didnt take police long to catch up. Officers responded to a civil dispute at the Lodge where Mr. Palomino, matching the description of the robberies, was located. Matters became worse for Mr. Palomino when police located a handgun and clothes matching the description of the donut store robbery in his car. He is being held for $50,000 bail. wanted for 3 outstanding warrants for San Bernardino municipal code violations. He was arrested.

EDUCATION
New contract contains important gains for Claremont teachers
WILDERNESS PARK SURVEY continued from the previous page
hings were looking up for Claremont teachers heading into the Thursday, June 20 school board meeting, with the board expected to approve a tentative improved contract between the Claremont Unified School District and the Claremont faculty Association.
The 2012-2015 collective bargaining agreement, ratified by CFA members at their June 7 meeting, contained several gains for Claremont educators, including a modest but significant salary increase and the biggest jump in the districts contribution to teachers healthcare costs in years. Should the contract be approved, all district faculty would receive a one percent raise plus an additional professional development day. Since the average full-time teacher in Claremont makes about $65,000 per year, the hike constitutes a $650 per year increase. The raise is the first pay increase CUSD faculty has received since 2008, according to CFA representative and former teachers union president Joe Tonan. Should the new agreement go into effect, faculty will also be enjoying lower healthcare premiums. The district has agreed to increase the full-time teacher healthcare contribution from $6062 to $8052. Thats a big, big increase, Mr. Tonan said. The districts healthcare contribution has been pretty stagnant in recent years. CUSD paid out $5400 per teacher in 1985, an amount that has risen less than one percent per year in the nearly 2 decades that have ensued. Last year, the district agreed to temporarily increase its healthcare contribution. The approval of the tentative contract will make that permanent. With gains like those, its no small wonder a whopping 98.9 percent of teachers approved the new contract terms as signified by ratification. The district agreed to other teacher requests as well. In the past, when teachers engaged in summer work such as creating curriculum or serving on a committee, they were paid $100 per day. That amount has been negotiated up to $125 per day. CFA still feels it is too low, but its a step in the right direction, Mr. Tonan said. Under the new contract, teachers will also see their schedules become more uniform. Previously, every elementary school in Claremont taught a different number of minutes than every other school, with the amount of teaching hours varying by up to 3000 minutes per year. The faculty union and the district have agreed upon a uniform number of hours taught per year by each teacher, which is a number higher than the district average. All kids in the district will be in school more and teachers will be in school more hours, Mr. Tonan said. More specifically, half-day kindergartners will receive 37,040 hours of instruction; full-day kindergartners will receive 50,000; first through third graders will receive 52,050 and fourth through 6th graders will be 54,550. Community
Day School students will be given 69,300 hours of instruction; El Roble students will be given 56,878 hours of instruction, CHS students will be taught for 65,290 hours and San Antonio High School students will be taught for 67,228. In the area of working conditions, in which the contract has grown from about a page and a half to 7 CUSD pages, teachers won concessions in the rare NEWS instances when they feel threatened by a student or by a parent. In one provision, the district, if it is aware that a student has been arrested or convicted of a violent offense, is required to notify their teachers. In another, a teacher is allowed to request an administrator sit in on parent-teacher meetings if they feel threatened by the parent. The collective bargaining process is always a give and take, and Claremonts teachers made some notable concessions to district requests, Mr. Tonan noted. Teachers agreed to an increase in the time spent in staff meetings or professional learning communities (PLCs). The faculty union also agreed to a lessening of the health benefits for teachers who opted for an early retirement, between age 55 and 65. There was one area of disappointment for Claremonts teachers, Mr. Tonan noted. The teachers union had asked that district teachers who acquire National Board Certification, a prestigious status requiring more than 1000 hours to attain, be compensated with what they consider to be a token amount of money. They asked that such employees, the top echelon of teachers, be given $1000 per year on top of their salaries. Rewarding National Board-certified teachers, of which there are 8 in CUSD, is a common practice for many districts, Mr. Tonan noted. In this area, the CFA was shut down. We tried over and over again at the table to get some recognition but the report back was that the CUSD board had no interest at this time, he said. It was a very small monetary amount that we were asking for. It was very surprising. You can tell where the priorities of the district are by where they put their money, he continued. Theyre not willing to put it into National Board Certification, which recognizes teachers willing to go to the very highest level of teaching. The CFA will be bringing up that matter again next year. Despite their chagrin at losing that particular battle, the teachers union is overwhelmingly pleased with this years collective bargaining process, Mr. Tonan said. The district came out winning with this agreement, the teachers came out winning and the students won, Mr. Tonan said. Much of the credit for the contract negations success should be given to Kevin Ward, CUSDs assistant superintendent of human resources, who served as lead district negotiator, for helping set a tenor at the table that was respectful, according to Mr. Tonan. The smoothness of the talks were also a credit Superintendent Jim Elsasser, the union rep said. He was willing to really think about the proposals, not just to have knee-jerk reactions, but to really think about whats best for the district, and whats best for all concerned, he said.

Faulty pump at El Roble pool may cancel citys summer aquatics program
laremonts aquatics program may dry up this summer, much to swimmers dismay. City officials recently announced trouble with the pump at the El Roble pool, where the annual summer program is held.
While the aged pump is currently in operation, it is un-
known whether or not it will survive the summer. Officials noted that replacing the pump would be a time-consuming endeavor and would likely shut down aquatics program activities for the rest of the summer season. Administrators are contacting participants already signed up with the program and advising others to look into other viable programs should the program need to be canceled. For more information, contact the Hughes Center at 399-5490.
lem becomes less clear. r. Ramos says the city will send out a second survey and make further attempts at contacting residents in hopes of soliciting greater feedback. In the meantime, city staff members continue work on putting together a wilderness park master plan to address long-term goals like ameliorating parking issues. Brian Desatnik, director of community development, presented an oral report on the planned scope of this master plan at the Claremont Planning Commissions meeting on Tuesday. Mr. Desatnik explained that the proposed plan would include a study of the parks existing parking facilities as well as entertain the idea of adding additional designated parking areas. If usage [of the park] continues at its current rate, that lot may not be sufficient, Mr. Desatnik recognized. That could mean creating new parking lots at other access points or expanding lots that are already there. While noting the citys intent to explore the possibility of expanding parking facilities, Mr. Desatnik added that the city hopes to examine strategies on how to fill up the existing parking lots first. The wilderness park master plan will not be limited to parking, however. Staff will also include a list of park inventoryrestrooms, trash receptacles, etc.in the master plan, as well as a list of park access points, such as the western terminus on Pomello and Mountain Avenue. The hired master plan consultant will be asked to look for possible expansions to the wilderness trails and determine the different ways those trails are being usedfor hiking, biking and so forth. The consultant in charge of the master plan will also be asked to analyze the wilderness park hours, another area of contention for wilderness park users. The Claremont City Council will be tasked with approving the Request for Proposal in order to locate a consultant to draw up this master plan. It is expected to come before council on July 9 with the goal of hiring a consultant in the fall. It is unknown how long it will take to complete the master plan, but Mr. Desatnik estimates it will take at least a year. He assured that the creation of the master plan would not be a process left solely to the devices of the hired executor of the plan. There will be an extensive public participation element to the master plan process that will involve not just most of the city commissions but also stakeholders, the Claremont Wildlands Conservancy and other interested groups.
Dont like the game? Change the rules

by John Pixley
fter attendance at the hot topic presentations begun to dwindle, Ms. Glaudi begun seeking ways to revamp the program.
Sounds simple enough. And smart. Sometimes, when things are not working out, its good to revamp, shake things up and try something new. Sort of like getting a new perspective. Thats what Shannon Glaudi, senior recreation leader at Claremonts Joslyn Senior Center, was thinking. As noted recently in these pages, it was in regard to a longstanding interactive morning lecture series held at the center. It appears that she was right. And, in this case, it was indeed simple. A change of rooms played a big part in the reboot. Once the series was moved to the Oak Room dining hall, the dwindling reversed, and there was a much bigger turnout than the select few attendants that would show up for the previous program, according to Ms. Glaudi. Tinkering with the morning program at a senior center is one thing. What about tinkering with Claremonts streets? What about changing the road when we dont like the rules of the road? This is essentially what is being done as Claremont officials experiment with redesigning some streets rather than raising speed limits. As strange as this sounds, it stems from an even stranger requirement from the state that the speed limits be raised. Even stranger is that the state says the speed limits have to be raised, because people are driving faster. Never mind that speed limits are supposed to limit speed. Heres how the reasoningif that is what it can be calledworks: Cities are required to set a speed limit within a certain number of miles per hour of the speed a majority of cars travel at. Otherwise, a speeding ticket isnt enforceable in court. Not only did a Radar Speed Survey conducted last year suggest that people are driving faster in Claremont, but, with recent changes in the state regulations, the city now has to set the speed limit at the nearest 5 mph rather than within 5 mph of the majority speed. This means, for example, that if the speed of the majority of drivers
observer
on a street is 28 mph, the speed limit cant be 25 mph but has to be 30 mph. Like I said, strange. Many Claremonters thought it was not only strange but also unfair and dangerous, and they told city officials so, citing children playing and the like. Hence, a dozen or so street segments are being changed, with crosswalks, bike lanes and other traffic calming measures costing $165,000. What we need is really a small decrease in speed, just 1 or 2 mph on most of these streets to bring down the speed limit, Interim City Engineer Loretta Mustafa said. Thats what we are looking to do here. This scheme is most likely for the best, but Ms. Mustafa and the rest of us should be clear that that is what this is, a scheme. We shouldnt denynot that we arethat were fudging here, changing the rules when we dont like the game. A bit of fudging may well be perfectly harmless and may even be beneficial when it comes to a discussion program at the local senior center or even the city streets, but what about when it comes to the way the government operates or is run? Is it good when our officials fudge, change the rules, when the game isnt working for them, even if the result may be generally for the best? Eyebrows were raised earlier this month when California legislators sent a bill to Governor Jerry Brown that would allow him to attend closed meetings with county officials. The measure, AB 246, was written by Assemblyman Steven Bradford (D-Gardena) in reaction to a county prosecutor declaring that a private 2011 meeting between the governor and the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors violated the Ralph M. Brown Act, Californias open-meeting law. The topic at the meeting was Gov. Browns realignment plan to hold nonviolent felons and certain other low-level of-
fenders in county jails rather than state lockups, following federal court orders to reduce prison crowding. While those in favor of the bill claim it simply adds the governor to a list of officials and experts allowed under the Brown Act to attend closed-door meetings regarding public security matters, critics hold that it could be a slippery slope, used for an everexpanding range of public security matters, in addition to noting that it being requested by LA County reflects badly on the supervisors. As Terry Francke, the general counsel for the opengovernment advocacy group Californians Aware, said, This is how they correct violations of the Brown Act when theyre caught in the act: They change the law so it will give them cover in the future. Mr. Francke also pointed out that if the governor signs the legalization, it will mean he knew....the meeting was illegal when he spoke behind closed doors with the supervisors in 2011. Likewise, there was some head-scratching here last month when there was what appeared to be rule-bending or rule-stretching at a City Council meeting. It was all the more curious and perhaps disturbing when the cause was a well-intentioned one. The cause was the Mayors Against Illegal Guns petition encouraging the adoption of laws to ban lethal, military-style weapons and high-capacity ammunition magazines, develop technology to help law enforcement better trace illegal guns and punish those who obtain or deal such weapons and ammunition. Over 800 mayors in 44 states have signed the petition supporting the enforcement of gun laws within their respective communities and started by New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg in the wake of the school shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, the cinema shooting in Aurora, and other shocking mass shootings, like the one recently not too far in Santa Monica. The discussion at the meeting seemed to be at an end when a motion to direct the mayor to sign the petition failed, with Mayor Opanyi Nasiali and Councilmen Corey Calaycay and Sam Pedroza uneasy with forcing the mayor petition against his will and with dealing with a national or state issue, as Mr. Nasiali indicated, and one that is not so clear for all Claremont residents. Its not for the city to put all of the residents on record, Mr.

To the finder of the message in this bottle. Envy me!
Respectful speech is the order of the day

by Paul A. Buch, Cantor, Temple Beth Israel
arlier this month I was parked in the lot just north of Foothill on Towne Avenue, waiting for my lunch order, when I started to think about where I had gotten that innate sense of justice and right and wrong that we call our moral compass.
Who knows what brought those thoughts on. Maybe since it was coming up on Fathers Day, I was drawn to remembering the lessons and examples I had learned through my Dad. But whatever the reason, there was a particular
PIXLEY continued from the previous page
memory that vividly came forth. It went back to when I was about 10 years old, and the time he took me to the North Park Theatre (in Buffalo, NY where I grew up) to see a documentary film that had just come out called Point of Order. Point of Order was produced almost entirely from recorded excerpts of the live television broadcasts in 1954 of what were called the Army-McCarthy Hearings. These were a series of investigative sessions held by the US Senate to look into charges that Sen. Joseph
Inter-Faithfully SPEAKING
Calaycay declared. Mr. Pedroza began the bending and stretching by proposing a motion to authorize the mayor to sign the petition should he wish to do so now or in the future. The final twist came after the motion was approved, with Mr. Nasiali and Mr. Calaycay voting no, and City Attorney Sonia Carvalho said that, under the government code and with the mayor unavailable or [refusing] for any reason
to carry out your authorization, Mayor Pro Tem Joe Lyon could step into his shoes and sign the petition. Even residents in favor of the petition, like Claudia Strauss who take[s] heart in the fact that a majority of the council and the audience came forward in support of it, were perplexed. I feel a bit uncomfortable with the idea that the mayor pro tem can step in, she admitted. I wont go against legal counsel, but this is education for all of us. For sure.
McCarthy (R-WI), who was famous for his leadership in the effort to identify and remove suspected Communists from positions of responsibility and influence, had inappropriately requested favors from the Army for one of his former staff members. In turn, Mr. McCarthy accused the Army of attacking him so as to keep him from searching for Communists in the Armed Services. The title of the film refers to a term used in legal and parliamentary proceedings to halt whatever is going on to question whether what is happening is allowed under the rules everyone is supposed to be following. In the film, the term is heard over and over, especially as a way to interrupt both senators and witnesses who otherwise will not stop talking. As I look back at that day with Dad nearly 50 years ago, I can still remember how outraged and appalled I was by the behavior of these grown men in the film, most of whom were many years my fathers senior, who through spurious allegation and unfounded accusation sought to intimidate both the witnesses and each other until, either out of fear, anger, embarrassment or just emotional overload, they would crack and reveal that their motivations and actions were at least as heinous as those which they were being accused. In other words, they were trying to bully each other into submission.
Here in our community (and throughout our nation) we often focus on incidents of bullying and intimidation that take place in our schools, on the streets and online involving teens and youth in general. (Because I was different when I was a kid, I had to deal with both verbal and physical taunts well into junior high.) There are organized efforts to curb bullying among youth in almost every community now, as well as national attention at the highest level. These efforts are worthy and necessary (and still not adequate), but I remain deeply troubled by the lack of attention on what I believe to be the root cause the bullying behavior that is present among adults. This has now become so much a part of our public discourse, it threatens to deplete so many of our political and social institutions of their ability to create constructive and well-reasoned solutions to our challenges. So lets all take a look around us. When we disagree, are we respectfully suggesting constructive alternatives that take into account the position of those whose opinion may differ; or, are we using innuendo and condescension to yes, bully, them into submission? Perhaps it is time that, when we see such behavior, we too need not be afraid to call it out for what it is, both in our own actions and those of others. We, too, should not be afraid to call out (respectfully, of course) a point of order. Only then can we hope to set an example our kids can take to heart and emulate.

Toward a sustainable community plan

by Freeman Allen
rom now through the end of July there is an extraordinary opportunity to participate in the update of Claremonts Sustainable City Plan. You can add to its goals and action programs, or express support for what is already in the plan.
Demystifying
SUSTAINABILITY
and economic sustainability, and public outreach and implementation. As is evident from these, environmental aspects of sustainability have more emphasis than the important, but perhaps more nebulous, social and economic ones. Responsibility for most of the targeted actions is assigned to the city, as would be expected. Some responsibilities are assigned to others in the community such as the school district, the Claremont Forum, the Claremont Chamber of Commerce, and especially to the proposed community organization Sustainable Claremont (Go Green in the Plan), but there is no role assigned to others who have played major roles, or could do so. The list of likely participants includes interested individuals, Claremont businesses, colleges, service clubs (Kiwanis, Rotary, etc.), retirement communities like Pilgrim Place, or other nonprofit organizations such as Uncommon Good.
Claremonts 2006 General Plan called for all activities of the city to be examined through the lens of sustainability, defined as The ability of the city and residents of Claremont to meet the needs of the present economy, society and environment while preserving the ability of future generations to meet their needs. The General Plan called for creation of the Sustainable City Plan, which was adopted by the city council in October 2008. Because of this plan, and other community-wide initiatives, Claremont is increasingly being recognized for its leadership. The plan has 7 goal areas: resource conservation, environment and public health, transportation, sustainable built environment, open space and land use, housing
With the update of the plan there is an opportunity to include new goals and targets, and bring the plan to a new, higher level. The future of the plans implementation requires that the city begin to promote and empower more individuals and groups to take the initiative in proposing, planning, and executing programs and projectstransforming the Sustainable City Plan into a Sustainable Community Plan. This is the time to begin; it will be another four years before another update is scheduled. Please have a look at the existing plan and think about what should be addedits posted under Documents on the city website, www.ci.claremont.ca.us. These could be things that are already planned, underway or entirely new. Or express your thoughts on the plan and its relevance. Send suggestions or comments as soon as possible (before the end of July) to Chris Veirs, Claremonts sustainability coordinator, by email to cveirs@ci.claremont.ca.us.
Demystifying Sustainability is a project of Sustainable Claremont (sustainableclaremont.org), email address info@sustainable claremont.org. Follow us on Facebook at: facebook.com/ sustainable claremont and on Twitter #Green Claremont.

Scripps College works to pique interest of women in politics

Thirty-one women gathered at Scripps College this past week for the annual New Leadership Southern California conference. New Leadership Southern California is

The program consists of a 6-day summer residential institute, available to undergraduate women enrolled in any southern California college or university, or to southern California women who are attending out-of-state institutions.

AB 72 aims to speed up seat changes on water board
arlier this year, Three Valleys Municipal Water District introduced legislation that would amend a section of the water code pertaining to the timing in which elected directors of municipal water districts are sworn into office.
Existing state statute requires that newly elected members not be sworn in until the first Monday after January 1,
nearly 60 days after the election. Assembly Bill 72 would provide for newlyelected members to be sworn in on the first Friday in December, after certification of the election. Authored by Assemblyman Chris Holden and joint authored by Assemblyman Roger Hernandez, AB 72 generated bi-partisan support with multiple co-authors from both houses at the Capitol, including Assembly members Curt Hagman and Ian Calderon along with Senators Bob Huff and Carol Liu. After unanimously passing through
both houses of the state legislature in recent months, AB 72 was signed into law today by Governor Brown. AB 72 exhibits seeks to solve the current problem of lame duck municipal water district board members who continue to serve for 2 months after the voters have selected a replacement. In some instances, the outgoing directors may be disinclined to productively carry out the peoples business during their remaining time in office. Along with a large number of supporting municipal water districts, county
water districts and surrounding cities, AB 72 received the endorsement of the Association of California Water Agencies (ACWA), the California Special Districts Association (CSDA) and the California Municipal Utilities Association (CMUA). District General Manager Richard Hansen noted, AB 72 establishes good governance and restores consistency within the Water Code. We commend the Governors signing of this bill and appreciate the legislatures foresight in moving so rapidly to make AB 72 a success. AB 72 will take effect in January 2014.

Robert Ring named chief science officer of Autism Speaks

Former Claremont resident and 1986 CHS graduate Robert H. Ring, PhD, has been named chief science officer of Autism Speaks, the worlds leading autism science and advocacy organization. Dr. Ring, who is currently Autism Speaks vice president of translational research, has devoted his entire career to improving the lives of people affected by mental health disorders, with specific focus on autism spectrum disorders (ASD) during the last 7 years. This is a time of unprecedented progress and opportunity in the field of autism research, and Autism Speaks will continue to play a pivotal role as a catalyst for innovation, Dr. Ring said. As chief science officer of Autism Speaks, I have the responsibility of ensuring that our scientific work is always focused on delivering meaningful results for people with ASD and their families. I cant think of a more exciting or urgent challenge. Dr. Ring will lead Autism Speaks initiatives including the full genome sequencing collaboration with BGI and the Autism Tissue Program and its integration into the recently-announced Autism BrainNet, a multi-site network that will acquire, process, store and distribute brain tissue resources to accelerate understanding of the biological basis of autism. Dr. Ring joined Autism Speaks in June
OUR TOWN
2011 and has been responsible for the organizations translational research portfolio, which is focused on moving laboratory experiments into clinical trials, with the goal of improving outcomes for individuals with ASD. He also serves as president of Delivering Scientific Innovation for Autism (DELSIA), a venture philanthropy arm that is working beyond the science to catalyze scientific breakthroughs and innovations in technology into the development of products that will improve the quality of life and health for individuals with autism. Prior to joining Autism Speaks, Dr. Ring served as senior director and head of the Autism Research Unit at Pfizer, where he led the first research group in the history of the pharmaceutical industry focused specifically on the discovery and development of medicines for neurodevelopmental disorders. Dr. Ring earned a BA double major in both fine art and biology from Westmont College in Santa Barbara, and a PhD in molecular neurobiology from the City of Hope National Medical Center. He holds adjunct faculty appointments in the Departments of Psychiatry at Mount Sinai School of Medicine (New York) and Pharmacology and Physiology at Drexel University College of Medicine (Philadelphia).

Epic scenery, storytelling characterize folksy music festival
he Claremont Folk Festival, held on Saturday at the Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden (RSABG), was a rousing success this year, with guests raving about the lineup and the scenic new venue.
Along with ongoing musical entertainment, kids programs and workshops, the setting allowed families to roam through the botanic garden dedicated to native California plants, including a stop in the RSABGs annual Butterfly Pavilion. Theres no sugarcoating it. With the festival running all day starting at 10 a.m. and with temperatures approaching the 90s, the event was a real scorcher. There were plenty of trees to duck under, however, and with vendors selling snow cones, ice cream and cold beer, there were plenty of ways to beat the heat. We had a great time being able to enjoy ourselves also while serving beer, reported Emily Moultrie, co-owner of Claremont Craft Ales, whose brews proved to be one of the festivals more popular wares. A lot of people hadnt tried our beer before, so it was a lovely way to get people to discover us. Henry Rollins spoken word presentation was a pleasant discovery for Claremonter Tim Tipping, who is more familiar with Rollins past music career. I was hoping hed play some music, but I love what he did, Mr. Tipping said. What Mr. Rollins did was a combination of storytelling and proselytizing as he urged the audience to help the world move towards what he sees is an inevitable destiny. A time in which people look past details like race, geographic origin and sexual orientation to focus on their shared humanity. He could tell from looking at the crowd at the Claremont Folk Festival that they are suited to lead such a charge. Your kids are not getting hittheyll be reading before they get in schooland you know McDonalds and Coke and corn syrup will kill you, Mr. Rollins said. He exhorted the crowd to open their minds and find the stories everywhere they go, an endeavor to which he has dedicated his life. Sometimes youll hear someone say, Henry, its all going to hell in a handcart. [But] amongst you I feel safe, Mr.
COURIER photos/Steven Felschundneff Claremont resident David Lindley performs on the main stage Saturday afternoon at the 30th annual Claremont Folk Festival at Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden. It was the first time that the festival was held at the garden, which seemed to be a success as the event was sold out. Other noted acts included a spoken word performance by Henry Rollins, music by Claremont native Peter Harper, and a fun set by Janet Klein and her Parlor Boys.
The crowd laughs at the cringe-worthy descriptions of backstage food during David Lindleys performance of Cat Food Sandwiches on Saturday at Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden.
Rollins said. Im brutally optimistic. Were on this and were not going to drop the ball. The next performer to take the stage, internationally-renowned string musician David Lindley, likewise emphasized the importance of telling stories. One of the more poignant tales he told was of homeless Vietnam veterans in a moving rendition of Bruce Springsteens Brothers Under the Bridge: Campsites an hours walk from the nearest road to town/Up here theres too much brush and canyon/For the CHP choppers to touch down/Aint lookin for nothin, just wanna live/Me and the brothers under the bridge. Like every good raconteur, Mr. Lindley knows how to make listeners squirm for effect, as was the case with his tale of a gig where the hosts served a dubious treat of Cat Food Sandwiches.

song, Mr. Lindley partook, with ill-effects that he proceeded to describe in excruciating detail: That image is still in my brain. And now its in your head, it dont go away. A far lovelier image was that of the canopy of greenery surrounding the main stage as Mr. Lindleys evocative sliding and picking on a Hawaiian slide guitar provided an orchestral backing for Warren Zevons bittersweet The Indifference of Heaven. Mr. Tipping attended a Claremont Folk Festival 2 years ago, and heartily approved the change of scene. Its really pleasant here, Mr. Tipping said. Its hard not to enjoy the quiet of the garden. Hearing David Lindley perform was a sound for sore ears for Claremont artist Barry
Cisneros, who hit the 2013 Claremont Folk Festival with his wife Margaret. For 11 years, Mr. Cisneros brother, Tony, a local ceramicist, served as a soundman for Mr. Lindley, he related. Mr. Cisneros got into a lot of Lindley gigs over the years on the strength of that connection, but it had been some time since he had heard him play. Im old enough to remember actual loveins with the Flying Burrito Brothers and Kaleidoscope [Mr. Lindleys band from 1966-1970]. This is like a time machine, he marveled. If youre going back in time, some good beer can help smooth the journey. Ive been very fair. Ive tried both, Ms. Cisneros laughed, indicating the booths for Claremont Craft Ales and the Dale Bros Brewery. Sarah Torribio

CHS graduation yields thousands of supporters, words of wisdom
etween Claremont High School, San Antonio High School and the Claremont Adult School, some 675 young people gathered to receive their diplomas at the recent commencement, held on Thursday, June 16 at the Claremont High School football field.
There had been a bit of a kerfuffle in the weeks leading up to the ceremony, when students were informed that no guests could sit on the artificial turf fieldwhich was installed last summerin order to avoid wear and tear. After a general outcry from the Class of 2013, that decision was reversed. Each graduate was issued 5 on-the-field tickets to distribute to friends and family who wished to attend the ceremony, with additional guests able to find seats on bleachers on the north and south ends of the field. The weather was hot enough that many people used umbrellas as parasols up until the first bars of Pomp and Circumstance began. So waiting for the slew of outgoing students to file towards their seats while the Elgar composition played on a loop took the patience of a loving relative. The grads families wouldnt have missed their proud moment for the world, however. It was not the first such moment Todd and Maggie Grosjean, who came ready to cheer on their son Eric Grosjean, their third son to graduate from Claremont High School. But the moment still holds poignancy for them. Its always good to see them graduate. Its a lot of work, Mr. Grosjean said. Ms. Grosjean admitted to feeling a bit emotional. Its sad because its the last ceremony of childhood. Id rather have them stay little, she half-joked. The parents of graduate Alex Alarcon, Rene and John, had a similar division of feelings, with Mr. Alarcon pronouncing the day exciting and Ms. Alarcon deeming it sad. Both of them, however, shared pride in their sons success. Alex, who played baseball at CHS for 2 years, is headed off to college at Azusa Pacific University. Once the graduates were seated, they were flooded with inspiration in the form of musical performances by their peers, including a stunning rendition of Adeles Hometown Glory delivered by Alaina Hudson and uplifting talks delivered by standout students and staffers. For Kristen Strauss, president of the class of 2013, graduation offered a time for her to look back and reflect on the beginning of her school experience that, paired with the end, constitutes a full-circle experience. Kristen recalled stepping onto the schoolyard as a new kindergartner, armed with her Little Mermaid lunchbox and feeling ready to conquer the world. Once she realized her mother had left her, however, she burst into tears. I couldnt understand why someone

CHS COMMENCEMENT continued from page 18
who loved me so much could have walked away in my time of need, she recalled. After several other such transitions, such as the move from elementary school to junior high and from junior high to high school, Kristen said she learned that with change comes great opportunity. Its only fitting. I started off my school career crying over someone I loved leaving me, and I ended up crying because I was leaving behind those Ive come to love, she said. The follow-up speaker, associated student body president Madison Weigand, took the opportunity to remind students of the positive feelings present at graduation as well as the understandable misgivings. Madison said that amid the teary moments that pervaded the previous week, there was also a palpable and rising sense of excitement filling the members of the Class of 2013. Its okay to feel that earnest anticipation, she said. Just as the world is waiting to welcome us, we are ready to say hello. Much of that excitement stemmed from the collective furor of hundreds of students heading to colleges across the country, to every branch of the armed forces and to an array of divergent futures. As Aimee Orcasitas, the class representative for the San Antonio High School Class of 2013, moves onto her future, she wants to make sure everyone knows what a positive and transformative experience her time at San Antonio High School (SAH) was. Before she came to SAH, Aimee said her perception of the local continuation high school was tainted.
COURIER photo/Steven Felschundneff Claire Moore kisses her boyfriend Dennis Ramos as the Class of 2013 gets ready for graduation last Thursday at Claremont High. The couple, who have been dating for 7 months, will be headed in opposite directions next semester. Mr. Ramos will attend Arizona State University, while Ms. Moore begins studies at the University of Portland in Oregon.
But once she arrived there, with a monumentally poor attendance record and some hard work to undertake in order to graduate, she found that its model of staff attentivenessexemplified by principal Steven Boyd, who welcomed me with open arms. The student accountability was just what she needed.
We are the kids who could not be accepted because we could not fit into the cookie-cutter mold. But we still have the power to make something of ourselves, she said. Congratulations Class of 2013 for reaching this wondrous milestone! More words of wisdom were forthcoming as the CHS salutatorian Kimberly Chen and the CHS valedictorian Sonos Badran took to the stage. Kimberly asked her fellow students to wake up dreaming by forging their own paths, while Sonos cautioned peers against resting on their laurels. Today, our parents, teachers and friends think we are all hot stuff. Today, we are all successes. But what will tomorrow bring? Sonos asked. Our [supporters] and our opportunities can guide us, but in the end, what it boils down to
is our own choice to make our own decisions. In his acknowledgement of the class of 2013, CHS Principal Brett OConnor acknowledged the students part in reversing the no-sitting-on-the-field decision. The fact it was so heatedly contested occurred because it takes so many stakeholders to see a child from the start of school through graduation. This community highly values the importance of high-quality education for our students, he said. San Antonio High School principal said he likewise values the chance to help educate his students. Thank you for letting me be your principal, your part-time dad and your friend.

NOTICE OF TRUSTEES SALE TS No. CA-12537343-JP Order No.: 120393727-CA-GTO YOU ARE IN DEFAULT UNDER A DEED OF TRUST DATED 10/16/2007. UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDING AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. A public auction sale to the highest bidder for cash, cashiers check drawn on a state or national bank, check drawn by state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, or savings association, or savings bank specified in Section 5102 to the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state, will be held by duly appointed trustee. The sale will be made, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by the Deed of Trust, with interest and late charges thereon, as provided in the note(s), advances, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, interest thereon, fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee for the total amount (at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale) reasonably estimated to be set forth below. The amount may be greater on the day of sale. BENEFICIARY MAY ELECT TO BID LESS THAN THE TOTAL AMOUNT DUE. Trustor(s): CARL L. WORRELL, MARRIED, AS HIS SOLE AND SEPARATE PROPERTY Recorded: 10/30/2007 as Instrument No. 20072447586 of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of LOS ANGELES County, California; Date of Sale: 7/8/2013 at 9:00 AM Place of Sale: At the Doubletree Hotel Los Angeles-Norwalk, 13111 Sycamore Drive, Norwalk, CA 90650, in the Vineyard Ballroom Amount of unpaid balance and other charges: $437,907.09 The purported property address is: 457 N MOUNTAIN AVE, CLAREMONT, CA 91711 Assessors Parcel No.: 8311-023-004 NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this 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 recorders 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 800-280-2832 for information regarding the trustees sale or visit this Internet Web site http://www.qualityloan.com , using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-12-537343JP . 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. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidders sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. If the sale is set aside for any reason, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the deposit paid. The Purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee, or the Mortgagees Attorney. If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may have been released of personal liability for this loan in which case this letter is intended to exercise the note holders rights against the real property only. As required by law, you are hereby notified that a negative credit report reflecting on your credit record may be submitted to a credit report agency if you fail to fulfill the terms of your credit obligations. THIS OFFICE IS ATTEMPTING TO COLLECT A DEBT AND ANY INFORMATION OBTAINED WILL BE USED FOR THAT PURPOSE.

ANY INFORMATION OBTAINED WILL BE USED FOR THAT PURPOSE. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this 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, this information can be obtained from one of the following three companies: LPS Agency Sales and Posting at (714) 730-2727, or visit the Internet Web site www.lpsasap.com (Registration required to search for sale information) or Priority Posting and Publishing at (714) 573-1965 or visit the Internet Web site www.priorityposting.com (Click on the link for "Advanced Search" to search for sale information), or auction.com at 1- 800-280-2832 or visit the Internet Web site www.auction.com, using the Trustee Sale No. shown above.

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 (714) 573-1965 or or visit this Internet Web site www.priorityposting.com, using the file number assigned to this case 12-19022. 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.

The will and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the court. THE PETITION requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act.

IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney. IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor 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 representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.
