Boat, RV parking restrictions considered

By Denise Ellen Rizzo
Tracy Press
MOUNTAIN HOUSE
— Parking boats or rec-
reational vehicles on
Mountain House streets
for an extended period of
time may require a per-
mit in the future.
The Mountain House
Community Services
District board of direc-
tors is looking into an
enforcement package
that would make it possi-
ble for CSD employees to
monitor and tow violators
of the community’s mas-
ter restrictions, which
allow such nonstandard
vehicles to be parked
in driveways or on the
street for no more than
24 hours for loading or
unloading. The rest of the
time, they must be inside
a garage or a screened
enclosure with fences at
least 6 feet high.
Code enforcement offi-
cer Cedric Hathorn told
the board members at
their Sept. 13 meeting
that they needed a plan
to deal with the extended
parking of such vehicles
on community streets.
Giving voice to the
problem was Wicklund
resident Bob Collins, who
said there was a violator
in his village who took up
200 to 300 feet of street
parking for days at a time
in the summer with boats,
low-cost permit system
to allow residents to park
legally on the street for a
specific period of time.
Third, put up signs to
notify residents and non-
residents of the commu-
nity restrictions.
“We’re looking for a
way to balance all the rec-
reational activities of our
residents and to be fair
to allow them to do this,
but at the same time deal
with all the complaints
and people abusing the
usage of these vehicles,”
Hathorn said, adding
that although boats and
RVs can be impounded
if they are left out lon-
ger than 24 hours, some
people have complained
that the restrictions are
too vague or unfriendly to
residents.

“If I had a bass boat,
I would love to stage it

it on the sign that says
‘except by permit.’ And
make the permit process
easy — we want our resi-
dents to interact with us.”
Hathorn said he hadn’t
come up with a permit
fee proposal yet, but it
would be structured sim-
ilarly to someone getting
a camping permit and
being issued a placard for

“I want to balance

Language no barrier in trafficking warning Water rights

By Denise Ellen Rizzo

Tracy Press
Members of the local
Hispanic community learned
about the dangers of human
trafficking during a bilingual
awareness presentation by
the county district attor-
ney’s office Tuesday night at
Kimball High School.
Suzanne Schultz,  family
crimes coordinator for the
county district attorney’s
office, leads the county
human trafficking taskforce
workgroup focused on edu-
cation and outreach. She
said it was their first Spanish
presentation in Tracy.
As Schultz provided
information in English, vic-
tim advocate Liliana del
Castillo-Perez translated it
into Spanish for an audience
of more than 60 people.
Schultz told the story of a
10-year-old girl and how she
was groomed into the world
of human trafficking. She
also identified trafficking
warning signs and played a
recording of an emotional
911 call from a child victim
begging police to save her.
Castillo-Perez said she felt
the Spanish-speaking resi-
dents needed to hear the
information, and providing
it in their native language
made it easier for them to
understand.
“I don’t even have words to
explain how much pleasure
it gives me to see parents
were actually intrigued to
come and hear about human
trafficking — and seeing
them walk away a bit more
informed and educated,” she
said. “I think that was the
highlight of this.”
Due to the subject matter,
Castillo-Perez said she could
tell by the audience’s reac-
tion that it was difficult for
them to hear it.
“Even at some point I had
to stop and just tell them, ‘I
know this is getting hard for
you guys, because I’m look-
ing at reactions and faces
and I see you are looking at
me a little bit concerned, but
I’m telling you, this is how it
goes down,’” she said. “‘And
I want you to understand
that this is the effect that it
has on our victims.’ So when
I said that, I think it kind of
helped them understand.”
Resident Rocio Virgen said
having the presentation in
Spanish made a big difference.
“There’s a lot of parents
that don’t speak English,”
she said. “So the fact that
she was there and able to
communicate exactly what
Suzanne was saying, that’s
more than enough. A lot
of parents are shocked —
‘Wow, this is going on here’
— that don’t understand
because of the language
barrier. So this is perfect.
This is one way of getting
informed.”
Alice and Richard English
said they had heard Schultz’s
presentation before, but they
liked the bilingual version.
“The Latino community,
they keep a lot of that to them-
selves,” Alice English said.
“But this brought it to the
forefront — this is happening
in our community. I think it
was really good, because I see
the diversity today versus the
other meetings.”
Richard English called the
topic devastating and said it
was scary to believe traffick-
ing was happening here. He
said everyone should hear the
presentation, because young
kids never think it could hap-
pen to them, but the presenta-
tion showed it could.
Jennifer Douglas took
her daughter Taylor and
Taylor’s girlfriend, Elizette
Nunez, to the presentation.
Both eighth-graders said it
was very informative.
“You get to learn more
and more about everything
that is going on,” Elizette
said. “You learn how every-

dents and members of

thing works, what causes it.
My mom always tells me,
‘This is happening’ and to
be safe. The 911 calls, … it
almost made me cry.”
The presentation was
coordinated by the parent
liaison for Kimball and Tracy
high schools, Pia Simmonds.
She said she promoted the
event by mailing invitations
to Spanish-speaking par-
ents at both schools.
“We need to teach the
people, not only the Spanish
speakers but everybody,”
Simmonds said. “We need to
learn that we can help and we
can teach our kids how to say
no. How to stay away from
things that they don’t know.”
Schultz said some of the
audience members told her
that hearing her presenta-
tion in Spanish really hit
home for them.
“If we can just keep some-
body safe, regardless of what
language they speak, that’s
critical, and that’s what we
want to do,” Schultz said.

some balance” to the water rights
enforcement procedures of the state
Water Resources Control Board.
“They (water board members
and staff) act as the judge, jury and
prosecutor of the water world with
immense impunity and no account-
ability,” Gilmore declared. “When the
scales are tipped, water users lose
faith in the process.”
The bill called for an administra-
tive law judge in a newly created
Water Rights Division to preside over
water rights hearings.
AB 313 received bipartisan sup-
port as it passed both the Assembly
and Senate before going to the gov-
ernor’s desk.
Despite the veto, Gray said he
would keep working on the water
board fairness issue.
Brown, in his veto message, also
indicated the issue was not dead. He
directed the secretary of the state’s
Environmental Protection Agency to
evaluate the potential role of admin-
istrative law judges and provide a
recommendation for improving the
water board’s hearing process.

Museum well worth a visit
EDITOR,
I want to encourage all Tracy
residents to visit the marvelous
Tracy Historical Museum on
Adam Street.
They hosted History Days over
the weekend, featuring Civil War
re-enactors who enthusiastically
educated and entertained with
their passionate knowledge of
that incredibly critical time in our
American history. We were pleas-
antly surprised by the fascinat-
ing exhibits of Tracy history and
enjoyed witnessing young people
of all ages reviewing articles from
the past as well as participating
in the special activities related
to the mid-1800s such as can-
dle-making, tin smithing, creating
fire with flint as well as the expe-
riences of Harriet Beecher Stowe
and Native Americans.
The docents were extremely
engaging and welcoming as we
spent several hours exploring
the treasures carefully displayed
throughout the building. To see
how Tracy developed over the
last 200 years was amazing!

Go teal for Halloween
EDITOR,
Food allergies and Halloween.
A scary thought, going trick-
or-treating knowing that one
of your “treats” may be dan-
gerous to your health, or even
life-threatening to you or one of
your children. Halloween is such
a fun holiday for the kids, so how
can we let them share in the fun,
like everyone else?
The Teal Pumpkin Project does
just that! Teal-colored pumpkins
indicate allergy awareness and
the opportunity to enjoy trick-
or-treating with non-food items
such as pencils, crayons, toys,
etc. wherever a teal-colored
pumpkin is displayed.
Teal-colored pumpkins may
be purchased at craft stores, or
you can make your own by paint-
ing a pumpkin, which can be a
fun project for everyone! When
a little trick-or-treater with food
allergies sees you are displaying
a teal-colored pumpkin at your
house, they will know they can
enjoy a treat that will be safe
for them.
Let’s get the word out about
the Teal Pumpkin Project so
everyone can participate.
For more information you can
go to the TealPumpkinProject.
org website to include your
address on the Teal Pumpkin
Project participation map and
learn more about fun projects
and activities as well as free
resources (signs, etc.) to further
indicate allergy awareness at
your home.
Let’s get the word out about
the Teal Pumpkin Project so we
can all help keep those with food
allergies safe.

Library should be city priority
EDITOR,
On Monday, the City Council
is holding a special meeting to
select the amenities the coun-
cil will commit funds for, using
Measure V tax dollars. From the
many different projects the coun-
cil may pick from, I believe that
state-of-the-art library should be
placed on the top of the list and
made a priority for our city.
There is an abundance of
articles and research that high-
lights the importance of a public
library and the fundamental role
a public library plays in learning,
adult education, communication
technology, and the civic impact
libraries have on the communi-
ty in general. A state-of-the-art
public library can offer programs
people need to improve their
quality of life and to increase
individual options in a complex
society about health, education,
business, child care, computers,
the environment, job search, and
much more.
From the many benefits a
public library may have in our
community, I would like to high-
light the tangible importance
the library can play in the eco-
nomic development and future
of our town. Tracy is at the
doorstep of the Silicon Valley; a
state-of-the-art library can have
a fundamental role enriching
our children and students in
learning about computers and
coding. In today’s world, pro-
gramming, or coding, is a digital
literacy skill that has become
as important as reading and
writing. Our proximity to the
valley where many companies
that changed the world started
makes it more appropriate for
our town to teach technology
and programming to our stu-
dents. Learning to code builds
rational thinking and problem
solving skills, providing pow-
erful tools that transfer to
other subjects and create life-
long learners. Our town library
together with our school system
should adopt the mission to help
our students learn the basics
of coding for elementary school
kids, teens, young adults, and
midcareer professionals.
The council should take the
necessary steps and initiate a
study that will lead to creating a
state-of-the-art library and allo-
cate the necessary funds that
will enable the library to cre-
ate the programs that will help
transform Tracy into a tech-
nology proficient town. I heard
our mayor speak few times and
read his five-point plan; adopting
projects that improve our town’s
proficiency in technology is an
integral part of the economic
development vision and enticing
technology companies and big
business to our town.

cial statements and other
public city documents.
In the past few years, the
City Council has installed a
computer outside the city
clerk’s office for the public
to peruse documents from
Freedom of Information
Act requests.
These were excellent
decisions by our city lead-
ers that increased access
to public information.
Which is why many
local folks are baffled by
recent decisions to with-
hold information that is
clearly of public concern.
Taken as a whole, the
dismissal of former City
Manager Troy Brown,
appointment of Fire Chief
Randy Bradley as interim
replacement, and unex-
plained “leave of absence”
of Assistant City Manager
Stephanie Garrabrant-
Sierra are all major chang-
es for the city.
It is certainly nothing
new for a governing body
to select a new chief exec-
utive to execute the body’s
governing decisions. If the
majority of the City Council
had said, for example, “We
felt Brown’s style of man-
agement was not a good
match for our plans going
forward,” at least that would
be a response. Instead, the
community has heard noth-
ing. Council members who
have spoken tangentially
about their feelings on the
matter have been publicly
threatened with prosecu-
tion for violating the Brown
Act. The act governs pub-
lic meetings but not what
council members say to the
public to provide insight
into their votes — and there
is no criminal violation in
doing so.
The council did offer
slightly more explanation
FRIDAY, OCT. 27, 2017
on why four members voted
for Bradley, referencing his
handling of a recent dis-
agreement with the county
over response to medical
calls. There was no indica-
tion, however, of why mem-
bers felt Bradley was qual-
ified to be a city manager.
Nor was there any expla-
nation of why Garrabrant-
Sierra, the assistant city
manager, was not consid-
ered a viable choice.
Last week, Bradley
said only that Garrabrant-
Sierra was on leave and
that the reason for and
duration of the leave were
personnel matters that he
was not free to discuss.
The lack of explanation
for these decisions leaves
the community to specu-
late about the reasons for
the firing of Brown and
what appears to be the
eventual official termina-
tion of Garrabrant-Sierra.
Why did three members of
the City Council feel it was
necessary to clean house
at the top of the City Hall
hierarchy? How will the
city accomplish its goals
without the two key people
who have been involved in
important and even urgent
city issues? Is a recruit-
ment process in place?
When City Manager
Leon Churchill was fired
in 2013, the city released
a copy of the separation
agreement with him. That
was a good precedent, and
we hope soon to learn more
specifics about Brown’s
termination and the finan-
cial agreement between
him and the city. Same
would apply to Garrabrant-
Sierra, assuming that she
is also terminated.
The mayor and other
council members cam-
paigned on transparency.
While the City Council
deserves credit for open-
ing up some areas of City
Hall, the community is get-
ting the opposite of trans-
parency in this case, and
all the unanswered ques-
tions have left many with
only one: “What’s going on
at City Hall?”

Bradley questions within that organization

remain
EDITOR,
My condolences to
acting City Manager
Randall Bradley regard-
ing the recent loss of his
father. Having experi-
enced the passing of both
of my parents, I know
what an emotionally dif-
ficult time that can be,
especially when com-
pounded by the awkward
timing of being asked to
replace your just-fired
boss during your father’s
funeral service. In retro-
spect, since there was no
apparent reason to fire
Troy Brown, perhaps the
mayor could have wait-
ed until Mr. Bradley had
time deal with his family
situation to ax Brown.
I regret that Mr.
Bradley was uncomfort-
able that I (and many
others) raised the ques-
tion of a possible quid-
pro-quo involving the
skyrocket trajectory of
a council member’s hus-
band’s career within the
Tracy Fire Department
and his appointment as
acting CM. It was an
uncomfortable question
to raise but an obvious
one when the situation
is viewed in its totality.
As a council member,
Veronica Vargas has
consistently been over-
ly involved in matters
pertaining to the Tracy
Fire Department and I
have heard voices from
express concern that she
has been running the
department. The fact
that she asked for and

received technical advice
from Fire Chief Bradley
in late 2016 regarding
a Trumark Homes (her

development in Newark
only adds to the optic
that Mr. Bradley and
Mayor Pro Tem Vargas
have been professionally
overly familiar.
Voices from within
TFD and the community
in general also have asked
for some time how a per-
son with significant per-
sonal background issues
can ascend to a position
just short of fire chief.
That is a good question
that no doubt will contin-
ue to be ignored.
Mr. Bradley is abso-
lutely correct about
labor negotiations, recy-
cled water agreements,
fire governance and
other critical issues fac-
ing Tracy in the near
future. I am prompted to
ask, why take the person
who has been working
on many of those issues
for months and make her
disappear? Time will tell
if Mr. Bradley is part of
the solution or part of the
problem when it comes
to restoring integrity to
Tracy city government. I
wish him well.
Michael Maciel,
Tracy
here are so many things to
love about the fall season.
For me, I adore the boun-
tiful colors of the changing tree
leaves and the crisp feeling in the
air. There is just something so spe-
cial in the change of the season.
With fall, howev-
er, comes the end of
daylight saving time
— which is my least
favorite part of the
season. This year,
look to set your
clocks back an hour
TRACY Nov. 5 at 2 a.m.
TALKS Do you ever stop
ANNE MARIE and wonder why
FULLER we do the time
change? In a nut-
shell, the practice
started as a way to save energy.
The idea of using daylight to save
on energy is not a new concept, and
even before the practice was put into
use, it was fancied an intriguing idea
centuries ago. Benjamin Franklin
toyed with the idea back in 1784
when he penned a satirical letter to
the editor of the Journal of Paris, in
which he explained how rising ear-
lier in the day and utilizing sunlight
hours would save substantially on
candle usage into the night. Franklin,
who was 78 at the time, gave a per-
sonal experience of his in which he
was suddenly woken up at 6 a.m. and
was surprised to find his room full of
sunlight. His energy-saving example
looked at a six-month time window
from March 20 to Sept. 20.
The idea was just that: an idea.
More than a century later, another
gentleman by the name of William
Willett also had the idea to use sun-
light hours to save energy. He came
up with the concept to change peo-
ple’s clocks to utilize daylight hours.
The concept didn’t take and Willett
passed away in 1915. He would
never see his idea come to fruition.
It took the First World War to
implement the idea of time change
in the United States as a way to
save energy. Given the time this was
put into practice, it served a great
purpose. Yet I wonder if we still
need to subscribe to the annual tra-
dition. Has it outlived it usefulness?
Not every state takes part in day-
light saving time — nearby Arizona
doesn’t, for example. Should we
continue to do so? Let’s find out
what people in our community
think about the annual practice.
“We are so used to doing it,” Flor
Castro said. “When you are work-
ing, it’s a big thing when you have
to wake up and start your day ear-
lier. I remember when I took the
kids to school and it was still dark.
You think about the other states
that don’t do the time change and
wonder if we still need to.”
“I would be OK with getting rid
of the time change,” Bryan Bentley
said. “When you gain an extra
hour of daylight, you feel great, but
when you lose that hour, it affects
the rest of your day. If you com-
mute, you are basically getting up
an hour earlier and now you have
more tired people on the road.”
“I like when it gets darker ear-
lier for two reasons,” Jim Thorp
explained. “After 30 years of hav-
ing to get up at 3 a.m. to deal with
the traffic over the Altamont, get-
ting that extra hour of sleep was
a gift. Especially the first week
when my body clock made the
adjustment. The other reason is,
to me, it represents cooler weath-
er, which I enjoy. But I know I’m
in the minority.”
“The time change doesn’t affect
me,” John Cunningham said. “I just
wake up earlier. Our cellphones
automatically change the time. I’m
sure it benefits some people, but
unless it has great impact on my
life, I am really indifferent about
the time change.”
“I don’t see a purpose in chang-
ing it back at this point,” Jeff
Porto said. “Some people might
like it. Sometimes people want
change, but if you change it, that
would make people have to adjust
to it and that might take awhile.
How would people benefit by
changing it? OK, I’m done.”
I talked with a lot of people over
a couple of weeks about this topic.
I got the feeling that it was pretty
even-steven when it came to the
annual time change tradition. It
looks like it’s here to stay, at least
for now.
Remember to set your clocks
back one hour on Sunday, Nov. 5,
at 2 a.m. — or at bedtime Nov. 4. 
It’s also a great practice to change
your smoke alarm batteries when
you set your clocks back.

The pet-friendly annual Barktoberfest drew

The six-hour free event, which ran from 10

served as a fundraiser for the local nonprofit.
“Animal Rescue of Tracy is happy to put on

Bill’s email got my attention,
since I had known many of
the Sillivans, aware that their
last name was spelled with an
“I” instead of the usual “U.”
(I should add that Jack made
things more than a bit confus-

Sullivan.)

School and continuing through
West Park (grades 5-8) and
Tracy High (Class of 1950).
And, yes, I also knew Frank
Hoyt. In the Oct. 3 column
about the impact of Holly Sugar
on Tracy, I mentioned Frank
as one of the managers of the
Holly Sugar farm. Among the
Holly factory managers men-
tioned was Clyde Abbott.
I single them out since Frank
and Clyde were two of the best
managers, highly-respected cit-
izens and yes, although neither
liked the word, first-rate politi-
cians in our town’s history.
Frank grew up on a farm in
western Nebraska, serving as
a machine-gunner in the Army
in France during World War I.
After the fighting stopped, he
participated in the formation of
the American Legion in Paris.
After the war, Frank worked
at developing irrigation systems
and farmed in western Nebraska.
In 1935, he came to Tracy to
take the job as farm manager on
Holly’s land west of the factory.
In 1943, he was hired as vice
president and general manager
of Berverdor Inc., which farmed
some 2,700 acres north of town

and owned a number of com-
mercial properties in Tracy.
With Berverdor, Frank used
his experience in Nebraska to
develop irrigation systems in the
Delta. He was a director of the
county Farm Bureau and served
as president of the reclamation
district that serves Fabian Tract
and of the California Asparagus
Growers Association.
In 1960, he left Berverdor to
run for San Joaquin County
supervisor, winning handily.
He served on the board for 12
years, including several one-
year terms as board chairman.
He was active in pushing
construction of the new (now
recently replaced) courthouse
in Stockton in 1964 and in
securing funding to strengthen
the Delta levee system, and he
was a leader in working with
Rep. John McFall of Manteca to
secure federal funding to build
the New Melones Dam, which
stores water for farms down-
stream, including the Delta.
Frank was one of the steady
hands on the board at a time
when several supervisors —
one an eccentric market owner
and the other a young hotshot

wanting to climb the political
ladder in a hurry — were act-

Frank retired from the board
in 1972, but he remained active
with the Legion. He died in
October 1986 at the age of 88.
Clyde Abbott came to Tracy
from Delta, Colorado, in 1953
to be manager, and later super-
intendent, of the Holly factory.
He was remembered by many
Holly employees for his mana-
gerial style — firm but not con-
frontational and on good terms
with employees of all levels.

conflicts and gaining consensus.
I can recall Clyde being espe-
cially proud of the factory’s new
silver diffuser, which separated
sugar juice from pulp, installed
in 1958 to boost production at
the plant. He retired in 1963
after 13 years as local manager
and 43 years with Holly. (His
two sons, LeRoy and Phil, had
high-level jobs with Holly.)
Away from the factory,
Clyde was known for his civic
involvement. He was a long-
time member of the Tracy
Community Memorial Hospital
board of directors, serving six
years as board president, and
was a director of the Tracy
Chamber of Commerce and an
active member of St. Bernard’s
Catholic Church.
Clyde surprised a lot of peo-
ple when, soon after retiring
from Holly, he decided to run
for City Council in 1964.
And even more surprising,
he not only won one of two
open seats but was the top
vote-getter among seven can-
didates. (Woody Souza won the
second open seat.)

TRACING TRACY CONTINUED FROM PAGE 14
The fact that a former mayor, Henry
Buthmann, was a candidate, and the
current mayor, W.E. “Brownie” Brown,
had mounted a write-in campaign after
first deciding not to run, paved the way
for someone with a solid managerial
background and not embroiled in City
Hall politics to be first choice with
Tracy voters.
Clyde promised to be cautious with
city spending while working at bringing
new industries to Tracy.
In the final two years of his four-year
term, he was elected mayor by the coun-
cil. He guided council discussions on the
need for a new City Hall and corporation
yard and expanded sewage treatment
plant. He conducted meetings the same
way he managed the Holly plant, often
with a quip and a twinkle in his eye on
the way to solving problems and gaining
council agreement.
After serving a four-year term on the
council, Clyde retired from public life,
remaining in Tracy until his death in
October 1988 at the age of 93.
It’s a bit difficult to adequately
relate the special impact Frank and
Clyde made on Tracy, but having two
successful business leaders — both
Holly “imports” — provide community
leadership on the county and city levels
is something that needs to be remem-
bered. I can say that without equivoca-
tion. I saw them both in action.

Mary Margaret Perry, “Peggy” to her friends, was born on March 9, 1941,
in Pontiac, Michigan. She softly pass-
ed away from this life at 4:23 a.m.,
October 12, 2017.
Peggy was a longtime resident of
Tracy, CA, before moving to Manteca in
2014.
She is survived by her sister, Carol
Ann Wilson; two children, daughter Kelly
Padgett and son John Perry; granddaugh-
ter, Haley Perry; and great-granddaughter,
Parker. She was preceded in death by
her daughter Kimberly Padgett and her
son Donald Padgett.
Peggy worked at many jobs as she
struggled to raise her four children alone.
She waitressed at the Nut Tree restaurant
in Fairfield, and in the ’70s, she bartended and danced as a go-go girl to
make ends meet. Later, she was employed as the head cook at a nursing
home, but by far, her favorite job was as an engineering tech for the Law-
rence Livermore Lab, where she spent close to 15 years.
Peggy loved cooking for the girls at Girls Camp and always made and
gave away candles. She was an avid journalist and loved to write poetry.
Her greatest joy came from spending time with her family near Half Moon
Bay. She had a brilliant mind and a vibrant personality.
About 17 years ago, she changed her life when she became a member of
the LDS Church. She was proud to be a Mormon and held true to her testi-
mony to her dying day. Peggy will be missed by those who loved her so well.
A Memorial Service is planned for 10:00 a.m., Saturday, October 28th at the
LDS Chapel located at 6060 Northland Road, Manteca, CA

Wanda Maria Hirsch
April 23, 1920 •• October 19, 2017
Wanda Maria Hirsch passed away unexpectedly at home in
Tracy Ca. on October 19, 2017. Wanda was born on April 23, 1920
to Anton and Alice Rosinski in Lawton North Dakota. Wanda was
one of two children with a brother named Paul.
Wanda grew up on her parent’s family farm in North Dakota
and graduated from Eastview High School. She attended Mayville
State College and graduated on May 29,1940 before moving to
San Francisco. While living in San Francisco Wanda was initially
employed by Southern Pacific Railroad and then during WWII
Wanda became a welder at one of the Bay Area ship yards. When
Wanda had free time she loved to play baseball and was part of a
women’s baseball team.
While working in San Francisco, Wanda learned from a co-
worker that there was a shortage of teachers in California at that
time. Her friend gave Wanda’s name to school officials as someone who would be a good teacher. While work-
ing during the day, Wanda attended night school and earned her Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Education.
In 1946 Wanda moved to Tracy where she started teaching 4th grade at West Park School. During
this time she met and married her husband, Jack Hirsch who worked for Southern Pacific Railroad in
Tracy. After teaching three years at West Park School, Wanda made the move to Central School where she
taught 4th grade for the next 32 years retiring in 1981. During her 35 years of teaching, Wanda earned
recognition from the State of California as the “Teacher of the Year in 1980”.
Wanda’s positive influence on children over her 35 years of teaching created a legacy that until the day
she passed, many of her former students kept in contact with her. She remembered all of her students as
if they were her own children. She could tell you where they sat in her classroom and what they looked
like. Many of her former students from all over the country would make it a point to stop by Wanda’s house
whenever they would be in the Tracy area.
Wanda was also a lover of animals, especially her cats. Wanda was a big supporter of the SPCA and local
animal shelter. She was a devout parish member of St. Bernard’s Catholic Church. Wanda liked to travel
and would take trips with her friends to Hawaii, Hong Kong, Yellow Stone Park, Washington DC, Barbados
and a cruise of the Mediterranean Sea.
Due to her passion and absolute dedication to making a difference in the lives of her students and
the Tracy Community, on October 24, 1997, Wanda Hirsch Elementary School was dedicated in her
name. Given the opportunity to name her school’s mascot, Wanda chose the Patriots as the school mascot
because she was very patriotic. For over a decade, Wanda funded theater productions at Hirsch School so
students could experience watching plays at school. Wanda Hirsch will be dearly missed by all, and will
be in our thoughts and hearts forever.
Wanda was preceded in death by her husband of 30 years, Jack Hirsch, her brother Paul, parents Alice and Anton.
There will be a Visitation at Hotchkiss Mortuary on Monday October 30, 2017, 9:30am to 11:00am. A
Public Graveside Service will be held at the Tracy Cemetery located at 501 E. Schulte Rd. starting at 12:00.
In lieu of flowers, Donations in her name can be sent to the local
SPCA, Tracy Animal Shelter or to the Wanda Hirsch School.

Turnovers costly for Mustangs in OT loss to Huskies

By Bob Brownne
Tracy Press
Mountain House football
coach Jason McCloskey
wants his players to remem-
ber that a three-touchdown
lead is a long way from a
guaranteed victory.
The Mustangs (4-4, 0-3
Trans Valley League) had
to learn that for themselves
in their homecoming game
Friday. They watched the
Hughson Huskies (4-4, 1-2
TVL) exploit their mis-
takes, including a series
of turnovers, to turn the
Mustangs’ 26-6 halftime
lead into the Huskies’
38-32 win in overtime.
“We’ve done it all year.
We were up on Ripon and
we let ’em back in the
game,” McCloskey said,
referring to the first Trans
Valley League game on
Oct. 6, when the Mustangs
were up 21-7 at halftime
only to lose 33-21. “Every

High seed in postseason at stake for Bulldogs in Week 9

Press staff report
Week 9 of high school football
will be the Tracy High Bulldogs’
chance to secure a high posi-
tion in the Sac-Joaquin Section
playoffs.
There is still a chance for
teams to shake up the Tri-City
Athletic League standings in
the last two weeks of league
games before the top three
teams go into the playoffs.
Tracy (5-3, 2-1 TCAL) sits in
third place in the TCAL behind
St. Mary’s and Lincoln, which
are both undefeated in the
TCAL with three wins. A victo-
ry for Tracy against Lincoln on
Friday would put the Bulldogs
and Trojans in a tie for second
— or a three-way tie for first
if Lodi were to beat St. Mary’s
that same day.
The SJS playoffs are divid-
ed into seven divisions based on
school size. The largest schools
are divided into three 16-team
brackets. There are three more
eight-team brackets, and the
smallest schools go into a six-
team bracket, adding up 78
teams in all going to the playoffs.
Tracy is the only local team in
the top 78 after Week 8, accord-
ing to the section’s list of team
rankings based on win totals.
The Bulldogs are ranked
43rd in the section, which
puts them in the lower half of
Division I. Wins against Lincoln
this week and West next week
could move the Bulldogs to the
upper half of the bracket and
give them a home game for the
opening week of playoffs.
Mountain House (4-4, 0-3
Trans Valley League) fell to
79th with the Mustangs’ loss
on Friday to Hughson. The
Mustangs’ playoff hopes rest on
the next two games. So far, the
Mustangs have no league wins,
and they would need at least two
to be considered as an at-large
team. Even with a 6-4 record,
they would be a low seed.
Millennium’s only chance to
make the playoffs would be to
win the next two games and fin-
ish in third place in the Central
California Athletic Alliance.
The Falcons are 2-6 overall, 1-2
in league.
West (1-7, 0-3 TCAL) still has
a chance to finish as a third-
place team in the TCAL. To do
that, the Wolf Pack would need
to beat Tokay this week and
Tracy next week — and the
outcome of other TCAL games
would also decide if West could
move up in the standings. If
everything worked in West’s
favor, certain tiebreaker formu-
las would come into play.
Kimball’s (1-7, 1-4 Valley Oak
League) chance of finishing as
a third-place team in the VOL
disappeared with Friday’s loss
to Oakdale. Central Catholic
and Oakdale are still undefeat-
ed in the VOL and will face
off in the last week of play.
Manteca and East Union, both
3-2, are tied for third place and
will face each other next week.

CROSS-COUNTRY
Kimball girls finish strong at final VOL meet
By Bob Brownne
Tracy Press
For the second year in a
row, the Kimball High girls
cross-country team turned up
its energy to finish as one of
the top teams in the final league
meet of the season.
Last year, it was a win by one
point over Sierra and Oakdale,
and this year, the Jaguars fin-
ished in a tie for first place with
Sierra. Tiebreaker rules gave
Sierra the advantage, making
the Timberwolves the repeat
Valley Oak League champion.
Sierra and Kimball each scored
42 team points at Wednesday’s
meet at Eagal Lakes next to the
San Joaquin River.
The two teams dominated
the varsity girls race — each
with their top five runners fin-
ishing in the top 14, and Kimball
with four runners in the top 10.
Sierra had the first-place run-
ner, junior Megan Oblin, who fin-
ished the 5,000-meter course in
20 minutes, 15.8 seconds, while
Kimball’s lead runner, junior
Talyn Steffens, finished in fifth
place with a time of 21:10.1.
Kimball’s top five also includ-
ed sophomore Jordyn Gleaton,
seventh place (21:16.2); junior
Haifa Ahmed, eighth place
(21:23.0); sophomore Emily
Grover, ninth place (21:42.0);
and sophomore Vanessa Perez,
13th place (23:10.5).
The tiebreaker was each
team’s No. 6 runner. Sierra’s No.
6 placed 15th, while Kimball’s
No. 6, junior Ashley Tunquist,
placed 31st (27:19.3).
Steffens said that her team
went into Wednesday’s compe-
tition with the goal of getting
stronger as a team.
“Today was the championship,
so we were all trying to push
each other to do our best. That’s
all we can ever do,” she said.
“I think we all felt better than

Press staff report
Tracy High’s tennis team secured
a place in the Sac-Joaquin Section

straight sets.
Tracy finished the Tri-City

WATER POLO
West beats Tracy in crosstown games Bulldogs finish at
By Bob Brownne
Tracy Press
The West and Tracy
water polo teams faced off
in their second Tri-City
Athletic League matchup
of the season Tuesday at
West High, with the Wolf
Pack beating the Bulldogs
in both the boys and girls
varsity matches.
Both West teams ended
the TCAL season with
two wins and eight losses.
Tracy’s teams went 0-10
in the TCAL.
Varsity girls: West 8, Tracy 6
West’s girls beat Tracy
for the second time this
year, showing progress for
a team that went winless
in league play last year.
“I think it’s great for
the team, just how they’ve
always been our crosstown
rival, and when it comes to
our league, West High just
wants to achieve that,” said
West sophomore Natalie
Mangskau. “We worked
hard this season. We have
really great players and
we made smart moves
throughout the game, so I
think it was pretty good.”
Senior Ashley
Christopher said that beat-
ing Tracy was one of her
team’s goals for the year.
“Having that accom-
plishment is the great-
est feeling. Last year we
didn’t have enough people.
We didn’t have enough to
sub in,” she said. “Now
we have the numbers, and
having all of those girls
with us, that’s what made
the difference. Having the
team playing as one unit
and playing like sisters.”
The Wolf Pack and
Bulldogs played an even
match through the first
half. Tracy had two goals
by sophomore Samantha
Lieberg in the first quarter
and one from sophomore
Samantha Bowman in the
second. West sophomore
Caitlin O’Neill scored a goal
in the first quarter and then
scored again in the second
on a pass from Mangskau,
and Mangskau scored with
an assist from O’Neill to
make it a 3-3 tie at the half.
Bowman scored at the
start of the third quarter
to put Tracy ahead. West
took a 5-4 lead at the end
of the third quarter when
Christopher kept up her
attacks from the right side
and scored two goals.
O’Neill scored two more
early in the fourth, one on
top of TCAL; Pack
gains playoff spot
a pass from junior Clare
Lawlor and another with
an assist from Mangskau.
Mangskau scored on
a long shot up the mid-
dle late in the fourth,
and Tracy senior Kendal
Oetken scored two goals
in the final two minutes to
cut West’s lead to 8-6.
Tracy senior goalie Kayla
McCarthy had 11 blocks,
and sophomore goalie
Ariana Graziano had two
second-half saves. West
sophomore goalie Ashlyn
Cannon had 10 saves.
Varsity boys: West 13, Tracy 9
West seniors Ryan Ma
and Salvatore Incorvaia
turned out to be the Wolf
Pack’s big advantage
Tuesday in their second
win of the season over the
Tracy High Bulldogs.
“I believe in my team,
that we could secure
another win today,” Ma
said, adding that commu-
nication and teamwork
came together.
Ma scored four of
West’s first-half goals as
the Pack took a 6-5 lead,
with Incorvaia and junior
Marx John Pena scoring
one each. Tracy kept it
close with senior Matt
Nunes’ two goals and a
goal each by seniors Blake
Eubanks, Jack Crowley
and Tommy Shaddix.
Ma and Incorvaia scored
in the third quarter to put
West up 8-5, and Tracy
tied it up 8-8 with a goal
from Eubanks and two
more from Nunes, one
with an assist from junior
Vince Tejidor.
West opened the fourth
quarter with Incorvaia
attacking the Tracy goal
from the right side, scor-
ing three goals in the first
two minutes of the quarter.
Junior Kristian Ibale scored
one for West and Incorvaia
skipped in another shot
from the right, and Tracy
scored in the last minute
when Crowley made a shot
on an assist from Shaddix.
Incorvaia said the win
was a great way to close
out his senior year of
water polo.
“I know a bunch of (the
Tracy players). They’re
really good friends of
ours. Some of them are
really fast swimmers, so I
went into the fourth quar-
ter having to sprint,” he
said. “We’ve beaten them
before, so my confidence
level was high, but you
don’t want to get too cocky.
I like to be level-headed
before the game.
“It’s going to be a good

The Jaguars secured
their second-place stand-

off spot — with a 7-5 win
at Ripon High on Tuesday.
After the teams played
a scoreless first quarter,
Kimball held a slim lead
until the end.
Sophomore Olivia Taylor
led the Kimball offense with
three goals and freshman
Jill Lucero scored two goals.
Senior Keiana Fountaine
and sophomore Ella Bernal

VOLLEYBALL
By Bob Brownne
Tracy Press
Tuesday night’s cross-
town volleyball match
was one of those rare
occasions when, at the
end, both teams let out a
yell of triumph.
With Tracy’s 3-0 win
at West High’s Steve
Thornton Gymnasium,
the Bulldogs (30-9, 8-2
Tri-City Athletic League)
claimed a share of first
place in the TCAL
along with St. Mary’s
of Stockton (24-11, 8-2
TCAL). Even though
West (28-10, 6-4 TCAL)
lost its last league match,
the Wolf Pack will still be
making its first trip to
the Sac-Joaquin Section
playoffs in four years.
Tracy has the top seed
from the TCAL going into
the SJS playoffs thanks
to its 3-0 win over St.
Mary’s on Oct. 17 — a
better margin of victory
than in its 3-1 loss to St.
Mary’s on Sept. 28.
The West team cele-
brated upon finding out
that St. Mary’s had beat-
en Lincoln 3-1 on Tuesday
night, which worked to
West’s advantage. West
finished league play tied
with Lincoln (23-8, 6-4
TCAL) for third place,
and because the Wolf
Pack beat the Trojans
twice — 3-2 on Sept. 21
and 3-0 on Oct. 10 — it
gets the No. 3 seed from
the TCAL.
West is returning to
the playoffs for the first
time since 2013, before
the league realignment
that shifted Lincoln and
Tracy into the TCAL.
Tracy senior setter
Karina Rodriguez said
that finishing at the top
of the league was a relief,
considering the prece-
dent the team set in 2016
by winning the TCAL
title outright and extend-
ing its season into the
California Interscholastic
Federation state tourna-
ment.
“Especially after last
year, we did so well our
whole season, so there’s
a lot of pressure going
SPORTS. | 27
into playoffs,” she said.
“At the same time, it
was undetermined if we
were going to playoffs,
so we’re going in humble,
focused and ready to go.”
Tracy senior Lindsay
Price added that her
team wouldn’t settle
for less.
“It means a lot. Just,
as a senior, I want to
continue my season. I
don’t want to end here,”
she said. “There’s always
more to go for. I just
want to go along and
keep the family going, to
not break the bond with
my sisters yet.”
West senior Kathlin
Martinez has played for
the Wolf Pack varsity
team since her freshman
year and saw her team
finish in fourth place, just
shy of the playoffs, year
after year.
“It was building the
fundamentals to get
where we are now, and
we have a strong enough
team this year where we
can build and build and
just get better,” she said.
“I think our expectations
have risen, because no
one had gone to playoffs
on this team, and we’ve
really wanted this for a
long time. Everyone says
that we’re that team.”
Tracy won Tuesday’s
match 25-19, 25-13, 29-27.
West freshman Lauren
Toon helped her team
start with an early lead
with a series of service
points, including two
aces, but Tracy worked
its way back and took
the lead with senior
Samantha Brown at the
service line and freshman
Natalie Laiolo and senior
Jacqueline Yost attack-
ing successfully at the
net. West senior Kathlin
Martinez scored four kills
in a row to keep the Pack
competitive. Tracy senior
Karina Rodriguez came
to the line at the end, and
with support from Laiolo
and junior Cassie Corbett
at the net, the Bulldogs
finished with the win.

Tracy teen competes with karate global elite
By Bob Brownne
Tracy Press
This weekend, one of Zachary
Gaona’s longtime goals is com-
ing to fruition.
The 16-year-old Kimball High
junior has the ultimate goal of
competing in karate at the 2020
Olympics in Tokyo, but first he will
prove his abili-
ties in his first

Tracy led the entire way
through the second set and took
a big lead in the third set with
Rodriguez at the service line for
a string of nine points, with kills
by Laiolo, Corbett and sopho-
more Briahna Garcia. West got
back into the game with kill shots
by Martinez, junior Shkhinah
Tindsley and seniors Samantha
Duncan and Erika Ayo.
After West turned a 13-4 deficit
into an 18-18 tie, the game went
back and forth until Corbett’s kill
shot for the 29-27 win.
Duncan said she expected
West’s ability to come back and
make the third set competitive
to show up in playoffs.
“I was feeling every emotion
there was, honestly,” she said. “I
was scared, I was excited, I was
everything. It was intense, and
you could really feel that on the
court. Everyone was just crazy.”
Martinez finished the night
with 18 kills for West. Tindsley
had nine kills, and junior Vanna
Marquez had 33 assists.
Tracy’s Corbett scored 18
kills, Laiolo had 11 kills and 14
assists, Brown had 22 digs, and
Rodriguez had 17 assists.
West won the sophomore
match 26-24, 27-25, and Tracy
won the freshman match 26-24,
21-25, 15-5.
Kimball 3, Weston Ranch 0
The Jaguars won their last
match of the season, 3-0 at
and precise demonstrations of
karate strikes and blocks.
“The last couple of weeks
have been all mental, getting
our minds prepared for what
it’s going to be like,” Zachary
said last week before he left
for Europe. They landed in
Switzerland first and then flew
to the Canary Islands for a day
of sightseeing before getting into
practice for this weekend’s event.
“At our dojo, we set up our mats
the way it’s going to be set up at
the world championships, so we
can picture ourselves there, so
we can get everything right.”
The trio most recently com-
peted at the Pan American
U21 Juniors & Cades Karate
Championships in late August
in Buenos Aires, Argentina,
where they made it to the sec-
ond round in their bracket
before they were eliminated.
This will be the first time
Zachary and his teammates have
been to the WKF championships.
Zachary tried to qualify as soon
as he was eligible two years ago,
but he came in third at the USA
Karate National Championships
and Team Trials that year. Only
the first-place individuals and
teams go to the WKF world
championships, and this year,
home over Weston Ranch on
Wednesday.
Kimball (14-15, 7-7 Valley Oak
League) finished in fifth place
in the league and Weston Ranch
(12-14, 4-10 VOL) in sixth.
Senior Yasmin Nijjar led
the way with seven kills, three
blocks and three aces. Senior
Lauren Hicks had five kills and
three blocks, and seniors Jaclyn
Alimboyoguen and Lindsey
Smollack scored five kills each.
Senior Emily Nunes scored four
serving aces and had 19 assists,
and freshman Rein Bocage had
three kills and 14 digs.
Kimball won the sophomore
match 25-7, 25-19 and the fresh-
man match 25-9, 25-20, 25-13.
Manteca 3, Kimball 0
The Manteca Buffaloes
affirmed their first-place standing
in the Valley Oak League with a
3-0 win over Kimball on Monday.
Manteca (21-8, 12-1 VOL) swept
the Jaguars 28-26, 25-17, 25-21.
Senior Yasmin Nijjar led the
Jaguars with five kills, six blocks
and three aces; freshman Rein
Bocage had four kills and 20 digs;
senior Lauren Hicks scored four
kills and three blocks; and senior
Emily Nunes had seven assists.
Kimball won the sopho-
more match 25-17, 25-20, and
Manteca won the freshman
match 25-16, 25-9.
Tracy 3, Lincoln 1
The Bulldogs claimed a share
of first place in the Tri-City
Zachary, Ian and Justin won their
event at the USA Karate champi-
onships in June in South Carolina.
Since then, they’ve had their
minds on nothing but the WKF
world championships.
“The competition level is
amazing,” he said, adding that
the Pan Am event in August
was just a sample of a much
bigger competition this week.
The WKF World
Championships draws people
from around the world. Zachary
expects the Japanese team will
be the toughest competitors.
“Japan is the founder of our
sport, and they are the perfec-
tionists of it,” he said. “What we
try to do is either make it look like
how they practice karate and use
it against them and do it better.”
Now Zachary’s goal is to live
up to the opportunity to com-
pete among the global elite.
“I really am appreciative that
me and my teammates get this
opportunity because I know …
we’re lucky to have this, espe-
cially in my situation, putting
my team through this because I
live so far from them,” he said.
“It’s hard but it’s all worth it.

the kickoff before they fumbled it
away. Three plays later, Arreola
scored on a 37-yard run up the left
side and cut their lead to 26-24.
Mountain House answered
with a six-play, 65-yard drive,
including a 3-yard touchdown
run by Sutherland, and Hughson
came right back and scored on
Arreola’s 25-yard run. Hughson
quarterback Josh Megee com-
pleted a two-point conversion
pass to Damien Contreras to tie
the game at 32-32.
The Mustangs closed in on the
end zone in the final half-minute
of regulation but were denied the
score when Hughson senior Noah
Huffman intercepted Fontenot’s
pass on the 5-yard line. With 14
seconds left on the clock, the
Mustang defense swarmed over
Megee in the end zone, which
would have ended the game with
Mountain House scoring a safety,
but officials ruled that Megee
had released the ball, making it
an incomplete pass.
The Mustangs got the ball
first in overtime. Officials put
the ball on the 10-yard line, and
the Hughson defense pushed the
Mustangs back to the 18-yard line.
As soon as Hughson got the
ball, Arreola took it to the left
side and ran the ball in for the
winning touchdown.
Mountain House had a total of
407 yards of offense, including
315 yards rushing. Fontenot com-
pleted 4 of 9 passes for 92 yards.
Senior Annakin Zimmerman was
2 for 4 on point-after kicks, and
the Mustangs had one failed two-
point conversion attempt.
The Huskies covered 280
yards of offense, with Arreola
rushing for 106 yards on 15 car-
ries and Megee passing for 116
yards on 17 of 27 passes, 10 of
them to Contreras for 102 yards.
McCloskey said the loss was
discouraging, especially because
it was the fourth loss in a row for
the Mustangs and the last home
game for the team’s seniors. They
go to Hilmar this week and finish
on the road against league leader
Modesto Christian next week.
“At this rate, I highly doubt we’ll
make playoffs,” the coach said.
“That is our goal, but our goal
tonight was to take the seniors
out after four years here, starting
out with me as freshmen on that
JV team that first year. The goal
tonight was to take them out with
a victory on our home field, and
obviously that didn’t happen.”
Hughson won the junior var-
sity game 42-6, with Timothy
Cantu passing to Austin Jordan
for a 60-yard touchdown. The
Mountain House JV team is
now 1-6-1 overall, 0-3 against
TVL opponents.
St. Mary’s 42, Tracy 14
The St. Mary’s Rams (6-2, 3-0
Tri-City Athletic League) broke
an early 7-7 tie with the Tracy
High Bulldogs (5-3, 2-1 TCAL)
as the Rams scored two sec-
ond-quarter touchdowns and a
FRIDAY, OCT. 27, 2017
touchdown in the third on the
way to a 42-14 win on Friday in
Stockton.
Tracy sophomore quarter-
back Logan Fife completed a
pass to senior Carlos Vasquez
for a 20-yard touchdown, Tracy’s
first score, and the Bulldogs
scored again midway through
the third quarter when Fife
connected with senior Xavier
Moore for a 37-yard touchdown.
The Rams ran in one more
touchdown in the third quar-
ter and scored on a touchdown
pass in the fourth.
St. Mary’s won the sophomore
game 22-21, putting Tracy at 5-3
overall, 2-1 in TCAL play. Tracy’s
freshmen (4-4, 3-0 TCAL) beat St.
Mary’s 28-0 with two touchdowns
by Tommy Chavez and one touch-
down each by Gabe Andora and
Alejandro Delatorre.
Lodi 26, West 14
The Lodi Flames shut out West
(1-7, 0-3 TCAL) through the first
three quarters of Friday’s game
at Steve Lopez Stadium.
Lodi (4-4, 1-2 TCAL)  was up
26-0 before West scored. Senior
quarterback Yannick Reffell
threw two touchdown passes
for West in the fourth quarter,
connecting with senior Eric
Robertson for a 75-yard touch-
down and completing a 10-yard
pass to Ezequiel Prado.
West’s sophomores (2-6, 0-3
TCAL) beat Lodi 7-6 on Friday.
Oakdale 42, Kimball 0
The Oakdale Mustangs (7-1,
5-0 Valley Oak League) took a
21-0 halftime lead Friday at Don
Nicholson Stadium on the way
to a 42-0 win over the Kimball
Jaguars (1-7, 1-4 VOL).
Oakdale won the junior varsity
game, 34-21. Mason Salazar ran in
all three of Kimball’s touchdowns,
and Hashmat Waseem made all
three point-after kicks. Kimball’s
JV stands at 3-5, 2-3 VOL.
Stone Ridge Christian 38,
Millennium 18
The Stone Ridge Christian
Knights held the Millennium
Falcons (2-6, 1-2 Central California
Athletic Alliance) scoreless
through the first half of Friday’s
game, winning 38-18 at Castle Air
Force Base in Atwater.
The Knights (8-1, 4-0 CCAA)
were up 24-0 at the half. The
Falcons got on the scoreboard
in the third quarter when fresh-
man quarterback Caden Duke
passed to senior Josiah Johnson
for a 63-yard touchdown.
Stone Ridge Christian scored
twice more to take a 38-6 lead,
and Millennium responded with
two fourth-quarter touchdowns
— a 32-yard run by junior Isaiah
Woods and a 30-yard run by
senior Elijah Tate.
The Falcons totaled 188 yards
rushing, including Woods’  128
yards on 15 carries. Duke and
junior quarterback Jajuan Tucker
combined for 91 yards passing.

TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are
considering bidding on this proper-
ty 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 en-
title 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 out-
standing 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 lend-
er may hold more than one mortgage
or deed of trust on the property. NO-
TICE 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

Notice of Intent to Adopt a
Mitigated Negative Declaration/
Initial Study for the
Alvarez Annexation Project
Lead Agency: City of Tracy
Department of Development
Services
333 Civic Center Plaza
Tracy, CA 95376
Project Title: Alvarez Annexation
Project Location: The Project site
consists of 9.1 acres, located in un-
incorporated San Joaquin County,
along Interstate 205 (I-205) adjacent
to the northern portion of the City of
Tracy. The Project site includes two
APNs: 212-170-34 and 212-170-33.
In addition, the Project site contains
an area to the south of the two APNs,
within I-205 right-of-way and the
fronting segment (approximately
660 feet long) of the Larch Road pub-
lic right-ofway.
Project Description: The Project site
is located within unincorporated San
Joaquin County, within Tracy’s Sphere
of Influence (SOI), adjacent to the cur-
rent City limits. The proposed Project
would annex the 9.1-acre Project site
into the City of Tracy. In addition, as
part of the annexation process, the
proposed Project would provide the
Project site pre-zoning. The zoning
for the Project site would be a new
zone classification, the Community
Recreation Support Services (CRS)
Zone.
There is no specific development
proposed as part of the proposed
Project. The proposed project con-
sists of three actions: 1) annexation
of the site into the Tracy City Limits,
2) pre-zoning the site to Community
Recreation Support Services, and
3) amending the Tracy Zoning Or-
dinance to include the Community
Recreation Support Services (CRS)
Zone. It is noted that the zoning code
amendment would not rezone any
other parcels within the City of Tracy.
Future utilities serving the project
site would be provided by the City of
Tracy, via the extension of existing
nearby water, storm drain, and sewer
lines. Police and Fire services would
also be provided by the City of Tra-
cy. Given that the Project site would
be used for commercial uses, based
upon the floor-area-ratio (FAR) of 1.0
for commercial uses as provided in
5 Legals
the Tracy General Plan (pg. 2-24), the
proposed Project has the potential to
develop up to 396,396 square feet of
commercial uses, consistent with the
uses allowed under the proposed
CRS zone.
Findings/Determination: The City
has reviewed and considered the
proposed project and has deter-
mined that the project will not have a
significant effect on the environment,
with substantial supporting evidence
provided in the Initial Study. The City
hereby prepares and proposes to
adopt a Mitigated Negative Declara-
tion for this project.
Public Review Period: A 30-day
public review period for the Mitigat-
ed Negative Declaration/ Initial Study
will commence on October 17, 2017
and will end on November 17, 2017
for interested individuals and public
agencies to submit written com-
ments on the document. Any written
comments on the Initial Study/Mit-
igated Negative Declaration should
be sent to the attention of Alan Bell,
Senior Planner, and must be received
at the City of Tracy Department of
Development Services by 5:00 PM on
November 17, 2017. The project file
and copies of the Mitigated Negative
Declaration/Initial Study are avail-
able for review at City of Tracy at the
address listed above. The Mitigated
Negative Declaration/Initial Study is
also available at the Tracy Branch Li-
brary or on the City’s website:
http://www.ci.tracy.
ca.us/?navid=595. If you have any
questions regarding the City’s review
of the proposed annexation, please
contact Alan Bell, Senior Planner,
alan.bell@cityoftracy.org or (209)
831-6426.

Notice of Intent to Adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration / Initial Study
for the Corral Hollow Road Widening, CIP 73144
October 26, 2017
Lead Agency: City of Tracy, Department of Utilities, 3900 Holly Drive, Tracy, CA
Project Title: Corral Hollow Road Widening, CIP 73144
Project Location: Along Corral Hollow Road between West Schulte Road and
West Linne Road, City of Tracy, California.
Project Description: The City of Tracy proposes to reconstruct and widen an
approximately 2-mile segment of Corral Hollow Road from two lanes to four
lanes. Corral Hollow Road, including the approximately two-mile long portion
to be widened, is a north-south roadway located in the central portion of the
City. From north to south the project: (1) includes West Schulte Road; (2) crosses
the Union Pacific Rail Road right-of-way (tracks) and continues past Parkside
Drive, Mountain View Road, Midway Drive, Starflower Drive, Kagehiro Drive; (3)
crosses the Main Canal/Upper Main Canal (West Side Irrigation District); and,
(4) and continues south past Valpico Road, Peony Drive, and Middlefield Drive.
The alignment then crosses a second Union Pacific Rail Road track right-of-way
(tracks) to terminate just south of the West Linne Road intersection.
The Corral Hollow Road Plan Line Study indicates the proposed right of way
dimensions and affected APNs for the project. The proposed right of way width
varies from 88 feet (minimum) to about 109 feet in width. The proposed project
extends from Plan Line Station 1+00 to Station 104+50 of the Corral Hollow
Road Plan Line Study (see IS/MND Attachment 2, Sheets 1 through 8), as adopt-
ed by the City Council in November 2016.
The proposed project includes modification of intersections at Valpico Road
and West Linne Road. Traffic signals are to be installed, at such future time as
signals are needed, at Parkside Drive, Valpico Road, and West Linne Road. The
existing signalized intersections at Starflower Drive, Ellis Town Drive/Peony
Drive and Middlefield Drive will be modified, as required. Wider cross-sections
(than 88-feet) will be provided along certain portions of the roadway, based on
using existing conditions such as the existing sidewalks and other area features.
When the planned arterial roadway is fully built, modifications will include
construction of curb, gutter, wheel chair ramps, continuous sidewalks, bicycle
facilities, streetlights, landscaping, traffic marking and striping. The project will
also accommodate storm drainage improvements to allow future connection
with the City’s planned Detention Pond 3A.
Due to existing development in the project area, the proposed Corral Hollow
Road design is expected to use a minimum 88-foot wide right of way. The 88-
foot wide right of way would provide two travel lanes (11-foot each) in each
direction (north and south); an 8-foot wide safety/service lane; and 5 to 10-foot
sidewalks. Between the travel lanes would be located a14-foot wide center me-
dian/left turn pocket area that may be raised or striped.
To accommodate the arterial roadway as planned, additional road right of way
is needed. Additional right of way averaging about 14 feet in width, and rang-
ing from 7.5 feet to 35 feet in width, would be purchased from approximately
54 adjoining residents, churches, developers and other property owners. Tem-
porary construction easements and long-term public utility easements will also
be acquired from each property owner, as needed.
IS/MND: An Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) has been
prepared outlining the project environmental impacts and mitigation mea-
sures to reduce identified impacts to less than significant levels for protection
of the environment. Mitigation measures are incorporated for the following
environmental topics: aesthetics; air resources/greenhouse gas emissions; bi-
ological resources/land use; cultural resources; geology/soils/ hydrology/water
quality, and utility systems; hazards/traffic, noise and transportation.
Determination: The City has reviewed and considered the proposed project
and has determined that the project will not have a significant effect on the en-
vironment, with substantial supporting evidence provided in the Initial Study,
and implementation of project mitigation measures. The City hereby prepares
and proposes to adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration for this project.
Public Review: A 30-day public review period for the Mitigated Negative
Declaration/ Initial Study will commence on October 27, 2017 and will end
on November 30, 2017 for interested individuals and public agencies to sub-
mit written comments on the document. Any written comments on the Ini-
tial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration should be sent to the attention of
Kuldeep Sharma, Director of Utilities and must be received at the City of Tracy,
Utility Department, 3900 Holly Drive, Tracy, CA 95304 by 5:00 PM on November
30, 2017. The project file and copies of the Mitigated Negative Declaration/Ini-
tial Study are available for review at the City of Tracy at the address listed above
and on the City’s website at http://www.ci.tracy.ca.us/?navid=450#7277.
Public Hearing: A public hearing to consider project approval and adopt the
Mitigated Negative Declaration is tentatively scheduled before the City of Tracy
City Council on December 19, 2017 at 7:00 PM or as soon thereafter as possible,
in the City Council Chambers located at 333 Civic Center Plaza, Tracy, CA 95376.
All interested parties are invited to be present and to submit statements orally
or in writing before or during the meeting. Should you decide to challenge the
decision of the City Council you may be limited to those issues that were raised
for consideration at the hearing.
More Info Questions regarding the City of Tracy’s review of the project
or Draft Mitigated Negative Declaration may be directed to Ripon Bhatia, City
of Tracy Senior Engineer at the address above or at (209) 831-6338 or Ripon.

NOTICE-RESTRAINING ORDERS
These restraining orders are effective
against both spouses or domestic
partners until the petition is dis-
missed, a judgement is entered, or
the court makes further orders. They
are enforceable anywhere in Califor-
nia by any law enforcement officer
who has received or seen a copy of
them.
STANDARD FAMILY LAW RESTRAIN-
ING ORDERS
Starting Immediately, you and your
spouse or domestic partner are re-
strained from:
1. removing the minor children of the
of the parties from the state or apply-
ing for a new replacement passport
for those minor children without the
prior written consent of the other
party or an order of the court;
2. cashing, borrowing, against, can-
celing, transferring, disposing of, or
changing beneficiaries of any insur-
ance or other coverage, including life,
health, automobile, and disability,
held for the benefit of the parties and
their minor children;
3. transferring, encumbering, hy-
pothecating, concealing, or in any
way disposing of any property, real or
personal, whether community, qua-
si-community, or separate, without
written consent of the other party or
an order of the court, except in the
usual course of business or for the
necessities of life; and
4. creating a nonprobate transfer or
modifying a nonprobate transfer that
affects the disposition of property
subject to the transfer, without the
written consent of the other party
or an order of the court. Before revo-
cation of a nonprobate transfer can
take effect or a right of survivorship
to property can be eliminated, no-
5
tice of the change must be filed and
served on the other party.
You must notify each other of any
proposed extraordinary expendeni-
tures at least five business days prior
to incurring these extraordinary ex-
penditures and account to the court
for all extraordinary expenditures
made after these restraining orders
are effective. However you may use
community property, quasi -commu-
nity property, or your own separate
property to pay an attorney to help
you or to pay court costs.
WARNING-IMPORTANT INFORMA-
TION
California Law Provided that , for
purposes of division of property
upon dissolution of a marriage or
domestic partnership or upon legal
separation, property acquired by the
parties during marriage or domestic
partnership in joint form is presumed
to be community property. If either
party to this action should die before
the jointly held community property
is divided, the language in the deed
that characterizes how title is held
( i.e. joint tenancy, tenants in com-
mon, or community property) will be
controlling, and not the community
property presumption. You should
consult your attorney if you want the
community property presumption to
be written into the recorded title to
the property.
