Express lanes governance takes shape

Transportation officials deciding on joint powers authority to decide over traffic toll revenue
By Zachary Clark
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
After the Express Lanes project
broke ground in San Mateo
County last month, local officials
have all but determined a gover-
nance structure for the new tolling
facility coming to Highway 101.
A joint powers authority is one
vote away from becoming official
and that body will decide how toll
revenue — expected to be between
$10 million and $20 million — is
spent. It will also have the author-
ity to implement an equity pro-
gram offering discounts to low-
income motorists, among other
responsibilities.
The JPA board will have six
members, including three mem-
bers from the City/County
Association of Governments and
three from the San Mateo County
Transportation Authority. The
board members currently are
Redwood City Councilwoman
Alicia Aguirre, San Mateo Mayor
Diane Papan, Belmont
Councilman Doug Kim, county
Supervisor Don Horsley,
Burlingame Vice Mayor Emily
Beach and San Mateo
Councilwoman Maureen Freschet.
“People expected an odd number
of board members, but they wanted
to continue the spirit of collabora-
tion and make decisions based on
consensus,” said C/CAG executive
director Sandy Wong.
The JPA will serve as the owner
of the tolling facility while the

THE DAILY JOURNAL
The Blues brought cheers to San Mateo
S
an Mateo once had a baseball team
called the Blues, which was consis-
tently ranked among the top semi-
pro teams in Northern California.
Fitzgerald Field at San Mateo Central Park
off El Camino Real is named for the manag-
er of the Blues, which, in its formative
years more than a century ago, played on a
diamond at what is now the Martin Luther
King Center, a popular recreation hub that
recently celebrated its 50th anniversary.
The Blues were an amateur team, spon-
sored by a newspaper called the San Mateo
News Leadership when they debuted at the
MLK Center site north of downtown in
1898, a time when just about every
Peninsula city fielded a baseball squad.
Historian Alan Hynding wrote in “From
Frontier to Suburb” that “town clubs from
Redwood City, San Mateo, Half Moon Bay,
and later South City, competed against each
other.” It should be noted that recreational
opportunities were limited at a time when
people worked upwards to 60 hours a week,
so baseball was a big draw.
The Blues moved to Central Park when it
opened in 1922, becoming the first munici-
pal park in San Mateo County. In 1924, the
Blues took a step up and joined the semi-pro
California State League, a circuit that
included the Modesto Reds and Santa Cruz
Padres.
The Blues took the league crown several
times in the 1920s and 1930s. In 1927, the
team had a record of 29 wins, 3 losses. One
year the Blues came close to beating the San
Francisco Seals of the Pacific Coast League.
The San Francisco team won 3-2, but the
LOCAL
The San Mateo Blues played at Central Park, where a ball field sports the name of its successful
manager, Justin Fitzgerald.
Blues outhit the Seals 8-3.
The dynamo behind the Blues’ success was
Justin Fitzgerald, a native of San Mateo
who played for Santa Clara University
before becoming a fielder with such major
league teams as the New York Yankees and
the Philadelphia Phillies. Early in his career
in the big leagues, however, he suffered an
arm injury that made it difficult to throw the
ball as far and as fast as needed. Fitzgerald
was still a good hitter, which he proved
when he moved to the Pacific Coast League
where he played with Portland and later San
Francisco, spending eight successful sea-
sons with the Seals.
According to Mitch Postel’s “History of
San Mateo,” the Seals’ home field was ideal
for him because its short right field fence
meant shorter throws. “His weak arm was
much less a detriment, and his hitting con-
tinued to be sharp,” Postel wrote. In 1916,
Fitzgerald won the PCL batting champi-
onship with a .316 average.
Fitzgerald managed the Blues from 1924
until 1935 when he returned to Santa Clara
University as coach. He also served as on
the San Mateo City Council from 1933-
1937. The Blues played at Central Park until
1941 when World War II halted a time out.
Play resumed in 1948 under manager Paul
Thiebaut and lasted until 1978 when the
team disbanded.
Fitzgerald died in 1945 from a stomach
disorder at the age of 52. After his death,
just about everyone started calling the
Central Park field Fitzgerald Field, which
became the official title in 1960. More than
a thousand people attended the field’s dedi-
cation Aug. 21, 1960. According to Postel,
San Mateo Times sports editor Harvey
Rockwell described Fitzgerald as “quiet, stu-
dious, gentlemanly and tolerant with a kind
sense of humor,” adding that his players
“felt a personal allegiance” to Fitzgerald.
Today, a plaque near the stadium entrance
honors Fitzgerald, recalling him as an
“inspiration to the youth of San Mateo.”

Patients file suit against Gilead for HIV treatment side effects
By Anna Schuessler
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Reporting chronic kidney diseases and major bone frac-
tures, more than 50 patients treated with human immunodefi-
ciency virus antiretroviral drugs filed a lawsuit against the
Foster City-based Gilead Sciences this month with claims the
biopharmaceutical company put profits before patient safety
in the marketing and availability of drugs expected to stem
the spread of a life-threatening disease.
As consumers of the prescription drugs Viread, Truvada,
Atripla, Complera and Stribild, the more than 50 individuals
listed as plaintiffs in the suit were exposed to significant
safety risks to patients’ bones and kidneys that studies have
shown accompany treatment with drugs containing tenofovir
disoproxil fumarate, or TDF, according to the suit filed April
10 in San Mateo County Superior Court.
With knowledge of those risks when it began selling its
first TDF drug, Viread, in 2001, Gilead falsely promoted it as
the “miracle drug” and downplayed the toxicity associated
with it, alleged Jack Rutherford, the attorney representing
the plaintiffs in the suit. And by withholding the release of a
safer alternative HIV antiretroviral medication, drugs con-
taining tenofovir alafenamide fumarate (TAF), Rutherford
believes the company exposed patients taking the TDF drugs
to some 10 extra years of toxicity to their bones and kidneys
in an effort to extend the life of its patents for the drugs.
“They had two options available and for business purpos-
es, in order to make more money, they essentially went with
the less safe, less effective version,” he said.
In an emailed statement, Gilead emphasized it prioritizes
patient safety and expressed an intent to fight the claims in
the lawsuit, which it believes is without merit.
Though doctors have acknowledged kidney impairments
South City police fire at car
fleeing burglary; three arrested
At least one South San Francisco police officer shot at
three suspects inside a truck that rammed a police patrol vehi-
cle while attempting to flee from the scene of an attempted
burglary early Sunday morning, according to police.
Three men were arrested — one after a brief pursuit that
stretched into Brisbane city streets — around 1:10 a.m. at the
Genesis Towers at 1 Tower Place, Sgt. Ken Chetcuti said.
A private security company reported that the three suspects
— two from Oakland and another from San Leandro — were
attempting to break-in to a secured storage space inside a

and other conditions are among antiretroviral regimens’ side
effects, Rutherford said research shows TDF drugs are associ-
ated with a much higher incidence rate and severity of side
effects, ranging from acute kidney failure and cancer to
osteoporosis.
According to the suit, both TDF drugs and TAF drugs,
which are taken orally, are versions of the parent drug teno-
fovir, which is a drug that can be absorbed into a cell and pre-
vent the process by which the HIV virus spreads. Rutherford
said that because TDF drugs metabolize immediately, some
of the drug is activated by cells where HIV is occurring while
some of it remains in the gastrointestinal tract, liver and
blood, where it can end up having a toxic effect on the body.
Since TAF drugs only metabolize when they have been
absorbed by cells affected by HIV, they do not affect other
organs and a fraction of the average TDF dose is required of
TAF drugs, he said.
Rutherford said Gilead developed both drugs at around the
same time and had done studies showing relatively high
doses of TDF drugs would be needed at a greater risk of toxic
effects for patients, while TAF drugs were proven to target
the HIV-affected cells in one’s body and were less likely to
accumulate in the kidneys than TDF.
But he is alleging Gilead made a calculating decision to
obtain patents for TDF drugs first and withhold putting TAF
drugs on the market so the company could extend the life of
its patents and attempt to dominate the market share for anti-
retroviral treatments. By patenting TDF drugs first and put-
ting the development of TAF drugs on hold for a few years,
argued Rutherford, the company ensured it could maximize
the period of exclusivity during which it could produce and
sell the drugs without competition.
By filing for patents for TAF drugs years after Gilead start-
ed developing them and discovering they were safer and

According to Chetcuti, officers arrived to find the suspects
attempting to break-in, and the suspects then tried to flee in
a Dodge Ram pick-up. The driver then rammed the patrol
vehicle, and Chetcuti said in fear for their life, at least one
officer fired shots at the driver.
Two of the suspects then fled from the pickup and were
arrested at the scene. The driver was arrested after a short
vehicle and subsequent foot pursuit.

more effective than TDF drugs, the company could further
increase its profits by marketing the new drugs to patients
and physicians as safer and more effective drugs as compared
to TDF drugs, noted Rutherford.
Though Gilead’s TDF drugs and TAF drugs were approved
by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Rutherford
alleged the company had a duty by the law to produce a safer
drug if they have the knowledge to do so. He said the com-
pany was responsible for presenting a better drug before it
sought FDA approval.
“Regulatory approval is, I think, a floor, absolutely not a
ceiling,” he said. “If you know how to make it safer, the law
tells you you have a duty to make it safer.”
In the company statement, Gilead affirmed its commit-
ment to developing and improving upon therapies that
address unmet needs for people living with HIV for nearly
three decades.
“Ongoing collaboration with, and input from, the medical
and advocacy communities have always played a key role in
helping inform our development programs and decisions.
Patient safety is of foremost importance to us,” according to
company statement.
Rutherford expected the suit to include more plaintiffs as
the case proceeds, and said he hopes the effort to hold Gilead
accountable will demonstrate what can happen when pharma-
ceutical companies are not held to the standard of creating the
safest and most effective drugs possible. He noted open-
ended questions as to what level of accountability these com-
panies should be held and how much consumers should rely
on FDA approvals has persisted over time, and hoped the suit
could help answer these questions.
“They could have avoided these injuries that, in most
cases, are permanent,” he said. “I think we need to set a bet-
ter standard for pharmaceutical companies.”
Mateo County District Attorney's Office are investigating
the shooting. He added that it still being determined if more
than one officer fired shots or if any of the suspects were
struck by gunfire. One officer was transported to a hospital
with minor injuries and released.
The suspects — all arrested on suspicion of burglary, con-
spiracy and attempted murder on a police officer — were also
transported a hospital for treatment.
The two suspects from Oakland have been identified as 25-
year-old Kevin Lewis and 28-year-old Paul Mack. The San
Leandro suspect was identified as 23-year-old Rhyon Griffin.
All three will be transported to the San Mateo County Jail
once they are released from the hospital.

Paris Easter Mass honors firefighters
who fought blaze to save Notre Dame
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PARIS — The archbishop of Paris and
Catholics from around France and the world
honored the firefighters who saved Notre
Dame Cathedral, praying Sunday at a special
Easter Mass for a swift reconstruction of the
beloved monument.
Some streets around the medieval cathe-
dral also reopened six days after the blaze,
allowing tourists to get a closer look and
local restaurants to reopen, after firefight-
ers declared the last hot points extin-
guished. Notre Dame itself is expected to
remain closed for years.
The blaze that engulfed the cathedral on
Monday night forced parish members and
visitors who hoped to worship at Notre
Dame on Easter to find other places to
attend services. The Paris diocese invited
them to join Sunday’s Mass at the grandiose
Saint-Eustache Church on the Right Bank of
the Seine River.
The firefighters, who struggled for nine
hours to contain flames that consumed

Notre Dame’s roof and collapsed its spire,
held a place of honor at the Saint-Eustache.
Police officers and a soldier guarded the
13th century church. Visitors stood in a
long line to have their bags checked before
they could enter.
Paris Archbishop Michel Aupetit handed
firefighters at the Easter Mass a book of
scriptures that was rescued from Notre
Dame.
“Your men were able to save many things
in the cathedral. But you also saved an item
that is precious for us,” Aupetit said. “It still
is a bit dirty, full of ashes and likely a bit
damaged by the fire. You saved it, and I
wanted to give it to you. It’s a very humble
way to thank you.” said.
He notably thanked fire service chaplain
Jean-Marc Fournier, who recovered from the
fire a chalice containing consecrated hosts
that for Catholics are the body of Christ.
Speaking of Jesus’ resurrection, Aupetit
told the congregation, “We, too, brothers
and sisters, we will rise again, just like our
cathedral will rise again.”

Nine Easter Sunday bomb attacks
claim more than 200 in Sri Lanka
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
COLOMBO, Sri Lanka — Nine bomb-
ings of churches, luxury hotels and other
sites on Easter Sunday killed more than
200 people and wounded hundreds more in
Sri Lanka’s deadliest violence since a dev-
astating civil war in the South Asian
island nation ended a decade ago.
Defense Minister Ruwan Wijewardena
described the blasts as a terrorist attack by
religious extremists, and police said 13
suspects were arrested, though there was
no immediate claim of responsibility.
Wijewardena said most of the bombings
were believed to have been suicide attacks.
The explosions — mostly in or around
Colombo, the capital — collapsed ceil-
ings and blew out windows, killing wor-
shippers and hotel guests in one scene
after another of smoke, soot, blood, bro-
ken glass, screams and wailing alarms.
Victims were carried out of blood-spattered
pews.
“People were being dragged out,” said
Bhanuka Harischandra, of Colombo, a 24-
year-old founder of a tech marketing com-
pany who was going to the Shangri-La
Hotel for a meeting when it was bombed.
“People didn’t know what was going on. It
was panic mode.”
He added: “There was blood everywhere.”
Most of those killed were Sri Lankans.
But the three bombed hotels and one of the
churches, St. Anthony’s Shrine, are fre-
quented by foreign tourists, and Sri

Lanka’s Foreign Ministry said the bodies
of at least 27 foreigners from a variety of
countries were recovered.
The U.S. said “several” Americans were
among the dead, while Britain, China,
Japan and Portugal said they, too, lost cit-
izens.
The Sri Lankan government imposed a
nationwide curfew from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m.
and blocked most social media including
Facebook and YouTube, saying it needed to
curtail the spread of false information and
ease tension in the country of about 21
million people.
Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe
said he feared the massacre could trigger
instability in Sri Lanka, and he vowed to
“vest all necessary powers with the
defense forces” to take action against
those responsible.
The Archbishop of Colombo, Cardinal
Malcolm Ranjith, called on Sri Lanka’s
government to “mercilessly” punish those
responsible “because only animals can
behave like that.”
Police spokesman Ruwan Gunasekara
said at least 207 people were killed and
450 wounded. He said police found a safe
house and a van used by the attackers.
The scale of the bloodshed recalled the
worst days of Sri Lanka’s 26-year civil
war, in which the Tamil Tigers, a rebel
group from the ethnic Tamil minority,
sought independence from the Buddhist-
majority country. The Tamils are Hindu,
Muslim and Christian.

Anti-charter school bills limit choice
Orange County Register
California’s charter-school move-
ment has made remarkable progress in
providing a quality education for some
of the state’s neediest students.
However, its long, successful journey
— sparked by landmark 1992 legisla-
tion that made it relatively easy to start
charter schools — has run into an exis-
tential threat that has rightly been
referred to as “Charter-mageddon” by
one news publication.
The Assembly Education Committee,
dominated by lawmakers who are allied
with the state’s teachers’ unions,
recently passed three union-backed
bills that would put the kibosh on the
continued growth of these alternative
schools. Their final passage is not a
certainty, but the California Teachers
Association is flexing its muscle after
November’s election shifted the politi-
cal tide in an anti-charter direction in a
variety of statewide and legislative
races.
In eight years as governor, Jerry
Brown, who helped found and raise
money for two Oakland-based charter
schools, was such a staunch supporter
of charters that legislative attacks on
them were non-starters. But his succes-
sor, Gov. Gavin Newsom, is more
Letters to the editor
California as a sanctuary
Editor,
What gives the governor and mayors
the right to say California is a sanctu-
ary city? I think registered voters of
California should vote on it. I do not
mind if they come here legally and
could support themselves; but, when
they come illegally the taxpayers have
to pay the way. We have people living
in their cars because they can’t afford
to pay the high cost of rent. We have
many homeless peoples on the streets
as well. California is one of the most
expense states to live in.

Parking problems were happily creat-

amenable to the union position — and
has already signed a law that would
impose new open-meetings require-
ments on charters. The new
Superintendent of Public Instruction
Tony Thurmond at a forum in March
suggested that education is not the
proper place for competition.
Meanwhile, union-friendly
Democrats expanded their numbers in
the Capitol, and this series of bills is
the latest evidence. They aren’t the
only legislative dangers charter
schools will face. There’s no sugarcoat-
ing it. These bills pose a serious danger
to the future of charters schools as a
meaningful educational option.
Assembly Bill 1505 would remove
the process by which charter schools
can appeal to the state Board of
Education if their application is denied
by a local school board or county board
of education. This would leave the deci-
sion in the hands of local school board
members who often are elected with the
help of teachers’ unions. Assembly Bill
1506 would cap the number of charter
schools as of Jan. 1, 2020. Assembly
Bill 1507 would stop charter schools
from opening new campuses outside of
the school districts where they received
employees and contractors fill those
spaces right at 8 a.m. Can’t say I
appreciate a $45 ticket on top of my
hair charge or for picking up my pre-
scription at Walgreens. Needless to
say, I’ve gone to other salons in San
Mateo and Belmont that offer free
parking. The parking enforcement
officer sits on car bumpers and waits
for the meter to run out; he waited 7
minutes and I timed him.
Perhaps the landlords that are hold-
ing out for the huge rents need to back
off and realize that they aren’t going
to get their properties rented at the
astronomical rates they expect. I
doubt that will happen, though. They
would rather keep it vacant.
I’d be happy to shop in Burlingame
and “keep the money in town,” but it
isn’t customer friendly at all. Neither
is the mix of salons and stores.

their original charter.
AB1505’s author complains the cur-
rent system “has led to unprecedented
growth of charter schools in
California.” The clear intent of all
these bills is to stop their growth and
leave parents with no alternative other
than their local public school.
Charters may be victims of their own
success. In some big, urban school dis-
tricts charter students account for 20
percent of the total student population.
Charters receive far less public money
per capita than traditional public
schools, but state education dollars fol-
low the student. The public school
establishment therefore views them as
an ongoing and growing threat. Unions
are upset that charter schools aren’t
required to be unionized. They don’t
want to reform their encrusted bureau-
cratic system. Yet to be more competi-
tive and successful, traditional public
schools must lose the inflexible, sen-
iority-based rules that enable large
numbers of “grossly ineffective” teach-
ers to remain in the classroom.
Hundreds of charter advocates showed
up at the five-hour Assembly hearing to
voice their concerns. We hope that
other lawmakers and the new governor
are listening — and realize that gutting
the state’s charter law will hurt
California’s poorest residents the most.

‘Everyone deserves a safe
and healthy place to live’
T
hat’s the mantra of Melissa Lukin, execu-
tive director of Rebuilding Together
Peninsula. This Saturday, the national
organization will host its major annual event
when 1, 600 volunteers will paint, remove
debris, improve landscaping, do minor home
repairs at over 40 sites in San Mateo and north-
ern Santa Clara
counties.
These repairs to
make a house safe
and healthy are
often too expensive
for low-income resi-
dents. Making these
improvements helps
keep many of these
residences viable
and in the existing
housing stock and
enhances the ability
of many seniors to
remain at home.
Volunteers will be
working in Pacifica,
Daly City, Redwood
City, East Palo Alto, San Mateo, San Bruno,
South San Francisco, Menlo Park and
Burlingame.
***
How does one get on the list? Homeowners,
including mobile homeowners who need assis-
tance can contact the organization directly at
rebuildingtogetherpeninsula. org or are recom-
mended by county social workers or through
referrals from the cities of Daly City, San
Mateo, Redwood City and South San Francisco
which help fund the year round Safe At Home
Program.
Forty organizations and 35 sponsoring organi-
zations will either be providing volunteers or
expertise to get the work done. The volunteers
come primarily from local companies and corpo-
rations that make this event a team-building
exercise for their employees. Participants
include Google and Facebook in addition to sev-
eral Rotary and Lions clubs. This year, for the
first time, an all-women construction team,
sponsored by the Sheet Metal Contractors
Association of North America, will be installing
new countertops, repairing decks, fences and
painting an East Palo Alto home.
Sponsors include construction firms like Nibbi
Brothers, Novo Construction, Webcor, TrueBeck
and Level 10; and other businesses including
Rambus, Wells Fargo, Cooley LLP, nVent, Oracle
and DLA Piper LLP. Sponsors pay $5, 000 to par-
ticipate. Those funds are used to provide materi-
als and for prep work by staff well before the
main event. Volunteers begin work at 8 a. m. and
are done by 4 p. m. when they gather for a mega
picnic at Oracle.
Lukin spent the past 15 years as the executive
director of CORA which provided safe havens for
victims of domestic violence. Now she has
moved on to a new venue, but the goal is the
same, to keep the vulnerable safe and secure.

San Mateo Rotarians heard a thought-provok-
ing talk on immigration at their luncheon meet-
ing last week. The speaker was James Sheehan,
professor of history at Stanford University. It
wasn’t a political speech. No mention of ICE,
the Trump wall, sanctuary cities or separation of
families. Instead it was an academic analysis of
immigration trends over the decades. Some coun-
tries like Japan, where for every 100 births there
are 98 dependent elders, need immigrants to sur-
vive. Some others feel threatened by a new wave
of refugees from Africa, Central America and
Asia. The trend is expected to get worse as major
populations are displaced by global warming
— some regions get too hot to be livable while
some coastal communities are just washed away.
Unfortunately, the professor offered no solu-
tions.
What he did not say was that immigration was
tearing apart the political structure of Europe,
leading to Brexit and the rise of right wing
politicians in Hungary, Italy and Poland.
Meanwhile, Trump will continue to make this a
major campaign issue because it is red meat for
his base. It’s a much safer topic for him than
obstruction of justice.

US to sanction nations for importing Iranian oil
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The Trump adminis-
tration is poised to tell five nations,
including allies Japan, South Korea and
Turkey, that they will no longer be
exempt from U. S. sanctions if they con-
tinue to import oil from Iran, officials
said Sunday.
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo plans
to announce on Monday that the adminis-
tration will not renew sanctions waivers
for the five countries when they expire on
May 2, three U. S. officials said. The oth-
ers are China and India.

AIG top executive weighs
longevity and retirement
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Kevin Hogan is chief executive of insur-
er AIG’s Life & Retirement division, where
he oversees the firm’s individual retire-
ment, life insurance business and more. He
recently spoke with The Associated Press
about longevity, financial anxiety and
other issues surrounding retirement in the
U.S.
The conversation was edited for length
and clarity.
Q. AIG recently conducted a survey of
more than 1,000 people — all over 40 —
and found that more than half of them want-
ed to live to be 100. Did that surprise you?
A. You know, it sort of did in a way but
also, I was optimistic about that result. I
think it’s a reflection of the improvements
in health care and lifestyle and awareness.
But it also didn’t necessarily surprise me
because there’s been such a growing
momentum in recognizing the implica-
tions of increased longevity and what peo-
ple can do earlier in life to prepare for that.
Q. This idea of living longer can stir up
financial anxiety for folks though, can you
talk about what that looks like?
A. It’s quite interesting as we think
about ‘What does the new definition of
holistic wellness look like?’ There’s a
growing awareness of a sort of interde-
pendency between physical health, mental
health and financial health.
The implications from anxiety about
uncertainty about the future can have an
impact on physical and mental health. And
of course, you know a solid financial plan

which was first reported by The
Washington Post, was finalized on Friday
that anticipates the reality of a longer
lifespan is something that can help address
that anxiety, which in and of itself will
lead to a more holistically healthful,
longer life.
Q. Where do you see most people going
wrong in retirement planning?
A. I would say is there are certain basic
practices that everybody can adopt in
terms of being thoughtful about having a
savings plan, taking advantage of all of
the available benefits from their employer,
making sure to be aware of and take advan-
tage of tax benefits, as well as maintaining
discipline.
But I think that one of the things that
people run into that comes as a bit of a sur-
prise is that there’s a lot of focus on sav-
ings. With the demise of defined contribu-
tion plans, people have to save for them-
selves. And the emphasis is on savings,
savings, savings. But the reality is, when
you get to that point where you have to
convert a lump sum into a lifestyle it’s
something that people find very difficult
to do. That’s especially true in the uncer-
tain world where you may live longer,
which increases the chances of an unantic-
ipated health condition or perhaps some
market volatility, et cetera.
Thinking about just the savings part as
opposed to what happens after savings is
one of the big challenges that people can
run into because after 45 years of thinking
“I can’t touch my 401(k) or IRA money”
it’s very hard to switch gears all of a sud-
den. And that’s especially true in the uncer-
tain world where you may live longer,

by President Donald Trump, according to
the officials. They said it is intended to
further ramp up pressure on Iran by stran-
gling the revenue it gets from oil exports.
The administration granted eight oil
sanctions waivers when it re-imposed
sanctions on Iran after Trump pulled the
U. S. out of the landmark 2015 nuclear
deal. They were granted in part to give
those countries more time to find alter-
nate energy sources but also to prevent a
shock to global oil markets from the sud-
den removal of Iranian crude.

expect any significant reduction in the
supply of oil given production increases
Sea level rise is driving environmental concerns in Hawaii.
Waikiki flood concerns spur push
for Hawaii water level protection
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HONOLULU — Hawaii’s iconic Waikiki
Beach could soon be underwater as rising sea
levels caused by climate change overtake its
white sand beaches and bustling city streets.
Predicting Honolulu will start experienc-
ing frequent flooding within the next 15 to
20 years, state lawmakers are trying to pass
legislation that would spend millions for a
coastline protection program aimed at
defending the city from regular tidal inunda-
tions.
The highest tides of recent years have sent
seawater flowing across Waikiki Beach and
onto roads and sidewalks lining its main
thoroughfare, and interactive maps of the
Hawaiian Islands show that many parts of the
state are expected to be hit by extensive
flooding, coastal erosion and loss of infra-
structure in coming decades.
That’s an alarming scenario for a state
where beach tourism is the primary driver of
the economy, leading some lawmakers to
insist that planning for rising tides should
start now.
“The latest data on sea level rise is quite
scary and it’s accelerating faster than we ever
thought possible,” said state Rep. Chris Lee,
a Democrat and lead author of a bill calling for
the creation and implementation of the shore-
line protection plan. The project would focus
on urban Honolulu but act as a pilot program
for other coastal communities around the
state.
While Hawaii is rarely subjected to direct
hurricane hits, Lee’s bill says warmer oceans
will increase that risk by creating “more hurri-
canes of increasing intensity” — and esti-
mates the impact of a major hurricane making
landfall at $40 billion.
“The loss of coastal property and infrastruc-
ture, increased cost for storm damage and
insurance, and loss of life are inevitable if
nothing is done, which will add a significant
burden to local taxpayers, the state’s econo-
my, and way of life,” says Lee’s bill, which is
similar to action taken by New York City after
a storm surge from Superstorm Sandy led to

Since November, three of the eight —

however, have not, and have lobbied for

NATO ally Turkey has made perhaps the

senior officials telling their U. S. counter-

their country’s energy needs. They have

Lee said urban areas such as Waikiki are
often “built in such a way that it forms a pro-
tective barrier against the kind of storm
events that are inevitable.”
But in more rural areas, he said, new con-
struction could be restricted close to shore “to
preserve dune systems and build in a lot of nat-
ural solutions that are much more cost effec-
tive and provide a much more resilient result
than simply building out concrete infrastruc-
ture or anything of the sort.”
In a state dominated by Democrats that is
regularly at the vanguard of U.S. efforts to

proved popular. A version of the bill has
passed both chambers of Hawaii’s Legislature.
House and Senate leaders will convene in the
coming weeks to discuss final changes before

Democrat. His office has declined comment on
whether he will sign it.
The bill is moving forward two years after a
state-mandated sea level rise adaptation report
was made public to act as a guideline for future
legislative action and planning.
Research included in the report suggests
Hawaii will see a 3-foot (0.9 meters) rise in
ocean levels by the end of this century. It pre-
dicts that more than 6,000 of the state’s build-
ings and 20,000 people across all of Hawaii’s
islands will experience chronic flooding.
Dozens of miles of roadways, utility infra-
structure and beaches will be washed away,
the report said. The state’s ports and low-lay-
ing airports are also highly vulnerable.
The report was updated in September to
included newly published research warning
that previous estimates of inundation areas
in Hawaii were underestimated by 35% to
54%.
University of Hawaii researcher Tiffany
Anderson, who led the study, said traditional
sea level forecasts use what is known as the
“bathtub model” to measure where water will
rise and flood land. But she was surprised by
the dramatic increase revealed when she fac-
tored in more variables such as beach erosion
and wave energy fluctuations, which are not
used in traditional climate change flooding
predictions.

LAS VEGAS — After winning Game
5 at home to avoid elimination, Tomas
Hertl vowed the Sharks would return to
SAP Center for a seventh and decisive
game in their opening round series
with the Vegas Golden Knights.

to make it happen.
Hertl scored a short-handed goal
11:17 into the second overtime to lift
San Jose to a 2-1 win over the Golden
Knights, forcing a deciding game in
their first-round playoff series.
“At first moment when I get it, I was
already a little bit tired, I was thinking
maybe just dump it in and change, but I
saw a little bit of space, so I just take a
couple of steps and try shoot it,” Hertl
said. “If you don’t try you never know,
so I tried it and it somehow get

LOS ANGELES — A little score-
board watching inspired Klay
Thompson and Golden State.
Seeing Houston up 3-0 on Utah
combined with having dropped a
game at home, the Warriors got
back to business.
Kevin Durant scored 33 points
and Thompson added 32 in a 113-
105 victory over the Los Angeles
Clippers Sunday that gave the
Warriors a commanding 3-1 lead in
their first-round playoff series.
“We came in with that mindset to
put our foot on the throttle and not
let go,” Thompson said. “We let
go in Game 2 and we won’t do that
the rest of the playoffs. I really
believe that.”
After a quiet 12 points in Game
3, Thompson broke out for 27
points by halftime, when Durant
had 19.
“In the first quarter, we really
didn’t need to do anything special.
Klay was just amazing. K.D. was
consistent the whole game,” Steph
Curry said. “For us, obviously
with the threats we have out there,
it is just a matter of trying to be as
patient as possible.”
Curry’s patience was tried as he
missed his first six shots and was
in foul trouble for the second
straight game before finishing
with 12 points. Andrew Bogut
fouled out with 5:50 remaining in

Tennessee:
x-indicates early entrant to draft
Quarterback
Po s i ti o n o utl o o k: The most interest-

ly to be selected earlier than they should
because that’s what happens with quarter-
backs.
x-Kyler Murray, 5-foot-10, 205, Oklahoma
Streng ths : Explosive athlete with a

No. 1 selection to Cardinals.
x-Dwayne Haskins, 6-3, 230, Ohio State
Streng ths : Big guy with a big arm who
commands his offense.
Weaknes s es : Heavy-footed and prone to
fall back against pressure. Only 14 career
starts.
Fact: Led the nation with 4,831 yards
passing and 50 touchdowns last season.
Go ne by : Even if the teams currently in
the top 10 don’t want Haskins, good bet
someone will trade up to grab him.
Drew Lock, 6-4, 228, Missouri
Streng ths : Size, arm and athleticism.
Weaknes s es : Accuracy and ability to
throw with varying speeds are inconsistent.

Fact: Four-year starter at Missouri.
Go ne by : Might not be a top-15 player,
but good chance he’s a top-15 pick.
Daniel Jones, 6-5, 231, Duke
Streng ths : Combo of size and athleti-
cism is top level.
Weaknes s es : Decision making was
often questionable and release needs to be
sped up.
Fact: Three years as a starter under coach
David Cutcliffe, aka the guy who coached
Peyton and Eli Manning in college.
Go ne by : Pretty good chance Jones gets
taken in the first round.
Others to watch:
Ryan Finley, QB, North Carolina State;
Jarrett Stidham, Auburn; Will Grier, West
Virginia; Tyree Jackson, Buffalo.
Running back
Po s i ti o n o utl o o k: The trend away from
first-round running backs has been broken
in recent years, but there is no Ezekiel
Elliott or Saquon Barkley in this group.
x-Josh Jacobs, 5-10, 220, Alabama
Streng ths : Bursts through holes and
knocks tacklers back. Complete back who
can block and catch.
Weaknes s es : Will need to be better at
avoiding contact at the next level.
Fact: Thanks to Alabama’s wealth of tal-
ent, Jacobs left college with only 299
touches from scrimmage.

Stanford’s Jake Bailey is considered one of the
best legs in the 2019 draft class.
Offensive line
Po s i ti o n o utl o o k: This draft seems
light on those plug-and-play offensive tack-
les teams covet. Even some of the better
tackle prospects such as Alabama’s Jonah
Williams and Oklahoma’s Cody Ford have
teams considering them at guard. But depth
looks good.
Andre Dillard, T, 6-5, 315, Washington State
Streng ths : Excellent athleticism and
carries his weight comfortably.
Weaknes s es : Needs to show more power
as a run blocker.
Fact: Former two-star recruit who red-
shirted as a freshman and became a three-
year starter at tackle.
Go ne by : Top 20.
x-Jawaan Taylor, T, 6-5, 312, Florida
Streng ths : Able to drive defenders and
finish as a run blocker.
Weaknes s es : Arrived at Florida over-
weight and that will need to be managed.
Fact: Started 12 games at right tackle last
season for the Gators.

Posey’s shot produced all the offense

“It’s always nice to check that

The home run was Posey’s first in
237 at-bats since going deep
against the Miami Marlins on June
19, 2018. It lifted the listless
Giants to their second victory in
seven games.
“I know there’s a lot of tension
right now on our offense and our
struggles especially early in the
game,” San Francisco manager
Bruce Bochy said. “But them person-
ally, they have a lot of pride. So I
know that was huge for (Posey). And
just the timing of it. We’re down two
runs and he hit a three-run homer. It’s
a little different when you hit a home
run that doesn’t count.”

save.
“I could tell that they were send-
ing him,” Posey said. “But you kind
of lose track of exactly where he is,
so I wasn’t sure how close it was
going to be.”
It turned out not to be close at all,
though Pittsburgh manager Clint
Hurdle defended Cora’s decision.
“The ball kicked funny off the
wall and Joey pushed it,” Hurdle
said. “He’s aggressive over there
and they made a perfect relay.”
Dereck Rodriguez (3-2) won his
second straight start for the
Giants, allowing two runs on three
hits in 5 2/3 innings with a walk
and four strikeouts. His lone mis-
take came in the fourth, when he
left an 84-mph changeup over the

the 134th home run of his career.
Archer (1-1) allowed at least one
baserunner in all five innings of
work in his return from a five-game
suspension for throwing at
Cincinnati’s Derek Dietrich earlier
this month.
Reynolds, who singled in his
major league debut on Saturday, had
three of Pittsburgh’s four hits.
Fellow rookie Cole Tucker, who hit
a go-ahead two-run home run in a
rain-shortened 3-1 victory on
Saturday, doubled leading off the
fourth and scored on Bell’s homer.
Giants still scoreless in first
The Giants threatened to score
their first first-inning runs of the
season when they put runners on
first and second with one out. A
popup to third by Brandon Belt and
a routine grounder by Evan
Longoria pushed San Francisco’s
scoreless first-inning streak to 23
games, the second-longest to start
a season in the majors since 1912.

The Warriors’ streak of having at least 30
assists in three straight playoff games,
which tied a franchise record, ended. They
had 27 assists.
Curry’s fouls
Curry had five fouls in Game 3 and piled
up four in Game 4.
He had written the words “no” on one shoe
and “reach” on the other.
“He didn’t reach as much tonight so that
was good,” coach Steve Kerr said. “Steph
sometimes loses focus. He’s such a fascinat-
ing player. The same thing that makes him
not hesitate to shoot a fadeaway 30-footer
maybe is the same thing that gets him in
foul trouble. He’ll be fine.”

roster to run the table through eight dual
meets.
“Every year it’s a new adventure for every-
body depending on who comes and who
leaves,” Carlmont swimming coach Fred
Farley said. “[M-A] lost some pretty heavy
seniors last year on the girls’ side and we
didn’t.”
For Terra Nova, the varsity sweep of boys
and girls marks the first time since 1999 the
program has done this. Both squads went
undefeated through eight dual meets. And
with Terra Nova’s junior-varsity boys’ and
girls’ also earning undefeated regular-sea-
son titles, it is the first time in school his-
tory all four teams have won league titles in
about it,” Terra Nova swimming coach Brad
Pence said. “I told the kids they had the
opportunity to make history, so … they
were all happy and excited about it.”
Carlmont sweeps Burlingame
The Scots closed out their undefeated
league slates last Friday hosting
Burlingame. The Carlmont boys won 105-
63, while the girls won by an even more
comfortable margin 139-31.
“We’re pretty deep so we just kind of over-
whelmed them,” Farley said.
Senior Jade Margolis, junior Sammie Lee
and sophomore Morgan Hawes won four
events apiece for the Lady Scots.
Margolis took first in the 200 individual
medley at 2 minutes, 16 seconds and in the
100 breast at 1:11.4; Lee topped the field in
the 50 free at 25.5 and in the 100 fly at
and the 100 free at 53.9.
The three also shared in two wins in the
200 and 400 free relays.
Carlmont’s boys were paced by Luca
Garlati and Oliver Crawford-Shelmadine,
who won two individual events apiece.
Garlati topped the field in the 200 free at
1:52.4 and in the 500 free at 4:58.5. The
junior is in his third year as a varsity swim-
mer.
“He’s gotten better every year,” Farley
said. “During the dual-meet season we’re not
usually expecting top times. But come the
end of the season, he’s improved every year.
So I’m hoping and expecting that will hold
true.”
Crawford-Shelmadine won the 50 free at
23 seconds flat and the 100 free at 51.2.
Terra Nova takes down Jefferson
Terra Nova’s Ocean Division title was all
Friday’s dual-meet finale. The Terra Nova
boys downed Jefferson 139-20, while the
Lady Tigers won 134-20.
The boys last won the Ocean dual-meet
championship in 2010. For the girls it was
a bit more recent, with their last title com-
ing in 2016. Rival Half Moon Bay won the
dual-meet crown the previous two years.
Kaycie Lindland won the 100 back.
Allison Wong also won the 500 free, and is
on pace to take a shot at the program record
— a record she holds — in the event
Saturday at the PAL championships. She has
broken the record in consecutive seasons on
that very stage.
Freshman Maya Orsi is looking to take a
shot at the program record in the 200 free
Satuday. She won the event last Friday.
“Before the season, even starting in a
club meet, she went faster than the school
record in both the 200 or 500,” Pence said.

Another Dutchman who achieved the feat was Mark van In 2007-08, Ronaldo led the Premier League with 31 goals

together the combination of England, Spain and Italy.
David Beckham played in four of the top leagues but only
won titles at United (six), Madrid (one) and Paris Saint-
Germain (one), having failed to lift the Serie A trophy during
his two loan spells at AC Milan.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic won four Serie A titles (three with Inter
Milan and one with AC Milan), the Spanish league with
Barcelona and four French championships with PSG.
Brazil fullback Maxwell was on many of those same teams
as Ibrahimovic and also won in Italy, Spain and France.
Then there was Arjen Robben, who won the Premier League
twice with Chelsea before adding a Spanish title at Real
Madrid and seven Bundesliga trophies at Bayern Munich.

cent of Juventus’ goals.
So it came as no surprise when his dangerous cross from a
sharp angle was redirected in by a defender as an own-goal for
the winner in Juve’s 2-1 win over Fiorentina on Saturday —
giving the Bianconeri more than the single point they needed
to secure a record-extending eighth straight title with five
rounds remaining.
It’s the sixth league title of Ronaldo’s career.
The first came as a 22-year-old at United, ending a four-year
drought for Ferguson’s squad as Ronaldo scored 17 goals —
three fewer than Didier Drogba’s league-best 20.
That was just a warmup for what came next.

T, Alabama State; Elgton Jenkins, C,

Wide receiver
Outl o o k: The best prospects all have at

put them in the first round.
x-D.K. Metcalf, 6-3, 228, Mississippi
Streng ths : A physical specimen with
blazing speed.
Weaknes s es : Route running and hands
are inconsistent.

Streng ths : Good size, effective route run-
ner out of the slot and plays tough.
Weaknes s es : Can he play outside effec-

Diego Padres in 2016.
Go ne by : Middle of the second round.
Parris Campbell, 6-0, 205, Ohio State
Streng ths : Breakaway speed.
Weaknes s es : Needs refinement because
he was used in non-traditional ways in col-

Do sheep count sheep? EARTH MONTH

H
umans spend a lot of time talking
about sleep — or, more accurately,
talking about how poorly we sleep.
How many hours you got (or didn’t) last
night. The latest thing in herbal-infused
sleep masks and organic fabric blackout
shades. How to de-funk your CPAC machine.
Best melatonin-valerian blend or the new-
to-market drug (please don’t let me wake up
in my pajamas cruising Safeway’s cookie
aisle). Having suffered poor sleep since
childhood, I am sensitive to the issue (there
was a clown painted on black velvet hang-
ing across from my bed and you just didn’t
want to close your eyes while he was watch-
ing), but I’m also aware that while we’re the
ones to moan about it we’re not the only
animal with what might be considered pecu-
liar sleep patterns.
For duration, sloths are the oft-touted
champs but in fact their average (14 hours)
is actually about the same as that of adult
dogs (and less than puppies). Cats are better
at it, spending on average 16 or more of the
24 hours catnapping, but even that does not
approach the real pros. The Big Hairy
Armadillo (a South American species)
sleeps 20-plus hours every day, perhaps
simply to avoid hearing themselves called
big and hairy. Koalas sleep only (only!) 15
hours at a time but they also get points for
doing little more
than serious resting
for the remainder of
the day. For those of
us who routinely raid
the ‘fridge after mid-
night we already
know that sleep is
linked to eating
habits. Just like that
predawn nosher,
many grazing ani-
mals can be found active and awake for most
of the day to allow enough time to locate
and consume the necessary calories, which
is why giraffes and elephants, for example,
typically sleep only 30 minutes to a few
hours. Some frogs may not sleep for
months at a time, a slowed but awake metab-
olism helping them survive winter, finally
getting some zzz’s and bugs after the thaw.
Like sleep duration, sleep habits also
vary considerably. While cows and sheep
sleep in herds, safety in numbers, ever-
adorable otters sleep ever adorably holding
hands. Heck, I bet they’re even cute when
they snore.

Humane Society & SPCA.

Continued from page 1
Anthropologie, which departed recent-
ly from the high-end shopping desti-
nation along Burlingame Avenue.
While the lingering unoccupied
locations fuel concerns among some
that a retail store apocalypse is immi-
nent, local commercial real estate
experts maintained a more measured
view.
Julie Taylor, a retail broker with
Colliers International, said the
notable companies which historically
would lease the entirety of a large
storefront are often no longer seeking
assets with such high overhead.
So rather than focus on one retailer,
Taylor, who is shopping the J. Crew
site to interested tenants, said she piv-
oted to find two, smaller companies
which would share the space.
Such partnerships are growing in
popularity as retailers limit store-
fronts and narrow their emphasis to a
tailored customer experience in
exchange for the antiquated one-stop-
shop approach.
“There is a real massive shift in who
wants what type of space,” Taylor
said.
Also rising in popularity to fill
empty storefronts are co-working
spaces such as the sorts arranged by
WeWork or other competitors accom-
modating small companies or entre-
preneurs looking for professional
office space without the burden of
leasing a building or floor.
Amy Feldman, program director
with the All Good Work Foundation,
said co-working arrangements have
paid dividends also by populating
empty storefronts and maximizing the
space’s usefulness for a wider swath of

on or before Dec. 1 of this year and
wrap up in May 2020.
The council has reaffirmed the proj-
ect as a top priority and its benefits
include an increase in playable hours
by 30 percent, a decrease in water
costs by $50, 000 per year and
improved safety, according to a staff
report.
The plan is to install synthetic turf
with cork infill on 179,240 square feet
of playing area to create two soccer
fields adhering to U12 and U19 dimen-
sions, a baseball field with a dirt
pitching mound, and there will be field
striping to include additional fields
and lacrosse, according to the report.
The project also entails accessibili-
the local economy.
Finally, co-working spaces offer the
added benefit of drawing lots of new
people to central destinations, said
Feldman, who noted the employees
would likely patronize surrounding
merchants, eateries and shops.
Taylor noted another increasingly
effective means of attracting shoppers
downtown are popular fitness clubs,
similar to the Barry’s Bootcamp high-
intensity training outlet which
opened recently on Howard Avenue.
Club clientele are desirable shoppers
to occupy downtown because they are
often dedicated, able to afford pricey
memberships, image conscious and
inclined to spend time cooling down
after a workout by window shopping or
grabbing a drink and bite to eat nearby.
“If it’s the right opportunity, it’s a
fantastic amenity,” said Taylor, of the
fitness club presence.
Recognizing the industry’s rapid
growth, city officials recently dis-
cussed allowing the exercise clubs to
open up shop along Burlingame
Avenue, where they are currently barred
from operating.
While no formal direction was
offered, more generally the concept of
loosened zoning and development reg-
ulations around commercial corridors
ty upgrades to the dugouts, bleachers
and one water fountain; the relocation
of the scoreboard to improve visibili-
ty from the bleachers and the installa-
tion of one additional light pole as
well as upgrades to the existing light
poles to make them more energy effi-
cient, according to the report. All sub-
surface drainage will be replaced, net-
ting will be added to existing fencing
and a 4-foot perimeter fence will be
installed to separate the asphalt bike
and pedestrian path from the playing
field.
The latest cost estimate for the
above work totals $4,424,250, which
includes 5% contingencies for bid and
construction. That number is well
above the previous cost estimates
from 2014 and 2018, and there will be
additional costs associated with the
“unique environmental requirements of
a project on this site,” according to
the report. Those additional cost esti-

a key opportunity for stimulating the
local economy.
Commercial real estate developer
Ryan Guibara pushed hard for officials
to cut the red tape which can be a cost-
ly hurdle for businesses to overcome
when considering their future in
Burlingame — a sentiment received
with applause from the crowd.
And while much of the two-hour dis-
cussion was reserved for ideas to stimu-
late the local economy, some time was
kept for the identifying the potential
pratfalls associated with drawing more
businesses and shoppers to
Burlingame.
Most common among the criticisms
of the downtown shopping environ-
ment currently is a lack of available
parking, and some merchants feared
attracting certain shoppers, such as
those patronizing fitness clubs, would
only compound the issue.
Merchants recognized the lack of
parking as well as high rents as some
of the most significant obstacles they
have encountered, while residents
meanwhile desired a new entertainment
and nightlife venue.
To that end, the request for business-
es specializing in offering a unique
experience that can be shared among
friends and family aligns with another
rising trend among successful retailers.
Restaurateur John Scarcella, who
operates both Centro Pizza and Sapore
in Burlingame, partially attributed his
success to the high touch offered to
diners at his eateries while suggesting
such an experience is essential to the
sustainability of retailers and inde-
pendent business amidst a changing
marketplace.
Scarcella urged business owners to
give shoppers more than just an
opportunity to make a purchase
because he said “if it’s only about buy-
ing, they can do that online.”
mates are currently being determined
and they’ll cover other necessary serv-
ices such as geographical engineering
and soil report updating, according to
the report.
“Significant” development fees are
expected to come online in fiscal year
2020 and beyond that can help fund
the project but, according to the
report, additional funds would be need-
ed if the project were to be completed
on the aforementioned timeline. Staff
is still exploring funding options and
discussion on the topic is also sched-
uled for the council’s May 14 meeting,
but another option is to postpone the
project again until sufficient funds are
secured and explore potential state
funding to supplement revenue from
development fees.
Multiple design alternatives have
been discussed and considered for years
but the project never moved forward in
the past due to lack of funding.

notice of petition to
adminiSteR eState of
Eric James Nelson
Case Number: 19PRO00427-A
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of Eric James Nelson. A
Petition for Probate has been filed by
Michelle Ann Nelson in the Superior
Court of California, County of San Mateo.
The Petition for Probate requests that
Michelle Ann Nelson be appointed as
personal representative to administer the
estate of the decedent.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ister the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant au-
thority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: MAY 14, 2019 at
9:00 a.m., Dept. 28, Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo, 400
County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063.
If you object to the granting of the peti-
tion, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hear-
ing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent cred-
itor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representa-
tive, as defined in section 58(b) of the
California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal de-
livery to you of a notice under section
9052 of the California Probate Code.Oth-
er California statutes and legal authority
may affect your rights as a creditor. You
may want to consult with an attorney
knowledgable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-
tice form is available from the court clerk.

Councilman Marty Medina shared a similar sentiment.

RATES
Continued from page 1
Medina celebrated the effort by officials to minimize the
rates faced by residents.
“I think we are doing a good service for the public and we
are showing them we are trying to minimize costs,” he said.
Under the reduced monthly rate selected by councilmem-
bers, residents with a 20-gallon bins will pay $24.37;
those with 32-gallon bins will pay $31.42; those with 64-
gallon bins will pay $62.85; and those with 96-gallon bins
will pay $94.27.
The proposed 20-gallon bin hike is about $1 more than
the existing rate, but nearly 20 cents less than the rate ini-
tially sought by Recology; the proposed 32-gallon bin
hike is about $1.30 more than the existing rate, but nearly
30 cents less than the rate sought by Recology; the pro-
posed 64-gallon bin rate is about $2.60 more than the
existing rate, but about 50 cents less than the rate sought
by Recology; and the 96-gallon bin rate is $4 more than the
current rate, but about 90 cents less than the rate sought by
Recology.
“I think anyone wants to see an opportunity

While the city paid the consultant $30,000 for the analy-

$175,883 in savings for the city, amounting to an overall
savings for ratepayers worth about $145,000.
Bringing on board the consultant to analyze the garbage

Rico Medina, who lauded the decision as a means of saving
