Disparity in conservation
San Mateo County residents have
varying water cut mandates, efforts

Conservation targets
The state has proposed nine tiers of conservation targets for cities and utilities based on
residents daily consumption last summer.To achieve Gov. Browns statewide aggregate goal
of reducing 2013 usage by 25 percent, those who use more water are required to save more
water as compared to those who use less. Heres a look at how many gallons of water San
Mateo County residents used on average per capita per day in summer 2014, how much
theyve conserved since 2013, their new conservation goals and tier.

A new revision of state water officials landmark drought

mandates were released Saturday and while some are pleased
as it expanded targets and eased requirements for a few, it
also highlighted a disparity in conservation efforts across
San Mateo County.

Gov. Jerry Brown aims to combat the

water over the next nine months.
To achieve this lofty goal, the State
Water Resources Control Board amended its proposed regulations by expanding to nine conservation tiers requiring
varying cities and utilities to cut back between 8 percent
and 36 percent.
[The water board was] very responsive in the modifications they made to the regulations in an attempt to more
equitably allocate conservation across the state, said
Nicole Sandkulla, CEO of the Bay Area Water Supply and
Conservation Agency. It certainly makes me feel optimistic that theyll continue to be willing to do the right

Water pricing to spur conservation ruled unconstitutional

By Brian Melley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES An Orange County

appeals court ruled Monday that San Juan
Capistranos tiered water rates are unconstitutional, potentially dealing a blow to
agencies statewide that have used the pricing structure to encourage people to save
water.
Why is the state doing this?
California is far from running out of water, but its not clear when
the drought is going to end. Saving water is the cheapest and
most efficient way to make sure communities have enough
water if the drought persists.

How will California

reach 25 percent conservation?
Under the boards latest plan, each community has a water
reduction mandate of between 8 percent and 36 percent,
depending on past use.The state believes its going to be easier
for water-guzzling cities and desert resorts to make huge cuts
by neglecting big lawns. Water-frugal communities with few

Things to know
lawns such as San Francisco are less able to conserve even more.

Is everyone on board?
Dozens of cities have blasted the water reduction targets
as unfair and unrealistic. The plan also has highlighted
regional tensions. Diverse regions of the state, from wealthy
beach towns to rural Central Valley communities, are
jockeying for limited water. Some agencies that have
conserved for years complain that they are lumped in with
cities that just started metering water use. Others say they
are being punished with large cuts even after preparing for

Millbrae teachers to get raise

Tentative agreement shows 4 percent increase
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Months of contract negotiations between

Millbrae Elementary School District officials and teachers are set to end with a tentative contract that increases pay for classroom staff.
Under the tentative agreement slated go
before the Board of Trustees Tuesday, April

21, teachers will receive a 4 percent raise,

retroactive to July 1, 2014, and also see an
increase to their health and benefits plan.
Teachers and administrators have agreed
to not publicly discuss contract negotiations until a final agreement has been
reached, but a consultant with the California
Teachers Association who helped the two

cies from charging more than the cost of a

service.
The ruling comes shortly after Gov. Jerry
Brown issued drought orders that call for
water rates, including tiered pricing, that
encourage conservation. About two-thirds
of water districts in the state use some form
of tiered pricing, and the ruling was being
closely watched to see how it might apply
beyond the appellate court, which is only
the drought by building local storage supplies and watersaving technology.

How is the state

responding to the complaints?
The board has added more tiers of water reductions and tied
them to water use last summer in an attempt to reward
communities that cut back after the drought began. As a result,
some communities including Los Angeles, San Diego and Santa
Ana have easier targets, while others such as San Bernardino
and Sacramento-area agencies have to cut back even more.

binding in Orange County.

The practical effect of the courts decision is to put a straitjacket on local government at a time when maximum flexibility is
needed, Brown said in a statement. My
policy is and will continue to be: employ
every method possible to ensure water is
conserved across California.

See RATES, Page 8

before the drought. Board chairwoman Felicia Marcus says such
efforts are important to long-term conservation, but the board
is focused on short-term water savings to prepare in case the
current drought gets worse.

What if communities dont meet their targets?

Communities with pitiful savings face hefty fines, although the
water board says thats a last resort. The board says it will focus
on helping communities find ways to drive down use.The state
does have the power to intervene, including changing local
water rates.

What didnt change?

Whats next?

Communities are still not getting smaller targets for investing

in local drought-preparation projects or making big cutbacks

The water reduction targets are still being revised as the board
prepares to vote in early May.

Residents bemoan watering

City says it is required by the manufacturer warranty

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Some San Carlos residents who have let

their own lawns go brown during the ongoing drought are questioning why the city
routinely waters a synthetic field at
Highlands Park.
Wasnt it sold to the public that it was
low maintenance and didnt need water?
asked San Carlos resident Greg Alvarado.
The turfed field that was installed starting
in 2010 is made of organic material, however, and requires watering at least twice a
week, said Parks and Recreation Director
Christine Boland.
Alvarado wonders whether city officials
took that into consideration when approving the installation of the turfed field, which
was budgeted for about $2 million.
He and some of his neighbors, however,
say it appears the athletic field at Highlands
is getting watered every night for about an
hour although no one with the city could
confirm that.
The warranty with the manufacturer
requires the city to water and groom the
field, Boland said.
The organic material used on the field features a unique mixture of coconut husk, cork
and sand rather than the virgin or recycled
rubber found in other synthetic fields.
Its like a house plant. It shrivels up,
withers away and dies if you dont water it,
Boland said.
Councilman Mark Olbert had concerns
too when he heard the city was watering the
turfed field.
Its not surprising that people think
that synthetic turf needs no water. But it
t ak es much l es s wat er t h an n at ural

grass, Olbert said.
Councilman Matt Grocott understands too
why residents would be surprised the turfed
field needs to be watered.
But the city cannot let the field go bad and
must honor the warranty, Grocott said.
As far as residents letting their lawns go
brown, Grocott said, its everybodys personal decision on how exactly to cut back
on water.
Adding synthetic turf at Highlands was
nearly a decade-long ordeal that was also the
subject of a lawsuit.
A plan to add turf at Crestview Park was
nixed after neighbors came out in force
against it, Boland said.
The debate over turfing Highlands Park
actually led to the resignation of former San
Carlos Parks and Recreation Commissioner
Bob Bredel all the way back in 2006. The
commission voted to pursue fake turf at
Tierra Linda Elementary School rather than
at Highlands and Heather parks, which was
the recommendation then by staff and
Bredels preferred option.
All-weather synthetic fields do allow for
more play time and do not need to be closed
seasonally for maintenance, proponents
say.
It is estimated that watering the Highlands
field now only requires about 10 percent of
the water needed if it were still a grass field.

Pulitzers span news

outlets large, small
South Carolina paper wins for
reporting on domestic violence
By Jennifer Peltz
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK The Post and

Courier of Charleston, South
Carolina, won the Pulitzer Prize
for public service Monday for an
examination of the deadly toll of
domestic violence, while The
New York Times collected three
awards and the Los Angeles Times
two.
The Seattle Times staff took the
breaking news award for its coverage of a mudslide that killed 43
people and its exploration of
whether the disaster could have
been prevented.
The New York Times and The
Wall Street Journal both won
investigative reporting prizes,
the Times for an examination of
lobbyists influence on state
attorneys general, the Journal for
detailing fraud and waste in the
Medicare payment system.
The Times coverage of the
Ebola outbreak in West Africa
won Pulitzers for international
reporting and feature photography, and the St. Louis PostDispatch was honored in the
breaking news photography category for its images of the racial
unrest touched off by the deadly
police shooting of Michael
Brown in Ferguson, Missouri.
The Washington Post took the

national reporting prize for

exposing security lapses that
spurred an overhaul of the Secret
Service.
The Pulitzer judges also recognized less widely known stories,
such as The Post and Couriers
exploration of 300 womens
deaths in the past decade. The
paper shed light on a legal system in which first-time offenders
face at most 30 days in jail for a
domestic violence beating but
can get five years in prison for
cruelty to a dog.
We felt so passionate about
this project, and we felt so passionate about the difference it
could bring to South Carolina,
said P.J. Browning, publisher of
84, 200-circulation Post and
Courier, which last won a Pulitzer
in 1925 for editorial writing.
Since the series was published,
state lawmakers have proposed
tougher penalties for domestic
violence, and Gov. Nikki Haley
created a task force to investigate
the problem.
The prizes spanned news outlets large and small: The 70,000circulation Daily Breeze of
Torrance, California, won the
local reporting award for exposing corruption in a school district. And Bloomberg News was a

Vatican goes on offensive to defend U.S.-Spanish saint

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

VATICAN CITY The Vatican is mounting

a campaign to defend an 18th century
Franciscan missionary who will be canonized
by Pope Francis in the U.S. against protests
from Native Americans who have compared
his conversion of natives to genocide.
The Vatican is teaming up with the archdiocese of Los Angeles and the main U.S. seminary in Rome to host a daylong celebration
May 2 at the North American College to
honor the Rev. Junipero Serra, who introduced Christianity to much of California as he
marched north with Spanish conquistadors.
Francis will celebrate Mass in his honor.
For the church, Serra was a great evangelizer and a model for todays Hispanics. Many
Native Americans, though, say Serra helped
wipe out native populations, enslaved con-

staged protests in California and there is a
move to remove his statue from the U.S.

in defense of Native Americans, often intervening to spare them from the more brutal
colonial officials.
The Rev. Vincenzo Criscuolo, a Franciscan
at the Vaticans saint-making office, said it

was important to look at Serra as a man of

his time who, like many others at the time
used corporal punishment as an educational
tool. It is not to be excluded, but it wasnt
genocide, it wasnt a death penalty, he told
reporters.

of the popes, denounced plans to remove

Francis is due to canonize Serra on Sept. 23
at the National Shrine in Washington at the

Francis clearly wanted the canonization,
even though the Vatican never confirmed a
second miracle attributed to Serras intercession. Criscuolo revealed that the
Congregation for the Causes of Saints hasnt
even officially approved the canonization,

cardinals and bishops might say no given
that Francis announced he would make him a

Hill budget measure

Garowe, the administrative capital of Somalia's semi-autonomous Puntland.

Al-Shabab bombs U.N. van,

four UNICEF workers killed
By Abdi Guled
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MOGADISHU, Somalia Islamic

extremists set off a bomb in a U.N. van in
normally tranquil northern Somalia on
Monday, killing at least seven people,
including four employees of the U.N. childrens agency in an attack that was widely
denounced.
Two Kenyans, one Ugandan, one Afghan
and three Somalis died in the explosion in
Garowe town and one American, one Sierra
Leonean, one Ugandan, one Kenyan and
four Somalis were wounded, police Col. Ali
Salad told the Associated Press.
Somali President Hassan Sheikh
Mohamud called it a direct attack on the
future of the country.
This attack is not just targeted at the
United Nations, but in attacking UNICEF,
al-Shabab has also attacked Somali children. It is an attack against the future of our
country and I condemn it in the strongest
possible terms, Mohamud said in a statement.
Al-Shabab, which is battling to convert
Somalia into a hard-line Islamic state,
claimed responsibility through its radio station for the attack in Garowe, capital of
Puntland state.
UNICEF Executive Director Anthony Lake
said: Our colleagues dedicated their lives to
working for the children of Somalia. They
are not victims. They and those who were

wounded are heroes. We mourn their loss and

hope for the full recovery of the injured.
The bomb was apparently planted under a
seat and was detonated by remote control,
said police official Yusuf Ali.
Garowe resident Jama Hashi said he heard
a thunderous blast inside the van, which he
said was passing near the offices of the
U.N.s food agency when the bomb went
off. Human limbs were scattered around the
scene, he said. Security forces sealed off the
area as ambulances carried the wounded
away. Photos showed the roof had apparently been blown off. A corpse leaned out of a
window whose glass had been blown away,
dripping blood onto the side of the van.
Its a dark day, but terrorists must know
that the blood they shed will not go in vain.
We shall deal with them with an iron hand,
said Salad, the police commander in the
semi-autonomous Puntland state.
U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said
at U.N. headquarters in New York that the
men and women who bring humanitarian
action to light are an inspiration to us all.
Targeting such brave and dedicated individuals for violence is an attack on us all,
he said. We must do our utmost to bring the
perpetrators to justice and to ensure that
humanitarian personnel have the security
they need to carry out their vital role.
Bombings are rare in northern Somalia,
unlike in the south where al-Shabab is battling the Somali government and the
African Union forces bolstering it.

WASHINGTON Lawmakers quarreled

Monday over Medicare, taxes and almost
$40 billion in unrequested money for overseas war-fighting as House and Senate
negotiators kicked off work on a
Republican budget blueprint for next year
and beyond.
A budget is more than just a set of numbers. It is a reflection of our priorities, of
our vision for the future, said Rep. Tom
Price of Georgia, top negotiator for House
Republicans, as he touted the version he
largely drafted.
It would cut more than $5 trillion from
spending projected to otherwise total
almost $50 trillion, his path toward a balanced budget by 2024.
Separate House- and Senate-passed budget plans have plenty in common. Both
chambers want to use the fast-track budget
process to send a measure repealing the
health care law to President Barack Obama.
And both call for padding war spending
its exempt from budget limits on new
weapons and training of American forces.
At issue is a nonbinding measure for the
2016 fiscal year starting Oct. 1. Both
House and Senate Republicans have
endorsed major cuts to programs such as
Medicare, Medicaid, highway projects and
domestic agency budgets as a way to bring
the federal ledger into balance within a
decade all without raising taxes.
Passing a balanced budget is about
restoring the trust of the American people,
because the federal governments chronic
overspending and exploding debt threatens
each and every American, said Senate

Budget Committee Chairman Mike Enzi, RWyo.

Liberal Vermont Independent Bernie
Sanders agreed that the companion
Republican plans are the GOPs vision for
the future though he views it as an
assault on the poor and working class
because of cuts to student loans, Medicaid
and food stamps, as well as a repeal of the
Affordable Care Act that would take medical
care away from about 15 million people.
The rich get much richer, and the
Republicans think they need more help,
Sanders said.
Republicans will now iron out their differences behind closed doors in hopes of
passing a joint House-Senate budget plan
by the end of the month.
If Republicans did actually apply this
budget, once the American people got a
good look at its extremism and its
favoritism, it would put a quick end to the
Republican majorities, said Sen. Sheldon
Whitehouse, D-R.I.
There is little appetite now for a big
budget battle, but House Republicans have
opened the door to using a follow-up
spending cut bill to do more than simply
gash Obamas health care law. Legislation
to curb Postal Service costs and end
Saturday mail delivery is an option, as are
cuts to food stamps, Pell Grants and subsidies for rural air service, among others.
Senate Republicans, however, are more
cautious and havent detailed many of their
proposed cuts. They have rejected a House
GOP plan to turn Medicare into a voucherlike program for future retirees, and they
are less aggressive in curbing spending on
programs such as Medicaid and food
stamps.

Truth About Deceptive

Cremation Practices
By Paul Larson
MILLBRAE

(This was first

published in 2010,
but its currently
needed again with
updated details)
Attacks from a
number of out of
state cremation corporations have been
waged upon our local and well respected
mortuaries. By now many of you reading
this article have been targeted by the flood
of junk advertising being spread across the
Peninsula & Bay Area by these cremation
outfits that use deceptive language to spread
their misleading message. Its no secret that
societies such as the Trident-Neptune
Corporation are using scare tactics to sway
consumers when they are most vulnerable.
Their mailings, which are many times
disguised as friendly notes, use falsehoods
to imply that their business practice just
makes sense or is much less expensive
luring in unsuspecting consumers. Their
shrewdly worded letters which use
implications such as fancy and expensive
funeral home, falling victim to pressure to
overspend, spending your familys
inheritance or up-selling are crafted to
imply some sort of dishonesty. Also, an
alluring enticement to WIN is flaunted
with tempting instructions to include your
phone number & key personal data.
The truth is that these societies are no
more than wealthy competitors to your
locally owned mortuary, and their costs are
not only comparable, but many times
MORE expensive than what your local
mortuary offers. Ive had families come to
me at the Chapel of the Highlands with
stories of being seduced by certain

cremation societies with talk of lower

costs and other persuasive language. Tales
of unimpressive staff and meetings in
bunker-like facilities are common. After
comparing local mortuaries & cremation
costs it was discovered that a mortuarys
total balance can be similar or even LOWER
than these societies.
Families have
realized that it would have been much more
comforting if they had called the Chapel of
the Highlands first. Our Chapel is well
experienced and has been highly regarded
for assisting families with low cost
cremations decades before cremation-only
corporations ever existed. We are also a full
service facility offering our Chapel for
Memorial Services if desired.
My advice if you ever wish to
investigate cremation:
Do your homework and call your locally
owned mortuary first to compare costs
along with reports on good reputation;
Dont let cremation societies message
of being much less expensive or offers
to WIN fool you;
Dont turn over your phone # or personal
info to un-requested cremation solicitors;
If you must use a cremation society
find out where they are headquartered
and about any prior or active lawsuits.
Thank you for reading my rebuttal. It
bothers me that these societies are openly
using misleading language and making
blanket implications about mortuaries.
Their tactics are unwarranted and my only
desire is for the truth to be known.
If you ever wish to discuss cremation,
funerals or make pre-planning arrangements
please feel free to call me and my staff at the
CHAPEL OF THE HIGHLANDS in
Millbrae at (650) 588-5116. We will guide
you in a fair and helpful manner. You may

RATES
Continued from page 1
San Juan Capistrano charged nearly four
times as much per unit of water for users in the
highest tier to provide an incentive to conserve. Residents complained the higher rates
were arbitrary and unfair.
They were exponential, arbitrary and they
magically appeared out of thin air, said attorney Benjamin Benumof, who represented San
Juan residents. We feel vindicated and feel
the constitution was upheld.
Under the ruling, tiered pricing would be
legal, but it would have to be tied to the cost
of the water, the court said.
San Juan Capistranos 2010 rate schedule
charged customers $2.47 per unit 100 cubic
feet, or 748 gallons of water in the first tier
and up to $9.05 per unit in the fourth.
While the city got water from five different
sources, including the massive Metropolitan
Water District, it failed to tie costs it passed
on to residents directly to more expensive
sources, the court ruled.

to tap more expensive supplies, and then bill

users in those tiers accordingly, the court
wrote.
The court said the tiered structure violated
Proposition 218, a 1996 state law, because
the highest rates exceeded the cost of delivering the water.
The city was reviewing the ruling and hadnt decided Monday what action it would take.
After the state Superior Court declared San
Juan Capistranos rate structure invalid in
2013, the city flattened its tiers and tied
charges more directly to water costs while it
awaited the appellate court decision.
Benumof said taxpayers will seek refunds
for the additional money they paid.
The ruling will likely be cited in other lawsuits even though it doesnt extend beyond
Orange County and could spur new lawsuits,
lawyers said. Benumof is involved in two lawsuits already pending that challenge water
rates in Glendale and in part of San Diego
County.

Bombs blast houses

in Yemen capital, hit
near Iran Embassy

By Ahmed Al-Haj
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SANAA, Yemen Saudi-led airstrikes hit

weapons caches held by Iran-backed Shiite
rebels, touching off massive explosions
Monday in Yemens capital that killed at
least 19 people and buried scores of others
under the rubble of flattened homes.
The U. S. Navy, meanwhile, has dispatched the aircraft carrier USS Theodore
Roosevelt toward the waters off Yemen to
join other American ships prepared to intercept any Iranian vessels carrying weapons
to the rebels, U.S. officials said.
After the coalition airstrikes, mushroom
clouds rose over the mountainous outskirts
of Sanaa, where the arms depots are located.
The Fag Atan area has been targeted several
times since March 26, the start of the air
campaign against the rebels known as
Houthis.
It was like the doors of hell opened all of
a sudden, said Mohammed Sarhan, whose
home is less than 2 kilometers (1 mile)
from the site. I felt the house lift up and
fall.
The blasts among the most powerful in

Sanaa since the airstrikes began deposited a layer of soot on the top floors of buildings in the Yemeni capital and left streets
littered with glass. Anti-aircraft fire rattled
in response.
One bomb hit near the Iranian Embassy in
Sanaa, drawing a sharp rebuke from Tehran.
Saudi Arabia and several of its allies,
mainly Gulf Arab countries, have been trying to drive back the rebels, who seized
Sanaa in September and have overrun many
other northern provinces with the help of
security forces loyal to former President Ali
Abdullah Saleh. The U.S. supports the Saudi
campaign.
Western governments and Sunni Arab
countries say the Houthis get their arms
from Iran. Tehran and the rebels deny that,
although the Islamic Republic has provided
political and humanitarian support to the
Shiite group.
The Houthis and Salehs troops have also
advanced on the southern port of Aden,
Yemens main sea hub, forcing President
Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi to flee the
impoverished but strategic country last
month. The Houthis and their allies have
been trying to take over Aden for weeks.

The new realignment

Possible and impossible

By Herb Perez

oster City remains the single

best place to live, work and
play on the Peninsula. We
enjoy an unparalleled quality of life
that is enhanced by a well-maintained
infrastructure, responsive public safety professionals and professional
families who desire the best for their
children. However, we are facing
extreme challenges in our San MateoFoster City Elementary School
District and its public school system
including overcrowding, deteriorating
infrastructures and the inability to
address school and classroom sizes
based upon future projections of
growth. We as a community must
work together with our families,
school district and City Council to
nd a feasible and acceptable resolution for our families.
To craft a solution for any problem,
it is important to identify the issue,
potential partners and stakeholders,
possible solutions and, nally, the
preferred resolution. There is no doubt
that the problem has been well dened
with regard to our public schools.
Furthermore, there has been tremendous effort and work by the school
district and its committees to craft
potential solutions. We now nd ourselves in the nal stages of crafting
the preferred solution for our children.
It is important for all of us to consider the viability and feasibility of each
and every proffered option. Over the
coming weeks, the school district is
holding a series of meetings where
they will present various scenarios
and accept public input regarding the
same. I cannot comment nor would I
question a process that may yield
solutions that the City Council and
staff may or may not support, as we
have not been part of a process that
may develop solutions that have a
direct impact to city facilities or
property. I applaud the committee for

its diligence and

perseverance and
for its commitment
to creating the end
result. I will, however, offer some
insight into other
processes and solutions from other
arenas.
Over the years, I have served in a
number of organizations professional, for-prot and nonprot, and have
seen many methods used to solve difcult issues. In almost every arena,
any potential solution can be categorized in one of three ways: possible,
impossible or improbable. It is
important to note that any number of
factors can force a solution into any
category. However, once a potential
solution is categorized as impossible,
it is highly unlikely that any responsible manager would continue to pursue it. Most businesses focus on possible and, from time to time, improbable solutions since they may be realistically attained. In fact, the only
time an organization will focus on the
impossible is when there is no other
viable alternative. Moreover, they do
so with the belief they might change
one of the factors that makes the
potential solution impossible so
their end goal may be obtained.
In 2009, Foster City was
approached and asked a question about
potentially using one of its parks for
a school site. At that time, I did not
sit on the City Council but did attend
the public outreach meeting in the
council chambers as a resident and
interested party. At the conclusion of
that meeting, every councilmember
cited the legal prohibition from a
2009 legal memo prepared by the city
attorney. In that memo, it was concluded that it would be impossible to
use or sell city parkland to the school
district. It was determined that the
solution was impossible or extremely
improbable. California laws regard-

Guest
perspective
ing parks and open spaces are protective and well dened (I would encourage anyone who desires to see that
memo to contact our city clerk who
can provide it).
I grew up in a big city where
schools and their playgrounds were
our parks. It was not uncommon for
our playgrounds to be fenced during
school hours and open to the public
once school was recessed. In cities
where there is a shortage of land and a
shortage of parks space, this is a
necessity. It is also a possible and
necessary solution to serve the
greater good.
Our community and its children can
no longer wait for a solution. We can
no longer allow ourselves to focus on
impossible solutions that are unavailable based upon legal restrictions or
partners who are unwilling or unable
to be part of the offered solutions. We
must focus on possible solutions that
will address our current and future
overcrowded schools and deteriorating schools sites.
I stand ready as a councilman, a resident and member of our community
to support any solution that is possible and our community supports. I am
hopeful and optimistic that together
we can nd a solution. I would nd it
difcult and challenging to support a
solution that is impossible to enact. I
believe our children deserve our best
efforts and I will do my best to be part
of a realistic solution that is achievable.

An alternative plan for ice rink
Editor,
In an effort to de-ice the gridlock
between SPI Holdings, the Save the
Bridgepointe Ice Rink group, and the
San Mateo City Council, perhaps a
public/private partnership should be
developed (Whats next for ice rink
in the April 18 edition of the Daily
Journal). The redesign could mirror
an intimate version of the HP (now
SAP) Pavilion in San Jose, to offer
ice sports, be able to convert to an
entertainment venue, and maybe

even a roller rink with roller derbies.

The city could help organize and
market hockey and ice skating classes through Parks and Recreation
channels for the benefit of the community, and mission to keep things

our ideological roots are the bedrock of

each political party that governs our
nation-believe it or not, you each identify
with one of them. That is what my political theory professor at Howard University said to my class. The professor continued to describe each ideological root
modern liberal, classical liberal, radical and conservative. As a class exercise, he had each student share what
ideological category they logically fell under thus
making them a Democrat, Republican, Libertarian, etc.
All but one student was able to identify with one ideology. Frustrated and inattentive when the professor
called on her, she exclaimed, I can identify as a conservative. The professor
went on to ask her what
kind of conservative
ideology she identified
most with traditional, neoconservative,
etc. After a brief pause,
she proudly replied,
my kind of conservative. The class erupted
in laughter. Some students appeared to be
outright offended that
she held no respect for
ideologies that have

replied, I simply do not understand how we can lump
everyone into one ideological box and expect that to
accurately reflect the beliefs of every citizen. She went
on to explain that she held both conservative and liberal views, depending on the issue. Needless to say,
everyone in the class agreed with her sentiments, but

principles. Today, she is a registered independent voter.

since our countrys inception. As I said in a previous
opinion column, history shows us patterns in which the
American voter ideologically shifts from backing one
political party to another. I referred to this pattern as
the voter pendulum also referred to by some scholars as political realignments.
People are well aware of the tendency of American voters to realign with political parties, but one decade of
voter registration changes presents concrete evidence
that a groundbreaking realignment shift is underway for
the first time in history. This time, an overwhelming
number of voters have chosen to realign their vastly
different ideologies with the Decline to State pool
the highest number in recorded history, in fact.
According to the Secretary of States Office, 23.1 percent of Californias 17.6 million voters are registered
independents. This trend is mirrored throughout the
country with 42 percent of Americans identifying themselves as independent voters. Most political pundits
will tell you the obvious assumption that this new
realignment shift reflects that voters are increasingly
frustrated with the government gridlock in Washington,
D.C. I do not doubt this, but there is more to this than
meets the eye.
The mere fact that many of the voters once deemed
Republicans or Democrats have decided to register as
independents does not suggest these voters have abandoned their ideologies or principles. Rather like the
students sentiments above they refuse to be lumped
into one ideological box. You can call this trend a temporary break with traditional voter registration and
party affiliation, or a fundamental discourse with political parties in general.
One thing is certain it is increasingly becoming
more difficult to place people in one ideological box.
After all, nothing frightens political parties and news
media more than fear of the unknown voter. I suspect
independent voters find solace in the fact that others
cannot be so quick to cast judgment on their political
beliefs.
Regardless of your party affiliation, the new realignment is underway. Among other things, it means that
the mystery box of independent voters has grown significantly, placing an even greater check on each political party.

NEW YORK The stock market

bounced back on Monday after getting a
boost from some good first-quarter
earnings reports.
Toy maker Hasbro reported an unexpected gain in sales on the back of
strong demand for its Transformer, Nerf
and Marvel toys. Oil and gas services
company Halliburton and investment
bank Morgan Stanley also reported
results that were better than analysts
were expecting.
Stocks were recovering from a big
slump on Friday when worries about the
unresolved Greek debt crisis and some
disappointing earnings reports rattled
financial markets.
This week is one of the busiest for
first-quarter earnings with 147 companies, close to one-third of those in the
S&P 500, scheduled to report their
results. Investors are already expecting
weak earnings because a surge in the
dollar is hurting overseas sales. A big
drop in oil prices is also hitting energy
companies.
The strong earnings Monday are setting a good trend to start the week, said
David Lyon, a global investment specialist at JPMorgan Private Bank.
Earnings are coming in better than the

weakened expectations.
The Standard & Poors 500 index
climbed 19.22 points, or 0.9 percent,
to 2,100.40. The Dow Jones industrial
average gained 208.63 points, or 1.2
percent, to 18,034.93. The Nasdaq
composite climbed 62.79 points, or
1.3 percent, to 4,994.60.
Analysts are predicting earnings per
share will slide by an average of 2.6
percent for S&P 500 companies in the
first quarter, according to S&P Capital
IQ data. If that forecast holds, it will
mark the first period that earnings have
contracted since the third quarter of
2009, when the U.S. was emerging
from the Great Recession.
On Monday, though, the reports were
better than forecast.
Hasbro was the biggest gainer in the
S&P 500 index after reporting betterthan-expected earnings. The company
is battling a shift toward video gaming,
but unexpectedly reported rising revenue for the first quarter. The stock
jumped $8.27, or 13 percent, to
$74.16.
Halliburton was another company to
gain after posting earnings that beat
expectations.
The company reported a $643 million loss for the first quarter, but after
asset write-offs, severance costs and
other items had been accounted for, the

Summer domestic airfares fall $2.01

By Scott Mayerowitz
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

After years of steadily-rising airfare, travelers this summer can expect

a tiny bit of relief $2.01 in savings
to be exact.
The average roundtrip domestic
ticket this summer, including taxes,
now stands at $454, down less than a
percent from last summer. Vacationers
to Europe will fare better with the
average ticket down 3 percent to
$1,619, about $50 less than last summer.
Not all travelers will get to save.
Flights to Hawaii, Florida and New
Orleans are cheaper, but travelers
heading to New York, Denver and San
Francisco can expect to pay more.
Even in Europe, it depends on the
destination. Overall fares are down but
it will cost more this summer to fly to
cities like Amsterdam; London;
Budapest, Hungary; Lisbon, Portugal;
Frankfurt, Germany or Reykjavik,
Iceland.
Prices are coming down because airlines are now saving billions of dollars thanks to lower fuel prices and
because more seats have been
crammed into planes, spreading out
costs over more passengers. European
economic troubles are also keeping
some seats empty as business travelers stay home.

The generally good news about fares

comes in a report released Monday by
the Airlines Reporting Corp., which
processes ticket transactions for airlines and travel agencies such as
Expedia, American Express and
Carlson Wagonlit. The study looks at
4.1 million tickets purchased before
March 31 this year and last year for
travel between Memorial Day and
Labor Day.
Airfare during the first three months
of this year was also lower, down 3.7
percent domestically and 8.9 percent
internationally.
Even with the moderate relief this
summer, prices are still higher than
just a few years ago. The average
domestic roundtrip ticket is still $13,
or 3 percent, higher than it was in
2012. European trips are $60, or 3.9
percent, more expensive.
Travelers can thank lower oil prices
and more seats on planes for keeping
this summers airfare in check.
Airlines at the start of the year paid
$2.13 for each gallon of jet fuel, down
30 percent from last years $3.03,
according
to
the Bureau of
Transportation Statistics. With U.S.
airlines burning through 42 million
gallons of fuel a day, that 90-cent savings adds up quickly: $14.7 billion for
the entire year if prices remain at these
levels.
Travelers are only seeing a sliver of

those savings. The rest of the money

is being used to upgrade airplanes and
airports, pay employee bonuses and
reward shareholders as airlines continue to post record profits.
European economic woes are also
keeping some business travelers
home, helping lower fares for vacationers. Fares are down to airports in
Spain, Italy and France. However,
cities in Germany and England, whose
economies are stronger, are still higher this summer compared to last year.
Part of the savings is also linked to
airlines adding extra seats on certain
routes.
One of the best bargains to Europe
right now is between New York and
Milan, Italy. Thats because four airlines fly that traditional business
route nonstop each day including
Dubai-based
Emirates
Airline.
Starting in June, Emirates will fly the
worlds largest jet, the Airbus A380,
carrying 489 people between the two
cities. Thats 129 more passengers a
day than it currently carries, helping
to bring down prices.
The same situation is true for
Hawaii.
There are 5 percent more seats
between Hawaii and the rest of the
country this summer, compared to
last. Thats helping to lower ticket
prices to most airports there by about
10 percent.

company logged earnings per share of

49 cents. Halliburtons stock rose 96
cents, or 2 percent, to $47.85.
Stocks have moved between big
upswings and losses for much of the
year, and the S&P 500 has gained only
2 percent so far in 2015.
Not all investors are positive on the
near-term outlook for stocks. Michael
Scanlon, a senior investment analyst
at John Hancock Asset Management,
says stocks will likely continue to
struggle to advance as long as the debt
situation in Greece remains unresolved
and earnings at U.S. companies remain
weak.
I feel like the first half of this year
... is going to turn out to be a pretty
bumpy period for equities, said
Scanlon.
In government bond trading, prices
edged lower. The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note rose to 1.88
percent from 1.86 percent on Friday.
In currency trading, the euro weakened to $1.0737 from $1.0805 on
Friday. The dollar rose to 119.24 yen
from 118.94 yen
U.S. crude oil rose 64 cents to close at
$56.38 a barrel in New York. Brent
crude, a benchmark for international
oils used by many U.S. refineries, was
unchanged at $63.45 a barrel in
London.

Group seeks rehiring of workers
at five closed Wal-Mart stores
NEW YORK A group made up of Wal-Mart workers is
asking labor regulators to go to court to force the discounter
to rehire all 2,200 employees affected by the abrupt temporary closing of five stores a week ago.
The United Food and Commercial Workers International
Union filed the charge on behalf of OUR Walmart with the
National Labor Relations Board on Monday, arguing the
closings were retaliation for labor activism. Wal-Mart says
it closed the stores to fix plumbing issues.
One affected store, in Pico Rivera, California, has been a
hotbed for worker protests against Wal-Mart. It was the first
store to wage such protests, in October 2012. The other
stores are in Midland and Livingston, Texas; Tulsa,
Oklahoma; and Brandon, Florida.
This is a new low, even for Wal-Mart, Venanzi Luna, an
eight-year Wal-Mart worker and member of OUR Walmart,
said in a statement. Through OUR Wal-Mart, were going
to keep fighting back until the company gives us our jobs
back.
Wal-Mart couldnt immediately be reached for comment
on the action. But it has argued it closed the stores because
of major plumbing issues, not because of worker protests.
Wal-Mart spokesman Lorenzo Lopez told the Associated
Press that the stores would remain shuttered for up to six
months. The company has said that the workers would be
put on paid leave for two months and it would look to transfer some to nearby stores.
He did acknowledge that it was atypical for Wal-Mart to
temporarily close stores for plumbing issues but said the
company wanted to improve the customer experience.
We understand this decision has been difficult on our
associates and our customers and we aim to reopen these
stores as soon as these issues are resolved and improvements are made, Wal-Mart said in a statement.
Lopez noted that the stores have had between 100 and 140
service calls for plumbing issues, the highest incidence of
plumbing issues in its 4,500 stores. He declined to elaborate on specific problems but said they involved water leakage and that equipment needed to be cleaned out.

Morgan Stanley beats Street 1Q forecasts

NEW YORK Morgan Stanley on Monday reported firstquarter earnings of $2.31 billion.
The New York-based bank said it had earnings of $1.18
per share. Earnings, adjusted for one-time gains and costs,
came to 85 cents per share.
The results exceeded Wall Street expectations. The average estimate of 10 analysts surveyed by Zacks Investment
Research was for earnings of 79 cents per share.
The investment bank posted revenue of $9.91 billion in
the period, also surpassing Street forecasts. Five analysts
surveyed by Zacks expected $9.25 billion.
Morgan Stanley shares have fallen slightly more than 5
percent since the beginning of the year, while the Standard
& Poors 500 index has climbed 1 percent. The stock has
climbed 19 percent in the last 12 months.

Warriors overcome early deficit to top Pelicans

By Antonio Gonzalez
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKLAND Golden State Warriors coach

Steve Kerr likes to say his team teeters on
explosive and careless basketball, pulling
off an astonishing play one moment and a
perplexing one the next.
Kerr saw both extremes Monday night.
And the better half was just good enough to
defend home court.
Klay Thompson scored 26 points, Stephen
Curry had 22 points and six assists and the

Warriors 97, Pelicans 87

Warriors regrouped from an early deficit to
beat the New Orleans Pelicans 97-87 and take
a 2-0 lead in their first-round playoff series.
We still get excited at times and do some
crazy things. I kind of like the fact that we
walk that line, Kerr said. Its what makes us
who we are.
The top-seeded Warriors fell behind by 13
points in the first quarter after a strong start
by Anthony Davis and Eric Gordon quieted an

announced sellout crowd of 19,596 wearing

golden yellow shirts. But a big burst before
halftime pushed the Warriors ahead, and their
defense clamped down in the closing
moments to put away the pesky Pelicans.
Game 3 of the best-of-seven series is
Thursday night in New Orleans.
Davis had 26 points and 10 rebounds, and
Gordon scored 23 points for a Pelicans team
that played with more poise and passion than

it did in the series opener.

We just have to stick with it, Gordon said.
Were playing the best team in the league
and were fighting tooth and nail, Pelicans
coach Monty Williams added. Our guys are
grouping up on the fly.
In the end, the Warriors were just better
when it mattered most.

COURTESTY OF CHRISTINE WALSH

Mills junior right-hander Daniel Walsh fired a one-hit shutout last week in a critical PAL Lake Division matchup against Crystal Springs.

Walsh keeps Mills on top

Athlete of the Week
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Last weeks baseball showdown between

Mills and Crystal Springs Uplands was
essentially for all the marbles in the
Peninsula Athletic League Lake Division.
The Vikings remain unbeaten in league
play this season after sweeping the twogame series from the Gryphons. And junior
right-hander Daniel Walsh closed the door
with an absolute gem in the series finale.
Walsh fired a one-hit shutout to lead Mills
to a 3-0 shutout. Throughout his commanding effort, Walsh only once allowed the ball
to leave the infield. He recorded seven
strikeouts, 13 groundouts, one popup and
had one would-be base-stealer gunned down

by catcher Matt Pettenato.

For his outstanding outing, Walsh has
been named the San Mateo Daily Journal
Athlete of the Week.
According to Walsh, however, it seemed
like it was going to be anything but a dominant performance during his pregame
warm-ups.
In the bullpen, I couldnt figure out what
I was doing wrong, Walsh said. But I got
out to the mound and, from the first pitch, I
felt better. I just settled in from there.
The one hit Crystal Springs scratched out
came in the second inning when Ben
Leonard threw a two-out flare into right
field.
But Vikings second baseman Robert
Thorgersen making his first start of the

season at second in place of the injured Paul

Johnson picked up his pitcher on the following play by ranging to his left on a
sharp grounder up the middle and shoveling
to shortstop Austin LaDuca for the force.
It was pretty much smooth sailing from
there for Walsh, who recorded his second
complete game of the year.
It has been smooth sailing for the
Vikings throughout PAL Lake Division
play. But when it comes to nonleague
action, it has been a tale of two seasons.
Mills finally recorded its first nonleague
victory of the season Monday with a 3-1
win over Woodside. Prior to that, Mills had
lost all nine of its nonleague contests.

uesday beginning at 3 p.m., the

College of San Mateo softball
team will embark on what most
players and teams can only dream of.
A win over visiting Foothill would put
the Bulldogs, the states top-ranked JC
team for most of the season, in a rareed
group as one of the few teams to complete
a regular season unbeaten. With one more
victory, CSM will have a perfect 35-0
record heading into the state playoffs.
The numbers the Bulldogs have put up
this season have been simply dominant.
In their rst 34 games, they have
outscored their opponents 386-34 and
you dont have to be a math genius to gure out thats an
average of only one
run per game
allowed, and in
fact, the Bulldogs
recorded 17
shutouts.
It takes a little
bit more work to
arrive at CSMs
average runs-pergame scored at a
whopping 11.4.
CSM has played
only 11 games in which it failed to score
in double digits. The last time the
Bulldogs did not score in double gures
was a 6-0 win over West Valley March 31.
While it seems every result has been a
beatdown, the Bulldogs have been in a
number of close games. They beat reigning state champ Sierra College 11-3 and
state power Mt. San Antonio College
(Mt. SAC) 4-3 in February. Then, they
had a stretch in March in which they held
off Northern California power Delta
College 4-3, as well as Coast Conference
foes Hartnell 7-0 and, their closest win of
the season, a 1-0 decision over Santa
Cruzs Cabrillo College.
Since the middle of March, however,
CSM has steamrolled the opposition. The
Bulldogs head into the game against
Foothill having outscored their last three
opponents 58-1 and have already posted

End of an era as McLellan, Sharks part ways

By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN JOSE After seven years of great

regular-season success and playoff disappointments, coach Todd McLellan and the
San Jose Sharks decided it was time for a
change.
The Sharks announced Monday that they had
agreed to part ways with the winningest coach
in franchise history after the team missed the
playoffs for the first time since 2003.
With the Sharks committed to a youth
movement and McLellan having just one

year on his contract, the

two sides agreed it was
time to make a change.
This team is clearly in
a rebuild, McLellan said.
With one year left, heading forward I had to analyze where everything
was going. I felt with
Todd McLellan some of the answers I got
that it was time.
General manager Doug Wilson said
McLellan told him over the weekend that he
felt it was best that he leave. Wilson said he

agreed with the decision. McLellan remains

under contract but can talk to other teams
about potential openings with the Sharks
getting compensation if he signs with
another team.
I think its the right decision for both him
and ourselves as an organization, Wilson
said. We wish him nothing but the best, and
the entire staff nothing but the best. They
gave us some outstanding work, and we will
support where they go and what they can do,
because they are good men.
McLellan had a 311-163-66 regular-season
record with the Sharks, the third best in the

league since he took over before the 2008-09

season. But San Jose finished 12th out of 14
teams in the Western Conference this season
and missed the postseason.
McLellan, who won a Stanley Cup as an
assistant in Detroit, got off to a successful
start in his tenure in San Jose, winning the
Presidents Trophy as the top regular-season
team in 2009. But the Sharks fell in the first
round of the playoffs to Anaheim in another
postseason disappointment for a franchise
full of them.

Over the summer, Walsh pitched his

fifth season with the Junior Cardinal
travel team out of Palo Alto. He even
threw a no-hitter for them last year.
This year he was the opening-day
starter and has since settled into the
No. 2 spot in the rotation behind ace
senior Jordan Ganim.
Now with Mills holding a threegame lead in the Lake Division with
six league games left to play, Walsh
and company are looking forward to
the postseason.
Were in a good stride right now,
Walsh said. We just have to keep our
feet under us and not make anything
else happen.

CSM softball pitcher overcomes disability

One-handed pitcher Lacie Crawford draws inspiration from former MLB great
By Terry Bernal
Most old-school baseball fans are familiar
with the story of Jim Abbott. But no one
knows it quite like Lacie Crawford.
A sophomore pitcher on the College of San
Mateo softball team, Crawford suffers a similar condition as the one famously attributed to
Abbott, who in 1989 became Major League
Baseballs first one-handed pitcher.
Because of a birth defect, Crawfords left
hand is not fully formed. Yet, much in part to
her studying Abbotts creative delivery,
Crawford learned to pitch from a young age.
Like Abbott, Crawford uses her right arm as
both her throwing arm and glove hand by
maneuvering her glove after pitching the ball.
I looked at it as theres nothing holding
him back from doing what he dreams of doing

and I feel the same way with me, Crawford

said. And when I am playing, I do not think
of myself any different. I dont make excuses
for myself. If I know I can do it, then I can do
it. And if I cant do it, I need to find a way to
get it done.
It has been a season like no other for CSM.
Entering into Tuesdays regular-season finale
against Foothill, the Lady Bulldogs have
etched an undefeated 34-0 record. As one of just
two pitchers anchoring CSMs pitching staff,
Crawford has been integral to the success of
the second best pitching staff in the state.
While sophomore Lauren Berriatua has
served as the ace of the Bulldogs staff the
right-hander owns a 22-0 record with a statebest 0.29 ERA Crawford is in the midst of
her hottest pitching streak ever.
Crawford is 12-0 with a 1.43 ERA and hasnt
given up a run over her last 21 innings of

work, including a five-inning no-hitter she

fired April 7 against City College of San
Francisco in a 31-0 CSM victory.
In the beginning of the year I felt like I was
on a roll and then I slumped a couple games,
Crawford said. Now, I feel like Im in a
groove. Im working on my pitches every
game. So Im just trying to keep myself in
this place until the whole season it over.
Crawford is a lifer on the diamond. With two
older siblings who were both athletes, she
was constantly around sports. So, she began
playing tee-ball when she was 4. She graduated to the softball diamond when she was 8.
To help her adjust to her disability,
Crawfords father Troy would show her
videos of Abbot to demonstrate a comparable pitching style. As pitching deliveries

weeks. Tuesday is a day to celebrate the end

of a phenomenal season assuming they
beat Foothill.
As they say, the playoffs are like another
season.
***
If you thought the Peninsula Athletic
League schedules would nally return to
normal, you thought wrong. There is still
one more school district off this week.
The Sequoia Union High School District,
which includes Carlmont, Menlo-Atherton,
Sequoia and Woodside, is the last of the
ve districts that comprises the 17-team
PAL to take its spring break.
Most schools, traditionally, take the
week before or the week after Easter Sunday
off as its annual spring vacation.
That appears to be changing, much to the
chagrin of PAL commissioner Terry
Stogner, who has to juggle the schedules of
all the teams in the league against when

their spring break occurs.

Legally, I cannot schedule (league)
games during that week schools are off. If
they choose to play them, thats up to
them, Stogner said. If they could get
together and have a common spring break,
it would be good [for scheduling purposes].
And lets not forget all those West Bay
Athletic League baseball teams that now
play in the PAL. As private schools, they
are not part of a school district and can
independently choose whichever week they
want to take off.
As such, it can be a little confusing trying to gure out the standings. Take the
PAL Bay Division standings, for example.
Heading into this week, Burlingame,
Carlmont and Terra Nova all have three
losses, but the Scots have played 10 games
while the Panthers and Tigers have played
only eight.

In boys tennis, Aragon, Burlingame and

Hillsdale have two matches left to play
while Half Moon Bay and San Mateo have
one. The rest of the Bay Division has completed its league schedule.
The good news is, other than boys tennis, the rest of the PAL races in all the
other sports have at least another two
weeks before playoffs and championships
are determined. Those baseball teams will
catch up this week and everyone should
have an equal amount of games played
heading into the nal two weeks of the regular season.
And in the case of the PAL Bay Division,
it should be one heck of a nish.

And therein lies the crux of the 2015 season for the CSM softball team: if they nish the regular season undefeated and fall

Bulls top Bucks, DUBS

up 2-0 in series

Continued from page 11

By Andrew Seligman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHICAGO Jimmy Butler set a playoff

career-high for the second straight game
with 31 points, and the Chicago Bulls beat
the Milwaukee Bucks 9182 on Monday night to
take a 2-0 lead in their
first-round series.
After scoring 25 points
in Game 1, Butler trumped
that with another terrific
performance. He was at
his best down the stretch,
Jimmy Butler scoring 14 points in the
fourth quarter.
Chicagos Derrick Rose scored all of his
15 points in the second half after dominating in the series opener.
Pau Gasol added 11 points and 16
rebounds and Mike Dunleavy Jr. scored 12
points as the third-seeded Bulls grabbed a
commanding lead in the series.
Game 3 is Thursday at Milwaukee.
Khris Middleton led the sixth-seeded
Bucks with 22 points, and Michael CarterWilliams scored 12.

Ducks 5, Jets 4
WINNIPEG, Manitoba Rickard Rakell
scored at 5:12 of overtime to lift the
Anaheim Ducks over the Winnipeg Jets 5-4

Anaheim leads the series 3-0.
Jakob Silfverberg scored and added two
assists for the Ducks in regulation. Ryan
Kesler, Corey Perry and Cam Fowler also
scored for Anaheim.

Rangers 2, Penguins 1
PITTSBURGH Henrik Lundqvist
stopped 23 shots and New York regained
control of its first-round series against

just 37.8 for the game.

Davis still pulled the Pelicans within one
in the final minutes before Green and center
Andrew Bogut Golden States defensive
stoppers helped the Warriors shut down
New Orleans again.
Thompson converted a running bank shot
over Gordon to start a three-point play, and
Bogut followed with a two-handed slam to
give Golden State a 97-86 lead with 1:02 left,
fending off a tougher-than-expected fight
from the Wests eighth seed.
We know were going to have turnovers or
lapses. But its the defense that won us the
game, Thompson said.
The Warriors have won 20 straight games
and 41 of 43 at home this season. Their last
loss at Oracle Arena came against Chicago in
overtime on Jan. 27.
New Orleans shook of all those marks
and all the pregame chatter to nearly pull
off a playoff surprise.
Williams riled up the Warriors vocal fan
base before the morning shootaround, saying
the decibel level at Oracle Arena might not be
legal. Williams later said he meant it more as
a compliment and didnt mean to suggest the
Warriors were breaking any rules.
Fans seemed to pounce on Williams words.
Chants of War-ri-ors! drowned out the
Pelicans during pregame introductions, but
they figured out a way to control the crowd:
get off to a fast start.

SHARKS
Continued from page 11
The Sharks then made back-to-back trips
to the conference finals the next two seasons, but won one playoff series in
McLellans final four seasons.
There were a lot of good things we did
here, McLellan said. We put up like six or
seven banners in the building. Were really
proud of that.
Last seasons loss was the most devastating. San Jose took a 3-0 series lead over rival
Los Angeles only to lose the final four
games, becoming just the fourth NHL team to
blow such a lead.
McLellan questioned after the series
whether his message was still getting
through to the players. Wilson kept
McLellan on for another year to oversee a
shift to younger players but the team never

KYLE TERADA/USA TODAY SPORTS

Klay Thompson, right, scored 26 points in the Warriors Game 2 win Monday at Oracle Arena.
New Orleans made five of its first six shots
and got big contributions from Gordon and
Davis to go ahead 28-17 after the first quarter. Reserve guard Leandro Barbosa (12
points) and the backups brought the
Warriors back in the second quarter, though
Pelicans super sub Norris Cole countered
with some big shots of his own.
Of course, the Pelicans struggled to corral
Curry and Thompson in the key moments.
They helped the Warriors outscore New
Orleans 38-24 in the second quarter, with

Curry capping the run with a deep 3-pointer

to give Golden State a 55-52 halftime lead.
The Warriors went up by nine early in the
third quarter, and the teams were tied 71-all
entering the fourth.
We know that we can beat this team,
Davis said. We were right there. They made
shots, and we didnt.
The last time Golden State took a 2-0 lead
in a playoff series was in the first round
against Utah in 1989. The Warriors swept the
three-game series.

truly got over the sting of the playoff loss.

Wilson talked about the need to take a step
backward with a youth movement and new
leadership before being able to reach the ultimate goal of the franchises first Stanley Cup
championship.
Those comments rankled some of the players. Star Joe Thornton was stripped of his
captaincy and then disagreed at the start of
training camp with Wilsons assessment that
the Sharks were a tomorrow team.
There are times that you probably dont
think before I speak, but its coming from
the heart and its trying to find solutions,
Wilson said. We always hold ourselves
accountable. Youve got to look in the mirror
first before you start evaluating other people. Again, thats what were doing right
now.
Outside of a stretch of nine wins in 10
games
between
Thanksgiving
and
Christmas, the Sharks never got on a roll
this season. They frequently lost to teams at
the bottom of the standings and won just 19
of 41 home games. They struggled on the

penalty kill and defense, got subpar seasons

from forwards Patrick Marleau, Tomas Hertl
and Matt Nieto and fell apart in losing eight
straight home games in February.
The Sharks were able to incorporate
younger players like Chris Tierney, Mirco
Mueller, Melker Karlsson and Barclay
Goodrow into the lineup and have the ninth
pick in the draft and plenty of cap room to
make more additions this offseason.
Were trending upward and were going to
bounce back very quickly, Wilson said.
What Id like to see us do is start another 10year run of making the playoffs.
Wilson said many of the evaluations on
what to do with the roster wont be made until
after a new coach is hired. Wilson said he will
take his time in the process but does want a
coach that will divvy up playing time on
merit and be a good teacher to young players.
Assistants Jim Johnson and Jay Woodcroft
and video coordinator Brett Heimlich have
also been let go. Associate coach Larry
Robinson has moved into his full-time role
of director of player development.

Hall of Fame 49ers lineman Bob St. Clair dies at 84

By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Hall of Fame offensive tackle Bob St. Clair, a five-time Pro
Bowler with a big personality who played
all 11 of his seasons with his hometown San
Francisco 49ers, died Monday. He was 84.
The Pro Football Hall of Fame, the 49ers
and the University of San Francisco
announced Monday that St. Clair had died.
A 6-foot-9 right tackle known for his
speed, toughness and uncanny blocking
ability in the passing and running games,
St. Clair was a third-round draft pick by San
Francisco in 1953.
He was inducted into the Hall of Fame in
1990 27 years after his final season of
1963 and was nearly as famous for eating
raw meat as he was for his football skills.

He shared with the Hall

of Fames web site in a
2000 online chat how he
received his The Geek
nickname.
Because of my eating
habits! There was a
movie that came out with
Tyrone Power where he
Bob St. Clair was locked in a cage and
called geek, he said.
They used to throw live chickens in there
and thats where it came from ... However, I
only let my friends call me that!
Bob was a true hero of the game and represented the many great values that the game
teaches. He was a dedicated teammate, a true
competitor, and a passionate and caring
leader, to his community as well as his team,
Hall of Fame President David Baker said.

We are deeply saddened by his passing but

he will be forever remembered in Canton as
one of the all-time greats of the game. All of
us who love the great game of football stand
on the shoulders of men like Bob St. Clair.
The 49ers retired his No. 79 uniform at
Candlestick Park in 2001.
Huge loss for the 49ersFamily, 49ers
CEO Jed York posted on Twitter. We will
miss you Bob St. Clair RIP Thanks for so
many memories.
St. Clair played for the University of San
Franciscos unbeaten 1951 team that took a
stand against racism. He was one of eight
future NFL players on that Dons team,
which the school remembered that its
supreme triumph came in choosing not to
accept an invitation to a bowl game under
the condition the team played without its
two African-American players, Ollie

Oakland Athletics beat the Los Angeles
Angels 6-3 on Monday night in the opener
of a four-game series.
Oakland right-hander Kendall Graveman was
staked to a 5-3 lead in his third major league
start, but lasted just three-plus innings.
Manager Bob Melvin pulled him after he
walked Erick Aybar and C.J. Cron to open the
fourth and ran his pitch count up to 73.
Dan Otero (1-1) bailed out Graveman by
retiring the next three batters and the four-year
veteran reliever allowed one hit over a careerhigh four innings (42 pitches) for the win. He
has not allowed a run in 13 career appearances
against the Angels, spanning 19 2/3 innings.
Evan Scribner pitched a perfect eighth and
Tyler Clippard got three outs for his first
American League save and 35th of his career.
Shoemaker (2-1) threw 68 pitches in threeplus innings, giving up five runs and seven
hits while retiring only eight of the 18 batters
he faced. The right-hander had won his previous nine decisions, beginning with a threeinning relief stint against Boston in a 19inning, 5-4 victory last Aug. 9.
Vogt gave the Athletics a 4-2 lead in the third

with his fourth homer, driving an 0-2 pitch

deep into the right-field seats after a leadoff
double by Sam Fuld and an infield hit by Mark
Canha. Eight of Fulds first 14 hits have gone
for extra bases, including three triples.
The Angels scored an unearned run in the
bottom half when Albert Pujols hit the ball to
left field over Canhas head, after Mike Trout
reached on Semiens fielding error at shortstop
and stole second. Semien, the Athletics No. 9
hitter, got that run back with in the fourth with
a towering drive into the lower seats in the leftfield corner on Shoemakers final pitch.
The As didnt get another hit until Eric
Sogard led off the ninth with a double against
Fernando Salas. Fuld drove him in with a sacrifice fly.
Ike Davis drove in Oaklands first run with a
bases-loaded sacrifice fly. The Angels responded in the bottom of the first with a two-out,
two-run single by David Freese, who continued
to second on the throw to the plate from center
fielder Fuld and was thrown out by Vogt.

USF awarded each member of that team an
honorary doctorate degree in 2005 for all
the players did to take a stand against
racism in what was considered a symbolic
victory in college football.
On behalf of the entire USF community,
I would like to extend my deepest condolences to the St. Clair family on the passing
of one of the greatest Dons of all time, USF
athletic director Scott Sidwell said.
Bob was a great San Franciscan who
along with his 51 Dons teammates,
embodied the character and values of our
university by taking a courageous stand
against racism in the early 50s. He will be
greatly missed.
A longtime resident of Sonoma County,
St. Clair was born on Feb. 18, 1931, in San
Francisco.

Sports brief
Desisa wins 119th Boston Marathon,
Rotich takes womens race
BOSTON Lelisa Desisa of Ethiopia won
his second Boston Marathon on Monday,
two years after he donated the medal from
his first title to the city in the memory of
bombing victims.
Kenyas Carolina Rotich won the womens
race in an unofficial 2 hours, 24 minutes, 55
seconds, outsprinting Mare Dibaba down
Boylston Street to win by 4 seconds.
When Desisa won the 2013 race, there wasnt much time to celebrate. Hours after he
crossed the finish line, two bombs exploded
on Boylston Street and turned his victory into
an afterthought. As the city mourned the three
killed and 260 wounded in the explosions, he
returned to Boston to donate the medal.
Two years after the explosions, the race
took a tentative step back toward normal.
American Desiree Linden was fourth

Obama: Ebola-fighting goal is to prevent new cases

By Jim Kuhnhenn
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Citing significant

gains in fighting the Ebola outbreak in
West Africa, President Obama declared
Wednesday that the international goal now
is to prevent any new cases of the deadly
virus in the afflicted region.
Weve seen major progress, Obama said
during a White House meeting with the presidents of Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone to
get a handle on the current situation.
He pointed out that last week there were
fewer than 40 cases in the region, with no
cases reported in Liberia. Ebola has killed
more than 10,000 people in the yearlongplus outbreak.
Now were focused on the shared goal,
and that is getting to zero, he said.
The three presidents Ellen Johnson
Sirleaf of Liberia, Alpha Conde of Guinea
and Ernest Bai Koroma of Sierra Leone
were in the United States for meetings with
the International Monetary Fund and the
World Bank to help confront the economic
crises created by the disease in their respective countries.
The World Health Organization last week
said the outbreak still qualifies as an international emergency even though the num-

ber of cases has plummeted. At Ebolas peak

last year, health officials were reporting
hundreds of new cases a week.
We cant be complacent, Obama said.
This virus is unpredictable, we have to be
vigilant and the international community
has to be fully engaged in a partnership
with these three countries until there are no
cases of Ebola in these countries.
On Capitol Hill, top government health
officials echoed the presidents message,
saying that while recent efforts fighting
Ebola have been encouraging, the threat is
far from over,.
In testimony before a House panel,
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
Director Thomas Frieden said the epidemic
in Liberia is under control, and that a similar reduction in cases has been seen in Sierra
Leone. Guinea has made progress, too, but
still faces challenges, said Frieden.
National Institutes of Health infectious
diseases chief Dr. Anthony Fauci said work
being done on a vaccine is also showing
promise. So far, more than 1,100 people in
Liberia have been enrolled in the clinical
trial.
It is safe and it is inducing a response
that one would predict would be protective,
although obviously you need to have field
proof of that, Fauci told lawmakers on a
health appropriations subcommittee.

Stanford, Harvard researchers to share $500K medical prize

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALBANY, N.Y. Two scientists whose

work on modern research technologies is
expected to speed the pace of medical discoveries will share one of the richest prizes in
medicine and science next month, officials
at a New York hospital said Monday.
The $500,000 Albany Medical Center
Prize in Biomedicine and Biomedical
Research for 2015 will be awarded to Dr. Karl
Deisseroth of Stanford University and
Xiaoliang Sunney Xie of Harvard University
and Peking University, where he is a visiting
professor and director of the Biodynamics
Optical Imaging Center.
Deisseroth is a professor of bioengineer-

ing and psychiatry and

behavioral science. His
work includes developing
imaging technology that
allows brain researchers
to gain greater insight
into a wide range of psychiatric diseases and
other conditions, including depression, bipolar
Karl Deisseroth disorder, Parkinsons disease and addiction.
Xie is a professor of chemistry and chemical biology whose imaging work has
advanced the field of single-cell biology,
yielding new information on how individual
molecules can affect cellular life and human

Sunney Xie

diseases. His experiments made it possible to

examine
previously
invisible single molecules in living cells.
These two prolific scientists saw a need for new
technology to help move
their research forward and
then actually developed
it, said Dr. Vincent

Verdile, dean of Albany Medical College and

chairman of the prize committee.
Researchers worldwide are now using their
techniques, including novel imaging and
sequencing, which are fast providing
insights into previously mysterious biological functions, especially those in the
brain.
The award has been given annually since
2001 to those who have altered the course of
medical research.

STORM
Continued from page 1
be in the middle of a four-year continuing
drought, a big storm could come any time,
San Mateo County Supervisor Dave Pine
said.
Rain totals tend to spike up or down in
California, Pine said.
Even though we are in a severe drought,
it is feasible we could have record rain next
year, Pine said.
As much as 70 percent of the losses in the
Bay Area, expected to top $10 billion, will
be concentrated in low-lying Peninsula and
Silicon Valley areas, according to the
report.
The report was unveiled at an event in San
Francisco Monday attended by Pine and
officials with the Santa Clara Valley Water
District, California Coastal Conservancy
and other agencies.
The report, however, does not take into
account the damages expected from sea level
rise, which some experts estimate will rise

RAISES
Continued from page 1
sides find common ground said he was hopeful the deal would go through.
Im cautiously optimistic, I think the
agreement should be approved, said Ara
Prigian, chapter services consultant with
CTA.
Members of the teachers union are expected to vote on whether to accept the proposed contract prior to the deal going
before the board, and Prigian said he
believes most of the teachers union would
agree with the terms.
Teachers would be granted the percent
raise they desired, and the district would
increase benefit contributions by $1,200,
under the tentative agreement which was

by 3 feet in the Bay Area by the end of the

century, causing billions more in damages.
In the event of an extreme storm, San
Mateo County will be one of the hardest hit
regions in the Bay Area. To avoid devastating consequences to our economy, infrastructure and communities, we must take
action now to reduce flooding risks. If ever
there was a case where an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, this is it,
Pine wrote in the report.
Most of the damage, about $6 billion,
would be in Santa Clara County, according
to the report.
Silicon Valley would be hardest hit by a
once-in-a-100-year storm but the damage
would be severe along the Bays thousands
of acres of waterfront land, where companies such as Facebook and Google employ
hundreds of thousands of workers. An estimated 355,000 residents live in the area
where key economic and civic infrastructure
is located, including ports, airports and
water, energy, sewage and transportation
facilities, according to the report.
The report was assembled in part by Sean
Randolph and Adrian Covert in response to
increasingly dramatic weather swings as the

effects of climate change become more pronounced, according to BAC.

It relies on existing scientific models that
envision an atmospheric river dumping
the equivalent of 10 Mississippi Rivers on
the region over 10 days, causing widespread
flooding and disruption to road and air travel.
Inaction could cost our economy dearly.
The $10.4 billion is just a snapshot. The
economic consequences of a mega storm,
with a magnitude and impact comparable to
Hurricane Katrina or Superstorm Sandy,
could double when the regional effects of
flooding in the Delta are factored in, said
Dr. Sean Randolph, one of the reports
authors and senior director of the BAC
Economic Institute.
The largest losses in Santa Clara County
will be incurred in and near downtown San
Jose from riverine flooding. Losses in San
Mateo County will occur primarily in Foster
City, San Mateo and Redwood City from
coastal and riverine flooding, according to
the report.
San Mateo County does have a Flood
Control District but it only governs Colma,
San Bruno and San Francisquito creeks.

The district also generates little tax revenue from Colma and San Bruno residents
and the about $40 million in improvements
to San Francisquito Creek is being mostly
paid for by the Santa Clara Valley Water
District.
San Mateo County has fallen behind other
counties in the Bay Area, Pine said, in
addressing flood control.
There is a need to have a meaningful
flood control agency that could deal with
and fund some of these projects in county,
Pine told the Daily Journal.
He either wants to see the countys district
expanded or for a joint powers authority to
form to address and fund flood prevention
measures.
The key is to recognize the risk to the
Peninsula related to a possible 100-year
storm, have a flood control agency in place
with real governance and then find a way to
fund improvements, Pine said.

signed by administration and members of

the Millbrae Education Association April
10.
The two sides announced in January they
had reached an impasse in negotiations, and
agreed to enter contract mediation talks,
stemming from disagreements over how
much teacher pay should be hiked.
Teachers had been asking for a 4 percent
pay increase as well as the district hiking
payments toward health and welfare premiums by $2,000, while the district at the
time offered a 2 percent raise, and an $827
one-time payment to the benefit fund.
Following meetings with mediators in
February, Prigian said the teachers union
was prepared to go to the fact-finding stage
of contract talks, which typically indicates
the conflicting sides believe negotiations
are no longer taking place in good faith.
Recently, however, Prigian said members

of the bargaining team began to favor terms

of the proposed contract, which led to him
working with attorneys from the school district to hammer out the details of the deal
over a couple days.
We were going nowhere, and we were
pretty far apart at a point, but we ended up
resolving it, he said.
Throughout negotiations, officials have
said they agree teachers deserve a raise, and
were hopeful that a resolution could be
reached, so long as the district is also able
to preserve enough money in the budget for
restoring other programs and services cut
during leaner times.
Should the contract be finalized, it would
be the second raise teachers have received in
as many years. Teachers last year accepted a
4 percent raise, as well as a 1.5 percent pay
increase to health and welfare benefits.
According to a report from the California

Department of Education, teachers in

Millbrae made an average of roughly
$69, 100 last year. The average annual
income for elementary school teachers in
San Mateo County last year was roughly
$73,900 per year.
Teachers in the northern region of the
county, including Burlingame, South San
Francisco, San Mateo-Foster City and San
Bruno earned an average of about $65,900
last year, according to the report.
The one-year agreement has already been
approved by the San Mateo County Office
of Education.

Waivers may give

next president way
out of health feuds
By Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Federal regulations of the ingredients in cosmetics and personal-care products havent been updated for 75 years.

Lawmakers seek FDA review of

ingredients used in cosmetics
By Kevin Freking
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Two U.S. senators

introduced legislation
Monday that would require the
Food and Drug Administration to
evaluate and report on some of the
ingredients used in cosmetics and
personal-care products such as
shampoo and skin cream.
The bill would require the FDA to
investigate at least five ingredients each year. The reviews would
lead to the agency providing guidance about whether ingredients
should continue to be used, and if
so, at what concentration levels.
Democratic
Sen.
Dianne
Feinstein of California and
Republican Sen. Susan Collins of
Maine, the bills sponsors, said
that federal regulations of the
ingredients in cosmetics and per-

sonal-care products havent been

updated for 75 years.
From shampoo to lotion, the
use of personal care products is
widespread, however, there are
very few protections in place to
ensure their safety, Feinstein said
in a news release.
Most bills introduced dont
make it into law. But Feinstein and
Collins have support from a wide
array of consumer groups and companies, including Johnson &
Johnson, Revlon and Proctor &
Gamble. A trade association representing more than 600 companies
is also supporting the bill.
The Environmental Working
Group said that the current regulatory system allows companies to
put potentially dangerous chemicals in personal-care products
without having to prove they are
safe.

The group, which maintains a

database of 68,000 products to
help consumers, said the bill was
long overdue.
The bill also stipulates the first
five chemicals the FDA would be
required to review, including a
form of formaldehyde used in hairsmoothing treatments and a chemical that mimics estrogen.
Under the legislation, the FDA
would have the authority to order
product recalls or to require warning labels. Companies would also
be required to provide contact
information to consumers and to
report any serious adverse events
to the FDA within 15 days of
receiving a report.
The FDAs investigation of the
chemicals would be paid for
through a user fee for similar to
what is paid by manufacturers of
medications and medical devices.

WASHINGTON Republican or
Democrat, the next president will
have the chance to remake the
nations health care overhaul without fighting Congress.
The law signed by President
Barack Obama includes a waiver
that, starting in 2017, would let
states take federal dollars now
invested in the overhaul and use
them to redesign their own health
care systems.
States could not repeal some
things, such as the requirement that
insurance companies cover people
with health problems. But they
could replace the laws unpopular
mandate that virtually everyone in
the country has health insurance,
provided the alternative worked reasonably well.
A Democrat in the White House
probably would use the waiver to
build bridges to Republican governors and state legislators opposed
to the law. The state innovation
provision, Section 1332 of the
nearly 1,000-page law, has gotten
little public attention.
But you would be hard pressed to
find a state that doesnt know what
Section 1332 is, said Trish Riley,
executive director the National
Academy for State Health Policy, a
nonpartisan forum for state policymakers. It provides some opportunity for taking the rough edges off
the Affordable Care Act, as the law
is known.
For a Republican president, state
waivers could be the fallback
option to avoid the political cost of
dismantling Obamas law and disrupting or jeopardizing coverage
for millions of newly insured people, not to mention the upheaval

If you were a Republican

on record as opposing or
wanting to repeal the ACA
... then you could say your
second preference would
be to use this provision to
go down a completely
different road.
Stuart Butler, a
health policy expert

for insurers, hospitals and doctors.

If you were a Republican on
record as opposing or wanting to
repeal the ACA, but really felt deep
down that you couldnt accomplish
that even as president, then you
could say your second preference
would be to use this provision to go
down a completely different road,
said Stuart Butler, a health policy
expert
at
the
nonpartisan
Brookings Institution.
Butler, who was with the conservative Heritage Foundation for 35
years, has long been a voice for
Republican thinking on health care
policy. The short answer is, this
presents a tremendous opportunity
for either party, he said.
The state waiver was the idea of
Oregon Democratic Sen. Ron
Wyden, who has a record of crossing party lines in search of ways to
tackle health care costs and coverage.
Waivers would not be a blank
check.
In addition to preserving the
health care laws protection for people with health problems, states
would have to cover about the same
number of residents while providing comprehensive benefits and
financial safeguards against ruinous
costs.

objective. Unfortunately its a bad
drought, its a difficult situation were
in right now.

Fleshing out
landmark mandates
The public has until Wednesday to
comment on the water boards proposal, which was amended after it considered nearly 250 comments that included fears the previous framework was
unfair and unrealistic. Another revision will be released April 28 before
the board takes a final vote at its May
5-6 meeting.
Justin Skarb, government and community relations manager with the
California Water Service Company,
said the water boards changes were
an important step in making sure
youve got more individualized
requirements for each of those varying
areas across the state and taking circumstances into account such as climate, lot size, population, rainfall;
all those are included when you expand
tiers.
Although a number of local cities
and utilities have either achieved or
are close to hitting their conservation
targets, others have a ways to go.
Its almost like no matter where
youre at, everyone has to cut back by
maybe 5 percent or more roughly. Its
a little bit more for all communities
except for those communities with
very large lawns and water usage;
theyre going to have to make significant changes, Sandkulla said.
The state considered summer 2014
water use to categorize different cities
and utilities into conservation tiers
that outline needing to cut 2013 levels
by either 8 percent, 12 percent, 16
percent, 20 percent, 24 percent, 28
percent, 32 percent or 36 percent.

Conserving in San Mateo County

The water board also outlined how
much various agencies have already
cut back, illustrating whos been
adapting to the drought the longest.
Cities or utilities that have already
met and must main their conservation
target include the San Francisco
Public Utilities Commission and the
California Water Service Company
South San Francisco having both
reached an 8 percent reduction.
Cities that have exceeded their targets include San Bruno, which has hit
its 8 percent goal by conserving 9
percent; Daly City and Redwood City,
which are required to cut back 8 percent and have each reduced 14 percent;

Menlo Park, which has reached 27 percent and is ordered to reduce by 16 percent; and Burlingame, which has met
its 16 percent target by conserving 17
percent since 2013.
The biggest guzzlers in the county
who must reduce by 36 percent are
Hillsborough residents and those in
Cal Waters Bear Gulch District; which
includes Atherton, Woodside and
Portola Valley as well as unincorporated portions of Redwood City and
the county.
While Hillsborough residents have
already cut back 25 percent and are on
their way to meeting the states highest target, Bear Gulch customers have
only reduced their 2013 levels by 11
percent.
Sandkulla said previous years
efforts wont cut it and those with
large landscaped properties must make
serious concessions.
The biggest thing we can all do,
assuming everyone cut back their
indoor water use last year and shortened their showers and changed out
their toilets, reducing your outdoor
water use is the best available single
opportunity for savings, Sandkulla
said.
Hillsboroughs Assistant City
Manager Kathy Leroux said the town
is continuing to work on how to
implement the regulations and shes
confident continuing to educate residents will offer results.
I think our numbers show how well
our residents have done already at 25
percent. So Im not saying achieving
36 percent will be easy, but our residents have always come through during drought times and done the right
thing, Leroux said.
Skarb said Cal Water is preparing
regulations and enforcement mandates
but will aim to help its biggest users
like those in the Bear Gulch district by
offering incentives, rebates and educating consumers.
The states proposed regulations
also reduced conservation mandates
for several communities including
those on the coast; Foster City and
Cal Waters Mid Peninsula District,
which primarily serves San Mateo and
San Carlos.
The Coastside County Water
District; which serves Half Moon Bay,
El Granada, Princeton as well as at
Skylawn Funeral Home and Memorial
Park and the Ocean Colony Golf
Course; has achieved 7 percent of its 8
percent conservation goal.
As part of the more specific regulations, the state suggests residents
make up for aggregate cutbacks that
cannot be achieved by commercial
customers such as a golf course or
cemetery. Coastside District Manager
David Dickson said the utility is
already very close to the conservation standard largely as a result of res-

idential conservation.
The Estero Municipal Improvement
District, which serves Foster City,
received some reprieve in the new regulations as its now required to cut
back 12 percent instead of 20 percent.
Foster City Public Works Director
Jeff Moneda said hes still disappointed the state isnt basing the tiers on
earlier years data as residents have cut
back 40 percent since 2010, but just 5
percent since 2013.
Moneda said hes confident continuing to educate customers will assist in
meeting conservation goals, but
remains concerned about the states
vague enforcement reporting requirements.
Currently, no Foster City resident
has been issued fines for failing to
adhere to conservation requirements
but the city has confronted a few individuals who have failed to repair leaking irrigation systems. If written
requests dont succeed, water wasters
could receive fines between $100 and
$500, Moneda said.
The Foster City Council met
Monday night to review drought regulations and discuss sending additional
input to the water board.

Next steps
The state is asking for public input
through Wednesday while it quickly
crafts the first drought mandates as it
must adhere to the time sensitivity of
the looming drought.
Sandkulla said her agency remains
concerned about Browns suggestion
to create tiered pricing structures
aimed at promoting conservation
which could conflict with Proposition
218 that limits agencies to charging
for services based on costs, not penalization.
Overall, Sandkulla said shes appreciative of the states changes and
Dickson added even though some
requirements may have been lessened
for county residents, the need to conserve is as prevalent as ever.
I dont think it substantially
changes the challenge we face,
Dickson said. We still have to figure
out how to use less water and we all
should expect that the expectations
for conservation will ultimately be
stepped up unless we get some relief.
And that doesnt seem likely to happen within this calendar year.
